After Zhu Yuanzhang marched into Jinling, he only took Zhenjiang. After all, this place has been the barrier of Nanjing since ancient times and is also known as the entrance to Jing. I think Liu Yu used this as a basis to seize the power of the Sima family. Such an important place, tens of thousands of people
It cannot fall into the hands of others.
But after taking Zhenjiang, the entire Zhu Jiajun came to a standstill and did not continue to use troops.
Many people thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was complacent and lacked motivation, or that most of the Zhu family troops were from Huaixi and were unwilling to fight in the south of the Yangtze River... There were even rumors that the plague was prevalent because of the lack of adaptability to the climate and climate.
In fact, this matter is not complicated at all. It is just that Zhu Yuanzhang conducted a small training for the military generals and gave them some inconspicuous examinations.
Lao Zhu studied with Zhang Ximeng, and later consulted Jia Lu and others. His foundation was already very good. Moreover, Lao Zhu also had his own literary attitude.
He extremely hates rhetoric, and he must avoid flashy things. He must be concise and concise, and speak with substance.
Therefore, his requirements for these generals were also very simple. First of all, they must have basic writing and arithmetic. They must know at least 3,000 words and be proficient in military regulations.
The second is professional level. You need to know well-known battle cases in the past, be able to have your own opinions on a battle, and be able to write articles and analyze them.
Another point is that Lao Zhu asked the military generals to understand policies such as land equalization.
This is the key.
Perhaps it is not important among other soldiers, but it is not important for Zhu Jiajun, because in the newly captured territory, ordinary civilian officials cannot do anything at all. Military personnel must go down to suppress the local area, eliminate banditry, explain policies, and appease the people.
.
The best in the military can also be promoted to officials.
Therefore, the generals must understand Zhu Jiajun's policies and be able to implement them personally.
Lao Zhu demanded that one must pass the examination before he can continue to command the army. If he fails the examination, he will be demoted once or twice. After the third time, he will be demoted. The commander will become a commander, a thousand households will become a hundred households, and a hundred households will become the general banner.
By analogy, it is not impossible to even expel the main army.
After the announcement of this regulation, it can be said that the military was in a state of chaos and everything was in chaos.
In the past, it was outrageous to ask soldiers to read and read. Now they are still asking everyone to take the exam. They might as well take the Jinshi exam instead of being so tortured!
However, it is not the case that all the soldiers in the army are crying and suffering to the point of death.
People like Xu Da, Feng Guoyong, Feng Guosheng, and even Deng Youde, who had just joined the army, all performed outstandingly. The rest, Fei Ju, Tang Shengzong, Lu Zhongheng, Zhou Dexing and others, were also successful. However, there were a few people who became poor households.
Among the needy households... the cavalry battalion commanders Hua Yun, Hu Dahai, Chang Yuchun, including Zhu Wenzheng!
That's right, although Zhu Wenzheng included a text that highlighted his uncle's earnest expectations, the boy's head grew bigger as soon as he saw the words. Hu Dahai was not much better. His fingers were thicker than a rolling pin, so he
Holding the brush and writing stroke by stroke, it was like wielding a sword. Without even two strokes, the paper was scratched.
These four people have become extremely difficult households in the army, but Lao Zhu keeps a close eye on them and will not let them go for a moment.
I don't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking, but he tortured them at every turn and asked them to read his articles in front of the generals. It was right to execute them in public.
However, the level of these people really made Zhang Zongchang sad and Li Yunlong shed tears.
If you continue and fail the assessment, you will be dismissed from your position.
It was so unlucky to lose the official position that I had so easily worked out with my head because of illiteracy.
After a person is pushed to a certain level, he can do anything.
Hu Dahai was desperate. He simply went to Xu Da's subordinates and asked for all the literacy cards. He also found a few veterans and asked them to help make up lessons. After all, they all started at the same starting point and could communicate easily.
Then he studied hard. Hu Dahai couldn't sleep for two hours a day. With dark circles under his eyes, he stayed up all night cultivating and thinking exhaustively.
Not to mention, after studying hard for more than a month, Lao Hu was finally able to write something. Typos were inevitable, but the meaning was still understandable.
There are those like Hu Dahai who are tough and tough, and there are those who are opportunistic.
For example, Chang Yuchun found his brother-in-law Lan Yu.
Despite Lan Yu's young age, he didn't study much before, but he followed Zhang Ximeng and improved quickly. What kind of books did Zhang Ximeng like to read, what experiences he had, and what requests he made to Lan Yu. These things often come together.
Ask for them all, and then study them with all your heart.
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang also asked Zhang Ximeng for advice, so he was considered to be in the same discipline as Lan Yu. He learned from Lan Yu, so he was considered an anonymous disciple.
Zhu Wenzheng smelled the smell, so he simply went to Li Wenzhong. We are still relatives. You can open a small stove for me!
Li Wenzhong couldn't laugh or cry, and he couldn't refuse. In this way, Lan Yu and Li Wenzhong both started one-on-one guidance work. Naturally, both of them made a lot of money, and the small treasury expanded rapidly. They could buy soy milk in the morning.
I want two bowls.
These two people got rich, Zhu Ying couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply pulled Lu Zhou and took the initiative to find Hua Yun, who was worried and had his hair pulled back.
