Chapter 367 Time, time
Seeing that Wu Shigong noticed the officer who was training, and after getting Wu Shigong's consent, He Fei called him over.
Just as He Fei was about to introduce him to Wu Shigong, Wu Shigong said with a smile: "I know this officer, Quan Dashan, right? Our hero!"
Wu Shigong's words caused another burst of laughter. Seeing that Wu Shigong still recognized him, Quan Dashan suppressed his excitement and gave Wu Shigong a military salute: "Your Majesty, it is Quan Dashan."
"Take a break!" Wu Shigong smiled and asked Quan Dashan not to be nervous, and then asked: "What did you mean by 'attack to death' when you were training just now?
Unexpectedly, Wu Shigong's question caused a burst of astonishment in the whole mountain. It took him a long time to hold back an answer that was not an answer: "Return to my lord, 'attack to death' means 'attack to death'!"
Shu Mo on the side reminded Wu Shigong by virtue of his familiarity with him: "Young Master, you were the first to say 'attack to death'! It came from Mr. Oka!"
"Huh!?" Wu Shigong didn't expect that these were his own words. He thought about it carefully, thinking about "attack to death", and suddenly thought of the homophonic formula - formula.
When Wu Shigong was discussing tactics with Gonzalez and others, he did unconsciously use modern language - formula when discussing tactical routines, and Gonzalez and others also learned this word.
When they were dispersed to various armies to serve as consultants and help each arm with training, the word spread.
Wu Shigong smiled and shook his head. It looked like an aliased copy! But this aliased copy is harmless. Just attack to death. This is why I invented a new vocabulary! So Wu Shigong joked: "I see, that's it.
The meaning of "attack to death" probably means to attack and kill the enemy."
"Yes! Sir! This is how we explain it!" Quan Dashan's answer caused another burst of laughter.
Wu Shigong's tour was both satisfactory and dissatisfied. The satisfactory part was that the officers of each unit paid close attention to the training of the troops. The dissatisfied part was that the recruits did not yet master the tactical routines.
Comprehensive. Even the tactical routines I have mastered are very rough.
But Wu Shigong knew that there was no need to rush. It was completely unrealistic to think of issuing two drills and manuals so that the soldiers could take the medicine and see immediate results. Mastering the tactical routines proficiently takes time. Therefore, Wu Shigong’s attitude towards each unit
The officers still focus on encouragement.
In addition to expanding the army, the main purpose of this reorganization of the Runing Army is to enable the soldiers to master a large number of tactical routines. In future operations, the senior commanders of the Runing Army will only issue orders. As for how to do it specifically
Completion of the order will be carried out by the grassroots commanders of the Runing Army in accordance with tactical routines.
For example, if the regiment commander orders a company to pursue fifty fleeing enemy troops, then the company commander will send which ten-man teams to pursue, which ten-man teams to attack the flanks, and which ten-man teams to outflank the enemy.
On the rear route, which ten-man teams will guard the prisoners... these will all be specifically directed by the company commander according to tactical routines.
All of this will be practiced skillfully in daily training, and there is no need for specific command from the regiment leader. Of course, there are different routines and variants for pursuit in various terrains such as plains, mountains, cities, etc. So you must fully master these routines and their variants.
The amount of training is quite large.
This was also a method adopted due to the poor communication and command of the army at that time. Therefore, the requirements for the tactical literacy of grassroots commanders were quite high. In the final analysis, the reason why the Runing Army did this was to prepare for possible large-scale corps in the future.
Combat.
After the tour, Wu Shigong returned to Runing in early August of the sixth year of Chongzhen. If he didn't celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival at his own home, all the ladies in the inner house would probably be furious. But even so, Wu Shigong was still a little confused when he returned home.
Guilty.
So when Wu Shigong arrived at the door of his house and met Chang Meng who greeted him, he asked in a low voice: "Is everything okay at home?"
"Madam, young master and ladies are all doing well!" Chang Meng replied with a sad face. "Is it okay? Aunt Qiu is watching over me!"
Hearing Chang Meng's sour words, Wu Shigong was happy: "Don't be confused. That Aunt Qiu came here with the Shangfang Sword of my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Even I don't dare to offend you. What? She taught you a lesson.
La?"
Chang Meng immediately replied: "That's not the case. The little one has always been on her own, so she can't find anything to do with it. But the other servants in the house have been tortured miserably."
"Okay!" Wu Shigong comforted. "After all, Aunt Qiu is a woman, and she can't be exposed to the public. Don't you have to run errands for things outside the house? If you are really unhappy, Master
I will tell Mr. Deng and let you out as a minor official."
"Master, please don't drive me out!" Chang Meng said urgently, "I can bear it. I still want to serve you for the rest of my life."
