I opened the window and let the biting cold wind blow on my face, as if the biting pain could relieve the pain in my heart.
The theory of the Four Symbols originated from SWOT analysis, and this SWOT method was what Le Lingshan told me. During the conversation with Li Tingzhi, the theory of the Four Symbols played a great role. But it also brought my thoughts back to
When I came to Le Lingshan, those sweet scenes seemed to be just yesterday, and they were still so clear.
The three years I spent with Hisugi were the happiest time in my life, but Hisugi's departure made me miserable. I don't know how long this pain will last, maybe for the rest of my life.
Although more than a month has passed, and although time and space have disappeared, my yearning for Hissugi has not weakened at all.
"The officials, Wen Zhang and others have arrived at the imperial study. Please go and review the training manual for the young guards."
"Oh, where's Mr. Li? He's here too?"
"The officials are all here."
"Okay, let's go."
As soon as I entered the room, I said to Wen Zhang: "Wen Zhang, this is Mr. Li Li Tingzhi, the envoy of Yangzhou. He studied under Marshal Meng Gong and Meng Meng. He is one of the few famous generals in our dynasty. You must ask Mr. Li for advice.
.”
"I know that I have learned a lot from Mr. Li on the way here. Your Majesty, this is the military training outline written by me. Please review it."
I took the manual and said with a smile: "Wen Zhang, you look very energetic in this commander's uniform."
Wen Zhang was a childish young man. When he saw my compliments, he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Wen Zhang, the commander of the young guard, comes to see the emperor. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."
"Third brother, don't be rude." Wen Tianxiang quickly stopped him.
Wen Zhang had been afraid of this elder brother since he was a child, so he made a face and sat aside.
"Haha, Song Rui doesn't have to be so serious. Wen Zhang is not as good as Wen Zhang, so that's why his character is the same."
I read the training outline and said, "Xiangfu, what do you think?"
"Back to Your Majesty, although Commander Wen is not very old, he is extremely talented. This training outline refers to the training methods of our imperial army, but it also has many innovations. I think it is feasible."
"Song Rui, Jun Shi, what do you think?"
"I think it's feasible."
I nodded and said: "I would like to make some suggestions. Since the Youth Guard is a new army, there should be some differences in training. I will add two points. I also said to Xiangfu yesterday that an invincible elite army needs ideological construction and
Capacity building should be carried out together. Young guards are all intimidated teenagers whose ideology has not yet been formed. Therefore, I suggest adding an hour of cultural lectures every day so that all young guards can learn to read and write, learn how to behave, and understand how to protect their families.
In order to defend the country, I don’t want to see that our new army is a group of illiterate people who only know how to fight. Secondly, you Wen Zhang is very strong in martial arts, so I don’t have to question the individual combat capabilities of the young guards in the future, but I
I hope that when you train their personal abilities, you can add the art of combined attack. This can enhance the team spirit, and secondly, it can increase their feelings. If the young guards go into war in the future, the effect of teamwork will be far greater.
Far greater than the effect of individual soldiers being dispersed."
Li Tingzhi took over the topic and said: "Your Majesty's words are true. There are thousands of troops on the battlefield. No matter how good one person is in martial arts, he cannot withstand a chaotic battle with many people."
Wen Zhang said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice, Master Li. I will add these two points to it."
"In the process of military training, many unexpected things will happen. Regarding this military training outline, Wen Zhang, you need to constantly make corrections in actual operations. There is no perfect military training outline in the world that can satisfy all troops. Only
The method that works best for your own troops is the best."
"The most applicable is the best." Lu Xiufu said to himself, "Your Majesty, this statement makes sense."
"Wen Zhang will keep your Majesty's words in mind. Your Majesty, I have one more thing to ask of you."
"Say it."
"Your Majesty, I hope that your Majesty can allocate five hundred war horses to the Young Guards."
"Do you all want to be cavalry?"
"Your Majesty, that's right."
