Cha Yongzhang stood up slowly, glanced at the ribs that should have been bleeding suspiciously, and found that his body was intact, and couldn't help but look at Kang Ning with stunned eyes.

Kangning waved his hand and said, "Don't look at me, close your eyes, what you want to know is already in your mind." ”

Cha Yongzhang is an atheist, and he doesn't believe in such strange things, but there seems to be a force in the dark that controls his body to do what Kangning wants.

He sat down on the ground in doubt, closed his eyes and searched his mind.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and the surprise in his gaze did not disappear, but became more intense.

But this time it was different, and instead of being surprised by ignorance before, this time his surprise came from the unbelievable facts.

"What are you kidding? Earth will become an alien colony in the future, and you are the one who has been ordered to travel back in time to the ancient times and try to change the fate of all mankind. ”

Corning grabbed him by the shoulders and said in a calm and powerful voice, "I know you're an atheist, but there's a scientific explanation for all of this. On the other hand, it's because you're an atheist that it's easier to find logic to believe these things. ”

Che Yongzhang trembled a few times, as if he imagined the tragedy of the Earth colony, just like when Kang Ning first learned about these things.

"I you!"

Hearing this, Kangning smiled happily.

When the two turned around, Lou Jiude was no longer the arrogant person. And the generals who still wanted to see the excitement were even more obedient at the moment.

"That's what efficiency looks like." Corning said, "I really don't know where you got so much infighting? ”

Although Cha Yongzhang was reincarnated, his personality has not changed at all. I just heard him say sarcastically: "Debating the nation and fighting the nation." It's normal. ”

Corning blinked slightly dissatisfied, but this kind of self-criticism has always been lacking in traditional Confucianism. So he changed his words and said, "That's what I said." But we don't get involved in this kind of infighting. You analyze it for them. The past and present of the Ming Dynasty guard. ”

So everyone returned to their seats and listened to Che Yongzhang tell the story of Nawei's system.

The reason why Corning did not appear in person was naturally because he saw through the identity of Che Yongzhang's traverser from the pulley bow. Although it was a last resort to subdue him in this way. But Kangning Dao is a good solution to the problem raised by Fu Wang Zhu Changxun, how to choose friends for traversers.

Since he is a traverser, he has the same understanding and perspective on many things. And the reincarnated person's loyalty is enough to ensure that he can be trusted. Future. Cha Yongzhang must be one of the pillars of the empire.

And the concept and vision shown by Che Yongzhang did not disappoint him.

I only heard him talk eloquently: "The system of the guard is a specialized tuntian system. The Qin and Han dynasties immigrated to Shibian with the aim of increasing military strength and keeping the enemy out of the country. Objectively, it has also left the imprint of Han culture in remote areas. Later, financial considerations outweighed military roles. During the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao tuntian, the focus was on harvesting grain. And it doesn't matter if you don't have to pay for transporting grain to the frontier. In the early years of this dynasty, Taizu wanted to emulate the old system of the Qin and Han dynasties, but it was not easy to raise soldiers, and later gradually implemented tuntian in the interior. It is required to meet the requirements of self-sufficiency. Taizu once boasted that raising a million soldiers would not cost the people a grain of rice. ”

"Taizu's ideas undoubtedly have his limitations." Che Yongzhang criticized without hesitation, but unexpectedly did not arouse Lou Jiude's opposition. He glanced at the latter. I found that he was still nodding secretly. This made him a little incomprehensible, so he looked at Corning. But Kang Ning's facial expression clearly said: "Lou Jiude's behavior is normal. ”

Che Yongzhang put away his doubts and continued: "Taizu didn't think about the increase in the light population at all. At that time, the Central Plains was fighting for many years, and the land was seriously abandoned. Naturally, there is no problem in taking out a part of it for feeding the soldiers. But later, the land at that time could no longer feed the more and more descendants of the soldiers. Finally someone found another way to make a living. I saw the outside world of the closed and conservative health system. Thereupon. More people began to flee, looking for a more suitable livelihood for them, and even the official guards joined the ranks. Because at that time, land annexation intensified. The land of the health center, which is state-owned land, is often quietly sold. This led to the shaking of the foundations on which the soldiers depended. Plus the officers enslaved the soldiers and their families to farm for them. This caused extremely serious discontent and accelerated the escape. ”

