Zu Dashou's eyes were full of murder, and he glanced at the afterimage that was fading in the moonlight in the distance, and then he sighed and became sad: "It seems that ...... We're in trouble, these Japanese slaves have been causing trouble in the southeast, and I don't know why they suddenly appeared in the territory of Liaodong now! ”

Li Rusong scolded fiercely when he heard this, looking at the increasingly gloomy sky in the distance, the black rumbling seemed to be able to devour people's hearts, he sighed whitely, summoned three or four soldiers, picked up the corpse of this slave, and walked towards Xia Mudu Governor Xingyuan.

At this time, Li Chengliang, Zu Chengxun, and Yu Dawei were sitting under Xia Mu, and several people were discussing the training of the new army.

While listening to Li Chengliang's introduction to the situation in Liaodong, Xia Mu used a dagger to cut off the roast mutton in front of the case and put it in his mouth. The roast mutton is the fattest thigh on the whole sheep, the golden dripping oil roasted by the charcoal fire, coupled with the best honey sauce, the meat is mellow and melts in the mouth.

While eating, Xia Mu gulped a full sip of mare's milk wine, which was somewhat similar to the lactic acid bacteria of later generations, but more pure.

Yu Dawei listened to Li Chengliang's introduction of the situation in Liaodong at this time, and saw him mention this batch of new troops and weapons, he was even more full of expectations, and couldn't help sighing: "General Li don't have too much hope for this batch of sergeants!" ”

Li Chengliang's face changed: "Why? If you want to recover the Hetao, this army is the main force! ”

Hearing this, Xia Mu slammed the dagger into the leg of mutton, wiped his mouth, looked at the puzzled expressions of Li Chengliang and Zu Chengxun, and said slowly: "Lord Li's words are wrong, this army is going to be used for training in Liaodong, and now is not the time to recover the Hetao." ”

"Uncle, we have held on for more than 20 years, and now the imperial court has sent a large army, and there are even firearms from the Shenji Battalion, and the first battle to recover the old land of mountains and rivers is just around the corner!"

Xia Mu smiled: "Although the general has fought many battles with me in the past few years and won many victories, I am not as vulnerable as the general said. If it is really vulnerable, why has it been like a fire in the past ten years, and the imperial court has not been able to extinguish it with all the strength of the whole country? Besides, as far as I know, Boyan Ji is good at using soldiers, and he is often able to turn danger into victory and defeat into victory. Moreover, the Yuan people are nomadic people, they have been skilled in bows and horses since childhood, although the combat strength of Jinyiwei is not weak, but the war does not rely on individual bravery, but by teamwork, this army has Dongchang, Jinyiwei, forbidden army, miscellaneous very, if you do not go through training, it is difficult to defeat me, not to mention...... Benber has its own military training program! ”

"Solution? Training the army? The army is all killed on the battlefield, and for the first time, the last general heard that military training can train a division of a hundred battles! ”

Xia Mu saw that Li Chengliang's face showed a very disapproving expression, and felt that he shouldn't say so much to him, so he smiled and said: "The general has something to say and is upright, so I don't shy away from being presumptuous and reckless in the light." If I were to say these words in front of others, I wouldn't even say a word. ”

Li Chengliang also knew that he was a little excited, took a deep breath, looked at Xia Mu and asked apologetically: "I just don't know my uncle's military training, what is the way?" ”

