Ming politicians

() The news of the replacement of the chief assistant of the cabinet quickly spread throughout the Ming Dynasty through the Di Bao.

This caused a lot of shocks. The governors and political envoys from all over the country are very concerned about this incident. Strictly speaking, they all have their own backers, and some of them belong to Zhou Yanru's confidantes. Now that Zhou Yanru has resigned, Their future will inevitably be affected. It does not mean that if Zhou Yanru resigns, they will have no way out. Otherwise, it won't take long before it may be put aside.

Jiangning County also received a report from the residence.

This incident had little impact on Su Tiancheng.

In his memory, in the records of Ming history, Wen Tiren was classified as Jianchen, but most of the records of Ming history were unreliable and not enough to be completely believed, and the records of Ming history had a lot to do with the Donglin Party members. After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, in order to shirk responsibility, the Donglin Party and Fushe may not be able to record it impartially, and intentional distortions are also possible.

He didn't have much contact with Wen Tiren, and he felt that Wen Tiren was a politician, and he was familiar with political operations and operations. In any case, Wen Tiren's ability to take the position of the chief assistant of the cabinet must have something extraordinary.

Historically, most of the comments on Wen Tiren were negative, for example, he did not offer advice, and he rejected and attacked dissidents, but there were also different comments, for example, Wen Tiren was smart and capable, honest and self-disciplined, even his opponents and enemies had to admit this a little.

Su Tiancheng is inclined to the latter view, a person who plays politics.It is impossible to be childish, such as fighting and repelling dissidents.It's impossible not to do it, if you don't do it, it will be strange, and he has a very bad opinion of Donglin Party and Fushe. He has some ideas, and if he has a chance in the future, he will talk directly to Zhu Youjian .

But comment anyway.But one thing is certain, Wen Tiren is not a talent who can support the crisis, that is to say, Wen Tiren is a talent who contributes a little benefit from time to time, it is okay to tinker, and it is good to maintain the normal operation of the court.He can completely fool the past, but he cannot change the situation, nor can he turn the tide.

Including Zhou Yanru, they are not talents who can support the crisis.

This is not their own responsibility. It is rare for such a talent to come out in hundreds of years.Historical limitations always exist, and there are only a few people who can stand at the pinnacle of history.

Therefore, Su Tiancheng was not too surprised by the emperor's move to replace the chief minister of the cabinet this time.Anyway, the situation is almost the same, and there will not be much change.

Training at the Jiangning Battalion.It is in full swing, and the focus of the training is related to two aspects, one is the training of personal physical fitness, combat coordination, and tactical literacy, and the other is ideological education.

Su Tiancheng took the work of ideological education in his own hands. He worked hard to determine the learning system of the Jiangning camp, that is, after daily training, he set aside half an hour for ideological mobilization.

It is impossible to have so many teaching materials. He thought hard and wrote a lot of speeches. These speeches involved the outlook on life, values, etc., and the forms of ideological education after hundreds of years are somewhat similar.

In Su Tiancheng's view, this kind of brainwashing is absolutely indispensable. The reason why the rogues plundered, the reason why Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others were able to recruit so many soldiers was not entirely because the peasants had no food to eat. , I was about to starve to death, and the ideological education in it played a vital role.

Whether it is drawing cakes to satisfy the hunger, or a real promise, ideological education is for one purpose, that is to defend the country, and that is the loyalty of the soldiers.

Topics such as personal emancipation of the mind and the pursuit of personal freedom and happiness are absolutely forbidden here. This is not a topic that can be discussed now, let alone spread such thoughts among the army.

Su Tiancheng believes that only with such education can it be guaranteed that when the army is defeated, the spirit of the army will still be there, and not many people will surrender. Even if they are in a desperate situation, they must fight to the death.

As for the usual big martial arts competitions, they are held frequently. The winners of the big martial arts competitions can not only get material rewards, but also be recorded by the military clerk and archived in the Jiangning camp. , It is directly related to the promotion in the future.

In just one month, the training plan determined by Su Tiancheng himself produced excellent results.

The daily study and discussion, the vigorous competition, and the big competition every ten days have become the most important festival for the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion. They need to show their abilities at this time. The officers hope that the battalion, flag, and team they lead will win , The sergeant hopes that he can leave his name in the Jiangning battalion file.

Seeing all these changes, Sun Chuanting, as a consultant, became a little numb. He didn't know how much ability Su Tiancheng had. He was not satisfied with the three thousand new soldiers who entered the barracks at the beginning. There was even a look of hatred in his eyes. It was only a month, and the barracks was alive and well.

