Chapter 40 Martial Arts
After Zhu Wuwu and Cao Zhengchun heard this, their expressions changed slightly. In the battle just now, it was true that the enemy had many masters, so many that the two of them were overwhelmed. If not for the support of the army, they would definitely fail.

"What caused this? Wang Chongyang gave an order, and a large number of martial arts people from the Southern Song Dynasty came to help. But what about us? Not to mention that once the imperial order was issued, there was very little response. Even the Japanese pirates in Jiangnan, how many Jianghu people I'm afraid there are very few people who join the army and kill Japanese pirates!" Zhu Shou's eyes flashed coldly.

"What the king said is true. There are not many Japanese pirates along the coast. Most of them are invaded by small groups. When our army got the news, the enemy had already fled deep into the sea, so it was difficult to annihilate them." Zhu ignored. explained.

"If I, the martial arts men of the Ming Dynasty, can respond to the imperial court's order and send troops to the coast, they will definitely be able to destroy the Japanese pirates. Then I will order Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou to build warships to pursue and intercept these Japanese pirates. I don't believe that I, the Ming Dynasty, can't destroy these Japanese pirates." Japanese pirates." Zhu Shou now possesses 80 years of internal power and has entered the psychic realm, and his tone of voice has changed.

"Your Majesty, what these people in the martial arts world long for is freedom, and they will not pay attention to the imperial edicts. It may not be easy to recruit them." Cao Zhengchun explained.

"Yes! Your Majesty, these people fight and kill each other on a daily basis and have many personal vendettas. Once they meet, they draw their swords at each other. It is difficult for them to mobilize and move freely like a large army." Zhu Wuwu was also in a dilemma.

"Zuo Lengchan of the Songshan Sect is preparing to merge the Five Mountains. Do you know about this?" Zhu Shou suddenly asked.

"Your Majesty, Zuo Lengchan may be dreaming about this. Although the Five Mountains Sword Sect is a well-known and upright sect, and they even have a good relationship with each other, and they work together to deal with the Sun and Moon God Sect, in fact, they all have conflicts with each other. The Sword Sect belongs to the Five Sacred Mountains and we are not together on weekdays. How can we unify the orders? I think it is absolutely impossible for Zuo Lengchan to achieve this." Cao Zhengchun shook his head.

"Your Majesty must not be talking about the Five Mountains Sword Sect!" Zhu Wulan's eyes flashed.

"All the martial arts sects actually obey the orders of the master. The position of the master is almost passed down from father to son, master to disciple. If it is passed down like this, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the court!" Zhu Shou raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a trace of Disdainful.

"This, Your Majesty, has been like this in all dynasties!" Cao Zhengchun was a little puzzled.

"Your Majesty is prepared to let the imperial court have the power to appoint the heads of various sects?" Zhu Mingwu thought more.

"No, these are not enough." Zhu Shou shook his head and said, "Look at the academies in various places. These academies teach the doctrines of saints and Haoran Zhengqigong. But does the imperial court have the power to appoint and remove these academies?"

"If it is a government-run academy, it is certainly possible." Zhu Mingwang suddenly realized, and immediately understood what Zhu Shou meant, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "The king is planning to let the court establish a martial arts school, so that these martial arts disciples can be mobilized To be used by the imperial court to weaken the power of major martial arts sects?"

"Not only that, each sect cherishes its own martial arts and hides some martial arts deeply, which makes some people too powerful and not conducive to the rule of the imperial court. Doing so will not only weaken the other party, but also expand the power of the imperial court. "Zhu Shou clenched his fists.

"Your Majesty, will those martial arts sects agree?" Cao Zhengchun swallowed, with a rare trace of panic on his face, because the King Ming in front of him was too courageous.

"Does the court need their consent? When did the court require their consent to do things? The Five Mountains Sword Sect? Or the Shaolin Wudang?" Zhu Shou sneered. "Naturally no one dares to disobey King Ming when he is doing things, but these martial arts masters are all trained from a young age. Some people are from sects and start practicing martial arts at a young age. Some people start studying at a young age and aspire to take the imperial examination. The court wants the court to cultivate martial arts masters, unless they start to enter the martial arts from a young age. Martial arts." Zhu Wuwu shook his head, he thought it was almost impossible to achieve this situation.

Generally, poor people hope that their sons can become officials, and those who are capable will learn from their teachers. After all, it is not something that ordinary people can do if they start practicing martial arts from a young age.

Generally, martial arts sects recruit some young children. On the one hand, martial arts training should start from an early age, and more importantly, they should cultivate loyalty to the sect. It is difficult for people who become monks halfway to achieve this.

For example, Linghu Chong of the Huashan Sect, etc., all entered the Huashan Sect and learned skills from their teachers when they were young. However, people like Luo Denuo were never trusted by Yue Buqun.

"The Lord Shen has forgotten some people. The children of these people are loyal to the court and have a good family background. They are military households. Whether they are generals or soldiers in the guard, they are born to be military households. It's impossible to change. If these people are recruited to practice martial arts and enter martial arts, what do you think?" Zhu Shou was very proud.

Zhu Wuwu and Cao Zhengchun's eyes lit up after hearing this. In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, Emperor Taizu established the military household system. Once a military household was entered, the whole family was a military household, and all the descendants were military households.

Although this move ensured the combat effectiveness of the army in the early stage, it also restricted the development of military households. In the later stage, it caused many adverse consequences. Now Zhu Shou decided to recruit these military households' children to enter martial arts and practice advanced martial arts. Not only can you get more masters, but it can also cultivate military households' loyalty to the court.

"The king's move is very clever." Zhu Wuwu said quickly: "I think it can be done. In this way, the court will have a large number of martial arts masters who can be summoned, and the combat effectiveness of our Ming army will also be greatly improved. "

Are there any masters in the army?Naturally, there are masters in the army. Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou are both masters, but they all have family backgrounds. For the lower-class military households, it is good to get one or two life-saving moves, and it is impossible to practice internal strength.

In this way, the top generals will always be the same group of people, and it will be difficult for the lower-level soldiers to be promoted, which is not conducive to the stability of the army.

"Huashan School's Hunyuan Mind Method is peaceful and tolerant. It can be used as the standard mind method in the military. Martial arts is divided into three levels: house, school and courtyard. Those who are successful in their moves can be admitted to the school, and those who can break through Qianjun's breath can be admitted to the hospital. , Those who are strong will be granted the title of captain." Zhu Shou said what he was thinking.

Zhu ignored the two men and nodded repeatedly, but something strange happened in his heart. It was obvious that what King Ming said had been thought about for a long time, so he thought about it so carefully, leaving both of them speechless.

However, the question arises. In the past, King Ming was a stubborn person, but now he suddenly changed his appearance. Is there someone behind this, or is he just like this by nature, but he was just like this on purpose before?This is the question that makes people think.
