Chapter 340: Wu Wei's Army (II)
In front of the general stage, hundreds of people from each battalion gathered all the generals above the level, and each looked at Li Yanzhi and was silent.
"Previously, Li had asked the envoy for approval, and from today onwards, I waited for the first army to change its name to 'Wu Wei'. I want to inform you this time. Since then, we are no longer the county soldiers of Lingju, but the subordinate army under the command of the captain of Huqiang! The meaning of 'Wu Wei' is to make the three armies practice hard, and the brave martial arts are like mountains, so that the enemy army cannot cross and is frightened! ”
He looked around at the general of Wu Wei who was present, and his tone was calm and calm: "The robes in the army, along the way, I don't know how many people have died on the battlefield and buried their bones in the green mountains. If we are fortunate enough to survive, we should live up to the will of the robe, but raise troops to march eastward and secure the country. Lieutenant General Zuo, now Hu and Han have both, but they should have the same desire and do their best. ”
"We are not the soldiers of the Gaomen family, and those who are loyal are none other than the king's industry, and those who do things are nothing more than the ears of the Ming Gong. Today's Ming Gong, the year of the weak crown is heroic and decisive, which is really unusual. The assets of the people in the city are fortunate to be favored by the Ming Gong and lead an army, which is already a distinction between right and wrong. If you are not faithful to the king, then heaven will not tolerate it. ”
After that, a guard next to Li Yanzhi himself held a big flag in his hand, which was the Wuwei military flag that had been made before. He held the banner high. Under the breeze, the word "Wu Wei" loomed on the flag. And this newly made military flag waved slightly along with the rest of the flags that were still standing in the battalion. The black flag brought a depressing atmosphere to many of the generals present.
"From this day forward, this flag is our military flag. I will stand on it in the Chinese army. Where the flag is, that's where I am! Wherever the banner goes, all armies must move forward with all their might. Words must be practiced, and every war comes first. If anyone dares to retreat first, they will be punished by military law! ”
"Wu Wei Wansheng!" Li Yanzhi stood under the military flag with a dark body and embroidered with white fonts, and raised it with all his might, shouting.
"Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng!" Dozens of generals below were also excited, and they raised their right hands and shouted. Although there were only a few dozen people, the sound kept coming far away.
Since Xin Yan was in the county government, he had already heard the roar from the direction of the barracks. He strolled out of the county government, and Wang Qiang, who was responsible for guarding the county government outside the door, saw this, so he immediately greeted him and waited by.
Xin Yan pricked up his ears, listened carefully to the sound of "Wansheng" from the direction of the barracks, and looked at Wang Qiang with a puzzled expression. Wang Qiang looked at Xin Yan, who was full of inquiry, and said: "Li Changshi is in the camp, summoning the generals to announce the change of army. Do you want to go to Mingfu to have a look? ”
Xin Yan listened to the chorus shouting, and his eyes showed a bit of yearning. After a moment of silence, he finally waved his hand and said, "No, no." Since then, although it has been stationed in Lingju, it is ultimately a subordinate army of the Qiang's Captain's Office. As a county magistrate, I obviously committed a taboo and was inappropriate to go to see it......"
Wang Qiang was silent and stepped aside. And Xin Yan sighed, and was about to turn around and go back to the county government. However, looking at the newly erected watchtowers at the four corners of the inner city not long ago, he stopped again.
Xin Yan walked in the direction of the watchtower in the northwest corner of the city. Seeing this, Wang Qiang summoned several capable subordinates and followed him closely. Xin Yan walked through the streets, but in about two quarters of an hour he climbed the watchtower. The crossbowmen of the Jianrui battalion stationed in the watchtower saw Xin Yan coming, and immediately cleaned up the army, and they didn't dare to take a breath of the atmosphere.
Xin Yan looked into the camp and saw the banner of the Wuwei Army fluttering fiercely in front of the general's platform. And the generals in the battalion have gathered their soldiers one after another. After a while, the battalions in the outer city were also brought one after another, and a neat phalanx was arranged on the camp and colonel's field.
The generals of each battalion successively reported to Li Yanzhi the presence and duty of his corporaries. The whole school was in awe. The soldiers who didn't know why looked at the blackened flag fluttering in front of the general. Li Yanzhi stood still under the banner and raised his hand to the military flag: "From today on, this army has been renamed Wuwei and belongs to the direct jurisdiction of the Huqiang Captain's Office, but it is still stationed in Lingju. You don't have to worry about separating from your parents. But since we belong to the Guardian Captain's Mansion, we must obey the requisition of the Mansion! ”
This was announced, but the sergeant on the field was still at a loss. Many people feel that belonging to the Guangwu County Mansion is basically the same as belonging to the Huqiang Lieutenant Mansion. At this time, Li Yanzhi stood under the newly formed military flag and solemnly announced this matter, which still made many soldiers understand in their hearts that this matter was not as indistinguishable as they thought.
