In the early morning, there were commands. Outside Luzhou City, more than 200,000 chieftains were running around like a pot. Finally, they formed huge square formations.

"drink."

With the neat roars, shield walls appeared one after another in front of the square formations.

"ha."

There were waves of neat roars, and rows of spears appeared in front of the square formations one after another.

"drink."

"ha."

Roars kept ringing, shield walls and spears continued to appear alternately.

The roars of each square array seemed to be relatively neat, but the shield array they were discharged was loose and slit everywhere, and the spears pierced were also high and low, uneven.

I don’t know how many white-rod soldiers interspersed in the square formation, correcting their movements while commanding, but the effect did not seem to be very obvious.

These chieftain soldiers were not uncooperative. The main reason was that they were used to rushing forward and killing the master's craftsman, and letting them out neat arrays and shouting neat slogans was not easy. It was difficult for them to make uniform movements.

On the city wall, Ma Qiancheng just glanced around and put down his telescope and frowned: "Master, these guys are used to being lazy. If you want to train them to become elite white pole soldiers, and fight with ease, it may not be enough for a year. Will it really take us that long?"

Zhu Qizhu smiled slightly and said without caring: "It's not that exaggerated. In fact, the point is not the point of their battle formation. The point is that they have to be used to being obedient and not doing anything randomly."

obedient?

Who should I listen to?

The white-rod soldiers he sent were just to guide others in the training. When the war was really in progress, it was impossible for these white-rod soldiers to follow them. If they wanted to follow them, they would not have many people under him.

Ma Qiancheng couldn't help but say curiously: "Master, are you going to send someone to command them to fight?"

Zhu Qizhuo shook his head slightly and said, "This is not necessary. They are not elite troops. I don't have so many generals to waste it. Just have those supervisors watching them."

warlord?

Of course, Ma Qiancheng knew that Zhu Qizhu sent a commander. At this moment, there were secret guards standing straight in front, back and left and right of each square formation, and secret guards followed the chieftains. Problem, these secret guards basically didn't say much, and they didn't point fingers. They seemed to just stand there and watch.

He couldn't help asking, "Is this useful?"

Of course it is useful.

In fact, Zhu Qizhao lets the men under the chieftain practice here in order to make these people accustomed to the rules.

As for the battle formation, cooperation, and momentum, that is not the point.

Anyway, these are vassals, so he didn't expect these people to be ten or even defeat the elite Jiannu.

He only has one requirement, that is, these people must abide by the rules and not act randomly.

When they started practicing, these people were a little reluctant, but after several days of training, these people gradually got used to it. At least, there was no resistance on their faces.

Because they all knew that if the requirements were met, the governor would not let them rest.

If you stand there for five or six hours a day, it would be really tiring. Who wouldn't want to practice for one hour and rest for half an hour?

The question is, whether they can rest is not their final decision, nor is their chief man who has the final decision, but the governor has the final decision.

Only when the governor nodded could they rest.

Now Ma Qiancheng and 20,000 elite white-rod soldiers are here. They dare not make trouble, let alone make excuses.

Zhu Qizhe took advantage of the time when there were white-rod soldiers here to suppress them, so that these people would get used to listening to the supervisor and abide by the rules. Otherwise, when these people went to war and went to attack the city, the five secret guards could not watch tens of thousands of people.

In fact, he had never thought of using these chieftain's miscellaneous army to unify the world. He really didn't like the strength of these miscellaneous army.

However, when discussing how to take over Sichuan this time, he found that it would be impossible without these miscellaneous troops.

Because of such a large territory in Sichuan, he would need at least 200,000 to 300,000 troops to capture all of them in a short period of time, and he didn't have so many troops under his command.

Even if Sichuan is like this, how many people can be saved in the entire Ming Dynasty and the thirteen capitals?

Therefore, there must be such a vassal army, and the more it is, the better it is. The more it is, the less time it takes to unify the world.

He didn't expect these vassals to exert much combat power. Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong's main force, and the elites of Jiannu's Eight Banners, had their own elites to solve. As long as these people can abide by the rules and do not act randomly when attacking ordinary cities, don't make his reputation bad.

The secret guards he sent were supervising this, and he wanted to make these vassals understand that whoever dared to do anything was to be employed in military law.

As for who dares not take the governor seriously, acts in front of the governor, and even kills the governor, it depends on who has the courage to do so!

He had asked Ma Qiancheng and An Wei to warn those chieftains that whoever dared to kill the governor would directly destroy his entire clan!

Powerful chieftains like Yang Yinglong, An Bangyan, and She Chongming have all been destroyed. If anyone doesn’t believe it, try it!

The army of more than 200,000 chieftains had been training for more than half a month, and everyone was finally accustomed to the existence of the supervisor. The supervisor asked them to get up early and they would get up early. The supervisor asked them to practice and they would practice. The supervisor asked them to rest and they would rest. No one was even reluctant.

Anyway, they are not letting them die. Moreover, training not only allows them to eat enough, but also pay for food and salary. Whoever doesn’t want to do that is, it’s a problem. Everyone even wants to keep practicing. After practicing for a year or two, they will become as powerful as a white-rod soldier!

Unfortunately, nothing is so good.

They were going to go to war after all, and the military guards reported that they had no temper. After they were all trained, Zhu Qizhu ordered and began to follow the rules.

The so-called rules means asking the Secret Guard to read out the things that should be paid attention to when fighting outside.

For example, unarmed ordinary people are not allowed to be killed randomly;

For example, you must not set fire at will to destroy houses;

For example, you must not rob the property of ordinary people;

These are the rules. Whoever does not follow the rules is engaged in military law!

The secret guards and the military commander preached over and over again, and for several days, until everyone heard it, their ears were almost calloused and all the rules were memorized. The commander announced that he would choose an auspicious day and go on a vowing to go to war!

This guy, more than 200,000 chieftains, roared outside Luzhou City like crazy, for more than half a month. The prefectures, prefectures, and magistrates in nearby prefectures and counties heard it even if they were deaf!

Sichuan Governor Chen Shiqi had already received news that the chieftains of Bozhou, Xuzhou and Shuixi had rebelled again, and Luzhou was occupied by others, and the outside of Luzhou City was densely filled with chieftains.

However, the urgent message sent from Sichuan now was all from Kuizhou Prefecture to Yunyang Prefecture. It was impossible to go to Hanzhong Prefecture and go through the Qinling Mountains for a long circle. Therefore, all the urgent official documents he issued were intercepted.

In fact, even if it is not intercepted, it is probably not very useful. At this moment, the Ming Dynasty court could not even control the rebels Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, so they would not be able to manage the rebellion of the chieftains in the southwest.

Chen Shiqi had no choice but to ask the prefectures and counties to quickly recruit township warriors and strengthen city defense.
