Chapter 167: Angel Officer Zheng Chongjian Second Watch
Lin Yi's team arrived at the foot of the Great Wall at Xifengkou Pass, and the deputy generals Zu Keyong and Wang Jianer had been lined up with men and horses for a long time.
Seeing Lin Yi's horse head, the second general hurriedly rode over to meet him, and when he got closer, he dismounted and saluted Lin Yi. Now Zu Keyong's injuries have long since healed.
Lin Yi hugged his fist at the two of them, which was regarded as a return salute, and then they smiled and greeted, Lin Yi walked in front, and they followed behind, hugging each other.
The soldiers and generals guarding the pass here all looked at Lin Yi with envy, Lin Yi won a big battle, and some tribes in Mongolia gave gifts to Lin Yi and took the initiative to make friends with the Ming Dynasty, and now these generals guarding the pass city have also heard about it.
A few of the generals were still talking in whispers.
"Lord Lin's two-month trip to Mongolia was too beautiful. After such a big victory, the team of 800 warriors does not seem to have decreased, you see so many people when you left, and there are still so many people? ”
"It's different, don't you see, there are a lot of Mongolian girls in it, and there are hundreds of Mongolian horses, it is said that these are the chiefs of the Mongolian tribes who are filial to Lord Lin, not for the Ming court."
"How else to say it, the horses are full of good things, you see the back of the more than 20 cars, the wheels are rolling, the cattle are pulling, it looks like it is a heavy load, don't ask if there must be gold and silver treasures in it, those Mongolian princes and officials are rich, some send them silver, and some send gold, this time Lord Lin is going to make a fortune."
"What is making a fortune, Lord Lin pulled 20,000 taels of silver and a few gold bars when he left, which are all his own savings, as well as Miss Zhezhe's, I heard that in order to win over these tribes to fight against the Qing Dynasty and form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty, these silver and gold bars are all set out, and the adults spend money like dirt, never caring about personal gains and losses. However, the battle of the lord is fame and fortune, and the credit is too great, and the chief soldier is full of joy when he comes back, and the court knows that he will have to add officials and knights for the lord in the future. ”
"That's absolute, it's a pity, we didn't catch up with this battle, otherwise maybe we would have made a merit and been rewarded."
"The adults are back, there will be opportunities in the future, as long as we follow the adults to do a good job, the adults will definitely not treat us badly. Let's go, let's stop talking. ”……
The welcoming team and Lin Yi's 800 soldiers and soldiers escorted the carts and cars back to Guancheng.
When they arrived at the gate, everyone began to unload the truck, and the things on horseback and the things on the car were unloaded and registered by a special person. Wang Jian explained to them whether it was war horses, gold and silver, grain and grass, guns and ammunition, and so on. Public is public and private is private, public and private are clearly distinguished, and they are registered and stored separately.
Not to mention the rest, Lin Yi now has 5,000 taels of silver, 500 taels of gold plus a few gold bars in his private small vault, as well as some pearl agate, jade jewelry, and silk satin, all of which are Lin Yi's personal, of course, there are also philosophers, and they are not in the slightest.
On the same day, Lin Yi announced the establishment of the women's battalion, counting the two officers of Liang Xiaoying and Zhezhe, a total of 56 people, and divided the camp area of the women's battalion, and male soldiers were not allowed to enter without permission. Xiao Ying and Zhezhe are the leaders of their women's battalion, announcing the discipline of the barracks, just like the male soldiers, these are on the way, Xiaoying and Zhezhe have instilled these 50 Zalut beauties through four maidservants, and now they are re-emphasized and officially effective.
Then Lin Yi announced that he would let Xiaoying and Zhezhe start training them the next day. The specific division of labor is that Zhezhe and the four Weng Niu special maids are responsible for training them to ride horses and bow and arrows, Xiaoying is responsible for training their physical fitness and swordsmanship, and Lin Yi is their chief instructor and consultant.
Lin Yi wants to build them into a special army, usually they are still singers and dancers, and they are used to win by surprise at critical moments.
Zhang Hua was drooling when he watched from the side, and it was no wonder that Zhang Hua was unproductive, these Mongolian girls took off their unique national costumes and changed into the military uniforms of the daimyo, which has a unique characteristic. Zhang Hua is already a good woman, but now it looks endless, I feel that everything I look at is fresh, attractive, and delicious, and finally I don't look down when I catch the sensitive parts of the person, after reading this, look at another.
