Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 137 Join the Army!Tuqiao Village was appointed as the striker of customs clearance!

Qiu Fu glanced at Zhu Di and said with a smile, "You are brother Zhu's friend, of course you can."

"Thank you Qiu Qianhu."

After thanking Zhang Pu with a smile, he turned to thank Zhu Di.

After a lunch.

The snow on the ground is already finger-thick.

Not only did the snow not appear to stop, but it was getting bigger and bigger.

Everyone got out of the car formation and walked not far away to the direction where the guard camp was camped.

Zhu Di raised his hand, the snowflakes fell on his palm and melted, the ice was cold...

The corners of the lips are slightly raised.

If Miao Yun were here now, she would be very happy to see the snow flying all over the sky.

In an instant, he decided to ask Qiu Fu for help, write a letter, and ask Qiu Fu to send it back through the imperial post.

Zhang Pu deliberately slowed down, walked behind with his entourage, looked at Zhu Di, and ordered in a low voice: "Get in touch with the people in Tuqiao Village, and inquire about the relationship between the shoulder mark and Zhu Silang."

After saying that, he hurried to catch up with Zhu Di, and saw Zhu Di's lips smiling, "What is Brother Zhu thinking, so happy?"

Zhu Di was really happy, and said with a smile: "I miss my wife, my wife has never seen such a heavy snow, I was thinking, if she sees this snow, she will be very happy."

Haha ...

'No prospect! '

Zhang Pu laughed heartily, slandering in his heart, but praised on his mouth, "It can be seen that Brother Zhu and Mrs. Ling must be raising their eyebrows together, playing harmoniously."

'We are destined to be this hard-hearted villain who breaks up a beautiful marriage, but I don't know if your wife can be like Wang Baochuan, who has waited 18 years in the cold kiln for taking you to the grassland. '

(Xu Miaoyun: Very good! Remember it!)

beep...beep...

At this moment, horns sounded outside Qiu Fu's tent.

Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng, who left earlier, walked out of the tent.

The soldiers under their command, hearing the sound of the horn, ran out of the tents one after another, and quickly lined up outside Qiu Fu's tent.

Looking at the order and prohibition, Zhang Pu nodded imperceptibly.

Zhu Di was very calm.

Compared with the orders and prohibitions he has seen, to be honest, the Ming army is really far behind.

Of course, the two cannot be compared.

There is a gap in the quality of soldiers.

Moreover, the soldiers in the guard are a combination of farming and warfare, half farmers and half soldiers, not completely professional soldiers.

In this era, the Ming Army can definitely be regarded as the most military-literate army in the world.

Zhu Di followed the villagers, standing aside and watching...

Soon, a layer of snow fell on the soldiers' jackets and hair.

Qiu Fu nodded in satisfaction, then pointed to the epaulettes on his shoulders, and couldn't help showing a showy look, "Before the meal, the brothers saw this, and they were all curious and concerned, and wanted to know what it is, right?"

"Correct!"

Tan Yuan led his headquarters to stand in front, shouted first, and stared at him with fiery eyes.

Qiu Fu smiled, "This is the logo we have been using for a while, but this one has a new name."

"It was taken by His Majesty himself!"

"It's called a shoulder tag!"

"A sword-style epaulette with no handle and no scabbard on a red background, and with three stripes, it is the shoulder badge of Qianhu and Deputy Qianhu."

"See the color of the three stripes?"

"Bright yellow!"

"This is His Majesty's exclusive color. Carrying it on our shoulders means that His Majesty is here in person!"

"If one day, I am transferred, and the court sends any Qianhu who wears three stripes, no matter who he is, you must obey his orders and obey his commands!"

……

"The old man's background is not good, and he never went to a serious school, but he is an absolute outstanding student in social science. '

Zhu Di pondered secretly.

The emperor's exclusive color, bright yellow three stripes!
This color system is used on the shoulder label, and there are too many benefits.

Look at Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng's tears of gratitude.

This will not be an isolated case!

Once the shoulder mark is pushed to the whole army.

The old man can use this bright yellow bar to reap the loyalty of the middle and low-level generals of the entire army.

