When the cheers subsided, Liu Pei raised his wine bowl and shouted loudly: "Come on, brothers, let me toast you! It was your bloody battle that led to this great victory. You are all heroes! At the same time, I also hope that in the future, brothers

If you make new achievements again, my master will not hesitate to reward you!"

After finishing speaking, he drank all the wine in the bowl and turned around to show the bottom of the bowl to the servants. This move immediately caused a burst of applause from the servants. All the servants also picked up the wine bowls and drank it all! The atmosphere in the venue ensued.

It became lively, and the servants began to eat and drink together. Then Liu Pei took Qi Qitao and others to toast table by table. This made the atmosphere in the place even more lively.

You must know that these servants are all strong young men with high energy. They are even more excited after winning a battle. Coupled with the stimulation of alcohol and the young men's desire to show off, the center of the venue quickly becomes lively.

There were those who wrestled, those who competed with swords and shields, those who used musketry to compete with each other in stabbing and lance skills, and those who fought with different arms. For a time, there was a fierce battle between dragons and tigers in the venue, which was a spectacular sight.

Aloe went around the table and toasted everyone with a round of wine. Although his wine was mixed with water, he was still drunk. After toasting the last table, he walked to the outside of the banquet. There was another table of people there, which was dedicated to white people.

Prepared for some wealthy elders and wealthy households in the town.

Speaking of which, these two people have not had an easy life these two days! When Liu Pei arrived at first, he was scared to death. Fortunately, they were relieved when they learned that Liu Pei had restrained his troops from entering the town. Then they smelled

The Xiangjiao Army arrived and when they saw the huge crowd, their hearts went up in their throats!

What's worse is that the two groups of people actually want to fight next to the town! This time they are really scared to cry! Because they know that no matter which side wins, Xinyang Town will not benefit, and the winning side will be red-eyed.

If you are full of blood, you can do anything!

Seeing a big battle break out on the edge of their town, several people were mentally prepared to have their families destroyed. Unexpectedly, in a sudden turn of events, this group of tough officers and soldiers actually won the battle! The people in the town were relieved.

Come in one breath.

Not only that, not only were these officers and soldiers not overbearing and unreasonable, but they did things like buying and selling by force, beating, smashing, and robbing, and harming several girls! They actually followed the rules and gave money to everyone when they bought things. This is really true.

Let the people in the town make a fortune!

Xinyang Town itself is a small town by the sea. It has neither specialties nor attractive scenery. People usually make a living by farming and fishing, and there is not much money at all. Almost half of the days are spent on

Barter. The arrival of this group of officers and soldiers today brought a large amount of money to the town.

Grain, chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep were bought in large sums. Those with skills also benefited a lot. Let’s take the chef of the only restaurant in town. He cooked for the celebration banquet today and got a lot of benefits.

He received a reward of five taels of silver! So the whole town was grateful to these officers and soldiers from top to bottom.

Before Liu Pei came, these people were still discussing the situation of the officers and soldiers. Fortunately, they already knew that this group of people were not real officers and soldiers, but just servants of Liu Pei.

The family wealth is quite enviable. You must know that ordinary rich people cannot afford to support these more than a thousand servants! Seeing that their food and clothing are of high quality, and they are in strong health, I am afraid that a lot of money is spent on them every year.

When several people saw Liu Pei coming over, they quickly stood up to greet him. Liu Pei walked to the table and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much for your help, it has made things easier for my brothers. I would like to express my gratitude here."

When several people saw Liu Pei hand over his hand, they waved their hands in panic and returned the greeting, saying: "Master Baihu, please don't be polite! Your Excellency defeated the bandit army and kept the peace of this place. We are very grateful! You can provide convenience to you."

Willingly!"

Liu Pei said: "You fellow villagers don't need to be polite. It's our duty as warriors to protect the country and the people! Come on, let me toast you all!" After saying this, he took the wine bowl from the hands of the people behind him and drank with several people.

After putting down the wine bowl, several people sat down and talked politely. They discussed the topic of defeating the bandit army. Finally, Mr. Rui said: "I saw that the families under Master Baihu are strict in advancing and retreating, and the military discipline is strict. I am the Ming Dynasty.

I’m afraid only Qi Jiajun can compare!”

