Chapter 200: The Qing Army Enters the Kou

When returning from Shunxiang Fort, on the way, Wang Dou said to Zhang Gui beside him: "Lao Zhang, what do you think of the resettlement of these displaced people?" ”

Zhang Gui had already thought deeply about this question, and after listening to Wang Dou's inquiry, he hurriedly said: "My lord, Shunbao, Wubao, Zhangjiabao, and all parts of the state city, most of the fields that can be cultivated are cultivated.

But now with Wang Dou's words, there are tens of thousands of displaced people, dozens of tunzhuang under his management, and the jurisdiction has been expanded to the entire south of Baoanzhou, although it is expected that the affairs are complicated and hard, but this is also a good opportunity, if it is good, the garrison will pay more attention to himself. Fastest updates

He said solemnly: "Your Excellency, rest assured, the lower officials will keep the affairs of Tuntian in order and not let your adults worry." Wang Dou nodded slowly.

In the days of the following month, the security guards called all parts of the country busy, and after more than 40,000 displaced people arrived in Bao'an Prefecture, all of them were turned into military households, registered for them, and sent them to their homes. After eating and drinking every day, and seeing the life of military households in Shunxiang Fort and various parts of the state city, these homeless people all looked calm when they were turned into military households, and even many of them were extremely happy.

All the young men among them were registered, and 5,000 men were selected from among them, and they were immediately organized into a new army and began to train. The rest of the new military families were resettled in various cantonment sites, and the orphaned children among them were also sent to orphanage camps as early as possible, where they could read and write, and live in groups. The craftsmen and others in them were all selected to enter the various factories and mines. Many people were also arranged to go to clothing factories, iron factories, livestock farms, and other places, and the resettlement of new military households was carried out in an orderly manner.

The establishment of a new tuntian site requires a large number of literate scribes, and according to the calculation of five officials in each tuntian, at least 200 clerks are needed for dozens of tuntians. There were so many scribes that they could only be selected from among the local scholars. The scribes are decent jobs, and Wang Dou also gives them a stone of rice every month to support their families, so that everyone can have no worries about food and clothing, not to mention that many local shabby literati in Baoan Prefecture are scrambling to apply, and many local squires are also excited.

The hiring of scribes was presided over by Zhang Gui, the official of Guan Tun, and Feng Dachang, the commander of the order, and when selecting the scribes, they were very cautious, and their ability was one of them, and the other was their inclination and attitude towards the garrison. Regardless of the military, government and civil affairs, at present, Wang Dou's subordinates are closely linked to Wang Dou's interests, and no one will allow people in the system who disagree with them.

In fact, since Wang Dou began to rise in the seventh year of Chongdi, until now his influence has spread to the entire Baoan Prefecture, Wang Dou has not violated the interests of the local landlords and squires.

In mid-August, Zhong Dayong, a new homeless military household named Long Kun, who was in charge of the tun in Langwa Tunbao of the Black Mountain Temple, inadvertently mentioned that a wonderful method of raising chickens in his hometown was to use the pasture to raise chickens.

After listening to what he said, Zhong Dayong realized that this was his opportunity, and hurriedly reported to Zhang Gui, the official in charge of the tun, and Zhang Gui hurriedly reported to Wang Dou. Wang Dou realized that this might be a good opportunity to solve the supply of meat for the military and civilians in the territory, so he urgently recruited Zhong Dayong to talk to Long Qi.

According to Long Kun's method, the south of Baoan Prefecture is mountainous, and in the mountains and hills, there are as many pastures as possible, and these pastures, due to drought, cannot be used for farming, and it is not suitable for raising cattle and sheep. However, it is the best to raise chickens, the grassland is vast, and it is difficult to raise chickens on a large scale, and it will not cause damage to the grassland.

Baoan Prefecture has abundant sunshine and suitable temperature, and there are many insects, grass seeds, young leaves and other things in the pasture, which are good food for chickens and birds. With these vast pastures, the food consumed by raising chickens and poultry on weekdays accounts for only about 20% of the food raised on weekdays.

Moreover, raising chickens and poultry takes only a few months a year, and can be carried out in a few months with sufficient precipitation, which can be said to have a great advantage compared to the vicious circle of raising cattle and sheep such as "spring thinness, summer fat, and winter fat".

Not only that, but there are not many people needed to raise chickens and birds, and there is no need for young and strong, and women and the old and weak can do it. According to him, it is a middle-aged woman, and it is easy for each person to raise hundreds or thousands of chickens.

The manure discharged by the chickens and poultry can be used to fertilize the pasture, and the same can be collected to fertilize the field, Long Kun proposed to collect the maggots from the manure of humans and animals as feed for raising chickens and birds, which can greatly speed up the fattening rate of chickens and birds.

After listening to Long Kun's words, Wang Dou couldn't help but feel excited, and next to the Shunxiangbao pig farm, there was a chicken farm and a duck farm, and there were only hundreds of chickens and ducks in each. Wang Dou fantasized that if there were tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of chickens, so many chickens, and eggs laid in Bao'an Prefecture......

