fourteen master soldiers
"Bring it!"
Jiang Jibang held his head up and looked disdainful, turning a deaf ear to Lin Yu's words, "It's okay not to fire a firecracker. Give me the erotic map, and I will keep this secret for you."
Lin Yu had no choice but to take out Indian magic oil from his sleeves, quietly left the bottle and threw the box to his brother-in-law: "When I don't study well at a young age, how can my father-in-law be in peace?"
Jiang Jibang took it happily, and his eyes were straightened: "I'm called "I'm close to the vermilion and the red ones close to the ink" and "I'm thirteen, and I'll have to get married in two years."
Finally, he bribed the brother-in-law. Lin Yu ordered the Xiaoqi officials to send two soldiers to send Jiang Jibang back to the governor's mansion, but he went straight to the "Yu" camp.
The camp was stationed three miles away. Lin Yu rode his horse and whipped it. He arrived in front of the door in less than a stick of incense.
In order to avoid the mutiny of these soldiers who first rebel and then surrender again, Zhuang Zigu recruited these soldiers overnight, disrupted them, and mixed them with some Ming troops under Liu Zhaoji's command.
When Zhuang Zigu learned that Lin Yu was leaving and returning, he hurriedly took Qianhu Chen Luyao, Yang Baili, Baihu Li Gan, Zhu Hou, Ma Jin and others to greet him.
Zhuang Zigu bowed his fists from afar: "Young Master Lin fought for a day and was not at home to rest well, so why did he come to work hard again?"
Chen Luyao, Yang Baili, Li Gan, Zhu Hou and others will be Lin Yu's direct subordinates in the future, and they saluted respectfully: "See Lin Shoujie!"
Chen Luyao, who was in his early forties, was appointed Qianhu. In order to show his identity, he said with concern: "Shouge Lin fought for a day and must have been exhausted. You can rest with peace of mind in the mansion. We will definitely assist General Zhuang in obedience to these rebels, and never dare to have a second thought again."
"Chen Qianhu's words are wrong!"
Lin Yu bowed and returned the favor, and Surong corrected: "Although these soldiers betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Tartars, many of them were forced by Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu brothers, which was not their original intention. We must not brand them with the mark of traitors, so that they can atone for their merits and defend their country."
Zhuang Zigu praised the high five and said loudly: "Young Master Lin said so well, I am a rough man, and I am right!"
Not far away, the rebels who were waiting for the incorporation were all excited when they heard this, and they raised their heads and looked at Lin Yu, with gratitude in their eyes.
Lin Yu noticed the gazes of these soldiers, and immediately walked up to the parade platform with great strides, raising his arms and shouting: "Brothers, everyone is Han, all descendants of Yan and Huang. I believe you will not be willing to be ruled by the Tartars!"
Lin Yu glanced at the soldiers in the camp with his majestic eyes, quietly silently, everyone was holding their breath and listening, but the blood in their chest was slowly burning.
Lin Yu continued to whisper: "No one is perfect, even ants are greedy for life, let alone people! Although you have made mistakes, I believe this is definitely not your original intention!"
"Watching Emperor Sizong hangs himself in Coal Mountain, watching bandits sweep across the country, and watching the Tartars drive straight into the sky, I am as wandering and desperate as you. Even Wu Sangui, Zuo Liangyu and the others surrender to the Tartars. You are forced by Zhang Tianlu and Zhang Tianfu, the dog thieves, and it is understandable that they have done something wrong."
As soon as the topic changed, it suddenly became stern: "But we are consuming the military pay of the Ming Dynasty. Many people have been soldiers of the Ming Dynasty for generations. How can these barbarians drive us to massacre our compatriots?
Dorgon has issued a hair shaving order in Beijing, asking us to shave our hair and wear braids, otherwise we will keep our hair but not our heads!
As descendants of Yan and Huang, I am a country of etiquette, how can I bow down to these wild boar skins and keep braids like wild boar tails and let them drink them?"
If you are a man, you will change your past mistakes. Take up the weapons in your hand, follow me to attack Jiannu, and redeem your sins. You will still be a hero in a hundred years!"
The blood of the soldiers in the camp was ignited in an instant, and they raised their fists to respond: "We are willing to follow Lin Shoubei to attack Jiannu and redeem their sins! How can our descendants of Yan and Huang be enslaved by the Tartars? If a man does not die, the Ming Dynasty will not perish!"
"If a man does not die, the Ming Dynasty will not die!"
The roar was like a tsunami, wave after wave, and even the Ming army on the city wall was infected, raising their arms and shouting: "If a man does not die, the Ming Dynasty will not die!"
Looking at the soldiers under his feet who were dejected and depressed, with a decadent look on his face, the blood in Lin Yu's chest was also burning.
