Chapter 109 The sages start killing today

The cave was on fire, and the officers and soldiers took the opportunity to gather ants from all directions and stormed in from various routes. The bandits who were in a panic had completely collapsed, and were slashed and killed by the officers and soldiers until their heads rolled and blood flowed horizontally. For a period of time after that, it was to hunt down and kill the bandits who fled all over the mountains and plains.From Changfu Village to Xianghu Lake, there are 43 bandit nests, large and small, with more than 10,000 bandits.Although the strength of the officers and soldiers is less than one-tenth of that of the bandits, they are the top fighters, while the bandits gather together to become bandits, and disperse to become the people. Hoe pretends to be a hardworking and kind farmer.

But reinstalling it at this time is no longer useful.When Mr. Yang Ming came out, he planned to kill all these guys.According to historical records, this is what Mr. Yangming had in mind for his personal expedition. Two of his friends talked with him when he left, and one of them said: Yangming will make great achievements in this trip.Another person asked: How do you know it?He said to him, "I can't move if I touch it!" The last sentence is untouchable, which means that Mr. Yangming has made up his mind and will never let those bandits live to see the sun the next day. There are different religions: the sages start killing today, and the gates of the underworld are wide open.Mr. Yangming personally sat on the sedan chair, supervised the journey, and burned all the forty-three bandit lair strongholds.At this time, the thieves were all frightened by the battle of Xianghu, hiding at home and pretending to be good citizens, not daring to come out to fight with the officers and soldiers, so this is the perfect time to kill.In this battle, Mr. Yangming planned to kill more than 7,000 people, including the famous bandits Zhan Shifu, Wen Huoshao, etc. The bandits entrenched in Changfu Village were finally wiped out by Mr. Yangming once and for all.

Then he wrote a memorial to the imperial court to report his merits. This time, Mr. Yangming’s sacred teaching finally failed. In order to show his merits for his soldiers, he wrote a memorial of 50,000 words, which was comparable to a novel when printed. But the court didn't even look at it, and firmly believed that Mr. Yangming was talking nonsense. The imperial court didn't have to compete with Mr. Yangming, but there was such a rule at that time. When magistrates gave memorials, they habitually exaggerated their own contributions, and the exaggeration rate was generally about ten times.But the imperial court is more kind. You exaggerate ten times, and the higher-ups have no way to check it carefully. They can only see the memorial and cut off half of your credit before speaking.

There is a decree in the holy order to reward Mr. Yangming with twenty taels of silver, a certificate of merit, and a promotion to one rank.For the rest of the people who have contributed to the suppression of bandits, let's wait until we find out, let's forget it this time. Mr. Yangming wrote the memorial again, begging bitterly, saying: I am not exaggerating here, don't cut it in half, just reward me as I said... The imperial court said: Don't think about it, twenty taels of silver has already been awarded, enough for you to drink tea, right?Raise troops immediately, go to Lingbei, and dig out the bandit den there, hurry up!

Mr. Yangming wrote the memorial again: Digging out the bandit's den, it couldn't be easier.However, can the imperial court lend me a flag first and grant me the power to command on the fly, that is, the full power of the admiral to supervise military affairs.As long as this power is given to me, I guarantee that no officer or soldier will be dispatched, and only the two thousand militiamen I have trained will be used for no more than half a year to clean up the bandit den. The court said to him: Don't think about it blindly. It is impossible to give you the admiral to supervise military affairs by borrowing your flag.

Mr. Yangming looked up to the sky and mourned, and cried loudly, saying: It is easy to break the thief in the mountain, but it is difficult to break the thief in the heart! So Mr. Yangming wrote another memorial: Just borrow a flag, it's a trivial matter, what's wrong with it, it's totally fine.Leaders, listen to me telling you, I plan to train the militia in this way, please see if it makes sense, stupid leaders: Every time the soldiers are mobilized, twenty-five people form a team, and there are Xiaojia in the team.Fifty people form a team, and the team has a leader.Two hundred people make up a sentry post, with one sentry chief and one assistant sentry.Four hundred people form a battalion, with one battalion officer and two staff officers.1,200 people form a team, and there are partial generals in the team.Two thousand four hundred people form an army, and the army has deputy generals.There will be no fixed staff, and it will be set up on a temporary basis.

Xiao Jia is selected from each army, chief Jia is selected from Xiao Jia, and the post chief is selected from thousands of righteous officials.The lieutenant general can be punished, the partial general can be punished by the battalion officer, the battalion officer can be punished by the whistle chief, the whistle chief can be punished by the chief armor, the chief armor can be punished by the small armor, and the small armor can be punished by the soldiers.Make sure that the upper and lower are connected, like the body and the arms, the natural movements are unified, and the crowd is like the few.

The compilation is established, each team will be given a card, and the names of the same team will be listed, which is called Wu Talisman.Each team has two cards, compiled and established a name, one for Zongjia, and one for the court, which are called team symbols.There are two cards for each sentry post, with a registered name, one for the post chief, and one for the courtyard, which are called sentry signs.Each battalion has two cards, compiled and established a name, one for the battalion officer, and one for the courtyard, which is called the camp talisman.Whenever there is a call for a call, a sign is issued to prevent fraud.

Also sparsely apply for rewards and punishments.If a soldier retreats before the battle, the leader of the army will behead him immediately.If the leader of the army does not order, the commander-in-chief will be beheaded immediately before the army.It has the skills of capturing and cutting, and no matter how high or low it is, it will be rewarded as a whole.To capture the thieves alive, Kanming will never wait. The days of thieves and thieves grow, and they are too indiscriminate to recruit.Too much recruiting is caused by insufficient military strength.Insufficient military strength is not enough due to rewards and punishments.Beg false ministers, etc., to order flags and tokens, so that they can act cheaply.

It is said that Wang Qiong, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, saw Mr. Yangming's memorial, and his eyes were so anxious that he fired a cannon at the court meeting and said: What the hell is going on with you people?Wang Yangming is a person who has both actual combat experience and military theory. Since he proposed to borrow a flag to supervise military affairs, and is even willing to issue a military order, let him go and wipe out the bandits.Why do you have to argue with him and not give him the chance to show off? All the officials shook their heads together and said: "You are sent, Wang Qiong, you are sent, Wang Shouren is a civil servant, but he wants to use the flag to supervise military affairs. There is no precedent for this before. It is not allowed."

Wang Qiong said: "There are so many things that have no precedent. It's nothing special to add such a thing." After half a year of quarrels and meetings, in the end, the imperial court couldn't beat Wang Qiong, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and agreed to Mr. Yangming's request. Borrowing Mr. Yangming's banner, the admiral supervised military affairs and asked him to settle Xie Zhishan, Gao Kuaima, Huang Xiukui, Chi Zhongrong and other bandits in the Lingbei area.
