Chapter 179: On the Importance of Military Documentaries
Three days later, at the court meeting, the appointment of the prefect of the palace was announced. The whole court was shocked for a while. The Queen Mother Cao behind the curtain did not express any objection to this, indicating that the Queen Mother Cao acquiesced in the matter.
All civil and military officials know what this means.
The power of the Song Dynasty has been quietly handed over, Zhao Zongquan has become a veritable master of the Song Dynasty, and the Queen Mother's faction is gradually withdrawing from the stage of history.
On the way back from the next court, Qin Hao was surrounded by a bunch of congratulatory noble generals. Some of them were simply forming a good relationship, while others were people in the family who wanted to ask Qin Hao to help him find a good future through connections.
Qin Hao, on the other hand, had a smile on his face, but he vaguely said that he had just received the appointment and did not understand the situation of the front minister yet. He needed to get familiar with it before making a decision.
However, the news spread quickly, and the gate of Jinghaihou Mansion was lined up with people who came to give gifts. These people were so impatient that they did not even look for an excuse to give gifts, for fear that they would be late. Good position
It was snatched away.
Yu Yanran handed the list of gifts to Qin Hao and said with some worry: "Ms. sir, the officials asked you to reorganize the front office of the palace. Let's accept everything according to the order, just in case the officials..."
Qin Hao smiled and patted Yu Yanran's hand: "If I pick it up and accept it, wouldn't I be making enemies for myself? Keep all the gifts on the gift list and wait a few days to send them back in the name of return gifts. They will naturally understand me.
That’s what it means.”
"My husband still has a way."
"You want to say that I am a chicken thief, right?"
Yu Yanran smiled and said: "I don't have any, husband, please don't accuse me unjustly."
Qin Hao saw Yu Yanran's charming appearance. If she hadn't been pregnant, he would have taken her down right now.
Yu Yanran burst out laughing suddenly and pushed Qin Hao out of the door: "Husband, you'd better go to Jade and Qingmei's place to spend the night. I can't serve you now."
After saying that, he closed the door directly. Qin Hao felt helpless. Was he forced to be a scumbag?
Turning around, Qin Haomao came to the front office before the o'clock. He had said hello before that at o'clock today, except for those who were seriously ill and bedridden, everyone else would be here.
The reason why he didn't carry out a surprise attack was to prevent others from saying that he was going to kill him without teaching him. His words had already been released. If anyone dared to commit crimes against others, they would be seeking death. I can't blame him.
Qin Hao sat in the main seat of the main hall of the Si Yamen in front of the palace, and everyone stood silently under his hands. Qin Hao looked at Yuan Wenshao aside and signaled that it was time to start.
Yuan Wenshao held up the roster of the Palace Chief with some excitement. Although his position had not changed, Qin Hao transferred him here on the first day he took office. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was going to be lucky.
"The deputy director of the front office inspects: Li Jingtai."
"arrive!"
"Commander of the Department in Front of the Palace: Yang Bin."
"arrive."
He read the names one by one very smoothly. Yuan Wenshao also looked at everyone present to avoid anyone pretending to be someone else. After working in the front office for so many years, Yuan Wenshao may not be good at other things, but he is still familiar with heads.
"The four directions are all in danger: Zhou Zheng."
For a long time, no one responded. Everyone present looked at each other, and many people had an expression in their eyes as if they had seen something good.
Qin Hao smiled innocently and asked, "Is the Sizhi Lord Yuhou suffering from a serious illness and bedridden?"
The deputy chief of the front department inspected Li Jingtai and reported back: "Sir, I have never seen Zhou Zheng's leave application."
Qin Hao nodded: "Then send someone to Zhou Zheng's house to ask. If he suddenly becomes seriously ill, don't accuse him unjustly. If he is not seriously ill, he will be brought here even if he is not seriously ill!"
"No." Two soldiers took the order and went.
"Continue." Qin Hao calmly took a sip of tea and said to Yuan Wenshao.
Yuan Wenshao continued to roll the roll, and everything went smoothly. Even those who were injured or lame came. Qin Hao asked these people to take leave and go back to recuperate on the spot.
Not long after, two soldiers carried a middle-aged man smelling of alcohol to the Si Yamen in front of the palace.
Qin Hao was very happy: "It seems that our Du Yuhou is not seriously ill, so I can rest assured."
Everyone present could not help but shudder. This inaction was more terrifying than a violent rage, just like the calm before the storm.
