Most of the Han people who could survive in the harsh environment on the grassland had a bit of toughness in their bones, and the Mongolian methods of managing them were no different from herding, so slaves often had to fight with each other for a little benefit. They were
After being relocated to Jinshan City, Shi Mo also led his people to manage it very carefully. However, because most of the people in each shack were reorganized and were not assigned according to the original 1000 households or 100 households, various internal conflicts continued and he only controlled the shacks.
Just so as not to be discovered by the superiors.
A thin man like Lu Wusi was beaten several times and always failed in his fight for food. Fortunately, the man with dark circles was not a villain. He was fierce at first, but later he took over the position of leader of the shack and distributed the food.
It was generally fair. Lu Wusi could get one or two rice balls from him every time, so he wouldn't be hungry.
Everyone in the shack looked at the man with dark circles under his eyes.
The man laughed dryly, took the chicken in his hand, and said to everyone: "Don't stare like that... Bring some firewood and follow me to the stove in the back. Once it's cooked, everyone will share it."
Lu Wusi thought for a while and threw the other fat chicken over: "The chicken wings belong to me, and the rest should be divided among everyone!"
The atmosphere in the entire shack suddenly became lively.
By lunch time, the twenty people in this shack had become the center of envy around them. Many people said that if they went for an errand and could catch two chickens back, the navy officers must have been kind.
Over the past few days, these slaves have become more and more relaxed. Although they are still skinny, they seem to have more energy, and they have more private discussions about Ding Haijun. At this time, some people were chatting and saying:
"I thought that the army that could defeat the Mongolian master must be ruthless and capable of killing people. In the past two days, it seems that they are really polite and treat us as the same people."
"Not only are they polite to us, but the generals and commanders in their own army also don't show off."
"Yes, that Zhao Xuan is the general who guards Jinshan City. He has more than 3,000 armored soldiers under his command. I heard that half a year ago he took two broadswords and slashed from Tongxuan Gate to Fengyi Gate! Look at what he is doing
In this city, don’t you walk around with a smile every day and chat with the soldiers everywhere?”
"The officers of the Ding Navy also eat the same food as the soldiers! The stoves are all in one place! Another general, Zhang Shao, invites meritorious soldiers to eat with him every day!"
"After all, it is Han'er's own army. If the army is like this, the common people will become meat on the ground. I guess the life of farming for them will not be bad."
"Speaking of farming, we went to the warehouse in the north of the city this morning and carried rakes, hoes, shovels and other tools. They were all useful iron tools, at least more than two thousand pieces. I think Ding Haijun is serious about farming.
Yes. By the way, did you see the newly opened ditches at Baiyan Spring in the west of the city yesterday? It looked like they were done by experienced farmers..."
"Who is not a veteran of farming? What I'm anxious about is the regulations for farming! What percentage do we get when a crop of grain is harvested? What percentage do the military men get? The regulations haven't come down yet, which is really worrying."
"Autumn is about to begin, and sooner or later this matter will be ordered. Why are you in a hurry?"
While chatting, someone whispered: "Ahem, speaking of this, I heard some news."
"What news? Tell me quickly."
"At the east end of the camp where women and children were, a woman said that she was asked by a military commander to help her. She mended her clothes and collected the soles of her shoes, and she came back in just an hour. The military commander asked her not to say anything and secretly gave her
We have money and food! You say, we get benefits from doing this, and farming is so hard, so how can the Navy still treat us badly?"
His words came out, but he did not receive the expected response. Instead, they aroused suspicious glances from all around. Many people's attention turned to another aspect.
"An hour? Just sewing and fixing the soles, is there any benefit? Could it be that and that..." Someone whispered, actually a little envious: "It is easier for these women to live, just lie down like this..."
"You fart!"
The Han'er slave who had spoken earlier was furious: "These military men who command the navy are all strong and powerful. I heard that they are all country squires in Shandong. What kind of women do they want? They can look at those black coals in Dongying. They are covered with charcoal."
You stinking bitch! Just mending clothes and tying shoe soles!"
When the man said this, he looked around, pointed at Lu Wusi and said: "Lu Wusi went out for two hours in the morning, and he brought Fat Chicken with him when he came back. Could it be that he was also slept with by the military commander above?"
Everyone laughed loudly. Someone said: "He has thin skin and tender flesh, like a girl. It's not impossible..."
The man with dark circles immediately jumped out and yelled, and the men in the same shack as Lu Wusi also all supported him for the sake of the fat chicken.
There was a commotion for a while, and Shi Mo, who was not far away, also noticed it first. The old man glanced at it and said a few words to the Mongolian prisoners of war beside him.
After all, the Mongols still have some power, and everyone knows that they are all prisoners who surrendered after being defeated by the Ding Navy. However, these prisoners are more terrifying to the Han slaves than the officers of the Ding Navy. Just as the Mongolian prisoners of war were about to come over, they made a fuss.
The voice suddenly dropped.
After a while, the aroma of roasted chicken and rice balls came out, and everyone felt happy again after smelling the smell.
