Chapter 44 Direction of Training
Seeing that Shen Yang approved of this matter, Han Qian asked Fan Xicheng again: "I asked you to hire a few stone-burners, can you find suitable manpower?" ”
In order to isolate the source of infection, in addition to staying away from the infected water, the most important task is to dispose of human and animal feces and other dirt.
In particular, the 30,000 or 40,000 infected and hungry people gathered on the lake beach must have a large number of schistosomiasis larvae eggs in the excreted feces, which must be exterminated.
The cheapest and relatively reliable method that Han Qian could think of in the world after racking his brains was to dispose of it with quicklime.
Five or six hundred years ago, there were medical books that recorded that the lime obtained from the burning of Qingbai stone stove was used to cure sores and income, and it was also the cheapest and most convenient sanitize medicine in the world.
Although Han Qian checked some information on the ancient method of burning lime, they were all similar, but the paper was finally shallow, and he still had no bottom in his heart, so he instructed Fan Xicheng to hire a few craftsmen who could burn lime near the villa, thinking that this should be more reliable.
"I found five old craftsmen, and in the current situation in the villa, I paid three times the salary before I was willing to come. In the past two days, I have walked along the mountain, and I have preliminarily selected the inlet below the grange to build a kiln, and I am waiting for the young master to come over and set the degree. Fan Xicheng said.
"Mr. Shen, do you want to take a look?" Han Qian asked Shen Yang.
Shen Yang was originally good at learning from the world, and today he was fortunate to read "Epidemic Water Sparseness" and knew that lime was of great use.
The people who are infected with the epidemic and hungry are still unusable for the time being, and the officials of Cao Zuo are basically the people recommended by the Marquis of Xinchang, even if they are in place, but at this time, even the military government has not been established, and there will be chaos in the early stage, and there are too many things to do.
Shen Yang saw that Han Qian had already thought of building a kiln to burn lime, so it was naturally the best, and when the time came, the cost of the work would be calculated and purchased by the military government.
It has become a habit for hungry people to defecate in the open, and even if the domestic soldiers are driven out of the hungry people and forced to use the toilet in a concentrated manner, the 30,000 or 40,000 hungry people will produce a terrible amount of defecation every day.
The powerful don't have cheap jobs, let alone deal with filthy things such as defecation.
Han Qian knew that this was the most important link, and he must not be disgusted with filth, and it was better to build a kiln to burn lime sooner rather than later.
Before the villa can produce lime, it even needs to be purchased from other places at a high price to deal with emergencies.
Han Qian was about to accompany Shen Yang out to inspect the location of the lime kiln, when Zhang Qian and three burly lieutenants wearing military attache uniforms came over to ask to see Shen Yang.
Including a large area of lake and beach, Taowuji north of Chishan Lake, three or five miles in depth from north to south, twelve or three miles long from east to west, and a part of the mountains and rivers north of Taowuji, this time the whole was requisitioned as the cantonment military palace of the Longhuai Army.
In the Taowu Collection, like the Qiuhu Mountain Annex, the head of the family has a meritorious official status, so he can naturally be exempted; Tenant farmers who are employed to work on these farms can also choose to stay.
The other households were to be driven out and resettled in another place by Jiangcheng County, and the original farms and houses were requisitioned by the military government.
Li Zheng Zhang Qian, who was originally a big family in Taowuji, owned 2,000 acres of fertile land, although he was exempted and the land was not directly requisitioned, but his family's farm house was located below the Qiuhu Mountain Courtyard, and there were more infected and hungry people gathered around, which made him tremble.
Of course, Zhang Qian is a small Lizheng, and he has no ability to stop the Longque Army from setting up the cantonment military mansion in Taowuji, but he also has some connections in Jiangcheng County, so he can hand over the field house here and change another piece of land outside Taowuji.
However, abandoning the fertile farm house run by the Zhang family for three generations and going to other places to change a piece of wasteland to start from scratch, Zhang Qian was not reconciled, so he first moved the family to the county seat, and he took two domestic servants to stay and watch the situation.
When Fan Wucheng was shot by Zhao Wuji, Han Qian met with Zhang Qian, but there was no deeper contact, so he could only be regarded as a nodding acquaintance, and politely invited him into the hall to meet Shen Yang.
The three generals who came to see Shen Yang with Zhang Qian were the battalion commanders of Guo Liang, the Marquis of Duyu, who was dispatched by the Dragon Bird Army, and the two Dragon Bird Army.
After the First Battle of Runzhou, the Longque Army had only 500 disabled and weak soldiers who had not been dismantled.
In recent years, as the only remaining high-ranking general of the Dragon Bird Army, Guo Liang, Marquis of Duyu, although he was not implicated and held accountable after the First Battle of Runzhou, he has been forgotten in the corner by the imperial court. This pair of Guo Liang, who was only in his thirties at this time, established military merits when he was young, and received the post of Marquis of Duyu was the year of his meritorious service.
This time, Emperor Tianyou named Yang Yuanpu, Marquis of Linjiang, as the general of Longque, in charge of the Longque Army, and also set up a new military government to recruit the hungry people as soldiers, so that in the future, they can organize and train soldiers, and reorganize the Longque Army, Guo Liang also served as the Marquis of Duyu, and together with Li Zhihe, the eldest son of the Marquis of Xinchang, and the second son-in-law Chai Jian, he was one of the five generals under Yang Yuanpu, the Marquis of Linjiang, and Chen De, the deputy commander of the army.
