The winter in northern Xinjiang is windy and snowy, but the day Mu An arrived at the army was a rare sunny day, with not even a breath of wind in the air. Mu An wore a long sword on his waist and a soft-armored battle robe. In addition to his subordinate officers, he also
He brought Jiang Xun, Mu Qing and other generals with him. Tang Mo was also wearing soft armor. He asked for these clothes from his father-in-law.
With the fan propped up on his chin, Du Changshi praised Tang Mo's clothes, "This armor is not bad, it is the standard of the Northern Xinjiang Army. You can also get me a set when you have time."
"Sure." Tang Mo agreed and said, "Brother Du, you are tall and handsome. You will definitely look good in military armor."
Seeing that the weather was fine, Mu Anzhi rode over without even taking a car. Du Changshi and others naturally followed him on horseback, and Hua Changshi, who was as young as his age, followed him, just to admire the elegance of the first frontier army in the imperial capital.
That kind of soaring momentum and fierce fighting spirit made even a scholar like Hua Changshi who didn't understand military affairs applaud in his heart, and there was light in his eyes. When I saw the Luoyang army in Luoyang, I already felt that the army was serious and the army was extraordinary. Now when I see the North
Only the Xinjiang army knew the mediocrity of the Luoyang army. This is the difference between magic soldiers and ordinary iron.
Mu An's jaw, "Strange Taoists all call the frontier army of the current dynasty, and the Northern Xinjiang Army is the leader. It is indeed well-deserved." His eyes swept over the soldiers' clothes and armor, and he saw that although the clothes and armor were not new, they were in good order. However, the weapons were still a few years ago.
Mu Anzhi knew the appearance of the old sword.
The military parade by others was probably just a formality, just to see the momentum. Mu An was not, Mu An was watching battalion by battalion. Fortunately, the generals under the command of Lu Hou had never experienced a military parade of prince-level figures, so they thought it was like this.
, anyway, they have already presented their best lineup to His Highness the Prince.
After seeing the 50,000 elite soldiers in front, Marquis Lu gave Mu Anzhi a warning, "There are only 50,000 elite soldiers left. The equipment of the soldiers at the back is often uneven. Your Highness, please don't be offended."
"I can't blame you for the equipment. I'm not surprised." Mu Anzhixin said that the Northern Xinjiang Army was originally built with 300,000 troops. It has been shrinking over the years, and it only has 150,000 troops. I don't think it only has 50,000 elite troops.
Moving on, not only are the equipment inadequate, but some elderly veterans don't even have armor, but they are still in the military. Looking at the next 50,000 soldiers, the soldiers are a bit reluctant. They are all in the military service at the age of 45 and up. They usually don't
Training mainly provides logistics and other matters. Mu Anzhi knew how difficult Luhou's life was.
Lu Hou said, "The troops in the Northern Xinjiang are stationed. The soldiers have to delay their training during the busy farming period. Later, I made the decision. As long as the eldest son of a military household inherits the family business, there is no need to enter the military camp. The younger brothers come to serve at the age of fifteen. Now these 50,000
The elite soldiers are all soldiers who no longer need to work in farming. They have been trained for a long time and their military appearance is not bad. The remaining 50,000 are all veterans over thirty-five years old. The clothes, armor and weapons must be provided to the young people first. They also
I know it well."
Mu Anzhi finally understood why Lu Hou was called a famous general in the world. Stationing troops to farm would indeed distract the combat power. In this way, each family could keep the eldest son at home to concentrate on farming, and recruit the younger brothers to concentrate on serving as soldiers. This would not only solve the problem of stationing and farming, but also
The soldiers will concentrate on training and enhance their combat power. Mu An's way is, "the missing armor and weapons will be supplied to you sooner or later. During the period, the soldiers only need to train their troops and don't have to worry about other things."
I had heard from the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty that His Highness was a cheerful person, and Marquis Lu felt it. He stood up and bowed his head, "I would like to thank Your Highness in advance."
Lu Hou also prepared a martial arts performance, Mu An's Way, "It's a martial arts competition, but it's not good to have no luck. It's the first time I've come here, and I don't know what you are lacking here. It's freezing today, and I brought fifty carriages with me. Isn't it better to go up?"