Several guards of the battle front battalion marched in front of him carrying several military flags from the side, Li Yanzhi looked at the front of the army formation, and shouted: "Hundreds of people from each battalion will take a step forward and prepare to award the flag!" ”
The voice fell, and several generals were already on standby in front of the formations. When Li Yanzhi convened the generals to announce the change of banners, they already had a bottom in their hearts. This time, the county soldiers were assigned to the Captain of Huqiang, and their future was immediately promising.
Now there are four hundred generals in the battalion, namely Zhou Xing, the 100-person general of the Zhanfeng Battalion, Wang Cheng, Lei Rong, the 100-person general of the Jianrui Battalion, Wei Xu, the 100-person general of the Xinli Shooting Battalion, and Tao Heng, the 100-person general of the cavalry battalion. It was also reported to Zhang Zhijun for approval, and two thousand governors were promoted. One is Liu Jiwu, and the other is Cao Jian, who was promoted by Sima from other departments.
Liu Jiwu and Cao Jian were promoted, on the one hand, because Li Yanzhi missed the old, and on the other hand, with the ability of these two people, they were both qualified for the position of the governor of a thousand people. In this way, his control over this army is enough, and the two of them are also competing, at the beginning of the army, the drills, food, and ordnance are all done properly, and the generals below can't say anything.
Li Yanzhi took a military flag and unfolded it to see that the embroidered on the flag was the "Wuwei Cavalry Battalion". He looked at Tao Heng, who was walking slowly, and solemnly handed over the military flag to him.
Tao Heng took the flag and slowly retreated to the front of the cavalry battalion. Immediately, the battalions of Zhanfeng, Jianrui, and Shooting Sound also completed the awarding of flags. Li Yanzhi looked at the generals and said loudly: "My generation was born and died, not only diligent in royal affairs, but also for the parents and relatives behind him to earn peace and tranquility. I also hope that you will not forget the duty of our generation, defend the land and defend the enemy, and it is your duty! ”
"Long history teaching, we will remember!" Wei Xu, who was the last to take the flag and return to the team, took the military flag, clenched his fists and bowed his head, and said in a loud voice. Immediately, the hundreds of generals and soldiers on one side also clenched their fists and bowed down. Even the leader of the Di people, Lei Rong's department, also acted in unison. Obviously, after entering the camp, these usually casual Qiang warriors are now initially equipped with the basic qualities that military generals should have.
Wei Xu, who raised his head, looked at Li Yanzhi quietly, and there were faint tears of excitement in his eyes. At the beginning, Li Yanzhi broke through his participation in the resale of military rations, although he had the merit of cooperation, but at that time, Wei Xu also thought that he would only be in the camp silently in the future, staying until he was old or died in battle. As for today's situation, I can't even think about it.
I didn't think of things that I couldn't think of before, but now I really put them in front of me. Now Wu Wei has become an army and belongs to the captain of Huqiang. The situation of the generals in the future will only go further.
Xin Yan, who was standing on the watchtower, saw this scene, and also patted the railing and sighed: "Dingdong is really a general." The military heart can be used...... "At present, although the scale of the Wuwei army is not large, there are only more than 2,000 soldiers. However, looking at the demeanor of the lieutenant general of the battalion, Xin Yan has firmly believed that this army is indeed not limited to one place.
The banner of the Wu Wei army was planted at the four gates of Lingju County, and Li Yanzhi went out of the camp to look at the military flags flying above the four gates, firmly believing that this was just the beginning.
Walking down the watchtower and on the way back to the county government, Xin Yan saw Li Yanzhi who was watching the four gates on the camp wall. He slowly walked to the bottom of the camp wall and called, "Dingdong! ”
Li Yanzhi looked down when he heard the voice, and when he saw Xin Yan, he immediately smiled all over his face, and quickly ran down the camp wall, and then walked out of the gate, shook Xin Yan's hand, and said: "Fuliang, now that the matter in the camp has been preliminarily decided, I still have some things that I want to entrust to you." ”
Xin Yan looked surprised: "Since that's the case, why didn't Dingdong say it earlier?" After that, Xin Yan pointed in the direction of the county government: "Go, Dingdong, go back to the county government and sit and drink, and speak slowly." ”
The two walked all the way to the county government, and Xin Yan ordered two servants to hurriedly prepare some buttermilk pastries and the like, and set a table in the inner hall. The two of them sat down at the ends of a table, picked up the glasses, and drank from each other.
"When I was conquering the Western Regions before, I had a discussion with the generals on the left and right, and after returning to the county government, I would raise some money and goods by myself, open a school in the county, and collect the gifts of the orphans of the loyal martyrs to go to school. Some time ago, there were many affairs in the army, and there was no time to take care of them. Now that all things have been decided, he remembers this incident again. However, recently, it has been rumored that the envoy is recruiting troops and preparing to enter Longxi, and he must still be unable to pull away......"
