Chapter 638: A Simple Person
The day rat standing on the bank of the Yangtze River estuary with his hands tied, did not know that a scene deeply remembered by the long river of history was born at his feet.
Shanghai. Since the day it was built, it has had an extraordinary position on China's economic map. Its rapid rise and economic prosperity have far surpassed the prosperous places of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou and other places since ancient times. In the future China, it will be a shining pearl.
And Bai Sheng is a branch of the Shanghai-Hong Kong siege - the general person in charge of the Wusonggang embankment siege, he has been busy for several days, and today he finally got free, so he also rushed to the construction site to inspect.
At this moment, he commanded the envoy to keep his eyes wide on his labor team.
Some of these people were prisoners of war, some were local soldiers of the Western Army, and some criminals were recruited from all over the country, including the wealthy gentry who had been liquidated. Among the latter, many of them were executed, but many of them were sent to prisons in various places without committing their crimes to death, and the crime of dying with death could not be spared for the crime of living and could not be forgiven.
There are Jiangnan people, Huainan people, Qilu people, and Central Plains people. There are high and low statuses, and the punishment is light and severe.
The latter are already far outnumbered prisoners of war. In fact, the current Song army has been obedient, and they surrendered when they saw that the situation was not good, and they rarely had the strength of loyalty to the old Zhao family.
However, the origins of the prisoners have changed, but the rules of the camps cannot be changed. How the prisoners of war were sent in the past, and how they are still used now.
There is no dispute.
There is no one who cannot be reformed by labor reform, and if there is, let him work and reform again.
The labor camp is based on Lu Qi's structure, with 500 people as a battalion, with one battalion commander, one deputy commander, and one instructor. It consists of five teams, a team of 100 people, one head and one director. The first battalion was supervised by an additional twenty soldiers. Most of the officers who served as commanders were veterans, and a few were lightly disabled soldiers. For example, missing an ear, breaking half of a palm, or even losing an arm, and so on.
There is no obstacle to movement, good health, and the mind is not confused.
Above this battalion is a regiment, and a regiment is subordinate to five to ten battalions, and the commander is the commander of the regiment. The regiment is above the army, the fifth regiment is an army, and the commander is the commander of the army.
Bai Sheng is now the commander of the 18th Army, but ah, there are only six battalions under his command now, and he is not yet full. Just upgraded from the 2nd Regiment of the 3rd Army as a whole.
The 18th Army is one of the many construction armies of Shanghai and Hong Kong. In the future, more and more new legions and more prisoners will be concentrated here.
Bai Sheng was originally in the salt industry system, and he followed Chao Gai to sell illicit salt in his early years, and the friendship between him and Chao Gai was established at that time. But he didn't know a few big words, and he couldn't count them. In the early years, it was okay, but when the salt industry department became more and more extensive, and Bai Sheng's future was really bleak.
No matter how mixed it is in the salt industry, it will not be able to make a head. He was not up to the post of salt supervisor in a salt factory.
Chao Gai still has a vision, and he also misses the old feelings, so he directly asked someone to get Bai Sheng to his side, and asked Bai Sheng to follow him on the battlefield to make some credit, and then forced him to study for two years. Naturally, I don't have much academic knowledge, but I can write horizontally and vertically, and I will plan to calculate accounts, and I can write and calculate, so it is enough.
After that, people will be placed in the prison system. Relying on his earlier qualifications, Bai Sheng became the commander of a regiment as soon as he entered. After two years of hard work, he was promoted to the commander of the army, that is, after the establishment was stopped, even the deputy commander of the army and the military and political personnel were not yet equipped.
"Shichiro, come on." Bai Sheng walked around the construction site and was quite satisfied. The project is progressing well, and it can be seen that no one is lazy in these guys during the few days he is busy working outside. Zhou Qilang was one of Bai Sheng's several battalion commanders. He was seriously injured on the battlefield, and after his injuries improved, he was also disabled, and his arms and legs were gone, so he had to be discharged from the army.
