Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 236 Military Discipline, Troop Training

If this Sun Chuanting is really capable, no wonder he became a momentary hero in history.

At the meeting of military advisers who accepted their fate, Song Qingshu deliberately only gave a name, and did not discuss anything with the generals in advance. Suddenly, he had an extra military adviser on his head. These good-tempered people also have some ideas.

In such a situation, Song Qingshu just wanted to see if Sun Chuanting could restrain his subordinates, and he couldn't!His value is greatly reduced.

But he really calmed down!On the day of accepting his fate, Sun Chuanting found Scarface and began to inspect the military camps one by one to check the situation of the soldiers and terminate the entire army. On the third day, regarding the current situation of the begging army, Sun Chuanting listed the first military regulations of the begging army.

Different from Daming's cruel Seventeen Laws 54 cuts, this military regulation is much simpler and more practical under Song Qingshu's staff, restricting soldiers from looting privately, not leaving the barracks privately, handing over seized items to the public, obeying orders, etc. Originally, all punishments were beheading, but under Song Qingshu's intervention, most of them were changed to whipping, imprisonment or long-distance running.

As a result, as soon as this military regulation was promulgated, Liu Dazhuzi and Liu Zongmin violated it on the same day. The two left the soldiers to train during training, and ran to hunt a rabbit, drink wild food, and were caught by Sun Chuanting. With an order, the guards took both of them down, pressed them directly in front of the whole army and beat them hard.

Even the leading general was directly drawn, and the soldiers who watched the excitement were all trembling, and began to be in awe of the military law.

After being beaten for a while, Liu Zongmin and Liu Dazhuzi naturally refused to give up, and finally broke free. Liu Zongmin ignored Sun Chuanting's bloody back and went to desperately go to Sun Chuanting. Calling Qu, let Xing Hongniang aggressively come to Song Qingshu to ask for an explanation.

It's a pity that Song Qingshu naturally couldn't tear down the corners of the talents he had finally helped to stand up. Liu Zongmin was directly brought over by him for a good training, and Xing Hongniang was also blocked by Song Qingshu. , Song Qingshu gave two choices, either go home and wait to have a baby, or everyone in the military camp must abide by the military regulations. The two trusted generals were not pleased, and those impetuous mid-level officers naturally had to accept it.

However, this is just to stand up, and it is far from being truly convincing. It is another matter of Shiyue Duo to really calm down this group of Qiuba.

This day, Sun Chuanting himself checked the military newspaper too late at night, and was more than half an hour late in the morning for exercises. He immediately took off his armor and went to the camp, let Li Tiezhu hold the whip, and whipped him ten times. Putting on the armor again, he went to inspect the military camps everywhere.

It is always easy to control others, but it is very difficult to abide by the rules set by oneself. Sun Chuanting did it!This is convincing. After the news got out, even Miao Mei couldn't help but nodded, exclaiming that Sun Chuanting is really a man!I restrain myself a lot.

But suppressing the whole army does not mean being likable. In the begging army, Sun Chuanting is definitely an unpopular character. It has been like this in history. When he partnered with Hong Chengchou as the governor of Shaanxi, Hong Chengchou set up tables wherever he went. However, Sun Chuanting was not welcome wherever he went. There was no other reason. Hong Chengchou followed the unspoken rules of the officialdom at the time, but Sun Chuanting was too serious. He arrested the already dilapidated guard system. Most of the embezzled official land and Wei Suo Tian were also deprived by him, and the taxes owed by the powerful over the years were also pursued. Wherever Sun Chuanting went in history, he hid him like a plague god.

Today's begging army is similar, as soon as Sun Chuanting's ice face appears, it means that something bad has happened, and the soldiers also respect him at a distance.

However, this is in the interests of Song Qingshu. He is kind and generous. Whoever was beaten by Sun Chuanting will send some wound medicine and come to the door to express condolences. It must have moved the soldiers under his command to tears.As for the things that need to sing bad faces, spank people's buttocks, and cut off people's heads, Sun Chuanting will be in the court, and he will be hated!
For more than a month, seeing that Sun Chuanting, the military adviser, can clearly manipulate the begging army, especially since there is one more talent to replace Scarface in training, Song Qingshu can be regarded as completely relieved, and let Scarface go to Xinkou The village, in the name of the general of the soldiers, commanded the two thousand begging troops in Xinkou Village.

Scarface has no doubts about his loyalty to Song Qingshu, but he has been in the army for too long, and it is easy to shake Song Qingshu's authority, just like Liu Zongmin and Li Zicheng in history. , It was still a gangster who insisted on going his own way, and even ransacked Wu Sangui's house, and arrested Wu Sangui's father, Wu Xiang.

