The Eight Banners soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were composed of the Eight Banners of Manzhou, the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Eight Banners of Han Army, and a total of twenty-four banners. The Eight Banners of Han Army was formed at the latest, and were formed by Huang Taiji in the seventh year of Chongde. Although they were all bannermen, their status among the Eight Banners was the lightest. They lived in the Eight Banners of Manzhou and the Eight Banners of Mongolia. After the Eight Banners of Mongolia, people have always been carried into the Han army flag first, then into the Manzhou flag, and then into the Shangsan Banner.

Although the eight banners of the Han army had a light status, they had a large number of soldiers. The quota was 167 Niulu when entering the pass, which was higher than the eight Mongolian banners. This is because the eight banners of the Han army were good at using firearms and their combat power was better than the eight Mongolian banners. The musketeers and artillery of the Qing Dynasty, such as the firearm camps of the capital, mostly came from the Han army flags.

Although Zhenwu's words were suspected of favoring the Han military flag, it was an indisputable fact. Yinyi still disagreed. It is true that the Han military flag attaches importance to firearms, but the riding and shooting are not that bad. There were not many people in the Knight military flagsman in the Knight Camp who were not good at shooting skills, but he dared not say this. Nian Gengyao and Yue Zhongqi also belonged to the Han military flag. When they said this, they were not pleased with each other. Therefore, he hurriedly bowed and said, "I am the decree."

Nian Gengyao and Yue Zhongqi were secretly happy. Zhenwu attached great importance to firearms. Not only vigorously promoted the improvement of firearms, but also actually promoted the integration of Manchuria, Mongolian and Han in the navy. Now he is obviously favoring the Han military flag. It seems that the new guard army will sooner or later vigorously promote the integration of Manchuria, Mongolian and Han in the navy, which is a great thing for the Han military flagmen.

Zhenwu looked at the three of them with a smile, and then asked, "How is the training of the New Guard Army?"

Along the way, Yin Yi expected that Zhenwu would definitely ask about the training situation, so he was prepared and said, "Go back to the emperor. Since the live-fire training, after seeing the power of the improved firearm, 20,000 people from the New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' Full-Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' New Guards' Full-Guards' New Guards' All-in-One Thing has been trained spontaneously and there is no need to worry too much."

Nian Gengyao immediately said: "The new army of the Imperial Guard not only has strict military appearance, strict military discipline, but also has good training. It is hard-working. Compared with the Eight Banners Forbidden Brigade stationed in Beijing, it is a different story. It is a foolish slave. I really don't understand why the gap between them is so big."

I really didn't see it normally. Nian Gengyao's flattery level was not low this time. Zhenwu smiled slightly before saying, "Since I don't understand, then I will summarize it carefully and find out the reasons carefully. As a general, I must be diligent in thinking, good at discovering problems and solving problems."

"The emperor's teachings are kept in mind by the servants and dare not let down the emperor's heavy responsibilities." Nian Gengyao hurriedly bowed.

Yue Zhongqi bowed and said, "Report to the emperor. According to this training method, a year later, the new guard army in the Imperial Guard will definitely be a powerful army that is hard to come by. However, the last general is worried about whether the new guard army will rely too much on firearms in the future. What is worried about is that because the firearms are powerful, the new guard army will breed a kind of arrogance. As the saying goes, a arrogant army will be defeated. The new guard army has not been trained. It is also difficult to temper a heroic army in hundreds of battles."

After hearing this, Nian Gengyao couldn't help but glance at Yue Zhongqi. This man was transferred to the new army of the Imperial Guards by Zhenwu himself, and he was entrusted with important tasks as an equal to him. When he was the governor of Sichuan, Yue Zhongqi was just a military position changed by donations and served as a guerrilla in the Central Francisco. He relied on his son Yue Shenglong, who was the admiral of Sichuan. He was just an unknown person. He originally thought that Zhenwu promoted him and transferred him to the new army of the Imperial Guards to check and balance, because everyone in the capital knew that Nian Gengyao and Yue Shenglong were incompatible. Now it seems that it is not exactly the case. This kid still has some stuff in his belly.

Zhenwu glanced at Yue Zhongqi with great appreciation. It was not a false reputation for being called a "master of martial arts officials in the three dynasties". How old he is now? It is indeed rare to have such insights in his life under thirty years old. It seems that a general still needs to have a certain talent.

After pondering for a moment, Zhenwu said slowly: "I have said on different occasions that whether an army is powerful or elite, whether it can win every battle, it is not whether the weapons are sharp, it is whether the generals and soldiers have the courage to die, and whether they have the courage to die, and whether they have the courage to fight.

