Ming politicians

On September [-]th, Sun Yuankun arrived at Pingyang Fucheng with the first batch of soldiers.

This group of sergeants, a total of 600 people.

Su Tiancheng was so happy that he almost couldn't hold on to himself. What Sun Yuankun brought was a standard cavalry, and the mounts were all Hequ horses.

Hequ horses are produced in Sichuan and Qinghai, and they are taller than Mongolian horses.

Only the elite cavalry of the imperial court can be equipped with Hequ horses.

These sergeants are all arranged in the newly purchased mansion of the Su family, and the huge back garden has been converted into a horse farm.

On September 400th, Liu Shiliang arrived with the second batch of sergeants, a total of [-] people.

On September 21, Luo Chang arrived with the third batch of sergeants, a total of 1000 people.

Su Tiancheng was a little strange. Normally, these [-] sergeants should not be too young. Nine years have passed, and even the young men at that time should have become middle-aged. However, there are many young sergeants in the army who cannot see Most of the older sergeants are middle-aged.

Sun Yuankun made an explanation. It turned out that quite a few young people joined in later. Although they were in the depths of Mount Emei, they were also managed militarily, and the military household system was still implemented. When the father was old, the son continued to replace them.

Over the past few years, Sun Yuankun has not relaxed his training at all, but because of the difficult life, there are many fewer horses. You must know that all the three thousand soldiers in the past were riding horses. Over the years, many horses have been sold. , also obtained a batch of Hequ horses by means of exchange.

Three thousand sergeants gathered in the newly bought mansion, it was a bit crowded, but the problem was not too big.

After a few days, Su Tiancheng heard Sun Yuankun say a lot about the situation. The gold he gave solved a big problem. Sichuan also suffered a disaster. Their food was obviously insufficient. The gold bought a large amount The food, the family members in Mount Emei, lasted for about a year without any problems.

Sun Yuankun invited Su Tiancheng to review the army. Of course, their current identities are the guards of the Su Mansion.

Su Tiancheng took Xiong Zijian, Sun Yuankun, Liu Shiliang, Luo Chang and others to the outskirts to have a look. When they saw the courtyard wall built, everyone was very surprised. Su Tiancheng explained that this is the place where the sergeants are temporarily trained.

Sun Yuankun and the others were greatly surprised, they did not expect that Su Tiancheng would have such an arrangement.

According to their thinking, Su Tiancheng is just a scholar, and without fighting in the battlefield, it is impossible to know the style of the soldiers, and they don't know the requirements of the army. Since everyone has followed Su Tiancheng, they can only get familiar with them slowly, and some of them are not familiar with them. Get used to it, and slowly overcome it.

September 25th.

Three thousand sergeants, together with the two hundred nursing homes of the Su Mansion, were all concentrated in the suburbs.

On this day, Su Tiancheng had to inspect and speak.

On the open space in the yard, a wooden platform was temporarily built.

3000 and [-] guards stood neatly in the open space, and the [-] Hequ horses also looked very quiet.

Looking at the 200 nursing homes, Su Tian was full of enthusiasm. With these [-] nursing homes, he already had enough confidence. This was the first step in development, and it was a gratifying first step. To change history and show ambition, hope lies in this crucial first step.

On the battlefield, the sword is ruthless, no matter how careful you are, you can't avoid casualties. To build an invincible army, you need to rely on the soul of the army, so he has to put forward clear requirements.

Looking at the unusually neat sergeants, Su Tiancheng clasped his fists, bowed and saluted all the sergeants on the battlefield.

"I would like to thank my brothers for letting me see self-confidence and honor. We are the Nursing Academy of the Su Mansion, but also an army. What is most important in the army is the soul of the army and the belief in invincibility. We all Fear of setbacks, fear of death, but when our homes are harassed, when our relatives are slaughtered, when our family members are abused, what we need to do is to pick up the big knife and spear in our hands and unceremoniously slash at The opponent's head."

"Our military spirit, where is it manifested? It is manifested in building ourselves, becoming an invincible army, making our opponents tremble and tremble, and making them kneel in front of us and beg for mercy. Now we have There are more than 3000 brothers, but I believe that we will grow stronger in a short time."

"Brothers, we are brothers and sisters, we are all one. On the battlefield, swords are ruthless. We will be injured, disabled, and even lose some brothers. But I want everyone to remember six words, don't abandon, don't give up, let's defend our homeland together , will go out to fight together, we will come back together, we will not abandon any brother, no matter how difficult the situation is, we will not abandon every brother, whether he lives or dies, this is our oath, And the oath of our invincible army."

