"Thank you, sir, for commending me and other Yiwu people. I am ashamed of myself. Master Zhu, please forgive me for speaking frankly. The officers and soldiers in the guard station are weak and cowardly, and the military discipline is corrupt. Then the Zhejiang army is capable of fighting. Is the military discipline strict?"
Chen Dacheng listened to Zhu Pingan's praise for the people of Yiwu. Although he felt touched, he was not at all distracted by Zhu Pingan's compliments. After thanking Zhu Pingan with a fist in his hand, Chen Dacheng raised a question very straightforwardly.
In his opinion, apart from their different names, what is the difference between Zhu Ping'an's Zhejiang army and the officers and soldiers of the guard station?
"I wonder if Patriarch Chen knows about the incident of Japanese pirates attacking Yingtian in Shangyu?" Zhu Ping'an asked without answering.
"I've heard a little bit." Chen Dacheng nodded slightly.
"Since Patriarch Chen has heard a little bit about it, he knows that the Japanese pirates from Shangyu who harassed Yingtian were annihilated by our Zhejiang army."
Zhu Pingan asked further.
"The common people know this too, but haven't the Japanese pirates been killed by adults in advance with the drug? If the Japanese pirates are drugged, anyone can annihilate the Japanese pirates. This does not mean that the Zhejiang army is good at fighting." Chen Dacheng said disapprovingly.
.
"It's not like all the Japanese pirates have been confused. There are still Japanese pirates who are still capable of fighting back. We also annihilated the Japanese pirates after fighting for a while." Liu Dadao couldn't understand Chen Dacheng's attitude and said angrily.
"Haha, the common people have also heard about it. Isn't it just that there are nine Japanese pirates who are resisting? You Zhejiang Army has more than 800 people fighting against nine Japanese pirates. Does this mean that you are good at fighting and can fight?" Chen Dacheng sneered.
Liu Dadao opened his mouth, but was speechless. What he said seemed to make sense.
"It seems that Patriarch Chen has a deep understanding of the war situation at that time. Then Patriarch Chen should know that at that time, the Japanese pirates from Shangyu first defeated the Jiangning camp, burned, killed and looted Jiangning Town. Yingtian sent Jiang and Zhejiang patrol censor Hu Zongxian to lead 1,300 elite soldiers.
They sniped at the Japanese pirates from Shangyu in the Cherry Orchard, but were defeated by the Japanese pirates, losing more than half of their troops. Taking advantage of the victory in the Cherry Orchard, the Japanese pirates from Shangyu invaded Yingtian City.
The 40,000 defenders stood on the sidelines and watched, not daring to go out of the city to fight. It was our 800 Zhejiang army who raised flags and drums, fearless of death, and rushed towards the Japanese pirates, causing them to retreat in fear. This cannot explain the relationship between our Zhejiang army and the garrison.
Are officers and soldiers different? Doesn't it mean that our Zhejiang army is capable of fighting?!"
Zhu Pingan smiled slightly and said slowly.
"Well," Chen Dacheng paused for a few seconds before nodding, "This does show to some extent that the Zhejiang army is different from the officers and soldiers of the guards. At least they dare to charge at the Japanese pirates."
Chen Dacheng shook his head slightly again, "However, the fact that the two armies are not in close combat is not enough to prove that the Zhejiang army is able to fight and is good at fighting. In addition, how to prove that your army's strict military discipline is different from the corrupt military discipline of the guards?"
"Da Dao, you guys will memorize the military discipline of our army for Patriarch Chen. First memorize the "Four Iron Rules and Eighteen Cuts"."
Zhu Pingan said to Liu Dadao and others.
"The Four Iron Rules: follow orders in all actions; do not take advantage of the masses; all seizures must be returned to the public; do not demolish houses to death of freezing, do not plunder to death of starvation. Eighteen beheadings: When the general is called, three drums are used, and those who fail to do so are beheaded.
"Anyone who hears the drum but does not advance, hears the gold that does not stop, cannot raise the flag, and cannot lay down the flag shall be beheaded; those who falsely claim to be sick before the battle shall be beheaded." Liu Dadao and others have long engraved the Four Iron Rules of Beheading into their bones.
