Chapter 89: Let the fire be loaded with bayonets
(0089)
[Today's third update is delivered, the same is a 5000-word chapter, ask for collection, ask for recommendation ~~~~]
According to the on-site inventory, there were more than 370 corpses in total, of which about 30% were armed, and the rest were unarmed personnel. Why are there so many casualties among unarmed people? The main reason is that Wang Fuhai frantically killed his family before he died, at least fifty or sixty people. In addition, there are also some scoundrels who are active in Fushan City, who tried to take advantage of the fire to loot and fish in troubled waters, but were killed on the spot by the escorts to set an example.
There are also some black-hearted businessmen who have also been suppressed by the military households this time, and the angry military households have vented their anger on them. At the same time, many people who used to help the abuse of thousands of houses, such as housekeepers and account offices, have also been suppressed. There are also some family members of hundreds of households and Zongqi, who also died in the war. As for the rest, it is the innocent casualties of the war.
On the side of the escort team, a total of nine soldiers were killed, and more than 30 soldiers were wounded, including Yang Qianqiang, the leader of Team B. In addition, three soldiers who rushed into the city to assist in the battle were killed and more than a dozen were wounded. Soldiers who died and were wounded and retired were rewarded with military fields. However, the sacrificed households, because they are not soldiers, can only be compensated for some symbolic surnames. After all, regulations are regulations, and they cannot be arbitrarily deleted or changed.
In general, such a price is acceptable to Zhang Zhun.
If you want to fight a war without casualties, you can only do it in mythology.
"My lord, this is the number of weapons seized."
Zou Mingjia continued to report.
A list of the various weapons seized has also been listed.
In this battle, the escort captured a total of 41 guns of various colors, 237 waist knives, 75 spears, 11 hook spears, 25 joint bows, 308 arrowheads, 35 cans of fire oil, and 16 sassers...... There are also some damaged weapons that cannot be repaired for the time being, which are not counted.
The quality of these weapons is generally not good. The quality of some of the weapons, which is even inferior to the convoy's own, especially the spears, is simply too poor. Zhang Yatie and Peng Bo used the captured spears for experiments, and the two spears collided fiercely, and one of them was about to break. There are even cases where two spears are broken at the same time, which is really laughable. If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your weapons, and with such a weapon quality, it is really naïve to want to defeat others.
Zhang Zhun then ordered to leave some of the better quality weapons for backup, and the rest of the weapons were sent to the second-line escort team, martial arts team, and the like. In this battle against Fushan City, their performance was also outstanding. Some of the outstanding performers were added to the main force of the escort team after the battle ended. At the same time, the number of injured and retired divisions also continued to increase.
Among the weapons seized, the first to come in handy were the 41 firecrackers that were captured. They were quickly equipped into Yang Zixuan's team. In this way, Yang Zixuan's squad has become a musket team with pure firearms, which greatly enhances the lethality of firearms. However, after repeated tests, the lethality of these firecrackers is really not very good. If you want to shoot there is no range, if you want the rate of fire there is no rate of fire, if you want to be lethal there is no lethality. If there is no better musket, such as the Lumi Gun, the musket team is not as effective as a spear team. The only thing that is desirable is that the gunfire is very loud and can deter some enemies.
"Let's equip it first."
Zhang Zhun could only tell Yang Zixuan like this.
After the lottery for the distribution of land in the country came to an end, the allocation of military land was put on the agenda again. However, since the number of military fields is not large, they all have names and surnames, which is not very complicated. On the morning of the 10th day of May, the ceremony for the distribution of military fields was also held at the training ground.
Zhang Zhun was personally responsible for issuing the title deed of military land to each officer and soldier or their family. The title deed of the military field is red, which is very eye-catching, and there is a six-pointed star background sign on it. Speaking of this background sign, it is not easy to get it, in order to show the difference in this title deed. The first to be distributed were the three soldiers who died in the battle of ambushing the Black Panthers, and Brigadier Zhang sent the bright red title deeds to their relatives. Subsequently, Lin Bin and others also came to the stage on crutches to receive their own military fields.