Speaking of short-term soldiers, I will tell you in advance that the Shanghai Army Workshop has created bayonets that can be easily loaded and unloaded on muskets. I have looked at the sample and it is very easy to use. I have ordered the replacement of all muskets. In the future, all muskets are equipped with bayonets. Bayonet fights, that is, short-term soldiers. We must train vigorously in the future. Not only the skills of thorns, but more importantly the courage of thorns. I do not want the new guard army to train a group of soldiers who only rely on firearms to attack remotely. In addition, the new cavalry sabers have also been formed and will be mass-produced soon. The immediate chop training also needs to be strengthened."

I heard that the muskets could be equipped with bayonets. Nian Gengyao and Yue Zhongqi were both happy. The biggest flaw of muskets is that they cannot fight in close combat, and close combat is precisely the most capable of cultivating the courage of soldiers. They have all led soldiers and know that an army that dares not be a strong army at all, and fighting with the wind is feasible. Once they encounter evenly matched opponents, they will collapse immediately.

Although neither of them had seen the style of bayonets, as long as they could install a short blade about one foot long on the musket, the musketeers would not have no power to fight back during close combat. However, they were not very concerned about the new sabre.

Zhenwu paused for a moment before continuing: "The establishment of a new army of Imperial Guards is mainly aimed at Tsarist Russia. It is a strong European army. Not only has powerful cavalry, but also firearms are no inferior to the new army of Imperial Guards. You must be mentally prepared enough to not be complacent because the new firearms are better than bows and arrows and firearms in the firearms.

Just because of the excellent weapons and hard training, it is not enough to train an elite army. Strong soldiers are not trained, but are fought. Without going through actual combat, no matter how well they are trained, they can only be used as Luanyi Guards.

There are opportunities for actual combat. At present, your mission is to instill fine traditions in the new army of the Imperial Guards. You must take time to study the strong army of all dynasties, Xiang Yu's 8,000 soldiers, Gao Shun's camp, Xie Xuanbei's army, Tang Dynasty border defense army, Shence army, Yue Fei's Yue family army, Qi Jiguang's Qi family army, and you must be good at learning from each family's strengths and weaknesses.

I have been leading the navy for many years and have some experience. If an army wants to be invincible, it will be invincible and invincible. If it wants to become a powerful army in all battles, it must have the belief of winning, a strong fighting will, an impressive war history, and a fine and glorious tradition. These things are combined. They are the soul of an army!

There is a saying that the army, generals, and soldiers are replaced one after another, but as long as the history of war, tradition, fighting will and beliefs continue from generation to generation, the military spirit of this army will be there. If the military spirit does not disperse, the army will not decline.

My Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty are not short of a proud history of war and a belief in winning, as well as the courage to fight against each other and a fine tradition. Why have they been glorious for only twenty years? Why have they declined so quickly? It is because these good experiences have not been inherited and cannot be continued from generation to generation.

If I want to build the Qing Dynasty Royal Navy and the Imperial Guards into a long-lasting army, I must learn this lesson. The Imperial Guards must be like the navy and be good at summarizing. Whether it is training or actual combat, no matter how big or small the war is, we must summarize and summarize, find out our strengths and find shortcomings, and record all war history. We must also be good at setting an example and widely publicize.

In the future, every group of new recruits will join the army in addition to training. Before and after the war, they will strengthen their studies and learn the fine traditions of the army. Generals at all levels must also earnestly carry out the education and training of new recruits.

As the saying goes, generals are the courage of soldiers, and generals are the soul of the army. You can bring out any kind of soldiers. Therefore, you must strictly require generals at all levels, whether in training or actual combat. Generals at all levels must do their own principles and lead by example. As the first general of the new army of the Imperial Guards, I hope you can bring glorious war history to this army and create a fine tradition. I hope you will be remembered forever because of this army."

After hearing Zhenwu's remarks, Yinyi, Nian Gengyao, and Yue Zhongqi were all admired. Zhenwu was not a talk on paper. The navy was created by him. He also brought out many of the fine styles of the navy. When the navy fought against the Spanish fleet in Penghu for the first time, Zhenwu stood up with raindrops to boost morale. Lin Wei, the navy, gathered under the Spanish gun gate, was also influenced by him. It is no wonder that the navy enthusiastically admired Zhenwu.

The three of them had never thought that Zhenwu had thought so long and wanted to build the Navy and the New Guards into two long-lasting battle-making troops. If so, as the first generals of the army, they would have been passed down from generation to generation due to their brilliant achievements. When they thought of this, the three of them felt hot all over.

