Chapter 188: Spring Training

"I will take it when I see it, and don't put too much pressure on it, so as not to overdo it." Zhou Ding became enlightened.

This time, he also felt very uncomfortable in his heart, although it was to spread the message, but after all, the object of pressure was the Wudang faction, he was the authentic descendant of the Wudang faction, and he naturally had deep feelings for his sect.

Besides, everyone must abandon the original sectarian consciousness and be wholeheartedly loyal to him, Zhou Dingcheng thought that it would be difficult for him to do this, he could not be unfavorable to the situation, but he could not be unfavorable to his own sect, fortunately, there was no conflict between the two, otherwise he really didn't know what to do.

"It's just an appetizer, little bit." Besides, he didn't think so.

Murong Yanran and Zhou Dingcheng were taken aback, this is still an appetizer, what kind of meal do you want, you won't even serve people's nests, right?

"This time, I just want to look at their attitude, not to ask them to take substantive actions, and I have to ask them to set a practical example when needed in the future." Moreover, explained.

Only then did Murong Yanran understand what he meant, those two formations were indeed useless, and they couldn't arrange the formations in the military camp or the yamen, so besides, it was said that it was false, and the Wudang Sect and the Heavenly Master Sect probably realized this, and agreed with a perfunctory disguise.

As for the trade routes guaranteed by the overseas royal organizations, everyone knew that they were unreliable, and the royal organizations could not guarantee the complete smooth passage of sea routes, and the pirate alliance reached an agreement with them, and the two sides promised not to attack each other's fleets and bases again, and the sea lanes were still in the hands of the pirate alliance.

These days, the training in the big school field is in full swing, and I feel that I am really lucky, and Qi Jiguang has not made any major movements there, so he can always help him train.

Moreover, although the cavalry establishment is only 5,000 people, these 5,000 people have auxiliary horses, that is, 10,000 horses, and his two guards plus Ji Chang also have auxiliary horses, and the result is really 12,000 horses, and they use these 12,000 horses to train cavalry.

"Is it really necessary? More cavalry is not necessarily better, in the south of the Yangtze River, especially along the coast, cavalry is not easy to deploy, and it is not of great use. Qi Jiguang gently persuaded him that most of Qi Jiguang's training troops were infantry, and only a small part of the cavalry was used as the equipment of the Chinese military.

"Anyway, there are ready-made horses, so let's train so much, maybe they can really be used in the future." Besides.

Qi Jiguang didn't persuade either, knowing that he had a cavalry tactic of 12,000 people, and always wanted to train suitable soldiers.

The people who had been trained from the Shenji Battalion had already returned, bringing back firearms, artillery, etc., and Qi Jiguang began to take over training them on how to cooperate with the infantry, what kind of formation they formed, and how to concentrate their firepower to destroy the enemy, instead of indiscriminately placing them at no level and without purpose.

The combination of various infantry and cavalry, the coordination of infantry and firearms, how to form the most lethal firepower network with firearms, etc., Qi Jiguang passed on his experience to the sixth soldiers without reservation.

According to Zhang Juzheng's allocation, the official positions of 100 households and 100 households were also temporarily appointed, the commander of the guards of the two prefectures and Ji Chang respectively served as the commander of a guard, and he himself served as the commander of a guard, and the officials of the 1000 households and 100 households were also served by the guards, and it was clearly announced that this was only a temporary appointment, and which students could also be promoted to these positions if they made meritorious contributions in the future.

The commanders of the guards of the two prefectures and some of the military attachés who had been appointed to the rank of 1000 households and 100 households were all hot-eyed, and asked if they could be formally appointed after making meritorious contributions in the future.

Moreover, tell them that if they can make great achievements in the future, there are positions left for them to be promoted, and there is no need to compete for these. These people are at ease.

Now there is still a shortage of guards here, and he is not ready to expand his recruitment, and the personnel recruited and trained in the future will only be used as a supplement, and if there are more, one more guard will be expanded, and the sixth guard in Jinyi will be expanded to 30,000 at most.

There were more than 60,000 people in the limelight at the peak of the Jinyi Guard, but many of them were non-governmental people, not formal Jinyi Guards, and there were many Sent to Lu, and the real Jinyi Guards generally did not exceed 30,000 people.

"After your team is trained, it's no problem to pull it out and fight with the Tatars." Qi Jiguang was very satisfied, mainly because the quality of the soldiers was too good, and he had not selected so many high-quality personnel after more than ten years of training. In addition, there is no restriction on funds, and the salary is high, and it is completely built in accordance with the specifications of the emperor's army, if this does not create a team that can fight with the Tatar iron cavalry, it is too much to say.

"In the autumn, if the emperor does not order to go to Fujian, he will first pull out and fight with the Tatars." Besides, he laughed.

"To fight the Tatars, you still have to rely on Xiongguan and the city, and it is not worth fighting them in the plains." Qi Jiguang said.

Besides, there is no speech, why can't the imperial court rush out of the border and sweep away Mobei like Emperor Yongle?

Of course, this is the policy of the imperial court, and it has little to do with Qi Jiguang and other generals. This kind of thing has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want to worry about it too much.