"Someone, let us, Marquis Du Yu, wake up."
A basin of cold water was poured directly on Zhou Zheng's face. Zhou Zheng was startled, jumped up in a daze, and immediately cursed.
"Which bastard dares to tease me?"
Qin Hao sneered: "Marquis Du Yu is so majestic."
Zhou Zheng, who hadn't fully woken up yet, shook his head and looked around: "Hey, aren't I in Yicui Building?"
"It turns out that he is not suffering from a serious illness, but that he is sleeping with a prostitute. The life Marquis Du Yu is living is really enviable." After Qin Hao finished speaking, he slapped the table and shouted.
"Come here, drag me out and beat me with thirty military sticks. From now on, I will be a city gate guard. If you leave your post without permission, military law will be enforced!"
Zhou Zheng woke up only after being held up, and quickly knelt down and begged for mercy: "Sir, please be merciful, I am the nephew-in-law of Duke Cheng..."
"Are you trying to use Duke Cheng to oppress me? Do you know that I am following the official's order to rectify the front office of the palace. Do you think the official's order is more important, or the face of Duke Cheng is more important?" Qin Haoleng
With a snort and a wave of his hand, Zhou Zheng was dragged away.
Soon, Zhou Zheng's screams were heard, and everyone present was shocked. Zhou Zheng's backstage was very tough, but Qin Hao dealt with it without any hesitation. It seemed that he would have to keep his tail between his legs in the future.
Qin Hao stood up, walked in front of everyone, and said loudly: "I know that many of you have backstage, but since I have accepted the official order, I can only handle official business. From now on, in front of the palace,
The general will implement military regulations. Those who are not on duty will go out for drills every day. Those who are absent without reason will be given twenty sticks, demoted one rank, and dismissed."
This news caused a huge shock not only in the Dianqian Division, but also in the entire Forbidden Army. Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, most of the Forbidden Army were just decorations. Only when the border troops changed defenses would there be a chance to fight, so for training
He has always been lazy.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Not to mention exercising every day, you can’t even practice once every five days.
The situation in the Dianqian Division is slightly better. The fighting capabilities of the Japanese Army, Tianwu Army, Dragon Guard Army, and Divine Guard Army are quite good, but the rest are also neglected in training.
This is also the reason why King Yan was able to rebel and take control of the imperial city.
"Hey, how can I stand this daily practice? How about we find some connections and transfer him out of the palace department?"
"It's all this idiot Zhou Zheng's fault. Marquis Jinghai notified us in advance of the first day of the night, but he even hit the muzzle of the gun, causing us all to suffer."
The news reached Zhao Zongquan's ears, and he became even more satisfied with Qin Hao: "Haha, I knew that Marquis Jinghai was a person who could be entrusted with important tasks."
Of course, there were also those who had a sense of luck, but they soon discovered that they were wrong, and they were very wrong.
Turning around, Qin Hao had been waiting for them at the Forbidden Army's martial arts field early in the morning. There were almost 70,000 soldiers and horses in charge of the Palace Front Division. It was quite shocking to spread out in the martial arts field. This was also Qin Hao's first time.
Command so many soldiers.
"Let's practice!" Qin Hao said to Yuan Wenshao.
Yuan Wenshao took the token and handed it to all the troops, and suddenly the whole martial arts field was filled with people.
The armies practiced for a while, and Qin Hao shook his head. Even the Peng Japanese Army, Tianwu Army, Dragon Guard Army, and Divine Guard Army, known as the top four armies, performed unsatisfactory. As for the others, they were even more miserable. One
A person who looks weak.
"Stop!" Qin Hao gave an order, and the smoke and dust from the martial arts arena dispersed. The soldiers all looked at the ordering platform in confusion, and many people whispered.
"What's going on? It's stopped?"
"Can we go back to sleep?"
Facts have proved that they thought too much. Qin Hao summoned all the military commanders and handed them a pamphlet to circulate.
This booklet is a set of training guidelines compiled by Qin Hao based on some cold weapon documentaries and some modern military training documentaries he has watched.
From formations to soldiers' training methods for strength, endurance, and balance, to more complex formations, and the cooperation of small-scale teams, it is all covered.
At first, the military commanders did not pay much attention to Qin Hao's booklet, but the further they read, the more surprised they became.
"Master Hou, can you really give us this booklet?" Liang Chengwu, the leader of the Tianwu Army, asked cautiously.
