Yun Zheng was thinking, since when people began to talk badly and began to become roundabout, things that can be clearly explained in one sentence or even one word, you have to pretend to go around hundreds of circles to make you understand what he wants to say.

This is not conducive to communication, this is a kind of rebellion, a kind of regression, the product of a person showing off his superior IQ in front of another person, and I like the coolness of a man who fell in love with a woman and knocked him out with a stick in ancient times.

"There is no one here, and if the privy envoy wants to say anything, please say it clearly, and all the lowly duties will be obeyed!" Yun Zheng put down his chopsticks, sat up straight, looked at Di Qing and said slowly.

Di Qing took a piece of steamed fish from the vegetable bowl in front of him, then sat up straight and looked into Yun Zheng's eyes and asked, "How long can the combat power of the Wu Sheng Army be maintained?" Or when are you going to give up on Wushengjun? ”

Yun Zheng frowned and said: "Wu Shengjun is just a product of buying time for the Young Army, naturally it needs to be kept for as long as possible, if it can squeeze its value clean, it is naturally the best thing."

But for now, the survival of the Wusheng army does not depend on me, but depends on the Yanyan princes in the court, I think that the best collapse when the Great Song Dynasty can still support, people in the peaceful and prosperous world will always habitually forget the danger in the distance, once the catastrophe comes, those people will recall that the Great Song Dynasty also had a strong army, maybe they will regret that they destroyed a strong army with their own hands, and when the young army rises in the future, they will have a little scruple when they start. ”

Since Di Qing has seen through his own arrangement, it is extremely disrespectful to lie at this time, especially Di Qing, Yun Zheng always wants to leave the impression of a downright gentleman to this commander.

When he looked up at Di Qing, he found that he was stunned, and Yun Zheng couldn't help but think, did he say the wrong thing just now?

Di Qing's expression regained his calm in an instant, picked up the chopsticks, and diligently sandwiched a piece of the fattest meat on the belly of the fish for Yun Zheng, and said with a smile: "Tell me, talk about the Young Army, what do you think?" ”

Now that he has already said the idea of forming a boy army. At this time, there was no need to hide it, Yun Zheng groaned and said: "The foundation of the Wusheng Army is broken, no matter how I train, this army is destined to become a big weapon." ”

Di Qing nodded and said, "Speaking of selecting soldiers." It's a science. In all dynasties, everyone knows how to do it, and the ingenuity is different. The standard of the Warring States period was to have a lot of strength and be able to run.

Wu Qi's standard for selecting military soldiers in the Wei State is beyond the reach of our Great Song Dynasty, and the people who participated in the examination wore three-layer armor, carried a hard crossbow that could open twelve stones, carried an arrow bag containing fifty arrows, carried Ge, wore a helmet on his head, and wore a sword at his waist. With three days' worth of dry rations, he marched a hundred miles in half a day. No army has been able to do such a request.!

Li Tang is the world of light cavalry, and the recruitment standard is naturally good at cavalry and archery, and the army of Chang'an garrison is known as "flying cavalry", "hundred cavalry", "thousand cavalry", and "ten thousand cavalry".

It's time for our big song. The north was divided, and Ma Yuan was gone, only the infantry was fiercely operated, so the main physical standard for recruiting soldiers became long and strong. At that time, Taizu personally selected a group of strong sergeants to serve as "soldiers" and distributed them to various places to be used as model soldiers for recruitment.

I don't know, the old man was born like a soldier, and later he thought that "soldier-like" was too troublesome. Changed to a wooden staff, called "equal length staff", recruited according to the size of the body, the long and strong as the forbidden army, the short and weak when the van army, to the period of the first emperor. The number of soldiers is very small, so they recruit from prisoners, and even recruit the displaced people who have suffered from natural disasters as the army, so that the army can talk about bravery!

Wu Shengjun is such a prisoner. If the army formed by the outcasts has just become an army, with your wisdom there is still a way to train them to become a strong army, because the people who formed this army at that time, whether they were violent or cowardly, still had their own character and temperament.

It's a pity that Wu Shengjun has been in the army for nearly 30 years, and many years of military career have turned these people into pieces of wood, without benevolence and righteousness, without a sense of shame, and only to eat and have nothing else to ask for in this life.

Where does such an army get its combat effectiveness, as long as you give money, you can eat enough and ask them to rebel! When the old man was training for the regiment, he used the harsh method to drill the soldiers, and wanted to change the box army, who knows, those soldiers would rather harm themselves than go into battle, and there were more than 60 people in a battalion of soldiers who cut off their toes......"

Di Qing closed his eyes painfully when he said this, and Yun Zheng picked up the wine jug to help Di Qing fill it and whispered, "No wonder you can see through the essence of Wu Shengjun at a glance. ”

"The old man would rather not see through it himself, so that he can see hope from Wu Shengjun, and see the solution to the more than one million Xiang army of the Great Song Dynasty, even if he deceives himself, it is easier than being an understanding person now.

