of sixteen
After Chen Sipan was awarded the title of head, there was no force on the sea surface of Zhejiang that could resist Li Yanzhi. He moved to Putuo Mountain to inspect the three armies here.
This Putuo Mountain is an old place for Li Yanzhi to visit. After arriving at the island, he still stayed at Puji Temple. When Li Yanzhi first met Lu Errong in this Puji Temple, he visited the old place again after two years. Most of the monks in the temple were still there. When they saw Li Yanzhi, they clasped their rituals and made a ceremony. This said: "Governor Li is indeed an Arhat descending to the earth." The other said: "Governor Li is the reincarnation of Vajra." There is more flattery than before.
The host personally set up a tablet of immortality for the wife of Zhenhai Hou, claiming that he would recite scriptures and blessings day and night. Seeing that they were flattering, Li Yanzhi was not willing to donate some incense and oil. He also said, "Don't worry, from now on, the temple of Guanyin Master will not be in chaos. After this time, it will be at least a hundred years of peace here." After a change of thought, he felt that his wife and children would have a great chance to visit Putuo Mountain in the future, so he asked the monks to light the immortality lamp for Yier and his daughter, so as not to ask about noise when their family members come to burn incense in the future.
On the second day, when the troops of each unit arrived, Li Yanzhi took Zhang Yue, Yin Zhengmao, Qi Jiguang, Hu Zongxian and others to parade at the port. The army was divided into four units, the first unit was the headquarters of the Haifu Army. This army was based on Jilongzhai aircraft and absorbed a large number of elite soldiers and generals in actual combat. The whole army was energetic, well-equipped and disciplined. Although there were only 10,000 people, they were already very arrogant. Li Yan pointed to the army and said: "King Kaiping (Chang Yuchun) once said that if one can command a hundred thousand people, it would be enough to dominate the world. If there were 100,000 troops like this, it would be enough to dominate the world. Unfortunately, there were only 10,000 people at present."
Zhang Yue and Yin Zhengmao and others just agreed. Hu Zongxian followed Li Yanzhi for two days and found a little trick to his temper. He knew that he did not like to respond and did not avoid his subordinates. He pointed to the second group of troops and said, "This army is not large in number, but in time, it is also an elite soldier, but the right and left hand of the Chengdu Governor."
This second part is a new army under Qi Jiguang's army. It has not been trained enough and its military equipment has not been fully equipped, but its mental outlook is also the best choice. Hu Zongxian's words pleased Qi Jiguang, and Li Yanzhi nodded and praised him for his vision.
When I saw the third army, this group had the largest number of people, about 50,000, divided into twenty rows, and stood half a beach, but the surrendered pirates joined the privateer. This group had a variety of quality, complex quality, blood-stirring thieves, monks and Taoists who did not abide by the rules, Japanese ronin from across the sea, and even short black men, high-negative white men - I don't know if it was Arabs or Flangji. Most of these 50,000 people were fierce, but the team stood a little loose, and it was obvious that the discipline was unclear.
Li Yanzhi asked Hu Zongxian: "How is this person?"
When Hu Zongxian saw him asking him, he was secretly happy. He was prepared and answered calmly: "These tens of thousands of people can be blessings or misfortunes. It is not possible to use them all. Picking out ten thousand people from them is also an elite soldier. Those who only train to command the troops must get the other person, otherwise they will backfire."
Li Yanzhi had a long plan in his heart: "When he arrived at the senior official and took Wang Mumin back, he would hand over the ten thousand people to him torture." He smiled and said, "What about the rest?"
How to resettle unusable surrendered troops is the most troublesome issue throughout history. If it is not handled properly, it will be called the country's biggest evil tumor like the Song Dynasty.
Hu Zongxian thought to himself: "It's hard to answer this. Although I am concerned about it, it's not appropriate to say this in this situation at the moment." But after Li Yanzhi asked, he didn't answer. He pondered for a moment and replied: "How to deal with the remaining people can only do it, not say it."
Zhang Yue frowned slightly when he heard this, thinking that he was making a fool of himself. However, Li Yanzhi felt happy and thought: "This man is not only quite knowledgeable about military forces, but also knows power and strategy, and knows the right way to speak. It's rare! It's rare!"
