The ten characters of Douda fell on the rice paper.
The eyes of Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu Di, and Zhu Laosi, the emperor and the princes, were all fixed on the ten dancing words, their brows furrowed and thinking, as if they contained a power that was difficult for them to see through.
"Master Immortal, does this sentence mean to inspire the patriotism of the soldiers?"
"No, reject brainwashing and reject PUA."
'PUA? '
These emperors and princes were all stunned, what did this mean?
Ji Boying glanced at Emperor Hong Xi who said this. The fat man looked honest and somewhat cute, and he liked to do this anyway.
PUA cakes are the source of all evil and are a devastation to human nature.
"The spirit of scarcity can only last for one generation, and it is not even as good as the military garrison system."
Looking past the group of emperors and princes who looked puzzled, Ji Boying took a deep breath.
Although he is not from the history department, he has been very fond of history since he could read. From Xia, Shang and Zhou to Tang, Song and Ming, from official history to unofficial history, he has dabbled in all dynasties.
From the history books, no matter which dynasty it was, as long as it involved the military system, Ji Boying would frown.
In Ji Boying's view, the army should not be a sword in the hands of the dynasty, but the patron saint who protects the dynasty.
"First of all, I want to explain one thing about the national faith I am talking about here."
"You can take it literally. The country's faith does not refer to the faith of the soldiers in the country, but the faith of the country in the soldiers. This must not be reversed."
"People say that only when there is a country, there is a family, but that is for the common people. For the army, only when there is an army, there is a country. A country without a strong army has no sovereignty at all. A country without sovereignty has no sovereignty. Can we call it a country?!"
"Especially you, you must understand one thing clearly. It is not the soldiers who rely on the country, but the country that relies on the soldiers."
"Therefore, there is only one thing we have to do, from top to bottom, establish the country's faith in the soldiers, and use the country's faith in the soldiers to breed the iron-blooded military soul of your Ming Dynasty."
The words fell.
Everyone was shocked.
'It is not that the soldiers depend on the country, but that the country relies on the soldiers. '
'The country's faith in its soldiers gave birth to the iron-blooded military soul of the Ming Dynasty. '
These two sentences completely overturned their previous inherent understanding of the army, and they remained in the hearts of Lao Zhu and others for a long time.
But Lao Zhu can actually understand it best, because he first had an army and then a country.
The first person to respond from the theory was Zhu Biao.
"Master Immortal, how can we establish the country's faith in its soldiers and create an iron-blooded military spirit unique to the Ming Dynasty?"
"And how to equip the corresponding physical military system to ensure the strong combat power of the army within the maximum time limit."
A Biao's question made everyone present hold their breath and concentrate, for fear of missing any word Ji Boying said.
"Listen carefully, I will only say the next key points once."
Ji Boying stood on the podium with his hands behind his hands, looking in all directions.
"The first point is to abolish the military household system and loosen the shackles on the hearts of soldiers; the second point is to greatly improve the social status of military personnel at the national level, such as abolishing military confinement in criminal law, so that the military becomes a lifelong career that young adults aspire to; the third point is to , Strictly select the sources of troops, and all those who join the army must be sons of three generations of good families; the fourth point is to establish a large number of specialized military academies across the country to train professional soldiers; the fifth point is to strictly enforce military discipline and law, whether in the station or in daily activities. There is a complete separation between the military and civilians, and those who offend the civilians will be severely punished."
"As for the military system."
"First, the simplest and most direct recruitment system can be used as a source of troops in the initial stage. When the martial arts trend takes shape in the country and the military becomes a socially respected profession, it can be changed to a military service system."
"Second, establish several military regions across the country, and separate the top decision-making level of each military region from the power to command troops and the power to recommend promotions."
"Third, the training of the army belongs to the respective military regions. The power of command during wartime, the power of promotion and deployment of soldiers, and the power of allocating military supplies and supplies all belong to the imperial court. The top decision-making level of each military region is transferred once every three years."
"Fourth, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, the enlistment period of ordinary soldiers is limited. This period can be determined by you. It is recommended to set it at five to ten years."
