After listening to Wan Sicheng's proposal, Wang Jiang was the first to express his opposition. When I followed Wang Yi back then, although I was not in charge of military affairs, I knew some basic things after listening to a lot; Later, Chen Wen presided over military affairs, although the two partners did not even work together for a year, but in disobeying the holy decree of entering Zhoushan and the strategy of merging into Jinhua, Chen Wen told him a lot of truths. At this time, Wan Sicheng, a scholar who may not have even read military books, will naturally be categorically rejected by him.

"The way of the soldier is nothing more than avoiding the real and making the false, as long as we are fast enough, we can definitely capture Yuyao. When the time comes, with the talents of the eldest uncle, more sergeants will be able to be trained. If there are more soldiers, we will speak more vigorously in front of Chen Wen. ”

Wang Jiang didn't intend to compete with Chen Wen from the beginning, but he also guessed a little wrong, Wan Sicheng still turned over the "Art of War" before he came, even if the above chapters can't be understood, many things can still be memorized, which is the basic quality of a literati.

But these days, he also saw that the current rabble that claimed to rebuild the Ming army of Dalanshan, headed by Huang Zongxi, probably took over Wang Yi's position, and he still presided over the financial planning, and at the same time assisted the two of them with Zou Xiaonan and Huang Zongyan, who had worked in Feng Jingdi's army, as well as Wan Sicheng and Vance brothers. The matter of training soldiers was handed over to Jiang Han and Shen Tiaolun, of which Jiang Han was responsible for actually leading the troops, and Shen Tiaolun had experience in supervising the army, so he could not only supervise the army, but also assist Jiang Han in training the troops according to Chen Wen's method in Dalanshan.

According to the plan, at first, the restoration of the cottage was to be carried out, and the work of organizing the tuntian and collecting taxes was all a matter of later. In this way, the Wanjia brothers, who have little administrative experience, are relatively idle. Of course, among these people, there is no experience in administrative and military affairs, only their brothers - Wang Jiang, Shen Tiaolun, Zou Xiaonan and Jiang Han do not mention, Huang Zongxi among the Huang family brothers once formed the Shizhong Battalion to fight in the transitional sea, although it ended in a disastrous defeat, but also had some experience, and Huang Zongyan served in Feng Jingdi's army.

As a result, only their brothers are the only ones who are in charge of the current situation and have no experience at all. However, this did not delay them from exerting their spare heat, and Wan Sicheng's proposal here was like this.

"No matter how much you avoid the real and the false, you have to have an army. How many soldiers are there in Yuyao, do you know that we all have a group of Ding Zhuang in our hands now, and even if we see those green battalions not being scared away, we can still count on them to take the city? ”

"Didn't that eunuch remnant bring a recruit back then?"

"The Nantang battalion practiced for several months before fighting with the standard battalion, and had also defeated the middle battalion on Dalan Mountain before, Chen Wen's training methods were not at all comparable to ordinary martial artists, but he had obtained the true inheritance of King Qiyang and Qi Shaobao."

"We also have Qi Shaobao's books, can we be worse than him?" With disdain on his face, Wan Sicheng immediately said what he thought in his heart: "Then train the army as soon as possible." ”

Can you understand the words?

Then, if you can eat it, you will definitely do it!

Wang Jiang really couldn't explain this to them, he had presided over the affairs of Dalan Mountain back then, and he had seen too many people who had a good mouth but didn't know anything about the practice but were still full of self-confidence. For this kind of person, give them a pit and let them continue to talk, but don't give them the opportunity to participate in practice, otherwise it will only mess things up.

"To train soldiers, first of all, we must let the soldiers and their families have a place to live, and they can eat enough to settle down and train, and this is what we are doing now."

"Then when will we start recovering the lost territory, it's too late to let the remnants of the eunuch party take the lead, wouldn't it be a loss of intention?"

