Hundreds of flag troops died in Xiangshan, and nearly 200 flag troops were injured and reduced, so there were not enough military households.

When Chen Mu returned to Xiangshan and came out of the Military Weapon Bureau, the first thing he did was to reorganize the flag army.

The selves were not all rich in children and blessings. In the past, there were fewer flag troops killed in the battle. Now there were more flag troops killed in the battle. They suddenly wanted to continue to hook the army but could not. If it weren't for the complaints of a few hundred households sent to gouding, Chen Mu would not know that there were already seventy or eighty baby soldiers like Wei Balang under his command.

This is probably the dilemma faced by all the guards. The military households are full, but the flag army is not full. They either use children as the main army or can only face the reality that the flag army is insufficient.

"Why don't thousands of households make up a hundred households? I'll take them!"

Wei Balang patted his chest with his hand and looked like an adult. "They can practice, and they can kill people in a year or two!"

"The key to soldiers is not that many. Xiangshan is not short of these soldiers. What are you anxious about?" Chen Mu smiled and said, although Kobayaro is about to grow up, he still has a strong desire to prove himself in his heart. "It is easy for you to take them, and I have this idea too."

Chen Mu wrote at his desk, and Wei Balang stood by his side. Not long after, Chen Mu raised his head and pulled the paper off and stuffed it into Wei Ba's hand. "The little babies will be left to you. Press this, start with reading and literacy and teaching arithmetic. Swordsmanship, gunsmanship, art of riding, cannons, ships, astronomy, geography, military tactics, and supplies. You must teach them what you know. If you don't know, hurry up and teach them what you know."

"The military strategy of Qi Shuai of Ji Town is a copy I copied after the annotation. You can keep it, but don't copy it." Chen Mu said and said to Wei Balang: "The new book is to prevent Japanese pirates, and it is also the experience gained in the fight against Japanese pirates. Our future enemies may not be Japanese pirates. Reading books is the same as listening to people's words. You must see what he didn't say - adapt to the enemy's restrictions."

Adapting to the enemy's conditions is Chen Mu's summary of Qi Jiguang's writing of military tactics during the Japanese turmoil in the south.

In the past military strategy, it was all about adapting to local conditions and what important things needed to be considered when fighting against the enemy in different environments; and for Qi Jiguang, he not only analyzed the environment, but also paid more attention to the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy. It was probably this idea that helped him invent new arms and use new tactics, which even restrained the Japanese pirates.

The same thing is that the wolf pirates are all trying every time, but dealing with infantry covered in armor is just a way to die; the unrivaled tiger squat cannon in the security battle cannon can only turn from far offense to close defense in the conflict in the northern border.

This is a methodology that almost everyone understands in later generations, but it is extremely valuable in this era.

Chen Mu did not intend to let Wei Ba really practice these little babies into murder machines. Even if they were murder machines in the future, Chen Mu did not intend to let them go before they could learn it.

The extermination of Zeng Yiben's fleet is a major event for the entire Fujian and Guangxi, and it is also of great significance to Chen Mu. This means that in the next one or two years, the only pirate force of Lin Feng, a large pirate force, besides the surrendered Lin Daoqian.

The sea surface is relatively calm, and commerce will be more prosperous.

But Chen Mu still couldn't rest, and there were many and chaotic things in front of him.

After this battle, most of the Xiangshan Banner Army survived were elite soldiers, defeating powerful enemies with their own hands, bringing unparalleled morale and courage to the Xiangshan Banner Army. After returning, the training was even more energetic. Five-day three-day training has become a regular rule. Enough food and enough rewards can make their family wealth relatively wealthy.

By declaring discipline, you can put it on the agenda.

It is not the discipline in the past where people cannot escape on the battlefield and those who escaped died; or those who cannot pick up money on the battlefield and those who pick up money died.

Instead, during rest, in practice, and in combat, various rules and disciplines are formulated to achieve the purpose of further increasing cohesion and combat effectiveness.

The warehouse is solid and knows honor and disgrace. The flag army is also supported by Chen Mu, and has made merit on the battlefield, and has paid for free work. Only after meeting the basic survival needs can we strictly enforce discipline, otherwise it will be a empty talk.

When a little profit is stolen on the battlefield, it is richer than his family's property, even if the sword is hanging on his neck, he will still take risks. The law has always been a waste of writing to the real barefoot person.

Only when they no longer have barefoot and their wives and children are well-fed and well-dressed, can they better implement the orders.

In addition to military discipline, there is also civil discipline.

After Xiangshan purchased a loom to imitate the loom last year, it began to weave silk and brocade. Xiangshan's remaining tetrakis can weave a lot of silk, but the channels for purchasing raw silk are very limited, not to mention that it cannot violate the farming work, which sets the upper limit for their satin production.

Even so, the silk stock of pirates from Xiangshan to the time of the pacification of the sea pirates was still 800 pieces.

"The adoptive father, Xiangshan's silk cannot be placed on the market. They have all the skills of hooking flowers and hollowing out the best to Fanyi. The ones weaving in Xiangshan cannot be sold at high prices."

Li Dan took some from Xiangshan. He was still on his own mission to exchange a big black ship for Xiangshan Shipyard. He ran back to the Qianhu Institution of Xiangshan to report the market to Chen Mu, saying: "The best 16 pieces of silk can be sold for nearly a hundred kinds of gold, and the 16 pieces of Xiangshan can only be sold for twenty or thirty gold coins."

Chen Mu frowned slightly. He did not consider the differences in price due to the different quality of silk. In fact, they did not make much profit, and even after deducting costs, the labor remuneration was extremely low.

Probably, the profit has only doubled.

Eight hundred pieces of silk can only sell more than 2,000 taels of silver. According to Chen Mu's expected four points in the military household and three points in the treasury, if he distributes three points in his three points, the military household will only have one tael of silver if he can't get lost.

The part of the thousand-household warehousing is not even enough to get a big black ship.

It’s better than nothing. Perhaps every military household can get two stones of rice because of weaving silk, which is a bit reward.

"What about those assigned by the Governor?"

Speaking of this, Li Dan was happy and said, "The government has naturally transferred many good things. Some can sell hundreds of gold coins. The second most important one is also the price of sixteen and sixty gold coins."

As he said that, Li Dan explained to Chen Mu, "The child has asked specifically, they are different from us. Our silk is also available for ordinary farmers who have land at home. They cannot do it. Those who buy silk are all high-ranking officials and nobles, so this ordinary silk is not easy to sell in their place, so the price is not high."

Li Dan also made a plan to Chen Mu and said, "Enjoyed Father, don't sell the silk woven in Xiangshan next year to Haojing. If you look for merchants in Guangzhou Prefecture, you can buy two of the best silk woven pieces in three pieces, exchange them for food, and then sell the best silk woven into Haojing, which will make you five times more profit!"

The brain can.

If we can find a next company that takes over these silks in the Ming Dynasty and then find a previous company that sells silks, this industry can continue to develop.

"How about one hundred and twenty pieces of silk that can allow Pereira to buy a big black ship from Montaka?"

Chen Mu nodded. This time, Yi Shang came, which would make Xiangshan earn enough money. "I sold it, I sold it. Let him send someone to drive the big ship to Haojing before the winter!"
