Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 169

Living in this turbulent world, there is nothing that cannot be pulled together and disintegrated. As long as you look at what you care about, you can use your own way to achieve the purpose for your own use.

For the Dongjiang Army at this stage, to be precise, it is Mao Wenlong's old troops. With the collapse of Mao Wenlong's mountain, they are forced to continue to serve Daming, and at the same time feel fear, resistance, and uneasiness. state.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, from Emperor Taizu Gao to the reign of Chongzhen, even though there are many maladministration and problems in the Ming Dynasty, the succession of the Zhengshuo Dynasty is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. After all, it is a small group of people who choose to rebel.

Before there is no way of life, no one will take the risk of beheading and choose to rebel against Ming Dynasty, just like the bandit forces that are currently raging in Shaanxi. Choose to rebel.

"Back to the topic just now."

Looking at the people with different expressions, Emperor Chongzhen said with a serious expression: "I am determined to set up a lecture hall in Xiyuan, and you generals who command the army will help each other with the generals of the Yongwei Battalion, the Front Guard of the Fujun, and the Jingwei." Mutual assistance, learn from each other's strengths, and carry out a three-month short-term training.

I will compile some teaching materials for martial arts lectures, how to help each other, how to learn from each other, depends on whether you can accept each other.

According to the idea in my heart, the lecture hall is initially divided into seven categories: infantry, riding, artillery, engineering, staff, military police, and teaching. Under the seven categories, the corresponding subject areas will be subdivided. The Military Aircraft Department will be reorganized as soon as possible.

Before the Martial Arts Hall is officially established, you all think about which field you are good at, and then you can choose that branch for further study.

Three months later, I will organize a final exam.

Those who have obtained the corresponding grades and successfully graduated from the first short-term training class in the Jiangwu Hall, will be awarded corresponding military positions based on the grades obtained in the exam, as well as their daily performance and previous military exploits.

As for those who have not achieved the corresponding results, I will give them another chance to conduct a one-year advanced study, and then conduct the corresponding assessment at that time. "

The army that wants to make the Ming Dynasty rot has a different mental outlook, has a durable combat power, and cultivates a team of full-time professional officers. It is a path that must be taken.

Emperor Chongzhen's understanding of army building and the corresponding fields of the army was at most a half-knowledgeable existence, one bottle was dissatisfied, and half of the bottle was dangling, but the known main lines were not wrong.

The era of cold weapons will eventually be outlawed by the era of hot weapons, but what is before Emperor Chongzhen is how to cultivate a team of professional officers.

For this reason, Emperor Chongzhen thought of a compromise method, and based on the central idea of ​​"practice is the only criterion for testing truth", he wrote down those things he knew in detail one by one.

Generals like Chen Jisheng and Mao Chenglu who are commanding troops abroad, newly promoted generals like Zhou Yuji, and the gang of Xunqi disciples from the vanguard of the government army gathered in the lecture hall created in Xiyuan, allowing them to switch between 'teachers' and teachers. 'Student' role.

Let them rub sparks in the collision, I often come to Wutang to inspect, and grasp the general direction without deflecting, truly explore an officer training mechanism suitable for Ming Dynasty, and gradually clarify what they need to learn during the training of professional officers Subject.

"..."

Chen Jisheng, Mao Chenglu, Kong Youde and other Dongjiang generals all showed expressions of astonishment after listening to Emperor Chongzhen's speech. Is this to make them become scholars?
Influenced by Confucianism for a long time, the class division of 'scholars, farmers, businessmen' has been passed down from ancient times to the present, and it is already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In Daming, not everyone can study.

Why do most of the civil servants in the Ming Dynasty look down on the generals who command troops to fight?
The most core point is that in the early days of the founding of the country, brave and skilled generals were needed to conquer the world. After so many years in Taiping, the way of sages and sages respected by literati, the sense of superiority hidden in their bones, does not allow vulgar A military commander who holds military power and poses a threat to the country.

"Think about what I said carefully."

Looking at the generals with different expressions, Emperor Chongzhen narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Soon, the Martial Arts Hall will be established, and you will also be selected to study in it.

Don't think that this is just a whim I decided to start. The first batch of generals who graduate will take up important positions in the Fifth Army Battalion, Shenji Battalion, and Shenshu Battalion. Go down. "

"Here!"

Through Emperor Chongzhen's firm tone, Dongjiang generals Chen Jisheng and Mao Chenglu could clearly feel the determination of the emperor and the importance he attached to the martial arts hall. They could not go back to Dongjiang Town. Learn in the martial arts hall, and strive to be assigned to the Beijing camp.

Thanks to what Emperor Chongzhen had done before, Dongjiang generals such as Chen Jisheng and Mao Chenglu did not have any doubts or thoughts of persecution after listening to what he said, otherwise they would really mess up , then the capital will experience a military disaster.

After Chen Jisheng and the others left, Pang Tianshou stepped forward, cupped his hands against Emperor Chongzhen who was standing behind him, and said, "My lord, Zhou Yuji has rushed over."

"Call Cui An over here."

Since the lecture hall is to be established, the newly established army of officers must develop in the direction they want in the early stage of the exploration stage, and there must be no major deviations.

Compared with Dongjiang generals such as Chen Jisheng and Mao Chenglu, Emperor Chongzhen trusted Zhou Yuji more in his heart, but he couldn't show it.

After Cao Huayu ordered Cao Wenzhao, Cao Wenyao, Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong and other generals to go to Beijing to transfer to the martial arts hall established by Xiyuan, Emperor Chongzhen hoped that Zhou Yuji could take on the important task and call the martial arts hall in Beijing. On the right track in the collision.

The first short-term training course for military officers opened in the Lecture Hall established in Xiyuan, the reason why it is necessary to clarify the three-month training period.

On the one hand, it was based on his idea of ​​rectifying the Beijing camp, and on the other hand, it was Dongjiang Town. He wanted to send a group of trustworthy and capable generals there, and the leader was Zhou Yuji.

Reusing Liu Xingzuo is important, but there must be means to check and balance Liu Xingzuo, but they will not openly contradict Liu Xingzuo like Mao Wenlong's old department.

Don't look at Emperor Chongzhen's personal conquest, defeating the Jianlu who invaded Ming Dynasty, and the sudden threat of foreign invasion was relieved, but this does not mean that Emperor Chongzhen had extra time to squander.

At least until the rebellious momentum in the Ming Dynasty was stabilized, the tight string of Emperor Chongzhen could never relax in the slightest. Otherwise, no one knew if the fate of the Southeast Branch would come again. to him.
