Chapter 27: Storm in the South China Sea (4)

Everyone's eyes were focused on Su Dingbo, Ye Xun and Zhong Huizhi were as silent as water, Wu Xueliang remained calm, Huang Chengyou and Guangzhou Zhizhou Qian Yuan looked happy, and Chen Shifan was elated.

"If we return to Huangbing to prepare envoys, these armors belong to the militia battalion of Jinli Iron and Steel Plant. According to the imperial regulations, the militia battalion can be equipped with standard armor, as well as weapons such as bows and crossbows, and can be organized and drilled."

As soon as Su Dingbo said what he said, Chen Shifan and five local people's representatives jumped up, "That's nonsense. How can there be such a law? It's obviously you who fabricated it!"

Huang Chengyou and Qian Yuan looked at each other with complicated expressions.

Ye Xun waved his hand, "There is indeed this law. Zhong Changshi, please explain it to everyone."

"He is the county guard. According to the "Reserve Laws of the Song Dynasty", any factory that employs more than 100 men must form a militia team or militia battalion, which will be under the command of the local navy and land force reserve yamen, issue establishment numbers, and conduct unified drills.

.. If the Jinli Iron and Steel Plant employs more than 5,000 men, it can form a militia battalion."

"Is there really such a law? Aren't you afraid that they will gather in crowds to rebel?" Chen Shifan asked blankly.

Ye Xun and Zhong Huizhi smiled coldly. The governments of all dynasties were most afraid of men gathering together. The mines of this dynasty employed hundreds or thousands of miners, all of whom were overseers of a certain person and were under the jurisdiction of the government;

The purpose of military establishment is to use certain means of management to avoid gatherings of people to cause trouble.

Nowadays, with the advent of the New Deal, many factories employ hundreds or even thousands of workers. How to manage them? The government directly applies the rural military system in Hedong, Hebei and the northwest. It establishes militia teams and militia battalions, and directly sends officers from local military offices to carry out training, education and

Management uses semi-military methods to restrain these young people.

That is to prevent them from gathering in crowds to cause trouble, but also to conduct military training and cultivate a reserve force in case of emergency. The most important thing is that the Dian Military Administration can also secretly intervene to train these young adults through literacy, military and political studies, etc.

"Patriotism and loyalty to the emperor" education.

Even you little people don’t understand.

"It turns out it's militia training, so it's reasonable and legal." Ye Xun nodded in agreement, "Militia training is one of the local tasks that the government attaches great importance to. Jinli Factory can actively cooperate. It seems that the imperial court's promotion of the New Deal in the southeast has not been in vain.

It’s a lot of hard work.”

Zhong Huizhi turned to Chen Shifan and others unceremoniously, with a serious tone.

"Teacher Chen, and the five of you, just now reported the Jinli Steel Plant for treason. Now it's proven to be a false accusation. What crime should we be punished for?"

The scene was filled with solemn silence. Chen Shifan and the other five people were so frightened that they were trembling with fear. Those who committed treason and rebelled were punished with at least three thousand miles of exile. According to the law of the Song Dynasty, the three thousand miles of exile were from north to south and south to north.

Nanhai County will naturally go to places like Mobei in the Northeast to serve the country.

The thought of going to these cold and freezing places to be deployed in front of the army made Chen Shifan and others feel cold.

Qian Yuan coughed so hard that his lungs almost vomited out. Huang Chengyou's face turned white and blue for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth amidst Qian Yuan's coughing and finally spoke.

"The establishment of the militia battalion at Jinli Steel Plant has been officially canceled by the Department of Arms and Arms. The militia camp at Jinli Steel Plant is illegal!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene changed.

Chen Shifan and others felt like they had narrowly escaped death, especially Chen Shifan, who was like a bad wolf whose tail had been bitten off and vowed to take revenge. He stared at Su Dingbo with a look of pride and viciousness on his face, wanting to eat Su Dingbo in one bite.

.

Qian Yuan's eyes were shining with pride, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he couldn't contain the joy in his heart.

Huang Chengyou had a broken face.

What he said just now is a complete break with Su Dingbo, which is also tantamount to a break with the New Deal forces behind Su Dingbo. It shows that he no longer has a vague attitude, but directly stands with the Twelve Nanhai Families.

"Since it is illegal, Jinli Factory's equipment and training of soldiers and armor can certainly be regarded as an act of rebellion."

Zhong Huizhi looked furious, but there was nothing he could do about it. Militia matters were within the purview of the Department of Arms and Armament, and the Chief Secretary had no control at all. He could only look to Huang Chengyou to have the final say.