Wan Sicheng's father Wan Tai is a famous person of Donglin Fushe, and his eight sons are Si Nian, Si Cheng, Si Frame, Si Chang, Si Xuan, Si Da, Si Bei and Si Tong, who are known as Wan's Eight Dragons in later generations, and are all talented people in Ningbo. In fact, you can see some of it now.

During this time, the excuse used by Huang Zongxi and others was that Chen Wen, a martial artist, was a eunuch and chaotic government. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Wan Jia was originally a military general, Wu Yi General Wan Guozhen, Wu Luo General Ningbo Wei commanded Wan Zhong below, until the Zhengde Dynasty came out of a Jinshi, and turned to the imperial examination. When Chen Wen is mentioned here, he only talks about the remnants of the eunuch party, but he never mentions the chaos of the military people, and he does not give others the opportunity to fight back.

It's just that working with these people has already made him tired after only ten days. This feeling was never felt when Wang Yi was defeated and fought until the Ming army of Dalanshan entered its heyday, and he never had to deal with general affairs every day from morning to night, and even after the fiasco, he organized the people to take refuge in the south and the days on Tiantai Mountain, with the assistance of Chen Wen, he had never been so tired.

"Sure enough, you can't work with guys who can only talk, and it's not enough to bother explaining."

Wang Jiang didn't say this, but expressed noncommittality to Wan Sicheng's party struggle thinking and continued to be busy with his affairs. However, after Wang Jiang left, Wan Sicheng showed a thoughtful look.

"Uncle Shi, the eldest uncle is afraid that he is not of the same mind as us, so he must be careful."

………………

"This Zhejiang Wang Shi is good everywhere, but he is too strict, and he manages everything, as if there is nothing to care about."

"You can be content, let's follow Ma Shuai anyway, it's still early. The gang of thieves in Jiangxi ......" said, the man coughed twice unconsciously, and then said: "Those righteous soldiers in Jiangxi, more than 50 general soldiers, were trained like something, we have been mentally prepared, and we are obedient, how many beatings have been less, if we want to say thank Ma Shuai for thinking about us thoughtfully." ”

On the day of Xiumu, the officers from the two Taizhou Green Battalions got together to eat and drink together, talking about the things in the martial arts academy and the recruit training camp. In particular, the military laws and regulations of the Ming Army in Zhejiang are strict, and there is not so much gray income, so that these officers of the Qing Army are very unaccustomed to it.

"Don't worry now, with the strategy of the grandfather of the country's art of war, sooner or later there will be an uncle, and at worst, there will be a hanging seal reward for you, even if you don't have these, the land and the world are indispensable, but don't lose the big ones for those small profits."

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a few days, your filial son is talking to our prison officer, I think you don't want to learn cavalry, you have to become a prison officer instead."

"I think that if I haven't followed Grandpa Guo into battle, I have to pass the audit."

After several months of training, the four newly built battalions have completed their basic training and are now entering the battalion for run-in training. For these four battalions, Chen Wen gave the names of Tiantai, Ruian, Huangyan, and Wenling respectively, and obtained the names of the four counties of Taizhou and Wenzhou. After these four battalions were formed, he could liberate the other battalions from the task of garrisoning, and then fight Hong Chengchou to the death.

This was originally a plan, but when the news that Wang Jiang was kidnapped by Huang Zongxi came, Chen Wen suddenly had a bad premonition.

………………

"Huang Vicexian, your house slaves and tenants, it is better to form a guard in the end."

After half a month of repairs, the restoration work of the battalion has basically been completed, and the training should begin as soon as possible.

Before the incident, everyone had also said in advance that since they wanted to learn Chen Wen's training methods, they should learn them thoroughly. The servants and tenants in each family's house brought it with them were also trained with other soldiers, and personal relations were not allowed to be mentioned again, and they were completely dissolved. It's just that many of them have a feudal personal relationship with the people in charge of the head, and the problem lies here.

"Governor Jiang, if you have something to say, you should be blunt, say half hide and half hide, I'm afraid there will be a gentleman's frank style, right?"