The recruits went from indifference and atrophy at the beginning to understanding slowly, and then fully integrated, this time is too fast.

Of course, there is one thing that the Jiangning camp does very well, that is, it does not discriminate against any new brothers who enter the Jiangning camp. As long as you can come in, everyone is a brother.

The most interesting thing is that the five hundred guards of the palace were all incorporated into the Jianrui Battalion.

The battalions under the jurisdiction of the Jiangning Battalion have slight differences in combat effectiveness. The first one is of course the Scout Battalion, followed by the Xiaoqi Battalion, the Vanguard Battalion, the Jianrui Battalion, and the Shenji Battalion. Its own specialness makes it impossible to compare with the cavalry, so it ranks lower.

The guards of the palace were not convinced, they did not expect to be able to enter the Xiaoqi battalion, the battle of Mianchi, the bravery of the Xiaoqi battalion shocked them, they knew that they were still not qualified, but they could always enter the vanguard battalion, no matter what, In the battle of Mianchi, they had also been sharpened and won a complete victory.

It's a pity that in the next big competition, whether they were individuals or in a team competition, they lost miserably to the brothers of the Qianfeng Battalion. If they really competed on the battlefield, they would have been completely wiped out in front of the Qianfeng Battalion. Not to mention facing the strongest Xiaoqi Battalion. < A member of the ren, formerly known as Yan Ding, the guards of the palace heard the news, no one complained, all the people train hard every day, soldiers need to speak with their strength, and all bragging will be laughed at.

Even those Jinyi Guards and Factory Guards had to train desperately. In the Jiangning Battalion, they had no privileges. If they lacked ability, they might be eliminated step by step, or even incorporated into the infantry battalion.

The most notable change was the newly recruited [-] sergeants. Among them, some [-] or so people directly entered the scout battalion through their own efforts.

The Scout Battalion is the treasure of the Jiangning Battalion. It has less than 300 people so far. To become a scout, the conditions are extremely harsh. Speaking of which, the scouts are almost like the special forces hundreds of years later. They have to go through strict selection. It can be said that they have passed five tests Six generals.

Even in the Jiangning camp, which emphasizes equality for everyone, the scouts are the highest status. All the sergeants admire and respect them. They really have the ability to become a member of the scout battalion by virtue of their own abilities.

Soldiers have always worshiped the strong, and the scouts are special. Officers at all levels also see it in their eyes and acquiesce.

The supply of the Jiangning camp also surprised Sun Chuanting, which is not something that can be done in ordinary places.

He has visited many places in Jiangning County, and he also went to Shangyuan County. It is said that Shangyuan County is a prosperous place in Nanjing and should be stronger than Jiangning County, but the actual situation is not like this. The market in Jiangning County is prosperous. Farmers are busy with the work in the fields, and there is little sadness on everyone's face.Although the situation in Shangyuan County is not bad, they all envy Jiangning County very much. Whether they are merchants or farmers, they all hope to go to Jiangning County. Such a situation is too strange.

The salaries of the officers and men of the Jiangning camp were very high. Sun Chuanting did some calculations and found that to maintain the expenditure of nearly [-] people would require a million taels of silver every year. It was a miracle that Jiangning County was able to spend so much money.

Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, Sun Chuanting felt that Su Tiancheng was by no means an ordinary talent, and it was indeed a pity to be placed in a place like Jiangning County. In just over a year, Jiangning County has undergone such huge changes , if Su Tiancheng is allowed to serve as the prefect or even the governor, it is unknown how much he will achieve.

Of course, the bigger the place, the more contradictions we face and the more problems we need to solve.

Su Tiancheng had trained in Jiangning County for a period of time, and with rich experience, it was time for him to assume a more important position.

Sun Chuanting knew that Su Tiancheng had recommended him to the imperial court.

Su Tiancheng once asked for his opinion on whether he would like to work in the Jiangning camp, that is, to lead the Jiangning camp. When he first heard Su Tiancheng say this, he almost thought he heard it wrong. After confirming that it was true, he did not hesitate He agreed, even if it was to do a nine-rank inspection, as long as he could be in the Jiangning camp, he was willing.

What a pleasure to be able to lead such an army to fight.

Besides, Sun Chuanting has also analyzed that since the emperor granted the title of Jiangning Camp, it will not take long. As the reputation of Jiangning Camp grows, everything will change, and Jiangning Camp will become the official army of the imperial court. Time, it won't be long.

It is indeed a pity that such an army capable of recruiting and fighting is placed in Jiangning County. Of course, the Jiangning Camp is still in the process of construction, so it is better not to pull it out prematurely. (To be continued.
