Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 186
The idea of ​​the equation is, since the clothes, shoes and hats of soldiers can be produced in factories, can other things also be produced in factories?For example, the four copper mines can be processed in this mode.

Li Jing has no different opinions on the proposal of the formula. Originally, he wanted to use these factories as a model. Now that the formula can understand the benefits, it shows that the formula is really careful.

But Li Jing was defeated by the next sentence of the equation: "Marshal, we have no money, you should pay for it."

Li Jing shook his head and said with a smile: "Copper mines are strategic materials and are only used by the army. Such a factory should not be in my personal name. Let me help you build these factories first. As for who owns them?" Let's talk about it later."

Fang Fang nodded, although he didn't understand why Li Jing insisted that his personal things should be separated from Ji Shijun, he thought Li Jing had his own intentions.

And through Li Jing's actions, Fang Fang discovered that although Li Jing did not obey the court's jurisdiction, what he did was really doing things for Ming Dynasty, or more precisely, doing things for this country.

Compared with those important officials in the court, Li Jingyuan is more concerned about the country and the people than them.

……

The clothes of the recruits are finally settled, and Li Jing is also ready to start sending troops.

Li Jing held Yuan Keli's hand in the Yicheng county government office, looked at Yuan Keli's aging face, sighed softly in his heart, and said: "Sir, I will go to war tomorrow, do you have anything else to explain?" ?”

Yuan Keli nodded and said: "Don't be arrogant or impetuous, good! Jimin, you have to remember one thing, our Jishi Army is different from other armies. As the commander, you must not take the lead and charge forward. With you, Jishi Army will not be shaken , even if you lose one or two battles, it’s nothing, but once you have something wrong, then the Ji Shi Army will collapse, and you have to be clear about which is more important.”

"Yes! Sir, I understand." Li Jingjing nodded.

After thinking for a while, Li Jing continued: "Sir, Yicheng County is located at the junction of Pingyang Mansion and Jiangzhou. Once the rogues jump the wall in a hurry, it is impossible to guarantee that they will not come to attack. Mister, why don't you go to Jiang County to live temporarily..."

Yuan Keli waved his hand: "I won't leave. After you leave, the family will be handed over to me. I'm old, and this old life is nothing. Even if I fight this old life, I have to help you keep this piece of foundation."

Li Jing hurriedly said: "Sir, your body is far more important to me than this foundation. If the territory is gone, I can fight back, but if your body..."

Yuan Keli sighed and said: "Jimin, I am satisfied with your filial piety. I am old and can't wait too long. I only hope to see you make achievements in my lifetime. This expedition is of great importance. You can't beat the bandits too hard, you have to let them go according to the route we set out, so Yicheng County will not allow any mistakes. After you leave, I will guard here for you. As long as I don't die, this Yicheng County will not will be lost!"

Seeing Yuan Keli's firm attitude, Li Jing knew that he could not change Yuan Keli's decision.

Looking at Yuan Keli's old face, but with a determined expression, Li Jing took out a seal from his arms and handed it to Yuan Keli, then slowly knelt down in front of Yuan Keli, choked up and said: "Sir! This is a soldier's talisman for dispatching troops , once there is a crisis in Yicheng County, you can always mobilize all the troops of the Jishi Army to keep Yicheng County, but more importantly, you must protect yourself."

Yuan Keli pondered for a while, then gently took the soldier talisman.

There are two ways for the Jishi Army to transfer troops. One is to use official documents. When Li Jing needs to transfer troops, he sends a document to the battalion officer below, and finally stamps Li Jing's transfer seal. For example, Zhang Chu and Liu Er Leng and the two swapped, just use this method.

There is also a soldier talisman, which is used to deal with emergencies.

There are three grades of military talismans, the lowest level is the copper command arrow. This kind of command talisman is written with the number and name of each battalion. It is held by the battalion officers of each battalion, representing the identity of the battalion officers and the control over their subordinates.The second level is silver, which can manage many battalions. It is controlled by generals above the township level, and can transfer battalions. The token in Gao Qi's hand belongs to this level.The highest level is gold, which can mobilize all the main and auxiliary soldiers of the Jishi Army, and Li Jing is in charge of it himself.

Generally speaking, soldier talismans are not used for normal deployment of troops, because there is only one soldier talisman, and it will be troublesome to mobilize more than two troops at the same time.

All the senior officers of the Jishi Army have seen Li Jing's golden soldier talisman. Everyone knows that this soldier talisman represents Li Jing himself.

However, for the time being, the Jishi Army does not have the situation that the general does not know the soldier, and the soldier does not know the general.

Most of the low-level military officers have met Li Jing himself. As for the senior military officers, they were cultivated by Li Jing himself. It is impossible to use order symbols and seals to rebel against Li Jing. It is easier to use Li Jing himself than these two things. many.

In fact, in many cases, it was Li Jing who issued the order first and followed up with the formalities.

Li Jing is going to go out now, and he needs to carry the seal of dispatching troops with him, so he can only give this kind of soldier amulet to Yuan Ke.

Seeing Yuan Keli accepting the military talisman, Li Jing kowtowed and got up and said, "Sir, take care, I'm going now."

Yuan Keli nodded and said, "Jimin, take care too."

Li Jing looked at Yuan Keli silently for a while, nodded solemnly, then turned and left resolutely.

……

In the wilderness outside Yicheng County, hundreds of military tents formed a large camp.

"Commander, all the generals have gathered, we just wait for the command from the commander." Hutou said.

