At the end of the banquet, Cespedes led Li Mu and his party to visit the barracks.
"As early as the Spanish colonial period, this is the military camp set up by the Spanish colonists, the military camp is a large castle as a whole, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if it were not for the Spanish defenseless, we want to capture this castle at least 5,000 people to sacrifice."
Cespedes was proud when he introduced.
Li Mu smiled secretly, others don't know the details of Cespedes, Li Mu is very clear, when this guy started, there were only 170 poorly equipped militiamen, and they were basically hired under Cespedes, and there were no 5,000 people at all.
However, there is one thing that Cespedes is not wrong about, if it weren't for the defenselessness of the Spaniards, Cespedes would never have been able to capture this place.
"It's amazing," Benjamin chimed in, following Cespedes' meaning.
Li Mu and George Dewey exchanged glances, and they could easily find the smile in each other's eyes.
Tsk, even if you become president, you still have to brag, it's understandable, it's hard to dismantle it, no one will expose it.
"Now there are more than 6,000 young men in this barracks, they are the loyal fighters of our Republic of Cuba, the future of our Republic of Cuba, and although we can easily defeat the Spaniards, we must also minimize our sacrifices and preserve our living force as much as possible, so I beg you to teach these young people as much as possible what you have learned all your life, so that they may have a stronger will to fight and combat effectiveness, then I will be grateful."
Céspedes finally got to the point, and in human terms, he said: There is only so much vitality left in my Cuban Republic, you have to work hard, and when it is done, this president will be rewarded Li Mu suddenly remembered a question, according to Burnside and Santos, there are many Chinese in the army of the Republic of Cuba, but after Li Mu went ashore, all the people he saw were basically whites, and occasionally there were a few blacks, but there was not a single Chinese, which made Li Mu a little suspicious.
"That bastard in Nikolau is currently leading people to besiege Bayamo, our elite troops are fighting bloodily with the enemy in Bayamo, in order to reinforce as soon as possible, so if possible, I would like to ask you to start work as soon as possible, if you can complete the training work a day earlier, we can drive out the Spaniards a day earlier."
Cespedes' words explained Li Mu's doubts.
The Chinese troops are fighting to the death with the Spaniards on the front line, while you guys are eating, drinking, and having fun in the rear, and you have a Western food culture, which is too special.
"With all due respect, Mr.
Cespades, a civilian who has not received systematic military training before, needs at least six to eight months of intense training to become a qualified soldier, and the current war situation is obviously not suitable for all the energy to be spent on building an elite army, so the rotation training system can get more qualified soldiers."
Speaking militarily, George Dewey got into the groove and immediately put his opinion on it.
"Rotational training is fine."
Cespedes was confused, obviously not understanding what the phrase meant, but Cespedes immediately agreed, and Cespedes did not have much choice on this issue.
Li Mu and George Dewey have already discussed countermeasures on the ship, no matter what the outcome of the Republic of Cuba is, Li Mu and George Dewey must first ensure that Guantanamo Bay is controlled in their own hands, which requires Li Mu and George Dewey to screen out a trustworthy force in the process of training, so Li Mu and George Dewey need to use the rotation training system to contact as many troops of the Republic of Cuba as possible, instead of the trained troops prepared by the Republic of Cuba for Li Mu.
"I guess we'd better get to work as soon as possible, and as for the campfire in the evening, I don't think it's much necessary."
George Dewey was a workaholic and wanted to start working now.
"Well, of course, if you insist."
Céspedes was a little embarrassed, and George Dewey said this a little bit of accusing Cespedes of not doing their jobs properly.
"A proper combination of work and rest is still necessary."
Benjamin clears Cespedes at the right time.
"Yes, playing against the Spaniards is a long-term process, so we need to know when to relax and when to be vigilant so that we can be more efficient."
On this issue, Commander-in-Chief Rylitoimbi also has a say.
"I'm sorry, I don't know when to rest and when to work, but I know how to defeat the enemy."
When it comes to his field of expertise, George Dewey did not allow others to point fingers.
George Dewey was a professional soldier, in his professional field, George Dewey never saved face for anyone, let alone Rayleigh Toimby, even in the face of US President Grant, George Dewey would stick to his own opinions, which is also the real reason why George Dewey was not welcomed after the end of the Civil War.
In other words, such people are really loved and hated, they are capable, so when war comes, they are often the first choice of commanders; is also because they have the ability, so they are more or less a bit arrogant, and ordinary people can't get into their eyes.
