Chapter 639: Shepherding
After Zhang Han finished speaking, Wang Yiji ordered to move forward, at this time Zhang Han came down from the school review platform, stood on the side of the road and greeted the soldiers with a smile, every soldier was full of energy, and felt Zhang Han's respect and attention to them, especially because of today's excellent performance, they could get rest and meals after going back, which made the soldiers feel even more happy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang Han stopped a recruit in the team of musketeers at the end of the team, this is a tall recruit, about the same height as Zhang Han, and he is also very strong, and even makes people feel a little blessed.
Zhang Han smiled: "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Qin Bosheng." The recruit was a musketeer, and according to the rules he was supposed to put the musket up and across his chest, but he still carried it cross-shoulder.
"According to your size," Zhang Han quipped about the recruit, "the ox is tall and the horse is big, and he should be a soldier." ”
Qin Bosheng said: "I also want to be a soldier, but I heard that I have played shotguns at home since I was a child, and I am allowed to shoot rabbits and pheasants. ”
"Oh, I see."
Zhang Han suddenly realized that the training of the firecrackers is easy to say, they can be released in one day, and they can be loaded freely in three or five days, but if they want to quickly reload on the tense battlefield, such as shooting and shooting targets in the phalanx during today's training, this is not a day or two of hard work, and there is no one or two months that cannot be practiced, and if you want to behave like today on the battlefield, you must not only train for a long time, but also experience several actual battles.
Therefore, those who have experience in shooting and releasing bird guns will definitely be directly organized in the fire gun team, and they will be cultivated as officers or sergeants, after all, Datong is not as good as the south, and there are not many people who can make guns and birds.
Zhang Han took the firearm on Qin Bosheng's back and felt it, this is a standard infantry gun, the latest product finalized last year, in less than two years, the Firearms Bureau has produced more than 5,000 guns, which is currently the best quality, and it has also widely begun to sharpen the casing to assemble the bayonet.
The musketeers who were rationed with bayonets were paid higher salaries, and training in white-knuckle combat was added, and was now only equipped with veterans, who were unlikely to be fitted.
Zhang Han pulled the hammer, the movement inside rang softly, he pulled the trigger, but he didn't pull it all of a sudden, and then added a little strength to his fingers, and the flint on the hammer fell, shooting a large spark in front of the medicine pool.
Qin Bosheng was startled, but the fire did not go off, Zhang Han smiled and said: "I have cleaned the medicine pool, remember to clean up the medicine pool filled in the next training, and the gun chamber must also be carefully cleaned." ”
Qin Bosheng's face flushed, and he hurriedly agreed.
Zhang Han said to Li Shenming and Sun Jingting: "The striking force is very large, and the reed is very thick, so the firing rate should be more than seventy...... It's embarrassing that the quality is basically the same, and Wang Debang is doing really well. "This kind of apocalypse one-year model smoothbore gun Zhang Han has tried many times, and the feeling of trying today is that the quality is still quite good, and the thousands of pieces made of the barrel have the same diameter, the pipe wall is the same, and the barrel is forged with fine iron, and it is really good to maintain such a quality, which shows the intentions of the steward, and the craftsmen who built the fire gun did not play tricks and dodge, of course, strict reward and punishment measures are the most important.
Zhang Han handed the gun back to Qin Bosheng and said with a smile: "Did you gain weight in the barracks with this figure?" ”
"Yes......" Qin Bosheng's face turned red again, and Zhang Han found that although this guy was big, he was estimated to be less than eighteen years old, and he was too easy to blush.
"Eat well in the army, it's normal for you to gain weight." Zhang Hanwen said: "Is the training still hard? ”
Qin Bosheng said: "It's a bit hard, but it's not to the point where you can't stand it, it's hard to farm at home, it's not necessarily hard to be a soldier, and so many people can be together every day, as long as you don't violate military discipline, you won't be scolded, let alone beaten, and the officials are not as big as the generals of the border army, they eat and live with us, and the military pay is rich, there is no better way to live than here." ”
"Train well and be brave when you go to battle." Zhang Han smiled, didn't say anything more, and waved his hand to let this red-faced guy go.
The sun has become a big red ball, Sun Jingting has to go back to the Military Orders Department on business, Li Shenming got in the car and went home for dinner, Zhang Han could have gone back, but he promised to go to see the situation in Omu Buhong, so he could only take Wu Qi and Zhou Rui and others to the Military Intelligence Bureau.
Halfway through the horse, when the compound of the Military Intelligence Department was in sight, Yang Qiu rushed over when he heard the news, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau was originally a horse face, but now his face is used to pulling every day, and it looks longer.
