Section 228 The system of education for soldiers who were forced out

"Shira-naka told me about the three wars. One is that soldiers have to fight, and not fighting is a capital crime. The second is to meet the place of death, and if you don't fight, you will die, so you will fight to the death. The third is to fight for the generals who lead the army, such as Yue Fei in ancient times, the Yue family's army is so strong, but it makes the court jealous. Yu Qian talked about a topic he had discussed with Bai Minghe.

Li Bing also said: "Before I left Beijing, the white crane sued me. If you want the soldiers to be easy to manage, and let the soldiers be loyal and courteous, in fact, the method is not difficult, just let the soldiers read poetry and books. ”

Looking at Li Bing, Yu Qian understood that this might be a joke that Li Bing thought was before.

But now it seems that this idea has been answered.

"So, how much will that cost?" Yu Qian suddenly had a feeling that it was not easy to do anything without silver.

But Li Bing didn't mention the silver: "Bai Minghe once talked about a way, that is, the talent is unlimited, as long as it meets the standard." Moreover, in addition to Xiucai, a lower-level exam is added, which is called Mengsheng. is to have completed the Mongolian education, but has not yet taken the Xiucai exam. ”

"Feasible?" Yu Qian asked rhetorically.

Li Bing nodded very seriously: "This time the battle of Monan." I agreed with the three governors that only those who could read and write their own military newspapers could be promoted. That is to say, those above the eighth grade will at least write a military newspaper. And those who have reached the seventh grade must be able to write military cases. One hundred households have read at least one book of war and can use it. ”

"What about the court?" Yu Qianxin said, this investment is not small, I don't know how much I need just for books and paper.

Both Hu Gong and Chen Gong expressed their support, but for now they are limited to Datong and Xuanfu. As for the books and papers needed, I was about to apply to the Ministry of War, which is not ......" Li Bing shook the envelope in his hand: "500,000 taels of silver, if this silver is only used for rewards, the soldiers will go north for a hundred miles." ”

"Nope. No! Yu Qian hurriedly waved his hand: "Winning the three cities is already an excellent record, hold it!" The three cities docked at each other, and with the support of Xuanda and the two places, they could be defended. ”

Li Bing also said: "Although I don't know how to soldier, I know that there are several times in this battle that the Ming Dynasty is equal to the enemy's strength, and even twice it is less than the enemy. But all of them returned with great victories without exception, and the losses were almost incalculable, and the military spirit was available. ”

Yu Qian waved his hand: "Not only the military heart, but also the huge reward of the white crane, followed by iron, skin, medicinal materials, etc., the ordnance is better, and the grain and grass are sufficient." It is not only the soldiers who fight, but also the national strength. Three years ago, if the white crane piled up these materials here. I'm afraid there will be no change in the civil fort. ”

"Not necessarily, there is a ...... like Wang Zhen"

mentioned Wang Zhen, but Li Bing gritted his teeth.

"I'm here, just for two days. I was ordered to go south, and Hu Lao would wait for me in Tianjin, and we would go south to Guangdong together. The people of Xing'an, the governor of Dongchang, have already arrived in Guangdong, where there are cases, and the details of Banzai have not been announced. It's just that I went to Guangdong with Hu Gong. But it's something else. ”

Yu Qian told Li Bing about his itinerary.

Under Li Bing's questioning, Yu Qian said truthfully: "I mentioned it just now." The origin of the gold mine of the white crane is actually stricter than this. The white crane does not move the sword soldiers, and has already controlled the zhì there. even let a few second-grade and third-grade officials shout, demoted to low-level official positions of the fourth and fifth grades, and went to Little Luzon to be a petty official, but the official name was small. The power is not low, and he is still the political envoy and governor. The white crane has already regarded Luzon as his own garden, and the materials he pulls back from Little Luzon every day are 50,000 stone a day. ”

"Fifty thousand stones!" But Li Bing was taken aback.

"And that's not counting the meters, the meters are counted separately. This is something other than rice. When Yu Qian said this, he smiled helplessly: "It's wrong, only Fuzhou Port is 50,000 stone a day, and Guangdong heard that there are three ports, and how many are still unknown." Shira-nathan is building a new port again, and seems to think that the dock is too small. ”

Hiss......

Li Bing gasped, and said in his heart that Bai Minghe was just a petty official from the sixth grade, but he was so generous.

"Long live the special decree, even the head of the suke does not know what the content of the holy decree is. This is the imperial decree to the white crane, and I guess with Chen Gong and Hu Gong that it may be an authorization to act cheaply for the white crane. The white name crane is too wild, and he is so arrogant that he wants to destroy the Wa Kingdom, and Long Live has given a special purpose! ”

Hearing Yu Qian say this, Li Bing was puzzled: "The Wa Kingdom is a country that Taizu does not levy in the fifteenth year." ”

Bai Minghe was more reasonable, he said that the Wa King claimed to be the emperor and did not take the Ming Emperor seriously. Not levying does not mean that there is no lesson. Of course, if they resist, then ......" Yu Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He couldn't stop this matter at the moment, because Emperor Daming was determined to support Bai Minghe.

Li Bing also understood why Yu Qian and Hu Hu, the two big men, went to Guangdong in person, they were really afraid that the white-named crane would be lawless, and no one could control it.

Yu Qian said again: "Datong and Xuanfu will be handed over to you, and the white crane will continue to have supplies shipped over." ”

"Why don't you go to school?" Li Bing asked Yu Qian, and Yu Qian nodded: "That's right, it's okay to go and have a look." ”

When Yu Qian and Li Bing arrived at the school grounds, most of the school yards here were like a huge sand table, with the appearance of several cities made of wood, with flags planted on them, and the names of the cities were written on the flags. Yang Jun's leather whip was falling on the body of a fourth-grade general, and the general didn't hide, but took a few whips.