Wang Dou glanced at Long Kun, this fat middle-aged man stood stiffly at this time, he said that he was from Leping County, Shanxi, and had set up a chicken farm in his hometown, which was to use the grassland to raise chickens. Hearing the news, Wang Douxing rushed to Shunxiang Fort to watch.

Sure enough, in the warehouse of Shunxiang Fort, there are wheelbarrows and carriages, these military chariots are thick and durable, there are special holes on one side of the chariot, and the protective plate made of hardwood can be inserted in wartime, and it is surrounded by a stack in the wilderness, which will definitely give the greatest protection to the sergeants inside. Moreover, there is a lifelike lion-headed beast pattern painted on the outside of the card, which will definitely startle the enemy horses of those Qing soldiers.

Not only that, Shunxiangbao Wood Factory also built several Yuan Rong cars and pole cars. With the Yuan Rong car, the commander and general are high on the car, which is not only advantageous for protection, but also clear about the surrounding battle situation between the enemy and us. The lookout pole is more than ten meters high, and the sergeant stands on the bucket and looks out, that is, a few miles around, and if there is an enemy coming within a dozen miles, he can also see it clearly.

Looking at these chariots, Wang Doufei was overjoyed, and the officials and generals beside him were also grinning.

Wu Liangheng, the manager of the carpentry factory, stood in the crowd and said proudly: "My lord, a wheelbarrow can carry two stones of grain and rice, and a horse-drawn cart can carry six stones of grain and rice. Two hundred and seventy wheelbarrows and two hundred and thirty horse-drawn carriages can carry nearly 2,000 stones of grain and grass at a time. ”

Listening to Wu Liangheng's introduction, the generals were even more itchy, and Han Zhong said loudly: "My lord, give these vehicles and equipment to the brothers, you can promise, every thousand general baggage team has fifty wheelbarrows and forty carriages." ”

Seeing his younger brother's open-mouthed appearance, Han Chao was about to scold, Wang Dou smiled and said, "You kid, you are just anxious." ”

He said: "The vehicles and equipment of the Thousand General Baggage Team and the Battalion Headquarters Baggage Team, you all go to Qi Tianliang to ask for it, this guy is now the manager of the military depot." ”

After jointly managing the warehouses of Shunxiang Fort with Lin Daofu, Qi Tianliang is now mainly responsible for the army's materials! After listening to Wang Dou's words, everyone soon flocked to Qi Tianliang.

Wang Dou also watched the artillery drill of Zhao Yi at the Shunxiang Fort Artillery Training Ground, and at present, hundreds of people from the 1,000 general artillery teams and battalion artillery teams of the security army are all under the unified training of Zhao Yi, and a large number of artillery pieces from the state city and various forts are gathered on the training ground, and the cannon roars here every day.

In the past six months, Zhao has basically solved the problem of artillery ruler and ranging. After Wang Dou's proposal, he escaped from the more than 200 gunners in the artillery team and trained them strictly, and used these gunners to measure and observe, and commanded the remaining gunners to fire a salvo bombardment, and sure enough, the shots were more accurate and more powerful.

Seeing Zhao Yi's training results, Wang Dou was quite satisfied, needless to say, the artillery team was also divided by the battalion headquarters and each thousand.

At the beginning of the year, Wang Dou asked Li Guangheng to train and be in charge of the affairs of the cavalry, because he selected all the veterans of each team, eliminating the need for the cavalry to practice the art of footwork, and the cavalry training was quite fast. Although it is still impossible to control the war horse to charge into battle, but the horse is like flying, and there is no problem with the technique of riding a horse and the skill of matching the battle array. In the middle of the year, when suppressing bandits, Wang Dou asked Li Guangheng to attack several times, and the results were also satisfactory.

At the beginning of September of the 11th year of Chongzhen, Wang Dou recruited all the soldiers of the battalion and held a large-scale military exercise in Shunxiang Fort, and the results of the exercise were gratifying.

During the exercise, Zhao Yi proposed to Wang Dou that the artillery be placed in the military formation, and Wang Dou was also very interested in trying it. Unexpectedly, the sergeant reacted that this move put great psychological pressure on them, and they were very worried that the artillery would hit their backs and heads, and at this time, the main power of the Wolf machine artillery was scattered bullets, and the scattered bullets could not be fired in the military formation. Under the overwhelming emotion, Zhao had no choice but to give up this idea in frustration.

Despite this episode, Wang Dou is still satisfied with his military achievements, and he is ready for everything and is waiting for this year's war.

On September 22, the eleventh year of Chongzhen, there was a calm inside and outside Baoanzhou, and Wang Dou stared at the starry sky that night, and his mood could not be calm for a long time.

If history remains unchanged, just today, 100,000 Qing soldiers have entered Kou Daming, all the way to Dolgon's leadership, by! $ lock the mountain pass and destroy the wall to enter. One route was led by Yue Tuo, "Entering from the destruction of the Miyun Wall Ziling, the Ming Dynasty will be full of wolf smoke and devastation.

I don't know what awaits me in this war?
