Go back to the Ming Dynasty to be a thousand households

Chapter 80 Military Song ([-])

Among the three people who could read, one was He Ruzhen, the deputy of Qianhushe. His father, He Chaoxun, was usually in charge of farming and camping in Qianhusuo.Handed down from family for decades, He Ruzhen can more or less understand some of the most basic characters and write some.

He Ruzhen is 20 years old this year. He looks like his father, with big hands and feet and thick black appearance. He is no different from the rural children in Minbao outside. The biggest feature is that he is honest, hardworking and hardworking.Although his work ability is not very good, he is conscientious and responsible in doing things. He always tries his best to complete the tasks assigned by Huang Laifu.

Regarding He Ruzhen, Huang Laifu is still very at ease. Anyway, he doesn't need He Ruzhen's outstanding ability, he only needs him to strictly follow the training manual he compiled and help him train step by step.

The other two literate people, one is Yang Xiaolu, he is clever, usually he can read some characters, but his knowledge is limited, he can understand some books, but he can't teach others.

The other is a literacy officer named Su Xutang, a literacy official from the Qianhu Institute. He is 30 years old this year and has a somewhat refined appearance, which is rare among a group of soldiers.His usual work in the Qianhu Office was to teach the soldiers how to read and help them write some letters.

There are not many educated people among the sergeants. Huang Laifu wanted to recruit some literate men in Wuzhai Fort. Unfortunately, there were not many literate people in Wuzhai Fort. Although some refugees often fled to Wuzhai Fort, but Basically, most of them are illiterate, and there are no educated people.

After much deliberation, Huang Laifu decided to ask Wang Qinian and Zhou Wendong to come over and ask them to teach the sergeants in the teaching center how to read in the afternoon or evening when they are free.

After receiving Huang Laifu's request, the two were very happy and obeyed happily.In any case, both of them are scholars, but they usually work as veterinarians or accountants in Wuzhaibao.The two of them usually don't talk, but they still feel a little embarrassed in their hearts. Now that they have time to come here to teach the sergeants how to read, they feel a little bit like being a gentleman.

Wang Qinian's current job in Wuzhai Fort is not only a full-time veterinarian, but also responsible for the breeding of Wuzhai Fort. If there is anything about breeding in Wuzhai Fort, Huang Laifu will listen to his advice, after all, he is a professional.

As for Zhou Wendong, during these times, Huang Laifu asked him to cooperate with Butler Yang to do some accounting work.Huang Laifu found that his work was still very effective, and Yang Steward would often praise him.

In view of the vigorous development of Wuzhai Fort's business, Huang Laifu has already made preparations to divide Wuzhai Fort's bookkeeping work into two aspects: finance and accounting.

Huang Laifu, the treasurer, belongs to Zhou Wendong, and the accountant is temporarily held by Yang Butler, who also keeps the money and silver in the thousand households.But Butler Yang is getting old, Huang Laifu thinks that he should find an accountant specially, let Butler Yang separate from his background, and specialize in managing the affairs of the thousand-household house, and just concentrate on being a housekeeper.

And now Huang Laifu can be regarded as a big family and a big business, and there are many things in Wuzhaibao.In Wuzhaibao now, the fact is that the military and the government are integrated. In addition to managing the military, Huang Laifu also has to manage the government and money. It feels a bit incompetent.Huang Laifu is already thinking that some relevant civil management departments in Wuzhaibao should be established.

But right now I am busy with military training, these things, after entering September, let's adjust slowly.At that time, I still have a five-year development plan for Wuzhaibao to implement.

Thanks to the presence of Wang Qinian and Zhou Wendong, plus the literacy officer Su Xutang, there are literacy teachers in the Wuzhaibao Banner Army.Huang Laifu can let them teach the soldiers to read every day.Huang Laifu's plan is to let three people give some hundreds of households first, and the general banners will have a class first, let them read the regulations to the officers, and then ask these officers to read the regulations to the sergeants after they go back, let them remember, and we will meet again later. write down.

But there is another problem here. It is really difficult for these sergeants who have never read a book to read. It often takes several days for them to recognize a word.Finally, Huang Laifu thought of a method for later generations, which is to stick a piece of paper behind each sergeant with a word written on it, so that no matter where the sergeants go, they can recite it when they are free, and strive to understand each other every day. one word.

In addition to the education problem of the Wuzhai Fort Banner Army, Huang Laifu also thought of another problem in Wuzhai Fort.Those children from military households usually have nothing to do all day long, so they should be taught to read and write. Education is the foundation of a century-old plan.