When I saw the fourth army, everyone, including Li Yanzhi, frowned because this man was too unreasonable. Although the man in the third world was not very lawful, it was still quite scary in my heart when I looked at it, just like looking at a double-edged sword without a hilt, afraid that it would hurt people. But this man in the fourth world was annoying, just like seeing a pile of squirming parasitic roundworms. The faces of 20,000 to 30,000 people were almost all of them in a bone-like skin and bone-like slut. This was a kind of slickness that had been preserved for hundreds of years - it was a group of soldiers who had been passed down from generation to generation.
The fourth army is the official army of the garrison station of the eastern Zhejiang coastal garrison. Although they are regular troops, they do not look like regular troops at all. Obviously, not only are they mostly in physical condition, but they are not trained normally.
Li Yanzhi sighed and said to the generals: "I will go south to capture Wang Zhi tomorrow, but these guys who only disturb the people and cannot beat thieves are really troublesome. Who can help me rectify them?"
After this sentence, Yin Zhengmao stretched out his head and wanted to take it down, but when he thought of the difficulty of this matter, he finally held back - he and Li Yanzhi were in the same subject, with a deep relationship and no need to gain a position in such thankless things.
Qi Jiguang is good at training troops, but he is a general of the Wei Sect. He is so familiar with the foundation of these Wei Sect soldiers that he is too familiar with. He has long determined that these people are hopeless - otherwise why would he choose to train new recruits?
Xu Yuanliang was born as a pirate. He suffered a lot of losses when he first went to sea. He hated these people to the core and thought that it would be a fun thing to torture them as the head of these officers and soldiers. But it was so good that he had no idea what to do after he was happy, so he didn't dare to take it on.
Other generals such as Lu Tong, Zhang Yue, etc., either reserved or had insufficient qualifications, and did not dare to speak out. Only Hu Zongxian thought: "I and the governor have the least time left here. Although this matter is difficult, since others dare not take it, it is my chance." So when Li Yanzhi's eyes moved to him, he actually asked, "I don't know what the governor intends to rectify it?"
Li Yan heard that he lived up to his expectations, and he really wanted to take over. He nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I don't want to turn them into elite soldiers, I just want them not to become a burden to the country."
"It's not a burden to the country? Isn't it enough to let them go out of camp without any trouble?" Hu Zongxian said.
"That's not what it means." Li Yanzhi said leisurely: "I mean... Well, the country is in a difficult situation now, and I'm afraid that I can't support useless people."
Zhang Yue, Xu Yuanliang and others felt relieved when this sentence came out, but Qi Jiguang's face changed slightly. Why did his face change? Because the meaning of Li Yanzhi's sentence clearly had a hint of abolishing the supply of the garrison. Cutting off the supply of the garrison system would be equivalent to cutting off the roots of the garrison system.
Qi Jiguang is a vested interest in the garrison system. Due to the military achievements of his ancestors, he had the inheritance rights of the fourth-rank commander of the Dengzhou Weizheng in Shandong. He has been promoted by Li Yanzhi continuously since the Battle of Beijing, and is now ranked third-rank, higher than the official position he inherited from his ancestors. With his military achievements and age, he will make progress in the future. Even if he is a first-rank military officer, it is not uncommon to become a first-rank military officer. However, according to the Ming system, these merits are all within his reach. The Dengzhou Wei in Shandong is his household registration and his true roots. As long as the Ming Dynasty's household registration system and military officer system remain unchanged, Qi Jiguang's lifelong salary and his descendants' salary will be held in Dengzhou Wei. His normal inheritance privileges are applied to Dengzhou Wei. From the perspective of the continuation of the entire family, compared with his inheritance rights in Dengzhou Wei, the peak of his officialdom's ten or twenty years of glory is just passing clouds.
Now anyone with discerning eyes has seen that Li Yanzhi's group has a tendency to subvert the world, and Qi Jiguang has entered the core of Li Yanzhi's group. As long as he grasps it well, he can also gain huge benefits in the new system. This is true. When it comes to the change of the garrison system, Qi Jiguang still had a bump in his heart and had a little hesitation. Then it is conceivable how strong the other garrison officers and soldiers who did not benefit from the Li family will have.
