Chapter 454: Reward

Zhu Gaochi's temperament is completely different from Zhu Di's.

Zhu Di is good at martial arts.

But Zhu Gaochi loves to read more and likes to be quiet.

This is also something that Zhu Di is very unwilling to see.

For an emperor who won the world on horseback, if the descendants of later generations are too weak or despise martial arts, it will inevitably cause huge problems.

It's just that Zhu Di can't do anything about Zhu Gaochi, after all, this is human nature, not to mention that although he makes Zhu Di more worried, in other aspects, it can be said to be impeccable.

But where did Zhu Di think that Zhu Gaochi actually had an opinion on the model camp.

Subconsciously, Zhu Di put his hands behind his back, although he was calm on his face, but in his heart he seemed to be aroused by some thoughts.

So he paced slowly, and said, "You tell me more about it." ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "In the past, my Ming officers and soldiers were only blindly good at martial arts, and they were good at showing off their might, and the officers and soldiers among them were uneven. Therefore, gambling and disturbing the people are frequent. As for the military attachΓ©, if there is a strict one, it is fine, but if there is a *****, it is often sloppy, and the retainers are very worried about this. ”

Zhu Di's face showed a slight displeasure, such words to expose the shortcomings in the army in public were what Zhu Di did not want to see.

Although everyone may know it, it doesn't look good when you put it on the table.

Zhu Gaochi didn't seem to see Zhu Di's face, and then said: "The fundamental reason for this is that the military households in the army are already uneven, and since the establishment of the model battalion, there are also a lot of military horses recruiting strong men, but ...... In reality, the situation is even less than ideal. ”

Zhu Di said: "Oh? ”

Seeing that Zhu Di's gaze became aggressive.

The ministers all lowered their heads and didn't say a word, and they couldn't help admiring Zhu Gaochi's boldness at this time.

In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not have such courage.

You must know that His Majesty often asks about the soldiers and horses in the world, and it can be said that revealing these things is tantamount to slapping the face of Zhu Di, the world's biggest generalissimo.

But Zhu Gaochi didn't care about this, he continued with a deep groan: "Erchen has analyzed these reasons, because since the Song Dynasty, it has been popular to stab and fill the army, so most of the soldiers in the imperial court have been broken or criminal. ”

"These people...... It is already casual, once they enter the camp, if the officials do not restrain it, then it will be a casual trend, if it is just a gathering of people to gamble, it is just lazy, but once they encounter an opportunity, they will inevitably bully the people, and even kill the good and take the lead. Such a vicious disease in the army, when the sons read the scriptures and history, they really felt a lot. ”

Zhu Di's face turned red when he heard this.

Of course, Zhu Di is also aware of these things, but on the other hand, he feels that the vast majority of the army has always been like this, after all, the elite is only a minority, and the old Zhu family relies on this to get the world.

What's more, the prince's words and deeds represent the attitude of the future after taking power. These words, I am afraid that many military ministers have begun to memorize them now! After all...... According to His Royal Highness the Prince's current attitude, it is inevitable that he will settle accounts after the autumn in the future.

Zhu Di said surgingly: "Are you finished?" ”

Zhu Gaochi shook his head: "Erchen hasn't finished yet." ”

Zhu Di only hummed, noncommittal.

Zhu Gaochi said: "Because of this, there is a proverb among the people, which is called to be a good man and not a soldier." Therefore, such problems can be said to be difficult to return, and there are many vices. ”

Zhu Di pursed his lips and did not respond.

Zhang Anshi looked at Zhu Di's face cautiously, and Zhang Anshi at this time couldn't guess His Majesty's thoughts.

His Majesty looked unhappy, but he did not say anything to stop the prince.

Zhu Gaochi immediately said: "Keerchen never thought that the model battalion would solve this stubborn disease, and this is the difference between the model battalion and all the military horses in the world. ”

Zhu Gaochi continued: "Erchen was in the model camp, and only then did he find out that most of the people in the model camp were from good families. ”

Zhu Dihu said suspiciously: "It's a good family, what's so strange?" ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "Since the Song Dynasty, it has been difficult to recruit sons of good families to serve in the army. Is this an edict that can be finalized? ”

Zhu Gaochi asked unceremoniously.

