Chapter 93 I want to be humble
Before he finished speaking, the soldiers served the dishes. Li Fugui whispered: "Fried fish pieces! The Yellow River carp used, soybean oil--"
Di Qing suddenly raised his hand and said to Du Zhongxiao: "Master, you just have a meal, you can save these etiquettes."
Du Zhongxiao nodded, and Li Fu said loudly: "The Supreme Master's General Jun, everyone should serve the food as soon as possible, and the guests can enjoy some wine and meals. I will save the unnecessary vain gifts."
The soldiers who were serving the food responded and made a promise, and the speed was significantly faster.
Wang Gongchen watched the soldiers put a plate of beef sauce on the table, and curiously said to Li Fugui, who came over: "Shuai Si usually eats rice?"
Lee Fugui said: "When I go back to Nehon, of course not. We often eat in the cafeteria, drink tea after meals instead of meetings, otherwise we will be too restrictive."
After hearing this, Wang Gongchen said curiously: "You know that you are not restrained when eating, why do you still do this today? You have told me about it. I don't dare to raise my glass to put down my chopsticks."
Li Fugui said: "You are all ministers in the court, Privy Councillors, Hanlin scholars, and generals of the military. They are very comparable. To show their solemnity, the magistrate ordered that everything today will be punished according to the regulations, and if you dare to commit crimes, you will be severely punished!"
When Wang Gongchen heard this, he shook his head: "Hi, don't we just let us have a good meal and drink!"
Li Fugui said: "Nehan misunderstood that Jinglei has no intention. Since Jinglei passed the imperial examination, he has been an official outside and does not know the rules of the capital. He is afraid of neglecting you, so he ordered everything to follow the regulations. Neihan knew that if he said that he would follow the regulations, then he would be engaged in all military laws. Who would dare to do anything randomly!"
Wang Gongchen nodded and said to Sun Mian beside him: "I heard what this means, but I'd rather not let us have a good meal."
Seeing the cold dishes served, Di Qing raised his glass and said, "It is inevitable that he will work hard from the capital to Hequ Road thousands of miles away. Thank you for your wedding banquet to welcome us, and I am very grateful for your kindness. Let's drink a glass and thank you for your blessing!"
Everyone raised their glasses together, thanked Du Zhongxiao, and drank them all. After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere relaxed a little.
Wang Kai said to Du Zhongxiao: "Master, why don't you see all the generals tonight? Without them, the face of this table will inevitably be a little deserted."
This is an acquaintance he met when he was in the Volcanic Army. Du Zhongxiao's stern face relaxed slightly and said, "Yang Wenguang, the commander of Ningshuo Army, was stationed in Shazhou. Recently, the Khitan mobilized troops and did not dare to leave without any accidents. Zhao Zi, the commander of Dingyuan Army, led his troops to Heishui City, which was newly obtained from Dangxiang and was too far away from here, so he would not come to Shengzhou. Zhang Ji led his soldiers back to the barracks and had to settle down before he could come to drink with you."
Sun Mian said: "The Deputy Envoy of the Strategic Affairs Office, Zhang Sheng and Jing, were not in Shengzhou for some reason."
Du Zhongxiao said: "Zhang Sheng and Tianjing are in Fengzhou. They will build Fengzhou City and will take some days to come back. The snow will be flying in August. It is almost Mid-Autumn Festival. It will take no time to snow. They need to rush to build the city so that the army can live in order to return to Shengzhou."
When Sun Mian was in the northwest, he was a colleague of Zhang Sheng, and Tian Jing was his subordinate. He originally wanted to meet these two acquaintances, but it was a coincidence.
Di Qing said to Du Zhongxiao: "Jiangwei, this time we were ordered to come to Hequ Road, mainly to see what the military academy here looks like. This time, the commander Zhang Du led the army to win a great victory. The emperor was very dissatisfied with the military academy in the capital. We saw that if necessary, we would send people from the military academy there to come here to learn the practice of the military academy of Hequ Road and follow the teachings of the strategy."
Du Zhongdao did not dare, and thought for a while, and said, "The soldiers on Hequ Road tied the imperial guards in the capital, and there was no big difference in the soldiers. He lost during the drill. It seems that the learning of officers at all levels in the capital has not begun. - For the drill, I actually don't care about the victory or defeat. This was the case when I was in Suizhou. The key is what the participants learned from it. However, this time, the imperial guards in the capital were defeated too exaggeratedly. I want to be humble and don't know what to say. The two armies fought, and the victory or defeat was common, and the defeat was revealed, and they really couldn't win. When the entire army was successfully withdrawn, they were later. They were actually surrounded by Zhang Ji, and this was the entire army! Command of this battle-"
Speaking of this, Du Zhongxiao shook his head repeatedly, really not knowing what to say.
Whether in Suizhou or Hequ Road, Du Zhongxiao had not encountered the annihilation of one of the troops. Hequ Road's requirements for his subordinate generals must always have a clear understanding of the battlefield. When the war is unfavorable, they should organize retreats in a timely manner. The general who regardless of the situation of the war and insists on fighting to the death with the other party, no matter how brave he is, he will not be promoted to the commander's position.
