Three hundred and eighty-ninth section show muscles (2)
The next day, the sky just turned white.
Yi Zong had already gotten up.
He is used to dressing himself, washing himself, cooking his own food, and packing his own luggage.
Even though he is now the captain of the Han Dynasty, a close minister of the emperor, and his sister is the emperor's favorite concubine, he still does not change his true character.
Although Yi Zong is young, the hardships he suffered in his youth have made him more stable than most other adults.
He put on his armor silently, adjusted his appearance in front of the bronze mirror, then strapped on his sword, went out, got on the carriage, and headed towards the arsenal.
When Yi Zong arrived at the arsenal, there were already soldiers standing in front of the arsenal's warehouse.
These soldiers are the elite of the Northern Army under his command.
In total, it is a compilation of three songs.
Because it was the Northern Army, the establishment was reduced by more than half compared to the troops at the border with Man Yuan.
But there are also 520 people in each song.
Each song governs three villages, and there are teams under the villages. The teams are under the command of Shi, and the troops are under the command of the troops.
This military establishment system is a scientific configuration inherited from the Qin Army and has withstood the test of countless wars.
It has almost become the most reasonable system in this era.
After Jin Shang ascended the throne, he used his Yizong and Ju Meng as the two fulcrums to directly control the elite guards of the two northern armies.
Especially this unit under his Yi Zong command is itself the emperor's guard unit in Weiyang Palace.
Not long ago, the emperor personally issued an edict to name the unit commanded by Yi Zong the "Habayashi Guards".
It means ‘to be the wings of the Han Dynasty, as prosperous as the forest’.
After two months of adjustment and selection by Yi Zong, there are now more than 1,500 people under the Yulin Guard, all of whom are carefully selected from the northern and southern armies and even the field army in Bashang and the garrison in Longyou.
Selected capable soldiers.
Each guard is no less than eight feet tall, and they are all brave, loyal, honest and honest sons of good families.
In the Han Dynasty, Liangjiazi only meant one thing - the children of the landlord class.
Among these soldiers, the ones with the worst family conditions only had two or three hectares of land!
Therefore, these soldiers have such qualities.
Yi Zong got off the carriage, and then tidied up his appearance. Ever since he came back from the expedition with Zhou Yafu, Yi Zong's every move had some shadow of Zhou Yafu.
Zhou Yafu is a stubborn man, manages the army in a strict manner, is strict with himself, and is even stricter with others!
After being trained by Zhou Yafu, Yi Zong valued military appearance and discipline the most.
After Yi Zong tidied up his appearance and confirmed that it was correct, he walked into the school grounds in front of the arsenal in high spirits.
Seeing Yi Zong's arrival, more than 1,500 soldiers were standing upright, and everyone was still standing upright.
No one whispered. No one looked around.
All soldiers, from officers to infantry, are like sculptures.
Yi Zong walked onto the stage of the school field, glanced at the dark square formation, and said loudly: "Good morning, gentlemen!"
"Good morning, Lieutenant Yidu!" the soldiers replied loudly and uniformly.
They all hit their left breastplates with their fists. Suddenly, there was only the sound of banging gold in the school grounds.
Yi Zong also hit his left chest with his right fist as a return gift.
This new set of military etiquette is the Habayashi Guard military etiquette formulated by the emperor himself. Even in the presence of the emperor, if the soldiers are wearing armor, they only need to salute in this way.
Yi Zong put down his fist, and the entire school became silent again.
Then, he asked loudly: "Who are we?"
"We are the Habayashi Guards!" the soldiers replied loudly.
"Why are we fighting?" Yi Zong asked again.
"We fight for Your Majesty, we fight for the country of the Han Dynasty, and we fight for the common people of the world!"
"Serving the country as a wing, as prosperous as a forest!" the officers took the lead in shouting the slogan!
Yi Zong waved his hands and shouted with all his strength, "What is our oath?" Then he knelt down on one knee.
All the soldiers immediately, led by the officers, knelt down on one knee like Yi Zong, facing the direction of Weiyang Palace.
Suddenly, the voice of incomparable generosity and incomparable blood resounded throughout Chang'an.
"We swear to be loyal to the Emperor, to the Han Dynasty, and to the ancestors of China forever. As long as there is one breath left, we will remain unswerving!"
