Chapter Twenty-Three: Choosing a Parent

"Your Highness, I don't know if the new army is drawn from the old army, or if the children of the good family are re-selected." Meng Ao, who received the letter of appointment, asked Tian Jian.

Hearing this, the scholars nodded, and they also had such questions in their hearts.

"Of course, it was re-selected from among the people." Tian Jian replied.

Although he didn't know much about the style of the Qi army, Tian Jian still knew the problems of the soldiers who had been in the army for a long time.

When Qi Jiguang of later generations selected the Qi family's army, he lost the battle with the Japanese because of the Shaoxing soldiers selected first. He wrote in the article "Sacrifice Ding Shen General" (Ding Shen General is Yiwu Bing Ding Mao): "The first practice of Shao people, only into the army, and finally cowardly in the short knife to engage in battle, so that it is also." Looking for the battle of Zhoushan, only 700 Japanese soldiers, set the world's military generals, after a hundred battles, actually reckless, is to prepare for the victory or defeat of the soldiers. "The most dissatisfied thing about Qi Jiguang of the Shaoxing soldiers is that they have to negotiate conditions before the war, and they will not charge if they do not give money.

After being disappointed in the Shaoxing people, Qi Jiguang heard that the Yiwu people dared to fight and were brave by nature, (that is, bullying the obligors who did not understand the philistine) so he went to Yiwu to recruit troops, and there was a legend that the Qi family army had not been defeated. The reason for his recruitment in Yiwu was briefly explained in the "Discussion on Practicing Wu Wounded Soldiers": "Hearing that Yiwu dewed the golden cave, the disciples handed Chen soldiers to the people of Xinjiang to fight against thorns, and the bones were violent. And now concise training, that is, one brigade can be used as three armies, why not have soldiers. ”

Meng Ao nodded, the slightly black face produced by long-term hunting was a little red, and training the new army could truly reflect his skills.

"I will hand over the money for recruiting new troops to each of your commanders, and you will use the money to recruit soldiers, and in three days, I will see that each of you can recruit enough qualified recruits." Tian Jian said quietly, without showing a trace of emotion on his face.

Some of the scholars of the Qi State heard this, their hearts were excited, with their own connections, as well as the money given by the prince to recruit soldiers is simply not a thing, although three days is a little urgent, but with the strong appeal of the prince's six rates, recruiting new soldiers can also be completed.

But the soldiers of the nations were in trouble, and they were unfamiliar with the land, and although they had money to support them, where did they recruit new soldiers?

"After the soldiers of the Qi country have recruited new soldiers, they must help the soldiers of the other countries to recruit, this palace can promise, if one soldier can recruit fifty people, this palace can promise him to be the banner master, if two hundred people are recruited, this palace can promise him to be a hundred households, if it can recruit a thousand people, the position of the commander can be added to one, can you understand?" Tian Jian shouted in a deep voice.

This method was used by Tian Jianxue Han Xin, when Han Xin was short of soldiers, Han Xin raised more than 200,000 people and surrounded Pengcheng with this method during the Battle of Pengcheng. Those banner owners who promised, Baihu, Tian Jian doesn't care very much, if you have this ability and become this official position, as long as you don't make a mistake, Tian Jian won't change it, if you make a mistake and don't have the ability, he can also change people! As for the commander, if you can really gather a thousand people, then you must have a certain status, except that the nobles are heroes, and the nobles don't look down on this, and the heroes, Tian Jian can't ask for it!

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, heroes were often linked to Xinyi, from the Spring and Autumn Period to assassinate Wang Yu, Yu Rang assassinated Zhao Xiangzi (Zhao Wuxian), and then to the Warring States Nie Zheng assassinated Han Xiang, Jing Ke assassinated King Qin. They were born for Xinyi and died for Xinyi, and the same was true of the Hongbang, the world's largest gang in later generations, who recruited Chinese people to donate money to save the country when the father of the country, Mr. Sun Yat-sen, saved the country. "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone!"

"I'll get it." All the scholars bowed in unison. They also had an admiration for Tian Jian in their hearts at this time, and they could think of such an idea to recruit new soldiers.

"All the scholars retreat first, the palace has prepared a room in the East Palace, you scholars can retreat first, and the palace will go to the early dynasty in a while." Tian Jian stood up and said.

"I'll stand down first." The scholar bowed again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please the room prepared for you by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here." The eunuch guided the scholars.

After a while, the scholars left one after another, Tian Jian softened his aching head and shouted: "Xiao Ai, prepare carriages and horses for the palace, the palace is going to the early dynasty." ”

As Tian Jian stepped into the carriage, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in this silent Linzi street.

The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and Tian Jian's preparations have really begun, and the Qin State is not far away!

……………

When Tian Jian arrived in Miyagi, it was already dark.

The platform of the road.

"The ministers will discuss if they have something, and they will retreat if they have nothing to do." Tian Fazhang was angry and in poor spirits.

Being tossed by the prince early in the morning, he was already very tired, and wanted to have a good night's sleep.

"Back to my king, An Pingjun has already led the army to Handan, and he can immediately wave his army to join the Zhao army and attack the Qin army together." A minister shouted.

"Okay, is there anything else?" Tian Fazhang said impatiently.

"Back on the Internet, what Weichen said is over." The minister replied.

"Ministers, what else?" Tian Fazhang asked.

"Your Majesty, I have heard that the lonely yin is not long, and the lonely yang is invincible. The prince is virtuous, now an adult, I don't know where to hire? Another minister shouted.

When Tian Jian heard this, he was shocked, and looked at the minister who spoke, it turned out to be Feng Chang, who was in charge of ceremonial sacrifices, with white hair, and he was really disrespectful to the old man! I'm only fifteen! I'm going to find a wife.

When Tian Fazhang heard this, he cheered up, looked at Tian Jian curiously, and said, "The prince doesn't know which princess he likes." ”

Because the position of the crown prince is different from that of other princes, the kings of various countries generally marry princesses of other countries to make political capital, and it can also be more advantageous when it comes to diplomacy. The most famous is Qin and Chu, when Wu Zixu broke through Yingdu, King Chuping sent Shen Baoxu to ask to see Qin Aigong, crying in front of the palace for seven days, Qin Aigong did not want to save Chu, and finally couldn't stand his wife is the princess of Chu, so he sent troops to save Chu.

Tian Jian smiled bitterly in his heart and was about to resign.

Unexpectedly, the old guy who was disrespectful spoke again, and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, the old minister heard that the women of Zhao are plump and white-skinned, the women of Han and Wei are gentle and amiable, and the women of Chu are so thin-waisted,...... I don't know who the king and the prince like. ”

"I don't know which princess is in the prince's picture?" Tian Fazhang asked again.

Tian Jian couldn't hide it, and said: "Father, Fengchang, looking at the situation of the countries, Qin is the country of tigers and wolves, and every day it is trying to swallow up the six countries, Qin is not, Zhao is an in-law, and now King Zhao has no relatives, it is impossible for this palace to marry a princess, and it is impossible to marry, Yan is a vendetta of Qi, and I don't want to destroy Qi all the time, although Wei Han can, but Han Wei is powerless, and he is not a neighbor of my Qi country, according to the palace, only Chu women can marry." Although the state of Chu was forced to move its capital to Chen Ying, the state of Chu still has 3,000 miles of land, and the national strength is not weak. I wonder if Jian'er's remarks are okay? ”
