Chapter 201: Guerrilla General
September 28, 11th year of Chongzhen, afternoon. After receiving Lu Xiangsheng's summons, Wang Dou did not dare to slack off, led a small team of guards, and rode his horse towards the acropolis.
It was only thirty miles from Baoanzhou City to the Acropolis, and Wang Dou rode his horse and galloped down, and soon arrived at the foot of the Acropolis.
A huge temporary camp had been set up along the southeast side of the city, and many banners were hunting. Although it is coarsely and coarsely, the strong aura of slaughter still makes people's hearts flutter.
The people walking in the camp are mostly people in helmets and armor, and the three-feed cavalry led by Lu Xiangsheng goes first, most of them are the main barracks of the general soldiers and the strange barracks of the deputy general soldiers, and the cavalry is the majority. Fastest updates
The sergeants and cavalry of the Ming Dynasty were all armored, and looking at the camp, there was a sea of red and yellow armor. In fact, the paint on the armor was learned by the Qing soldiers from the Ming army. When you come to the Ming Dynasty, you will be very familiar with the armor of the Qing soldiers and the Ming army, except for the high lightning rod on the top, most of the two are plackets.
Outside the gate, Xie Yi and other guards were stopped by the gate guards, but it was Lu Xiangsheng's personal general Chen Tuo who came to recruit Wang Dou this time, so Xie Yike and others were left outside, and Wang Dou and Chen An entered the camp. Eye-catching iron armor, cotton armor, leather armor, no one is wearing armor, a red color that supports the eyes, although many people look tired, or sit or lie down to rest, many people are also wearing old clothes, but at least that momentum, compared with them, the guards everywhere are not at the same level at all.
Wang Dou saw that these unruly sergeants were all well-behaved, the camp was scattered but not chaotic, and the inner and outer camps were clearly divided, and he couldn't help but secretly admire Lu Xiangsheng's ability to lead troops and govern the army. This is also the first time he has seen the scale of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, calculating that these are professional soldiers, taking pay to kill the enemy, when it comes to personal skills, it must not be simple.
Soon, Wang Dou came to Lu Xiangsheng's big tent, and a large Chinese army basket fluttered high, with a huge "Lu" character written on it.
In front of the big tent, there were tall and strong guards in iron armor, their bodies standing straight and motionless. Presumably, these people are all the guards of Lu Xiangsheng's standard camp. When he arrived here, Chen Toshi Wang Dou said: "Brother Wang, you stay here for a while, and I will report to Lord Lu." Wang Dou hurriedly said: "There is General Lao Chen." ”
After Fen Chen'an entered, he looked at the majestic tent in front of him, and an inexplicable fluctuation appeared in his heart. Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said, "It's two hundred and eighty levels." ”
Yang Guozhu was slightly stunned, he had been in the army for a long time, and immediately understood the inside story, his sharp eyes swept to Wang Dou's whole body, and said, "Just Wang Dou, you said that you are just a garrison?" Wang Dou clasped his fists and saluted: "Back to the military gate, exactly." Yang Guozhu shook his head slowly: "It shouldn't be." After saying this, he said no more, and his expression seemed to be in deep thought.
Lu Xiangsheng stroked his forehead, he felt a little tired, after he stopped himself and came out, he went day and night, sometimes he was really tired, so he closed his eyes in the saddle. When he arrived at the Acropolis, he ordered to camp and rest, but the sergeant could rest, and as the commander-in-chief, he was worried about the enemy situation at the front, but he could not sleep. o bar. Dry. Yang Guozhu looked at him from the side, and said softly: "Governor, you are tired, you still rest Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand: "Don't hinder praise." He looked at Wang Dou: "Wang Dou, how many soldiers and horses do you have in your hands now?" Wang Dou said: "According to the instructions of the governor, the last general trained two thousand soldiers and horses, and in addition, there was a strong army such as Lu Xiangsheng and said: "In this way, you have three thousand soldiers in your hands." ”
He looked at Wang Dou, with a sense of anticipation in his eyes: "Wang Dou, if I let you go out to defend the army, how many soldiers and horses can you pick?" Wang Dou pondered for a moment and said, "Back to the governor, the last general should be able to pull out 3,000 soldiers."
