Chapter Ninety-Nine: Operational Research
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Wu Fanhui specially invited the officials of the county government room, and the officials were flattered and very happy, after all, Wu Fanhui was a small three yuan, and he would rush to Xi'an Fucheng to participate in the township test in the second half of the year. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, Wu Fanhui mentioned one thing, that is, he wanted to look at the Ming map made by the edict, and it was best to borrow a night to look at it, after all, if you are going to go out to travel, you need to be prepared.
The Ming map is not something you want to see, and it is impossible for someone to print it out and sell it, that is to be arrested and punished, the imperial court is very strict in the management of the Ming map, without the emperor's holy decree, it is impossible to print out the map at all, and the local government has one or two Ming maps, which are for the county lord to see.
From time to time, some students who are rushing to take the exam or traveling will also come to the government to see the map, and they need to determine the route or determine the specific plan through the map, which is an open secret, and the government does not take it seriously.
The secretary readily agreed, of course he thought that Wu Fanhui was thinking about going out to travel, after all, Wu Fanhui had already gone to the county school to prepare, but he didn't plan to go to class, he would definitely go out to travel for such a long time, the secretary was very envious, people were not the same people, they were obviously going out to play in the mountains and rivers, and they were called traveling.
It happened to be spring break, except for the people on duty in the county government, the rest were at home for the Spring Festival, Wu Fanhui lent out the map, look at a night, there is no big deal, tomorrow morning will come back, no one will find out, and the secretary has Wu Fanhui's broken silver in his pocket, and he is embarrassed not to agree.
The treasury was on the left side of the second hall, Wu Fanhui stayed in the warehouse for more than an hour, and the secretary was dazed and dozing on the side, until Wu Fanhui called him, he woke up, and said that he would finish reading it so soon.
When he returned home, Wu Fanhui spread out the map and quickly began to supplement the simple map drawn by Li Yong, focusing on some places in Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, and Beizhili.
As for the south, Wu Fanhui is simple to draw, and he doesn't need a map of the south for the time being.
The so-called Ming Dynasty map, far less than the map hundreds of years later, is very beautifully printed, but unfortunately it is too simple, many places do not even mark the name of the county, let alone mark the terrain.
But it doesn't matter, as long as Wu Fanhui has the map drawn in his hand, he can think of a way to improve it.
The role of the map, Wu Fanhui is very clear, it can be said that anything he wants to do, is inseparable from the map, when Liu Bang entered the Xianyang palace, Prime Minister Xiao He, the first thing he did was to collect maps and books, which allowed Liu Bang to understand the world's mountains and rivers, human geography, for Liu Bang later Dingding, played a vital role.
Wu Fanhui also knew that the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty attached great importance to map books, and ordered every time the generals entered the customs and plundered, they all had to collect maps of the Ming Dynasty, and the more detailed the better.
The march and battle are separated from the map, it can be said that the blind man cannot fight at all, and the military map is different from the map of the government, which must have detailed geomorphological features, including many small villages to be marked, and roads are indispensable.
This night, Wu Fanhui hardly slept.
Early the next morning, after returning the map to the ceremonial officer, Wu Fanhui rode his horse to Shilipu.
"You see, Mizhi County is one hundred and fourteen miles away from Jiazhou, about four hundred miles away from Shenmu County, and five hundred and twenty miles away from Fugu, according to the information we have learned, most of the rogues are active in the Fugu and Shenmu areas, and some of the rogues are active in the Jiazhou area, since we have made a decision to defeat a few bandits, then we need to have detailed information."
"Starting tomorrow, Ma Jigang, Liu Fangheng, the two of you will take three or five brothers respectively, divided into two teams, and enter Jiazhou and Shenmu to investigate, be sure to find out the true situation of Liukou, Wang Baofu and Wang Decai are more familiar with the route, Ma Jigang took Wang Baofu and entered Jiazhou to investigate, and Liu Fangheng took Wang Decai and went directly to Shenmu to investigate."
"In the process of investigation, whether you have found out about the situation of the Liukou or not, there are three things that must be done, the first is to find out the situation along the road, including the number of people walking on the official road, the situation of the local squire, it is best to know the attitude of the state and county yamen towards the Liukou, and what the sergeants guarding the yamen are doing."
"The second thing is to draw a detailed map, as long as it is the place you have walked, the situation of the road, the name of the village and town, the size of the population, the surrounding terrain, etc., all clearly marked on the map, I know that you are not very literate, but no matter what method you use, you must mark it."
"The third thing, don't be reckless, don't clash with anyone, unless the other party directly threatens your life, if you encounter such a situation, decisively, kill them all, don't leave a living mouth, there are not many of you, once you get into trouble with the rogue, it is difficult to escape, you will suffer a greater loss when you meet the official army, I need you to detect the intelligence, don't want you to lose your life."