The leather is so good that it can be used by the soldiers below. There are also five carts of medicinal materials and two carts of ointment to prevent freezing hands and feet."
Although the general below could still sit still, his face already showed a look of excitement that he was eager to try. Lu Hou was also quite satisfied, thinking that His Highness is really not a man of small means. The main reason is that His Highness does not have any weapons or armor in his hand now, otherwise he is.
Rewarded with armor.
General Ji couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, I don't know how to divide these things."
Mu Anzhi said, "I think there are six competing teams. In this way, the five carts of medicinal materials will be confiscated and let Marquis Lu arrange it. The remaining leather ointment will be divided into six parts each. The first place will get three parts, and the second place will get two parts.
The third one gets a share.”
Everyone said one after another, "Your Majesty, this is a good idea."
Since there are prizes, everyone will not hide the competition. There are often competitions in the military, and this time it was even more exciting.
Du Changshi and Huan Li could talk very well, and they both looked exactly the same with regrets. Tang Mo said, "What's there to be sorry for? I think the team that just won was quite brave, like a wolf and a tiger."
Du Changshi explained to Tang Mo, "Yongwu is brave, but the victory just won was a narrow victory. In fact, the right wing was weak, and the general who faced him could see it. However, although that general had good eyesight, his troops were relatively weak. When faced with such a situation,
An opponent who is as wolf-like as a tiger cannot do anything, so he loses."
"Is the right wing weak? Why didn't I see it?" Tang Mo blinked with big eyes.
Huan Li taught him how to see, but it turned out that Tang Mo was not stupid at all, and he couldn't understand it no matter how much advice he had. His big, bright peach blossom eyes were like a blind man, unable to see anything, which made Tang Mo very depressed.
The generals in the army have always been generous, so General Qin said, "You two seem to be civil servants, and you are also familiar with martial arts?"
Huan Li smiled, "It's just talk on paper."
Du Changshi, "I talked about several military books when I was a child."
Tang Mo and the generals under his father-in-law are not bad. He knows well that if you want to please your father-in-law, you must not neglect the people around him. Moreover, Tang Mo himself does not have the habits of a young master. It is true that he has a good upbringing. He treats people well, and these people naturally
They are good friends with him. Tang Mo said, "General Qin, Hu's family has a long history, and the Nan'an Hou family has been a general for generations."
As soon as the Nan'an Marquis Mansion was mentioned, everyone was shocked.
Tang Mo said, "Master Du is also a disciple of Shaolin's outer sect. He is both civilized and martial, and his background is legendary."
Shaolin's outer disciples are not uncommon in the military, but Chuanlu is very admirable. He has a serious Jinshi diploma and is very hard. Everyone immediately believes that he is really both civil and military.
Du Changshi had no choice but to say, "Forget about the Chuanlu thing. The two top picks in the city are both younger than me. It would be shameful for me to tell the story about Chuanlu."
Tang Mo laughed and said, "Then I'm not even a civil servant, so I'm still alive. Everyone has their own strengths. Mr. Du, if you say so, you really don't leave a way for ordinary people like us to survive."
Du Changshi said to his heart, are you an ordinary person? However, if a lazy child like Tang Mo would not survive for a moment in his family, his elder brother would not allow his children to be so lazy. Du Changshi sat like a bell.
Looking at the flowing clouds in the sky, hey, I miss his big brother who was so impersonal and iron-clad.
Today's military parade was extremely enjoyable. In the end, the top three teams were judged. In addition to those things Mu Anzhi rewarded, the first place team was rewarded with five thousand silver, the second was three thousand, the third was also two thousand, and the remaining three, four, and five were rewarded.
Although they were just participating, each team was rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, which was tens of thousands of silver taels. However, the finale was a reward that even Marquis Lu had not thought of. Mu Anzhi didn't have much in his hands now, so he directly rewarded the army.
After winning one hundred thousand silver, he said to Marquis Lu, "Originally, I had the money to build the palace and settle down in the palace. Now that the palace is ready, the money will be saved. If there is anything urgent to add, add it first."
Marquis Lu said in a deep voice, "I will definitely live up to His Highness's gift."
