Chapter 146: Thirty-Three


Chapter 146 Thirty-three "The one-legged salt ambassador" Wu Liangmou smiled bitterly, feeling weak all over his body.

There is a price to be paid for gaining fame right away, and it is no joke to say that one general's achievements lead to the death of thousands of people.

I am afraid that most of the people who walk on this road will become a withered skeleton halfway, regardless of their high or low birthplace or noble bloodline.

"Go and tell Liu Zi when you have time.

If he doesn't want to be a salt ambassador for the rest of his life, he should take good care of himself and the people around him."

He glanced at Liu Kui who was giggling, and then added solemnly.

The expression of vicissitudes of life seemed to be decades older than the other person.

"I know, don't worry, Han Liuzi definitely knows what's appropriate.

He's not stupid."

Liu Kui smiled naively and said it casually.

In his opinion, Governor Zhu's decision to hand over the position of Salt Ambassador to Xiaoliu of the Han family clearly contained the flavor of reward based on merit.

As long as Han Liuzi doesn't stretch his hand too far, even if he makes some mistakes.

Considering that he risked his life to get into the sewer that day, Governor Zhu would turn a blind eye.

"Forget it, I'll go find him myself when I can stand up and walk someday."

Wu Liangmou waved his hand after realizing that he had no reason to talk to Liu Kui, a bastard like him, with a look of helplessness on his face.

This is not a matter of proportion or lack of proportion at all, but a matter of having a broad mind and vision.

There are currently very few educated people in the Zuo Army, including the group of young people who were sent to the army by their families for training, that is, those in their 50s and 60s.

Many of them are barely literate and have never attended any private school or education.

The official guy.

This is destined that even if everyone can't make any achievements in the army, they will still get a good position in Huai'an City.

After all, everyone is a member of the team who started their careers following the Governor earlier, so their loyalty is guaranteed.

But this innate advantage can only last until now.

After conquering Huai'an, the Zuo Army quickly improved dozens of levels, regardless of its own strength or future prospects.

The previous embarrassing situation of asking for money to pay for a scholar, but the other party refused to buy it, will be gone forever.

In a short period of time, there may be many heroes and celebrities who have not been recognized for their talents or who are originally very dissatisfied with the imperial court.

And at this time, if someone is still showing off his seniority, it is because he is in trouble with himself.

Even if Governor Zhu wanted to ignore his previous merits, he would still be extremely disappointed with such a person.

The position vacated by this person in the governor's heart will soon be filled by new young talents.

"I heard from my grandfather that the governor was planning to vacate the old house of Dalu Huachi in Huai'an and use it as a Jixian Pavilion."

Liu Kui didn't quite understand what Wu Liangmou said, but that didn't mean that others couldn't understand.

At least Shi Ludeshan, commander of the Fifth Army, understood Wu Liangmou's hint, smiled and whispered, "It is said that the academic administration that was abandoned by the imperial court will be reorganized.

The academic affairs at the four levels of road, prefecture, state and county The museum has been vacated , is currently recruiting teachers with a lot of money.

Some time ago, Mr.

Su sent people to the Yangzhou area to secretly recruit people, and some of them have come here recently.

Depending on the situation, the governor plans to evaluate the abilities of each of them and then use them based on their talents. " When it came to this, Liu Kuicai finally understood a little bit about the taste.

He raised his eyes and said with great dissatisfaction, "Are you here to run for office?

These guys won't come sooner or later.

They really know how to choose the right time."

"What's this?"

Probably because he also felt a little external challenge, Lu Deshan glanced at him and curled his lips and said, "It's just a Huai'an.

Just wait and see.

When we take Gaoyou and Yangzhou, or the army goes south."

In Zhejiang and Zhejiang, there are more scholars who come here to study.

That's where the people are and where the imperial court is.

The imperial examination has not been held for many years, and passing the exam may not necessarily provide a way out.

Over the years, scholars have been driven crazy.

As long as our left army maintains its current victorious momentum, even if we do not receive a single salary.

The scholars who come to serve have to break through the city gate.

If you don’t believe it, just wait and see.”

"Just take a look.

If you don't believe that all of them can climb up to me," Liu Kui's unwillingness to admit defeat was immediately aroused.

He curled his lips and shouted loudly, "It doesn't matter if you read a lot, I'm not a target."

Ignorance haha, not only have I read books, but I have also crawled through the gutter.

I am also afraid of these poor people.

You two are busy first.

I will go and wake up Xiao Liuzi and let him take care of himself.

Don't lose us men in the future.

Face" Having said that, I was no longer in the mood to tell Wu Liangmou about the specific changes in the Zuo Army in recent times.

He turned around and ran away as fast as he could.

"This kid" looked at his panicked back, Wu Liangmou and Lu Deshan shook their heads and laughed.

After laughing, they all felt a hint of pressure.

Saying that others are the icing on the cake, their qualifications are actually not much older than the newcomers.

Being placed in the position of the commander and chief of the army, there will definitely be many pairs of eyes staring at him, and he will definitely become an early target for newcomers.

Especially for Lu Deshan, I am afraid that many people will think that he was able to reach the position of long history only because of his grandfather's contribution, and he has no real ability.

Thinking of the many challenges we would face together in the future, Lu Deshan took the initiative to walk to the bedside and tried with a smile, "Lu is not familiar with military affairs.

If there is any impropriety in what you do in the future, please give me some advice from General Wu."

"Wu knows a lot more than you," Wu Liangmou immediately laughed and waved his hand, "Brother Lu, don't say any kind words.

