"Hey, I can do such a thing..."
Wang Shenchao, who had just returned to Dantu City to rest and rehabilitate, looked a little surprised at the sign erected outside the temporary camp, and his two brothers, Wang Shenzhi and Wang Shengui, were even more stunned.
"What are you talking about, why don't you hurry up and read it..."
The soldiers who couldn't get in beside them couldn't help but screamed
"On the sixth day of April in the fourth year of Wangba, the garrison camp is the latest ration index:"
Only then did Wang Shenchao come to memorize it, and hurriedly opened his voice word by word.
"For every new student, one liter of rice noodles and two buckets of liuhe per ten days (ten days), four catties of dried preserved food, half a catty of salted vegetables, half a can of dried sauce (one catty), plate (coarse) sugar and one plum Bao, half a catty of vinegar and ginger, eight taels of salted suet, three taels of tea powder..."
"For each fire case, one meat and vegetable and one canned dried fruit (three catties weight); each team adds a bucket of cane head. Each brigade gives one stone to dried beans and one basket of salted fish. Fish floss, stone honey, and wine extract. Only for the wounded. No mutual exchange in private..."
"If there is anything wrong, please approve the Committee of Soldiers and Soldiers..."
When I read this, the people around Wang Shenchao couldn't help but talk eagerly and excitedly.
"This is too beautiful,"
"Could it be that you are daydreaming..."
"You should try to shave me..."
"Doesn't the official like this have not tapped and passed the water..."
"What do people want to tap and pass the water? As long as they work hard to reach the corresponding rank, they will naturally have more benefits and benefits corresponding to the ration.. This is not rare. This is called openness and justice, to show selflessness. ..."
An old soldier standing at the bottom of the list sneered while looking at them with some contempt.
"It is said that the Taiping Army is more like the official army than the court official army. Even the life is more comfortable than most official army. This is actually true..."
"Isn't Lao Tzu voted right and earned..."
Then, after receiving their shares one after another, the three brothers began to work out a plan to collect these things together; after all, in addition to basic rations, these pieces of rations are also available in the military and on the market. It's a popular item to barter.
It can even be exchanged for backup weapons and emergency medicines at the mobile service agency in the military, or deposited under a corresponding name to be drawn back to the rear in the future. Of course, more people still use it to "exchange what is needed" with local residents.
The Taiping Army strictly prohibits grabbing or compulsory buying and selling, but fair trade on a voluntary basis to obtain the corresponding price difference of different local properties is not subject to this restriction or even encouragement and support.
Therefore, after the three brothers thought about discussing it for a while, they decided to keep most of the things for personal use, and the payment was deposited in the account of the service company with the army; in the end, only a few cans were saved to find women in private. Cost.
After all, in this unpredictable troubled world, wherever you go, there are women who need part-time jobs to support themselves; the Taiping Army also adopts a limited guidance and standardized management attitude.
This can also prevent the pressure and negative emotions accumulated by the soldiers from being vented to traditional vices such as gambling, fighting, and nuisance to the people, and turning them into new social problems and hidden dangers in the military. On the other hand, it can also minimize the traditional gray forces and the exploits of these poor people.
And the quotations represented by these canned foods outside the city are enough to cover a small family's good family woman for two or three days in turn overnight.
Suddenly Wang Shenzhi saw a team walking in from outside the city gate; most of them looked ragged and timid, but the leader was full of vicissitudes and exhaustion, and looked vaguely familiar. ; He hurriedly called:
"Brother, isn't it the old talisman? He still turned around and came back... It looks like he has brought back a man and horse..."
"Is it possible that the old yellow goat has said that it is true.. It is really hard for anyone to have a good time these years... Even the return to the army can't vote..."
Wang Shenchao is also deeply impressed.
"I have to find him to drink when I look back, so I can tell you about the experience..."
And Fu Cun, who led the team on the street, felt a bit of sorrow and dislocation. Unexpectedly, after the accidents and ups and downs of these days, I still transferred back as a rebel army by mistake;
At first, it was just for survival, and for the time being to unite with the mutinous Suzhou, but I did not expect that in the following days, the affairs of their group would become more and more troublesome; not only did they drive away the newly appointed Suzhou Assassin Zhao Zai almost killed all the Taining soldiers who had crossed the sea, and also took advantage of the situation to looted all the government offices before burning them down.
