Chapter 109: When necessary, show off

After Wang Shoulu died, all aspects of Weizhen Fort seemed to be changing. This change was not superficial or material, but was mainly reflected in everyone's mental outlook. It seemed that the dark clouds pressed on everyone's head were swept away by the sudden strong wind, and most of the military households in Weizhen Fort seemed quite excited. Idiots knew that Xu Xingxia was much better than Wang Shoulu when she came to manage Weizhen Fort.

When Wang Shoulu was in charge of Weizhen Fort, he only knew how to constantly ask for and bully other military households. Except for his few relatives, other military households had no profit. The money and food of Weizhen Fort would have been owed longer than in other places. Without Zhang Qiuqing's support, Wang Shoulu would have been killed by the angry military households. Now, he was killed by bandits, which was full of evil and deserved the crime.

As we all know, the other two hundred households in Weizhen Fort are all irresponsible. In other words, the current Weizhen Fort is actually Xu Xingxia's head of the family. Of course, if Zhang Qiuqing comes back, it will be Zhang Qiuqing's head of the family. However, Zhang Qiuqing probably won't come back. As for whether other hundred households will be sent to the company, it is not clear yet. Even if there are really another hundred households coming, the military households are more willing to follow Xu Xingxia.

The military households’ requirements for their superiors are actually very simple, that is, they can seek benefits for them. Specifically, they can protect their safety, get them owed money and food, and take care of them when there is a good thing. Xu Xingxia fully meets this condition. No one is more suitable to be the Weizhenbao family except him.

Weizhenbao, a military household group, applied to the military model of later generations, was almost the same as the force of a battalion. However, because each officer and soldier brought their own families, they seemed so bloated. The relationship between them became so complicated. If all families were temporarily separated, the relationship would be much simpler.

It seemed that everyone felt a certain hope and expectation. They were all hoping that Xu Xingxia could gather them as soon as possible, announce relevant news, and determine the matter as soon as possible. From the morning, the military households habitually gathered at the sanitary yard, waiting for Xu Xingxia to arrive. However, it was a bit strange that they waited for Xu Xingxia to appear. As time went by, more and more military households gathered on the sanitary yard, and almost all of them came.

Although there are many people on the gravel field, at least two hundred people, there is no noisy sound. After all, military households are military households, which are different from ordinary households. Military households are disciplined, and may be relatively casual and lazy in normal times, and do not care much about discipline. However, once a major event occurs, the military discipline must be implemented. Otherwise, once the superior becomes angry, he has to drag one or two out to behead and show his head, and there is no place to seek justice. Therefore, at this moment, everyone has consciously implemented the military discipline.

It was not until noon that Xu Xingxia's figure appeared late. He deliberately came very late. When necessary, he still had to show off his identity. This is the most basic requirement. If he did not show off like this, he could not highlight his identity as a hundred households. Some military households may not respect you enough. Of course, it is unnecessary to show off too much, just show off slightly.

Seeing Xu Xingxia coming, the military households in the sanitary yard hurriedly moved away from the middle. Some military households also placed a square stool in the middle of the sanitary yard. The function of the square stool is not for sitting, but for standing. As long as you stand on the square stool, you can basically see the mountains and look down at each military household from a high place. Wang Shoulu, the past, liked this feeling very much.

Xu Xingxia came to the center of the sanitary yard, waved her hand, and let someone move the square stool away. There was no need for him. He glanced at each military household calmly and said calmly: "Everyone, since Wang Shoulu's family unfortunately died, if there is no accident, I will be responsible for the defense and security of Weizhen Fort in the future. I, Xu Xingxia, have no other skills, and can only try my best to ensure everyone's safety and try my best to get the arrears of money and grain for everyone. Now, I will re-arrange all the affairs of Weizhen Fort."

Xu Xingxia's opening remarks were nothing special. Without any nonsense, she explained her purpose clearly from the point of view. The military households below all listened quietly and didn't say anything. They all knew very well that the key was not what Xu Xingxia said, but what he did. Wang Shoulu was very good at speaking, and the military households believed it, right?

