Chapter 191: Restructuring the Supervision of Bids (II)
I have to say that the green camp is a relatively garbage profession, copying the homes of dozens of green camp generals, including real estate and land, only a hundred thousand taels of silver, and only tens of thousands of taels of cash in hand, after giving 20,000 taels to the Du family three tigers, there is not much cash left in Yang Meng's hands.
These days when the people in western Yunnan were waiting, Yang Meng was not idle, first reported the approximate number of recruits, and then said the use of the money for copying the family, for the military tun, Lin Zexu is still in favor, although the disadvantages of this law are not small, but it can improve the loyalty of the superintendent.
From Yang Meng's point of view, it is understandable to do this, so Lin Zexu reluctantly responded to the matter of Juntun.
The number of 4,500 people has also been recognized by Lin Zexu, and a large part of the training will be selected, and now the superintendent only cares about food and housing, and the cost is not big, and the news from Yongchang is not good, and if you don't get the place in western Yunnan, you still have to use troops, and there is no harm in gathering more manpower.
"Xingdou, I'll hand it over to you, you can take care of the generals yourself, this is the roster."
Lin Zexu took out the meaning of the roster, and Yang Meng also knew that he had killed dozens of green battalion generals at once, which was okay in Yunnan, and it was not a good thing to report it to the imperial court, and impersonation was now the only way.
"I will live up to my trust."
After receiving the roster, Yang Meng also knew that this Lin Laohu was sending off guests, and he didn't stay long, and returned to Kunming West Campus with all the formalities.
The three tigers of the Du family made a fortune with Yang Meng, and they have been very obedient these days, and Yang Meng did not let their men be idle, and inquired about the origin of the opium dealers in Sichuan and Guizhou provinces. That's their task.
This thing. Yang Meng also handed over to Qin Ziqi's shadow troops. This is also a good time to test the ability of this shadow force.
"Fu Hu, the three generals who are vacant by the superintendent, the three of you brothers will be on top! You and the third child are leading the troops in the battalion, and the second child will follow me! ”
The meaning of Yang Sanye's words, Du Fuhu knew that this was to take the second child as a hostage, but they first joined the Yang family. Yang Sanye should do this, he didn't say anything about it.
But Yang Meng has something to say! The three tigers of the Du family, the boss is the most powerful, whether it is the kung fu under his hands or the scheming city, they are all qualified, and the second brother of the Du family, Du Baohu, is a little stuffy, he is not suitable for leading troops, but his mind is delicate. It's a good material to be a bodyguard.
The third elder of the Du family, Du Zhenhu, is a rammer. No scheming, short-tempered, but a fierce general's material, it is enough for the governor to have the boss of the Du family and the third to lead, as for the second, follow him as a bodyguard and escort, one is to contain the three brothers of the Du family, and the other is that this errand is suitable for him to do.
"The tiger is not good at talking but has a delicate mind, and he is a good material for being a guard, and he is not very suitable to stay in the army, what do you say?"
"The third master is Mingjian, the second is a gourd with a saw-mouthed mouth, and he really can't lead the troops, but in the past, we fought in the rivers and lakes, with his protection, the third master didn't make a mistake once, or the third master has a unique vision."
As soon as Yang Meng said this, most of the mustard in Du Fuhu's heart was gone, this person! You will get a place where you can use it, otherwise you won't be able to do anything.
"You take the manpower and sort out all the things that are in charge of the superintendent, and see if there are any ones that can be used."
The equipment of the superintendent is also a problem, the equipment of the new army must not be configured for the superintendent, some things have to be slowly accepted by Lin Zexu, and now if you want to practice the superintendent, you can only work hard from hand-to-hand combat.
However, the shotguns and guns of the green camp can also be used, and the Western granular gunpowder imitated by Xishan is more powerful than the powder medicine of the Qing Dynasty, and the amount of medicine is less, and the pressure on the barrel can be smaller.
Du Fuhu led people to work for more than an hour before he got out the things of the superintendent, and the superintendent can have these things, and he has to thank the inaugurated Yunnan Governor Zhang Bilu, not this old boy, the superintendent will not have so many shotguns and guns.