Let's discuss it and try not to betray the governor's trust."

"Of course."

Lu Deshan also laughed and nodded knowingly.

"The governor specially arranged for us people to be together.

He must have this intention."

"I guess that's the case.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be much easier to send a veteran to take charge of the Fifth Army?"

Wu Liangmou nodded and continued to add with a smile.

There were some signs of competition between him and Lu Deshan in Zhu Bayi's shogunate.

But at this stage, those previous rivalries can no longer be taken seriously.

Right now, what is more important for the two of them is to work together to make something famous as soon as possible.

Only in this way can we dispel the prying eyes of those who are unconvinced outside and truly gain a foothold in the Fifth Army.

Wu Liangmou knew this in his heart, and Lu Deshan knew it even more.

When two smart people are together, a lot of things can be said at a glance.

Soon, the two became familiar with each other, and the topic of conversation quickly shifted from external changes to the construction of the Fifth Army itself.

The framework has already been set up.

The middle and low-level officers are all selected from the previous combat soldiers.

The total number of troops is set at about 6,500, with one brigade each for combat soldiers and auxiliary soldiers.

These items were all decided long ago.

There was nothing the two of them could change, so they no longer wasted energy.

In this way, the ability to easily demonstrate one's abilities in a short period of time can only fall into two aspects: the speed at which the new army's combat effectiveness is formed and the strength of its combat effectiveness.

In this regard, the two chatted for a few words and quickly reached an agreement.

"I don't know if General Wu has noticed that although the method of organizing and training the new army by the governor is based on the Tang system, it is also very different from the Tang system."

Finding that Wu Liangmou's ideas were similar to his own, Lu Deshan quickly brought the topic to the topic.

"Don't always be General Wu.

General Wu's Wu is older.

In private, you and I might as well be brothers."

Wu Liangmou quickly corrected him first, then nodded with a smile, "From the introductions you and Liu Huanwu just made, Brother Yu I do feel some changes.

It was born out of the Tang system, but it is much more refined than the Tang system.

In short, it is very different from the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasty."

Not only the Tang Dynasty, but also the military systems of all the Central Plains dynasties were much more sophisticated than the current Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties.

Taking the early government army system as an example, there were regiments under the Zhechong government, with each regiment having 200 men; there were brigades under the regiments, each with 100 men; under the brigades there were teams, each with fifty men; under the teams there were fires, each with ten men. .

Below the men, sometimes there are even teams.

Each team of five people is the smallest and most basic combat unit.

It is unprecedented that the military system of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties was as crude as this.

But they bulldozed the Southern Song Dynasty and swept away the Jurchens and Dangxiang, which was indeed miraculous.

"Many Mongolians are illiterate."

Encouraged by Wu Liangmou's words, Lu Deshan smiled and continued to add, "So the rough military system of ten thousand, thousand, one hundred, and ten is tailor-made for them.

And the younger brother saw the governor I have been asking you to teach the soldiers how to read.

I am afraid that I was preparing for this moment."

"The governor's plans are far beyond your reach," Wu Liangmou praised insincerely, then smiled and nodded, indicating that if Lu Deshan had anything to say, just say it.

Lu Deshan did not follow his request, but thought for a moment before continuing to ask, "In addition to having many more levels, the new military system also pays special attention to every three to one.

I wonder if Brother Wu has paid attention to it?"

"I know this."

Wu Liangmou understood this deeply and waved while lying on the bed with a smile.

"It's mainly for the convenience of command.

To be honest, during the war, a commander claimed to have ten centurions by his side.

In fact, he could If you greet five people, you will be overwhelmed.

Normally, you can only manage three of them.

One position, one on the left, one on the right, and the others all depended entirely on the centurion's eyesight.

When he noticed the situation changed, he immediately led his brothers to follow him, and the centurion who had bad eyesight killed them all.

He went to the front, and his hundreds of men were still scattering sheep behind, which was of no use at all."

"Brother Wu is absolutely right about this.

But he may not have fully guessed the Governor's thoughts."

Lu Deshan quickly took over and reminded in a low voice.

"Is it possible that Brother Lu has seen other clues?

Why don't you tell me?

Let's go over the details together."

Wu Liangmou was a little unhappy at first, but then he thought that there was Lu Luzeng behind Lu Deshan, who was far better informed than himself.

Then he smiled and ordered very humbly.

"Dare to disobey orders?"

That's what Lu Deshan wanted.

He gently raised his hand and continued to add: "According to my guess, the governor implemented the three-to-one formation in the new army, probably for the sake of firearms.

You and I, brothers, want to do it.

Have made some achievements, I'm afraid I'm afraid, I have to take out the thing that fell on this firearm alone.

Even if it is an artillery, it will be difficult to exert its power.

But if it can be formed into a suitable array, it cannot be said to be invincible.

It will definitely not be easily defeated by the same force. other people" Note: There is only one update left today, so don’t wait.

I can't help it, there are some things that need to be dealt with urgently, I'm sorry.

Note 2: I saw some readers questioning the three-three system.

In fact, it doesn’t matter what kind of system, what matters is the one that suits you best.

For cavalry outside the Great Wall, after the horses charge, they can naturally stay in groups.

Therefore, the rough system of ten thousand, thousand, hundred, and ten is just right.

The more complex the arms are and the higher the requirements for coordination between them are, the more detailed the organization needs to be.

Otherwise, in an era when communication basically relies on shouting, it is destined to be a tragedy
