Chapter 212 Layout (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The retreat season is just a point! "This is Virtue Politics! ”
That's right, this is indeed a virtuous policy, don't look at the amount of relief and exemption seems small, but Shi Huiji himself came out of the countryside, and he clearly knew that it was such a tax of twenty or thirty taels of silver, but many peasants had to borrow a loan shark, and finally embarked on the road of bankruptcy. (The fastest and most stable update, ReadTalk.com, N.)
And now reducing or exempting their arrears of taxes is definitely a moral policy, and then urging the taxes owed by large households has become a very popular project: "How can we do people like Mr. Lu Ping?" ”
Feng Sixian has worked for a few more days in the county governor, and he already has a proposition: "It is inevitable, but it is also unavoidable, Zhang Yuzao is looking forward to using this method to collect more than 100,000 stones of grain in the entire Taizhou capital!" ”
"Good!" Shi Weisi suddenly stopped his horse: "Let's go to Huangyan first, see how to cooperate well, and do this well!" ”
……
And with the passage of time, Liu Chang also issued one order after another.
What is not surprising is the establishment of the Nanxi Regiment, and now Huo Qiu has become the second commander of the entire Hong Army after Qu Jie, but his Nanxi battalion is only incorporated into two battalions, which is out of everyone's expectations.
The Nanxi Battalion was only subordinate to the old Nanxi Battalion and the newly established Niudao Battalion, and the Huang Taiyu Independent Battalion, which everyone thought was going to be incorporated into the Nanxi Regiment, was still under the direct command of Liu Chang and was responsible for the security of the three counties of Huang Taiyu.
As for the teaching battalion, the line "The teaching battalion has been moved to Linhai County and temporarily returned to the dispatch and command of the Nanxi Regiment" appeared in the official document for the first time, but Huo Qiu only had the command power over the teaching camp, but he had no personnel and financial rights, and the personnel and financial rights of the training battalion were still in Liu Chang's hands for the time being.
Although this result was unexpected by everyone, after careful consideration, everyone has guessed that the next goal is to develop in the direction of Ningbo.
In this case, it is very likely that the training battalion, which served as the institution for the education and management of recruits, will develop to Ningbo with Liu Chang, in which case the training battalion will be separated from the command of the Nanxi battalion at that time and will be reassigned to the dragon lance regiment, and the independent battalion will be reattached to the Nanxi regiment at that time.
Everyone has a lot of ideas about this personnel operation, but the most important thing now is to replenish the casualties in the Linhuang Campaign, and the units that have the opportunity to be expanded into four infantry companies should strive to make the newly expanded units form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
In parallel with training and education, small-scale security battles continued to occur, and given that the Dragon Lance Regiment was likely to move north to Ningbo around mid-June, a large number of troops were used in the security battles between Taiping and Huangyan and Linhai, and in some cases an infantry regiment was responsible for security operations throughout the county.
Under such circumstances, whether it was Huangyan, Taiping, Linhai or Yuhuan, the public security situation improved rapidly, and the rebellion was defeated at the first time, especially in Taiping, and now there is no small group of bandits and rout of more than ten people in the county, and the envoys who withdrew from Shi Huiji can move freely throughout the county.
The security situation in Huangyan and Linhai is slightly worse, but now an infantry platoon can complete all combat operations within the county border, the only worry is that Su Jingrong, who is lurking on the sea, can return to the mainland at any time, according to the news obtained by Feng Sixian and Zhang Yuzao, Su Jingrong has at least 500 brave men with combat effectiveness around him, and he also has contact with Buxing in Ningbo, and these two hostile forces may merge at any time.
On 19 May, at the urging of the people of Ninghai County, the main force of the Dragon Lance Regiment successfully defeated a part of the defeated Yong and the battalion soldiers who had plundered in Ninghai and occupied the county seat of Ninghai. …,
In the next period of time, because there is no main force of the Qing army in Taizhou, there are only a small number of green battalion routs, guest troops and regimental warriors with poor combat effectiveness, it is only a matter of time before they belong to the six counties in a short period of time.
……
Dachen Island.
"Hateful, hateful! What a failure! ”
Su Jingrong's face still had hatred on his face, he couldn't forget the scene when he fell short in Huangyan City, just a little bit, the person who had the last laugh was himself.
But the reality is cruel, according to the report he got from the land, Liu Chang has now captured Ninghai County, the army is pointing to Ningbo, and it is only a matter of time before all the six counties under Taiwan have fallen.
And he, Su Jingrong, the best man in Taizhou Mansion, was driven to this Dachen Mountain, and lived a life of worry and fear all day long.
"Brother, when will you go back to Linhai? The brothers already have a lot of complaints! ”
It was his brother Su Jinglan who said this: "Now everyone complains a lot!" ”
Running to such an island, it is no wonder that Su Jingrong's henchmen are a little complaining, not to mention that it is a little difficult to even eat and fresh water now.