"The time I give you is about twenty days, when you go to Jiazhou and Shenmu, you go on horseback, but in the process of reconnaissance, don't ride a horse, so as not to attract attention, try to store the war horse in the inn."
"If you find the traces of the Liukou, you remember, it is best to find the location of the old camp of the Liukou, their money, food and equipment are all in the old camp, as for the camp where the homeless and hungry people are stationed, you don't have to care, the camp where the Liukou are stationed is generally a certain distance from the old camp, so you need to be careful, but don't be reluctant, find the danger, and evacuate quickly."
。。。
After the arrangement, Wu Fanhui walked in front of Ma Jigang and Liu Fangheng and patted them on the shoulder.
Ma Jigang, Liu Fangheng and the others listened very carefully, for fear of missing a word, but they never thought about how Wu Fanhui knew that Liukou had an old camp, but they would never ask, in their opinion, the young master was omnipotent.
Wang Baofu and Wang Decai entered the room.
In just two days, the complexion on their faces has changed, they can't see the dishes, they can eat and drink enough, and they recover quickly.
When the two of them entered the house, they had a cautious look on their faces, especially Wang Baofu, who was a little active in his mind, and believed that Wu Fanhui would be able to do big things in the future, as for how to call him, they had already changed it, and they didn't dare to call him eldest brother, so he changed it to young master.
"Wang Baofu, Wang Decai, there is a very important task that you need to complete, and you must do your best."
"Wang Baofu, you follow Ma Jigang's side, Wang Decai, you follow Liu Fangheng's side, you must absolutely obey the order, if you dare to disobey the order, don't think that you can return to Shilipu."
As soon as Wu Fanhui said this, Wang Baofu immediately spoke.
"Don't worry, young master, we will absolutely obey the order."
Wu Fanhui nodded slightly, his impression of Wang Baofu was still a little deep, originally he had a scholar Li Jingfei by his side, but Li Jingfei was too young, many things could not be done at all, and in turn he needed to take care of him, so he went to Xi'an Fucheng in September to participate in the township test, and it was definitely not possible to take Li Jingfei with him, and Li Jingfei was studying in the school, and he could not delay time.
Wang Baofu is very good, flexible, and able to turn around.
"You have been active in the area of Jiazhou, and even been to Shenmu, you are somewhat familiar with the terrain over there, this time you followed out, just to help figure out the situation in Jiazhou and Shenmu, Wang Baofu, you follow Ma Jigang to Jiazhou, Wang Decai, you follow Liu Fangheng to Shenmu, remember, along the way, you have to keep your eyes open, and you must do everything possible to recall, how you survived in Jiazhou, what are the hidden roads, and where will the Liukou choose to set up camp."
"In fact, your life back then was much more difficult than that of the Liukou, so you should know something about them, you came back from Shandong, you must have encountered a lot of things along the way, you encountered the siege of the Liukou, if you didn't know anything about the Liukou, you couldn't escape back, so what did you think back then, most of the Liukou nowadays are also this idea."
"During this investigation, you have to make suggestions, especially when it is possible to detect the situation of the rogues, say what you think, and you must remind the brothers along the way how to dress up and how to do it, so as not to arouse the suspicion of others."
"I believe in you, you will be able to complete the task of this investigation, can you guarantee the completion of the task?"
"Young master, we promise to complete the task...
This time, Wang Baofu and Wang Decai spoke almost at the same time, and their voices were also very neat.
After the two left the house, Wu Fanhui spoke to Ma Jigang and Liu Fangheng and the others again.
"Wang Baofu is clever and can always pay attention to the surrounding situation, Ma Jigang, when investigating in Jiazhou, listen to Wang Baofu's advice, I'm afraid that this investigation should be based on Wang Baofu's advice, Wang Decai is honest, a lot of words will not be said soon, Liu Fangheng, you need to be patient, but at the critical moment, you still have to make your own decisions, don't think about relying on Wang Decai, that may delay the big thing."
"Did you hear me clearly?"
"Hear me."
"Okay, make all preparations today, set off tomorrow, Ma Jigang, you must return to Shilipu before the twenty-sixth day of the first month, Liu Fangheng, you must come back before the end of the first month, I will wait for your good news in Shilipu."
In the reverent eyes of Ma Jigang, Sun Kailin, Liu Fangheng and Dai Nengxiang and others, Wu Fanhui turned around and walked out of the house, he took into account almost all aspects, but any fight, there will be accidents, foolproof does not exist, can only be as prepared as possible to minimize losses.
