Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 379
Qiao Hong and Shi Xiu chatted together all morning, and at noon they had some casual lunch on the sidelines. People these days are not in the habit of eating lunch, even if the protection army has the conditions to eat lunch, But when the training is urgent, everyone still generally ignores lunch.

On a day of such a big training camp, lunch is just dry food from the kitchen with a pot of pulp. After lunch, everyone goes back to the barracks to rest immediately.

The whole body was covered in sweat, and it didn't matter what was dirty and smelly. The sergeants were all exhausted. After scrubbing indiscriminately, there was a lot of snoring in the barracks. In the afternoon, they whistled and assembled to continue training.

The protection army is not really hard-working people. After a morning of physical training, some teams are pulled to practice combat skills in the afternoon, while others sit in a place they call the lecture hall, listening to the officers' lectures, and talking about some things from the Supervisory Committee. Policy, the situation in Shandong and so on.

The more Qiao Hong looked at it, the more he felt that there was a way.

The protection army in front of him was completely different from the teams he had encountered before, because the training and life after training had been arranged in an orderly manner by the officers. These sergeants had no leisure to think about things outside the barracks, and their minds were very pure.

No wonder people can enter Qingzhou City without leaving the barracks for more than a month, and only such high-intensity training can cultivate a truly strong army.

Why can an army of hundreds of battles become an army? Because when an army is established, it has experienced successive battles in a short period of time. The soldiers in the team have no time to think about other things, so they can naturally hone a strong cohesion.

And the living conditions of the ordinary Forbidden Army at this time are actually not too bad, but the Forbidden Army only drills once every three to five days. If there is no time for practice, everyone's minds will naturally become wild, and they will distract their minds if they find something to do, really. When it comes to the battlefield, it must be far less organized than Shi Xiu's grenadiers.

The more Qiao Hong looked at it, the more he felt that this army came from a proper way. Qiao Hong only thought it was funny when he thought that Murong Yanda had doubted whether the protection army would run away when the battle in Qingzhou City was tense.

This army is completely different from other armies he has seen, and whoever runs away from this army will not run away.What's more, Qiao Hong felt that if, as Shi Xiu said, they could associate enough, there was no need for such a team to run away. How could anyone beat such a team?
At dinner, Qiao Hong and Shi Xiu arranged to have dinner together. Qiao Hong saw that the dishes on the table were quite clean, three meat and two vegetables, no big fish or meat, but the taste was not bad.

Qiao Hong smiled and said: "General Shi is such an elite leader, he lives frugally on weekdays."

Shi Xiu smiled: "I'm a poor soldier, I don't have much money, all I have to do is the expenses of the army."

Hearing this, Qiao Hong was surprised again. He thought that Shi Xiu had paid for the meal himself, but he didn't expect that it was also given by the army.

"Dare to ask, but the food and salary in your army are allocated to the troops to support themselves?"

He began to suspect that the guards outside must not be eating so well. The reason why Shi Xiu was able to eat meat dishes was because he had the right to allocate funds, so he let himself drink a little blood from the soldiers.

Hearing this, Shi Xiu shook her head hastily.

Introduced to Qiao Hong: "Although we are Xiao Zhao here, we also fire individually according to everyone's food standards."

He pointed to a few people present and said: "The two staff officers in our battalion, as well as me, the battalion commander, a missionary officer sent by the general meeting, and several masters in the fire room, a total of eight people gathered together. Let’s start a fire together, this stove is called Xiaozao, it’s just different from the big stove outside, there’s no difference in the amount.”

The mission officer next to him said with a smile: "There is still a difference. Our rank is higher, and each meal costs two cents more per person than ordinary soldiers."

Shi Xiu laughed loudly when he heard the words: "It's still your old Wang's calculations that are accurate."

Qiao Hong looked at the eyes of several people, a little in disbelief that there were so many good meals in front of him, and he couldn't believe that the soldiers outside were eating like this.

Shi Xiu and the missionary staff looked at each other, obviously the person from the Qingzhou government office misunderstood them, or the missionary staff took the initiative to explain.

The rules Sun Xin set for the Protectorate Army were similar to the way he was used to firing in the armies of later generations, divided into large and small ones.

Many people who have never been soldiers think that officers who eat small stoves mean more expensive meals, but this is not the case if they follow the rules.

The reason for the division of kitchens is that ordinary soldiers and officers eat at different times. Officers like Shi Xiu and the others have similar work and rest hours to civilian officials when they are not training. They work from nine to five, and sometimes they have meetings at night. Extra meals are needed, and ordinary soldiers need to train for patrols. If they all eat meals from one pot, they must accommodate each other.

Therefore, in the later generations of the Huaguo army, there were different stoves such as organ stoves and soldier stoves.

And Sun Xin transplanted this set to protect Junzhou.

The missionary teacher introduced: "For example, there are 100 people in our company, and the food standard for each person is ten yuan per meal. The food standard for each meal of these 100 people is consistent money. Every time the soldier cooks, the cost is about consistent money. meals."

"And there are only eight people in our organ stove, and the food standard per person per meal is also ten yuan, so a table of dishes for this meal is cooked according to the standard of eighty yuan."

"There are not many people in the cooking team for a hundred people, and it is impossible to do too many tricks. One person can not eat anything for ten yuan. A stir-fried meat dish plus radish and cabbage is enough."

"As for the stove, eight people can make it beautifully."

"For example, in summer, Qingzhou produces cantaloupe. It costs [-] yuan to cut a good melon, [-] yuan to cut half a catty of meat, [-] to [-] yuan to get a small fish, and then fry two vegetable dishes with rich oil. There are fish and meat. Eating this table of [-] Wen meals is enough for a person to feel comfortable."

After explaining this, Qiao Hong finally understood, and after carefully looking at the dishes on the table, he found that the dishes on the table looked very rich, but the actual cost was not high, just as the missionary of the reinforcement camp said.

In fact, what the missionaries didn’t say was that the reason why the government kitchen was better than the soldier’s kitchen was not because of the extra few cents in meal subsidies, but because the leaders were in front of them.

Cooking for a few leaders can naturally make a piece of grilled fish. It's really easy to start a small stove.

But can more than 100 people eat grilled fish in a big pot?

Just the preparatory work of scaling and killing fish can exhaust the cooking team to death.

Naturally, I just eat some steamed buns and then send them away. The meat is also a large piece of meat scalded with white water.

Sun Xin naturally also knew the drawbacks of separate stoves, the food standard was the same, but if the labor force of the cooking team was included in the cost, the standard of the stove was extremely high.

It's still an organ stove now, and if the protection army becomes bigger in the future, there will be more logistical troubles.

This problem was still a part of the grassroots management of the army when Sun Xin was a soldier in the previous life, and it would not be improved until many years after Sun Xin retired from the army, let alone with his current conditions.

It is his best effort to be able to carry it out reluctantly.

But Qiao Hong admired it even more. In his opinion, Shi Xiu and the others managed so many people, and they were able to honestly eat only the officers in the protection army. They were already as clean as water.

He couldn't even imagine how such a team was trained?

No wonder the training of the guards is motivated, it depends on fairness.
