Chapter 724: Army Monsters
If you want to say that grabbing the benefits of this thing, the most exciting potential, the original old soldiers in various places, got the order to have to go to the battlefield, first in the opening of the pull out of the difficult to shirk, what the opening fee, burning and burial costs, injury and illness expenses, all kinds of expenses, as long as you are a little worse, you will never move. EΩ .┡
When everything is satisfied, I have to set off, which is comparable to a snail, and I can't wait to go to his place, and if you have to walk thirty miles a day, it is definitely to catch up with the next meal, because the rule of the Ming Dynasty is that the expenses and salaries of the army along the way are responsible for the states and counties through which you pass, you have gone over, they don't care, you haven't arrived at the place, they don't care. I think that during the Battle of Gyeonggi, Shanxi's rescue army was like this, it was transferred for three days and five times, and it starved for five days in a row, and as a result, the army mutinied and dispersed, so it also took in a Shanxi governor and a Shanxi general soldier.
But this time the situation is very different, no matter where the team comes out, as soon as they receive the order to look forward to the stars and the moon down, they immediately throw away all the rags, and run north like a burning butt, the daily journey of fifty miles is absolutely not a problem, sometimes the daily record marching distance of 1oo miles is reached, and there is no complaint, and these soldiers along the way have no heart to harass various states and counties, so that the people of the entire Ming Dynasty are simply not adaptable. Could it be that the entire army of the Ming Dynasty has suddenly been reborn? Have they all become the people's soldiers in an instant?
Pan Jianxing is also one of these old soldiers, he is the garrison of Hebei, but he magnificently took the order of the Nanzhili (Nanjing) Military Department, and rushed to Liaoxi with confidence.
And the new Qianhu Pan Jianxing of this army, is the son of the left servant of the ministry, who was originally a ruffian hooligan, and reading is simply a chore for him, and fighting and brawling is not a proper job, but he is sad about his father.
In the Ming Dynasty, everyone is doing it at this time, but there is a premise, that is, if you want to be a civil official, it is even more difficult, because the Ming Dynasty has been raising scholars for three hundred years, and the literary voice is prosperous.
And what is the purpose of these painstaking and advanced people? Isn't it an official to be an official, just the so-called learning and excellence?
But that era is not like this era, now at best, the social functions are more and more detailed, in fact, the bureaucracy is huge and bloated, in order to arrange for your children to be officials, you can drum up a bureau in one day, the most unfortunate is still an inexplicable office, the headquarters, and the children will be justified to get a deputy department to do it.
At that time, it was not possible, the organization was just the organization, the post was the post, and it was absolutely impossible to come out.
Another point is also crucial, although the Ming Dynasty implemented the virtual monarch system, but this system is not perfect and not thorough, the emperor of the appointment of officials can be tightly grasped, no matter what officials are selected by the cabinet of the Ministry of Officials, even if it is a small county, the emperor must agree, for example, Wanli of the Ming Dynasty has disputed with the cabinet for more than ten years because of the establishment of the prince, and finally simply did not go out of the palace for 30 years, ignore the government, do not suburb, do not temple, do not court, do not see, do not approve, do not speak. The courtiers were no longer received, and the cabinet appeared the phenomenon of "people staying behind the officials" and "Cao Offices being long and empty". What do you mean? That is to say, many official positions in the Ming Dynasty were not done, so that the government was almost suspended, not because they did not do it, but because the emperor could not do it without approval.
On the one hand, there is a scarcity of official positions, and on the other hand, there is a civil service jam, so if you want to be an official after the first promotion, then you have to wait, so even if you are an important position in the left servant of the ministry, you don't dare to take the risk of being stared at by countless red-eyed people, and make a son who is not even a child a civil official, and can only hang the name of a small official in Shuntian Mansion, which belongs to the category of self-support.
It is difficult to be a civil official, but it is easy to be a military general, but in that era of serious emphasis on civil affairs and light on military force, everyone would rather be idle at home than do that shameful profession.
But this time it was different, this time it was to Liaoxi, so his Lao Tzu took advantage of this opportunity to seek a military attache for him, and directly made a thousand households, and then implored the Nanjing Military Department to issue him an order, which was directly assigned to the sequence of the Liao Army, hoping to get a military merit under Lu Hanqiang, and then be promoted and transferred, after all, Lao Tzu is an official of the Ministry of Officials, as long as the military merit is in hand, isn't it still like a joke to transfer from a military general to a civilian official? In this way, you will have the opportunity to advance to the official career, and you can glorify your ancestors.
And the soldiers brought by Pan Jianxing are almost all the children of the Pan family's clan, as well as the children of the seven aunts and eight aunts, and even the tenant servants of the family, anyway, they are all blood-red, ready to fish out military merits under Lu Hanqiang's hands, and then live the rest of their lives with glory and wealth.
Pan Jianxing's team not only has soldiers, but also brings nurses, mothers-in-law and concubines, and even Yingying Yanyan sings and laughs all the way.
Before leaving, this Donglin Zuo Shilang, in the secret room, was very close to his son, who was about to go to Lu Hanqiang's side, and he had a fate, so with the vision of being promoted to military merit, and with Donglin's ulterior and arduous mission, Pan Jianxing set off with a mighty team.
In this way, I hurried all the way, and on the way, I gathered five armies that rushed to Liaoxi, and reported to each other, they were all brothers and brothers, what squire's son, Shangshu's grandson, the brother of a certain prefect, and there was even an old man who walked swaying and stood with a maid to support, and after a careful investigation, this guy turned out to be the father of a small patrol mansion, and he also wanted to kill the enemy for his son, and he also wanted to earn military merits for the glory after death.
However, everyone is not surprised, and they all know that they went, but they went to lead the army with military salaries and blessings, so the six roads of people and horses were combined into one road, of course, the officials were the largest, and this group of people and horses pushed Pan Jianxing to be the leader, so this mighty army came to the east and directly killed Shanhaiguan.
When the soldiers crossed the Shanhaiguan, Sun Chengzong sat on the head of the city, looking at the tourist army with an angry face, constantly banging on the battlements with his fists, and bursts of sadness and desolation came to his heart, but he was helpless.
By the time Pan Jianxing flew all the way to Liaoxi, the whole team was as tired as a dog.
As soon as he entered Beizhen, Pan Jianxing took the other five military leaders and immediately rushed directly into Lu Hanqiang's line with the order of the military department.
As a result, this Pan Jianxing didn't see it, and directly threw the order of the military department on Lu Hanqiang's table, and then unceremoniously pulled over a chair, sat on it crookedly, looked left and right, and commanded Wang Jian, who was wearing ordinary soldier clothes: "Hurry up all the way, don't you want to go into battle for you to kill the enemy?" Grandpa is very thirsty here, so he brought water to him. ”
At this time, Wang Jian looked at Lu Hanqiang.
