Chapter 574: Women's Barracks

Reminded by Zheng Jinhong's words, Zheng Xunrui's mood is much better, as a person who crosses, he was also a civil servant in his previous life, and the idea of traditional education is deep-rooted, although he knows that the Ming Dynasty has no hope, although he knows that the giant ship is about to sink, but subconsciously still supports him to be silently the captain of the firefight, hoping that the Ming Dynasty can be revitalized, and the development of facts makes him have the idea of setting up another mountain, but he always feels that his confidence is insufficient, and he has a lot of unhappiness when he does things. Zheng Jinhong's straightforward and simple words gave him the awakening of enlightenment.

There is a good saying, there are many people who are fluctuating in the world, everything is as you like, those who can't follow your heart will follow your fate, and those who can't follow your fate will be at odds, as long as you think what you are doing is right, why care about the opinions of outsiders, why care about the comments of the world, why let public opinion shackle your own thoughts and pace, and you can reach the peak by yourself.

The brilliance on Zheng Xunrui's face made Xu Wanghua and Zheng Jinhong a little surprised, in their eyes, Zheng Xunrui was calm and wise, but it was also slightly melancholy, but at this time, the melancholy film was pierced.

"Mr. Xu, Jin Hong, is there anything else that needs to be dealt with urgently, it has come to the time of spring break for a year, so many years have passed, I have not been able to have a good Spring Festival, I don't want to do so much this year, strive to deal with all the important things in a few days, and rest well in the next time."

Zheng Xunrui rarely said such words, he was busy every year, Xu Wanghua and Zheng Jinhong were almost used to it, and they were a little surprised to hear Zheng Xunrui say this at this moment.

Zheng Jinhong scratched his scalp and still spoke.

"Young master, Zheng Jiajun has three main things, the first thing is grain and grass matters, this expedition to Beizhili, the captured money and grain, thirty percent brought to Shaanxi. Seventy percent was brought to Fuzhou and Penglai and other places, which could last for a short time, and the income from the mutual market between Shaanxi and Mongolian tribes fully guaranteed the expenses of Zheng Jiajun in Fuzhou. This should be able to sustain itself. ”

"The second thing is the matter of recruiting sergeants, Hong Xintao, Yang He, Hong Xingui and others have already begun to operate, they strive to complete the conscription of sergeants within three months, Hong Xintao decided to continue to recruit some Mongolian tribesmen. Yang He decided to recruit a part of the Liaodong Han people, and the sailors were selected from the existing Zheng family army soldiers. ”

"The third thing is the matter of the women's barracks, after returning to Huai'an, the sergeants of the women's barracks are really not easy to place, and the subordinates have specially isolated a large part of the Zheng Jiajun barracks, as the station of the women's barracks, it is strictly forbidden for the officers and soldiers of the Zheng family to approach, otherwise the military law will be engaged, before Li Yan was responsible for the affairs of the women's barracks, and now Lord Li has gone back to take care of the affairs of Shanyin County. The women's battalion can only be directly taken care of by subordinates for the time being. ”

There are more than 1,400 women in the women's barracks of the Zheng family's army, many of whom are women who have been robbed and insulted by the Houjin Tartars, they have no way to live, according to the rules of chastity greater than heaven now, even if they go home, they can't live, Zheng Jiajun exterminated the Liukou and Han soldiers at the same time, they were rescued, and the local area could not be placed, and finally Zheng Xunrui made a decision. Let all these women enter the Zheng family's army, and the Zheng family's army set up a special women's barracks.

In the end, it is to give these women a way to live.

However, since the women's barracks have been established, it must be managed well in accordance with the military discipline and military regulations of the Zheng Jiajun.

Regarding the details in this regard, Zheng Xunrui really didn't think about it so much. He is very unfamiliar with how to manage female soldiers, and he doesn't know anything about it, since Zheng Jinhong raised this question, he must think of a proper management method.

In Zheng Xunrui's impression, female soldiers are basically medical soldiers, communication soldiers, and literary soldiers, etc., mainly responsible for communications, medical care, and logistics. It is basically impossible to go to war.

The women's barracks of the Zheng family army is the first in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no experience to learn from at all.

When he just returned to Huaibei, Zheng Xunrui heard that the women's barracks caused a great sensation in Huai'an, so that thousands of people were empty, and everyone came to see what the female soldiers were like.

After Zheng Jinhong finished speaking, Zheng Xunrui frowned and spoke for a while.

"Mr. Xu, this is really a troublesome matter, let's go to the women's barracks to see what the situation is."

Xu Wanghua's face also had a wry smile, when Zheng Jiajun returned to Huai'an, he saw so many women, his head was big, I don't know why there were so many women in Zheng Jiajun, and then Zheng Jinhong said it, and he knew that this was a decision made by Zheng Xunrui.

Zheng Xunrui, Xu Wanghua and Zheng Jinhong came to the Zheng Jiajun barracks.

