Chapter 17: Planning
After Qin Zhong arrived at the youth camp, he had to run in the morning every day, followed by basic physical training, and in the morning, he mainly studied in cultural classes. Then there is the battle formation training in the afternoon, and the confrontation training with armor on the head, as well as targeted training such as archery.
Push-ups, sit-ups and horizontal bars were a bit new in Qin Zhong's opinion, but the targeted training of bows and arrows opened his eyes. The training of archers is generally time-consuming, laborious and expensive, which is why archers are so valuable.
However, Li Xiang is accustomed to relying on the strength of the collective, and the "pulley stone" he made alleviates the contradiction of time and money. Instead of wasting precious arrows, the archer can simulate archery by holding the model of the bow with his left hand and pulling the stone under the pulley with his right hand and repeating this action rhythmically.
Coupled with several training equipment for practicing arm and waist strength, it has become possible to train a large number of qualified archers in a short period of time.
The youth camp is already equipped with 40 kg straight bows, the worst ones are 30 kg, and will be replaced with more tensile straight bows in the future. Straight archers trained in batches are relatively dull, and their personal accuracy cannot be counted on at all, so the commander's combat formation quality is required.
The unique meals and cultural classes in the morning of the youth camp are also very attractive to Qin Zhong, reading and reading and literacy, even in the great Zhou of literary words, it is a luxury for the little people.
Li Xiaofuzi taught everyone how to use 26 symbols to combine with each other to represent words, so that Qin Zhong could already read the books translated by Mengxue. This is not Li Xiang's expectation, Hanyu Pinyin is so magical.
Through the efforts of Li Xiang, Liu Susu, Xiong Chengwen and others, Hanwen Pinyin successfully took root in the Great Zhou. With 26 letters plus tones and Arabic numerals, smart people can read pinyin books in less than three months.
On the playground, the banquet was not removed. Li Xiangzheng and his students talked about the future arrangements of Mengxue and the Youth Camp, as well as the decision of Mengxue, the Youth Camp and the Artisan Camp to jointly form a laboratory.
After Li Xiang's arrangement and everyone's wishes, Xiong Chengwen will be mainly responsible for the translation of Mengxueying's books in the future, marking more books with pinyin, and bringing a few teenagers and girls with good calculations to be responsible for the accounts.
Liu Xiaoci devoted himself to the medical team, researching surgeries and pills, medicines, etc.; Radar, who is cute but has an extraordinary talent for machinery, enters the laboratory and is deeply involved in Li Xiang's research and development; Xiong Chengwu, Yang Jianchuan, Qin Zhong and Liu Decheng began to work towards qualified generals.
All students still need to continue to receive Li Xiang's cultural education, and when Li Xiang finishes teaching and sorting out his knowledge, he can let his students gradually take over most of the work. In this way, Li Xiang can free up his hands to do other work, instead of simply repeating it.
The youth camp was surrounded by children from a few years old to a teenager, Liu Susu was ravaging a few little fat piers, and a few fat dolls were screaming excitedly. After the villagers saluted Liu Chengdong and left, Li Xiang took a sip of tea, took advantage of the difficulty to gather, and continued to talk about the next arrangements
Liu Xiaoci looked at the little master Li he admired the most in a daze, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The men of Da Zhou are fifteen years old, and the women are considered adults at the age of thirteen, and many boys and girls in the youth camp have begun to have their own careful thoughts.
In the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner full of laughter, the first year of Emperor Qinzong finally passed. Li Xiang is just 20 years old, and Liu Susu is 17 years old.
On the playground of Mingyue Village, the villagers basically returned to their homes. Some of the old villagers, regardless of whether they were high or low, started to pile the remaining fires into several balls, and then gathered together, drank hot soup and began to talk.
The most talked about is Li Xiaofuzi and Liu Susu, mainly because of the great changes that have taken place in the cottage in the past six months.
Some people are also curious about where Li Xiang is from, and then they will be forcibly interrupted by the people around them. Because of the present and future of Mingyue Village, there is no shortage of Li Xiaofuzi. No matter what Li Xiaofuzi's life is, whether it is a fugitive from the court, or a declining family, in short, Mingyuezhai can't do without him.
For the first time in the history of Mingyue Village, the villagers are re-qualified to continue the custom of keeping the New Year, and many people are in tears. In the crackling sound of firewood and the crying and laughter of the villagers, the first year of the Great Zhou Dynasty passed.
……
There was a "crackling" sound, and Wan Yan turned over the pyre with a wooden stick.
The winter in Changbai Mountain is much more cruel than that of Mingyue Village, and if the winter materials are not sufficient, it is not impossible for a tribe to disappear entirely.
However, this year's Jurchens will not have such difficulties, and the things they have snatched from the Khitans and Han Chinese are very sufficient. Small tribes such as the Murwei and Xi people joined one after another, and also brought a lot of wealth, and Ah Guda knew in his heart that this was all exchanged for the lives of the Jurchen warriors.
As a genius military strategist and statesman, Aguta adopted the advice of the Han Confucian scholars and saw the opportunity to reform the Jurchen military system. It is not only a reward for merit, but also for the purpose of increasing the number of victories in the next battle of life and death and improving the morale of the Jurchens.
Meng'an Moke, the Jurchen version of the samurai feudal system, was the basic military household system of the Jurchens. When the Jurchen regime was at its strongest, dozens to hundreds of military households supported a Jurchen warrior.
Jurchen warriors can only get their own military household if they make military exploits. These military households were usually equivalent to their coolies, at the mercy of slavery, and they could also select auxiliaries from them, which they could use as cannon fodder, transport booty, etc.
After Aguta announced the decision to reform Meng'an Mouke, the Jurchen nobles present were silent. But they all understood that Aguta's prestige among the tribe was now in full swing, and Meng'an Mok was also obviously beneficial to the vast majority of low-level warriors. If there is no suitable reason to oppose it, it can only end up being abandoned by his subordinates.
"The god of Changbai Mountain is above, I, Wanyan beggar. May I obey the orders of the Great Khan until death! "Ah Guta's own brother, Wanyan Ah Begging Mai knew about today's events and immediately expressed his allegiance.
"I, Wan Yan Yan also..."
"I am willing to obey the orders of my father Khan...", and then the three of them, the two sons of Akuta, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zongbi, also expressed their allegiance. Aqimai's son Wanyan Zongfu and Yan's son Wanyan Zonghan are no exceptions.
For the first time in history, Wanyan Aguta integrated the entire Jurchen tribe and initially achieved centralization. Then the barbaric power of the Jurchens swept across the Liao Kingdom and the Great Zhou, shattering countless families and destroying countless achievements of civilization.
Throughout the winter, Aguta was gathering the small Jurchen tribe. The female * cavalry swept through the eastern part of the Liao Kingdom, replacing the garbage in the hands of the Jurchen soldiers with captured armor and weapons, and repairing and building armor with captured Han craftsmen.
The Jurchen coalition army under Aguta's command has increased sharply to 20,000 soldiers, and with the attached tribal army, the number of soldiers has exceeded 50,000.
In the second year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the first day. Most of the Zhou people were still asleep, the Liao magnates, including the lords, were still partying all night, but the Jurchen coalition army was swearing to set off in the bitter cold.
One by one, the Jurchen warriors walked up to him, saluted and continued to move forward, their faces full of determination and determination... Ah Guda looked at the central capital of Liao, and the sky in the distance seemed to tremble in the darkness. Emperor Tianzuo, Huangkou Xiao'er, I don't know how your 700,000 army will resist my Akuta.
In northern China, in the Changbai Mountains, a new barbaric force, has taken shape!
