The first tornado begins at the end of the Wanderer

The Yanling ferry of the Qi River is the throat of the Yellow River, located about 20 miles south of the Qi River, its south is the Yellow River Gorge of the mountains, and the north is the plain of Tantan and Swinging, the contrast is huge. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The width of the river here is less than 50 meters, so there has always been a saying that "there is no wind and three waves, and there is a thunder on the flat ground".

Lu Xiangsheng and Zu Kuan joined forces and stationed here, preparing to cross the river tomorrow. This was followed by Chen Xinjia's army, which was struggling and following suit.

When Qin Haoming came, it was close to evening, and he originally wanted to cross the river overnight, but was blocked by Yang Guozhu.

They did not have large boats, and only small fishing boats crossed the river, which could not carry more round-trips, and the night was too risky. Qin Haoming thought about it and made sense, so he didn't force it, so he gave up.

The camp of the Chinese army and the generals of the Tianxiong Army gathered, each standing neatly according to the size of their official positions, and waiting for Lu Xiangsheng's arrangements for tomorrow's march.

"General Zu, tomorrow and the hour, your department will be the vanguard to take the lead in crossing the river and inquire about the news."

"The last general will obey the order!"

"General Tiger, your department is in charge of breaking off."

"The last general will obey the order!"

"The others will complete the crossing of the river by noon tomorrow with the Governor as the Chinese army, and there shall be no mistake!"

"No!"

A full, neat voice filled the military tent.

The morale is high, and the morale is high, and the military spirit is available.

Lu Xiangsheng's originally serious square face showed a hint of a smile, the corner of his eyes swept over the generals below, raised his voice and said:

"Jiannu has become the end of the canopy, and it will be difficult for a long time. I hope that you will continue to make persistent efforts, complete your efforts in one battle, and eliminate Jiannu, and this governor will ask the Son of Heaven for merit. ”

"No!"

The faces of the generals were beaming, this time Jiannu Koubian, the Tianxiong army won one after another, and a first merit will definitely not be able to run.

"Lu Du, there is a danger of the Yellow River ahead, why don't you have a drink tonight.

The last general hasn't been with the generals for a long time, and it's too boring to follow the senior supervisors, and the birds are fading out of their mouths, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng's task was assigned, Zu Kuan salivated and looked like a ruffian.

"It's okay, it just so happened that Gonggong Li still had some good wine left in the army last time, so I will block Jiannu for you this time and behead three thousand to celebrate the achievement. But don't be greedy, especially you. ”

Zu Kuan, as the chief soldier who led the troops alone, how could he faint out of his mouth?

Drinking is fake, and the relationship is real, Lu Xiangsheng knows it. But now that Zu Kuan is a guest army, this face must be given.

Zu Kuan was overjoyed and hurriedly saluted and thanked him. Taking advantage of the preparation of wine and food in the army, he took Qin Haoming sneakily and walked to his military tent.

"General Qin, fortunately not dishonored!"

Zu Kuan was upright, and as soon as he entered the military tent and had not yet sat down, he took out the credit book drawn by the master of the army and showed it to Qin Haoming, which clearly stated that he had beheaded 3,200 beheadings, and attached a note to ask the court for merit.

"There is no need for this, the last general believes in General Zu."

Qin Haoming pushed away the data handed to him by Zu Kuan, took out a stack of silver tickets that he carried with him, and directly counted out 160,000 to him.

Qin Haoming's cheerfulness caught Zu Kuan a little off guard, and he felt a little like a villain.

In his mind, it was his own money that was spent, and although Qin Haoming said that he would not be in arrears, bargaining was essential. Therefore, he overreported by several hundred levels.

"100,000 is enough, and there was part of the deposit last time. It's a brother or not, it's a few hundred overreported, but rest assured, the others are real.

There is no moisture, after all, the battlefield is cleaned by us. ”

Zu Kuan's face was colorful, and he returned the 60,000 silver tickets to Qin Haoming.

Qin Haoming smiled, understanding the meaning of his words.

Daming rarely won against Jiannu and had no chance to clean up the battlefield.

