Chapter VII Independent Regiment
Lu Shengzhong was looking around on the high platform in the middle of the playground, checking the soldiers' practice. When he saw Qian Xiaoxing, he jumped off the stage and ran over: "Seventh brother, it's cold, you still come to inspect it. If you don't need it anymore, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it."
"Brother Zhong, this is wrong. The worse the conditions are, the more I want to come and see the hard work of the soldiers." Qian Xiaoxing responded.
Lu Shengzhong didn't expect that Qian Xiaoxing, who was always afraid of being tired and endured, would take the initiative to experience it. It seemed that it had changed a lot. He replied: "They have no hardships, they have food and clothing, they are all very energetic, and their morale is also very high. The military camp only eats better and wears warmer than their own homes. After a month, their originally thin and thin bodies have weighed a lot."
Qian Xiaoxing also nodded and said, "Well, they are all willing to sacrifice their lives for the State of Si. Our State of Si must also provide them with the best conditions. We must let them eat enough to have the strength to fight."
After hearing this, Si Yingying didn't expect that Qian Xiaoxing was so fond of soldiers, so she underestimated him. Then she told Lu Shengzhong the news that he had received a thousand taels of gold. Lu Shengzhong was very excited after hearing this.
Qian Xiaoxing looked at the trainee soldiers, focused on doing things, and asked Lu Shengzhong: "In a few days, the New Year will be coming, and the soldiers must miss home."
Lu Shengzhong replied: "Who doesn't want to be home? But what can I do? Only with harder training can I defend the country, the people, and the relatives."
"Well, they have really made them suffer." Qian Xiaoxing looked at the rows of soldiers in the playground, and his breath came out of his mouth. Everyone was full of energy and confidence. He continued: "On New Year's Eve, I plan to let them have a meaningful New Year."
"You want to live with the soldiers?" Si Yingying thought that King Si asked him to return to Liufeng City. Isn't this going to separate from Qian Xiaoxing, so she said, "Then I'll live here too."
"You are a girl from every family. Why do you come here to do? Go back and live with your father." Qian Xiaoxing refused.
"I don't!"
Looking at Si Yingying's firm expression, Qian Xiaoxing had to shake his head, and not answering was acquiescent.
The three of them walked up to the platform and inspected the soldiers trained below. Qian Xiaoxing learned that there were currently two thousand people, one thousand archers and one thousand laners, and the battalion headquarters did not name them, so he said, "I think the archers are called Feilong Camp, and the laners are called Menghu Camp, how about it?"
Lu Shengzhong nodded and expressed no objection. Qian Xiaoxing sounded very uncomfortable in various positions in ancient times. He thought that he would still reform according to modern names, so he told Lu Shengzhong: "At present, Feilong Camp and the Tiger Camp are one regiment together, and the name is tentatively an independent regiment. One battalion is divided into ten companies, and each company is divided into five platoons, taking ten people as a unit, as a squad, and then divided it according to this first."
After hearing these strange positions, Lu Shengzhong was a little confused, but he thought about changing his name. It was the same as he was familiar with it, so he replied: "Well, there are no personnel in these positions yet. I wonder if I can make arrangements for them?"
"Well, I'll have a selection at that time." Qian Xiaoxing thought that modern army had political commissars and instructors, but there was no such position in ancient times. As a political official, the political commissar could educate soldiers in the army, purify the soldiers' hearts and strengthen the soldiers' confidence. It is very important to improve combat effectiveness. It is the soul of the army's thoughts. When the time comes, they will be selected together, so he said: "I think the leader of the Independent Regiment will be the first brother Zhong, and I will serve as the Chief of Staff of the Independent Regiment, which is what I usually call military advisor."
Lu Shengzhong had no objection to Qian Xiaoxing's arrangement and replied: "Okay, Seventh Brother, we will do whatever we say."
Qian Xiaoxing thought that in order for the soldiers to get familiar with the military rank system as soon as possible, and wanted to build a military flag for everyone to get familiar with while playing, so he asked Lu Shengzhong to find a soldier who could do carpenters and make small wooden blocks of the same size. After writing the commander, army commander, division commander, brigade commander, regiment commander, battalion commander, company commander, and platoon commander, the mines were changed to city walls, engineers were changed to siege vehicles, and bombs were changed to suicide squads. The base camp was the same. After taking the wooden board, he drew a chessboard, so a complete military flag was done.
After Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong talked about the rules, they put on the chess piece and asked Si Yingying to be the referee and played a secret game with Lu Shengzhong. This time, Qian Xiaoxing's formation was a strong attack type. The commander and commander took the lead in charge. After a while, they cleared Lu Shengzhong's all the way and attacked Huanglong and took the base camp. Lu Shengzhong was surprised. Although he thought he would lose, he did not expect that he would lose so quickly, so he insisted on Qian Xiaoxing's next game with him.
Qian Xiaoxing fought steadily in this game, defeating each one, using the commander to eat the division commander, and the commander to eat the commander, and soon strangled Lu Shengzhong's chess piece. In addition to losing one division commander, the first brigade commander and other small troops, the main force was basically still there.
Until he killed all the last piece of Lu Shengzhong and opened the card and let Lu Shengzhong see that Lu Shengzhong was speechless again. Why would the same chess piece be defeated so badly? I thought that it would be strange if I fought like this on the battlefield.
"Seventh brother, you are so good at playing chess. I will go back and study it and I will definitely beat you." Lu Shengzhong was very interested in this military flag for a while. Not only did he pass the time, he could also learn a lot of truths from it.
"Okay, but you don't just play this chess yourself, let the soldiers learn to play it. If you play it well, you can be promoted to an officer first." Qian Xiaoxing replied.
"Brother Xing, why can you win? They are all the same forces?" Si Yingying asked in an unfathomable way.
Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and replied: "Weapons are the ingenious way. The real one is the invisible one. If you are not careful, you will be the real one. If you are unprepared, you will be the quality of an excellent staff officer, such as if you are like me."
After hearing this, Si Yingying seemed to have a scene of Si Guo defeating Hu Guo in her eyes, and she couldn't help but smile.
Two days later, in the valley where soldiers were trained, King Si, Si Yingying, Qian Xiaoxing and others sat on the platform of the training ground. King Si heard that Si Yingying was going to celebrate New Year's Eve in the valley, so he rushed over. These soldiers were the last force of the State of Si, and King Si also needed to encourage him well.
Under the platform, rows of neat soldiers were standing in rows of neat soldiers, wearing black military uniforms, and the cold wind blew through their clothes. When they saw King Si coming, they were very excited, and their eyes revealed an excited expression.
King Si stood up and said to the two thousand soldiers below: "Hello, soldiers!"
The audience shouted neatly: "Hello, King Si!" The voice was majestic and resounding throughout the valley.
Qian Xiaoxing was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that there would be a military parade in that era. Should King Si say that the soldiers have worked hard?
However, King Si did not say as Qian Xiaoxing thought, and only heard King Si say: "A fierce battle invading our State of China five years ago killed and injured tens of thousands of soldiers. Now the people of our State of China have no clothes on their bodies and no food at home. In this way, the people of Si State will not live any longer. We must take back our own things!"
"Take it back!" the soldiers shouted in unison.
Seeing that the soldiers below were full of righteous indignation, King Si was suddenly excited and continued: "Now, the only hope for Si State is you. What you carry on your shoulders is the future of Si State, and you shoulder the hope of our Si State's rise again! I believe that with you, Si State will definitely stand up again!"
"Stand up!" "Stand up again!" The soldiers below shouted.
When King Si saw the angry soldiers, he couldn't help but feel happy, as if he had seen the future of Si Guo. Two lines of turbid tears rolled down in his eyes. He continued: "Next, I will introduce your Chief of Staff to you. All the food, use, and wear this time are earned by the Chief of Staff for everyone, welcome!"
King Si went forward cordially and invited Qian Xiaoxing. Qian Xiaoxing slowly stepped forward and stood in front of the stage. Two thousand pairs of eyes stared at him directly, and he was suddenly a little panicked. To be honest, Qian Xiaoxing had also made accustomed to the idea before going on stage. He forgot the result of this panic. He stood there for a while, and slowly said, "Hello everyone!"
When the soldiers saw that Qian Xiaoxing was only in their twenties, many of them were older than Qian Xiaoxing. When they heard that the army's expenses were made by Qian Xiaoxing, they admired them all. However, when they heard that he was the chief of staff of the army, they did not trust them very much. After all, Qian Xiaoxing did not let them understand his abilities, so they could only keep their questions in their hearts and believe them for now.
