Chapter Ninety-Six: Sweeping the Tail
The dart masters in southern Anhui were invited by Zhao Yun to coach the people of Shi Foshan, and Shi Foshan is basically Zhao Yun's men and horses now, but the strength is too poor. Except for the marksmanship after being fed with a large number of bullets, it is okay, and there is no other ability.
Zhao Yun used them as a guard, according to the current market development of Yixing, it will definitely be delivered and received in the future, this does not have a reassuring escort team, how can it be?
After giving Zhao Yun some gifts to Wu Xiaoya, the leading musketeer received Wang Yougui, who had been waiting for a long time.
Wang Yougui had already come to Zhou Village and visited the injured Wu Xiaoya, but because he shouted "brother and sister", he was almost blasted out by the thin-skinned Wu Xiaoya.
Hearing this, Zhao Yun had a letter to himself, and immediately came.
"Captain Wang, you have worked hard!" The musketeer received Wang Yougui, this time this Captain Wang is quite interesting, he can hit Pan Datou from the flank, which can be regarded as supporting the battle of Zhou Village, Zhao Yun also understands this friendship, and deliberately wrote a handwritten letter with words comparable to that of a primary school student.
"It's not hard. It's not hard! You came this time, my brother, that is, your boss, did you have any instructions? Wang Yougui read the letter, the letter was full of praise and thanks, but there was no real thing, and he saw that there were many strong dart masters in the village this time, and many of them were also famous people, so he asked excitedly.
"Yes! Our boss said that if you don't mind, the three of us can train together! The musketeer said, and then explained some of the things about the training.
Wang Yougui is not very good at training, listening to him is very good, and he was sent by Zhao Yun, it is expected that there must be two brushes, and the musketeer will be in charge.
"There is another thing, my godfather is still in the prison of Xuancheng, and at present, I am surrounded by spies, and it is really inconvenient to move, and please ask your master to help, I am definitely grateful!" Wang Yougui is very interested in his godfather now.
A small part of his current subordinates are because of Wang Yougui's military salary, and they are temporarily looking for a place to stay, most of them are for the sake of his godfather's face, otherwise how could he, the second ancestor, command such a large group of veteran soldiers!
When Zhao Yun first met someone who knew the details of the mutiny after coming to Yixing, he naturally wanted to ask clearly, "What's wrong with Old Man Deng?" ”
"My godfather has been detained in Xuancheng Prison, and I heard that he is still on a hunger strike." Wang Yougui is really counting on his godfather now, and he wiped his eyes when he said this.
"I've heard about this too! What the hell is going on? The old general's health is good, but if the water and rice don't enter for a few days, he won't last long! When Zhao Yun heard the details, he immediately accused the musketeers and talked to Wang Yougui.
"He was arrested by his own student Zhang Hu and the captain of the personal guard Cao Renhua, but fortunately he was saved by several of his other students, first he was placed under house arrest, but his godfather's temper, how could he admit defeat, he scolded every day, and then he was thrown into prison." Wang Yougui said helplessly, the tree is falling and scattered, and it is very good to have someone come forward.
This Wang Yougui was stared at to death, and an insider informed him that he would be arrested as soon as he entered the gate of Xuancheng, so this guy didn't go to the rescue.
Regarding Wang Yougui's question, Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, and still said to the musketeer, "Then do you want to find someone to talk to his old man, but the most important thing is where to put him after rescuing him?" Once rescued, it will definitely be a big mess, are you safe there? Zhao Yun didn't know if the monk could "convince" this old-fashioned old man Deng, so he could only try first.
"Really? Are you ready to help? When Wang Yougui heard that there was a play, he almost jumped up with joy, "The resettlement location is still Zhoucun!" ”
"Yes, this was arranged before the master came, and I will convey your request to the master!" The musketeer's muffled voice replied.
After receiving a positive reply to speak for him, Wang Yougui was relieved.
The truckloads of things transported this time were military uniforms, and after arriving in Yixing, Zhao Yun was an official on a formal occasion, so Zhao Yun bought a suit for his escort team.
Because of the large number of people in Shifoshan, Zhao Yun chose the military uniform of the Beiyang Army, which is the most popular military uniform in this era, because it is ready-to-wear, so it is easier to get together.
Hats, military uniforms, cow belts, leggings, cloth shoes, this outfit made the people of Shifoshan feel a lot more energetic immediately after changing into them.
Because Pan Datou's militia is not a serious army, there are few people who are neatly dressed, and now the people of Shifoshan are dressed neatly, but Pan Datou's team is like mountain bandits, and the people and horses of Shifoshan are like an army.
