5-36 Sailor Draft
Since Cheng Liangjue's defection, the daily work of Shanghai Dao has come to a standstill, some officials ran away with Cheng, some officials were arrested by Liu Ziguang, and the rest were so frightened that they hid at home and did not dare to come out.
At this time, the emergency appointment of the imperial court also came down, and Liu Ziguang was promoted to the acting governor of Shanghai, and all the military and political power can be said to be in charge of the army, and he thought that a huge Shanghai Dao would definitely not be all Cheng Liangjue's henchmen, so he ordered to post a pacification notice, calling on the low-level officials of the yamen to come out to serve the imperial court, and those with outstanding performance could be promoted, anyway, there were many vacancies after the officialdom was purged, and after such notices were posted, they really attracted a lot of officials and errands to work, in addition, Liu Ziguang also transferred some civil officials from Suzhou Mansion to supplement his strength, and the pronoun on the head of Wang Lei, the acting governor of Suzhou, has been removed, and it is Qin's order, and the Suzhou prefect is grateful to Liu Ziguang, and he is very supportive of QinThe decision of the Lord Cha sent a group of outstanding criminal and civil affairs personnel to come over to temporarily relieve the urgent need.
The 2,000 captives of the Shanghai Navy Division have also been escorted back to Wusongkou, these prisoners are called officers and soldiers anyway, it is more suitable, some junior officers and ordinary sailors are not much, and the Cheng family who is willing to follow Cheng Liangjue to flee overseas is controlled by middle-level officers, in the process of escorting back to Shanghai, these die-hard elements also tried to seize the ship, fortunately, some of the officers and soldiers raised their arms and called on everyone to beat the demagogic guy to death, so as to avoid a senseless sacrifice.
Liu Ziguang is still very interested in the officers and soldiers of these two thousand sailors, he does not have the ready-made force of the navy in his hands, and he can use the Yangtze River, the Huangpu River and even the sea with a little transformation, and he needs someone to maintain the pursuit of Wen Jun's army, and the fleet also needs to cooperate, so he plans to reorganize this team, and now all the officers of more than 100 households in the army have stood in the courtyard of the governor's yamen and waited for Liu Ziguang's fall.
Liu Ziguang took the roster, flipped through it, and then looked up at these officers who were tall, short, fat and thin, a qualified soldier can be seen from the appearance, first can not be fat, secondly, not too white, and his eyes must be sharp, so that he can be regarded as a qualified soldier, Liu Ziguang looked at the standard, there were not many people standing in the back row, a very tall hundred households attracted his attention, and someone next to him immediately said: " This person's name is Wen Getao, a Ningbo fisherman, his hometown was ransacked by pirates when he was a child, this person sneaked into the bandit den alone, took the heads of 13 pirates, came back to join the army, worked in the navy division for five years, and is still the job of a hundred households, and it is this person who stopped the rebels and seized the ship. Liu Ziguang nodded, took a pencil and made a mark on the roster, and then said to the officers: "Now that the governor is in charge of Shanghai, all the rules are different from the past, and the competent and incapable subordinates do not raise wine bags and rice bags, and if you have any ability, you can play it in public, and the governor has his own decision." This is equivalent to an open interview, the officers bragged one by one, some said that they were the ancestors of the generals, how the ancestors of the tiger were on the battlefield, some said that they were skilled in bows and horses, and could carry a hundred catties of stone locks, and some people said that they were the descendants of Zheng He, the eunuch of Sanbao, and had the talent of navigators in their bones, and Liu Ziguang sweated down in his heart, and said in his heart, how could this eunuch still have children and grandchildren, and the bow and horse were proficient in these skills, as if the sailor didn't need it, watching these guys with fat brains and speeches about their glorious family history.
The more Liu Ziguang listened, the more helpless he became, could this be the level of the officers of the Navy Division? Finally, it was Wen Getao's turn to play, and he was wearing a sailor leather armor and stood in front of Liu Ziguang.
"Wen Baihu, what expertise do you have?" Liu Ziguang asked.
"The expertise of the lowly job can not be practiced on the water 6 ground, the lowly job can be in the sea for three days and three nights, not on the 6 lines of sailing, it is more commonplace, if the adults want to see the real skills, can not be selected in the yard, you have to sail out to sea to see the real chapter." Wen Getao was obviously not very interested in Liu Ziguang's method of selecting generals.