Before Li Yanzhi's words fell, Xin Yan had already laughed: "What Dingdong discussed is a good thing!" Why now? The orphans of the loyal martyrs are reasonable, and the county government should take care of them, but the treasury is still not rich, so it has been repeatedly shelved. I also wanted to raise funds to build a school or two for the children of the martyrs to go to school. But in his heart, he was always afraid, for fear of trespassing, so he never mentioned it. Since Dingdong also has this intention, Yan can rest assured that he will do ......"
When Li Yanzhi heard what Xin Yan said, he immediately smiled: "Over the years, Ji has bought and sold cattle, sheep and saddles with Fuliang, in addition to filling public funds and various needs in the army, there are also hundreds of thousands of dollars. Now you might as well hand over all this wealth to Fuliang, and hope that Fuliang will promote this matter as soon as possible. As soon as the expenses are spent, Wang Qiang can be asked to make an account, wait for Rong Ma to be stunned, and then come back to take a look. ”
Xin Yan smiled: "It's easy to say." Dingdong was in charge of military affairs, so he went with confidence. If Yan can't facilitate this, he will be questioned by Dingdong. ”
Li Yanzhi nodded, then picked up the wine glass, drank all the wine in the cup, then looked up at Xin Yan, and asked, "Now that there is a shortage of books, is there a magic method for Fuliang?" ”
Li Yanzhi asked, but Xin Yan was really stunned. He frowned and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Nowadays, most books are copied by hand. And the paper and paper are parallel. Yan thought that he could only give the book to Mr. and let Mr. tell the story. Children can listen to the book and ......"
Li Yanzhi casually took a thread-bound book from a few cases on the side, flipped through it, and asked, "If Fu Liang copies such a book by hand, how long will it take?" ”
Xin Yan hesitated for a moment, then looked at the thickness of the book, and hesitated: "If the affairs are not busy, it may be more than ten days." The affairs are busy, and the full-term may not be able to copy a book. ”
Li Yanzhi laughed and said, "That's true! However, I have a wonderful method, I don't know if Fu Liang is willing to give it a try? ”
When Xin Yan heard this, his face turned different, and he asked curiously, "What kind of magic method?" I had only heard of copying a book before, and it took years. Since Dingdong talked about the wonderful method, he naturally wanted to give it a try. ”
Li Yanzhi laughed, picked up a chopstick next to him, put the chopsticks in the center of several cases upwards, and asked Xin Yan: "Fu Liang thinks, if I engrave words at the end of these chopsticks, brush with ink, and take a piece of paper to cover it." If you press it again, will the words engraved on the chopsticks be printed on the paper? ”
Xin Yan looked at the chopsticks, thought for a long time, and still looked at Li Yanzhi with a suspicious expression: "Don't say that a book, even if there are hundreds of words on a page. How is this handled? ”
Li Yanzhi laughed, and then called a waiter outside the hall and asked him to bring a pair of chopsticks up. Li Yanzhi held the chopsticks in his hand, and then arranged them to arrange them. Li Yanzhi asked Xin Yan with a smile again: "Fuliang and look, what is it like like this?" ”
Xin Yanden suddenly realized: "Didn't Dingdong Mo say that these words are arranged and then packed in a laughing wooden frame on the paper of the book, and then brushed with ink and pressed, and a page of the book can be printed?" If there are a large number of these blocks, arranged into the required blocks for each page, a large number of books can be printed? ”
Xin Yan drew inferences from one another, and he figured out the wonderful use of this printing technique, which also made Li Yanzhi feel gratified. He smiled and said: "Fu Liang knows the subtlety, and he is very human. In this way, when the children of the martyrs go to the school, everyone can present books. However, this method is only a superficial view after all, and there is still a lot of support for how to do it. ”
"However, when this character block is engraved, it needs to be engraved into the reverse word!" Li Yanzhi said, then took out a chopstick and dipped it in some wine, and wrote down the word "Li" in the blank space of several cases. Said: "In this way, the printed word is the orthography!" ”
Seeing this, Xin Yan nodded again and again, and then asked, "In this case, what kind of material should the characters used in this printing book be made of?" ”
Li Yanzhi looked at the reverse "Li" on the table, thought for a moment, and said: "You can use wood, you can use clay to fire, you can also use lead, copper, etc." Among them, the cost of clay firing is quite low, and the time limit for use is acceptable. Wood is used for the shortest time. Lead, copper, etc. can be used for the longest time, but it also costs the most. If it is implemented, please make your own decision. ”
"Good, good!" Xin Yan smiled and picked up the bamboo chopsticks in his hand and threw a chopstick dish into his mouth: "If you have this wonderful method, why don't you worry about the school?" Dingdong is relieved, and Yan will vigorously supervise this matter to comfort the souls of all loyal martyrs in the sky! ”
"There is a support beam!" Li Yanzhi picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all: "Later, I will send the accumulated assets to the county government, and Fuliang will do this, and the spirits of the martyrs and the martyrs are all grateful......"
