Chapter 186 Words
After spending this particularly long sleepless night, it is said that several rebels scrambled into the city to find opportunities to cause trouble, but most of them were taken first and they were shocked to be captured and killed by the government army. Only the noise and noise that ran all night and a few fires that were gradually extinguished were left.
Anyway, I have already obtained the job, so I will pack up and set off and go back immediately. I won’t stay here for too long. The voice of most of my subordinates is that sometimes the plan cannot keep up with the changes.
"What, I can't leave..."
After dawn, I bid farewell to Gao Chong, who had already obtained the temporary supreme command of the city's official army, but received this bad news.
"Now, the whole city is in great pursuit, and those things have happened at the banquet. Every part of the manpower is important."
After being busy all night, he said to me patiently with some fatigue
"It's impossible to let you keep a single period of more games,"
"More and quiet, you are now a topic in the military."
His expression became a bit fun
"You lured the main force of the rebels as soon as you came,"
"How could you happen to me? I'm aware of the poisonous conspiracy at the celebration banquet for the rebel spies... I saved some of them back."
"So far now, everyone in the army is talking about your unspeakable fortune."
"Whether it is public or private, you must borrow your department's fortune and reputation... and calm down your heart and talk about it."
"What"
I was speechless, this is OK, is it the best portrayal of shooting myself in the foot?
"The system has been through a long history, and I will definitely not believe in these illusory things..."
"Creditable or not..."
He laughed, showing a kind attitude
"Although the experience of this night is really hard, I am still very grateful for your ability and the opportunities you brought to me..."
I suddenly realized that because the transformation of Anyuan Prefecture hastily, there was no unified and clear command system like the Tiannan Anti-Rebel Army, but instead the highest position in the battlefield is the general coordination and command.
After yesterday's incident, the Shangguans with the highest ranks on the spot were all unable to observe the matter in a short time because they had too much alcohol and had various complications. Therefore, the temporary expedient command power was transferred to Gao Chong, the highest-level guest army.
I believe that with his skills and scheming, he will not fail to make good use of this opportunity to gain substantial benefits and benefits. For example, he will make the title of "opportunity and right" more worthy.
"What can we do..."
I can't pretend to be stupid or be indifferent because the other party is so heart-warming.
"Our department has no name and no distinction, and its ability is limited. I really can't bear any heavy responsibility... I can only do my best..."
"Everything is easy to say, these are not problems..."
He seemed to be waiting for my words,
"Actually, I plan to appoint your department to monitor the grain station or one of the important places in the arsenal..."
"After all, your troops were sent directly from Tiannan, and had no connection with the local area. They were less disturbed and trained in the army, so they were more reliable."
He changed his subject and became serious.
"Of course, it would be even better if I could secretly pay attention to some suspicious signs for me..."
"I have always suspected that someone in the army secretly communicated with the rebel party... It's time to repeatedly fail to lose the finale, and it's not effective.
"After this last night, I can become more certain, and there are many,"
"But unexpectedly, even the only one who supports the official army, the Lord, will not be spared."
"However, I am just the first to take full control. There are still people in the army who are dissatisfied...there are several forces that can be dispatched in my hands, and they are all involved."
"Understood"
Having said this, I can no longer refuse.
"Do your best..."
So after I came out, I had a new title of "I know the firearms, the Later Army Grain Academy and the Arsenal Supervisor" and the corresponding new brand seal. This is the sixth temporary title I also received.
So in a mixed mood, we began to change the garrisons of big and small cars, and moved directly from the temporary barracks on the outskirts of the city to the front military war hall in the inner city. The location of the battlefield arsenal that is currently used. To a certain extent, I am really destined to be with the logistics warehouse.
This is a building complex with a wide area and capacity. We, including the husband, servants, auxiliary personnel, chariots, horses and animals, stationed in two or three thousand people, without any crowding.
Moreover, in order to facilitate management and supervision, the Hardware Bureau and the APP Department are next to it. Although the craftsmen and laborers belonging to them are either fled or conscripted by the army, the various tools, equipment and places left behind are still in a mess, and are still basically intact.
In the past, the rebellious vassals led by the Hou Fan and Ma family in Anyuan Prefecture, when they abandoned the city with a large population, they set fire to burn the money and material warehouses that could not be taken away. This is because it is relatively less important, it was preserved.
This layout and setting is mainly due to some local historical origin. Tanjung Continent has been known for its rich minerals since ancient times. Its history can be traced back to the reign of Funan Kingdom. The daily major tributes paid to the Nanhai Governor's Office include large quantities of refined minerals.
Among them, the most famous are tin sand and red copper ingots. Therefore, the southern part of Tanjung Continent and Johor on the other side of the Taiwan Continent is also the most widely circulated small green coins and the main source of casting materials required by the National Dynasty. Therefore, the National Dynasty set up several cash surveillances and corresponding casting branches in Anyuan Prefecture.
