At the end of September of the same year, Zhu Youhua successfully married Zhou Mengyu, the daughter of the wealthy businessman Zhou Xiaoshan, as a concubine. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The bride is very beautiful, very gentle, very considerate to Zhu Youhua, so that Zhu Youhua tasted the warmth that he has never had, he threw all the melancholy and troubles behind, and really lived a few sweet and happy days.
……
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached the end of October, and the 30,000 new troops of the imperial camp on the school field are all seriously training, of which 20,000 joined more than two months ago, and under the supervision of the chief teacher Liu Zhaoji, none of them dare to be lazy.
They all wore brand-new Ming mandarin duck battle jackets, below the waist, with iron mesh skirts or iron net pants, red hats, and leather shoes.
In order to distinguish it from the original 10,000 imperial camps, the new sergeants' battle jackets were all cyan, and the original ones were red.
As for the officer's mandarin duck battle jacket, there are two layers of iron mesh inside the jacket, the green cloth battle skirt under the jacket hangs down to the calf, and there is a sleeveless single-layer iron leaf armor outside the jacket, all the way to the waist, the front and back of the armor have heart guards, wearing iron mesh boots, and also wearing a red hat military hat. Dressed like this, he was heroic, and a man's masculine beauty suddenly burst out. There is a sea of red and green on the school grounds, bright and beautiful.
Zhu Youhua sat on a horse, watched and walked, nodded frequently, and looked quite satisfied, when he arrived in the middle of the school field, he got off his horse, slowly stepped onto the high platform, looked down at the new soldiers who were training under the stage, waved Liu Zhaoji, ordered the suspension of the training, and all gathered in line.
After the drum was beaten, in just a moment, the 30,000 new troops had been lined up in more than 30 neat squares.
In front of the emperor, these new soldiers all held their heads high, staring ahead, and tens of thousands of colonels were silent on the field, and the needles could be heard.
Zhu Youhua nodded with satisfaction, and said to Liu Zhaoji, Zhang Tanggong, Han Cheng, Ma Xiong and others who were standing beside him: "You Aiqing have worked hard these days. ”
The emperor's casual and natural words of comfort deeply moved them, and they all expressed their loyalty: "It is incumbent upon the ministers to serve the saints." ”
"There are quite a lot of recruits integrated into the imperial camp, they are more than enthusiastic, and their personal skills and combat experience are insufficient compared to the battalion soldiers recruited in early May, so we must step up their training."
Zhu Youhua glanced at the audience, and deliberately compared the military literacy of his cronies and generals, so he said to the people beside him: "Military drill training is nothing more than individual skills and collective battle formations. ”
"Speaking of comprehension, there are some." Liu Zhaoji saw that everyone was frowning and thinking, and he had no intention of speaking for a while, for fear that he would sweep the emperor's face in the cold, so he could only take the lead with a hard head, he considered his tone and said: "The minister thinks that the battlefield fights and does not need fancy moves, what is particular is to kill with one blow, save physical strength, be stable as a mountain, fast as electricity, kill with one blow, go to the battlefield, slash with guns and bayonets, hit elbows with knees, and only greet to the fatal place."
There are ministers who believe that war is not a person's business, personal skills on the battlefield play a very limited role, pay attention to each other's cooperation, my Ming traditional tactics are, long-range with bows and crossbows, birds, artillery, a swarm of bees, etc., after the short soldiers, jumping repeatedly short assault, spearmen take turns, the horse team outflanks the battle, the enemy rout is the horse team to take the lead in pursuit, etc., in general, the minister believes that all things are mutually reinforcing, the battlefield is not absolutely invincible, lies in the cooperation of all arms. ”
Senator Chen Bangyan stroked his beard and nodded frequently, as if he felt the same way, and finally couldn't help but echo the sentence: "Sun Tzu's Art of War said: Water is controlled by the land, and soldiers are defeated by the enemy." The soldiers are impermanent, the water is impermanent, and the old minister thinks that the one who can win due to the change of the enemy in the battle formation can be described as the god of the army! ”
"The two Aiqing are right." Zhu Youhua smiled and shook his head, soldiers, fierce, the place of life and death, the way of survival, must not be ignored. I believe that the way of battle formation, skillful skills, one person can defeat dozens of people; If the formation is very familiar, tens of millions of people can be like one person! If you can do it without arrogance and discouragement from defeat, you can really become a victorious army. ”
"My Emperor Shengming!"
As they spoke, the sun set again, and the sun grew redder and redder, reddening half of the western sky, and the fish-scale clouds floating in the mid-air heralded another sunny day.
After returning to the palace, Zhu Youlang summoned Liu Zhaoji, Zhang Tanggong, Yan Yingyuan, Chen Bangyan, Zhang Mingzhen, Zhang Jiayu, Zhu Chenggong and others to the imperial front to discuss the establishment of the imperial army's pro-army water and land division. The Yangtze River Sailor was also pulled into the imperial camp system.
The battalion system of the Ming Dynasty is very chaotic, the traditional guard system has existed in name only, and the current implementation is the system of recruiting soldiers to fight the soldiers, because it is set up in case of trouble, and the temporary and random nature of withdrawing without anything to do has led to the fact that between the provinces, the battalion system is not quite the same, and the official rank is not equivalent, and it is difficult to distinguish between rights and responsibilities.
Then the rank exists in name only, and all kinds of complex and difficult to understand the general soldier recognize the flag, from the general soldier down, the general flag of each deputy general and staff general is also different.
Not only are there no obvious signs between military schools at all levels, but there is also no distinction between artillery, cavalry, bird-fired soldiers, and other military branches, and even the flags used for command are not quite the same among battalions.
This is still the result of Qi Jiguang's sorting out, and the military department is also improved according to Qi Jiguang's rules, which shows how chaotic the camp system of the Ming Dynasty is. The Qing court's green battalion military system is an improved version of the Ming Dynasty's military system, and the military reform has been ahead of the Ming Dynasty.
As the benchmark of military reform, the imperial camp and pro-army directly affect the direction of military reform in the future, so we must strive for perfection and put it in place at one time.
Zhu Youhua discussed this matter with several close generals and military counselors for three days, and finally drafted a plan.
The specific battalion structure of the Imperial Battalion Land Division is as follows:
12 people are called shi, and there are chief and deputy chiefs.
Four 48 people are called the flag, the positive one is the general flag, and the deputy one is the small flag, a total of 50 people, and there is 1 tiger squat cannon with 2 artillerymen.
There are 2 killers and 2 muskets in one flag. Hand-to-hand combat in front, muskets in the back. When the muskets fired, the hand-to-hand combat team squatted. Hand-to-hand combat uses a simplified version of the Mandarin Duck Formation, which is easy to train.
Among them, the killers are equipped with manpower: every 2 sword and shield hands hold long cards, and there are 8 spearmen in the back, and the spears do not exceed 4 meters. The last 2 boring palladium hands. Each shield bearer is flanked by 4 spearmen, with 2 rows in front and 2 rows of spearmen, responsible for assassination near and far. The last 2 boring palladium hands are responsible for filling the position, because they can also stab the file, not long or short, and more comprehensive. 12 people.
