Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Seeing that Wu Shigong noticed the officer who was training and got Wu Shigong's consent, He Fei called him over.

Just as He Fei was about to introduce him to Wu Shigong, Wu Shigong smiled and said, "I know this official, is Quan Dashan right? Our hero!"

Wu Shigong's words caused another burst of laughter.Seeing that Wu Shigong still recognized him, Quan Dashan suppressed his excitement, and gave a military salute to Wu Shigong: "My lord, it is Quan Dashan."

"Relax!" Wu Shigong told Quan Dashan not to be nervous with a smile, and then asked, "What do you mean by 'attacking to death' when you were training just now?

Unexpectedly, Wu Shigong's question caused Quan Dashan to be stunned.After holding back for a long time, I finally came up with an answer that was not an answer: "Reporting to my lord, 'attacking death' is 'attacking death'!"

Shu Mo at the side reminded Wu Shigong based on his acquaintance with Wu Shigong: "Young master, you said 'attack death' first! It came from Mr. Gang!"

"Huh!?" Wu Shigong didn't expect that this was what he said. He thought about it carefully, and kept thinking about "Gongsi" in his mouth, and suddenly thought of the homonym—the formula.

When Wu Shigong discussed tactics with Gonzalez and the others, when discussing tactical routines, he did unconsciously use the modern language—the formula, and Gonzalez and the others also learned this word.When they dispersed among the various troops as advisors and helped them train, the word spread.

Wu Shigong smiled and shook his head, it looks like a fake copy!However, this out-of-shape copy is harmless, and it is a death attack.This is also the young master who invented a new vocabulary!So Wu Shigong said jokingly: "So that's it. The meaning of attacking death is probably to attack and kill the enemy."

"That's right! My lord! That's how we all explained it!" Quan Dashan's answer caused another burst of laughter.

Wu Shigong's tour this time has both satisfaction and dissatisfaction.What is satisfactory is that the officers of each unit pay close attention to the training of the unit.The dissatisfaction is that the recruits do not have a comprehensive grasp of tactical routines.Even the tactical routines that have been mastered are very rough.

But Wu Shigong knew that there was no rush.It is completely unrealistic to try to distribute two manuals and manuals so that soldiers can follow the prescriptions and get immediate results.It takes time to master the tactical routines.Therefore, Wu Shigong still encourages the officers of each army.

In addition to expanding the army, the main purpose of this reorganization of the Runing Army is to allow the soldiers to master a large number of tactical routines.In future operations, the senior commanders of the Runing Army will only issue orders. As for how to complete the orders, the grassroots commanders of the Runing Army will implement them according to tactical routines.

For example: the regiment commander orders a company to pursue [-] fleeing enemy troops, then which ten-man teams will the company commander send to pursue and which ten-man teams will attack the flanks.Which ten-man teams outflank the enemy's rear, and which ten-man teams guard the prisoners... These will all be directed by the company commander according to the tactical routine.

All of these will be practiced proficiently in the usual training, and there is no need for specific command from the head of the regiment.Of course, there are different routine variants for pursuit in various terrains such as plains, mountains, and cities.Therefore, the amount of training required to fully master these routines and their variants is considerable.

This was also the method adopted due to the unsmooth communication command of the troops at that time, so the requirements for the tactical literacy of grassroots commanders were quite high.After all.The reason why the Runing Army did this.It is to prepare for possible large-scale battles in the future.

After finishing his tour, Wu Shigong returned to Runing at the beginning of August in the sixth year of Chongzhen.If I don't celebrate this Mid-Autumn Festival in my own home, I think all the wives in the inner house will be furious.But even so, Wu Shigong was still a little guilty when he returned home.

So Wu Shigong just arrived at the door of the house, when he met Chang Meng who greeted him, he asked in a low voice: "Is everything all right at home?"

"Madam and young masters and ladies are all very well!" Chang Meng replied with a sad face. "Is it alright? Mother Qiu is watching!"

Hearing Chang Meng's sour words, Wu Shigong was amused: "Don't be confused. Then Mother Qiu came here with the Shangfang sword of her father-in-law and mother-in-law. I don't even dare to mess with the master. Why? She taught you a lesson. La?"

Chang Meng immediately replied: "That's not true. The little girl has been keeping her own law and order on weekdays, and she still can't catch it. But the other servants in the house have been tossed miserably."

"Okay!" Wu Shigong comforted. "Anyway, Mother Qiu is also a woman, and it is impossible to show her face in public. Why don't you run errands for things outside the house? If you are really unhappy with what you do, master, I will tell Mr. Let you go out and be a petty official."

"Master, don't drive this little one out!" Chang Meng said anxiously, "Young one can bear it. I still want to serve my master for the rest of my life."

