To be honest, Zhou Huai'an really didn't expect to meet such an old acquaintance here; especially since the farewell in Guangzhou, he really missed it for a limited amount of time, so he turned it into a biomarker.
"General Governor, is there anything wrong?"
Yang Shigu seemed to be aware of something in his tone, and asked calmly.
"It's not a bad thing, but maybe it will be useful to the political security team..."
Zhou Huaian lost his voice. And his slight movement seemed to make the crowd feel something, and the temperature of watching singing and dancing became more eager and expected.
"Political Security Team? Is there anyone who dares to fight back injuries on this occasion, and do that desperate thing?"
Luo Yin frowned slightly; this made those who were carefully looking and observing him secretly, suddenly speculating and guessing.
The political security team is now the internal security department of the Taiping Army’s chief governor. It is also under the special (special) work (work) committee (member committee), and is the fourth semi-open after the social mediation department, the enemy industrial department, and the suppression committee. Strong sector
As the name suggests, it is mainly to provide the corresponding personal safety and peripheral security guarantees for the middle and high-level personnel of the Taiping Army; the predecessor originated from the Chaoxun generation of the Sanjiang Army, and under the rear camp establishment for some non-combatants, when carrying out activities in the local area Please provide temporary protection.
The main task was to transfer personnel from the apprentice team and the directly-affiliated team; later, after gaining a foothold in Canton and becoming bigger, it further expanded the scope of corresponding functions and audiences; it became a normal dispatch mechanism.
The main reason is that the Taiping Army's training of corresponding administrative backbones and experienced manpower is quite precious, but it is easy to implement and implement government orders in the grassroots townships, and it is counterattacked and reversed by the traditional old forces and the remnants of the government, resulting in deaths and injuries.
Therefore, a group of relatively strong-willed and well-thought capable soldiers has been specially selected to serve as the escort mission and emergency support needs of corresponding activities, so as to reduce the probability of sneak attacks by stubborn hostile elements during grassroots activities.
Later, after the Taiping Army came out of the mountain, the scope of activities from south to north became larger and wider, and the cards that needed to be governed and cleared became wider and wider; and more and more officials and clerks were dispatched to local governments to preside over the situation and act as officials. The original transfer system is somewhat inadequate.
So just after Huang Chao's expedition to Jiangdong and Huainan returned to the Daping Rebellion, he learned from the pain and set up such a rather low-key but not well-known department. It is dedicated to provide corresponding active (open) or passive (secret) security work for people of the corresponding level and exclusive tasks in the system.
Therefore, in the specific training and mode of action, it gradually decoupled from the original color of the army; there is no need to emphasize the courage and fierceness of charging into the battle, and there is no need to highlight the strong offensiveness of armor and sharpness. Begin to emphasize the execution and completion of tasks under unobtrusive conditions.
And it is required to have enough keen and detailed observation and perception, and an experienced way of adapting to changes; and good at using all kinds of short soldiers and protective gear, even using indirect lethal equipment, to deal with any possible threats. confrontation.
Therefore, as the last lingering breath of the Tang Dynasty Ranger in this era. Those old and new rebels who had worked as rangers and green forest heroes, guardians of martial arts, and even sluggish activities in the chaotic world were also specially selected to serve as instructors of close combat and weaponry skills, and An imaginary enemy that simulates confrontation.
Later, the presence of monks in the Zen gate, local generals, and other fields joined one after another, and brought some fist and clubs, fitness exercises, and medical treatment inheritance, so the personnel in the specialized fields gradually became Enriched, and extended to other departments such as enemy labor, social media, and anti-rebellion.
Therefore, in a sense, these specially appointed and regularly rotating guards are also another insurance measure and safety valve in a sense; once these candidates who may have confidential content or key positions, what will be shaken Or signs of rebellion, you can also take measures to stop the loss and remedy the first time.
After all, it is different from the traditional guards with heavy personal colors in the past. From the beginning, the seedlings with the strongest words are selected, and they have been instilled with lofty ideas and lofty goals for a long time. Most people find it difficult to buy. And bewitching, or the cost is unbearable.
In other words, they may have problems with formal dogma and rigidity, but they are superior to most Taiping sergeants in terms of loyalty and action. Therefore, nowadays, the Metropolitan Government has corresponding allocations from top to bottom to the key cities and towns under the local counties.
In total, there are five brigades (regiments), and they are also responsible for the training of personnel and expertise of other departments such as the Town Rebellion Committee, the Enemy Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Social Reconciliation; because after the Taiping Army gradually controlled the Wunan Land, it also A number of corresponding closed areas and venue layouts are specially designated in Hunan to simulate confrontation exercises in various situations.
Among them, on the basis of the invisible line of defense formed by these manpower, there are carefully selected artillery and combat fighters, matched with the veterans of the army who have experienced many battles; forming a combat team that is good at offensive defense, while targeting potential at any time Dangerous objects and suspicious targets will be suppressed and captured by a powerful force.
