Chapter 136: Rivalry (5)
"Master, we have gained a lot today." The old servant beside him said behind him. Today another merchant is bankrupt, 1,000 acres of arable land, five shops, two courtyards have spit out, since it is bankrupt, the natural price is lower than the market price, anonymous waving banknotes, oh no, silver continues to conquer the city, alive turned the Yunnan city into a rich man's chessboard, on this chessboard constantly to conquer the city.
"It's okay, wait to kill the Liu family, their family is only big in oil." The anonymous Liu family is Liu Jun, after a few months of business wars, the Liu family's cash flow is almost exhausted--- which is known through the eyeliner in the pawnshop. In the past few days, the Liu family has begun to try to come out as some antiques, antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, and after being an antique, it seems that it is the Liu family's various industries. This family has more than 4,000 acres of cultivated land alone, not to mention the others, and they are poorer than the Mo family.
For these industries that came from the bottom at a low price, the anonymous only took the shops and donated all the arable land. Seeing the violent land reform near Ava, Anonymous knew very well that land was meaningless under the rule of the imperial court, and perhaps it was only a matter of time before the land reform in the hands of the landlords was carried out. What's more, the figure of land rent would have been pitiful! In Yunnan, one acre of land can get a penny of silver rent at most, and it seems that a lot of 10,000 mu is just an income of 1,000 taels a year, and the feedback brought by power is more than 1,000 taels?
Just thinking about how to play big chess in the future, a guy came over and said that the Liu family had begun to be a deed. Anonymous clapped his hands excitedly, "Let's go, let's see." ”
Zhongxing Prefecture.
Two new corps and one old corps were stationed in the city, together with more than five hundred men. It is a very small place where the old army and the new army are mixed. Now is the time for the old army to be restructured and the new army to be insufficient, but this city is extremely important, no wonder the two armies are put together!
Of course, the priority here is still very clear, the Zhongxing garrison is held by the deputy battalion commander in charge of the two companies of the new army, and the deputy garrison is held by the general commander. In terms of troop arrangement, the old army was also often used as a security force.
After the siege of Hanlong County, a fierce argument broke out between the two garrisons over whether they should rescue Hanlong County.
"Deputy Yang is guarded, the county seat of Hanlong is outside the Hanlong Pass, as long as the county seat of Hanlong is held, the rebels will not be able to enter the Hanlong Pass. If you can't enter Hanlong Pass, Zhongxingzhou City can be preserved. Zhao Jingfan, who was newly promoted to garrison, said. Many units and factories in ZTE are now outside the city walls, and as long as the rebels come over, it will be a catastrophe. He knew very well that if all these bottles and cans were broken, the military department would definitely not spare him.
"The urgent report that came over yesterday said that there are at least 2,000 rebels, and your new army is full of flintlock guns, but you don't have back pain when you stand, what about us? What's more, we are scattered all over the state, and it takes two days to be recruited, how can we rescue? ”
"You can bring as much as you want, even if you bring 300 people to break up first. Keep the county seat of Hanlong for a few days, and reinforcements will come along the rail line. ”
"Then why don't you guard Tianma Pass (the pass from Zhongxing to Hanlong)?"
"According to the Lan equation, we can mobilize three hundred people, plus the three hundred people in Hanlong County, then we can exert the power equivalent to eight hundred."
Deputy Yang said in his heart, you kid read a few pamphlets and come to drop my bookbag, aren't you also a big boss? With a snort, he turned his head and ignored him.
"Since Deputy Garrison Yang is still unwilling, then I have to give an order, you can send someone to report your opinion to your superiors now!"
"Report is report, huh!" Deputy Garrison Yang thought to himself that if a war-fighting person really reads, he will just curry favor with the emperor or pretend to be a "Confucian general", is the garrison adult stupid to read? It just so happens that if you fail, you can still get away with it.
Deputy Garrison Yang had the mentality of watching jokes, while Zhao Jingfan and Zhao Garrison planned to step on the shoulders of this deputy, and both of them felt that they were flying dragons and riding faces, how could they lose?
……
In the Palace of Restoration of Vision, Zhu Youlang summoned Bai Wenxuan, who had been bedridden for a long time. Perhaps due to historical changes, Bai Wenxuan fell ill before Mopan Mountain, and it took more than a year to get better. Bai Wenxuan, who has been bedridden for a long time, may have been suffocated, and he looks radiant.
"I just received the news that there are a few little praying mantis in Yunnan. Please ask King Gongchang to clean it up. Zhu Youlang said, and asked Xiao Huangmen to deliver the urgent report he received.
Bai Wenxuan opened it and saw that it was an urgent report sent five days ago.
"I see."
"There's also a staff plan from the General Staff here."
Although Bai Wenxuan was lying at home, he also knew what the General Staff was, so he picked up this plan and looked at it carefully.
The internal officials around him felt that Bai Wenxuan didn't know anything, so he was standing here wasting the emperor's time, but the emperor didn't look impatient at all. It can be said that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, this General Staff is very powerful, and the minister thinks that he has two brushes to lead troops to fight, but the plan formulated by this General Staff is much better than the staff around him, and some aspects are even more refined."
"Then I will represent those hairy boys, thank King Gongchang for his praise." Zhu Youlang grinned. "Most of these staff officers have not been in the army for a year."
Hearing this, Bai Wenxuan's cold hairs stood on end, and he bid farewell to the emperor and went to the General Staff. He wanted to see what these people were capable of making such a good plan. After talking with Dou Mingwang for a while, and meeting with a few senior staff officers, I found that these people were all cultivated by "cramming education", each of them specialized in a small detail and frantically brushed the problem, and then a slightly better qualified one integrated it together, as for the actual combat, it was responsible for many generals who retired from the old army, and thousands of first-class officers were in charge, most of these people had fought for more than ten years, pursued stability, and were a little reluctant to go to the front line to fight, so let them exert their residual heat. It seems that this new system is barely strong.
"Your Majesty has seen thousands of miles, and I really can't meet Your Majesty's chances." Bai Wenxuan sighed, "But there are more than 2,000 people in this regiment, is it really a problem?" These toasts can levy at least 5,000 people, and if they can mobilize the nearby toasts to rebel together, it will be tens of thousands. Besides, the terrain here is really not conducive to the deployment of large troops. ”
"I also took this into account when it was finalized, so I made certain improvements to the weapons of the fourth regiment."
"Oh?"
"The twelve-pound guns carried by the artillery were removed and replaced with eight-barrel rocket launchers. This rocket can fly for miles, is simple to launch, light in weight, and although not as accurate as a cannon, it can win in numbers, and can turn the city into a sea of fire in siege battles. ”
After speaking, Dou Mingwang arranged for Bai Wenxuan to watch the rocket launch, and stuffed him with a note, asking him to send someone to get a new firecracker.
