"preparation!"
"put!"
At the eastern end of Chongming Island, the officers and soldiers of the Musket Brigade conducted daily training under the orders of the officers. The officers and soldiers have already practiced the basic movements such as charging, raising guns, and launching. Many people can even complete this movement with their eyes closed.
The training was boring and painful. Most of the Musketeer brigade soldiers had eaten the officer's whip, and even had their **** spanked with a big stick, but they didn't hold any resentment, because they knew that the officers punished them physically, just To keep them alive on the battlefield.
Life is undoubtedly more precious than pain.
"If you don't endure hardship on weekdays, you will bleed in wartime" is what officers say the most on weekdays. If you miss a move in training, you may never have the chance to make up for your mistakes on the battlefield.
Life and death are only in one thought, but also in every move.
If you don't do well, you will not only lose your life, but also the lives of your comrades around you.
The army cannot guarantee that every soldier will survive the war, but it can ensure that every soldier receives the maximum training and provides the best guarantee for their training, so as to enhance their chances of surviving on the battlefield .
After receiving the transfer order to participate in the Northern Expedition, the Musket Brigade held a pre-war mobilization from top to bottom. In addition to the impassioned and heroic achievements of a good man in the field, what the soldiers heard the most was to survive. The officer hopes that his subordinates can come back alive, and his comrades also hope that the companions they get along with day and night can come back alive.
Two days ago, the officers and soldiers who were dispatched to the islands of Chongming each received a letter bag for them to write letters to their relatives. After the letter is written, once the army goes north, it will be sent to the relatives of the soldiers and soldiers by a special person from the Grand Governor's Office, so that everyone must know where their relatives have gone.
The letter level is the highest level of military post. According to the military regulations of the Taiping Army, if the courier cannot deliver the letter within the specified time, then they will be subject to military law.
It was Zhou Shixiang's special request to let the soldiers in the north write letters to their families. Before this, there was no such precedent.
Why did he do this? Zhou Shixiang gave his subordinates only one reason, that is, he not only wanted the soldiers to know what they were going to do, but also let their relatives know what they were going to do.
The Northern Expedition to Manchuria was not a matter for the Taiping Army, but for everyone in the entire Ming Dynasty. The front is the front line and the battlefield, and the rear is also the front line and the battlefield. Those with knives work hard, and those who don’t have knives also have to work hard.
Together with the Northern Expedition, people, regardless of age or weakness, and land regardless of North and South, all have the responsibility to serve the country!
........
On the highest point of Chongming Island, eight striking characters are painted with lime - "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while!"
With the arrival of personnel and materials, the atmosphere of combat readiness on Chongming Island is getting stronger and more tense.
Everyone knows what they are going to do, and they all know that the next moment, maybe they will be on the ship going north.
On the side of the training ground for the officers and soldiers of the Musket Brigade, the words "use me in the first battle, use me to win" are written.
The slogan was asked by the brigade school Xiao Guogong Yu Youming from the commander Zhou Shixiang. Except for the Musket Brigade, Zhou Shixiang did not personally propose a slogan to any troops. This made the more than 3,000 officers and soldiers of the Musket Brigade very proud, and the training was even more assiduous.
They will never live up to the commander's expectations for them. They will play the prestige of the Musket Brigade and will inherit the spirit of General Shizhong forever.
On the sea not far away, two brigades from the New Second Army and New Third Army and the East China Sea Division are conducting a landing synthesis exercise.
On the sea, warships dragged and smashed shells on the pre-planned battlefield.
All kinds of horns and flags sent orders one after another, and the rumbling sound of the cannons seemed to shake the entire Chongming Island.
"Brothers, paddle hard!"
More than 200 small boats carrying more than 4,000 officers and soldiers rushed towards the shore. The officers and soldiers on the boat rowed bravely and shouted horns. On these small boats, there are dozens of flags, all the glorious flags of the troops participating in the war, representing their glorious journey from the day they formed the army.
Luo Lun, the Brigade School of the New Second Army, led his troops to land in person. He beat the drums in front of him and encouraged his subordinates.
This young brigade school, who was just assigned from the Army University, is very capable. In just a few days, he has become one with the soldiers. He has no air of an officer. The ambassador joked that he could go home to retire.
On the beach, the engineer department and the staff department of the fifth theater have pre-buried a lot of medicine bags, and used lead wires to blast them, simulating the wartime scene. In order to be as realistic as possible, the engineering troops even dug a lot of trenches on the beach with a radius of only seven or eight miles, arranged many fences and obstacles, and built some fortifications and barracks~www.novelbuddy.com~The military and civilians on the island This is the first time most people have seen such a large-scale sea crossing and landing combat exercise. They curiously put down their work and watched the officers and soldiers on the small boats at sea bravely row to the shore, and then jumped off the boat one after another, shouting slogans Rush to the exercise area full of black smoke.
When a red flag representing victory was planted on the tent that symbolized the enemy's commander-in-chief, thousands of soldiers waved various weapons and began to cheer.
The officers were busy discussing previous offensive deficiencies and exposed problems, and quickly reported to the staff for adjustment and discussion by the staff.
"Don't look at it, they have their battles to fight, and we have ours to fight! Let me practice hard, save me from going to the north, and I can't even stand, which is a shame for me!"
Baihu Mafeng has been training with his subordinates on the boat for several days. At first, only seven or eight people of more than 100 people could survive. Half of the people are used to the turbulence of sea ships. The remaining half, although still a little seasick, at least not vomited much. This can be considered to meet the above requirements, after all, they do not want to fight on the ship, the sailors will solve the danger. They just need to be able to stay on the boat to their destination.
"Team Ma, the brothers have almost finished their training. When will they be able to go north?" a soldier asked.
"It's still far away, you look at the brothers of the navy, who is like you?"
Ma Feng glared at the soldier, and was about to say that he was going to practice for half an hour today, when the sound of drums came from the sea in the distance.
After hearing the sound of drums in the distance, the sailors at sea immediately began to beat the drums and issued a flag order. The drum sounded quickly on the island, and the officers also got the order at the first time.
"Assemble, the whole army is assembled, the commander is here!"
