Chapter 18 is mighty

The rooster Fang Ming, Zheng Zhi has already gotten up, after today's o'clock, this Zheng Zhi will really have to take charge of the training of the hundred people under him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zheng Zhi, standing on a small platform, looked at the hundred or so soldiers under him, and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, the biggest official in his previous life was a squad leader, and he was the seventh or eighth person, at this time when he came to the Great Song Dynasty, he was mixed with a battalion commander-level officer in a blink of an eye, and he was still a little happy in his heart.

These soldiers have tattoos on their faces, it is not accurate to say that they are tattoos, everyone has a tattoo on their faces, which is called a black face, and it is also a must tattoo for soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is also a way to prevent soldiers from escaping.

In the Great Song Dynasty, those who served as soldiers were all for life, and recruiting soldiers was also called recruiting assassins, and when they became soldiers, they had to tattoo words on their faces, even if they were generals like Di Qing, they had already become privy deputy envoys, that is, deputy ministers of defense, and they also had such tattoos on their faces.

However, Zheng Zhi does not need to be tattooed, and there are exceptions, that is, those who are used in front of the military tent do not need to tattoo. The person who was used was a helper or other talent recruited by the army. Only those who really started as small soldiers will be tattooed.

Of course, there were still some people in the Great Song Dynasty who would tattoo words on their faces, and that was a prisoner. It can be seen that the soldiers of the Song Dynasty are really not welcomed, but it is okay in the northwest, but they go to the south, and this soldier is basically treated with crime. A thief with an army scolds the soldier.

"It won't be long before several provinces of the Western Army want colonels. This time the small kind of Xianggong is extremely important, and we must not let Xianggong fold his face. Zheng Zhi set the tone, but also to give a solid backing for what he wants to do next.

"I must fight for face for the Prime Minister."

"We will do our best to live up to the grace of our lords."

The officers below expressed their own opinions, and this sentence is also true, these soldiers can have a pretty good life, and it is also because the master loves soldiers like children, and he has never been a little harsh, and the money earned by a soldier is enough to marry a wife and have children in this Weizhou City.

If it were placed somewhere else, it would be good if a soldier could eat by himself. It was in Bianliang City that the soldiers of the forbidden army also had to give free labor to Shangguan to earn money. This thing is what Gao Taiwei did, as the prefect of the Privy Council, recruited only craftsmen, and specialized in making money for this Gao Taiwei. The subordinates and servants in this Gao Taiwei's family are all the men of the forbidden army.

"Okay, from today onwards, we will practice two things, one is the queue and the other is the way of riding and archery." Zheng Zhi also briefly talked about the things he planned in his heart.

In his previous life, Zheng Zhi read a lot of books about war in the army, and needless to say, this is the foundation of discipline and obedience in the army. It is also the foundation of maintaining a basic unity formation on the basis of warfare in this era of cold weapons.

Not to mention mounted archery, which was the only thing the Mongols relied on to fight their invincible opponents all over the world. This riding archery sounds simple, but it is not simple, one is to be qualified in archery, the second is to learn to detour and keep a distance, riding is only the basic, experience is extremely important, keep a good distance from the enemy, whether the enemy attacks or retreats, this distance is to be maintained, not near or far, this is the biggest challenge for the commander.

The development of bows and crossbows in the Song Dynasty has reached the highest in all dynasties, and the Song people relied on extremely developed bow and crossbow technology to resist the Mongols for decades. The Divine Arm Bow is also the best bow of the Northern Song Dynasty army, and it should also be the strongest bow in the world during the same period. It basically takes two or three years for a god arm bow to be made from the beginning to the completion.

However, in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the art of mounted archery had not yet been formed, and even the Mongolian ancestors on the steppe had not really formed this tactic. But it was used by Zheng Zhi first, and it was also the right time and place, and the entire Northern Song Dynasty had 4,000 war horses under this kind of master.

The queue training officially began, and the Song Dynasty also had a queue in the army, of course, it was too different from the queue training in later generations, and basically only required the soldiers to be neatly arranged in the battle array.

The queue of Zheng Zhi's training was completely required according to the military queue of later generations.

"Lao Hu, you are thirty years old, and you can't tell the difference between left and right. Turn left, that's left... ”

"Yu Dali, are you stupid, do you know if you look to the right? Are you two going to kiss face to face? ”

Zheng Zhi began to train, only to know that many of these Song people couldn't even tell the difference between left and right. But most of them can distinguish between southeast and northwest without looking at the sun. This is also a big oddity.

"Stand upright, don't move... Zheng Zhi held a tree stick, looked at the hundreds of people below, patrolling left and right, if anyone's hands were not straightened, his chest was not straightened, and his legs were not together, the tree bar would be drawn to whom. What this military posture cares about is the spirit of this high-chested army, and the spirit of a troop is the basic.

The morning had passed, and the people went back to their tents to wait for lunch.

The officers sat at the same table with Zheng Zhi, most of them were bored eating, but it was Lao Hu and Yu Dali who wanted to say something, and they wanted to say and stopped.

Zheng Zhi also saw it in his eyes, and asked, "Old Hu, you two can say whatever you want to say." ”

"That... All heads. The colonel, I also know, but what does this queue have to do with the colonel? Although this old Hu had doubts in his heart, the tone of his question was also quite polite. Obviously, Zheng Zhi's prestige has been basically established.

"You don't need to ask more, and practice, after you practice, you will know what the effect is, if you practice well, a good meal of wine in Panjia Restaurant is indispensable, if you don't practice well, see how I clean you up." Zheng Zhi is also both soft and hard, the temptation of a meal in this Pan family restaurant is really big, although these soldiers have a good income, but they can't afford to consume the banquet in this Pan family restaurant.

"Yes, yes, yes. The head of the capital is a talk. "A man like Lao Hu doesn't care about fatigue, and ordinary people in this era don't take fatigue seriously.

"If you also practice the art of riding and archery, I will also give you a voucher for Wanda Shopping Mall." Zheng Zhi is also generous, he also knows that there is no point in explaining what spirit and spirit are now, and the temptation comes quickly. Zheng Zhi doesn't care about this little money, and the standard of loving soldiers like children in this era is also very simple for Zheng Zhi.

Lao Hu was even more happy when he heard this, and stood up and shouted: "Everyone listen, they all said, if you practice the queue and riding and archery well this time, Panjia Restaurant will have a good drink, and one person will give a voucher for Wanda Shopping Mall." ”

"Thank you."

"All heads are mighty."

The sound of sycophants came and went, Zheng Zhi also laughed when he heard it, although these soldiers were very brave in the battle array, they were also really simple, Zheng Zhi couldn't help but laugh in his heart, I don't know how many years I haven't seen such a simple man.
