Chapter 2606 Sangyuan Wai

Hou Wenyong has been really depressed recently. He came from a secretarial background, and Chief Ma had arranged for him to be gilded in the position of chief of the "Most Important County". However, he didn't work for long, and he was transferred by Chief Liu to take over before he achieved any results. Chief Xiao Zhang's position as Secretary-General is euphemistically called "to make the best use of people." Once Chief Zhang came, Nanhai County had nothing to do with him, and he was completely beaten back to his original shape.

That day Hou Qing came to his residence to visit his only relative, and seeing that he seemed worried, he asked him what was the matter.

Hou Wenyong carefully told Hou Qing what was on his mind, and Hou Qing comforted him: "Brother, you are still young, this setback is nothing. If it were placed in the previous dynasty, it would have been our Hou family's responsibility to be a scholar at your age." My ancestors have accumulated virtues. I often heard Chief Lin say that to be a man, you should 'be broad-minded and make appointments, accumulate thickly and make thin hair'. Everyone in the system knows that you are Chief Ma's personal secretary. It is not a good thing for you to suddenly occupy a high position. This time, Chief Zhang arranged for all departments to send people to the grassroots soon after he took office, and A Liang and I were on the list. You didn’t do this when you were in office, which shows that your ability and knowledge still need to be improved. Later If you have the opportunity, I think you should apply to practice at the grassroots level for a few years."

Hou Wenyong was a little depressed, and said: "When we first entered the city, there was a lot of waste waiting to be done, and there were so many things to deal with every day, I really couldn't spare time to go to the grassroots."

Hou Qing shook her head. As a woman, her mind should be more careful, and she is also much older, much more mature than Hou Wenyong.

Hou Qing said: "It has nothing to do with you whether you can go down to the grassroots level. Why are you still thinking about this matter? You look at your top and left and right, they are all chiefs. You are a small cadre, and there is no chief executive Ma. How can you coordinate things well?" These big leaders? They are too strong to offend people, and they are too weak to do things. This kind of just right skill can't be achieved without decades of training. Listen to my sister, calm down, and sharpen yourself .”

When Hou Wenyong thought about it, this was indeed the case, and his heart was relieved a lot.

Hou Qing said again: "I think you are not young anymore. If you put it in the past, your children should be able to make soy sauce. They all say to start a family and start a business, start a family and start a business, start a family first, and then start a business. My sister will tell you about the marriage if she sees it." .”

Hou Wenyong said: "Sister, I'm not in a hurry. It's you, when are you going to get the certificate with Brother Liang?"

A blush appeared on Hou Qing's face, "Look at him."

A week later, two large boats were moored at the Tianzi Ferry Terminal in Guangzhou. More than a dozen officials from Nanhai County gathered here, and a team of the National Army was in charge of security.

Zhang Xiao touched the Glock pistol that had just been serviced, and he had three extra clips on him.Although he was escorted by the national army, he felt more at ease with this old friend.

With the pistol inserted into the holster, Zhang Xiao issued an order: "Let's go!"

"Thug..." The steam boiler on the big boat emitted thick black smoke, like the tail of the big boat, gradually drifting away in the breeze.The survey fleet composed of two large boats stopped at the Foshan Economic Development Zone, visited the young veterans who were interns here, and entered the Shunde Waterway after replenishing coal, and entered Jiujiangyong near Xiqiao Mountain from the ship lock of Sangyuanwei Dongwei go south.

Since it was two veterans who were traveling, there were a dozen or so important cadres accompanying them, so in addition to the National Army of the Sword Drawing Squad, the Chief Security Bureau of the Elders was also responsible for security.

Considering that the senate's roots in the countryside are not deep, Zhang Xiao's force on this trip is a bit exaggerated.Originally, Zhang Xiao wanted to borrow two experimental [-] mortars from the Fubo Army to accompany him. This kind of weapon is extremely maneuverable only by manpower in the absence of mules and horses. Most villages in the countryside are thatched The roof, the blue tile roof, the mortar shells have good penetration, and the vertically falling blooming shells have extremely high lethality to the unprotected human body, and can bypass the wall to kill the target inside the bunker.

But Zhu Mingxia didn't agree, because they wouldn't use it even if they lent it to the national army, so they might as well bring two 12-pound mountain howitzers, which are enough for the national army.The biggest threat to going to the countryside is the bandits. The mountain grenade can be shot directly, and it can even be used as a large sprayer. It is no problem to repel the attack of hundreds of bandits with shotgun, which is very suitable.

But when Zhang Xiao explained where he was going, Zhu Mingxia also had a difficult time.The two dragons of Jiujiang are both Zeguo, and there is basically no mobility when the mountain pomegranate goes there.Finally, it was decided to replace the Nanyang-style rifles in the hands of the accompanying knife-drawing team with a batch of Miniguns eliminated by the Fubo Army. The difference between the two rifles is whether they have rifling, but the shooting accuracy is worlds apart.In addition, the special agents of the Veteran Guard General Bureau are equipped with the new 1637-style breech-loading rifles.Zhu Mingxia patted his chest and assured that with this level of firepower, even if there were no cannons, they would not dare to move when they encountered bandits.

The Army, Navy, and Navy sailors have long used Minie rifles for problems such as excessively large calibers affecting ballistic performance, excessively long barrels (the barrel of the prototype Enfield P1853 is 99cm long), inconvenient loading, and paper-wrapped ammunition that is easily affected by moisture. The Hall modified rifle also failed to completely solve the aforementioned defects.With the stable supply of copper material obtained from monopolizing the Japanese copper trade, it is imperative to design a new copper-cased fixed-loading rifle.