"All our brothers, to never abandon or give up. This sentence is easy to say, but it is not so easy to do. It needs every baptism of blood and fire. I especially emphasize that the trust between brothers, It is the most important thing. Any grievances will lead to the most deadly consequences. Therefore, no matter what kind of grievances and hatreds you have on weekdays, on the battlefield, you are brothers, brothers, mutual assistance and care , is the most important."

"The ancients said it well. Soldiers are important to the country and the way to survive. It can be seen that the use of troops is important. What does an army need? I think that soldiers put Qi first, and it is reflected on the battlefield. Whose momentum, the invincible temperament, the temperament that makes our opponents tremble with fear, with this momentum, we can be invincible."

"Brothers' cooperation is a matter of life and death. We must take care of each other with our breaths, share our pain and pain, go through the fire together, go through the soup together, raise our glasses to make merit when we win, and give our best to save each other if we lose. If we do At this point, we will be an invincible victorious army."

"On the battlefield, the sword is ruthless, and there will always be casualties. If a brother unfortunately dies in battle, your parents are my parents. I will take care of them until the end of their lives. Your family is in trouble. I will do my best to help. Today Ri, we have a clear rule. Before any fight or battle, all soldiers should write down a written statement clearly stating what unfulfilled wishes you have and what you need brothers to help you with. This written statement, Keep it safe, the wish of the fallen soldier, we will help him fulfill it together."

. . . . . .

Looking at the passionate soldiers, Xiong Zijian, Sun Yuankun, Liu Shiliang, Luo Chang, Wang Dazhi, Ma Huabiao and others with red faces, Su Tiancheng was filled with emotion.

If what Qu Qingze said really happened, then these brothers in front of them would wipe out the bandits, in fact, wipe out the peasant uprising army, although it was only a negligible part.

Throughout the dynasties, farmers have been the most miserable, and they will not rebel unless they have to. The famines in Shaanxi, Shandong, Henan and other places have left farmers without food and desperation. In his eyes, people wanted to survive and had to rebel.

In Su Tiancheng's heart, he still had a sense of guilt. If he had no food and was waiting to die, if it fell on him, he would also want to rebel.

But the peasant uprising eventually fell into the middle of a vicious circle. The peasant uprising that started in the first year of Chongzhen has developed to the present, and it has deteriorated somewhat. Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang and Chuang General Li Zicheng, including Zhang Xianzhong and others, have already rushed towards power. What they think of is not to fundamentally solve the farmers' problems, not to let the farmers have enough food and clothing, but to think about their own enjoyment, including the internal struggle for power and profit, and it is the farmers who will suffer in the end.

In many cases, the regime established by the peasant uprising army was not even as good as the regime of the feudal dynasty.

This is the limitation of history. In the process of historical development, there has been no vicious circle that can be overcome.

Su Tiancheng has some confidence to solve these problems step by step, but he needs power and stability.

"Swear to the death to be loyal to the young master, to swear to the death to be loyal to Daming..."

Ma Huabiao took the lead in shouting the slogan, followed by everyone shouting, the voice was deafening and full of momentum.

Su Tiancheng blinked, obediently, first serve me, Su Tiancheng, and then the imperial court. Ma Huabiao is smart enough, which means it is obvious. If there is a conflict between me, Su Tiancheng, and the imperial court, these soldiers will first protect me of.

The army has the requirements of the army, and the military order is like a mountain. No matter what kind of situation it encounters, as long as the order is issued, even if it is a mountain of swords and seas of fire, it must rush forward without frowning. Only an army that fights tough battles to death is a qualified army. .

What was even more surprising was Sun Yuankun, Xiong Zijian and others. They were originally soldiers and were familiar with all the rules of the army. What Su Tiancheng said shocked them. This is a brand new concept. Su Tiancheng is a scholar. Why do you know this? Is it really Wenquxing from the sky who came down to earth?

All the requests made by Su Tiancheng were not aimed at the nursing home at all, but at the soldiers.

Don't abandon, don't give up, the words are heavy, and it is not easy to really do it.

At this time, everyone changed their previous thinking.

When he was in Taiyuan back then, Sun Yuankun was still a little worried. Even though the old lady had given orders and Xiong Zijian followed Su Tiancheng, it was unclear what would happen in the future.

Su Tiancheng's words dispelled everyone's concerns.

Soldiers are destined to be buried on the battlefield. One general is incompetent and exhausted to death. I don’t know how many soldiers have been buried in the hands of the young. If you can follow a loyal leader and make great achievements, that is the greatest glory
