Chapter 025 It's not difficult to win the hearts of the military
As Cheng Shijie gave the order to assemble, the soldiers who were originally chatting on the school field immediately gathered like springs and quickly gathered towards the point of the school field.
Cheng Shijie looked at the stopwatch on his mobile phone, and in just one hundred and eighty-one seconds, more than 400 people had already lined up. The team was neat, but it was miserable.
It's not the formation that's miserable, it's the way everyone looks. Cheng Shijie recruited these family soldiers, nominally family soldiers, but in fact, he did not distribute military uniforms, because he did not have them, he was in too much hurry at the beginning, and he forgot to arrange them.
As a result, the current team does not look like an army at all, two-thirds of them are wearing tattered beggar clothes, and one-third are wearing faded Ming army-style mandarin duck battle jackets, of course, these mandarin duck battle jackets are also rotten.
Cheng Shijie frowned slightly: "I've been training for nearly a month, and it's still like this?" ”
Shen Mingyu was a little aggrieved: "They have only trained for less than a month, and of course their performance is not satisfactory. ”
"It's going to take a year or two so long!?"
Cheng Shijie thought about military training too simply, and in the half month of military training for later generations of students, at least during the military training exercise, he performed well. But the problem is that the knowledge of future generations of students is there, at least the left and right can be distinguished.
And ninety percent of his family soldiers are illiterate, and almost all of them are left and right.
Shen Mingyu explained: "This is already good. The vast majority of people are illiterate, and it is not easy to make them distinguish between east, west, north, south, front, back, and left, and it is even more difficult for them to understand the flags, remember to beat the drum and charge, and retreat with gold. As for building camps, setting traps to keep horses away, forming military formations, and coordinating multiple arms...... It may take a few years to slowly explore and run in. ”
Cheng Shijie was silent on the surface, but he was panicked in his heart.
It is now the end of August, which means that on the Liaodong side, the battle of Daling River should be fought, when Zu Dashou could not withstand Huang Taiji's attack, let the Guanning army support Daling River with refueling tactics three times before and after, and then Zhang Chun led 40,000 foot cavalry to fight against the water.
It's time for the imperial court to recruit the Dongjiang Army in Shandong to support Dalinghe, and Kong Youde, who was forced to be anxious, should rebel, and he still has a woolen yarn?
Thinking of this, Cheng Shijie said: "Soldiers, disband!" ”
Shen Mingyu felt inexplicably wonderful, and Zhang Yu was also puzzled.
Cheng Shijie left the barracks with his hands behind his back, but returned directly to the Qianhu Mansion.
If you want to train an army, you need good equipment and good morale, and these soldiers are willing to follow Cheng Shijie, because Cheng Shijie gives them food, so that they can eat well, and they still have silver every month.
But if you want these young people to train into elites and dare to fight hard in the next troubled times, you need to inject soul into this army.
The matter of the soul is not in a hurry for the time being, he still has time, but the uniform clothing is a good way to boost morale.
"Zhang Baishu!"
"Inferior!"
"I've got a mission for you!"
Cheng Shijie muttered: "You go and buy a batch of cloth, and make 800 sets of military uniforms in advance!" ”
"But it's not easy to make 800 sets of military uniforms!"
At this moment, Zhou Yandong, the deputy Qianhu, came in, and he bowed down and said, "Lord Qianhu, our salt factory has produced salt!" ”
"The first batch of salt is 1,600 stones, and I have someone transport it!"
"Zhang Baishu, you have people distribute it to each household, each household will send ten catties first, and save the rest!"
"Yes!"
"Brother Zhou, come and sit!"
Cheng Shijie put a glass teapot in front of Zhou Yandong.
Zhou Yandong stared straight at the glass teapot: "This is ......"
"I'll give you a new set!"
Cheng Shijie walked to the back room and took out a set of crystal tea sets from the last time, of course, the one without a production label.
Zhou Yandong said that he was embarrassed, but he quickly got it into his sleeve.
"Senhu-sama wants to buy cloth to make military uniforms?"
"yes!"
"But why buy cloth?"
"How can I get a military uniform if I don't buy cloth?"