The entrance to the barracks is still heavily guarded, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach.

Seeing Zheng Xunrui coming, the sergeant on guard immediately saluted, with an excited look on his face.

Entering the barracks, Zheng Xunrui saw everything he was familiar with, although it was not long after returning from Beizhili, many soldiers still participated in training every day according to the requirements.

The women's barracks is located to the northwest of the barracks.

This used to be the location of the artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion, the artillery battalion had long since moved out, and the new camp was close to the Firearms Bureau, and the Shenji battalion temporarily moved out and gave the place to the women's barracks.

Outside the women's barracks, the sergeants guarding looked nervous, this is a forbidden place, and no soldiers of the Zheng family army are allowed to enter.

Zheng Xunrui saw the nervous expressions of the guards, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"It's not a cage here, why are the guards so tight."

"Young master, this man and woman don't kiss, and his subordinates don't dare to violate it."

Zheng Jinhong's words made Zheng Xunrui speechless, and yes, now this is the rule.

"Mr. Xu, Jin Hong, I think that since this woman has become a soldier of the Zheng family's army, shouldn't the rules be different, they are not everyone's ladies, they hide in the barracks and don't come out, if this is the case, then why do you set up a women's barracks."

Despite this, Zheng Xunrui couldn't say what he needed female soldiers for.

entered the women's barracks, but in a quarter of an hour, Zheng Xunrui's face was very ugly.

The women's barracks have become an alternative in the barracks, military uniforms have been distributed, women in military uniforms look really good, and their mental outlook has also changed greatly, but they have not participated in the training, every day is to get some flowers and plants, many women in the barracks are embroidering, Zheng Xunrui, Xu Wanghua and Zheng Jinhong and others when they inspected, these women blushed and quickly hid to the side, when the women's barracks gathered, a quarter of an hour passed, and the standing formation was not in shape.

This made the word vase pop up in Zheng Xunrui's mind.

Back at the Governor's Palace, Xu Wanghua and Zheng Jinhong were a little unhappy, Zheng Xunrui returned to Huai'an, and he hadn't gone to the backyard to take a look, and he had been busy for more than an hour.

"Hong Xinyu, let Li Yan and the red lady come to the governor's mansion."

Li Yan and the Red Lady soon came to the Governor's Palace.

Zheng Xunrui's expression was very serious.

"I just came back today, so I invited you here, mainly for one thing, to let the red lady be the guerrilla general of the Zheng family army, and manage all the things in the women's barracks."

The red lady's eyes widened instantly, she also knew about the women's barracks, and even had the idea of entering the women's barracks, but after marrying Li Yan, such a request could not be made casually. Unexpectedly, Zheng Xunrui directly asked her to take charge of the women's barracks.

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and quickly spoke.

"The lower official obeys the arrangement of the adult, but what should be done in this female barracks, please arrange it for the adult, otherwise the lady will not know what to do."

Zheng Xunrui nodded, Li Yan had managed the affairs of the women's barracks for a few days, and he could see the problems.

"The female soldiers of the Zheng family, what should they do in the future, we need to think about it together, but there is one thing that is necessary, the soldiers must have the appearance of soldiers, and they also have to participate in the training every day, today I went to the women's barracks to see, a quarter of an hour passed, and the queue was not good."

"Women are careful, when they enter the Zheng family's army, they can always play a role, red lady, you are responsible for the affairs of the women's barracks, my first request, within a month, all the sergeants in the women's barracks can be like other soldiers of the Zheng family's army, quickly assemble, have the demeanor of a soldier, I don't want to see those twisted and pinched appearances, in daily life, all the sergeants of the female barracks, standing and sitting, this is the minimum requirement."

The red lady was very excited, looked at Li Yan, and wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say.

Li Yan touched the red lady.

"Lady, the adults have already said that you will be like me in the future."

"Li Yan, since it's the same, the external title will also be changed, and it should be called General Wang, as for how to call it when you go home, it's a matter between you, and I won't interfere."

The red lady's face turned a little red, but she still spoke boldly.

"The little girl must do a good job as an adult."

Zheng Xunrui and Li Yan looked at the red lady at the same time, and both of them were a little stunned.

After a while, Zheng Xunrui spoke.

"General Wang, I think the first thing to change is you, from tomorrow onwards, you will follow General Liu's side, while participating in training, while thinking about how to manage the women's barracks."

After Li Yan and the red lady left, Zheng Xunrui shook his head helplessly, looking at the matter of the children's barracks, he thought about it a little simpler, but this matter can only be done slowly, in his opinion, from the characteristics of the body, let the women's barracks be responsible for the care of the matter, it should be the most appropriate, Zheng Xunrui even thought of Nightingale in history, but now it is difficult to do this, after all, Zheng Jinhong can always think of whether men and women are intimate.

Since the matter has begun, it is necessary to break through and create step by step, Zheng Jiajun can first set up a women's barracks, what else can not be done. (To be continued.) )
