Borrow the day to change the day

"Your Majesty, Jin Yiwei has arrested eight more people today. Seventeen high-level officials have been arrested, and hundreds of low-level officials have been involved." Wen Tiren summarized the anti-corruption results of the past few days to Emperor Chongzhen, There is too much meaning in the words.

"So what, everyone is greedy, my treasury is empty, and their houses are full of gold and silver. If they don't arrest them, Ming Dynasty will fall into their hands!" Emperor Chongzhen shouted angrily road.

These senior officials of the imperial court used their powers to corrupt and pervert the law, involving almost all aspects of the imperial court.On the one hand exploiting the people, on the other hand withholding the imperial court’s silver from the treasury, and privately selling the imperial artifacts, the huge amount of income and the large number of participants were unheard of by Emperor Chongzhen. of these people.

Emperor Chongzhen remembered that Master Zhong said that he was the king of subjugation. He used to be a little puzzled, but now it seems that this is really the case. If the country is subjugated, it will be at their hands.

"Your Majesty, please appease your anger. I understand your Majesty's feelings. It is not a pity to kill these moths. But in this eventful time, so many senior officials have been arrested, which may not be conducive to the stability of the court." Wen Tiren still advised Emperor Chongzhen to accept it first. hand. [

Emperor Chongzhen didn't want to make such a big move at first, but seeing the shocking confessions one by one, aroused his anger, and decided to rectify vigorously.

"Elder Ge, have you ever thought that these moths occupy the official position, even if the court is stable, what's the use of keeping them lying on the body to suck blood?" Emperor Chongzhen still disagreed with Wen Tiren's opinion.

"Your Majesty, many officials have been arrested, and there have been many things that have been dealt with and have been delayed for several days. I hope that Your Majesty will stop for the time being, and only catch part of it at a time, so as not to affect the handling of court affairs." Wen Tiren said earnestly.

"Ge Lao, if the crimes of the officials involved are not serious, I believe you are. But look, all of them are big moths, and the family who has been greedy is richer than me. Let it go Where is the reason for them?"

Neither of the two convinced the other, and each had its own reasons.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen knew that the position vacated because of being arrested would not be good if it affected the normal work.Therefore, he instructed Wen Tiren to say: "The cabinet, together with the Ministry of Officials, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will select the best alternate officials based on the assessments over the years and the list of the Beijing Procuratorate to fill various vacancies.

Wen Tiren looked at the resolute look on Emperor Chongzhen's face, knowing that it would be useless to say anything, so he agreed and resigned before going to work.

He knew in his heart that since Emperor Chongzhen insisted on destroying all the big moths, the storm would probably become more and more violent, and no one knew how it would end.

In the early morning of the next day, Guan Ningjun's elite did not accept at night, and Hu Hao's team saw King Qin's camp from a distance, heaved a sigh of relief, and finally came back.

The group of them rushed back after that r appeared at the boundary of Changli, but they didn't expect to bump into the Tartars who came out to fight the autumn wind head-on, and they blocked their way.

Hu Hao had no choice but to take his brothers to circle around with the Tartars. Fortunately, they were more familiar with the terrain than Jianlu, so there were no casualties. It took a day and a night to get rid of the pursuers, and it took a night to return to the camp.

At this time, they were exhausted and just wanted to go back to the camp and have a good sleep.

A group of people entered the camp, the other brothers went to rest, and Hu Hao went to report the battle situation.

Zhong Jinwei didn't stay at the construction site any more that day. After waking up, he left the new cement factory with the guards of the East Factory, and only went to Qin Wangjun's camp to find Sun Chengzong.

In the past few days, whenever Zhong Jinwei was free, he would read the military book given by Sun Chengzong. In his dreams, he dreamed that he brought a new type of army, trained hard, and fought in all directions, facing the enemy.

What's even more ridiculous is that he actually dreamed of Xu Sanduo and Gang Qilian.After waking up, Zhong Jinwei thought of the scene in his dream, and he didn't think it was funny. It's just a pity that after traveling to the Ming Dynasty, there is no need to watch such excellent TV series as Soldiers Assault.

With the questions in the military book, he went to ask Sun Chengzong for advice, in order to bring out a strong army suitable for the Ming Dynasty after clarifying the doubts.

When Sun Chengzong saw Zhong Jinwei, he was very surprised for a while, wondering what Uncle Zhongxing wanted to do so early in the morning.