"You'd better keep these leaders for a long time, and train a new army every year in the future, since you can solve the problem of funding, there should be no problem. There is too much difference between well-trained soldiers and those who are temporarily recruited or forcibly recruited according to their household registration, and only well-trained soldiers can withstand the test of war, and those who are forcibly recruited may escape one-third of them on the march, and at least half of them will die on the battlefield, and it would be good if two or three of the ten people could be left in the end. Qi Jiguang pointed to those sect leaders.

Besides, nodding, of course he won't let go of these sect heads, with the help of Marquis Wuding, there will be no problem in hiring these people for a long time, and these people also like this, after all, they have a good salary.

And these people now know how to train the army, and next time they don't need Qi Jiguang to bring someone over to help.

A group of stragglers and a well-trained army naturally cannot be compared.

Every time he fought with the official army, it was these Duoyan Sanwei who took the lead and broke through the formation of the official army, and then it was Yongle who deceived the elite soldiers from the Liao King (the ancestor of King Ning) and began to charge, which was the only way to win a hundred battles.

Duoyan Sanwei is a Mongolian tribe left over from the Yuan Dynasty, and it is also a master of a hundred battles, and it still has the invincible momentum of Mongolian iron horses. However, the price spent afterwards was too great, and Emperor Yongle ceded more than 1,500 li of land outside Xuanfu to Duoyan Sanwei as compensation, which directly caused the border pass of Xuanfu to shrink into a large area of land.

There was no political risk at the time, but no one could have imagined that it would later lead to the tragedy of the civil fort.

The Mongolian Warat tribe broke through the Xuanfu border pass, set up an ambush in a hurry, surrounded the Ming army of 600,000 elite troops, almost the Ming Dynasty at that time of the national military strength, Wara defeated the Ming army in a battle, almost all annihilated, the famous general British Gongzhang Fu was killed in battle, Yingzong was captured. This directly led to the Ming Dynasty from the heyday of the Renxuan Dynasty into underestimation, almost slipped into the realm of no return, and then thanks to the military department Shangshu Yu Qian ran around and supported Emperor Jingtai to ascend the throne, so that the Yingzong captured by Wara lost the value of strange goods, and the subjects of the whole country saw hope, and finally Wara had to reluctantly withdraw from the Guansai.

In fact, although Warat won a complete victory in this battle, the casualties and losses were also heavy, and he was no longer able to attack on a large scale after that. In the end, Yingzong was returned to the Ming Dynasty and the mutual market was opened.

The leader of Warat finally understood that war was not the royal road, and that mutual market, exchange, and mutual benefit with the Ming Dynasty were the truth of long-term coexistence.

"Xuanfu." And suddenly he cried out.

"Xuanfu?" Qi Jiguang was stunned.

"If the Tatars attack in the autumn, they will definitely try to break through in Xuanfu." Besides.

"Not necessarily. Every time they attacked, they chose multiple border passes to try, and if they could break through that one, they entered in a big way. Qi Jiguang said.

"I didn't know before, but this time it must be Xuanfu. I had a particularly strong feeling. Besides.

Qi Jiguang nodded, and didn't argue with him, but he didn't believe it in his heart.

"I still have to inform the governor of Xuanfu and ask them to prepare for a hard battle." And besides, again.

"Okay, I'll send an official message to the Xuanfu tomorrow and ask them to take more precautions."

Besides, he sighed, knowing that this was useless, the governor of Xuanfu would throw it aside even if he received the official document, and before the Tatars attacked, there would be a fluke mentality in that border pass, hoping that the breakthrough that would be chosen was not himself, but he could only do this.

This brutal invasion of Liaoyang is a confusing tactic, making everyone think that this is a tempter of the Tatar invasion, and will storm Liaoyang in the autumn, and then enter the interior from Shanhaiguan, Shanhaiguan is the closest to the Beijing division, and it is also the most threatening military fortress.

After he returned home in the evening, he gave the emperor a note, asking the emperor to urge the governor of Xuanfu to strengthen war preparations, and if the Tatars did not attack in the autumn, it would be enough, otherwise they would definitely attack Xuanfu in a big way.

After writing the recital, he took it and handed it to Zhou Dingcheng, asking him to enter the palace tomorrow and hand it directly to Zhang Whale and present it to the emperor.

Jinyiwei has this privilege and does not need to submit the fold through the General Administration.

"What do you want from the emperor? Every time Lord Zhang Whale sees me, his face is not very good. Zhou Dingcheng said with a smile.

"It's not about anything. Just to state his point of view about the possible invasion of the Autumn Tatars. Besides.

"Oh." Zhou Dingcheng was relieved. Don't talk about others, even he has been afraid of it recently, and besides, this is the rhythm of tossing the emperor and the court with the Qinwang faction, and the action is a little too big.

"By the way, this is the formation of the Shaolin One Hundred and Eight Stick Monks, which was just handed over over there today." Zhou Dingcheng pointed to a few pieces of paper.

"Can we use this?" Besides, he frowned.

"If you make short-handed contact, it will indeed have a miraculous effect, but you have to arrange someone to practice Shaolin stick art first. To be honest, even the Shaolin Temple does not have this kind of formation now, and it is not enough to make up so many excellent stick monks. But you asked for it, and they sent it. ”。

"Then arrange someone to try, if it can be regarded as a backhand, if it is too difficult, give up." Besides.
