The Rise of the European Emperor

Because of the need to identify spies, this basic training did not use the most popular method of wearing shoes on one foot and bare feet on the other in the Beihai National Army. Instead, it used the traditional method to forcibly distinguish between left and right.

"Left to right, left to right, left to right, right to right..." More than 300 veteran instructors looked helplessly at the more than 30,000 Austrian farmers stretching their feet and legs in a hurry, feeling very embarrassed.

They are all veterans, and they are used to training recruits with bare feet and shoes, but this time they follow the normal routine, and they don't know how to do it.

In particular, many ignorant Austrian farmers were abducted by the hasty password. Moreover, this abduction is so contagious...

Looking at the Austrian farmers on the field, more than 300 veteran instructors wanted to die...

Then……

"I can't take it anymore!" An instructor raised his whip, and the others began to follow suit.

The farmers who were on the turn were whipped, and hundreds of gendarmes turned a blind eye on the sidelines. This year is not the 21st century, but it doesn't matter what is not allowed to beat and scold soldiers. As long as you don't get hurt, you can...

And veteran instructors generally have a skill - they can beat you very painfully, but they just can't hurt you...

Under the threat of whips, many people were forcibly pulled back slowly along the crutches. But there are also those who are relatively stupid, the more anxious they are, the more they turn the turn, they are beaten to the ground, but they still stubbornly turn the turn...

As for turning left and turning right, there are often scenes of being confused and self-doubting with the teammates next to you after turning around...

"Did I make a wrong turn?" The farmer who turned in the wrong direction was worried.

"Did I make a wrong turn?" The farmer who turned in the opposite direction was also in self-doubt.

Fortunately, they didn't have to doubt for too long, the instructor's whip fell on the person who turned the wrong way...

In the entire training ground, apart from the instructor's shouting instructions, there was only the sound of "crackling" whips whipping people.

The instructors were very angry, and the farmers also looked scared, afraid of being whipped. On the side, 100 gendarmes are holding small books and recording the performance of the farmers.

For the convenience of recording, all the farmers participating in the training wore livery. It is a white vest with numbers written on it, so that it is convenient for the instructor to roll the roll. After all, it is difficult to remember the names of recruits. In particular, European names are still very long.

If encountering a super long Portuguese name, the instructor will have a cerebral hemorrhage just by memorizing the soldier's name. Therefore, it is relatively simple and trouble-free to roll names and issue orders according to the numbers on the livery.

And the gendarmes who watched the excitement from the sidelines also recorded their personal performance according to the codes on their uniforms.

On the surface, they are here to record top performers, and then distribute food rewards according to performance. But in reality, they were identifying spies.

"A15 (A is the platoon number, which is equivalent to the first row) performed excellently, with clear distinction between left and right, no straight turns... rated as A..." a military policeman recorded.

"C13's performance is not bad. At first, it was deflected by people, but it was quickly corrected. There is a clear distinction between left and right...Evaluation is B..."

The gendarmes would record everyone with an A and a B, because, Marin said, spies might start pretending to be unprofessional too. However, after being whipped, they don't like it, they will go downhill and get back soon.

As for the B-level and below, it is the kind that has received a lot of whips. It's basically impossible, because spies also have dignity and don't want to be whipped too much. If it was in ancient China, there might be spies deliberately lying on the ground, but this is ancient Europe, the era of lack of strategy. If the spies can pretend and pretend at the beginning, they are considered professional, don't expect them to be professional.

After a few days, those who performed well not only had more abundant food, but were also gathered together for training. Nominally, they would be treated as "elite soldiers". Once in battle, these "elite soldiers" will also become leaders of small teams within these militias.

But in fact, they are being monitored intensively...

At the same time, some gendarmes will go to the groups where these people belonged to, inquire about the origins of these people, to see if their origins are unknown... As for why, the gendarmes explained that this is called a qualification review, which is a routine and a sign of organizational reuse...

This is not fooling around. In Beihai State's appointment process, there is indeed a qualification review process. It is mainly to check whether the resume is falsified, and whether the person's origin is unknown. It seems to be going through the motions perfunctorily, but in fact everyone who participated in the review is very shrewd. Once suspicious points are found, an undercover investigation will be launched.

This is also impossible. Beihai is a country of immigrants, and there are many people from other countries. In the army, 90% of the people are from other countries, and loyalty cannot be guaranteed. Can we not strictly censor?

...

After careful observation and review, it was found out that some hidden spies were deeper. These spies generally don't look around, and don't like to inquire. Because, their task is to come and lurk temporarily, and then use it when the time comes.

However, they did not expect that some inconspicuous performances during the military training would arouse suspicion. This time, the gendarmes of the Beihai Kingdom did not miss, and basically found them all.

Of course, because it was sent by the emperor, they couldn't do it immediately, they could only monitor it temporarily.

Because the effect is so good, Marin has decided to implement this method among French immigrants on the Delaware Peninsula. It is through the most basic left and right password training to identify those hidden spies.

After all, no matter what era the spies were, they were basically military-trained and had certain basic military capabilities. Through basic left and right training, although it is impossible to identify who the spy is, it can greatly reduce the scope of suspicion. After all, basic training is also difficult for ordinary farmers.

As for the spies, even if they hide at the beginning and the whip is pulled down, they are still proud of being spies, and they will definitely improve quickly. These days, European spies don't know how to study psychology to infer the enemy's psychology. Therefore, it is easy to be recruited.

...

When Marin was concentrating on identifying spies from Austria and France, Adler suddenly came to Emden Port from the Irish territory by boat, and asked Marin to send him a group of soldiers to participate in the Lithuanian war...

"I'm going, boss, are you impatient?" Marin was shocked. He had already tried to send Simon away, but unexpectedly, the boss Adler took the initiative to come up to him to die?

Marin couldn't say it clearly, so he could only tactfully persuade Adler not to go. But Adler seemed to be in a panic in Ireland and just wanted to go to war.

Marin is so anxious, he can't say that I cheated my brother-in-law, and I will definitely die this time... Adler has no scheming, if he accidentally slipped his mouth, will he still get along with Poland and Lithuania?

In desperation, Marin had no choice but to make a big move...