"We swear to protect the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and the country of the Han Dynasty to the death!"
"We swear: to obey the edict of the Emperor of Han, obey the command of the Emperor of Han, obey the call of the Emperor of Han, obey the edict of Jiazi, and fight for the welfare of the common people in the world and the country of the Han Dynasty!"
"It's like this today, it's like this every day!"
"The sky is my witness, and God is my guide!"
"If you violate this oath, please God punish you severely!"
After saying the long oath, Yi Zong slowly stood up.
But his whole body was still immersed in the passion stirred up by the oath. He felt that his whole body was full of energy, and he wished he could shed his blood and sacrifice his youth for the Han Dynasty and the country.
Looking back at the soldiers under his command, most of them are the same.
In today's world, people value keeping their promises.
Even bastards and scumbags would dare not break an oath once they have made it.
As long as someone dares to break this kind of oath made with the gods as evidence, then the whole world will hate it and abandon it!
An obvious evidence is that Qu Zhouhou Liji violated his friendship with Lu Lu, and as a result is still criticized.
Li Ji just sold a friend who had never made any oath, and everyone was criticized every day. Among the more than 1,500 soldiers and officers, whoever dared to break the oath in the future would be immediately expelled from the family and despised by the world.
What's more, this oath will inevitably be repeated every morning during the military training.
This is the will from the emperor.
Yi Zong also had to admire Jin Shang for coming up with such an idea to win back the morale of the army.
With this oath, I am afraid that all of the more than 1,500 people in this school, from soldiers to officers, will become die-hard loyalists to the emperor.
Moreover, because these soldiers, generals and generals are all sons of good families, after they complete their service and return home, under their influence, their nephews and clansmen may also be affected and become the most loyal and reliable force of the Han Dynasty.
These more than 1,500 people can affect thousands of households and radiate more than 10,000 households.
Including the more than 1,500 people under the command of Prince Consort Ju Meng who were also required to take such an oath.
Within five years, the entire Han army will gradually complete this oath adaptation.
The emperor meant that the power to command the army should be fully returned to the state.
One country, one leader, one will, one voice!
The first batch of troops that will accept this reform will be Zhang Yu from Liang State and Han Anguo's subordinates.
"Your Majesty is truly a holy king..." Yi Zong thought to himself: "I'm afraid that after Zhang Yu and Han Anguo's troops finish conquering North Korea, King Liang will find that he can no longer command this army!"
Yi Zong has full confidence in this point.
Because, once you get used to some things, they are difficult to change!
For example, over the past two months, Yi Zong has become accustomed to leading the soldiers to recite the oath every morning.
If he didn't recite for a day, he would feel uncomfortable all over, as if he had lost something.
Putting these thoughts in his mind behind, Yi Zong looked at all the soldiers and said: "Your Majesty has an edict. Today, I and the Yu Lin Guards will protect the emperor, watch the troops go to the forest garden, maintain order, and ensure your majesty's safety, gentlemen.
Do you have confidence?"
"I am waiting for the Habayashi Guards, and I will serve you to the death!"
The sound of golden roar could be heard immediately.
"All officers and men, listen to my order!" Yi Zong unsheathed his sword and issued the order: "All of you! Turn back! Take steps as a unit!"
"promise!"
More than 1,500 people, like a clockwork machine, immediately began to walk out of the school, fully armed, under the command of the officers.
The first to go out were three hundred Yulin cavalry.
All cavalry are wearing heavy armor, and their war horses are selected from the best horses in the Han Dynasty's horse farms. They are equipped with a three-piece set of stirrups, saddles, and horseshoes. Each cavalryman is equipped with two sets of repeating crossbows and a backpack of crossbow arrows on his back.
In his hand was an improved spear suitable for charging into formations.
This kind of long gun is the product of special design and many improvements.
Its gun handle has special brackets to make it easier for the knight to hold it.
The gun head is made of steel and is extremely sharp.
Yi Zong heard that this lance was only of experimental nature and was equipped on his Habayashi Guards to test its performance.
A true standard lance still requires continuous trials and tests to ensure that it fully meets actual combat needs before mass production of equipment.
In essence, his Yulin Guards and the Tiger Guards under Prince Consort Ju Meng were both armies of the Han Dynasty testing weapons and equipment.
