Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 420 Jurchen?Just assimilate!
What is the difference between the military household system and the military household system?

Zhu Di kept recalling in his mind, and then said: "Sir, you just said that the government military system is actually the rich peasants who take the initiative to serve as soldiers, and the military household system is the government setting up military status and serving as soldiers for generations."

“Students think that’s where the difference lies.”

Su Jing wiped her hands, extremely satisfied.

A breakfast full of carbohydrates is the breakfast for working people!
"Yes, yes, it seems that King Yan has been listening very carefully. The difference between the military system and the military household system is actually the difference between active and passive."

Su Jing said with a smile: "The core of the government military system is that every household is a soldier, and the household members are generally the children of high-ranking families. They fight as soldiers for the sake of honor. They prepare their own weapons and equipment. Although it is not uniform, it is still worthy of the title. Excellent."

"With the military household system, the soldiers are all poor people with low social status. They fight for survival."

"Our Ming Dynasty's guard system is actually a variation of the military household system. I remember your father said a very heroic saying, raising a million soldiers without costing the people a grain of food, right?"

Zhu Di immediately nodded and said: "Yes, my father did say this. In the eyes of the students, the guard system is quite excellent in terms of military service. It can not only ensure a sufficient number of troops, but also have enough resources for war." forage."

"But on the first day, when the teacher was telling the students about the military rations, he said that the disadvantages of the guard system were very obvious. Once there is no battle to fight, then the farmland will become private property, and the military rations will It will also be flipped by trade.”

"It seems that the military service system instituted by this guard may be the fundamental reason for its occurrence."

Su Jing was quite surprised by Zhu Di's words. He didn't expect that military rations and military service would be directly linked to Zhu Di now.

Although this is relevant in itself, being able to bring it up shows that Zhu Di really listened carefully.

After drinking the tea, Su Jing paid the money, then turned around and went home with Zhu Di.

Neither Su Jing nor Zhu Di like shopping very much.

On the road.

"King Yan, the changes in the form of military service are actually a symbol of the country's finances."

Su Jing said lightly: "Why did the Ming Dynasty adopt a garrison system instead of a recruitment system? To put it bluntly, there is no money and food in the treasury. If the army cannot solve the food problem by itself, the burden on the people will be too great and survival will be a problem."

"I said it on the first day. At this stage, the guard system is a pretty good system for the Ming Dynasty, but it cannot be sustained forever. It needs to be constantly improved and changed according to the development of the times."

"The military is not just about leading troops to fight, but is also closely related to the country's technological development level, financial level, and political level. The purpose of military service is to recruit enough soldiers for the country to fight. Whether it is forced conscription or recruiting soldiers, they are just means."

"The perfect military service system may not exist in theory, because the development of a dynasty goes through various stages, and different stages naturally require appropriate systems."

Zhu Di only felt that he had received too much information. Su Jing's explanation of military service gave him a new understanding again.

"By the way, does King Yan know about the Jurchen clan?"

Su Jing suddenly asked, "The Jurchens are the predecessors of the Manchus. Su Jing talked about the military service system of the Ming Dynasty from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. The Qing Dynasty can also be mentioned."

But there is no Qing Dynasty yet, only the Jurchen clan.

Zhu Di nodded and said: "Students know that further north of Peiping is where the Jurchen tribe lives. It is said that they are a group of horse people, and the men are all very good at riding."

"The student has long thought that after conquering Beiping, he will recruit a cavalry composed of Jurchens to imitate the Qiang cavalry of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty."

The current Zhu Di did not take the Jurchens seriously at all.

After all, the Ming Dynasty has just been established at this moment, and the Jurchens are still a backward tribe. Not to mention being the opponents of the Ming Dynasty, life is extremely difficult.

"Good ambition."

Su Jing nodded and said: "I happen to know a little bit about the Jurchens. The Jurchens are not many in number and live in the cold north. There is almost no land for planting. They basically make a living by hunting, so they have excellent riding skills. "

"Generally, they hunt in groups. Although they are not considered an army, they can also be understood as a model of military service, similar to the tribal soldier system."

