Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 89: measure

I have to say that Zhou Shixiang, a soldier of the later generations, is still very humble. He knows his shortcomings. Therefore, in order to successfully bring these tens of thousands of old and weak women and children to Xiangshan and bring them to the special zone of future generations to settle down, Zhou Shixiang put down a battalion of coaches. The humility of Song Xianggong and a small flag learn from Li Zicheng's mobile combat experience of the peasant army.

This Xiaoqi is an old brother from Daqiao Mountain, and has the same name as He Jin, the general who wanted to kill the ten permanent servants in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. At the same time, the two have a common occupation, that is, they are both butchers. Of course, the profession of butcher was a high-level profession in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it could not be done by the tyrannical. But today’s butcher is a cheap profession. Except for the richness, it is generally not regarded by the gentry, and has no social status.

He Jin and Song Xianggong were both from Henan, but one was from Nanyang and the other was from Luoyang. In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, when Duke Xiang of Song joined the army in the name of being a scholar, He Jin had been in the army for more than a year. He was forced to join the army when Li Zicheng led an army to besiege Luoyang in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen. The reason why he said he was forced to join the army is related to his identity as a butcher. After all, as a butcher, no matter how poor his family is, he always has some oil in his stomach. If he can't starve to death, he naturally does not want to follow the "rogue" to kill officials and rebel. However, Li Zicheng's army was pushed to Luoyang Mansion by black pressure, and under the force of the army, he couldn't help but enter the camp.

He Jin did not go to Beijing with Li Zicheng, but went to Huxiang with Bai Wang, a general of the army in the sixteenth year of Chongzhen. After the Qing army entered the customs, Li Zicheng died in Hubei after being defeated in Beijing. Wang was sentenced to be killed by Wang Tizhong. After Bai Wang's death, his Dashun army either surrendered to the Qing with Wang Ti and others, or collapsed and disintegrated on its own, or went west to another branch of the Dashun army, Li Guo.

He Jin did not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, nor did he search for Li Guobu, but changed his name to He De and fled to Fujian. In the second year of Longwu, he was caught by Zheng Zhilong's army in a confused manner, and then he became a prisoner of Li Chengdong's army, and then entered Guangdong. After several turns, the former Dashun Army Post Chief He Butcher became a pirate in Daqiao Mountain, and now he is a small flag officer in Taiping Camp.

In terms of ability, He Jin is not bad; in terms of courage, He Jin will not let anyone. It stands to reason that he has the qualifications of the Dashun Army Post Commander. The official did not, because He Jin was already old.

He Jin, who was born in the 32nd year of Wanli, is 53 years old this year. This age is not old in future generations, but in this era, he is really an old man, ten years older than Song Xianggong. When the general banner officer was elected, it wasn't that no one pushed He Jin, but He Jin himself refused to be the general banner officer. In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether he is an official or not, whether he is a high official or a small official. , the important thing is whether he can still live to burn paper for his parents in his lifetime.

"Brother Zhou, do you think we can save Daming? Can we go back to our hometown in this lifetime?"

He Jin says this every time he sees Zhou Shixiang. Although he is more than two rounds older than Zhou Shixiang, he still calls this young man who looks like his son his brother. Do not change the title of Zhou Brothers.

Song Xianggong also mentioned He Jin to Zhou Shixiang several times. Every time he mentioned He Jin's wish, Song's face would have a touch of sadness, and his eyes were even more lonely. He Jin also wanted to go home.

Who doesn't want to go home?

Zhou Shixiang thought of his home, the empty tomb outside Xinhui City, and he couldn't stop his nose and tears.

After Song Xiang voted to join the army, he has been working as a document in Zhongshu, responsible for the receipt and payment of money and grain and the exchange of official documents. He does not know much about the specific combat process of the army, but He Jin is the sentry chief who directly leads the soldiers at the bottom. There are more than a dozen people, but they know how Chuangjun fought and how he moved in. According to him, the army was usually divided into several battalions when fighting, with the old battalion in the middle and the cavalry guarding the side. Wherever the old camp is located, the old camp is placed first, and then the old camp is expanded by dozens or even hundreds of miles. Once there are police, the cavalry will immediately attack and cover, and the old camp will be moved to a safe place. If there is no war, the soldiers of each battalion can take turns to return to the old camp to live in peace with their wives, children and children for a few days. During the war, even if their wives, children and children are behind them, these men cannot turn back and say a word to them.

Song Xianggong generally talked about the settlement method of the old army camp based on his own memory. They all have a strict organizational system, down to a horse-drawn carriage and an animal being managed by a dedicated person.

However, Song Xianggong and He Jin both said one thing, that is, once the war is unfavorable, the Chuangjun will generally abandon the old camp and only lead the veteran soldiers to break through. This incident reminded Zhou Shixiang of what later generations saw in the history books, that is, after Li Zicheng fled to Shangluo Mountain, the general Liu Zongmin and others would help Li Zicheng to make a comeback even if he killed his wife and son. Combining the two, Zhou Shi felt less guilt and unease than he had confessed to Song Xianggong's decision to give up the rear camp as a last resort.

Combined with the methods of rushing into the army and the organization and management methods of later generations, Zhou Shixiang and Song Xianggong initially formulated the regulations and measures for the transfer of the latter camp, as well as the countermeasures in case of emergencies.

Summer is coming, tens of thousands of people will travel thousands of miles, and sickness is inevitable. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties and strengthen the rescue force of the Taiping Camp, Song Xianggong selected all Luo Ding's officers and transferred them to the nursing department named by Zhou Shixiang. All the veterans in the camps who know doctors are required to be transferred~www.NovelMTL.com~ Even the midwives who only know how to deliver women are also stuffed into the nursing department.

After the establishment of the Nursing Department, Zhou Shixiang personally gave the first batch of fifty students a two-day class. The content of the teaching was not medical skills, but first aid methods, such as cardioresuscitation first aid, how to stop bleeding quickly, etc. In addition, he also focused on teaching hygiene and epidemic prevention. due knowledge.

Song Xianggong didn't know where Zhou Shixiang learned these knowledge. Although it sounds different from the medical skills learned by the current Langzhong, there is a certain truth. For example, the white cloth is boiled in hot water and then dried and wrapped means are very useful.

Zhou Shixiang's own knowledge was limited. After teaching the medical knowledge he had learned in the army to these people, he could only hope that these midwives and midwives, who were not as good as the barefoot doctors of later generations, could experience the essence of these medical skills on their own.

The money and supplies from the public treasury have already been loaded into the trucks. At the same time, the battalion elders were ordered to reveal to the campers that the Qing army was about to attack Luoding. When the campers were panicking, another officer came to comfort them, saying that the Qing army There are a lot of troops and horses that come to attack at one time, but we are not afraid. Lord Qianhu already has a sure-fire way to deal with them, we just need to obey the orders.

At the same time, the training of the new recruits in the former battalion is going on like a fire. The long-distance training of the first five or ten miles has become a twenty-mile or even thirty-mile training. Facing the complaints and complaints of the soldiers, led The team's general flag will always tell them that this is a rapid marching exercise, and to win the battle, the premise is to run faster than the Tartars.

Run fast to win?

This explanation did not make the soldiers understand, but made them more confused. The patient general flag would say a few more words, and the impatient ones waved and danced the whip.
