Chapter 199 Recruit training and the princess sent to the door

The harsh whistle sounded suddenly in the dark night.

This is the Guards camp of Chengtian Mansion.

Immediately, Liu Lai, the military academy's dean of students, and others, who had already prepared, waited quietly at the school grounds.

The wolf-like military academy cadets had already rushed into the recruits' dormitories and shouted: "Get up, everyone, the enemy is attacking! The enemy is attacking!"

The training of the new Guards troops in these two towns was entirely handled by the Imperial Military Academy of the Ming Dynasty. Due to the large number of new recruits, Liu Lai and Chen Wei, the most senior members of the military academy, had to go into battle themselves.

Tonight, Liu Lai had a whim and couldn't sleep, so he arranged for everyone to hold an emergency gathering at night!

The recruits of the Third Battalion of the Fifth Guards Town were unfortunately selected.

Because the training during the day was too hard, the recruits fell asleep like dead pigs as soon as they lay down on the bed, and did not even hear the whistle for emergency muster.

There was no other way. The military academy cadets responsible for training the new recruits could only punch and kick them, forcefully dragging the new recruits out of their sleep, and then dragging them to the school field.

"Let them wake up!"

Liu Lai, dressed in military uniform, said to the students beside him.

But before the recruits could react, the squad leaders of the third battalion had already shouted slogans: Stand at attention, take a break, and turn to the right.

Fortunately, Liu Lai didn't know whether he was sleepy or tired, but out of kindness, he stopped after five laps, allowing the recruits to drag their exhausted bodies back to the dormitory to continue sleeping.

Morning exercises are nothing more than physical training, taking turns doing push-ups and running.

Not to mention, after processing, people like it even more!

These recruits had a great time eating. They chose noodles or noodles according to their preferences, queued up to pour the pork offal soup, and a bowl of pork offal noodles came out!

Nowadays, the pork production in Chengtian Mansion is getting higher and higher, and pork is no longer an unattainable meat for ordinary people!

Serving as a soldier under Emperor Shenwu of the Ming Dynasty is a real soldier. It is not easy to die in a war. It is much more comfortable to have the cannon fodder of the vassal countries to block the guns than to be a consumable in the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, the recruit who had just complained shyly responded to the squad leader's laughter and scolding: "Squad leader, we are just joking, we only want to be loyal to the emperor!"

However, it seemed that not long after I slept, the wake-up call rang again.

The staple food is sweet potato flour and corn flour. Since the yield of sweet potatoes and corn is too large, in order to prevent the grain from mold, Zhu Kezang opened several grain processing plants to process a large number of high-yielding crops into flour and noodles.

How could they still sleep after running around? The recruits were secretly cursing Liu Lai, the old bastard.

The Guards Barracks has a standard 400-meter runway, and twenty laps are equal to eight kilometers (Zhu Kezang has used vernier calipers and other tools to unify weights and measures).

After they were seated, the food support staff Ren Yuan brought food to everyone.

At this time, Yan Dehuan shouted: "It took a total of two hundred and twenty breaths from the time the alarm was issued to the actual completion of the team. If you were attacked at night on the battlefield, you would have been slaughtered early in the morning. I really want to take you to the battlefield.

I don’t even know how I died!”

Moreover, with three meals a day, not only can you be full, but you can also have meat, lard mixed with rice, braised pork, fish soup, and countless others.

They just want to get through these three months as quickly as possible. If they get through it, they will become prosperous and have many benefits in the future.

After dozens of moments of chaos, the recruits were barely able to line up neatly in the school grounds surrounded by torches.

Who can withstand running eight kilometers in the middle of the night?

Therefore, the new recruits started to complain, and if they really wanted to get them out of the barracks, they would not leave even if they were killed.

After three months of training and being officially hired by the Guards, you can get six taels of silver a month and take off directly.

Hearing the screams of the new recruits, the squad leaders who were also washing up laughed and cursed: "If you can't stand it, you can go back to farming or working in factories. Believe it or not, there are countless people willing to receive this military salary for you!"

The cadet squad leaders at the military academy were too lazy to delve into the recruits' temporary complaints, so they changed the subject: "Wash yourselves clean, don't act like an old cat licking your face. I've given you face washcloths and dental kits, they're not just for decoration."

·······”

"It's just a mess in the cold water. If it were replaced by a fire gun, wouldn't it be ravaged by others? I would arrange everything neatly!"

As a last resort, under the discipline of absolute obedience to orders, the recruits started to run around in circles following their superiors.

"So, in order not to embarrass Ming Dynasty, I decided to punish you by running laps now. However, it is late at night and you are tired, so you can run less and just run twenty laps around the school grounds."

"Reorganize the team!" Liu Lai shouted.

As usual, under the "reminders" and dragging of the squad leaders, the recruits who didn't even take off their clothes finally lined up in order before going out for morning exercises.

As soon as these words came out, the recruits who had already woken up became a little uneasy.

The trainees immediately threw basins of water at the crooked crowd. The half-asleep recruits were doused with cold water and immediately became chaotic. Of course, they also woke up.

Who wants to quit the Guards with such good treatment?

It is said that when they become regulars, the Guards camp will have a military store where popular commodities such as Tibetan wine, sugar, silk, cotton, mirrors, and soaps can be purchased at a 20% discount!

Of course, it is impossible to expect to make a fortune by buying goods in a military store and then reselling them outside!

Because each person's monthly quota of goods is limited. For example, you can only buy one bottle of Zangxian wine a month, and you can only buy ten kilograms of sugar a month.

In the hustle and bustle, each department finished washing one after another and returned to the dormitory to put away their own toiletries. At this time, it was time for breakfast. Each dormitory lined up, took their own bowls and chopsticks, and entered the restaurant one by one to sit down.

After morning exercises, the recruits lined up to wash up. At this time, the recruits of the Third Battalion of the Fifth Town began to complain: "Who can withstand this? Look at the dark circles under my eyes. I didn't sleep all night last night!"

Some soldiers have no desires and do not want to spend money. They also think that banknotes are easy to lose. What should I do if it is not safe?

In order to solve this problem, when the recruits become regular soldiers, the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty will send special staff to open a passbook for each soldier of the Guards. If you want to use money, just take the passbook to the Chengtianfu branch and get the money.

There is enough amount in the passbook, you can take as much as you want, and you can deposit it back if you don't use it all, which is also convenient.

The recruits immediately fell silent. Yes, the training of the Guards was a bit hard and tiring, but you could actually get two taels of silver every month, which was two ten-yuan dragon coins.

The people of Chengtian Prefecture don't say they have freedom from pork. At least they can go to the market to buy some pork every now and then, and they don't feel bad.

"It smells so good. It's so comfortable to serve as a soldier for the emperor!"

The new recruits underwent brutal training in Chengtian Mansion, but the great emperor they longed for lived a happy life in Mancajia City.

"Your Majesty, the princess of the Kingdom of Aceh has arrived in Mansiga and is waiting for you!"
