This is the gist of the "discipline" method. A qualified elite soldier should be controlled by military discipline and the strong is respected. At this time, the mentality needs to change slightly.
At this time, there were three young men who had their upper bodies stripped off and their hands tied to copper pillars. They were yelling at the camp city at the top of their lungs. At this time, they had already fucked all the eighteen generations of Chen Hai's ancestors. …
Although the Xiyuan Army has a general administration office, when the commander is vacant, it is only responsible for logistical support and has no right to interfere with the training below. This also provides great convenience for Chen Hai's strict military management.
Du Yong, Ran Hu and others, who are disciples of Taiwei Sect like Chen Hai, would not refute Chen Hai face to face and prevent Chen Hai from stepping down. They would just hold the new drill manual in their hands and remain silent; other training military officers, There were even many disciples from other counties and sects who asked Qin Zong. There was no need to give Chen Hai any face. Some people stood up and questioned on the spot:
The so-called drill manual, Chen Hai wants to let the "rules" penetrate into the blood of every Kou slave soldier through repeated torture of many details and countless trivial daily matters, so that it is possible to form the habit of obedience from subordinates to superiors. , thus making the entire army seem like one person.
The military attachés took the newly transcribed drill manual and the ink was not yet dry and left, while Du Yong and Ran Hu lingered at the end.
All parties did not have high expectations for the combat power of the Xiyuan New Army from the beginning, let alone expect to be on par with the real elites of the Tiger and Ben Army. Precisely because of this, the Taiwei Mansion organized and trained the Jiudu New Army. There is very little interference in matters, and it can even be said to be laissez-faire.
Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji had great doubts about Chen Hai's ability to organize the Yidu New Army. However, based on the current formation plan of the Xiyuan New Army, neither of them could serve as the commander of the Yidu New Army. The training officer can only place his hopes on Chen Hai.
For all those who violated the training manual, whether they deliberately violated it or failed to do so after repeated corrections, whether they were old soldiers, newly selected slave soldiers, or even military attachés, Chen Hai had formulated strict punishment rules.
Through all kinds of "torture", Chen Hai is not trying to polish off the edges of these unruly prisoners and slaves, but to turn them into a group of wolves that hide their ferocious wildness deep in their bones and obey the leader of the wolf. , rather than chaotic beasts doing their own thing.
The biggest problem faced by Chen Hai is that the eight thousand slave soldiers are unruly by nature. They are not afraid of anything. If they fight alone, they are all good characters who are strong and fierce. They are ferocious beasts with exposed cruelty. But if Formed into an army, they are actually a ragtag group that is easily killed and collapsed by elite divisions.
Writing a new camp and drill manual was not a difficult task. Chen Hai had already thought about it. Three days later, Chen Hai summoned Tu Ziji, Zhao Rong, Du Yong, Ran Hu, Wu Jinglin and other military attachés to his big tent. The newly compiled pamphlet was distributed to everyone for reference.
In fact, the future of the Xiyuan New Army was destined to be unpredictable from the moment it was born. It may fall victim to the imperial power at any time. It is impossible for the eight clans in Jingjun to hand over the truly elite and brave men controlled by the clan. , so the physical foundation of the new soldiers accepted by the other eight capitals is much worse than the heavy prisoners and Kou slaves sent to the seventh capital's new army.
"Is it really necessary for the bedding to be folded so neatly? And the main responsibility of us officers is really to check every day whether the bedding is folded neatly by the people below, and to see whether the generals and soldiers are walking in a straight and straight way. Is there something overqualified?" Tu Ziji also asked a little uncontrollably.
In fact, most of the 8,000 Kou Nu recruits sent by the Taiwei Mansion from various counties were from gangsters. Even though not many of them actually had a foundation in cultivation, they were strong and had good foundation.
The first thing Chen Hai wants to do is to work hard on the camp affairs, let them learn to fold the bedding as neatly as tofu cubes, let them spend a lot of time on queue drills in the early stage, and let them turn every step , step forward, we must follow the rules and prohibitions...
What the words meant was that if Chen Hai's explanation did not satisfy him, he would be the first to stand up and object to training generals according to the new rules.
"The soldiers of the Seventh Capital are complex and rebellious by nature. It is difficult to form an army according to the drill laws promulgated by the Taiwei Mansion. The only way to do extraordinary things is to do extraordinary things. And this drill manual of mine boils down to one point. Above the two words 'discipline'. Discipline means rules and precepts. In three to six months, these unruly recruits should be able to learn from all the details of sitting, standing, walking, eating, sleeping and camping. The word ' is engraved and penetrated into their bone marrow and blood, which can be called the foundation for becoming an elite teacher. Without this foundation, no matter how good the martial arts body training, shield, halberd, and archery training are, they are just a rabble that refuses to obey the rules. . You have to believe me now. If you don’t see results within two months, it won’t be too late for you to come back and refute me.”
Although the disciples selected by the academy are all the elite among the young generation in the counties and are the proud sons of the various sects, there are not many who actually have the experience of leading an army in combat.
The punishment was light at first, mainly to familiarize the superiors and subordinates with the new training rules. On the fifteenth day, caning began.
Dong Ning, Chen Qing and others, as members of the accompanying disciples, took royal chariots and horses into the West Garden and arrived at the foot of Fujiao Mountain. They saw four 156-meter-high pillars standing in front of the camp gate built by logging. The Panlong copper pillar has been impregnated and solidified with a thick layer of purple-black plasma.
"Okay then." Du Yong and Ran Hu said doubtfully, then took the new training manual and left the tent.
Chen Hai could also see that Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji still had distrust in their eyes. They must have had to support him because of the instructions of the mysterious person behind the scenes, and he smiled helplessly in his heart.