However, Xinchang Hou Li Pu had no intention of using Guo Liang for the time being, not only kicked Guo Liang over to be responsible for the construction of the cantonment military government, but also picked out more than 400 of Guo Liang's previous men, leaving more than 100 old, weak, sick and disabled people to be kicked to Guo Liang to Taowuji.
Guo Liang was full of resentment, even if he didn't dare to disobey the order, but he brought his men and horses to Taowu to gather, and only built the Yuanmen fence wall on both wings of the cantonment camp and military government determined by the Ministry of War, and then divided his troops to guard the east and west exits of the lake beach on the north shore, and didn't care about anything else, let alone participate in the relief of the infected and hungry people.
Shen Yang, as a long history, although he did not add the commander of the camp, but no one else served as the captain of the camp, and Shen Yang was the highest person in charge of the camp military government.
Knowing that Shen Yang was coming, Guo Liang could only bring his two battalion commanders, who were also full of resentment after being kicked over, and rushed over to see.
Marquis Duyu is already a middle and senior general, and Kong Xirong's father, Kong Zhou, is the deputy commander of the Right Shenwu Army, and he is only one level higher than Marquis Duyu.
Han Qian had the heart to befriend Guo Liang, who was excluded by Xinchang Hou Li Pu, and politely gave up the seat next to Shen Yang to Guo Liang, but Guo Liang didn't look at Han Qian, but stood behind Han Qian and looked at the young Zhao Wuji a few times before talking to Shen Yang.
Looking at Guo Liang's arrogant appearance, Han Qian gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, thinking that this guy who had no eyesight at all deserved to sit on the cold bench for all these years!
Of course, Guo Liang could notice the young Zhao Wuji, and Han Qian was still very proud in his heart, although this young man always stood quietly in the corner, he was always like a cheetah squatting in the shadows to threaten people.
Fan Wucheng was originally a child of a soldier, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and after the death of his father and brother, he passed under Fan Xicheng's knees, and his skills are even better, better than Fan Dahei and Lin Haizheng.
When it comes to fighting alone, the thin Zhao Wuji is not Fan Wucheng's opponent for three or four, but in the small room, Fan Wucheng, who is bent on driving people away, was ruthlessly shot by Zhao Wuji with a bow and arrow, and the whole process made Lin Haizheng and Fan Dahei unbelievable.
Logically speaking, the narrower the space, the more difficult it is to kill the enemy with a bow and arrow.
Under Han Qian's strong pressure, Fan Dahei and Lin Haizheng did not dare to treat Zhao Wuji's life, and often studied together.
In a head-on confrontation, Zhao Wuji stood in front of Fan Dahei's sturdy body like a half-cut iron tower, which was still too thin, but let go of the restrictions on the scene, Fan Dahei had to join forces with Lin Haizheng and the two to prevent Zhao Wuji's dangerous and unexpected attack.
Zhao Wuji is not the kind of invincible warrior who charges into battle, but is born to be an assassin hiding in the shadows.
It's a pity that Fan Xicheng and the others are all soldiers who are used to fighting on the battlefield, and Zhao Wuji wants to improve himself from another direction, but they can't give good guidance.
Han Qian asked Zhao Wuji to follow him, learning his whimsical and unstructured miscellaneous studies, and usually mainly strengthening training in lurking, scouting, reconnaissance, and survival in the wild.
To become a qualified killer or assassin in the world, the requirements are definitely much higher than that of a general who charges forward on the battlefield.
As for the training of the children of the soldiers below, in addition to strengthening the physical foundation with basic fists, feet, knives and bows, Han Qian also paid more attention to cultivating their abilities in reconnaissance, scouting, and lurking.
Han Qian thought that one day, the historical trajectory could not be changed, and he unfortunately became the "anti-party" of Da Chu, and no matter how stupid he was at this time, he would not think of using fifty or sixty people to confront the pursuers head-on.
Strengthening the loyalty of these soldiers, training them to lurk and reconnoitre, and surviving in the wild, and finally protecting him from the mountains and forests and absconding from Dachu is the most important thing for Han Qian to do.
In the same way, this is still much more difficult than cultivating a military general who charges into battle, astronomy, geography, dialects, character customs, wild survival, first aid, and even the next three indiscriminate methods of stealing chickens and dogs.
However, in Fan Xicheng's opinion, Han Qian was just messing around.
It's just that after the completion of "Epidemic Water Sparse", the trust that Han Qian gained from his father Han Daoxun was not something that Fan Xicheng's family soldiers could overturn at all.
Therefore, Han Qian had the intention to do nonsense, and Fan Xicheng and others could only cooperate with the toss.
Of course, less than a month has passed, and it is impossible to see any immediate results, but it is not without benefits.
Forty children of family soldiers, thirteen of whom are real family children, Han Daoxun used to be loose in the past, these family children have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and they are also rough in pen and ink, strong and confident.
Although Han Qian forcibly suppressed these thirteen children during the training, selected the children of the hungry people to lead the teams, and punished them with whipping if they dared to resist, but in any case, the children of the hungry people had no confidence at the beginning, and the children of the family were full of dissatisfaction.
However, the resilience of the children of the hungry is much stronger than that of the children of the family.
Perhaps struggling under the strong pressure of survival all year round, these teenagers have not done less things to steal chickens and dogs, observe words and looks, and they are more adaptable in training subjects such as scouting, reconnaissance, and lurking, so they gradually do not have the initial shrinking.
Han Qian asked Fan Dahei and Lin Haizheng to take these teenagers to participate in the relief at the disposal of Shen Yang, and also took this opportunity to strengthen their adaptability and adaptability.
