At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 52: Calm down the resentment and Chu Zhaonu
  Zhou Zhang, who was originally discussing the purchase of war horses with Xiang Biao, heard about this and took Chen Gang to Xu Fan. He said with a headache: "My lord, these prisoners of the Qin army are already grateful to our rebels for being alive. How can you give prisoners to the Qin army?" Such high treatment.”

Xu Fan smiled bitterly and said: "I gave this treatment to the prisoners of the Qin army because I wanted them to train soldiers for our rebel army, but I didn't expect that it would cause dissatisfaction among the rebel soldiers."

Xu Fan now also knows that he did something wrong. His original idea was very simple. First, it meant that the horse bones would attract some talents. Second, it was influenced by later generations. In later generations, migrant workers often appeared on the Internet. With a salary of 3,000 yuan and a job worth 30,000 yuan, now that he has taken power, he has a bit of a rebellious mentality. He believes that these prisoners must be paid in full to work for the rebels. He never thought that the rebel soldiers would be dissatisfied.

Sure enough, the democratic centralism of later generations is reasonable, and there will be problems if things are decided without consultation.

Zhou Zhang said calmly: "Now we have to find a way to quell the dissatisfaction of the soldiers."

Chen Gang thought for a while and said: "The soldiers are not dissatisfied with the high salary of the Qin Army instructors. How about we cancel this salary to quell their dissatisfaction."

Zhou Zhang immediately said: "No, if the order is changed at night, the lord's reputation will definitely decline. How can we command the rebel army?"

Zhou Zhang thought for a while and said: "The craftsman camp is not making rebel clothing these days. The lord can distribute these clothes to quell the dissatisfaction of the rebel soldiers."

After the rebels occupied Xiang County, the core task was to improve the combat effectiveness of the rebels. In addition to training the rebel soldiers, other family members who followed the rebels also had a lot to do.

The families of the rebels were all organized. They were based on miles, and under the leadership of craftsmen such as Big Hammer, they helped the rebels build their own weapons and equipment, including the goods and ordnance their respective rebels needed.

The Qin Dynasty had to say that he was a war machine that transcended the times. In this era, they had already developed a simple assembly line, and now this production method was moved to the rebel army by Xu Fan.

Arrange a few craftsmen in each camp to guide the people in production. Take the long arrow as an example. This is the most consumed weapon on the battlefield, but the entire rebel army only has 5 in stock. For those born with a phobia of insufficient firepower, this long arrow is too few. Yes, the rebels will have 50 long arrows, or even more long arrows.

To produce a long arrow, you need someone to cut down the trees, split the trees into small pieces, and then polish them into arrow shafts bit by bit. You also need iron construction to make the arrowheads. Big hammers disperse these steps among various steps. Such a long arrow production line with thousands of people can produce tens of thousands of long arrows every day.

In addition to the long arrow production line, there are also spear production lines, leather armor production lines, wooden armor production lines, military uniforms, and cloth shoe production lines among the rebels. It can be said that the entire Xiang County has become a primitive industrial production county.

Among them, Xu Fan paid special attention to the military uniform production line. There were very few well-dressed soldiers among the rebels, and almost everyone was in tatters. These soldiers formed an army wearing such clothes and looked like an army of beggars. Xu Fan had always wanted Change this.

After arriving in Xiang County, with tens of thousands of pieces of cloth in hand, Xu Fan simply organized the women and children of the rebel army to help the rebel soldiers cut clothes. He used the assembly line method of later generations to draw the sleeves, trunk, etc. of the clothes, and then cut them first. Stitching makes a piece of clothing very fast, and now these military uniforms are almost complete. It just so happens that the soldiers' grievances can be calmed with the help of military uniforms.

The next day, each of the rebel soldiers was given two sets of military uniforms and two pairs of thousand-layer shoes. The soldiers happily changed into new clothes. These clothes were worth 3000 yuan, equivalent to dozens of stones of food. Now the rebel soldiers finally stopped wearing They thought that Xu Fan favored the prisoners of the Qin army, and everyone's grievances were calmed.