Therefore, he has no way to turn back; and he has lost the deterrence and suppression of the state government, and Suzhou, which was originally undercurrents, under the jurisdiction of Wu, Kunshan, Changshu, Wucheng, and Changcheng County (Changxing County), almost at the same time. All riots and turmoil.
And the mutinous man he was in soon lost its foothold in the state city; it was counted against the counterattack united by the big family in the city, and forced to leave the city; then, he encountered the so-called General Jinwu and coastal soldiers and horses. Make Zhang Quan's remnant come to seize the city.
Finally, in the chaos of local wars, only for self-preservation and survival, under the banner of the rebels of Taiping belonged to, move closer to the north to see if they can intersect with the opposing soil regiment, official army and thief army. In the gap, get a little respite to gain a foothold.
However, unfortunately and fortunately, they ran into part of the fugitive Hangzhou army; then they captured a lot of personnel and materials in the inevitable conflict, and confirmed their identity as the rebels. However, Fu Cun wanted to leave the crowd again, but he had already missed the most suitable opportunity.
Because immediately a rebel who came after it reunited with it, and took them north to Dantu City to return to life; therefore, there are a hundred words of indisputable existence inside and outside, and they can only accept this reality and error when it is wrong. , And come back obediently to face the consequences.
. . . . . .
In the Dantu's Festival Hall, Zhou Huaian was also sitting in front of the marked big sand table, listening to the latest round of results.
"Nowadays, under the direct control of our army and its subordinates, there are six large and small cities..."
"Eleven cities controlled by other rebels... are distributed in the four states of Chang, Hu, Xuan, and Run..."
"Among them, twelve camps for males and females have been completed; 38,691 people are registered for each of them, and 24,879 are for strong women, widows, and young girls."
"There are three thousand one hundred and fifty-seven people from Zhujiangguan, one thousand two hundred and thirty-nine people from Baigongying... just waiting for the arrival of a new batch of ships..."
"In addition, other volunteers in other cities, as well as the corresponding citizens, women, and craftsmen, have successively transferred them; it is estimated that 24,000 shi, 3,600,000 yuan will be paid to Gumi, plus silk. Around eight thousand paragraphs..."
With the Taiping Army’s invasion and attack to the south, corresponding men’s and women’s battalions will be set up in each city; of course, compared with the traditional rebels’ practice of blindly coercing together regardless of men, women, and children; they have relatively sufficient resources and The manned Taiping Army has developed into a fairly mature system since its development.
In the newly-occupied cities, in addition to providing long-term and short-term paid labor for the front army, the formed men’s battalion is also responsible for recruiting and gathering the poor young and middle-aged to travel to Jiangling, Yuezhou, Tanzhou, Hongzhou and other regions. The basic labor force in the field.
The women’s camp gathers young and middle-aged women who are alone and helpless; they are sent to the rear to participate in the work of the collective workshop, which is also a potential resource for soldier marriage and population reproduction.
As the so-called "people leave their homes and cheap", after these immigrants have moved to new places, they have severed their past social relations and dependence, and they have better grasp and control in order to carry out the transformation of the corresponding division of labor and the shaping of a new life.
At the same time, these immigrants are also used to fill up households to mix sand with the local people who are gathered together, to differentiate and restrict their existence of township, clan plots and potential bonds; to exert the effect of corresponding competition and incentives.
After all, things like love and work, stealing rape and taking advantage of others are part of human potential nature, and will not disappear completely because of their status. Therefore, the relatively strict reward and punishment system and mutual supervision methods in various labor places are also part of human beings. Lubricant essential for good operation.
In addition, there are various craftsmen's halls and Baigongying specializing in crafts, specialists, etc. The former is for the production and construction of the rear, collecting and transporting personnel from various industries; the latter is specially selected and can be directly used as soldiers. Provide the existence of corresponding technical services.
In this way, the potential and profits of war can be continuously explored and enlarged as snowballs. At the same time, after being constrained by a simple collective life, they are also one of the potential candidates for the Taiping Army.
You should know that according to the records in the "New Ji Xiao Book", Qi Jiguang once specially formulated a set of unusually strict and unique recruitment standards, namely "Four Musts and Four Dons."
Four important points: to be standard farmers, to be strong and sturdy, to have a sharp eye, and to be a little scared to see the government.
Four don't: people in the city, including those who have lived in the city, don't; people who have served in government offices; people who are white and over forty years old; don't people who are timid and courageous.
