"yes!"
Twenty or thirty veterans rushed forward and dragged the troublemakers out of the ranks.
Instead of pulling him down, they followed Xie Yuan's instructions, pinning him to the ground on the platform and beating him with military batons in front of all the new recruits.
Bang!
Bang!
The thick wooden sticks fell heavily on their bodies, and the men let out shrill screams.
As the wooden sticks rose and fell, blood began to seep into their clothes.
Xie Yuan clenched his fists, trying his best to maintain a calm expression.
As someone who traveled from the future, she instinctively felt uncomfortable seeing such a bloody and brutal scene.
But she had to persevere, and she had to do it.
Make an example of someone!
To intimidate these new recruits and achieve the desired training results as quickly as possible, this is the only way.
In addition, Xie Yuan also needs to find out the various spies and informants mixed in with the new recruits.
The new recruits below the platform were indeed terrified and fell silent, no longer daring to underestimate Xie Yuan, this woman.
Even Helian Chen looked at Xie Yuan with more admiration.
As expected of His Highness's wife, she is decisive and ruthless!
"Your Highness, the execution is complete."
After a long while, the dull thuds finally stopped.
"Hmm!" Xie Yuan responded with satisfaction, his gaze sweeping over the soldiers who had already fainted, and he said coldly, "Take them away and let the army doctors give them proper treatment!"
"yes!"
The veteran responded, and then, in pairs, carried the men away.
"Keep practicing!"
Xie Yuan calmly surveyed the entire room. "Attention, everyone! Listen to my command! Chests out, heads up, feet together..."
Xie Yuan began to train the new recruits step by step, just like during military training, to stand in formation and turn left and right.
Helian Chen found it strange, not understanding why his princess would have the soldiers go around in circles.
However, we can see that the queue, which was initially loose and sloppy, gradually became more straight and orderly.
Helian Chen vaguely understood something.
"Commander Helian!"
Just as Helian Chen was secretly pondering Xie Yuan's "method of training troops," Xie Yuan's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"Your subordinate is here!"
Helian Chen quickly stomped his heels hard, standing up straight.
He himself didn't realize that, without even noticing, he had started to imitate the movements of the new recruits and learned to "stand at attention"!
Xie Yuan curled his lips into a smile, but didn't say anything, and ordered, "Send someone to buy a thousand catties of meat!"
The key to employing people lies in clearly distinguishing between rewards and punishments, and applying both kindness and strictness.
Having demonstrated ruthless and decisive methods, it's time to offer some rewards.
"Yes!" Helian Chen hurriedly ordered someone to do it.
At noon, a thousand new recruits stood under the scorching sun, their clothes soaked with sweat, which dripped onto the ground.
They dared not move and stood at attention as Xie Yuan had instructed.
Guh~~~
I was exhausted and hot, and my stomach was rumbling loudly in response.
I'm starving!
I'm so hungry.
Suddenly, a strong aroma of meat wafted over.
Glug, glug~~
The aroma was so enticing that my stomach growled even louder.
The new recruits were swallowing hard; if it weren't for their aching bodies, they would have thought they were dreaming.
Meat!
They hardly ever eat meat throughout the year.
Just as the recruits were losing track of reality and their dreams, the Great Demon King's voice rang in their ears again—
"It's noon! Are you hungry?"
"Hungry!!!"
The Great Demon King's Consort said that in the military camp, one must respond immediately to any orders from superiors!
And you can't lie, you have to tell the truth!
If you can't do it, you'll be punished by standing at attention, or while others are resting and drinking water, the person who made the mistake will continue to train.
After being punished several times in just one morning, everyone learned their lesson!
Upon hearing Xie Yuan's question, the new recruits answered without hesitation.
"very good!"
Xie Yuan remained standing on the high platform. She pointed to several large pots beside her and asked, "What's stewing in these pots?"
"Meat!"
The people couldn't see what was in the big pot, but they could smell the delicious aroma.
"Correct answer, everyone will be rewarded with a bowl of meat soup."
The new recruits: ...We can't eat meat!
"Want to eat meat?"
"think!"
"Then train hard! Those who perform well will get to eat meat. Those who don't perform well will not only not get to eat meat, but they won't even get meat broth. I, the princess, will punish them!"
Xie Yuan began by setting conditions, clarifying standards, and establishing a reward and punishment mechanism.
The meat broth in the large pot boiled, bubbling and steaming, its rich aroma wafting across the training ground.
Like tiny hooks, they relentlessly lured at the cravings in everyone's stomachs.
Their eyes gleamed green, and saliva gushed from their mouths.
"Train hard! Eat lots of meat!" Xie Yuan suddenly shouted.
"Yes! Train hard! Eat lots of meat!" The recruits shouted at the top of their lungs, as if the cry came from the depths of their souls.
At noon, they didn't get to eat meat, but Xie Yuan kept his promise and made sure everyone had a bowl of meat soup.
In the afternoon, training continued, and the new recruits were incredibly enthusiastic.
In the morning, I was scared, but in the afternoon, I was tempted by the steaming hot meat sizzling on the high platform...
But for whatever reason, the recruits performed exceptionally well.
Seeing that Xie Yuan had trained the new recruits so well in just one day, Helian Chen was once again impressed.
that is--
"Your Highness, why do you always make the soldiers walk around? And make them clean the barracks and fold the blankets?"
