Hearing Gu Zhenhua's words, Wu Youke was so frightened that he jumped up from his seat all of a sudden.
"Ji Guogong, the old man studies medical skills in order to cure diseases and save people, let's not conspire with each other!"
After the old man Wu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, where did Gu Zhenhua allow such an old baby to run away, and grabbed Wu Youke's sleeve.
"Mr. Wu, killing the wicked is a good thought, the Tartars poisoned the Central Plains, how many people were killed, hundreds of people were unwilling to die every day, and many more people became slaves! It's true that you're a doctor, and it's not wrong that you don't want to kill, but have you ever thought about it, killing one person and saving a hundred people, killing ten thousand people, it's a billion trillion Li Shu, don't you do this kind of thing? ”
Wu Youke's face was distorted for a while, and his facial features were condensed together.
The little old man flicked his sleeves fiercely, "Grandpa Guo, although the old man has figured out the cause of the plague, spreading the plague is not a trivial matter. I remember that when the Yuan army attacked the Central Plains, they threw corpses and feces and other filthy things into the city, causing the people to become sick. Now that I think about it, that's what threw those disease-causing bugs in! Now that Grandpa Guo wants to create a plague, how can it spread? Was it someone who quietly carried it to the barracks of the Qing army? Is there a danger to the person who carries it? Besides, how to control the plague from spreading everywhere, if the Qing army is not killed, but thousands of people will suffer, what face does the old man have to live in the world! ”
Listening to Wu Youke's words, Gu Zhenhua also scratched his head for a while, the biological weapon was a thing during World War I, and now I want to make it, it's too early!
What's more, how to transport and spread it is a big problem, if you don't get close to the Qing army, your own people will hang, after all, the plague is not a fun thing.
Gu Zhenhua was thinking in his heart. Suddenly, my eyes lit up.
"Mr. Wu, did you say that there is a plague that the Han people are not infected, only the Manchu people are infected!"
"How is this possible, the way of heaven is constant. Don't survive for Yao, don't die for you. Birth, old age, sickness and death, even if it is the king of heaven, Lao Tzu is the same......"
Wu Youke was talking, but there was a lightning bolt in his head, "Could it be that you are talking about smallpox?" ”
Gu Zhenhua laughed: "That's right. It's smallpox! ”
Originally, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was outside the Guan, sparsely populated, and they did not have many infectious diseases in the Central Plains, and because of this, they lacked resistance.
After entering the customs, many high-ranking Manchu officials and generals died of smallpox. Because of the fear of smallpox. chose Kangxi Xiao Mazi to be the emperor. In addition, the Mongols did not enter the customs because of the fear of smallpox.
When you think about it, the risk of creating a plague is too high, but the spread of smallpox is different, and the feasibility and safety are multiplied.
"I think smallpox is also transmitted by this little thing, as long as you get some from the patient's skill. Then let the people who had smallpox take them to the north, and try to get in touch with the high-ranking officials and magnates of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it is indeed very likely that they will contract smallpox. ”
Wu Youke couldn't help but mutter: "If you get smallpox once, you won't get it again, and you can avoid hurting the innocent, it's really hard for Grandpa Guo that you can come up with such a good idea!" ”
"Mr. Wu, I am still a doctor's parents, you will only save people, not harm people!" Gu Zhenhua smiled and teased Old Man Wu.
Wu Youke glared and said, "Hmph, parents treat their children in their hearts, facing a bunch of Tartars." The old man is not so stupid. I'm worried that the plague will hurt the innocent, and besides, even those of you who are in power, all of you are ruthless, and I'm afraid that one day it will be for your own power. The people who will use these things to mutilate themselves! ”
"Mr. Wu, don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen, and An**'s knife will always be only aimed at the enemy!"
Wu Youke rolled his eyelids, "Old man, I will believe you once, I will go to a few smallpox patients and take off the scabs and pus on their bodies, how to infect the Qing army, then you will have to think about it." ”
"No problem, there's Mr. Law."
Sending Wu Youke away, Gu Zhenhua is still quite satisfied with his plan, Kangxi Xiao Mazi has smallpox, it can be seen that this infectious disease is widely prevalent, and it will not be revealed, it is a necessary thing for home travel, killing people and goods!
"Dali, go and call Wu Kaijie over."
Kang Dali agreed, and Wu Kaijie was called over after a while.
"Grandpa Guo, what do you command?"
"You go and inform the Military Music Division, select a group of the best storytellers and singers, and let them go north immediately to find a way to contact the Manchu elites, and the higher the level of contact, the better. In addition, I will buy a batch of ready-to-wear shops, silk and satin villages, etc., I will be of great use! ”
"Grandpa Guo, are you trying to spy on the Manchu Qing Dynasty?" Wu Kaijie said with a smile: "If you want me to say that ready-to-wear shops and silk houses are not as good as wine, rice and tea shops, there are many people there, and there are many news that can be obtained." ”
Gu Zhenhua glared at Wu Kaijie fiercely, "Don't shake the little wit in front of me, do you know what Benjue is doing with these ready-to-wear shops?" ”
"Sell clothes to make money?" Wu Kaijie also felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly closed his mouth.
"The ready-to-wear shop is a send-off to death!" Gu Zhenhua sneered: "Don't ask more, do it honestly, remember to get high-quality goods, and attract more Eight Banners nobles, the better!" ”
"Yes!"
