Chapter 97 Troop Training

After Sun Wukong said a few words here, he let everyone disperse and return to their assigned tents to rest and start formal training tomorrow morning.

Sun Wukong summoned Liu Hai and some experienced constables to the big tent for a meeting.

"We have a total of fifty squads now, and there is a serious shortage of management staff. Now everyone is responsible for two squads. We will start dividing the squads at the crowing of the cock tomorrow morning. Squads one to forty-five will be divided into five companies. The company commander will be replaced by my guards temporarily. You can recommend platoon leaders and squad leaders, or nominate yourself. Let me be frank, any squad that does not complete the task according to the regulations must be punished, and the squad leader will be punished as well. Any other questions?"

Sun Wukong looked at the detectives sitting at the conference table.

"Sir, we don't know how to manage it at all!"

"Yup!"

"Don't worry, I will also provide you with systematic training. Well, let's end today's meeting here. Go to bed early. I don't want any of you to be late tomorrow morning."

Sun Wukong dismissed the meeting and went to his own tent. He lived with Liu Hai and the others. Sun Wukong and Liu Hai's rest was to meditate and practice martial arts. Originally, Xiaohuan wanted to come with them. She said that Sun Wukong needed someone to take care of him, but Sun Wukong felt that it was inconvenient for a girl like Xiaohuan to live in the military camp.

So Sun Wukong asked Xiaohuan to stay with Laobai in the yamen. If anyone reported a case to the authorities, Laobai would handle it.

At four o'clock the next morning, Sun Wukong and Liu Hai went to the open space, and soon the detectives arrived one after another.

Sun Wukong asked them to stand in two rows.

"Come and tell me your number!"

"Hug a tree? Why do you want to hug a tree?"

"Sir, there are no trees here?"

When Sun Wukong heard the answers from the detectives, he couldn't help but forget that they had never received any training at all.

"Start with you, and count in turn. You count one and he counts two. Do you understand?" Sun Wukong explained to them what counting is.

"Understood"

After hearing their answers, Sun Wukong nodded, "Okay, start counting!"

"One, two, three, four... twenty-five"

"Now go to the tent and wake up all those people."

Liu Hai and his companions, as well as the constables, ran into the tents one by one and woke up all those who were still sleeping.

Around five o'clock, five hundred people were standing in a mess in the open space.

"Look at what you look like now, are you a soldier? I don't want this to happen tomorrow morning."

Sun Wukong took out a list filled with names. This was the roster of people who signed up this time. "Do you see? The 25 people in front are your squad leaders. From left to right, they are squad leaders one to twenty-fifth. The name that's being read now is from squad one..., and the people from squad two are... Your squad leader is squad leader one..."

It took Sun Wukong nearly an hour to divide the classes. These people had not been trained yet and everything was in disarray.

They were divided into five companies on the playground. Except for Liu Hai, Sun Wukong's other five guards were in front of the company they managed.

Now they are standing in a square and look somewhat presentable.

"We have just started today and everyone is not used to it yet. Let's run a few laps to warm up our bodies. The company commander will lead the running. Start now. Run in an orderly manner and don't run around randomly."

Then the squad leader and the company commander led them to run, and Sun Wukong came to the kitchen. It was still the training period for new recruits, and the cooking team had not come out yet. Sun Wukong could only find people from the county town to help with cooking.

Looking at the common breakfasts of Yangping in the kitchen, Sun Wukong sighed. It seems that more effort will be needed to truly train an army.

At about seven o'clock, Sun Wukong asked them to stop running. The farmers were fine, but the five people in the logistics team were all scholars. After running for an hour, they were already complaining.

Sun Wukong asked them to take their own bowls to the temporary porridge shed for breakfast. After the meal, Sun Wukong did not intend to do anything with these new recruits, but just gave them an order to reclaim the land in the back mountain.

Those who were born as farmers were very confused as to why they still had to farm here.

In fact, Sun Wukong just didn't have time to train them. Now their squad leaders and platoon leaders didn't know anything, so he had to train them first. Also, farming during the training could help alleviate the military supplies in their barracks.

Fifty squads with sickles and hoes went to the land behind, while Sun Wukong took the company commander and squad leaders to the playground.

"I'm going to teach you something next, and I hope you can learn it as quickly as possible. The first thing is to stand at attention."

Sun Wukong faced the company commander, squad leader and others, with his hands pressed against his trousers, his feet spread out, his chest out, and his body slightly leaning forward.

"This is standing at attention. When standing at attention, you must hold your head high and chest out, look at the back of the head of the person in front of you, put your hands between your pants, and spread your legs like me. You can try it."

Liu Hai took the lead in demonstrating, and he looked pretty good. The company commander and squad leader also smiled and stood at attention like Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong asked them to stand for a while and found that the effect was very good. Then he asked them to stand at attention, at ease, look to the left, and look to the right.

………………

"The next step is to turn your body. Use your right and left heels as the axis and use your right and left heels and the soles of your left and right feet to exert force at the same time, so that your body can turn 90 degrees to the left and right in a coordinated manner. The center of gravity of your body will fall on your right and left feet. Take a shortcut and bring your left and right feet together to stand in an upright position. When turning and leaning on your feet, keep your legs straight and your upper body in an upright position."

Sun Wukong demonstrated directly there how to turn left, right and backward. These were relatively simple and it didn't take them much time to learn them, but they were still not very proficient.

By noon, they had been practicing basic movements for the whole morning. Sun Wukong asked them to call back all the people who were working on the land. After lunch, they had to take a nap. At about two o'clock, Sun Wukong got them up and went to the back to open up the land.

He led the squad leader and company commander to continue training. In the morning, they practiced standing at attention, turning, standing at ease, etc. In the afternoon, they practiced marching in place and marching in step.

"I said when you're marching in place, step out with your left foot, swing out your right hand, then take your left foot back, step out with your right foot, and swing out your left hand."

Sun Wukong gave them a demonstration and then started shouting commands: one, two, one, one, two, one.

"Do you understand? One is the left foot, and the other is the right foot!"

Sun Wukong looked at them and said, "Listen to my command and march on the spot!" Sun Wukong took them to practice marching on the spot. At the beginning, they could not keep up with the rhythm at all. They were either too fast or too slow. Some of them could not distinguish the command, and some even turned clockwise.
