Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1496 Training
In the morning, when the sun shone on the frozen surface of Lake Baikal at 9 o'clock, the formation training had already started for half an hour. The second batch of team members who had just got off the plane also joined the training.

What surprised Phaethon was that Shangluo did not do anything else but instead participated in the most boring queue training.

"Don't move. Stand still here. Five minutes left."

Wen Yuan walked along with her hands behind her back, passing each person one by one.

When he came to Shangluo, he was stunned for a moment. He walked around Shangluo and said:
At this time, Shangluo looked straight ahead, with his shoulders at the same level, his chest held high and his abdomen contracted, and he breathed evenly. His arms naturally drooped, with the middle fingers of both hands pressed against the middle seam of his pants, his five fingers together and straight, his legs naturally straightened, his heels together, his toes separated by 60 degrees, and his toes in a line -

"Where did you learn this military posture?"

"I learned it during military training."

"Where did you receive military training? How come your military posture is standard? I haven't taught you yet."

[Tsk. You can answer the questions quickly.]

"Come, come, come." Wen Yuan directly pulled Shang Luo out of the crowd, "Everyone! You probably know this person, it's Shang Luo. Just look at how he stands at attention, he stands more steadily than me."

"So what are you doing here?" Shang Luo didn't want to speak when he was standing at attention, but after Wen Yuan said that, he couldn't help but ask, "Formation training is your job, right?"

"I have other lines to watch. With you here, I can go stand in another line."

"Can I ask where you stand first?"

"I can't take sides with either side. This mission was arranged by the great Elder Wen, who asked our principal to help. Otherwise, how can we get things done easily? I was directly assigned to be the person in charge of military training for the entire exercise, and the results will directly affect my evaluation. In other words, it doesn't matter to me whether you win or not, but you must fight well and show your level. It can't be one-sided. If you don't fight well, I will lose."

"Okay. Then you go ahead and do your work. I'll help you. But I'm just a trainee now. In what capacity can I lead the team?"

Wen Yuan said nothing, stretched out her hand and tore off the red and green watermelon man reflective strip on Shang Luo's chest, tore off the golden reflective strip on her own chest, and stuck it on Shang Luo's chest: "You are the commander-in-chief now, you take charge. I think you are enough here, I have to go to supervise the other side. What do you think, Mr. Phaethon?"

"Yes, it's okay." Phaethon nodded, "I think it's good."

"Wait a minute." Although it was not a good idea to break the rules at this time, Shang Luo could only pull Wen Yuan aside and said, "I can't stay here the whole time. If you let me take charge, what will happen after I leave?"

"Please do me a favor, Shangluo, please. This is very important to me, it's worth academic credit! It's especially hard for me to get this credit because there's no objective standard. It all depends on what my husband thinks. You know how strict he is. If I don't do well, he won't give me the stamp!"

Shangluo shook his head: "Okay, I'll help you. We are friends after all."

When Wen Yuan arrived, Shangluo tore off the reflective strip that he had just randomly pasted on and re-pasted it.

[You are a nice person. ]

"It's just a favor for a friend. It doesn't count as a 'nice person'. It's just human nature."

Although he was very busy, since Wen Yuan, who never asked him for help, had asked, he had no choice but to help.

"Well, everyone." Shang Luo walked in front of everyone, "Some of you should know me, some of you should not know me. I am not modest, I am the junior brother of the emperor."

"Isn't he the emperor's illegitimate son?" A voice suddenly came out from the crowd.

“???” Everyone was stunned for a moment, but couldn’t figure out who had spoken.

"Who told you that I'm a bastard? The emperor is 29 this year! He's only 12 years older than us, how can I be a bastard?"

[In fact, from a physiological point of view, this is not impossible. ]

"Can I ask, how on earth do I look like the emperor's illegitimate child? Is it because the emperor is too good to me?"