Jiang Han spoke to Huang Zongxi, but Huang Zongyan answered first, and his words were quite polite. Glancing at his younger brother with a surprised face, Huang Zongxi turned to Jiang Han and said, "Governor Jiang, wasn't this matter discussed before?" ”

"It was discussed before, but ......" Halfway through speaking, Jiang Han turned to look at Huang Zongyan.

"Obscure wood, you say!"

Seeing that his brother had already shown a displeased look, Huang Zongyan had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Yesterday's first exercise, the soldiers worked very hard, and today it is inevitable that they will get up later, but Jiang Dudu will be flogged......

As soon as Huang Zongyan said this, Huang Zongxi immediately understood. If it were someone else, Huang Zongyan would probably not talk much, and the people who would be punished would definitely be the people of their Huang family, or including the servants and tenants of their Huang family.

"In the army, the three drums will not be cut immediately, and the light ones will also be inserted into the camp. Since it has been decided that the soldiers will be trained according to the method of Xiu Guogong, even during the training period, the whipping of fifty is naturally indispensable. ”

"Governor Jiang, you are the main general, but you also have to be considerate of the soldiers. Isn't it possible to follow the word authority? ”

"Of course not, since we have said it, we must stick to it, Xiu Guogong has never been in power, and we can't do it. I heard Director Shen say that Xiu Guogong also encountered this problem back then, not only the captain and soldiers, but even Dongyang Bo Yin Yue was also pulled down and punished. There were even pacification soldiers, and Xiu Guogong was personally punished, so there was a battalion of male soldiers in Nantang. If you whip a few whips, you have to obey the power, and this soldier can still be trained? ”

"That eunuch remnant has always been too harsh, and he doesn't read the books of sages on weekdays, and he doesn't have benevolence in his heart to have today's ......"

Even if they used the remnants of the eunuch party and the martial arts to slander Chen Wen, they had to follow Chen Wen's method in training, otherwise even they knew that this righteous army was difficult to be the opponent of the green battalion soldiers. This is a contradiction in the first place, especially in terms of mentality, which makes some of them who do not understand military affairs at all despise some of the things that are most valued by Chen Wen and Qi Jiguang, who is Chen Wen's teacher, such as the importance and seriousness of military law.

"Enough!"

After hearing enough about the dispute between his second brother and Jiang Han, a general, Huang Zongxi was really upset. These days, in charge of the affairs of this newly created rebel army, he has only a little experience in leading soldiers, and he is already a head and two big, but he didn't expect that there would be such things today, and his anger broke out immediately.

"Haomu, you are working under the eldest uncle, how can you meddle in military affairs at will. Leave this matter to Jiang Dudu, and you go back to do things. ”

Bombed away his younger brother, Huang Zongxi didn't say anything more to Jiang Han, but just asked him to act according to the military law formulated by everyone's memory of the military law and regulations of the Ming Army in Zhejiang.

In this way, the soldiers below were suppressed for a few days, but unexpectedly, it didn't take long for the violation of military law to come out again.

"What do you say, the people are making a fuss on the mountain?"

In that year, he retreated to Siming Mountain with the remnants of the Shizhong Battalion and stationed in the Xizhu Temple, but because the sergeants stole chickens and dogs and harassed the people, they were set on fire by the mountain people, resulting in the annihilation of the whole army. Huang Zongxi had something to do and had to get out of this catastrophe, but he was afraid of the people in the mountains, and even when the Ming army of Dalan Mountain was in its heyday, he rarely entered the mountain, but Huang Zongyan surrendered to Feng Jingdi's banner.

He rushed to the gate with a group of people, and saw Vance about to instruct the guards to drive people away. Huang Zongxi played the banner of rebuilding the Ming Army of Dalan Mountain, the Ming Army of Dalan Mountain originally had a very good reputation in the Siming Mountain area, and he originally planned to inherit it completely, so that he could speak more vigorously in the face of Chen Wen, so he naturally refused to ruin his reputation.

