Chapter 510 Chop! Chop! Chop!
Zheng Zhi came back this time, it is to start the reorganization of the Hebei Forbidden Army, and now there are 100,000 soldiers and horses gathered in Hejian Mansion, including the old and the weak, there are real registered soldiers, and there are many people.
Such an army went north, Zheng Zhi obviously knew what the result would be, not to mention going into battle to kill the enemy, and it didn't even bring many hidden dangers, if it was really like in history, the vast majority of the army was defeated thousands of miles as soon as it was engaged, it was really an unimaginable thing.
In history, several parts of the Western Army also participated in the battle of Liao, and there were not a few who were dragged down by these rabble. Even if the seed division dies in battle, there are more or less reasons for these delays. There is also the defeat of Liu Yanqing on Yongxing Road of the Western Army, although it is related to its own suspicious and cautious and even timid, it is also dragged down by these rabble, and the rout of the 100,000 army, where can a main general stop it.
Not to mention that a few Western armies can turn the tide in a full-scale war between the two countries.
Zheng Zhi returned to the camp, sat firmly in the handsome position, and the wine banquet in the army was complete.
Zheng Zhi carried the wine bowl continuously, fortunately, his identity was here, and he didn't need to drink too much. But in my heart, I was thinking about things.
After everyone stepped forward to salute, Zheng Zhi put down the wine bowl, raised his hand to press it, and signaled everyone to silence before speaking: "Today, all the generals are gathered here, and they must all know that the beginning of spring next year is the time of the Northern Expedition. Heshuo has not heard of war for a hundred years, and now that the war is now, are you all ready? ”
As soon as Zheng Zhi asked, the big tent that was originally full of laughter immediately became serious, and there was a lack of spirit in the seriousness. Although most of these generals here are children of military generals, few of them have really fought a war, and even if they have fought, they have only suppressed some mountain bandits.
Not to mention the people here, it is the parents and grandparents of these people, who have not really fought for several generations.
After Zheng Zhi spoke, he looked up at everyone, but no one raised his head to look at Zheng Zhi. Zheng Zhi shook his head and said again: "The army is about to die on the battlefield, you have the heart to die." ”
Speaking of the word death, everyone present lowered their heads slightly, looking at their noses and noses. If others come to ask, there may be many people here who want to talk eloquently.
But there is this Zheng Xianggong sitting in front of him, with a murderous aura in his words, everyone knows that this Zheng Xianggong is not a person who can prevaricate at will, if he speaks easily, he is afraid that it will backfire, and when the time comes, he will arrange to be a pioneer or something, that is, he will find his own death.
Hu Yanzhuo saw that everyone didn't speak, stood up, and said: "Xianggong is in front of him, and the last general will dare to die!" ”
Zheng Zhi nodded, raised his hand and motioned for Hu Yanzhuo to sit down, the general Hu Yan in front of him had followed Zheng Zhi to the battle array, and Zheng Zhi also knew it in his heart.
Zheng Zhi raised his eyes and looked left and right, but his eyes paused for a moment on the two acquaintances, one with two spears and Dong Ping, and the other without feathers and arrows Zhang Qing.
The two of them actually hesitated in their hearts, unwilling to be the first bird, but after feeling Zheng Zhi's paused eyes, they also stood up. I only heard Dong Ping say in his mouth: "Prime minister, the last general dares to fight!" ”
Zhang Qing also frowned and said, "The last general also dares to go into battle." ”
Zheng Zhi nodded again and said: "You are all a master general, the big war is imminent, if you want to save your life, listen to a certain order, the master will be cowardly, behead on the spot." Those who stand cowardly in battle, don't say anything about beheading, and raid their homes to fill the army. Do you understand? ”
It was the first time Zheng Zhi had said these words in front of these people, and it was already a pre-war military order.
I only heard everyone present, and I replied sparsely: "I understand." ”
Only Hu Yanzhuo, Dong Ping, and Zhang Qing spoke louder, and the others were all weak, and most of them were still thinking about the battle scene in their hearts, facing thoughts such as life and death.
Zheng Zhi didn't say much, stood up, and looked left and right.
Everyone stood up, even Huang Qianshan also stood up, Huang Qianshan looked like watching a play, and the war had nothing to do with him, so naturally it was none of his business.
After everyone stood up, Zheng Zhi spoke: "All those who are over thirty-five years old and under the age of fifteen in the army will be sent back to their hometowns. Three days later, the reorganization was carried out, and all the officers and soldiers of the state capital were disorganized and reorganized, and all the generals were reappointed. You are not allowed to leave without permission in the army, and those who leave without permission will be punished as deserters and beheaded! ”
After Zheng Zhi spoke, he had already said several beheadings, and each time he said that he was so slaughtered and exposed, and some people were already trembling with fear. As if he was going to be beheaded for anything, apparently everyone still remembered how Wang Hao's cousin was beheaded with a knife on the platform.
"Obey the Prime Minister's military orders!" The crowd also replied sparsely.
Zheng Zhi's method of reorganizing also indirectly deprived these commanders of their military power, and after the reorganization, all the soldiers in the state capital were disrupted, and the generals had to be reappointed, and Zheng Zhi was not at ease with these people.
Although it is said that in the era of cold weapons, it is taboo for soldiers not to know generals and generals, it is better than when the main general takes the lead in escaping when the war starts. As long as the main general does not take the lead in escaping, but takes the lead in killing the enemy, Zheng Zhi can accept other uncontrollable things to some extent.
