Because of this, Su Rong was in a very bad mood and had been stern for several days. He felt incompetent and hated that the soldiers who were not good at fighting and could not go to the battlefield would be better than death.

Mr. Cui came out in a cloak and saw Su Rong standing alone in the corridor with a gloomy face, he couldn't help but smile and shook his head: "Who is the Marquis being angry with?"

Su Rong sighed. Cui Daru was Xiao Heng's think tank. Not to mention his virtue and respect, he was also full of wisdom and tricks. He always respected him very much, so he told the truth: "I'm angry with these incompetent soldiers! Such a big Zhejiang,

Can't you really find some passionate men? You'll let the Japanese pirates bully like this for nothing!"

Cui Daru could understand Su Rong's meaning very well. He touched the beard on his chin: "That's not what it means, it's just that the bad habits accumulated over the years have not been broken. In fact, I have to say that it is not that the soldiers are incompetent, but that

There is a lack of capable and courageous generals in the army. You must know that it is easy to get a thousand troops, but hard to find a general. Therefore, we have to wait a little longer, and when Lord Qi comes over and ask him what he says."

The Lord Qi he said was naturally referring to Qi Tianyou. Su Rong also heard Su Ying say this. Now that he heard Cui Daru say this, he said: "I have heard of Lord Qi's name, but although he is in Zhejiang.

, Everyone is different, so I haven't been able to fight with him. If he has a solution, that would be great."

After talking for a while, they heard Master Cui coming, saying that Lord Qi had already arrived and asked them to go through the study together.

Su Rong and Mr. Cui went to Xiao Heng's study together.

As soon as he entered the door, Su Rong saw a handsome and thin young man. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. Didn't he say Qi Tianyou is here? But why did he only see a scholar?

Cui Daru touched his beard thoughtfully: "This is Lord Qi, right?"

Qi Tianyou immediately bowed and shouted respectfully: "Mr. Cui, I'm so rude."

This young man who looked like a bamboo pole was actually Qi Tianyou! Su Rong was a little shocked. I don’t know how famous Qi Tianyou in Zhejiang looked so weak.

He looked gentle and not like a person who licked blood on the edge of a knife.

Xiao Heng had already greeted them and sat down, and said to Su Rong with a smile: "Tianyou mentioned you just now, saying that he knew you had chased you to the beach with more than a hundred people. I admire you very much."

Su Rong was a little flattered.

Qi Tianyou had already smiled and said, "Yes, I just mentioned to Your Highness that it is really rare for you to chase Japanese pirates with more than 100 people. The Marquis has been to Zhejiang for so long, and he should have known the atmosphere here.

, It is not difficult to fight the Japanese pirates, but what is even more difficult is that the atmosphere is bad. If your own soldiers refuse to fight, the Japanese pirates will naturally become arrogant. It is already very rare that you can command so many people."

Su Rong sighed: "Actually, among these 100 people, there were more than 20 personal soldiers from me, and the others were also brought out after I came. I was really sorry for being too strong at that time.

I don't know why this happened."

"Actually, this is normal." Qi Tianyou explained: "Since the abolition of the sea ban, the soldiers of Ningbo and Hangzhou guards have become very loose. In addition, the military expenditure has become less, and most of the time they lack training, even if it is

Later, when the government took office, he deliberately resumed training and coastal defense, but he was also a little helpless."

Cui Daru listened quietly on the side and suddenly asked, "I don't know, what can General Qi do?"

Su Rong also pricked up his ears very seriously.

Qi Tianyou scratched his head. Although he was very handsome and weak, he was not actually the case. He could tell that this person had a very fast reaction and a clear mind.

He said bluntly: "These groups of soldiers are not good enough, and they can't continue to use them. If they meet Japanese pirates, they will run away. This is their deep-rooted idea. It is better to recruit soldiers separately and train a group again."

Su Rong was a little sad: "We thought of this idea before, but the newly trained soldiers were not much better, they were all the same."

This can be verified from this incident.

Qi Tianyou was very sure: "No, I mean, I want to select thousands of people, and everything starts from scratch. I want to have people choose these people one by one, not to be able to join the army when I get old, but

There is a requirement."

He paused and said, "Besides, I will give them more military pay. I will give them two taels a month to join the army."

This alone is attractive enough.

Cui Daru narrowed his eyes: "Then do you mean to recruit soldiers by yourself and lead them by yourself?"

Qi Tianyou obviously had already made plans, and now he said it very loudly: "Yes! That's what I think. At these times, I want to go around and see where to choose from."

Su Rong felt that this idea seemed a bit fantastic.

The recruitment team is a choice that is suitable for the age, and sometimes even the physique is not good. Now Qi Tianyou says that he should look for it according to this standard, which is really difficult.

Xiao Heng thought about it carefully and nodded: "Since that's the case, General Qi can let go and choose. This palace will give you time! The conditions you promised can also be discussed with the court."

This really gave Qi Tianyou a lot of autonomy.

Even Pang Qingping dared not agree like this before.

Qi Tianyou immediately bowed his hand.

Next he told Xiao Heng and Su Rong about the current situation in Japan. The Japanese leader is actually a family called the Nishikawa clan, but I don’t know how long they can control Japan, because a while ago,

They are not the leader of the Nishikawa clan, but another daimyo. Japan is now in a turbulent Warring States Period.

It is precisely because of this that the Japanese pirates have been very uncontrollable recently and have all kinds of ingredients.

He said without hesitation: "According to being Japanese pirates, most of them are probably our Great Zhou people! They just wandered to the sea and became pirates. They often beat their own people the most cruel.

, This is how they betray their own people and the people, and they are even more cruel than Japanese pirates. So what we want to eliminate now is nothing more than those pirates who have been in trouble for decades, and they must win, otherwise, our Great Zhou Dynasty

The people will never have peace.”

This battle must be fought and must be won. Qi Tianyou is very clear about it.