Because of Juntian's special surname, everyone who received Juntian felt unusually hot in their hearts. Since then, whether they are injured or sacrificed, or they retire normally, they have earned a valuable family inheritance for their children and grandchildren. Therefore, everyone cherishes their identity as an escort more and more.
Yang Guohua and others also received their own military land, each of which was also five acres. At the same time, because they killed several quasi-Tartars in the battle against Fukushima and killed a considerable number of enemies with artillery in the battle against Fushan Castle, they were also rewarded for their meritorious service. In the end, Yang Guohua obtained as much as 15 acres of land. When the two points of the red title deed were in hand, this former little pirate leader was so happy that he danced with his hands and improvised a Nanyang dance for everyone, which was breathtaking.
Zhang Zhun himself also got two red land deeds. One of the title deeds indicates that it is five acres of fertile land, and this title deed is owned by every soldier who joins the army, and Zhang Zhun also has a share. Another red title deed, which indicates that it is 36 acres of fertile land, is a reward for Zhang Zhun for his meritorious service in killing the enemy. In terms of rewards for killing enemies and making meritorious contributions, everyone's evaluation is very consistent. Since Zhang Zhun killed an enemy, he also had to get a reward.
If you kill Yang Kun, you should be rewarded with 2 acres of military land, because Yang Kun is a small leader; If you kill the black panther, you should be rewarded with 2 acres of military land, for the same reason as before; If you kill the pirate leader Rubink, you should be rewarded with another 2 acres, and the reason is still the same as before; To lead everyone to destroy the Tartars, at least 20 acres of military land should be rewarded, because there are two Tartars who completely died in the hands of Zhang Zhun; To lead everyone to conquer Fushan City, at least 10 acres of military land should be rewarded. All combined, the various rewards are a total of 36 acres of military land.
Zhang Zhun himself must accept such a reward, otherwise, the officers and soldiers below will not be able to form a standard. Now, the escort team has this clear standard, and in the future, everyone will have a reference for killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions. Killing a normal enemy is rewarded with only 1 acre of military field. Kill an enemy mini-boss to get a reward of 2 acres of military land. Kill a Tartar and you will be rewarded with 10 acres of military land. Therefore, from any point of view, killing Tartars is the most cost-effective. Of course, killing the Tartars is also the most difficult.
In just two days, the civilian fields and military fields were successively distributed to the hands of the relevant personnel. The military households who have obtained the fields are busy. The soldiers who got the military field handed over the title deed to their relatives and carefully treasured it, which was to be left to future generations, and it would be troublesome if they were lost. As for Yang Guohua and the others who have no relatives, it doesn't matter, there are many people in Fushan who want to recruit them, and these military fields are dowry.
Zhang Zhun and a few of them are actually just as busy. After taking Fushan City, everything is in ruins, and almost every field needs to be overturned. According to the previous discussion, Liu Hang and the other three will write a large number of announcements and post them to every corner of the Fushan Institute for everyone to understand. At the same time, the three of them will convene the relevant personnel of the Shengxia Sect to explain various laws and regulations.
In order to better carry out the work of land distribution, Zhang Zhun set up two institutions, the Mintian Department and the Military Field Division, which were specially responsible for the distribution of Mintian and Juntian, and the leaders were Wang Mingyu and Liu Hang. Although Mintian and Juntian have been divided, and the relevant personnel have obtained the title deed, the follow-up work behind is the majority. The military households outside the Fushan Station should have rushed to the place when they heard the slogan of exempting the fields from taxation, and they also needed to allocate the fields. At the same time, with the continuous growth of the escort force, there are constantly people who have made meritorious contributions, sacrifices, and been injured, and there are more and more military fields that need to be distributed.
As for the household registration order and the business order, as long as it is published, there is no substantive surname for the time being. Hou Shanping proposed to open a school, and Zhang Zhun agreed, but due to imperfect conditions, it was necessary to put it aside for the time being. Things here are so busy that Hou Shanping can't leave yet.
After allocating both the civilian land and the military land, Zhang Zhun felt that the most important thing now was to mobilize part of the people to clean up the city. After enduring the stench for two days, Zhang Zhun finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Fushan City is too sloppy, it needs to be cleaned from the inside out!"