"Ask again, what kind of formation is used for volleying rescue fast riding."

The general was half-kneeling on the ground, sweating profusely. It's not pain, it's urgent. Just now he thought that his answer was already very outstanding, but he was whipped a few times by Yang Jun, and he would continue to think about it, and he couldn't think of a better way for a while.

"You're the back team!" Yang Jun made a choice, and when he was about to choose another general, the general shouted loudly: "Push the grain cart to the front and form a car formation." Then the spearmen guarded the grain carts, and the crossbowmen were responsible for shooting the horses. When the enemy army rushed to a hundred paces, the fire volleyed and shot the horse first. If the enemy rushes to the front, rush to the front......" The general did not hesitate, but made up his mind, and then shouted: "Burn the grain cart with fire oil to stop the enemy." The spearmen stabbed the horses, the swords and shields stepped forward again, and after the enemy was suppressed, the cavalry came out again. ”

Yang Jun nodded: "Why didn't you make such a choice just now." ”

"Dudu, when will I have enough food in Datong? Everybody knows that it is better to hold back the enemy than to reject the horses, and set fire to the grain carts, even if he has 10,000 cavalry, I can keep half of him in a battle with 2,000 men. ”

"Yes. Governor. There are not enough horses, who can bear to stab the horse, and if he can capture a horse alive, there will be one more cavalry! Another general said.

Yu Qian stepped forward at this time: "Burning grain and grass is a good tactic, grain and grass can be prepared again, and people cannot be resurrected after death." The white crane has a recital for long live in Guangdong. Another two million stone rice was prepared, and it was transported to the capital with the help of the Nanjing Sailor of Wei Guogong. Only by saving one's life can one enjoy military merits. ”

Yu Qian was really moved, these are generals, not soldiers.

There are also some generals in the Ming Dynasty who drink the blood of soldiers, but there are more good generals who love soldiers like sons and share weal and woe.

In order for more people to survive, food is what they have to guarantee.

As for the two million stones, it was purely Yu Qian's own words. There was no such manuscript at all, but he was confident that Bai Minghe would take out the two million stone rice, or even more.

"Lord Yu!" The general shouted softly, and the generals around Hulala surrounded him.

Yu Qian was happy on the one hand, helpless on the other, and of course there was a feeling that he hated Bai Minghe more and more, because Bai Minghe's silver bullet tactics were becoming more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. And at this time, he had to use the silver bullet of the white crane to stimulate the morale of these generals.

A letter was handed over to Yang Jun. The two words Yang Jun above are still Zhu Pi.

You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, the only person who can write with a red pen is the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, this is called Zhu Pi, and it is impossible for others to use it.

Yang Jun opened it and took a look, he was really taken aback, and then circulated the paper to the generals. No one doubted that this piece of paper could not be exchanged for 100,000 taels of silver. What is the token of the white crane, the credit value of the white crane, in the hearts of these generals, it is at least the level of a hundred stones of gold.

"Why did you hit Xicheng first?" Yu Qian asked a general at this time.

There are three cities here, which are the ancient surrender cities. It was built by Gongsun Ao during the Han Dynasty, and it was also called Dongcheng. Then about the location of Baotou, is the middle city. A hundred miles further to the west, is the West City. The three cities are also collectively known as the surrendered cities, which are the glorious achievements of the Han Dynasty against the Xiongnu.

"Go back to your lordship, hit Dongcheng first. If Midtown sends troops to help, we will stop it in the field with a formation to weaken the enemy's combat strength. What's more, after taking Dongcheng first, Zhongcheng is the largest, and it is difficult for them to escape, so they surround it in one fell swoop and take Zhongcheng. It's not greed like us, whether it's a soldier or a herdsman. Let them go back is the combat power of the tile spur, and if they stay, the entire tile spur will be weakened. This winter, I'm afraid they won't have time to go south. ”

The generals laughed, they were in a hurry.

Before the tile spurs plan to go south to rob, take these three cities first, then Xuanda will have a direct face to the enemy.

"Before the fifteenth day of August, take the West City. End the fighting before September, and make them look good if the tiles go south in October. Xu Gui's voice came from behind, Yu Qian only made one movement, and the same envelope was handed over to Xu Gui. This money is not all for you to give rewards, part of it is that Bai Minghe subsidizes Xuanda and Xuanda, and the children of military families study and test their fame. ”

The money has been given, and how to use it is up to Yu Qian to say that he can still call the shots.

It's another 100,000 taels, and there is already the sound of swallowing spit on the school ground.

Yu Qian took out two more envelopes and shook them in the air: "Take the three cities, and the official will ask for a reward for you again." ”

"Take the three cities!" There was a lot of cheers on the school ground, and the morale was indeed at the extreme.

Yu Qian understands that such morale, such troops. In the next month, the Watts will not be able to face it. If there was such morale at the time of the Tumubao Change, the 30,000 cavalry guaranteed that none of them would be able to return.

It's just that the incompetent and greedy people, the eunuch Wang Zhenzhi and others, beat him to death with a hammer It is too cheap for him.

Yu Qian secretly complained in his heart, just for the white crane. I hate the style of the white crane, but I have to use it, and now that the war is imminent, Yu Qian doesn't dare to have any surprises. Morale is the first and foremost thing, but once it is weakened, if it fails, the consequences will be unimaginable. Fortunately, the Tile Thorns didn't expect that Da Ming would take the initiative to attack.

In this battle, some interest on the civil fort was collected first. (To be continued......)

PS: Hurry up and go to bed, and continue the exam after dawn.

I really suspect that I was crazy at the beginning.

Ha.
