Zheng Lun arched his hands and said: "If the general has orders, just order directly."
Qin Meng laughed and said: "Since ancient times, everything is inferior, but reading is high. Although it is not always true, people who read are taught by saints, have insight into the great road of heaven and earth, and know the strategy of governing the world. If only their literacy ability is used, what is the difference? Pian died among the stables?"
Zheng Lun was a little confused. He looked at Qin Meng with an incredible look in his eyes.
You know, Qin Meng is a military attache, and a relatively low-level military attache.
Let alone the Great Sui Dynasty, from ancient times to the present, almost all military attachés at the level of Qin Meng were full-text blind, and it would be rare if anyone could write his own name.
Unexpectedly, Qin Meng's exit would be elegant words.
Zheng Lun pondered for a moment and said, "What the general said is too exaggerated."
Qin Meng waved his hand and said: "No. The sage said that if you have enough power to practice, you can learn literature. Therefore, the way of the sage is good. Every day, he must examine his body three times. , I just picked out the words, eloquently scribbles a thousand words, there is nothing in my belly. Junwu is prestigious, and bears the burden of humiliation. This trip does not live up to the teachings of the saints."
After Zheng Lun listened, his eyes were filled with tears. He knelt on his knees and put his hands over his head: "The general is full of economy, and Zheng Lun worships me! Those who give birth to my parents know me as the general. The general has his life, but his humble duty is true. The fire is going."
Qin Meng hurriedly pulled Zheng Lun up and said with a smile: "General Zheng, how can this be? What I want you to do is to discuss with you, not to order. I plan to select some young children in the army and let They learn something useful. Would General Zheng be willing to be a teacher?"
Zheng Lun was stunned, and he groaned for a moment: "The humble position said, but the general has his fate. He must die and pay. But the humble position does not understand that the military respects martial arts, and bravery can control the enemy. Generation is not a day’s work. It can be as short as ten years or as long as several decades. What is the consideration of the unknown general
Qin Meng smiled and said: "It is not far away when the son of Shengming, Northern Turkic, and Nanping are all small. When the world is settled, swords and guns are put in the treasury, and the horse is put in Nanshan, the bravery can be like a piece of paper? , Without any words on your chest, how can you shade your wife and son for a long time?"
Zheng Lun was taken aback. When he looked at Qin Meng again, he was as if he saw a monster. Just now, Zheng Lun’s impression of Qin Meng was just a boss with literary talent and connotation. Now it seems that he has a small chest and a belly. There is a world in China.
"The humble post said that the general, but he has his destiny, will pay each other death. This teacher, the humble post has taken over." Zheng Lun said very firmly.
Qin Meng nodded: "Mr. Economics, you can rest assured. However, the young in the army will be mad and rude. I will allocate two staff for you. Just kill it."
It is not Qin Meng's effort to ask people to teach the culture of his subordinates. He had this idea for a long time, but ancient scholars were scarce, and apart from Chaotang, there were not too many high-quality scholars from aristocratic families.
It was with Zheng Lun that Qin Meng was able to realize his wish to let his subordinates study.
Since Qin Meng led the army, he has seen too many farewells.
Therefore, for his subordinates, Qin Meng has the same care for his relatives.
He knows the direction of the history of the Great Sui Dynasty. When the world is stable, too many officers and soldiers have to take off their armor. They have no background and cultural knowledge. These people have no fixed destiny. Like those brothers who died bravely, it would make Qin Meng heartache.
Qin Meng did what he said. He asked Xie Yun to pick two veterans who had gone through the Zhou Pan war, and transferred them to Zheng Lun. After he assigned the thugs, Qin Meng put down the rest and chose sixteen to twenty from the army. The year-old was sent to Zheng Lun to receive cultural education.
Wei Liang was sent to Zheng Lun by Qin Mengte.
Who knows, this kid doesn't like to read, he likes to fight. He said that he was not born to read books and refused to report.
Qin Meng was not polite, first gave a whip, refused to accept, hungry for three days, then beat, finally forced Wei Liang to Zheng Lun.
After dealing with this matter, Qin Meng Caizheng'er put Wuwei Defense on the agenda.
What Qin Meng didn't expect was that after the break of Wuwei City, the county guard was also killed in his post, but the imperial court never made up for this job vacancy.
When I asked Zheng Lun, I realized that he had been concurrently holding two positions. This guy actually held two positions in a row.
Qin Meng was helpless. Had no choice but to take down the post of the county guard.
By convention, Qin Meng should report this situation to Shangfeng and let Shangfeng decide how to deal with it.
But Qin Meng came to Wuwei halfway, and fought fiercely. Although he was not afraid of investigating from above, don't touch the mold on the top at this time. Isn't that uncomfortable
For Qin Meng, military affairs are not a problem at all. All of them are experienced officers. They divide the military affairs into several divisions, and just talk about the requirements.
But when it comes to Wuwei civil affairs, Qin Meng is suddenly very big.
