At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

Chapter 880: I don't want to be a marquis, I just want the sea to be peaceful

No matter how many times she heard that her little life was ruined, she was still as happy as ever.

The ancestors also knew how much the little fairies hated their little lives, and they hated them too.

"Senior Qi Jiguang, your name is Qi Jiguang, with the courtesy names Yuanjing, Wenming, and Ruqian, and you are from Dingyuan, Fengyang.

Your ancestor Qi Xiang once followed Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang in his campaigns, and was later killed in the attack on Yunnan.

After Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, in remembrance of Qi Xiang's contribution to the founding of the country, he granted Qi Xiang's son Qi Bin the title of General Mingwei and the hereditary title of Dengzhou Guard.

Since then, the Qi family has been serving in Dengzhou.

Senior Qi Jiguang, your father Qi Jingtong was 56 years old when he had a son like you, so he was quite strict with you.

Not only did he teach you how to read and write and martial arts, he also often instilled in you some principles of defending your country and how to behave in society.

Although your father is indeed a bit strict, he is not a good father either," Li Wu agreed. But it is also true that he was over fifty years old to have such a son. If it were someone else, they would probably spoil him to the sky.

However, Qi Jingtong is different. He also wants Senior Qi Jiguang to take on the responsibility of the family.

"My father was indeed a good father. It's just that I was too young at that time and didn't understand his good intentions," Qi Jiguang said with tears in his eyes, and he felt a little nostalgic.

In the past, he always felt that his father was too strict with him. He asked him to learn martial arts and study, and would hit his hands if he did not do well. He felt very wronged at that time.

But now he knows that his father is doing this for his own good.

In front of the sky curtain, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, looked at Qi Jiguang on the sky curtain and said, "I didn't expect that he is the descendant of Qi Xiang. Not bad, not bad. No wonder he looks familiar. He is indeed the descendant of a general."

The ministers remained silent, but slandered in their hearts. What a familiar look he had. They probably even forgot what Qi Xiang looked like.

But he is a member of the Ming Dynasty, so they are naturally happy for him.

Some Ming Dynasty people living in coastal areas even shouted "General Qi", "General Qi is on the sky", and so on in the barrage.

It is not difficult to see that Qi Jiguang is still very popular among the people.

Sky

"Descendants of Qi Jiguang, we are all like this. When we were young, we didn't think so much. It was not until we became fathers ourselves that we realized how difficult it is to be a father," Zong Ze sighed, and many people agreed with him.

Li Wu didn't say anything. She had no objection to this. It was really not easy for her father and mother.

"Ahem," Li Wu coughed twice, shifting everyone's attention to her. "Although the Qi family is from a military family, their family background is very difficult.

In 1544 AD, your father Qi Jingtong was seriously ill. Knowing that he would not live long, he asked you, Qi Jiguang, to go to Beijing quickly to handle the procedures for succession.

But before you could return home, your father passed away. At the age of 17, you inherited the hereditary position of the commander of Dengzhou Guard and began your -year military career.

At the age of 17, you can take on important responsibilities. Senior Qi Jiguang, you are great. For us, 17 is still a child, not even an adult, still young. "

Li Wu said that as long as they are minors, they are still young.

Qi Jiguang smiled and did not respond. What else could he do? His father had passed away and he was the only male in the family. What else could he do if he didn't take up the responsibility?

Zhao Yun and Zong Ze looked at Qi Jiguang and just silently picked up some meat for him as a silent comfort.

In front of the sky curtain, many ancestors felt the same way. This kind of thing was very common. 17 years old was not young for them and they had already started a family. However, starting a career was hard to say as it depended on personal strength and family.

"In 1546, the 19-year-old Qi Jiguang was in charge of the military farming affairs of Dengzhou Garrison.

At that time, the coastal areas of Shandong were seriously threatened by Japanese pirates. Mr. Qi Jiguang wrote the famous poem: "I have no desire to be a marquis, I just hope the seas will be calm."

In 1553, on the recommendation of Zhang Juzheng, Mr. Qi Jiguang began to take over the coastal defense work of Shandong.

It took you only two years to pacify the Japanese pirates in Shandong.

Because of your good military management skills, you were highly valued by the court and were later transferred to Zhejiang where the Japanese invasion was more serious.

After you, Mr. Qi Jiguang, took up your post in Zhejiang, you found that the local soldiers were seriously afraid of the Japanese pirates.

Less than a month after you took office, a group of more than 800 Japanese pirates invaded the mountain gateway to central Zhejiang.

The Ming court mobilized thousands of soldiers to defend the city, and the Japanese pirates divided into three groups and broke into various Ming army units.

The Ming army, which had an overwhelming numerical advantage, was unable to resist and retreated in panic.

The Japanese pirates retreated only after you, Mr. Qi Jiguang, who had just taken office, risked your life to shoot and kill the three leading Japanese pirate leaders.

Those damn days were really hateful.”

Li Wu said with some gnashing of teeth, thinking back to the days when they came to the Central Plains, they were so humble, but later on, they became extremely ambitious.

"Little fairy, calm down, calm down, drink some water, the Japanese pirates have been destroyed," Qi Jiguang saw that the little fairy was angry and was afraid that she would be angry, so he comforted her.

He has been dealing with Japanese pirates for many years, and his hatred for them is no less than that of the little immortal.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry, I'm fine," Li Wu waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

After drinking a little water, Li Wu had already calmed down. She was still able to sort out her emotions and not get so angry that she ended up hurting herself, which would have been counterproductive.

"In 1556, Japanese pirates invaded again. Under the personal command of Zhejiang Governor Ruan E, you, Senior Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou and Taizhou Governor Tan Lun fought together for the first time and defeated the Japanese pirates.

However, due to their reckless and reckless advance and the lack of discipline, the Ming army was almost wiped out.

After the above battles, you, Mr. Qi Jiguang, have also discovered that the old army lacks strict training, the soldiers have poor quality, weak combat effectiveness, and loose military discipline. If a new army is not organized and trained, it will be impossible to resist the well-armed, fierce and ferocious Japanese pirates.

So, Mr. Qi Jiguang, you drafted the "Public Letter from Ren Linguan Requesting the Establishment of a Barracks", and for the first time proposed to your superiors to establish a barracks.

In 1557 AD, Senior Qi Jiguang submitted the "Military Training Ceremony" to your superiors for the second time.

Hu Zongxian had trained soldiers before, but to no avail. After reading your suggestion, Mr. Qi Jiguang, although he was a little unhappy, he also believed in your ability, so he agreed reluctantly.

After reading it, Ruan E was very impressed with you and naturally agreed without hesitation.

So that winter, Ruan E allocated 3,000 Shaoxing soldiers from other units to be trained by you, Mr. Qi Jiguang.

In less than a month, the number of Japanese pirates in Zhoushan area was greatly reduced.

You see, Senior Qi Jiguang, you are very good at training soldiers." The Qi Family Army is still very famous.

"Thank you for the compliment, little immortal," Qi Jiguang said modestly.