"Fifth, the state shall bear all daily training expenses of the army, and provide sergeants with a salary sufficient to support a family, so that soldiers can train in the army with peace of mind."
"The fifth point is important to mention. Before you implement the military reform, you must wait until the national treasury is extremely abundant. In other words, you must wait until you return from conquering Japan and have a large amount of silver in your hands, and the court is no longer short of money."
Speak very quickly.
After Ji Boying finished speaking, these emperors and princes were in a daze. Many of the measures involved were unheard of and completely out of bounds.
Except for the last sentence, which states that military reforms must be implemented only when the national treasury is sufficient, I didn’t remember much else.
"If you don't understand, go back and digest it slowly."
"In addition, everything I just said is just basic logic. After you go back, you must make adjustments based on your current situation and develop a military system that best suits you."
"Furthermore, even if the national treasury is abundant, you should not be impatient when changing the military system, especially the later dynasties. This must be a process that lasts for several years or even ten years."
When he said this, he especially glanced at Emperor Hongxi and Emperor Xuande.
After saying this, Ji Boying waved his hand.
"This is the end of the first observation practice class."
"Before get out of class ends, let me preview the content of the next two classes."
Picking up the pen, Ji Boying folded his body and wrote two lines on the rice paper.
"How silver is used and why a dynasty's finances collapse"
"Looking at history from the perspective of morality - a Ming war god who was tried hard to discredit by civil servants"
Originally, according to Ji Boying's order, the second practical observation class should first explore the private life of Emperor Chenghua, but since we have already met Jiajing, a flashback would have a different flavor.
Regardless of the expressions on the faces of these emperors and princes, Ji Boying walked down from the podium, climbed up the mahogany stairs, and returned to the private room on the top of the pavilion.
Today's class was really tiring, going back and forth.
After a long time, the group of emperors and princes sitting in their seats finally calmed down, and everyone took a few deep breaths.
"The Immortal Master just spoke too quickly, and I only remembered a small part of it. What should I do?"
Hong Xi said with a sad look on his fat face.
Old Zhu Di, Old Zhu, and A Biao also frowned, obviously they did not remember it completely.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my master has already considered this. Sister Lianxiang is already copying this part quickly and will hand it over to you later."
After Xiyu said this, the emperors realized that Lianxiang, who was responsible for delivering the pen, had been writing hard.
"So good!"
Zhu Biao took a long breath. He was mentally prepared and planned to go upstairs to find the immortal master to open a small stove for him. As a model of learning, he felt that he should have this privilege.
Others also looked happy and stood up, ready to leave.
"The master has an order, please finish copying the biography and practice records before leaving~"
Xiyu stopped with a smile.
All of a sudden, the emperor and the princes were stunned, and their faces became a little ugly.
They (except Zhu Gaochi) would rather go out and run three thousand meters than sit here and copy books.
"Ah, yes, I almost forgot about this. Listen to us. After you finish copying the book that brother gave you, we will watch it here. If anyone dares to miss a word, I will give it to you with a stick."
Lao Zhu picked up the mace in one hand and instantly became a violent copying supervisor.
Everyone gritted their teeth and sat back down. They could only pick up their pens and continue copying.
Lao Zhu was holding a mace in one hand and a cup of tea in the other. After wandering for a few steps, he walked to the rice paper panel and looked at the four words "God of War of the Ming Dynasty" on it.
"It's the God of War again."
"Biao'er, what do you think is the difference between this God of War and Zhu Qizhen?"
The only ones exempted from copying were Lao Zhu and A Biao. The two father and son stood in front of the rice paper panel on the podium and frowned as they looked at the line "A Ming God of War who was tried hard to discredit by civil servants".
In Lao Zhu's view, the Ming Dynasty was already in trouble if there was such a Ming War God like Zhu Qizhen. The fate of the country was cut in half, the imperial capital was besieged by foreign tribes, and the country was almost wiped out.
If this happened again, wouldn't it mean that the country would be destroyed directly?
"Go back to my father, the child doesn't know."
"But it will be revealed naturally when classes start tomorrow, so don't worry."
Lao Zhu nodded.
"Well, we'll find out tomorrow."
Lao Zhu is full of expectations for tomorrow.