Zhang Zhun said with a solemn face.
Fushan City was besieged by military households for more than a month, and the materials outside the city could not come in, and the garbage in the city could not get out, resulting in a mountain of garbage in the city and a very serious sewer blockage. In fact, the towns of the Ming Dynasty already had advanced sewer systems, which could effectively drain away the stagnant water on the ground. But there is a premise, that is, the sewers are unblocked. If the sewers are clogged, the consequences are unimaginable, and all the feces and water will run into the streets.
When Zhang Zhun had just entered Fushan City, he felt the stench in the city. On the one hand, there is the smell from the garbage heap, and on the other hand, the stench from the sewer. The stench even masks the smell of blood. Even the constant blowing of the sea breeze could not completely dispel the stench, and it was especially painful to sleep at night, as if you were locked in a pigsty. I really don't know how Wang Shixin's people endured it, is this a human life? It is ten times worse than the previous Yangjiatun.
Naturally, everyone had no objection to Zhang Zhun's proposal. In fact, all the military households who entered Fushan City felt the stench in it. If this stench is not cleaned up, it will not be inhabitable at all. So, everyone worked together to clean up the garbage in the city, clean up, and dredge the sewers. Those obviously dilapidated houses were simply demolished and rebuilt.
After three days of hard work, the mountains of garbage and sewers were all cleaned up. Zhang Zhun brought in living water from Laoshan again, washed all the sewers, and the stench in the air immediately dissipated. The sea breeze is blowing and the air is much fresher. Standing at the top of the castle, you can smell the sea. A brand-new Fushan City appeared in front of everyone.
Thousands of houses were also cleared. This is naturally the place where Zhang Zhun lives. However, the area of the thousand-household house is really large, and Zhang Zhun originally wanted Yang Kaide's family to move in. However, the old man Yang Kaide did not agree. The old man felt that although he and Zhang Zhun had a close relationship, they would still be related soon after, but the current Zhang Zhun was Zhang Zhun of all the military households in Fushan. Zhang Zhun is one of the thousands of households elected by everyone, and it is natural to live in a thousand-household house, but it is not appropriate for others to live in it. Even Yang Yinghan can't live in a thousand houses for the time being, after all, she hasn't passed the door yet!
The old man was very stubborn, Zhang Zhun persuaded twice, but the old man was unmoved, and Zhang Zhun did not persuade him. He understood that the old man did not want his image to be damaged. So, Zhang Zhun lived alone in a huge house of 1,000 households. As for the fact that there have been many unjust souls here, Zhang Zhun is not afraid at all. Demons are afraid of the wicked. In front of him, a wicked man, no demons and monsters dared to appear.
However, it is indeed a waste to live in a huge house of 1,000 households. Zhang Zhun then ordered Liu Hang, Wang Mingyu, Hou Shanping and others to live in a thousand houses. Everyone lives together, so it's convenient to discuss when there is something to do, and you don't have to look for people everywhere. The three of them thought about it and thought it was true, so they agreed. Despite this, Zhang Zhun alone still occupies half a thousand houses, and the place is very large.
In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, except for a few prosperous cities, in other places, there is really no shortage of building land, as long as there is money, there is no problem with how big the building is. If you have money and no place to spend it, you can find a place in Laoshan and build a palace.
After taking Fushan City, Zhang Zhun really had too many things to deal with, and he was so busy every day that he couldn't get his feet on the ground.
On 14 May, Zhang Zhun held a solemn funeral for the fallen soldiers, which was attended by about 3,000 military households. The sacrificed warriors were buried in Laoshan Mountain. Zhang Zhun specially built a martyr's cemetery here to bury all the martyrs who died in battle. The martyrs in the future will be buried in this martyr's cemetery. The martyrs who died in the past will also move here in the future. Every year on the Qingming Festival, Zhang Zhun will lead the escort team and the backbone personnel of the Shengxia Sect to come here to pay respects.