"Stand upright!" When the people of Shifoshan finished dressing, all the musketeers suddenly shouted neatly, and the people around them were startled, but then they looked at the musketeers idly, and did not act, but pointed and laughed.
"Next, pay homage to the dead!" The musketeers didn't care what they were doing, and they proceeded step by step according to the instructions given by Zhao Yun before they set off.
Hearing the worship of the dead, the crowd slowly quieted down, and in this battle, the people and horses of Shifoshan broke a lot.
At the same time, this armed conflict is Zhao Yun's biggest loss in Langxi, and since he came here, except for those who died in the hands of Lao Maozi, he has hung up the most this time.
Although the later shelling of the bandits was regarded as revenge for them. However, in addition to the losses of Zhao Yun's men, Wu Xiaoya's losses were not small, and there were also hundreds of casualties, including more than 100 killed. These are not puppets from the camp, but living people.
Because Zhao Yun has done propaganda and demonstrations before, as long as he does not die on the spot, he will basically not hang up if he is dragged to the monks, this belief has been popularized to Wu Xiaoya and Wang Yougui's team, this time it is more than 100 people who are hanging, and the others are missing arms and legs, they must find their arms and legs back, and then find monks to pick them up and drag them to the ward to recuperate quietly. This wound is easy to heal under the hands of the monks, but the blood that has been shed is their own, and they can't make up for it for a while, so they have to recuperate on their own!
Now, the first thing they do when they put on their formal attire is to announce the contents of the bereavement.
Those who died belonged to the local people, and they all let the families pack up and go home, of course, Zhao Yun will not end like this.
It is also expressed, after all, they are now in the form of escorts, although I don't know if this name is still useful after changing the warlord, but Zhao Yun knows that this must be done, otherwise these people's hearts will immediately disperse.
The musketeers were given a thousand catties of food to each family, and a sign from the camp, as long as they had something to say hello in the future, the people of the cottage would never let those families without a backbone be bullied!
And according to the situation of each family, you can also come to the cottage every month to receive some subsidies.
As for those who were exiled here and were taken up the mountain to join the group, due to the weather and the road, it was impossible to transport them back thousands of miles, and they were all buried in the form of ashes and clothes in a beautiful place in Shifo Mountain. The relics of the deceased, such as daily necessities, belong to their families, and those who do not receive them are buried together. If someone comes to claim it in the future, the pension will be given to their relatives.
There are also the same burial of the dead war horses, this is to imitate the practice of the Ming Dynasty Qi family army, here is not far from Zhejiang, most of the Qi family army are Yiwu people, so there is little difference with the customs here, after the death of the war horse, can only be buried, not allowed to peel and eat, buried together with their masters, and set up another grave next to the master. The cavalry is the combination of horses and people, and the war horse is the knight's closest companion, although it cannot be spoken, but it is born and died together, and it is absolutely qualified to be buried!
And they, like the knights, are also in the Shrine of Loyalty, setting up a spirit card to worship next to their master.
Zhao Yun's move is to set rules for the future, and the scale of cavalry in the future is certain, and with this model, there will be a code of conduct in the future.
This Loyal Shrine and generous pensions make the hearts of the surviving people warm, this is the era of warlord melee, how can a dead soldier give a thousand catties of food, those overseers care most about their money bags, which time to take the soldiers seriously!
With this bereavement criterion, Wu Xiaoya suddenly felt that the subordinates around her suddenly had a sense of belonging.
Wang Yougui, who was watching the ceremony from the sidelines, was full of praise, and scolded Zhao Yun in his heart, "Loser!" Loser, although Lao Tzu was also a loser before, but compared to your kid's hand, it's really a big deal! A thousand pounds! In the first year of this year, one acre of land can produce 300 catties of grain is a fertile field, and it has to catch up with the year when the wind and rain are good, and this one must be the annual output of four acres of land! This time, more than a dozen of Yao Village's own subordinates died, so it would take dozens of acres of land to output, how can this be calculated? His own men are watching here! Unequal pay for equal work, but something is going to be a big problem! Looking at the sighs of his subordinates around him, Wang Yougui couldn't wait to flee from here immediately.
Wang Yougui's team came to study, and Zhao Yun didn't care about the military salary, but he fed them every day, practiced well, and gave them some rewards.
What does it mean to practice well? That Bibi knows, as the so-called, Wen Wu is the first and there is no second, for fighters, you can know the effectiveness of their training with your fists.
At the beginning of the first day of training, there were musketeers to guard, and the men and horses of Shifoshan and Wang Yougui's militia all joined the training in Zhou Village.
One morning, at least half of Wang Yougui's militia took sick leave, and the people in Shifoshan were in good spirits.
At noon, at lunchtime, those who asked for sick leave were all cured and appeared in front of the canteen on time.
