Chapter 58: The Key to Troop Training
Under the leadership of Lin Liangjun, Su Ze came to the highest slope of Changning Guard.
The first generation of hundreds of households built a hundred households office here. This place can monitor the dynamics of the sea and the guard station. It is the place with the broadest view in the entire Changning Guard.
The Baihusuo is a military building with a base made of stones. It looks like a tower. When Changning Guard is attacked, the families of soldiers can take refuge inside.
There is a row of walls next to the Baihusuo. There are two guards guarding the main entrance. Lin Liangjun led Su Ze through the main gate and entered the Baihusuo.
There was a brick gable-roof building on the stone foundation. Lin Liangjun led Su Ze up the steps and finally arrived in front of the Hundred Households.
"Brother, I brought someone to you!"
As soon as the little carrot head yelled, a slightly sharp male voice said: "Please come in, Mr. Su."
Lin Liangjun pulled Su Ze into the Hundred Household Office. According to the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty, this is the second entrance to the Mingtang, where the government offices work and receive guests.
I only saw a screen pulled up in the bright hall. The sharp male voice behind the screen said:
"I have been injured on my face these days. I am afraid that I will scare Mr. Lin. It is rude of Lin to meet guests like this."
Su Ze knew full well that this It was Lin Baihu who was afraid of revealing that she was disguised as a man if she got too close, but she learned her falsetto well. If she hadn't been preconceived, she wouldn't have been able to tell that she was a woman.
"Liangjun, look at the tea."
Lin Liangjun reluctantly brought the teacup. This white porcelain teacup from Chang Ningwei had several gaps. The tea with foam floating on it was not as good as boiled water. Su Ze took a sip. He put it down and said,
"I don't know when Baihu will call me here to see me."
This is not because Baihu received me poorly. Changning Guards was about to pawn the thirty-two taels of silver fine for fighting, and Baihu had already The poor jingle rang.
Su Ze admired Lin Baihu's integrity. There were opportunities everywhere on the sea today. Even if he didn't smuggle himself, as long as he allowed a few merchants to dock at the port, the huge profits would make Baihu live a good life. day.
"I invited Mr. Su here this time to teach you the art of battle formation."
Lin Mojun had paid attention to this mandarin duck formation since Su Ze began to train the ordinary guardsmen of Changning Guard in Changning Guard.
After thinking about it carefully, I felt that this formation was extremely exquisite and particularly suitable for fighting against Japanese pirates.
However, Su Ze only explained the ordinary formation tactics, and did not explain the more complex formation changes and tactics when encountering the enemy. Lin Mojun just stole the teacher from the little carrot head and never learned the key points.
This time when Su Ze came back from the county town, Lin Mojun couldn't bear it anymore and asked his brother to invite Su Ze to the Hundred Households Office and ask him about the mandarin duck formation in person.
Lin Mojun was a little nervous. Su Ze said that this set of formations came from "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" and was the art of war passed down from his family. This family knowledge was not passed down to others. If Su Ze refused, he could only give it to him as a gift. leave.
However, the Japanese rebellion has become more and more intense these days. A few days ago, a hundred-household camp near Changning Guard was attacked by Japanese pirates. More than half of the guardsmen were killed in the battle, and the entire guardhouse was robbed.
Changningwei had always been active in suppressing Japanese pirates and was regarded as a thorn in the side of several nearby pirate gangs, which made Lin Mojun feel a sense of urgency.
In fact, Lin Mojun's hunch was correct. The 33rd year of Jiajing was the most intense year in the entire Peking-Japanese War. In February of this year, Japanese pirates invaded Suzhou and Songjiang, the sacred places of the Ming Dynasty. The county magistrate of Songjiang County was killed in the battle.
Then the Japanese pirates began to divide their forces and went north to attack Qingzhou and Xuzhou. Qi Jiguang led his army to defend in Shandong.
Going south to attack Putuo, Ningbo, General Yu Dayou led the officers and soldiers to defend, but were defeated by Japanese pirates, and more than 300 people died in the battle.
Fujian, as the traditional disaster area of the Japanese Rebellion, has not been recorded in the history books. This is not because the Japanese Rebellion in Fujian is not serious, but because the Japanese Rebellion in Fujian is no longer worthy of being recorded in the history books. If you look at the local chronicles along the coast of Fujian, almost every year There are records of Japanese pirates attacking Fucheng and counties and causing people to be displaced.
Faced with Lin Mojun's request for advice, Su Ze did not hide his secrets, but said: "I am also a member of the Changning Guard. Coastal defense is related to the safety of the Changning Guard. It is just a mandarin duck formation. The purpose of writing military books is to teach people to kill the enemy. Yes, isn't it just a pearl gathering dust if it is shelved in a high cabinet? If hundreds of households have anything to ask, just ask."
Hearing Su Ze's generosity, Lin Mojun's voice became a little sharper, and she said quickly:
"Then please trouble Mr. Su. Okay, I'm ashamed to say that I also asked my good brother about the Yuanyang Formation, but I couldn't figure out some of the tricks, so I still have to ask my husband for advice."
Lin Mojun then told the doubts he encountered when he secretly learned the Yuanyang Formation, Su Ze answered them all one by one.
Lin Mojun asked about the method of changing formations again. Su Ze also explained several changes in the Yuanyang Formation when encountering the enemy, explaining the key points of changing formations and the order of operations. Lin Mojun listened carefully and put forward some new ideas. The problem.
Only then did Su Ze discover that this female Baihu was very talented in military training, and she was not just a paper talker like him, but someone who really knew how to train soldiers.
The questions Lin Mojun asked were all ones that might be encountered in actual combat. Some of the questions were written in Ji Xiao's new book and Su Ze could answer them, while some were even Su Ze couldn't answer.
The two of them discussed like this until the evening, and Lin Mojun still felt that there was still something to say. Su Ze was like a treasure house that could never be squeezed dry. Talking to him would always bring out some new ideas.
When Lin Mojun's father was here, he took him to Quanzhou to meet Yu Shibo, who had won the martial arts examination. When his father and Yu Shibo were discussing military affairs, Lin Mojun, who was only a teenager at the time, said: That Yu Shibo was extremely surprised.
Yu Shibo said at that time that if Lin Mojun were a man, he would definitely be the general of the General Division Wanjun!
After his father's death, Lin Mojun was able to support the Changning Guard's military as a daughter. In addition to the Lin family's prestige in the seventh generation of Changning Guard, it was also inseparable from Lin Mojun's ability in training and commanding troops. .
Lin Mojun had torn through all the military books at home. None of her daughters could go to other guards to discuss the art of war. Her younger brother Lin Liangjun was just a child. The problems accumulated over the years were not discussed. Today, she finally met Su Ze. People who can study the art of war together.
[Exchanging the Art of War, "Art of War" experience +10, Lv2, 50/200]
How much more? Su Ze was overjoyed when he saw the prompt that popped up. The experience gained from exchanging military skills was actually more than fighting Zhu Qi and other Japanese pirates.
But it's normal to think about it. Zhu Qi's gang of Japanese pirates are just a ragtag group of salt diners who can't afford to eat. It doesn't take much effort to defeat them.
But Su Ze also benefited a lot from his exchange with Lin Mojun today. Some of the things he said on paper were put into practice, and it is not surprising that he gained ten points of experience.
However, in this afternoon, Su Ze's Level 2 art of war was almost exhausted, and he was afraid that it would be out of stock if he continued the discussion.
Su Ze coughed and said, "When I read "Wu Mu's Suicide Notes", I feel that the art of fighting in battle formations comes second. The most important thing in the art of war is strict discipline." (End of Chapter