"You all know that horses are always scarce in our court, and I cannot produce five hundred. When you are training your riding skills, you can first borrow them from the imperial guards. When you go to the battlefield one day, you can snatch them from the Mongols yourself.
That’s it. Wen Zhang, have all the young guards been recruited?”
"Your Majesty, after the test, a total of 713 qualified people were found. Among them, the first 500 were admitted to the official establishment of the Youth Guard, and the other 193 were admitted to the reserve team. Twenty qualified candidates were unwilling to enter the reserve team automatically.
Leave. The reserve team members and regular team members will be trained in the same way, and a new test will be conducted after three months of training to allow them to compete for positions."
"Competition for employment?" Li Tingzhi asked blankly.
"You don't know, your Majesty also invented this word." Wen Zhang said with a smile, and then told Li Tingzhi the general meaning.
"Your Majesty, if you introduce this mechanism to the Youth Guard, you will be able to greatly stimulate the potential of these young people."
"I will use the Youth Guard as an experiment first. If it works, I will slowly promote it to all ministries in the DPRK and the Central Government. Let capable ministers come up. If you don't have the ability, don't occupy their positions for a long time."
"Yes, I also think this method is feasible."
"Xiangfu, it's just that the time is not yet ripe. I have to wait until I can fully grasp the principles of the court before I can implement it. You also know the so-called separation of the three powers in the court. If I want to govern the principles of the court, I must first break this situation and take back the so-called "three powers".
At present, the biggest resistance comes from Jia Sidao, who represents the prime minister. Most of the main generals in the imperial army, Xiang army, and border army of our dynasty are Jia Sidao's people, so I
When we take back military power, we will inevitably conflict with Jia Sidao, but this is also an urgent matter, otherwise it will be too late by the time the Mongols come over."
"Your Majesty, if you need me, please give me orders. I, the officers and soldiers of Yangzhou City, swear to be loyal to the emperor to the death."
"Xiangfu, I know your loyalty. Yangzhou City is the front line of Song and Mongolia. You should guard it for me. A few days ago, I discussed this military power with Junshi and Song Rui, and planned to start with the Xiang Army to find out
The generals who are loyal to our dynasty will divide Jia Sidao's strength, while secretly training the new army, and finally attack the border army and the forbidden army. I plan to use up to a year to resolve this matter."
"I believe in your Majesty's ability."
"Xiangfu, you can go back and train your troops. If possible, you can expand the army and gradually expand the defensive area to the west."
"I would like to obey your Majesty's will. I will return to Yangzhou tomorrow. I have learned a lot in the past two days and am deeply impressed by your Majesty's views. I have one more question I would like to ask your Majesty."
"Speak out and listen."
"The previous dynasties of the Han and Tang Dynasties attached great importance to martial arts in order to defeat the surrounding foreign races. However, our dynasty has always adhered to the code of conduct of emphasizing civility over military affairs and using civil servants to control military generals. Is this the main reason for the passive situation of our dynasty today?
"
"Song Rui and Junshi must have the same view on this issue, right?"
"Indeed." Wen and Lu said in unison.
"I have said before when talking about military training methods that what is applicable is the best. This is also applicable to a country's policies. During the Han and Tang Dynasties in the previous dynasties, the people's customs were strong and the combat effectiveness of the army was higher than that of our dynasty.
Strong, it can intimidate the surrounding ethnic groups and make them come to pay tribute one after another. The problem of foreign aggression has been solved. However, the internal worries of the Han and Tang Dynasties continued. From time to time, local separatism and feudal kings rebelled, which caused problems to the country.
Huge losses, which basically did not occur in our dynasty. I wonder if you have thought about it? During the Han and Tang Dynasties, most of the surrounding ethnic groups were alliances, while what our dynasty faced was based on the state.
Liao, Jin, Mongolia, etc., whose nature appears, are naturally stronger than those coalitions. Of course, I am not looking for excuses for our country's external defeat. Can you tell anything from these phenomena? "