Therefore, compared with the left-center-right direct camp (direct-affiliated team) who needs to follow the coach to charge left and right and serve as the seeds of the reserve team, the honorary force and the disguised non-commissioned officer regiment; they play a greater role in the city and the building. The accompanying time is also more.
Obviously it was time for them to come in handy this time.
You must know that in normal times, because Zhou Huai'an is traveling and appearing in public, there are armored men and chariots and horses who greet each other. At other times, they stay in the well-protected government office to meet the directors, or the backyard gardens. Among them, there is basically no time for these highly equipped elite personnel to play a role.
On the contrary, the security work and corresponding tasks dispatched to the officials and important personnel under them have repeatedly triggered alarms and made contributions. After all, the actions of the Taiping Army have almost destroyed the roots and foundations of an entire old class with vested interests.
Whether it is due to the public and private righteousness of the hatred of the country and the family, from the beginning to the end, there is always no shortage of people who are unwilling to withdraw from the stage of history, but want to fight hard when they are at home broken and dying. Therefore, in some areas where conflicts are high or banditry is rampant, corresponding members are often sent to join the "three teams."
In this way, in addition to dealing with some possible sporadic attacks and retaliation, once a major crisis or serious obstacle is encountered, the relevant people can also use their skills and a certain probability to rush out to report and obtain rescue.
"No hurry, let's just watch the changes first... Trust the methods and determination of our Taiping soldiers. Maybe there are other surprises."
Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian spoke broadly to him. Because in his expanding induction, something else was discovered.
At this time, the singing and dancing off the field changed again, leaving only the sound of weeping shakuhachi playing, and the dancers who left behind the scenes again sang the charming "Southern Yangtze River" in the voice of the female girl around the beam. Plucking Lotus
"If the girl picks lotus flowers by the river,
Laughter across the lotus, everyone talks.
Rizhao's new makeup is bright,
The wind is fragrant and lifts in the air.
Who on the shore You Yelang,
Three three five five reflect the weeping poplar.
The purple liu hissed into the flower,
Seeing this hesitated. "
In line with the singing, silver bells rang, and a white dress with narrow sleeves, curvy waist, plain yarn and pink borders like lotus petals, swirling and swaying out of several new dancers; I saw their simple but elegant and beautiful arms and legs. In the meantime, it's like dancing the "Lotus Step Dance" like a bud swaying gracefully in the wind.
Twisting the flamboyant skirts and dance steps with the wind, the thin waist and the low tapestry bust, the snow-white feet covered only with silver bell chains, it has a different flavor than before. And Zhou Huaian couldn't help but sigh, as if his other little hobby was also revealed.
And in the darkening outer space of Wanghailou, the armored guards on duty and whistle on the high platform; also lies in another group of teams wearing lock vests, crowns, crossbows and short guns, with special After the gesture communication and the completion of the handover, they began to quietly and quickly control the carriages, riders, and servants waiting in the audience.
Then, this new team was like a clear current, infiltrating and infiltrating from the bottom of the Wanghai Tower, everything where the door window is located, and then leaning against the wall in the gesture. Banfu lowered his body and made a gesture of listening on the screen.
Then, there were some people who were as healthy as ape-like ape, just like that, amidst the echoes and cheers in the hall, they supported each other and climbed up to the upper level in a flash. Then amid some fleeting exclamations, it disappeared under the corridors, railings and outer eaves.
At this time, the singing and dancing in the hall stopped again, and one of the elder representatives, the oldest and beard and hair-like elder, began to toast and bow tremblingly, slowly speaking and congratulating:
"Only hope that the governor's life, Jinkang, and grace will be extended, and be reached by all..."
"Okay, but if my life is prolonged, then what should you guys do? Do you just go down to eighteen levels of hell to be your company..."
Zhou Huaian, who should have stood up for a little courtesy, smiled motionlessly from his seat.
—I am the dividing line —
In the Jiangling City in the rear, in the Yanei branch of the chief governor, some people hurriedly said in front of the first person of the Federation of Government Affairs who is now staying in the rear, the Governor of Xiang and Cao Shi Fan Chuo.
"Gong Fan! Don't you have any thoughts about this matter... You are the first veteran who is valued by the governor among the subordinates in the governor's mansion..."
"Nowadays, most of the high positions in the local government at all levels are those who belonged to the former rebel army, let alone those retired soldiers who changed their jobs to renew their posts."
"My ancestors have been born, but they can only sink into subordinates one after another. They have worked so hard on their qualifications and status, and have to be constrained by these crude and innocent people.
"The local people in Jinghu are complicated. If you are not tyrannical, you can't be stable. It's just that you need to be in charge of the other generation of martial arts. But the five states of western Zhejiang are going down in a flash, just when there is an urgent need to hire people to manage and rectify.
"Everyone is watching eagerly, just wait for your words, you will have the backbone..." (End of this chapter)