Therefore, it becomes very difficult to harvest the first level, and there are often only dozens or hundreds of beheadings in a battle, but the actual number of Jiannu killed is far more than that.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that tens of thousands of troops are fighting against each other, and it is both horse warfare and artillery, and there are dozens of people who have fallen from their horses alone, so where can they kill dozens or hundreds of enemies?

However, Daming doesn't care about these, and simply uses the first level to record merit. In order to prevent the killing of good and risky merit, it is also fair, and to encourage the Ming soldiers to win.

"The imperial court's pension is insufficient, so if there are more, give it to the casualties, and let Qin express his heart."

Pushing away the 60,000 taels that Zu Kuan handed back, Qin Haoming spoke in a low tone.

In Qin Haoming's eyes, things that can be solved with money are not called things, and what he is most afraid of is things that cannot be solved with money.

As long as the team led by Zu Kuan dares to fight Jiannu, he is confident that he can still earn back a little silver.

"Thank you General Qin for your kindness, but Zu is disrespectful, and when I go back, I will let the brothers remember the general's kindness."

Zu Kuan was a little moved, but he was not hypocritical, he packed up the silver ticket, and his tone was sincere.

The Ming Dynasty can't even take care of the living now, let alone the casualties who died in battle?

It is said that his ancestral Kuan's military discipline is corrupt, but who has considered it for him?

As a general who rose from a family, he is not like Zu Dashou and other military families, he has a certain foundation in the Ming Dynasty, so he does not dare to be too harsh on Zu Dashou in terms of food and salary.

But he was different, and the Chinese Wu looked down on him again, and the war had to be fought, but the grain and salary were more deductible, as if he had been raised by the queen mother.

Therefore, he can't do it if he doesn't set his troops and plunder, otherwise the army will collapse and mutiny immediately.

"General Zu, learn more from Qi Shaobao's skills. There is no oil and water to plunder the people, and the reputation is stinky, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

The corners of Qin Haoming's mouth curled slightly, patted Zu Kuan's shoulder, and reminded him kindly.

The government of the Ming Dynasty was deserted, the disputes between friends and parties continued, the local greed for ink became a common practice, and the army even killed the good and risked the merits to eat vacancies and even pretended to be robbers.

In such an environment, Qi Jiguang was relocated to the Zhejiang capital in the 34th year of Jiajing, and served as a staff general, guarding the three prefectures of Ning, Shao, and Taiwan.

Because of this fat shortage, he spent all his savings, so he thought hard about how to make money, and finally came up with a trick.

He first continued to report that there were many Japanese in the jurisdiction, and then asked the imperial court to send heavy troops to garrison them. He knew that there were very few standing troops in the interior, but this was just to pave the way for his next step.

In the thirty-sixth year of Jiajing, he reported that the imperial court had difficulties in sending troops, and he was willing to share the worries of the imperial court and recruit village warriors by himself, and the imperial court only needed to allocate military funds.

The military department was annoyed for a long time, so they approved his report and allocated him military funds every year.

On the other hand, Qi Jiguang summoned the local gentry and forced the local gentry to contribute money and grain in the name of resisting the Japanese and protecting the family.

After the money, grain and silver arrived, he began to recruit 2,000 troops in Yiwu, known as 4,500 to the outside world, and ate the empty salary of 2,500 people at once.

Qi Jiguang accumulated a lot of money in the past ten years, constantly bribed important ministers of the imperial court, and finally got through the door of Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, two cabinet scholars.

was appointed as the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion of the Forbidden Army, and then Qi Jiguang used a lot of money to buy a beautiful woman called "Qianjin Ji" and gave it to Zhang Juzheng.

Therefore, in the 37th year of Jiajing, Zhang Zaifu overrode public opinion and appointed Qi Jiguang as the prime minister of Jizhou, Changping, and Baoding to train troops.

When Qi Jiguang was the chief soldier and resisted the northern Tatars, every time the leaders of the capital came up to inspect, Qi Jiguang personally received him.

The delicacies of the mountains and the sea, the vocal beauties were slammed for a while, and before taking away, they also gave local products (game, mink, gold, silver and satin) where such a huge expense came from, everyone knows it.

Qi Jiguang stabilized his position in this way, and it turned out that he was far-sighted.

So much so that Hu Zongxian was finished, and he still stood for decades, all thanks to his communicative work.

