While the Wuzhai Fort began its harvest, Huang Laifu was also preparing to train troops.

On the 15th, Huang Laifu offered a five-day holiday to recruit new flag soldiers. On the 20th, the new recruits who were on holiday returned to Wuzhai Fort one after another.

Xinglingzi Xiaoshan Village, Zhang Dasanjia.

This is a low mud thatched house, but at this time there are large buckets of soup noodles and some vegetables and fish. In the small mountain village, this kind of life is enough to be enviable. Compared with the previous life of the Zhang family, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground. Intentionally or unintentionally, these days, more people come to visit the door than before.

These are the Anjiayin that Zhang Dasan brought back from the army of Wuzhai Fort, and the cloth rice and flour brought by Wuzhai Fort to improve his life. If these five taels of Anjiayin are frugal, it will be enough for the Zhang family to live for several years.

The meal was over. At this time, the third son's father, the third son's wife, who had entered the door three years ago, was preparing some baggage and making the final preparations for Zhang Dasan's trip. The third son's wife and her wife were both crying and reluctant to leave. The third son's wife even told Zhang Dasan what to pay attention to while crying. Zhang Dasan was quite impatient when he heard this. At this time, his heart had already flown back to Wuzhai Fort, and just said, "I know, I know, mom, all these children know, you don't need to say anything."

Seeing that the old woman had been told, the third son's father also said, "The old woman knows how to cry. San'er's trip is a good thing. No one can ask for it, so why are you crying? It's really a woman's family experience. You don't know how kind the Qianhu people in the fort are. It's definitely right that the third son follows him to do things." As he said that, the third son laughed loudly.

At this military family meeting, after the third son's father went to Wuzhai Fort once, he thought that his son went to Wuzhai Fort to join the flag army, which was a very correct decision. Later, he became a firm supporter of the son of the Zhang family. After joining the army, his son not only received generous monthly military pay, but also had various military family treatments, which were enough to make his family live, which was much better than digging food in the fields. He also brought back five taels of Anjiayin. In recent years, his family's life has been no problem.

Besides, when the new army returned home with their families, the officers and households of Wuzhai Fort brought back with gongs and drums, and brought rice, flour and cloth. Even the village chief was alarmed at that time. The envious expressions of the villagers when they watched made the third son's father remember it now. The third son's father in the Datou Army also heard a lot of the third son's father in normal times. It was so miserable that he was the only one who was the soldiers of the Qianhu of Huang Laifu of Wuzhai Fort have such honor. They were all heroes, and this soldier was worth it.

"Are you happy? You know how old man said to me." After hearing the third son's father's words, the third son's mother let down tears and replied to the third son's father.

"Okay, OK, it's getting late, it's time for the third son to hurry on his way." The third son's father didn't argue with his wife, but just laughed.

The family sent Zhang Dasan out of the doorstep of the village and left the intersection. Along the way, the villagers who heard the news greeted Zhang Dasan enthusiastically, and everyone also sent Zhang Dasan to the entrance of the village.

Everyone said: "Three sons, do it well, don't embarrass us Xinglingzi Village people..."

Zhang Dasan's face was radiant and full of brightness. He said, "Don't worry, fellow villagers, juniors will definitely not embarrass you."

He said to his daughter-in-law who was holding her three-year-old eldest son: "Cuizhi, take good care of her parents-in-law, I'll leave."

He knelt down and kowtowed to the third son's father and the third son's mother, stood up, made up his bag, and exhaled to the sky, leaving with great pride.

...

This situation also continued to occur in various mountain villages, village forts, and civil forts. The newly enlisted flag soldiers bid farewell to their families and walked into the barracks of Wuzhai Fort with all kinds of thoughts and dreams.

On the afternoon of August 20, 1590, the Wuzhaibao Barracks were on the horse farm.

With the arrival of the soldiers, Huang Laifu also began to form the soldiers. Wuzhai Fort was a guard army, so of course it was not easy to transgress, so he still held the small flag, the general flag, and the formation of hundreds of households.

Although Huang Laifu sent away all the old officers in the Wuzhai Fort Flag Army, according to the agreement that day, the young servants in their family still replaced their positions. Fortunately, these servants and officers were all young people in their teens and twenties, and they did not have the bad habits of their fathers. Huang Laifu could be trained slowly to ensure the vitality of the new army in Wuzhai Fort.

These servants and officers were also needed by Huang Laifu. After all, these people are considered military generals and are much better than some ordinary households who have never practiced martial arts. Whether it is physical or understanding of the army, Huang Laifu also had no place to find those excellent officers.

Although Huang Laifu has memories of his past and his father Huang Sihao has passed on some knowledge of military generals, overall, he is still a rookie about military training. Although he has been studying Grandpa Qi's military training documentary every day these days, and he also carries this military book with him and takes it out to read it when he has time, it is not very outstanding compared to other servants. Fortunately, Qi Jiguang's military training documentary is really detailed in the military training matters. Let everyone explore and make progress together.

