As the camp construction gradually improved, production activities could not be carried out on a large scale due to seasonal reasons, so Zeng Wangcai's team increased the amount of military training.
Five kilometers are required every morning and evening, and they must run fully armed and carry weights. In addition, a small number of training projects have been set up in the training ground and are currently in use.
Under such circumstances, the soldiers' consumption was alarming. The price did not increase even if the quantity was increased. The supplies provided by the division headquarters could only ensure that the soldiers were full, but could not ensure that they ate well.
Therefore, many of the prey hunted by the warriors were eaten, which allowed the warriors to maintain good physical condition.
After finishing the five-kilometer race, the team, consisting of more than twenty people, except for those on guard duty and those who were on cooking duty, returned in high spirits, singing all the way.
"Platoon leader, let the soldiers practice shooting this morning. I heard that you promised the deputy platoon leader to make beggar's chicken today." The second squad leader slurped his saliva and said, "The beggar's chicken you made is so delicious!"
"Yes, platoon leader, do more!" Third squad leader Xie An followed up.
Squad leader Lin Fusheng moved his mouth but didn't follow up, but his expression betrayed him.
It is not difficult for Zeng Wangcai to make beggar's chicken. He only needs to add the ingredients and someone else will do the rest.
When Zheng Yilin saw so many people wanting to eat, he was so distressed that he couldn't breathe: "What are you going to eat? Beggars don't want chickens. With your shooting skills, you have reduced a three-jin chicken to two-jin. If you don't want to eat it, I won't eat it either.
"You guys in Class 2 always like to brag about how you used traps to catch prey in your hometown before you joined the army. What about you now?"
These words made Yutie and everyone in Class 2 feel embarrassed and ashamed.
They did set traps to catch prey at home before, but now they are joining the army. Once people have advanced tools, who would use backward ones?
It's much easier to shoot than to set a trap.
It's like getting used to high-definition, uncensored pixels, and suddenly asking you to watch 480 resolution with codes, who wouldn't decisively become a VIP user?
"The deputy platoon leader is right!" Zeng Wangcai first affirmed his deputy Zheng Yilin in front of the soldiers and maintained his authority. "Bullets are not shot randomly. You must strive for accuracy in the future. So, we will set up a reward system later. Whoever shoots accurately will eat meat, and whoever shoots inaccurately will do the work..."
It's time to start improving the warriors' military capabilities.
After taking advantage of the topic, Zeng Wangcai roughly talked about the reward system and assessment standards. For example, when hunting, only the head, eyes and other parts of the prey are allowed, and the prey is not allowed to be beaten to the point where it is unrecognizable, like a car accident scene.
"But everyone has worked hard recently." Zeng Wangcai then changed the subject, "Today your platoon leader's wife is treating you to pheasant. We can't have too many, three per squad."
This is to emphasize with facts that the prey obtained by Zhang Xiuzhi and her team was not the product of the army.
Zheng Yilin opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. He had no way of objecting. He couldn't control Zhang Xiuzhi and he couldn't beat her.
As for acquisitions, their platoon does not have the authority to do so yet. Currently, this authority lies with the logistics department.
"Platoon leader, there are three in a squad, so we have nine in three squads." Second squad leader Yu Tie came over to remind him, "Platoon leader's sister-in-law just arrived here yesterday, she is unfamiliar with the place, what should she do if she can't get so many?"
"Don't you believe in their abilities?" Zeng Wangcai glanced sideways.
"Not so good!" Yu Tie was a straightforward person, saying without beating around the bush, "If it's bad, which squad is short of food? We have to let them know first, or the platoon leader can send us to help."
"No need, I guess they will be back soon!" Zeng Wangcai waved his hand and went back first.
Back to camp, ready to have breakfast and then start morning training.
Due to limited conditions, the soldiers usually took their meals with bowls and went back to their tents to eat, or just squatted somewhere to eat. Only a few people ate in the "canteen".
Today it was the turn of several soldiers in the first squad to make breakfast, which consisted of a pot of corn grits porridge and three cornmeal buns for each person.
The soldiers lined up in a long line and moved slowly to get their meals.
After beating less than one-third of the people, Zhang Xiuzhi and Zeng Youhuo came back.
"Platoon leader, my sister-in-law is back, with so many pheasants and rabbits..." Third squad leader Xie An had sharp eyes and was the first to see it, and he shouted to report.
When they heard there was a pheasant, the soldiers rushed over to look for it.
"So many pheasants, wow, so many!"
"Wow, what's the count, 123..."
"Seventeen, my God, my sister-in-law is so amazing."
The soldiers were very excited because the beggar's chicken was ready for dinner.
"See? This is their ability. Don't think that only your kind can hunt and set traps!" Xie An couldn't help but mock Yu Tie.
Yutie didn't take it seriously and squatted down curiously to look at the pheasant thrown on the ground.
"This chicken... is so strange!" Yu Tie murmured, "It's different from the breed we have over there, it's very fat..."
"Sergeant, our Gada pheasants are not tasty, not as delicious as the pheasants here. It should be that the local climate and soil determine the local chickens." said a soldier.
Zeng Wangcai almost thought that the soldier was making a dirty joke, but fortunately the soldier said "chicken" without following it with the word "bar".
Although guinea fowl and pheasants are similar, there are still differences between them. It is not surprising that people like Yutie find problems.
But since I've discovered it, no matter what, I guarantee you won't fart after eating it.
After working all night and early in the morning, Zhang Xiuzhi and her team reaped a total of 17 pheasants, two gray-haired hares, and a 20-pound flat-headed beast - the Hog Badger.
