"One-two-one, one-two-one!"

As soon as the day dawned, the neat slogans sounded in Daqing Fort, and the soldiers began a day's training around the city wall. Zhang Ke emphasized sweating more in peacetime and less bloodshed in wartime. After the battle of Fengjibao, the soldiers also saw their own shortcomings, and when it came to the body, the white-armored soldiers of Jiannu wore two layers of armor, held heavy shields and weapons, and could climb the city wall and run like flying. This alone, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even many generals can't do it!

After exchanging combat experience, the big guy strengthened a belief.

Train! Practice!

The new Baihu, General Banner, and Xiaoqi led their subordinates to train and pass the test one by one. The battle had just ended, and it was a good time to strike while the iron was hot, and every soldier had to temper himself into steel.

The soldiers ran fast, two people stood at the head of the city, and on the left was a middle-aged man of about forty, not tall, full of muscles and muscles, with a beard and two bright eyes. On the right is a muscular giant with a hat on his back and bast shoes, and the two of them look down and marvel incessantly.

"Good soldiers, really good soldiers, these boys are full of murderous energy, that kind of ambition, our Jinyi guards also have to sigh to themselves!"

"Master, although we are practicing the way of killing, which is much stronger than the flower fist embroidered legs on the rivers and lakes, these soldiers are all learning the means of fighting for their lives. In all fairness, even if our kung fu is much better than theirs, we may not be able to beat it! ”

"Hahahaha, Thirteen, it's really strange that you have softened!"

Zhuo Shisanhan smiled and scratched his head, "Can you not be convinced, hundreds of human heads have been transported to the capital, and all of them are real tartars." A person who has not participated in the fake, the civil and military nobles of the imperial court, which one should not pick a thumbs up and praise! ”

"Yes, I, Zhu Qi, also admire a good man the most, Zhang Yongzhen is indeed a character." The Seventh Taipo said. Turning to Zhuo Thirteen, his eyes suddenly became sharper than a knife, and he asked in a low voice, "Thirteen, you tell me the truth, how did Zhang Ke get sick?" Why did he suddenly fall after two days of fighting in Fengjibao? ”

"This!"

Zhuo 13 suddenly returned to ten years ago, when he followed Zhu Qi to learn art and was on the board. Fear was already deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and when he suddenly asked, he was suddenly dumbfounded, and his face turned red: "Master, this matter ......"

"Say no more!"

Zhu Qi waved his hand. The face gradually softened.

"Thirteen, what we are doing is a lack of virtue in cutting off children and grandchildren, we must leave a way back for ourselves, don't say much that you shouldn't say, even if you follow the master! Do you understand? ”

"Well, Master, the disciple remembered!"

"Okay, let's go meet Zhang Ke. There are some things I want to sue him. ”

……

"Seventh master, thirteenth brother, alarmed you to come to see me. What a shame! If a person is sick, it is useless! Zhang Ke leaned against the kang and said in frustration.

"Hahaha, Yongzhen, if you are useless, there will be no useful people in the Ming Dynasty. Don't say anything else. Aren't you also a member of Jinyiwei, just call me Seventh Brother! ”

Zhang Ke had heard of Zhu Qi's name. This has an iron-faced and ruthless nickname among the brocade guards, and there are not a few officials who have fallen in his hands. Even if he is a character at the level of Shangshu Shilang, when he hears Zhu Qiye of Jinyiwei, he is still covered in cold sweat!

"Seventh Master, how can Zhang Ke be virtuous, isn't this messing up the generations, or I will recognize you as a master, right?"

Zhang Ke looked at Zhuo Shisan as if asking for help, this big man was extremely honest in front of the teacher, his eyebrows were low, and he didn't say a word.

Zhu Qi smiled and said: "Yongzhen, don't be polite, I, Zhu Qi, to put it bluntly, is a dog, you are the dragon among people, sooner or later you will soar, and you can be called a brother and a brother, it has already been earned." ”

"Seventh master, it's a bad boy!"

Zhu Qi sighed and suddenly sighed, "Yongzhen, I have something to tell you." ”

Zhang Ke is not a fool, as soon as he heard Zhu Qi's words, he knew that it was not a trivial matter, and hurriedly said: "Seventh master, you can say it, the kid will not miss half a word." ”

"I believe Yongzhen, do you know why it took a while for the following brothers to send us the reward?" Zhu Qi sighed to himself: "It's not easy for the master to live the master, when he gets the good news, he wants to use his internal money, but his hand is empty!" The dignified and wealthy Long Live Lord can only reward Yongzhen, He Zongbing, and General Yu first. Fortunately, a ship came back from Japan at this time, and I heard that a lot of gold and silver were sent to the master......"

After Zhu Qi finished speaking, a pair of eyes kept staring at Zhang Ke, wanting to see a clue from this young man's face, but Zhang Ke was extremely calm, as if he was listening to the story, and sighed.

"I really didn't expect the dignified Ninety-Five Honor to be so embarrassed, it's sad!"

Zhu Qi stared for a long time, suddenly got up, and said casually: "Yongzhen, you take care of it, Thirteen and I have to rush to Liaoyang to investigate the case, and the official body is not free!" ”

The two Taibao left Zhang Ke's bedroom, and as soon as they left, Zhang Ke jumped off the kang and paced back and forth on the ground.

There are at least three points about the news revealed by Zhu Qi that make people's hearts beat, the internal money is empty, and Emperor Wanli has no money; The idea I gave worked and I started shipping money from Japan; There is also the case to be investigated, who does Wanli want to do!

