051st Training
Zhu Youhua will take a certain amount of time every day to come to watch the drill in person, the new army saw that the body of the Son of Heaven was often standing on the school platform to watch their drills, one by one excited and inexplicable, full of energy, and wanted to perform well in front of the Son of Heaven, so that the efficiency of the drill was greatly increased, and many people who were originally shaken by the hard work of training saw that the Son of Heaven was by their side, and they all gritted their teeth and endured it, Zhu Youhua wanted this effect.

After watching the New Army's drill for a while, Zhu Youhua took his cronies and civil and military forces down the high platform and walked into the conference hall not far from the school grounds.
Dozens of rows of barracks have also been built on the south side of the school field, all of which are brick and stone barracks, and there are public toilets between every two rows of barracks.
After entering the conference hall, Liu Zhaoji, the chief instructor of the new army, said to the emperor: "The way of military training, one is discipline, the second is spiritual, the third is technology, and the fourth is physical fitness. So from below, the minister plans to let them learn the craft according to the regulations. ”
Zhu Youhua nodded, indicating that he had no objection.
According to the traditional training methods, the first practice of personal martial arts, and then the practice of camp marching and tactics.
As the saying goes, the master of art is bold, the cowardly enemy is still shallow, and the good at fighting must be fine.
In order to better stimulate the training enthusiasm of the new army, Liu Zhaoji learned from Qi Jiguang and adopted a hierarchical system, dividing the martial arts achievements into nine grades; those who can study hard and are proficient in martial arts will be promoted, and those who are lazy in the soldiers and do not learn martial arts will be punished if they are unfamiliar with the order.
Ten days of the test, the way of assessment is the battle, each person fights, win, will be promoted to a level, lost, will be downgraded, punished ten military sticks, until half a year later the final examination compared to the total score, set to stay. Under this measure, there was a great deal of enthusiasm among the people.
This is a martial arts practice, and whether the proficiency of weapons can be used or not is also related to the strength of the body. Of course, there is absolutely no problem with the nutrition of the new army, and after raising the generals with meat and rice in the camp for a while, the new army is ruddy and has inexhaustible strength.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was mainly a battle of cold weapons, which required exercise of hand strength and arm strength, and the exercise methods such as crouches and sit-ups used in later generations, Zhu Youhua felt that it was not much use.
In the era of alternating cold and hot weapons, the quality of individual soldiers is very important. It is inevitable to select a person with strong personal strength as a junior officer. The stone lock is a very common tool for exercising in the military camp of the Ming Dynasty, which is basically found in every military camp.
In the army, stone locks are often used to train grip strength, wrist strength, arm strength, waist and leg strength. The stone lock lifting method mainly includes snatch and swing lift, with forward throw, reverse throw, straddle throw, back throw and other throwing methods and hand, finger, elbow, shoulder, head and other ways to form a variety of suit actions. Therefore, Zhu Youhua very open-mindedly adopted Liu Zhaoji's suggestion, and the new army had to lift stone locks every day to exercise physical strength and coordination.
According to the charter, the new army should also learn some simple and practical hand-to-hand combat techniques that are suitable for actual combat, as well as knife skills and gun skills.
The so-called year knife and moon stick for a lifetime gun.
If you teach the whole set by hand, I don't know how long it will take.
In a short period of time, they can only teach them some simple and effective killing skills, and the simpler and more effective the moves on the battlefield, as long as they practice repeatedly, they can also wield great power. In the following days, in order not to be eliminated, everyone trained harder.
Dressed in sand coats and with sandbags tied to their hands and feet, they kept running laps along the school grounds, and in the middle of summer, everyone was sweating profusely.
In one corner of the camp, hundreds of recruits stood in five rows, holding their spears diagonally, and in front of them were rows of wooden stakes, which were as thick as one person hugging each other, the same height as adults, and on both sides there were swirling wooden arms, on which the throat, heart, ribs, waist and other fatal parts were marked with different colors.
Han Cheng, deputy instructor of the New Army, explained while commanding: "People have four major points, in addition to the heart, there are three places: eyes, neck, and waist.
Human eyes are very fragile, and when attacked, they can be blind, dizzy, or dead. Neck, there is a throat and trachea in front of the neck, there is a cervical vein on the side of the neck, and the back of the neck is the cervical vertebrae. Kidneys, they are located on both sides of the waist, once stabbed in this part, the light will bleed and severe pain, lose combat power, and the heavy will bleed, the waist will break and die.
You must keep in mind these four key points, when facing the enemy on the battlefield, when the spear stabs, just greet the vital place, even if you can't kill it with one blow, let it lose its combat power instantly, otherwise you will die! ”
Speaking of this, Han Cheng said loudly: "Ben will show you first, you can see it!" ”
He put on a sideways posture, raised the spear diagonally, and then stabbed forward, the spear stabbed the heart of the wooden stake in front of him, and then retracted the gun, raised the gun, and stabbed forward again, this time stabbing the throat of the wooden stake, and so on four times, stabbing the eyes, throat, waist, and heart of the wooden stake in an instant.
