Chapter 953 The east wind blows and the war drums beat
It was late at night, and at the official ship pier of Tonghui River, there was a post every three steps, and a sentry every five steps, and the security was extremely tight.
The New Army soldiers, armed with live ammunition, stood upright, waiting for the commander-in-chief's review.
Soon, Yuzhu, dressed in military uniform, galloped into the dock.
Chief Sergeant Zhao Qing, seeing Yuzhu coming, immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Everyone is here, stand at attention and salute!"
The soldiers all saluted with their guns and looked straight ahead.
After Yuzhu stopped his horse, Zhao Qing trotted all the way to the front of the horse, raised his sword and saluted, and said loudly: "Report to the mountain chief, all the students of the Military Academy's Non-commissioned Officer Branch School have been assembled. There are 935 people who should be here. In fact,
There are 935 people, please give instructions!"
"Very good!" Yuzhu put the five fingers of his right hand together, pointed diagonally at his temple, and solemnly returned the military salute.
Looking up, the non-commissioned officers were holding rifles, their eyes were bright, and they were extremely energetic.
"My students, you are the soul and backbone of my new army soldiers. Without you being well-trained, the team officers would not be able to win the battle as well as you can. I guarantee that the best among you will enjoy endless
The treatment is inferior to that of Zhentong!" Yuzhu raised his hand again and solemnly saluted.
Oh, the non-commissioned officers all seemed to be in a state of shock and wanted to crush the rifles in their hands.
In the new army, due to Yuzhu's special attention, the training of non-commissioned officers was on the right track very early.
According to the regulations of the new army, an officer starts as a team officer (company commander), and non-commissioned officers are divided into ten levels. Among them, the first-level non-commissioned officer is the shed leader (squad leader), the second-level non-commissioned officer is the deputy platoon leader, and so on.
Due to the urgent situation of an imminent war, the non-commissioned officers gathered today will all serve as platoon commanders.
Officers can be promoted step by step, and non-commissioned officers can also be promoted to the chief sergeant at the town level due to their merit.
The chief sergeant is equivalent to the chairman of the soldiers' union in this town and has a great say in the management of soldiers.
Without the permission of the chief sergeant, even the Zhentong (division commander) cannot deal with any soldier at will in peacetime.
From the Franco-Prussian War to World War II, why was the German Army so powerful?
The capable team of non-commissioned officers has played a great backbone and leading role.
In addition, Yuzhu learned from the lesson that the Beiyang Army was too disobedient after Yuan Xiangcheng left the field, and deliberately separated officers and non-commissioned officers.
Officers and non-commissioned officers belong to different military and political systems.
Even if an officer is ambitious, he still needs to ask the non-commissioned officers if they will agree!
The officers of the New Army are only responsible for commanding operations and control the military order system.
The non-commissioned officers spent the whole day fighting with the soldiers, sharing the joys and sorrows, teaching combat skills, and imparting life-saving tips.
In addition, the payment of military pay to the New Army never goes through the hands of officers. Instead, it is distributed to each soldier one by one by the shopkeepers and clerks of the Universal Bank.
This will put an end to the ugly phenomenon of officers taking empty pay and drinking the blood of soldiers from the root.
The army of the former Ming Dynasty, under the control of the civil servant group, except for the servants, were all rookies.
Under Dorgon's command, the same group of people were all high-spirited and brave enough to fight.
In a nutshell, it’s enough money!
In addition to a high salary, the soldiers must be paid regularly and fully, so that the soldiers are willing to work for Yuzhu.
Yuzhu's lecture did not last long.
Because he himself suffered from the experience of being a scholar, he knew that giving lectures for too long would only make people bored.
"Let's go." Yuzhu waved his hand, and Chief Petty Officer Zhao Qing immediately issued the order, "Everyone turn to the right, two by two, and board the ship one by one."
All of a sudden, a huge team of non-commissioned officers filed onto the grain ship docked at the dock.
After the ships were unmoored one by one, they went eastward along the river and headed straight to Tianjin's No. 1 Town Station.
After returning home from the dock, Yuzhu had just sat down and had a sip of hot tea when he saw Wu Sidao walking in with a letter.
"Old Wu, come and try the Biluochun that was brought in from the new tribute." Yuzhu greeted Wu Sidao affectionately.
Wu Sidao was not polite to him, and sat directly opposite the huge tree root. He picked up the tea cup in front of him, took a sniff, and couldn't help but praise: "It smells so good."
Yuzhu smiled slightly. He met Wu Sidao in front of him, while Zhou Quan almost leaned back.
It doesn't matter that they met early. The important thing is that Wu Sidao risked his head for Yuzhu and lurked in the fourth prince's palace.
What happened to the stump of the leg?
In Yuzhu's eyes, Wu Sidao, who is both loyal and capable, is more precious than anything else!
Wu Sidao knew well that one of the conditions that Yuzhu negotiated with Lao Wu was to let him enter the cabinet and become Wendner's deputy.
Yuzhu used the household department with astonishing power to exchange for only one Wu Sidao. Do you need to say more nonsense about this kind of affection?
If the old emperor were still alive, Wu Sidao, who had lost his leg, would definitely not be able to serve as an official in the court.
However, the old emperor had passed away and when the government was in chaos, Yuzhu took the opportunity to make an exchange of interests with Lao Wu.
There is no way, the old emperor is so selfish. Both Lao Wu and Lao Qi are in the category of being unable to be officials. Just because they are princes, they can still be promoted to nobility and serve as errands.
"Your Majesty..." As soon as Wu Sidao spoke, Yuzhu raised his hand to stop him.