"To prepare and train the new army, the Taiwei Mansion has a code of conduct to follow. The new method practiced by Captain Chen is too contrary to the code of conduct. The general cannot see the possibility of training eight thousand people into an elite within half a year. Please also ask The captain made it clear."
Chen Hai did not look at anyone else, while Shen Yi looked at Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji.
The new drill manual compiled by Chen Hai was compiled by combining the formation drill and camp management that he was familiar with on Earth, combined with the flag-passing system of the Taiwei Mansion.
They would not openly compete with Chen Hai. Even if Du Yong was dissatisfied with Chen Hai, he could not forget that they were both Hexi disciples. However, they were really confused about the new training manual. Seeing that there were only Tu Ziji and Tu Ziji in the big tent, Zhao Rong, Zhou Jun, Wu Meng and other direct descendants of Chen Hai could not help but ask their doubts:
"Practice according to this manual. Every day, you only have to watch every soldier sit, stand, and stand. You even have to take care of eating, drinking, and drinking. The martial arts training is reduced to one hour a day, and the skills such as shield, spear, and shooting are also reduced. With only superficial training and no mention of the most important battle formation drills in the training code, can the Seventh Capital really become an army within half a year?"
Chen Hai required many military attachés to familiarize themselves with the new training manual within three days. However, the training of the Seventh Capital New Army in the camp must be strictly carried out in accordance with the manual. He will lead the soldiers of the Guard Battalion to personally supervise The implementation is not in place, and the punishment details written in the second half of the manual are also extremely detailed and severe.
Otherwise, one or two new soldiers who disobeyed orders would be executed with a stick in three to five days. Chen Hai would have been impeached and punished long ago without waiting for the reputation of cruelty to spread.
Although Chen Hai had a record of success, his surprise attack on Chishan City was too much like a gambler's style. Even though there were Kou slave soldiers and disciple camps organized and trained in Yulong Mountain, they were only three to five hundred in size.
…
The Taiwei Mansion said that it was laissez-faire, but regular inspections of the new army's training were indispensable.
At this time, more people still have the mentality of watching a good show to see how Chen Hai will step down in half a year.
"The new training rules established by the Captain of Chariots and Cavalry were determined after many discussions with the two of us. They seem to be different from the training rules. However, if the training fails after half a year, the responsibility will be borne by the three of us. You Just follow the rules!" Zhao Rong could only bite the bullet and stand up to support Chen Hai.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
In other words, all the military attachés present stood up to oppose Chen Hai, Zhao Rong, and Tu Ziji's arbitrariness. However, among the hundreds of military attachés, more than 20 of them were disciples of the Taiwei Sect. No matter how confused they were, It is impossible for him to openly stand up and play against Chen Hai at this time.
What's more, Chen Hai is the one he likes.
The new training method based on "rules and discipline" was too unfamiliar to Yanzhou generals.
Chen Hai's way of running the army made Ding Shuang and the others even worried that it would be too harsh, which would cause deep-seated resentment among the lower-level officers, which would become a hidden danger of causing mutiny in the future. They were also worried that Chen Hai's reputation for running the army too brutally would spread. It will soon cause interference from the outside world.
There are too many people who have doubts at the moment, but seeing that Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji, two cavalry captains with practical experience in commanding troops, unswervingly support Chen Hai, if they still want to object, they can only bypass Chen Hai and Zhao. Rong and Tu Ziji reported the petition directly to the Taiwei Mansion.
It is possible for the training military officers to teach some of the most basic martial arts to the new soldiers. In Tu Ziji's opinion, this can maximize the combat effectiveness of the new army of the Seventh Capital.
However, this level of worry did not arise.
At the end of May, generals such as Yao Qitai, Zuo Si Cheng of Taiwei Mansion, were ordered to rush into the West Garden to inspect the training of the new army. A group of disciples from the Academy also entered the West Garden with them; for the accompanying Academy disciples, this was a great opportunity. It was just an opportunity for them to experience military politics.
Chen Hai knew that he had to give Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji an explanation, otherwise, subsequent implementation would be a big problem, and said:
The current problem facing the eight thousand Kou Nu soldiers is not the low force value.
However, even though they were prepared in their hearts, after Chen Hai took out the new drill manual, Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji still found it difficult to accept it. They almost completely threw away the drill regulations promulgated by the Taiwei Mansion and established new rules.
In the first few days of flogging, hundreds of people were flogged to a bloody pulp every day and tied up in front of the gate of the camp for public display. Chen Hai did not hesitate to kill the ferocious soldiers who refused to change or even intentionally committed crimes.
The establishment of the new Xiyuan Army can be said to be the result of many entanglements between the supporting ministers of Prince Yingdan and Emperor Yitian. Not to mention that there has not been any cavalry general or hussar general assigned to the Xiyuan Army General Administration Office so far. Host, even the chief training officers such as the Chariot and Cavalry Captain and the Cavalry Captain have only a handful of people with cultivation levels above the Mingqiao realm.
Every day's training consists of several simple queue movements such as standing at attention, taking a rest, turning around, marching in step, running, saluting, gathering, disbanding, counting, and forming a team; and the mattresses, which are mainly made of hemp, must be folded. It is also too difficult for people to make standard tofu cubes, and camp management can be said to be a kind of torture for both new and old soldiers.
However, if this happens, the commotion will not be small. There is no debate whether the Taiwei Mansion will write a document to reprimand Chen Hai, Zhao Rong, and Tu Ziji. The only fate for those who dare to report to the Taiwei Mansion is to be expelled from the Seventh Capital of the New Army. go out.