"However, the Jurchens are more organized than ordinary tribes. They like to use colored flags to distinguish different tribes and direct operations. If King Yan can conquer them, it will be a powerful help."

"It is best to let them marry the Han people directly after conquering them and completely belong to the Ming Dynasty. In this way, the border of the Ming Dynasty will be safe."

As a Han Chinese, Su Jing still has some selfish motives.

Although it seems now that the Jurchens are just a few small tribes, they are not a big threat on the border of the Ming Dynasty.

But the records in the history books are clear. With the continuous development, the Jurchens gradually formed the Manchu people.

Finally, they counterattacked the Ming Dynasty and established the Qing Dynasty.

Now that Su Jing and Zhu Di have mentioned this, their purpose is very simple. When the Ming Dynasty was strong, they would completely assimilate the Jurchens and Han people.

In this way, even if the Ming Dynasty really fell, there would be no Qing people entering the country after that.

Of course, the Qing Dynasty is still hundreds of years away. Now it is just a word to Zhu Di, and everything is still unknown.

"Students remember."

Zhu Di nodded seriously. Although he had never cared too much about the Jurchens, this did not prevent him from trusting Su Jing.

"I just said casually, as the vassal queen, King Yan, of course you have things to do."

Su Jing waved her hand and was not too pushy.

The Jurchens have completely assimilated with the Han people. Who knows if a new Manchu will emerge?

The demise of the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu invasion were only external factors.

When the lifespan is over, even if there are no Manchus or Nurhaci, they will still perish.

"arrive."

Su Jing pushed open the courtyard door and quickly dragged the wood and tools to the center of the courtyard.

Although it is Zhu Di's last day, Su Jing will not receive any special care for this.

The carpentry that needs to be done still needs to be done.

Zhu Di was also very discerning and immediately helped Su Jing start the attack.

However, the wood material has been changed, and the operation is much more difficult.

It was also a planing operation, but Su Jing felt that it was quite difficult to advance the planing knife.

"It's different when the density is higher."

Su Jing sighed.

The more difficult the wood is to work with, the better the quality.

Zhu Di helped and asked curiously: "Sir, what is this density?"

Su Jing said lightly: "It is the ratio of material weight to volume. To put it bluntly, for example, the wood I am planing now is much denser than the wood used to make bicycles. The same volume weighs much more. "

"Dense wood can naturally bear greater weight and be stronger. Of course, it is also more difficult to process."

"Hiss... It's really a physical labor job." Su Jing pushed the planer hard, wanting to appear calm and composed, but her strength didn't allow it.

"Sir, how about letting students try it?"

Zhu Di tried to ask.

Su Jing stopped, glanced at Zhu Di who was eager to try, nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can give it a try if you want."

With that said, Su Jing handed the plane knife to Zhu Di and moved away from her position.

"Thank you Mr. Su."

Zhu Di took the plane knife, learned Su Jing's previous technique, and started operating it directly.

Su Jing was so happy that she sat down on the stone bench nearby.

He didn't expect Zhu Di to do much work for him, so he just needed to take a rest.

As soon as he got started, Zhu Di felt that this life was not easy.

The strong sense of blockage on the planer made Zhu Di's movements very slow, and he even became unable to move.

At his age, it is normal for him to be unable to do anything.

However, it is impossible for Zhu Di to give up now, in front of Su Jing.

Zhu Di gritted his teeth and pushed the planer hard.

However, the harder he tried, the more he found that he couldn't push it.

Su Jing smiled and said: "King Yan, this planer does not press down, but pushes forward. The harder you press it, the harder it is to push. First plan out the larger protruding parts, and then tilt it little by little. The angle of force is the correct one.”

Although planing wood seems to be a very simple job, it is still a bit difficult for people like Zhu Di who have never done it before.

The main thing is that if you don’t get the key point, it’s easy to stump yourself.

After hearing Su Jing's instructions, Zhu Di immediately mastered the trick.

As he relaxed some strength and changed the angle, the planer immediately became smoother.

"Sir, the students have been taught."

Zhu Di said excitedly to Su Jing.

Su Jing said calmly: "King Yan, this is called going too far but not doing enough. There are some things where you just can't use too much force."