In the future, the development of Wuzhaibao will require a lot of talents. In the future, there should be many factories in Wuzhaibao. In the future, talents in technology, management, accounting, etc. will be indispensable.If the college can't be run by itself, then I will set up a school, a technical school, to train all kinds of talents I will need in the future, such as technicians, craftsmen, stewards, clerical staff, logistics staff, etc.

But these things have to be done slowly in the future, and Huang Laifu can't get away from it all at once.

The current Wuzhaibao sergeants, in addition to literacy, are usually trained in line up, banners, and golden drum orders.

According to Qi Jiguang's military training method, the generals are required not only to have the literary and military strategy to lead troops to defeat the enemy, but also to be proficient in various skills and set an example for the soldiers; .

Huang Laifu naturally followed suit. From the first day of training, Huang Laifu personally trained with the sergeants every day, with very strict requirements.

Every day, in the competition field, everyone should dress neatly and start practicing seriously.If any of his subordinates acted incorrectly and violated military discipline and regulations, Huang Laifu would be merciless and severely punished.

This kind of strict norms and high-intensity training every day made the original He Chaoxun, He Fuqianhu, Jiang Baihu, Yang Baihu and others feel terrified when they saw it.Everyone secretly rejoiced, luckily I quit early, otherwise, who would have endured this kind of drill by Lord Qianhu?
According to the current Daming Guard Army, there are two or three drills in a year, which is considered pretty good.Even the battalions of the main battles in the towns practiced a few times in a month, which was regarded as hard work. How could there be anyone like Huang Laifu who practiced hard every day?
In fact, according to the current situation of the Wuzhaibao Banner Army, it is considered pretty good to be placed in various guards.Banner soldiers are all physically strong, not old and weak, sufficient monthly food, and equipped with weapons for each person. In the eyes of other guards, they are already considered elite soldiers.But for Huang Laifu, it was far from enough.

July 1590, 8, morning.

Yesterday, the Wuzhai Fort competition field just finished the harvest celebration banquet.Except for some bannermen guarding the fort, everyone had a day off.But starting today, intense training has resumed.

At this time, the arena is in full swing, flags are flying, and golden drums are sounding.

From the beginning of the formal training on the 22nd, Wuzhai Fort will strictly follow the training regulations on the field.

Every day, all sergeants must enter the teaching ground on time to check their guns. If they do not arrive after the static gun is fired, they must be strictly investigated.After letting go of the static guns, the doors of the teaching grounds are closed, and idlers and sergeants are not allowed to wander in the teaching grounds, otherwise they will be regarded as the crime of inspecting the flag.

During the drill, if the equipment of each sergeant is not clear, the general flag will be blamed.If any idler pretends to be a Wuzhaibao sergeant to replace the trainer, the substitute will be handed over to the military law.In case of escape, the main banner immediately reports to the small banner, the small banner reports to the general banner, the general banner reports to a hundred households, and a hundred households reports to a thousand households, and the handbook is submitted today.
During the training, down to the small army, up to the general banner, and hundreds of households, they all trained in strict accordance with the military training regulations.Even Lord Qianhu set an example and strictly obeyed, who would dare not be serious and consider himself older than Lord Qianhu?

The training started on the 22nd. After standing in line for the past few days, the flag troops barely looked orderly, but as soon as the flag was raised on the stage, everyone would show their original shape.

I saw a white flag was raised on the stage at this time. According to the flag, everyone should turn right at this time.

But watching off the field, among all the people, some turned left, some turned right, and even more exaggeratedly turned backward.Whenever at this time, Zhenfu Sun Xiaobao rushed over with several military prisons, and beat the wrong-turned flag army with a military stick, making them cry and cry, that is, the hundred households standing in front, Officers such as the general flag and small flag, if they make a wrong turn, they will also fight.

This is what Huang Laifu told him. During the training, the sergeants and officers are treated equally, and there is no preferential treatment.Sun Xiaobao was in charge of military discipline in the two governors, and the other governor, Han Hu, was in charge of military law.Sun Xiaobao and Han Hu are the same age this year, both 20 years old, but Han Hu is calmer, while Sun Xiaobao is youthful and energetic, and has a bit of a second-hand taste.

Sun Xiaobao usually admired Huang Laifu, and always wanted to do something to attract Huang Laifu's attention. Now that he got the Shangfang sword from Huang Laifu, he had a great time doing it. In other words, let the flag army, even some officers, hate him in private.