"Uh," said Ge Lun, the freshman representative of the Watermelon People, whom Shangluo had met before. "It's not that the emperor is too good to you. I sometimes wonder why you don't rebel when you are so powerful. After all, people like you are the protagonists in novels. Why don't you become an emperor yourself?"

The emperor is far away, and everyone is getting bolder. Those who were reluctant to speak in Yingtian before are now speaking freely.

"Why do you always think I'm going to rebel? This is unnecessary. What's the need for this? Am I dissatisfied with anything here?"

"Because some people say that you have countless incarnations, the Precious Lotus Lantern, the Fantian Seal, and the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts."

"That's Yang Erlang. Did you see it wrong? I see. You don't know me very well, right? It doesn't matter. We will get to know each other better in the future. When we get to know each other better, you will find that although I am a very powerful person, I have no opinion on the Ming Dynasty. If I have any opinion, it's that salty soda doesn't taste like lemon, that's all."

"."

[Everyone still doesn't quite believe it. They really don't know you very well.]

"Ah, I see." Shangluo patted his forehead, "You guys think I'm an alien, right?"

This actually caused quite a stir among the crowd - because if you think about it carefully, the entities that are closest to the positioning are indeed aliens.

"Well, let me put it this way. I eat sweet tofu pudding, but I can eat salty ones, too."

"Hmm???" There was a commotion among the crowd, and they were obviously dissatisfied with his stacking of armor: either sweet or salty. You can choose not to express your opinion, but you can't express only half of it.

"I eat salty rice dumplings, but white rice dumplings dipped in sugar are also acceptable, as are sweet rice dumplings with red dates. I like Suzhou-style Chinese sausages, but Cantonese and Sichuan styles are also delicious."

"??????"

"Also, I like to eat braised oven roast duck, but hanging oven roast duck is also okay."

"Actually, I also like eating hanging oven roast duck." A voice of agreement suddenly sounded in the crowd.

"Heretics!!!! It's heresy! Beat him to death! How can anyone want to eat sugar and fat!!!"

From a distance, Wen Yuan heard a strange sound on the other end.

"It's so lively over there." Gao Shiyu took a look.

"Don't look!" Wen Yuan, who happened to be walking in front of him, glared at him. "If you can't even stand in line properly, how can you win when you are lined up for execution?" "Oh, but what are they talking about over there?"

"Keep it a secret. I won't tell anyone about what's going on here, and the same goes for that. But, you don't actually need to train for that long."

Wen Yuan glanced at his watch and saw that the queue training for the Northern Imperial College had lasted for an hour.

"Okay, that's about it. We don't need to practice the formation for so long here. We can get into the actual combat training as soon as possible. I guess you all don't really need actual combat training, right?"

"Hehehe, so you knew."

"Of course I know that 90% of the students in the Northern Imperial Academy are from craftsman families. Your discipline is beyond doubt."

Unlike the south, for the Southern Imperial Academy, the current drill is probably the first time for many of them in their lives. But in the northern Zhili area, there is military training when students enter primary and secondary schools, and the same is true for universities.

This is mainly the case in public elementary and middle schools. Military training and national defense education are under the jurisdiction of the six ministries of Shuntian, and have long been included in the curriculum of basic education. As long as you study in a public school, you must undergo training.

Wen Yuan also turned around several times just now and came to the conclusion that everyone here actually does not need real queue training. Just a short hour of training to restore their muscle memory will be enough.

"Then I'll give the rest of the time to you. I don't really understand the divisions here. Are there any irreconcilable conflicts between your five colleges?"

"Uh" This made everyone hesitate.

"Mr. Gao Shiyu, how about you tell me?"

"Me? That's right. We are quite familiar with each other. If I must say, I don't think there is any contradiction. But it is important to distinguish between us."

"That's right." Everyone nodded.

This is different from the Southern Imperial Academy. The conflicts among the various departments of the Southern Imperial Academy are that they are not familiar with each other at all, they are all different in composition, and most of them will go their separate ways after graduation.