After waving off the guards guarding the door, Huang Zongxi asked the people about their intentions. After inquiry, I found out that it was a day of rest, and several officers and soldiers went down the mountain to steal a few chickens and sacrifice their teeth, but they were found by the mountain people and chased all the way to the old camp.

"It's him who stole our chickens, and he and him."

"Damn, you said that Lao Tzu ate it, and he came here to bully our Dalan Mountain King Division?!"

was pointed out in public, but the officers and non-commissioned officers ridiculed each other, not at all like the embarrassment of being chased by a group of mountain people just now.

Seeing this, how could Huang Zongxi not understand the doorway here, but he was about to deal with one or two, but he saw Vance and said: "Sir, these strong men are all newly invited by me, and they have all killed people and seen blood, which is enough for the courage of an army. I hope to spare them this time, and I will make it clear to them when the matter is over. ”

"The military law and regulations are too complicated, and it is normal to not be able to remember them for a while, and I ask Mr. Lizhou to forgive one or two."

Vance is a great person who is "good at making friends with virtuous people", and to put it bluntly, he has dealings with some good men in the rivers and lakes. Huang Zongxi can see at a glance how these heroes are, he may have really seen blood, but he may not be good soldiers when he goes into battle, at least under the standards of Qi Jiguang and Chen Wen, he will never want such people.

However, Wanjia and the Huang family are inextricably linked. Huang Zongxi and Wan Tai are both masters of the Donglin Restoration Society, and Wan Tai is more than ten years older than him, but Wan Tai's sixth son Wan Sida and young son Wan Sitong have already worshiped him and are considered his students. And Wan Sicheng, the old man of the Wan family, who came with him, was defeated by the Simingshan coalition army that year, and Huang Zongyan was captured by the Qing army, and robbed the law field with him, and rescued his younger brother with his own hands.

If this matter is Huang Zongyan interceding with him, the eldest brother is like a father, and he can still keep a straight face. But this student has always been obedient, and Wan Sicheng also has a life-saving grace for his younger brother, and he is also interceding on his behalf during this time, which makes Huang Zongxi hesitate.

"This matter will not be pursued for the first offense, and if there is a next time, the two crimes will be punished concurrently."

compensated the mountain people and silver, and Huang Zongxi did not punish the officers and soldiers who committed the crime, but raised it high and gently put it down.

Looking at all this from afar, Jiang Han recalled the harsh punishment for stealing people's property in Chen Wen's military law, and then asked an officer beside him: "Brother Shen, when the loyal martyr was alive, how should this criminal be punished?" ”

The person Jiang Han inquired about was named Shen Jiabao, a person from Ningbo, a descendant of the Shen family in Shiqiao, who was originally a chief of the Ming Army in Dalanshan. Siming Lake escaped the first battle, so he took his own woman to hide in the mountains, relying on the understanding of the terrain, and escaped the two mountain washes in the fourth year of Yongli and the fifth year of Yongli, and the luck can be described as excellent.

Later, I learned that Chen Wen had gained a firm foothold in Jinhua, and once planned to go to work, but his wife was pregnant and failed to leave. This time, Huang Zongxi and others threatened to rebuild the Dalanshan Ming Army, and he defected, because he was an old man of the Dalanshan Ming Army, and he was also quite proficient in martial arts, so he made up for the lack of a guerrilla general under Jiang Han and assisted in the formation and training of more than 300 soldiers.

"If you want to talk about Wang Jingluo, it is also extremely strict in governing the army. Dare to steal the things of the people's homes, at worst it is an arrow parade camp, and the value will be beheaded to show the public if it is a little bit more or less, how can there be such a thing now. ”

Looking at Shen Jiabao's disdainful face, Jiang Han turned to look at the few convicts who were surrounding Vanceda's departure, and couldn't help but sigh.

"This Dalan Mountain King, if he wants to rebuild, it seems that it is just a fool's dream." (To be continued.) )