A young man wiped his saliva and said expectantly: "If the navy's regulations don't deceive people, we can always save some money by farming for a few years. By then I will have to find a way to find a woman..."
At this point, he raised his hands and made a kneading gesture: "As long as it's a woman, I don't mind it even if it smells like sheep."
The weather is not cold these days, and people are energetic when they have food to eat. The entire current discussion has distorted the indescribable aspects.
However, after coming to Jinshan for a few days, all kinds of details clearly fell into everyone's eyes, and some information was obtained one after another. Everyone can be sure that this army is really the same as the Tatars on the grassland.
The army is different, and it is not the same as the army of the Jin Dynasty in my memory.
Some people already have a vague feeling that these naval officers are "family members".
In fact, Guo Ning did not specifically emphasize the national attributes of the army. His army was a new sprout that broke out of the huge zombie of the Kingdom of Jin. Due to various factors, there was no need to publicize some words.
In the Ding Navy, there have been many wild Jurchens sent from the Liaodong Campaign in the past few months, and there are even more Khitans and Bohai people who surrendered after the war in Zhongdu. Guo Ning never talks about his ethnic group in his official military orders.
No order was issued to kill Hu.
However, the structure of the Ding Navy determines that they are an army composed of landowners, big and small. Those who are willing to obtain land from the military government and obtain more land through military exploits are always Han'er, even if there are foreigners included.
They are a foreign race with a strong Chinese culture.
As for the wild Jurchens from Liaodong, they were the main targets of the Dinghai navy's ethnic integration. The process of large numbers of them being signed into the army was that the foreign races from the northeast were constantly moved into Shandong by the Dinghai navy, and then dispersed and resettled, forcing them to gradually hear about Han
words, the process of learning Chinese characters.
Guo Ning didn't want to preach equality between officers and soldiers in the army. That kind of thing that transcends the times may not be implemented in a thousand years, let alone now. Soldiers serve as soldiers to eat food, and to perform meritorious service to get rewards.
Rich and noble, if anyone tries to reduce the treatment of different military ranks to the same level, the soldiers themselves will not agree.
But every ordinary soldier in the Ding navy controls multiple households at the same time and has certain local governance rights. They are not the same as the poor people in the Jin Kingdom who were forced to sign the army. They are not the same as those in the Mongolian army.
A wolf that howls because of poverty is not the same thing.
Ordinary soldiers in the Ding Navy can also live a comfortable life and are dignified and respectable people. Compared with them, the generals only have more land and more people to shelter from. Due to the limitations of the system, as time goes by,
The differences between the two parties will eventually become larger and larger, but in three to five years, they will not be completely different.
Some veterans of the navy cannot be promoted because they really cannot pass the level of literacy and numeracy. They have gained a lot of land through their accumulated merits. When the officers above return to their hometowns, they may still have to rely on their talents.
Stable place.
On the other hand, the Ding Navy is in a period of rapid expansion. As long as the soldiers can pass the basic cultural and educational courses and perform meritorious service in several battles, they can be easily promoted. This month they will be in the army, and next month they will become lieutenants.
Examples of generals are everywhere.
And this promotion process, because of the fierce battles one after another, there is no possibility for the officers to give and receive privately.
In this way, the upper and lower classes in the navy are not separated from each other, and ordinary soldiers also have considerable prospects to look forward to. This creates a relatively equal relationship.
This is certainly the case in the army. Even the prisoners in front of them, the officers and soldiers of Dinghai Navy generally feel that they cannot be ignored.
None of them look like human beings. But there is no guarantee that they will become military households in a few months. According to the rules of the navy, the probability of transforming from a homeless household to a military household is really high...
For example, Ge Qingshu, the officer in charge of maintaining order at the moment, was a soldier who joined the army in Laizhou two years ago. At that time, he was arranged by Wang Shixian to be on duty at the watchtower outside Haicang Town. As a result, he was unexpectedly attacked by the Mongolian army and set on fire.
Everyone in the team died, but he survived. He still has large scars from the fire on his body.
Now that Ge Qingshu is the number one figure in the army, who knows whether there will be a leader among the Han slaves in two or three years?
After all, we are all in northern Xinjiang. Even if the Mongols are not so arrogant, they will always fight. Guo Ning, the commander of Dinghai Navy, was just a pawn three years ago. Who among the soldiers can look down on whom?
As for Zhao Xuan and Zhang Shao's generous treatment of the soldiers, it was the basic means for heroes to win over the morale of the military in Tangluo, Hebei Province. There are special courses taught in the military academy. In such troubled times, it is always necessary to rely on the soldiers to fight hard to win over the bottom class.
The soldiers are all angry. Are you looking for death?
This is what the Jurchens did back then, and as a result, countless generals and officers died on the battlefields from Yehuling to Juyongguan. When the land was being renovated around Jinshan Mountain, rotten corpses and even bones of soldiers were dug up from time to time. With such a reminder, who would do it again?
Making the same mistake?
In the Ding Navy, the officers who ran all the way back from Yehuling were not dead yet, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at them!
