Section 324 Recruitment of Zhejiang soldiers
The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty
For a whole day, Qin Haoming stayed in the barracks and didn't go anywhere, and the shouts in the school field shook the sky.
Taking advantage of his opportunity, today the escort team will elect two deputy Qianhu as the deputy of Qianhu with the personal guard Zhao Shun as the deputy of Qianhu.
Speaking of which, his personal guards are like a grassroots officer corps, which is constantly transferred by him to be used as a hundred households, thousands of households, etc., and is suspected of nepotism.
But there is no way to do it, the guards follow him every day, not only are they strong and loyal, but they can best understand his intentions under the influence of their ears and eyes every day.
What's more, his power is now a little far and scattered, and he must be controlled by the most loyal people.
Within the scope of the school field, the eight trial households selected ten people from their own team to assist them in reaching the top of the sub-thousand households.
There are no rules for fighting, there is no fixed opponent, there is only one goal, and the last two groups of people standing are the winners.
Wearing twenty pounds of armor, holding a spear with the head removed and stained with white ash in his hand, standing in the middle of the field, the other seven groups were opponents.
"The rule is to stay in the field, you can discuss a little bit, what tactics to use?"
After Qin Haoming announced the rules of the fighting competition, he sat on the side and watched the excitement.
At the end of the afternoon, it is the hottest time of the day.
And today's fight, and the future of everyone, will naturally be more intense, the participants in the group as a unit, the eight immortals across the sea to show their powers.
The weather is hot, and the weight is loaded, and the physical exertion is very large, and the winner has been decided in less than a pillar of incense.
To Yu Youhan's surprise, it was not Yang Fengchao and Qin Hao, who he was most optimistic about, who won, but Li Tianmu and Wang Dingfeng.
"They are a little tricky, that Yang Fengchao is too pity, and he was basically beaten out by everyone."
Li Tianmu and Wang Dingfeng shouted wildly to celebrate the victory, but Zhao Shun said with a frown.
Qin Haoming smiled: "Playing tricks on such an occasion, and becoming the final victor, this governor feels that they are more than enough to be a deputy thousand households."
Junko, on the battlefield, soldiers need courage, but leaders need wisdom, you must understand in the future! ”
"No, Qin Du."
"A brave general, of course, can bring victory, but it can also bring huge casualties.
And a wise general, while bringing victory, will minimize casualties.
Originally, you were only responsible for the safety of the Governor, but now that a thousand people are in your hands, that is your robe. You can only think about completing the mission and try to bring the soldiers back in good condition. ”
Qin Haoming earnestly taught: "Moreover, since the rules have been set in advance, they must be obeyed and implemented. ”
"No, Qin Du!"
Zhao Shun nodded vigorously and accepted Qin Haoming's suggestion.
"Yuansheng, you and Shunzi rushed to Zhoushan in the way of training, joined Boyu, and then all actions were under his command."
"Governor Qin, but go and let the brothers see and understand?"
Yu Youhan's eyes immediately lit up, and he was a little excited.
Nesting in a small village every day to lead troops has already made him tired of those who have experienced the baptism of war.
"I don't know, it depends on your luck, can you stop the pirates?"
Dong Changqing's secret guard gradually entered orbit after a period of operation, and the whereabouts of Scar Six this time were one of the results.
"No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and it just happens to be used for military training."
As soon as he heard that it was a pirate fight, Yu Youhan was full of interest, but he could see that Qin Haoming's face was not good, so he hurriedly changed his words.
Although the friendship in the past was there, as the distance between the two sides increased, he still cared about Qin Haoming's attitude.
"There is no trivial matter on the battlefield, and you must not relax at any time, especially the generals who lead your troops, who must be responsible for their subordinates.
After this battle, Yuansheng waited for General Qi in Yiwu and recruited 5,000 Zhejiang soldiers to return to Linpu for training. Junzi and the escort team stayed under Zhang's garrison tent to listen to orders. ”
As the old saying goes, there are talented people in the south, generals in the north, literati in Kanto, and soldiers in Kansai.
Since ancient times, China has said that the southern soldiers are inferior to the northern soldiers, but this situation was broken by Ming Taizu for the first time.
On the one hand, through the continuous competition with Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng and other heroes of the late Yuan uprising, Zhu Yuanzhang accumulated strong military strength in the south.
On the other hand, Mongolia has been in charge of China for nearly 100 years, and its armaments have rapidly corroded and declined, and it was unbearable to fight until Ming Chengzu invaded Mongolia five times.
Despite the heavy blow to the strength of the Mongol Yuan, the Mongol military power was weakened for a time.
However, once they returned to the steppe, the Mongols soon regained their former qualities of fierceness and bravery, and once again showed the characteristics of enduring hardships and standing hard work, and being accustomed to warfare.
