After listening to the explanation, Liang Zheng didn't say a word for a long time, and the silence suddenly seemed like substance, constantly suppressing the air in the room.

Su Qinghe hurriedly comforted: "The young master has finally become an official, and the master's spirit in the sky can also smile." Congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the young master! ”

Liang Zheng: "......"

Su Qinghe: "......"

Liang Zheng: "......"

“…… The young master should also be happy, this is a real official body. Su Qinghe tried to comfort his young master in a different way, but he was telling the truth.

No matter how unbearable the "regimental training chief soldier" is, they are all serious officials recognized by the imperial court, that is to say, from now on, Liang Zheng has realized the transformation from a civilian to an official.

In ancient times, for the vast majority of people, this could already be regarded as a step to the sky. How many people have been cold for ten years, just for such a piece of paper, such an identity.

Liang Zheng was silent for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh.

"Alright, I got it. Later, I will visit Master Wu and thank him for his kindness. ”

"Oh, yes." As if he suddenly remembered something, Su Qinghe suddenly said, "The imperial court also gave us a formal establishment, which can be expanded by 500 people." ”

“…… Also expanded? Liang Zheng's eyes widened.

"Don't we still have two boxes of Western fire in our warehouse...... Oh, it's a front-loading smoothbore flintlock pistol," Su Qinghe looked at the other party's face cautiously, "It's just right to recruit Xiangyong into the camp......"

"What about military pay? Who pays for the military salary? ”

Liang Zheng was about to say another with a dark face, when suddenly a family came to report at the door: "Master Wu is here." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Dalie's figure turned out from behind the screen at the door, but he was silently a little depressed, and he didn't even see Liang Zheng bowing to him, he walked to the right seat and sat down, without speaking, sipping tea with his head down, I don't know what he was thinking, and after a while, seeing Liang Zheng still standing with his hands down, he asked:

"Sit down, the official certificate has been received?"

"Roger." Liang Zheng just sat down with his hands in his hands, and hurriedly got up again and replied.

"Alas, Uncle Shi originally wanted to recommend you to seek a career beside Lord Yang of the Ministry of War, but I didn't expect his mentor to ......" Wu Dalie let out a long sigh, "But now that I think about it, this is not a good thing." ”

"Uncle Shi?"

"Do you know why?"

"My nephew listens to my uncle's teachings." Liang Zheng bowed slightly, but his heart was full of thoughts.

Lord Yang, the secretary of the military department......

Could it be Yang Sichang?

The first important minister at the end of the Ming Dynasty!

Only then did he know that the "chief soldier" who could not be on the stage turned out to be personally instructed by Yang Sichang, and he couldn't help but be shocked and hateful: he was shocked that he was a nobody, and he actually entered the eyes of the emperor and gave him an official position; What I hate is that it's not good to bestow it, but I only gave a nameless and worthless title, isn't this a clear humble person?

Merely......

"Although the regimental training general soldier is supernumerary, it is really lacking." Wu Dalie said, "Although you have a meritorious reputation, but you are only a showman, your mentor is a close minister, and above the court, how many pairs of eyes are watching, even if he intends to promote you, he also wants you to have some outstanding achievements, and you can block the eloquence of the people, this is one of them." ”

Liang Zheng: "......"

"Two." Wu Dalie said, "Now the court is worried about internal and external troubles, but the Manchu Dynasty has more civil and military bragging, and less down-to-earth...... The teacher is the important weapon of the country, and he needs to be cautious in employing people. I think his old man's move is nothing more than the intention of cultivating and inspecting talents. That's why I gave you a setup, hoping that you can train this regiment well, make new contributions in the matter of suppressing bandits, and prove that you have real talent and real learning, so that you can take on important tasks. ”

"Yes."

"As for these three...... Wu Dalie glanced at Liang Zheng and said earnestly, "It's not that Uncle Shi said you, you acted too absurdly in the past, you know what reputation you have in the county, I guess the teacher is there...... Ahem, I heard some wind too. If this group practice can really do something, reject the bandits on the outside, deter the small on the inside, and protect the water and soil of my Yongning side, I am afraid that everyone will change their opinion of you, and then the people will sing it slowly...... Got it? ”

“……………… The nephew understood. Liang Zheng bowed again.

He really understands now......

Wu Dalie said a lot, and everything else was indispensable, but this last point alone was on his heart.

Since he came to the Ming Dynasty, he has always wanted to live a good life here.

But the title of "Yongning's No. 1 Evil Youth" is like a tall hat that can't be taken off, always on his head.

I don't know how many incidents have arisen for this: opening my own porridge factory and helping the victims...... Pile by pile, all of them are to take away this title.

Now that this group training is done well, if you can really change everyone's opinion of yourself, it will really be a benefit that you can't buy with any amount of money.

Liang Zheng, who sent Wu Dalie away and returned to the flower hall, had already made up his mind, and beckoned Su Qinghe: "Our Liang's land rent ......"

"Young master, rest assured, it's enough to support the expansion of group training." Su Qinghe immediately assured loudly in understanding.

"Yes." Liang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

has more people in his hands, and if the red lady comes to find trouble, she has to weigh it.

"You're in charge of recruiting troops." After thinking about it for a while, Liang Zheng instructed Su Qinghe, "I only have two requirements: first, don't want the homeless, I just want Yongning people." ”

This is actually very easy to understand, the displaced people come from all directions, although now these people outside Yongning City are very easy to recruit, but they join the army to survive, once there is a dangerous situation, they will collapse immediately. The army, which was all formed by Yongning people, was different, everyone was very united, and behind them was their own home, so of course they worked hard to defend it.

If the vast majority of an army is united by people who have been raised by one side of the water and soil, they will have similar habits, common languages, and easy mental strength.

"Second, the people in the city don't want it, just the villagers." Liang Zheng said again.

This point is actually very easy to understand, the city is the world of flowers, and the people in the city have seen more, and there are more flowers and intestines; But the villagers are different, the villagers are simple and easy to lead.

Liang Zheng's tactics were based on the line infantry, which required the soldiers to absolutely obey the order and not have individual thoughts, otherwise one person would be confused, and the entire line would be shaken.

The Liang Mansion will be loyal to him, and he is sure of this, but the new recruits may not be able to do it. Therefore, as long as he is a villager, the more soil he has, the better, because such a soldier is honest, can endure hardships, and is easy to manage.

"If I do this 'two wants and two don'ts', if it is done well, it will be a great achievement." Liang Zheng said leisurely, "Since you are holding this group exercise, you have to show something." That's how I am, either I don't do it, or I have to do it to do my best. Nowadays, there are many displaced people, it is easy to recruit soldiers, a big banner is erected, a rice ball is shed, and there are tens of thousands of horses casually, but it is difficult to want elite soldiers. You are also from Guan Ning, an old man who has been used by the master, and you should understand the truth in this - go. ”

Su Qinghe agreed. Liang Zheng thought about it for a while, and beckoned to a small servant:

"Prepare a sedan chair." He said, "I'm going to the county office." ”

That's what he just decided.

He not only had to do a good job in regimental training, but also to build a real Ming Iron Army - a purely modern army.

So in addition to people, guns, and military uniforms, he also needs a training ground.

It's just that he never thought that as soon as he left the house, he would ......
