Chapter 116 The Great Training
…
As more and more people came back from the south, Han Qing asked Zhao Gou to come back to fight against the Jin Dynasty and support the Song family together. However, Zhao Gou still said that "Han Qing bullies the heaven and earth, destroys the country and holds the king; filthy palaces and bans, harms living beings; wolves are unkind and unkind, and sins are accumulated! Now a large gathering of righteous soldiers vows to wipe out Huaxia and kill all the evil spirits. Hope the righteous army to vent public anger together; support the royal family and save the people." The argument is that it has not yet gone north and crossed south along the Jianghuai area to arrange defense lines to confront the central army, which is well known.
There were many knowledgeable people who were heartbroken - they knew that the Song Dynasty was about to split, and even a civil war was about to break out!
Many people want to persuade Han Qing to restrain himself, but if he is a little unbearable, he will make a big plan.
However, before these people could say it, the Ministry of Rites spread the story, and Han Qing wanted to take concubines Wei Xian, Mrs. Xing, Tian Junjun and Jiang Junjun as concubines.
Everyone knows that this must be Han Qing's revenge on Zhao Gou's choice.
Soon, another important news came out, and the daughter of Zhao, the general of the Ministry of Rites, and the daughter of Zhao Song's royal relatives, moved to Ningde Palace to live.
This is a very strong political signal for people with high political sensitivity.
Previously, Han Qing invited Zhao Gou to return to Beijing, saying that he would give all the military power to Zhao Gou, and that he would govern the world with Zhao Gou, and even said that he would return the power to Zhao Chen with Zhao Gou in the future.
Although many people suspect that Han Qing has this statement, which is to deceive Zhao Gou back to Beijing, many people still have expectations and fantasies about this lie that is obviously a lie, hoping that Han Qing and Zhao Gou can assist Zhao Chen in the future to return power to Zhao Chen to peacefully reunify the Song Dynasty.
To take a step back, even if Han Qing deceived Zhao Gou, as long as Han Qing can deceive Zhao Gou back, China can be peacefully reunified.
This is definitely unfair to Zhao Gou and others of the Zhao family, but it is also a rare good thing in terms of national justice.
But now, as Zhao Gou beat him to death and refused to return to Beijing, he scolded Han Qing, and even confronted Han Qing. Han Qing also took Zhao Gou's mother and concubines as concubines, and accepted all the daughters of Zhao's royal relatives and relatives (both foxes for thousands of years, who can't tell that Han Qing moved all the daughters of Zhao's royal relatives and relatives to his mouth, proclaiming that these women are all my Han Qing). This is clearly a vengeful revenge and completely breaks with Zhao.
Many people have already understood that as long as Han Qing does not die, Zhao will definitely have no chance. Zhao Chen, the puppet emperor, must be even more puppet.
For those loyal to Zhao Song, their last glimmer of hope has been shattered.
As the supreme ruler, Han Qing's mind could not be focused only on fighting with Zhao.
At present, Han Qing gathered all the soldiers from the Central Plains to the capital as he wished, and nothing is more important than conquering these soldiers for his own use.
As for taking a few concubines and moving the daughter of Zhao's family and the daughter of Zhao Song's royal family to his mouth, some of them will help Han Qing handle it properly. At that time, he would not even have to take off his pants in person, and he would completely turn Zhao Ji, Zhao Huan, Zhao Gou and Zhao family members, and Zhao Song's royal relatives.
For Han Qing, the most urgent task is that only the soldiers and generals gathered in the capital need to deal with them themselves.
Therefore, he took Zhao Gou's mother, concubines as concubines and daughters of Zhao's family, and the daughters of Zhao Song's royal relatives to him. It was just an irrelevant episode during this period. Han Qing's real energy was still focused on the soldiers gathered in the capital.
Up to now, a total of more than 700,000 soldiers gathered in the capital have been nearly 800,000, and the capital has also added the inherent personal guards and the army. At this time, nearly one million troops have gathered.
In this case, not to mention that Zhao Gou, who was as timid as a mouse, did not dare to go north, even the Jin people would not dare to invade the south rashly. Not only that, Zhao Gou or the Jin people may be guarding against Han Qing's gathering troops to attack them.
Now lead these mobs to attack Song or fight against Jin?
Han Qing is not that stupid.
Zhao Gou and the Jin people don’t know, but Han Qing still doesn’t know that this million-dollar army is just an imaginary number, and now most of them are mobs.
The five largest armies gathered in the capital were: Wang Zaixing and Li Gui's troops in the Huai River Basin, Wang Shan's troops in Puzhou, Yang Jin's troops in Luoyang, Ding Jin's troops in Luoyang, and Cao Cheng's troops in Daozhou.
These five groups have combined, with more than 500,000, reaching 600,000.
However, these five divisions are more of refugees than rebels, and a large number of elderly, weak, women and children are flooded with them.
Han Qing ordered people to persuade the five troops, but in the end, only more than 115,000 people were willing to continue to serve in the army. All the rest wanted to be good people again. After screening, training and assessment by the instructors of the personal guards, they finally had more than 48,000 imperial guards, and all the rest became wing soldiers and village soldiers.
In comparison, the army of the Grand Marshal's Office, Zhai Xing and Zhai Jin's Zhai family army, the army of Xuzhou brought by Zhao Li, the army of Shandong soldiers brought by Li Cheng's army, Liu Yu and Liu Lin and their general Guan Sheng were considered the most elite. After persuasion, screening, training and assessment, they were only half eliminated, and eventually they won more than 35,000 imperial guards, more than 42,000 troops and more than 42,000 troops.
In addition, there are the men brought from the south by Han Shizhong, Liu Hao, Sun Zhaoyuan, Qian Gai, Zhang Shen, Yang Yizhong and others. After persuasion, screening, training and assessment, there were nearly 40,000 imperial guards, nearly 30,000 wing soldiers and village soldiers.
This is not over yet, because the three-month period stipulated by Han Qing has not yet arrived, so there should be some imperial guards, wing soldiers, town soldiers, militias, and Zhongyi militias coming to the capital to receive rewards and reorganizations of the court.
In addition, Han Qing ordered the Ministry of War to go to various places (mainly the Mesopotamian area) to recruit some brave men to supplement the army.
Han Qing predicted that he would eventually get 150,000 imperial guards and 200,000 wing troops. As for the village soldiers, they could not be counted in the sequence of regular troops. At best, they were some local security forces.
Han Qing ordered Zhao Jian to be the chief instructor, with elite soldiers of the personal guards as instructors, disrupting the 150,000 imperial guards and the 200,000 wing troops respectively, and then conducting corresponding training for them.
While training troops, Han Qing is also training generals.
Han Qing first gathered all the original generals and school of each army, and personally took the roster to find all the generals who had not been excavated, such as Niu Gao and Yao Xing who had not been excavated. At the same time, Han Qing also sent Yuwen Xuzhong to the army to inquire about those capable people, and then found all of these people.
After gathering all these people together, Han Qing set up a senior officer training office and a teaching battalion to train these people personally and teach them the methods of leading troops.
Of course, Han Qing is not too superstitious about his own abilities. While teaching others, Han Qing also pays great attention to learning from others, and everyone learns from each other's strengths and weaknesses.
In short, Han Qing used this precious time to fully contact his soldiers (Han Qing would also go to those recruit battalions to inspect from time to time), establish feelings for them, and conquer them with his outstanding military capabilities, and at the same time teach them advanced military concepts to open up their inherent military thinking...