Just open your mouth and speak very fluently.
When Chen Dacheng saw this, he opened his mouth in surprise. First, he was surprised that the military discipline of the Zhejiang Army was so strict. Second, he was surprised that Liu Dadao and others could recite it all smoothly. It can be seen that this "Four Iron Rules, Eighteen Cuts" is very popular in Zhejiang.
The army implemented it very thoroughly.
"Our Zhejiang Army also implements the law of joint sitting. First, superior officers sit jointly for lower-level officers. If a lower-level officer is greedy for life and fears death and escapes from battle, then the superior officer will be guilty of the same crime as him; secondly, subordinate officers sit jointly for superior officers. If a lower-level officer escapes, resulting in
If the superior officer dies in battle, then all the first-level officers under the officer will be executed; the soldiers will also sit together for the officer, and if the soldier escapes and the corps commander is killed, then all the soldiers in the army will be executed; thirdly, if soldiers and soldiers jointly guarantee each other, and one person escapes, the entire army will be executed.
be punished!"
When Chen Dacheng opened his mouth in surprise and had not yet recovered, Zhu Ping'an further introduced the Zhejiang Army's continuous sitting method.
As a result, Chen Dacheng's mouth opened even wider
There is nothing to say about the military discipline of the Zhejiang Army. The military discipline of the Zhejiang Army cannot be described as "strict", it is simply "harsh".
"Clan Chief Chen, are the military disciplines of our Zhejiang Army strict?" Zhu Pingan asked with a smile.
"Military discipline sounds very strict, but I don't know how to implement it. Just like the government, what they say is better than what they do."
Chen Dacheng is still very stubborn.
"Then you take someone with us to the Zhejiang Army barracks to have a look on the ground and see how our military discipline is enforced?"
Liu Dadao raised his eyebrows and asked.
Chen Dacheng shook his head and said calmly: "What can I say if I go and see it? What I saw in your military camp must be what you want me to see, and what I see may not be true."
When Liu Dadao heard this, he said angrily: "Our Zhejiang Army is open and honest, so we don't draft those frivolous things! Ten days ago, Han Laosan, Liu Gouzi, and Zhang Tiedan of our Zhejiang Army left the camp privately.
After sleeping with two widows in Bianjia Village, we adults held a public trial on the spot in Bianjia Village, invited people from Shiliba Village to conduct a public trial on the spot, and beheaded three of them on the spot. The punishment was official! The people from Shiliba Village nearby witnessed it with our own eyes.
Yes, if you are willing to inquire, you will definitely find out. This incident can prove that our Zhejiang Army not only has strict military disciplines, but also enforces them even more strictly!"
After listening to Liu Dadao's words, Chen Dacheng was startled for a moment and looked at the villagers watching the excitement in and outside the yard.
A villager scratched his head and whispered, "My daughter-in-law's aunt's family happens to be from Bianjia Village. My little boy was a full moon the day before yesterday. Her aunt's family came to our house to have full moon wine. Her uncle seemed to be talking about a lot of things at the wine table.
It seems that this matter has been mentioned, but it is not very clear. It is said that there was a military camp where three soldiers sneaked out of the camp and forced two young widows from their village to sleep. Then there was a young official in the military camp.
A public trial was held in their village, and the heads of the three soldiers were chopped off on the spot. The blood was so bloody that it was terrifying. Her uncle had nightmares for several days."
"My uncle is a businessman and travels all over the country. A few days ago, soldiers from our Yiwu Guard Station entered the village and raped women, and then ended up raping them and letting it go. My uncle also mentioned this matter with righteous indignation, saying that people should be punished.
There is a military camp over there where three soldiers raped civilian girls. All of them had their heads chopped off. We are all fine now."
Another villager followed and said.
There is no smoke without fire, and there is no smoke without fire. More than one person has heard of this, which shows that it is true.
After hearing this, Chen Dacheng couldn't help but look directly at Zhu Pingan. (To be continued.)