Although Su Jingrong had made a lot of preparations, five or six hundred people poured in at once, and no matter how thorough the preparation was, it couldn't change the reality on the island.
After a hard life on the island, even Su Jinglan was nostalgic for the good old days, and he asked again: "Brother, when are we going to go back to Linhai!" ”
"What's the hurry, Duan Daotai will buy foreign guns and foreign cannons for us in Shanghai, as long as the foreign guns and foreign cannons arrive, we will kill them back!"
This is just an excuse made by Su Jingrong, but Duan Guangqing does have such a will.
The speed of the fall of Taizhou Mansion was unexpected by Duan Guangqing, not to mention that Taizhou had more than 10,000 brave soldiers, and what really caused major damage to the red thieves was the brave force led by Su Jingrong.
Therefore, he helped this Taiyong through Bu Xingyou's relationship, not to mention, and also raised to buy foreign guns and cannons for them, but now the rush to buy Baoshun has reached the most critical juncture, and Demons has offered extremely unreasonable sky-high prices again and again.
On the one hand, Duan Guangqing was ready to get five or six hundred thousand silver from the Feng family in Cixi, and on the other hand, he put all his energy on Baoshun Wheel, and it was difficult to buy a batch of usable foreign guns and foreign cannons for Su Jingrong in a short period of time.
And Su Jingrong's excuse was difficult to convince his younger brother, he immediately said: "When will it have to wait, now in this place, it's not even convenient to drink tea, our brothers are in Taizhou Mansion, when have you lived such a hard life!" ”
"Or when Liu Chang led the main force of the red thieves to leave Taizhou Mansion!" Su Jingrong said the second condition for killing back to Linhai: "Now the red thieves have thousands of capable soldiers in Taizhou Mansion, and we are so good at killing them, it is meat buns and dogs!" ”
As soon as he said this, Su Jinglan understood: "Then how long will you have to wait?" ”
"It won't be long!" Su Jingrong felt that she had seen through Liu Chang's plan: "Now the red thieves are fighting steadily, but they don't have so much time, at the latest in late June, the red thieves will either go north to Ningbo or west to Jinhua Mansion, then our opportunity will come!" ”
Late June? Su Jinglan felt that it would be a long time, it was only late May, and these brothers under him were already about to rebel, if they waited until late June, these brothers didn't know what they would be in a hurry.
"Can you advance ten days and half a month?"
But Su Jingrong did not hesitate: "If the red thief doesn't move, I won't move either, unless Duan Daotai can buy us foreign guns and cannons!" ”
……
"Su Jingrong is still the biggest threat our army is currently facing at sea!" Shi Tinglan stated this fact to the officers present on a military map of Taizhou Mansion: "But behind Su Jingrong is the Guangyong group headed by the Bu Xingyou brothers, who are entrenched in Ningbo Mansion and may appear in the rear of our army at any time. ”…,
The battalion immediately agreed with this judgment: "Bu Xingyou's combat effectiveness is not weak, his warships are equipped with Western artillery, although the caliber is small, but the number is extremely large, the total number reaches hundreds of guns, and their infantry is also equipped with firing guns, our battalion has fought with it, although it has annihilated one enemy, but also suffered a small loss!" ”
Strictly speaking, the battle of the training battalion was not as simple as suffering a small loss, Liu Chang learned afterwards that the casualties of Buxing Youbu were less than 30, and the casualties of the teaching battalion were close to 60.
Shi Tinglan continued: "We must be prepared to fight with the Bu Xing group on land, according to the information we have obtained from Ningbo Prefecture, due to the previous military exploits, Duan Guangqing and He Guiqing have rewarded Bu Xingyou and Bu Liang with brothers, allowing them to expand Guangyong in a big way, if we march to Ningbo, the enemy army we are most likely to encounter is the Bu brothers!" ”
Liu Chang continued: "In addition to the Bushi brothers, there may be a small number of regiments in Ningbo that have a certain combat effectiveness, but there are not many of them, the six battalions of Ningbo Fucheng and the Dinghai Division are very weak in combat effectiveness, and they are not the opponents of my dragon spear regiment. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Ziyun, who was known as one of the two clouds of Nanxi, asked a crucial question: "It should be quite certain to attack Ningbo with the Dragon Lance Regiment to the north, and fight the Bushi brothers, but Ningbo Mansion is different from ordinary state capitals!" ”
His vision is keenly in the entire Hong Army: "This is one of the five treaty ports along the coast of the country, and it is also a major tax area in Zhejiang Province, if our army attacks Ningbo, it will inevitably attract the elite brigade of the Qing Demon, such as the Jiangnan battalion will inevitably send a force of five or six thousand people south to reinforce Ningbo, and Jiangxi soldiers can also send thousands of troops to aid Zhejiang." ”
Lu Ziyun finally asked a key question: "More importantly, when we enter Ningbo, what will foreigners think?" ”