Chang Meng leaned on Wu Shigong's sign outside, and was called "Master Chang" by outsiders all the time.The fox has done a lot of things to pretend to be the tiger, and he has collected a lot of small money, so he didn't take those small official positions seriously.

Wu Shigong also understands this, but Wu Shigong also understands that Chang Meng does not overdo things, and the things in the house are arranged in an orderly manner on weekdays, so some small things are opened and closed.

"Okay!" Wu Shigong stopped teasing Chang Meng, "I'll tell you one more thing."

"Sir, tell me!"

Wu Shigong pouted at Han Shi who was chasing people crazy, and said, "Tell Han Shi about a wife. You have to be honest and do your duty."

After Han Shi heard it from the side, he immediately said to Wu Shigong: "My lord, the little family has just passed away and is still in the filial piety. The little one, the little one..."

Wu Shigong interrupted Han Shi's words: "Don't talk too much. I'll make the decision on this matter. If you pass on the family earlier, your parents will be happy in the underground."

Han Shi no longer refused.He knelt down on the ground and solemnly kowtowed several times to Wu Shigong.

After returning to the inner house, except for the wives who expressed their distress for Wu Shigong's tanned black charcoal, other things were normal.There is no need to elaborate on the matter of husband and wife.

However, after Madam Qiu sorted it out drastically, the rules in the inner house became orderly.But no matter what, Wu Shigong always felt that some family warmth was missing.Looking at the appearance of the inner house, Wu Shigong could only sigh: "This is really as deep as the sea once you enter the Hou's gate!"

During this tour, Wu Shigong was most impressed by the fact that the social conflicts in various places have reached the point of burning like a powder keg.

Whether it is Guide Mansion, Runing Mansion, or Nanyang Mansion, except for the fields near the river, a large number of fields have been abandoned, even the fields of those big landlords such as officials and gentry.Few organized drought relief.

The dead and fleeing refugees can be seen everywhere.Even those refugees have reached the point of hordes.There is really a feeling that as long as someone climbs up and shouts, Wanmin will rise up!

Deng Qifan also reported to Wu Shigong: Now the difference between the area controlled by the Runing Army and the outside world is like heaven and hell.A large number of refugees gathered around the area controlled by the Runing Army, crying and wanting to be Wu Shigong's domestic slaves.

In this short period of time, the Runing Army gained more than 3 mu of land and nearly [-] refugees.It's not that I don't want to recruit anymore, but that the Runing Army can't take it anymore.

And the work of attracting investment for the Runing Army was not going smoothly, to be precise, it was a big zero.Except for some local gentry who have good relations with the Runing Army and are familiar with the strength of the Runing Army, and the officials of the Runing Army bought some workshop stocks thrown out by the Runing Army, no businessmen opened new workshops and firm.

On the contrary, the personnel within the Runing Army are very active, and many people with special skills have borrowed a sum of money from the Four Seas Bank to open many personal workshops.However, the current scale of these handicraft workshops is too small to contribute much tax revenue to the Runing Army.

However, because the Runing Army is relatively wealthy here, restaurants, teahouses, and brothels, where the Runing Army imposes heavy taxes, have opened up a lot.Among them, Mama Li's brothel chain is the most famous.

Fortunately, because the sale of shares also brought a lot of funds to the Runing Army, so in a short period of time, the Runing Army will not worry about the shortage of funds.

In this regard, Wu Shigong was also very helpless.This kind of policy that takes a long time to see the effect can't be rushed at all, it can only be done slowly.

But this time Wu Shigong did not accept the cadre shares offered by Bian Chengwang in order to express his determination that the Runing Army would not embezzle the property of wealthy businessmen.However, in order to appease Bian Chengwang's heart, Wu Shigong agreed that Bian Chengwang should be named "Wu Mansion" in front of Bian's iron workshop jointly opened by himself and the Runing Army.Therefore, the full name becomes - Wufu Bian's Ironware Workshop.

Of course, Bian Chengwang will also pay an annual naming fee to Wu Fu.Although the naming fee this time is very small, it is only symbolic.But this opened Wu Shigong's mind. He will auction off the naming rights of "Wu Mansion" to various industries in the future, which can actually bring a lot of income to Wu Mansion every year.For this, the resentment in the inner house against Wu Shigong for dissipating his family property was also much less.

In addition, because of the inconvenience of carrying and decocting herbal medicines, Zhizhi obtained patents for several pills invented, and jointly opened a pharmacy with Runing Army based on the patents.With the large purchases of the Runing army and civilians in the future, huge wealth was obtained.

You should know that in the territory controlled by the Runing Army in the future, although the permitted limited religious freedom policy is implemented, it also stipulates that any religious place shall not purchase land and real estate other than temples.In this way, the small temple that Zhizhi built in Runing eventually turned into the richest temple in the country.
