Chongzhen Undergraduates

Zhu Youjian found an opportunity to put Chen Ershun down neatly.Then he threw away the wooden gun and said to his opponent on the ground: "What you say is what you say, start tomorrow. You leave the barracks!"

Chen Ershun was pale and frustrated. "Don't, Commander. Let's keep him!" Deng Zhirong interceded with Chen Ershun. He felt a little sorry for Chen Ershun. If he hadn't given him a wink at the beginning, he might have won.

"Am I someone who doesn't count?" Zhu Youjian glared at Deng Zhirong.In fact, he knew very well that this Chen Ershun was not a good soldier.It's just that he needs an example to tell the soldiers what real martial arts are.

If people like Chen Ershun stay, they will only mislead the soldiers' minds.Just like Cao Cao borrowed the head of the food transport officer, Zhu Youjian also needed a head to prove something.

The next day, under everyone's gaze, Chen Ershun packed his luggage and walked out of the barracks silently.Deng Zhirong stood at the gate, quietly watching him leave.After that, the news that the commander defeated a master with a few simple moves quickly spread throughout the barracks.

All the soldiers and officers did not believe it at first.Because Chen Ershun in the incident is recognized as a master in the barracks. He may not be the best in martial arts, but he definitely ranks ahead.

Taking advantage of this incident, Zhu Youjian quickly issued a notice to various units of the military camp, clearly stating that the military's training standard is to kill the enemy, not martial arts routines.He asked all regiments and battalions to focus on actual combat as their training goal, and they were not allowed to teach inapplicable routines and tricks.

The issuance of this order has aroused the doubts of many soldiers who know martial arts.There was an upsurge of discussion in the barracks for the first time, which made Zhu Youjian very happy.Some people questioned and discussed it in the army. This phenomenon shows that these soldiers are thinking about problems.

"They're figuring things out on their own." This is Zhu Youjian's explanation to Li Yan after listening to Deng Zhirong's report. Li Yan was stunned. Is it worth your joy that the soldiers started figuring things out?

"Yes! As long as soldiers start to think about things, it means that they will find ways to kill the enemy when they go to the battlefield in the future."

"Maybe he is also trying to save his life." Li Yan said with a smile.

"What's wrong with this, you can kill the enemy by saving yourself!" Zhu Youjian didn't care, if a soldier didn't learn how to protect himself, then what's the use, he rushed up and was killed with a single shot.

"What if the way he wants to save his life is to escape?"

"Then chop him up. Saving your life and running away are two different mentalities. The first one can be praised, and the second one must be restrained. Just like the fight between me and Chen Ershun, my skill is definitely not as good as his, so I have to think about it." Ways to save my life. My way to save my life is to practice simple moves, which can quickly achieve the effect of killing the enemy."

Zhu Youjian admitted that if it was an ordinary fight, he would never be able to pass the three moves under Chen Ershun.It is true that an ordinary person cannot beat a Lianjiazi, but through intensive training, this ordinary person can defeat a master who has practiced martial arts all his life.Who said martial arts training has to start at an early age?It's not that I want to become a master of martial arts.

If the purpose of practicing martial arts is to strengthen your body, then you must persevere; if it is to kill the enemy, you can do it quickly.This is why the boxing masters of later generations talk about practicing martial arts every day to strengthen their bodies.There is nothing wrong with their words at all, but the problem is that many people learn martial arts just to be able to beat others.

"The core of hand-to-hand combat is to be able to kill the opponent quickly and decisively. You have to dare to see the red with the bayonet, not how beautiful your routine is. No one can really make the spear technique airtight. No matter how good-looking it is, as long as you If you hit the head with a gun, you're still done." Zhu Youjian made a concluding speech on the battle at the officer meeting.

"Our goal is to be simple and effective. In the future, the entire army will carry out stabbing training. The training of stabbing requires actual combat, and don't be afraid of injury. It is better to have three ribs broken on the training ground than to be killed on the battlefield. However, the necessary protection Measures are still needed." Zhu Youjian directly borrowed some lines from "Bright Sword", although they are lines, they are very reasonable.

"Commander, is there something to say about the wooden gun you used that day?" Li Yan looked at Zhu Youjian with a smile. Ever since he came to Shandong, Zhu Youjian had brought him too many surprises.He found this emperor very interesting, and he always came up with some very practical things from time to time.

