Chapter Twenty-Nine: The New Law Trains the Army, the Dragon and Tiger Legion

"Your Majesty, what is this?"

Seeing that the hundred and ten baskets brought up were all covered with curtains, Lu Xiangsheng was a little puzzled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"This is a great gift from me to reorganize the new army, why don't you uncover it?"

Zhu Jian smiled and said.

Hearing what Zhu Jian said, Lu Xiangsheng was not polite, but he stepped forward to uncover one of the baskets, wanting to take a look, but the scene in front of him made him obviously stunned.

What's happening in front of you? Unexpectedly, the famous prefect was so surprised, in fact, there was nothing else in this basket, just some clothes, but these clothes were never seen in Lu Xiangsheng's eyes.

It turned out that these clothes were cotton military coats made by Zhu Jian according to the memories of his previous life, which did not use the traditional placket of the Ming Dynasty, but used copper buttons, a cooked cowhide belt tied around the waist, and the lower body was not a traditional dress of the Ming Dynasty, but cotton trousers.

And these clothes were all dyed earthy yellow, which was due to Zhu Jian's consideration that the newly formed army was mainly used for northern operations, and dyed the color of earthy yellow was just suitable for the geographical environment of the north.

"Jiandou, uncover another basket and take a look!"

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was still a little hesitant, Zhu Jian continued with a smile.

"This is?!"

And when Lu Xiangsheng uncovered another basket, the thing in front of him surprised him even more, but he didn't close his mouth for a long time.

"Jiandou, this thing is the method that I heard by Western missionaries by chance, and I want to combine it with many boots of my Ming Dynasty, learn from each other's strengths, so this thing is made of raw cowhide, and the sole of the boots is made of rubber structure that I took from the West, but it is durable, and extremely warm, but it is the first choice for marching and fighting, and these helmets, I have also slightly modified ...... them."

Although Zhu Jian was talking eloquently on the side, he knew that these things were all from the memories of his previous life, and those words were just words.

Cowhide boots are divided into two kinds, one is the general's boots, and the other is the short boots of ordinary soldiers, plus bandages, of course, these military boots are not completely adopted from the military boots of later generations, at least for officers, they do not use the pointed leather boots of later generations, but all use the style of big heads, this is because in Zhu Jian's view, those pointed boots can be used as a vase, but they are not good for fighting.

As for the helmet, Zhu Jian changed the model of the Daming pot helmet, but took the later German army M40 as the blueprint, deleted the complex and simplified, and then also removed the original decorative halberd and red tassel on the head, and the material of the steel helmet is forged with 100 steel, but it is a first-class product, but on one side of the steel helmet, it is engraved with a strong and powerful seal script "Daming Dragon and Tiger" four big characters.

"Jiandou, why don't you give it a try!"

Hearing Zhu Jian's words, Lu Xiangsheng thanked him.

"Your Majesty, it's better to be respectful than to obey your orders."

After that, he took off the placket of his body, and took the clothes handed over by the soldier next to him, but put them on his body.

In fact, for the Ming Dynasty, the whole country is more active, not only the business in the country has become a common practice, and since the opening of Longqing, scholars and doctors are more fashionable to communicate with Western missionaries, so the Ming Dynasty is not shackled in the bones, because of this, Lu Xiangsheng is so willing to accept new things.

"Wrong, wrong, wrong."

But he said that Lu Xiangsheng put his clothes straight on his body, but he was unreasonable for a long time, but Zhu Jian smiled and went straight forward to fiddle with Lu Xiangsheng.

"Your Majesty, I can't help it!"

Seeing that the emperor wanted to dress himself personally, Lu Xiangsheng was startled and was busy.

"It's okay, it's okay, Jiandou, if you can really train a warrior for me, what is the matter with me dressing you personally?"

Zhu Jian smiled and said.

After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng didn't shirk anything, and there were already a few tears in his eyes.

"Your Majesty has the grace of knowing the minister, and the minister will serve the death force to repay the king's kindness."

"Yes, yes, my brother Jiandou, put on this set of clothes purchased by His Majesty personally, my brother's spirit is excellent!"

Hong Chengchou on the side said with a smile.

"Hengjiu, or I will get a set for you."

"Your Majesty...... This, the minister still counts, this thing is only used in the army, and my generation is only afraid that it is a violent thing! ā€

Just when Zhu Jian and Hong Chengchou were laughing, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but point to the lonely epaulettes hanging on his shoulders, and the dragon and tiger pattern on his left chest, the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, and the two big characters 'dragon and tiger' in cursive script.

"Oh, Jiandou, this is a military rank, don't doubt Jiandou, and listen to me slowly, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has been a knighthood system, eighteen-level official positions, eighteen-order civil official positions, twelve-level military officials, and ten levels of civil honor, and twelve ranks of martial arts, but there is a unique lack of a military rank system, I think this dynasty is ......"

Zhu Jian's words are nothing more than simplifying the complicated, and the establishment of a military rank system in the army is convenient for unified management in the army, while Zhu Jian's military rank system from general to lieutenant will have three ranks, upper, middle, and lower, and the school has four orders, upper, middle, lower, and quasi, and there are two orders for lieutenants, upper and lower, corresponding to one to nine rank court officials, and there is no distinction between positive and subordinate.

For the generals of a hundred battles, the upper one, the three suns, and the remainder, decreasing one by one;

For the school, the above, the three moons, the remainder, one by one, decreasing;

Those who are lieutenants, those who are above, the three gold stars, and the remainder, are also decreasing one by one;

In addition, for ordinary soldiers, there are two categories: pawns and soldiers, and there are three classes of pawns, upper, middle, and lower, and there are three to one horizontal bar; There are also three levels of scholars, upper, middle, and lower three levels, the sergeant, the six bars, and the remainder, decreasing.

Hearing Zhu Jian's words, although Lu Xiangsheng did not remember it completely, he also understood one thing, that is, the configuration of his clothes, which belonged to the clothes of the third-grade masters, in other words, it was equivalent to the official position of the commander, and his previous prefect of the Daimyo Mansion was just a fourth-grade official.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiangsheng fell to his knees.

"Wechen thanked Your Majesty Longen!"

Seeing this, Zhu Jian smiled, he understood that Lu Xiangsheng had already figured out these rank systems at this moment, if not, he would not be like this.

"Jiandou, don't be like this, the military rank system is still only implemented in your formation of a new army, and your identity is now a little troublesome to the outside world, so I will grant you the title of commander and envoy [Cong Erpin], and give you General Zhaoyong [Wu Sanguan: Zheng Sanpin] for your training of the new army."

Speaking of this, Zhu Jianhu turned around and said to Hong Chengchou.

"Heng Jiu, you did things for me before, and I didn't reward you for anything, but now you recommend Jiandou for me, and I will reward you together, and I don't know how to give you a good doctor [Wen Sanguan: Zheng Er Pin]?"

Hearing Zhu Jian's words, Lu and Hong already knelt down to thank them.

......

"Jiandou, do you know what this dragon and tiger mean?"

"I don't know, I want to listen to what Your Majesty has to say."

"Jiandou is too modest, but if you really listen to my words, I think that the dragon is also the emperor; The tiger, the minions, the meaning of the dragon martial arts, but the minions of me, the minions of my Ming Empire. ā€

Speaking of this, Zhu Jian's eyes were already like torches, looking up into the distance, and he was a little distracted for a long time.

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to be the minions of His Majesty and the minions of the Ming Dynasty, this ambition is unswerving!"