There are so many beauties, Zhang Hua's eyes look like he can't wait for him to go to the women's camp, he doesn't let him be a general flag, and he is happy to let her be a recruit.
Erhu saw his thoughts, and said in his heart, this kid's woman has committed another crime, if it weren't for following us adults, he doesn't know how many bad things he has done, you see that his eyes are about to go out now, it is better to tease him.
Thinking of this, Erhu said: "Do you kid want to go over there, I have a way."
"What's the solution?" Zhang Hua's eyes immediately widened and said.
"That's to cut off the stuff in your crotch and be a eunuch." Erhu whispered in his ear.
"Why the fuck aren't you a eunuch?" Zhang Hua knew that the second tiger was doing bad to him again, his two little eyes glared, and his knife face tightened to look more stylish, and scolded.
Erhu smiled and spat disdainfully, "If you don't want to, pull it down, you asked me, what are you staring at, really, it's okay!" ”
……
After Lin Yi announced that he was finished, he returned to his barracks. The affairs of these female soldiers were handed over to Xiaoying and Zhezhe.
Xiao Ying has now sorted out the set that Lin Yi trained herself at the beginning, and she has firmly remembered it in her heart.
These days, his two servant girls are very pleasant, and she now recognizes these Mongolian women, and she finds that these women are not only beautiful, but also gentle and careful, not intrigued, what can be done once or done a demonstration can be done very well, and you don't have to worry about it in the future, step by step, it is very worry-free.
That night, Xiaoying and Zhezhe stood in front of the team of female soldiers and spoke a few words, and then asked the four maidservants to take them back to the barracks.
From the second day, Lin Yi began to train his troops.
In this era of war, there are constant wars, and where there are wars, there are casualties, and the reduction of casualties requires the replenishment of new troops. Of course, they have to improve their combat power through training and close the distance between them.
And now there are not 2,000 people in Guancheng, because the imperial court allocated 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the general soldier Liu Zhaoji brought a part of Miyun, and Guancheng gave them another 3,000, adding a total of more than 5,000 people.
Among them, 2,000 people are Lin Yi's original generals, Ning Tieqi, and the Tianxiong Army, including Lin Yi's personal guards. These 2,000 soldiers will have the strongest combat effectiveness and the best military discipline. However, the newly assigned 3,000 soldiers and generals were uneven, and Lin Yi separated them while training the whole army, focusing on training these 3,000 people. In addition, you have to take care of the women's battalion, and these more than 50 beautiful girls are also recruits, and they must be trained strictly.
Lin Yi's guard battalion has all become instructors, training all 5,000 male soldiers, and Lin Yi requires all of them, whether they are officers or soldiers, including instructors, to devote themselves to training, and no one is exempt, including himself.
Instructors are required to complete the subjects required for military training. It is not permissible for instructors to only demonstrate their actions and only let the soldiers train, so as to prevent the formation of lazy old soldiers.
Lin Yi gets up early every day to train his own projects, some of the special warrior boxing skills and various physical training before the crossing, and then the single knife, the cross-horse wheel broadsword, the white dragon horse, the green dragon glaive knife, dance, no less than Guan Yu in the world Lu Bu reborn, and then practice archery, including subordinate archery and horse archery, these items, Lin Yi gets up early every day and practices according to the standard, it takes about an hour, that is, about two hours.
After practicing these, after breakfast, he began to go to the training ground, instructing and supervising the practice of other soldiers, from recruits to veterans, from men's battalion to women's battalion.
Moreover, in view of the different levels of these soldiers, Lin Yi has formulated a complete set of training plans, including new recruits (this refers to the newly transferred 3,000 soldiers, not new recruits), including women's battalions, focusing on military discipline, physical fitness, individual combat and other aspects of training.
For those 2000 veterans who have been in battle formations for a long time, it is mainly to improve their cooperative combat ability, such as the use of firearms, bows and arrows, charging, retreating, which can be summarized as various common formations such as attack, kill, and defense.
Now Lin Yi commands the training, he has a very set of experience, he brought from the special soldiers and insights, combined with the skills given to him by Lu Xiangsheng, from the several books given to him by Lu Xiangsheng, he absorbed a lot of useful things, after processing and transformation, to extract the essence from the rough, to remove the false and retain the true, to form a set of his own system, this system is closer to the actual combat.
Lin Yi stayed longer in the new barracks and women's battalions, so no one dared to be sloppy. Although these recruits were drawn from all over the country, they were now intimidated by Lin Yi's prestige.
