Chapter 6: Restoration Camp

Zhu Dashan woke up after sleeping for two hours, and then he didn't dare to sleep anymore and walked into the county office alone. found that Huang Boyuan was already in the county office, but he didn't look very good. At this time, I saw Zhu Dashan walk in and blame: "You add things to the meal, and you can say nothing." I'll just eat less, and I won't make such a big fuss. Zhu Dashan hurriedly smiled: "At that time, the situation was also urgent, and it was too late to notify." I'm making amends to Uncle Huang. Huang Boyuan didn't say anything when he saw that Zhu Dashan was making amends, and when he saw that Zhu Dashan only one person came in, he said, "Why is one person, what about the others?" Zhu Dashan told him about going to the county jail for interrogation last night.

Huang Boyuan listened carefully and said: "So this Qing soldier is not coming for us, then we have at least one more day." Zhu Dashan also nodded and said: "That's what I estimated, but judging from the battle with the Qing soldiers last night, our people will not fight, and the orders are different." If there are not many soldiers sent by Boryeong Mansion, the defense of the city can still hold on. If they encounter it outside the city, they will probably be defeated before they can fight. ”

Huang Boyuan nodded in agreement, and then said: "There is also the reorganization of the army, you have to make everyone so messy again." You don't have to wait for the Qing soldiers to fight, you can run for your lives! Suddenly laughed: "How did I forget him." Why don't you go to Hu Jijiang. Zhu Dashan was puzzled: "Hu Jijiang? Who is he? Huang Boyuan said: "He is the master of the county." Zhu Dashan remembered the situation of the master in front of the county government yesterday, and frowned: "Can he do it?" ”

Huang Boyuan said: "It's okay, Hu Jijiang, this kid, is afraid of death and soft bones." But he has a learned belly, and he knows the military establishment you need, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, that dog thing knows that he used to be the staff of Governor Hu Shixiang and the counselor of military affairs. Later, when Hu Shixiang was captured, he surrendered to the Qing army, but the southern county had been a necessary place for the Qing army in the past few years. So the magistrate asked him to come out to pick him up. He is familiar with military affairs when he arrives, so it's right to look for him. ”

Zhu Dashan only understood after listening to Huang Boyuan's explanation, so he asked someone to find Hu Jijiang. asked people to get a knife again, and then Zhu Dashan sat in the county hall with a knife and waited for Hu Jijiang with a knife and pestle. As soon as Hu Jijiang was brought in, he looked at the posture, and suddenly his legs were weak, and he knelt in the lobby and cried: "A good man spare his life, a good man, I surrender." ”

Zhu Dashan was happy and said with a smile: "You surrender?" What is the purpose of your surrender and what is the use? I still have to waste food to feed you, I think it's better to kill it. Hu Jijiang was even more frightened when he heard this, and he almost peed his pants. Busy said: "I'm useful, I'm useful." As long as the hero goes around me, I will do whatever you say. Zhu Dashan picked up the knife and gestured twice: "Okay, then tell me, what is the difference between the military system of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty?" If you want to say it well, I will spare you, and if you dare to talk nonsense, I will kill you now. ”

When Hu Jijiang heard that he could live, he did not hesitate and said: "I said, I said, the military system of this Ming Dynasty is the system of guards, and I don't know how many guards there are in the entire Ming Dynasty." But the guard is divided into tuntian and recruitment, and the guard of the tuntian system was founded by Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, but most of them were abandoned in the late Ming Dynasty. At this time, the imperial court mostly adopted the conscription system. As soon as Zhu Dashan heard this, he was about to go to Java, and hurriedly said: "Of course I know this, you mainly talk about the number of soldiers and the allocation of generals, don't talk about the rest." ”

Hu Jijiang didn't dare to object, and hurriedly said: "If you want to talk about soldiers!" A guard post in the Ming Dynasty set up a commander, and commanded 5,600 soldiers. There are 5,000 households under the guard, set up 1,000 households, and lead 1,120 soldiers, and 1000 households under 1,000 households, set up 100 households, and lead 112 soldiers, and 100 households have two general flags, set up general flags, and lead 50 soldiers, and there are five small flags under the general flag, each flag has 10 people. Then there is the addition of guerrilla generals, generals, general soldiers, admirals, governors, and governors to the imperial court. If necessary, transfer a few more guards and horses. This is the Ming military system,"

Zhu Dashan said again: "What about the Qing soldiers? Hu Jijiang said: "The Qing soldiers are simple, the Qing soldiers are divided into eight banners, yellow, yellow, red, red, white, white, blue, and blue." Three hundred people for a cow record, the leading officer called the cow record is true, the five cattle record is a Jiala, the leading officer is called a solid mountain, the leading officer is called a solid mountain, and the leading officer is called a solid mountain. This solid mountain is generally the banner owner, and the corresponding Han names are Zuo Ling, Shen Ling, and Dutong. The Eight Banners also have the Eight Banners of Manchuria, the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of Han. In addition to these, some of the surrendered Qing troops and local Qing troops in the Ming Dynasty were called Green Battalions. These military systems are just a mess, some according to the Ming system, and some according to the Qing system. ”