"As far as you are concerned, this is the future equipment of our army, and of course it is only my preliminary idea. I will draw it for you first." After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he took a pen and began to draw on the white paper.

After a while, an image of a firecracker with a strange shape and a long narrow-bladed knife in front was drawn.

"This is completely different from the firecracker we use." Li Yan looked at the big handle behind the firecracker, unable to understand.The handle part of the firecrackers in the Ming Dynasty is a bend. This is because the firecrackers of this period used black powder, which was less powerful and naturally had less recoil.

Even in the later stage of the Qing army's big lift, there was no thick butt.The stability effect of the butt is not used for gun shooting at all.

"This is for stabilizing firecrackers. I can't explain it clearly at the moment. You'll understand when you use it after it's built." "Look at this thing again. After adding a knife to the front, when it is on the battlefield , what kind of weapon does it look like?"

"This is definitely not a knife. A knife is mainly used for slashing. It can't be called a knife! It's a gun, and it can only be used with gun moves. No wonder the commander fought Chen Ershun that day. You are fighting the gun head with the gun head Ah." Li Yan suddenly realized that Zhu Youjian was using spear skills that day.

"So, when this thing is built in the future, let's call it a gun. One word, it sounds better than a firecracker." Zhu Youjian thought, maybe the name of the gun in later generations really came from this.

"After this thing is made, it can not only be used as a firecracker, but also as a spearman. It kills two birds with one stone!" Li Yan couldn't help but sigh.

"Things are good, but if a person takes the soldiers who are going to fight for Houjin, he probably won't be able to beat them." Zhu Youjian said the truth. People in the Central Plains do not have an advantage in physical confrontation with Houjin soldiers.Most of the soldiers of Houjin survived the harsh environment, between the white mountains and the black waters, they can grow up smoothly, and all of them are of excellent physical fitness.

"Then two will fight one." Li Yan and Hou Jin once fought against each other briefly on the northern front, and they knew how powerful Hou Jin's soldiers were, especially Hou Jin's dragoons.Ordinary bows and arrows can't do anything at all, and shooting them is tantamount to scratching an itch.

The only way is to strike with a heavy weapon, like a hammer directly hitting the opponent; or stab directly with the tip of a long spear, so that it is possible to pierce.The power of the firecracker projectiles in this period has not surpassed the force of a spear head piercing it, and the firecracker only plays a killing role, and it is far from enough to kill or penetrate armor.

"No, the most optimal tactic is three-on-one. Spearman thrusts, and a team of three is the best. When recruits train thrusts, they also practice three-three formations, one person attacking and two defending, alternately covering the attack "The three-three formation of the devils has caused enough suffering to the people of the country, and Zhu Youjian cannot abandon it. This is the result of countless actual combat demonstrations.

Chapter 51: The Most Precious Treasure

When the prince and his party arrived at Pukou, almost all the officials from Nanjing and the wealthy people from the south of the Yangtze River were dispatched, and the wharf at Pukou was crowded with boats of all sizes.

Everyone has only one purpose: to pick up the emperor!

The reality always disappointed them. When everyone knew that the emperor was not in the team going south, they were all extremely disappointed.The enthusiasm of Jiangnan people to welcome Shengjia was not limited to Ming Dynasty, but also in a certain dynasty later, and even a certain official went bankrupt in welcoming Kangxi.

Jiangnan is rich, and the rich people in Jiangnan have no shortage of food, drink and enjoyment. If they have money, they naturally want to pursue higher ideals.As the so-called seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister's door, it is the new pursuit of these rich people to be able to get a familiar face in front of the emperor who is rarely seen in ten thousand years.

Since the emperor did not come, the prince is not bad, at least he can invest in advance.The guard of honor for the crown prince crossing the river has been said to be extravagant to the extreme. More than 100 dragon boats carved with dragons and phoenixes are mighty, and there are eight pioneers just to open the way.Of course, the Jiangnan people originally prepared nine dragon boats to show the implication of the Nine Five Supremes.

Bells and drums rang together, qin and flute played together, and the boats that stretched for more than ten miles sailed along the river to the opposite bank.On both sides of the river, tens of thousands of people rushed to watch, and it seemed like a century-old drama was staged.

The only followers who were forgotten by everyone were the three hundred young craftsmen.Craftsmen are humble, so naturally no one will please them, and even the 6000 million taels of silver are ignored.You can't blame the Jiangnan people, because no one knows whether the hundreds of horses are pulling free money or not.

