Chapter 1148 Dragon Boat Festival
In the tenth year of Wanli, the fifth day of May, people from now on should remember this day.

Wu Shanyan, the former governor who was dismissed and returned to his hometown, Mr. Wu cried, not because this year's zongzi was too bad, but because he had just woken up in the afternoon and before he had time to lose his temper, he saw the emperor Taizu's shoehorn with a dragon beard crossed his face. The courtyard wall smiled at him.

From the Sui and Tang Dynasties to the Song Dynasty, the founding emperors were all military aristocrats. The emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, who had been a monk and had to eat food, urgently needed to strengthen his orthodoxy when he came to the throne. , and gave birth to many different appearances, such as a shoehorn face and a portrait of a variant with 72 emperor moles on Liu Bang's buttocks moved to his face.

It was not until Zhu Di's time that this situation finally became normal. In fact, it was not normal, but it finally evolved to a complete body. There were no dense and frightening moles, and the shoehorn face was slightly better. The beard under the jaw grew into a dragon's beard. The appearance is mighty and tall.

But the thing that is really worth remembering by the world still happened in the north of the Dragon Boat Festival, you have to cross the Great Wall and look north.

After half a month of trekking, Qi Jiguang's troops divided into two groups, drove in the sand forest of Fenghua basalt, and led his troops to lure the main force of the local barbarians to the south bank of Dali Lake.

Last year, Qi Jiguang assigned frontier soldiers to pretend to be Mongolian riders to investigate the topography of this generation, and he specially ordered Beiyang Military Bureau Clothes Factory to rush to make a batch of sand-colored tents for him. Marching in this place is extremely difficult for the car battalion. , It's not that it's impossible to go, but it's not easy to go. The most fearful thing is to be discovered by the enemy during the march.

Because the marching road is sometimes sandy, sometimes gravel, and sometimes grassy, ​​the formation speed varies, and when it is the slowest, it will be a stick of incense slower than the land, which is to create opportunities for the enemy to kill himself.

Qi Jiguang never gave the enemy a chance.

They were successful in luring the enemy, and the rider wrapped in a sand-colored cloak reported that the barbarians were camping on the south bank, and there were yurts in the frontier, and it seemed that there were still people fishing in the lake.

The city of cars in the sand is covered with a curtain, not to mention that the enemy can't see it, even the riders in the headquarters can hardly find it if they want to go home. It depends on the indicators on the road to accurately transmit the information back.

The tired rider entered the camp and was led by the patrolmen to the tent of the Chinese army. He cupped his hands and said to Qi Jiguang: "Commander, the two generals Chaohua and Huada asked when to attack. They have followed the command of the commander and are ready to attack." All right."

Qi Jiguang didn't seem to care about the preparations for Wulianghai's surrender. He just calculated the luggage over and over again, and asked without raising his head: "When they asked you to report, did they find out where the camp is, or send someone to follow it?" ?”

"It was the Taining Guard riders who asked, heh, the commander has ordered them to obey orders."

The young scout solemnly clasped his fists in a kneeling position, not daring to make the slightest move in front of the commander, let alone in front of the commander, even the subordinates of the Qi family army dared not show the slightest slack. Speaking of this, they were very envious The Eastern Army.

Even during this expedition of more than half a year, many veterans of the Qi family army had the idea of ​​retiring after the battle and receiving the reward from the court.

They retired not because they wanted to go home and farm. The Southern Army followed Qi Jiguang to defend the southeast and north and chase the Tatars. The rewards for their excellent military skills were soft, and it was impossible for them to farm with peace of mind. Go to the Atlantic Ocean for a few more years.

In comparison, although the Qi family's military pay is high and the rewards are generous, how can the military soldiers be paid and rewarded?What's more, the atmosphere of the Qi family's army is too serious, and the military law is too strict, just like this order cavalry, if he accidentally smiles or makes inappropriate small gestures when answering the general, he will go out of the camp to find the military judge and beat him, there is no other way .

The atmosphere in the Dongyang Army Mansion is much better. According to a few people who were lucky enough to go to the Beiyang Army Mansion to arrange armaments and go to the Beiyang Army Mansion to chat with the injured and retreated Dongyang Army, Chen Shuai of Dadongyang lived a particularly happy life. He also spent a long time camping in the counties of North Asia. Pay attention to the sergeant's spare time life, don't care about eating well wherever he goes, his spare time is not like Qi Jiajun who only let him sing and learn regulations.

The flag soldiers of the Dongyang Military Mansion can read novels when they return to the camp for dinner. He is a good storyteller, plus the overseas natives respect our Great Tomorrow Army as an official lord... What kind of fairy tale is that, dare you think?
What's more, in terms of the composition of troops, the Eastern military government is uniquely endowed compared with Western and Nanyang. Nanyang is full of soldiers from Fujian and Guangxi, and the western region is full of soldiers from Guangdong and Guangxi. No one cares about you, but the Eastern Army is different. There are vagrants from four provinces, soldiers from Shaanxi and Shanxi, soldiers from Shandong and Dongzhi, soldiers from Fujian and Guangdong, and naturally soldiers from Nanzhi and Zhejiang.

Anyway, it's all a hodgepodge, no one wants to bully anyone, and you can learn a standard Shuntian Mandarin after entering the training ground of the Beiyang Military Mansion. With full payment for one year, you can buy a three-entry yard in your hometown.

That is the place where warriors in the world should go.

In fact, Qi Jiguang also knew about these things, but he didn't worry about it. He left the battlefield in the southeast to suppress the Japanese. .

What's more... the current recruitment system is very dangerous for him, and he hopes that all soldiers in the empire can receive universal, standard and strict training, which will also make him less suspicious.

As long as he is allowed to finish this battle that he does not know where it will end before being stopped by the emperor, and let him retire with success, that would be the best thing.

There is no way, Qi Jiguang can basically guess his own ending. The most distinctive feature of a person like him is not to strategize thousands of miles away, not to be able to pull a thousand catties and ride a thousand horses. As a general, the most obvious feature is training soldiers— — This is an uncomfortable position in the future history books.

Let's talk about Ma Fang, the old man is sixty years old, he rode his horse and raised his sword, and led the elite Tartars returning from the south to kick the Alda camp.

It is said that Li Chengliang, Liaodong sitting tiger elite family Ding cavalry killed the tribal chiefs called grandpa.

When it comes to Qi Jiguang, this person is obviously useless. He used the mandarin duck formation to fight against small bandits in the south. He has been stationed in the northern gate of the capital for so many years, and the mandarin duck formation is not effective. How many small battles have he fought?

Who told those who know how to train soldiers to fight, as long as the logistics can keep up, they can just push forward?
Qi Jiguang was very grateful to the ambitious Emperor Wanli for declaring war to the north at this time, giving him the opportunity to cross the desert.

He was very satisfied with the prudence of the messenger cavalry. He opened the camp tent and looked at the small flags fluttering in the wind on the heads of the men in the car formation. , Ming Qi attacked the Tuman grazing camp tonight, and when they arrived, they should have seen the flames."

The sunset in Mobei is extremely beautiful, and the sky is full of fire and clouds reflecting red. The sergeant in the car formation is busy placing the skeleton of the monster, and buckets of coal and boxes of long-twisted flower ammunition are moved into the basket.

Where the commander could not see, the mischievous sergeant used a charcoal pencil to draw a sentence of congratulations on the skin of the flying fish, for example, don't fall into Dali Lake.

In short, tonight, when the stars are shining.

　Good morning!