Zhu Dashan saw that Hu Jijiang said in detail, and he secretly wrote it down. Then he said to Hu Jijiang: "I can't see it, Master Hu is still a great talent!" Hu Jijiang hurriedly said modestly: "Don't dare, I have already said it honestly, you can spare me!" Zhu Dashan said: "Okay! But you're a great talent, and I'm going to let you go. If you surrender again, we'll be in trouble. Hu Jijiang hurriedly said: "No, absolutely not" Zhu Dashan didn't want to let him go, and said coldly: "Now you have two choices, either be my master, or I will kill you, you choose yourself!" ”

Hu Jijiang screamed: "You didn't say it just now! How can a good man be untrustworthy in his words. Zhu Dashan said: "I don't believe in my words, what should I do!" You hurry up and choose, I don't have patience," Hu Jijiang had no choice but to cry: "I chose you to be the master." When Zhu Dashan heard the great joy, he hurriedly threw the knife in his hand, turned around and helped Hu Jijiang up and said: "Haha, welcome Master Hu to join, with Master Hu's full support in the future, we will definitely restore the Ming Dynasty." Hu Jijiang's superficial ecstasy soup for Zhu Dashan was like a mosquito buzzing in his ears. just scolded Zhu Dashan in his heart for being a dog-faced, and he said that he would change. Zhu Dashan said a few words, and when he saw Hu Jijiang ignoring it, he also felt bored. took Hu Jijiang to the place where Huang Boyuan Dao recruited troops.

Of course, it is impossible to talk about voluntary recruitment now, and Huang Boyuan actually recruited 150 people half coerced and half forced. Zhu Dashan looked at the soldiers who had just been recruited, most of them were thin, and there were not many strong ones. The strong ones who wanted to be strong had already been forcibly taken away by the Qing soldiers. In addition, there has been a famine in northern Sichuan in recent years, and planting some food has also been forcibly expropriated by the government, so it is not easy for those who have not eaten to live, and they can still grow strong there. Now Zhu Dashan can't take care of so much, even if he can recruit troops, even if he is good, he can't pick and choose the fat and the thin. Thinking of this, Huang Boyuan gathered all these people at the gate of the county government. Then I will also be a county office.

After listening to Hu Jijiang's introduction of the military system of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing court, Zhu Dashan had an eyebrow for the reorganization of the army. Asked people to find Gou Xingwang, Cheng Dequn and two brothers, Lin Zhuang, Song Gaoju, Zhou Dazhu, Zhang Yongquan and Wang Laotou. After everyone arrived, Zhu Dashan said: "No matter what the reason, we are now the anti-thieves of the Qing court, and we can't survive if we don't fight with the Qing soldiers." But if you want to survive, you have to have an army. Without an army, we are scattered sand, and we can only be slaughtered by others. Now I have called everyone here to discuss the reorganization of the army, and whose banner we want to serve. Who will be in command at the moment, let's all say! ”

Everyone look at me, I look at you, and in the end, Gou Xingwang couldn't help but say: "I said that it will be commanded by the Dashan brothers, didn't you say yesterday that you want to resist the Qing Dynasty and restore your sight?" Everyone is under the banner of Daming. "Old man Wang is fifty years old this year, and without the momentum of young people, it doesn't matter who will command him. Seeing what Gou Xingwang said, he said: "I think it's also the mountain baby, you will command." The most people think about now is how to survive, and when they hear this, they all say: "Yes, yes, you should be in charge." ”

