The struggle of the reborn prince

Chapter 98 Pro-Army

On the third day of October, a group of teenagers drove into the North Mansion, and now those people who were watching the courtyard had all been replaced, and more than a dozen experienced little yellow gates sent by the South Mansion were guarding here, but what surprised them was that they were Staying in the outer courtyard, and receiving strict orders without calling, no matter what happens inside, you are not allowed to take a step forward, let alone spread what you hear or see.

Some of the teenagers came here for the first time, and looked around curiously. This yard is slightly smaller than Nanfu, but it is also 150 mu in size, divided into two yards, the front yard and the front yard. The door to the backyard was locked by the small yellow door leading them.What appeared in front of them was a martial arts field 150 steps long and [-] steps wide, surrounded by tall pagoda trees, with weapon racks and some strange-shaped shelves placed on one side of the field.

The huge martial arts arena was quiet, and there was no one in sight except their group.The cold wind blew, and everyone shrank their necks involuntarily. They looked at each other with blank faces, and their faces were not very good-looking. No one knew what they were going to do here, and why did they leave them here? People control.Facing the empty square, they seem smaller and more timid. Some people don't know whether it is cold or afraid, and they keep pushing into the crowd. They may feel that they will feel safe in this way. If they didn't look like there were so many people and they were all men, they might have cried.

However, there are also those who can’t stay idle. Seeing no one to answer, they ran to the martial arts arena and swung their big swords, or climbed down those shelves, and played according to their own understanding, as if they didn’t worry about themselves at all. In the current situation, when you are excited to play, you still call out to the people who came with you to play together???

"Whoever told you to run around, stand back!" About half an hour later, a guy who turned out from nowhere, reprimanded loudly.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Yong? Where did you get the clothes you're wearing? They look so good." Everyone froze for a moment, and someone quickly recognized that this guy was Zhao Yong who led them to work every day a few days ago .

"Hee hee, it looks good, and I think it looks good too." Zhao Yong laughed and put his hands in his trouser pockets, letting everyone admire his new clothes. This clothes is definitely called a fancy dress in this era. Design, a small collar is added to the neck, a close-fitting pocket, with brass buttons, it looks energetic, the lower body is a pair of breeches with a fat crotch and tight knees, plus a pair of mid-high waist riding boots, tied in the waist With a palm-wide belt and a woolen hat with a long brim and a high tube and a flat top, it looks so handsome. As long as a modern person is an army fan, he can see that there is a shadow of the German SS military uniform in the clothes. The hat But it looks like it belongs to the French army. Needless to say, this is another masterpiece of Zhao Tun.

"Zhao Yong, why did you arrive? We have been waiting for a long time." Zhao Zhong said dissatisfiedly when he saw Zhao Yong's complacent look after drinking in the square for a long time.

"Brother Yi, you think we are going to play. I am almost tired from welcoming you these few days." Zhao Yong looked at Zhao Yi as if he saw his relatives and said with a crying face.

"Okay, stop pretending, take someone there quickly," Zhao Yi said coldly while dodging Zhao Yong who was rushing towards him.

"Okay, I'll take you there now." Zhao Yong shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression to Zhao Sha, who was laughing behind him, and said indifferently, "Brothers, those who want to wear new clothes, follow me." After speaking, he took the lead Leading the crowd to a courtyard to the east of the Martial Arts Field.

When the teenagers stepped into the courtyard, there were already people waiting there. It was Zhao Ren and Zhao Li who had disappeared for more than ten days. Their attire was the same as that of Zhao Yong. "Everyone has worked hard. On behalf of the lord, I welcome you all." Zhao Ren said with fists in his arms as he worked with Zheng Lu, the chief steward, and treated people well.

"It's a good thing to call everyone here today, but it's also a hard job. We will serve as the prince's personal servants. This is something that many people can't wait for..." Zhao Ren's voice just fell, and the young people below The pot was blown up, the entourage of the prince is the people around the prince, not only the salary is high, but in the future, maybe he can win an official position, honor the ancestors, and shade his descendants.

"Now the court is not quiet, bandits are rampant, the prince is alone, and he has been in danger many times. It can be said that someone will harm him at any time. It is impossible for us people to have good health and abilities. Are you right?" Zhao Ren asked loudly.

"Yes, brother Zhao said yes"

"Brother Ren said well"

"That's it, that's it???" The people below replied in confusion, but their emotions were also mobilized. Now their deeds are all in the mansion, and the prince is their parents. It can be said that they share weal and woe with the prince. All in one.

"Okay, brothers are right. From now on, we will be the prince's side. No matter what we do, we must first think of the prince, be loyal to the prince, and dare to die for the prince." Zhao Ren said passionately, but what he said was true. From the bottom of my heart, in the past few years, the prince has never treated them as human beings, but got along with them like friends, and there are many young people who have the same thoughts as him. The young people are pure-minded, but when he instigates them, their blood boils.