From now on, all new weapons and equipment will be equipped in these two armies first. Through actual use, feedback will be provided to the Shaofu for their opinions, and they will be continuously improved before being deployed on a large scale to other armies.
Even some weapons will only be equipped with these two troops for the time being.
For example, the five hundred soldiers following the cavalry.
Each of these five hundred people wore strong and lightweight leather armor, and all the soldiers were selected warriors with incomparable strength.
The weapons they are equipped with are mainly a sharp long knife that is as tall as a person. The blade is made of fine iron and is extremely powerful. It is most suitable for charging into battle. During many exercises, Yi Zong has already discovered this kind of weapon. In the end,
What is suitable is wall propulsion.
During the drill, there was almost no unit that could compete head-on with Mo Dao.
Once Mo Dao gets close to him, the enemy will only end up with one fate, and that is to be cut into pieces by random knives.
However, this kind of weapon requires extremely high quality of refined iron and steel.
For the time being, even the Shaofu did not have so many resources to supply the Han army with Modao uniforms.
Moreover, if Yi Zong heard the news, the emperor did not seem to have any plans to arm Mo Dao on a large scale.
Mo Dao soldiers are positioned as auxiliary soldiers.
It is said that a brand new armor and its supporting equipment are being developed by Shaofu.
The Habayashi Guards will probably be equipped within three to five years, which will 'change the pattern of war' and eclipse all the arms that fight against the enemy. It will even make 'most of the weapons and arms currently in service face immediate obsolescence' - these things
It was said by Wang Dao during a chat with Yi Zong. It is very credible!
Yi Zong is looking forward to this very much.
After the Mo Dao soldiers, there is the traditional superior force of the Han Dynasty - the crossbow soldiers.
They are equipped with new and improved repeating crossbows and large yellow crossbows as well as various light and heavy crossbow machines.
After the initial improvements of the Mohists, the current Liannu has greatly reduced the failure rate, and has also adopted the standardized spare parts system of the Qin Dynasty. All parts of the crossbow machine are basically interchangeable.
The Dahuang Crossbow has been redesigned. Although its range has been reduced from four hundred steps to two hundred steps, its accuracy and practicality have been enhanced, and it no longer requires several people to use it.
The last ones are the ceremonial soldiers, all of them are handsome men, with strong and sturdy bodies, holding horse-cutting swords and wearing thick armor, specially used to clear the way for the emperor.
…………………………………………
At the same time, in the other direction of the arsenal.
Prince Consort Ju Meng, the commander-in-chief, was also leading his soldiers. Facing the Weiyang Palace, he recited the oath of allegiance.
After the oath was recited, Ju Meng looked at the more than 1,300 soldiers under his command.
The army under his command is called the "Hu Ben Guards". Like the Yulin Guards, they both have names and flags given by the emperor.
The flag of the Yulin Guards uses mountains and rivers as images, which means that this is a guard army that always protects the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
The flag of the Tiger Guard is a fierce tiger roaring proudly in the mountains and forests.
Just like the name, this army is specifically oriented to actual combat and has war as its purpose.
All its soldiers are capable men selected from the counter-rebellion troops who campaigned eastward against Wu and Chu this year. Every one of them has military exploits, and all of them are real warriors who have killed people and seen blood!
Ju Meng puffed up his chest and asked loudly to his soldiers: "This time, Your Majesty, you will go to Shanglin Garden to observe the bravery of our Tiger Guards. At that time, the Xiongnu, Wusun and Dongyi countries will all be present.
!”
"Your Majesty's intention is to let us, the Tiger Guards, use our iron will and tenacious fighting spirit to show the might of our Han family to the barbarian countries, so that they will not dare to think of attacking the Han again. Do you think so?
confidence?"
"Tiger roars in the mountains and forests, defend the country with force!" the soldiers of the Tiger Guard shouted loudly the slogan of the Tiger Guard, giving him a clear and clear answer.
Ju Meng felt quite proud as he looked at his confident and high-spirited subordinates.
He waved his hand and then said: "Now, please ask Cheng Sima to explain to you this military observation, the specific arrangements and the various duties you will perform!"
Ju Meng is not as good as Yizong. He is older and his military vision and talent are limited.
