Chapter 905 was silent
The Guards Corps has a separate canteen in the palace. Meals in the canteen are at half past six. After training ends at six o'clock, they have half an hour to prepare for themselves. Take a shower, change clothes, rest for a while, and then you can start eating.
The daily meal mix is determined by the canteen and cannot be ordered.
According to Zhou Xu's thinking, for soldiers, eating is also a part of training. Their diet pays attention to a nutritional balance and at the same time replenishes the energy consumed throughout the day.
The recipes for each day are basically determined.
If soldiers are allowed to order food, and they only choose what they like to eat, how can we ensure that they have balanced nutrition?
Today Locke also ate with them, holding the dinner plate and knocking down a round of food. Looking at the food on the plate, Locke looked hesitant to speak.
Seeing the other party's expression, John felt a little confused.
Although there are fixed meals in their canteen, both the chef's skills and the daily dishes are much better than those in the canteen outside Dazhou, let alone the food in their village. Yes, isn't their clan leader dissatisfied?
“Chief, is this food not to your liking?”
"No."
Lock shook his head, and then looked at John with a strange look on his face.
“Didn’t you say we were going to eat braised pork chop today?”
“!!!”
At that moment, John felt like his brain was shaking.
Sean, who was sitting on the other side, asked casually.
"What? Patriarch, do you want to eat braised hooves?"
Hearing this, John's heart twitched hard, and he coughed heavily before Locke or Sion could speak again. Twice.
“Well, maybe the chicken drumsticks are sold out in the market today. I also like braised chicken nuggets. I’ve been tired for a day, so I’d better eat quickly and rest early after eating.”
At this time, John just wanted to get rid of this topic as quickly as possible.
But Sion didn't receive his signal and was about to say something.
As a result, he found that John's hand was already on his head. When he raised his head, his eyes were like looking at a dead person, which made Sean's heart tremble.
Although he still doesn't understand what the situation is, there is only one thing that he knows very well, and that is that he should shut up.
The meal was finished quickly, and by the time they returned to the dormitory, it was almost dark.
In this era, there are no programs at night, not to mention that training during the day is so tiring. Except for those who have their turn to be on duty at night, the rest of the soldiers basically just want to sleep when they return to the dormitory. They have to go to bed the next day. Keep training.
Locke has nothing against this.
However, at four o'clock in the morning the next day...
Accompanied by a rapid whistle, Locke, who was sleeping on the lower bunk, only heard a muffled sound of 'dong', and he was sleeping on the upper bunk. As if his biological instinct had been activated, Sion's whole body jumped up from the bed. The movement scared Locke awake on the spot.
Locke, who had no idea what was going on, was confused. The soldiers, including Sion, had already rushed out of the dormitory like crazy.
"No, when is this? Why are you going?"
While shouting, Locke, who subconsciously thought something had happened, also hurriedly ran outside.
Having just taken two steps, the voices of Sion and others could be heard in the open space outside the dormitory building.
"The first team has assembled!"
"The second team has assembled!"
"The third team..."
"..."
At the same time, John stood there wearing a training uniform with a police whistle hanging around his neck.
"Everyone, turn right! Run!"
Under Locke's almost confused eyes, the wood elf soldiers actually started running.
Looking up at the dark sky, it was so late at night, what kind of wind was this?
Locke, who was completely confused for a moment, couldn't help but look for John. "What are you doing in the middle of the night?"
"Emergency gathering training."
"..."
"If you encounter any emergency When a situation arises, for example, the enemy suddenly attacks while we are sleeping, we must gather as quickly as possible and then resist the enemy's attack. This is the training for this. ”
At this point, John explained again.
“Of course, considering that everyone has to train during the day, this training usually won’t be held at one or two o’clock in the middle of the night. It’s basically around four o’clock.”
“We usually do this in the summer. The morning training time is at 5:30. Today, it is equivalent to starting training one and a half hours earlier, and at the same time, training ends one and a half hours early in the morning. "
Locke generally understood this emergency gathering training, but he still did. There is something I can't figure out.
“No, these brats have no objection to tormenting them like this?”
According to Locke's idea, if this matter had been done in the past, these brats wouldn't have made a big fuss?
In response, John smiled slightly.
“No objection, everyone even likes it.”
“…”
“It’s hot in summer, it’s cool at this time.”
Locke couldn't sleep at this moment. Looking at the wood elf soldiers running, he simply took this opportunity to ask John the questions in his heart.
“You didn’t practice like that during the day before, right?”
“That’s not the case.”
Locke was relieved after hearing this answer. Sure enough, he was overthinking.
As a result, John's next words completely silenced him.
"There is one rest day a week. In addition, the daily training items are different. After all, the body and mental strength also need rest."
"So for these two parts of training, we They are all separated to allow the mind and body to have time to rest. At the same time, the specific training items are different every day."
"..."
Locke was silent. , it’s hard to imagine that these brats that I watched growing up would actually do this.
But the facts were before his eyes, and he couldn't help but not believe it.
Locke originally wanted to stay here for four or five days before leaving, but seeing how motivated the younger members of the clan had become, he couldn't stay any longer, so after resting for two days, he set out on his return journey. road.
At the same time, here in New Taipei District.
Compared with Xinnan District, which has complete facilities today, New Taipei District is much shabby.
According to Zhou Xu’s plan, drastic reconstruction is required here. Under such circumstances, the lives of the people here are generally hard.
Fortunately, under the Zhou Dynasty's policies, they basically had no worries about food and clothing, so they didn't cause any trouble. At most, it was just a bunch of people gathering there to vomit some bitterness.
It was the same today. Taking advantage of the noon break, a group of people gathered together, drank herbal tea, and complained about the hard life in front of them.
At this moment, an old man dressed simply but very neatly walked over and attracted everyone's attention.
“Hello everyone, I am Kong Daqian, the director of the Propaganda Department of the State Religion. After work today, our State Religion will have a speech in the open space next to it. Are you interested in knowing about our State Religion?”
"Oh, by the way, after the speech, you can queue up to receive a hard-boiled egg for free."
State religion? What the hell? The workers were not interested at all.
But they were very interested in the free boiled eggs!