Rui Lao's words made Liu Pei very happy. In the history of the Ming Dynasty, the Qi family army can be said to be the most disciplined and brave army in the history of the Ming Dynasty. And the results were brilliant! Therefore, Qi Jiguang is mostly called Qi Jiguang by the people.

As "Grandpa Qi".

Since ancient times, armies of various countries have attached great importance to soldier formation drills. This training, which seems to have nothing to do with combat, actually comes from the tradition of the classical period. In that era when the attack distance and speed of weapons were limited, a person who could stabilize the formation and stabilize the formation was

An army that can change its formation at any time will be invincible. What is reflected behind this is actually the biggest difference between the classical army and the modern army. It is not the equipment, but discipline.

Therefore, when it came to selecting soldiers, Qi Jiguang abandoned the habit of hiring criminals and gangsters, avoiding the existence of greedy and cunning soldiers in the army, and only selected farmers and miners with perseverance and honesty.

Moreover, the discipline requirements within the Qi Jiajun are extremely strict! For example, Qi Jiguang’s training troops adopt a set of sitting methods. Soldiers must be beheaded if they or their teammates escape on the battlefield, or if their teammates are in danger and fail to save them. This is strictly

Execution without tolerance, this ruthless policy ultimately proved to achieve remarkable results,

When Zhang Juzheng was in power, he had just transferred Qi Jiguang to the front line of Jizhou, an important town in the north. The leaders of the Ministry of War at that time were at odds with Qi Jiguang and looked down on him, while Jizhou

The local garrison also looked down upon him and felt that the southern soldiers he led were of no use.

After Qi Jiguang led 3,000 soldiers of the Qi family army to Jizhou to take over the defense, and they lined up to give instructions, the local general became rude and said that the soldiers in the south were weak and might not be suitable for the harsh conditions in the north. It was unclear whether the military orders could be implemented or not.

After hearing this, Qi Jiguang's face darkened. At this time, there was a muffled thunder on the ground. When Qi Jiguang raised his head, he saw dark clouds rolling in the northwest, and a heavy rain was about to come. Qi Jiguang looked at it coldly.

Several of them suddenly turned around and pointed at the three thousand Qi soldiers behind them, and said, "What do you mean by a mountain of military orders? Look at these three thousand soldiers!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Everyone saw Qi Jiguang leaving, and they didn't know why. Just when they were confused, there was a thunder in the sky, and heavy rain started falling. It turned out that the soldiers in Jizhou dispersed with a bang without waiting for the order.

They went to take shelter from the rain. Only these three thousand Qi family troops remained motionless because there was no military order from Qi Jiguang. The original soldiers in Jizhou were hiding from the rain and watching from a distance, and saw that the rain was getting heavier and heavier. These three

Thousands of people are like sculptures. Not to mention moving away to hide from the rain, not a single one is moving. So is there anyone standing there to wipe the rain off their faces? Or pour the rain out of their boots?

Come out a little bit? You really want to find such a person, but no one makes even a small move!

Not to mention, the rain also picked up momentum, and it rained all day long, and it didn't stop until it got dark. The three thousand Qi Jiajun stood silently in the rain for a whole day, not a single person moving.

, and not a single person fainted. From a distance, it looked like a forest in the rain!

At this time, the northern generals were convinced. "History of the Ming Dynasty" said that they "began to understand military orders." That is to say, they only knew what real military orders were from this point on. Therefore, "History of the Ming Dynasty: The Biography of Qi Jiguang" finally concluded:

: "Qi Jiguang's military power was famous throughout the world."

In fact, the reason why Liu Pei arranged the celebration banquet in the square in front of the town was to show his military appearance. Liu Pei knew that his influence was too low now and was not known to the world, so he had to start from the surrounding environment.

In addition, there was a popular saying in the Ming Dynasty at that time, that is, good iron cannot be nailed, and good men should not be soldiers. Therefore, the whole country did not respect the army and did not take a fancy to it. They only regarded them as a group of low-level people shouting around.

and others. Such an army has neither a sense of honor nor organizational discipline. How can it win a war? How can it attract high-quality soldiers? That’s why Liu Pei made an exception and did not celebrate in the military camp. And now Liu Pei looked at the people with military uniforms outside the field.