Zhang Han said casually: "Where is Omu Buhong?" ”
Yang Qiu said with some surprise: "It turns out that the adults came to see him today, this person is not locked up in the Military Intelligence Bureau, on the side of the livestock farm, we asked him to herd sheep." ”
Zhang Han said: "I asked you to give him some hardship, not to ask you to openly humiliate him, he is the eldest son of Tumut Khan, and he will be our important pawn in the future, you have humiliated him too much, and it will be difficult to ask him to cooperate in the future." ”
Yang Qiu said with a look of shame: "My subordinates didn't think clearly, this matter was messed up." ”
Zhang Han sighed: "Forget it, I haven't explained this matter clearly, now I hope that you will do this with a good effect, and you will be wrong." ”
Yang Qiu didn't dare to say anything, he accompanied Zhang Han to the ranch together.
And Yusheng in Lizhuang is almost no wasteland, there were originally some not very good plots, now all of them have become factory areas and dormitory areas, but in the southwest there are still some land that is not good to cultivate, the middle area is a hilly area, surrounded by grazing grassland, and Yusheng built a circle of livestock around, raising more than a thousand cultivated cattle, the calves that grew into them were handed over to the tenant farmers around Lizhuang to use, of course, it is not free, tenant farmers have to pay some price to rent, and the cattle are dead to compensate, If the big farm-style contracted cattle are used, Zhang Han feels that the tenant farmers will not have to worry about the use and raising, and it is better to use the current form.
In addition to cattle, there are mainly sheep, about 10,000 heads, the vegetation here is certainly not enough for sheep to eat, but it is not without a small supplement, there is some land around it is planted with alfalfa, and the military secretary will buy hay beaten by farmers, so as to maintain the size of the sheep here.
These sheep, as well as some chicken coops and pig pens, are all supplied with meat to the barracks in Lizhuang, and more recently, meat scraps to the cannery.
When Zhang Han arrived, the sun was slanting westward, and it was about to get dark.
Ombuhong was working in a pasture, and the weather was already warm, and the most noble of the Mongols, Taiji, was still wearing a tattered sheep's inner jacket, and was forking the hay with a fork rake in his hand, forking the stacks of hay into a huge haystack.
There were sheep all around, and another group of herdsmen was driving the sheep into the sheepfold.
Most of the sheep herders here are older farmers hired around, many of them have white hair, and their waists are bowed, and people mostly bring dogs as helpers, and when Zhang Han and his party approached, the sheepdogs barked together.
A few men who were obviously from the Military Intelligence Department turned around, first looking at this side with vigilant eyes, and when they saw that it was Zhang Han and Yang Qiu coming, everyone first showed joy on their faces, and then their expressions tightened.
A military intelligence officer brought Ombuhong over, and Ombuhong's face was also dirty, black and unsightly, with a long snot hanging under his nose, and his small eyes were full of nervousness.
"Why don't you hurry up and meet Master Zhang." The military intelligence officer who brought him over pushed the half-grown boy.
Zhang Han felt that the people under his command did not have a good impression of the Beiyu, even if it was the old and weak women and children, it was no wonder that the border like Datong had been fighting with the Beiyu for more than 200 years, and it was not too much for the two sides to say that there was a sea of blood and deep hatred.
After being pushed, Omu Buhong woke up suddenly, he fell to the ground suddenly, lay on the landlord and knocked a few times, and then crawled forward, grabbed the hem of Zhang Han's robe, and cried: "Uncle Zhang, spare me, my father Khan didn't mean to get along with Uncle Khan, it was Ah Cheng Taiji and Xi Lingse who instigated it." ”
The half-grown son in front of him was crying like something, Zhang Han also sighed with emotion, in this kind of apocalyptic world, whether it is a nobleman or a common man who has been passed down from generation to generation, once he makes a mistake and can't protect his family, his relatives will inevitably encounter such an unbearable situation.
In fact, Zhang Han is still good to Ombuhong, in history, the Tumut Department was first defeated by Lin Dan Khan, and a few years later, Ombujiang surrendered to the Manchu Qing of Huang Taiji at the instigation of his henchmen, but at that time Tumut had been defeated, Huang Taiji thought that he could not be compared with the Mongolian nobles who really belonged to him, only left a small amount of land and Taiji identity to Ombuhong, and strictly guarded it, and soon after, someone accused Ombuhong of rebellion, Huang Taiji immediately sent troops to escort the leader of Tumut to Shenyang, imprisoned, and abolished as a concubine, Not long after, Ombukhon "fell ill and died".
Looking at the Mongolian boy who was crying and choking in the past, Zhang Han looked back at Yang Qiu, this time it was really wrong, this kind of prisoner's situation and difficult living environment hit Xiao Taiji, who had never suffered before, as long as Zhang Han was gracious, it was estimated that there would be a very obedient agent on the grassland in the future.
"Get up." Zhang Han's face was impassive, and he said in a rather gentle tone: "It's good to know that mistakes can be corrected." Your father Khan did not die at my hands, but Acheng Taiji was assassinated and died, and you will know this when you return to the steppe. ”
The reason why Omu Buhong really stepped down was not only that he had suffered and suffered some humiliation, but the most important thing was that he knew that his father Khan had died, and he was the eldest son of the Great Khan, but he never thought that he would inherit the Khan throne at this age, and the infighting in the Tumut Department was so strong that all forces could not even handle the adult Great Khan of Bu Shitu Khan.
