Chapter 21: Confucius Offers Advice
After a whole day of training, you can't just run, as it will not only be boring, but also won't have the effect of training.
Since we arrived in Wendeng, everyone has been able to eat well every day. In the past month, they have almost been well recuperated. With the morning running warm-up, Wang Zheng believes that they can handle the subsequent training.
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng took out a standard spear, and after seeing it, the recruits were pointing fingers and talking.
Because the spear in Wang Zheng's hand was a little different from that in their hands, the spear was tied with a hemp rope, and the recruits couldn't understand why this was, so several people asked questions at the moment.
In Qi Shuai's "The Real Document of Military Training", he said that if a new recruit joins the army, he needs to practice three things before practicing assassination skills. This is the foot strength, the hand strength and the body strength.
Wang Zheng asked every recruit to run in the morning, and he practiced foot strength. After the recruits persisted in running for half a month, Wang Zheng would slowly let the recruits run with heavy loads. This is also a training to improve foot strength and lay the foundation for possible long-distance raids in the future.
In addition to foot strength, the spear that Wang Zheng took out now is a way to train hand strength and body strength.
The recruits learned from Wang Zheng, took a deep breath, raised their spears in their hands, and the stones hanging under the spears were different depending on the strength of each person.
At this moment, a guard soldier from the camp stretched out his waist and yawned out, rubbed his eyes, and laughed when he saw the scene in front of him, shouting.
"Hurry, come out quickly and watch the fun."
Because it was already afternoon, the satisfied soldiers of the garrison were constantly stretching out from the camp and walked out, and at this moment they gathered together in groups of three or three to point fingers.
Gao Shan and several whistlemen named Liu also walked out with their own servants, and were a little puzzled.
"Is this Wang Zheng stupid? Why are you doing with such a big stone tied under the spear?"
Hearing the whistleman named Liu's question, Gao Shan snorted coldly: "It's useless! Can you go into battle by practicing this method? Are the unruly people or unruly people? Then you can see them being beaten and pissed."
"Haha, what Mr. Gao said is that it's good to go out and watch the fun after sleeping!"
Wang Zhengping faced a group of new recruits with a long spear. There were more and more soldiers from the guards watching the fun around him, and he also saw the anger on the faces of the new recruits.
At this moment, Wang Zheng asked.
"Do you need to rest?"
Dong Youyin's heart flashed countless times with the scene of throwing down his spear and sitting on the ground and breathing heavily, but when he heard the fingers and laughter of the soldiers around him, he shouted angrily.
"Don't rest, we guys in Yijing Village have never been cowards. Just practice like this and let these kids laugh!"
Huang Yang shook his whole body, but he still held his head and laughed: "Maybe they were tired of laughing before we were tired of training."
Deng Erhei gritted his teeth and let the hot sweat slide down his dark face. Huang Yang and others were the same. When Wang Zheng saw the new recruits, he nodded and praised.
"Okay! You are worthy of being the erotic son of Yijingzhuang, you are all good!"
......
Half a month has passed, and now the recruits have gradually started to run and are no longer as struggling as they were in the beginning. They can take an hour without much effort.
Wang Zheng nodded. It seemed that the preparations were almost done, and it was time for real training.
Let the recruits stand up, Wang Zheng lined up for them, first let them practice turning left and right, step forward and run, etc., but the effect was not ideal.
Most of the recruits couldn't even tell the left and right. After turning left once, they couldn't bear to look at the queue that had been lined up. They were in a mess. Many recruits bumped into each other and fell to their backs.
Seeing this funny scene, the Wei soldiers watching around him were also laughing.
"Come out and take a look! The people from these six whistles have finally changed into a new trick and are walking around in the same circle."
Gao Shan sat on a big rock, pointed at a recruit in the queue, clapped his legs and laughed: "Look at Lao Liu, look, that big man, oh, hahaha!"
Wang Zheng ordered the right hand, but the recruit was turning left, colliding with the recruit who was turning right hand side and both fell to the ground. There were still many such people.
After a few days, the recruits' queue training seemed to have encountered a bottleneck, but there was still no progress. Wang Zheng could see that each of the recruits worked very hard, but they didn't know the enemy at all, so there was nothing they could do about it.
Even if Wang Zheng pulled his neck and scolded him, it would be useless. It would be messy as much as he could.
Not to mention the dozens of team leaders, among the three team officials, only Huang Yangneng acted according to the orders, and could also help Wang Zheng scold the new recruits who did the wrong.
As for Dong Youyin and Deng Erhei, although they were very serious, they still couldn't get the point and were busy. After a day, they were even more tired than holding a spear for a day.
Five days after the queue training began, Wang Zheng had no choice but to suspend the queue training, but the long spear lifting stones and weight-bearing running were not interrupted. These two things have become necessary training subjects for recruits in daily life.
Sitting on the stone, Wang Zheng was anxious. The more anxious he was, the less he could not think of a solution. The recruits didn’t know how to practice well.
At this moment, Yu'er came over and sat next to Wang Zheng.
"Brother Zheng has encountered trouble these days. Why not talk to Yu'er. Maybe Yu'er can help Brother Zheng."
He forced a smile to Yu'er, but this smile was even worse than crying. Wang Zheng sighed listlessly and said, "Yu'er, you go back and take care of our mother first. You can't help with the matter here."
Yu'er shook her head and blinked her big eyes playfully to look at Wang Zheng. Her cute appearance made Wang Zheng laugh, and she stretched out her hand to pinch Yu'er's little nose, causing a burst of giggle.
"You, you really can't do anything to you."
Yu'er smiled and leaned gently on Wang Zheng's shoulder, saying, "Brother Zheng is worried about everyone's difficulty in distinguishing the left and right?"
He looked at Yu'er in surprise, and Wang Zheng nodded: "Well, it's not everyone's carelessness, it's really..."
"Brother Zheng might as well give it a try. Draw something obvious or color on each person's shoulders, not to mention left and right, use such things to order them, and everyone will understand."
"yes!"
Wang Zheng suddenly realized and hugged Yu'er in his arms with a look of ecstasy. Without thinking, he kissed Yu'er's face with his big mouth. The haze that had been gone for several days seemed to have been wiped out.
"Yu'er, your words are like the sound of nature. It's like I've heard them in my ears as if I've finally seen the blue sky after I've made a great contribution!"
When Yu'er saw Wang Zheng kissing, she was ramming in her heart, but she did not refuse. She closed her eyes nervously. When she opened it quietly, she saw Wang Zheng hurriedly running over to greet the whole team and started training.