As soon as George Dewey's words fell, the atmosphere at the scene was immediately extremely embarrassing, but George Dewey didn't care at all, and kept a slightly raised chin posture to look at Riley Toimby, and his confidence and arrogance spread unexpectedly.
"Okay, okay, the bonfire party has been canceled, but our gentlemen have been drifting at sea for almost a week, I think they need a day to repair, so it will be okay to start training tomorrow" Li Mu had to come out and thin the mud, on this issue, Li Mu has reached an agreement with George Dewey, and Li Mu will not interfere with George Dewey's work.
"Reem, you are not a soldier, so you don't understand, for a soldier, there is no need to adjust at all, as long as you enter the war zone, we will always maintain a combat state."
George Dewey: This is not even selling Li Mu's face.
Feeling George Dewey's toughness, Ralito Imby's face was finally difficult to look at, Vice President Caspar Hardy and Darwin Andrew's faces were not good-looking, and Cespedes's expression was also calm, but the satisfaction in his eyes was fleeting.
This is also Li Mu and George Dewey discussed the countermeasures, there are no two tigers in one mountain, an army can also only have one voice, from the first day Li Mu and George Dewey set foot in Cuba, the battle for the dominance of the army has begun, at this point, Li Mu and George Dewey do not intend to back down.
Li Mu knew very well that it was estimated that Rilitoimbi would not back down.
"Alright, General Rayleigh, gather all the warriors, and we're going to work from now on."
Cespedes supported George Dewey.
No matter what he thought in his heart, on the surface, Railitoimbi would not resist Cespedes's order, and as soon as Cespedes's words fell, Railitoimbi gave a military salute to Cespeds, and then turned to arrange.
"General George, your work attitude is admirable, and I am very relieved to entrust you with the training of the army."
Cespedes finally remembered to woo George Dewey.
"Your Excellency, I am not a general" The embarrassment on George Dewey's face flashed.
To be honest, judging from the military rank, George Dewey has no qualifications to insist in front of Raili Toimbi, after all, George Dewey is just a colonel, this is still promoted by Lin Lai, and he was just a major, and Rilitoimbi is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the Republic of Cuba, and this guy's military rank is actually marshal.

The grass platform team is actually like this, generals are everywhere, and there are many marshals like dogs, which does not mean that they have this ability, the major before George Dewey at least fought with a knife and a gun, and Raleietolebee, if he throws it into the American army, with this guy's big belly, he probably won't even be able to survive the recruit period.
"You are now, Mr.
George Dewey, I now appoint you Marshal of the Republic of Cuba to train the troops of the Republic of Cuba" Céspedes is a marshal at his own expense, and it is evident that he is not improvised.
"It's a great honor, thank you, Your Excellency, President, and I will definitely do my job well."
George Dewey did not shirk, and with the identity of this marshal, George Dewey also had the confidence to confront Rayleigh Toimby.
That's exactly what Cespedes meant.
A few words of effort earned a marshal Even Li Mu had to admire George Dewey's good luck, but there was nothing to be jealous of, the times create heroes, Cespedes needed a new marshal, George Dewey happened to appear by his side at this time, this is fate.
When the soldiers finished lining up on the school field, they could finally see the gap.
The two hundred people Li Mu asked for were all strong men who had experienced a hundred battles, and such people would not be too indulgent even if they were relaxed, and they were all modest.
Relatively speaking, the soldiers of the Republic of Cuba are not allowed to get on the stage, it is estimated that they are rarely able to drink, so the proportion of drinking is a bit high, and the queue is not very standardized, and it looks crooked and twisted It is really unorthodox, and some people even stand there and start to sway, maybe the next moment they will fall to the ground.
Sure enough, before Li Mugang finished sighing, some people in the queue of the Republic of Cuba began to stagger, and the proportion was quite large.
Relatively speaking, the two hundred people brought by Li Mu were much better, although they also drank some wine, but everyone could stay sober, after the assembly, these two hundred people were in a neat formation, the morale was high, and everyone's spirit was full, and there was no fatigue from a long journey.
The contrast was so stark that even Rayley Toimbe had to be dumbfounded.
"So be it, the bonfire in the evening is canceled."
Céspedes decided to relinquish power immediately, and if George Dewey could train these 6,000 men to be like 200, the Spaniards really had nothing to fear