Ye Xun said in a bad tone: "Huang Bingbei, this is a big deal, not a trivial matter. Don't make the mistake of Hu Tu."

Huang Chengyou's expression changed a few times, and finally he gritted his teeth. The words had been spoken, and he could not take them back.

"Governor Ye, this is a major matter, and I dare not neglect it. The document to abolish the militia camp was sent to Jinli Factory last month, and it was personally reviewed and approved by my envoy."

Huang Chengyou was about to pursue the victory and gave an order: "The Department of Arms and Armament has abolished the establishment of your militia battalion. You still need to equip soldiers and gather people to cause trouble. I suspect you of treason! Come on, arrest all of them.

Arrested."

"Yes!" the personal troops he brought responded loudly.

Qian Yuan looked at Ye Xun and Zhong Huizhi, his eyes half-smiling but not smiling, but he said, "It's hard for us to interfere in military affairs like this, and we can't go beyond the rules!"

Chen Shifan and others almost jumped up for joy. On the ground in the South China Sea, the twelve families still have the final say!

"Wait!" Su Dingbo said loudly, "Jinli Factory is indeed a militia camp!"

"Absurd! This envoy has canceled the establishment of your militia battalion, how can it still belong to the militia camp? Su Dingbo, according to the system, the reserve establishment must be awarded by the Armed Forces Department of this county. I know that you are in the southeast, Jiangdong, Donghai, Huaidong, etc.

The county's militia establishment is readily available. However, in Nanhai County, the envoy does not recognize it and will not count it."

Chen Shifan and others excitedly clapped their hands and echoed: "Yes! Huang Bingbei has the final say! You can reach the sky with your hands and eyes, but in this place in the South China Sea, you have to stay calm!"

Su Dingbo said disdainfully: "Nanhai County has more than one yamen, the Nanhai Military Preparation Department, that can grant militia establishment. After the Jinli Iron and Steel Plant was abolished from the Nanhai County Sixth Militia Battalion, ten days ago it was awarded the Nanhai Military Preparation Department by the Lingnan Coastal Defense Control Department.

The establishment of the 1st Coast Guard Militia Battalion."

After speaking, he also took out an official document.

"What! Lingnan Coastal Defense Control Department?" Huang Chengyou was dumbfounded.

The Lingnan Coastal Defense Control Department, stationed in Daxishan, Dongguan County (Hong Kong), is responsible for the coastal defense security of Yulin and Nanhai counties. There are three coastal defense fleets, stationed in Daxishan at the Pearl River Estuary, Chaozhou Haiyang Nan'ao Island and

Lianzhou Hepu Port.

At the beginning of the year, Li Yue's navy pretended to be water thieves and attacked Qin and Lianzhou. If the coastal defense fleet at Hepu Port had not fought desperately, the losses would have been even greater.

It is at the same level as the Armed Forces Department of Nanhai and Yulin counties, so it naturally has the right to establish coastal defense militia battalions. The coastal defense force not only has a coastal defense fleet, but also a small number of coastal defense regiments. Therefore, the Coastal Defense Control Department awarded Jinli Steel

The establishment of the factory and the Nanhai Coast Defense First Militia Battalion is flawless and in line with the rules and regulations.

Huang Chengyou seemed to have been slapped in the face. He realized that something was wrong, and he might steal the chicken but lose the rice. At this time, he no longer thought of the family's huge wealth and beautiful wife and concubines, but the general backstage of the New Deal——

Official means and courage.

As he thought about it, his forehead and back were sweating, and his body was so weak that he was teetering.

Qian Yuan's face was also livid, and his teeth were almost broken.

But Chen Shifan and others were on the verge of tears. The ups and downs of life... are really too exciting, and we really can't stand it.

Ye Xun looked at the document submitted by Su Dingbo and handed it to Huang Chengyou casually - if you have the ability, tear it up. The Control Department has the foundation for this thing. If you tear it up in anger, it will not only not help, but also add another crime.

I don’t even think about it. As long as the Song Dynasty seafarers used new-style ships, both military and civilians, they could be related to Fan Donghai. He was either a student or an old member. As his son-in-law, he was a member of the Lingnan Coastal Defense Control Department and Binanhai County.

The door of the Arms and Armament Department should be easy to enter.

"Since the establishment of the Jinli Factory's militia battalion is legal, then the six people from Chen Shifan must have made false accusations, and they must be dismissed! Wudu Hall, it is your turn to take action."

Ye Xun said calmly.

"It's the county guard!" Wu Xueliang responded respectfully and shouted, "Come here, get Chen Shifan and others!"