Xu Fan also breathed a sigh of relief. It is really not an easy task to manage 20,000 people. In order to enrich the nightlife of the rebel soldiers, Xu Fan also collaborated with Zhou Zhang to produce "Chu Zhaonu" based on his own memory of "Meng Jiangnu, Crying the Great Wall". The performance was similar to later operas and dramas. After only one day of rehearsal, Xu Fan performed the newly released "Chu Zhaonu" to the rebel soldiers. This caused a huge sensation, and many soldiers cried through it.

The world has been in chaos for hundreds of years, especially during the horrific Warring States Period. Ordinary people either died as soldiers on the battlefield or as civilians on the roads transporting food.

How crazy the war was during the Warring States Period. Everyone only needs to know that in the Battle of Changping, the troops mobilized by Qin and Zhao exceeded one million levels. The ability of all countries in the world to mobilize troops is probably between 200 million and 300 million. , no one does not fight, every day does not fight, this is the environment of the Warring States Period.

The world was finally unified, and the people all over the world thought that they had survived the hell-like chaos of the Warring States Period, and that the time of peace was about to come.

But the First Emperor failed to live up to the expectations of the people. After unifying the six kingdoms, he did not stop his conquests. He conquered Baiyue in the south and attacked the Xiongnu in the north. Internally, he built the Chi Road and straight roads, and built the straight roads and built the Great Wall. During the more than ten years of the unification of the world, the wars never ended, the corvee never stopped, and their relatives died one by one in the great cause of the First Emperor.

The story of "Chu Zhaonu" is their story, and the rebel soldiers can easily be brought into it, which arouses the sadness and anger of all the soldiers. The soldiers are sad about their suffering and angry at the First Emperor and the Qin State who brought them suffering.

Then the stage play of "Chu Zhaonu" invited the people of Xiang County to watch it, which also aroused the sadness of the entire Xiang County people. It was like performing their own story, and the people could easily take part in it.

Zhou Zhang, who saw this scene at the back of the stage, said excitedly: "There is hope for the restoration of our country, Chu."

It has been more than ten years since the Chu Kingdom was destroyed. People like Zhou Zhang have been trying to revive their country, but they have not achieved any results in these more than ten years. Why?
  It goes without saying that the Qin State is powerful, but at this time there were only 3000 Qin troops in Chen County, and the Qin Army in the entire Chu region could not exceed 2 people. However, these 2 Qin troops suppressed millions of people in the Chu region. The nobles of Chu State As long as one-tenth of the people were mobilized, it would be enough to drive out the Qin army and revive the Chu state.

But Zhou Zhang and others could not do this. As an occupier, the Qin State was naturally brutal in the Chu land, but they established a more organized and orderly society than the Chu State. The people of the Chu land could still tolerate it. .

Being the common people of the Qin State will become prisoners at every turn, but how good do you think it will be to be the common people of the Chu State? The nobles of the Chu State are also the same thing, even worse than the Qin State. The Qin State at least has a military meritorious service. However, in the Chu State, the common people will always be the common people, and the slaves will always be the slaves. They have to serve as soldiers, farmers, and slaves for the Chu nobles, and after their deaths, they have to bear human sacrifices.

　Let me talk about the matter of giving Gao Lu a prisoner to the Qin army. When I wrote this paragraph, I thought of the Geneva Convention, the 8-hour work system, and the salary and benefits, which are equivalent to ridicule for today's workers, so I added this paragraph. After being reminded by readers, I realized that it was a bit out of date, but it was difficult to change. I can only add some explanation.

　　But when I took a closer look, I discovered that there is a reason why our military treats experts preferentially. When you don’t know anything, you can only improve the treatment of those who are capable.

　　What is the current situation of the rebel army? Among the 5000 soldiers, there are only a few dozen professional soldiers. In this case, it is okay to give preferential treatment to those with military skills, but the preferential treatment is too much.
