Just like a firearm, Qi Jiguang pointed out that the fact that bird guns are better than three-eyed and fast guns, but the southern soldiers are mostly used, while the northern soldiers do not accept much.

In addition to the court's finances and the quality of muskets, the complicated loading and shooting process is also a very important reason. The so-called "the northern soldiers are in trouble" means that the northern soldiers do not have the patience.

Is victory important or patience important?

The two armies confronted each other, and were killed and injured. They gave up their advanced weapons because they were impatient and were willing to lose, and many people died? This is really a strange thing.

The soldiers in the north and the south are all the people of the Ming Dynasty. Their tempers and nature may differ, but they cannot be changed.

What are the strict punishments and laws that are not humane, without iron discipline, and without chilling strictness. How to build a strong and victorious army?

Based on this concept, Zhu Youxiao had long selected a group of correctional instructors. Just after the prisoner offering ceremony, the officers and soldiers of each town fell into hell before they woke up from their excitement.

In the early morning, the sky just turned white, and the sound of urging drums began to sound.

From officers to soldiers, they have to dress neatly in the shortest time and gather to run and have sex together. After half an hour, they will collect sex and wash and go to the cafeteria to have dinner.

After a short rest after dinner, there is a training in which spear assassination and musket casting takes turns; lunch, rest, knife and shield practice, musket casting; dinner, rest, exercises, tactical discussions, and sleep.

The day was full of arrangements, and when I was a little lazy during training, the instructor swung the stick, which made the officers and soldiers suffer enough.

But one thing is that you can eat well and eat well. You can eat a meal of meat in two days, and there are enough oil stars, big cakes and rice in the usual soup.

Besides, suffering and suffering is not your life, and escaping will lead to beheading immediately.

After a few days, these soldiers adapted to training and were beaten less often, so they no longer complained.

The training will take one day off for six days, and tomorrow will be the day off.

As soon as the afternoon training ended, each person paid three taels of silver, and they all took a shower and changed clothes happily, preparing to go to the capital to eat, drink and stroll, and see the prosperity under the emperor's feet.

After taking a shower, Kong Youde changed into a clean military uniform and returned to the dormitory happily. The officers were treated with preferential treatment, and he and Zhang Pan lived in the same room, so he did not have to sleep in the bed like a big head soldier.

Zhang Pan was still wearing dirty clothes and was sitting at the small table writing something.

"Brother Zhang, what are you writing?" Kong Youde lay on the bed, tilted his head and asked, "Come and take a shower quickly, Meimei's sleep, I'll go shopping in the capital tomorrow, I'll invite you to drink."

Zhang Pan smiled and said without raising his head, "No hurry, I wrote down my training experience over the past few days. Some suggestions that need improvement will be submitted to the Ministry of War."

Kong Youde was a miner and couldn't read. He smiled and said, "It's better to read the text and verbal words. I can understand the scattered scripts and other words now, but I can't read them."

Zhang Pan looked up at Kong Youde and smiled and said, "It's not easy to read. I'll teach you! In the future, you have to read some military books to lead the army to fight."

Kong Youde closed his smile, thought for a while, and said, "You have made sense. I have been thinking about these methods of practicing the new army, as well as the scheming scriptures, etc., so I have figured out some tricks."

Zhang Pan nodded with encouragement.

"Although the Wansheng gun fires slowly, the advantage of breaking armor is terrifying." Kong Youde was encouraged and continued: "In my opinion, it is most appropriate to defend with a firm mind; if it is a field battle, it depends on whether the spearman and the sword and shield soldiers can block the impact of the enemy cavalry. Well, the Donglu's hand-to-hand combat must be vigilant and must be blocked."

"Where is the Eagle-Ring Gun?" Zhang Pan raised his eyebrows.

Kong Youde grinned and said, "That game is too strong, it's enough to touch it. It's just a little heavier, not as flexible as the Wansheng gun. Well, so it's less equipped!"

Zhang Pan pondered for a while and said, "What Brother Mao saw is not much different from someone. He also believes that if he loses in melee combat, the musket will be difficult to restrain Jiannu. If he leans against the city to defend, Jiannu may suffer heavy casualties under the bullets."

"And there is also armor." Kong Youde turned over, sat up, and said, "The spearmen must have heavy armor to resist the arrows of Jiannu."

Zhang Pan smiled and said, "Then I will write down Brother Mao's suggestions and sign our names."

"This-" Kong Youde scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, "Not good, right?"

"What's wrong?" Zhang Pan smiled and said, "This is indeed Brother Kong's suggestion. It's just a truthful record."

Kong Youde knew that Zhang Pan was helping him, because at the beginning of the training, Lord Sun, the Minister of War, personally trained them, which also showed that the training of the new army was a pioneering and had many shortcomings. If you have any suggestions, you can write to the Ministry of War.

Being able to write to the Ministry of War to make suggestions is equivalent to placing a name from Lord Sun. Maybe he would also like to mention the emperor. His future will naturally be much brighter.

Zhang Pan brushed a few times, finished writing the suggestion after a while, packed it up, and said, "I'll wash it up too, it will be loose tomorrow."

When he walked to the door, Zhang Pan stopped again and turned his head and said, "Whether to tell those colleagues, it doesn't matter whether he is walking with him."

Kong Youde blinked his eyes, jumped off the bed, and said, "I don't blame many people for being kind. I'll go and invite you, you can do it yourself."

……………………

There are several camps near the recruit training camps in Liao Town, Jin Town, Deng Town and Dongjiang Town, but the training is the Tengxiang Four Guards established during the Zhengde period, which was later called the Warriors Camp and the Four Guards Camp.

The Tengxiang Four Guards were "the strongest officials and soldiers of the Tianxia Guards and the men who walked back among the enemy." At first, there were only a few thousand people, but later they gradually expanded into the Four Guards, and the number of people gradually increased.

Later, after rectification during the Jiajing period, the imperial guards were organized into the Warriors' camp and the Four Guards' camp, and the management agency was the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

From the management organization, we can see that the Warriors' Camp and the Four Guards' Camp were imperial guards commanded by the inner court and directly belonged to the emperor.

Therefore, since Zhu Youxiao was possessed and reborn, he began to rectify this once brave direct unit.

If the selection criteria of the Tengxiang Four Guards are followed, the strength of the officers and soldiers of the Tianxia Guards will definitely be fine in terms of physical fitness.

However, from the establishment to the taking over by Zhu Youxiao, under the erosion of the years and months, the four guards of Tengxiang also began to corrupt and their combat effectiveness decreased significantly.

In history, it was not until Chongzhi succeeded to the throne that vigorous rectification began, and finally restored the strength of this army and became a strong army in the late Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao naturally would not let go. This is a direct army led by himself and could be personally commanded. You must not be careless.

So, he used his famous historical father-in-law Cao Huachun.