Li Jingjing nodded, patted Hutou's shoulder and said: "Don't you want to fight, I left you a battalion, and I haven't appointed a battalion officer, this time you go out to experience it."

"Thank you dad." Hutou said happily.

"Brat, if I let you be a battalion officer, you can call me Daddy, take it!" Li Jing smiled and took out a copper token from his bosom and threw it to Hutou.

Hutou took the order talisman, turned around and was about to run into the tent, Li Jing shouted: "Where to run, first accompany me to raise the tent!"

"Oh!" Hutou had no choice but to turn around and lead the way obediently.

After entering the commander's tent, Hutou shouted loudly: "The commander-in-chief is here, all the generals pay homage!"

All the generals in the tent hurriedly bowed and shouted in unison: "Greetings, Commander!"

Li Jing went to the middle of the handsome tent, sat down and waved his hands: "Get up!"

"Thank you, Marshal!" All the generals hurriedly stood up with their chests raised.

Li Jingjing nodded and scanned the generals in the tent.

The Jishi Army now has a total of nine and a half battalions in three towns. The first town is led by Li Jing, who has four and a half battalions under him. The fourth battalion is a reserve battalion without battalion officers. Sun Hutou has just been appointed as battalion officer.Plus Chen Dazhuang's artillery battalion (half a battalion) and Chen Erhu's commando.

The second town was commanded by Gao Qi, and had three battalions under it. The first battalion was commanded by Zhang Chu, the second battalion was commanded by Chen Dahu, and the third battalion was rowed over from Sun Meng's official army after the increase in troops. The battalion officer, Deng Xuan, was I came here with Gao Qi and others from the Qianhu Office in Zhengzhou.

The third town was commanded by Sun Meng, with Chen Guozhu (zhuzi) as the battalion officer of the first battalion, Zhou Huhu as the battalion officer of the second battalion, plus three battalions of Sun Meng's official troops (non-official soldiers of the Jishi Army).

Among them, the third town is mainly responsible for defending the old nest of Hongshanling.

In addition, Liu Hong of Qianhu in Weihui Mansion is a non-staff member, and cooperates with Sun Meng to defend the west of Hongshanling.

Since Zhang Chu and Liu Erleng were swapped, and Li Jing had sent him to garrison at the border of Yangcheng, there were only Zhou Daqing, the battalion officer of the second battalion, Wang Ermao, the battalion officer of the third battalion, Chen Dazhuang, the battalion officer of the artillery battalion, Chen Erhu, the captain of the commando team, and the subordinates in the tent. Put the total.

Chen Dazhuang's artillery battalion is configured differently from other troops because of weapons.The team belongs to the lowest configuration of the artillery battalion. A team of ten artillery pieces is equivalent to the post of the infantry battalion. Four teams are one post, and the post is equivalent to the total number of the infantry battalion.

A battalion is equipped with 160 artillery pieces, but Li Jing has only over [-] artillery pieces in total, of which Hongshanling left [-] pieces, Lingchuan left [-] pieces, Li Dingguo took away [-] pieces, and Chen Dazhuang held [-] pieces of artillery pieces. Now there are less than a hundred artillery pieces left.

As for the captain of the commando, Chen Erhu, also enjoys the treatment of a battalion officer. In addition, the commando team is no longer the original ten-member team, but 100 people. Ten teams have been established, and the former members are now the team leaders.

Originally, people below the general manager were not eligible to participate in this kind of high-level meeting, but now Li Jing must ask them to participate.

During this period of time, Li Jing increased his troops on a large scale, and the number of recruits has exceeded ten thousand. After the recruits are trained, they will join the army. At that time, the Jishi Army will inevitably expand. These generals will naturally be promoted to battalion officers. Let them learn when to wait.

Asking Hutou to spread out the map, Li Jing pointed to Huozhou and said, "Now Cao Bianjiao's tribe has arrived in Fenxi and blocked the way for the rogues to flee north. Our task is to drive the rogues out of Huozhou, and then Force them to go south. By chasing the rogues, we took advantage of the situation to occupy the entire southwestern Shanxi region, so we must not disperse the rogues, and beat them painfully, do you understand what I mean?"

"The final general understands!" All the generals said in unison.

Li Jingjing nodded and said: "It's good to understand, now I will assign tasks, Zhou Daqing!"

Hearing that Li Jing was the first to order his own general, Zhou Daqing was overjoyed, and hurriedly responded loudly: "The last general is here!"

Li Jing pointed to the map and said: "You take the troops from the headquarters and add two artillery teams, go north along the road, and lock the west gate of Huozhou. If the bandits escape from the west gate and enter Pu County, I will take you for questioning!"

"Yes! The last general takes orders!" Zhou Daqing said loudly.

Li Jingjing nodded and continued, "Wang Ermao!"

"The end is here!" Wang Ermao said anxiously.

Li Jing drew a route on the map and said, "You lead your troops and two teams of artillery to go north along the road and lock the east gate of Huozhou. Similarly, if the bandits escape from the east gate and enter the mountains, I will also ask you."

"Yes! The last general takes orders!" Wang Ermao said loudly.

"Chen Erhu!" Li Jing continued.

"The last general is here!" Chen Erhu replied.

Li Jing looked at Chen Erhu sternly and said: "Erhu, your assault team will follow Daqing and Ermao in two ways, and after they drive the rogues out of Huozhou, disperse them for me. If you see the rogues rout, shoot them to death." !"