"There is a saying on the battlefield that the more you fear death, the easier it is to die. This is the truth."

When Zhu Di heard this, he immediately became interested and asked curiously: "Sir, what should we interpret this statement? People who are afraid of death shouldn't think of ways to save their own lives. Why do they die so easily?"

Su Jing said: "Because the battlefield is a place of chaos and rapid changes. If you want to survive on the battlefield, you must not be chaotic. For people who are afraid of death, timidity will affect their hearts and make people lose accurate judgment. Without accurate judgment, , death is not far away.”

"Mindset is a very important factor in determining the victory of a war. For example, in the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu's 40 troops faced off against the [-] Qin army. He chose the desperate method to inspire the soldiers' combat effectiveness in a desperate situation, thus winning this victory. A battle.”

"It's just that these tricks must be used with caution. If one of them is not good, it can easily cause the army to mutiny, and then it will be self-defeating."

"As for life, for example, in a shopping mall, if you use too much force in everything, it is easy for your opponents to see your intentions. When you compete with others for profit, you will be at a disadvantage."

"I think your father has also taught you in daily life. As a prince, you must not be impatient. You must be calm about favors and humiliations, and forget both things and yourself."

Things like mentality are actually quite mysterious.

But the good thing about mysterious things is that you can talk about them casually.

No, what Su Jing said now immediately shocked Zhu Di.

His father, Zhu Yuanzhang, indeed said something similar, such as not being able to get angry at will and not showing your thoughts to the people below.

But compared with the description of being unfazed by favors and humiliations, and forgetting both things and myself, it seems a little unflattering.

"Thank you sir for teaching."

Zhu Di worked hard, his body was tired but his mood was relaxed.

Su Jing was unhappy because of some words before, but it made Zhu Di anxious for a long time.

Now it seems like everything is over.

Su Jing looked at Zhu Di and felt that she had almost rested. She stood up and said, "King Yan, it's okay. I'll do it next."

Zhu Di wanted to continue working for a while, but Su Jing had already arrived in front of him.

"Yes, sir."

Zhu Di had no choice but to return the planer to Su Jing.

However, Zhu Di did not dare to sit next to him and rest like Su Jing, but immediately struck Su Jing again.

"Sir, you just said that mentality is very important, so how do you maintain a good mentality?"

Zhu Di asked Su Jing curiously.

Su Jing smiled, this was the area he was good at. In his previous life, he was the best at employee training, and he was the best at saying this kind of cliché.

"Ahem, do you want to maintain a good attitude? It's easy to say, but it's also difficult to say hard."

Su Jing coughed twice and said: "To maintain a good attitude, you must first understand what a mentality is. To put it bluntly, it is a mental state."

"Mental state is also a process of dynamic change, which refers to the development of psychological activities that occur at a moment when a person faces a certain situation."

"Mental state is the background of psychological activities and a basic psychological activity, such as joy, anger, sorrow and joy, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty. It has the characteristics of psychological process and personality psychological characteristics, and is both temporary and stable. Mental state changes in different Psychological activity stages and activity fields have different manifestations, and it is difficult to use a single classification standard or only classify and explain mentality from one perspective.”

Su Jing's theory made Zhu Di's words completely confused and confused.

"Sir, the student didn't understand very well. Please explain it more clearly."

Zhu Di could only plead with Su Jing.

Su Jing naturally knew Zhu Di's current understanding, because when he first learned about these theories, he was just as confused.

Fortunately, Su Jing had experience. He picked up the planer and said, "King Yan, it's actually very simple. Mentality is the psychological change caused by changes in the external environment. For example, if I accidentally hurt my hand while planing wood, my hand will It hurts, and you will naturally feel uncomfortable in your heart.”

"Changes in external things affect oneself, from the body to the mind. The heart here has a mentality inside."

Zhu Di's eyes lit up and he said: "Sir, do you mean to say that if you want to maintain a good attitude, you must not be affected by changes in the external environment and must strengthen your heart."

"You are planing wood to make a bicycle. Even if you hurt your hand, it will not change the original purpose."