In ancient times, each Xungui family had its own unique military training methods, which was also the key to the Xungui family's long-term prosperity. For these military training methods, the Xungui family regarded these military training methods as top secrets and passed them down orally, and generally only the heirs had them.
Qualification study.
Liang Chengwu's own family had a similar military training method, and he knew very well how precious such a military training method was.
Of course, in their eyes, the extremely precious military training method, in Qin Hao's view, was just a semi-finished product written by himself, and it was no big deal if it spread.
"We are pressed for time today, so let's practice lining up first."
"promise!"
Soon, the generals of each army returned to their respective teams and conducted formation drills. To their surprise, the seemingly simple formation turned out to be much more troublesome than they imagined.
First of all, the soldiers under your command do not know the difference between left and right. You give the order to turn left, but many of them turn right, and some of them directly turn themselves and fall.
After finally waiting for the soldiers to distinguish their left and right, the whole morning passed. As a result, when they waited until the afternoon to train in formation again, many people forgot their left and right again.
Qin Hao had no better way to deal with this. Being a soldier these days was a low-level profession, and the soldiers were basically illiterate. He could only let them continue to practice and form muscle memory.
For three days in a row, they were doing basic formation drills. However, after three days, the effect was obvious. Not only did the soldiers assemble much faster than before, but various turns, maintaining formations and other actions also made great progress.
.
This also caused the pamphlet written by Qin Hao to become so popular among officers at all levels in the Palace Front Department that even other generals of the Forbidden Army came to ask for it.
But no one wanted to spread this kind of military training method. As a result, the pamphlet became more and more famous, and even the British prince wanted to borrow it when he went to court.
Naturally, Qin Hao would not be stingy, but after flipping through a few pages, the British duke was shocked and quickly returned the book to Qin Hao.
"How could Marquis Jinghai reveal such a secret technique so easily? The young man was too abrupt."
Qin Hao smiled and said: "The British public statement is serious, but they are just some basic military training methods. They were compiled indiscriminately in one's spare time. They cannot be called secret methods."
The British Duke looked at Qin Hao in shock: "Did Marquis Jinghai compile this book himself?"
"Also, I borrowed some military books and tactics..." Qin Hao still felt a little guilty about plagiarism.
The British Duke was very impressed: "He is really a genius. If he trains troops according to this method, he will be able to train a strong army in less than three years."
Qin Hao shook his head and said: "A strong army is not made by training, but by fighting. No matter how well you train, on the battlefield of Liao and Song Dynasties, the Liao army can overwhelm the so-called strong army with a single charge."
When two armies meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. When two armies are fighting, when the disparity in strength is not too great, the side with high morale will be more likely to win.
In recent years, the Song Army has basically never won against the Liao Army. According to rumors, the Liao Army has been described as a monster that can defeat a hundred. In this environment, the Song Army has been burdened with huge losses before even entering the battlefield.
The psychological pressure, coupled with the blind command of a group of civil servants who don't know how to fight, will make it impossible to lose.
The British Duke's face also became a little ugly, and he sighed: "Yes, we have to rely on fighting! I, the Song Dynasty, really need a victory."
Just after the British Duke left, when Qin Hao was about to go home, a eunuch came to him and saluted: "Master Marquis, the official family has invited you."
Qin Hao came to a side hall with doubts. In addition to Zhao Zongquan, there was also Zhao Yingce in the side hall.
Zhao Zongquan smiled and said to Qin Hao: "I heard that Qin Aiqing compiled a new secret book on military training. I and King Huan also benefited a lot after reading it."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qin Hao was not too surprised. Zhao Zongquan was the emperor, and Bianjing was the territory of the Imperial City Division. It was naturally easy to know any news.
"It's just made up at random, and many of them need to be verified before we can determine whether they work."
Zhao Zongquan waved his hand: "Qin Aiqing doesn't have to be humble. Your book has caused quite a stir among the noble generals. Their vision is always right, right?"
After a few more pleasantries, Zhao Zongquan finally revealed his true purpose. In fact, he wanted to hold a military parade and show it off in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.
Qin Hao's heart moved. Could it be that Zhao Zongquan was preparing to go to war with the Liao Kingdom?
"How about setting it on the first day of next month?"
Zhao Zongquan was slightly startled when he heard this: "Is the time too tight?"
This was because he was worried that if he didn't have enough time to train, he would make a fool of himself during the military parade, which would affect his image of martial arts and martial arts. Qin Hao said seriously: "If it's just a military parade, it's enough to handle it."