"Where is the case handled, it's just to find money to spend! In Japan, it is called Qiaofu, and in Liaoyang it is a robbery! Thinking of this, Zhang Ke couldn't help but see a figure in front of him.

"Jin Wanguan, Jin Wanguan, the emperor is short of money, and you, a famous imperial businessman, are going to be unlucky!"

The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden. The master is hungry, and the emperor cooks!

The sinister nature of the world is simply chilling.

Zhang Ke was barefoot, pacing back and forth on the ground, if he wanted to survive in this troubled world, he could only rely on his strong strength and never let anyone control his own destiny!

"Someone!"

Ma Biao hurriedly ran in, "My lord, what are your orders?" ”

"Go and call everybody, I've got something to do."

The order was passed on, and after a short time, all the civil and military officers under his command arrived.

Qiao Fu and Wu Boyan, who had recently been promoted to a thousand households, walked in front, followed by Qiao Gui, Yue Zixuan, Ma Rufeng and others, in addition to Tang Bi, brother-in-law Deng Wentong, Shen Yue, Tang Guang, Zhu Qingbin and others also arrived. The small study was full.

In front of his own people, Zhang Ke didn't pretend to be sick anymore, and sat on the main seat with a golden knife.

"Everyone knows that I have been promoted to the rank of Jinyi Counselor, and the tide is rising, and the strength in our hands must also be strengthened. To put it simply, it is to expand the number of people, so let's talk about it! ”

"Okay!"

Wu Boyan said with a smile: "My lord, you are now a general, it stands to reason that you can command a battalion of men, three or five thousand people is not much, our Daqing Fort adds up, I'm afraid it's less than a thousand, we are monks who don't love money, the more the better." ”

Tang Bi nodded: "It is true that the number of people should be expanded, and now the young and strong people of Daqing Fort are all enthusiastically joining the army, and recruiting troops is not a problem." ”

Zhang Ke smiled and nodded: "Since everyone agrees, then it's decided, but one thing to remember, you should rather lack than excess." Even if you are not satisfied with recruiting in Daqing Fort and other places, you can go to Yizhou and Jinzhou to recruit troops. ”

Everyone had no opinion and nodded excitedly.

"By the way, my lord, you are all Jinyi generals, according to reason, you should be stationed in Yizhou, you can't be in Daqing Fort, right?" Qiao Fu asked curiously.

"Well, let's restore the combat effectiveness first, the fists are not hard enough, but I can't suppress those guys!

With Zhang Ke's nod, the recruitment work progressed rapidly. There were less than 600 soldiers in Daqing Fort, and after deducting the soldiers who died, there were only 500 veterans.

After more than ten days of recruitment, the number of soldiers in Daqing Fort soon exceeded 1,200. The total strength of the militia retained in Shanggebao was approaching 2,000 people, almost reaching the limit of the Great Qing Fort, and Zhang Ke suspended the recruitment of troops and began to reorganize instead.

Because of the battle with the wild boar skin, Zhang Ke felt that their bows and arrows were sharp and could cause fatal damage to the soldiers of Daqing Fort, so he had to integrate spear and shield soldiers into the fire team to strengthen the defense. After several deliberations, and referring to the establishment of the Shenji Battalion, Zhang Ke finally determined the final plan.

Each team consisted of sixty-four people, including forty-four musketeers, divided into four squads, each with a chief, who was the main force of the battle. There is also a group of sword and shield soldiers of the same eleven, who are responsible for covering in front in the event of a battle, so that the musketeers can shoot calmly.

In addition, due to the solid training of the soldiers in Daqing Fort, Zhang Ke canceled all the drummers and flag-bearers used for the order. Instead, they became the guards of the management officer, and they and the management officer, a total of five people, were all equipped with handcuffs, waist knives, and large shields. Supervise the whole army to fight, and those who dare to escape from the battle will not be spared. If there is a gap in the battle formation, they must also take the lead in filling it.

The last four men were left to serve as reinforcements to manage the powder keg.

According to Zhang Ke's estimate, such a well-equipped and well-trained firearm team can definitely compete with the same number of Jiannu on the battlefield. Moreover, the soldiers of Daqing Fort fought to protect their homeland, and their ability to bear casualties was far higher than that of the wild boar skins that plundered for a living, and they were absolutely sure of defeating the enemy in the field.

If the family background is sufficient, Zhang Ke certainly hopes that his subordinates will be completely firearmed. However, this is very unrealistic, after all, the Qi family's army was only half of the firearms in its heyday.

Zhang Ke also needed to organize a large number of pikemen, and the pikemen team was the same as the gunpowder team, except that they did not need four auxiliary soldiers in charge of gunpowder, so in addition to the five captains of spearmen, the captain's escort was expanded to eight people.

Two teams form a sentry, and three sentry form a hand, led by the president.

In this way, it is not only concise and clear, easy to command, but also can be quickly restored after being dispersed. In the field, you can attack and retreat, even if you are facing the iron cavalry, you are not afraid at all.

After Zhang Ke announced it, everyone applauded and immediately began to act in accordance with the new military system.

Just when everyone was busy, brother-in-law Deng Wentong suddenly found Zhang Ke.

"Yongzhen, a few masters of the Ordnance Workshop in Hewan Village invited you over, they said that they had developed something good, and they wanted you to see it for yourself!"

"Good! I'm trying to ask them for a weapon! Zhang Ke smiled heartily. (To be continued)