"Military training is a major national event, but it is a pity that the court has no knowledge of the military situation, such as in the drum, such as in a dream. If you don't know yourself, you don't know who you are, how can you win? The old training program is outdated, and now the authority of the Daming firearms is increasing, and Portugal, Italy and other countries have seen the power of the Daming firearms, and have come to pay tribute many times, while we ourselves do not pay attention to firearms, and are still working on the bow and horse. For example, in our army, except for the musket battalion and artillery battalion of the Shenji battalion, other firearms have not formed a unified configuration, such as the general's iron cannon, the second general's iron cannon, the general's copper cannon, the small general's copper cannon, the god's gun, the big bronze Buddha cannon, the magic cannon, the flying cannon, the copper gun, the iron gun, the horse franc machine, the magic arrow, the iron Xuanfeng cannon, the tassel cannon, the iron Buddha machine, the iron three guns, the bowl mouth cannon, the small god cannon, the iron thistle, the nine dragon guns, the iron whip guns, the rocket guns, the sub-mother guns, rockets, etc. Isn't it a pity that none of the firearms used in the army, such as vans, mules, lookouts, yuanrong cars, and drum cars, were used in the army on a large scale! Xia Mu took a glass of wine and said with a smile.

Li Chengliang frowned when he heard this, indeed, they rarely use these firearms in wars, and when they use them, they are just icing on the cake when their advantages are expanded, and they do not play a fundamental role!

Xia Mu wiped his hands, looked at the people who were deep in thought, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Do you know what your biggest failure is?" ”

Without waiting for everyone to reply, Xia Mu leaned forward and continued: "Your biggest failure is that you don't know your own advantages, you don't know how to play up your strengths and avoid weaknesses, and you don't know how to keep pace with the times!" At present, the tactical thinking of the army has been seriously ossified, which has hindered the development of the army. Although our armed forces are equipped with the best weapons and equipment in the world today, they have suffered many defeats and few victories in all foreign and internal wars. Of course, there are problems such as the first system of guards and the collapse of the country's finances, but it is also an indisputable fact that the army's tactical thinking is seriously rigid. ”

When Li Chengliang and others heard this, their hearts shook wildly, and they couldn't help but reflect on themselves.

Xia Mu stood up, walked to the map, looked at Li Chengliang and Zu Chengxun who were bowing their heads, and sighed: "I remember that after Emperor Yongle put forward the principle of firearms combat of 'the god machine is in the front, and the horse team is in the back', this principle is indeed an eternal golden rule at the beginning of our dynasty. However, at that time, the firearm technology was backward, and there was a delayed reloading time after the firearm was fired, and the Mongol and Later Jin armies often used this time to adopt the tactics of light cavalry attack, so we were often defeated. So you don't need firearms, and you return to the infantry and horse battles of the Tang and Song dynasties, isn't this losing watermelons and picking up sesame seeds? No matter how difficult the finances of the Ming Dynasty are, but the firearms funds of one million silver per year have not been reduced, because only advanced weapons can re-establish the national prestige of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Uncle, firearms can really be used on a large scale, and my confirmation is that firearms are very powerful, but marching and fighting, not soldier to soldier, general to general?" Li Chengliang still couldn't help but ask his own questions.

Xia Mu nodded: "In the past, when fighting a war, it was indeed required that the army to which the general belonged personally rushed to kill the enemy, and the victory or defeat of a battle was often directly determined by this kind of soldier-to-soldier and general-to-general fighting. But...... Ladies and gentlemen...... Our Daming firearms are the first in the world, and their lethality is 1000 times that of the past, and the increasing number of different firearms have different properties and uses, but we abandon them like chaff, but it is Portugal, Italy and other overseas countries, do not hesitate to cross the ocean, pay tribute to my Daming, and seek a method of making firearms, isn't this ridiculous! Therefore, the Governor made up his mind to form an army with heavy firearms, and in the future, the march and battle would no longer be archery with archery from horses and arrows, but a battle with artillery fire! ”

Yu Dawei heard Xia Mu talk about the power of firearms when he was in prison, and he also personally tested it, and even when he was killing widows in the southeast, he had seen Qi Jiguang use firearms, and knew the three flavors well, so he hurriedly stood up to speak for Xia Mu at this moment: "General Li, what Uncle said is true, I dare to guarantee that only Uncle Daming knows how to use those big guys to kill the enemy, and it is likely that I will answer between Uncle Uncle's backhand, and it will be wiped out, because I believe that Uncle has this ability!" ”