However, Ju Meng is a smart man.
He knew that he could use the power of others to manage and restrain these soldiers.
This Cheng Sima is what Ju Meng Neng relies on to manage these more than 1,300 soldiers in an orderly manner, so that various systems, training and tasks can successfully achieve the set goals.
After Ju Meng saw this Sima's talent and talent, he decisively handed over the actual daily management and training power of the Tiger Guard to the other party. He only retained the personnel power and command power.
Facts have proved that Ju Meng’s choice was not wrong.
This Cheng Sima is far more talented in military affairs than him, and his abilities are also extraordinary. In the past two months, the Tiger Guards have been able to keep pace with the Yulin Guards, and even surpassed the Yulin Guards in some places. This Sima is indispensable!
Ju Meng had already made plans to recommend this Sima to the emperor after observing the troops.
Following Ju Meng's order, an officer in armor went up the steps and first gave Ju Meng the military salute of a Tiger Ben Guard - like a Habayashi guard, he hit his left chest with his right fist and said: "I'm humble, Tiger Ben Guard"
Guard commander Qu Sima Cheng does not know, I would like to accept the command of the captain!"
After Ju Meng returned the salute, Cheng Bushi turned around, faced the entire Huben Guards, and gave military salutes.
What responded to him was a uniform golden sound.
Cheng Bushi looked at the soldiers of Huben Guards and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. The experience of the past year or so was simply a disaster for him!
A year and a half ago, he was already a Sima with a bright future.
However, even after the Wu-Chu Rebellion and his great achievements, he was still Sima.
The reason for this can only be blamed on him being on the wrong team.
Who said that the man named Tian Mingfu who had promoted him to be Sima was now knocked to the ground and stepped on by ten thousand feet, a villain with "ulterior motives"!
Being implicated, Cheng Bushi's career was greatly affected.
Even though he went on an expedition with the Taiwei and made a lot of achievements, when it came time to discuss his merits and reward him, everyone selectively ignored him.
It was Prime Minister Zhou Yafu who couldn't stand it and ordered him to be transferred to the Tiger Guard, and he was given a new lease of life.
Ju Meng, in particular, did not exclude or even attack him because of his status as a "Tian Party". Instead, he was given a high position and the training, reorganization and management of the Tiger Guards were entrusted to him.
Therefore, Cheng Bushi was deeply touched by Ju Meng's kindness in knowing him. He has been assisting Ju Meng wholeheartedly in managing the affairs of the Hu Ben Guards. From the initial integration to the beginning of combat effectiveness, Cheng Bu Shi
I don’t know, I have exhausted all my efforts on this, and even my hair has turned several gray!
Now, looking at the Tiger Guard who had devoted all his efforts and energy, Cheng Bushi also had a happy smile on his face.
When he thought about this army, it would soon be reviewed and inspected by the emperor, and it would also demonstrate the fighting power of the Tiger Guards in front of the envoys and kings of the barbarians. His heart couldn't help but surge.
With such a mood, he cleared his throat and said to the soldiers of the Huben Guards: "This time, the Holy Emperor observes the troops to promote the martial arts of our Han Dynasty. Each tribe, army, and army has its own order.
Cheng, come to the Hubenwei Martial Arts Hall in a moment and wait for arrangements!"
Cheng Bushi always likes to consider all the details.
In order to ensure that this military observation went smoothly, he had not slept for three days and nights.
Since receiving the order, Cheng Bushi has worked tirelessly to plan all the details of the military observation and martial arts exercises, striving for perfection.
"No!" All the officers ordered one after another!
The officers of the Huben Guards were all transferred from the active Han Dynasty Field Army.
Even if he is just a corps commander, he can be qualified to serve as a team leader or even a commander in other places. In terms of combat literacy and quality, even the Habayashi Guards are not as good!
Therefore, the Huben Guards look down upon the showy tricks of the Yulin Guards.
They always feel that they are killed from among the dead.
And that bunch of greenhouse flowers and bones that have probably never even seen a dead person. They are people from two different worlds.
In addition, as the only two armies in the Han Dynasty, the emperor personally gave names and flags to them, and they are a new type of army that everyone pays attention to every day.
The Huben Guards and the Yulin Guards will inevitably have a sense of competition.
