Chapter 583: I respectfully ask the emperor to review the Ming Navy
This question has been considered by Father-in-law Wei.
Pulling people to develop the downline, using family affection, nostalgia, and friendship to unite the army, is definitely beneficial to the initial stage of Wei Gonggong's entrepreneurship.
First, it's easy to recruit.
Second, there is great strength in unity.
Needless to say, it is easy to recruit people, unity refers to the fact that it comes out of one place, and it is unbearable to go to the battlefield, and it will not be saved without help. There are so many people who are going to die, and if you can't say it, you will go up and fight with red eyes.
Comparing his heart to his heart, his father-in-law Wei wants to be a soldier with his brother-in-law and eldest brother, and when he sees his eldest brother and brother-in-law surrounded by enemy troops, can he run away?
The congenital cohesion of the army organized in this way is stronger than that of the ordinary army.
I am afraid that this will still be the Tianxiong Army trained by Lu Xiangsheng, the prime minister of the five provinces, and the Hunan Army that once shaved his head and practiced, they are all such an army.
Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army can be included in the top three of the Ming army in the Chongzhen Dynasty, and the other two are the Guanning army trained by Sun Chengzong, and Hong Chengchou's Hong soldiers.
In terms of combat effectiveness, whether it was the Tianxiong Army, the Guanning Army, or the Hong Army, they all beat the rest of the Ming army. Unfortunately, in the end, they were all defeated by the slavery of the Manchurian Eight Banners.
However, the defeat was not purely military, but political.
From the very beginning, Gonggong Wei was going to follow the path of Lu and Zeng to train soldiers.
However, if it continues to develop, it will re-follow the old path of the Hunan army.
At that time, all the camps and battalions will have their own systems, nominally obeying his father-in-law Wei, but in fact, they will play their own games. His father-in-law Wei worked hard to the end, just like Zeng shaved his head, that is, he put on a name.
After breaking Tianjing, why didn't Zeng shave his head and dare to rebel, and the yellow robe was added to his body, creating his rebellion against his aunt?
It's not because of Zuo Li's containment, not because of loyalty, righteousness, benevolence and filial piety, and not because Uncle Yang disagrees, but because he once shaved his head and the Hunan army tigers and wolves under him are actually in their own systems, and they can't really give many orders.
The struggle within the Hunan army can be seen from the case of the horse to see that there is a big problem.
There is a lesson from shaving his head, can Grandpa Wei learn from it?
At the moment, he has no choice, he is a eunuch, the eunuch wants to recruit soldiers, and he wants to mix with the children of a serious good family, which is no less difficult than Shu Daoxing.
Therefore, he has to use special means to start a business and pull people up.
Those who "pull people's heads" are the heroes of his father-in-law Wei, without these people, can his father-in-law Wei have thousands of people in such a short time?
Impossible.
If you cooperate with Suning County, let you say that the sky is falling, there are no people who pull people's heads everywhere to persuade people to become soldiers, and there will not be a few people who sign up.
To put it bluntly, those guys who "pull people's heads" are the ones who dare to eat crabs.
This crab is the real money that Gonggong Wei took out.
As is the case in the world, as long as someone dares to try and dare to take the first step, there will be a steady stream of people who try.
If the Hunan army system is copied unchanged, these crab-eating people will evolve into future military leaders.
Whoever pulls in the soldiers is in charge, and it is difficult not to become the head of the army.
When the allocation was made from Suning, what Mazi Battalion, Song Character Battalion, and Chen Character Camp did not indicate what would happen in the future.
Why has it been so long, as long as Gonggong Wei Cao Wenyao and Wu Fuming train people according to his training manual, instead of giving these battalion leaders a formal official system and a clear upper and lower system?
The reason is not because Gonggong Wei can't get official certificates from the emperor and Liu Dugong, but because Gonggong Wei sees the future.
He couldn't really do what he promised, and reward those guys who pulled people's heads.
Not to mention whether these people are capable or not, just the fact that the people they brought in only listen to them doomed Gonggong Wei to tear off the mask of hypocrisy and put them aside at some point in time.
The soldiers are the soldiers of his father-in-law Wei, not the big and small directors.
He, Gonggong Wei, pointed out that this Wei family army would turn the tide in the future, how could it easily become another Guanning army.
However, it is definitely not okay to just play it directly.
Your father-in-law Wei set a loyalty, faithfulness, and wisdom for his own pro-soldier camp, but when it was his turn to do things, he destroyed the "letter" first, and how to lead the troops?
This recruitment is not a one-shot deal, do you want to replenish the source of troops in the future? Do you want to go home often?
The hometown father pointed at your backbone and scolded you for not being righteous and untrustworthy, and your father-in-law Wei can really be a gentleman and frank in his heart.
Definitely not!
How to solve this problem, Grandpa Wei is a bit forced.
Two lives as a human being, and it is not in vain.
There are no more than two means, one is the parallel of political work and military work, and the other is the actual descent of Mingsheng, wearing a big hat, saying good things, holding money, but he is a counselor who does not do anything.
Only by solving this most fatal problem can we not only ensure the infinite loyalty of his disciples to his father-in-law Wei, but also prevent the trouble that will not be lost in the future.
Father-in-law Wei has not officially decided which one to adopt, and he is not in a hurry to get the reorganization plan out.
He was waiting for a military uniform.
The Buddha wants to be dressed in gold, and people want to be clothed.
The army must first have a look, don't look at the variety of clothes it wears now, like a mass rally, if you really put a military uniform on your body, you will immediately have a sense of seriousness and solemnity.