There are too many things involved in people's livelihood, and all aspects must be taken care of.
Wuwei was looted by the Turkic people, almost all property was lost, and nearly half of the population was lost.
Ordinary people are different from the army. The army eats and drinks and the Lazard court takes care of it. The people's expenses are partly allocated by the court to overcome the difficulties, and then immediately put into production and life. After all, the income of the court is also from the ordinary people. Come on.
The yamen are short of manpower, so you can transition to military control.
The key issue. Just lack of food.
The imperial court had food dispatches, but in ancient times, the transportation capacity was extremely low. It is estimated that the people would starve to death several times back and forth if they counted on the allocation of food from other places.
Qin Meng thought about it, the military ration is absolutely unmovable, so the only way to solve the food problem is the wealthy households around Wuwei.
Wuwei is located in the forefront of the northern border of the Great Sui Dynasty, and it is often robbed by Turks. Therefore, many wealthy people are also shrewd and choose secluded and dangerous places to build fortresses and store food and other daily necessities. In the event of a chaos, hiding in it, with the guarding of the wealthy family of strong men, is enough to protect yourself.
Borrow food!
Qin Meng had his thoughts, and immediately sent Wei Da out to inquire. After obtaining the general information of the wealthy households in Wuwei, he immediately sent a letter inviting these wealthy households to a banquet in the city of Wuwei to discuss the plan for restoring the prosperity of Wuwei.
What Qin Meng didn't expect was that the letters were sent out one by one and received very few responses.
Even if there is a reply, it is an excuse that he has just been through the war and is busy with his livelihood. It is really impossible to get out of it. Please forgive me.
One can imagine how angry Qin Meng was.
The officers under Qin Meng's hand, as well as the members of Wuwei County's improvised government team, all gathered together and told them all about their experience of writing letters.
Finally, Qin Meng emphasized that the surrounding grain fields are all destroyed by the war. When the court allocates food, it is undoubtedly impossible to quench the immediate thirst. The most urgent task is to get food quickly.
Qin Meng's officers are not afraid of food shortages, they don't know how to get food, and their thinking is very simple. What is the commander asking me to do. I did what I did, so I didn't speak out aloud.
The officials in charge of the people all had a bitter face. They knew the current situation in Wuwei better than Qin Meng. The grain in the county government was urgently allocated not long ago, and it took less than a month. It's about to bottom out.
Who hasn't done it before collecting food? You can search for the grain that you usually mobilize, so you can go out and get a few carts of grain. Before it enters the warehouse, it will be all divided.
Bo Guan, the master of the house, said: "Master Qin, colleagues in the house, I have basically ran a dozen times where I can collect food. Now even if I scrape the ground three feet, I may not be able to find it. You think of it. The wealthy households in Wuwei’s surrounding area do have food, but these people refuse to borrow food anyway, and they are helpless in their humble position..."
Qin Meng looked at a group of officials and knew that they had also tried their best, but the wealthy households with surplus food were basically similar to the Xiping Wei family, and they were all well-known families with backgrounds.
Local officials came to borrow food, and the better ones were imaginary, and they were polite and politely declined. If it is not good, you will have no choice but to close your door, or even talk badly at the same time.
Seeing that the officials were unable to come up with a good solution, Qin Meng said: "Since you all have no countermeasures, then let me decide.
Guan Xiang looked at his colleagues around him, and said, "The low-ranking class is already poor. If the adults have a way, let's just say it. The low-ranking crowds are the only ones looking ahead."
"Well, I am so relieved that you have such a determination. Now, how much can there be a shortage of food in the treasury?"
"My lord, at present, there is only enough food in the treasury to support ten days. The peak allocation of food is good. It is good if it can arrive in January. It is early autumn and there is no harvest of surrounding particles. You have to stick to it until tomorrow. Calculated, 200,000 catties of grain is the lowest amount that can be supported to reach the summit."
"Well, 200,000 catties... Lord Guan, now in the palace. How many people are there?"
Guan Xiang was stunned, not knowing why Qin Meng's thinking jumped so much, and suddenly asked the manpower of the government office.
"My lord, at present, in the government office, there are six directors, such as the master and the boss, and all kinds of divisions, with 16 divisions under the jurisdiction, and further down, there are more than 80 idle and miscellaneous people."
Qin Meng grinned. The ancient government system was different from the contemporary one. There were fewer bureaucrats, plus one more. For such a large county, there are only a hundred public officials!
"There are more than 30 wealthy households in Wuwei, scattered around Wuwei. In this way, I will assign a task to the six officials, and each will share the five wealthy households in Wuwei. No matter what method is used, each manager must give I got 50,000 catties of grain, so that I can make up 300,000 catties of grain, which is enough to deal with the immediate urgent need."
As soon as Qin Meng's voice fell, the officials were in an uproar.
This acting county guard, thinks things too simple, right? Once the tasks are divided, can we get food? If it's so easy, do you still need to assign tasks? The big guy has collected food for a long time. (End of this chapter)