From top to bottom, the Huben Guards were very satisfied with the fact that he was the protagonist of this military inspection, not the sissies of the Yulin Guards (Cheng Buyu).
Almost everyone is working hard, this time they want to show the guys from the Habayashi Guards what it means to be a real man and a real soldier.
Cheng Bushi looked at the time and continued: "It's Chen time now. The emperor will arrive at Shanglin Garden at noon. The rest of the soldiers will use this time to check their weapons, equipment and armors!"
"promise!"
………………………………………………………………
Liu Che had just gotten up at this time.
Facing the morning light, he started doing morning exercises in the imperial garden. Next to him, Wang Dao bowed his head respectfully and reported on various developments in Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty, yesterday, after the scholars in Chang'an heard that the Huns envoys had arrived, they all joined together. Some people clamored to jointly send a letter to the court to stop the Huns from blackmailing!" Wang Dao carefully reported this not-so-good news.
After hearing this, Liu Che smiled slightly and continued his "Liu Style Tai Chi".
"Oh, are those people working together?" Liu Che asked.
This incident had already been anticipated by Liu Che.
As for literati, they guide the country and promote literature, govern the country with rhetoric, and discuss politics with fantasy. These are all things they must do during their second year of high school.
When Liu Che was in the Celestial Dynasty in his previous life, he also did keyboard work in the Politburo, and he knew this very well.
But like the Celestial Empire, he was somewhat indifferent to the eagerness of these scholars to express their politics.
The middle school boys always want to kill Japan and destroy America right away.
But if we really listen to them, this country will be in chaos.
However, who hasn’t been in the second grade of middle school?
Moreover, if the country's scholars become silent and dare not speak out to protest in the face of foreign aggression, then the future of this country can be imagined.
"There is a scholar named Gongsun Hong who is particularly active..." Wang Dao lowered his head and replied: "He and the scholars from Qilu in the southeast are making noises one after another..."
"Gongsun Hong?" Liu Che stopped slightly after hearing this name.
This is such a familiar name!
Unexpectedly, this powerful prime minister in his previous life also had a middle school period.
But think about it, Qin Yi was once an angry young man, and Wang Jingwei also had a time when he was able to live up to his youth.
There seems to be nothing wrong with Gongsun Hong being an angry young man.
Moreover, in fact, the current civil war voices basically come from Confucianism.
Different from the sour Confucians of later generations, the mainstream of Confucianism at this time was to advocate great revenge.
What is great revenge?
It means that someone beat you ten years ago, and ten years later, you beat them back. It is only natural!
Under the influence of this trend of thought, the Confucian scholars of today are basically war-minded.
This is also the fundamental reason why Confucianism became so powerful during the Xiaozhu period in the previous life - from the emperor to the people, everyone was advocating great revenge and advocating a war of revenge against the Xiongnu. Under such a general trend, it is natural that the Huang Lao Sect still wants to maintain peace.
It was crushed by the wheels of history.
Liu Che put this matter aside - naturally there was an internal history to take care of this matter.
He looked at the sun and asked, "Has the Yulin Guards set off?"
"Reporting to your majesty, Lieutenant Yidu has just sent people to Tongbing. The Yulin Guards, 1,531 soldiers, are fully armed. They have entered Shanglin Garden!" Wang Dao replied.
Liu Che nodded.
Yu Linwei and Hu Benwei were his two test subjects.
Both were modeled after the officer training corps of later generations.
However, the Habayashi Guards are basically made up of good sons, that is, children from families above the middle class.
The Huben Guards, on the other hand, do not pay attention to family background, and are only based on mature officers and soldiers.
Liu Che wanted to see who was more powerful in the end between these two types of soldiers.
There was just one thing that made Liu Che feel strange.
Meng Mingming does not have any experience or background in military organization management. How does he manage the Huben Guards in such an orderly manner that he is even better than the Yulin Guards of Yi Zong in many aspects?
Liu Che has watched the Tiger Guards' drills several times. Judging from the level of the drills, this army is already capable of combat!
In two months, an army with members from all over the world was equipped with combat effectiveness.
Is it possible that in this play, Meng's grandson is alive and Sima Xiang is resurrected?