Du Zhongxiao is not a conceited person. This time he performed martial arts in Beijing, he really wanted to be modest to Di Qing and others, but he really couldn't be modest. Zhang Ke actually fought in Beijing for so many years, something he had never seen before, which made people have nothing to say. I don't know which general was in command at that time and whether he came today. If he came, Du Zhongxiao really wanted to get to know him well.
In fact, the results of the exercises between the two sides of the capital were even more exaggerated than Du Zhongxiao thought. The commander was the general of the Guanjun, and finally took the blame. Li Zhang replaced Ren Pingri Tianwu Commander. During the battle, it was not just the commander of the general of the Guanjun, but many outstanding students from the Beijing school were serving as staff officers, which concentrated the wisdom of the Beijing military academy. Unexpectedly, they were divided and surrounded by Zhang Ji, and the same troops were completely wiped out.
Sighing, Du Zhongxiao said, "I don't know anything about the situation in the capital. Please ask General Zhang later. Since the Taiwei brought all the ministers to the military academy, then live in the military academy, okay?"
Di Qing nodded: "That's what it should be! If it's convenient, all the people who came here will be arranged to live in the military academy."
Du Zhongxiao called Li Fugui and said to him: "The Grand Marshal of the Privy Councilor ordered that all those who came from the capital this time live in the military academy. You can arrange it. Too late today, I will be in the city for one night and all of them will pass tomorrow."
Li Fugui agreed and hurriedly arranged to go there.
Seeing Li Fugui leave, Di Qingqi said: "Jiangluo, isn't the military academy of Hequ Road in Shengzhou?"
Du Zhongxiao said: "Of course it's in Shengzhou. However, the military academy is special. It's not in the city, but twenty miles away from the city. Don't build a military city."
Di Qing nodded after hearing this: "So that's the case. I don't know why the arrangement is so?"
Du Zhongxiao was stunned for a moment, but he had never considered this issue. At that time, he was intuition that he had to arrange it like this, so why. After thinking about it, he said: "Taiwei, for military academy, the focus is on strict discipline and learning knowledge, and he is unavoidable. If it is placed in the city, the market is complicated, and the people inside will inevitably be distracted. Furthermore, military academy is not as good as garrisons. Many people inside are generals, and it is difficult to manage too strictly. In the city, there will inevitably be conflicts with the local area, which is particularly difficult for officials to deal with."
Di Qing nodded. Du Zhongxiao said again: "Actually, the most important thing is that it is difficult to have a battlefield atmosphere in the city, it is really the same as the school."
Di Qing suddenly realized after hearing this: "It is to set up outside the city to make the generals and soldiers inside always feel like they are on the battlefield, so that's it!"
Du Zhongxiao nodded. Actually, there weren’t so many ideas when setting up the site at that time, just because he thought it was not suitable in the city. As for how many places were inappropriate, where could he list them one by one. When he was in Suizhou, places similar to military academy were also practiced by the side of the Yingtianwu.
However, the time when Hequ Road is following the state is different. At that time, a large number of people were recruited and eliminated, and the surrounding environment of the school is not important. Now it is different. The quality of soldiers is far from comparable at that time, but there is no condition for a large number of elimination. The transfers are all imperial guards, and the generals and soldiers are formally registered. Unless it is finally proven that they are not suitable for joining the army, eliminating everyone is a troublesome.
Sun Mian listened to Di Qing and Du Zhongxiao's speech and inserted it in and said, "The Generals thought that the generals could not learn from the generals' homework. The generals of the Generals of the Beijing Military Academy not only had long-term generals, but also the candidates who failed this year, were carefully selected. The knowledge they learned was also based on the booklets of the General Army. How could it be so unhealthy?"
Du Zhongxiao thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen this in person, so I really can't tell you."
Sun Mian said: "Now, not only the governors, but also the generals and ministers in the court cannot tell why. The emperor was extremely angry. If there is no improvement this time, can we only let Guanliang enter the capital and preside over this matter?"
Du Zhongxiao smiled: "If only one person can do such a thing, what's the use of setting up a military academy!"
Sun Mian sighed: "What the ruler said is."
If the military academy can only be run by Du Zhongxiao, then why should we set up a military academy? The purpose of setting up a military academy is to train qualified soldiers and generals according to fixed procedures. If we cannot achieve this goal, it is better to keep drawing people from Hequ Road.
In fact, before the exercise with Zhang Ke on Hequ Road, the ministers in the court, including the emperor and the prime minister, were very satisfied with the military academy in the capital. Since its establishment, the emperor and the prime ministers went to watch many times, and the emperor also sent internal ministers to reward and condolences. Before the exercise, the generals and soldiers of the capital military academy demonstrated the military formation to the court officials many times, and they also reproduced the content of the military exercises of the Hequ Road army at that time in Chongzheng Hall, and the ministers applauded. At that time, the court unanimously agreed that it would be easy to have such a strong army of hundreds of thousands, and it would be easy to spread the world with hundreds of thousands of strong troops. As long as one or two years and the entire army was completed, all Dangxiang and Khitan were like native chickens and tiles. Going north to restore Youyan was easy.
As a result, when all this arrived, the Hequ Road soldiers were stunned by Zhang Ke's palm.