Lu Xiangsheng was a little surprised: "Wang Dou, your total number is only 3,000 soldiers, all of them will go with you to fight "How to protect the state city?"
Wang Dou said: "The governor doesn't have to worry, among the three thousand soldiers, one thousand are strong, and one thousand soldiers are left to guard the state city, and the strength is enough." ”
Lu Xiangsheng nodded with satisfaction and sighed: "Dongnu has entered the Kou, and we, as subjects, are deeply favored by the country, and we can only repay the country with death."
He was very satisfied with Wang Dou's volunteering, and said with a smile on his face: "Wang Dou, I originally intended that you would hone in Baoan Prefecture for two years, and then promote you to Xuanwa guerrilla." Unexpectedly, Dongnu entered the prison, and the matter was sudden, and the matter had to be resigned. ”
He said: "I have guaranteed you to the Ministry of War as a guerrilla in Baozhou, although the courtiers are controversial, but the military situation is urgent, and there is this governor to protect the promotion, I expect that the official documents of the Ministry of War will be closed in a few days (). In these days, you should be prepared for the Tooth 1 sign. ”
At the beginning of Xuanfu Feeding City, there were four battalions of soldiers and men of Zheng, Qi, left and right, and during the Wanli period, the Ta Battalion and the Soldier Battalion were added, and it became six battalions. If Wang Dou's first battalion of guerrillas is added, Xuanfu is equal to seven battalions of soldiers.
Wang Dou was very happy in his heart, and thanked Lu Xiangsheng loudly for his cultivation and promotion. Yang Guozhu watched Wang Dou from the sidelines, listened to his questions and answers with Lu Xiangsheng, and finally Lu Xiangsheng promoted him to be the new guerrilla general in Xuanfu Town. Yang Guozhu was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect Wang Dou to be so appreciated by Lu Duchen. There was a look of surprise in his eyes, and he looked Wang Dou up and down.
After hesitating for a while, Wang Dou still asked: "After the last general was promoted to a guerrilla general, the food and salary equipment in the camp of the last general, as well as this horse infantry sergeant......
Promoted to the battalion soldiers, it is natural to have the treatment of the battalion soldiers, the Ming Dynasty battalion soldiers, with the highest salary of the family, there are two taels of silver per month and five cents, followed by the southern soldiers, the monthly salary of one or two and a half percent "plus five buckets of rice." The most common is the ordinary Northern Army, and there is one stone of rice and one tael of silver every month. In addition, the salary of the cavalry will also be higher, in addition to one tael and five cents of silver per month, there are twenty-four taels of grass beans and silver for war horses a year.
However, the proportion of infantry and cavalry in the battalion, in the towns of Daming, only the general army of the main barracks of 5,000 people, there can be 3,500 horse soldiers, and among the 3,000 people in the deputy general soldiers, there can be 2,000 cavalry soldiers, and the proportion of infantry and cavalry of the remaining guerrilla generals is mostly three steps and seven horses, and the most is not more than five or five.
It's just the current situation of Daming...... Although Wang Dou didn't expect Daming to give him much food, he still had to fight for it.
Listening to Wang Dou's words, Lu Xiangsheng's face was embarrassed, and he sighed heavily: "Wang Dou, the food and equipment of the guerrillas in your camp, this governor will find a way." ”$
Lao Bai Niu: Many book friends mention the problem of rice, but throughout this book, there is no mention that the protagonist's subordinates eat rice. At that time, wheat, sorghum, millet and the like were commonly cultivated in the north of the Ming Dynasty. Sorghum, millet millet and millet are all millet. Why do you think of rice when you think of rice? Millet is also a rice bar.