Of course, this is mainly in terms of overall compliance and training costs, for the selection of soldiers in feudal society under the small peasant economy. But there is an industrial worker and collective farm member with better organization, discipline, and collective coordination. After serving as a source of recruits for the Taiping Army, they really look down on these traditional standards.
However, as a second and third line defense force for maintaining public order and preparing for theft and clearing the township along the way and at the local level, it can still provide a temporary supplementary source. After these reports, the participating army and Yuhou all retreated one after another, but Xiao Qi, who was in charge of the detection team, walked up alone to report:
"Xuancheng, Xuanzhou, has already responded... A few days ago, Huang Wang's inner house did have a mess, but the people who interfered in the matter have been dealt with, so the inside has been unknown..."
"I only know that at that time, Huang Hao, a front-wing leader, was suddenly banned and thought about it, and the recruiting army split his tribe... However, he was re-released a few days ago and was dispatched to the Jiangbei Army to re-assemble. People and horses are listening..."
"In addition, although the General Mansion established the system of various female officials only a few years ago, the Cui Sizan was only recently appointed; it is said that she was originally called by Mrs. Cao, but her father was from the military mansion. The great ceremonial envoy and military plane praised Cui Miao, who also served as the companion of Cao Xiaozi..."
"She's still Choi Miu's daughter"
Zhou Huai paused at this moment, and couldn't help but want to admire the courage and determination of the other party.
"So this Cao Xiaoniang came by taking advantage of this opportunity to negotiate a marriage date, but in fact he didn't have to publicly report and declare a private visit..."
This is a little woman who looks rather timid and fearful on the surface. I just ran away so suddenly to send the sheep into the tiger's mouth. Isn't it afraid that I won't admit it after I have eaten and wiped it out
Zhou Huaian was thinking about it, and suddenly smelled a faint scent approaching, but it was a maiden model and reported in a low voice.
"Cui Sizan and Cao Xiaoniang, both have settled in the back hall..."
"Are there any shortages and petitions..."
Zhou Huaian asked in a low voice.
"Not for the time being..."
Yao Niang also responded with a gentle tone.
"It's just that I hope to make an appointment with Lang Jun for a suitable reunion period..."
"My mother, guess according to your thoughts as a woman..."
Zhou Huaian asked softly, embracing the soft and well-proportioned body of Yao Niang with his backhand.
"Do you think this person has any other intentions and inner feelings for coming here..."
"Slave...Slave also feels...Between words and deeds, the little lady seems to have admiration and expectations for Lang Jun..."
Hearing this, Yao Niang was slightly moved and touched, but she gently bit her lip and said.
"It's also Guan Nu asking about Lang Jun's new lyrics and music..."
"What... There is still this kind of thing..."
Zhou Huaian was surprised, and even the claws of Lushan who routinely enjoyed the wonderful Lushan paw on her stopped.
Could it be that those handed down works that I routinely threw out to pretend to be forced, accidentally touched the gentle and wandering heart of a certain literary girl? This is a breakthrough that can be explored a little. Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian suddenly had a plan in mind, and whispered to her:
"I have the first "Sapphire Case" that hasn't been released yet. You can take it and ask her for advice..."
After that, there was no need for Zhou Huai'an to struggle with anything; only the second day, there was an urgent document sent by the Jiangbei General’s Mansion; publicly this Cao Xiaomao was Huang Meijun, and both the Quan Taiping Army and the Jiangnan Rebels declared comfort. ; And will continue to send 10,000 brocades, 4,000 cows and horses, 16 million yuan, etc., as rewards and consolation in his possession.
Although the Taiping Army has gained a lot after taking down the Dantu, it doesn't care much about the value represented by these rewards; but at last it is slightly better than nothing. In addition, 800 ritual guards with armors and staffs, 128 maids, 366 maidservants, and fifty carts of supplies and equipment cages were sent as the basic ostentation. And for daily life.
But more importantly, at the same time that the wooden clamp system ordered the recall of the Nanlu Volunteers under the command of Hong Kong, Zhou Huai'an and the Taiping Army were also awarded with the yellow silk, a name of "temporary control of the military of the volunteers in Jiangnan."
"Since the east wind has arrived, but how long will Jiang stay..."
Afterwards, Zhou Huaian announced loudly to the group of subordinates who had gathered again.
"I am willing to go through all fire and water from the ambition to lead the army at all costs..."
Most people responded in unison. (End of this chapter)