Qi Jiguang's brows only frowned slightly, but Li Yanzhi had noticed that he knew the difficulties of this matter well, so he did not dare to act rashly before he got the right person and the right plan.
After the military parade, he answered Puji Temple. Hu Zongxian followed him, but Li Yanzhi did not stop him. After entering the east wing, Li Yanzhi said to Hu Zongxian: "Ruzhen, how do you deal with the redundant soldiers of the garrison station? Do you have any ideas?"
Ruzhen is Hu Zongxian's name. Seeing that Li Yanzhi could actually remember his own words, and the name was so good, he seemed to have cultivated his meaning again. He was happy and replied, "This matter is not urgent."
"I'm not going to finish it now," said Li Yanzhi: "But I'm almost going to start doing it. But I have to deal with Wang Zhi first, break the mountain, and maintain the smooth flow of the East China Sea business road. Other things must be back, so I hope that while doing other things, we can't interfere with these two major things."
His words revealed a little of his established strategy, which was even more rare for officials like Hu Zongxian who had just come to surrender. Although Hu Zongxian knew that this was a means of winning over, he still enjoyed it very much. His face showed the look of a soldier dying for his confidant, and said, "Governor! Although the lower officials are not talented, they are willing to risk the world's worst for the governor! If the governor has any ideas, just give orders. Even if the lower officials are heartbroken, they will not refuse."
Although he was passionate, he actually knew that since he wanted to defect to Li Yanzhi, the more he paid for Li Yanzhi, the greater the trust he received, the higher the profits he would get in the future, and the lower the danger. As for what people outside this system say and how they view him, there is no need to worry about it.
"What do I want you to do with all your heart?" Li Yan smiled and said, "I hope everyone can make money, make money on the right path, and make long-term money."
“Ah, yes, yes.”
Li Yanzhi said again: "Besides, there are more people who can take the blame for me and are willing to take the blame for me. I chose you, but I hope you can do things well."
"Then..." Hu Zongxian sorted out the pros and cons of this matter in a very short time, feeling that if this matter is done, it will not only benefit the country and the people, but also live up to his lifelong ambitions, but also gain Li Yanzhi's trust, as long as the Li family does not fall, his future will be bright!
"Then Governor, what do you want to deal with these... these redundant soldiers?" Hu Zongxian asked.
"I want them to regain their wildness. In the short term, I'm afraid these hundreds of thousands of people will scold me to death, but in the long run, it's a good thing."
"Wild? How to restore wildness?"
"If you keep dogs for a long time, you will be slutty." Li Yan said straight: "If you put them back in the wilderness and let them die, of course a large number of them will definitely die, but the rest may turn into wolves."
Hu Zongxian's eyes lit up: "Exile?"
"Well said! It's exile! But if you say you're exiling hundreds of thousands of people, you're afraid that millions of people who were implicated will rebel on the spot!"
There are not many hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the garrison in eastern Zhejiang, but this kind of thing has always been a tangle of force. Since Li Yanzhi can move east Zhejiang, he can move Fujian, Guangdong, north and south Zhili, Shandong and Shanxi... So even if he just wants to move a corner, even if he takes a small step, the officers and soldiers in the garrison in the whole world will rise up and fight him!
Li Yanzhi had to consider too many things. This matter was just a small part of it. Before he could go deeper, he wanted Hu Zongxian to go back and think about it. When he had an idea, he didn't expect Hu Zongxian to be very wise. After pondering, he actually said, "Governor, if the Governor planned this, it would not be very difficult."
Li Yan was surprised: "It's not very difficult? Do you have any strange plans?"
"There is no wonder." Hu Zongxian smiled flatteringly: "The main thing is to rely on the authority of the governor. We should use the name of the military system to break the reality of this military system."
He had not specified how to destroy the system by utilizing the rules within the military system, but Li Yanzhi only heard this idea and thought: "It's very interesting! Let's continue!"
"In short, it means to use a name to clear the people in the ward station. If the people are gone, the military system seems to be still there, but in fact it is no longer there. Over time, the ward station will become a false name."
Li Yanzhi seemed to have some understanding: "Empty the ward... where can I go to clear it?"
"The governor said where to go..." Hu Zongxian laughed: "Let them go where to go." (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in.qidian., more chapters, support the author and support genuine reading!) (To be continued)
