Wei Rugui has been in the army for many years and is also a master of a family. However, he has been living a pampered life for many years and is no longer the same as before. Under the coercion of Li Shuwen, he has no power to fight back and can only shout loudly: "Liu Shaoqing, what are you going to do! I am a second-rank official of the court, President Sheng Jun appointed by Li Zhongtang and the emperor. If you dare to touch me, try it!"

The other Shengjun officers behind him also wanted to come forward to express their feelings, but were stopped by the military police surrounded by Hula with rifles and bayonets.

Liu Shaoqing looked at Wei Rugui who was pressed to the ground and said, "Mr. Wei, it seems that you didn't listen to me seriously just now. I have said that, here, I have the final say! Now, I announce that Wei Rugui passively disobeyed, and the slack military aircraft was removed from all positions and removed from his top clothes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, soldiers immediately came up to take off Wei Rugui's top and tore off the patch on his chest in three or two.

"At the same time, I have received a report that Wei Rugui has embezzled military supplies and deducted military pay. This report needs to be verified. Therefore, before finding out other evidence of Wei Rugui's crimes, the officer will be detained in the camp until the facts are found out!"

These days, how many Qing army generals did not deduct military pay or had empty salary? Look at this playground, Shengjun, Mingjun, Wuyijun, and Renzi Army had a total of at least 12,000 battalions, but there were only more than 8,000 people actually registered, and 2.5% of the names were eaten by them. This was because they had to be reorganized. In terms of local areas, the camps reported by Wei Rugui last year were twenty-four battalions!

When Wei Rugui heard Liu Shaoqing's accusations against him, he finally realized that he had been fooled by this little man. He had long thought about killing him, but it was ridiculous that he was still glad that he had taken him away.

"Liu Shaoqing! You dare to slander my elders, I will fight you!"

The person who spoke was Wei Zhisu, the captain of Wei Rugui, who was the distant nephew of Wei Rugui, who has been with Wei Rugui for seven or eight years. These people are usually raised by Wei Rugui to deal with similar situations. He thought that his elders were Li Zhongtang's direct descendants, and as long as he robbed them back, he would be at the least he could join Li Zhongtang. How could Li Zhongtang not be able to face his fellow villagers?

With his shout, more than a dozen other personal soldiers rushed out with him, and dozens of others hesitated for a moment. It was this hesitation that saved their lives.

With a gunshot of "Bang!", a bloody flower appeared on Wei Zhisu's forehead, and then he fell downstairs with a plop. Liu Feng, who was in charge of the alert, blew the revolver in his hand and murmured, "Susty!"

The other personal soldiers who rushed out were stabbed to death by other soldiers on the periphery. The soldiers of the Guards received special training in stinging, and the ones they taught were Li Shuwen, known as the magic gun. Even these personal soldiers could not stop them with weapons, let alone bare hands.

Taking down a general in public, plus a dozen bloody corpses. This shock was obviously much better than dragging away hundreds of big-headed soldiers before. Now the playground is silent, and everyone finally realized that Liu Shaoqing had the final say here.

"Okay, now, please ask you soldiers over forty-five and under eighteen to register with you, and the rest will be on standby, and your squad leader will take you to the dormitory."

Following Liu Shaoqing's words, soldiers immediately shouted below: "Soldiers over forty-five and under 18 years old, please come to me!" The non-commissioned officers near the Qing army also cooperated and shouted: "Who are those over forty-five and under 18 years old, please go ahead..."

Soon, three or four hundred soldiers were divided, and an officer took them to the playground in front and registered separately. After screening, these people would leave some skilled people to supplement the artillery battalion or engineering battalion. The remaining older people would be given a sum of silver to send them home, while the younger ones would be sent to school to learn knowledge, and then return to the team after they were eighteen years old.

There were about 8,000 people left on the playground, and then there were two soldiers from the Guards in groups and began to dispatch their own soldiers.

This time, Liu Shaoqing led a total of two infantry regiments, one of which was responsible for the alert and the other was responsible for the training. For the training of other recruits, one recruit squad was assigned to a veteran, but because these Qing troops were originally in the army, they might develop some bad habits. For safety reasons, Liu Shaoqing assigned two veterans to a recruit squad this time. There were ten new recruits in one squad. Although the proportion was still very different, because these ten people were randomly allocated, the unity was much worse, and there should be no big problem. In addition, there were company platoon cadres and military police patrols of an infantry squad in each company, and the phenomenon of bombing the battalion should not happen.