At this time, there is an elegant room on the top of the pavilion.
Ji Boying sat at the tea table on the eaves of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the Qinhuai River with people coming and going, with a calm expression.
History books list Hongwu as one of the prosperous times. From Ji Boying's perspective, even if Hongwu under Lao Zhu's governance is not as good as Zhenguan, there is absolutely no problem for the people to live and work in peace and contentment.
In ancient times, living and working in peace and contentment was already the standard of prosperity.
Most of the military system just mentioned to Lao Zhu and others downstairs was Ji Boying's own logical deduction from theory based on the experience of later generations. He was not sure how effective it would be after implementation.
All we can say is that all outcomes depend on how Guo Zuo changes.
However, the formulation and implementation of systems such as the military system and clan titles will take a certain amount of time. Although the system will automatically predict the country, the premise is that this system has been successfully implemented systematically.
For example, if you have an AI system, this AI system can help you automatically run your product and know in advance whether the product will work or not, but the prerequisite is that you must enter the code of the product first.
At this moment, the virtual screen in front of him automatically appeared.
"Latest update package detected"
"Whether to update"
"whether"
In the last update, three more functions were added.
First, the time for traveling with people has been extended from one hour to one day. This is also the main reason why today's class can last so long.
The second is to add the function of carrying the emperor's attendants. Zhu Biao did not sit on the throne in history, so he was able to travel through time because of this.
The third is to provide a protection mechanism for the host, that is, divine punishment and thunder punishment.
"renew"
Without hesitation, Ji Boying chose to update.
The update method is basically the same as the last time. A large series of silver codes flashed across the light screen in front of me, as if it was downloading an update package from a mysterious time and space.
It’s just that the update time this time is a little longer than the last time.
The last time it ended in about five minutes, but this time it lasted for more than ten minutes. Ji Boying had burned three or four cigarettes in his hand, and the update was not completely over yet.
'Is the update package so big? '
'New features won't kill you, right? '
Drinking tea and thinking randomly.
"Update completed"
When the text on the light screen stayed for three seconds and disappeared, all the updated content was instantly clear and understood instantly.
But Ji Boying's brows frowned slightly.
This update contains a lot of content, most of which fix various bugs.
For example, the problem of precise positioning through time and space has been fixed, and the problem of the thunder intensity of the Thunder Punishment has been fixed. A new intensity control function has been added to the Thunder Punishment.
And the most important thing is two brand new functions.
First, time accelerates.
For example, if Ji Boying is willing, he can make ten years of Hongwu time and space pass in one second.
To put it bluntly, this function gives Ji Boying the ability to travel through time.
However, this time can only go forward, not backward.
As the old man's general theory of relativity shows, within the same space and time, it is possible to travel backward in time, but not forward.
And there is another rule, that is, it can only accelerate in the current direction of the time and space it belongs to.
For example, Hongwu time and space can only be accelerated to the thirty-first year of Hongwu at most, but cannot be accelerated to the next dynasty.
Second, holographic projection of world history.
After this function is turned on.
For example, when we just talked about the bravery of the Qin army, you can play a scene of the Qin army killing people and feel what it means to be truly immersive in 36D.
'No wonder it took so long to update. I spent all my time loading resource packs, world history, which must have cost hundreds of T's anyway. '
'Um…'
'I wonder if the scenes of future generations of island country teachers working hard to make movies can be shown...'
'Forget it, forget it, I'll be banned later. '
Ji Boying gave up such dirty thoughts in his mind, and in his thoughts, he locked onto the five time-spaces of Hongwu, Jianwen, Yongle, Hongxi, and Xuande, and five progress bars suddenly appeared on the time screen.
After thinking for a moment, Ji Boying slid all five time spaces back half a year.
These five time and space are all preparing to conquer Japan. If everything goes well, it will only take half a year to complete.
'Um? '
'That's it? '
After half a year of back skating, Ji Boying frowned slightly. He himself did not feel any obvious changes. The previous second was seamlessly connected to the next, without any difference.
'wrong. '
'The tea cup is gone, and so is the cigarette butt. '
'The willows by the river have also changed. '
'This weather is very hot. '
Ji Boying observed a little and glanced out the window. He could clearly see the difference, especially the big sun in the sky. It was obviously not the warm sun in winter, but the scorching light of summer.