Is it better to have a king, prince, general and minister?
Since I have come to this world and have obtained the golden finger that is against the will of heaven, why not do something exciting?
The Zhu Ming Dynasty has become hopelessly corrupt. Even if it can defeat the Qing Dynasty and regain the mountains and rivers, can Zhu Yousong be able to help him up? I'm afraid he is not as good as Liu Adu?
In addition to Zhu Yousong, which of the other Southern Ming emperors in history, such as Emperor Longwu Zhu Youjian, Zhu Yihai, the governor of Lu, and Zhu Youlang, the emperor of Yongli, looked like a wise ruler?
"I am a time traveler. I don't owe the Zhu family a penny, and I don't get any money from the Zhu family? Why do I have to put the mud on the wall? These vassal kings of the Zhu family can support me if they can, but if they can't, I will do it myself!"
Looking at the fists that were constantly waving under his feet and listening to the roaring and roaring mountains and seas, Lin Yu suddenly found the direction of the future.
As the shouts gradually calmed down, Zhuang Zigu walked onto the parade and said profusely: "Young Master Lin, I didn't expect you to be a master who inspires morale. I, Zhuang Zigu, sighed that I was not as good as you!"
"General Zhuang has been too rewarded, but Lin just expressed his feelings." Lin Yu clasped his fists and said modestly.
Zhuang Zigu said sincerely: "Since Mr. Lin is so good at using troops, you should preside over the incorporation matter. I will fight you next to you."
Lin Yu had an idea in his mind, and he was not polite at the moment, nodding and said, "Since that's the case, I will talk about the organization of our 'Yuzi Camp'. I want to build a new army and adopt a completely different organization than the previous ones, so that I can improve my combat effectiveness and defeat the Tartars."
Since Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he has been using the military system of the garrison.
The court demarcated an area for an army, such as Hangzhou Guard, Weihai Guard, Dengzhou Guard, etc. The military households in this garrison lived in this area with their families, joined the army in wartime, farmed in their spare time, and were self-sufficient.
There are 5,600 military households in one guard, and the highest commander is the commander, with thousands of households under it, and hundreds of households below it. There are general flags under the hundred households, and small flags under the general flag.
The biggest feature of the Wei Sui system is hereditary. As long as there is a soldier in the family, the descendants will be all military families in the future.
When the father dies, the son is inherited by his grandson, and the brother is inherited by his younger brother. In short, as long as there is one person in the family who becomes a soldier, the ancestors will be the leader of the army for generations.
Ordinary people can farm and do business, and have the opportunity to become officials in the future. However, if they become military households, they can only serve as soldiers for generations. After all, only a few can achieve great military achievements.
As the politics of the Ming Dynasty became increasingly corrupt, the upper class of the garrison used military households as laborers to make money. Many of the excellent land allocated to the garrison were encircled by landlords and powerful people, making it increasingly difficult for the garrison households to survive. Since the Jiajing period, more and more military households have fled, and the Ming Dynasty's garrison system has gradually become abolished and collapsed.
By the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty was internal and external troubles, and ethnic minorities such as the Later Jin were harassed in the north, and Japanese pirates in the east were eyeing Korea. Internal public resentment broke out everywhere, and riots occurred from time to time. The Ming Dynasty court could only gradually implement the recruitment system.
The biggest difference between the recruiting system and the garrison system is that soldiers are no longer a lifetime system, nor do they need to be inherited by their descendants, but become a profession. The people responded to the court's call to become soldiers, worked for the court, and received military pay on a monthly basis.
In addition to the recruitment system and the garrison system, the Ming Dynasty had another military system since the Jiajing period, called the "barrier system".
The battalion soldiers were commanded by the "general officers". The source of soldiers was obtained through two ways: one was to recruit soldiers, and the other was to draw elite troops from the garrison, which gave rise to a new identity - military soldiers.
These soldiers were soldiers in the camp and paid their salaries according to the soldiers' standards; when there was no war, they returned to the garrison and became military households, enjoying the treatment of military households, and basically relying on the garrison to solve their food and clothing, and the court only issued a small subsidy.
They are all in the army and can enjoy considerable military pay in the military camp, while they can only be self-sufficient when returning to the garrison, and they cannot do business or change careers, and they have to be passed down from generation to generation.
It would be strange if such an unreasonable system is not slackened. With the escape of a large number of military households, the "military household system" of the Ming Dynasty gradually became nameless and the combat effectiveness of the military army was deteriorating. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, it could only rely on camp soldiers to fight everywhere. For example, the "Qi Family Army" commanded by Qi Jiguang was a typical representative of camp soldiers.