In fact, what is crying, the six armies are all plain, and they are so angry that they become a beauty!It's all false. It's nothing to Wu Sangui if Chen Yuanyuan is taken over. What is still clear is the attitude of the Dashun Army's censorship. How can there be a new dynasty's bearing? How is it different from rogues?So it is Liu Zongmin who planted the seeds of defeat for Li Zicheng, who had finally conquered the country.

At this time, it is a good opportunity to transfer Scarface out of the begging army. On the one hand, it weakens his influence, and on the other hand, sending him out to take charge of his own role is also a kind of promotion.

Everything is developing according to Song Qingshu's plan, starting from Xi'an City, this has never been smoother than before!The smooth Song Qingshu was a little scared.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Today's Wutai Mountain West Mountain is almost completely occupied by Song Qingshu. When he first arrived, the Lingfeng Valley where the army was stationed was completely leveled. The ground was compacted with rammed earth, and a spacious school field was built. More than 3000 scarecrows appeared in the army formation. In the same arrangement, three thousand members of the musketeers were sweating profusely and screaming, stabbing the scarecrow's heart and throat.

The three generals of the Musketeer Team, Zhao Liuzi, Li Tiezhu, and Monk Zhao, who was under the command of the original Wang Zuogua, also practiced non-stop among them.

In the begging army, only the musketeers, the [-] armored cavalry led by Xing Hongniang, and the [-] swordsmen of Liu Zongmin do not need to participate in labor, the food is the best, the meat has meat, and the treatment is the best. , but other beggars did not envy them.

Even Qi Jiguang trains every three days. Only they practice every day. They run 3000 meters in the morning. They must not move in the military posture for an hour in the morning to practice obedience. And the method of killing people with bayonets, even at night, someone specially taught them to read and write, and everyone must write a certain number of characters, otherwise they will be whipped at the end of the month.

If you continue to practice so hard, it is said that some people will become stupid after practicing.

But this is exactly what Song Qingshu wanted. Some people in later generations compared the modern army with the feudal army. The modern capitalist army has sufficient supplies to support the army from production. At the same time, it can also invest more time in training to improve military discipline and military skills. In the bones of soldiers.

The best soldiers are numb like this. When they are on the battlefield, they will rush forward numbly even if they are pointed at by the general, and will never take half a step back.

"Kill! Only if you practice hard today, you won't have an accident on the battlefield tomorrow. If you don't want your elders to receive your blood-stained money for burning and burying, I will kill you mercilessly!"

On the training ground, a muscular man with a slightly longer face, a short beard, and a muscular face was also screaming loudly, constantly patrolling the formation, and from time to time he would personally enter the formation, holding the soldier's shoulders to correct him.

Wearing the cloak of Qihuoshuai, riding a horse to inspect the barracks, looking from a distance, Song Qingshu still felt as happy as picking up a treasure.

The Zhou Yuji recommended by Sun Chuanting was not a simple person. He was considered a thorough grassroots class. He started as a pawn in Liaodong, and gradually rose to the capital guerrilla by virtue of his desperate military exploits with Hou Jin. Later, he suppressed the peasant army from Yang Sichang.

In the 15th year of Chongzhen, Xu Dingguo, who had collapsed in the army, took over as the commander-in-chief of Shanxi. In the 17th year of Chongzhen, when Li Zicheng was at the height of his power, and everything Shanshan and Shaanxi passed by looked down, the army stood alone in Dai County, Ningwuguan, and killed in Ningwuguan. Li Zicheng's main force was tens of thousands of people. This was a ruthless character who almost forced Li Zicheng to want to go back to Xi'an. He forcibly extended his life for the Ming Dynasty for more than a month.

If it was a month or two later, maybe this person would be transferred to the Beijing camp. Unfortunately, in the last battle before being promoted, from Cao Bianjiao's army to Song Qingshu, Cao Bianjiao ran away. It is true that he has been bullied a lot, and Song Qingshu's theory of saving the country by curves persuaded Zhou Yuji, and then took his old mother from Liaodong to take care of him. This Liaodong man really did as he promised, and sold his life to Song Qingshu.

He and Li Tiezhu exchanged. Li Tiezhu went to be Sun Chuanting's personal soldier Qian Zong. Song Qingshu wanted to come by himself, and in the name of the captain of Qu Shuai's personal army, he would admiral the entire musketeer team, taking over part of Scarface's position, following Song Qingshu's buttocks as thugs for part of the time, and spending the rest of the time on training soldiers.

Satisfied with his inspection, he ordered his soldiers to tell Zhou Yuji to rest after the training, and he didn't need to find himself as an errand anymore. With twelve guards, Song Qingshu walked out of the mountain by himself.

However, before he had gone far, Sun Chuanting blocked him. Looking at his ice face, Song Qingshu's own expression immediately became bitter. Before Sun Chuanting could speak, he shook his head first.

"No! This matter is not discussed, absolutely not!"
