The old general moved his mind for a while, and put down his body to dig the corner of Wang Jue's new army, which is also related to the character of Sima Mingwei, a general. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSima Mingwei was born in the middle and lower ranks of officers, his father was a major in the army, and his uncle was a naval officer. This makes him basically from a military family and has received good education and training in the military academy.

Such a general, who was born in a professional class, happened to meet Ge Tianzhang, who had formulated the strategic national policy of first the south and then the north, and was transferred to the southern theater. Because of his repeated military exploits, he was promoted to a major general all the way and became a new spokesperson for the grassroots rise of the Ming Empire. This general is basically similar to Yang Zizhen, he is from a positive background and a professional background, and he has shed blood and made meritorious contributions on the front line, so he can definitely be regarded as the best soldier of the Ming Empire.

Sima Mingwei became famous earlier than Yang Zizhen, and he is one of the best people in the Ming Empire who knows how to lead troops and use soldiers.

If he hadn't been so comprehensive, Zhu Mu and Ge Tianzhang would not have reached a consensus and handed over the vital New 2nd Army to him to manage. And the first thing this old general who had a bit of a way out of mind when he met Chen Zhaoming, the future star of the new army, was to dig a wall behind his back.

What made Sima Mingwei even more embarrassed was that the other party didn't seem to be very cooperative: when he promised high-ranking officials Houlu, the original script of bowing his head did not appear...... At this time, Sima Mingwei finally realized that his means of winning over him seemed to be a little inappropriate for the officers of the new army.

Promotion? Hehe, less than a year ago, Zhang Jianjun, the commander of the new 1st Army, was still the battalion commander of the soy sauce in the Royal 1st Army; Now Guo Xing, the commander of the New 2nd Army, is just a little-known person; Wang Yan, the acting commander of the New 3rd Army, had just been promoted, and he had only been a chief of staff for a short time...... Even an orthodox soldier like Yang Zizhen is now the chief of staff of the New 1st Group Army.

Facts have proved that if you really want to compete for the speed of promotion, Sima Mingwei seems to be over 45 years old when he became the commander of the army himself - how can he ensure that the promotion speed of his subordinates can be faster than that of the officers in the new 1st Army?

It is no wonder that when Chen Zhaoming and the others heard Sima Mingwei talk about promotion, the expression on their faces was strange - it was an uncomfortable expression that held back their laughter and did not dare to make a sound, and in Sima Mingwei's eyes, it was almost like constipation. You must know that more than a month ago, Chen Zhaoming was an infantry squad leader who commanded 11 soldiers with a rifle on his back, and now he is a captain officer in charge of logistics...... Isn't the speed of promotion fast enough?

Sima Mingwei also realized his mistake, and he remembered the summary report on the development of the new 1st Group Army that he had seen, as well as some so-called "private goods" obtained from His Majesty the Emperor. Watching the rise of the new army was even more enjoyable than personally commanding a fierce battle.

Of course, the rapid rise of an army must be built up by one victory after another. And for military personnel, victory in battle often means promotion. "The new army can lead troops from top to bottom, and everyone can be an officer!" This is what Emperor Zhu Mu said to Sima Mingwei, Sima Mingwei didn't believe this at that time, but now he has to believe that there doesn't seem to be much exaggeration in what Zhu Mu said.

Another thing that impressed Sima Mingwei was a set of data, which had no less impact on Sima Mingwei yesterday than seeing Chen Zhaoming now. Moreover, compared with the impact of a talent like Chen Zhaoming, General Sima Mingwei, who has been leading the army for a long time, can more intuitively feel the terrible coming of the new army!

gave up recruiting Chen Zhaoming, or had already seen Chen Zhaoming's desperate feelings for the New Army, Sima Mingwei immediately gave up the initial idea of pulling him under his command, smiled awkwardly, and covered up the embarrassment of digging the foot of the wall but failing.

I saw that the old general waved his hand, took out the majesty of a general, and opened his mouth to use his mission to Liaodong as an excuse, and hummed: "It's me Sima Mingwei who is abrupt, but when I go to Liaodong, I naturally want to borrow someone from Wang Jue, and if he doesn't let you go when the time comes, that's another matter!" ”

The old general turned his gaze to Chen Zhaoming, and suddenly asked Captain Chen Zhaoming, who was still there and didn't know how to face this old urchin, and said, "Don't mention this matter for the time being...... I am curious about something, and I ask you, you have to reply truthfully, otherwise I don't want this old face in the future, and I want you to get out of the army! ”

After all, it is an old fritter who has been immersed in officialdom for many years, and with one sentence, Chen Zhaoming, who was still shameless in the logistics department of the Ministry of War just now, was shocked, and he instantly found the field where he couldn't dig the wall just now. Chen Zhaoming hurriedly replied: "Your Excellency General, Captain Chen Zhaoming will definitely answer truthfully. ”

The old general was very satisfied with this attitude, nodded slowly, pretended to be careless, and asked casually: "I heard that your new army training has scrapped more than 10,000 rifles a year, but is it true?" ”

"Report to Your Excellency General! Counting the actual combat in Liaodong, there are actually more than 20,000 units...... "Chen Zhaoming, as a new officer of the logistics department of the new army, naturally wants to make up for the logistics supply work of his army. And he is a natural expert in this area, and the specific figures may need to be checked by the archives, but the rough numbers are clear to him.

After ......hearing this even more unexpected figure, the veteran general Sima Mingwei gasped - according to the fact that every soldier had fired a gun, this new army had 200,000 men and horses, and at least 100 million rounds of ammunition had been fired! The average person has fired 500 shots! This figure may be ten or even twenty times that of the local second-rate troops of the Ming Empire...... It could even be thirty times or more!

What kind of training army is this? It's burning gold coins! The invincible "10,000-victorious army" under his original command in southern Xinjiang could not be compared with the ammunition base of training. How terrifying the combat effectiveness of this Liaodong New Army was, Sima Mingwei, as the commander, immediately had a new understanding.

Soldiers are already familiar with such things as shooting to the point of numbness when they are training, and this "logical" sense of numbness that bursts out on the battlefield is the "elite" that countless generals are pursuing closest to veterans. And the most expensive shooting training, the new army has done it so perfectly, not to mention other aspects. (To be continued.) )
