Chapter 69 Mobilization
Zhu Cixi nodded:
"Sit down, who has experience as a scout?"
Li Fang from one hundred households immediately stood up and saluted:
"Reporting back to Chitose, my subordinate was once a scout of Guan Ning's cavalry, and he often spied on information on slave-building activities for the border army!"
Zhu Cixiang's eyes suddenly lit up. The Guan Ning Cavalry was originally founded by Yuan Chonghuan. After Yuan Chonghuan's death, the Guan Ning Cavalry was divided into three parts.
The next group was under Zu Dashou's command, the next group was under Wu Sangui's command, and the other group belonged to Cao Wenzhao. After Cao Wenzhao died in the battle, he was recruited by Cao Huachun and joined the Yongwei camp.
There are a thousand people in the East Palace Guards from the Yongwei Camp. It is normal for Ning Tiejia scouts to be among them. They are also talents that Zhu Cixiang urgently needs.
Zhu Cixi nodded:
"You are the former Guan Ning cavalry team. I am very confident about your riding skills. How about your marksmanship?"
"Your Highness, the rifled gun is very useful. I don't dare to speak nonsense in front of you. I should be able to manage to hit nine out of ten shots!"
Zhu Cihong looked at Zhou Yuji, who immediately saluted:
"Your Highness, what Li Fang said is true!"
Zhu Cixiang was very happy:
"Okay, challenge a hundred soldiers to form a Ye Bu Shu brigade. Li Fang will serve as the temporary captain. He will give each man a gun and a telescope. Ye Bu Shu will organize a group of twenty people to spread out and collect military reports. Remember your mission.
It’s information. When you get the information, you must send it to me as soon as possible. Don’t get entangled with Jiannu at will to avoid delaying the delivery of the information.”
"Here"
There were many former members of the Guan Ning Cavalry in the East Palace Guards. Li Fang immediately left the meeting after receiving the order and went to the military camp to select members who would not be admitted at night.
After Li Fang left, Zhu Cihong asked the generals again:
"Who has the best marksmanship among the Guards?"
This time no one answered immediately. They were all modest and did not dare to claim to be the best in marksmanship. When Zhou Yuji saw that everyone was silent, he stood up and saluted:
"Your Highness, Yan Xiongying has the best marksmanship among the guards. He can hit almost every shot. His range is also higher than anyone else's. No one can match him at a distance of two hundred steps."
Zhu Cixiang glanced at everyone:
"Yan Xiongying, let everyone get to know each other!"
Seeing the general praising him in front of the crown prince and other generals, Yan Xiongying stood up a little shyly and saluted Zhou Yuji and Zhu Cixiang each with a military salute:
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the opportunity to join the East Palace Guards, and thank you, General Zhou, for the compliment!"
After looking Yan Xiongying up and down, he saw that he was tall and handsome and looked very talented. Zhu Cixiang nodded slightly:
"I believe in General Zhou's vision and appointed Yan Xiongying as the sniper captain, and selected ten soldiers with the best marksmanship to form a sniper team. Yan Xiongying, do you know what a sniper is?"
Yan Xiongying salutes:
"Xie Qiansui, I don't understand what a sniper is!"
Zhu Cixiang:
"Snipers generally do not participate in volleys of guns. Instead, they each find suitable shooting positions and targets to kill quietly. The targets are the opposing commanders and leaders, do you understand?"
Yan Xiongying suddenly realized:
"Thank you, Your Highness. The general understands that when you attack the slaves, you select their Zhangjin, Jiala, etc., so that you can let the slaves have no one to command them and they will be in chaos!"
Zhu Cixiang:
"My enemy, a boy can be taught!"
The conversation between the crown prince and Yan Xiongying made all the generals feel bright. They knew how difficult it was to kill a Jiannu Niulu, let alone their Jia La and E Zhen.
Killing the commander of Jiannu had almost never happened after the Battle of Hunhe. Now that the Ming army encountered Jiannu, it was defeated in one blow and had no power to fight.
If it is true as the Crown Prince said, it will be fun to meet Jiannu in the future. Their Niu Lu likes to take the lead in the charge. Wouldn't it be that the commander was headshot just after the battle started? Thinking about this kind of victory makes me happy.
