Chapter 11: Weese (11)
When Wei Ze left the Dongwang Mansion, he didn't know that he was already famous in both the Taiping Army and the Qing Army, and even if he knew about it, Wei Ze would only think that it was someone else's business. Finally finishing the work at hand, Wei Ze felt as if the strength in his body had been drained. At this time, all he had to do was hurry back to the station to rest. And the small amount of mental energy that Wei Ze could still gather at this time was completely for another task that he had to complete. That's where the camp is arranged.
After the Taiping army occupied Yong'an, the Qing army would soon launch a siege of Yong'an. Because of the war, a large number of people fled from Yong'an, and the Taiping army collected the vacant houses. Ten days ago, when Wei Ze led his subordinates to attack, he and his subordinates were stationed in two rooms in an ordinary courtyard, and these two rooms accounted for half of the house. Ten days later, when he returned to the station, Wei Ze was worried that the place had been occupied, but it was more urgent to return to Yang Xiuqing, so Wei Ze asked the brothers to go back to the station first.
When Weser arrived at the house, the imaginary quarrel that was likely to occur was not alive. There was no need to prepare any sentinels in the city, and the gate of the garrison was slightly closed, and no one could be seen quietly. Pushing open the tattered door, there was silence in the courtyard, and the doors of all four rooms were closed. When I opened one room, I saw five or six brothers lying neatly in the room, and they were laying their own marching bunks on the straw floor, and they slept very deeply and sweetly.
Looking at the four rooms one by one, Wei Zexian's other Taiping brothers who had been living with Wei Ze and them had moved away, and Wei Ze's troops completely occupied the house.
Why the other troops moved away, and where exactly they moved, Wei Ze didn't care at all at this time. He closed the gate of the courtyard, and lay down exhausted on the vacant grass that had been left in one part of the main house, and fell into a deep sleep in a moment.
Accumulating too much tiredness, Wei Ze slept until dawn this night. Even if someone around him was talking louder, which alarmed Wei Ze, Wei Ze continued to fall asleep as soon as he woke up. By the time he woke up completely, it was almost noon the next day.
The person in charge of logistics is Wu Changlin Asheng, a native of Guangdong, who followed Feng Yunshan to join the God Worship Sect relatively early. It can also be regarded as the category of "Guangxi old brothers". He didn't have any amazing talent, but he did have a great ability in Weeser's opinion, and that was to do things in a very orderly manner. If he told Lin Asheng what to do, he would do it quietly.
The logistics department was in charge of cooking, and when Wei Ze woke up, the smell of food wafted into the house. He hadn't eaten for nearly a day, and just smelling the smell made Wei Ze feel his appetite grow.
It is of course the rule of the Taiping Army to seize and hand over the Holy Treasury, and Wei Ze and they will not be so stupid as to really hand it over without leaving any of them. Wei Ze secretly ordered his brothers to hide some salt and gunpowder, and as for bacon, they had to hide it. And Wei Ze told Lin Asheng that he would not make bacon rice after returning to the city. At this time, Wei Ze did not smell the aroma of bacon.
"Wesmas, we didn't dare to call you when we saw that you were sleeping soundly. The meal was left for you. Zhang Yingchen, who was sitting and chatting with Wei Changrong and others, watched Wei Ze wake up and said in a tired voice.
"Hmm!" Wei Ze got up and tidied up his clothes, and when he went out, he saw seven or eight meals by the stove. There is a meal for one person in the army, and it seems that Wei Ze is not the latest to get up.
After gobbling up the meal, Wei Ze immediately returned to the house, "Ying Chen, Changrong." You two follow me to pick up the recruits. β
Zhang Yingchen was stunned for a moment, but Wei Changrong reacted quickly, "Fourth uncle, have you been promoted?" β
Wei Ze smiled, "I've been promoted to captain, and I'm about to lead new recruits." You two come with me. β
Wei Changrong and Zhang Yingchen were originally sitting on the grass bunk on the ground, and when they heard this, the two of them got up. Wei Changrong immediately shouted: "This recruit is our old brother in Guangxi? β
Zhang Yingchen's eyes are also shining, these days, his understanding of the "old brothers of Guangxi" is getting deeper and deeper, and after waking up with Wei Changrong today, he chatted for a while, and he talked about a lot of things clearly.