The original structure of Weizhen Fort existed as an affiliate of Pinglu City, and the personnel configuration was basically equivalent to one-third of the entire Qianhu House. There was a deputy Qianhu House, three hundred households, three general flags, several small flags, etc. However, because Weizhen Fort was not safe, many officers stayed in Pinglu City and were unwilling to come to Weizhen Fort. Therefore, the officer system of Weizhen Fort basically does not exist.

In the Ming Dynasty, the military troops carried out three points of military affairs and seven points of military farming ratio. In other words, only 30% of military households needed to be on duty for combat readiness, while the other 70% of military households were mainly farming. Pingluo Institute was slightly special. Because it was located on the front line against the Tatar cavalry, it carried out five points of military farming ratio and five points of military farming ratio.

As time goes by, this ratio has basically been disrupted. It seems that there is no distinction between Weizhen Fort. All military households are military farms. Those who were caught and garrisoned in Niujiaoduan were arrested and strong men, but in fact they have not received any military training. Strictly speaking, they are simply farmers who have picked up weapons and have no combat power. If this were not the case, the Tatar cavalry would not have been in a state of no one.

The reason for all this is largely because Weizhen Fort did not have enough officers. Well, to be precise, there are not enough capable officers. There are still officers who live a life of slumber. Without strong officers, the operation of the garrison will naturally not be smooth and many things cannot be done. Over time, it will become a mess.

When Wang Shoulu was there, he was nepotism. When he needed to do things, he arranged his relatives to come forward. Of course, if there were benefits, he would first think of his relatives. Gradually, a relatively independent small group was formed around him, and outsiders could not join. In general, in the Wang Shoulu era, only a small part of Weizhen Fort operated normally. Most of the other military households were away from this system.

What Xu Xingxia has to do now is to make all the military households in Weizhen Fort operate. Each performs his or her own responsibilities, and each has his or her own purpose. Most of the military households in Weizhen Fort are capable. If they are all operated, everyone can play their role as much as possible, and their creativity is still considerable. To do this, all the corresponding officers must be reappointed.

As for the original officers of Weizhen Fort, Xu Xingxia ignored them. Whether they continued to stay in Weizhen Fort, they were dissatisfied with moving to Pinglu City. In short, as long as they were incapable, they wanted to live a life of slumber and live a mediocre life, they would get out of here. Anyway, Weizhen Fort does not need such a person.

"Now, I will re-appoint six general flags and twelve small flags. Each general flag is responsible for fifty families, and each small flag is responsible for ten families. Today, we will first select the general flag. The selection of the small flags will be carried out next." Xu Xingxia said briefly.

As soon as this was said, the military households below were stunned. Appointing the general flag! Xu Xingxia himself was only a hundred households, and he actually wanted to appoint the general flag. This was completely self-decision. However, no one felt that Xu Xingxia was spending their time. If Xu Xingxia wanted to spend time, he could go to the Tartars, and he didn't need to come to them at all.

Xu Xingxia glanced at each military household and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to do so much? Do you think that those officers who are not even in Weizhen Fort will work for Weizhen Fort sincerely? Since they do not do things, we must choose the people who do things. I can tell you clearly that these selected general flags are all about doing things, not for the benefit of them, and I have no benefits for you."

After a slight pause, Xu Xingxia continued, "If you don't believe me, you can't participate in the selection. However, I must warn you. Even if you don't participate in the selection, you can't make trouble. Otherwise, I will not be polite. Everyone here should remember that we are soldiers and are disciplined. If we violate discipline, the consequences must be military law!"

The military households around them all looked at me, and I looked at you, with a silence on their faces. They felt a strong murderous intent from Xu Xingxia's words. The newly appointed boss of Weizhen Fort is indeed different, and he always needs to engage in military law. In fact, Xu Xingxia's words are basically unnecessary. The people present are his supporters. Who will make trouble? Isn't this feeling that he is impatient in his life?

Chen Denglong stood up and said in a muffled voice: "Master Baihu, don't worry, we are not a good meal. If you come and lead us, we are all very happy!"