You know, Yi Zong was able to manage the Yulin Guard well. That was because his cheap father-in-law, Lao Taishan Zhou Yafu, sent his capable retainers and staff to help.
Even so, Yi Zong is often a little unable to do what he wants.
Thinking of this, Liu Che asked curiously: "Wang Dao, do you know who Ju Meng has been close to recently?"
Wang Dao thought for a while and replied: "Reporting to your Majesty, Captain Ju often invites his subordinate Jiaqu Sima Cheng Bu Shi to go home for dinner recently. The two of them often hold candles and talk at night, and then sleep together!"
"Isn't Cheng aware?" A strange smile appeared on Liu Che's lips.
When did this guy go to work for Ju Meng and have sex with Ju Meng?
If Cheng didn't know it, it would make sense why Jumeng's Hu Benwei could be where he is today.
This general who was as famous as Li Guang in his previous life was most famous for his military training!
Moreover, it was an assembly line type of military training. The troops under Cheng Bushi were almost similar to the style of the European army in the eighteenth century.
He executes all orders rigidly and meticulously. Even if there is an earthquake or volcano erupting ahead, his army will advance, set up camp, defend, and then continue to advance in accordance with the established orders.
Thinking about it this way, Liu Che really felt that Tiger Ben Guard did have such a flavor.
"I hope the Tiger Guards don't scare the Huns into having a heart attack..." Liu Che thought to himself.
Modao military formation + continuous crossbow rapid fire + powerful crossbow strike, this set may really scare a few heart attacks.
It's a pity that there is no sign of the cuirassiers. Otherwise, if there is a wall charge, the Huns will probably have to prepare how to maintain the current situation after they return.
"How is the progress at Moyuan?" Liu Che asked again.
The disciples of the Mo family were collectively arranged by Liu Che in the Mo Garden built for them by the Shaofu.
In order to win over these technical geeks, Liu Che has promised that as long as the Mohists in Moyuan do not rebel, they can do whatever they want.
Therefore, these guys often play a little big.
His behavior is often a little out of line.
But they are all within the acceptable range of Liu Che.
To raise scientists and writers, you have to learn to accept the various quirks of these guys.
Recently, in addition to urging these guys to develop water conservancy forging technology and help lay the waterwheel in Guanzhong, Liu Che also gave them a task - to research a more advanced transport carriage dedicated to rails.
Wang Dao heard the words, smiled bitterly, and replied: "Your Majesty, recently all the Mohists in the Moh Garden have gone out to various counties in Guanzhong..."
"Oh..." Liu Che slapped his forehead and thought to himself, "Why did you forget this?"
Speaking of which, these Mohist scientists are more holy than the holy mothers of later generations.
The saints of later generations are just talkative saints. If he really wants to do it himself, nine out of ten saints will definitely not do it.
But the Mohists truly mean what they say.
Every June and December, these Mohists will take their salaries and distribute them to poor farmers among the people. They will also go to the poorest places in the countryside to share the joys and sorrows with the farmers and live together for a period of time.
After all the money was gone, I walked back to Chang'an barefoot and continued working.
This tradition had been adhered to by the Mohists for hundreds of years during the Qin Dynasty.
Now, after being active again, these guys are back to their old ways!
However, this is also good!
More such philanthropists will help social harmony, and more importantly, these Mohists can be used to win the hearts and minds of the people for the emperor.
So, Liu Che ordered: "Pass on my order, the Mohists in Moyuan will each receive a 50% salary increase. In addition, let the internal history designate a separate poverty-stricken county for the Mohists to govern!"
Liu Che knew the Mohist family very well.
He knows that these guys have a quirk - if they feel that they are serving the people in power but there is no room for their own ideas to be implemented, then they will definitely give up and leave!
It was the same in the Qin Dynasty!
The Qin people did the same thing as Liu Che, leaving several poor and scumbag counties to these Mohists and letting them practice their own political ideas. At the same time, they sent some Legalist bureaucrats to supervise them to prevent them from getting away with it.
In this way, the Mohists actually felt that their ideals had been realized during the Qin Dynasty...
Well, I can only say that scientists and such are indeed too simple-minded to be able to play politicians, that’s for sure! (Want to know more exciting news about "I Want to Be Emperor"? Open WeChat now and click on the upper right corner