In 1635, the two groups of the Ordnance Design Bureau came up with the No. 1 plan (imitated from the valve action of Springfield M1873) and the No. 2 plan (imitated from the Martini-Henry drop action).During the period when the Senate was busy with the Guangdong and Guangxi Raiders, both programs produced different sample guns to adapt to various experimental ammunition.When reviewing the test results, the military believed that the No. 2 plan was superior in terms of rate of fire and reliability, while the Planning Institute liked the No. 1 plan on the grounds that it could be modified with a Minigun.As the war between Guangdong and Guangxi came to an end, the Senate decided to vigorously enrich the National Army and consolidate the new area. The Mini guns eliminated from the regular army were either transformed into Nanyang-style rifles and provided to the National Army Garrison Squadron, or directly delivered to the National Army Mobile Squadron. The No. 1 plan then lost its advantage, and the No. 2 plan was officially finalized as the 1637 type rear-loading rifle.

This gun is equipped with 1637-style 10X61mm R black powder rifle ammunition, with a muzzle velocity of 72m/s fired from a 485cm barrel. The standard warhead is a 338-grain (21.9g) hard lead alloy warhead. distribution accuracy.Because some army officers were too obsessed with hand-to-hand combat, and worried that shortening the barrel would weaken the stabbing ability, this gun was issued with an extended bayonet. However, in most battles, soldiers reported that the new rifle had a faster rate of fire (up to 600 rounds/min, actual combat The rate of fire is about 20 rounds per minute), the firepower is fierce, and the probability of hand-to-hand combat has dropped significantly.

The 1637-style rifle was a well-deserved workhorse rifle in the Southern Expedition, the Northern Expedition, and the Continental Raiders throughout the 1640s.Its wide range of use and long time are unmatched in Australia and Song Dynasty light weapons systems.Even when the local troops of Australia and Song Dynasty have fully switched to semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons with smokeless medicine, the colonial garrison on the other side of the earth is still hand-casting warheads to supply the old and sturdy 1637 rifles in their hands.

Zhang Xiao stood at the bow of the boat, facing the wind, enjoying the joy of being freed from heavy official duties. Xiqiao Mountain was just two kilometers away and could be seen everywhere.In this situation, Zhang Xiao thought of a poem he saw when he was sorting out the materials before. It was written by Zhan Ruoshui when he was giving lectures in Xiqiao Mountain: "The spring moves the Qiaohu Lake, and the water around the Qiaohu Lake is like a city. The old man sits alone Qiao Yunding, 96 peaks Qiyueming."

What Zhan Ruoshui saw during the Jiajing period was very different from what later generations saw. The reason why Zhan called Xiqiao Mountain "surrounded by the sea in all directions" was because the development of the mulberry garden area had not yet deepened at that time, and there were large-scale waters exist.Jiujiang Chung is the main river flowing from north to south in Jiujiang. It was very wide in the Ming Dynasty. According to records, the water width was 28 feet. Due to continuous development in later generations, the river was silted up, and the civil construction increased, so it shrank into a small river.

It's a pity that more than 70 years have passed since Zhan Ruoshui's time, and the land development in Sangyuan has been greatly developed. Zhang Xiao can no longer see the vast waters that Zhan Ruoshui saw.

Along the way, all kinds of civilian boats came and went in the countless forked rivers, and the farmers on the shore were sweating and working hard. The surrounding aborigines heard the unique noise of the big boats, and looked at Zhang Xiao's fleet one after another, as if Pay attention to him.Zhang Xiao couldn't help but waved to them.

"Jiayu, do you know when the mulberry garden was built?" Zhang Xiao asked.

Zhang Jiayu didn't expect that Zhang Xiao would ask him this question. As a Dongguan native, he naturally wouldn't know the history of a dike in Nanhai County, so he replied ashamedly: "Students are ashamed, they really don't know."

"Where's Huang Canyi?" Zhang Xiao turned to Huang Xiyin again.

"Looking back at the Chief, Sangyuan Wai was first built during the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Kingdom of China, and has a history of more than [-] years." As the former county magistrate, Huang Xiyin was responsible for building water conservancy projects. Of course there are.

"Guo Chao?" Zhang Xiao was taken aback, thinking that the information he saw clearly stated that it was the Northern Song Dynasty, how could he create a "Guo Chao" to return Huizong... It took him a few minutes to realize that he dared to love this "Guo Chao" Chao" is the "Great Song Dynasty"!In contrast, he, the elder of the Song Dynasty, is still talking about the "Northern Song Dynasty" and "Southern Song Dynasty"!

This awareness!This level of speech!If he hadn't come with the Senate, if he was really a smart scholar, he would have been sold and returned the money.

"That's right," Zhang Xiao said, "Water conservancy is the foundation of agriculture, and agriculture is the foundation of the country. The mulberry garden is divided into east and west. From Jizan Ranggudun to the end of Longjiang Hepeng Wai, it is more than 1 feet long and covers 1500 hectares of land. When the mulberry garden was first built, it was only made of mud, and the embankment was four or five feet high. Due to the local terrain in the northwest It is high and low in the southeast, and the sangyuan fence was opened in the Song Dynasty. At that time, there was not much siltation on the coastal sandbars in the downstream, and the water was easily drained. The water from the inner and the river flows into the inner from the outside, vents each other, follows the flow of the water, and does not compete with the water for land, this is really the wisdom of the ancestors."