In Wei Changrong's description, Wei Ze's cousin Wei Changrong was a famous local Hakka hero before joining the Taiping Army, and he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and now he can be said to have experienced a hundred battles. As for Wei Ze, who is only 19 years old, he is a rising cadre among the local Hakka. Defeating the Tujia landlords' armed forces with a small number of elite troops, and even defeating the Qing army, was just commonplace.
After hearing this, Zhang Yingchen understood why Wei Ze and the soldiers of the "Old Taiping Army" were so brave and good at fighting. It is not that they have become brave and good at fighting now, but because they are brave and good at fighting, they finally chose to join the Taiping army that rebelled.
So when he went out with Wei Ze to receive recruits, Zhang Yingchen asked Wei Ze to teach martial arts. Wei Ze naturally would not refuse, but looking at Zhang Yingchen's excited appearance of scratching his ears and cheeks, Wei Ze did not feel particularly proud in his heart.
In Wei Ze's opinion, his kung fu is not something particularly worthy of boasting. The reason why he was able to practice Cheng dΓΉ, who killed people easily, naturally has a difficult story behind it.
From 175o years later, due to the rapid population growth, the Manchus began to implement the government-directed Great Migration. There were also many immigrants in Guangxi, which gave birth to the distinction between Tujia and Hakka. The Tujia are naturally locals, and the Hakka are outsiders.
The Hakka people who poured into Guangxi to reclaim land were full of contradictions with the local indigenous people in Guangxi. There is not much land in Guangxi, and the Hakka people and the locals often fight with each other for the problem of seizing tenants and farming. Due to the influence of the triad rebellion and the role of military education, the tragic vendetta between the Hakka and the local village community soon escalated. Convinced that they could not count on aid from corrupt and incompetent officials, the squires were convinced that they could not count on the aid of corrupt and incompetent officials, so they formed the Local Defense Coalition Groups, which led the affairs of the village community and mobilized the militias.
Whether it was a group formed by the gentry or a church formed by locals under the leadership of the triad, they all severely harmed the interests of the Hakka people. Under the pressure of survival, the Hakka people mobilized and began to show their armed forces.
In the fight between the locals and the Hakka people, the Hakka people have several unfavorable situations. They lacked the common family structure of the local wealthy people, and it was through clan cohesion that the armed forces could only be sustained. In addition, they may suffer from dispersed settlements, depending on their economic status, as they settle on small scattered plots of land along the borderlands. After 18oo years, the conflict between Turks and Guests intensified, and finally it became a Turkish War.
In the continuous fighting of substitute weapons, those Hakka villages that are poor and unable to defend themselves are often forced to leave their hometowns. Although the way of living and possessions were beneficial to the Tujia people, the common language allowed the Hakka people of all classes to unite to form a sizable armed force in the face of crisis. Due to the lack of blood ties between the Hakka people, their military organization is separated from the original form of the blood kinship group, and is very similar to the organizational form of the modern national standing army.
After the Hakka people had a formalized armed organization, the vendetta entered the stage of bunker warfare, and various villages were building bunkers, digging trenches, and "training the whole people were in full swing". As a result, the vast rural areas of Guangxi exercised autonomy by their own armed forces and were completely free from the control of the Qing court. Whether it is collecting taxes or maintaining order, the local yamen cannot effectively carry out these two main tasks, and this right is transferred to the hands of powerful armed groups. The rebellions and armed vendettas in Guangxi and other places made the local residents quickly adapt to the life of licking blood with knives, brave and brutal, and the powerful self-defense forces of the villagers made their contempt for the government unprecedented, in fact, this mediocre and violent court really did not have anything to pay attention to. Especially when the vendetta was unfolded to the bunker era, the peasants on the border of Guangxi and Hunan, the soldiers of the Green Battalion, whose military experience had not been trained for many years, and the middle and lower-level leaders of the Taiping Army, also quickly matured in these vendettas.