"As a result of the exodus, the number of people on the staff and the amount of food that can be collected have been greatly reduced. During the Jiajing period, the Huguang Baoqing Guard Station fled from the original quota of 5,600 people to only 1,330 people. The grain of Datong was reduced from the original amount of 500,000 stone to 100,000 stone. At the same time, however, the development of commerce and trade since Jiajing has provided a chance for more non-agricultural people to survive. In other words, the entire Ming Dynasty could absorb more fugitive guards, rather than prevent them from leaving the guards. ”

Against this background, the combat effectiveness of the guards plummeted. When it came to the border of the Japanese invaders and I agreed to join the Kou, the entire Ming Dynasty had to use the conscription system to temporarily recruit soldiers. In fact, if the financial system of the Ming Dynasty is not reformed, the conscription system will end sooner or later. However, until now, the conscription system can still be used, and even the excellent people from the soldiers of the guard post have begun to be recruited, and the change of direction has accelerated the collapse of the guard system. ”

Since then, the imperial court has relied on recruitment as the main force. The health center system only leaves a false name and does not use it. Since then, they have become a group of professional farmers in tattered military uniforms. ”

"I can't get the policy tilt of the imperial court. The livelihood of the guards is even more difficult. Once there is a stir, there will be a possibility of unraveling. Although the number of births is small, the real threat is not great. However, the rebellion of the officials and soldiers of the imperial court greatly boosted the morale of the rebels, which was the most unfavorable for us. ”

Corning nodded in agreement with Cha's view. Although Li Chunfang's army had expanded to 100,000 after receiving the help of this group of guards and their families, most of them were local believers, not guards.

Li Chunfang's purpose in releasing the rumor was just to advocate momentum and take the opportunity to tell the believers. The imperial court was already unpopular.

Let Che Yongzhang analyze it like this, many people have understood Li Chunfang's intentions, and they are no longer afraid of the seemingly huge number of "100,000".

Kang Ning was also secretly glad in his heart that this Che Yongzhang really had a set. Although there may not always be a charter, there are people who often make charters. It's easier to see through the enemy's charter.

Based on this idea, Kang Ning suggested: "Brother Che, I might as well introduce to you the situation of the health centers in my Shandong, especially the characteristics of geographical distribution. ”

Cha Yongzhang blinked, wondering why Corning asked him to explain these things. The area where they are fighting now is basically limited to Laizhou Mansion, so why should they involve the entire Shandong Guard.

So Che Yongzhang glanced at Kang Ning, trying to find the reason for his doubts in his eyes, but Kang Ning's eyes were closed. An old monk's settled look. I really can't see that this is the young talent who had a verbal argument with Lou Jiude just now, and then killed decisively.

In desperation, Che Yongzhang turned around and talked to himself.

"My Shandong Guardhouse, although it is not as dense as the borderlands. But after all, it used to be a place of coastal defense, and the coastal guards should still be paid attention to. Each of these guards had its own walled city. There are acropolises, all the cities. Even the general and small flags below have their own forts. In terms of the characteristics of geographical distribution. These cities and fortresses, in order to achieve the purpose of defense, generally have the following characteristics in terms of site selection. According to the high, according to the risk, the sea control, accessibility. Therefore, the enemy we are going to face has a very strong base camp. If we attack rashly, I'm afraid. It's going to be a fierce battle. ”

Kang Ning nodded with satisfaction, even though Che Yongzhang only gave a brief introduction, and there were many things he wanted to hear, but Che Yongzhang's speech said the key point of today's matter.

"Hit. It's going to be hung up and beaten. Frequent harassment of them, so that they can not hide in the castle in peace. At the same time, heavy firepower weapons must also be brought up to make their appearance, so that they cannot rest in the castle. You might as well use the two options together, I just want to see what they want to do after all. ”

Once the plan was agreed, the commanders returned to their ranks. The allied forces of the three governments began to attack centripetally, gradually narrowing the encirclement of Li Chunfang's department.

