Zhang Huahan looked at the burly workers working diligently, and the molten iron poured out of the tall steel-making furnaces flowed into various molds. He thought about the construction work he had inspected earlier and the people building their own homes in full swing, and thought to himself: "
People's enthusiasm is still very high, and it seems that people's thinking can still adapt to advanced society.
At night, outside the tent on the steel and cement-filled housing construction site in Chinatown, the short Wang Liu leaned against Zhao Qijin, who was next to him, and gathered dozens of people. After entering the tent, Wang Liu asked one person to
Watching outside, he turned to everyone and said: "Brothers, among you are our former colleagues from the Dashun Army, as well as new brothers. In the past two days, we have been checking Zhang Huahan's details and investigating that he robbed our Dashun Army.
The silver taels have basically come to fruition. Everyone has seen the strange things here in Zhang Huahan, needless to say, and we discovered that among the silver wages they paid, the large pieces of ingots have the names of many previous emperors of the Ming Dynasty. They must have
It's money from our Dashun Army. We will send our brothers to report the news to Prime Minister Niu. We will continue to observe the strange situation here." Then they discussed their future plans.
In a tent outside another steelmaking workshop, there were dozens of people discussing. They were craftsmen sent by the Manchu Qing Dynasty and were planning to report the situation to their masters.
A room on the sixth floor of a building that was about to be built was crowded with more than eighty former bandits, who were planning to rob and then go south to live happily ever after.
In the military camp, Zhang Huahan assigned each of the three battalions to send one of the strongest companies to defend the mountain stronghold, and distributed fifty breech-loading rifles, eight hundred rounds of ammunition, one hundred explosive packets, and fifty new ones to each company.
Zhang Chao newly invented grenades and two stainless steel knives, and sent them more ammunition and breech-loading guns every once in a while.
After these assignments were completed, a soldier whispered a few words to Wang Hong. Wang Hong walked up to Zhang Huahan and whispered: "Mrs. Dingrou, oh, Miss, you have personally come to deliver something to the regimental commander." He originally wanted to say, "Mrs.
, but after all, Zhang Huahan and Ding Rou were not married yet, so they changed their name to Miss Cheng. Zhang Huahan felt a sense of guilt in his heart when he heard Ding Rou's name. Since he came here, he has never seen her outside of work.
Several times it was time to report on work and assign tasks.
He asked Wang Hong to take Ding Rou into his private tent, and he went back to his tent after finishing his official duties. After he entered, he saw Ding Rou packing up his tent, and the soldier who served him was listening carefully to her story.
My own habits, favorite foods and some things I pay attention to.
Zhang Huahan didn't expect that Ding Rou would observe everything about him so carefully. Although Zhang Huahan's soul had the same habits as Zhang Cai's soul in this body because of the same gun used, there were still slight differences.
Because he had previous memories, Zhang Huahan knew these subtle differences, but Ding Rou did not. However, Ding Rou was familiar with the person who had Zhang Huahan's soul and body who had only been with him for a few days. He was very moved and happy in his heart, and left
He went in and let Xiao Bing go to rest. He took Ding Rou, who was very happy when she saw him, to sit down. He said, "Ding Rou, I'm sorry, I haven't had time to accompany you. My time is very tight. Now we are leaving."
Several cities not far away have been captured by the Qing army, and the Qing army has almost reached Tongguan. Our time is too tight now, I'm sorry for you."
Ding Rou looked at Zhang Huahan's face and said: "I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child. I have dreamed that my husband has two roles. One is a great hero who serves the country and the people as the storytelling master said, and the other is someone who can love me and truly love me."
My man. To be honest, when I first saw you, I thought you were not one of the two types of people, and you looked down on me a little. After my father and two senior brothers died to avenge your family, you didn’t even make the minimum arrangements.
None, he just randomly found a piece of land to bury them, and he didn't show any respect to me. He also arranged for someone to find a well-matched girl. My heart was very cold. In fact, when you came to my room, I knew it was you, so
I kicked you hard, but I didn't expect to kick you to death. I regret it now. You were not sorry for me anyway, and my father and the others died just to repay a favor. I can't blame him.
In your case, I also learned the medical skills to treat trauma when I was practicing martial arts, and I also saw dead people. I tried my best and even used internal force to stimulate your heart but I couldn't save you. At that time, I just planned to pay off the debt with one life.
.As a result, you came back to life again. I am very happy that you did not die. As a result, you were very kind to me immediately. I knew that you were definitely not the same person. Not only were you very kind to me, but you also had great ambitions to serve the country and the people.
, it’s so miraculous, I can’t believe it. After I said this, you may say that I am vain or complicated. I just want to tell you that I have given my heart to you, and I hope you will treat me well in the future.”
Zhang Huahan was still a little happy in his heart. The other party still loved him and not the soul of Zhang Cai, but he couldn't tell the truth. What happened to him was unbelievable. She didn't believe it even if he told her, so she could only say: "Originally, I am dead, but
My soul met Zhang Chao. You also know that he is an immortal. He saved me and told me that I was destined to promote China to become the most powerful country in the world. He came to help me, but my mind was originally
I didn’t open my mind and didn’t understand anything, so I asked him to open my mind and I was resurrected. As soon as I was resurrected, I asked him to help me. The person I used to be is not the person I am now, but I am still the master of this body.
If you are dissatisfied with me in the past, let me make up for it in the present." After he said it, he felt like he was telling tongue twisters.