Zhu Dashan saw that everyone agreed to take command by himself, and the rhetoric that he was preparing to fight for command was useless. Then he said: "Since everyone agrees, then I will talk about the reorganization of the team." Zhu Dashan looked at everyone, saw that everyone was listening, and said: "Since we have served the banner of the Ming Dynasty, then we will continue to use the military system of the Ming Dynasty." Except for the five people in the granary, twenty people in the county jail, five people who helped treat the wounded soldiers, and ten people who cooked with Wang Lao. Not counting these people, there are 10 soldiers stationed at the west, south, and north gates, 20 people at the east gate, and 60 people who are now living in the county office. The yellow officials recruited another 150 people in the county seat. We now have exactly three hundred soldiers. According to the military system, there is a small flag for ten people, five flags for one general flag, two general flags for one hundred households, and one hundred and twelve people for every hundred households. However, according to our current situation, I have changed it to ten people and one small flag, one person is selected as a small flag officer, appointed by the general flag, five flags are one general flag, there is a chief flag officer, a deputy chief flag, and five other men, and one person is selected as the head of the gang, who is responsible for the food of the whole flag. After marching, other soldiers stationed don't have to worry about food. A total of 57 people in total. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard Zhu Dashan say this: "I won't worry about being hungry wherever I go in the future." Zhu Dashan motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then said: "The two general flags are a team of 100 households, with one hundred households, one deputy hundred households, ten guards, five people each from 100 households and 100 deputy households, and a total of 126 people from 100 households. There is no official position above the 100 households for the time being, and it is under my direct command. I will also choose someone who can draw a bow and shoot arrows, and temporarily serve as a herald and take care of my bodyguard. I want to set up another heavy army, and the rest of the people will serve for the time being. After Zhu Dashan finished speaking, he saw that everyone understood and said: "The army must have a number, from today on, we will call it the Restoration Camp, and take the meaning of recovering the Ming Dynasty." Now I appoint the head of the 100-member team of 100 households as Gou Xingwang, the deputy 100 households Song Gaoju, the subordinate general flag officer Cheng Dequn, the deputy general flag officer Zhang Yongquan, the chief flag officer Sun Bin, and the deputy general flag Ma Rong. The 200-person team is 100 households long Zhou Dazhu, and the deputy 100 households are Cheng Deyi. Subordinate General Banner Ma Yuanjie, Deputy Chief Flag Luo Daniu, General Flag Jiang Chao, Deputy Chief Flag Kong Lingying, and then the small flag will be arranged by yourself."

This Sun Bin, Luo Daniu, Ma Rong, and Ma Yuanjie were all displaced people who were resettled years ago, and they responded to Zhu Dashan when they were in school, and they also killed the errand soldiers on the school field. So this time, Zhu Dashan promoted them all. Jiang Chao and Kong Lingying are locals, and yesterday they saw Zhu Dashan and others kill the county order, and took the initiative to take refuge. And when the two of them fought with the Qing soldiers last night, their performances were outstanding. Zhu Dashan also asked them to bring a general flag.

At this time, everyone digested what Zhu Dashan said, and agreed with Zhu Dashan's arrangement. It's just that Lin Zhuang was a little unhappy when he saw that Zhu Dashan hadn't named his name. Zhu Dashan didn't say anything when he looked at it.

Zhu Dashan saw that everyone was quiet again, and said: "Brother Lin Zhuang is from Orion, so it is up to you to choose the people who can draw bows and shoot arrows, and then you will lead them all." Originally, Lin Zhuangxian was still a little unhappy, but now when he heard Zhu Dashan's arrangement, his heart was suddenly relieved. Although he is not a hundred households, he doesn't even have an official position. But his appointment is equivalent to Zhu Dashan's guard captain, seeing that everyone has to be one level bigger, and if there are more soldiers in the future, he is directly another hundred households. So Lin Zhuang readily agreed.

Zhu Dashan said again: "The baggage soldiers are temporarily led by Wang Lao. Well, if there is no problem, when everyone goes out, all the people will be gathered, and the soldiers stationed at the various city gates will still be led by themselves, and the insufficient personnel will be replenished later. After everyone chooses their own soldiers and finishes the meal, each general flag will arrange their own meals. Grain and grass are needed to be collected from the Yellow Officials every day. We started training in the afternoon, we didn't have much time. After saying this, let Old Man Wang take someone to cook first, and tell him to wait for the heavy soldiers to stay in the county government first. Then let everyone choose the soldiers first.

At this time, Zhang Yongquan asked softly: "How to determine the military salary?" When the others heard Zhang Yongquan's question, they were stunned for a moment and then looked at Zhu Dashan. Zhu Dashan has also considered the issue of military salaries, but now he has no money and no solution to it. Now that Zhang Yongquan came to ask, Zhu Dashan wanted to come down and said: "There is no military salary now, let's wait until we really lay down a place!" Now even if the military salary is paid, there is no life to spend. When everyone thought about it, they also felt that they didn't say anything, and they separated.

Zhu Dashan came to find Huang Boyuan again and told him that he was asked to manage the grain and grass, and Huang Boyuan agreed without saying anything. Then he asked Hu Jijiang to count the money, grain and grass that could be used. Zhu Dashan was about to leave but was stopped by Huang Boyuan and said, "What do you do with those Qing soldiers and Qin Mission's honor guards?" When are you going to dispose of it? ”

Zhu Dashan said: "I'm trying to deal with it, why don't you go with me?" Huang Boyuan thought about it for a while, and saw that he couldn't recruit soldiers now. said: "Okay, I'll go with you, if one of those people can't handle it well, it's a disaster." Saying that, he beckoned the twenty people who were recruiting soldiers here to pack up their things, and then took the people to the county jail with Zhu Dashan.
