Ming Dynasty: The opening spoiler: Chongzhen is the king who lost his country

Wen Tiren reminded.

"Lord Wen, this is nothing sensational, this will only be a trend, since ancient times, people who read have never read, and soldiers are also people, why can't they read. "

Yun Zheng asked rhetorically.

Sun Chengzong didn't care about these, although he was a civil servant, he stayed in the army more. He asked, "There are so many soldiers, how can they be literate?"

Yun Zheng turned his head to look at Sun Chengzong again: "You can let the quartermaster teach the soldiers to read and write in addition to training and fighting, and the soldiers are not required to be able to recite poems and write against each other, just need to be literate, which can be called the army literacy campaign!"

Emperor Chongzhen has no objection to the literacy of the soldiers, they are all my people, and now these scholars are all read as Brother Kong Fang, and I will have to treat them sooner or later, but if the soldiers are allowed to read and write, how much extra pen and paper are needed, and how much is it.

So he said, "I don't have any money left to buy pens and paper for the soldiers to read and write!"

Yun Zheng smiled and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, don't worry, it won't cost much." At that time, Yue Fei Yue Wumu was also from a poor family, and he practiced writing with branches on the sand table. "

He paused, and then asked Emperor Chongzhen proudly: "Your Majesty, do you remember the blackboard I made before?"

Emperor Chongzhen remembered that Yun Zheng used to paint a piece of wood black for writing, so he nodded.

Wen Tiren suddenly realized on the side, knowing that this thing could be used.

"With this blackboard, you don't need paper, you can write on it, erase it and write it again, and reuse it. Soldiers practice calligraphy, can be repeatedly written on the ground to erase it, saving paper. And with this blackboard, a quartermaster can teach many non-commissioned officers to read and write together at the same time, and there is no problem. "

When Emperor Chongzhen heard Yun Zheng say this, he realized that the original blackboard was so useful and could save a lot of money, so he couldn't help but nod again and again, good thing.

"Moreover, if a large blackboard is difficult to carry, you can ask the soldier to carry a small blackboard on his back, a square one. If you don't encounter a soft place on the sandy and muddy ground, you can write and draw on the small blackboard. When you are resting and camping together, you can put together a small blackboard to form a large blackboard for the quartermaster to teach. "

Several people nodded again, and Yun Zheng suddenly remembered the scene of the soldier carrying the small blackboard on the battlefield, as if there was another effect, and couldn't help joking: "When the small blackboard is facing the enemy, it can also be used as a small shield to block arrows." "

The few people present laughed at this, which is also too exaggerated.

Since it is this kind of learning method, those who have vested interests in reading people are afraid that they have nowhere to object, but it is still okay.

After talking for so long, Sun Chengzong suddenly remembered that Yun Zheng still didn't say how the quartermaster was promoted, how to get promoted, and if there were two in the army, how to order the solution of the whole army, he just answered the first question. So, Sun Chengzong pulled the topic back and asked for the solution to this.

Yun Zheng only remembered at this time, why did he talk so much at once, okay, let's talk about this problem.

Yun Zheng said: "Your Majesty, two adults, I thought that quartermasters should also be promoted with military merits, following the Qin Dynasty's military merit knighthood system. "

Sun Chengzong couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and said: "This dynasty has it, the prince and the uncle are third-class, and they can't be sealed without military merits." "

Speaking of which, he looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Of course, relatives can also be knighted." "

In fact, there are exceptions, and the children of some powerful eunuchs also have the title of prince, such as Wei Zhongxian's nephew Wei Liangqing was once named the Duke of Ningguo.

"That is, there is no such thing as an institutionalization. "

Yun Zheng immediately took over the topic and said: "Moreover, the third-class title of Duke and Earl should be limited to high-ranking generals, and the military merits of the Qin Dynasty are divided into twenty ranks, from soldiers to generals. In this way, the soldiers can be motivated to use their lives. "

Wen Tiren reminded on the side: "It is true that Qin used such military exploits to be knighted, the soldiers were crazy, and the combat power soared, but it was just too easy to break, so the second died, and future generations did not use it because of this." "

Emperor Chongzhen watched the debate of several courtiers below at the top, not with personal attacks, but on the matter, arguing to solve the matter, this attitude of doing things is very satisfying.

But it seems to be off topic again, doesn't it say how the quartermaster was promoted, how he was promoted, how to talk about the generals and soldiers, is there a turning point in the future to talk about the matter of the quartermaster? Thinking of this, he didn't speak, just watched quietly.

Yun Zheng replied to Wen Tiren: "What Lord Wen said is good, therefore, we can take its strengths and avoid its shortcomings. It makes the combat power of my Ming army soar, but it is not crazy. In this way, it is not the best of both worlds. "

"How do you have both?".

A loud voice rang in Yun Zheng's ears.

"First, the implementation of military merit knighthood. The title is linked to the treatment, which stimulates the meritorious service of the soldiers and generals. Second, the first rank should not be regarded as the only condition for achieving military merits, and the first rank should not be used as a condition for individual military merits of non-commissioned officers. "

How to calculate military merits has always been a difficult problem to solve.

Rulers of all dynasties and generations have had a headache with this.

Listening to Yun Zheng talk about the main point, they all listened carefully.

"Needless to say, let's focus on the second point, as far as the twentieth level military merits of the Qin Dynasty are concerned, the soldiers are divided according to the first level, and the military merits are counted on the heads of specific soldiers. In this way, it will cause the head to be faked, that is, to kill the good and take the merits, and the soldiers will fight to grab the head, or ignore military discipline or the feelings of comrades. However, have you ever thought about it: if you are the only one on the battlefield, can you cut the opponent's head? Without the cover of your comrades, you can cut the opponent's head? Without the excellent command of the general, can you cut the opponent's head?"

Yun Zheng asked three rhetorical questions in a row.

Sun Chengzong, Wen Tiren, and Emperor Chongzhen all nodded, indicating that it was impossible.

"Therefore, the battlefield actually pays attention to group combat, and Qi Dashuai actually did a good job of one thing, his soldiers were carried out according to a small team, one of whom was specifically responsible for cutting the head, and then the whole small team shared the credit of the head. "

Yun Zheng suddenly realized that he seemed to be off topic, and more importantly, this topic couldn't continue, and he didn't think about !!

Scratching his head, Yun Zheng smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm off topic again." I'll go back to the quartermaster. "

The confirmation of the soldier's military merit is also a matter of great concern to Sun Chengzong, who is longer in the army, so he doesn't care about what Yun Zheng said about the off-topic, and without waiting for Emperor Chongzhen to speak, he first raised his voice: "It's okay, you can say it." "

"That...... I haven't figured it out yet!".

Sun Chengzong and Wen Tiren looked at each other, what, I didn't think about it....

This, this is the imperial front, you didn't think about it and said it, this is the king's dereliction of honor, and you want to condemn it.

I didn't think about this time, Emperor Chongzhen at the top laughed, and then said: "Mr. Yun, fortunately, it is not a big court discussion now, otherwise the people of Honglu Temple want to embarrass you, and I will not be able to speak if you lose your honor in front of the emperor." "

Sun Chengzong and Wen Tiren are not pedantic people, seeing that Yun Zheng is so young and has such talent, if he is offended because of this little thing, it is obviously not the intention of caring for talents.

Now seeing that Emperor Chongzhen obviously meant to protect Yun Zheng, he didn't hear Yun Zheng speak just now.
