Chapter 48 Training Subjects for the New Army
Zhu Cihong planned to use muskets with bayonets and artillery for the equipment of the new army, these are all precious things, and according to the planned configuration for the new army, it would be good to be able to get 30,000 new troops for 3 million taels of silver.
Zhu Cihong ate a few bites of food, and glanced at the two little girls of orchids and begonias who were waiting on his left and right.
"You two don't have to wait, sit down and eat with me." Zhu Cihong commanded.
I feel that eating alone is really boring, and I don't have much appetite, the two little girls of Lanxiang and Begonia are delicate and lovely, and they are their own personal palace maids, sooner or later they have to be admitted to the room by themselves, if they can sit next to themselves and eat with themselves, they will definitely increase their appetite, as for Zhao Dequan, the dead eunuch, Zhu Cihong selectively forgot.
"Huh?" The two little girls stared at each other with big eyes and small mouths slightly open, looking like they thought they had heard it wrong and didn't hear it clearly, which was cute.
"Sit down and dine with me." Zhu Cihong said it again, deliberately slowing down his tone.
"No, no, no, the slaves don't dare." The two little girls were frightened and looked submissive.
"This is my will! Do you want to resist it? Zhu Cihong had a straight face, so scared that the two little girls were about to cry.
"Oh." The two little girls didn't dare to resist the decree, so they sat down slowly, and ate with Zhu Cihong, their eyes peeked at Zhu Cihong from time to time, and their liver was plopping like a deer crashing inside, seeing Zhu Cihong's normal expression, they dared to pick up the chopsticks and eat almost a grain of rice, and they were cautious, and they didn't dare to pick up the vegetables.
"Be normal, eat as usual, I'm not scary at all, okay!" Zhu Cihong rolled her eyes, and put a clip of vegetables between the two of her and put it in the bowl.
"Eat more and grow up faster." Zhu Cihong pointed out.
The two little girls had red cheeks and watery eyes, and they seemed to be a little scared and shy, but they were very seductive.
Zhao Dequan watched from the sidelines, not without envy, but he was a eunuch, not as good as a woman like Lanxiang Begonia to please the emperor.
The next day, Zhu Cihong came to a school field located on the east side of the palace, which was very spacious and could accommodate 100,000 trainees, which was the place where the founding emperor Taizu watched the troops back then. Ji Feng's 2,000 Shandong troops and more than 1,000 guards of the East Palace Imperial Forest Army who protected Zhu Cihong's southward movement were all deliberately arranged by Zhu Cihong to be stationed here.
"The last general, Ji Feng, see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Ji Feng came to pay homage.
"The last general, Zhang Kuishan, will be the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Zhang Kuishan came to pay homage.
"Excuse me." Zhu Cihong smiled faintly and asked them to get up.
After the two got up, Zhu Cihong raised his hand slightly, and Zhao Dequan behind him hurriedly showed Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan the outline of the various training items of the new army that Zhu Cihong wrote yesterday.
What is it? After Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan passed it on to each other, they both showed doubts, not understanding what these things represented, but since they were given to them by the emperor, they must be unusual.
"This is the training program I have envisioned for the new army that will be formed, and in the future, all my new troops will have to practice according to the above project training syllabus." Zhu Cihong explained with a smile.
"Your Majesty, these training regulations seem to be very different from the traditional army drills, not focusing on the practice of martial arts and tactics, but focusing on some details of sitting, standing, walking and other every move, so that after training, can you really train an elite army." Ji Feng asked.
Zhu Cihong shook his head and said: "You must not underestimate these details, you must understand that all forms of human beings are born from the heart, and the heart is slack, and the form it reveals is naturally scattered. If every move can be planned in place, and everything has a law, then the overall momentum can be affected by the form. In this way, when they are gathered together, the military appearance of the army will inevitably take on a new look, and at that time, it will be able to train an invincible army by training them in tactics and battle formations. Of course, this is only my imagination, whether I can really train an invincible elite army, it will take half a month to see the results. ”
In the face of Ji Feng's questioning, Zhu Cihong was not angry at all, after all, these training items are too different from the perspective of the current army generals, and no one knows the efficacy, of course, except for Zhu Cihong.
Zhu Cihong, who has been trained in this way, knows too well, don't look at these are very simple on the surface, but the role is very large, such as standing motionless, being able to exercise patience and walking in unison, stepping forward, exercising team spirit, running, exercising physical strength, turning left and right, and exercising the consciousness of quickly obeying orders, one by one, none of them is simple, after all, this is a Dacheng training method that has been obtained after hundreds of years of experience from thousands of years in the world.
The soldiers who have been trained in this way, whether it is physical strength, endurance, teamwork, or the consciousness of obeying orders, are extremely powerful, you can imagine the morale and combat effectiveness of such a large army, the two armies are fighting, and the morale alone can lower the opponent by several layers, plus super physical strength and endurance, how can not be defeated in battle.
Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan thought about it carefully, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt that it made sense, and after a while, they showed a hint of abruptness, nodded and said: "What the emperor said is very true, the last general will wait for the teaching, and the last general will immediately arrange for all the soldiers to start training." ”
"No, today you should study these projects first, demonstrate to each other in private, and when you start training the army tomorrow, you must understand it before you can train the soldiers." Zhu Cihong said. After all, it is a new thing, and Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan must understand it before they can start training the army, so they can't be in a hurry.
"The last general obeys!" Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan nodded in agreement.
"Okay, you guys watch first, I'll go back to the palace first." Zhu Cihong stood up and said.
"Congratulations to the emperor."
Originally, Zhu Cihong could demonstrate to Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan one by one, but he was the emperor, so it would be too damaging to his image, and he still had a lot of chapters to review, so there was not much time to waste, anyway, it was not a difficult thing, and he would be able to read it twice.
Zhu Cihong's training project for Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan's Ying Longjun is only a part of those that do not need auxiliary equipment, and it is also the most basic part, and the other needs to wait for more than ten days before the auxiliary equipment can be trained.
The next morning, Zhu Cihong came to this school again.
"The last general will see the emperor, my emperor"
"Okay, no need to salute, gather all the soldiers at once, and before training, I want to say a few words." Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan were just about to pay homage, but Zhu Cihong waved his hand and said solemnly.
"The last general obeys!"
In a moment, Ji Feng and Zhang Kuishan gathered everyone, a total of three thousand and eighty-eight people, all of whom were all there, and no one dragged them out.
Zhu Cihong nodded with satisfaction and stepped forward to speak.