Don't say anything. We spent much more time with Mr. Zhang than those two, especially Zhu Ying. I still have the list of books my godfather read back then. I know exactly how he suffered.
.
He was simply tricked by my brother Zhang, so he came here to make amends with you.
Don’t worry, just listen to us and we will ensure you pass the exam smoothly.
Hua Yun could be said to have grasped a life-saving straw.
"Let's do this. As long as I pass, I will give each of you a war horse!"
"Really!" Zhu Ying was overjoyed, "You're not lying? I know that the number of war horses in the army is certain, how can you give them to me casually?"
Hua Yun scratched his hair, which suffered heavy losses, and came up with an idea, "This is not easy. There are many war horses, but war horses can give birth! I will give you a foal. After two or three years, you can go to the battlefield.
Now, this horse can be ridden!"
Zhu Ying rolled her eyes and suddenly felt that this was a good idea.
Then the lively activity of making up classes began.
From Chang Yuchun and Hu Dahai to Zhu Wenzheng and Hua Yun, everyone is busy and studying hard without eating or sleeping.
Many times, what the military wants is this atmosphere. Even these bosses are risking their lives. Who else dares to say anything?
An atmosphere of learning spread throughout Zhu Jiajun.
Lao Zhu was so satisfied that he simply organized a competition!
That's right, the army used to have shooting, wrestling, equestrian and other events. Lao Zhu added the recitation of military regulations and regulations. Personnel were selected from each battalion, and whoever remembered it well and memorized it well would compete in the whole army and the one who stood out would be selected.
If you can be promoted to one level, your battalion's salary will be doubled.
After this set of tricks, Zhu Jiajun's mental outlook was much better than before.
Zhu Yuanzhang also enjoyed this sense of accomplishment in teaching and educating people. It seems that when people call him "Mr. Zhu", it is more pleasant to the ears than the superiors. He seems to have experienced Zhang Ximeng's happiness.
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang did not sit idle and wanted to make his generals happy.
Because Lao Zhu knew very well that Zhu Jiajun had internal problems and needed to be integrated.
First of all, the main force of the Zhu Jiajun is the Huaixi people. Many of them are unwilling to leave their hometown. Even after crossing the river, they want to grab a wave and then return to Huaixi.
Lao Zhu obviously cannot agree to this kind of gangster behavior.
In addition, the Zhu Jiajun gathered many newly surrendered troops, including the entire Chaohu Navy, as well as many soldiers and horses from Yuan Ting.
These people have poor military discipline and have no sense of obedience at all.
From top to bottom, it's just a pile of mud.
If they can't be reorganized and released, it will only ruin the reputation of Zhu's army, which may make them unable to fight, and harm the common people first. Isn't this endless disaster?
All generals are required to read and read, recite military regulations, improve their cultural level, and explain the land distribution policy... This is to unite people's hearts, eliminate the stigma of the past, transform this army, and forge the gods to kill gods, and the Buddha to kill Buddha.
Divine weapon!
It is particularly worth mentioning that these things were all handled by Zhu Yuanzhang himself. He referred to some of Zhang Ximeng's past practices and added his own ideas. Everything went smoothly. It must be said that Lao Zhu Zhijun's talents are also top-notch.
of.
When Lao Zhu was tossing his troops, Zhang Ximeng got rid of Zhu Yidou. After that, there were the imperial examinations and Li Shui farmland... In short, it was Zhang Ximeng who was busy, Lao Zhu only showed a little bit, and most of his thoughts were occupied.
On top of the entire army.
Now that two months have passed, the magic weapon is about to be officially unsheathed!
It's time to test the academic performance of these generals... At this moment, two people crossed the Yangtze River in a boat and entered Jinling City.
The visitors are none other than Wang Guangyang and Wu Datou!
"Oh my God! I actually came back alive!"
Wu Datou touched his head and pinched his greasy face!
"Mr. Wang, am I not dreaming?"
Wang Guangyang couldn't help but laugh, "Wu Baihu, please don't say that to outsiders... Now it's widely spread all over the world that you said that you are the number one red thief and unparalleled gangster. If people know that you are the number one villain.
, if you say something so worthless, you will be stabbed in the spine!"
Wu Datou was stunned, right? No one thinks I can really fight, right?
He really couldn't bear it anymore, it was too shy.
Wang Guangyang didn't want to care what Wu Datou thought. As soon as he stepped into Jinling City, he could feel a strong change. The city had rules!
Clean and orderly.
All merchants entering the city and transporting goods must pay taxes according to the rules. Once the taxes are paid, the goods can flow smoothly.
With this governance ability, not to mention the Yuan Dynasty, even the Han and Song Dynasty regimes of Liu Futong and others were thrown out of the eighteen streets!
Some people are clearly proclaimed emperors, but they are still no different from bandits. Some people are just marshals, but they actually create an imperial atmosphere. It is really incomparable!
"As reported to the superior, Liu Futong has sent the Western Expeditionary Army to attack Guanzhong. He has also sent Mao Gui into Shandong... Han and Song Dynasties have begun the Northern Expedition!"
Lao Zhu couldn't help but take a breath!
Northern Expedition!
Since ancient times, no one has ever succeeded!
It was Liu Futong who took the lead... But if you get fat first, you won't be fat, and if you get fat later, it will collapse the bed. Sooner or later, the world will still be ours!
"Send the order and set off immediately! Within a month, we will capture Huizhou!"
