Chapter 352: Reward and Punishment Establish Military Authority
readx;
"The table said that when is the easiest time to attack the Qianhu of Jinyi Wei stationed in Tianjin, since Wang Tong was in charge of this place, on the twenty-second day of the first month of the seventh year of Wanli, except for the training camp near the salt flat, the rest of the places are undefended, and even the official offices in the city are unmanned. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Twenty battalions, including horse teams, etc., almost 4,000 people are on the side of the training camp, the wind blows on the face, still like knives, on both sides of the wooden platform, there is a row of wooden stakes, and the wooden stakes are hung with blurred levels of flesh and blood, these people are all from Baojiazhuang, and all those who have been stained with the blood of the brocade guards have been beheaded to show the public.
"You died in the Ming Dynasty, you are martyrs of the Ming Dynasty, and the families of the martyrs are exempt from taxes. Lifelong support for Jinyiwei, children willing to serve in the army are given priority. ”
The heavy-faced soldier walked forward with the urn in his hand, handed the ashes to the family members who were crying there, and Wang Tong stood on the stage with his hands behind his back. Standing solemnly and looking at the audience.
The urn was handed over to the family, and the soldier who shouted looked back at Wang Tong, and when he saw Wang Tong nodding his head, he shouted loudly:
"Fifty taels of each for the war dead!!"
Weeping family members took the money. They were all stunned, the military families already had the fields of the guards, and Wang Tong said that after the tax exemption and exemption, they could already live a good life. Coupled with a pension of fifty taels of silver, the countryman's expenses are not much, and with this money, they can already live a very good life.
It is precisely because he is a child of a military family in the Weisuo that he knows how much silver Daming gave to burn and bury him in battle, and he deducted it from his family members at all levels, and he couldn't even afford to burn paper.
But now that the real fifty taels of silver are in their hands, they are all people who have been poor all their lives, and they may never have seen so much money.
Although their own flesh and blood are connected, some people have this idea at this moment, their son did not die in vain for Wang Qianhu, and his death was worth it.
In a hurry, they were full of emotion, some people directly cried loudly and knelt on the ground, kowtowing desperately in the direction of the wooden platform, Wang Tong waved his hand, and there were soldiers coming over on the side, or supporting, or persuading, and brought people down.
Wang Tong took a step forward and waved his hand, and the soldiers of the first battalion were holding the five flowers tied up. When the people came to the stage, Wang Tong glanced down coldly, and asked the generals in a loud voice:
"You have all memorized military law, and in military law, what is the crime of escaping from battle!?"
The audience was quiet for a while, and replied unevenly:
"Slash!"
Wang Tong frowned and shouted loudly:
"This official wine, meat, rice, and noodles are for you to eat and drink. Why is it so powerless to speak, be louder. What is the crime of escaping!? ”
"Slash!!" With a wave of his hand, the officers and soldiers of the first battalion had been staring at Wang Tong's movements, and when they saw Wang Tong's gesture, they all paused. Knock the deserter to the ground and slash it with a sword.
The heads of the five deserters fell to the ground, blood sprayed, except for Wang Tong and the generals of the Tan family, Ma Sanbiao, and Li Hutou, who did not move, there was some commotion in the field.
"You eat rations, receive pay, wear armor, and carry weapons, so that you may go into battle to slay the enemy. Defend the country and calm the chaos and public order. If you cower and flee, this is the end. This is military law, remember!? ”
"Remembered !!"
The people below responded loudly, Wang Tong took a breath, and said loudly:
"Deserters are treated as death row prisoners, and their families are not allowed to enjoy the treatment of military martyrs."
After this was said, the audience was silent, everyone was young and strong in the family, although there were brothers to support their parents, but after all, what was it, if he died, his parents and family would not get any subsidies, then he couldn't say anything. Military law is so strict, everyone is awe-inspiring.
The rest of the ceremony was a little more lighthearted. Wang Tong read out the names of the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions to the enemy, personally rewarded them, and gave them verbal encouragement.
The horse team was directly subordinate to Wang Tong, the first battalion was the strongest battalion, and it was definitely necessary to participate in the battle, and the fifth, seventh, and twelfth battalions were temporarily drawn.
Now watching the soldiers who have killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions receiving commendations on the stage, some have won silver rewards, and some have been promoted on the spot, everyone is very hot-eyed. ”
"Deserters should be killed, you did the right thing."
In a warm room. Yu Daxian said to Wang Tong in a deep voice, although Wang Tong was quite indifferent and calm when he was on stage, he closed the door when he returned home.
"What the boss taught is that I have watched the five deserters practice and chatted a few words, but I didn't expect it."
Wang Tong took the teapot and poured tea into the big vat for Yu Daxian, and said with a smile:
"It's really uncomfortable, presumably the people below are worried, so they ask the old man to come over and persuade them. Let the old man laugh. ”
"Whoever experiences this is also the general appearance, when the old man kills people online, it's not that he can't eat meat for a few days, it's good to see more, it's good to see more."
