"Lord Shizi, is the Pingyu Army really training day and night?"

Even though he had already witnessed the training of the Pingyu Army, Zu Zepu still couldn't help but ask again.

"Naturally, one exercise a day, six days of practice and one day of rest, sometimes plus night exercises."

"at night!"

Zu Zepu was even more surprised and asked,

"Aren't you afraid of the soldiers making trouble? How can the soldiers stand such training? ”

"If you can't stand it, you have to bear it, sweat a lot in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime, besides, the day and night drills are for their good, the soldiers gather in the camp as soldiers, and the energy is strong and easy to cause trouble, and the day and night drills are extremely tiring, so you don't have to cause trouble."

Of course, in Zu Zepu's face, Zhu Guoqiang did not hide anything.

Moreover, the very purpose of military training is to smooth out the will of individuals and turn them into a whole through military law, and constant training, monotonous and repetitive training, is the only option to turn people into machines, and in the barracks there is only "yes"! And the unquestioning of the commander's orders is strengthened through continuous training, if they do an exercise every three days, or even every five days and ten days, they are accustomed to being slow, and they will also question and question the commander's orders! Once this happens, the army will have no combat effectiveness at all, and the order will be forbidden! The army wants to maintain combat effectiveness, this is the most basic thing, this can't be done, how can it win the war? In peacetime, military law is always restrained, so that they take obedience as their instinct, and naturally there will be the slightest doubt! Now they hear the wake-up call in the middle of the night, and all they think about in their minds is to quickly get in place in order to avoid military punishment, and to form a habit in peacetime, so that they will take the lead when they arrive on the battlefield! ”

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is reflexive obedience, and the fatigue brought by training will make people too lazy to think, just numb repetition, and finally obedience becomes instinct.

Zu Zepu couldn't help but hug his fists.

"The prince is really born to be a talent!"

Whether it is day and night drills, or this set of training, it is beyond his imagination.

In the face of his compliment, Zhu Guoqiang smiled.

"Without him, there is just enough food!"

What is the core of this training method in later generations?

Eat well and dress well!

If they had drunk the blood of the soldiers and not given sufficient food, the officers and soldiers would have made trouble a long time ago!

……

A casual sentence made Zu Zepu mute, the military salary of the Liaodong Army is sufficient, but the same deduction is also powerful, the soldiers can get half of the salary, they have already been on the official benevolence, as for the military salary deducted, where did the deduction go? Part of it went into the pockets of the generals, and some of them were used by them to support the family, in fact, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army relied on the family, and the family was also the biggest reliance of the Ming generals, the so-called "generals" relied on the hereditary formation of the military family, and the power of the family depended on what? It relies on military merit and family members.

Now in Liaodong, who is the first general?

A few decades ago, it was the Li family, and now it is none other than Zu Dashou's ancestral family!

Zu Dashou, the clan party is very strong...... This is an evaluation from the official Manchu Qing Dynasty. What is this clan of his? It's the ancestral general!

How many will there be in the ancestral family?

This is not important, the important thing is that if Zhu Guoqiang wants to stabilize Liaodong, the military meritorious families in Liaodong, including the ancestral family, must be encircled, at least for now.

Because of the special military town status in Liaodong, there are many families like the ancestral family, such as the Tieling Li family, which is Li Chengliang's family, Liaoyang Cui's family, Wang's family, Jinzhou Wang's Cai's family, etc., and a Tong family, one of the later Han Eight Banner banners is the Liaoyang Dashi Tong clan. In the Ming Dynasty, the military and political power in Liaodong was in fact in the hands of these powerful clans, and both losses and glory were lost.

These big families all seem to have great military achievements, and they are all the most powerful families in Liaodong, and their children and even family members control important military and political positions in various places.

Why was Zu Dashou forced to surrender after the Great Battle of Songmian after the surrender of Dalinghe, Huang Taiji still treated him with courtesy, to put it bluntly, it was because the ancestral family was a member of the Liaodong Military Gate, and the reality of mutual marriage and mutual dependence between the Liaodong Military Gate was something he had to consider.

is also what Zhu Guoqiang needs to consider now, unless he wants to give the Liaodong Military Gate to Huang Taiji or Dolgon. After all, the situation of the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years is supported by these generals, and most of the generals are loyal, and in the case of good control, they can defend the border for the country.

As for the sins of tomorrow...... Just the sin of tomorrow!

And Zu Dashou is a person...... It's complicated!

In fact, Zhu Guoqiang has always had the idea of encircling the ancestral family, otherwise he would not have appointed Zu Kefa as the commander-in-chief of the first army, and now that the second son of Zu Zepu's ancestral family has come over in person, it is natural to encircle them well, let them guard Jinzhou, and become horns with Dalian.

"Actually, my father let me go down to Dalian, first, I want to contact the prince of the world, be horns for each other, and contain each other, so as not to specialize in one place ......"

In this regard, Zhu Guoqiang naturally laughed and said.

"As it should be, as it should be."

"What's more, my father heard that the armaments under the command of the prince are extremely sophisticated, especially the Ming iron armor, there are not many good craftsmen in Jinzhou City, so I hope to buy thousands of Ming iron armor and corresponding weapons, and I hope that the prince will be favorable!"

