The grenade was stronger than Bai Wutong had imagined, but the soldiers in the martial arts arena were so excited that their hands and feet were trembling.

With such a powerful weapon, not to mention defending against the attacks of the Ling Kingdom, it would be easy for them to even take down the Ling Kingdom.

The soldiers looked in Bai Wutong’s direction and felt heartfelt admiration and grateful for choosing to stay.

Otherwise, they might die under these shockingly powerful grenades one day.

They had thought that grenades were the most shocking weapon. Unexpectedly, after a few days, when they returned to the Baye training base, they received another assault rifle each.

Unlike the grenades that would be used up once thrown, the assault rifle would become their personal weapon.

Although it was not as powerful as the grenade, its range was several times that of throwing a grenade.

…..

As long as one loaded the bullet and aimed at the enemy, one could kill the enemy from a few hundred meters away.

When the enemy had a large number of people, even if they did not aim accurately, a casual shot could cause countless casualties.

The combination of grenades and assault rifles was completely invincible on the battlefield.

The soldiers touched the gun shaft and felt very safe.

Lu Ye had already received guidance on gun training.

He had to raise the gun, load it, aim at the bull’s-eye, and pull the trigger in one smooth motion.

“Bang—”

Lu Ye hit the bullseye, and the target was actually 500 meters away.

Everyone knew that the assault rifle could shoot so far, but seeing it shoot for hundreds of meters with their own eyes still shocked them.

Lu Ye, who was holding an assault rifle, felt his hands go numb from the powerful recoil. Through the target that was shot, he seemed to have seen a rising military empire.

He was so excited that he could not calm down for a long time. He looked at the dumbstruck soldiers behind him and waved his arm. “1 pledge my loyalty to the Great Empress!”

The soldiers shouted excitedly, “We pledge our loyalty to the Great Empress!”

Pledging loyalty to the Great Empress was a bright future that they could see, even though the total population of the southern frontier was only slightly more than the Ling Kingdom’s Imperial City.

They also believed that their Carefree Kingdom was unstoppable.

The soldiers’ enthusiasm for training was high. Many brave men had heard of the power of the assault rifle and even took the initiative to join the army to serve the country.

Bai Wutong took the opportunity to select some outstanding and loyal soldiers. The new commoners smiled and said, “This is the first time I’ve seen people so enthusiastic about joining the army.”

No matter how strong the military was, there would be times when people died.

In the past, before the Yan Kingdom was destroyed, the commoners were most afraid that the soldiers would come to the village to capture men for military service.

There was a high chance that he would not be able to return.

The soldier who had just returned from training said, “You don’t know how powerful our Carefree Kingdom is! When those little fellows from the Ling Kingdom come, they will definitely pee their pants and cry for their parents!”

For the time being, the new citizens only wanted to earn money steadily and live a small life. They waved their hands. “No matter how good it is, we won’t enlist!”

The soldier immediately smiled smugly. “You can’t enlist even if you want to. The requirements for becoming a soldier are very high now. Not only do they have to look at your height, but they also have a doctor check your body. Most importantly, they will pay you five taels of silver a month! The more educated you are, and if you pass the test, will earn at least ten taels of silver a month!”

“Ten taels?” The eyes of the people around widened.

If they earned ten taels a month, wouldn’t that be 120 taels a year!

God, how could being a soldier earn more than being an official?

If they could also be chosen, wouldn’t they be able to buy two apartments a year!

“Really? Will they not give us money?”

It was common for the Imperial Court to be stingy on the salary and rations. Everyone subconsciously felt that Bai Wutong would not use so much money to keep the soldiers.

The soldier raised his eyebrows. “If you don’t believe me, why are you still working in the workshop? Isn’t that also a workshop run by the Imperial Court?”

As soon as he said this, the new commoners were stunned for a long time. When they reacted, they immediately asked excitedly, “Where can we sign up? Tell us quickly!”

The soldier chuckled. “I’m not telling you.” Then he stalked off.

If it was true, they would miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The new citizens stomped their feet and had no choice but to ask around themselves.

When they found out where the registration was, they learned that the registration for the army had ended.

Moreover, the soldiers who did not pass the first training would be eliminated.

In order not to be eliminated and embarrass themselves, every soldier secretly practiced harder.

Every time their relatives saw them doing push-ups at home, they could not help but tease, “If our Carefree Kingdom doesn’t win, the heavens won’t tolerate it!”

In a war, soldiers and weapons were an important component, and so was medical care at the rear.

Although there was a high chance that not many of them would die in a battle of firearms, compared to the number of people participating in the battle, the number of medical staff they needed was still very little.

If the doctors were transferred away, their local medical care would be severely in shortage.

When Cui Lingyi founded the Qinghe Women’s Technical College, Bai Wutong specially asked her to establish a medical course.

They knew how to deal with basic external injuries and also knew how to use basic medicine to treat illnesses and care for patients. They were equivalent to modern day nurses. After all, it was impossible to become a doctor in a year.

In modern times, it would take years for a nurse to undergo professional training.

However, most of the injuries on the battlefield were superficial. What they had learned during this period was enough to be of use.

Bai Wutong issued an order to gather the medical staff. There was no restriction on gender, and it suddenly caused a commotion.

After all, in everyone’s impression, the women in the army were only military prostitutes and old aunties.

It was clearly difficult to recruit women as a military doctor.

As soon as recruitment flyer was distributed, the disciples of the Medical Hall established by Gu Zhongxun and Wen Renhua responded to the call.

There were both men and women in the Medical Hall, but only male disciples responded to the recruitment.

Even if a woman wanted to follow her senior brothers, she would be stopped by her family.

Firstly, they did not want their daughter to be involved with men in the military and affect her reputation.

Secondly, there was danger on the battlefield. What if something happened?

They had only been learning for a few months, and their skills were only semi-professional. They could not even check a person’s pulse, so it was even more impossible for everyone to be at ease.

However, it was different for male disciples. No matter how bad they were, they were still men. If they could not save the patients, at the very least, they could go into battle to kill the enemies and provide logistics support. Therefore, their families agreed and even applauded them for having such courage.

Bai Wutong knew the girls’ concerns very well. She specially found Lu Ye to promise everyone that the army was strict with its laws and would definitely not let them suffer any harm. She would ensure their safety and even warned all the soldiers.

Even so, the girls were still worried.

Insufficient medical care at the backend would make the soldiers feel insecure.

Therefore, faced with the situation of insufficient manpower, Bai Wutong extended the recruitment to all the citizens of Carefree City.

Even if they did not have any medical knowledge, after they were selected, they would be trained to become official medical staff in the army. They would still have two taels of silver a month and enjoy all the benefits and treatment officially arranged by the Imperial Court. After they returned, outstanding members would still have a chance to become medical teachers.

As soon as the notice was issued, the commoners immediately signed up.

After all, medical work was easier and more respected than other physical work..
