Chapter 34 Preconceived
Baiqi's station and training camp are all in Xuanwumen, Taiji Palace, which is the place where Li Shimin directed a major palace coup. In the past, entering the palace from here will directly face the harem where the emperor lives, so it is a weak defensive area and a throat.
Now, this place is guarded by the left prison guard led by Li Junxian. Baiqi's station is a row of newly built residences, which are magnificent. There are still new paint and bright glazed tiles, showing a sense of nobleness everywhere.
"Mu Bai, the emperor attaches great importance to Baiqi. Look at this newly built soldier's residence, which is better than any imperial army. Because you are Your Majesty's personal guards, no matter which way you say it, you must be the best. Li Junxian pointed to the row of military dormitories and said to Qin Mubai, "Look at your residences. Even the treatment of ordinary hundred riders is not worse than that of many generals. There are four people in one house, and each house is specially equipped with a handyman and a eunuch to serve. There are special people to feed horses, deliver food, and clean the courtyard. You, six hundred riders, are equipped with more than a thousand handymen. With so many people serving, I'm afraid that under the world, only a hundred-rider soldiers are not as soldiers.
Qin Mubai finally heard it. Although Li Junxian said it more easily and casually, it seemed to be a joke, but it was a little sour. His peers are enemies. Li Junxian has been stationed in the throat area of Xuanwu Gate of Taiji Palace for many years, and has not received such treatment.
"Since the treatment is so good, I think our responsibilities and tasks are also very difficult." Qin Mubai said so.
"As long as you understand." Li Junxian's official face was expressionless. He took out a piece of broken note and handed it to Qin Mubai and said, "Look first. This is the training plan I made for you Baiqi after listening to the emperor's order."
Qin Mubai took it over and took a look, and breathed a cold breath in his heart!
This is clearly a "killing plan"!
In the training table, 12 hours a day are extremely accurate. From getting up at dawn to bedtime, every moment is quite "full". This makes Qin Mubai, who is familiar with the 21st century barracks, feel a little surprised - this is obviously devilish training!
Coupled with the military rules and brainwashing political dogma formulated by the emperor for Baiqi, it can be imaginable that Baiqi will be such an army in the future: absolute obedience and meticulousness, iron-blooded invincibility, a group of the highest-profile peak bodyguards and the most gorgeous killing machines.
"What, are you afraid?" Li Junxian picked the corners of his mouth and smiled a little coldly.
Qin Mubai gently closed his folded hands and cut his back for a few steps, and smiled slightly: "General Li, can I make an opinion?"
"Of course." Li Junxian said solemnly, "Your Majesty has a decree. You are the captain of a hundred riders, and I'm just a long history to assist you. It's still up to you to make the big deal.
"That's good. I need to make some adjustments to some of these training subjects. Qin Mubai paused and turned his head to look at him, "Is it okay?"
Li Junxian frowned slightly and smiled as if nothing had happened: "Of course. Anyway, in the end, it's up to the emperor to come.
Qin Mubai nodded and did not say anything, thinking: It seems that the emperor is still worried about me as a newcomer after all. To put it nicely, I sent a 'old and experienced' general to assist me. In fact, I wanted to supervise me at the beginning and evenjia kong me. No wonder Baiqi is the closest pro-military force to the emperor. The emperor doesn't know me very well. How can he rest assured that he will really give me his life?
In fact, Qin Mubai muttered in his heart, not how to compete with Li Junxian for favor and how to win the trust of the emperor. The training plan formulated by Li Junxian is too 'unscientific'.
It is a metaphor, there is only a fragrant rest time after lunch, and you will immediately invest a lot of exercise in strength training. Even if you exercise strength, your stomach will be broken. If you don't know how to rest, you don't know how to work. How can you practice a real warrior by being cruel and bitter? Moreover, these training subjects are too traditional and no different from those of other armies in the Tang Dynasty. Even if the quality of these soldiers is indeed much higher than that of other ordinary soldiers, what can be special in the end of training in this way? What qualifications do you have to be the emperor's personal guard?
So at this moment, Qin Mubai has a detailed training plan in his heart, of course, he learned from the National University of Defense Science and Technology and the modern army. It's okay to make them suitable for the status quo of the Tang army.
Doesn't the emperor need a group of real "Zhongnanhai bodyguards"? OK, I'll give you a batch of special forces!
Li Junxian took Qin Mubai around the Baiqi Camp, and then gathered 600 soldiers together. Among the officers of Baiqi, except for Qin Mubai, the Baiqizheng, all the other officers have not yet taken office. Qin Mubai thought that the emperor was also well-intentioned. Let Qin Mubai, the leader, take office first and put up a 'preconceived' impression in front of the soldiers, which is very good for him to clean up his hearts and unify the team in the future.
