Chapter Eighty-Nine: Arrangement
After listening to Shi Lang's words, Pang Yue couldn't help but say yes again and again in his heart, it can be said that Shi Lang's words were exactly what he was thinking. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIn the seventeenth century, the most valuable people were still talent, and those experienced craftsmen and technicians were definitely a valuable asset.
However, before Pang Yue could speak, Zhang Yunli raised his own question: "My lord, as for those craftsmen brought to Ganzhou by our army, it is better to say that as long as they are willing to continue to follow our army to Huguang, it is difficult for others to say anything." It's just that those artisan households that belong to Ganzhou Wei and the following thousands of households and are registered are a little difficult to do. If our army takes them away, not to mention how to explain to the imperial court, even Lord Huang and General Hao will not be able to talk about it. ”
Indeed, those craftsmen are all artisan households registered with the Ministry of War, not private hired laborers, and it is not appropriate to take them away directly. What should I do? Pang Yue's mind was racing fast.
"Brother Zibin is reasonable," Lu Qiwu said, "As for the craftsmen, adults don't have to worry too much. Now that the Lord has concurrently served as the commander of the Huguang Metropolitan Division, he can transfer a group of craftsmen from the various guards when he arrives in Huguang. There's no need to be upset by these little things right now. ”
"However, many of those craftsmen, especially those weapons craftsmen of the Ordnance Bureau, are skilled hands who have already mastered the skills of making flintlock pistols and certain cannon casting techniques, and if they are taken away directly, they can quickly recover or even exceed the existing scale of construction when they arrive in Huguang." Shi Lang said, "It is true that there are also a large number of craftsmen in Huguang, but if you start from scratch, you will undoubtedly waste more time." ”
"The Marquis is right," Tian Shizun said, "Now that the situation is urgent, the sooner we can create sharper weapons, our army will have a better chance of winning." With the original skilled craftsmen, the process is bound to be much faster. If you wait for Huguang to search for craftsmen, it will undoubtedly delay time and even miss the opportunity. ”
It seems that this seemingly simple matter is really not easy to deal with. After a while, everyone present put forward their own opinions.
After listening to everyone's opinions, Pang Yue had a rough idea in his heart, and there were still many aspects to consider in the matter of adjusting the defense, and he didn't want to waste too much time on this matter, so he said: "Okay, this matter will be left to me, you don't have to think about it first." In addition, the journey to Huguang is far away, and how to arrange the grain and grass needed by more than 10,000 people and horses of our army also needs to be considered carefully in advance. Mr. Zijing, I would like to hear your opinion first. ”
"Okay." Tian Shizun nodded.
……
The discussion lasted until late at night, during which the soldiers who were waiting outside the door also came in to refill the tea several times.
Through this discussion, Pang Yue and his subordinates formulated a general plan for the deployment of defense, but some details are still being discussed. Seeing that it was getting late, Pang Yue was not prepared to rush at this time, but asked everyone to go back and rest first, and as for the remaining details, they would be slowly improved in practice in the next few days.
After everyone retired, Pang Yue also lay down to rest after washing up. Although the night was deep, he lay in bed and could not sleep for a long time. In fact, after receiving the decree this evening, he could no longer have peace in his heart. Emperor Longwu's trust and respect made him somewhat flattered.
The commander of the Huguang army and the capital commander, this position may not be anything in the past, but now that Huguang has become the ruling hub of the Longwu court, this position is particularly important. Therefore, before receiving the holy decree, Pang Yue, who had always been self-aware, did not have too many thoughts, but he did not expect that Emperor Longwu would really hand over this burden to himself.
Well deserved! Pang Yue turned over and sighed secretly in his heart: It has been more than a year since he came to the end of the Ming Dynasty inexplicably because of that iron lump last year. In this year, although he did some things, he also changed the fate of Emperor Longwu and saved the outcome of the Longwu Imperial Court, but in general, he still left a lot of regrets, the overall situation of the enemy's strength and weakness has not changed, and most of the Central Plains and even Jiangnan have fallen into the hands of the enemy. This time to Huguang, there is still a long way to go! …,
However, when he thought of going to Huguang soon, Pang Yue had some expectations in his heart, after all, it was his hometown in his previous life. Although I can't go back to my original home, I can find some comfort in this way. I just don't know what my dreaming homeland will look like in the Ming Dynasty.
Thousands of thoughts lingered in Pang Yue's mind, and it wasn't until the second half of the night that he fell asleep grogily.
"True slave, one hundred and one, write it down, the next ......" The next morning, in a warehouse in Ganzhou Town, the military department staff Shi Lang Zhonglu Taiping Zheng and a group of small officials were counting something, and the university scholars He Wusu and Pang Yue were present.
Listening to the little official keep counting the numbers, He Wuyu's old face was full of surprise, and he looked at Pang Yue beside him with disbelief from time to time.
The thing that surprised Master He so much was nothing else, it was the head of Jiannu that Ganzhou Town had obtained, a total of five hundred and ninety-six levels, which had been made of lime and nitrated, and had been piled up into two hills in the warehouse.
Although He Wusu had been in Ganzhou City before, and Pang Yue also told him the number of captures, He Wusu just laughed at the number of five hundred and ninety-six, and he had lived for more than sixty years, and he hadn't seen a false report? In addition to laughing, Old Master He even lamented that Pang Yue was even afraid of false reports.
But today He Wuyu has nothing to say, at least the more than 100 Jiannu heads that have been counted are all genuine, and the military officials who specialize in this carefully checked the teeth and braids of each head, and did not find the slightest element of fraud.
"Ganzhou Town has gained a lot this time!" He Wusu looked at the two hills of Jiannu heads, and said with deep feelings.
Since all the more than 100 that have been counted are true, the rest should not be fake. Five hundred and ninety-six levels, all of them are the first level of Jiannu, which makes He Wusu have to be surprised. You must know that during the Chongzhen period, when the Ming border army fought against Jiannu, even if it was beheaded dozens of levels, it was enough for the Ming army to be the capital to repay the victory.
"General Pang is a pillar of the country because he governs the army well and uses troops effectively!" Before Pang Yue could react, He Wuyu added another sentence.
"The elder has won the award, and the last general deserves it!" Pang Yue hurriedly said, "The elder of the pavilion is in the temple, and he works hard for the country all the time, and the hard work he has paid is incomparable to the last general. As a martial artist, the last general can't contribute to state affairs like the elders, so he can only share his worries for the monarch by desperately killing the enemy. What's more, to have such a victory, it is inseparable from the heroic battles of the soldiers, and the last general alone can not be so praised by the elders. ”
Hearing Pang Yue's words, He Wuyu was stunned at first, and then the appreciation in his eyes became a little stronger, and he said in his heart that it is not easy for a military general to be so aware of gains and losses, and to know how to advance and retreat!
"Your Excellency!" At this moment, Wei Yuan ran in, first saluted He Wuyu, and then came to Pang Yue's side and whispered.
After Wei Yuan finished speaking, Pang Yue's face couldn't help but become serious, and he hurriedly hugged his fist to He Wusu and said, "Elder Ge, there is something waiting for the last general to deal with, and the last general will be out of company." ”
He Wuyu nodded: "It's okay." ”
