Chapter 625 Is everything reasonable?
Upon hearing Xu Da's question, Yang Shaofeng simply pursed his lips and said, "No."
Those fifty yamen runners were trained in a completely different way than the 100-household garrison in front of us.
To show Lao Deng what a real iron army was like, and also to annoy Li Wenzhong, Yang Shaofeng basically copied the "Militia Cadre Training Manual" published by a publishing house in Shenyang.
As we all know, when a certain rabbit first started out, the overall environment and the surrounding environment were very harsh.
To this end, the rabbit wrote books like crazy back then, such as "Friends of Dual-Use Military and Civilian Talents", "Homemade Refinement Series", "Barefoot Doctor's Manual", "Militia Training Manual", and "Militia Cadre Training Manual". All the books were full of practical information, and he even dared to write about the maintenance of mushroom bombs. He was completely aiming to rebuild quickly after the third bombing.
To put it simply, the training direction of this thousand-household station in Ningyang County is the Seventh Company.
The fifty personal guards of the Imperial Son-in-Law's Mansion and the fifty yamen runners drawn from various counties of Dengzhou Prefecture were being trained as instructors for the training brigade.
Yang Shaofeng looked up at the sky and said directly to Xu Da, "It's almost time for dinner, Minister Xu, why don't you join me for a meal here?"
Xu Da gave a noncommittal "hmm" and followed Yang Shaofeng toward the so-called cafeteria.
When Xu Da arrived at the cafeteria, he completely broke down.
Whose military camp would have flour sacks pressed into rectangles?
Whose military camp has firewood of uniform length and neatly arranged?
If these are barely acceptable, then what about the neatly arranged eggs?
Xu Da frowned slightly and asked, "Is this also part of the training?"
Yang Shaofeng hummed in agreement, but inwardly he was secretly criticizing Xu Da for being ignorant.
This is where and where.
If you were shown a spotless outhouse and a clothes-drying area where even the direction of clothes drying is regulated, wouldn't you scream like a groundhog on the spot?
Xu Da walked around the mess hall and asked, "Where are the cooks? Aren't they going to start preparing now? When do you plan to let the soldiers eat?"
Yang Shaofeng said, "The cook is training right now, he should be here soon to start preparing the meal."
Xu Da was slightly taken aback, but Yang Shaofeng continued, "None of the Ningyang Thousand-Household Office and all the Hundred-Household Offices under its jurisdiction have dedicated cooks."
"The so-called cooks were the group of people with better training results in each of the centurions."
"They usually train with other soldiers, and before the training ends, they have to rush back to cook for the other soldiers. After eating, they also have to clean up the mess hall."
"The same applies to the personal guards of the Imperial Son-in-Law's residence."
Xu Da felt a sharp, stabbing pain in his heart.
"Such elite soldiers, you're going to make them cooks?"
Xu Da said with a dark face, "You...you,"
After several attempts failed to elicit a satisfactory answer, Xu Da simply snorted coldly and said, "How about this: you give me the Ningyang Thousand-Household Garrison, and I'll allocate you an additional Thousand-Household Garrison, along with some cooks. How about that?"
Yang Shaofeng curled his lip and said, "This is nothing."
"In the hundred-household units under the jurisdiction of Ningyang Thousand-Household Garrison, junior officers and veterans sleep on the upper bunk. When there are new recruits, they sleep on the lower bunk. When there are no new recruits, the youngest or the worst-trained ones sleep on the lower bunk."
Every night, Xiao Qi also had to keep an eye on the soldiers under his command to make hot water for soaking their feet.
"When a new recruit makes a mistake, he is not punished as a recruit, but as a flag."
"Xiaoqi must fulfill the responsibilities of a father and elder brother."
"..."
Xu Da was once again completely bewildered.
Is this right?
Something's definitely not right here.
Are these things enough to make those veteran soldiers so fearless and yet still strictly adhere to military discipline?
Stop talking nonsense, okay?
Why are those veterans called "veteran slickers"?
It's because they've seen so much life and death on the battlefield, and they've also seen all sorts of ways to win people over, that they've all become incredibly slick.
Now, you're telling me that such a simple method can completely transform those veterans?
Seeing Xu Da's bewildered expression, Yang Shaofeng laughed.
These methods alone are certainly not enough.
But it's reasonable to take them to the fields and let them help the people plow and clear land under the watchful eyes of young women and wives, isn't it?
They helped the people plow the land and clear wasteland, and it was reasonable for the people to bring a few hot white steamed buns and eggs to reward the troops, wasn't it?
When they were eating steamed buns and eggs, it would be reasonable for Baihu to stand up and say a few words, "This is all grain saved by the people of Ningyang County. We cannot let down the kindness of the people of Ningyang."
In addition, many soldiers' relatives from the Ningyang Thousand Household Garrison also moved to Ningyang County to settle down.
When I went home to visit my family, I saw that their lives were better than before.
When I returned home to visit my family, I heard my parents, wife, and children talk about how the government and neighbors had helped our family.
Even though the Ningyang Thousand Household Garrison was originally full of veterans, after experiencing the process of helping the people and the people feeding them several times, and witnessing the changes in their families' lives, their mentality should have changed.
Not to mention that the Ningyang Thousand-Household Garrison was originally composed of elite troops specially transferred by Lao Deng, and their military discipline was already quite good.
Just as Xu Da was lost in thought with a bewildered expression, a squad of soldiers quickly ran to the mess hall.
Picking vegetables, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, steaming buns.
When Xu Da saw a soldier cut a piece of cured meat into strips of roughly the same length and thickness, he fell into even deeper thought.
Am I to follow Zhu Chongba's example and stay in Ningyang County forever?
No.
Zhu Chongba could stay in Ningyang County because Zhu Biao in the capital was doing his work for him.
If I also stay in Ningyang County and refuse to leave, no one will be there to protect me from the Northern Expedition.
Thinking of this, Xu Da's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Yang Shaofeng and asked, "Come, come, tell me about the school district zoning."
Once the areas are divided into zones, shouldn't the Yanyun area be designated as one zone?
Should Liaodong also be designated as a separate area?
Should the Western Regions also be designated as a separate area?
There was a powerful figure in Yanyun, a powerful figure in Liaodong, and a powerful figure in the Western Regions.
This means that three districts are facing Hu Yuan at the same time.
It's reasonable for three people who make the decisions to share the military affairs with me, isn't it?
It is also reasonable for me, as the Grand Commander, to remain in Ningyang County to observe the Ningyang Thousand-Household Garrison and prepare for the future reform of the Grand Commander's Office and the garrison system.
Yang Shaofeng was slightly taken aback, then laughed.
"Although I was the one who first brought up the issue of school district allocation, shouldn't the decision-making process be made by the Grand General's Office, the Ministry of War, and the Secretariat?"
"I do not hold any military rank."
