Chapter 2512: Gui Zijuan works step by step and advanc

Chapter 2512 Gui Zijuan is advancing step by step.

 Feng Ziying couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

 The changes are really quite big.

Does Busia Mara really have some skills in training people, or is this Zhezhe actually a dormant queen who has been inspired to have great ambitions?

"I really can't tell..." Feng Ziying smiled and shook her head subconsciously, "Is this a release of nature, or are you deliberately letting Busia Mara do this?"

"Ziying, are you so underestimating Zhezhe? She is the flower of Horqin after all. She has been pampered and pampered for more than ten years. Do you really think that she is an ordinary woman in the grassland?" Bushiya Mara raised her thick eyebrows, "Born with a noble life, raised in Saint’s family, that’s not just talk.”

Feng Ziying pursed her lips and nodded, her gaze returned to Zhezhe who was still looking at her calmly and generously, "Zhezhe, if I let you go back now, are you willing?"

Zhezhe seemed not surprised at all by Feng Ziying's suggestion, or was not moved at all. He shook his head decisively: "Zhezhe has never considered going back. Although his hometown is beautiful and nostalgic, there is a saying among the Han people that people should look forward, and Don’t dwell on the old dreams of the past.”

 It seems that she is relying on herself, but Feng Ziying doesn't care.

Horqin is now firmly controlled by Zaisai. It can be said that the people who care most about Horqin are the people of Inner Khalkha, so there is no need to worry too much.

But as Busia Mara said, it is impossible for Zhezhe to be released now. Firstly, it will arouse unnecessary suspicion from Zaisai, and secondly, it will not be conducive to the future competition for Horqin in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

 Now the Zhou Dynasty and the Inner Khalkha people have formed an alliance to deal with the Jurchens in Jianzhou, but what about three to five years later? What about ten years later?

Once the threat of the Jianzhou Jurchens is eliminated, the Inner Khalkha people, who are ambitious to annex various Mongolian tribes and become the overlords of the grasslands, may be the next Jianzhou Jurchens.

Even the Yehe tribe is not willing to have a strong rise of the Inner Khalkha people who are becoming more and more powerful. They are no different from the Jianzhou Jurchens. Once their wings are full, they will make a living by annexing surrounding tribes.

For the Yehe tribe where Busiyamala is located, they can accept the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty, because the Central Plains Dynasty has been Zhengshuo since ancient times, but they cannot accept the rule of other tribes who are also border tribes. That means leading to the complete destruction of his own tribe.

"I understand." After thinking for a while, Feng Ziying said no more. For him, such things are no longer worth worrying about.

 …

Looking at the woman with tears in her eyes falling asleep, Feng Ziying got out of bed, covered her with the quilt, and couldn't help but sigh.

Even though I had been mentally prepared for it, it was a bit uncomfortable to poison a girl who had just turned fourteen without any hindrance.

"Why, are you still feeling pity for her?" Busia Mara, who was standing at the other end of the corridor, motioned to the girls to put on Feng Ziying's clothes so as not to catch the cold. She walked over with a calm expression: "Zhezhe has been mentally prepared for this for a long time. , You don’t have to be uncomfortable with it, there are many women who get married at the age of twelve or thirteen on the grassland. Didn’t my aunt Meng Guzhezhe marry Nurhachi at the age of thirteen?"

Feng Ziying put on her clothes, but did not go close to Bushiya Mara's house. Instead, she felt the coolness of February in the north.

"Well, your aunt Meng Guzhezhe passed away several years ago, right? But your cousin Huang Taiji is quite favored in front of Nurhachi. Chu Ying is left out, and there is no hope of succeeding Nurhaci in the future. Now only Daishanhe is left Huang Taiji has the best competitiveness. It is not surprising that Mang Gurtai and Abatai are ignorant of current affairs. It is difficult for them to pose a threat to Daishan and Huang Taiji. From my point of view, if Da Zhou does not intervene, your cousin is really possible. He's taking over the throne."

Bushiya Mara sneered, "Can he wait until he takes over the throne? Even if he takes over the throne, will he be open to us, the Haixi Jurchen Network? In the battle of Tieling, Jianzhou seems to have won. , but in fact the gain outweighs the loss. Of course, if Zhou wants to let Jianzhou survive for a few years, I have nothing to say, but Ziying, will you let Jianzhou Jurchen recover?"

Feng Ziying laughed and said, "Of course not. Dongjiang Town is already being established, and something will be done by August or September this year at the latest."

Bushiya Mara's face softened a little: "I thought you, the Great Zhou Dynasty, were really indifferent, just passively being beaten. Last year, you had the hidden danger of Jiangnan, so let's not talk about it. Now that Jiangnan has been pacified, your father's northwest army has 100,000 soldiers. The army is idle, the Denglai army has been reorganized, and now Dongjiang Town is still being established. What are you doing with so many troops? If you don't solve the Jurchen scourge in Jianzhou, it will be a waste of food and money. That's really unacceptable. ”

Feng Ziying couldn't answer what Bushiya Mara said.

