Xiliang Iron Ride

Chapter 8 Mr. Zhang

Jia Rong asked these instructors to go back to do more ideological work for these young soldiers. After all, they are still children, and they will be homesick after leaving home for a long time.

After lunch, Jia Rong found General Zhu again and told him a series of his ideas, including the problem of adding meals for soldiers. After hearing this, General Zhu agreed to Jia Rong's idea without much consideration, and gave Jia Rong strong support and asked him to let go.

General Zhu's behavior surprised Jia Rong, and even looked at General Zhu much better. General Zhu looked good.

In fact, Jia Rong didn't know that this was Mr. Zhang's credit. He saw that Jia Rong's method was feasible. At that time, he told General Zhu that if this training method was really effective, then not all the credit was his.

General Zhu usually trusts Mr. Zhang very much. After listening to Mr. Zhang's words, he was also in a burst of oversation and agreed.

So, Jia Rong felt that everything was going so well today.

Jia Rong came to the kitchen and conveyed the meaning of General Zhu. He subdivided the rice in the kitchen into three-class, first-class rice: two white steamed buns, one bowl of broth; second-class rice is the same as usual, two steamed buns and one bowl of porridge; as for the third-class rice, it is a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge; so as to achieve the reward and punishment of training.

Throughout the afternoon, the training in the field was in full swing, struggling towards the quota of a good phalanx; while Jia Rong patrolled all the way to guide the shortcomings of each phalanx training.

After seeing the training effect, Mr. Zhang, who was not far away, also praised this practice, saying that Jia Rong thought of a good method.

At the end of the afternoon training, it was very different from the morning. Although it still did not reach the level of imagination, it showed that everyone was working very hard.

First of all, Jia Rong asked everyone to stand in military posture. After about 10 minutes of military posture, Jia Rong selected a good phalanx and a different phalanx; the good phalanx is the first, seventh and eight phalanxes, and the poor phalanxes are the fifth, ninth and tenth phalanxes.

After being selected, some people were happy and some were worried. The young soldiers who were rated as good phalanx were very happy; the young soldiers who were rated as bad phalan were like defeated roosters, dejected, and even their instructors looked ugly.

At this time, Jia Rong walked on the high platform in front of the training ground and waved his hand to tell everyone to be quiet. This time, the quiet was relatively fast. It seemed that the training effect was obvious.

Jia Rong nodded with satisfaction and said, "Today, everyone's performance is very good. I hope you can continue to work hard in the phalanx. Don't be discouraged by the soldiers who are rated as poor phalanx. You can afford it. Try to strive for a good ranking next time. I believe you will get good results next time."

When eating, divide the phalanx into three parts according to the original plan.

People who are optimistic about the square array eat white steamed buns and drink broth. Although they are greedy, there is nothing they can do. They can only secretly refuel in their hearts. Next time, they must choose a good square array, and also eat white steamed buns and drink broth.

Being rated as a good phalanx is not only the soldiers cheering, but also their coaches walk with a smile and feel face.

Seeing such an effect, Jia Rong was also sincerely happy. He believed that only by comparison could he make progress.

After dinner, Jia Rong called each coach to his room to talk. During this period, he praised the good phalanx and encouraged the instructors of the poor phalanx to avoid bad emotions.

At the same time, Jia Rong showed them the training of squatting and sitting posture, and even let them practice walking in unison, especially emphasizing military discipline and prohibiting them. As for the positive steps of the troops in later generations, Jia Rong did not teach them, because he felt that he did not need these at this stage.

When each coach had no questions about these movements, Jia Rong asked them to go back to rest and let them go back and think about how to train their phalanx well.

The next day, the training of each phalanx was in full swing, and the coach's beatings and shouts came one after another over the training ground.

After last night's meal, the competition between the phalanx has become more fierce; the soldiers who are optimistic about the phalanx drink broth and eat white steamed buns. They are very uncomfortable. They are the same soldiers, and they don't want to eat anything worse than others, and they are secretly cheering. The soldiers who performed well yesterday naturally want to keep their own success. They also want to drink broth and eat white steamed buns.

This kind of training atmosphere is what Jia Rong wants to see most.

After a few days of training, this unit has been very different from when it first arrived. It can be banned, know how to stand in military posture, and how to defend military discipline. It also has a little momentum to walk together, which is inseparable from Jia Rong's efforts.

After today's training, Jia Rong came to Mr. Zhang's barracks. Because he saw the training effect of Jia Rong, Mr. Zhang was also particularly polite to Jia Rong this time.

Seeing Jia Rong coming, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "I don't know what's the important thing for Coach Jia to come here?"