Yuzhu lowered his face and said: "You and I are true brothers who have known each other since we were young. Just call me Jieqing. You are not allowed to call me anything else in the future. This is not a negotiation."
Even though Wu Sidao was a very scheming person, he was completely moved by Yuzhu's fiery true feelings, and his eyes filled with tears.
"Brother Qingxian..." Wu Sidao's lips trembled as he called out Yuzhu's cousin's name with great difficulty.
You must know that at this moment, there are no more than ten people in the entire Qing Dynasty who are qualified to call you Zhenqing.
The Empress Dowager Cikang, the Qingtai and Guarjia clans, Li Si'er, Lao Wu, Lao Qi and Lao Twelve, at most Tong Guoding and his generous cousin Orundai, are just a few.
Even the little emperor only dared to call out affectionately in private: Brother Zhu, let alone others.
"Hey, that's right. We'll call you that from now on. I like hearing it." Yuzhu raised the tea cup and said with a smile, "Here, let's drink tea instead of wine and do it."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Dang." The crisp sound of clinking glasses lingered.
"Qing Qing, according to reliable information, Lao Jiu went to Lao Twelve's place tonight." Wu Sidao opened his mouth and revealed a shocking news.
Yuzhu touched his chin and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. In the coming days, similar things will definitely happen one after another."
Wu Sidao nodded and added: "The scandal of the fourth regicide has been temporarily suppressed according to your instructions. However, among the two people involved in the poisoning, Liu Jinzhong and Wang Chaoqing, Wang Chaoqing was willing to confess after being severely punished.
, looking at him dying."
Yuzhu smiled and said: "Actually, whether the dynasty is alive or dead has nothing to do with the overall situation. After all, the two of them are just eunuchs without roots, and they have fallen into my hands again. Even if they complain publicly
The Fourth Brother's regicide and rebellion are not very credible because of me."
Wu Sidao understood instantly that Chao Chaoqing's life or death no longer mattered.
Yuzhu added: "Since Lao Si and Lao Ba fled to the west, sooner or later they will raise troops to clear the emperor's side. As long as they raise troops, it is treason. Whether they kill the emperor or not, it doesn't matter."
Wu Sidao smiled slightly and said: "Yes, as long as they raise their troops, they will be the mortal enemies of the current Holy Emperor, Fifth Master, Seventh Master and others!"
Qingjun side, don't be ridiculous, I just want Qingjun, okay?
If Yuzhu is defeated and dies, the little emperor will definitely die!
There is a high probability that Lao Wu and Lao Seven will not survive. Because they are in power.
As for Lao Jiu, if Lao Ba wins, he will naturally be crowned a prince.
If the fourth child wins, hey, the ninth child will definitely not survive either!
Seeing that Yuzhu's conversation was in full swing, Wu Sidao said again: "You let Lao Ba and Lao Si go out at the same time, which is a stroke of genius. Lao Ba wants to go to war, and wants to ask Lao Si and Nian Gengyao if they agree? In the same way, Lao Si and Nian Gengyao
Nian Gengyao wants to go to war, but he also has to worry about Lao Ba and Lao Fourteen behind him. They are restraining each other and cannot move!"
Yuzhu smiled lightly and asked Wu Si, "Old Wu, do you think there will be a falling out between Lao Si and Nian Gengyao?"
Wu Sidao twirled his beard and chuckled, saying: "Nian Gengyao has always been arrogant and cruel. If I were the fourth child, I might not dare to go to Xi'an to seek refuge with Nian Gengyao."
"Haha, Lao Wu, you are actually sure in your heart that Lao Si will definitely go to Xi'an, right?" Yuzhu picked up the tea cup and tasted it carefully.
Wu Sidao deliberately avoided this sensitive topic and analyzed: "The land of Shaanxi and Gansu is extremely barren and cannot support hundreds of thousands of troops. As long as Shanxi and Henan cut off the food routes and guard the passes, it is possible that
There will be chaos if we don’t fight.”
This is very interesting to say.
Yuzhu touched his chin and said, "I have already sent a letter to Yang Sen, the governor of Shanxi, ordering him to burn all the ferries in the Yellow River, and at the same time strengthen the walls and clear the fields, and prepare for war at any time."
"Qing Qing, the governor of Henan is also very important." Wu Sidao reminded Yuzhu with a pun.
Yuzhu waved his hand and said: "If Henan's security is too tight, I'm afraid they won't dare to raise troops when the time comes!"
Wu Sidao understood. Yuzhu was obviously hoping that Lao Si and the others would raise their troops to defeat the emperor!
"Well, if Lao Nuquanxia had any knowledge and saw the bloody scene of the Eight Banners soldiers attacking each other, what would he think?" Wu Sidao smiled in a particularly strange and gloomy way.
Yuzhu laughed three times, stood up, and walked out, saying, "Have a rest early, don't tire yourself too much!"
During this period, Yuzhu suddenly became sexually active.
However, Xiuyun definitely couldn't let him succeed.
After Yuzhu went out, he simply went to Qingwen's place.
Qingwen did not disappoint Yuzhu. She took the initiative to put a handkerchief in her mouth and let Yuzhu gallop happily.
After the incident, Yuzhu did not dare to ask for water to bathe.
Xiuyun will definitely know once he calls for water.
During the national mourning period, men can't control their crotch. No matter how virtuous Xiuyun is, he will deal with Qingwen ruthlessly.
After the happiness, Yuzhu put on his clothes again and went back to Tingxue Residence where he lived alone, fearing that he would harm Qingwen.