Li Chengliang knew that Yu Dawei was not a big talker, and when he heard him respect Xia Mu so much, he couldn't help but have some expectations, and hurriedly saluted Xia Mu, clasped his fists and said: "In this way, the last general will wait and see!" ”

Zu Chengxun on the side saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and when he saw that Li Chengliang had a deep prejudice against the use of firearms, he didn't dare to mention another word. Moving his eyes to the wall, he saw Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong" hanging in the middle, the font was graceful and vigorous, and at a glance it was changed from Wang Xizhi's cursive script. The day signed below is yesterday, and in addition to the Yangwen "Guangzhong" stamp, there is also a Yinwen idle chapter: "A strong country must first strengthen the army." Zu Chengxun understood that Xia Mu wrote this poem and used this idle chapter with infinite emotion, so he smiled with emotion and said:

"Even if Yue Wumu is born today, I am afraid that he will not be as far-sighted as his uncle, and it will be difficult to show his ambitions, and he can only rely on the railing to roar in vain, and his ambition will be fierce."

When Xia Mu heard this, he sighed and said: "General Zu, you are joking, I am not as good as Yue Pengju, I am ambitious to eat Hulu meat, and laugh and talk about thirsty Hun blood!" Stay from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky! Loyalty to the country is for faith, and no regrets for nine deaths is for tenacity! Now I am similar to Yue Pengju's situation, I just hope I don't fall into his fate! ”

When Zu Chengxun heard Xia Mu's words, his face changed: "Uncle! You are concerned about the safety of the community, why do you make such ominous words? ”

"This is fate, time is not waiting for me!"

"Huh? ……”

"Now that the saint is old, the power of the court and the central government has fallen into the hands of the Yan family's father and son, I won, recover the Hetao, naturally ask for a reward, and if I lose, I will die without a whole body. When the old emperor was alive, I was naturally fine, but as soon as the new emperor ascended the throne, he may be able to accommodate me, a hero of a strong country. ”

When Yu Dawei heard this, he was also saddened, so he had to say: "As a commander, Uncle still has something to do in the overall situation, so he shouldn't be so discouraged." ”

When Li Chengliang and Zu Chengxun heard this, they were full of shame, and felt inferior to Fang Cai's contempt for Xia Mu, this Xia Mu is so for the country, they should be the first to look forward to him. Thinking that the two of them looked at each other, knelt down at the same time, and shouted: "From now on, the last general can only bow to his uncle and die for himself. ”

After a pause, Li Chengliang said again: "As long as the uncle does not dislike it, I, Li Chengliang, am willing to lead the horse and kick the feet for the uncle, kill the ministers, drive out the captives, and restore the Ming Dynasty!" ”

"Good!" Xia Mu was waiting for such a sentence, and immediately stroked his palms and laughed, "We are all allies here, report to the monarch, go down to the dawn, expand the waves of the four seas, and spread the prestige of the Ming Dynasty to the eight wildernesses!" ”

"Very good!"

Zu Chengxun and the three of them also smiled, and Zu Chengxun looked at Xia Muxiao again and asked: "Dare to ask uncle, what is the name of our alliance, I think those literati like to make a club, why don't we also start one?" ”

When Li Chengliang heard this, he knew that they had joined the Xia Party, and from now on, they were not the Xu Party, not the Yan Party, not the Li Party, but around this young man, headed by him, for the Xia Party!

Xia Mu's heart was boiling, he didn't dare to form a party when he was in the capital, because the old emperor only wanted him to be a lonely minister, but now that he is out of the capital, he finally has his own party members.

At this moment, I heard everyone say this, thought about it, and suddenly remembered the purpose of the Alliance founded by Sun Yat-sen in later generations, and couldn't help laughing and laughing: "Our future party will be called the 'Alliance', and our purpose is: to drive out the Tartars and restore our China!" ”

"The Alliance? Good! ”

"What an alliance!"

"We will be a member of the Alliance in the future, drive out the Tartars, and restore my China!"
