Chapter 175: Radicalization will be the heart of the army
Early the next morning, the government hall handed out the commendation document, and there was nothing else. The promotions and rewards that everyone in the Shenwu Army was expecting were all disappointed.
"Damn, these old guys in the political hall, take a piece of paper to fool people, what are you doing as brothers?"
Yang Xingben was the first to scold, he didn't have a good impression of several prime ministers in the political hall, and now that he has found a reason, he naturally won't accumulate virtue in his mouth.
"Yang Er, how many times have you told you to be cautious in your words and deeds, haven't you heard that trouble comes from your mouth?"
Lu Qi was very dissatisfied with Yang Xingben's repeated teachings and reprimanded. Yang Xingben responded with a grin.
"They are all brothers in the army, who can pass it on? When you get outside, look at me and say no?"
"Believe it or not, I'll pass it on to you now!"
"That's enough! Listen to General Zhonglang, everything is okay to everyone, today's first training gun formation, do you have the bottom in your heart?"
For the quarrel between these brothers, Pei Jing really had a headache. To tell the truth, the practice of the political affairs hall did make the brothers feel cold, but they also knew that this matter could not be fought for, and the Shenwu Army was already offended by the prime ministers of the martial arts, so could they still be expected to greet each other with a smile? Now I only see what kind of attitude Qin Jin is in the middle of the general!
Qin Jin expected that the Political Affairs Hall might not give them a good face, but he didn't expect that the Political Affairs Hall would only give them a commendation document. Isn't this fucking going to the grave to burn waste paper and fooling the hell?
The Shenwu Army fought back against the army of Gao Yang and Chen, even if it was nothing more than a promotion to the official position of a person in the army, it was reasonable to give a certain material reward, right?
The so-called captains, brigade leaders and other positions of Pei Jing, Lu Qi and others in the army are just dispatches, but the officers are all petty officials from their fathers, and the highest is only the ninth grade. Although these people don't take promotion seriously, Qin Jin knows that they care, so they have the intention to fight for it.
But now it seems that this idea will be difficult to realize for a while and a half, unless there is a chance to go into battle and make military achievements, otherwise the political hall will not be able to pass.
Qin Jin originally wanted to take out the gold and silver rewarded by the emperor from his house and distribute it to the soldiers of the Shenwu Army to encourage him, but the family elder shook his head after hearing this.
"The head of the family must not entrap the soldiers with personal favors, which is a taboo in the court!"
After being reminded, Qin Jin suddenly woke up. In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that it will become a precursor to the people's hearts and bad intentions! Thinking of this, he can't help but feel bitter for a while, this is not good, that is not good, how can it be done?
He didn't expect that at noon, there would be a turnaround.
The Son of Heaven allocated 3,000 gold from the inner treasury, and 3,000 silk silk personally ordered Zhang Fuchen to escort him to the Shenwu Army garrison in the Forbidden Garden. When the big cars drove into the barracks, they were greeted by cheers that resounded in the sky.
"When the slave and maid came, the sage said, the Shenwu army brought out by Zhonglang is brave and good at fighting, and the disposal of the political hall is a little mean, and the hearts of the soldiers cannot be chilled. ”
Pei Jing and the others were excited, the Son of Heaven actually remembered them, wasn't it just to be an official and a general, just to hear before the Son of Heaven? Now the Son of Heaven actually knew that they were wronged and paid out of his own pocket as a reward, how could he not be moved?
"General Zhonglang, quickly receive the order and thank you!"
Zhang Fuchen looked at Qin Jin, who was stunned, and reminded him.
Qin Jin suddenly said: "The saint is rewarded, and the minister is ashamed!"
"It's not worthy of it at all, the sage said, Zhonglang will be rewarded, if it weren't for the prime ministers of the political hall to stop him, he would have been promoted separately!"
As for the reward, the peaks and turns like this, and the soldiers of the Shenwu Army forgot the unhappiness of the early morning for a while, and devoted themselves to the training of the gun array.
Qin Jin couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the requirements of the generals and soldiers in the army were actually not high, three thousand gold and three thousand silk silks, and it was just a drop in the bucket when they were distributed to everyone, but they were still as excited as children. At the same time, he was also lamenting Li Longji's means of winning people's hearts, and with just a show of his hands, he used the political hall as the best negative reference.
However, Qin Jin did not have a natural sense of reverence for imperial power, and he also lacked affection for Li Longji himself, so he did not buy his method of entrapment, but was just happy to see it happen.
Although the officers and men of the Shenwu Army had the foundation of several months of training queues, when forming a gun formation, the effect was not as good as the effect of the Xin'an United Soldiers rushing into battle in actual combat.
After conducting several drills, Qin Jin discovered the problem.
The Tang army was in a pawn, and the standard weapons were all well-made Mo knives. On the other hand, the wooden spears in their hands were really rudimentary, and this seemingly clumsy method of battle was really far from what they imagined.
In the Shenwu Army, even ordinary soldiers have the children of eunuchs, and the spirit and vision of these people are so high that naturally the Xin'an United Army cannot speak of the same day.
