Some people once said that the Qi family army is a very special army in the ancient history of our country, and this is indeed the case. The Qi family army appeared in the context of the decline of the Ming army, and it may not be appropriate to say that the decline is inappropriate, at least the Daming army does not have decent troops deployed along the coast, which will allow the Wukou to take advantage. After the emergence of the "Yiwu Gang", Little Nippon finally saw the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, and they were five people in a group, some holding knives, some holding hooks, and some holding cages, of course, these tricks were only to deal with the murderous and cunning Wokou. Although the DongyingLang people were all masters of swordplay, the Qi family army could still beat them all over the ground to find teeth, which was enough to see the strength of the combat effectiveness.
In the battle between the Qi family army and the Wukou, there was a 0:200 death ratio, that is, 200 Wukou were killed, but there were no casualties on their own side, what a strong combat force! In the battles of Wang Cangping and Xianyou, Qi Jiguang's army defeated more than 10,000 Wukou people, beheaded 1,000 people, and rescued 3,000 ordinary people. In the Battle of Taizhou, the Qi family army rescued more than 5,000 ordinary people and eliminated several thousand Wukou people, while the Qi family army only sacrificed three people. In the Battle of Baishuiyang, the Qi family army fought less and more, annihilated more than 2,000 Wokou, beheaded 345, and the Qi family army sacrificed only three people.
The Qi family army fought more than a hundred times in Fujian, and each time the Wokou were all wiped out, but the number of Qi family troops did not decrease much, and at most a few sacrifices were sacrificed. In several large-scale battles, thousands of Wokou were eliminated in one fell swoop, but none of them were sacrificed. The ratio of casualties between the enemy and the enemy during the War of Resistance against the Qi Family Army reached an astonishing 1,000:1, which is really surprising to have such data, but if you think about it carefully, there is a reason for the Qi Family Army's superiority.
The Qi family army has strict military discipline: those who are sick in the front line are beheaded and shown to the public; those who abandon their weapons in the front line are beheaded and shown to the public. At that time, the Ming army had already used firearms to equip, and every bird wrench in the Qi family army had very strict regulations, the bird wrench had soldiers to protect him, if the bird wrench pistol opened early, he must be executed, if the soldier who protected him did not protect him, resulting in the loss of an excellent bird wrench, the soldier responsible for protecting him must also be executed. If the team escapes, one person retreats and beheads one person, and the whole team retreats and decapitates the captain, and if the captain dies first, the whole team will be beheaded.
There is also a rather interesting rule: whenever the commander of the guard retreats, the captain is allowed to cut the ears of the soldiers, the captain of the armor to cut the ears, the sentry to cut the captain's ears, and the chief sentry to cut the ears of the sentry. Those who do not get up early in the face of thieves are tied up and beaten; urinate during the march and cut off their ears; those who cross their heads and ears are tied up and beaten. Qi Jiajun's silent life in strict and demanding training, occasionally singing military songs, is their greatest pleasure. But I have to say that it is precisely because of this demonic training that a miracle in military history has been created!
Qi Jiajun was once called "the strongest in East Asia", which also benefited from its unpredictable formation, and he had been beheaded while Wokou was still admiring his formation. How powerful is the Qi Family Army's Mandarin Duck Array? I won't leave that into account. But qi jiajun also has times to lose.
Qi Jiajun was actually wiped out in the process of resisting the Qing Dynasty, and the process was very tragic. In 1621 AD, Nurhaci besieged Shenyang, the Ming Dynasty soldiers went out of the city to meet the enemy but were outnumbered, coupled with the sudden riot of the Mongol starving people in the city, got up and defected to Nurhaci, the so-called impregnable Shenyang was quickly breached in one day, and more than 70,000 soldiers and civilians in Shenyang were killed. Only a small number of Qi family troops who successfully broke through in the early days survived, and later the Ming court rewarded them, and the soldiers said with tears, we don't need any treasure, just a chance to avenge our brothers! The officials of the imperial court were extremely moved, and the people were also moved, saying that these soldiers had the "style of a national soldier."
In the Battle of Liaoyang, the Qi family army beheaded more than 200,000 enemy troops, destroyed how many Wokou and Mongol iron cavalry, and made the enemy feel frightened, from ancient times to the present, how many such armies!
