Today, Lin Mojun in the Hundred Households Office is not wearing a military uniform, but is wearing a set of loose casual clothes.
Lin Mojun tied up her hair with a hairpin. Although Lin Mojun still covered her face, she looked a little less heroic than usual.
Su Ze also found it a bit incredible that Lin Baihu was the daughter of Baihu.
However, now that the Japanese pirates are serious in the southeast of the imperial court, the vacancies of hundreds and thousands of households in many guard stations cannot be replaced. After the death of the previous Lin Baihu in the battle, the Fuzhou Prefecture's Dusi Yamen and Haido Yamen actually felt bad, watching Paoze rescue Fuzhou Prefecture.
However, they were massacred by Japanese pirates, and thousands of households were afraid to leave the city for rescue due to the command of the entire city.
Therefore, the Lin family submitted an application for Lin Mojun to temporarily act as a temporary representative for hundreds of households. Dusi Yamen did not send anyone to verify the application and directly sent it to the Ministry of War for filing.
Lin Mojun's idea was also very simple. When Lin Liangjun came of age two years later, he would fake his death in battle and disappear, and then he could give his position in Baihu to his younger brother.
For those who are familiar with Changning Guard, if Lin Mojun and his brother continue to be the 100 households of the guard and ensure that the Lin family continues to inherit the 100 households, then Changning Guard will be able to have peace of mind.
If a dishonest person really comes from the distant sect, Changning Wei will really not be able to survive.
Su Ze entered the Hundred Household Office, and Lin Mojun handed Su Ze a letter and a book.
"This is the military document and letter sent by my uncle. I have something to discuss with Mr. Su."
Military book?
Su Ze is preparing to upgrade his "Art of War" skill to level five, and someone is giving him a pillow if he falls asleep?
Military books are hard to find, and the Ming Dynasty's attitude towards military books was sometimes prohibitive and sometimes loose.
In the early days of the dynasty, the control of military books was naturally very strict, but as the times developed, the management of military books was not so strict.
However, there are still very few military books on the market. The reason is also very simple. Who has nothing to do and buy military books?
There were martial arts examiners in the Ming Dynasty, but those who could take the martial arts examinations were those who were noble military guards and were at least descendants of a thousand families.
These people all have military books passed down from their families, but why would ordinary scholars buy military books if they have nothing to do?
It’s not profitable to print this thing, and the pirated booksellers in Jianyang don’t like printing it.
But towards the end of the Ming Dynasty, things changed again.
The situation in the late Ming Dynasty was turbulent, and scholars also liked to buy some military books so that they could deal with national issues.
Many scholars who had never led soldiers also began to write military books, using their imaginary strategies to gain fame.
Under such a trend, the slogan of the thirty years of peace and Liao in the early years of Chongzhen was compressed into three years of peace and Liao. Various "pacification of Liao" and "pacification of Liao" were piled on the emperor's desk.
From the Jiajing to Wanli years, some scholars also began to write their own military books, but the military books at this time were still very valuable.
When I looked at the title of the book, I thought, "The Essentials of the Continuing Martial Arts Classic".
Su Ze suddenly became interested!
"Wu Jing Zong Yao" is a military work compiled by officials in the Northern Song Dynasty. Throughout the Song Dynasty, it was an important military book that guided the officials and troops of the Song Dynasty.
This "Summary of Martial Arts Classics" is not the pirated bookseller's "The New Chapter of Duo Neng Shi Shi" in bookstores, but a serious military book!
This book is a serious art of war book co-authored by Yu Dayou, a famous general in the Ming Dynasty, and his mentor Zhao Benxue!
Su Ze looked at Lin Mojun and asked, "The uncle of a hundred households is named Yu?"
Lin Mojun looked at Su Ze in confusion and asked, "Do you know Yu Shibo?"
Su Ze said sincerely: "I have long admired your great name!"
Lin Mojun was a little confused. He, Yu Shibo, was indeed famous in Fujian, but he was only famous in the health system. Su Ze, a scholar, also knew about it?