Seeing that Mr. Zhang was so enthusiastic, Jia Rong hurriedly hugged his fist and said, "Mr. Zhang is polite. I think that after these days of military training, it has begun to be effective, and other projects can be trained; for example, some military gun essentials, archery and so on can start training them."

Mr. Zhang thought for a moment and said, "In that case, I will give you 100 sergeants, and you will assign them to train these soldiers; but these soldiers only need to learn how to use guns, and they can't learn more."

From Mr. Zhang's words, Jia Rong also heard that he had something difficult to say, but Jia Rong said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang. I will do my best to complete this matter."

After hearing this, Mr. Zhang waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. I heard that Coach Jia is from Li's Village. I see that you talk and have extraordinary knowledge, and I don't know where the teacher is?"

"It's good for my husband to call me Zhiyuan in the future. My family is from the mountains and fields. I don't want others to know his surname. Please forgive me." Jia Rongdao. Jia Rong knew that people in ancient times had words, so he thought of a word for himself; he took the meaning from "Aspiration should be high", and also made up a mountain teacher for himself to add a certain sense of mystery to his identity.

Mr. Zhang waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. The family teacher must be a strange person in the mountains. Zhiyuan? I don't know what to do?"

"The ambition should be high" was later said by Zhuge Liang. Of course, it is difficult for people nowadays to understand its meaning.

Jia Rong explained, "We should be ambitious!"

After hearing this, Mr. Zhang clapped his hands and said, "What a good ambition should be high, good words and good words. I don't know what Zhiyuan's ambition is?"

After meditating, Jia Rong said, "The man should be a student, Huo, expel the Xiongnu, fight in the battlefield, and protect the country."

Even Mr. Zhang was excited when he heard the righteous words and said, "Zhiyuan's ambition is really extraordinary."

Jia Rong asked modestly, "Have you asked your name yet?"

Mr. Zhang said with a straight face, "I dare not say expensive, surname Zhang, Zirong."

After this, Jia Rong became more familiar with Mr. Zhang. After all, he is now working under the name of the general surnamed Zhu, and Mr. Zhang can know from General Zhu's attitude towards him that Mr. Zhang must be his confidant.

It is of great benefit to Jia Rong to have a good relationship with Mr. Zhang, not to mention that Mr. Zhang is also very good.

"Zhiyuan, if you have nothing to do, you can implement your military training strategy; don't worry, if the military training is good, I will ask for credit for you in front of General Zhu. After seeing Li County Magistrate, I will also recommend you to him." Mr. Zhang said.

Jia Rong was also happy to have a relationship with County magistrate Li after hearing this. Mr. Zhang must not be simple, and he was more determined to make friends with him.

According to Mr. Zhang's explanation, Jia Rong found General Zhu and asked for a hundred military athletes.

Hearing Jia Rong say that he meant Mr. Zhang, General Zhu didn't say anything and asked Jia Rong to take his handwritten letter to find the dignitaries of Li County magistrate. It can be seen that Mr. Zhang is definitely General Zhu's confidant.

With General Zhu's handwritten letter, Jia Rong walked to the county government office in the city; about a quarter of an hour, Jia Rong came to the county government and found the residence of the county magistrate Li all the way.

With blue bricks and red tiles, the roof is more than three feet higher than the surrounding residents. At first glance, it is the residence of the rich and noble people.

Jia Rong stepped forward and knocked on the door ring. Soon, with a "squeak", the red paint door opened a crack, and an old man over half a hundred years old came out.

Seeing Jia Rong, he asked, "I don't know what's your business?"

"A coach under General Zhu came today with General Zhu's letter to discuss important matters with the county magistrate of Li and begged his uncle for accommodation." Jia Rong replied respectfully. As the saying goes, the seven-grade officials in front of the prime minister's door, he doesn't want to delay his military training plan because of a little thing.

The old man looked at Jia Rong carefully again and said, "Give me the letter. I'll take it to the master. Please take it for a moment."

Jia Rong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "It's hard work."

After about a cup of tea, the old man just came out of the house and said to Jia Rong, "Master, please."

Jia Rong thanked him and followed the old man into the house all the way. There are all kinds of flowers and trees planted in the house, giving people a fresh feeling. The layout of the house is made by famous people at first glance.

After a while, Jia Rong followed the old man to the place where the county magistrate lived; the old man motioned Jia Rong to go in, while he stood outside the door and waited.

After entering the door, Jia Rong found that this was the study; there were all kinds of books on the bookshelf. Unlike his own era, the books were made of piles of bamboo sticks.

Although paper was invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper was not widely spread in the world, but only among the upper social people. It was not until the Wei, Jin, Northern and Southern Dynasties that paper became common in the world. So when people move at this time, they can pack a few carriages just by books, which is very troublesome.
