Chapter 706

The staff behind Xu Ding were very familiar with the ship: "This ship has a single mast, and it is the most common Tongzhou-like ship in the Ding Navy fleet. Although the captain is not One hundred feet, placed in a pool, it looks like a giant."

"That's right. To the north of this pool, there is a swamp connected to Lushui River. I heard that in order to drive the ship into the pool of the Imperial College before the cold weather freezes, Chen Ran, the pro-military commander, used hundreds of trackers to run in the swamp again. It took a lot of work to pave the road. The reason for this is that Zhou Guogong needs to cut ice in the pond where the boats are moored at any time, so that he can practice in winter."

The aide's expression froze: "Could it be that Zhou Guogong intends to use troops at sea?"

"That's not true... When you came, you should have heard that in Dinghai's naval fleet, many leaders and ministers were bribed by the Song people, and then they took advantage of the opportunity of the Jurchens in Zhongdu to make trouble. Assassinate Zhou Guogong?"

"Cough, cough, cough..."

The staff member coughed twice, subconsciously turned back to look at the other companions, and slightly raised the hood with the edge of the wind to see Xu Ding's expression.It turned out that this person was actually Jia She.

It was Jia She who set up the bridge with one hand, which led to the rebellion of the leader of the Ding navy fleet.There was a ghost in his heart, and he panicked immediately. After taking a second look, he guessed that Xu Ding was speaking unintentionally, and casually mentioned: "This... I have indeed heard of it."

"After that incident, Zhou Guogong redefined the operating rules of the fleet under the direct control of the navy. The most important one is that after the crew has obtained the position equivalent to that of a general in the army, they must gather their family members in Tianjin. Fu, Yidu, Fuzhou, and Laizhou were resettled in one of the four places. At the same time, all crew members, including Gangshou, were divided into three shifts. Each shift boarded the ship and went ashore in turn according to the command of the military government. Take a rest, and no longer allow ships and people to wander outside all year round, and act on their own outside the orders of the Marshal's Palace."

Jia She nodded: "In this way, Gangshou and the crew will be treated as naval officers and soldiers, and managed according to the method of controlling soldiers. Every ship is no longer the gangshou's cronies; If the people like him want to respond to the invitation of outsiders, there will be many eyes watching them on their own ship. And if the military government makes some moves at sea, they can use their arms and fingers like commanding land soldiers and horses, and there is no longer the risk of losing control. But..."

"But what..."

"But in this way, is the number of ships enough? Can the number of sailors and crew support three shifts?"

"Haha, let's ignore him about the boat. Brother Ji Chuan, do you see that there are many people gathered on the boat, some climbing the mast, some throwing cables and sails, and some fighting with each other? Among those people, half of them are veterans who have experienced sea trials and hardships, and half of them are newly recruited from local and various ministries. The leader, the leader of the ministry."

Jia She frowned and thought for a while: "In other words, there are courses for training leaders in the Imperial College. But what does this mean? Prime Minister, I really don't know the meaning of it... The people on the sea are brave and ruthless. Qi, the heroes in the army are also strong and generous, they all study in the Imperial College, ahem, Zhou Guogong really doesn't care about the country's cultural context..."

"There are five hundred warriors in the Guozijian, including sailors from the sea, veterans guarding the northern frontier, and aliens from the center of the Northeast. Half a year ago, with their bravery, they became the generals in one fell swoop. There are five hundred scholars in the Guozijian, including us, the children of the old ministers of the Great Jin Dynasty, the descendants of the soldiers who died in the Ding Navy, and the Jurchen noble youths who sincerely contributed to the new dynasty..."

Xu Ding drew a big circle with his hands: "All these people will be taught and tempered here. Here, there are few distinctions between civil and military, sea and land, and even Han'er and Jurchen; everyone They can choose the path they really want to take according to their own strengths. At the same time, they will naturally gather under Zhou Guogong's command and fight for Zhou Guogong's future!"

Jia She showed a pensive look on his face, he knew that what Xu Ding said was undoubtedly the truth.

This approach, in the eyes of a Southerner like him, is simply unimaginable.But in the eyes of the people of Dajin, they are not particularly deviant.

After all, the northern Han people are used to seeing foreign races establish a country by force. Anyway, when Daliao and Dajin rose, there was no context to speak of. That being the case, Duke Zhou didn't need those, so what?
Zhou Guogong needs his subordinates to have both civil and military skills. Isn't that in line with the vigorous and decisive ethos of the founding of the country?
The Guozijian in front of him is the place where Zhou Guogong broke up countless hills under his command one by one, and then twisted them into a ball again. It is the place where he trains the disciples of the emperor in the future, and it is also the place where he decides the employment plan of the new dynasty for decades.

The routines here are clearly contrary to those of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, and are completely different from Dajin's political methods in the past few decades.Scholars born out of this, even those who wanted to be civil servants, were forced to be imbued with martial arts, and they were not the same as ordinary scholars.

They don't need to consider such vain things as context, but only need to consider the strong brand of Ding Hai on their bodies.With this imprint, they embarked on the ascending channel belonging to Dinghai, and from then on they had to unite with Zhou Guogong.Only when Zhou Guogong's regime is flourishing, can the ascending channel always exist, and their interests and future can always be guaranteed.

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, this approach is really good."

Xu Ding laughed easily: "I myself, relying on my father's shelter, stole my status as a Jinshi. In fact, I don't know anything about Fu and Confucian classics. What I'm good at is only practical work. If you do practical things, you will make mistakes, and if you make mistakes, you will be criticized. If you are criticized, you will be notorious. But people like me are the ones Zhou Guogong can use...Since Zhou Guogong is willing to use me, I will naturally be loyal to Zhou Guogong."

Jia She pondered for a moment, then smiled.

While chatting, the two slowly rode their horses towards the pool.Because they were able to talk into the harbor, they didn't notice that there were some soldiers guarding around the pool, and the people who were fighting on the warships in the pool at this moment were not ordinary students.

A thin man, steaming and sweating all over his body, looked down from the mast with his bare legs curled up.After watching for a while, he slowly slid down, then stretched out his arms again, and grabbed the swaying sail rope.In the next instant, he jumped down along the sail rope, his speed was as fast as lightning, and finally, taking advantage of an enemy's unpreparedness, he kicked him in the vest.

The enemy was proficient in martial arts and had extremely strong physical strength. With a short stick in his hand, he continuously knocked down many nearby warriors.When he was majestic and majestic, he didn't prevent this heavy blow from falling from the sky, and suddenly he couldn't stand still, and he staggered forward.Just at this time, the ship was blown by the wind again, and suddenly deflected to the side. He lost his footing and finally fell to the ground.

Dozens of people on board cheered in unison: "Overturned overturned overturned overturned! We overturned Marshal Guo!"