In Hongwu time and space, summer has entered.
'The furnishings in the house have not changed much. On the contrary, they are much cleaner and spotless than before. '
"Xiyu, His Royal Highness is here again."
"You go down first and serve tea to His Highness the Crown Prince. I will come back after cleaning the master's room."
Outside the door, a sympathetic voice came.
Eee~
The door opened.
Lianxiang walked into the pavilion calmly, holding the cleaning tools as usual.
Following the habit she had developed over more than a hundred days, she planned to start cleaning from the window.
After taking two steps, he subconsciously looked up and happened to see Ji Boying standing up by the window.
The whole person froze on the spot for a moment, and a pair of water-like eyes suddenly filled his eyes.
"Master, master...master~!"
Lianxiang's face flushed with excitement, she ran forward almost at a trot, and threw herself into Ji Boying's arms.
For Ji Boying, this was just a casual half-year, but for Lianxiang, it was a lonely half-year. An acre of newly cultivated land could not be fertilized or watered for a long time.
"It's much bigger."
Feeling it, Ji Boying smiled and patted Lianxiang on the back.
Lianxiang wiped away her tears and then realized her disgrace. She quickly stepped back and saluted Ji Boying respectfully.
"Master~"
"His Royal Highness is waiting for you in the main hall."
"In the past six months, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come every three days, while His Royal Highness King Yan has been irregular. Sometimes he comes once every half month, sometimes three times a day. Your Majesty also comes often, but the Queen is not in good health recently. Your Majesty The frequency of coming is less.”
Listening to Lianxiang's words, Ji Boying was a little dazed.
After all, it only took a second for him.
"Um."
nodded.
Ji Boying strolled out. When he walked out of the room and went down the mahogany stairs, he saw Zhu Biao standing blankly in the main hall.
His Royal Highness, Crown Prince Hongwu, looked a lot haggard. He was probably having a heart attack every day. He didn't take his previous words to heart at all.
Then, his eyes swept across the main teaching hall.
After half a year, the main hall looks unchanged from half a year ago. The desks are still the same, the bells and tripods are still the same, and even the podium is clean and tidy.
It's just that the rice paper hanging on the panel is slightly yellowed. To Ji Boying, the two lines of words he wrote on it more than ten minutes ago are already a bit faded.
"It's been half a year, exactly half a year..."
"Master Immortal, you said that the next lesson will teach us how to use silver."
"But now the Japanese country has been conquered, and our soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have captured the four-island silver mine group you mentioned."
"The first batch of silver is already on its way back to the country. My father has decided to flow this batch of silver directly into the private sector. No matter how hard I try, it's useless."
"According to the inflation you mentioned earlier, with so much silver pouring in, silver will no longer be valuable."
“But if so much silver doesn’t flow into the public, how can it be spent?!
Ji Boying walked down calmly. Although there were footsteps, Zhu Biao, who was already immersed in his own world at the moment, obviously did not hear it.
"I don't even know how to spend money. Don't tell anyone that you are my student when you go out."
A light word.
Zhu Biao, who was still immersed in his own world, was suddenly startled, his body trembled violently, and he slowly turned his head.
The moment he saw it was Ji Boying, tears burst into his eyes. His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of the Hongwu Dynasty, knelt down in front of Ji Boying with a bang.
"Welcome to the return of Immortal Master Xianyou!"
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Biao, sighed helplessly, and walked up to the podium.
He originally wanted to rest for a day, but he only rested for ten minutes despite his full schedule. Even Hongwu Abiao was like this, and he probably had to rush out of water in other time and space.
After all, Hongwu Abiao can still come to Zuixian Tower to have a look, but there is no place to worry in other time and space.
"Reixiang, ring the bell."
Take a seat on the Taishi chair.
Lianxiang, who followed, wiped the remaining tears of excitement from the corners of her eyes, picked up the small silver hammer, and struck the big clock gently.
After half a year, this rich but clear bell sounded again, blending into the void, breaking through the barriers, and stirring the nine silver bells in other time and space.