The three of them did not dare to think too much, so they knelt down together. Yin Yi led the leader and said, "The emperor's sincere teachings must be kept in mind. After returning to the camp, they will formulate detailed systems and effectively carry out training of the new guard army and the training of generals to live up to the emperor's trust."

After talking about this big article in one breath, Zhenwu didn't feel dry. After taking two sips of tea, he said, "The armor is on your body, there is no need to be too polite, and you can calm your body." After the three of them got up, he pondered and said, "I summoned you this time to pull out the new army of the imperial guards to practice. The morning after the next morning, Yin Yi led 4,000 people to Tongzhou to block all large and small warehouses in Tongzhou, and not allowed a single rice to enter and exit. Nian Gengyao led 3,000 people to Fuxin Cang, Xingping Cang, and sea transport warehouse. Yue Zhongqi led 3,000 people to Lumi Cang, Nanxin Cang, and Old Taicang.

After entering each warehouse, quickly control the entire warehouse yard, and seal them all, and all accounts will be sealed. We must prevent people with ulterior motives from taking the opportunity to destroy accounts or set fire to the warehouse. But if any news is leaked, I will remove your errands and the Nine Gate Admiral Longkodo. "

This is to vigorously clean up and rectify the warehouses in the capital and Tongzhou! Yin Yi was shocked and couldn't help but complain secretly. He knew very well that the Jiujiu Yinzhen was in the food business. If he reported the news, he would not only be unable to escape from the relationship, but also affect Longkodo, Nian Gengyao, Yue Zhongqi, and even the starling brother might be implicated. For nothing, he could only join forces with the starling brother to plead for the Jiujiu afterwards. The Fourteenth is not a person who is not indifferent to his old love. The worst result is to affect the Jiujiu's promotion this time.

The three of them dared not hesitate at the moment and hurriedly bowed together and said, "I will receive the order."

Zhenwu said with a slight hint: "This is the first time that the new guards have shown their faces in the capital. Don't let the capital officials and gentry and people down, just kneel down."

"I am honored by the ministers." The three of them hurriedly bowed and bowed and retreated.

After leaving Jingyun Gate, seeing that Yinyou was not in high spirits, Nian Gengyao thought about it and said tentatively: "Master Ten, are you worried about Master Ninth?"

Yinyi glanced at him, but he didn't say anything. Nian Gengyao's original wife was Mingzhu's granddaughter, and her second wife was the second daughter of Su Yan, and she was both a relative of Lao Jiu and herself. But at the same time, he was the fourth son's disciple. After Lao Zi lost power, he joined Zhenwu's disciple under the recommendation of Lao Zi's thirteen. This person has been dealing with several brothers in recent years, and it is not surprising that he has some understanding of Lao Jiu Yinzhen's affairs. In the past six months, the relationship between the two has also improved greatly. However, when asking this in front of Yue Zhongqi, it was a bit unlucky.

Seeing Yinyi pondering and silent, Nian Gengyao smiled and said with a pity: "Thirteenth Master, I will be arrogant. If you care about it, you will be confused. In fact, you don't have to worry about Master Jiu."

Hum? Yinyi glanced at him in surprise, deliberately slowed down, and smiled and said, "You kid is smart. What do you think? Tell me what you have."

Nian Gengyao also slowed down and cautiously lagged behind half a step back. He said: "Jiu Master is good at managing. Who is the noble of the royal family in the capital? Naturally, the emperor also knows it well. If the emperor intends to protect it, it is just a matter of one sentence. If the emperor does not want to protect it, what is the benefit of the Tenth Master's concern?"

After a slight pause, he continued: "The emperor values ​​love and friendship, how can he ignore Master Quan Jiu? Besides, the Tianjin Military Workshop is now at the forefront. Master Ten will relax his mind. This move is very big and the involvement will be widespread. It is a simple matter to pick one or two people out."

"This is reasonable." Yin Yi nodded slightly. Lao Jiu was busy in Tianjin military workshops. Lao Si could not make him look ugly at this critical moment.

Seeing that Yinyi's expression relaxed, Nian Gengyao also secretly relaxed. It was just a trivial matter to transfer the new army of the Imperial Guards to various warehouses. Zhenwu could have issued an order half a day in advance, so he did not worry about the news leak, but why did he issue an order two days in advance? This is intentional temptation! This is a provocation, and he dare not say it, but from this point, it can be seen that the emperor is determined to suppress the Eighth Master Party, and he must keep a distance from them in the future. {Piaotian Wenxue www.piaotian.net Thanks to all book friends for their support, your support is our greatest motivation}
