Chapter 48: Military Training
Time flies, and the winter of Obi Island quickly passed in Tang Xiao's cultivation day and night, and it has been eight months since he came to this world.
"Red crisp hands, yellow vine wine, two yellow orioles singing green willows. Outside the long pavilion, on the side of the ancient road, a line of egrets went up to the sky. ”
"There are 3,000 beauties in the back ~ palace ~ beauties, and the iron pestle can also be sharpened into a needle. The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country, and she still sings nunchucks across the river. ”
More than a dozen little girls have changed out of their thick winter jackets, shaking their heads and reciting the rotten poems that Tang Xiao copied from his previous life and tampered with because of his unclear memory.
Tang Xiao has stayed in the third order of the human yuan level for a few months, and has not succeeded in breaking through to the fourth order, the third order is mainly to cultivate the true qi in the body to diffuse out of the body to form the fist gang, sword gang, sword gang and initially form a thin layer of body protection gang qi, when the true qi diffuses out of the gang qi to reach a certain strength, it will change from quantitative to qualitative, allowing the martial artist to break through into the fourth order.
Tang Xiao is already very skilled when his true qi comes out of his body, including the condensing qi carving, and the fist that spreads out of the true qi in his body is also quite sharp, according to Mu Cang's statement, Tang Xiao should have reached the peak state of the third order of the human yuan level, and it just needs an opportunity to break through.
……
In the spring of March, by the Sun and Moon Lake, mixed peanut trees, a group of warblers flew wildly, after breakfast on this day, Tang Xiao stretched out his wings, and in the exclamation of a group of little girls, he flew into the sky from the Shenma Pavilion, and flew to the door of the Hou Mansion of Zhenguo in a moment.
Mu Cang also hurriedly summoned out the low-grade flying magic weapon that Tang Yuan had given him, and flew out with Tang Xiao, since the young master learned the Seven Styles of Transforming the Eagle and Sweeping the Sky, he was becoming more and more unable to keep up with the young master's footsteps.
According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, men between the ages of 16 and 25 must complete five years of military service without the approval of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Emperor, while men over the age of 14 and under the age of 20 who have not stayed in the military must participate in a one-month military training organized by the university every spring.
There are no mandatory requirements for princes and princesses, and they are free to choose whether to participate or not to participate. Of course, the princes with great ambitions will take this opportunity to inspect these nobles and scholars and cultivate their own forces. Regardless of whether it is to inherit the unification or the fief as the king in the future, this is a stage of laying the foundation. The Emperor of Man will not force the princes and princesses to participate in the annual military training of the scholars, but he will secretly observe these princes.
This year's military training of the university was held at the Yilan City Terrier Fang Fishing Port in the east of Taijing City. Tang Xiao had been in the Tang Mansion for a long time, and he just wanted to go out and look for an opportunity to break through from the third order to the fourth order, so this military training was just the right time for him.
The students registered in the university were all the children of princes and nobles, and most of the generals and commanders in the future army of the Ming Dynasty were selected from these noble children. Of course, some civilian soldiers with particularly outstanding talents and outstanding performance also have the opportunity to become generals and commanders in the army, but relatively speaking, it is much more difficult than these noble children.
The Ming Dynasty is currently only occupying an isolated island, and the military strength is very different from that of the Kyushu mainland, and the limited military strength is naturally in the hands of trustworthy people, and the generals among the civilians are likely to be spies planted by the Kyushu mainland, so the military and political power of the Daming Dynasty in the future will still fall on the current group of princes and nobles.
The military training matters of the university are personally supervised by the emperor, and the military department is still followed up in detail, the rules are quite strict, all the soldiers are not allowed to bring the guards and maids, and all the rules are implemented in accordance with the formal military discipline, if the performance is outstanding in the military training, and the military training requirements are met, you can leave the military training place and return to Taijing after a month, if the performance is too poor, you will be trained locally for a month.
If you still can't meet the requirements after three months of training, you will be registered, and if you can't meet the military training requirements for three consecutive years, the soldier will be disqualified from inheriting the family title! The punishment was quite severe, and it was also to motivate the cultivation of the children of the princes and nobles and maintain the combat strength and morale of the Ming Dynasty.
Hanging on an isolated island, if there was no wide sea barrier and the interference of the strong people of the Sea Clan, the sailors of the Great Manchurian would have been killed long ago, and only by allowing the heirs from generation to generation to maintain this vigilance and morale can they maintain the foundation of the Great Ming Dynasty, and one day kill back to the mainland of Kyushu to realize the ancestral wish of opposing Manchu and recovering the country.
Although the Ming Dynasty has always regarded the restoration of the Manchurian Dynasty as a lofty goal to inspire and educate the descendants of these descendants, except for the royal family surnamed Zhu, most of the courtiers and courtiers have actually given up the goal of driving the Manchurian restoration. Hanging on an isolated island, the national resources of the Ming Dynasty are getting farther and farther away from the Great Manchu Dynasty on the Kyushu mainland, and for them, it is already a great blessing to be able to use the wide sea to hold the land where the last party survives and keep the glory and wealth of their family.
When Tang Xiao's carriage came to the university mansion, the entire university mansion had become extremely noisy, and bursts of horseshoe and horsewhip laughter came from the wind, and the princes and disciples were extremely excited, especially those young soldiers who were conducting military training for the first time, and regarded this military training as a collective spring outing.
The princes and nobles of the Daming Dynasty, because of the inheritance of the title, most of them have been trained as warriors in the family since they were children, and they have been cultivated with various pills, and their physical fitness and martial arts cultivation have long been higher than ordinary civilians.
What's more, the general princes and nobles, there are as many as a dozen or even dozens of children in the family, among these dozens of people, there will be a few particularly excellent successors to the family's titles, and occasionally some heirs will not affect the family's titles even if they fail to meet the standards for three consecutive years.
Therefore, for them, this military training is indeed a group outing.
Although the three families of Xingguohou, Huhou, and Huguohou each lost a son, but the family Ding Xingwang, the third marquis was distressed, but he was not afraid of the family's defeat, but the Tang family was different, and it was rumored that Tang Yuan, the marquis of Zhenguo, accidentally lost his fertility after giving birth to Tang Xiao, so he only had one son under his knees.
Tang Xiao is fifteen years old this year, and he will be sixteen years old in less than two months, and he must participate in the military training organized by the university this year.
Of course, they hope that the Nine Heavens of the Proud World will devour the starry sky Divine Seal Throne Back to Book