A super-large-scale peasant battle was held in the direction of the Red Lotus Sect, and hundreds of thousands of people rolled around in the dust, but after a battle, neither side was killed. The vast majority are only minor injuries. The Red Lotus Sect members who simply covered their bodies with iron sheets on their abdomen and back did not have serious injuries directly, while Li Chunfang's department, which had relatively poor protective equipment, paid the price of many serious injuries and inevitably fell into disability.

Although the offensive of the Qingzhou regimental training was restrained by various factors, such as physical fatigue and the slow march of the brother troops, it still fought several beautiful battles. Originally, they relied on the advantage of equipment to achieve successive victories in the past period of time, and now, even if the already low combat effectiveness has lost the guarantee of physical fitness, the killer weapon for survival is still there, and the speed recommended forward is guaranteed.

Lou Jiude now finally knows why this regimental training is an army that also has a presence in the emperor. Such an excellent performance, even if you don't want Jane to be in the emperor's heart, it will be difficult to do.

Among the three government coalition forces, only Che Yongzhang's progress in the direction is the most interesting. Originally, he couldn't even equip the five hundred people under his command with a new type of bow and crossbow, but after Kang Ning turned those generals in Dengzhou Mansion into reincarnateds, they suddenly became united, providing Che Yongzhang with a lot of methods.

Among them, some people stole the treasury of the Dengzhou Haiphong Yamen at night and got a lot of materials for making bows and arrows. So they didn't attack at first, but stopped where they were to make bows and arrows.

Fortunately, these raw materials have been pre-treated, and all they have to do is assemble them. Che Yongzhang's subordinates, probably because of Zhu Zhechi, showed their abilities one by one, just like skilled craftsmen. Soon, they had a sufficient number of bows and arrows to participate in new battles.

Aoshanwei, Dasongwei, and Xiongyasu are all important guards in Dengzhou and Laizhou, although most of the officers and soldiers have fled, but the number of people who joined Li Chunfang's gang in this rebellion is not small.

Some of them used to be Luo Zujiao, and even directly became followers of Wang Sen, while the other part was struggling to make a living for a long time, and under the temptation of food and gold, they followed Li Chunfang to embark on the road of no return to rebellion.

Of course, whatever the reason, they were extremely disappointed with the current imperial court, otherwise, according to the good temperament of the Chinese people who were easy to govern, they would not have rebelled.

But it doesn't matter if it's a rebellion, when they appeared in front of Che Yongzhang, Che Yongzhang knew that the foundation of the Ming Dynasty had begun to shake. It's just that the first ants are destined to be wiped out by the guardians of the forest. They will be a big part of the Guardians' books. But this also means that the imperial court, which has made them lose hope in life, has begun to move towards the abyss of destruction.

Because it won't be long before the Guardians become the vanguard of the cutting down of this great forest.

Che Yongzhang picked up a bowl of wine, faced the guards who rushed towards them, and slowly sprinkled it.

This is the court of those who have not yet become heroic spirits at what point, and they are also the court that are already destined to become heroic spirits at what point.

"I hope all is well."

After saying this, Che Yongzhang slowly closed his eyes. The inspectors who have followed him for a long time know that this is because Che Yongzhang does not want to see too tragic killings. In fact, Corning also has this problem, but not many people notice.

Of course, for subordinates, when the leader closes his eyes and is compassionate, it is the time when they open up the world and make the leader's compassion full of meaning.

As a result, the archers on the Dengzhou side began to take advantage of the range advantage and beat the guards.

The only advantage that a group of peasants who have just entered the battlefield over their peers is that their ancestors have glorious stories that can be used to brag in front of others and give themselves courage on the way to reunion.

But being brave doesn't mean being good at fighting. Their ability to dodge bows and arrows obviously has a lot of room for improvement, just like the strength of Chinese football, the future is brilliant, but there is no brilliance at first, only rotten.

Che Yongzhang opened his eyes and enjoyed the military performance of this group of professional farmers. He is now wondering if you can't suppress your anger and rush up in a group, or will I fight steadily, eat away step by step, and finally eat you.

Choose, professional farmers in tattered uniforms! (To be continued.) )
