Chapter 26: Prepare soldiers and train horses, waiting for fighters
Zhou Qi naturally had no objection to Mo Zizai's proposal, but he had some different opinions on the arrangements of the soldiers of the Imperial Direct Secretariat, "Prince, I want all of these thousand Imperial Direct Secretariats to be converted into physical cultivation."
"Change into physical practice?"
Mo Zizai pondered for a moment. In this world, the practice system can be roughly divided into two types, one is physical cultivation, and the other is profession other than physical cultivation.
Like some sword cultivators, gun cultivators, sword cultivators, etc., that is just a direction they are good at. Only after they understand the intention can they be truly divided. However, no matter how they divide, they are also a type of warrior of true qi, and are considered a sub-category below a major category.
But physical cultivation is different. People call it a stupid and stupid physical cultivation, only cultivating the body, not the true qi.
So they were different from those warriors who practiced true qi from the beginning. After the orthodox warriors practiced true qi, they began to absorb the qi into their body and formally practiced true qi.
There is only one path for physical cultivation, that is, constantly strengthening the body. Therefore, strictly speaking, there is only one state of physical cultivation, that is, the Pill of Mind.
Such physical cultivation does not have so many fancy methods to fight the enemy, and it will not have any intention, so it is naturally not strong. In addition, they can only be considered as Dingdan realm, so the speed of absorbing true qi is not fast. If there is less true qi, the body training will naturally not be fast.
Of course, they also have other ways to make up for it, that is, they can improve their cultivation by pursuing their bodies, but this method will not be of much use in the later stage.
Therefore, it is difficult to cultivate to a high-grade level in this world. Their realm, compared with the realm of true qi warriors, is also classified as the sixth grade, namely the ninth grade body tempering, the eighth grade essence refining, the seventh grade bone forging, the sixth grade marrow cleaning, the fifth grade Vajra, and the fourth grade martial god.
However, although the sixth level was divided, most of the strongest physical practitioners were only the sixth level marrow cleaning realm, there were very few fifth-level Vajras, and the fourth-level martial gods had never heard of them.
That's why they named the fourth grade directly the Martial God, which means that the path of physical cultivation will be completed when it reaches the fourth grade. They have never thought about the first three grades.
The reason why there are still candidates for physical cultivation that are so difficult to practice is that in addition to being able to rely on hardships to improve one's own strength in the early stage and economical benefits, there is also an advantage that a warrior who cultivates true qi cannot match.
That is, the strength of physical cultivation lies in their own body, and they will not be suppressed by the military formation.
The reason why this world is not respected by warriors is because of the existence of military formations.
A warrior who cultivates true qi, even the strongest person in the fourth-level human realm, will instantly drop to a level when facing a large army of organization. If the number of troops is large or more elite, the strength of the human realm power may drop even more.
But physical cultivation cannot be done. Their strength is all integrated with their own body and their physical body is strong, so they will not only not be suppressed on the battlefield, but will instead be like fish in water.
Therefore, the most common one for elite troops in the army is physical cultivation. Of course, because physical cultivation is too difficult, most of them are the lowest-level physical cultivation, and they only stay in the body tempering realm.
Now, Mo Zizai was a little hesitant about Zhou Qi's attempt to build Yuzhishi into an elite army.
In his vision, physical cultivation must be available, but the priority must be put first and then, because physical cultivation is a bit weak, and at the same level, physical cultivation faces a warrior who cultivates true qi, which is a dead end and cannot escape.
Therefore, in small-scale battles, physical cultivation is at a disadvantage. Only when they become a member of the organization and use a unit of hundreds or even thousands of people can they exert their maximum strength.
But Mo Zizai wanted to deal with the big bosses in the court in the early stage, so there must be the most small-scale conflicts. If this is the case, then the warriors like Yuzhishi who have become physical cultivation will be of no use.
After all, just to capture a corrupt official, you can't just push up a thousand people. Let's not talk about whether the movement is too big, even a thousand people can't be dispelled.
But if there are fewer people and not enough strength, you will definitely suffer a loss when you encounter some people who resist stubbornly.
Mo Zizai gently tapped his fingers on the table, measuring the pros and cons of this matter in his heart. After a while, he seemed to think of something, and a trace of splendor flashed in his eyes.
"The number of 1,000 people alone is still a little small. Turn all 2,000 people into physical cultivation. Since it has finally disappeared from everyone's sight, then treat them as a hidden trump card."
If one does not have a long-term plan, there will be immediate worries. Because there is the Yulin Army guarding the capital, no one in the court dares to rebel openly, but it is hard to say what the situation is in the capital. Therefore, Mo Zizai needs to leave a strong trump card to deal with the sudden crisis.
Now it seems that these two thousand Imperial Guards who disappeared from others' sight are undoubtedly the best choice.
"All two thousand people have been converted to physical cultivation? Prince, is this a bit inappropriate?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qi subconsciously shook his head, because he didn't know Mo Zizai's plan. All his plans were to pick out the thousand people with poor strength and turn them into physical cultivation, and the remaining thousand people helped Mo Zizai handle some things.
But now, if all two thousand people have been converted to physical cultivation, there are no people under Mo Zizai who can be used.
Mo Zizai stood up and waved his hand, "These two thousand people from Yuzhiji let them practice with peace of mind, and I will find a way to deal with human affairs."
"By the way, you can prepare and add a new department to Yuzhiji. If you have the name..."
Mo Zizai pondered for a moment, then said, "Just call Dongchang."
After saying this, Zhou Qi, who was a little puzzled, turned around and walked out.
...
After leaving the room, Mo Zizai went directly to find Jia Fu. He had a temporary idea of establishing the East Factory, but after thinking about it carefully, it was the most appropriate situation in the current situation.
There are two imperial palaces in Tianjing, one is Shangyang Palace that Mo Zizai had just visited. This is the earliest imperial palace in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is relatively small in scale, with only six more core palaces, namely Guanfeng Hall, Huacheng Courtyard, Linzhi Courtyard, Fenfang Hall, Yanying Hall, and Shangyang Palace Museum.
The other one is the Daming Palace, which was later built. Compared with the area of Shangyang Palace, the Daming Palace is more than three times larger. As the area is larger, the number of manpower required will naturally be more.
Mo Zizai's father had attended court in the Daming Palace before. When he was in power, there were not ten thousand eunuchs in the Daming Palace, but eight thousand.
After Tang Weiyi ascended the throne, she moved to Shangyang Palace to work and replaced the eunuchs with a female official, and the original eunuchs were basically unemployed.
Thousands of eunuchs, except for people from some important departments, were all idle in the palace and swept and sanitation every day. For Mo Zizai, this was really the biggest waste of talent.
You know, Da Nei is a place where there are thousands of eunuchs, and there are quite a few who have cultivation.
Because in addition to the Yulin Army, they were also the last line of defense to protect the palace, so in the Great Zhou system, eunuchs were never forbidden to practice martial arts, and many had strong cultivation.
