Yan Fei has long been accustomed to sudden gatherings and missions.
About eight thousand cavalrymen were gathered, plus at least one retinue. Not only were the horses neighing constantly at the gathering place, but they also looked like a large, dark mass of people.
Yan Fei, who had experienced the same thing more than once, still felt excited and eager to do something to relieve his increasingly obvious restlessness.
A "woo woo woo" horn sound was blown.
There were people who had received relevant training. They actively adjusted their positions and held the reins of the war horses with their own hands. They stood on one side of the horse and waited for further orders.
For those who participated in such a scene for the first time, they would adjust their positions under the shouts of the officers of their own unit. If they were too stupid, they would be kicked a few times.
Yan Fei saw Zhi Xuwu again and knew that it was time to encourage him before the war.
Sure enough, Zhi Xuwu rode back and forth on horseback, shouting loudly to the soldiers who were about to go into battle.
In fact, the propagation range of a person's voice is very limited. Most people can't hear what is being shouted at all. They can only spread it back layer by layer according to the original words, trying to make most people know where Zhi Xuwu is.
say what.
What Zhi Xuwu was shouting was how many Zhao's men were found at a certain location, hoping that those who were about to go to war would go there and bring death and misery to Zhao's people.
There is no need for Zhi Xuwu to tell everyone how many generations there are, how many supplies they carry, and other information. He will tell it to the officers who are qualified to know it at a special meeting. At the same time, the tactical arrangements will be made.
Classes will also be explained clearly.
Yan Fei listened for a while and saw the confusion on the other people's faces, and couldn't help but feel grateful to Zhishi for educating him in literacy.
For those same words, is there any cultural gap that will be reflected in the gap in understanding?
From what Yan Fei heard, their mission this time was to intercept a certain tribe of the Zhao family who was migrating, and they mainly focused on killing people, leaving nothing else to worry about.
"It seems that my farmland and pastures are going to increase again!" Yan Fei didn't just like killing people. He simply regarded the enemy's heads as military merit.
Military merit in the Zhi family is equal to land, population and wealth. Unfortunately, Zhiyao has not yet confirmed the formulation of the relevant titles.
The military merit title system is a great weapon, but it is a pity that Zhiyao is not qualified to use it for the time being.
At the current time point, only the Emperor of Zhou can establish the title system in a fair and just manner.
The rest of the princes can naturally create titles, but to do so requires strong enough strength, such as the Chu State rebelling from the Zhou royal family system.
The struggle for hegemony between Jin and Chu is actually a competition between two civilizations. Once Chu finally wins, the throne of Emperor Zhou will naturally be overthrown and replaced by the King of Chu, who will become the co-owner of the world. Many systems will inevitably
To face changes.
So far, Chu State still does not recognize it as a member of the Zhou royal family system. They pursue their own values and have their own official and title system.
Did the State of Chu follow the Yin and Shang system? Looking at the official positions, it is obviously not the case.
It was the Song State that followed the Yin and Shang route, and the governor was called "Shi", and was divided into the left division and the right division, that is, the left and right prime ministers; the governor of the Chu State was called Ling Yin, and the marshal in the early days was called Ruo Ao, but later it was changed from Ruo Ao to Sima.
Later, Sima's authority was infinitely reduced; Sima, the Central Plains countries, was the military judge. This was one of the reasons why Chu State wanted to reduce Sima's authority.
Zhiyao is now unable to promulgate his own title system. If he dares to act like this, he will write "I want to rebel" on his forehead for reading.
Therefore, under the premise that the Zhi family cannot promulgate the military merit title system created by themselves, they can only play according to the old system of the Zhou royal family. After meritorious service, the titles of corporal, sergeant, and staff sergeant will be appointed based on the merit, and the title will be senior doctor.
Don't think it's strange to have corporal, sergeant, and staff sergeant. In fact, Zhu Xia had these titles in the Spring and Autumn Period. Modern translations of the Western military system also have corporal, sergeant, and staff sergeant. However, it is just a translation. With the public,
The translations of Hou, Bo, Zi and Nan are the same. The application of distinguishing ranks does not mean that a certain syllable must be a certain word.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, a corporal was the leader of a troop; a sergeant, also called "two Sima", could manage a chariot crew and twenty-two infantrymen; a sergeant was the "pawn leader" of a "pawn", commanding four chariots.
Chariot crew and eighty-eight infantrymen.
At the level of a doctor, they are divided into lower doctor, middle doctor, upper doctor and titled doctor. Lower, middle and upper are actually military ranks and have their own power to form troops. Titled doctor is a titled noble who owns a city.
In the future, if Zhiyao wants to obtain military merit, he must not use the titles formulated by Shang Yang in the Qin State. The reason is that the concubine and the like are unique to the Qin State, and the Ling Yin is also a unique official position of the Chu State. The other countries in the Central Plains do not have those titles.
.
So, when Zhiyao formulates military titles, he either comes up with a name that suits the characteristics of the Jin Kingdom, or he just uses corporal, sergeant, staff sergeant, lower doctor, middle doctor, upper doctor... and then he will lose his brain cells later.
If you choose a name slowly, you can also choose birds to name official positions like the Xia Hou family, etc., etc. to come up with your own style.
If he really did what Qin or Chu did in Jin, it would be a trivial matter to make a joke. The world should think that Zhiyao has betrayed his ancestors and forgotten his ancestors.