Although there were many armies in the Zhou Dynasty, there were only a few that could really fight, and the border walls were thousands of miles away. Where could they not need to be guarded?

It seems that the Mongols do not have the strength to enter the Central Plains, but substantial threats exist at any time. You have to put hundreds of thousands of troops on the ground here. This is the price of a larger country and a longer border.

"Busiya Mara, times are changing dramatically, and so is the Great Zhou Dynasty." Feng Ziying said leisurely: "I thought the peak period of the Jianzhou Jurchens should have passed. As you said, in the battle of Tieling, they seemed They captured Anle Prefecture, but they need three to five years to recuperate and digest before they can turn what they swallowed into their own strength, and we will not give them this time."

Zhezhe, who had quietly gotten up despite the pain, was hiding behind the door, listening thoughtfully to the conversation between Feng Ziying and Busia Mara.

"Three to five years? Ziying, are you so confident?" Busia Mara couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and asked, although she also knew that after Da Zhou solved the Jiangnan problem, he would be free to deal with Liaodong, but in three to five years Will Jianzhou Jurchen be solved in 2018?

"Haha, look, we believe what we see. When the era of hot weapons comes, the Jianzhou Jurchens will soon find that their proud cavalry and archery are like paper in front of firearms. Anyone who cannot keep up with the trend of history will Everything will be quickly eliminated without even saying hello to you." Feng Ziying was full of confidence.

 There was no words all night. Here Zhezhe was tossing and turning on the bed, and over there Feng Ziying and Busia Mara were fighting fiercely on the kang.

 The next morning, Feng Ziying got up holding her waist.

Busiya Mara, who was in the age of the tiger and wolf, had more intense desires in this regard after giving birth to a child. After a night of tossing, Feng Ziying, who had come prepared, was a little overwhelmed.

 Thinking of having to chat with Wang Xifeng today, he felt a little chill going down his spine.

  ************

 The Ministry of Household Affairs allocated funds faster than expected, and Huang Ruliang's straightforwardness also benefited from the huge profits that Jiangnan sales continued to bring back to the Ministry of Household Coffers.

The site of the Army Officer School was determined, and the expansion and renovation began immediately. The Military Training Department here also began to draft a plan for the rotation training of the first batch of Army officers.

 For rotational training, a training outline is required, which is also the biggest problem facing Feng Ziying at the moment.

 Officers are mobilized to participate in rotational training. What is the content of the training?

Since we are transforming into a new type of army, this kind of training must be targeted and pioneering. Only by being useful in the army after the training is completed can we achieve the goal.

 According to Feng Ziying’s idea, two classes can be opened first.

 One is an advanced class and the other is an intermediate class.

Since there are too many students in the junior class, it can be placed in the next batch. Now there is a pilot program in the advanced and intermediate classes.

The advanced class is mainly composed of deputy generals, staff generals, and guerrillas (capital commanders and guards commanders). They are all senior officers who lead the troops alone. They focus on strategic deployment and campaign command training, while the intermediate class is mainly composed of Officers below the garrison level (thousands of households, hundred households) are mainly trained on the execution of tactics in specific battles.

Of course, this is just a general filming arrangement, and the actual training courses are more complicated.

Feng Ziying took great pains to set up this course alone. Firstly, she had to consider the practicality and forward-looking nature of the course, and she also had to consider who would teach it, which was quite tricky.

Like the advanced class, Feng Ziying drafted several courses.

For example, "Geographical Map Reference and Identification Application" talks about the use of mountain and river surveying and mapping on maps in battles, including the use of sand tables.

For example, "Today's Political, Economic and Military Situation in East Asia", such as "Basic Principles of Information Science", such as "Basic Principles and Development History of Firearms", such as "Basic Tactics for the Use of Today's Firearms", such as "Basic Principles of the Use of Artillery in War", "Basic Principles of Logistics Support in War" and so on.

Feng Ziying can roughly sketch out some of the content that he can imagine, but it is not easy to find suitable teachers. These are not easy to find in the Ministry of War, and need to be selected among the border troops.

No matter how rough or reluctant it is, Feng Ziying believes that it must be done. It is better to do it sooner than later. And if you don't try to do it, you will never be able to accumulate experience and improve. Everyone needs to be a crab eater. , no matter how many problems and problems there are, they must be solved and optimized one by one.

Here, Feng Ziying also sent greetings to Liaodong, Jizhen, Datong, Denglai and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, asking them to recommend generals who are outstanding in certain fields and capable of eloquence to serve as training instructors. This may be unpopular, but it must be done as a political task.

As the initiator, Feng Ziying should naturally lead the way. He will personally teach several courses such as "Today's Political, Economic and Military Situation in the East Asian Continent" and "Basic Principles and Development History of Firearms".

At the same time, these officers who were selected as instructors first had to undergo a round of training by Feng Ziying. First, Feng Ziying gave them lessons to let them understand the purpose and significance of the lessons, as well as the methods to be adopted, and then they taught them separately. For each lesson, make a comment and compare and improve each other, and then proceed to the real teaching.