Zhu Di was dumbfounded for a while, he faintly felt that Zhu Gaochi, a kid, had a lot of courage.

Zhang Anshi stood aside with an innocent face, blinking desperately with a pair of eyes, as if to say, this can't be wronged on my head, this must have nothing to do with me.

Zhu Gaochi continued: "The model battalion captains and others that Ke Erchen contacted knew their family background and identity, although they didn't dare to say that their family background was solid, but most of them were ...... The family has a lot of money and a clean family background. And most of them are enthusiastic to enter the camp, and they have also gone through the selection of the model camp, so they are lucky to be selected, do you know why this is? ”

Historically, the monarchs and ministers were only interested in the firearms of the model battalion, and they could be said to have been not very enthusiastic about other aspects of the model battalion.

Of course, this is not malicious at all. Rather, it is because the firearms of the model battalion are so brilliant that they have attracted everyone's attention, and they are naturally convinced that the combat effectiveness of the model battalion comes from this.

Zhu Gaochi obviously didn't wait for Zhu Di's answer, he asked this, so he asked himself: "This is because the sons of good families are convinced that once they can enter the camp, not only will they not be contaminated with the bad habits in the army, but will make their children more willing to bear hardships and stand hard work, and they are also convinced that even if they can't make military achievements and gain any grace, after these years of military service, after entering the camp, this camp can also educate their children, so that they will not worry about their livelihood in the future." ”

Zhu Di was surprised when he heard this: "Huh? ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "For example, in the model battalion, there are different courses according to different arms. The infantry battalion learned a lot of vocabulary and geography, and in addition to drills, there were not only two hours a day to study, but also homework. ”

"The artillery battalion is different, and the artillery battalion is arithmetic."

"There is also a military medical clinic, which teaches the way of treatment and care."

"In addition, there are cavalry scouts, and what they have learned, in addition to some of the knowledge of horses, is about surveying the terrain, drawing drawings, mathematics, diction, and so on."

"Father, in this model battalion, they are all teaching very seriously, and after entering the camp, the officers and soldiers are not very different, most of them eat and wear, and there is not much difference, because of this, the love of the robe is quite deep. The drills in this army are boring, and most of the teachings taught by them are erudite and knowledgeable, and the homework of the lieutenants is equal to the drills, and in the model battalion, on the contrary, they can be distracted, even if they are not easy to learn, they can roughly master these knowledge, and if they are carefully studied, it is even more extraordinary. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, his face stretched slightly.

He stared at Zhu Gaochi, as if he wanted to re-understand the meaning of his son.

Zhu Gaochi continued to say seriously: "Once you enter the camp, you can develop good habits, not be contaminated with bad habits, and you can learn a lot of knowledge. Get along day and night on weekdays, and the robes can not only increase each other's knowledge, but even if they return to their hometowns in the future, they will have a lot of close friends. Such people, even if they can't make military achievements, so as to be promoted to knighthood. When you are discharged from the army and out of the camp, it is not a problem to find a way out. ”

After a pause, he said again: "Father, how many people can read and write?" How many people are proficient in calculations? How many people are trustworthy? People like this, once out of the camp, are talents! ”

"Erchen has understood...... There were many merchants and officials in the Taiping Mansion, and the most important ones were such captains, who were often willing to be retained with high salaries. Therefore, the children of good families with innocent backgrounds are also proud to be able to enter the camp, and there are even many people who will enter the model camp, not only to serve the country, but also as a step forward, recruiting every year, all of them are enthusiastic. ”

"These innocent people are often timid in private fights, but brave in national wars, orders and prohibitions, once wartime, it is as fast as the wind, its Xu is like a forest, the invasion is like fire, not moving like a mountain, it is difficult to know like a yin, and it is like a thunderstorm."

Regarding Zhu Gaochi's opinion, Zhu Di was more surprised at the moment. When he heard this, he had already begun to think deeply.