Lin Mojun said: "Yu Shibo and my father are old friends, but he was transferred out of Fujian after he passed the martial arts examination. It was only this year that I learned about the death of his father in the war."
Su Ze opened the letter. It was a letter from Yu Dayou to the Lin family, but it was written to Lin Liangjun.
Yu Dayou has been fighting against the Japanese in Zhejiang for the past two years. He only learned about Lin Baihu's death in the battle at the beginning of this year.
He didn't know about Lin Mojun's inheritance, so this letter was written to his old friend's son, Lin Liangjun.
The content of the letter was naturally to encourage Lin Liangjun to practice martial arts and study hard, and to inherit his father's military position and serve the country in the future.
In order to encourage Lin Liangjun, his nephew, Yu Dayou also sent the military book he was writing to Lin Liangjun. It can be said that he had good intentions.
In addition, Yu Dayou also talked about the current situation of Zhejiang's anti-Japanese war.
It was May when I wrote this letter. The Japanese pirates captured Putuo and even invaded Hangzhou, the most prosperous area in Zhejiang Province. Now the court really couldn't sit still.
Even the strict party that controlled the government was under great pressure from Emperor Jiajing and was not allowed to appoint Zhang Jing, a Fuzhou native with rich military experience, as the governor of seven provinces, Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, and Guangdong and Guangxi, to fight against the
Japanese pirates.
Zhang Jing once put down rebellions in Guangxi, Guangdong, Qiongzhou (Hainan) and other places. Although he was a civil servant, he had rich experience in commanding troops.
This veteran minister went to Zhejiang at the age of sixty-three. As soon as he took office, he showed an attitude of working hard to govern. He authorized his subordinates such as Yu Dayou and other generals, and allocated money, food and soldiers to concentrate on fighting the Japanese.
Yu Dayou's letter is full of hope for the future. This Zhang Jinglue really understands military affairs!
Nowadays, there is a game of chess in seven provinces, and with the support of the imperial court's money and food, Yu Dayou even believed in his letter that the Japanese rebellion can be quelled in one or two years!
Su Ze sighed and could only say that Yu Dayou is still too naive now. He understands military affairs but not politics.
This Zhang Jing was a famous anti-Japanese minister, he really knew military skills, and he was deeply loved by his generals.
However, in the historical timeline before Su Ze traveled through time, Zhang Jing, who had made great achievements in pacifying the Japanese in the southeast, was arrested by Emperor Jiajing on May 16, the 34th year of Jiajing. On October 29 of the same year,
, together with Li Tianchong and Yang Jisheng, were executed in Xishi.
It's just that Yu Dayou, who is now full of morale, and Zhang Jing, who has just arrived in Zhejiang to take charge of the Japanese affairs, do not know their future fate. At this time, Zhejiang's war against the Japanese did have the dawn of a counterattack.
Lin Mojun hesitated for a while and said to Su Ze: "Mr. Su, Yu Shibo's fight against the Japanese in Zhejiang is related to the peace of the people of Zhejiang and nine provinces. I want to write to him and teach him the mandarin duck formation and the bird gunman's training method.
, what do you think?"
It turned out to be this.
Su Ze suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Lin Mojun called him here and showed him her family letter. It turned out that he wanted to ask for the training manuals for the Yuanyang Formation and the Bird Gun Team.
Su Ze said before that his art of war came from "Wu Mu's Suicide Note". Although Lin Mojun didn't know why Wu Mu's Suicide Note contained a training manual for gunfire, these were Su Ze's "family" art of war. If he didn't
With Su Ze's consent, she couldn't tell others at will.
Lin Mojun wanted to help Yu Dayou fight against the Japanese, so if he wanted to teach him the training manual of the Mandarin Duck Formation and the Bird Gun Team, he had to get Su Ze's consent first.
Su Ze thought for a while and said: "The imperial court does not have blunderbuss in Zhejiang, but the Japanese have many blunderbuss. The training methods of blunderbuss should not be leaked."
Lin Mojun thought for a while and agreed with Su Ze's statement with a low expression.
