lied to Kangxi

Chapter 979
The first two months of recruit training are mainly obedience discipline training.

The guys who failed the training for ten consecutive days were immediately cleared out of the barracks, and the best of the auxiliary soldiers were replaced one by one.

Yuzhu is an old bureaucrat, and he is well aware of the long-standing disadvantages of entertaining guests and giving gifts in the army, and using the back door to pull relationships.

All the supplementary soldiers will participate in the assessment presided over by Yuzhu himself.

"Everyone is there, stand at attention."

"turn right."

"To the left."

"Walk together."

"Standing!"

"First row, ten steps forward."

"Third row, turn back and take three steps forward."

After a rigorous assessment, most of the auxiliary soldiers who came up were qualified fighters.

However, there are still fishers in troubled waters.

A right turn becomes a left turn.

Take ten steps forward, always half a beat behind, one step behind.

There are a total of 11 of these bastards,
In advance, Yu Zhu had already greeted in advance, and those who failed the assessment would not only be dismissed immediately, but also the corresponding recommenders would be punished.

Eleven people, each with ten army sticks, were driven out of the barracks.

The three non-commissioned officers who recommended them to come up will be issued warrants by Yuzhu himself, and they will be dismissed from the army and will never be used again!

"Shan Zhang, I beg you, for the sake of the students' following for many years, give me a chance to reform, please."

"Shan Zhang, the student is wrong, he shouldn't have drunk a few pots of wine and then slapped his chest..."

"Shan Zhang, the students didn't strictly check for the sake of fellow villagers, so you can punish them however you want, please don't be fired from the military, okay..."

Yu Zhu glanced at his mouth and smiled, and said coldly: "One day, because they became deserters and exposed me to the enemy's guns, will the enemy stop shooting?"

"Let's go, my temple is too small to support predators like you." Yuzhu waved his hand, and the military police immediately rushed forward and "invited" these old subordinates out of the barracks.

"Shan Zhang, is it too strict?" At first, Lu Wu, the governor, thought that Yu Zhu was just trying to show off, but he didn't expect it to be for real.

"Changsong, civil servants who resort to deceit will surely enrich their own pockets, the people will be full of resentment, and even the hungry people will be everywhere. Military generals will perish for personal gain and cheat the country." Yuzhu said coldly, "If you feel that the restraint is too strict, you can get rid of it by yourself. Wouldn’t it be very easy to put off your military uniform and go back to your hometown to do farming or business?”

Lu Wu was terrified, he quickly knelt down, kowtowed heavily and said, "Student, how dare you have such a rebellious heart?"

"Humph, I'm sorry you don't dare!" Yuzhu said viciously, "As long as you dare to cheat for personal gain and promote those useless people with strong backing, then we have to see whether it is your neck or the ghost of the executioner." Hard head?"

"Students don't dare!" Lu Wu finally understood that driving away the three non-commissioned officers was just an added bonus. Yuzhu really wanted to beat him, the town commander.

"Changsong, listen to me, your own confidant, no matter how much you like him, if you don't have real skills, you can't be promoted, understand?" Yuzhu understands the twists and turns in the army better than the fourth.

How did the mountain in the army come about?

That is to say, when the chief promotes the junior officers, he only cares about the closeness of the relationship, or how many gifts he gives, not whether he has real skills.

The bigger the mountain, the more things you do that violate the regulations!
In the future, after the army goes south or west, who will be stationed in the big cities, and who will be stationed in the harsh outposts in the ice and snow?

Often, people who stay at the headquarters are not only promoted quickly, but also have good places to transfer to other places.

On the contrary, the honest people stationed at the border post don't know how to flatter and don't have the money to give gifts.As a result, being a soldier suffered a disadvantage, and changing jobs still suffered a big disadvantage.

Yuzhu knew too well the twists and turns inside, so, taking advantage of the expansion of the new army and the fact that the mountain had not yet been established, he set up a good rule for the old subordinates.

In the future, when arranging a job change, military officers stationed in big cities will lose 200 points first.Those stationed at the border post will get 200 points.Officers serving in the major headquarters have the most points deducted, as high as 500 points.

Those who have made military exploits also get extra points.

Military cadres are all graded one by one during the exercise.

Those who can go up, those who can't go down!

The drills are all badly directed, and it's really going to war, so you still count on a ball?

Anyway, Yu Zhu had already made up his mind that in the future, all transferred officers would be free to choose their positions according to their total points, from high to low.

If the score is high, you can freely choose to join the real power departments such as the police station, tax bureau, and customs anti-smuggling bureau.Those with low scores really lost their jobs, so they can only take the money and leave, and go home to enjoy themselves.

All are treated equally, without exception.

Such an army can always be invincible.

Otherwise, my father is powerful, and he has a better future than others when he is lying down, and his salary is high. The speed of corruption is very fast. How is it different from the current Eight Banners soldiers in the Beijing camp?