When Lin Yi first arrived at the women's camp, these Mongolian beauties were giggling and flattering, but after two days passed, Lin Yi completely changed when he appeared in front of them again. Including the four servant maids of Onniut, one by one became docile lambs, wilted like frosted eggplants.
Lin Yi was satisfied that Xiao Ying had adapted to the role of an instructor so quickly, and what she had taught her in the past two years was now out of the classroom.
But seeing the appearance of these female soldiers one by one, Lin Yi was not satisfied, which was the same as when Xiaoying was a soldier at the beginning.
Lin Yi asked the female soldiers to focus on them and told them that this was just the beginning. The devil trains, they have not yet come into contact, he wants to train them into such an army, under any circumstances, they must not become docile lambs, they must become tigers, they must become hungry wolves, only in this way can they protect themselves, they can kill the enemy.
In this way, a month passed, and the recruits of the women's battalion had passed the unfit period. It's just that these newly transferred 3,000 generals are still uneven.
Lin Yi knew that the reason why the women's battalion made rapid progress was because they were strict with them from the beginning, just like a blank sheet of paper, on which whatever you draw is what it is. Moreover, there are few people in the women's camp, and it is easy to manage with only a few dozen people.
These newly transferred 3,000 generals are different, because most of them have become veteran oilers, it is difficult to change and improve them, it is not achieved overnight, this is the old army of the Ming Dynasty is lazy, of course, it is not comparable with the elite troops of Guanning Iron Cavalry and Tianxiong Army, it is impossible for them to catch up in a short period of time and completely change the situation, only take your time.
On this day, Wang Jianlai reported to Lin Yi, saying that many of the new soldiers and generals were tired of training, and if this continued, I was afraid that there would be deserters, and even cause mutiny, so we had to take a countermeasure.
Saying that, he gave Lin Yi the list of those who were tired of training sorted out by Zhang Hua Erhu and other instructors.
Lin Yi didn't look at it, and paced back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, "Pass on my order, starting from this month, each person will be given an additional 20% of the monthly salary, and the food expenses will be increased by 1,000 taels per month to improve the diet of the soldiers, and I will personally pay for these silver." ”
Wang Jian knew what trick Lin Yi used, because now that the soldiers are in chaos, most of these soldiers are eating food and serving as soldiers, and they will be given additional food and salaries, so that they can eat well and eat well, and if they are a little tired and tired, they will also tie their hearts.
But Wang Jian shook his head and said: "My lord is righteous, but this amount is not small, because now we have more soldiers, according to what the adult said, at least 2,000 taels of silver are needed every month, and the adult's savings may not be able to support it for a few months."
Lin Yi said: "If it can last for a few months, it will be a few months, if it is not as Lin expected, the reward of the imperial court should come down soon, and it will be able to support it for a while, it will not take a year, these soldiers will drive them away, and they will not leave."
Sure enough, after the increase in food and salary, the anger of these new 3,000 soldiers gradually disappeared. Another month has passed, not to mention the mutiny, not even a single deserter has appeared, and these 3,000 new generals have greatly improved military discipline and overall level.
Lin Yi was very satisfied, and felt that the thousands of taels of silver were worth it.
Just then, the angel arrived. This person's name is Zheng Chongjian, the official worships the squire of the military department, holds the holy decree of the imperial court, drives a large car and a small car, and the top is loaded with imperial wine, royal meat and silver. Liu Zhaoji, the chief soldier, came with him, and Lin Yi was overjoyed and hurried down to the city to greet him.
first gave a salute to the angel official, Zheng Chongjian is now a squire of the military department, much older than Liu Zhaoji and Lin Yi's officials.
Lin Yi also has an understanding of Zheng Chongjian, who is also a figure with great ups and downs in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. Once very trusted by Chongzhen, successively served as the governor of Henan, Shaanxi right to participate in politics, right thrifty and capital imperial history, did the governor of Shaanxi trilateral, defeated Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan, and achieved a great victory in Agate Mountain, but that was the peak of his life, and later Yang Sichang committed suicide in fear of crime, and some people impeached him for improper use of troops and was killed by Emperor Chongzhen, and his body was thrown in the city.
Now Zheng Chongjian is in the period of his life, and he is in the ascending stage, and the key is that he has a holy decree in his arms, which is on behalf of the emperor.
Liu Zhaoji and Lin Yi hurriedly arranged the incense case and knelt down to receive the order, which was the will for the two of them.
Zheng Chongjian read the will aloud, and Lin Yi was unexpectedly surprised after listening to it, and then he knew that the DPRK and China had changed......