The second is iron. There are many shallow iron ore mined in the local area, including Hematite and Lionite Mountain with different content and composition, and even the production of companion magnets. In addition, high-quality coal is also produced at the southern end of the peninsula and the east of Tiannan.
Some of these origins are located in Anyuan Prefecture.
Therefore, the local iron mountain mining and smelting were quite developed, and branches were also established to allocate and supply the needs of various wars in Xikaido. The first route came to arm the army to capture Ma Kuo's official troops. After the siege was besieged and destroyed, there were at least tens of thousands of weapons of various colors, including the reserves established by the state, so they lost control and flowed into the local area, arming the rebel vassals.
Then the upstream of the local river also produces sand and mineral gold, as well as some accompanying minerals such as lead, zinc, borax, mica. In addition to the main official mining and smelting, there are also many local vassal leaders, big and small, and many people have wealth and reserves, so they have a private armed force familiar with the mountains and forests.
In addition, they now have channels to bring their own weapons or import weapons, so once the rebellion begins, it will become a long-term tug-of-war situation that is entangled with the government forces.
But no matter what, this environment and conditions, for me, have a habit of handcrafting and R&D, is a ready-made test site and large workshop, and the equipment and raw materials are ready-made.
As the aftermath and follow-up caused by the poisoning incident at the celebration banquet, the aftermath and subsequent incidents are still shaking. In addition to the person who is the most direct person in charge of poisoning at the banquet, Nuo Fan was imprisoned and was sentenced to death, and everyone around him was taken down to question and dig deep into the inside story.
The investigation in the army is still continuing, involving at least three troops, six or seven subordinate agencies, dozens of responsible persons, etc., and are involved. The problems within the official army seem to be more serious than expected. Various gaps and ill-conducts accumulated in the early stage have also been discovered, so Gao Gao’s absence from the army of a large number of generals and officers is filled with a smell of panic.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the enterprising high-level system took advantage of the situation to eliminate dissidents and arbitrary means and planning. Because of the uneasiness and anxiety that have fermented out in private, there are even officers and soldiers who have been in charge of the fire, suddenly left the head and fled collectively while on duty.
Then, before going far away, he was arrested by the law-enforced Yu Houdu and Xian army. The leader was beheaded and displayed in public, and the rest were all assigned to hard labor to serve their sentences. Then the relevant responsible persons, including the team leader, regiment officer, camp head, other generals and commanders of the army, as well as corresponding officials and military officials, more than a dozen people were demoted and removed from office and other positions.
His drastic methods were fierce, but they were a little beyond my expectations.
If the rebels attacked in large numbers at this time, they might find that what they had to face was the floating fighting power of the people, and the weak official army, but unfortunately, those rebels seemed to have suffered too much in the previous battle.
Therefore, except for the remote mountain villages and villages in some states, there are traces and rumors of small groups of people appearing in the mountains, there are no decent actions.
But no matter this, the newly promoted economics master gave me the conditions and promises that I made were very crisp without discount.
As sincerity and conditions, almost the second day after entering, more than a thousand gunmen who gathered from various departments of the government army were some veterans with several years of experience in the army. With a little training and adjustment, they could almost come in handy.
In addition, there are cheap warrants. Theoretically, the military preparation and storage calendar, and all the materials involved in firearms can be taken and used by myself. Just leave a detailed entry and exit record. If you need to assign a call to the military craftsman, you will also have corresponding priority.
Then the first thing I had to do was to transform the more than 2,000 firearms of various types that I collected one after another. The main key part of the transformation was firing devices to improve applicability and design efficiency. We are already familiar with this. Flint and reeds are brought directly from Canton.
Then there is the adjustment of pipe diameter and guardrail. Although these military products have different styles and are different from the old, the advantage lies in the relatively unified pipe diameter. As long as the hardware and carpenters in the army are slightly renovated and adjusted, they can continue to be used.
This also makes it easier and easier to match ammunition in advance. As long as you add a lot of simple work according to a specific mold, even untrained auxiliary personnel can complete it.
As for those hundreds of guns that were eliminated with caliber disagreement, I did not waste them, and kept them for training for recruits. Some of them were rusted and damaged and unavailable, so they were sawed and cut off, leaving a relatively intact part, and transformed into short firearms such as hand guns.
Next was the confrontation experiment of bayonet tactics, which mainly explored simple and practical bayonet fighting skills through group battles. However, Yang Zaixing's group of former Yishen gave me a small surprise. Several of them were from Jingzhou and had once been under the disciple of the famous local martial artist Zhou Song.
Zhou Song, known as the iron-armed magic spear, has a good reputation among the local army. The main reason why he opened a museum to accept disciples was the spear fighting techniques and techniques in infantry battles, including spears and stairs, which were quite different and unpleasant than the long guns with bayonets.
However, the simple principle of poking and blocking is common. My requirements are not high, and there is no need for too many tricks and skills. As long as it is simple and clear, a few to a dozen or so fights that can be used to learn can form a coherent spear combination to achieve the effect of meeting several times and dividing life and death.