Chang Meng relies on Wu Shigong's brand outside, and has always been called "Mr. Chang" by outsiders in a majestic manner. He has done a lot of fake things and collected a lot of small money, so he doesn't pay attention to those small official positions at all.
.
Wu Shigong also understood this, but Wu Shigong also understood that Chang Meng did not do things too much, and the things in the house were arranged in an orderly manner on weekdays, so some small things were ignored.
"Okay!" Wu Shigong stopped teasing Chang Meng, "I'll tell you one more thing."
"Sir, tell me!"
Wu Shigong pouted at Han Shi, who was trying to deal with the madness, and said: "Give Han Shi a wife. People should be honest and responsible."
After Han Shi heard this from the sidelines, he immediately said to Wu Shigong: "Sir, my family has just passed away and I am still in the period of filial piety. I, I..."
Wu Shigong interrupted Han Shi: "Don't say any more. I will make the decision on this matter. If you carry on the family line earlier, your parents will be happy underground."
Han Shi no longer refused. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times to Wu Shigong solemnly.
After returning to the inner house, except for the fact that the ladies expressed their distress at Wu Shigong's sunburned appearance, everything else was normal. There was no need to go into detail about the couple's affairs.
After Grandma Qiu sorted it out, the rules of the inner house were in order. But no matter what, Wu Shigong always felt that there was a lack of family warmth. Looking at the appearance of the inner house, Wu Shigong
I can only sigh: "It's really as deep as the sea once you enter the Hou family!"
What impressed Wu Shigong most during this tour was that social conflicts in various places had reached the point where they were like a powder keg, igniting at a moment's notice.
Regardless of whether it is Guide Prefecture, Runing Prefecture, or Nanyang Prefecture, except for the fields near the river, a large number of fields have been abandoned, even those owned by officials, gentry and other big landowners. Very few people have organized drought relief.
The dead and fleeing refugees can be seen everywhere. Even those refugees have arrived in groups. It really feels like as long as someone rises up and shouts, all the people will rise up!
Deng Qifan also reported to Wu Shigong: The difference between the Runing Army-controlled area and the outside world is now like heaven and hell. A large number of refugees gathered around the Runing Army-controlled area, crying and wanting to be Wu Shigong's domestic slaves.
In this short period of time, the Runing Army obtained more than 30,000 acres of land and nearly 30,000 refugees took refuge. It was not that they did not want to recruit more, but that the Runing Army could no longer bear it.
The work of attracting investment for the Runing Army was also not going smoothly. To be precise, it was a big zero. Except for some local gentry who had good relations with the Runing Army and were familiar with the strength of the Runing Army and the officials of the Runing Army.
Except for some workshop stocks sold by Runing Army, no merchants have opened new workshops or firms here.
On the contrary, the personnel within the Runing Army are quite active. Many people with special skills borrowed a sum of money from Sihai Bank and opened many personal handicraft workshops. However, the scale of these handicraft workshops is now too small and they cannot contribute to the Runing Army.
Not much tax.
However, because Runingjun is relatively wealthy here, many restaurants, teahouses and brothels, which were heavily taxed by Runingjun, have closed down. Among them, Mama Li's brothel chain store is the most famous.
Fortunately, the sale of shares also brought a large amount of funds to Runing Army, so in a short period of time, Runing Army will not worry about the shortage of funds.
In this regard, Wu Shigong was also helpless. This kind of policy, which takes a long time to be effective, cannot be rushed at all. We can only do it slowly.
This time, in order to express the determination of Runing Army not to embezzle the property of wealthy businessmen, Wu Shigong ultimately did not accept the shares offered by Bian Chengwang. However, in order to appease Bian Chengwang, Wu Shigong agreed to Bian Chengwang's private investment in Bian's joint venture with Runing Army.
In front of the iron workshop, it was named "Wu Mansion". Therefore, the full name became - Wu Mansion and Bian's Iron Workshop.
Of course, Bian Chengwang also paid a naming fee to the Wu Mansion every year. Although the amount of the naming fee this time was very small, it was only symbolic. But this opened up Wu Shigong's thinking. In the future, he would refer to the "Wu Mansion"
"This naming right is publicly auctioned to various industries, and it can actually bring a lot of income to the Wu family every year. In this regard, the resentment in the inner house about Wu Shigong's dissipation of family property has been reduced a lot.
In addition, due to the inconvenience of carrying and decoction of herbal medicines, Zhili obtained patents for several pills he invented, and used the patents as a basis to jointly open a pharmacy with the Runing Army. With subsequent large-scale purchases by the Runing Army and the private sector, the company obtained patents.
great wealth.
You must know that in the territory controlled by the Runing Army in the future, although the policy of limited religious freedom was implemented, it also stipulated that no religious place could purchase land or real estate other than temples. In this way, wisdom is in your hands