What is the door?

Hereditary military position?

That's just a stepping stone, and if you want to become a powerful clan, you rely on military merit! What does military merit depend on? Relying on the family, if you want the family to fight and win the war, in addition to sufficient food, you must also have enough sophisticated armor and weapons.

Although I don't know much about the Pingyu Army, through Zu Kefa's letter and the hundred sets of Ming iron armor he sent, the entire Jinzhou is very hot about the Ming iron armor that "can't enter", but the quality of the armor made by itself is not as good as others, and the price is also very high. So Zu Dashou naturally thought about it here, if you want it, you must not open your mouth to ask for it, but you can buy it!

So this led to Zu Zepu's trip to Dalian, because his eldest brother was a hostage on Huangtaiji's side, so now he can be said to be the second leader of the ancestral family, and the weight is naturally enough, and many things can also be in charge.

"Oh, Ming Tiejia, ......"

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Guoqiang laughed.

"Last time, I asked people to send 100 sets to Zuo Dudu, this time since Zuo Du Governor needs it, I will send another 1,000 sets, everyone is loyal to the country, how to divide each other, by the way, do you need Hongyi cannons? I can also cast it here, and I will give you a few doors this time. ”

Yes!

Hearing this, Zu Zepu hurriedly said gratefully.

"The world, the prince of the world treats me so kindly, I wait, I ......"

Just when he wanted to say how to repay, he realized that he couldn't say such a thing, after all, everyone was a minister of the same dynasty, and this person's identity was extremely special.

Just when he was in a dilemma, he only heard the prince ask.

"By the way, I once heard Zu Kefa mention that the ninth miss of the ancestral family can be called a national color, and she has not yet been allowed to marry others, right?"

In fact, early in the morning, Zhu Guoqiang was already thinking about the yellow flower daughter of his ancestral family...... It's not lustful, after all, there are so many women around, and it's not bad for that one.

Besides, we are a dignified prince who is a decent gentleman, not a woman.

But in order to win over the ancestral family, so that the entire Liaodong Jiangmen gave his life to himself, sacrificed his hue, and married someone else's daughter.

This is more than 100,000 or 200,000 elites!

If it is rectified, it will be equivalent to getting the most elite military force of the Ming Dynasty!

It is the hundreds of thousands of Liaodong elites in history that let Chongzhen be buried in the Songjin War this year, and the only remaining tens of thousands of Guan Ning troops can still fight with hundreds of thousands of peasant troops, and Li Zicheng fled all the way back. In fact, if Chongzhen could have negotiated peace with the Manchus "dictatoriously" by the Son of Heaven, he would have fought for a few years and transferred the Liaodong Army south to Pingkou, instead of burying it in Songjin.

How could the Ming Dynasty lose the country?

All right!

The things that Chongzhen buried are now accepted by himself, first the Liaodong Army, and then the world in the future!

Besides, the daughter of the Nazu family is the second concubine, and there is also an advantage, even if someone in the ancestral family wants to be a traitor in the future, Dolgon's side may also guard against them, which is ...... What a lot!

Belch!

The words of the prince Zu Zepu was dumbfounded, he looked at the prince in front of him, stunned and stunned.

What does that mean?

First, they sent armor, and then knives and guns.

Why did you ask about your ninth sister?

Is it possible to protect the media for the ninth sister?

Who can you marry?

Don't...... Suddenly, Zu Zepu's eyes fell on the prince of the world, this master should not want to marry, no, he wants to accept the ninth sister as a concubine!

Didn't he marry a relative!

Uh, and the second concubine.

"Yes, yes...... The ninth sister, thirteen years old this year, is still not yet matched ......"

At this moment, Zu Zepu's heart swelled with countless thoughts, what he was thinking about was not the ninth sister or a girl who was a general, not a lady who knew how to be a scholar, after all, she was going to be a general's wife in the future, and her husband was out on the expedition, maybe she would have to rely on her to defend the city.

How can such a girl marry a clan relative?

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has its own ancestral system, and the clan does not choose the daughter of a high-ranking official as a concubine, although the clan chooses relatives and good families are all military households, but they all stop at thousands of households.

The ancestral family, but the left governor of the Ming Dynasty.

Besides, it is taboo for the clan to lead the troops, and now His Majesty is still a little forced to use this master, if in the future, when the captives are pacified, if His Majesty attacks him......

But after thinking about it, Zu Zepu thought of the sentence in Zu Kefa's letter: "The prince is really the master of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

The Lord of ZTE!

But he's just a prince!

The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty...... Jingnan is also an ancestral system!

The soldiers of Pingju are so strong and strong, how can they be captured?

If the ninth sister follows him, she is now the second concubine, and she will be a concubine in the future...... When the ancestral family is in trouble, the saddle will follow the prince before and after the horse, just like the British prince and the ancestor, then the ancestral family is not a mere general!

In that case, the ancestral family will make a lot of money!

Needless to say, Shenli means that everyone is a smart person, of course they all know, so they smiled and diverted the topic.