As the squads were taken away one after another, the playground quickly became empty. Liu Shaoqing turned around and said to the remaining thirty officers: "Sorry, I don't want to do this, but you are also the ones who lead the troops. You should know the reason why the army cannot do nothing. In addition, there is another thing that needs to be told to everyone."

Liu Shaoqing paused to keep everyone focused.

"Considering that the management method of the new army will be very different from the traditional army in the future, you need to live and study with the soldiers in the future, and of course there is moderate physical training. If an adult thinks it is unacceptable, you can choose to quit now."

After saying that, Liu Shaoqing looked at the generals with sincere eyes.

After waiting for five minutes, a guerrilla warrior from Sheng Jun walked out tremblingly: "Sir, I think it's better to leave. I don't know, can you?"

Liu Shaoqing smiled, "Of course, not only can, we will also pay you back the travel fee."

With a leader, there was a successor immediately. Soon, half of the generals decided to withdraw, including Sheng Jun, Ming Jun and Ren Jun, but several generals of Wuyi Jun were completely unmoved.

Liu Shaoqing nodded secretly: "It seems that Nie Shicheng's reputation of leading troops is not nonsense, but this is a rare talent."

Until no one stood up, Liu Shaoqing said: "Okay, since everyone has made a choice, I can only wish you all good luck. In addition, the emperor also assigned me another job, which is to punish corruption in the army. Therefore, whether you are going to stay or are preparing to leave, you must undergo an anti-corruption investigation. During this period, we will have dedicated people to take care of everyone's diet and help everyone get rid of smoking addiction."

This is a mandatory measure and there is no need to solicit opinions, so after Liu Shaoqing finished speaking, he signaled that the gendarmes could take these "generals" back to their room.

The soldiers' barracks were rows of neat brick and tile houses, each room was placed with six upper and lower bunks. On each bunk, brand new military quilts were neatly stacked on the mattress, and there was an iron basin under the bed, which was used to wash the soldiers. The toothpaste, toothbrush and towels were all prepared in the iron jar.

There is also a row of wardrobes in the room, which are used to put clothes and packages for the soldiers. However, the Qing army cannot change clothes yet, so there is nothing to put on.

All the soldiers were stunned when they first entered such a barracks. They had never lived in such a brick house, white walls, clean gray ground and brand new lanterns on their desks, which made them feel a little unbelievable that this would be a place for them to live in. Some people were already thinking that it seemed that it was really good to be a guard soldier.

The most basic unit in the Qing army's establishment was the "shang". As the name suggests, it means that people living in a greenhouse are "shang". From this point of view, we can imagine the living environment of the Qing soldiers in the past.

While everyone was still sighing, the squad leader and the deputy squad leader shouted behind him: "Everyone chooses his own bed and puts the stool in your hands under the bed. In addition, under the bed, you have prepared basins and towels for everyone. After you have your own basins and toiletries, come out and gather immediately!"

The soldiers rushed forward immediately, fearing that they would have no place to give them when they were too late. Some soldiers originally wanted to lie on the bed and feel it, but after looking at the clean bedding and sheets, and then looking at their sloppy body, they finally couldn't bear it.

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's already 7:30 pm now, we still have a lot of things to do, you all need to do!" The squad leader finally brought the soldiers back to the playground with urging.

On the playground, some came early and some came late. For some reason, the squad leader who came late saw that someone could not run away on the playground, and seemed to have his temper immediately became worse. He was urging him, but now he has added fists and kicks.

"You lazy people, please be more careful, put the basin in your hand on the ground in front of you, and then run five laps around the playground! Yes! That's right, five laps! Look at it, don't you go running yet, do you want to be punished? The last soldier who came back, I want you to wash the socks for the whole class for a week!"

No Qing soldiers understood what it meant in a week, but everyone understood the matter of washing socks, so everyone immediately took action and started running around.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! We were already behind when we came out. Are you also behind when you want to go back? I tell you that after running back and take a shower, the ones who arrived first had a hot shower, and those who were late could only take cold water. Think about it, this kind of weather was poured on you with cold water! So, for the sake of hot water, run quickly!"

Perhaps it was because the squad leader was constantly urging, maybe the hot shower was really more attractive than the cold shower, and the soldiers' running speed increased significantly.
Chapter completed!