"We are a thousand households."
"Except for some food now, our thousand-household house lacks everything!"
"We are lacking, but there is no shortage of warehouses in the command department, there are a lot of good things in there, but they don't usually take them out and use them."
Zhou Yandong said: "Commander Jin still takes these things in exchange for money, it will definitely not be possible to get them out in bundles, and if you are discovered, you will lose your head, but stuff a little money, and the whole dozen pieces can still come out, after all, weapons will also rust and wear out, and those guys in the warehouse are fine." As for the military uniform, in addition to our guard, ordinary people are not allowed to wear this thing, otherwise they will lose their heads, stuff them with some money, and change our thousands of households up and down, they also have a way! ”
may have taken the benefits of Cheng Shijie, and then Zhou Yandong gave Cheng Shijie some unspoken rules.
"My lord of a thousand households, looking at the whole world, there are no thousands of households who pay money to buy food to support soldiers!"
Zhou Yandong said: "There are hundreds of warehouses in Dengzhou City, large and small, and the warehouses are all rats, and there are many recruits. The best grain is five dollars of silver, and one stone of old grain in their hands will give them at most two dollars of silver, and this comes and goes, but there is too much money left! ”
Cheng Shijie got up again, walked into the house, and picked up a small box, which was full of crystal jewelry left over from before, including bracelets, necklaces, and ingots made of crystal.
"Brother Zhou, I'll give you these things, I want a military uniform and a weapon, can you do it!" 、
"These ......"
"That's right!"
"Senho-sama, just wait!"
Zhou Yandong picked up the box, for fear that Cheng Shijie would regret it.
In Zhou Yandong's opinion, Cheng Shijie is rich and doesn't take money seriously.
……
"Look forward, stand upright, and take a ......"
"Count!"
"One, two, three, four......"
"Seventeen, he shouted seventeen, you are eighteen, eighteen, eighteen, remember!"
"Grass!"
"Turn left, turn left, turn right!"
"Turn back!"
"Walk forward!"
"How many times have I been taught, but I still can't tell the difference!"
As a small box of crystals was dispersed, Cheng Shijie's family soldiers took on a new look, and everyone had two new uniforms, and finally had the appearance that the army should have.
These soldiers in Xinrong uniforms didn't have time to be happy, but Cheng Shijie came to train them, and he downloaded a lot of videos of military training and student military training on his mobile phone.
Draw a scoop with a gourd, who wouldn't.
Cheng Shijie is seriously training the army, but the soldiers below are being trained miserably.
Before dawn in the morning, he started a five-kilometer long-distance run, and then tired the family soldiers out of breath, and continued to practice for two hours after breakfast.
Standing under the scorching sun, it doesn't taste good.
Song Kangnian stood in the shade of the tree and looked at Cheng Shijie training with great interest.
"Senhe-sama is really messing around!"
Shen Mingyu was deprived of the right to train troops, which made him a little resistant in his heart.
"Nonsense?"
Song Kangnian stared at Shen Mingyu and said, "If this is also nonsense, then the best military training method in the world is also nonsense......"
"Mr. Song, you don't know how to train soldiers!"
"Song doesn't know how to train soldiers, but he understands people's hearts, and now Lord Qianhu has won the hearts of the army, you see that he trained the soldiers so hard, but who has ever spoken half a sentence?"
Shen Mingyu thought about it, it was really.
There are not a few soldiers who Cheng Shijie has beaten with his own hands, and he has kicked a lot of butts, but why don't they resist? Even if you don't dare to contradict Cheng Shijie, you should be able to quit?
The problem is, there really isn't.
Cheng Shijie really didn't do much, he gave Ding Bing as much food as he could every day, even if he could eat ten catties of food for one meal, he would still give it.
Secondly, there is a clear distinction between rewards and punishments.
Sufficient food and salary, clear rewards and punishments, on these two points, as long as you know a little bit about military affairs, you can say three, four, five or six, but the problem is really done, too little.
And it was Cheng Shijie who did it.
Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, almost all the officials of the thousand households are thinking about money, and only Cheng Shijie is preparing for war.