Three hundred shotguns, two hundred guns, waist knives, thousands of spears, this is all the belongings of the superintendent, the artillery of the Yunnan green battalion, all in Wei Huozi, the superintendent does not even have a small cannon now, can only use the gun.
The quality of the green camp things is really not very good, the spears are rusty, the waist knife is not out of the sheath, and it can scare people, but a sheath can laugh at the dead, the original two-foot blade, maybe it has been sharpened many times, only more than one foot left, and the blade is also narrow, like a trumpet knife, Yang Meng tried it, this waist knife can stab people to death, if you want to cut people, I am afraid that people are not cut, and the knife will be cut off.
"! That's all this stuff and! Fuck those bastards, I used to see the waist knife of the governor and still make a living, maybe after the battle, they sold all the good knives, these bastards, it's too fucking cheating. ”
Thousands of waist knives, not much can be used, the most annoying thing is that there are hundreds of wooden knives inside, this thing is equipped with the superintendent, is it to make the opponent laugh to death?
I don't know if I don't know the road, I look at the angry people, the thousands of spears are also a hanging sample, not to mention the rusty spear heads, those guns, one is counted as a handful, and the white powder is shaken and falls off, these things are eaten by insects.
Okay! The hundreds of thousands of taels obtained from the raid had to be used to buy knives and guns.
"Send someone to ask the West Mountain, if the sword that Lao Tzu wants has been built."
Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, it is nothing more than spending money to buy, let the blacksmiths on the west side of the mountain practice their hands first! It's nothing more than that this superintendent is also the Yang family's private army, and it's not too much to get some steel knives.
There is nothing to do, so I can only practice the basic skills first, and the more than 70 people of the Du Three Tigers, plus the hundred people who were dug up from Wei Huozi, have become the objects of Yang Meng's training.
Long-distance running, weight-bearing long-distance running, strength training is that they have to do basic training, as for fists and feet, a set of ordinary military boxing, it is enough for them to bear, the superintendent must quickly become an army, I am afraid that it will take a month or two to fight, and the method of drilling, Yang Meng has also streamlined a lot.
Under Ding Baojun's arrangement, the manpower in western Yunnan came very quickly, and in 20 days, 4,500 people arrived one after another.
The strong men of the Han people are still good at training, the mountain people selected in western Yunnan, and the soldiers in the original cottage. It's not very easy to lead. The soldiers are okay. Those unruly mountain people, if it weren't for Kunming Yang Sanye, I'm afraid the Du brothers would not be able to suppress them.
In the past, when Yang Meng trained knife hands, the means of eating and managing his sufficiency were also a little difficult, and Yang Meng, who was helpless, could only kill people.
The temperament of these mountain people is too unruly. If there is a slight disobedience, what is not official, he dares to hit when he reaches out his hand, and he is still a dead hand, killing more than 30 people before and after, and these more than 4,000 people can be regarded as relatively obedient.
In response to these people, Yang Meng also took out a ruthless move, and practiced standing in a military posture without practicing anything else. Seven hours a day, standing in a military posture, only eating two meals in the morning and evening.
Standing faint. After waking up with a scoop of cold water, you have to be whipped three times; Move around, a whip; Pulling pee is all in the pants. After half a month's effort, these more than 4,000 people can be regarded as a bit of a soldier.
If you don't want to, you can't do it! More than a dozen people who did not listen to the command were tied to the pillar and starved to death, which was much more effective than killing the head, and the sound of begging for mercy was a whip in the depths of the soul, and the military order slowly became an insurmountable thing.
A set of military boxing, learned for seven days, seven days after the sparring, this is much easier than standing in the military posture, although every day is beaten to the nose and face swollen, the whole body is painful, but compared to the standing military posture, this is much easier.
In a month and a half, this superintendent was truly completed, and there was a standing appearance, and there was a lot of fierceness on his face. The knives on the West Mountain side were not well wounded, but five thousand steel spear heads were sent, and with these things, it was time for actual combat.
Red tassel gun, Yang Meng didn't know how to play at all, found his uncle Sun Shun, and asked for a set of simple marksmanship used by Qi Jiguang to fight against the Japanese, so that these new troops practiced and fought for half a month, Yang Meng didn't say anything else, and directly asked Du Fuhu to pull half of the men and horses and go out to fight wild food.