This person has been in the army for many years, and he is used to the days of orders and prohibitions, and when he returns home, he is fine at first, but after three or four months, he is not well, and he is idle. He is less than thirty years old, how can he stand the days when he is fed like a waste? The latter entered the "engineering troops".
As a battalion deputy commander in the army, he was promoted to one level in the labor camp.
Bai Sheng is very optimistic about him. Among the battalion commanders under Gai Yin, the military smell on Zhou Qilang was the strongest. faintly satisfied the dirty thoughts in Bai Sheng's heart that had been nested for a long time.
He also wants to join the army. How can an idler like him not yearn for the style of responding to every call and running rampant on the battlefield?
Wu's Chao Gai knows him too well, his martial arts are not successful, and he fought in the early years, and Chao Gai himself always wanted to charge into battle with a big sword, and he won that ability in vain, and ten was not enough to fold on the battlefield. Didn't Chao Yi just fold at the beginning?
Bai Sheng is also self-aware, knowing that Chao Gai is doing this for his good. But after all, it was a thought in my heart, how many times I dreamed that I was dressed in bright armor, riding a high-headed horse, dancing a big sword, leading thousands of troops and horses, charging into battle.
If so, he especially looks at Zhou Qilang. Seeing him has the feeling of seeing an officer, and there is also a strange sense of satisfaction in dispatching him.
This labor camp is not an army after all, and those soldiers who are deployed are all military personnel at the beginning, but the more time passes, the more similar they become to being an official. Zhou Qilang is an exception. Bai Sheng glanced at him like this.
It has been more than a month since their battalion arrived in Yuezhou, and the five teams under their command were all prisoners of war when they first arrived, and they were slowly transferred out and in.
After a month of running-in, the work efficiency of the labor team under Zhou Qilang has finally recovered. Because Zhou Qilang has always practiced in accordance with the army's set of straightforward exercises, the basic workload is demarcated every day, and if it is not completed, the light ones will reduce their meals, and the heavy ones will not only not eat, but they will also be punished. There is a reward for overcompletion.
It's simple, brutal, and powerful. So much so that the men and horses under his command, regardless of whether they were prisoners of war earlier or mixed later, were all as obedient as rabbits after eating badly.
Naturally, there are work rules in the labor camps, but the personality of the chief is different, and the way and results of many things are also different. If the task is not completed in the horizontal and vertical time, it is the disaster of the official. I don't care about it. Its work rules are generally based on the concept of "more work, more reward".
Seeing Bai Sheng calling, Zhou Qilang hurried over. "In my absence, the work is progressing well. Brother rewards you with a reward or two. "Bai Shengbu was promoted to the army, and the original deputy commander of the regiment and the regimental government were not so lucky to follow the victory. At the moment, they are not in Yuezhou. Bai Sheng asked Zhou Qilang to go back immediately and tidy up, and go to Baoshan County with him.
The latter is a newly built county, the city wall has not been repaired, and the county government has not been built. In the entire county, there is not even a town. The most prosperous place is Shanghai, and the number of residents is less than 1,000, and there is no one.
But this is the general headquarters of Shanghai-Hong Kong construction.
Of course, Zhou Qilang was happy to be promoted, and even thanked Bai Sheng.
Bai Sheng is no longer a regimental commander, but a military commander. There are as many as five regiments under his command alone.
The guidance, teaching, and government at all levels are all sent by the Propaganda Department, and they are under the vertical management of the latter. Leave them alone, but there are still a lot of empty places.
The sun shone on the Yangtze River estuary, the shadows of Bai Sheng and Zhou Qilang were stretched very long, the blue sky, trees, grass, river, breeze blowing, everything seemed so beautiful.
Just like Bai Sheng's mood at this time. Sometimes, he's just that simple as that......
There is no big revenge, occasional daydreaming, and contentment in another sense. The only regret is that except for Zhang Jun, who saw Zhang Jun in his early years, he has never found another Zhang Jun for so many years. (https:)
