Section 925 The Chinese are strong
When the two kings met, Yan Changwu stretched out his hand to Rajsinghe II and said, "Welcome, honorable king!" ”
"It's a pleasure to meet you, honorable king!" Rajsingh II also stretched out his hand, and the two shook each other tightly.
Rajesingh II has a hard hand, but Yan Changwu's face does not change, he usually pays attention to fitness and maintenance, and is accompanied and supervised by senior personnel in the attendant room, after all, the health of the leader is a major matter, and the high-ranking officials are hung with the name of the head of his attendant room, such as Chen Xinji, Mr. David, etc., if he is lazy, those people will admonish, and Mr. David will also accompany Yan Changwu to run and exercise together, so Yan Changwu is quite powerful.
The conversation between the two kings was told by a translator sent by the southeastern country, and the Kingdom of Kandy also had an interpreter, but his Chinese level was very poor, he stammered and spoke Chinese, and he was unable to be a translator, so he had to be said by the Chinese at both ends, and the Chinese translator could speak the proficient Kandy native language!
With the wisdom of the average Chinese IQ of 120, there is no problem in learning what language Shui Lanxing is.
With the inferior IQ of other peoples, it is even more difficult to learn square words.
Yan Changwu has great ambitions, his journey is the stars and the sea, often first merchants, to trade in various places, after a foothold, there are intelligence officers stationed in the station, understand the local situation, master the local language, in the military academy of the Southeast Army set up language majors in various places, teach languages, and encourage public officials to learn foreign languages of various countries, give allowances, the effect is remarkable.
For example, after the Southeastern Army occupied the city of Colombo, the Chinese directly translated into battle, used the local language to publicize the policy of the Southeast, went down to the people, and did it themselves, so as to avoid the disadvantages of being similar to the devil translator, otherwise the natives of the occupied areas would be assigned to do everything, and they could not upload and distribute it, and they were easily deceived by it.
After the hands were separated, they each introduced the accompanying officers and visited their respective armies.
Rajsingh II was even more frightened!
Because he saw that Yan Changwu's subordinates were all shrewd and capable, regardless of their abilities, they were generally lean and sturdy, and there were no fat people, and they were really handsome in their clothes (Zhongshan suits, military uniforms).
Looking back at the ministers and generals of their own Kandy Kingdom, the more they look at it, the more disgusted they become, they generally have the blood of Ah San (three of the nine Kandy kings have Tamil blood, and the Tamil are from Ah San), which is a huge neck and a fat waist, and a bloated body, compared to the Chinese, the Chinese are eagles, they are fat hens!
This feeling made Rajsingh II very uncomfortable, oh my God, he also saw that there were a lot of red-haired fans mixed with the Chinese in the southeast, and those red-haired fans wore the uniforms of the southeastern army, and they stayed in the Chinese army very harmoniously, they had the same temperament, and they obviously came from a war.
The Chinese are really incredible, and they can recruit so many red-haired fans to work as errands.
There are some red-haired instructors in the Kandy Kingdom, and they are generally domineering and superior, BS Kandyans, even if the Kandyans pay them to invite them!
What shocked him the most was the Chinese soldiers, the stick boys of Yishui, who were as vigorous as the rising sun!
Isn't the army supposed to be served by young people?
No, in the Kandy Kingdom, the Asan Princely State on the other side of the sea, and even the White Skin and Turkey Countries in Europe, the army is a lifelong system, and officers and soldiers can work until retirement, so it is not uncommon for there to be many uncles in the army and soldier class of the Kandy Kingdom, as well as white-bearded veterans.
The Southeast Army is headed by Yan Dashao, and he naturally understands the regulations, and the system of "if you can't be promoted, you will retire" is practiced in the army.
The soldiers are all young people, while officers and non-commissioned officers have age restrictions linked to military ranks, such as:
Positions held at the platoon level: 30 years old;
Holding a company-level position: 35 years old;
Positions held at the battalion level: forty years old;
Positions at the regimental level: forty-five years old;
Divisional positions: 50 years old;
Hold a military-level position: fifty-five years old;
Positions above the military rank: 60 years old and above;
Marshals never retire, while general-rank officers are supported by the state for life and are paid well.
For example, if a descendant is over the age of thirty and still has bones, then he has to retire, and the same is true for other positions.
After all, there are few officer positions, and there are still non-commissioned officers, but there are also age restrictions.
The army is younger, young is good, far superior to the officers and soldiers of the Kingdom of Kandy.
It's easy to say that only young people are soldiers, but it's hard to do!
You have to settle the forces of the military, he did a good job, and finally became an officer (from the bloody battle, bought with a lot of money, and escorted by the family forces), or rely on this rice to support the family, without this rice, the family starves to death, you get rid of his military position, cut off his rice road, can he not rebel?
Especially the Southeast Army, with good treatment, good food and drink, no one wants to retire!
Therefore, you must be able to firmly control the army, and be able to properly handle the issue of military retirement, you must know that they used to take arms, and if they are not satisfied now, they can always pick up arms against you, and their comrades on duty may use arms to rebel against you with arms and so on.
Besides, do you have so many young men in your family who join the military every year?
"The rejuvenation of the army" is not that many monarchs do not want to, but they cannot do it.
The Chinese did it, the soldiers were generally young, and the age of the officers rose in proportion to the rank, which seemed very pleasing to the eye.
They have a good complexion, and Rajsingh II has insight, and you can tell at a glance that they grew up eating meat!
There is also the full firearms of the Chinese army, and the cannons and muskets are displayed all over the mountains, and Rajesinghe II is the family knows that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are all money.
The muskets were fierce, and with the efforts of Rajsingh II, it was only a musket team of 800 people.
With muskets and artillery, Rajsingh II's proud elephant army was afraid that it would end up in front of the bullets.
Wrong!
He carefully saw the clothing of the Chinese officers and soldiers, who were wearing metal vests, armor, and metal helmets.
In the Kingdom of Kandy, this is the equipment only owned by the Praetorian Guards and elite troops, and the Chinese officers and soldiers have worn it.
In ancient times, the productive forces were backward, and metals were valuable goods.
With this protection, when you start a battle, you have a good chance of surviving, and the probability of victory is high.
Rajsingh II and Yan Changwu then propped up a long golden tent on the left side of the road, and the two of them sat in it.
Everyone knows that Rajsingh II did not dare to enter the city yet.
Yan Changwu lightly introduced his experience of capturing Colombo City, and laughed: "I didn't expect Hongmaofan to be so useless, labor and management captured Colombo in seven days, and I can't wait for the king to arrive, and I will attack the city with you!" ”
His subordinates had a relaxed look, and the Kandy monarchs and ministers all had serious expressions!
They understood: the Chinese are strong!
The previous idea of the weakness of the Chinese has long been gone, and negotiating with the Chinese is not good to seek the skin of the tiger!