Holding the sword in his arms, Wang Chengen quietly watched the prince's fleet go away. The soldiers behind him were fully dressed, and a thousand soldiers were waiting for them.The soldiers surrounded the three hundred craftsmen and silver carts tightly, not daring to let any strangers approach them.

"My lord, are you safe?!" An old man wearing a eunuch's uniform and holding a dust whisk in a sedan chair carried by four people came to Wang Chengen. As soon as his feet landed, he saluted Wang Chengen with a smile.

"Grandpa Lu, the miscellaneous family has important matters to attend to, so it's better not to be polite!" Wang Chengen squinted all of them, his face expressionless.

This is not in line with common sense. Although Lu Jiude does not meet Wang Chengen often, it is not like this.Lu Jiude's complexion was a bit ugly, with patches of bruise and purple, it was a hot face stuck to a cold butt.

"Don't mind, Eunuch Lu. The miscellaneous family didn't mean to be negligent, and they really have something to do. The emperor also specially ordered that you should ask Eunuch Lu more about matters in Nanjing University." Wang Chengen then looked at Lu Jiude.

When Lu Jiude heard the emperor talking about him, his face finally looked better, and he said with a smile: "Prince and the others have already left. I don't know if Wang Gonggong has any important matters to do? Maybe the miscellaneous family can help."

Wang Chengen was also worried about how to take the people behind me across the river. Seeing Lu Jiude say this, he was not hypocritical: "Send troops and use warships to send the people behind me to the other side safely. If you lose a hair, you and I I can't even afford to pay for my head."

Lu Jiude was taken aback when he heard Wang Chengen say this. Who is there?Could it be the emperor?It doesn't look like it. Although it is heavily guarded, the people inside are like beggars in tattered clothes. From this point of view, they are like pariahs. Why is the emperor here?

"Eunuch Wang is joking. Just these people, just find a few fishing boats and send them over. How can they use warships?!"

Wang Chengen stared at Lu Jiude, sneered, Lu Jiude shuddered, and suddenly felt that things were not as simple as he thought.Lu Jiude turned around and yelled at a young man in eunuch uniform behind him: "Take my greeting card and ask Mr. Huang to send elite servants out of the warship. Do it quickly. It's urgent."

Huang Degong's soldiers came, he personally led the team, and they looked happy when they came.Apparently, he also thought that he was here to pick up the emperor this time. This kind of good thing can't be snatched, but now it fell from the sky with a snap, so he has to catch it quickly.

The material personnel loaded dozens of boats and were busy until the afternoon.Huang Degong and Lu Jiude were standing on the shore, and all the soldiers brought over also stayed on the shore.The warship was taken over, and so was the wharf, and Wang Chengen's people even carried the supplies onto the ship by themselves.

Huang Degong looked at Lu Jiude anxiously: "What kind of trouble is this?"

Lu Jiude stared back: "I don't know."

"I would like to trouble Eunuch Lu to send someone to send a message to Mr. Shi Kefa, saying that I, Wang Chengen, will not cross the river tonight, and it is not safe to cross the river at night. I will cross the river tomorrow, and I ask him to arrange a suitable place in Nanjing." After Wang Chengen finished speaking, Lift your legs and walk towards the boat.

Lu Jiude hurried forward to stop him: "Grandpa Wang, are you not resting in Pukou?"

"Our family will live on the boat tonight."

Shi Kefa was shocked when he heard that Wang Chengen was still in Jiangbei.The crown prince is important, but Wang Chengen can abandon the crown prince and stay alone in Jiangbei. What's going on?The most important thing is that I left Wang Chengen in Jiangbei in such a muddled way.Wang Chengen really represents the emperor, not the prince.

Mr. Shi dared not neglect, and crossed the river overnight, arrived at Pukou Wharf, and insisted on boarding the boat to meet Wang Chengen.But as soon as his foot stepped on the pedal, a soldier's knife was already out of its sheath: "No matter who is coming, if you dare to take another step forward, you will be killed."

This shock frightened Lu Jiude and Huang Degong on the shore, who is on this boat?Shi Kefa also wondered, when he left, he had clearly agreed that the emperor would not go south with him, how could this change his mind?

"But the emperor is on board?" Shi Kefa asked Lu Jiude.
