Chapter 331 The Hot Morning Exercise
Under Xiao Ruxun's arrangement, the soldiers of the Ming army got up early and started the morning training. This was not to pretend to be aggressive, but to adapt to the local climate as soon as possible. They ran five laps one by one in the barracks, and after sweating profusely, they did assassination and shooting training with guns, as well as strength training such as push-ups, which made the soldiers sweat all over their shirtless arms.

In addition, there are soldiers who chop firewood and boil hot water for the soldiers in training to bathe. The two teams come in rotation, every day. Lacking mountains and rivers, there is a river with a large flow not far from their barracks. It is very convenient to fetch water. After taking a bath and changing into dry clothes, the army will have breakfast again.

So the Siamese and Europeans watched the Ming army doing such rigorous training. When King Narexuan came, he also saw the Ming army training in full swing. Water was dripping all over his body all the time, and when he stabbed with a gun, his momentum was overwhelming, every move was in place, and those who dared to be lazy were immediately pulled out and ran around.

The blunderbusses are very sensitive when they practice marksmanship, especially the three-stage strike method. The Ming blunderbusses are very proficient. Loading bullets, aiming at the fire and shooting a set of movements is smooth and smooth, and the hit rate is also very high. When you close your eyes and pull the trigger, there is a snap , The gun target shattered, followed by the second row, and then the third row.

There are also a large number of soldiers wielding swords and shields to practice each other. The moves are serious and serious. You slash and block, and you block me to slash. There are even individual troops who directly throw away their shields and fight each other. The posture is almost like killing. Like his comrades-in-arms, the general glanced sternly at the side, and when he saw someone who was not training seriously, he pulled out to whip a whip and then rolled back to continue training. He was very strict.

Beside them, a group of officers patrolled and chanted the slogan "Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime", which inspired the soldiers' enthusiasm for training, which was indeed very useful.

As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, Xiao Ruxun must take the lead to win the support of the soldiers. He also took off his shirt, rode a horse with a spear in his hand, and fought with his own general Wang Hui immediately. The onlookers applauded loudly, until Xiao Ruxun shot Wang Hui off the horse, and then Xiao Ruxun jumped off the horse, pulled Wang Hui up out of breath, and the two of them washed their bodies with hot water together with the soldiers.

When the early morning sun pierced through the clouds and cast sunlight onto the ground, the Ming army’s morning drills were over. They stripped off all their clothes except their underwear, and then ran into a large wooden barrel filled with hot water. Scoop hot water and pour it on your body, screaming strangely while rushing, what's more, while washing and washing, seeing the hot water getting colder, you will jump into the big wooden bucket, which immediately attracts a burst of shouting and more soldiers follow suit .

After taking a bath and changing into dry clothes, the soldiers went to have breakfast in groups. Before breakfast, everyone was required to drink a large bowl of salt water before they could go to breakfast. The busy morning was over.

While Xiao Ruxun and a group of soldiers and generals were laughing and having breakfast, someone came to announce that the King of Siam had arrived.

"Hahaha! Admiral!"

The King of Siam didn't wait for Xiao Ruxun to greet him in person, so he ran directly to the place where the Ming army had breakfast. Only then hastily greeted them, all the way to appease the soldiers to eat breakfast by themselves, regardless of what happened here.

"Your Majesty, did you come so early?"

"That's right, if you don't come so early, you won't be able to see the majestic scene of the Ming Dynasty's soldiers training. Does the Ming Dynasty's army practice like this every day?"

King Narexuan seems to be very concerned about the training methods of the Ming army, and the strong military discipline and organization of the Ming army.

Xiao Ruxun looked at the Ming army who was having breakfast, and said with a smile: "It's not that we train like this every day, it's just to let the soldiers adapt to Siam's climate as soon as possible and avoid acclimatization, so we increase the amount of training to let the soldiers get used to the Siamese climate." Running and sweating in such a climate, they will be able to adapt to the climate faster. After adapting to the climate, they will be able to compete with the Dongwu people on the battlefield. .”

King Naresuan nodded.

"So that's the case, but the training of the Heavenly Soldiers is really majestic. Xiao Wang is looking forward to it. If Xiao Wang's army can also have the training of the Great Heavenly Soldiers, I think it will not let the Dongwu people defeat it many times. So much so that Xiao Wang became a hostage and was not allowed to return to China for several years."

King Narexuan had a desolate look on his face, as if he remembered the unbearable days when he was a hostage in Burma.

However, Mang Yinglong treated him well, and let him receive Portuguese military education with the Burmese royal family. He is also a half-European student with a relatively high level of education. Yes, it can only be said that it is mentally painful, so I don't want to look back, but now that he raised this matter, the reason and purpose are very clear.

He wanted Daming to send some sergeants who are good at training to help his army train to increase organization and combat effectiveness, because the equipment of his army is no longer inferior to that of the Ming army, but the combat effectiveness is far behind in comparison, except for the firearms troops. In addition, the gap in combat effectiveness of field troops is the largest.

Under his command, the Japanese Ronin Corps has the strongest field combat ability, but the motherland of such an army was beaten to pieces by the Ming army, and the country was almost subjugated. Such a comparison shows that the field combat ability of the Ming army is far superior to that of the Japanese army. , also concluded on Siam Army.

Now that the Ming army got up so early to train their troops in full swing, he seemed to understand why the Ming army's combat effectiveness was so strong.

He also longs for a strong army that can help him restore his country to its former glory.

Xiao Ruxun pretended not to understand.

"The Dongwu people are really hateful. They not only invaded the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but also bullied Siam to this point. They have no heavenly dynasty. It is time to teach them a lesson. Don't worry, my lord. This time the soldiers from the Ming Dynasty will call those gangs The Shanye barbarians know what is called the Kingdom of Heaven! Unless they are completely wiped out, Daming will never return to the teacher! Brothers, are you right?!"

"right!!!!"

The voices of the soldiers of the Ming army were earth-shattering and deafening.

King Narexuan smiled awkwardly.

The morale of the Ming army is high, the training is sufficient, and the combat power is elite. There is no possibility of defeat at all, but he needs more than that. He hopes that the Ming army can send someone to help him train the army!

He heard that the North Koreans had been trained by the instructors of the Ming army, and he wanted to!