Military uniforms are systems, ancient and modern, uniforms are the easiest thing to produce a sense of collectivity, and it is also the easiest to produce authority.
To say that in the military uniform, Father-in-law Wei is attentive. Although Zheng Duo was asked to contact with the garment workshops in the capital, from the design of military uniforms to the selection of fabrics and accessories, he was personally decided by the old man.
Military uniforms are customized in two styles, divided into winter clothes and summer clothes.
This winter dress is actually not called winter clothes, specifically it is actually spring and autumn clothes.
The reason why he didn't directly customize the cotton clothes was because Gonggong Wei considered that in the next three to five years, the main area of activity of him and his subordinates would be in the south.
Although Daming is now affected by the weather of the Xiaoice River, the temperature is relatively low, but there is still no obvious change in the south.
Therefore, winter clothes cannot be made purely from cotton clothes, otherwise, it is likely to die of heat.
The color of the military uniform is mainly red, and red is also the main base color of the Ming military uniform system.
Daming is the virtue of fire, and red is the base color set when the country was founded.
It is possible that this red color is also inherited by the Red Turban Army.
After all, Emperor Taizu is inherited from the Red Turban Army that "holds a steel knife of ninety-nine and kills all Hu Erfang".
In terms of style, Gonggong Wei did not adopt the military uniforms of the previous life wisely, but honestly quoted the main characteristics of the clothing of today's Ming army, except for the collar and sleeves made some changes, and added copper buttons and other accessories to the clothing to make the military uniform look more magnificent, and the rest of the aspects have basically not changed.
The shoes are mainly cloth shoes, and the officer's boots are fixed.
Whether cloth shoes and boots are suitable for naval warfare and for the hot weather in the south will also depend on the specific situation.
The hat is also a traditional felt hat of the Ming army, with a pointed top and some red cherry blossoms tied to it.
I bought a lot of cotton armor from the War Bureau, and when the war broke out, these cotton armors would definitely have to be covered.
In this way, the good-looking appearance of the military uniform may be reduced, but it can save your life.
In addition to weaponry, personnel training, and military uniforms and bedding, an excellent army should also pay attention to logistics, transportation, staff officers, and external relations.
It can be said that one is indispensable.
So far, either none of this has been done or everything has been kept simple.
Zheng Duo is very busy now, he is the one who contacts and purchases externally, and he also distributes food internally and keeps the materials. To say that this former horse bandit leader has now become the chief manager of Gonggong Wei, it is not false at all.
There are only a dozen or so people under his command who can come in handy, and the rest are limited by the threshold of illiteracy.
And illiteracy was repeatedly emphasized by Wei Gonggong in recruitment.
But how can an illiterate army become a strong army?
Unity is strength, and knowledge is even more powerful.
The reason why Gonggong Wei did not distribute the firearms he got back from Nanzhen to his hometown was because these soldiers were illiterate and did not know anything about how to use firearms, maintenance and repair.
As a last resort, he had to rely on the surrender of the Japanese to build the first iron artillery team of the Wei army.
Therefore, it is imperative to strengthen the military's cultural education.
said a thousand ways and ten thousand, Wei Gonggong wanted to recruit illiterate soldiers, out of loyalty, not to really make them illiterate forever.
Knowledge is in the hands of others, and that is the ass decides the head.
The ass is crooked, and the more knowledge there is, the more reactionary it becomes.
Only by taking it into its own hands and instilling it in oneself can we ensure that the Wei family army can truly become an army that obeys the command of the father-in-law, can win battles, and has a good work style.
Everything has a long way to go.
Father-in-law Wei has endless things waiting for him.
partial, the doppelganger is weak.
Tomorrow Zheng Guotai is there, no matter how he has to go, even if he doesn't express any opinions, or just says that it's good, he wants to go in person.
This time and again, it was delayed for half a day.
What's the hurry, no matter how anxious you are, you have to go.
Father-in-law Wei asked Zheng Duo when the military uniforms would be in place, and Zheng Duo replied that the days set by several garment factories were either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, in short, more than 4,000 sets of military uniforms could be delivered one after another in these two days.
"When you send it over, you have to personally bring someone to check it..."
Father-in-law Wei instructed Zheng Duo to inspect his clothes, not to see them one by one, but also to do random inspections. After the clothes arrived, according to the measurements previously given to the soldiers, the heads of the large and small battalions were organized and divided into separate heads, and then they were handed down one by one. The big ones and the small ones should be written down in detail, and the master of the garment workshop should keep some in the camp to change them as they come, and it is important to ensure that all the soldiers' clothes fit before departure.
Zheng Duo wrote them down one by one, and Gonggong Wei asked about the recent expenses in the camp, and Zheng Duo roughly said that the range of expenses was within the range of Gonggong Wei's previous estimates.
After letting Zheng Duo go down to rest, Duke Wei said to Cao and Wu that he was going to write to the emperor and ask the Son of Heaven to go to Nanyuan to serve as a soldier on the day he went south.
Cao and Wu were taken aback.
Wei Gonggong signaled that the two of them should not be frightened, but said that the assembly drill should be strengthened in the next two days, so as to complete the assembly of the battalions in the half-pillar incense.
"You don't have to worry about the rest, just do as we say... The emperor may not come there, so let's give it a try..."
Father-in-law Wei is really not sure if Wanli will come, after all, his old man's legs and feet are inconvenient.
After Cao and Wu left, they pondered for a while, sat in front of the bookcase, sharpened themselves, and then took up the pen and wrote a chapter of the first presentation.
The title is "Respectfully Ask the Emperor to Review the Ming Navy".