After reading it, everyone applauded.
"Now you'll follow me to stab."
After speaking, he raised his spear obliquely and said loudly: "Raise the gun!" ”
The new troops obeyed the order, raising their spears diagonally.
Han Cheng shouted: "Thorn! ”
"Kill!" The recruits roared angrily, and hundreds of spears "Bang! "The ground stabbed the wooden stakes, but some of them stabbed the vital point, some of them did not.
Han Cheng yelled: "Put away the gun, continue, raise the gun!" ”
Hundreds of spears stand out together, and the scene is spectacular.
"Thorn!"
"Kill!"
There were bursts of roars, and a forest of guns was raised, although there were only a few hundred people with guns in front of them, and the stabbing was not neat, but on the whole, there was still a breathtaking momentum. Spearmen are the cheapest type of troops, and they are also the easiest to form combat power, affordable and convenient, Han Cheng, as the deputy chief instructor of the imperial camp, is just a demonstration, and the real implementation of the training still depends on the temporary military academies at all levels - the original Fuwang Mansion guards carefully taught.
At the beginning of June, Zhu Youhua received an unexpected note from Lu Zhenfei, the newly appointed head of the ministry, but the content was written by Chen Bangyan, a great Confucian in Lingnan.
Titled "Zhongxing Political Strategy", Zhu Youhua's heart suddenly lit up, and he couldn't wait to open it and read it.
The whole policy is sprinkled with nearly 10,000 words, and its content is not only a needle to the current evils, but also all-encompassing, not only to thoroughly analyze the various malpractices of the Ming Dynasty, but also to have some corresponding reform strategies for maladministration. In particular, in view of the problems of national policy and garrison, he put forward four strategies such as liaison, control, progress, and response, and "two combinations of the Yangtze River, three demands, and fourteen gaps", and conceived Dongyu as the first imaginary enemy.
Historically, Chen Bangyan came to Nanjing with the 10,000-character Pingrong policy but ran into walls everywhere, although Ma Shiying, Shi Kefa and other monarchs and ministers of the southern capital were stupid, but they were not idiots, the reason why the strategy was not adopted, Zhu Youhua guessed that its content mainly involved the resistance to the Qing Dynasty, which was contrary to the strategic policy of Ma Shiying, Shi Kefa and others who were advocating "joint Qing extermination". People with lofty ideals can't help but sigh.
After reading this 10,000-character Pingrong policy, Zhu Youhua was very excited, and decided to meet one of the three loyalists in history in person with the mentality of seeking talents, and by the way, he took a test on the spot to see if he lived up to his name. is really a talent like Ruan Dacheng, and he doesn't mind being hired exceptionally. At present, the imperial court is really lacking in talents, not to mention talents like Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, and Hong Chengchou, that is, Chen Xinjia, Wang Qiaonian, and Yang Sichang are very rare, and they can be met but not sought.
Soon, in the side hall of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youhua met with Chen Bangyan, a talented cloth cloth.
Chen Bangyan is in his forties, with a clear complexion, a long beard and beautiful hair, a green cloth shirt, and a literary atmosphere in his eyes, which makes people know at a glance that he is a Shuoru who has read more than 10,000 books.
Chen Bangyan followed the little inner eunuch into the solemn hall, knelt in front of Zhu Youhua and bowed three times.
"Student Shunde County Xiucai Chen Bangyan, I have seen my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Flatten, don't be formal." Zhu Youhua raised his hands and motioned for Chen Bangyan to get up.
After seeing the ceremony, Zhu Youhua didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point: "I have read Mr.'s political policy discussion the day before yesterday, and it is quite insightful, and when I think of the current situation of the imperial court, I am really heartbroken!"
At that time, Emperor Taizu Gao, who had experienced a hundred battles, pacified the theft, expelled the Meng Yuan, and had the Ming Dynasty for 300 years. However, in the Chongzhen period, since the Emperor Liehuang ascended to the pole, he has taken it as his own responsibility, is diligent in government and loves the people, and cares about the country. Get up early and go to bed late, you must bow down to everything, don't dare to have the slightest slackness, Junde has no flaws, who in the world is not praised? Why did he struggle for 17 years, exhausted his energy, and had a heart, but he was unable to return to heaven, what caused Daming to be in such a predicament now? ”
The emperor's sudden question did not make Chen Bangyan panic, more than forty years of ups and downs have already sharpened his temperament very calmly, even if he faces the supreme, he is still in the same situation. After Chen Bangyan pondered calmly and calmly for a moment, Fang Yi made a bow and said, "Students have two opinions, I don't know which one my emperor wants to hear?" ”
Zhu Youhua was stunned when he saw it and said, "There are still two views? You might as well talk about it, and I'll listen. ”