After all, the background of those people of Changsun Huang is very strong, and the popularity and influence among the children of the official clan are not comparable to that of Qin Mubai for the time being.
"Your Majesty said that in about seven days, the other officers will take office uniformly." Li Junxian said, "Therefore, you must be familiar with these people under you within these seven days. I want to remind you that these 600 people, even if they are just a small soldier, may have a great history. Therefore, most of them are arrogant. It's hard for you to subdue them. This is a huge test."
"A man without personality is not a good man, and a soldier who is not proud is not a good soldier." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "These people all have background and ability at the same time. But the background can't protect the enemy. Since they have entered Baiqi, they should throw away all the background and other things. All they need is their ability. If you can't do it, get out of here."
After saying that, Qin Mubai stared at Li Junxian with a smile on his face, with a calm but resolute expression.
Li Junxian was slightly stunned and nodded: "Then let go of your hands and feet!"
Six hundred soldiers stood in a neat team and looked at their highest direct commander, Qin Mubai.
600 people, 600 different eyes. Among them are envy, jealousy, dissupvinity, and expectation and admiration. Qin Mubai read out almost six hundred different thoughts from their eyes.
"What we need to do now is to unify their minds." After thinking about it, Qin Mubai took a step forward, took out the military regulations book given to him by Li Shimin, and said, "Brothers, let's not talk nonsense. Those who can get into Baiqi are those who have insight and ability. Everyone must know what we are here for. If there are no rules, there will be no circle. Today is the first time we meet. We don't talk about bold words, we don't climb friendship, and we don't engage in new officials to take office. This is the Hundred Horses Military Rule personally given by His Majesty the Emperor. I hope everyone will keep it in mind and engrave it. Military orders are as ruthless as a mountain of laws and regulations. No matter who it is in the future, as long as he violates these military rules, he will be severely punished in accordance with the law.
The six hundred soldiers suddenly looked solemn. They never expected that the hundred knights would use such an opening.
The first thing is to put a curse on each officer. If you want to wear it, you have to wear it if you don't want to.
After saying that, Qin Mubai called several civil servants assigned by Li Shimin to Baiqi, and asked the general to copy 600 copies, so that everyone could have one copy. In addition, military regulations are also erected in the form of tablet posts in military buildings and training grounds. Let everyone be familiar with it, subconsciously remember these military rules, and don't cross the minefield half a step.
"Three days later, there will be a written examination of military regulations. I will also participate in it myself, and I will invite Li Changshi to invigil in the examination. Qin Mubai said, "So, within three days, the general's rules will be recited. If you don't pass the exam, you can roll up the bedding and go home.
"Ah? ..." The sergeants were in an uproar. Is there such a thing in the world?
So, a large number of thrilling and questioning eyes turned to Qin Mubai, and naturally there were many dissatisfactions among them.
Li Junxian also frowned slightly and whispered, "General Qin, you may not go too far? ...Well, I mean, it's hard for you to dismiss a soldier so easily."
Qin Mubai understood the meaning expressed in the eyes of Li Junxian and these soldiers. These people all have a background, and it's not easy to get into Baiqi. If you say that you are fired, you will be fired... Do you Qin Mubai have this power?
With a slight sneer, Qin Mubai said: Are they all waiting for my explanation? Joke! I have to explain everything to you, then you are all a hundred riders.
"The order will be like a mountain, and I will never change it. I will never follow privacy and never in vain. Therefore, brothers must remember and fulfill it. After a pause, the scene was full of silence. Qin Mubai shouted, "Did you hear me clearly?"
"Listen... it's clear." A sparse response.
"Sh it up!"
"Listen clearly!"
"Git's neat!"
"Listen, clear, Chu, ready!"
"That's right." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "At this time in three days, there will be a military examination. Absenteeers are automatically abstaining and punished as deserters. Now it's scattered."
"No--" The sergeants answered neatly and left one after another, and no one muttered in a low voice.
Li Junxian watched quietly, squinted at Qin Mubai, frowned deeply, and said to himself: This boy is cruel enough, and he has a city government. He is young but a powerful character. No wonder the emperor fell in love with him at a glance!
"General Li, I have been living in the military building for the past three days. Please host the daily drills for these three days. I need some time to do something important." Qin Mubai said.
"This is no problem. I'm here to help you do these things. Li Junxian nodded and answered, but he thought in his heart: You are going to try your best to memorize the military rules. Are you afraid that you won't be able to come to the stage if you can't pass the exam?
