Chapter 22? The starting point of a famous star (2)

Qi Jiguang's biography. Among the outstanding generals in the Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang's overall quality should rank among the top five in terms of bravery and strategizing, but the reason why he can occupy such an important position in military history is because he has an unparalleled specialty-training.

When he saw the fighting capacity of Zhejiang and Zhejiang armies in the Ming Dynasty, he was shocked and made up his mind to train a new army. Hu Zongxian promised him 3 recruits. And 3 new recruits an egg shaped thing came to the military camp with the dream of making ends meet, but they never dreamed that the life waiting for them in front would be hell.

So, under that almost inhuman training method, the recruits live in dire straits and get black and blue every day. However, it is in this cruel environment that they have mastered extraordinary martial arts and achieved extraordinary career.

hundreds of years later, this special unit has become a legend, and it will go down in history forever with a glorious name-Qi Jiajun.

in the history of China, there have been countless elite special armies, such as the samurai army in the Han dynasty, the tiger and leopard riding in the Three Kingdoms period, and the Xuanjia army in the Tang dynasty. Their fighting capacity is rarely matched, but throughout the ages, only two armies are world-famous and named after the generals: except Qi Jiguang, only Yue Fei can win this honor. (Yu Dayou's army is also called Yu Jiajun, but it is not famous. )

For Qi Jiguang and his army, this is a well-deserved evaluation.

At first, this Qijiajun did win many victories, and it was invincible and invincible. It beat the enemy and fled, but when it arrived in cengang, Zhoushan, it was impossible to beat a mere 1, enemies, and it was defeated again and again. What the hell is going on here?

He thought hard for a long time and finally found the crux of the problem-soldiers.

In Qi Jiguang's view, an invincible army must have the following qualities:

Like the wind, Xu Rulin; Invade like fire, not moving like a mountain; Difficult to know as Yin, moving as Lei Zhen. (Sun Tzu's Art of War. )

this is the "six truisms" which is regarded as a classic by countless military strategists. Those who reach the "six truisms" have a cloud in their minds, and they will be invincible if they fight, attack and take!

among the "six rufus", the last two rufus depend on generals, while the first four rufus must rely on small soldiers.

Qi Jiguang still has confidence in his ability, but when it comes to the quality of his gang, Qi Jiguang can only be speechless.

Qi Jiguang decided to find a group of brave and tough people to replace the existing soldiers and form a truly invincible Qi family army.

where can I find a soldier? Through a chance encounter, he finally found it, that is, the soldiers in Yiwu.

Since June, the thirty-seventh year of Jiajing (1558), Yiwu miners, villagers and miners who came from Yongkang broke out, and the total number of people involved in the fighting reached about 3,, which lasted for four months. Until the autumn harvest ended, Yongkang people were driven back to their original places, and more than 2,5 people were killed or injured on both sides.

It was a scene that Qi Jiguang will never forget. At that moment, countless ordinary Yiwu people became so extraordinary. They went into battle together, regardless of men, women and children, using all the weapons they could find to fight the enemy. Farmers used hoes, miners used hoes, and even housewives picked up kitchen knives, with fierce eyes, screaming and rushing into the enemy lines, slashing and killing, and keeping strangers away.

They are not only brave in chopping people, but also have a great spirit of sacrifice and a fine tradition of struggle. The father injured his son's replacement, and the elder brother disabled his younger brother. Even those who were beaten to their last breath and carried home to die left a last word before they died: After I die, you will continue to fight!

this is really a magical land. Qi Jiguang sent a heartfelt sigh.

So, he hurried back, and sought audience with Hu Zongxian overnight, and said this: If I am allowed to recruit 4, troops in Yiwu, the enemy's rebellion will be put to rest!

General Qi's recruitment requirements: Those who are selected to join the army are not allowed to use them: those who have been in the streets, those who like to make gestures, those who are over 4, and those who have worked in government agencies.

The above is second, and the more magical requirements are as follows:

People who like to brag and talk too much can't use it, people who are timid can't use it, people who are white can't use it, and people who are extreme (biased) can't use it to ensure the mental health of the team.

According to this standard, even if Mr. Wu Song, a tiger-fighting hero, comes to apply, he will be defeated, because he has not only been a public official (the head of the army), but also has a bad personality (leaving his name with blood after killing people).

And those who are accepted must also have the following characteristics: strong arms, strong muscles, bright eyes, honesty, long hands and feet, and fear of the government.

To sum up, what Qi Jiguang is looking for is a group of people: muscular men with developed limbs, simple mind, honest, law-abiding, obedient to the government, daring to fight hard, daring to charge and not afraid of death, and having the character of an idiot.

As it turns out, Yiwu is indeed full of talented people. Although the recruitment requirements are so high, more than 4, people have been selected gloriously after the sea election, which shows that the local people have a high political consciousness in addition to their great commercial potential.
