Chapter Seventy-Eight: Smell Again

Thanks to the branch of the Pearl River, the development and maturity of the water transport of the Longchuan River, each step of the voyage can be said to be precisely calculated, although most of them are local regular customers, but it is still arranged tightly and leisurely, which will not make people feel tired of watching the flowers, nor will it make people feel that they have lost the shipping schedule slowly.

In this way, it will only take three to four days to go down the river to Guangfu.

Blowing the river breeze of Xi Xi, I was reading a few pamphlets, and after expressing some kind of hospital that was interested in the army, I was very tolerant of semi-public prints such as the rules and instructions issued by the Southeast Recruitment Department to the junior non-commissioned officers.

From this, we can also deduce the military preparation of the Southern Dynasties by combining the existing memories and impressions.

The military system of the Southern Dynasties was not as chaotic and uncertain as it was in the north, so it basically followed the defense area system of the army, city, town, and garrison since the early Tang Dynasty, and the basic establishment of battalions, regiments, teams, fires, and tens, but the specific positions and titles have changed, such as the brigade commander has become the head of the capital, and the general has been replaced by the commander, and the senior military attachés such as the commander and the general have remained the same as the old system.

10 members and 9 members, with 10 chiefs leading 8 people; Infantry and crossbow teams are fifty and one fire, and the horse army is thirty and one fire, plus drummers, fire assistants, and auxiliaries; to the head of fire; The three fires are organized into a team, and the team is the leader; The two teams were formed into a regiment with a fire, led by the captain; Four regiments of the large battalion, three regiments of the middle battalion, and two regiments and two teams of the small battalion, led by Captain Zhichong or Guoyi,

The battalion is the most basic military unit of the Southern Dynasties.

At the same time, it inherited some of the achievements of Taixing's reform, and below the regimental officer, there were three assistants and one material, that is, the deputy lieutenant who was in charge of the flag and the commander alternate, the military constitution who was in charge of military law and discipline, the battalion staff who supervised the daily training, the battalion staff of one to several people who planned the account during the war, and the material officer who was in charge of the maintenance of ordnance in and out.

At the same time, the ranks are separated, and the subordinate and subordinate in peacetime are subject to the ministry, and the status and rank in wartime are supplemented by military ranks, and then supplemented by knighthood, titles, and loose officials, constituting a complex set of military orders and class systems.

Like the wind wind, the military rank is the lieutenant of the light car, and the ministry is only a subordinate waiter, so it can be reluctantly called a wind captain.

The establishment and types above the battalion level are much more flexible, and they can be composed of reserve and basic units at the military level, as well as standing guards and armies, and there are also state and county soldiers in between, guarding the localities, plus the feudal lords who are recruited and conscripted according to their needs, forming a system or not forming a part-time feudal army, and regimental training, it can be said that there are many and miscellaneous sources.

Therefore, in the direction of facing the enemy or preparing for a strategy, it is common to set up a separate system and a strategic envoy at or above the level of the local military envoy or defense envoy, and go to a certain road to manage the large and small theaters of war and unify the needs of these armed forces.

Therefore, the scale of the standing and reserve forces of the Southern Dynasties was not small, but it could not be fully invested in the Northern Expedition, on the one hand, it was the upper limit of the scale of logistics transportation, on the other hand, a large number of garrisons were needed to maintain the control of the vast overseas domains, and at the same time, it was necessary to invest equally important naval divisions and naval battalions to maintain and ensure the economic arteries and shipping routes between the major overseas territories.

With a large number of overseas domains, population, and property, this was a double-edged sword for the Southern Dynasty, and it could only be a long-term and persistent strategy by infiltrating and invading the water grinding work.

And with these brochures.

There is also a large stack of old manuscripts collected along the way, as a cushion paper used to practice calligraphy in the old bookstore, a bundle of only fifty texts, but I have cut them all over the place. Removing the meaningless official terms and superficial official articles, from these newspaper-like things, it is still a collection of major events and corresponding timelines that have occurred in the Southern Dynasties over the years.

In addition to all kinds of chasing after the wind and the speculation of the so-called people in the industry, on the transcripts over the years, some important political news and personnel transfers will also be actively published, such as the chief officer of the five-way recruitment department, except for the Xishu recruitment department that has not been moved for more than 20 years, the other four roads have been replaced one after another in the past ten years.

As the latest governor of Ning, that is, the husband of Mrs. Chen, he was appointed in the second year of Taiping, and spent five or six years to accumulate the Gu Tunjia, master the rule, tame the periphery, and regain a strong offensive and became known to the world, and then there was no movement for several years.

It is now the seventh year of Baoying of the Southern Dynasty, that is, in 1964 of the Republican calendar, and I seem to have been touched in my heart.

Could it be that in fact, the Southern Dynasty deliberately broke the status quo and made great achievements in various roads, as the cooperation of the husband and wife, Mrs. Chen will become the target of public criticism on the Southeast Road.

For example, it offends those vested interests who benefit from maintaining the status quo for a long time.

It's a pity that this speculation has no clue about the value and layout of my future development and layout.

