149 It is called the heavenly army
Many things are full of freshness for the Fugu Peasant Army.
For example, Hu Guang is a person, such a leader has never been seen. His words are so exciting.
For example, the four elementary schools taught by Hu Guang did not write with a brush, but a thing called a quill pen. And the words written on the paper don't seem to be the words I've seen before, and there are even very strange symbols.
For example, right now, Hu Guang is using white things on stage to write symbols on a pitch-black board. He was alone in front of more than a thousand people, and he was actually in class.
Although I have never eaten pork, I have at least seen pigs run. The previous gentleman was not like this, it was a hand-to-hand, one-on-one teaching.
"Okay, that's all for pinyin. As long as you learn to master this pinyin, then you will be able to read all the Chinese characters by yourself. ”
Hu Guang put down the rough chalk that he had made in a hurry, clapped his hands, and continued in front of the more than 1,000 people in the audience: "The so-called master leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual. In the future, this pinyin will depend on your own efforts, look at the pinyin textbooks you have at hand, discuss more with others, use more snacks, this is the only way to learn. ”
Almost all of them are black lines at one end. That's it? I know the things printed on this piece of paper in my hand, but it doesn't know me!
Their eyes looked at Hu Guang, then at the piece of paper, and then turned their heads to look at the four children standing on both sides of the stage, scratching their heads, muttering in their hearts Could it be that Hu Guang meant, is he going to ask these four little children for advice? Oh no, it's a discussion?
"The people who came back from Yan'an Mansion have basically learned it once first, you can discuss with them first and give them some advice. In addition, I will give another lecture every three days, mainly to answer questions, and you can ask me questions that you can't answer. Half a month later, I will only give lectures once a month. ”
Hu Guang's words made many people breathe a sigh of relief, and finally Hu Guang could still give a lecture again. However, they can also understand that Hu Guang must be very busy and can't have much time to teach this.
Of course, there are also people in the crowd who have such questions, even if they can read and write, how will it help to fight the war with the government, will Hu Guang put the cart before the horse?
For the promotion of this pinyin literacy at the moment, basically no one realizes the importance of this thing. It was not until later historians reviewed that many benefits were summed up.
For example, the things promoted by Hu Guang no longer need to be passed on by word of mouth, which is not only faster, but also more accurate.
For example, the content fed back to Hu Guang from the bottom is also easier to express, which invisibly mobilizes everyone's enthusiasm.
For example, literate people can do more and do more well.
……
Anyway, a principle, this pinyin literacy is better than later, the role is to moisten things silently, it seems to be of little use, in fact, it has played a key role in improving the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the Fugu peasant army.
In the days that followed, these were slowly manifested, and they were also one of the things that the Fugu peasant army was most proud of distinguishing from all other forces.
Besides, after Hu Guang finished his lecture, he loudly announced the start of the reorganization: "All people will be organized according to the pattern of squads, platoons, companies, battalions, and regiments. Among them, the class is the former Shi, with a total of ten to eleven people, and the leader is the squad leader, that is, the former Shi Chang......"
The reason why Hu Guang did not use the system used in the late Ming Dynasty was because, first, he was most familiar with the military system of later generations.
Second, if you want to stand out from the various forces in the late Ming Dynasty, you must take an unconventional path. For later generations, it was an inevitable choice for the army to be as firearms as possible.
He also saw from Qi Jiguang's "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" that the principle of army establishment should be formulated according to the style of fighting. Just like the Qi family's army, the original establishment was different from the establishment of other armies in the same period, but Qi Jiguang was based on the three-talent array and the mandarin duck array according to the form of the enemy at that time.
At this time, Hu Guang was going to use firearms, a squad of ten people, and three squads were a platoon, which happened to be the basis for three-stage shooting, which was in line with the principle of Qi Jiguang's establishment.
As for the name or something, anyway, it was the first time for a team that was mostly peasants. And different names are also a sign that distinguishes other forces.
The adaptation he announced is roughly as follows.
The young men selected the strong ones and organized them into a battalion, with a total of 270 people, Hu Kuan as the battalion commander, and the platoon commander and company commander as Hu Guang's original bodyguard. As for the squad leader, it is chosen by the soldiers themselves.
The rest of the young men numbered about 120 or so, and they were organized into a reinforced company, with Hu Hansan as the company commander and directly responsible to the leader, Hu Guang.
All women are also organized into a battalion, which is commanded by Ulan. The most able-bodied of them formed a separate company, the commander of which was Liu Cai'e, and was also required for military training.
In addition, women and a small number of elderly people are mixed and grouped, and according to the establishment of the company, there is a nursing company, that is, women and elderly people who are patient and can take care of people. Most of the women who care for the sick and wounded are married.
There is also a food company, which is responsible for everyone's food, and in layman's terms, it is cooking.
Others were assigned to a logistics company and did some chores.
As for all children, excluding the four elementary schools, they are formed into a children's camp, which is not divided into companies and platoons, and the battalion leader is Yaya. For the time being, they have only one task, which is to learn.
In addition, there is one of the most important battalions, the artisan battalion. Blacksmith Zhang served as the battalion commander and was directly responsible to Hu Guang. It is divided into blacksmiths, carpenters, farming companies, and so on.
After Hu Guangzhi explained, he asked the battalion commanders to take the list, and then said loudly: "This is just an initial arrangement, if someone feels that their strengths have not been brought into play, they can propose it to me, and after obtaining approval, they can change places." ”
All of these are new things for these low-level peasants, and they can't say one, two, or three for the time being. As a result, the square appears a bit quiet.
"In the past, we, the poor people, were oppressed by the government and evil slaves, and we were told that the heavens should not be right, and the earth was not spiritual, which can be described as unspeakably miserable."
Hearing Hu Guang suddenly mention this, many people recalled the past and couldn't help but feel a little gloomy.
"But now it's different, we're a big family. I hope that we can twist into a rope and fight against all the forces that bully and oppress us in this cannibalistic world! ”
When Hu Guang said this, he paused slightly, took a deep breath, and roared out in his loudest voice: "We want to impress the world, our goal is to call Tiantianying and the earth spirit!" ”
"Therefore I declare that we shall henceforth be called the Celestial Army. It is called the heavenly response, and the one who is called the spirit of the earth is called the heavenly army! ”