According to the agreement that day, He Chaoxun, deputy Qianhu, who was in charge of Wuzhaibao's military farming, camp and other matters, retired and replaced it with his son He Ruzhen, who was just 20 years old this year, who assisted Huang Laifu in training troops.

Two custodians who specialize in military discipline, Han Ming retired and replaced them with their sons Sun Xiaobao and Han Hu. Among the hundreds of households, Jiang Baihu and Yang Baihu, Li An, Li Cheng, Han Bing, Su Rui, Li Chun, Ma Wencai, Xu Shou, Wang Tang and other resident retired and replaced them with their sons or young people in the family.

These officers are of course the backbone of the Wuzhaibao army. In addition to the 20 servants of Huang Laifu, they each took over the two hundred households that his father retired. This is the case with the ten hundred households. As for the general flag and the small flag, Huang Laifu planned to wait until the army was formed according to the martial arts of the flag army and then slowly selected them from the flag army.

Starting from the morning of the 20th, according to Qi Jiguang's method, Huang Laifu ordered the officers, who only He Ruzhen and Yang Xiaolu, who knew a few words, to bring Wang Qinian and Zhou Wendong, and temporarily acted as deacons to register information for the various flag soldiers who arrived, and prepared many white cards to create military books.

When each flag army arrives, according to the name of the hanging waist-belt card issued to each person when the army is selected that day, the deacons fill in the white card or paper one by one. Each flag is a number one card, the year-end and hometown are a number two card, the scar and martial arts are a number three card, the team name is a number four card, and the team book is a number five card. Each card is a table, and the number one is tied up, and the rest is divided into open spaces, and the numbers are taken down, and the waist-belt card book is a number two card, according to various styles, and the style is opened at the back.

After filling in the white card, the soldiers lined up to collect military uniforms, and each of them gave them a set of military fat jackets, war shoes, military trousers, and soldiers' fur hats. This was bought by Huang Laifu these days, and his fountains were urgently bought from Xiwei, Kelanzhou Town, Xiwei, his adoptive father and commander Liu Jingchun. He temporarily bought 1,120 sets of soldiers' winter clothes.

The military uniforms had to be paid for by themselves, and Huang Laifu had no choice. He hoped that the heads of the Ministry of War would not have to distribute military uniforms once every year and make them by themselves. The military households of Wuzhai Fort had never made military uniforms, so they didn't know how to start. Besides, the time was tighter. Fortunately, the adoptive father had some inventory, otherwise Huang Laifu would not know what clothes to train these soldiers.

With a nervous and excited expression, Zhang Dasan watched the soldiers in front of him receive military uniforms one by one from the servants. It was his turn. He hurried up and handed his waist card over. The servant looked at Zhang Dasan and shouted loudly: "Sergeant Zhang Dasan, take a pair of military uniforms... take it."

As he said that, he took a large piece of oil paper from a servant and put it into Zhang Dasan's hand. On a table next to him, a literate servant wrote down Zhang Dasan's name in an account book, remembering that he had received a set of military uniforms.

Zhang Dasan excitedly held the big oil bag in his hand and walked to the side. Although he felt itchy, although the soldiers around him were whispering and everyone was excited, no one dared to open the oil bag in his hand, and he didn't dare to move.

After every 20 people received military uniforms, a servant took these people to a bathhouse next to the barracks and asked them to take a shower and change clothes. There was also a face cleaner outside the bathhouse to repair hair and tidy up the appearance of these soldiers.

“It feels so comfortable!”

In the large bath room, there was steaming hot steam in several large buckets, and there was a large stack of wooden basins next to them. 20 people were all stripped off. Each took a wooden basin and spooned a wooden basin with a spoon. Everyone washed it, and many people made a pleasant scream.

Zhang Dasan also washed comfortably and washed his body with greasy body. Northern Shanxi was close to the outer border. Although Wuzhai Fort was a place of water rich compared to northern Shanxi, overall, water was still very precious. It is normal for many people not to take a bath once every six months. And if it is a nomadic people outside the border, it is even rare to take a bath twice in their lifetime.

After taking a shower, he opened his own oil paper and looked at the brand new military fat jacket, war shoes, military trousers, soldiers' fur hats, etc. inside. Zhang Dasan couldn't help but caressed him excitedly. What a good thing. After putting on his military uniform, everyone looked at each other and smiled foolishly.

However, the soldiers wearing new military uniforms at this time were more energetic than before. However, if you want to talk about the heroic appearance of soldiers, there is still no one now. In addition to the original flag army of Wuzhai Fort, although they wear military uniforms, they still look like a pure farmer. I just hope that after training in the future, they will have the temperament of a soldier.

Since the army will not start until tomorrow, the various flag soldiers who returned to Wuzhai Fort today were still sleeping in various barracks. They had to wait until tomorrow before they could determine which small flag they belong to, which hundred households they belong to, and which room they belong to.

After dark, Zhang Dasan was arranged to sleep in a barracks, but he didn't fall asleep until very late. He thought to himself, what will tomorrow be like, and what will life in the future be like for himself? (To be continued.
