The instructors of the Ming Army laughed and told the story of how they went from bankruptcy to wandering and were about to starve to death but were rescued by the Ming Army. They also told the story of their growth from an ignorant and confused waste to a determined warrior and revolutionary.
The top soldiers of the Song Army were fascinated by these stories. They were yearning for and interested in these stories and had many questions.
For example, they don’t know what revolution is, and they don’t know what liberation and oppression are.
The instructors carefully told them what revolution was, what liberation and oppression were, why they went bankrupt, why they didn't have enough to eat, and why they were reduced to this.
They were all originally property-owning farmers or handicraft practitioners who set up businesses. Why did they go bankrupt? Is it just because of natural disasters and bad luck?
No, it is mainly a man-made disaster.
It is caused by the oppression and exploitation of the superior people, gentlemen.
The officers at all levels who were drinking and playing with women in Hangzhou did not realize that the top soldiers under their command were being baptized by revolutionary ideas. They did not know that these Ming army instructors were not just here to teach military skills.
They talked to the soldiers about turning over, revolution, the treatment of farmers in the Ming Dynasty, the treatment of military personnel, the daily treatment of the army and military rules and regulations, Su Yonglin's ideas, and what the founders of the Ming Dynasty did back then. Revolutionary in Shandong.
They were selfless and very strict in training, and they tortured the Song soldiers to death.
But when communicating in private, he is gentle and approachable, has no airs, talks about everything, and talks about everything.
The Song Army gave special food treatment to the Ming Kingdom instructors, but the Ming Kingdom instructors often took their special food treatment and shared it with the Song Army soldiers they trained. If they had meat, they would eat with them, and if they had vegetables, they would Eat with them.
Everyone eats squatting together, or sitting cross-legged on the floor, chatting and laughing while eating.
The top soldiers of the Song Army also changed quickly.
From the beginning, their fear, wariness, worry and disgust towards the Ming Army instructors gradually changed. They were full of good impressions of the Ming Army instructors and were convinced of the Ming Army instructors' method of distinguishing between public and private matters.
They gradually regarded the Ming army instructors as their superiors.
Compared with their actual superiors, they were more willing to obey the guidance and orders of Ming army instructors. They had no sense of resistance in their hearts, but felt that this was a matter of course.
When they treated the Ming Army instructors, they didn't feel the superficial obedience and inner hatred and fear that they had towards the Song Army officers. They simply respected and yearned for them.
After this feeling gradually became mainstream, many top soldiers clearly felt a strange sense of separation.
When I got along with the Ming army instructors, although the training was strict, the instructors never used lynching to punish the soldiers. They had a set of standard punishment regulations. All punishments were fair, just and open, and were carried out openly in front of everyone. They would never condone or punish the soldiers. Cross the line.
This is true in official business, but in private, the instructors appear to be affable, so when the soldiers get along with the instructors, they will feel unprecedented relaxation and warmth.
However, when their fat-minded commander came back from Hangzhou, he would give them a great sense of oppression and fear.
After the officer returned, the relaxation and warmth disappeared, leaving only a terrifying sense of oppression.
It would be better if the chief came back drunk and fell asleep, because everyone wouldn't be very scared.
It would be better if the chief was not drunk or half-drunk, but not obviously angry. He would just say a few words and not touch anyone.
It would be the worst if the commander came back angry.
The superiors will definitely beat and scold these big-headed soldiers at will, using them as sandbags to vent their dissatisfaction. Beating and scolding is considered civilized, and it is not strange to chop with a knife. All kinds of torture can be regarded as daily appetizers. .
Therefore, the feeling of getting along with the instructors and getting along with the superiors has created an increasingly strong sense of separation in the hearts of the soldiers. Faced with the combination of the brutality of the superiors and the leniency of the instructors, the soldiers do not even need to make a choice. Just vote with your feet.
Instructor, okay.
Not good, sir.
Simple distinction, easy to understand.
Finally, some of the top soldiers who could not bear the torture could not stand it anymore and went to the instructors in groups to complain, telling the instructors about the unfair treatment they had suffered, and begging the Mingguo instructors to help them and get them out of the sea of suffering.
The duties of the Ming Dynasty instructors were basically to train soldiers and teach military training tactics, etc., and did not involve the daily management of the army.
Therefore, after the lecture, the Ming Army instructors would return to the Ming Army barracks, or live in a separate instructor barracks, and would not interfere with what the Song Army officers were doing.
So at the beginning, the instructors were helpless when the soldiers came to cry and plead, expressing their helplessness that they could only try their best to persuade but could not actually interfere in the internal affairs of the Song Army.
The big-headed soldiers felt very painful about this. They even expressed privately to the instructor more than once that they very much wanted to become the Ming army instead of continuing to work for their superiors as the Song army.
If they had not seen the treatment of the Ming army and had not experienced dealing with the instructors of the Ming army, they might not have such "rebellious" thoughts, and they might continue to be honest soldiers and the personal slaves of their superiors. .
But once they felt the atmosphere inside the Ming army and experienced some of the treatment of the Ming army, they could no longer go back to the past state of being in a state of confusion and waiting for death.
The feeling is the same as being stuck in a mire, knowing that you are going to be swallowed by the mire but being unable to do anything.
The feeling of dying suddenly is completely different from the feeling of knowing that you are going to die but being unable to do anything but waiting to die.
The feeling of the soldiers of the Song Army was that of knowing they were going to die but being unable to do anything but wait for death.
This makes them feel suffocated.
As time went by, more and more top soldiers felt strongly dissatisfied with the rough and cruel behavior of their officers, and this strong dissatisfaction continued to grow as time went by.
At the right time, the Ming Army instructors finally stood up.
Faced with the perverse behavior and cruelty of the Song Army officers, they clearly expressed their dissatisfaction and anger, and publicly stood up to protect the soldiers who were beaten and scolded by the officers for no reason during training.
The showdown between instructors and officers seemed to begin from this moment.
However, the Song Army officers, who were fierce in appearance and soft in heart, did not dare to do anything to the Ming Army instructors.
Although they were very unwilling to lose face, so they confronted the Ming Army instructors tit for tat in front of the soldiers. However, when the Ming Army instructors expressed their intention to lodge a strong protest with their superiors, these officers without exception softened and could no longer handle it. Be tough.
Fundamentally, they are not independent.
The reason why they are not independent is that Jiangnan Kingdom is not independent either.
In terms of national character, they are weak and a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, in the face of the protests raised by the military officers of the Shang Dynasty, they were afraid of causing a diplomatic incident and "surprised their allies", thus affecting their own future, so they could only swallow their anger, say a harsh word and leave angrily.
Of course, they still couldn't get away with it in terms of face, so they still had to insist on maintaining their authority, and they would choose to punish and beat the soldiers who agreed with the instructors in places where the instructors could not see them.
If I can't deal with the people of Ming Dynasty, I can't deal with you?
However, these things were quickly noticed by the Mingguo instructors, and they once again lodged a stern protest with them. They also brought the injured soldiers to the instructors' camp for treatment and publicly sheltered the soldiers.
The instructors sternly warned them that if they did this again, they would lodge a stern protest with their superiors.
There is no doubt that this makes sense.
