Several people screamed and tried to get up, but as soon as they got up, they were kicked down by Zhang Shixun.
He got up again, and was kicked down again.
In the end, several people collapsed there, gasping for breath, and simply refused to get up.
Seeing a few people lying on the ground, unable to get up, Zhang Shixun scolded them with a smile, "The First Army actually has people like you, what an anomaly... Stop playing dead and get out of here!"
After hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief, finally passing the test.
They all got up from the ground with their teeth bared, saluted Zhang Shixun together, and walked out of the field supporting each other.
"interesting!"
Zhang Shixun looked at the backs of these people and talked to himself.
If these people go to the battlefield, they will definitely give the enemy a headache.
The rest of the fight was basically no suspense.
Although he hit hard, he knew how to strike just right, and tried to target the thickest parts of the flesh.
After one wave of screams after another, the fight finally ended.
"This is the gap, the gap between people." Zhang Shixun stood unscathed in the middle of the playground, looking around with disdain. "It's not that I'm too strong, but that you're too weak, as weak as a chick."
The whole audience was silent, listening quietly to the military leader's speech.
"You, a bunch of weaklings, dared to disregard the military regulations of the Great Song Dynasty and openly engage in a brawl in the dining tent. Your arrogance and the nature of your behavior are so despicable that I have no choice but to punish you... According to military regulations, you should have been beaten with a military stick, but I am soft-hearted and my heart is filled with pity. I can't bear to beat you bastards to pieces, so I resorted to this desperate measure and was willing to fight with you fools who have no respect for military law..."
"You're not stupid. None of you chose to be beaten with a military stick. You all know that a few dozen blows would leave you with skin and flesh torn at best, or even dead at worst. So, you all unanimously chose to fight the military leader... To tell you the truth, when I made this decision, I was expecting you to injure me, even cripple me. Just imagine, seventy or eighty people, even seventy or eighty pigs, could push me over, right?"
These words were a bit insulting, and the soldiers who participated in the fight blushed with embarrassment and lowered their heads.
"I see some of you practically stuffing your heads into your pants. What does this mean? It means you still have a sense of shame. That's good. That means you can still be saved. If you don't even have the most basic sense of shame, you're completely beyond salvation."
He stood in the middle of the drill ground, talking non-stop: "The officers' training has come to an end. You soldiers should have heard about their training. It was very strict. They had to get up before dawn to run, and practice standing postures and formations all day long. It was grueling at the end of the day. Many officers complained bitterly, and some even wanted to quit. The good news is that the vast majority of them persevered, and only a very small number used connections to leave the Tianwu Army... Fine! If you want to leave, go ahead. If it rains, it will rain, and if it wants to marry, it will marry. I don't want to say things like "coward" to provoke you. Whether you are a coward or not, you know it in your heart."
At this moment, a man stood up and asked, "Military Commander, what do you mean by that?"
Zhang Shixun took a look and saw that it was the commander of the fifth command. His surname was Wang, but he didn't remember his specific name at all.
"Oh! Commander Wang, didn't you get transferred through connections? Why are you still here?" Zhang Shixun said, his face darkening. He shouted to the military judge, "Beat this man out of the barracks!"
The military judge didn't even think twice and waved his hand. Several military police armed with officers ran towards Commander Wang.
"I haven't been officially transferred yet. Before this, I was still a member of the First Army. Commander, you can't..." Before he could finish his words, Zhang Shixun said from afar: "Military police, take action!"
The military police did not dare to hesitate and raised their batons to hit him on the head.
Commander Wang fled in panic, his head in his hands. He angrily said as he ran, "Zhang Shixun, you dare to rely on your power to wantonly assault an official appointed by the imperial court? Just wait, someone will come after you."
Zhang Shixun sneered, "I've taken note of what you said, and I've taken note of you too. If you don't settle accounts with me, I'll settle accounts with you. Let's wait and see."
An episode that came and went quickly.
"You all saw this. This guy is a typical villain and coward. Seeing that the First Army was struggling and the training was tough, he relied on his connections to try to get out. I have always despised people like him."
"If any of you are afraid of hardship, you can leave. However, it's best to leave now. I won't force you to stay."
The playground was quiet and no one was talking.
Zhang Shixun asked again, "Why? No one wants to leave?"
A soldier bravely asked, "Master, if we soldiers want to leave, what will happen to our military status?"
"If you leave, the First Army is already doing its best by not classifying you as a deserter. You still want to retain your military status? What's your idea?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"The First Army has also taken into consideration the frail and sickly soldiers and will establish a dedicated logistics battalion to accommodate them. Anyone who believes they fall into this category can register with Deputy Commander He Ji. As long as the investigation proves their claims, they'll be fined." Zhang Shixun felt he had said enough, so he raised his voice and said, "All officers and soldiers of the First Army, formal training will begin tomorrow. No officer or soldier is allowed to slack off. Violators will be punished by military law!"
"yes!"
The officers were the first to rise and shout their orders.
Zhang Shixun nodded with satisfaction. The effectiveness of the training had been reflected in the officers. As long as there were formal occasions, they would follow the training requirements and were no longer as casual as before.
"Everyone, disband!"
"Yes!" All the officers stood at attention and answered.
The soldiers scattered in disorder.
Zhang Shixun believed that in two months, these soldiers would be as well-behaved as the officers.
Gao Yanei came over and asked, "Brother, do you know whose connections Commander Wang has?"
"General Gao Dian gave me a heads-up and told me that this guy has a strong backing and he didn't want me to embarrass him."
"Hehe! You embarrassed him just now. You've already made it difficult for him."
"What can we do if we embarrass him?"
Zhang Shixun walked towards his dormitory.
"His uncle is a royal relative, on the Empress Dowager's side."
Zhang Shixun said disdainfully, "So what if they're royal relatives? Can they bite my dick off?"
Gao Yanei gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother, you are awesome! I admire you."
As soon as Zhang Shixun entered the room, Gao Yanei followed him in.
"Brother, how long do we have to train soldiers?"
