Chapter 1379: The Twenty-Eighth Battalion of the Confucian Army (Overhaul)
The first big flag, waving in the wind, with three big characters on it, "Thai Army". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Fortunately, Mai Ke has a good foundation in ancient writing, and he knew that this Tai tribe was actually derived from a "Tai Training" in "Huainanzi".
This Tai character, Da Ye, clan, Ji Ye, that is, the meaning of the gathering of large armies.
And the whole miscellaneous family, that is, the meaning of integrating the strengths of each family into a family.
Therefore, although the miscellaneous family has a derogatory meaning, it is actually the highest and the broadest vision, and it is more sophisticated than any school.
In addition to one of the Tai troops, which belonged to the unique sons of the miscellaneous family, there were also troops of other factions who returned to the battlefield.
Among the various schools, if there is one school that can convince each school, it is the miscellaneous family.
Therefore, the masters of the miscellaneous family, each of them is not inferior to the masters of each family.
Now that the miscellaneous family has come up, all the factions have returned again, and Confucianism has also put the treasures at the bottom of the box on the field.
Confucianism sent the main force, and the main force of the Celestial Army also came into play.
The main force of the Celestial Army is a large army led by the sheep breed.
In this way, the children of various schools led by those miscellaneous families were turned into auxiliary troops.
The main force of Confucianism on the field, this is the "Twenty-Eight Character Battalion" of the Confucian Army built by Ding Shanqing and Zeng Guofan.
Which twenty-eight words?
That's it!
morality, faith, thought, diligence and forbearance;
benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, friendship, courage and generosity;
gentle, courteous, thrifty, and forgiving;
Loyalty, filial piety, virtue and strictness!
Ding Shanqing's battalion had a fixed strength of 3,000 people, and the entire Confucian army totaled 90,000 people.
He deliberately hired Zeng Guofan as the honorary commander-in-chief, and he himself served as the commander-in-chief of the Confucian army.
Today, Mai Ke led a group of people with profound theoretical skills to start a big debate with these Confucian theoretical elites, entangled Zeng Guofan and Ding Shanqing.
Now the leader is the deputy commander-in-chief, who is also a famous Confucian general at that time, that is, a generation of young heroes Zhao Liewen, who is very smart and capable, and is very favored by Zeng Guofan.
And Zeng Guofan is optimistic about him, not because he can flatter, but because he is extremely assertive and far-sighted.
Once, he and Zeng Guo talked about his views on the Manchu court.
His point of view is that the Manchu Qing Dynasty "must first be fundamentally reversed, and then the rear state has no owner, and people are in charge of their own affairs, and they will not survive for 50 years!"
Zeng Guofan retorted: "This dynasty is virtuous, or not here." ”
Liewen retorted: "It was too easy to start a business at the beginning of the Manchu Dynasty, and the punishment was too heavy, so it was too clever to have the world! ”
It means that when the Manchu Qing Dynasty was founded, there were too many people and too many evils, even if the future kings were good, they could not make up for the sins of those founders, so their so-called good was unreliable.
From a historical point of view, this young Zhao Liewen has a much higher vision than Zeng Guofan!
And with the booster of Mai Ke and others, Zeng Guofan's point of view is even more untenable.
Zeng Guofan actually had to think that he couldn't say that the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which he had assisted for decades, was useless, right?
Therefore, he can only stare and talk nonsense, knowing that he can't do it, but he wants to stop, what he says is simply unreasonable, and he is blindly loyal to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Although the two disagreed, Zeng Guofan's appreciation for him increased day by day!
Because, as soon as Ding Shanqing said that he needed a powerful assistant, Zeng Guofan was the first to think of Zhao Liewen.
Zeng Guofan didn't think of the other senior members under him.
But on the one hand, they are already in charge of their own shares, and on the other hand, he also believes that they are not qualified candidates.
In a certain aspect, they may be good, but in an overall measure, they are not both civil and military talents who can stand alone and take on the overall situation.
Moreover, this kind of civil and military shuangquan is not a civil and military shuangquan in the traditional sense, but a pioneering and enterprising, innovative spirit of civil and military shuangquan!
What about this Zhao Liewen, Zeng Guofan admits that he is better than himself in many aspects!
Therefore, he still sent him to serve as the commander of this Confucian army.
Although it is a vice, it is no different from the positive, because Ding Shanqing's mind still has Yuelu Academy, as well as the study of military theory.
At the same time, even if he is involved in the military, he is mainly engaged in army building, not in military management, and still less in fighting wars.
Therefore, today's confrontation between the two armies is actually Zhao Liewen against the sheep breed!
Zhao Liewen's 60,000 Confucian army, according to the establishment of the 28-character battalion, backed by Yuelu Mountain, some people stood in line, some people guarded the camp, the military discipline was strict, and the degree of relaxation actually showed a dignified military might.
The sheep breed led the soldiers of the sheep family, a total of three armies!
The three armies were all dispatched, divided into left and right, against the Confucian army.
In the middle of the army formation, the sheep breed is in the middle of the command, and the two armies are on his left and right, each with a military flag.
The army on the right is the Eternal Army, and the two big regular scripts on the military flag: Eternity!
The army on the left is the Eternal Army, and the two words Dou Da are also on the military flag: Eternal Life!
There is also a army in the middle, and on the military flag, there are four big characters: Jesus Elite Soldier!
The three armies are all standard establishments, all of them are three-three systems, all the way down to the class units.
An army has three divisions under its jurisdiction, and each division has a quota and actual strength of 10,000 men.
Therefore, in terms of numbers, the Yangjia army is also 90,000 people, which is equal to the rival Confucian army.
Of course, these soldiers are not all children of the Yang family, but the officers are!
The soldiers were recruited from elsewhere and belonged to the elite of the sheep family.
However, whether it is a child of the Yang family or someone with a foreign surname, they all have one thing in common.
They are all Christians!
These people have been tested by the flames of war, and they are very strong in their faith!
Today, they are going to compete with these Confucian disciples on the basis of their firm faith!
Behind these regular armies were the sons and daughters of the various schools, who, though still gathered under the banner of their own schools, had heard the Gospel, and many had decided to come to faith in Christianity.
Now they use their own school of thought to oppose Confucianism, and they know that it is only the opposition between two opposing ideas, and that none of them has the absolute truth, which is the truth of heaven preached by the Lord Jesus.
The two armies stood opposite each other, and Zhao Liewen was really a bit of a trick. He actually mobilized before the battle!
He said: "Today, we will represent Confucian orthodoxy and fight to the death! Do you know what spirit each of you represents?"
"Yes!"
There was a thunderclap, and 90,000 people burst into applause.
After that, the battalions signed up, and the three thousand people also ripped their throats and screamed!
From the beginning to the end, everyone was bombarded by thunder twenty-eight times!
Dao, Virtue, Faith, Thinking, Diligence, Forbearance, Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, Friendship, Courage, Tolerance, Gentleness, Kindness, Gong, Thrift, Provincial, Forgiveness, Straightness, Loyalty, Filial Piety, Temperance, Virtue, Compassion, Strictness!
A burst of scorching thunder rolled by, and the morale of the Confucian army soared suddenly!
