In the smoke and dust billowing in the mountains.
"Go, send out the fastest messenger, and each two horses alternately ride"
Zhou Huaian, who was sitting in the carriage and watching the long line of fish, commanded to the left and right.
"Make sure to go to Guangfu without stopping, day and night.",
"Bring more money and silk. Before entering the General's Mansion, hire people to publicize it..."
"It is said that Ding Hui betrayed the rebels secretly, and the traitors in the collusion army wanted to use Stormrage Camp as a gift to join the army."
"The Stormrage Camp suffered heavy casualties and the force was restricting the place. It is the only way to ask King Huang to preside over justice..."
"Even if you are accused of misreporting military affairs, you must prevent the wicked opponent from suing first..."
"In this way, these people and evidence in our hands will have the opportunity to come in handy."
Speaking of this, Zhou Huai paused.
"We also need to guard against the opponent's unsuccessful back players, so we are here to start..."
"Those who stay behind will start to expand the army on the spot, at least from the garrison and the heavy squad, to make up for the missing army."
"It is possible to deal with the various evidences of right and wrong that follow."
"Try to grasp the land and household registration of Chaoxun and Chaozhou states, as well as the corresponding land output and financial levy..."
"This is our confidence to cope with all changes..."
Of course, there are some things that can't be mentioned directly, such as the condemned theories about the fact that this rebel army is separatist on the spot.
The Eastern Guangdong Plain where Xunzhou is located and the Chaoshan Plain where Chaozhou is located, although compared with the elite areas of Lingdong represented by the Pearl River Delta, the development level and the scale of population settlements are not comparable, and the terrain is relatively fragmented and there are many water systems; It is also one of the few coastal plains in Lingnan that are suitable for human living and farming.
There are also many densely scattered mountains and hills as barriers. Without worrying about threats from the sea, there are only land passages from the upper reaches of the Longchuan River and Meizhou, which can pass large-scale people and horses. During the period, the mountains and forests overlap. In fact, there are many places suitable for building barriers and building barriers for closure.
Although this place lacks the long-term potential and upper limit of development compared to the Pearl River Delta Plain where Guangzhou is located, the rebel forces represented by the Stormrage Camp will be able to renovate, regenerate, and grow the basic plate in the coming year. It is more than enough.
In a sense, this is also an important bargaining chip and basis for gaining corresponding compensation conditions or costs by playing a game with the generals of the Cantonese government when necessary.
Using this time to send troops through the state to retrieve Wang Pan, Zhou Huaian also brought out most of the potential instability factors in the army, or people who were not very trustworthy, and concentrated them. In several teams;
Therefore, when necessary, it can also be said that a strong man's wrist or a gecko's tail is cut to achieve a pure internal effect. Of course, the set of direct physical destruction of opponents is undoubtedly the most stupid method; it will also split and shake the internal army that has been stabilized so easily, and the newly established authority by itself.
Ding Hui and them, who have failed to seize power and are self-defeating, are the best evidence; and now the strength and hearts of the storm camp belong to, they can no longer withstand a new cleansing and a little bit fierce movement. . Therefore, in the absence of obvious criminal evidence and deeds and other reasons, it is best to gather them together and then separate them and treat them coldly, and gradually marginalize them from the system.
For example, on the grounds of important tasks and responsibilities, they are sent out or permanently stationed in a certain place, but in fact they are isolated from the mainstream and influence within the military. From this point of view, modern people who have seen many workplace struggles and office politics undoubtedly have more say and experience.
Among the current five battalions of Longjiang Town Defence Forces, most of the soldiers in the front and rear battalions were brought out by themselves before; therefore, the damage caused by the civil strife was mainly concentrated on the remaining three battalions and the larger number. In the team
The left and right battalion was okay. Because of the spontaneous resistance and confrontation, at least some of the structure was retained. Therefore, Zhou Huai'an directly let Laoguan and Chengda bite, and temporarily took over the corresponding reorganization and reorganization; but Wang Pan The central battalion with the strongest strength and the largest organization under its direct reports became the hardest hit area in the chaos that was cleansed and slaughtered;
Except for a few people who awakened quickly and escaped or fled to other camps to seek help; many soldiers were blocked in the barracks and burned to death, fumigated to death, or hacked to death. Pour and shoot those in the dining hall and camp.
Then, their bodies were directly filled into the ditch nearby, and a large section of the ditch was blocked. So when Zhou Huai'an arranged for people to be buried, many old rebels did it with eyesight, gritted teeth and cursed; therefore, after Zhou Huaian's education in arranging this scene to show up, some people still had objections or were lucky. , And suddenly stopped and settled a lot.
At least when there is a common enemy (external threat) and goal, maintaining a temporary internal unity and cohesion is not a problem at all. After explaining these things, Zhou Huaian saw the former officer's military academy Zhong Yi approaching, and he stopped talking for a while before asking in a low voice:
"In today's situation, it's a great opportunity for managers. Why..."
"Actually... you can just leave it to me to handle it..."
"Of course I know what you said..."
Zhou Huaian interrupted him without hesitation.
"But the most important thing to be a person is not to forget one's roots... and not to be ungrateful..."
"Especially when you want to take over the responsibility of the day, you shouldn't be entangled with these selfishness and small details..."
Seeing the hesitant expression of Ai Ai on the other side's face, Zhou Huaian sighed.
"Or to put it another way, what you are willing to follow is a leader who has no harm in the big festival and has a clear grudge..."
"I'm still a bottomless person who likes to take advantage of a moment and want to get everything by unscrupulous means."
"The head has nothing to do with me, and there is always only kindness first; even if I am in trouble now, I will not resolutely abandon it..."
"Let's not seek to rob him of what he has managed for half of his life..."
Having said that, Zhou Huaian gave him a warning look.
"So as long as you have him for one day, you will always be the master of Camp Stormrage... Don't you think about anything else?"
"It's the villain who thought dumbly and crooked..."
Zhong Yi was a little nervous and busy confessing his mistakes, but he had already changed his mind several times.
"To say these rebellious remarks, please be in charge of the punishment..."
"Then punish you for organizing camp affairs...".
Zhou Huaian decided to arrive immediately.
"And responsible for supervising the aftermath fundraising along the way..."
"Yes..."
Zhong Yi showed a more sincere and frightened expression on his face, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart; at least the other party is willing to continue to use himself, even if it is a punitive nature, it means an attitude of closeness and fancy.
Watching Zhong Yi's departure, Zhou Huaian sighed again; at least most of the words he said just now were from the bottom of his heart; the current Stormrage Camp is already in this chaotic era , To seek an important springboard and foundation for a foothold, but the title of the Lord of Stormrage Camp may not be what he needs; he only needs to have something that he can actually master.
And the highest state of language skills is nine truths and one false, hiding one's own private goods and motives in tall reasons to mislead others; especially when there are unexpected audiences. Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian swept through the corner of his eye meaningfully in a certain direction.
And at the other end of the carriage line of sight, because it is the former officer who is completely worried about Zhong Yi, who is full of bad water, and has made some ghost ideas and moths, and spontaneously followed Wu Xingchen, who was watching and being He pulled over Su Wuming as a precaution; but it was a complex expression facing the coveted face, and then turned into a deep shame and guilt, obviously he was still too small and unreasonable suspicion.
And in Xunzhou City, Wang Pan, who has become a bit late to describe withered, is also working hard to open his puffy eye bags, and try his best to distinguish the blurred figure in front of him; who could have thought that such a heroic and sassy man, Will be overwhelmed by a glass of medicated wine at a banquet with ulterior motives, and in the next series of things, it became what it is now.
