Chapter 49 Carrier Pigeon Intelligence
The rock pigeon is the carrier pigeon of later generations, and the history of domesticating pigeons in China is quite long. Historical records record that from the Qin Dynasty to the court of the Qin Dynasty, until the Tang and Song dynasties, carrier pigeons played a huge and irreplaceable role as a tool for communication.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the carrier pigeon has been widely used in military and civilian, the carrier pigeon can quickly communicate with each other, so the private rich gentry have raised carrier pigeons.
Sun Fang was once the head of the guard of Shijiazhai Fort, and Sun Fang was also responsible for taking care of the carrier pigeons in Shi Dayong's house.
Some time ago, Sun Fang said that Sun Fang had no one to take care of him in Huluyan, so he and several other family members passed the time by feeding pigeons and training pigeons.
A few days ago, Feng Jian heard that Sun Fang and several people were training pigeons, and immediately took the time to find Sun Fang, saying that the cottage was entangled in various things and neglected a few of them, and asked a few people to understand.
Sun Fang sneered in his heart, he understood that Feng Jian would not come to apologize to him, he must have come with a request, and the matter of training carrier pigeons with several family brothers must have reached his ears, and he must have come for carrier pigeons.
Feng Jian chatted with Sun Fang for a few words, and the topic naturally talked about raising and training carrier pigeons.
Sun Fang had already negotiated with a few family members who came with him, as long as Huluyan needed the carrier pigeons they trained, he would transfer the carrier pigeons to Huluyan, and take the opportunity to win the satisfaction of Feng Jian and other Huluyan high-level officials.
Therefore, as soon as Feng Jian mentioned the matter of carrier pigeons, Sun Fang and several people immediately expressed their willingness to dedicate their domesticated carrier pigeons to Huluyan Cottage, and were willing to work with several brothers to raise and train carrier pigeons for Huluyan.
Of course, Feng Jian is very happy, to know that in this era, the ability of carrier pigeons to quickly transmit messages is irreplaceable, and the breeding and training of carrier pigeons is undoubtedly highly valued.
If you start to establish a carrier pigeon breeding base in Huluyan from now on, try to raise carrier pigeons on a large scale, whether it is military or agricultural, just from the message transmission is the rest of the peaks of Daze Mountain can not be compared.
However, how to train carrier pigeons is very knowledgeable, and these Feng Jian breeding methods are not understood at all.
Discuss with Sun Fang the method of raising carrier pigeons, Sun Fang does not hide his selfishness, such as the pigeon loft environment must be quiet, ventilated and sunny; Training must be persistent, and flying must be regular; The "affinity" of the human pigeon cultivates the obedient surname of the carrier pigeon; The carrier pigeon should be paired in time to prevent it from being lost; Keep carrier pigeon feathers clean, etc.
Sun Fang said the first thing, but Feng Jian would not raise carrier pigeons, so he didn't have the patience to listen to it, and stopped him in time.
Although Feng Jian doesn't like Sun Fang's slippery, he still needs Sun Fang to raise pigeons.
Feng Jian then told Sun Fang that he was going to set up a pigeon breeding farm in Huluyan, and asked him and several family members from the Shi family to take charge of it.
Feng Jian is a typical example of taking other people's things and giving them to others, and doing his own favors.
Although Sun Fang knew that Huluyan needed carrier pigeons, he and several family brothers would never be buried. But now a few people are under the low eaves, and although they are aggrieved, they can only pinch their noses and agree.
Now that he has finally been accepted by Feng Jian by raising carrier pigeons, he and several family brothers will be assigned to the same fields as the Huluyan Zhuang people in the future, and they also have the right to participate in the selection of soldiers in the Huluyan Zhenshan Battalion, so the dissatisfaction and complaints in his heart during this time have dissipated a lot invisibly.
The second day, Feng Jian convened a meeting in the Huluyan Hall, announcing the establishment of the Huluyan pigeon training farm, led by Sun Fang and several family members of the Shi family to be responsible for management, and the cottage will select some people to follow Sun Fang to learn to feed pigeons.
Sun Fang and several other main persons in charge of the pigeon training farm were treated the same as the soldiers of the Zhenshan Battalion, and even those apprentices who followed and learned to train pigeons were rewarded with a stone of grain every year, and each time a work point was recorded.
Although Sun Fang is slippery but absolutely aware of current affairs, he is aware of Feng Jian's attention to the carrier pigeon, the carrier pigeon is transmitted to and from important information, since the commander gives himself the opportunity to play his strengths, he must recognize the situation and raise the carrier pigeon well, and quickly form the ability to transmit the information of the carrier pigeon, so as to live up to his duties.
……
After Sun Fang finished greeting Su Su, Feng Jian asked, "Old Sun, but the news has been sent back from Jiao Jiao'er under the mountain?" ”
Sun Fang hurriedly complimented: "The commander is like a god, and the carrier pigeon has just brought back the news from the bottom of the mountain, and the villain immediately rushed to report it." ”
Feng Jian said: "Take the information and take a look." ”
"Obedience"
Sun Fang quickly handed the oil-paper letter rolled into a roll in his hand to Feng Jian.
Feng Jian took it and asked casually, "What news is it talking about in the intelligence?" ”
Sun Fang was taken aback and hurriedly said, "The letters are all sealed, and the villain doesn't dare to look at them." ”
"Hmm," Feng Jian was noncommittal.