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty then set up nine towns along the Great Wall in the north, namely Liaodong, Jizhou, Xuanfu, Datong, Shanxi, Yansui, Shaanxi, Ningxia, and Ganzhou.
The setting of the nine towns made the main military forces of the Ming Dynasty gather in the north, and the border soldiers of the nine towns can be called the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty.
However, with the rise of Jiannu, the country rebelled everywhere, and the Ming Dynasty was repeatedly defeated, and there was a shortage of troops.
Therefore, in the later period, many southern soldiers were dispatched to the border, and it was under this circumstance that the Qijia Army of Zhejiang, the wolf soldiers of Guangxi, and the Baipole soldiers of Sichuan were dispatched by the Ming Dynasty to fight at home and abroad, and they were famous all over the world for a while.
Nowadays, the Guanning Army is a cavalry unit with Guangxi wolf soldiers as the backbone, which is also the reason why Wu Sangui settled in Guangxi in history.
The military quality and combat capability of the Zhejiang soldiers were far higher than those of the original northern garrisons, and this was the main reason for their requisition and dispatch to the north.
Among their military quality and combat capability, they are good at using firearms such as birds, which plays a particularly vital role.
On the other hand, the survival pressure of the people in the narrow area is the internal motivation for the people of Zhejiang to be willing to enlist in the army.
However, Zhejiang is not full of soldiers to fight, nor is it the inhabitants of the places where troops are sent. Without training, he can be directly driven into a soldier who can fight well.
After Qi Jiguang went to Zhejiang, he found that the soldiers of the guard station had average combat ability, while the people in Jinhua, Yiwu, and Taizhou were relatively strong.
So Qi Jiguang went to recruit 3,000 people, and under the guidance and training of Qi Jiguang, he trained them into an elite army and achieved the prestige of the Qi family's army.
Unfortunately, in the bloody battle of the Hunhe River in the first year of the Apocalypse, the tens of thousands of Jiannu troops surrounded 4,000 Sichuan Baipole soldiers and 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers, a total of more than 7,000 people.
It was a service, and Jiannu described it like this: Ming with more than 10,000 people when I was tens of thousands of people, although the strength was overturned, it was the first bloody battle since Liaozuo used soldiers.
Now, Qin Haoming must let the Zhejiang soldiers repeat their glory and show their prestige again.
"Our soldiers in Linpu are not bad, why should Governor Qin go far?"
Zhejiang's brave martial arts are good, but Yu Youhan is also reasonable.
Zhejiang and Linpu were inhabited by the Yue people in ancient times, and the Yue people were a brave and strong nation.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Qi Huangong, the overlord who was at the height of the time, praised and said, "The country of the world is not stronger than the Yue".
By the time of the Warring States Period, the Yue Kingdom directly competed with the Central Plains powers.
Its power was so strong that it was able to make an expedition from the sea to invade a large part of the Shandong Peninsula to which the Qi State belonged, and once moved its capital to Langxie.
"Do you know how many people I'm going to hire?"
Qin Hao understood at a glance, and said with his hands behind his back: "The shape of a soldier is like water, water is controlled by the ground, and the soldier wins because of the place.
captivity into the plains, conducive to chariot warfare; Capture into the near side, which is conducive to cavalry warfare; Captured outside the border, it is conducive to foot combat. Only by stacking the three can we win.
Therefore, horse warfare, foot warfare, and water warfare are indispensable. ”
This is the layout in Qin Haoming's heart, and now he is only confiding in Yu Youhan a little bit.
Xuanda Zhang Songrong and Yin Yuang trained cavalry, Dezhou was Dong Changqing's secret guard, Dengzhou Lu Xinrong and Zhang Yun trained the navy, and the rest were infantry.
And it is divided into various places, and it is difficult to know the specific details if you are not surrounded by people.
The most important thing is that among these people, no one pays attention to them at all without being reported by the military department and the household department, and the times are in turmoil again.
Even, they can say that they can't ask for it, and there is one less guy who goes around asking for money.
At the right time, they are a force that no one can shake.
Yu Youhan was stunned for a moment, then nodded unconsciously, and didn't say a word.
"Er Yong's wisdom and art, although Gu Liang will not be able to pass. However, it is good to fight in the field, not the ancient method, now it is okay to be a general, and he will be a general in the future, which is not a perfect plan. ”
For Yu Youhan, Qin Haoming has some expectations in his heart, but now the overall view is a little worse.
These words can be regarded as encouragement to him.
"The key to a soldier is to be surprising and unpredictable, and to win. Battle after battle, the art of war is constant, the use is wonderful, and there is one heart. ”
Yu Youhan bowed slightly and replied.
"Okay, well, you go and get ready to go to work, and there will be surprises to the obligation."
Qin Haoming laughed and turned to leave, very satisfied with Yu Youhan's reply, it seemed that he was not pedantic, and knew how to use troops flexibly. [.]
