Qin Ming said: "These soldiers are strong and strong in appearance, and they are obviously elite at first glance, but they probably spend a lot of money."

"This is natural. Mr. Qin followed me to the canteen to visit." Bian Xiang took Qin Ming and Huang Xin to visit the canteen, and he was surprised when he saw it.

Huang Xin behind Qin Ming said: "It can't be because we came here on purpose, it's so good. How could it be so rich?"

The canteen adopts a separate meal system, with each person having a tray, and you can choose several kinds of vegetables and a soup. For example, today's lunch includes fried meat with vegetables, stewed chicken, two kinds of meat dishes, two kinds of vegetables, and one seafood. There are also many kinds of porridge, which are all locally made in Shandong, such as sorghum porridge, millet porridge, and rice porridge. The main foods include steamed buns, rice, and pancakes. Of course, when Xiaobing chose meals, one meat, one vegetable, one porridge and one rice.

This kind of food is only affordable for ordinary people on Jingdong Road. Ordinary people don’t even think about it. Now the Song Dynasty looks from top to bottom and the lights are bright and wine, singing and dancing are coming to peace. But from bottom to top, it looks even more bleak, and encountering natural disasters is even more unbearable. The strong gather together to steal, and the weak change their children to eat. It is indeed shocking to have such food. Qin Ming said: "No wonder the soldiers are so strong, they eat so well."

Bian Xiang said: "It's time to eat, so eat together. From now on, everyone will have a meal in the same camp. It's better to communicate more."

During the meal, Qin Ming asked: "Are we on this island too?"

Bian Xiang said: "This place is too close to Dengzhou and Laizhou, not far from Qingzhou, so it is easy to be discovered. However, from then on, there is an island with abundant water and grass seventy or eighty miles north. It turns out to be a pirate's nest. The fleet was wiped out. Later, it was arranged for the two cavalry battalions to be stationed. Military pay and military supplies are supplied by the headquarters. Of course, everything must be followed by the training method of the Tongda Dacheshang headquarters. The life chief and education supervisor must be arranged in the battalion."

Qin Ming said: "Don't worry, since I have come, Huang Xin and I are sincere and I guarantee to accept the arrangement."

Bian Xiang said: "In two to three years, your battalion's cavalry will be expanded to at least two thousand people, and the equipment will be replaced one after another. After dinner, I will take you to see the current cavalry equipment."

On the training ground, the cavalry were arranged neatly. Bian Xiang had only 200 cavalry under his command, each carrying bows and arrows, cavalry knives hanging around his waist, and short dragon muskets in his hands. From small soldiers to officers, they all had leather armor. Since these people would be guards in the future, they were very strict in training.

Qin Ming said: "What's the name of that short weapon?"

Bian Xiang said: "This musket is called the Short Dragon musket. It has effective lethality of fifty meters and a distance of seventy or eighty meters."

Bian Xiang took a short dragon musket and hit the group on the human-shaped wooden board fifty meters away. The wooden board fell to the ground with a bang.

Huang Xin said: "I have seen it from Shi Qian, and he is reluctant to let me see it."

Bian Xiang said: "Don't mind Huang's deputy head of the wings. This musket is very powerful and is confidential, so it is generally not easy to see. It is okay to train and use it on the island, but it cannot be taken back to the Song Dynasty for use unless necessary."

Qin Ming and Huang Xin said that they were all old soldiers. Although this weapon has a range that is not as far as the bow and arrow, it has a large strike surface and is sprayed with iron sand. As long as it hits, it will disappear immediately. Especially when it is hit by a cavalry, it means being caught, and falling off means death.

Qin Ming said: "I think your cavalry is not capable of melee combat. Although the cavalry sword is sharp, it is short. When it comes to a cavalry with a spear and a mace, it has no power to fight."

"Qin PaoTou is right. Our cavalry mainly uses muskets and bows and arrows, and the tactics they implement are called cavalry and shooting wars. Of course, not all cavalry must be equipped with light cavalry swords. Your 500 cavalry can continue to use their original weapons as melee weapons, but you must be skilled in cavalry and shooting one after another."

Qin Ming expressed his understanding and said, "The five hundred cavalry brought from Qingzhou are all very powerful, many of them use more than ten kilograms of maces, which are very powerful."

Qin Ming and Huang Xin also had more than 500 cavalry soldiers to be trained and reorganized. The transformation from the Qingzhou Prefecture official army to the guards of Tongda Dachexing required an adaptation process.

Just when Bian Xiang was arranging Qin Ming and Huang Xin on Qinghe Island, Wu Song from Dongping Prefecture held a grand opening ceremony in the south of Dongping Prefecture. This school covering an area of ​​300 acres was built very luxuriously. It was divided into two schoolyards, one large schoolyard for practicing horse kung fu, and the other small schoolyard for practicing foot fighting, traditional routines, melee fighting, weapons, etc.

The four gold-burned characters in Dongping Martial Arts School were written by the Minister of Justice. Cheng Wanli also came to attend the opening ceremony on behalf of the Dongping Prefecture official. Originally, Wu Song invited Li Qingzhao from Quancheng Prefecture to attend. For some reason, he did not come. Cheng Wan was somewhat disappointed. Her idol was Li Qingzhao and Li Jia.

The task of cutting the ribbon fell on Cheng Wanli. It was not time for us to sit and watch the performance first. Wu Song and Cheng Wanli were chatting in the living room next to us.

Cheng Wanli took a sip of tea: "Erlang, I have always been at ease with you when you do things, but this time you recruited thousands of martial arts students, and a tuition fee of up to 200 taels per person a year. Isn't this a bit unintentional? Besides, I don't agree with making money through education."

Wu Song said: "Okay, I admit that I want to make money through the martial arts school, but my father-in-law rest assured. I set up a branch in Qinghe County. All the poor children who cannot afford the tuition will go there to study. After learning well, they will be arranged to work at Tongda Big Car Shop."

"Learning martial arts morality is the first priority. Dongping Prefecture Martial Arts School must be managed well, otherwise it will be troublesome if it has a bad reputation." Cheng Wanli said.

Wu Song said: "Don't worry, father-in-law, the chief coach of the Dongping Martial Arts School is Xu Ning, the coach of the Tokyo Golden Spear Class. I dug it out from the imperial guards at a high price. The director of the admissions office is Li Zhong, and the principal is me. So for my own reputation, I will also learn from my learning experience. As long as these rich children can endure hardships, they will definitely teach them some real skills."

Cheng Wanli deeply agreed that Wu Song cherishes his feathers very much, and he is also very happy that with these thousand students from Dongping Martial Arts School, the economy of Dongping Prefecture can be revitalized for a long time.
