Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At the foot of Purple Mountain, a huge new city was built, surrounded by high brick walls and lined with watchtowers on all sides.  The place is heavily guarded. Except for the occasional soldiers coming and going, and the large and small cars coming and going from time to time, few people can understand what is going on inside.  The people nearby only knew it as a military camp and used to call it Xinying.

    This place can indeed be called a new camp, because it not only produces a large number of weapons and equipment that are rare in the world, but also continuously trains the latest soldiers for the future Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

    The teaching brigade specially organized by Lin Haifeng has officially arrived.

    He has put a lot of effort into this unit.  According to his request, the Eastern King Yang Xiuqing deliberately ordered back a group of young generals with Boy Scout origins, including Chen Yucheng, Li Xiucheng, Li Shixian, and Tan Shaoguang, as well as a group of key soldiers.  There were soldiers from the Northern Expedition and the Western Expedition, as well as defenders from Tianjing, Zhenjiang and Yangzhou.  Here, they will accept the use of new weapons and new tactics.  Of course, it is also necessary to update the latest ideas and concepts.  Everything will be a new beginning for them.

    "Brothers, you are the elite soldiers of our heavenly army and the hope of heaven. You will become heroes who will make all enemies fearful!" This was Lin Haifeng's opening remarks at the first meeting of the teaching brigade.

    Looking at the six square formations composed of 2,400 soldiers sitting around the general platform, Lin Haifeng felt satisfied.  He personally reviewed the resumes of these two thousand four hundred people one by one.  They all come from poor backgrounds, all have impressive records, and they are all young.

    A soldier who doesn¡¯t want to be a marshal is not a good soldier. Under the influence of his father since he was a child, Lin Haifeng has dreamed of commanding thousands of troops one day. It is a lifelong pride of a soldier.  But he never thought that he would lead such a group of people in this era.

    "I know that before our brothers joined the Heavenly Army, they were all poor people. You are the carbon workers who burn the kilns, you are the tenants of the landlord's family, and you are the boys in the shop. I think you all must understand that if we all have land,  If we have enough food and clothing, we will not take the risk of destroying our family and join the Heavenly Army with our heads high. So, what is the ultimate goal of our joining the Heavenly Army?" Lin Haifeng looked around and focused on the front row.  On Chen Yucheng's face, "Chen Yucheng, I would like to ask you to answer my question."

    Chen Yucheng is a young man who is not yet seventeen years old, but his whole body exudes a heroic aura. It was the war that made him mature prematurely.  His eyes are not big, but the lines on his eyelids are so deep that many people jokingly call him four eyes.  Despite his young age, he is quite famous among the heavenly army.  In the Battle of Wuchang at the beginning of the year, he was the first to rush to the top of Wuchang City with a steel sword in his mouth. For this, he received a commendation from the King of Heaven.  He, Li Xiucheng, Li Shixian, Tan Shaoguang, Chen Kunshu, and Fan Ruseng were called the Six Tigers of the Boy Scouts.

    Hearing King An¡¯s question, he stood up shyly and said, ¡°Reporting to Your Highness, our goal is to overthrow the Manchu Emperor and create a new kingdom of heaven.¡±

    "Haha," Lin Haifeng smiled, "Then can you tell me what this new heaven is like?"

    "Your Highness, the world is at peace, there will be no more wars, everyone has food to eat, and everyone has clothes to wear." Chen Yucheng straightened his back and answered loudly.

    Lin Haifeng motioned for him to sit down, and then pointed to an ordinary soldier behind him, "Tell me what you think."

    "At first, I knew that if I followed the King of Heaven, I would be able to have enough to eat. Later, as time went by, I also understood the truths that Mr. Checkpoint just said. But if you ask me to tell you specifically, Your Highness, I can't say." The soldier lowered his head in embarrassment.  head.

    "Okay, that's very good." Lin Haifeng waved his hand, "They are all good, but not comprehensive enough. Our ultimate goal is to completely overthrow the feudal dynasty and establish a peaceful world where the people are the masters of their own affairs. The 'people' are  What? It¡¯s you, me, our family, and all the people in the world who you don¡¯t know who are oppressed by the government and bullies.¡±

    He paused for a moment, put his hands on his hips, and said loudly: "The state has national laws, and the military has military regulations, but I don't want to talk about these yet. Today I just want to teach you two words and a song."

    "What are the two words? It's 'revolution'. What is 'revolution'?" He looked at the soldiers who were waiting for his words attentively, stretched out his palm and swiped hard on his neck, "It means to eliminate all those who dare to violate  Our will is to stop all the forces that prevent us from building a better world. Get rid of the Manchu emperor, and get rid of those corrupt officials, local tyrants and evil gentry who are riding on the heads of the people and tyrannizing!"

    "What is a song? This is the 'Three Major Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention'. We are new soldiers, and we must always remember that we are still the people's soldiers and a 'revolutionary' team. We must not only learn to sing, but also  ???It is sung throughout the military camp and throughout the entire army. More importantly, it must be engraved in our bones and implemented in every action we take!  Lin Haifeng walked around the general stage and looked at everyone seriously, "In one month, a formal flag-presenting ceremony and corresponding appointments will be held for the formation of the teaching brigade. Study and training will be conducted temporarily according to the current establishment.  In the meantime, any unqualified personnel will be eliminated from the ranks of the New Army.  We don't need any scum!  "

    Every revolutionary soldier must keep in mind the three major disciplines and eight items of discipline.

    First, follow the command in all actions, and only by working in unison can you win.

    Second, I don¡¯t take anything away from the masses. The masses support and like me.

    Third, all seizures must be returned to the public, and efforts should be made to reduce the burden on the people.

    We must adhere to the three major disciplines and never forget the eight points of attention.

    The first thing to do is to speak in a harmonious manner, respect the people and don¡¯t be arrogant.

    Second, the buying and selling price must be fair, and public buying and selling must not be overbearing.

    Third, if the borrowed items have been used, return them in person and do not lose them.

    Fourth, if something is damaged, compensation will not be less than half the price.

    Fifth, hitting and swearing are not allowed, and the warlord style must be resolutely overcome.

    Sixth, take good care of the people¡¯s crops and pay attention to them everywhere during marches and operations.

    Seventh, you are not allowed to molest women. The hooligan habits must be eradicated.

    Eighth, you are not allowed to mistreat the captured soldiers, you are not allowed to beat or scold them, and you are not allowed to search your pockets.

    Everyone must be conscious of observing disciplines and supervise each other to ensure that they do not violate the rules.

    ??We must remember clearly the revolutionary disciplines and rules, and the people¡¯s soldiers love the people everywhere.

    We will always move forward to defend the motherland, and the people across the country support and welcome it.

    He taught and sang word for word, pointing his fingers to explain in detail.  He tried hard to imitate the appearance of the great leader in his mind, and even felt that it would be great if he also had a strong Hunan accent.

    Accompanying him were voices with southern and northern accents, varying in thickness, ranging from chaotic to coherent.  When more than two thousand people raised their throats and finally sang this song, the ground beneath their feet was shaking, and the solid towers in the distance seemed to be swaying