I could hear the sound of sails falling overhead, and the slight tremor of the ship turning and slowing down, it seemed that it was time to dock again, this time we stopped at Zhenyang, a prosperous city along the Dongjiang River, and the second largest city in Longchuan Province, one of the seven roads in Lingnan.

As an inland hinterland that has not been heard of for a long time, there is only a symbolic earth-covered city wall, which is outrageously low compared to the scale of the city itself, and it is also occupied by all kinds of illegal buildings such as houses and shops built against the wall, and even the dung left by livestock on the wall is full of a certain peaceful and defenseless life.

I got off the boat as usual, and went to buy supplies with the two servants sent to me by the wind, and by the way, I wandered around and watched the wind, and bought a lot of fruits and snacks in the street market aimlessly, and after waiting for the mess, I suddenly saw a familiar sign in the depths of a small street,

Kodansha? ,

When I saw this name, I had mixed feelings and didn't know what to say, because I finally came across something that was closely related to my predecessor.

This Kodansha is a gathering salon of well-known literature and history lovers in some local circles in Guangfu, and it has been preserved for a long time, and it can be regarded as a branch of the two schools of Beijing and the two schools, and at the beginning of the establishment of the Guangfu University Hall, there have been ashes of zài.

It's just that the daily operation depends on the spontaneous donations and self-help of the members, because of the loose organization and extensive management, all kinds of poor management, and closed the door for a period of time at every turn, until my predecessor was regarded as a kind of Kaizi, after taking over and investing, I found a certain opportunity, and then became a kind of professional group that discovered the truth in the vast sea of history.

Of course, the truth is relative.,For example, according to a contradictory record.,Extrapolate a variety of new possibilities or something.,Therefore, Kodansha.,It's also a business similar to intelligence trafficking, analysis and deconstruction.,Get daily maintenance expenses and even profits.,Of course, this information is not immediate.,It's the past tense filtered out of the historical materials left over the years.,

Because of the relative stability of the Southern Dynasty and the Lingwai for hundreds of years before, a large number of documents and historical records have been preserved, coupled with the cultural and academic inheritance of the North brought by the Nantou people.

In most cases, for a small fee, you can find what you want from public libraries and open public and private collections, and the limit of this price is only to prevent some deliberate troubleshooting.

Although it may be worthless in the military and political affairs, these social and humanistic ones are quite useful in the civilian field, such as the commercial activities related to people's livelihood, or the operation of foreign territories, and a summary of the analysis of climate and hydrology in a certain place is still quite marketable.

Therefore, it does not offend the sensitive nerves of those in power. At the same time, a large number of students, as well as lecturers and teachers, are hired to complete a part of a certain study and research project in the name of work-study, with the help of their majors and positions, environment and background, so it is a bit more open to people.

In this era, although the wealthy and powerful also have the natural instinct to monopolize knowledge, under the popularization of education and the existence of schools everywhere, they naturally receive impact and resistance.

This is also one of the few legacies that Liang Gong, the predecessor of the traverser, can leave behind, because the ruling shogunate of the Southern Dynasty also relied on these vocational schools to provide grass-roots personnel to supplement them to check and balance the existence of the opposition forces outside the domain and the wealthy nobles.

I can also use these peripheral businesses as a cover to cultivate core backbones and do some private work or something, such as sponsoring and supporting some potential poor students, and then they can develop into candidates for my private team. This is also one of the capital of my comeback after I arrived in Guangfu.

Eventually, Kodansha grew to the point where it had a large number of ordinary members who came and went freely, working and studying. Senior members who regularly hold activities and exchanges, have a number of fixed places, take interests and hobbies as the link, and conduct group classification research; and a small number of key members and management who are involved in the day-to-day operation of the organization.

It has even developed a group of honorary members and regular sponsors with backgrounds. Then things inevitably got out of my control, because the children of some powerful people joined in on a whim, fashion, or other reasons, which naturally alarmed some of the upper class bigwigs.

My predecessor was also concerned by the legendary Sihaiwei, and under some kind of exchange and compromise, he participated in a certain program, and of course, what I value more is the opportunity to go to the Jingshi University Hall to study and fill in the gaps.

After coming out of this shabby-looking branch, it was a different mood.

At least I'm no longer alone, recovering and getting an important channel of information, and with it, some of the resources that can be mobilized, though I don't know how much is left.

When I returned, I found that many local villagers wearing straw sandals and rain hats, cloth clothes or paper armor were gathering at the ferry.

The horsemen on the ship, already in armor and with crossbows in their hands, stood on the deck, forming a kind of squad that was conducive to advance and retreat, escorting Mrs. Chen and her party off the ship.

"We have to divert to shore ......"

The wind roll flag, which was standing anxiously at the entrance of the city in civilian clothes, also brought people to greet me, surrounded me, and said in a low voice.

"Something happened to the Qingyuan army downstream...... It is not advisable to continue sailing"

My first reaction was that this was the hinterland of Lingnan. What the hell, isn't the shadow of the Grim Reaper Schoolboy and the second boy in Ponytail not far away from me?