Socializing requires money, and with Qi Jiguang's level treatment, even if he borrows usury, he will not use it. So with his eyes closed, he can guess that he has financial resources other than salary.

But if not, under a bureaucratic system like the Ming Dynasty, where instead of raising the honest with a high salary, but only with a low salary, how could Qi Shaobao create an undefeated and prestigious Qi family army?

How can we strengthen the side walls, build piers, repair dangerous passes, train soldiers and horses, complete equipment, open up tuntian, accumulate money valley, and formulate chariots and horses to cooperate with combat tactics in Jizhen for 16 years?

Repeatedly defeated and harassed the enemy, prepared for repairs, and feasted on the thistle.

Because according to the Ming Dynasty's fortune, not only can not be corrupted to maintain various relationships in officialdom, but even it is difficult to support a family.

Otherwise, he can only be like Hai Rui, not only becoming a bureaucrat called a child, but also allowing his family to live a life called a child.

is so poor that he can't even afford a pound of pork all year round, and occasionally buying a pound of pork will become a sensation in the city.

It is unimaginable that as an official in the Ming Dynasty, if there were no gangs, if there was not enough money to dredge contacts and open up relationships, but to be prosperous and safe and sound, it is probably impossible to protect the official life.

Therefore, Qi Jiguang lost his ancestral teachings, followed the customs of the villagers, and sang whatever song he went to.

When he entered the officialdom, he had to be a corrupt official. In fact, such corrupt officials have never been interrupted in China's history.

However, Qi Jiguang really didn't want to be corrupt and take bribes. Because when he was young, he didn't worry about food and clothing, and people born with a golden key were more able to look down on money.

It is said that Qi Jiguang is a corrupt and honest person at the same time, because Qi Jiguang has been an official countless times in his life and has been transferred in most of China.

From Fujian, Guangdong, and Hainan in the south, to Mongolia and Northeast China in the north, he has traveled to most of China, and he has stayed in poor places and rich places.

He has done it all, but every time he left a place, he was penniless and clean, and he didn't even leave any legacy for his descendants.

This is Qi Jiguang's wrist activism, but you should know that when he guarded the southeast, the people were happy, the Japanese were frightened, and the lives of thousands of people were saved because of him.

When he left his post, he had been a general for more than 30 years, and his family had no spare land, but only thousands of books.

And all his income, whether legitimate or not, was used for socializing, raising the army, and he himself was innocent.

"Ben will understand what General Qin means, who doesn't want to be famous in history? However, the court boss looked down on Zu's identity and refused to accept it. ”

Zu Kuan closed his eyes, and the sadness on his face made people feel inexplicably sad.

"Today is different from the past, advocating literature and cultivating martial arts, and equality between civil and military is the right way.

The princes of the court are just some corpses and vegetarians, why can I let my generation of bloody soldiers bow their heads and flatter?

Drink and go, don't get drunk and don't go home! ”

Zu Kuan's sorrow aroused the pride in Qin Haoming's heart, put his arm around Zu Kuan's shoulders, and walked out of the account.

The Qin and Han dynasties were the most powerful era of Chinese group combat effectiveness, but unfortunately it was canceled in the Jin Dynasty, which laid the groundwork for the later Wuhu Chaohua!

The Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty turned the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline and downfall, and also indirectly led the rulers of the Song Dynasty to adopt an extreme policy of emphasizing literature over military force.

While inheriting the Han culture, the Ming Dynasty also brought Chongwen and military suppression to the extreme. At the same time, it also made the Han nation further weak, and the national character also lost the martial atmosphere.

is no longer a group of fierce and righteous people in the past, many people have become extremely selfish, without a little spirit of unity, just like the old ministers of the Ming Dynasty, which is the sorrow of a nation.

National rejuvenation is destined to be a lonely journey, but even if it is covered with bruises, even criticism and scolding, Qin Haoming must do everything possible to awaken my majestic Huaxia Erlang martial soul and awaken!

Winning over the border generals and reshaping the army that dares to fight is Qin Haoming's first step forward.

Therefore, today's 160,000 taels of silver tickets, Qin Haoming spent them willingly, this money must be given!

Only in this way, through Zu Kuan's words and deeds, Qin Haoming believes that in the future, there will be more and more border generals who will exchange the head of Jiannu for silver.
