Chapter 32 Do It Yourself, Have Plenty of Food and Clothing
When Li Hongfei finished assigning, the troops who had been able to maintain discipline before began to whisper at this time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After all, he is a recruit who has only been in the army for a long time, and his discipline needs to be improved.
"Lord Li, this time the whole army is transferred to Baoshan Town, but there is going to be a war?" Guo Sheng said excitedly.
Guo Sheng is a war maniac by nature, and when he talks about fighting, his eyes are even glowing green.
His boss led his troops to Chongming Island seven days ago, Baoshan Town and Chongming Island were only separated by a river, and the whole army was transferred there, Guo Sheng's first thought was to fight.
And most of the troops whispering below are talking about this matter.
"Don't worry, since you are a soldier, there will always be a time to go to the battlefield, but there are more than 30,000 soldiers on Chongming Island, not to mention Zheng Zhilong's sailors, even if it is a war, it will not be your turn for the time being." Li Hongfei said.
A group of recruits who have only been training for a few days, many of whom have never even touched a firearm, and can only practice stabbing with a wooden bayonet every day, what combat effectiveness can such a unit have?
"This march is not only a field training, but also a leading troops to the future boot camp. In the future, this Baoshan town will be used as a base camp for recruit training, which is closest to the battlefield, so that everyone can feel the atmosphere of the war and at the same time, it is also convenient to support at any time. Li Hongfei explained.
He won't tell this group of people, mainly to protect Suzhou Heavy Industry!
When Guo Sheng entered the city with more than 2,000 troops, shouting neat trumpets and wearing strange costumes, he immediately attracted a large group of people to watch.
"This is the new army that used to shout strange slogans every day?"
"It's also very fast to wear, and it looks quite imposing, but I don't know what will happen when I go to the battlefield?"
The common people made various evaluations of this group of troops entering the city, but most of them did not have much hope, and the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty army was basically well known to the common people.
Even a thief like Li Zicheng can't be exterminated, how much combat power can he have?
"I heard that Suzhou has not been in the army for a long time, right? It seems that the holy decree has only come down for seven or eight days, and in such a short period of time, the army can do it, it is as fast as the wind, and it is as slow as a forest, it seems that this Lord Li is indeed a good soldier in training. A big man who drinks in a real restaurant can't help but sigh.
"If you can be praised by Brother Liheng, this Lord Li will definitely be a famous general in the future, we might as well go directly to the prefect of Suzhou, and the province will continue to stay in Jiangyin for a long time." Someone next to him explained.
Dahan didn't seem to hear it, but looked at the advancing army below, and after a long time, Dahan drank all the wine in the cup, and then said slowly: "I, Yan Yingyuan, am just a canonical history that is not of the grade, how can I get the support of the prefect?" Besides, the old mother at home is sick and doesn't dare to travel long distances. ”
This Li Hongfei is not an ordinary prefect, he is simply a prince, although Yan Yingyuan has the heart to defect, he does not have the slightest way.
Yan Yingyuan in history, but the famous anti-Qing general, during the history of Jiangyin, led 60,000 righteous people, faced 240,000 Qing army iron cavalry, more than 200 heavy artillery, trapped in the lonely city for 81 days, so that the Qing army broke three kings and 18 generals, 75,000 dead and wounded, known as Jiangyin 81 days in history.
On the day of the destruction of the city, none of the righteous people surrendered, and the survivors were only 53 old and young.
After Yan Yingyuan was captured, he resolutely refused to kneel to the Qing court, and was pierced in the tibia, "blood gushed and served", but he never bent his knees, and finally died heroically.
It can be said that he is the first hero of the people in the late Ming Dynasty!
It's just that although this person is very talented, not long after he took office, he even pacified the bandits and salt thieves in Jiangyin, but now it is only the local people in Jiangyin who know it in their hearts, why did the capital ask Li Hongfei to reuse him?
The so-called heroes, how many of them have left a well-known name in their lifetime?
However, the army trained by Li Hongfei touched Yan Yingyuan so much that he went further and more brilliantly on the road of resisting the Qing Dynasty in the future..........
Take the Grand Canal from Suzhou into the Yangtze River, and then go down the river, it only takes one day and night to reach Baoshan Town.
This time, Li Hongfei had to go with Zhou Furen, and it would take about a week to go back and forth, in ancient times where transportation was inconvenient, compared to those long journeys of one or two years, this was just a short outing.
Therefore, Li Hongfei only needs to hand over the matters in hand simply, and he can travel boldly with confidence.
Due to the limited number of ships, Li Hongfei could only ensure that all the Suzhou soldiers and the personnel and equipment of the Ordnance Bureau were on board.
The 20,000 Qi family troops led by Qi Zhifeng had already packed their bags, and each soldier brought two days' rations and marched towards Baoshan Town first.
Since Li Hongfei stipulated that he must arrive within two days, he only prepared two days' rations for the other party, and if he couldn't arrive, then wait to starve.
The Qi family's army was indeed very tired on foot, but the Suzhou soldiers who left by boat could not stand it well.
Before moving equipment in the city, it was just a drizzle, and what really tortured people was after the fleet had gone through a day and night march and arrived at Baoshan Town.
"Master Li, are you lying to us? Didn't you say before that this would be our camp in the future? But not to mention the brick fence here, there is not even a tent! Guo Sheng felt that he had been tricked.
"Do it yourself, in order to have enough food and clothing, this is not too early, if you don't want to sleep in the wild, you should quickly find a place to set up camp! By the way, when choosing a camping site, we must follow the standards of war, and we must not be careless, which is also one of the contents of the training. Li Hongfei didn't bother to sit on the boat at all, but handed over everything to Guo Sheng to take care of.
He didn't want to sleep in the open, so he decided to continue sleeping on the ship tonight.
That's right, Li Hongfei is playing Guo Sheng and other generals, once you leave the wharf, it is basically a wasteland, the ancient mineral base is not comparable to later generations, except for some miners who work here, there is basically not much population, this dock for stopping the ship, or the Zhou family is convenient to transport various materials, so it was built at a cost.
Li Hongfei mobilized the army to come over so that these soldiers, in addition to training, could help speed up the construction process of Suzhou Heavy Industry, or at least speed up the launch of the firearms production line.
Now the first task of Guo Sheng and others is to build a camp, first set up a camp for their own 2,000 people, and then build the camp of the Qi family's army.
It is believed that after Qi Zhifeng's 20,000 people arrive, Zhou Furen has already bought the land for the nearby factory, and then more than 20,000 people can work together to quickly help debug and install the firearms production line, which is the fundamental reason why Li Hongfei mobilized the army to come over.
Let the army do some porter matters in addition to training, this method can only be imagined by Li Hongfei, firstly, to make the soldiers exercise and enhance their physique, and secondly, to help the Ordnance Bureau put into production as soon as possible, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Moreover, Zhou Furen's factory is a government-run enterprise, and letting the army help is not a personal use of power at all.