Ding Rou gently lay on Zhang Huahan's chest and whispered: "I made you some clothes and some pairs of shoes. The weather is about to turn cold. You have to be careful about your health. You are carrying a heavy burden. Everyone
But they are all counting on you! Hero, you must not fall. There is a little girl Ding Rou who will pray for you every day and will wait for her hero to come and pick her up." Then she ran away shyly.
When I went out, three people suddenly shouted "Ah!" outside. One was Ding Rou who had just gone out, one was Zhang Yuer who came with Ding Rou, and the other was Wang Hong who was talking to his wife Zhang Yuer.
When Zhang Huahan and Wang Hong, who had seen off Zhang Yue'er and Ding Rou at the gate of the military camp, were about to turn around, Zhang Gao rode over with two guards and saw Zhang Huahan. After getting off his horse, he said breathlessly: "Young Master,
Huhu, there is, huhu, a spy."
Zhang Huahan immediately let him into his tent, poured him a glass of water, and said to him: "Slow down your breath and speak slowly." Zhang Gao was just running in a hurry. He was not thirsty and did not drink water and said to Zhang Huahan:
"Master, your influence is really powerful. Now I have three thousand informants, all of whom are very loyal. According to the intelligence they collected, we have 123 Dashun Army spies here, and eight of them have been sneaked in.
Brother, eight gangs of bandits or bandits came to fish in troubled waters. There were as few as fifty people and as many as more than a hundred people. They were all mixed with our people. There were also more than sixty spies who helped the Qing army.
There are some of our people mixed in, but they are not from the Qing army, but go to the Qing army to collect rewards. I found that our fellow villagers who came to join us are all loyal, and these people are all people who came in later."
After Zhang Huahan thought about it, he felt that it was better to use ideas to make people consciously fight against the opposition elements. This was the only way to unite the people internally and frighten the enemy's spies.
The next day, eight hundred spies and bandits who wanted to fish in troubled waters were caught. Everyone was called to come and have a public trial of them. Then they publicized that they wanted to destroy everyone's Datong society. Everyone used their own power to judge them. The results were:
Eight hundred people were tortured to death by the common people. Some were hanged, some were impaled to death with nail boards, and some were hacked to death with random knives. The two most miserable bandits had many of their families killed by the bandits.
The people tore off the flesh piece by piece and were willing to bite it.
In the end, even Zhang Huahan couldn't stand it anymore, but Zhang Huahan let all the soldiers watch, so that they could see more cruel things and hone themselves more.
After handling the spy incident, Zhang Huahan asked Zhang Liang to bring in the spies who had infiltrated the spies and all the people who participated in the incident and made meritorious services. After rewarding them with some silver coins, they used these people as the backbone to establish an organization called Dark Night.
The intelligence department, headed by Zhang Gao, took a large amount of unmarked money and treasure and began to secretly lurk throughout the country to develop an intelligence network.
Zhang Huahan began to expand the army, preparing to expand the three battalions and private companies into three regiments and a special battalion. He recruited more than 7,000 new soldiers and began unified training. He also broke up the old troops and rebuilt them. The original regiment-affiliated sharpshooting companies and regiments
The artillery company (actually a company composed of people who are selected to hit the explosive packets accurately) is divided into three regiments, and they are prepared to use them as the backbone to select outstanding newcomers to expand into their respective regiment-affiliated companies.
The special battalion selects all-round warriors who are good at shooting, skilled in blasting, and can fire explosive packages accurately. But the requirements are too high, and now only more than a hundred soldiers can barely do it. Among them
There are also many soldiers from the original regimental sharpshooting company and regimental artillery company.
Zhang Huahan's original soldier company was also disbanded into three new regiments, leaving only twelve more skilled soldiers as guards and two child soldiers under the age of fourteen who could only run errands and do odd jobs. Zhang Huahan wanted Wang to
Hong became an officer, but Wang Hong refused to do so. In the end, he was still his personal bodyguard, and Wang Meng also strongly requested to be Zhang Huahan's personal bodyguard. Father and son were naturally unwilling to do anything else except practice martial arts. When Wang Meng was the company commander, they all
It was his adjutant who trained and handled the affairs of the company. He only trained everyone in martial arts. After his various pleas, Zhang Huahan finally had to agree.
Zhang Huahan no longer held the title of officer. He added the title of chairman of Chinatown. He also appointed Zhang Liang as the commander of the first regiment, Li Wenhua as the commander of the second regiment, and Zhao Qiang as the commander of the third regiment. The outstanding officers of the three regiments were promoted.
, and also promoted many outstanding soldiers to junior officers.
Since the special battalion lacked soldiers, the veterans strengthened their training and tried to fill up the shortfall in the special battalion. In order to increase everyone's enthusiasm, Zhang Huahan raised the salary of the soldiers and officers of the special battalion to one level higher than that of the other three regiments.
level, and the special battalion did not have a battalion commander, Zhang Huahan had to ask Zhang Chao, who trained them, to take the name of battalion commander first, and let Wen Gaofei, the former adjutant of the private company, be the deputy battalion commander to handle everything in the battalion except formulating training and counseling.
thing.
All troops canceled the position of adjutant and became deputy regimental commander and deputy battalion commander. Some scholars with advanced ideas and knowledge of historical military were selected to study Zhang Chao's military manual. After studying well, they could become deputy company commanders by passing the examination.
Those who are not very qualified but are enterprising can become deputy platoon leader or deputy squad leader.dd