"We came here today to practice our skills, protect the prince, and kill all those who are not good for the prince. I also want to tell everyone a good thing, so...?" Zhao Ren looked at everyone and smiled with a long voice. He also said, "In the days to come, the lord will live, train, and be the captain of everyone" Needless to say, there was another burst of cheers. In the past, seeing a county magistrate was like meeting a god, but now I can get along with the lord day and night , it is really exciting for these newcomers.

Next, Zhao Ren organized the 50 newcomers into groups according to the roster, and divided them into five groups, A, B, C, D, and E, with ten members in each group, and then appointed a group leader.Then, under the leadership of their respective gang leaders, each group went to the warehouse to collect clothes, quilts and daily necessities, and moved into their respective dormitories.

"Hmph, it's a pity that Zhao Ren is a handyman. If you go back to the past and become an instructor, you are completely qualified. This is as if you have taught yourself." Zhao Tong chuckled, and the closed door was over. Peeping'.

"It's a pity that there are only more than 50 people now. In the previous life, it was a reinforced platoon. I, the captain of the prince, only had fifty soldiers. When will I have a general? Only then can I have the strength to dominate one side? ???" Zhao Tun sighed and sat on the chair, counting with his fingers.

According to the establishment of the Song Army, it is divided into four levels: Xiang, Jun, Ying, and Du.The chamber governs the ten armies, the army governs the five battalions, and the camp governs the five capitals.There are 100 people in each capital, each governs two capitals, 50 people in each capital, and ten people form a group.The commanding officers at all levels are: Commander of Xiangdu; Commander of Military Capital, Marquis of Military Capital, Commander, and Deputy Commander;The command battalion is the basic organizational unit of the Forbidden Army. He only has half of the people in the capital now, and the supreme commander is the captain. He is still far from his wish, so it is no wonder that he is frustrated.However, Zhao Tang quickly came out of the depression just now. Anyway, the airs of being pro-military have been set up, and now he has taken the first step in building an army.

Zhao Tong's decision to do this was not an accidental whim. It can be said that he has been thinking about this issue since he came to this world.As a latecomer, he is well aware of the weakness of the Song Dynasty army. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, every time the Song Army fought against nomadic peoples like Liao and Xia, they lost more and won less. Excluding political reasons, the most important thing is that their troops are Mainly infantry, it is difficult to compete with the enemy's cavalry.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, the northern military defense areas were mainly Hebei and Hedong areas, and these two places have been important military areas to resist the north since ancient times. The Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu, the Northern Wei Dynasty and Rouran, the Sui and Tang Dynasties and the Turks, the Five Dynasties, Song Dynasty and the Khitan capital There is offense and defense here.Compared with Hebei and Hedong regions, Hebei is more important. Fu Shibi said: Hebei Road is the world's fundamental reason because the Northern Song Dynasty was not located in the Guanzhong area where the mountains and rivers were solid before, nor in the Yiluo River Basin, which was heavily blocked, but in the Kaifeng City, which has convenient transportation but no danger to rely on, then Hebei and Hedong regions will replace northern Shaanxi and Hexi as the last barrier to protect Gyeonggi.

At the same time, Khitan, the rival in the north, controls the military bases of Youyun Sixteen Prefectures, posing a threat to the Song Dynasty from time to time. Lu's family said: "If Yan Ji is not harvested, Hebei will not be solid. If Hebei is not solid, Henan will not be able to rest easy." And lie down." The flat avenue at the eastern foot of the Taihang Mountain in the west became the best choice for nomads to go south, and most of the Khitan's several southward invasions in the Song Dynasty in history mostly entered this way.The final demise of the Northern Song Dynasty was because the Jin soldiers broke through here, and there was no danger in front of them except the Yellow River. Although the Song army had a large number of people, it had been peaceful for a long time, and it was mainly infantry. It was difficult to stop the rolling iron hoofs from breaking through the plain. , finally came to the end of destroying the country.

In the history of Chinese and foreign warfare, although there are many examples of infantry defeating cavalry, most of them rely on powerful infantry phalanxes or special geographical conditions. When infantry can really compete with cavalry, it is after the appearance of firearms, especially Even after the appearance of rifles and cannons, this is why Zhao Tun is determined to make muskets no matter how difficult it is in this era.

Zhao Tong formed the pro-army after watching the training of the members of the society. These people practiced cold weapons and used the tactics used in cold weapon battles.It is completely different from building an army based on firearms, combat ideas, concepts, and even the tactics to be used. To make changes, he cannot do it alone. It requires the efforts of a group. He is now To plant one's pro-army as a seed, let him take root and grow continuously, but to make this seed grow into a big tree, he still needs to work hard