In the evening, Mu Anzhi was having fun with the generals in the army. The generals had a bad impression of the vassal king. They gave him the horse first and then the silver reward. This is not a vassal king. This is a god descended from the sky.
Bar.
The military generals have their own way of having fun. Literary poems and prose are not enough. Everyone competes with swords and wrestling. In addition, although there are not many military generals around Mu Anzhi, Huan Li and Du Changshi are both good at martial arts. After drinking, they also
Let them all go, and let's compete with the big guys next time.
The generals under the command of Marquis Lu are not given for free. They are just competing with Jiang Xun and Mu Qing. Both Hu and Du are civil servants. Although they are said to be both civil and military, who is not familiar with the world? The people close to the prince, we can
You can't use all your strength, otherwise it won't be good if you get hurt. Mr. Hu comes from a family of military generals, so be careful. As for Mr. Du, he is a civil servant and a Jinshi. He is a Wenquxing who writes with a pen.
As a result, once you get started, you will be a strong opponent.
It turns out that the statement of facts about being both civil and military is not exaggerated at all.
Master Du's swordsmanship was truly outstanding. Even Lord Lu praised him and said to Mu An, "Master Du mastered his swordsmanship before he could catch it. He is truly a martial arts genius."
Mu Anzhi said, "Xiao Du's sword skills are pretty good."
Tang Mo said, "My master also said that if Mr. Du can concentrate on practicing martial arts, he is most likely to compete with me in the future."
After hearing what his son-in-law said, Marquis Lu said, "You should also compare."
Tang Mo shook his head, "No, father-in-law, I'm bleeding."
Lu Hou was finally able to avoid choking to death. He glared at Tang Mo and said, "Go and eat your barbecue."
Tang Moxin said that being a son-in-law is much more difficult than being a son. If something does not suit his father-in-law's liking, he will be unhappy. Mu Anzhi knew that Tang Mo was very concerned about his evaluation in his father-in-law's mind, so he told Marquis Lu, "Xiaobao is
He is so kind-hearted, he went on errands in other places, killed assassins, and even saved me in Luoyang, which is quite heroic."
"That's right." Tang Mo expressed himself vigorously, "After returning to the imperial capital, my uncle promoted me to a half-rank official and praised me several times."
Marquis Lu: I heard that your former officials in the Ministry of Justice all came directly to your uncle, the emperor.
Marquis Lu thought that his son-in-law was spoiled at first glance and it was not easy to hit him too hard, so he encouraged his son-in-law, "Keep working hard."
Tang Mo nodded immediately, saying that he would definitely listen to his father-in-law. In fact, Tang Mo secretly thought in his heart that after getting married, he would have more children with his wife. Being a father-in-law is obviously more prestigious than being a father! He also told this experience.
Third brother, Mu An’s life is not a happy one.
Mu Anzhi arranged the errand for Tang Mo by the way, "I will give Xiyi to you. The tribe leader will come over in a few days. You take Xiyi to receive him."
Tang Mo agreed without thinking.
After inspecting the army, Mu Anzhi had a general understanding of the Northern Xinjiang Army. The Northern Xinjiang Army also had a good impression of Mu Anzhi, the generous vassal king. Even some careful generals could vaguely understand that the people of His Highness the Prince
Goods are extremely expensive. If you look at the people around His Highness, you will know what kind of talents and backgrounds the civil servants and generals around him have. These are the first-class people in the imperial capital. Whichever house they get, they are all members of the family.
The candidate for the future helm is such a person who is willing to serve His Highness the Prince.
What is a wealthy family?
Many people only see the romance and wealth of these big families, but after hearing the legends, Lu Hou understands that the bigger the family, the more vicious it is. It is not a fight between chickens and geese in the inner house, nor a fight between brothers in the family, but
In the face of the general trend, the children of the family each made their own bet.
If you make the right move, family resources will only be tilted towards the right person from now on.
If you make a mistake, you will bear the consequences yourself.
You don't have to be poor and just be a wealthy and idle person. But wealth is limited. How much your parents are willing to give you is your own business. Don't worry about family resources.
This is how a big family survives.
Therefore, we can already learn too much information from the people around Mu Anzhi.