Subsequently, the convoy held a celebration party to recognize those who had distinguished themselves in the battle. The artillery led by Yang Guohua was highly praised by Zhang Zhun. In particular, they dismantled the Franc cannon without complaint and carried it from the bottom of the city along the stairs to the top of the city, which made the other soldiers deeply admired. Also praised were Yin Fengyi, Zhang Yatie, Peng Bo and others. At this celebration party, Peng Bo was promoted to vice president.
After the celebration meeting, it was a summary meeting. At the summary meeting, the most heated debate was the question of whether or not to be equipped with firearms. The firearms currently equipped by the escort team, except for the three Lumi guns, the other firearms are not very satisfactory. Zhang Zhun was interested in gradually expanding the number of equipment in the team, and Yang Zhiyuan and Hao Linyong, two generals, both reserved their opinions. The two of them were really not very impressed by the current power of the firearm, and they were still willing to use the three-edged thorn and spear to deal with the enemy.
In fact, most of the officers and men of the escort have the same views as the two of them. The rate of fire and accuracy of the gun were huge defects, and when the situation was critical, it was simply unusable. On the contrary, no matter how critical the situation, spears and triangular thorns are weapons to be trusted. Of course, if Zhang Zhun could get a sharp firearm like Lu Mi Gong, they wouldn't mind changing all of Lu Mi Gong. At the same time, it would be even better if you could turn the firebolt into a spear, and if necessary, you could turn it into a spear and use it.
"There's no problem with that, just put on the bayonet."
Turning the firearm into a spear for hand-to-hand combat is naturally no problem at all, just equip it with a bayonet.
However, it was a bit difficult to make a firearm as sharp as the Rumi Gun. The barrel of the Lumi gun is really hard to get. Zhang Zhun searched for dry intestines and finally thought of a replacement. He ordered Zhou Shiwen and others to start collecting graphite, flint and other materials for backup, and at the same time asked Li Fenglai and others to provide Zhou Shiwen with the best quality steel. As for what kind of firearms will be produced, Zhang Zhun did not elaborate.
On 15 May, Zhang Zhun began to dispose of the various materials seized.
After the inventory of Yang Yinghan, Xue Zhidie, and Xue Ningying, the property left by Wang Shixin's family is worth about 3,000 taels of silver. Of these, about 1,300 taels of gold and silver, and about 1,700 taels of the rest of the property. There are also properties whose value cannot be estimated and can only be left for the time being. As for Wang Shixin's land, it was originally the most valuable, but now it has all been taken out for redistribution.
Of course, Wang Shixin's various industries in other places, Zhang Zhun has taken over. Wang Shixin's ability is really not small, and he has his industry in Qingzhou Mansion, Jinan Mansion, Yanzhou Mansion and Dongchang Mansion, and even Huai'an Mansion in Nanzhili. These industries involve grain, cotton, medicinal materials and other industries, and the annual profit is several hundred taels of silver.
In addition to gold, silver and jewelry, the escort also seized about 300 stone of grain, which is about 60,000 catties when converted. These grains were stored in Wang Shixin's private warehouse, and the warehouse was piled to the brim. Originally, according to the regulations of the health center, there should have been a granary. In the past, when military households still had land, everyone paid taxes to 1,000 households according to the standard of two buckets per mu of land, and 1,000 households used this grain, part of which was handed over to the state treasury and part of it was used to distribute everyone's money and grain. But now, there are no mice in the granary, there is not a grain of rice, and all the monthly food drawn on it has entered Wang Shixin's bag.
I can't understand why Wang Shixin stubbornly guarded so much food and refused to distribute it to military households, and finally buried his surname. 60,000 catties of grain can save many people. Is food, gold, silver, and jewelry more important than a person's life? It's stupid. However, if Wang Shixin hadn't been so stupid, Zhang Zhun would probably be a military household with peace and security now.
Starting from May 16, Zhang Zhun took Ma Yi to inspect Fushan City. He must grasp all the war resources of Fushan City as soon as possible, tap the war potential, and make good preparations for dealing with the counterattack of officers and men. Judging from the news that he sent back, the officers and soldiers have not yet moved, and he must seize every minute to prepare.
The first stop of the inspection was naturally the Armament Bureau, the God Hangar, the Gunpowder Bureau and other key points.