And Zhu Gaochi obviously didn't stop there, he continued: "And after going out of the camp several times to practice, the sons found that they often did not commit any crimes against the people along the way, and they also despised the behavior of invading the people. On the one hand, it is the relationship between reading and reasoning in the camp. The second is that they are born into good families, and in their nature, they hate vices and things that disturb the people. ”

"Then there are the officials, who can often lead by example, and discipline is strict. Among them, Zhu Yong, Zhang Yuan, Qiu Songren, etc., all spent day and night in the camp, and were able to sleep and eat with the soldiers, so that they developed the habit of being a military attache in the camp. In addition, after having knowledge, it also greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, and every time the cavalry surveyed the terrain, the map often drawn was very accurate. After the artillery learned arithmetic, the accuracy of the artillery increased greatly, and the retainers heard that the same artillery, other military horses, can only be one or two out of ten dozen, while the artillery of the model battalion can achieve six or seven out of ten. ”

"The same is true of the infantry battalion foot soldiers, ordinary soldiers can complete orders according to the maps that have been distributed, because they can read the maps drawn. And when fighting in cooperation with other battalions, they can also achieve coordination, all because military orders can be accurately communicated and understood. ”

"Such a military horse is naturally very different from other military horses."

When Zhu Di heard this, he frowned slightly, but he was as silent as death.

After a long time, he muttered, "Really? I never imagined that the Model Camp would be so valuable. In this way, from recruitment, to training and study, to eating, drinking, and camping, everything has its subtlety? ”

Zhu Di is also a person who leads troops, and he is also a person who is good at leading soldiers, if ordinary people listen to these words, they may just be suspicious, but Zhu Di is very clear.

"I see." Zhu Di looked suddenly enlightened, nodded and said, "No wonder!" Hey, but I was painted in the lake, and I only saw firearms in my eyes. But as everyone knows, there are even more powerful ones. ”

At this time, Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi with a look of relief.

In the past, Zhu Gaochi hated the military, but he didn't expect that he would have such a unique opinion now.

It seems that going to the model camp not only cures obesity, but also has this effect.

Zhu Di was overjoyed, but said: "What the prince said is very reasonable, and I am not as good as such a unique opinion." ”

Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said: "Erchen is dead, this is just some crude knowledge......

Zhu Di is an atmospheric person, shook his head with a smile and said: "You will succeed the great unification in the future, if you can have this insight, my Ming Dynasty will be enough to be able to clear the armed forces and shock the world." ”

This compliment exceeded everyone's expectations.

This sudden and extraordinary compliment made Zhu Gaochi at a loss for a while, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

Zhu Di laughed and said, "The prince is very good!" The model battalion is indeed a model, Zhang Qing ...... It's a great achievement. ”

Today's incident, Zhang Anshi is actually quite unexpected.

At this time, hearing His Majesty mention him, Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister is very ashamed, in fact, this is not a merit, the main thing is that the soldiers are willing to work hard." ”

Zhu Di glanced at Zhang Anshi appreciatively: "If you just move your mouth, anyone can say that you are ugly." But Zhang Qingcao created this model camp, and if you can have today, you can see your skills, you...... It's just that I'm too modest on weekdays, so that I don't know this from the prince. ”

Zhang Anshi said honestly: "The minister is clumsy and not good at words on weekdays, not to mention that this is not a ......"

Zhu Di waved his hand and said, "Okay, stop being verbose." You're starting a business! I also know that among them, Zhu Yong, Zhang Xuan, Qiu Songren, etc., have contributed a lot. Come and call them, and I will give them a reward. ”

The ministers looked at Zhu Di, and soon someone caught Zhu Di's thoughts.

His Majesty has clearly been moved by what has been said.

In other words, the words of the crown prince made His Majesty extremely interested in the mechanism of the model camp.

However, His Majesty did not choose to let the crown prince or Zhang Anshi draw up the charter, or let Jin Zhong, the secretary of the military department, come to interrogate.

It is clear that His Majesty is well aware that it will not be easy to do this. And there are so many military horses in the Ming Dynasty, and there are many generals and veterans, all of whom were born with His Majesty Jing Nan back then.

These people toiled even if they didn't have merit.

Once an order is directly issued and the soldiers and horses are taught to follow suit, on the one hand, there may not be so much manpower and material resources, and on the other hand, it means that a large number of people may be laid off.