This is one of them.

Second, this color system represents that if I come here in person, it has a great advantage over other color systems for the concept of "only recognize the logo but not the person".

'Another centralization experiment by the Central Plains Dynasty! '

A look of surprise flashed in Zhang Pu's eyes.

Before, he simply thought that the shoulder badge was just a more clear and concise way to show the relationship between superiors and subordinates in the army.

Until I heard Qiu Fu speak.

Only then did I realize that the role of shoulder marks is not just to show the affiliation between superiors and subordinates.

The Ming Dynasty seems to want to make the shoulder mark an anchor of trust and obedience in the army!
In previous dynasties, soldiers at the bottom fought with the generals, and it was the generals who trusted them.

Once the general is changed, there will be problems with poor command, or even lack of command.

The Ming Dynasty seems to be trying to solve this problem.

Replace generals with shoulder badges!
When low-level soldiers are trained to only recognize shoulder marks.

Senior generals, mid-level and low-level generals in the army can freely rotate among the army.

After the end of the term of office, they will be rotated, and the time is short, so it is difficult for generals to cultivate strength.

Even if it is cultivated, it will be scattered in many parts of the army during the rotation, and the power will be scattered. Even if there are ambitious people, the power cannot be clenched into a fist, and they dare not move around.

……

"Okay, that's all for the general, now, the awarding ceremony officially begins!"

beep……

The soldiers standing beside Qiu Fu blew the horn made of ox horns again.

After the equal sign tone falls.

Qiu Fu opened the military register and called names loudly: "Hundred households: Zhou Zhou, Yang Jingxiong..."

"President: Tan Yuan..."

"General Banner:..."

"Xiaoqi:..."

"Exit!"

The middle and low-ranking generals who were named, including Tan Yuan, stepped out of the formation excitedly.

In front of Qiu Fu, line up again.

Qiu Fu looked at the crowd, turned around and nodded at Zhu Neng, and the two began to wear shoulder badges for the generals at all levels.

One hundred households, two bar shoulder marks.

Take the total, a bar shoulder mark.

The general flag has two gold-rimmed bars.

A small flag with a gold-rimmed stripe.

hey-hey……

When Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng came in front of Tan Yuan, Tan Yuan giggled and couldn't wait to put his shoulders together.

Qiu Fu smiled and stared.

While wearing it, he laughed and cursed, "Don't be too happy. When you are outside the customs, if you are not brave enough to fight, I will pull off your shoulder badge with my own hands and let you make up for it. When I am satisfied, I will wear it back for you again." Shoulders."

He is very optimistic about Tan Yuan.

Brave and willing to use his brain.

Most importantly, although this guy doesn't know a few big characters.

But there is a gangster spirit that can mobilize the emotions of soldiers.

Of course, this is also a thorn that can cause trouble.

To deal with this kind of thorn, you have to catch a carrot in front and hold a whip in the back.

Only in this way can he devote all his energy to leading the army.

"Qianhu, just look at it, we will definitely not disgrace this one bar, and when we have done meritorious service, you can appreciate it and give us two bars."

Lo and behold, the nose is kicking on the face again.

Zhu Neng scolded Qiu Fu with a smile: "Do you still want me and Qianhu to take off the three stripes and put them on for you?"

"Deputy Qianhu, one day, we will definitely be able to wear three stripes, but by then, you will definitely not be three stripes anymore." Tan Yuan did not hide it.

But these words made Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng not only not angry, but also very happy.

Are they not three stripes anymore?

What is above the three bars?
The two looked at each other, and they couldn't help but imagine.

……

Not far away, Zhu Di observed the ordinary soldiers who had no chance to wear shoulder badges.

Thoughtful.

"Mr. Zhu." A voice from beside him interrupted his train of thought.

Turning his head, Zhu Di saw Zhou Lang watching enviously, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Zhu, if I join the army at my age, is it possible to make a profit?"

Hearing this, Zhu Di laughed immediately, "Do you want to join the army?"

Zhou Lang sneered.

