Chapter 134: Life Mentor General Zhang Lao
As a lover of cold weapons, not to mention being proficient in all martial arts, such as swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, at least, several great men in history have to study, and Qi Jiguang's new book of Ji Xiao... This is like saying that he has studied the films of Teacher Aoi and Teacher Longze. At least, there are still a few pieces of tissues.
As a cold weapon enthusiast who has fought all the armor, Kang Fei has also studied the fake model of Grandpa Qi's life. Before he came across it, he was full of dissatisfaction with Qi Jiguang played by Zhao Wenzhuo. In history, Qi Jiguang often caused zero casualties. Why did you get beaten so badly by Japanese pirates in the movie? It's really useless that you played the Nine Gate Admiral so handsomely. Can you be so handsome? Did you send me to the Ming Dynasty to be undercover?
Of course, it is not that Qi Jiguang has never been beaten, and Grandpa Qi also had the experience of being beaten to escape alone. Of course, this escape alone does not mean that he left his subordinates and ran away, but that his subordinates ran away, leaving him with only one commander, slashing a few of them, then slaying a few of them, then running away.
When Qi Jiguang first arrived in Zhejiang to fight against the Japanese, the entire Zhejiang garrison military system was corrupt, and it was impossible to rely on the garrison military to fight.
I have to say that Grandpa Qi is a smart person. He visited some local [Haojia], and then he immediately had established subordinates.
You know, Grandpa Qi and Kang Fei are of the same age as Kang Fei, and he will come to Zhejiang to fight against the Japanese in about a few years. A young man in his twenties has done this and has to praise his emotional intelligence. Of course, from this point, we can see why he is so flattering to Zhang Juzheng in the future and writes [The Top of the Favor] when Zhang Juzheng was in charge. When he was in charge, Qi Jiguang could say that he would be in the wind and rain.
Of course, no matter how smart he is, a young man in his twenties will always be fooled.
He recruited soldiers in Chuzhou at that time. After visiting the rich, he had established Chuzhou soldiers. These Chuzhou soldiers could fight, but they often negotiated terms with Qi Jiguang. In addition, Shaoxing soldiers were not good, but Shaoxing soldiers dared not fight hand-to-hand. In addition, Taizhou soldiers were brave, but could only fight with the wind. When they encountered tenacious Japanese pirates, they would flee... These words were said by Qi Jiguang and Taizhou governor Tan Zili when they brag about it.
This is why he clearly said in Ji Xiao’s new book [after all, Chuzhou is the first, Yiwu is second, Taiwen is second, and Shaoxing is second], but he has to train Yiwu soldiers. Although Yiwu soldiers are not the best, Yiwu soldiers have one, good obedience. Isn’t this the most critical attribute of soldiers? Only this one makes Qi Jiguang determined to train soldiers.
Before practicing Yiwu soldiers, Qi Jiguang had never fought or lost the battle. Otherwise, why would he complain to Tan Zili about the Chuzhou soldiers who refused to fight to the death, Shaoxing soldiers did not dare to fight in the hands of hand, and Taizhou soldiers were not tenacious enough?
These are the lessons of Grandpa Qi’s blood and tears!
It is precisely because of this experience that Qi Jiguang had to train his own troops.
According to Kang Fei's estimate, Tang Jingchuan probably wanted to replicate this method and recruit soldiers directly in the local area, and he could use it by using it.
This method is not bad. After all, Qi Jiguang had fought several great victories before he trained the Yiwu army. Of course, when he trained the Qi family army, he often caused zero casualties.
He heard Zhang Dalang's words and scratched his head, and said to Zhang Dalang: "Brother Dalang, did Brother Tang take our Yangzhou Township Warriors and Cao Yong before, and there were all kinds of miscellaneous people, and there were tens of thousands of people? Why were he still thinking about recruiting soldiers?"
Looking at Kang Fei, Tang Jingchuan should actually calm down and practice his internal strength at this time.
Zhang Dalang curled his lips while walking underground, saying, "The master is a great man, and everyone is willing to follow the master to fight the Japanese pirates. However... a few days ago, a group of Cao Yongs ran away, but the master caught one of them. The master was furious and the leader was killed, and the rest were tied up and locked up. As a result, the people below were so upset that they almost exploded the camp. It was the Xiyong you used to help the master, and then they suppressed it."
Kang Fei was shocked when he heard this. It would not be enough? Has the situation been corrupted to this point?
Zhang Dalang looked up at Kang Fei sitting in the cold sedan chair, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "This place is neither Yangzhou Prefecture nor even Nanzhili. The locals are rural and unwilling to sell things to us. Everyone complained in private... Why not, Kang Fei, tell the master..."
After he said this, Kang Fei suddenly realized.
Yes.
It is said that soldiers defend their families and the country, but in this era, there is probably no concept of defending the country. Even if there is one, most people have no attitude. Protecting their families can make a fuss. However, this is right. This is not Yangzhou Prefecture, nor even Nanzhili. If it is not my family, what can I protect?
What he didn't know was that the local soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, especially those who passed through the border, were often treated extremely harshly.
First of all, you are not allowed to enter the city. Second, the court clearly stipulates that the supplies are subject to local discounts, and you have to be given only when you leave. In other words, do you want to eat hot food? You can buy them yourself. Some civil servants are bad and don’t give them directly.
These are all found in history books.
So, why don’t you put the blame on others? It’s like a divorce. Don’t say the man’s fault or the woman’s fault. This is both.
Why did those people vote in the late Ming Dynasty? The reason is very simple. Although the Qing Dynasty also did not treat you as a human being, the Qing Dynasty gave you money with ease and said as much as you say. They are also dogs. One is beaten and scolded if he can't eat enough, and the other is beaten and scolded but he can eat and drink enough...
Although Tang Jingchuan was the head of the Nanjing Ministry of War, he, as the head of the Ministry of War, was still in Nanzhili, but it was not very easy to work when he arrived in Huzhou.
Sitting on the cold sedan chair and pondered for a while, Kang Fei asked Zhang Dalang, how many people have escaped during this period?
Zhang Dalang held the clutch and wrench and pointed, "Our Yangzhou Guards are fine, but at least half of the people ran away..."
After hearing this, Kang Fei looked at Tang Jingchuan on the cold sedan chair in front, and felt very sympathetic to Brother Tang.
When he returned to the outskirts of the city, the old general Zhang Huan looked at it and joked, "Oh! What's wrong? I went there for a while, two drunks came back."
On the other side, Zhang Dalang naturally instructed the servants to carry Tang Jingchuan into the original room. The postmaster at the post station was having dinner. When he saw that it was the head of Tang, he quickly put down his bowls and chopsticks to serve him.
Kang Fei pulled the old general to ask for advice. When the old general heard this, he immediately said, "How new!" In the past, Zhou Zhibai and I suppressed Zhang Shiwang. Zhou Zhibai was the governor and the title of governor, and the title of Right Censor, so that we could suppress it. Do you think that the addition of governor was to suppress the arrogant general? It was wrong, to suppress the local civil servants. Otherwise, who would buy it? It would be strange that he, as the head of the Nanjing Ministry of War, could suppress the position.
After Kang Fei understood what the old general said, Tang Jingchuan was probably equivalent to Hou Liangping in "In the Name of People", and the governor Zhou Zhibai mentioned by the old general was probably Sha Ruijin.
He immediately bowed to the old general, "Dad, I understand after you say it... You are simply my life mentor."