The governor of Yunnan spent a month sweeping 10 opium-growing Zhuangzi in Sichuan, and grabbed more than 3,000 taels of opium produced in Sichuan, more than 100,000 taels of silver. There is not much difference in Guizhou, more than a dozen Zhuangzi, more than 1,000 loads of opium.
There were a lot of opium caravans looted, and nearly 8,000 loads of opium were robbed, almost all of which were produced in Sichuan.
It's okay to say in Guizhou, Lin Zexu doesn't care about it, even if it matters, who did it, Lin Zexu knows that 50,000 taels of silver is also pressed in the yamen of the Governor's Palace, this is considered a seizure, and naturally part of it has to be handed over.
Sichuan is definitely a major opium cultivation province in the Qing Dynasty, but most of the good land that can grow opium is planted with opium, and the taxation from opium is also a step ahead of the Sichuan government.
This year, the tax on opium has been collected, and ten large Zhuangzi, which can grow opium, have been slaughtered, with thousands of dead and wounded, and most of the caravans and caravans that transport opium have also been robbed, and most of the opium produced in the province has been robbed.
Just lost Sichuan copper, the Sichuan Governor's Mansion easily got an open source method, and was disturbed by Yunnan, who robbed the opium, the Sichuan Governor's Mansion has a lot of hearts, a team of thousands of people, and also carries shotguns and guns, except for the green camp, where is there such a thing?
The green camp in Sichuan will not do this, because most of them also make a fortune on opium, and as for Guizhou, it is also the same over there, and it is even more impossible to hide the border, there is no habit of smoking big cigarettes, the rich don't smoke, the poor can't afford to smoke, and it's useless for them to ask for those things.
And the locations where Sichuan and Guizhou were attacked are all bordered by Yunnan, who did this, it goes without saying!
Lin Zexu, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, is also an old Wang Ba, who doesn't remember to eat or fight, even if Yunnan is financially tight and doesn't have the money from the green camp, he can't do this!
Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver that were robbed, the more than 10,000 taels of opium are worth more than one million, and now because of the panic of the people, the price of opium in Sichuan and Guizhou provinces has skyrocketed, and the opium in Zhuangzi has now risen to more than 100 taels.
It is obviously not possible to go to the court to fight a lawsuit, although the court says that opium is banned, but there is still some disdain for this thing, and it is purely a matter of looking for a lawsuit with this thing.
The path of the imperial court can't go through, and some people want to follow Lin Zexu's path, but how can Lin Zexu admit this? A sentence of ignorance is over.
However, because of this incident, Yang Meng was severely taught a lesson by Lin Zexu.
"Yang Meng, you are so bold, conniving at the governor to rob the neighboring provinces, if this is stabbed in the capital, it is a big crime to kill the head!"
"My lord, my subordinates have been wronged, our Yunnan governor has just arrested a few opium dealers who are going to Yunnan and plundered neighboring provinces, where does this start?"
"Good! Good! Good! Then let the Sichuan Governor's Mansion find you a theory! ”
"This subordinate is not afraid, he will kill as many as he comes, and the officials will sell opium, this is a capital crime!"
"You...... How's your standard training? ”
"It's still available, and a total of 3,800 usable soldiers have been screened out, and the subordinates are helpless! This knife and gun are all big items that cost silver, a hundred steel gun heads, is a few taels of silver, three thousand hundred and eight gun heads are more than 10,000 taels of silver, knives cost more money, a good knife twenty or thirty taels, this money from the Governor's Palace? ”
"Only this time is not an example, next time there is no lawlessness, and the governor will not be able to protect you, get out!"
Yang Meng is happy to roll, he does have the capital of Lede, more than 13,000 loads of opium! If you take the goods of the East India Company, the value must be two or three million taels, which is a good bargain!
Although it was said that hundreds of people were folded and hundreds of thousands of silver were spent to compensate for the dead and wounded, but after calculating, they still earned it themselves, one was to ban drugs in disguise, the second was to make a ruthless fortune, and the third was the dead people's homes, the family got two hundred taels of silver, and they also had a foundation, at least they could not starve to death in the famine, and the most important point was that they supervised the construction of 3,800 people. (To be continued......)