Along the way, he learned a lot from Mr. Zhu, and seeing Tan Yuan and the others get the epaulets, he was also envious.

He didn't want to stay in a small place in Jiangning for the rest of his life.

I want to break through.

But besides being a little bit martial arts, he can barely read and write crookedly. Apart from joining the army, he really can't think of where else he can develop.

Zhu Di thought, Zhou Lang must be envious.

For generations, the Zhou family has been eating the food of government servants.

At least as far as he knows, since the Yuan Dynasty, four generations have eaten this bowl of rice.

Throughout the dynasties, the servants and subordinate officials in the local government actually had a strong family heritage.

Several generations of Zhou Lang's family can eat this bowl of rice, because they have a little bit of family martial arts.

"Yes, yes."

Zhu Di analyzed to Zhou Lang: "But joining the army is very dangerous, and you may lose your life on the battlefield. In terms of safety, it is definitely not as good as a government servant."

"You are also a little older, almost thirty, that is to say, you only have ten years left, and if within ten years, you are still a big soldier...you understand what I mean?"

Zhou Lang's eager mood was slightly depressed, so he nodded.

Ten years later, if you are still the leader.

There is no development in the military.

Zhu Di was analyzing Zhou Lang's career plan.

If you want to live a good life, you must have a plan.

He has his own plans.

……

"In short, don't rush to make a decision, think about it first, and when our corvee is over, you go home and discuss it with your family."

"If you still want to join the army after discussing it, I'll say hello to Qiu Qianhu. Although he has a low status, it's not difficult for him to arrange for you."

Zhou Lang smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to Mr. Zhu and think about it carefully."

"Fourth brother, what about me? Can I join the army?"

A young man in the village suddenly interjected.

Zhu Di couldn't laugh or cry immediately.

A shoulder mark, as for it!
Snapped!
Just as he was about to speak, Eighth Uncle slapped the young man hard, suppressed his voice, and glared: "Zhou Lang has family-renowned martial arts, what do you know!"

"The village is about to build a village community, and you have the opportunity to do something!"

"If we build our village well, we can still save face! Don't just look at this mountain and that mountain all day long, just think about it!"

Uncle Ba directly suppressed several young people.

Zhu Di smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that he's biased.

It is really these young people in the village who are not suitable.

There is no martial arts.

Maybe in a fierce battle, they all have to be on the battlefield.

Uncle Ba has experienced the transformation from a farmer to a soldier and then to a farmer.

Know how cruel it is to be eliminated.

Those who can survive are all luck!

Therefore, Eighth Uncle cherishes the present day very much.

"Okay, the grant is over!"

Qiu Fu's words interrupted Zhu Di's train of thought.

After Qiu Fu said a few more words of encouragement, he ordered the whole army to prepare for departure.

Zhu Di and the others also hurried back.

It's not long before we set off on the road.

Zhang Wu trotted over, "Mr. Zhu, Qianhu and Deputy Qianhu are looking for you."

Zhu Di nodded and followed Zhang Wu to leave.

Looking at Zhu Di's leaving back, Zhang Pu couldn't help frowning slightly. He wanted to follow and listen, but he didn't dare to make it too obvious.

Worried about arousing Zhu Di's suspicion.

'Forget it, Zhu Silang is not here, and he happened to be knocking around his folks and getting some useful things. '

……

Zhu Di caught up with Qiu Fu and the two of them.

Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng dismounted on their own initiative, threw the reins to the soldiers, and walked with him.

"Brother Zhu, we are about to leave the customs soon. Lord Cao asked us to take care of you, but we can't just take care of you."

Qiu Fu didn't beat around the bush, and pointed forward, "We are going to slow down and be in the middle of the entire team of servants. In this way, no matter if there is danger in front or behind, we can rush to help as quickly as possible."

"The livestock in your village are taken care of the best, and the speed is the fastest. In addition, your village's ability to deal with crises has been proven in Shandong after your training."

"So, we want you to be ahead of the curve."

"Of course, I'm not using you as bait to explore the way. Tan Yuan will lead the headquarters and walk ahead of you."

After talking, Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng looked at Zhu Di together...