Su Ze added: "But the Yuanyang Formation is a powerful weapon for fighting against the Japanese. Hundreds of households can tell Commander Yu exactly how to use the Yuanyang Formation."
Lin Mojun looked at Su Ze in surprise, and she said in surprise: "Is it really possible?"
Su Ze nodded and said: "If Yue Wu and Mu Quan know that his formation is used to fight against Japanese invaders, they will definitely agree with my decision."
"The military is a major matter for the country, and the art of war is also a major matter for the country. It should not be taught lightly, but it should not be cherished and kept in a high cabinet as a secret book."
"The Yuanyang Formation is useful for Japanese warfare. Teaching it to General Yu will definitely kill more Japanese pirates. It will definitely be more useful than hiding in Changning Guard."
Lin Mojun stood up and said, "Thank you, Mr. Su."
Su Ze took the "Summary of the Martial Arts Sutra" and asked, "Lin Baihu, can you give me a look at this military book?"
Lin Mojun said quickly: "Sir, just take it and take a look."
Get a military book.
Su Ze also didn't expect that the little Chang Ningwei would be related to Yu Dayou, but Yu Dayou was also born in a military household in Fujian, so it was normal for him to know the previous Baihu.
As famous anti-Japanese generals, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang both fought in Zhejiang, and they were called Yu Long and Qi Hu by later generations.
I don’t know if Su Ze taught Yu Dayou the Yuanyang Formation in advance, whether it could change the anti-Japanese situation of the Ming Dynasty?
Su Ze quickly shook his head. The collapse of the situation in the southeast had little to do with the war.
After Zhang Jing arrived in Zhejiang, he did a lot of things to prepare the army for war. However, under the arrangement of Emperor Jiajing's balancing act, in the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing, Zhao Wenhua from Yan Song's party was assigned to inspect Zhejiang.
As soon as Zhao Wenhua arrived in Zhejiang, he demanded a bribe of 80,000 taels from Zhang Jing. Naturally, Zhang Jing could not give it. Zhao Wenhua hated Zhang Jing and often wrote bad things about Zhang Jing.
In the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing's reign, Zhang Jing and Yu Dayou won a great victory at Wangjiangjing. Zhao Wenhua took credit for it, and together with Hu Zongxian, he falsely accused Zhang Jing of "losing the opportunity to support the bandits", causing Zhang Jing's death in vain.
He also falsely accused Li Tianchong, the governor of Zhejiang, who was also killed in vain, and Hu Zongxian was recommended as his replacement.
He also discussed the governors Zhou Jun, Yang Yi and others one after another, confounding their merits and crimes, and diluting their military plans. As the Japanese power grew stronger, they responded with defeat for victory.
From then on, Wang Jiangjing had a great victory and killed more than 2,000 Japanese pirates, but the Japanese rebellion in the southeast continued.
Even if Yu Dayou could fight, the upper-level party unity and the corruption of the Jiajing Dynasty would be enough to ruin any military victory.
After understanding this, Su Ze simply put away his thoughts of luck and just read military books every day to train soldiers, or practice calligraphy and imperial examination skills. In his free time, he inspected Changning Wei's water conservancy facilities and newly reclaimed wasteland, and guided the people of Changning Wei in planting.
Potato.
"Water Conservancy", "Farming", "Shooting", and "Imperial Examination" skills have all increased.
The art of war skill has also increased to Lv4,320/400, and the calligraphy skill has also increased to Lv4,60/400.
Literary skills increased to Lv4 and stopped increasing after 20/400. It seems that the second issue of "Surprise" will be released as soon as possible.
After reaching Literature Level 4, Su Ze had some more content from famous articles in his mind, but they were still short stories. Su Ze was also thinking about what content to copy in order to compile the second issue of the newspaper.
This time I went to the city at the end of the month to set up the editorial department of "The Surprise". Except for the first page, the remaining pages will finally be submitted by local readers. Otherwise, Su Ze will brush up his literary skills to Lv4 and it will be done very quickly.
Hollowed out.