"Okay, then on the first day of next month, Qin Aiqing is indeed a pillar of talent. It takes only half a month to take over as the front minister and turn him into a new person. It is not easy." Zhao Zongquan did not hesitate to praise him at all. It can be seen that he is serious.
very happy.
When he succeeded to the throne, considering the complicated situation in the court, he had been prepared to pave the way for his son throughout his life. Unexpectedly, in just five years, he had already cleared most of the obstacles.
This also gave him the idea of a Northern Expedition to regain the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. As the emperor of the Song Dynasty, the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun had become a close enemy. The capital of the Song Dynasty had no danger to defend except the Yellow River. The Liao army
The cavalry could threaten Bianjing at any time. Every time he thought of this, Zhao Zongquan could not sleep or eat well.
If he can recapture the Yanyun Sixteen States, not only will his throne be secure, but he will also leave a mark in the history books in the future.
Finishing the world affairs of the king and winning fame both before and after life. Throughout the ages, even if you are honored as a king, it is nothing more than these pursuits.
After coming out of the side hall, King Huan Zhao Yingce praised Qin Hao and said: "Zihan is indeed a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. I also read the book he compiled. I really can't put it down. I wish I could practice it myself."
Qin Hao cupped his hands and said with a smile: "If His Highness King Huan keeps saying this, I will float to the sky."
"Haha~~~" Zhao Yingce laughed, and then said sternly: "This military parade needs to be foolproof, please Zihan for your troubles."
"Don't dare to neglect your responsibilities."
Zhao Yingce patted Qin Hao on the shoulder, and then the two left side by side.
In the next twenty days or so, Qin Hao focused on having the soldiers of the Palace Front Department practice various formation changes and the square step march. These projects were quick and effective.
I heard that the officials would inspect the military parade together with the civil and military officials, and the morale of the soldiers was also high. For ordinary soldiers, being able to see the officials is definitely something that can last a lifetime.
As for the military generals, they naturally worked hard and wanted to perform well in front of the officials. Maybe they would fall into the eyes of the officials?
The Ministry of Rites had to make arrangements for the military parade. Naturally, this matter could not be hidden. Soon, word spread in Bianjing that the Song Dynasty had been prosperous for many years, but its military force had been weak. Not to mention the Liao Kingdom, even the Xixia Kingdom, which had always been barren
He also often pushed Da Song to the ground and rubbed him, which was really shameful.
Officials in the past dynasties rarely held such military parades, and the common people's view of soldiers was that they were weak, useless, and scoundrels, with basically no positive impression.
After the news of this military parade spread, it immediately aroused a lot of discussion among ordinary people.
"What's so good about these soldiers of the Song Dynasty? They have never won a battle, so they still have the nerve to parade?"
"That's right, isn't it embarrassing enough?"
These words naturally reached the ears of the soldiers. For a time, the morale of the soldiers in the martial arts field was low. Qin Hao saw this and ordered.
"Beat the drum."
The soldiers quickly gathered in front of the commander's platform, and they were all gathered in just five minutes. The drills these days were not in vain.
Qin Hao said loudly: "I believe you have heard the rumors from the outside world. Is it embarrassing? It's embarrassing, it's so embarrassing!"
"Is it possible to blame those people? No, because what they said is the truth."
"Look up! Look at what you are like now. Not to mention that the people look down on you, even you yourself look down on yourselves, right?"
The soldiers slowly raised their heads, with a look of shame on their faces.
Qin Hao shouted loudly: "Are you planning to be looked down upon by the people and yourself all your life?"
"No!"
"I can not hear!"
The soldiers shouted at the top of their lungs: "No!"
Qin Hao nodded: "Now there is an opportunity in front of you. On the first day of next month, those who come to watch the military parade are not only the officials and civil and military officials, but also the common people. Can you prove that you are not a wimp with your performance during the military parade?"
, it’s up to you to be worthy of the people’s support.”
"What are you still standing there for? Give me some training!" Liang Chengwu, the leader of the Tianwu Army, shouted.
"promise!!!"
The generals of the Japanese army and other armies did not show any signs of weakness, and each led their troops to rush towards the martial arts field with roars.
Yuan Wenshao watched this scene and couldn't help but secretly admire that Qin Hao not only restored the low morale with just a few words, but also made the soldiers feel like they had been given a shot of chicken blood. For military generals, such infectious power can sometimes be
It is more important than the ability to charge into battle.