Zheng Zhi saw that everyone had weak words one by one, and he felt powerless in his heart, so he had to do his best again, and said: "There is no other demand for you, there is only one thing that needs to be clarified, but those who are afraid of war, but those who escape, behead!" If the general commits a crime, he will be beheaded on the spot, and the whole family will be charged to the front line. When the military order arrives, those who do not obey the military order will be immediately killed! ”
Zheng Zhi emphasized again, that is, thinking that the nearly 100,000 Heshuo forbidden troops should not really become a burden, and should not really drag their feet, but also play a little role.
It was originally a celebratory feast, but it has changed, and everyone no longer has the smiling faces they used to have, nor the words of flattery, and most of them are pale and worried.
Some people are already thinking of finding a relationship to transfer out of Hejian Mansion, and the Zheng Xianggong in front of him is too terrifying. Between the words, he slashed back and forth, causing many people to panic.
At this time, Zheng Zhi raised the wine bowl, raised it to his chest, glanced at everyone with sharp eyes, and said again: "This bowl is the last bowl of tonight, everyone is full, I wish you a great victory in the spring, and you can all be added to the ranks." ”
No one answered, only the sound of pouring wine.
Zheng Zhi took the lead in drinking it all, and then everyone also drank a full bowl.
Huang Qianshan took a few sips, and finally drank a bowl of spirits. Seeing that Zheng Zhi sat down again, began to eat, his face softened a lot, and he said with a smile: "Zheng Xianggong's methods of governing the army are very good, and the lower officials admire them." ”
Zheng Zhi glanced at Huang Qianshan's smiling face, and only said: "Hejian Mansion should cooperate with the war, and there must be no mistakes in any errand. ”
Huang Qianshan was stunned when he heard this, and nodded again and again to answer yes.
The matter of war is not trivial, and it is no longer the time to laugh at this time, whether it is deterrence or intimidation, Zheng Zhi must also ensure that nothing goes wrong, Hejian Mansion does not seem to have a direct relationship with the war, but logistics such as grain and grass transfer, this Hejian Mansion must fully cooperate, and there must be no mistakes.
If you don't intimidate this Huang Qianshan, Zheng Zhizhen is a little worried, Huang Qianshan is a person who understands current affairs, and he should also know a priority.
Zheng Zhi said that he wanted to kill someone, no matter whether Zheng Zhiming had all his strength to kill a prefect on his face, this Huang Qianshan had no reason to believe it in his heart. I'm really afraid that this Zheng Xianggong will hang his head on the city wall in anger.
The feast is a good feast, but for most people, it is not happy.
Zheng Zhi couldn't control a lot, after the banquet, a list of hundreds of people appeared on Zheng Zhi's case, there were men in the Western Army, there were also generals in the forbidden army, and even the men under Wang Yu were among them.
Zheng Zhi took the brush and circled the names one by one. It is to arrange a military general after the reorganization. There were just a few dozen people in the tent, and most of them were really unreliable. can only be raised in the camp after seizing military power, and these people are lucky to really escape with their lives.
He lost his authority for a while, but he saved his life. It's worth it.
The reorganization should be done sooner rather than later, this is why Zheng Zhi immediately ordered it to be done as soon as he returned to Hejian, and the new military general should also have a familiar process with his subordinates, at least he must be able to effectively command and move.
There is also the problem of drills, no matter how they drill in front of the head, the forbidden troops of various state capitals seem to be arranging troops on the school field, but most of them are only in the yang and yin, up to the chief officer, down to the sergeants, and there are few who really work hard. This time, when the chief officer was trusted, it was natural to really carry out drills, at least to line up in line before the battle, and to know that he would go backwards when he heard the order, rather than collapse at the touch of a button.
Early in the morning of the second day, at the gate of the barracks, countless iron armor guarded the door.
In the army, the old and weak soldiers, those under the age of 15 and those over the age of 35, can receive a small stamped note and go out of the camp to return to their hometowns.
These ironclad men were checking the notes in the hands of these people. Many old and weak soldiers lined up, and the ironclad guards were extremely strict.
By the evening of the afternoon, thousands of people had already gone out of the barracks gate.
The sun was about to set, and today's errand was about to end, when I suddenly heard a northwest accent shouting: "Come on, tie this guy up, and send it to the big tent to listen to the fate of the prime minister." ”
A few iron-clad men pressed one of them to the snow like a wolf and tied it with ropes from the left and right.
"The little one is wronged, the little one is indeed only thirteen this year, but he looks younger, and he asks the general to let the little one go." The soldier who was pressed to the ground kept struggling, shouting loudly.
I only heard the iron armor shouting: "Look at you are almost thirty, and you are still pretending to be thirteen, don't you think that Bendu is blind and can't run away from the battle, in Qin Feng is knife is head broken, Lao Tzu is not killing you is your luck, dare to say more, cut you with a knife." ”
The man hurriedly closed his mouth in fright, stopped talking, and let the military man tie him up, probably still relying on a little bit in his heart.
Zheng Zhi was beside the big tent stove at this time, processing official documents while roasting the fire. Suddenly, I picked up a copy from among the many official documents, looked at it for a while, and immediately became furious, and the official documents were sent from the southern Shenzhou of Hejian Prefecture, and they had just arrived in the evening. There is only one content, that is, the prefect of Shenzhou intercedes for the Shenzhou soldiers and horses, and asks Zheng Zhi to put the Shenzhou soldiers and horses back to wear linen and filial piety.
Zheng Zhi stood up and shouted loudly: "Come on, call Xia Dezhang, the commander of the Shenzhou soldiers and horses!" ”
Zheng Zhi tried his best to win the Spring War, but there were also people who tried every means not to go into battle, where Zheng Zhi was not angry in his heart, where could he endure it.