Before entering the city at the end of the month, the newly reclaimed land had been measured. Su Ze handed over the field register to his grandfather, handed over the new water conservancy map to the ancestral hall, and awarded the newly reclaimed wasteland to the people who had been working in Changning Wei for a month.
surrendered to the Montenegrin bandits.
These Black Mountain bandits burst into tears of gratitude. They were ordinary people who were carried up the mountain. Those Black Mountain bandits who had killed people and done evil were all escorted to the county town.
After acquiring land, these Black Mountain bandits completely settled down in Changningwei, and they became more motivated to work.
During this period, Sun Dianshi and Beishan Village both sent young men, and Lin Mojun sent a small bannerman to build a new military camp in Changning Wei.
Zhu Qi's Yanding, Xiong Wu's Luohan Jiao, and the Black Mountain bandits who surrendered this time also practiced with these young men during the monthly slack time.
Lin Mojun did not expect these ragtag groups to go into battle to kill the enemy. He only trained them in simple military discipline and some patrol and reconnaissance skills, and only let them serve as reserve and joint defense teams.
After finishing the matter with Changning Guard, at the end of June, Su Ze rode the horse borrowed from Hai Rui and headed for Nanping County.
Unexpectedly, Su Ze saw Yu Zongyuan's familiar face just when he arrived at the gate of the county town.
Su Ze was not shy about his enthusiasm towards this number one angel investor. Before he could go up to say hello, he saw Second Young Master Yu rushing over to him enthusiastically when he saw him.
It turned out that Yu Zongyuan was waiting for him at the city gate.
The second young master was very enthusiastic. He pulled Su Ze and said:
"Brother Su! It's so hard for you to hide this from me!"
Su Ze was confused and only heard Mr. Yu say:
"I didn't expect you to be able to write plays. Do you know how popular "Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Box in Fury" is now? I've been waiting for you at the city gate for half a day, just to beg you for this!"
Drama?
Su Ze then remembered that he had authorized Mr. Tuo Hu to adapt the novel into a Southern opera. Who would have expected that Mr. Tuo Hu would act so quickly?
After listening to Yu Zongyuan's words, Su Ze finally knew the whole story.
He Liangjun is indeed a famous opera master. After he returned to the county town in the middle of the month, he stayed behind closed doors for three days and changed "Du Shiniang's Furious Sinking of the Treasure Box" from a novel to a southern opera.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Tuohu led the family's theater troupe to rehearse. Mr. Tuohu personally taught the opera to the actors and the music score to the musicians, and the play was produced in less than seven days.
The wife of Baizhi County in Nanping loved going to the theater, so she asked Mr. Tuohu to perform the first performance in her back house.
The result was naturally a hit!
The county magistrate was full of praise, and all the dignitaries, gentry and landowners in Nanping County invited Mr. Tuohu's troupe to perform at their homes.
Because the imperial court did not publicly lift the ban on operas, the Zaju Nan operas these days were basically performed at home, and relatives and friends would also be invited to watch the opera at home (see Dream of Red Mansions).
Mr. Tuohu received constant invitations and became the most popular person in the literary and artistic circles of Nanping County.
Yu Zongyuan's mother, Commander Yu's wife, was celebrating her birthday and wanted to invite Mr. Tuohu to perform at home, but Mr. Tuohu refused.
The reason is naturally simple. Because of the incident involving his ancestor, the Yu family has a bad reputation among scholars. Although he is the commander of the third-grade capital, Mr. Tuohu's rejection of him only increased his reputation among scholars.
Nowadays, the elite and the military are humble, but Yan Maoqing was still in the Qing army in Fujian. He suffered huge insults as a commander, but he could only grit his teeth and swallow it.
Mr. Tuohu was out promoting these days. The play was adapted from Su Ze's novel. Yu Zongyuan had an idea and waited at the city gate for Su Ze to enter the city to go to school.
Su Ze frowned and said, "This is not easy to handle."
Yu Zongyuan hurriedly begged: "Brother Su, I also have a filial heart, and I hope you will fulfill it!"
Looking at his number one angel investor, Su Ze said: "Let me think of another way."