At that time, the border between Guangdong, Hunan and Guangxi was like a powder keg. As Hong Xiuquan said, "Wait until the wind and clouds gather together, and soar ** Dingkun Qian". The millions of tigers and wolves in Guangxi and Hunan only need a program and an idol to effectively organize them and become a huge force to change the situation.
After all, Wei Ze himself is a person of the 21st century, and during his more than three months in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he easily understood many of the internal characteristics of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. In particular, the characteristics of the "old brothers of Guangxi" were fully understood. It is not that the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom appeared first, and then there are these brave and warlike old brothers, but with this group of brave and warlike old brothers, there is the real core force of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
So Wei Ze didn't talk much along the way, and he was not optimistic that Yang Xiuqing would give it to his Guangxi brothers, and every Guangxi brother was a very valuable force for the Taiping Army. In fact, Wei Ze thinks that whether Yang Xiuqing will remember to give his subordinates is a question worth considering.
But what Yang Xiuqing did was Yang Xiuqing's business, and Wei Ze never thought that he had any reason to refuse what he should have done. If Yang Xiuqing forgot to explain to the prime minister below to supplement Wei Ze's subordinates, then the most important thing Wei Ze needed to do was to use the guΓ² system to remind Yang Xiuqing that he had some things to do.
However, after listening to Wei Ze's words, Hu Yihuang, the prime minister in charge of human resources, replied with a smile: "This matter has been ordered by the king of the east. Dongwang also specially asked me to make up for Brother Wei. I have prepared 1o4 brothers and handed them over to Captain Wei. β
Wei Ze was taken aback at this time, according to the system of the Taiping Army, four taels are pawns, and the chief of the pawns is the commander, and there are subordinate officials at the beginning of the pawn, and there are one hundred and four people in one pawn. Wei Ze originally had 23 subordinates, and he only needed to add 81 people to be full. Weeser didn't expect much from getting enough of it.
A pawn of 1o4 people, Wei Ze's original 22 subordinates are naturally under Wei Ze's continued command, plus the new 1o4 people added to Wei Ze, Wei Ze's troops have been organized. In the Taiping Army, the subordinates were basically led by officers. In other words, Weese's forces suddenly increased fourfold. And unless it was ordered by Yang Xiuqing, no one could deprive Wei Ze of his subordinates.
Wei Ze immediately said excitedly while giving a salute: "This is so grateful to the Prime Minister, thank you to the East King!" β
Hu Yihuang smiled, "Brother Wei, the king of the east also asked me to sue you, yesterday the king of the south asked the king of the east for you, and the king of the east has agreed to the king of the south." After you lead the troops, you will go directly to the king of the south to return to the king, and you will be the king of the south in the future! β
Hearing this, the smile on Wei Ze's face immediately stiffened. Because he was too shocked, Wei Ze's voice trembled a little next, "Prime Minister, don't joke with my brother." β
Hu Yihuang waved his hand, and Zhengse replied: "How dare I joke about this kind of thing." Brother Wei, the king of the south is so important to you, and brother Wei is a good man in our Taiping army, when you arrive under the king of the south and make military achievements, there is no need to talk about promotion! β
Wei Ze saw that Prime Minister Hu Yihuang was not joking at all, he paused for a moment, and then called Wei Changrong and Zhang Yingchen, who were also stunned by this big change, "Prime Minister, these two are my brothers, and I ask the Prime Minister to handle the matter of handing over the brothers with these two people." I'll go to the king of the east now. β
"Oh!" Hu Yihuang heard Wei Zeming say that he was going to see the East King, and he didn't say anything, just nodded.
Regardless of the others, Wei Ze immediately trotted all the way straight to the East Palace. Many thoughts were tumbling in Wei Ze's heart, and there was only one thing these thoughts had in common, "This is a big deal!" β