Hearing Wang Tong's ease, Yu Dasan also joked a few words, and then said in a solemn voice:
"It's the first time for your sons and daughters to fight with real knives and guns, but this is the first time there are deserters, if you don't kill or punish, how to do it in the future, don't think about it, lead the soldiers to be merciful, the second is to be proper" There is nothing wrong with the two people, they are merciful on weekdays, treat the soldiers well, and the foundation of the marching law... Vicious. Otherwise, how can he give orders? ”
Accompanied by Yu Dayan and said a few words, the old man was a little dazed by the fire in the house, so he simply wanted to go inside to take a nap first, knowing that Wang Tong had no internal dependents, and he didn't need female relatives to serve him.
Wang Tong gently brought the door to the door. But now the general is standing at the door, and the family will be commensurate with his usual master and servant, but he cares about himself like an elder, and his heart is very moved.
"Prepare some silver taels and send them to the families of those deserters in private, after all, they have been practicing here for so long."
Hearing Wang Tong's order, the general smiled and bowed down to receive the order.
Although the punishment for deserters is frightening. But the pensions for the dead in battle and the praise of the meritorious soldiers are also seen by everyone, and everyone knows what kind of treatment they have in this camp on weekdays.
Ordinary people are just repaying it, but the children of military families know what these treatments mean, more than 30 people were injured, and nearly 10 people were killed in battle and deserters, and a vacancy of 50 people was vacated at once, and many people were staring.
Although they were having fun during the first month, there were still people who walked around several military camps all day long, and around the Jinyi Wei Qianhu official office in the city, and there were also people on the other side of the city gate who regularly went to visit.
There is no other reason, see if there is any Jinyi Guard's recruitment paperwork over there, so that your children can sign up quickly.
But the selection of recruits was not carried out openly. This time, it was an internal search for people, and fifty young people who were not lazy and slid and were physically strong were selected from the original bow incense people.
After being selected. Lihai, a family member who originally followed the work on the dock, became a military family member, was relocated to his original residence, and was given Qian Mi.
The group of people in the original incense group are also in the bow incense, what are the layers of management of the head and the incense head, and they are not strong, they have teamwork, and they know that the people who listen to orders are the most suitable as soldiers.
This internal selection changed the spirit of the people on the bow of the ship, and everyone was a little desperate, not knowing when this hard labor would be done, but they didn't expect that there was still a chance to become a soldier of the brocade guard. This is a change from a criminal to an official body all of a sudden, and he has ascended to the sky in one step.
It turns out that doing a good job, there are such good things, and with this hope, everyone's spirit is much higher. As soon as the mentality is good, it is only now that the treatment of this hard labor is not bad, at least the food is good, the clothes are warm, and everyone has not been treated badly from beginning to end, and the work is done with peace of mind. ”,
The ten officers of the Qing Army Department, with 100 soldiers from the original Tianjin Wei Jinyi Guard, as well as 150 people led by Bao and Shan Wen formed the private team.
Bao Danwen knew what he could rely on to survive, in the small battle of Baojiazhuang, dozens of officers and soldiers of the main battalion were killed and wounded, and there was a case of desertion, although all those who had the blood of the brocade guards on their hands were beheaded to the public, but the battalion officers who participated in the battle were not good to him
Inexplicably, a future fell from the sky, and there were children in the hands of the other party, although Bao Danwen was about to be fifty years old. But he is more motivated than young people.
After staying in Tianjin Wei for only ten days, after a little rest, he hurriedly asked the order to go out to investigate, but he was full of resentment with Hang Daqiao, the deputy who was temporarily assigned to him, thinking that this is not yet the first month, and it is a cold day, what is the point of being busy with this.
This Bao Danwen really has some skills, the so-called thief is a public man to catch all the thieves, he was born as a salt lord, and he is proficient in trafficking in illicit salt.
Day 3. The cannon alone arrested six smuggler salt dealers, and five quintals of smuggling salt"
The salt lord colluded with the Salt Transportation Division to experience Qian Chunping, and the official salt was used as a smuggler to make huge profits, and the magistrate of Qingxian County was sent to the Beijing Division through Hejian Prefecture, and submitted it through the General Administration Department, with a confession on it, detailing the facts of the case, as well as what Bao Danwen had seen and heard, as well as Wang Tong's secret letter, which explained what had been seen and explained in the case of the bow incense case.
It was sent to the General Administration Department, and the subordinates of the General Administration Department experienced the storage. Then it was classified, and the recital of the Zhili Prefecture was different from that of other provinces as usual, and was sent to the right Tongzheng of the General Administration.
This right-wing political dignitary first looked at whether the music was in line with the institutional format, and whether there was any disrespectful evasion in the text. If it is all suitable, it will be summarized by the general envoy and sent to the celebrant supervisor.
It is a matter of Ouchi, and this general secretary is also the joint of the government and the opposition, and in order to know the news in time, all forces have installed cronies and eyes here.
In addition to the secret letterhead that is specially sealed, the bigwigs inside and outside the palace often know it earlier than the Son of Heaven.
The salt transport division experienced the greed for ink and was found out, and it is not uncommon for such things to come out of the salt administration, but it is a strange thing not to happen, and the right Tongzheng hastily read it, and took a thin pen to record a few words on the fold with him, and the value was lowered. gave the close-fitting fold to the person who received the news outside.
Qian Chunping, who is good at hand talking, was once a Qingke in the Shangqing Mansion of Zhang Hanfu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and was later recommended by someone to serve as the Changlu Salt Transportation Division.
Monday is a lot of things, late