Yun Zheng, you are a wise man, you read more than the old man, you come to sue me, can you really turn an army into a fearless warrior, of course, without a large amount of money. ”

Yun Zheng thought about the chilling feeling he had when he first saw Wu Shengjun, and couldn't help but shudder again, and said with a wry smile: "Can't!" ”

These two words didn't seem to disappoint Di Qing, he nodded and said, "The old man can't either!" Tell me about your boy army, do you really plan to recruit sergeants from among the soldiers? It's even harder than training your army to be an invincible warrior. ”

Yun Zheng said with a smile: "There are a few soldiers in the army who are already good, who dares to have such thoughts, Di Shuai, although I have no way to turn the current Xiang army into a warrior, I have a way to turn their children into real warriors!" You also said that a hundred years of life is just a flick of a finger, and it is inevitable that one generation will accumulate money and one generation will rise to prominence.

I have been doing this, the most important place of Wushengjun is not in Dujiangyan, but in Wushengbao in Huanzhou, where the women and children of Wushengjun live, Wushengjun's military marquis Jiang Zhe is in charge of training those children, they not only have to learn martial arts, but also learn to read, and most importantly, to cultivate their sense of honor, and the determination to win.

You just said that the method of selecting the army in the previous era and the army selection in the Great Song Dynasty is too biased, only paying attention to a person's physique, but not paying attention to a person's spiritual world at all, how can such an army be invincible?

Compared with fighting for the death, Wu Shengjun pays more attention to the development and research of weapons, that kind of gunpowder bullet, that is, the earth-shaking thunder in your mouth, will sooner or later become the king of the battlefield, once the weapon becomes more advanced, the physical requirements for the soldiers will decrease, so that it is convenient for me to recruit more people, killing the enemy outside the hundred zhang, is the highest essence of marching and fighting. And not just fighting. ”

Di Qing couldn't help but smile and said, "You plan to change the appearance of combat for thousands of years, and plan to set a precedent for a generation?" You just said that the training of the children of the Wusheng Army was indeed unexpected by the old man, but it was a little more difficult to kill the enemy outside a hundred zhang! ”

Yun Zheng raised the wine glass and toasted Di Qing with a glass and said with a smile: "Thousands of years ago, we engraved the words on the tortoise shell, and later cast them on bronze vessels, wrote them on silk silk, and only wrote them on paper in the Han Dynasty, which shows that the world is not static, but moving forward in exploration, you have already seen the power of the earth-shaking thunder, why do you suspect that the enemy is outside a hundred zhang?"

The eight-bull crossbow is the most powerful throwing weapon at present, it has been able to throw the crossbow gun to 700 paces away, as long as I have more eight-bull crossbows in my hand, and use the crossbow gun to load gunpowder bullets, do you still think that I can't kill the enemy a hundred feet away? ”

Di Qing said hesitantly: "Do you think the old man doesn't know what an eight-bull crossbow is?" That thing wants to be pulled apart, there are no thirty people to think about it, and finally the winch is used, and it also needs eight people to operate, that thing is extremely bulky, how are you going to move, is it only used to defend the city? It's not advisable. ”

Yun Zheng laughed and said: "You said that this thing used to require thirty soldiers to pull it apart, and then it was reduced by twenty-two people with a winch, are you sure that the Wusheng Army's Eight Bull Crossbow also needs eight people?" The appearance of the winch reduced the number of people to eight, and you don't want to think about how many people can be reduced with the appearance of the ratchet?

You said that it is not easy to carry the eight-ox crossbow, we only need to add two wheels to the eight-ox crossbow, and a mule can easily drag three eight-ox crossbows around, what is not easy to carry, you have fought for so many years, you didn't think of loading two wheels on the eight-bull crossbow? ”

Di Qing immediately squirted out a mouthful of wine that he had just put in his mouth, and immediately pulled Yun Zheng's sleeve and said: "Zeng Gongliang said that you used gunpowder to blow up the main hall of the smoke temple in Shuzhong, and the old man still didn't believe it, but now I know, you used the Eight Bull Crossbow to blow it up!" ”

Yun Zheng said proudly: "What kind of eight-bull crossbow do you use, stuff gunpowder into Sanqing's stomach...... God knows how the smoke view was destroyed, and it was punished by heaven! ”

Being able to squirt out the wine in surprise to a generation of famous generals, Yun Zheng was in a very good mood, and he couldn't prevent this guy from mentioning the old thing of taking the smoke view, and he almost stopped admitting himself.

Di Qing laughed and said: "That is to stuff gunpowder into the stomach of the Sanqing statue and blow it up, the old man already knows, this kind of murderous thing will be done less in the future, and after doing it, he will die and not admit it, otherwise he will be like the old man with a gold stamp on his face, hehe, as a general, his heart is not black, his hands are not spicy, what is the general, if it is blown up, it will be blown up, what is the matter." ”

The corners of Yun Zheng's mouth twitched slightly, none of the old guys in the Great Song Dynasty were good, they were all human spirits, and it would be better to close their mouths and pretend to be unfathomable in the future.

Di Qing stopped laughing and said to Yun Zheng: "Tomorrow, your martial arts victory army will go to battle, let the old man see your ability to kill the enemy beyond a hundred zhang, and the western army will lose two elites." ”

Yun Zheng said angrily: "I don't have the ability to kill the enemy outside of Baizhang yet, but I can barely do it without killing people when defending." ”