Wu Kaijie wanted to break his head, but he couldn't guess that Gu Zhenhua wanted to use these shops to spread smallpox! This is the gap in the vision of the times, which is not made up by any ingenuity.
After the arrangements were made, Gu Zhenhua was also a lot more relaxed.
In the next few days, Sun Cheng, Li Xu, and Guo Yunlong came to Henan with men and horses one after another, and Gu Zhenhua had more than 40 battalions in his hands at once, with a total strength of more than 20,000. After some training, the recruits are now quite mature and worthy of a battle.
At this moment, Zi'an** can be said to be full of essence, and his strength is unprecedentedly strong. On the second day when everyone arrived, Gu Zhenhua officially convened everyone and held a military meeting.
All the generals of An **, including the staff and logistics personnel, as well as Chen Yi, Li Nian and other generals who had just been subordinated, were all gathered together. The big guys are also sitting upright, not squinting, they all know in their hearts that a real big battle is just around the corner.
Gu Zhenhua is also dressed in a military uniform, which is particularly solemn.
"Everyone, everyone must know that Wu Sangui is leading the Qing army to kill, and around the north of the Yellow River, we have to start a fight to the death with the big traitors. In addition, the Dashun army also marched north with the main force, preparing for a decisive battle with the Qing army in northern Shaanxi. This is a life-and-death battle related to the fate of China, and all of you here, including me, must be ready to sacrifice at any time, and we must not let our efforts go to waste, and we must not allow the Qing army to calmly occupy the Central Plains. ”
"Grandpa Guo, rest assured, we are sure to attack the Qing army and defend the mountains and rivers!"
"Good!"
Looking at the morale-filled generals, Gu Zhenhua was also extremely excited, this is where his confidence lies!
"Listen, everyone, in order to meet the needs of the war, An ** has to be expanded, and the original establishment of about 500 people in a battalion can no longer meet the needs of the war. On the basis of battalions, he decided to set up a regimental structure, with each regiment having two battalions under its jurisdiction. In wartime, several regiments unite and form corps to fight. ”
Gu Zhenhua said, and asked Wu Kaijie to send the new reorganization plan to everyone. According to Gu Zhenhua's design, the artillery battalion did not move for the time being, and after the three battalions of the cavalry were supplemented with a certain number of troops, they were expanded into two regiments, of which the first regiment was equipped according to the standard equipment of the Polish hussasars, and the regiment commander was Yue Poyu. The second regiment was mainly based on reconnaissance, and the regiment commander was handed over to Li Nian.
First, Li Nian has experience in commanding a large army, and second, he can win the hearts of the people who have joined him. Of course, Gu Zhenhua also has the intention of appeasing the red lady, and she always has to find a suitable position for her subordinates.
Fortunately, the second regiment is clearly a second-line unit, and the others don't care. In terms of the most important infantry, Gu Zhenhua also made great efforts, and each of the original five guards battalions was combined with a recruit battalion to form five brand-new guards regiments. These five regiments are the core and main forces of the An** Field Battle, and all of them are under the direct command of Gu Zhenhua.
In addition, among the elite of An **, there are ten battalions of recruits trained by Gu Zhenhua at the earliest, and after being transferred to form the Guards Regiment, there are still five battalions left, and five second-class combat regiments are formed with these five battalions as the core, led by Sun Cheng, Li Xu, Guo Yunlong, Xie Bin, and Zhou Yingjie. They served as a supplement to the Guards Regiment and were also the main force in the field.
In this way, with the addition of the artillery battalion, Gu Zhenhua formed ten infantry regiments, plus one cavalry regiment, a total of more than 13,000 field troops, and in terms of combat capability, it was completely able to compete with the Qing army of 10,000 or 20,000.
If he relied on the fortified city to fight and had enough gunpowder, Gu Zhenhua would even be sure to block the attack of the 350,000 Qing army. After all, in the face of the troops armed with firearms, the Qing army, which was still in the era of cold weapons, had too many weaknesses.
The rest of the troops were organized into garrison regiments, and Hou Sanhuai, Kang Lesheng, Chen Yi, Huo Yingfang, Zhao Tian and others were all promoted to regiment commanders, stationed in Jixian, Xinxiang, Yanjin, Fengqiu and other strategic places north of the Yellow River. In addition, places such as Luoyang and Kaifeng also sent soldiers to defend.
In fact, it was a little inappropriate to adjust the establishment before the war, but fortunately, Gu Zhenhua had already done the work in advance, and An** expanded rapidly, and upgrading was inevitable.
Sure enough, after this plan was announced, the big guys were all upgraded, and they were extremely happy. Li Xu and they also have their own abacus in their hearts, and Li Chengliang was proud of the border when he had 7,000 families. With An's training level, there is no problem with comparing to Jiading. A regiment of more than 1,000 people, according to common sense, can completely defeat tens of thousands of troops of the Ming army, and they can almost be compared with the total soldiers of a town!
Gu Zhenhua saw that everyone was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "This is just the first step, as long as this battle is won, An ** will also show off to ensure that there are enough stages for everyone to show their talents!" ”
"Thank you Grandpa Guo for cultivating!"
Gu Zhenhua came to the front of the map with a smile and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone's officials have been promoted, as the so-called new officials take office with three fires, should we burn the big traitor?" ”