Here we must understand one thing. If time travel happens, we will come to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. You are the protagonist and have created your own great cause. Remember not to make a fuss about the military merits established by Shang Yang's reforms outside Qin or Chu.
If you use the official title system of the state of Jin, Qi, Zheng, etc., or directly apply it to the states of Zhao, Wei, and South Korea, your subordinates will think that you are denying your own civilization.
To commit the most shameless betrayal.
When will Zhiyao come up with its own military merit system? At least after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
At present, although Zhi Xuwu does not know what the ultimate intention of what he is doing is, he is very conscientious in completing the tasks he has been given.
People like Yan Fei don't need to know more. They should follow orders and go to a certain place to kill or capture people who are not in the same camp as themselves in exchange for military merits that can be rewarded. This is what they should do.
Like now, after two days of marching, Yan Fei heard the horn sound of preparing to charge, drew his saber, and looked ahead.
In front of them, the members of the Zhao family who noticed the appearance of the Zhi family's cavalry were already panicking. Their remaining choices were to abandon their men and supplies and flee, or to quickly organize a resistance.
When Gubuziqing saw that there were more than 20,000 Zhishi cavalry coming, he felt that his tired heart became even more depressed, and shouted loudly: "Escape for your lives each!"
Of course, Zhi's cavalry was not as many as 20,000. In fact, it was the number of cavalry plus retinue.
The Zhao soldiers who were still willing to resist were first stunned when they heard Gubu Ziqing shouting, and then they ran away for their lives.
The escorted people saw Zhao's soldiers scattered in all directions without any unified action, so they became chaotic.
Gubuziqing saw a generation of people approaching him with malicious intentions, and felt no fear. He felt that relief was coming today.
What's going on?
Not everyone wants to stay away from the Central Plains. Even if they die, they want to die in their hometown.
Leaving Jin and coming to Dai was already the limit that Gu Buziqing could accept. He learned that Zhao Guanshe didn’t even want to stay in Dai and wanted to take as many people as possible to move north. He didn’t know when he could return to the Central Plains. Like Gu Buziqing,
An older person like Bu Ziqing could not object, and felt extremely sad that he would never be able to return to his homeland in this life, and that he would be buried in a completely unfamiliar place after his death.
This time, Gubu Ziqing was responsible for leading more than 4,000 Zhao soldiers to escort more than 20,000 generations and a batch of supplies to the north. It was okay if he was not attacked. If there were too few enemy troops, he would resist. Seeing the Zhi family
When the cavalry showed up, there were more than 20,000 of them. Knowing that it would make no difference whether they could resist or not, they ordered them to disperse.
The resistance will definitely be annihilated, and some people may escape in all directions. Gubu Ziqing believes that there is nothing wrong with his order.
"It's better to die here, which is a little far away from Jin. It's better than to go farther north and further away from Jin." Gubu Ziqing drew out his sword. He thought that dying would not mean being killed easily without resistance at all. It would be appropriate to die while resisting.
The values of the Central Plains aristocracy.
Those who were surrounding Gubu Ziqing saw Gubu Ziqing drawing his sword in a fighting posture. They stopped and looked at each other, choosing to surround Gubu Ziqing from a distance without making any next move.
"Dai Ren? You are barbaric and weak. Even if you don't use dirty methods to trap Dai Jun, with the scale of Zhao's 30,000-strong army, you can still complete the destruction of the country." Gubu Ziqing was actually following Zhao Wuxie from behind.
His ideas often conflicted, and he gradually faded out of Zhao's core management.
Yan Fei's cavalry team did not get the task of chasing Zhao's defeated troops, and came straight in the direction of Gubu Ziqing.
"Big fish? It looks like a big fish! Thanks to the eldest son for his blessing, Fei Fei was able to achieve such a feat!" Yan Fei was one of the people who worshiped the Zhiyao wood carving. He stared at Gubu Ziqing holding a sharp knife, relying on
With his excellent eyesight, he could tell that Gubu Ziqing was extraordinary from his clothes.
The cavalrymen in the same team, as they got closer and closer, they also recognized the difference between Gubu Ziqing and others.
Others, whether they are Zhao people or Dai people, will inevitably have some traces of barbarism in their clothes. Dudugu Bu Ziqing maintains the Central Plains dressing style.
Among a large group of people, one's unique style is the shining point. Coupled with the temperament that Gubu Ziqing has cultivated over decades, it is really difficult for people to ignore it.
Yan Fei kept issuing instructions, mainly to remind his fellow cavalry not to kill the wrong person. A big fish alive is more valuable than a salted fish pickled after death.
"Where's the jade I used to play with?" Yan Fei was really literate and was lucky enough to learn from his colleagues how to capture nobles.
The rumble of horse hooves swept across.
Zhao's troops scattered, and Zhi's cavalry detachments pursued them.
There were many people at the scene, and Zhishi also had no intention of letting him go. Anyway, he just wanted to surrender without killing him.
Yan Fei was galloping in front of Gubu Ziqing. He started to slow down when he was a hundred meters away, and he stopped completely when he was nearly three meters away.
"Come on!" Yan Fei got off his horse, pulled off the pendant around his neck with a look of ecstasy, ran over and asked his aunt Bu Ziqing with a shy face, "I wonder if you would be honored to be invited to my home?"
Gubu Ziqing looked at the piece of jade that was not of good quality but looked very smooth, and then glanced at Yan Fei who couldn't hide his ecstasy. He hesitated whether to attack with a sword and then be hacked to death, or...