90% of the students in the Northern Imperial Academy are of the same composition and have similar family backgrounds:

Most of them live in a huge industrial city, and their families have complete facilities such as water and electricity since they were young. Both parents have their own jobs.

They had rarely left their residential area since they were young. Their classmates were almost always the same, and the school was no more than 2 kilometers away from home. They could walk a few steps to everything from barber shops to movie theaters. They had hardly ever bought anything, because the rations they filled out on the forms were enough for daily necessities, and most of the money they earned was used to buy non-staple food.

Most of them also have an identical car at home, which is a high-volume family car: rear-mounted engine, rear-wheel drive, and a huge trunk at the front. It is not very fast, but it can go on the highway. It is very easy to maintain and very fuel-efficient.

Whether it is railways, electricity, petrochemicals, coal and steel, all industries are similar. They have received public education and national education since childhood, and their experiences are very similar. And unlike the Southern Imperial College, the Northern Imperial College has a very good reputation - mainly because the certification provided by the Northern Imperial College is very convenient for them to return home in glory. Those from the railway system will eventually return, and the same is true for other things.

This does not mean that they will have to do the same job as their parents. In fact, whether it is the railway industry or the power industry, there are 360 ​​industries in it, and it is a province distributed according to industrial clusters. No matter what you want to do, whether it is scientific research, art, sports, etc., any personal achievement can be achieved within the industrial cluster.

In this situation, students with similar experiences but different backgrounds have higher and lower demands.

"Then let me ask you first, would you like to be mixed together, or have your own companies?"

"Meeting?"

"How about a meeting?"

"Have a meeting."

Wen Yuan nodded, and they began to make self-organized decisions.

The decision-making process is very sophisticated. They did not hold a meeting together, but each department made a decision individually and then brought their own opinions to the table for consultation.

35 minutes later, the results came out.

Gao Shiyu was still the one to tell us:

"We referred to historical cases and adopted a plan between mixed formations and independent formations. We divided into different companies. A reconnaissance company, an engineering company, an infantry company, an artillery company, and a skirmisher company, a total of five. Then we selected an additional 200 people to form an elite team."

This is a very professional organization - just a little too flat. There is only one infantry, and the battlefield width is a little low. But if you count the Elite Corps and the Engineer Corps, there are roughly three companies to maintain the width, which is not a big problem.

"That's great. Then why don't you hold a meeting to decide who will take unified command?"

The meeting started again immediately. Just like before, everyone had a small meeting first, and then gathered together when they had some ideas.

The progress here was much faster than the other side - because Shangluo had already terminated the queue training in advance and spent time discussing what to eat on the menu tonight. The topic of stacking armor that he brought up earlier had already caused an irreconcilable conflict, because tofu pudding was really going to be eaten tonight. Now no one treated him as an alien anymore, but as a sweet lover.

However, his function was also clarified in the process: he was responsible for communicating with the school and deciding how to prepare dinner tonight.

"Everyone, I still have something to say." Shangluo put away the menu first, "The drill will start tomorrow, right? Then how should we fight? My suggestion is to mix multiple types of troops."

"Mix what?" Ge Lun asked in surprise, "Each of our colleges can just form a team."

"That's right."

"Wait, don't you have a division of labor?"

"How do we divide this? No one knows anything."

Shangluo slapped his head, he had forgotten about this matter. Before today, most people here knew nothing about military training. Only the people in Guayuan were from military families like Jinyiwei and Xiaolingwei, so they knew a little bit. But the others had only just experienced queue training once.

Since everyone knows nothing in the first place and cannot be trained in such a short time, there is no way to divide the work too detailed.

"So, how do we arrange the formation? Who is in front and who is in the back?" Shangluo asked in surprise.

"Hmm," Ge Lun looked at the others, "It's not good to have anyone in front or behind. We can only line up in a row. I think a long snake formation is good. If you hit the head, the tail will respond. If you hit the tail, the head will respond. If you hit the middle, both the head and the tail will respond. This is also recorded in Sun Tzu's Art of War."
