After all, He Zhang underestimated the seriousness of Zhan Bingxin's problems.
Before that, although He Zhang had also heard some information about the new Zhan Bing Army from Zhang Cheng and Zhao Junchen, Zhang Cheng even summarized in detail several issues that the new Zhan Bing Army needed to solve.
However, He Zhang believes that Zhanbing New Army currently has two "famous generals in the world" in charge, so no matter how many and big the Zhanbing New Army's problems are, there must have been signs of improvement, and he took over Zhanbing New Army. After that, it will be somewhat easier!
I want to ask who are the two "famous generals in the world" in He Zhang's eyes? Naturally, they are Hong Gaogong, a member of Jinyiwei Qianhu, and Mao Jiadong, a member of Jinyiwei Baihu! The two of them are currently in charge of the temporary command of the new warrior army.
The official document issued by the Governor's Palace also detailed the record of Zhao Junchen leading more than 500 guards to repel the sneak attack of more than 3,000 Mongolian troops! This is an unprecedented victory! In the list of merit-based awards after the war, Imperial Envoy Zhao Junchen and Shaanxi Governor Zhang Shengde naturally ranked as the top two, while Jin Yiwei Qianhu Hong Gaogong ranked third, and he was also the first among military generals. , as for Mao Jiadong, one of the hundred Jinyiwei households, ranked fourth and the second among the generals!
According to He Zhang's thinking, although Zhao Junchen and Zhang Shengde were among the top two in military merit, they were only civil servants after all. They may have played a decisive role in commanding and boosting morale during the war, but this victory was ultimately a victory. It was the generals who led the troops to fight! Therefore, compared with Zhao Junchen and Zhang Shengde, Hong Gaogong and Mao Jiadong are obviously the real heroes of this victory!
Being able to lead more than 500 guards to repel several times the number of Mongolian cavalry, behead more than 600 people, and capture more than 80 people, this is a record that even He Zhang has never achieved!
Therefore, He Zhang believes that Hong Gaogong and Mao Jiadong must be outstanding in leading troops in combat. After this victory is widely known to the world, there is nothing wrong with calling them "famous generals in the world"!
However, after arriving at the training ground and seeing the training conditions of the new soldiers, He Zhang discovered that the situation of the new soldiers was much more serious than he had imagined. The two "famous generals" in his eyes had not improved at all. question.
He Zhang was a veteran on the battlefield. He just watched for a moment and found out many problems with the new soldiers during the training.
In short, although the training ground was bustling with activity and the soldiers were diligent during the drills, there was no organization or discipline at all!
There are many soldiers laughing and joking while practicing, many soldiers blatantly being lazy and slipping, and even many soldiers sitting lazily in the corner of the training ground chatting with each other. From time to time, there will be a burst of laughter from somewhere in the training ground. came.
At the same time, the training ground was clearly divided into different areas, and the soldiers from different military towns were also distinct. They only practiced on their own in their respective areas without any cooperation or communication with each other.
What's more serious is that He Zhang only watched for a quarter of an hour and saw three bullying incidents of bullying the weak and relying on the strong to bully the weak. He also witnessed with his own eyes the conflict between the two teams of soldiers for some unknown reason and almost caused a fatal accident. A group fight...
There is no organization or discipline...
There is no officer to control...
There hasn’t been any effective battle formation drill…
There is not even any clear training goal...
In short, it’s a mess!
It's more of a child's play than a drill!
Where is the strong army assembled by the elite of the Shaanxi-Gansu border army? He Zhang had only seen such chaotic scenes in the army composed of newly recruited recruits. However, the recruits were quite honest after all and would not violate military regulations easily. How could they be as greasy as these veterans in front of him? Are the kids generally unscrupulous?
The only thing that makes He Zhang feel gratified is that all the soldiers on the training ground are strong and tough. Because of Zhao Junchen's mobilization and brainwashing during this period, everyone has a strong fighting spirit, and there is no sign of anything. If it is a single round of malaise, the strength of most of the soldiers of the new warrior army is not inferior to that of He Zhang's private soldiers, but if the two sides fight against each other, He Zhang absolutely believes that the two hundred private soldiers under his command can Easily defeat the same number of new soldiers in a cup of tea!
Therefore, the more he watched the training of the new soldiers, the more He Zhang frowned.
After watching for about a quarter of an hour, He Zhang finally couldn't help but asked Zhang Cheng beside him, "Is this, is this the new army of warriors?"
Zhang Cheng nodded with a wry smile and said: "General He read it right, these people are the soldiers of the new fighting army!"
He Zhang rarely sighed and complained, but this time he couldn't help but sigh: "There is a lack of organizational discipline, no integration, no officer control, and clear factions... The various issues mentioned by Zhang Baihu in the Governor's Mansion, I’ve seen it all! It’s even more serious than I imagined… How easy is it to get this army into combat strength within ten days? The Imperial Envoy has really given me a huge problem.”
Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly again and shook his head silently, but Liu Manniu said: "The Imperial Envoy has his own plans. No matter how difficult it is, we must complete everything, otherwise the Imperial Envoy's hard work will be ruined. layout."
He Zhang was a little confused and asked: "I heard that Hong Gaogong, a member of the Jinyiwei Qianhu, and Mao Jiadong, a member of the Jinyiwei Baihe, have been in charge of training the new war army during this period... At the beginning, under the command of Mr. Zhao, these two military attaches They only led five to six hundred guards and defeated three to five thousand Mongolian cavalry. I originally thought they would have some skills, but I didn't expect that they had not made any achievements in the past few days! I really don't know how they managed to do so with so few Is it just a fluke to win many and achieve great success?”