He quickly read a few sentences on the information, turned his head and said to Su Su, who was bowing his head and sorting out the paperwork: "Haha, Su'er, good news!" ”
Seeing Su Suming looking at him suspiciously, Feng Jian continued: "Your father-killing enemy, the Great Commander of Mill Cone Mountain, Mill Cone Tiger, has been poisoned to death. Jiao Gang'er said that because the thieves of Mocone Mountain began to kill each other in order to compete for the commander, many old and young people are fleeing from Mocone Mountain. ”
Su Su's tears immediately welled up, she clenched her teeth, and said: "It's a good death, but it's a pity that I can't avenge my father's attack on Huluyan with my own hands." As he spoke, tears fell uncontrollably.
Feng Jian hurriedly said: "Don't be sad, we should be happy that the grinding cone tiger died of poison!" As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and gently wiped his tears for Su Su.
Su Su saw Feng Jian anxious and clumsy with tears in his eyes, only to feel that his heart was surrounded by a warm current, and he said in his mouth: "Who is sad, the evil thief of the grinding cone tiger is dead, I am too late to be happy!"
Suddenly, he laughed out loud and said, "You look stupid!" ”
Suddenly woke up, there was still a Sun Fang standing aside in the house, his face suddenly turned red, and he stomped his feet and turned around and ran out of the house.
The girl's mind was really hard to guess, Feng Jian was confused, he scratched his head and asked blankly, "Su'er, what are you going to do?" ”
A crisp voice came from outside the house: "Go and tell the other victims' families about the death of the Mill Cone Tiger!" ”
Feng Jian suddenly put his mind at ease, turned his head and greeted Sun Fang: "Old Sun, don't stand, there is a way that it is difficult to serve customers!" Sit down and talk. ”
Sun Fang watched the two flirting and scolding in a daze, and waited until Feng Jian greeted him before coughing embarrassedly: "Cough, commander, the grinding cone tiger died of poison, this is really happy!" ”
While talking, he peeked at Feng Jian's expression, he knew that Feng Jian didn't have a good impression of himself, but he encountered flirting between the two again, would it make Feng Jian unhappy?
Feng Jian didn't seem to notice Sun Fang's embarrassment, and said in a praising tone: "This commander is not only happy that the mountain Jiao Gang has found out the intelligence, but also for Lao Sun, your pigeon training farm, and in just a few days, your carrier pigeons have begun to make contributions to the cottage!" It used to take half a day to send back the news of the cottage, but now it takes at most an hour! ”
Saying that, he patted Sun Fang on the shoulder, and then said: "In the future, there will inevitably be more places where the cottage will use carrier pigeons, and the commander will not let the people who have contributed to the cottage suffer. ”
Sun Fang's mood was surging when he was praised, and his chest stood up unconsciously.
Seeing Feng Jian looking at him with a smile, he immediately bent down and said, "Commander Xie!" This is all the work of the commander, and the villain is just doing his best. The villain here promises that as long as there is a foothold for carrier pigeons in the future, the transmission of information will not be delayed. ”
Feng Jian said: "As a carrier of intelligence, carrier pigeons are very important to Huluyan, and you must pay close attention to it!" ”
Feng Jian changed the topic and said: "It's a pity that the Zhenshan Battalion has not yet been trained into an army, and seeing the civil strife in the Mill Cone Mountain, it can't take the opportunity to gain benefits, and seeing that it has lost a great opportunity to exterminate the Mill Cone Mountain!" ”
Sun Fang bent down slightly and flattered: "To deal with the clown jumping off the beam in the Mill Cone Mountain, why wait until the Earthquake Mountain Camp strikes a thunderous blow, if there is a team of elite soldiers in Huluyan who do not collect soldiers at night, just send them out and take advantage of the chaos to kill the Mill Cone Mountain, which can cause the group of thieves in the Mill Cone Mountain to collapse!" ”
"Haha! Lao Sun, your cowhide is a little big, and a small number of elite people will not be able to kill the grinding cone mountain. However, with carrier pigeons to transmit information, we have more opportunities to kill thieves in the Zhenshan Camp, Lao Sun, you have to believe that as long as the training of the Zhenshan Camp is completed, in this Daze Mountain, the Huluyan people and horses can go sideways, and any bandit who dares to provoke will only be defeated and flee. ”
Sun Fangtou nodded quickly: "The villain believes, 10,000 believes!" These commanders asked the villain to help teach the bird soldiers of the Zhenshan Battalion, in the Zhenshan Battalion, the villain will feel the changes of the Zhenshan Battalion soldiers every day, and they are transforming from a group of Zhuang men into real soldiers. The villain thinks that formally trained soldiers and ordinary bandits cannot be compared at all, so it is not an exaggeration to say that the formation of the Zhenshan Battalion is when we Huluyan dominates Daze Mountain! ”
Sun Fang's slightly exaggerated words made Feng Jian feel comfortable: "Old Sun has really worked hard for you, and you have to train carrier pigeons and train the birds of the Zhenshan Battalion." At this stage, there are no bird guns in the cottage to equip soldiers, and the training of bird guns only depends on the capture of the two bird guns of the historian, which is really hard for you. ”
Sun Fang bent down and said modestly: "It's not hard at all, as long as the commander is willing to let the villain serve, the villain is willing to work for the commander!" ”
Feng Jian patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, everything was silent!
