Qiming 1158

Chapter 1302 They are not independent
The instructors of the Ming Army laughed and told the story of how they were saved by the Ming army after going bankrupt and wandering about to starve to death.

The top soldiers of the Song Army were fascinated by these stories. They were very longing and interested in these stories, and they also had many questions.

For example, they do not know what a revolution is, what liberation and oppression are.

The instructors carefully told them what revolution was, what liberation and oppression were, why they went bankrupt, why they couldn't get enough to eat, and why they fell to this point.

They were originally peasant households with property, or handicraft practitioners who established and worked, why did they go bankrupt?Is it just because of natural disasters and bad luck?
No, it's mainly man-made disasters.

It is the gentlemen, the oppression and exploitation of the superior people.

The officers at all levels who played with women in the city of Hangzhou did not realize that the major soldiers under their command were being baptized by revolutionary ideas, and did not know that these Ming army instructors were not just here to teach military skills.

They told the soldiers about turning over, about the revolution, about the treatment of the country's peasants, about the treatment of the country's military dependents, about the daily treatment of the army and the rules and regulations of the army, about Su Yonglin's philosophy, and about how the founders of the country were in those days. Revolutionary in Shandong.

They were unselfish and very strict in their training, tossing the soldiers of the Song Army to death.

But when they communicate in private, they are gentle and amiable.

The Song Army gave special food treatment to the instructors of the Ming Dynasty, but the instructors of the Ming Dynasty often took their special food treatment and shared it with the top soldiers of the Song Army they trained. They had meat to eat with them and vegetables. Eat with them.

Everyone squatted to eat together, or sat cross-legged on the ground to eat, chatting and laughing while eating.

The top soldiers of the Song army also changed quickly.

From the very beginning, their fear, alertness, worry and disgust towards the Ming army instructors gradually changed, they were full of goodwill towards the Ming army instructors, and were convinced by the Ming army instructors' clear-cut way of doing things.

They gradually regarded the Ming army instructors as their superiors.

Compared with the real officers, they were more willing to follow the instructions and orders of the Ming army instructors.

When they treated the Ming army instructors, they didn't have the kind of superficial obedience and hatred and fear that they treated the Song army officers. They were simply admiring and yearning.

After this feeling gradually became the mainstream, many big-headed soldiers clearly felt a strange feeling of separation.

When dealing with the Ming army instructors, although the training was strict, the instructors never used lynching to punish the soldiers. They had a standard set of punishment rules. All punishments were fair, just and open, and they were carried out in front of everyone. out of bounds.

In public affairs, in private, the instructors are amiable, so when the big-headed soldiers get along with the instructors, they will feel relaxed and warm like never before.

However, when their fat-brained officer came back from the city of Hangzhou, it would bring them a great sense of oppression and fear.

After the officer came back, the relaxation and warmth disappeared, leaving only a terrifying sense of oppression.

It would be better if the chief came back drunk and fell asleep, and everyone wouldn't be very scared.

It would be better if the officer wasn't drunk or half-drunk and half-awake, but not obviously angry. He would say a few words at most, and he wouldn't do anything to everyone.

If the officer comes back angry, it will be the worst.

The officers will definitely beat and scold these big-headed soldiers, and use them as sandbags to vent their dissatisfaction. Beating and scolding is considered civilized, and it is not strange to cut with a knife. All kinds of torture can be regarded as a daily appetizer. .

Therefore, the feeling of getting along with the instructor and getting along with the commander has created a stronger and stronger sense of separation in the hearts of the big-headed soldiers. The big-headed soldiers faced the brutality of the commander and the gentleness of the instructor, and they didn't even need to choose. Just vote with your feet.

Instructor, good.

Sir, it's not good.

Simple distinction, easy to understand.

Finally, some big-headed soldiers who could not bear the torture could not bear it anymore, and went to the instructors in groups to complain, telling the instructors about the unfair treatment they had suffered, and asking the Minguo instructors to help them and let them out of their misery.

The duties of an instructor in the Ming Dynasty were almost to train soldiers and teach the military training tactics, etc., and did not involve the daily management of the army.

Therefore, after the lecture, the Ming army instructors would return to the Ming army barracks, or live in a separate instructor barracks, without interfering with the actions of the Song army officers.

So at the beginning, the instructors were helpless when faced with the soldiers coming to cry and plead, expressing their helplessness that they could only try their best to persuade but could not actually interfere in Song Jun's internal affairs.

In this regard, the big-headed soldiers felt very painful. They even privately expressed to the instructors more than once that they very much wanted to become the Ming army, instead of continuing to work for the commander as the Song army.

If they hadn't seen the treatment of the Ming army, and had not experienced getting along with the Ming army instructors, they might not have such a "rebellious" idea, and they might continue to be the chief soldiers and the personal slaves of the officers. .

But after they felt the atmosphere inside the Ming army and experienced part of the treatment of the Ming army, they would never be able to return to the state of waiting for death in the past.

It's the same feeling as being stuck in a quagmire, knowing that you're going to be engulfed in the quagmire but unable to do anything about it.

Dying suddenly is completely different from the feeling of knowing that you are going to die but there is nothing you can do about it and you have to wait for it to die.

The feeling of the soldiers of the Song Army is that of knowing that they are going to die, but there is nothing they can do but wait to die.

It suffocates them.

As time went on, more and more big-headed soldiers felt strongly dissatisfied with the rough and cruel behavior of their superiors, and this strong dissatisfaction continued to grow as time went on.

At the right time, the Ming army instructors finally stood up.

In the face of the rebellion and brutality of the Song army officers, they clearly expressed their dissatisfaction and anger, and publicly stood up during training to protect the soldiers who were beaten and scolded by the officers for no reason.

The showdown between the instructor and the officer seems to have started from this moment.

However, the Song Army officers who were sternly stern did not dare to really do anything to the Ming Army instructors.

Although they were very reluctant to lose face, they confronted the Ming army instructors in front of the soldiers. However, when the Ming army instructors expressed that they would protest strongly to their superiors, these officers all softened and never held back. Raise a tough shelf.

After all, they are not independent.

The reason they are not independent is that Jiangnan is not independent either.

In terms of national character, they are weak, and they are the vassal of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, in the face of the protests raised by the officers of the upper country against them, they were afraid of causing a diplomatic incident, which would make "friends amazed" and thus affect their own future, so they could only swallow their anger and leave angrily after throwing a harsh word.

Of course, they still can't make it through in terms of face, so they still have to insist on maintaining their authority, and they will choose to punish and beat the soldiers who agree with the instructors in places where the instructors can't see it.

If you can't deal with the people of Ming, you can't deal with you?

However, these incidents were quickly noticed by the instructors of the Ming Dynasty, and they made a solemn protest to them again. They also took the injured soldiers to the instructor camp for treatment, and publicly sheltered the soldiers.

The instructors sternly warned them that if they did this again, they would make a stern protest to their superiors.

No doubt it makes sense.
