In the early morning, the whole city of Tianjin was still sleeping in silence.

On the beach thirty miles away from the east army horse farm in the city, all the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang New Army were called to train before dawn. Because today is a big day, the commander of the newly established army, Wang Chenhao, will also participate in the training. Therefore, both the officers and the soldiers are full of energy, and want to see how Wang Chenhao performs.

Wang Chenhao is busy with official business every day, and two hours of training time is not so easy for him. Based on the three reasons of gathering the morale of the army, exercising his physical fitness, and winning 100,000 taels of silver, Wang Chenhao tried his best to arrange his time in the morning and evening, so that he would not delay his normal work.

70% of the training outline of the new army is based on the German Army's standards, while the rest is the training method of the People's Liberation Army that Wang Chenhao added.

Starting from five in the morning, the first item is 10 kilometers of heavy-bearing off-road.

The soldiers of the recruit company were wearing jackets and trousers, and carrying bags containing five kilograms of sand on their backs, running hard on the beach by the sea.

Since half of them were eliminated, standard military uniforms and weapons have not been issued. Of course, Wang Chenhao couldn't stand the military uniforms and weapons of the old army, so the new military uniforms and purchased weapons were in a tense production and transportation, and they were not distributed until the training ended in the first three months.

Hundreds of queues ran along the beach, shouting various slogans. The company leaders of more than 150 recruit companies shouted step commands from time to time. The soldiers shouted loudly and continued to run with sweat.

The sea breeze roars, the waves kept coming and making noise.

The soldiers' shoes were quickly wet by sea water. One shoe print was slashed down and was quickly washed and adjusted by sea water. Then another shoe print was slashed on and then washed away.

The shoe prints kept stepping on, the sea water kept washing away, and the two sides were like rivals. Until the last soldier passed, the sea wiped off his shoe prints and finally won.

"Didn't you say that the coach is here? Where is it? Why didn't you see it?"

"It's not a show again, right?"

"Officials know how to fool us ordinary people!"

"This time it's not a show. I heard from the brothers behind that the Grandmaster will follow you."

"Why didn't you see anyone?"

"You are a pig's brain! Can a handsome scholar pass us? It's naturally the end!"

"Why do you run slowly and wait and see the handsome guy?"

"Are you stupid? Those who are behind will be eliminated. I still expect to earn military pay to support my family!"

"It's true. Just the handsome man's body, he ran for twenty miles with ten kilograms of sand on his back. I admire him even if he can follow him!"

...

The soldiers from each recruit company were muttering constantly, and at first, they started to whisper, and gradually there were more and more people, making the platoon leaders on the side of the team heard it.

"Damn, I still have the strength to speak, right? Let me run quickly! Go beyond the company ahead!"

As the platoon leader spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and took a whip to beat people. The recruits suddenly fell silent and ran faster.

But it was said that our new recruit division commander Wang Chenhao was quite capable of running at the beginning, not too far behind. But he soon fell behind with exhaustion and was overwhelmed by one company after another.

This Wang Dashuai knew in his heart that he could not escape to the army, but his self-esteem was still slightly hit. Fortunately, Hannagan also liked morning jogging, and he supported Wang Chenhao in training, so it was not too embarrassing to have him accompany Wang Chenhao. When there were about twenty personal soldiers including Li Guodong, they dared not surpass Wang Chenhao and ran to the front.

When Wang Chenhao ran for the first time, the speed was hard to say. It was almost snail's speed at the back, but Wang Chenhao finally insisted on running to the destination.

Hannagan encouraged him, as long as Wang Chenhao can persevere, he will win.

After the five-kilometer off-road end, there is a group breakfast. The scene where more than 20,000 people eat together in a row, which is naturally spectacular.

But it was not until the officers and soldiers finished their breakfast that Wang Chenhao ran to the destination accompanied by Hannagan and Li Guodong and his personal soldiers.

When Wang Chenhao appeared in front of everyone with sweat and panting, all the officers and soldiers were shocked and stood up and looked at Wang Chenhao quietly.

Wang Chenhao ran at the end, worried that the recruits would laugh at him, and he didn't know who shouted.

"Good handsome guy!"

"Good handsome guy!"

...

Everyone immediately started to shout, and the thunderous applause scared Wang Chenhao.

Hannagan turned around and looked at Wang Chenhao and said, "Congratulations to Lord Wang, you won their respect on the first day!"

Wang Chenhao smiled tiredly and said, "I thought they would laugh at me, but as you said, being able to persevere is victory."

Hannagan nodded and agreed: "But if you can stick with it, it will work better."

Wang Chenhao joked: "Of course, I have to stick to the bet of 100,000 taels. If I lose, I have no money to pay it back!"

After saying that, the two laughed.

Wang Chenhao trained for a morning and had breakfast with the soldiers in the military camp, and truly shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers.

Wang Chenhao's grades were naturally unsightly. At first, he was worried that he would definitely make the soldiers laugh at the first time, but the fact was the opposite. No one cared about how Wang Chenhao's grades were, but he won the respect of the soldiers.

The coach personally got off the training ground, so his subordinates naturally could not be idle.

Wang Chenhao's leading role seems to have played a big role, and other generals dare not be lazy. Especially some people who have received favor from Wang Chenhao do not dare to slack off.

In order to inspire the enthusiasm of officers and soldiers for training and loyalty, Wang Shizhen wrote some morale-inspiring songs and lyrics and lyrics and lyrics after communicating with Wang Chenhao, which made the army's spiritual outlook new.

It is indeed a good thing to have a strong general under your command, but if you cannot control a strong general, it will be a disaster for the head coach. Controlling talents is crucial to the leader. Wang Chenhao is a future person, so he naturally attaches more importance to it.

There are two basic ways to control people: physical control and spiritual control. Physical control comes from the needs of survival and restricts human life, and the result will often lead to spiritual control. Spiritual control comes from the needs of development, control people's spirit, or grasp someone's "shorts" and "handles" to make them obey the driving force; or grasp people's hand of desire, give people benefits, make them "softs of people's hands", thereby achieving the goal of controlling people.

If the person being controlled is compared to a grinding donkey, "big stick" and "carrot" are the most commonly used methods for the manipulator: a carrot is hanging from the front to attract people forward, and a big stick is dancing from behind to inspire people to move forward. The former caters to people's desires and needs, while the latter threatens people's physical safety.

Li Hongzhang, who is a skilled man, is a veteran in this field. When he learned that Wang Chenhao was in the barracks himself, he guessed Wang Chenhao's intentions. Therefore, he ordered Yang Shixiang to reveal some of his secrets of military training to Wang Chenhao's cave: "The military training matter looks complicated, but it is actually very simple. The main thing is to practice 'absolute obey orders'. We hold officials and money in one hand and sword in the other. If we obey, we will have officials and money, and if we don't obey, we will eat the knife."

Based on Li Hongzhang's experience, Wang Chenhao summed up that "officials and money" are the "carrots" in front of soldiers, and "knife" is the "big stick" behind soldiers. Only the former will make people proud, while only the latter will make people afraid. Only the two can be both kind and powerful, and both soft and hard can make people convinced for others to drive them.

Wang Chenhao has used this technique of controlling people for the new military officers. He used strict military laws and military rules to form a cruel and ruthless killing stick, and those who are dissatisfied will be beaten. He also used official positions, silver reward system and personal training to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, so as to win over the morale of the army and let the soldiers sacrifice their lives.