This is obviously unbearable for Zhu Di.

After all, it is difficult to explain to these old partners, and in addition, it is also time-consuming and laborious.

However, His Majesty is obviously not completely inactive, and at this time, it is rare to summon the commander of the model battalion, so naturally there is a special way to show them and let them continue to be models.

In this way, let everyone understand His Majesty's thoughts on their own, and even if His Majesty did not force them, he also taught them to consciously move slowly closer to the direction of the model battalion, so that they could learn the way of training in this model battalion.

The so-called emperor's mind is like this, his words and deeds represent the future direction of the world's major politics, if you can figure out these meanings and do it in this direction, then it will not be difficult to get ahead.

If you can't figure it out, go the other way, and follow the old Zhu family's mind of not raising idlers, you may have to walk around without eating.

The ministers in this tent are not all the best people in a million, and their hearts are already transparent at this time.

In a short time, several people came.

In addition to Zhu Yong and the three of them, they are the chief teacher of the camp, Xi Gu Xingzu, and in addition, there are several people from thousands of households in the camp.

Everyone saluted Zhu Di in an orderly manner, and many people were actually very apprehensive.

Everyone knows what the prince is doing in the camp.

The problem is that in the past few months, they have made Zhu Gaochi suffer.

Although...... This is the meaning of His Royal Highness the King of the County, but His Majesty is very kind to His Royal Highness the King of the County, and the prince is the brother-in-law of His Royal Highness the King of the County, so he may be really annoyed and will not punish the King of the County, but these people may not be able to eat and walk around.

Zhu Di swept everyone, his eyes were gloomy, and his eyes fell on Qiu Song's body, and he said, "Qiu Song." ”

"Humble." Qiu Song shouted, like a bell.

The sound was so deafening that some people even trembled in fright.

Zhu Di said expressionlessly: "This time you didn't bring gunpowder to meet the driver." ”

Zhu Yong and a few of them suddenly became terrified, isn't this a clear and deliberate thorn?

Who doesn't know that Qiu Song has a bad brain? Your Majesty, you know! Now I summoned Qiu Song, but when I asked about this, didn't I just want to deliberately find a way to rectify it?

Qiu Song's face still did not change, and he shook his head and said, "No." ”

"It's rare." Zhu Di smiled and said, "I still thought that you still couldn't change this problem." ”

After that, he no longer talked to Qiu Song, but looked at the first few military attaches behind him and asked one of them: "What is your name?" ”

This person hurriedly said respectfully: "Zhao Jing, the infantry of the inferior model battalion, see Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Di nodded at him: "Where are you from?" ”

"The humble is a Songjiang person."

Zhu Di said: "What kind of business do your parents do? ”

Zhao Jing almost didn't have the heart to think about it, but subconsciously replied: "The family farms for a living." ”

Zhu Di continued to ask: "How many years have you been in the army?" ”

"The model battalion has been serving in the battalion for 10 years since its establishment."

Zhu Di bowed: "Stand up, I will take a look." ”

Zhao Jing was not afraid, he stood up, he was wearing a stomach, but his body was strong and burly, full of high-spirited color.

Zhu Di smiled and said, "This is also a strong man, compared to the Navarat warrior Urig, he is even better." I need such a person the most, you can be a thousand households, you must have made a lot of contributions, what title is given now? ”

Zhao Jing said truthfully: "I have never won a knighthood." ”

Zhu Di said: "Uncle Feng, I said it! ”

Zhao Jing's face changed slightly.

Ministers: "......"

Zhu Di said with a smile: "Such a model thousand households, being crowned an earl, is already considered a condescending talent." ”

After that, he glared at this Zhao Jing and said, "Don't thank you yet?" ”

This is equivalent to suddenly forcing a treasure into Zhao Jing's hands, and he is afraid that Zhao Jing will regret it and refuse to accept it.

Obviously, Zhu Di was also afraid that some ministers would stand up and talk more at this time, so he hurriedly let this Zhao Jing thank him.

After all, thanks to the grace, this grace will be difficult to collect.

I can't say thank you, you also said that I thought about this red envelope, you give it back to me, and I will give it next time.