This time, both Zhang Cheng and Liu Manniu remained silent. On the contrary, after a moment of hesitation, Li Pi approached He Zhang and said softly: "General He, I have inquired privately with the comrades who participated in the war... In that battle, the reason why the Imperial Envoy was able to defeat several times the Mongolian cavalry with five to six hundred guards was that, in addition to the Imperial Envoy's command and leadership, the biggest reason was that Mao Jiadong, a hundred-household Jin Yiwei, had correct tactics and also led the cavalry to guerrilla This method restrained the main force of the Mongols. In addition, Zhao Dali, the leader of the imperial envoy's bodyguard, led the troops to kill, and it was difficult for thousands of people to defeat them... During this period, there was no trace of Hong Gaogong, a thousand households of Jinyiwei. Most of the time, Hong Gaogong Just hiding in the rear, not even killing an enemy, he is simply a burden..."
He Zhang frowned after hearing what Li Pi said.
Li Pi continued: "However, when it came time to discuss merits after the war, Hong Gaogong stayed close to the imperial envoy, flattering, flattering, and trying every means to get credit...and Mr. Zhao finally ranked him third on the list of merit requests. position is only because his official position is higher, and his uncle is Hong Jin, the commander of the Jinyi Guards! In fact, this man is only a second-generation ancestor and does not have much ability! As for Mao Baihu, who takes the most credit, on the contrary He is listed below this person! And Mr. Zhao’s personal guard Zhao Dali is said to have been a deserter and has a poor foundation. He is only ranked ninth on the merit list..."
When Zhang Cheng saw Li Pi telling He Zhang the secret, he also sighed and said: "After the formation of the new warrior army, the imperial envoy originally planned to let the more capable Mao Baihu be responsible for the training of the new warrior army, but Mao Baihu's military position was not high and it was difficult to convince the public, so he made Hong Qianhu the leader and Mao Baihu the assistant! However, since the war ended, Hong Qianhu believed that Mao Baihu had threatened his status, and Mao Baihu had Baihu believed that Hong Qianhu had robbed them of their military glory, and they did not deal with each other. Although Mao Baihu was more capable, he was often secretly suppressed by Hong Qianhu, but Hong Qianhu himself did not have the ability to train a strong army. , so the running-in progress of the new warrior army has slowed down, or even made no progress at all!"
As he spoke, Zhang Cheng showed dissatisfaction and obviously disdained Hong Gaogong's various actions.
He Zhang's brows furrowed even more - when he was in Guyuan Military Town, he was repeatedly robbed of his military honors and suffered deeply, so He Zhang also hated Hong Gaogong and felt the same for Mao Jiadong's situation - and Asked: "Does the imperial envoy Zhao not care about Hong Gaogong's various actions?"
Zhang Cheng hesitated for a moment and explained: "Actually, Mr. Zhao thinks that neither Hong Qianhu nor Mao Baihu has the ability to command the new army. Hong Qianhu won't say anything, but he just relied on his ancestor Yu Yin to take over. For the position of Jinyiwei Qianhu, Mao Baihu not only has a low military rank and is difficult to convince the crowd, but it is also said that he does not have a serious background. He has not read many military books and has no experience in commanding large armies. Moreover, he is only good at cavalry tactics. But he is not very good at infantry drills... It is precisely because of this that the Imperial Envoy invited General He to take charge of the new army... Regarding the conflict between Hong Qianhu and Mao Baihu, the Imperial Envoy's attitude has always been impartial, The two did not want to help, so they just let Mao Baihu be responsible for the training of the cavalry in the new army, while Hong Qianhu was responsible for the training of the infantry... Today, Mao Baihu is leading more than two thousand cavalry outside the Huamachi Camp. Training is not within the camp."
Li Pi smiled and said: "Based on his humble position, the Imperial Envoy's impartiality and non-compliance are actually an attitude! After all, Hong Gaogong comes from a wealthy family and has a higher official position, and his backer is still the commander of the Imperial Guard. The Imperial Envoy But he had no intention of supporting Hong Gaogong. This in itself was support for Mao Baihu. Afterwards, Mao Baihu was allowed to be responsible for the cavalry training alone, which also freed Mao Baihu from the constraints of Hong Qianhu... As of today, General He After arriving at the Huamachi Camp, the Imperial Envoy directly stated his attitude. Hong Qianhu will no longer be responsible for the war soldiers, while Mao Baihu will continue to stay in the new war soldiers to assist you... This is obviously The imperial envoy is very dissatisfied with Hong Qianhu, but he is wary of Jin Yiwei’s attitude, so he didn’t break out!”
He Zhang nodded slightly and said, "That's it!"
No wonder Li Pi dared to tell He Zhang secrets, or even directly expressed his ignorance of Hong Gaogong, without fear of offending Hong Gaogong, the second generation ancestor with a profound background. It turned out that Li Pi had already guessed Zhao Junchen's attitude!
Li Pi is not as calm and brave as Liu Manniu, nor is he as versatile as Zhang Cheng, but he is better at discerning people's hearts and knows the way forward and retreat, but he is not blindly cunning.
Thinking of this, He Zhang's face became solemn, and he suddenly ordered to the soldiers behind him: "Send an order to the two hundred personal guards under this general, and ask them to get here as soon as possible. Remember to keep the soldiers in order and prepare them to fight with friendly forces. Preparation for the competition! In addition, after sending people to the Huamachi camp, in the name of the general leading the new army of warriors, Mao Baihu and his cavalry were recalled to the camp, saying that this general was going to lecture them! "
After saying that, He Zhang walked towards the training ground with a cold face.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Cheng, Liu Manniu, and Li Pi looked at each other and knew that He Zhang was going to go crazy. Naturally, they did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed him!
