The disgraced official I took care of was actually Zhu Houcong's childhood friend.

Qi Jiguang fought countless battles throughout his life, and his achievements cannot be described as merely brilliant.

In Zhou Chu's view, it was nothing short of a miracle.

In the Battle of Flower Street, 1,500 men faced 4,000 Japanese pirates, killing 308 enemy soldiers and losing 3, resulting in a casualty ratio of 1:103.

In the Battle of Shangfengling, 1,300 men ambushed 3,000 Japanese pirates, killing 300 and losing 3, resulting in a casualty ratio of 1:100.

In the Battle of Baishuiyang, 1,500 men faced more than 2,000 Japanese pirates, annihilating the enemy with only three deaths, resulting in a casualty ratio of 1:700.

In the Battle of Lindun, 6,000 men faced 4,000 Japanese pirates, annihilating approximately 3,000 pirates while suffering 90 deaths, a casualty ratio of 1:44.

In the Battle of Pinghaiwei, 30,000 Qi Jiguang's army annihilated 10,000 Japanese pirates, killing 2622 enemy soldiers and 16 dead, with a casualty ratio of 1:163.

In the Battle of Xianyou, 3,000 soldiers of Qi Jiguang's army faced 15,000 Japanese pirates. 1498 Japanese pirates were defeated, one was captured alive, and 24 were killed, resulting in a casualty ratio of 1:62.

There are countless similar cases.

Even compared to Qi Jiguang's achievements in fighting against Japanese pirates, his achievements in guarding Jizhou were even more remarkable.

Historical records state that in the seventeenth year of the Jizhou Garrison, ten generals were replaced, most of whom were dismissed for crimes. Ji Guang served in the garrison for sixteen years, during which time border defenses were improved and the Jizhou Gate was peaceful and prosperous.

Qi Jiguang accomplished all the tasks that the previous ten generals couldn't handle.

Qi Jiguang not only defended against it, but also achieved an incredibly brilliant record.

In his previous life, Zhou Chu was utterly shocked when he saw these data.

These data are still vivid in my mind.

How Qi Jiguang managed to achieve such a terrifying casualty ratio became a question in Zhou Chu's mind.

So they began to study it carefully.

Research revealed that Qi Jiguang's ability to maintain such a terrifying record was partly due to his application of military strategy, but more importantly, it stemmed from two words: troop training.

This is something that countless generals have overlooked.

Han Xin, the "God of War," emphasized military training, which is why he is considered a military genius.

The two military books are very detailed, covering everything from how to select and train soldiers, how to appoint generals, rewards and punishments, weapons, and archery, providing a comprehensive and step-by-step guide to training soldiers and fighting battles.

Qi Jiguang even wrote more than a dozen articles on how to deal with a deserter, going into great detail.

It can be described as a comprehensive military treatise.

If Sun Tzu's Art of War is like the general outline in a martial arts novel, then these two military treatises are like the specific moves.

Later, almost all the so-called famous generals of the Qing Dynasty read these two military books.

Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang were always carrying books.

However, Zhou Chu did not go into all the details, nor did he mention the two military books.

He thought that he should wait for Qi Jiguang to write these two military books himself later.

Zhou Chu then combined the training methods of later armies and special forces to comprehensively explain to Mu Yunjin the importance of training and military discipline.

Actually, Zhou Chu originally didn't want to go into such detail.

But Mu Yunjin's thirst for knowledge was irresistible, and she kept asking questions.

"Why would a girl like you need to learn these things?"

Zhou Chu said with a hint of helplessness.

"I will lead troops into battle in the future."

Mu Yunjin said earnestly.

The Ming Dynasty allowed women to command troops, such as Qi Jiguang's wife and Qin Liangyu, the last capable female general of the Ming Dynasty.

Although their numbers were far fewer than those of male generals, each of them was a veritable goddess of war.

There was a reason why Qi Jiguang was afraid of his wife.

"Are you serious?"

Only then did Zhou Chu begin to take Mu Yunjin's dedication to leading troops into battle seriously.

"Of course, I know that my second brother will definitely do great things in the future. Although I don't know what you will do or how you will do it, I want to help you."

Mu Yunjin looked at Zhou Chu and said.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chu couldn't help but marvel at how perceptive the girl was.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. I spend so much time with this girl, it's not surprising that she could notice.

She's precocious.

Many times, when Zhou Chu was reading and practicing calligraphy alone in the study, this girl would try to relax her tense nerves.