He asked Zhong Jinwei: "Have you fired all those things?" [

Just as Zhong Jinwei wanted to explain his purpose, he didn't think that Sun Chengzong would ask him about it first, so he replied: "Not yet, but it's only a matter of two days. It will be soon after several new kilns are topped."

Sun Chengzong gave him to the seat while listening to him. After hearing Zhong Jinwei's answer, he widened his eyes and said in a loud voice: "I ran to Daying before I finished my work. Could it be that I came to see you again?" Brother-in-law can’t do it?”

The Dongchang fan who followed Zhong Jinwei heard that Sun Chengzong made fun of Uncle Zhongxing, pretending to be something, but secretly amused him.

When Zhong Jinwei heard that this old guy was old, old, and talking nonsense because of his qualifications, he felt very sorry, but it also made him feel the kindness of the old guy. I really forgot, do you have a pen and paper here, I will write a love letter and ask my brother-in-law to bring it to my fiancée."

Sun Chengzong was going to appreciate the young man's blushing expression, but he didn't expect Zhong Jinwei to answer like this, which made him very angry, so he asked, "Tell me, what is the matter with finding this old man?"

Zhong Jinwei's face still needs to be thickened, and he stopped smiling. He replied: "I don't understand some things about Mr. Sun's art of war, so I want to ask you in person."

Unexpectedly, Zhong Jinwei studied his art of war so seriously, and Sun Chengzong admired him very much.He pointed to the tea ceremony that the guard had just brought up: "Come on, let's chat while drinking, feel free to point out anything you don't understand."

Zhong Jinwei did not go to serve tea, but said to Sun Chengzong who was going to serve tea: "Master Sun, the combination of chariot, infantry and cavalry mentioned in this military book is also equipped with shotguns, Flang machines, three-eyed blunderbusses, Rockets, artillery, isn't it too complicated to deal with Jianlu who has no firearms?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Chengzong put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Zhong Jinwei and asked him, "Oh, is it too complicated?"

"Yeah, with more configurations, the logistics pressure will be greater. It's better to be simpler." Zhong Jinwei expressed his thoughts, which was also a question he had when he read the book of war.

Sun Chengzong nodded. It can be seen that Zhong Jinwei knows the logistics. He is not a person who does not understand military affairs at all, so he asked Zhong Jinwei: "I don't know what Uncle Zhongxing thinks, how can we keep it simple?"

"Only two types of musketeers and pikemen are enough, and at most some cavalry can be added to protect the flanks. They can also be used to chase the enemy when they win." Zhong Jinwei described the most common form of cruelty in the books of time travel that later generations read. The method is explained, and he reads all those books written like this, and it makes sense to think about it.

Zhong Jinwei was afraid that Sun Chengzong would not understand, so he further explained: "Pikemen use very long spears, lined up in tight formations, and are used for close combat; long-distance ones rely on musketeers, divided into several rows, or three-stage attack. , Master Sun, do you understand the three-stage strike, let me explain again."

Sun Chengzong raised his beard when he heard it, and interrupted: "Three-duan strike has been used since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. You said that I have led soldiers for so many years, do you understand it or not?"

"Ah, it was there at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China?" Zhong Jinwei was dumbfounded when he heard it. Isn't this a tactic learned from the West?

"Muying, the king of Qianning in the Hongwu period, pioneered the three-stage attack. The firearms troops of the Ming Dynasty have always used this tactic. In fact, there is another tactic called stacking formation. The main purpose of this tactic is the same, that is, to keep the firepower continuous, as long as the troops are led longer. Everyone understands that no one is a fool on the battlefield." Sun Chengzong explained to Zhong Jinwei, considering that Zhong Jinwei had returned from overseas and was relatively ignorant about the history of the dynasty.

Zhong Jinwei heard the words, and he should have thought that in terms of wisdom, the ancients were no more stupid than modern people, and things that mattered life and death on the battlefield would not go unimproved.

Seeing that Zhong Jinwei didn't speak, Sun Chengzong thought that what he said was a little serious, so he comforted him: "Young man, it's understandable if you don't know much. Haven't you finished talking about simple tactics? Tell me, maybe I can point out a thing or two."

"Actually, it's almost the same. The muskets take turns to shoot far away to kill and injure the Tartars. The spears form a tight formation and stab the rest of the Tartars to death. The next step is the cavalry chasing and attacking the scattered Tartars. Sir Sun, you, Do you think that fighting like this is much simpler than what is said in the book of war?" Zhong Jinwei said a little unconfidently after being hit by Sun Chengzong.
