Human beings are the most susceptible animals to be motivated and infected, even if they are pure-hearted and have few desires, in fact, they are also infected by the Taoist emotion of non-action and pure cultivation.

As the emperor, Zhao Zhen didn't say a word even if he didn't say a word, as long as he stood there, he would be as dazzling as the sun, as loud as a trumpet, and like a war drum inspiring everyone.

Because the emperor himself is a stimulant, he can make his soldiers not afraid of death, the battle of Tanyuan is the best example, as soon as Zhao Heng as the emperor went to the battlefield, the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty was like a stimulant and launched a crazy attack on the Liao, and the army of the king of Qin did not dare to slack off, and rushed to the battlefield non-stop, and the snowball rolled bigger and bigger so that the Liao people could not withstand the pressure and retreated.

Zhao Zhen is the same way, his words stimulated the hearts of every soldier of the forbidden army, Zhao Zhen has never stopped studying politics with the army, the literati feel that preaching and teaching these soldiers is like playing the piano to the cow, but Zhao Zhen strictly ordered them to do this!

The Confucian idea of loyalty to the monarch is a good thing, and it can maintain the loyalty of the troops to the greatest extent.

The result of the military heart is that the selection of Di Qing and others has become quite convenient, and there are quite a lot of talents to choose from, but Di Qing has only one standard, and those who obey the command and obey the order are preferred.

Even if your riding skills are good, no matter how skilled the bow horse is, if you can't obey the command and turn you away like Di Qing, this is the most basic condition, and passing this level is to test the physical fitness of the sergeant.

Cao Wei was extremely distressed, these are the top people in the army, it is a pity to be eliminated like this, and then pulled Di Qing to whisper for a while, but Di Qing did not buy his account, but said firmly: "Even if the official family comes in, he must pass the assessment first, otherwise I will never let him gain a foothold in the back!" ”

Cao Wei is also a privy envoy in charge of military and political power, so he felt disgraced when he was refuted by a young junior, so he pulled Di Qing and walked towards Zhao Zhen: "Official, the minister thinks that General Di's selection method is biased, and the little colonel just now is obviously the one who presses the crowd, why did he exclude him?" Please judge the official family! ”

Now that the lawsuit has reached the front of the emperor, Zhao Zhen can't be with the mud, and a group of unsuccessful generals and martial artists looked at this side in a daze.

Zhao Zhen put down the spear in his hand and said: "Di Qing is responsible for selecting the candidates for the back army, naturally he is in charge, not to mention that I believe that he must have his reasons for doing this, since the two of you are arguing in front of the emperor, then you will each say the reason, which is higher and which is lower has its own justice." ”

Of course, it was Cao Wei, who was an elderly official with a high rank, who spoke first: "This time, the selection of elite soldiers and strong generals to form a back is naturally preferred, and General Di will actually eliminate those people, and the minister is very unreasonable!" ”

Di Qing stepped forward and said: "The reason is very simple, the back army that the official family wants is a mighty cavalry army, not a puppet who calls the formation, obeys the military order, and the order is the same as the one can be competent, I am just doing this to save their lives and other robes, when thousands or even tens of thousands of cavalry charge, once someone makes a mistake, it will cause immeasurable consequences, this is not the last general alarmist!" ”

His reason made Zhao Zhen very satisfied, and Cao Wei also knew the power of it, so he argued a little unconvinced: "Then you can also slowly train and smooth out their edges and corners, these elite soldiers will be brushed into a pity tight!" ”

Di Qing nodded slightly but sighed: "The privy envoy is right, it is indeed a pity to brush them down, but I don't know how much time it will take to smooth out their edges and corners, and the official family also said that it is urgent for the Great Song Dynasty to establish a back army now, and what is lacking is time, so I can only wronged them first......"

"Not necessarily!" Zhao Zhen waved his hand to interrupt Di Qing's words, and suddenly gave Cao Wei hope.

"I don't know what the official family has?"

Zhao Zhen looked at Cao Wei's longing eyes and smiled slightly: "I have an idea, how about arranging these skilled generals and martial arts together, and don't want them to participate in cavalry battles, but let them serve as stepping whites?" ”

Di Qing and Cao Wei's eyes lit up and said in unison: "Does the official mean that they should form a white army?!" ”

Zhao Zhen glanced at the generals with longing in their eyes and said: "Well, that's what I mean, stepping on the white army is the eyes and ears of the army, the scout of the general, and they can even be related to the victory or defeat of a war, which is particularly important." ”

Di Qing and Cao Wei were convinced, and the official family considered the problem too thoughtfully: "The official family is Shengming! ”

In fact, Zhao Zhen also had a whim, in ancient wars, the scout troops were not very important, as long as they could listen to the enemy's situation, so most of the scouts were also called Tanma.

Zhao Zhen knew the sharpness of the scouts, they could not only search and explore the way, prevent the enemy from setting up ambushes, but also find out the enemy's situation, and even carry out military raids to capture the enemy's baggage and other important tasks, it can be said that with a white army in their hands, they will occupy a favorable situation, and the balance of victory will be tilted in favor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Strong combat effectiveness also requires them to be the elite of the elite, not only to have well-developed limbs but also a smart head, otherwise not having the ability to adapt will only make them fall into a Jedi.

And it just so happened that these martial arts generals and the martial arts of the Military Academy were the most suitable, Zhao Zhen beckoned to them and said, "Who is willing to be my Li Si'an?" ”

As soon as Li Si'an was mentioned, these people who were influenced by the Art of War and Military Book immediately understood what Zhao Zhen meant.

Li Si'an of the fifth generation of Liang is good at using flying spears, like an eagle flying in the wind when fighting, he can capture the enemy among 10,000 people, enter and exit freely, such as entering a no-man's land, because of his own bravery, dare to boast, and is very deterrent in the enemy. Liang Taizu Zhu Wen used his strengths and asked him to attack and capture. Because Li Si'an was brave and strategic, he was later appointed as a white general.

"The last general is willing!"

Zhao Zhen said with satisfaction: "Those who fall off the list are strong in martial arts, and those who are skilled in archers and horses can enter the White Army to serve, but their danger is better than that of the Back Army, once they join the army, they cannot repent!" ”

Under the leadership of the disciples of Jiangmen, the losers all drank: "Defend the family and defend the country to the death!" ”

The soldiers of this era are more simple, and almost all of the army mutinies and rebellions that Zhao Zhen knows are caused by not being able to survive, so what does a person who can't even eat enough to worry about?

The treatment of the army in the Great Song Dynasty has improved a lot, and after Zhao Zhen severely suppressed the illegal behavior of eating empty salaries, the treatment of the army has been improved to a higher level, but the annual military salary expenditure of the imperial court has been reduced a lot, thanks to the placement of those van troops.

Even if there is another disaster, the imperial court does not need to treat the victims as an army, and Lingnan and Yunnan are good ways to resettle the victims and assimilate the local natives...... After the imperial court got rid of the big burden of the Xiang army, which had no combat effectiveness and was prone to corruption, it naturally reduced its military spending.

And now the treatment of the Beiwei Army and the White Army is much better, and Zhao Zhen even allowed them not to hand over the enemy's property during the war, which is the most rare reward! It can also inspire them to be brave and good at fighting, after all, people cannot live by spirit alone......
