Rise From the Humble

"Regarding the training of troops, I have often heard about tempering the body and discipline, but this is the first time I heard about tempering the faith. However, the spirit of an army with faith is indeed far beyond that of a ragtag army. Such ideological education Tao, it’s a unique approach, which is refreshing, and I’m a little curious.”

After listening to Zhu Pingan's explanation of ideological education, Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Pingan with interest and said.

Ideological education is a magic weapon for the Republic to win, and it is by no means as simple as refreshing.

Although Zhang Jing noticed the role of ideological education, he was just getting started.

The potential and value of ideological education are far beyond your imagination.

However, he was also limited by his understanding of the times. It is remarkable that he was able to realize the role of ideological education.

Zhu Pingan thought truthfully.

Hearing Zhang Jing say that he was a little curious about his own way of training soldiers, Zhu Pingan took the opportunity to step forward and said, "Sir, please give me a chance. I will definitely not disappoint you."

"Soldiers must be aware of the important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival. Master Zhu, in commanding and training soldiers, we must not only have a high-level view, but also understand the strategy, military tactics, and tactics, and also understand the details, how to determine the troops, and the soldiers What weapons are needed, what rations to carry with you, how to set up camp, and how to keep sentries, all these must be clearly understood, otherwise, Zhao Kuo, who talks about military affairs on paper, is a living example."

Although Zhang Jing was a little moved, he still did not let go and said to Zhu Pingan with a serious face.

"As for the formation of the militia, the lower official planned that every ten people would form a small team, that is, a team, and each of them would have a standing wooden waist card. Four teams and one sentry, that is, a large team, would have one waist card. Each official waist card would have one. Each one should have a name. Another picture of the card pattern is shown in front. We still check the military regulations, take into account human sentiments, and establish several sections of the military law. If it is urgent, we will stamp it on the back of the card. If it is slow, we will publish it together with the previous order. If you are the leader of a team, you must know that among ten people, there will be a poor person. Someone is rich, someone is strong, someone is weak, someone is going somewhere; in one call, no one is left behind; in the moment of meeting, everyone is recognized by name. There are hundreds of people in total, thousands of people in total, each one is tested based on this, It is enough to distinguish the soldiers' affection and the coach's diligence. Only when people know how to manage abalone can we expect them to work together and fight together."

"As for weapons, I secretly believe that firearms are very important."

After Zhang Jing finished speaking, Zhu Pingan explained the details of what Zhang Jing mentioned in detail.

Zhu Ping'an studied so many art of war, especially Qi Jiguang's two military books that are most relevant to this era, most suitable for military training, and most particular about details (Currently, Qi Jiguang is still in the early stage of leading troops, and these experience summaries have not yet been formed. , have not yet started writing these two military books), he not only answered the detailed questions asked by Zhang Jing with ease, but also with great detail.

Zhang Jingrao had a strong determination, but when he listened to Zhu Pingan's narration, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise. He never expected that Zhu Pingan not only knew the soldiers, but also knew all the details of military command and training. For these detailed questions that ordinary generals may not necessarily grasp, Zhu Ping'an not only answered them comprehensively, but he was also very maneuverable and could be recorded and used directly.

If he hadn't known Zhu Pingan's identity, Zhang Jing would have even suspected that the person standing in front of him was not a low-level civil servant, but a senior general. Even a senior general might not be able to summarize it to this extent.

"Master Zhu, how much do you want to raise the militia?" Zhang Jing asked.

"My lord, I have a plan for a thousand people." Zhu Pingan answered truthfully.

"A thousand people, food, wages, armaments, consumption. These five thousand taels of silver are far from enough."

Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Pingan with burning eyes.

"Sir, everything is difficult at the beginning. With these five thousand taels of silver, the militia can be organized. In the later stage, there are more ways than difficulties to open up wasteland for farming, solicit sponsorship, and raise troops through war."

Zhu Pingan replied confidently.

"A good solution is always more difficult than a difficult one." Hearing this, Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Ping'an with appreciation and nodded. Then he turned back to his desk, picked up his brush and dipped it in ink, leaned over and wrote a note, took out his official seal and put it on the Above, it was handed over to Zhu Ping'an, "Master Zhu, please go to the warehouse to collect food and wages."

"Thank you, sir." Zhu Ping'an was overjoyed. He took the approval note and thanked Zhang Jing repeatedly.

"I hope Mr. Zhu will not disappoint me." Zhang Jing waved his hand and said seriously.

"I will definitely live up to your expectations," Zhu Ping'an replied seriously.

With Zhang Jing's approval slip, Zhu Ping'an successfully withdrew 5,000 taels of grain pay from the Ministry of War warehouse.

Facts have proved that Zhu Pingan was wise to bring Liu Dadao and the others, because the five thousand taels of silver withdrawn from the Ministry of War warehouse not only contained silver ingots but also copper coins. One large box of silver ingots and three large boxes of copper coins were loaded into a carriage on the dirt road. Leaving deep ruts. Zhu Ping'an and the others had no room to sit, so they could only walk. Of course, they couldn't sit if they had one. The amount of money the horse needed to pull this cart was at the limit of its horsepower.

With these five thousand taels of silver, the militia can be organized. When you get back, you can contact the demon girl's father. Bring the tokens and credentials and ask his father to bring over the bandits who have been recruited.

At the same time, you can also start applying for a barracks location, purchasing grain, grass, ordnance, etc.

On the way back, Zhu Pingan began to plan in his mind.

"Good nephew, good nephew"

While Zhu Ping'an was planning a vigilante group in his mind, he heard a familiar call coming from behind him.

Zhu Pingan turned his head and saw Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu, who was walking out of breath. He was holding his official uniform and his body was trembling.

"Haha, you are really a good nephew. Just now I looked at your back walking out of the Ministry of War, and I felt like you. I tried shouting, but I didn't expect that it was really a good nephew." The Marquis of Linhuai gasped and laughed.

"I've met my uncle." Zhu Pingan returned the greeting with his hands in hand.

"My nephew is here on official business at the Ministry of War?" Marquis Linhuai asked.

"Back to uncle, Ping'an is responsible for arranging military equipment. He applied for food and salary from the court. I received the court's approval today and came to the Ministry of War to withdraw it." Zhu Ping'an replied truthfully. This is not a secret and there is no need to hide it.

"The Ministry of War, haha, the Ministry of War is like a brave animal now, like a miser. It's hard to get money from them. I don't know how difficult it is to spend a lot of money from our governor's office. I don't know why it took a lot of effort to spend it. So, have you paid out your food and salary? I have some friendship with Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of War, and I can help you with this." Marquis Linhuai had a bad impression of the Ministry of War, and asked after belittling the Ministry of War.

"The payment has been made." Zhu Pingan replied.

"That's what the Ministry of War is like. Ah, you paid it forward." Linhuai Marquis was surprised.

Zhu Pingan nodded.

"That man named Zhang changed his temper today?!" Linhuai Marquis said to himself.