After forming Ye Bushou and the blocking team, Zhu Cixiang decided to tell everyone about the tactics and rewards:
"Soldiers, this time the 100,000 Jian Nu army entered the pass, the East Palace Guards only had 1,000 people. In order to minimize the casualties of the guards, I decided to select a small group of them to kill, and try to reduce the number of head-on battles with the large Jian Nu army.
Of course, once they encounter a large force of Jiannu or are surrounded by counterattacks, the East Palace Guards will bravely draw their swords and never retreat, letting Jiannu know that the Ming Dynasty still has soldiers who can fight.
The reward for killing a Jiannu is twenty taels of silver. I am worried that it will be inconvenient to carry too much silver with too many people, so I decided to distribute the rewards immediately after returning to the city. Don't think that the twenty taels reward has decreased compared with before, but the guards have the advantage of firearms to kill enemies more easily.
Easy and simple.
You can rest assured that I will not be stingy with the gold and silver I have obtained. Not only will the soldiers who dare to fight make a lot of money, but you will also be promoted to higher positions. I hope that after this slave-building and blocking war, all members of the East Palace Guard will be promoted to official positions.
to more than 100 households.
In order to kill the bandits and establish slaves, the Ming Dynasty will soon recruit troops from various places, and you will become the generals of various armies. I hope you will not disappoint me, let alone bring disgrace to the East Palace Guards."
After Zhu Cihong said this, the guard general immediately stood up and saluted:
"Here! The East Palace Guards are invincible, killing the bandits and slaves, and making great contributions to the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Cixiang nodded and stood up to return the greeting:
"Soldiers, there are rewards and punishments. An invincible division with strong combat effectiveness must be supported by strict military regulations and disciplines. Otherwise, how can there be an invincible division? The Seven Killing Order, General Zhou has announced before, you must be strict
Observe, I don’t want the soldiers under my command to die in vain at the hands of my own people. Can you strictly abide by it?”
The guard generals replied in unison:
"able!"
Although the voice was loud, Zhu Cixiang didn't think it was enough and shouted sternly:
"Are you pussies? Shout out loud!"
Dozens of generals at the scene immediately stood up and roared:
"Resolutely abide by the seven-kill order, kill, kill..."
Zhu Cixiang was very satisfied with their spirit and morale, and waved to Hu Bao and Yue Yang:
"With a gun!"
The two men took the order and immediately gave each of the unarmed generals present a rifle and 2,000 rounds of ammunition.
Seeing the shell gun, the eyes of the general of the East Palace Guards immediately shone:
"Repeating gun?"
"Thank you for your gift of thousands of years!"
Zhu Cixiang waved his hands and said with a smile:
"It's not a gift. You are fighting for the Ming Dynasty. I should ensure your safety to the greatest extent. I hope that after this battle, all my subordinates will be able to triumph. This gun will be used for self-defense and critical situations. That's the end of today. We will continue training tomorrow morning.
."
"Here!"
After the military meeting ended, the generals returned to their own teams. They had to convey the contents of the Crown Prince's meeting to every soldier under their command overnight.
After a busy afternoon, most of the eunuchs of Huangzhuang who had finished the summer harvest were taken to the capital by the soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion, and the remaining ones were all sent away the next morning.
Huangzhuang has temporarily become the headquarters of the East Palace Guards. Zhou Yuji is in charge of the defense and duty arrangements, so Zhu Cixiang does not need to worry about this.
After exchanging a sand table map of the Ming Dynasty's capital and surrounding area in the system, and finding out the specific route and troop distribution of the fourth border invasion by the slaves, Zhu Cixiang studied it carefully.
"Young master, the eunuch of Huangzhuang also has a bathtub. Let the slaves wait for you to wash and sleep!"
Zhu Cixiang shook his head. He had always been served by two beautiful maids in the palace, and he was really not used to being served by a little eunuch without a penis:
"Get the hot water ready, I'll do it myself!"
"Master, let me serve you as a servant!"
"Need not!"
Zhu Cixiang waved his hand impatiently, Hu Bao looked at the young master in confusion and withdrew with aggrieved face.