It is true that their noble birth can make them naturally have a sense of honor that the children of the poor family cannot experience, and the cohesion of the army is much stronger than that of the conscripted civilians, but it is this innate pride that makes them very disdainful of the wooden guns in their hands, so when they train, they can not always devote themselves to it.
Qin Jin felt the need to carry out an ideological mobilization for the whole army, although he knew that he was not a good material for ideological work, but he always had to try it to know what the effect was.
First of all, he had to mobilize people above the brigade rate in the army.
"What do you think of the two doctors using soldiers?"
"The two doctors swept the Western Regions, I admire them!"
"That's right, what do you think of the thief's Yanliao Iron Cavalry combat power?"
"This ......"
"Nothing is taboo, everything is free to speak!"
Qin Jin saw that they were worried, so he added.
"To tell the truth, the Yanliao Iron Cavalry can be called the first border army of my Tang Dynasty, and the Khitan and Goryeo farts are full of urine, but it's a pity that they have become the rebel generals of the Tang Dynasty!"
Qin Jin nodded, Pei Jing's words were very pertinent, neither did he belittle the other party because of hostility, but also expressed his regret for such an elite team after it was stolen by An Lushan.
"Let me ask you another question, if you are allowed to lead 500 infantry against a thousand cavalry in the plains and wilderness, what are the chances of victory?"
Yang Xing was quick to speak, and immediately laughed.
"Needless to say, naturally the cavalry wins, and the foot soldiers lose!"
Pei Jing and the others also echoed, if it was a duel in the field, five hundred foot soldiers in front of a thousand cavalry, whether it was fighting or fleeing, the hope of success was extremely slim. Although they were very confident, they also knew that such a big talk as 500 foot soldiers defeating 1,000 cavalry could not be said in front of the lieutenant general.
Qin Jin smiled again: "What if you let you fight against a thousand thief cavalry with five hundred divine martial forces?"
The crowd was silent, and no one would say what they thought of it.
This is the effect of Qin Jin, and after a pause, he asked again:
"Can you win?"
"Can't!"
Pei Jing's voice was almost like a mosquito.
"Xin'an's unity soldiers can!"
Qin Jin said it word by word. As soon as these words came out, a whisper sounded in the tent.
Qin Jin didn't pay attention to what they were thinking, and continued: "You have also seen the mountain of rebel heads outside the Qinglong Temple, and among them are the ...... left after the defeat of the thousand people."
In fact, what Qin Jin said was somewhat untrue, after winning the confrontation with the rebels outside Changshi Township, due to the urgency of the situation, they had no time to cut off their heads. And the heads outside the Qinglong Temple, most of them belong to the corpses of the soldiers left behind after the fire in the valley of the Soap River. He said this just to make it more intuitive and shocking.
"You may have to ask, how can the five hundred united soldiers defeat the thief's 1,000 iron cavalry, I will tell you now, I tell you, I am telling you, relying on the formation of wooden guns that you despise!"
Qin Jin started with the Xin'an War and even the burning of Kunshan and the capture of Cui Qianyou, what he said naturally carried a lot of weight, and the degree of shock caused in the hearts of Pei Jing and others can be imagined.
"There's still something unclear about going down, please Zhonglang will solve the doubt!"
"But that's it!"
"Although the gun array is good, it can't wipe out the thieves, after the enemy formation collapses, you can only watch them slip away from the front, I don't know how Zhonglang will deal with it?"
Qin Jin smiled and asked, "If you watch the collapsed enemy soldiers flee, what's the use of cavalry?"
Lu Qi interjected: "Isn't the Shenwu army mainly based on foot soldiers? Where did the cavalry come from to pursue? Wuhu Huaizhong's five hundred men are enough?"
Qin Jin nodded solemnly, "It's enough! Five hundred people are chasing after 10,000 people, and the army is defeated!"
After all, Pei Jing and the others didn't have the energy to fight, and no matter how fanciful they were, they were already a little convinced.
"There's a reluctant invitation to go down!" Pei Jingsheng said with a red face.
Qin Jin made a gesture for him to continue.
"Please Zhonglang will supervise the instructors sent to the various ministries to be in place immediately!"
Qin Jin was waiting for this sentence, since Pei Jing took the initiative to say his thoughts, it also saved a lot of effort.
"Okay, I still have a hundred Xin'an troops here who have not gone to Tongguan, and they will all be allocated to you tomorrow. During this period, I will not interfere much in the details of the training, but the results of the test every seven days are the time to test the results of the school. When the time comes, I hope you will not disappoint me!"
Pei Jing bowed and said: "Please rest assured, in seven days, all departments of the Shenwu Army will definitely have a qualitative leap!"
In fact, Qin Jin's conversation today has already hurt their self-esteem greatly, if they are not as good as the united army formed by Tian Shefu, where will they put their faces? How can they raise their heads in front of people in the future and say that the Shenwu Army is the elite of the elite of the Tang Forbidden Army?
In the evening, Li Gou'er suddenly came to the Forbidden Garden military camp, and cried after seeing Qin Jin.
Qin Jin asked Li Gou'er to speak, and then he held back his crying, sobbed and said:
"The lady is missing!"