If things go on like this, what's the deal?
The dismissal of three non-commissioned officers once again shocked the entire new army, and everyone saw Yuzhu's determination to strive for fairness.

"Papa..." After the queue training was basically completed, the newly recruited soldiers began shooting training.

Restricted by historical conditions, the entire shooting action of the front-loading gun is many times more complicated than that of modern times.

As far as Yuzhu's naked eyes could see, there were many cases of making fools of himself.

Right under Yuzhu's nose, a recruit was so flustered that he loaded the gun barrel with ammunition twice.

Yuzhu watched coldly, and he found that the main reason was that the distance between the non-commissioned officers was too far, and the recruits did not hear the password clearly.

In the era of line infantry, it was impossible to attack and advance in the form of skirmish lines.

In the era of front-loading flintlock guns, three rows of soldiers, following the rhythm of military drums, risked death, advanced to 50-60 meters in front of the enemy's front, and then listened to the password and fired together. This required great courage. .

The new army was brought out by Yu Zhu in a handful of shit and urine. He knows the difficult problems in shooting training and psychological problems like the back of his hand.

In the beginning, it was quite normal to be in a hurry.

As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, the more times you do it, the more proficient you will become.

Of course, the key to shooting training is actually to absolutely obey the officer's password.

When approaching battle, any soldier who shoots without hearing the password will be sent to a military court.

Because Alice secretly spent a lot of money, Yuzhu got a battlefield report from the top of the British Army.

Even for well-trained British lobster soldiers, when they are about to fight, the highest rate of firing the first salvo is 90%, and it is still impossible to be 100%.

The more times you reload, the higher the probability of error.

To put it bluntly, after three volleys of infantry in three rows, the movement deformation caused by fear and nervousness made the success rate of reloading always less than 60%.

War is a science, not metaphysics.

It is precisely because someone summed up the error rate of loading that it is so amazing.

Therefore, the British lobster soldiers simply advanced to a distance of 50 meters from the enemy, and then fired three salvos.

According to the statistics of the British army, shooting at such a close distance, basically, after three volleys, the enemy army collapsed.

What Yu Zhu didn't know was that in its heyday, the Nahuang Guards always approached 40 meters before firing a volley.

Such a short distance can almost cause the fearful killing effect of machine gun fire. It only takes one volley to collapse the enemy army.

After watching the recruits' shooting training, Yu Zhu went to the artillery again.

After all, artillery is Yuzhu's baby bump.

In today's artillery camp, artillery officers are all temporary positions.

After the training is completed, the British and French instructors will make suggestions respectively, and Yuzhu will be officially appointed as appropriate.

There is no problem of worshiping foreigners, mainly the British and French, who are not as smart as the Qing people, and they are more rigid in their work.

More importantly, the foreigners and Yuzhu's artillery officers were neither related nor related, so they must be relatively fair.

Besides, Yuzhu offered a clear reward to the British and French artillery instructors.

A group of artillerymen who pass the training will be rewarded with £5.Ten groups of artillery, that is 50 pounds.

How can it be possible to raise soldiers, especially artillery, without burning money?

Don't shells cost money?No money for gunpowder?The loss of the barrel, no money?Is there no money for military pay?

However, the French instructors offered to ask for the silver coin "Sole" instead of the pound sterling, or the gold coins "golden egus" and "golden louis".

In France in this era, the French franc is not yet a unified standard currency, and the Sol (also known as "Su", sous) is the current silver coin.

一磅白银，可以铸造66个索尔。1个金路易（Louis）等于24里弗尔，1个金埃居（écu d'or）等于6里弗尔。

Artillery is a very professional branch.

For the reasonable request of the French artillery instructor, Yuzhu, who is asking for others, naturally agreed.

Inside the binoculars, Yuzhu was delighted to find that several groups of artillery stood out among the many artillery.

How should I put it, reloading is extremely fast, ignition is timely, and the second launch is also fast and reasonable.

Uh huh, let's just say, under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man!
The foreign devils, who came all the way from Europe, don't want to make a fortune, do they want to make a contribution?
Seeing that Yuzhu was in a good mood, Liu Shenghong, the Artillery Coordinator who accompanied him, quickly suggested: "Shan Zhang, please get off the horse and have a rest, and have some tea?"

Yuzhu nodded, and said with a smile: "The progress of the training is very good. You must remember that if you pass the group, you will report the reward for the group. You must not delay too long."

"Shan Zhang, don't worry, you old man. When the students received the money for the first time and sent it to the foreign instructors, hey, they were so excited. They sang and danced and celebrated for a long time. "Liu Shenghong told the embarrassing things about the foreign instructors vividly.

"Well, that's the reason for seeing the money!" Yuzhu is proficient in the psychology of foreigners, and deliberately didn't give out the reward for the last time, but for the successful training group. After passing the inspection, the reward will be distributed on the spot.

This is the same as the migrant workers on the construction site. They would rather get less money than get paid every day.

With money in your pocket, you will have enough energy to work the next day!