"Well said!" Liu Ziguang slapped his face and praised the files of these officers, he had read the military exploits of senior and middle-level officers, but almost everyone could get their hands on the example, there was always Wen Getao's name in the example, it seemed that this little hundred households was a panacea, whether it was anti-smuggling or pirates, as long as his name was in the list of combatants, this battle would be won.
There is no need for others to mention the reason for this, Liu Ziguang also knows that this hundred households is definitely a fierce general who can fight well.
"The court is at the time of employing people, are you willing to serve the governor?" Liu Ziguang asked.
"I am willing to serve the adults and serve the dogs and horses, but there is a small condition, and the adults are asked to fulfill it." Wen Getao bowed his head and surrendered his hands, his two hands were full of bruised tendons, plus he was tall and strong, with a dark complexion, and a tough guy at the end.
"Hahaha, if there are any conditions, you can mention it, as long as Ben Du can do it, it will naturally satisfy you."
"Humble since childhood, there is a little who was framed by the government, his family was ruined, and he killed the official and rebelled as a pirate, and now the governor of Shanghai Dao must clear the pirates. I want to ask for a favor for this brother, and ask the lord to be kind to him. "Said to be a plea, Wen Getao's expression is still neither humble nor arrogant, and he has no consciousness of begging for people, but it is more like a coercion, so he can't be a man, no wonder he has been a hundred households for many years.
"What's your brother's name? As long as he doesn't do a lot of evil, the governor can naturally recruit peace. For the individual general, Liu Ziguang doesn't mind at all, but appreciates it very much.
Such people often have great abilities.
"Lord Hui's humble brother is Yang Nanzhen, who is known as Zhennanhai, and Yang Da is the master." As soon as Wen Getao's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, Yang Nanzhen was quite a famous pirate, specializing in plundering foreign merchant ships, and the case was very large, and businessmen from all over the world lodged a strong protest to Shanghai Dao, asking for troops to be sent to exterminate this pirate, but the sailors had suppressed countless times in vain, but they didn't expect that this big bandit was actually Wen Getao's good brother, and the officers exchanged heads and ears, Wen Getao did not squint, and his face was normal, and he seemed to be confident.
Liu Ziguang doesn't know much about the profession of pirates, and the only knowledge still exists at the level of the pirated Vcd of "Pirates of the Caribbean" that he watched before, so he doesn't think there's anything wrong with being a pirate, but thinks it's very romantic and stylish.
"Okay, the governor promised you, but you have to complete a task first, lead the troops along the Yangtze River north to pursue the brigade, the Song army fleet, and when you return triumphantly, the governor will give you a general order to recruit Yangnan Town."
"Thank you, sir! Humble will lead the troops out of the enemy army and come to see him. Wen Getao was very moved by Liu Ziguang's trust, and swore on one knee.
At the same time, according to the report of the naval division, Liu Ziguang learned that the forbidden army of Shanghai Wei had fled to Chongming Island, and these thousands of people had been abandoned by Cheng Liangjue and became an ownerless army, and thousands of people stayed on Chongming Island, not to mention the counterattack on Shanghai, and they couldn't even leave Chongming, because the sailors who received themThe ships have been destroyed.
The forbidden army of Shanghai Wei is insufficient, and Liu Ziguang just sent a messenger with a pardon document stamped with the governor's customs to recruit them, the combat effectiveness of these forbidden troops is not high, and now there is no support, plus the family and relatives are still in Shanghai, how can they still have the heart to fight against the imperial court, believing that a piece of paper can subdue them.
Solve a big problem, Liu Ziguang's attention continued to turn to Wen Jun's disappeared troops, according to the intelligence of the Nanchang investigation, there happened to be a Yangzhou fleet transporting grain and pigs to Shanghai that night, passing through Suzhou Creek, there were 30 Cao boats, the carrying capacity was enough to carry 3,000 soldiers, thoroughly investigated the boss behind this fleet, it was actually a businessman from the Song Dynasty, and then checked the customs clearance diploma of the merchant ship that day, there happened to be 30 Yangzhou Cao ships going north to react, and it was already very clear that Wen Jun must have led his troops to attack the capital thousands of miles after checking here!
Wen Getao took a thousand selected sailors to surrender troops along the Yangtze River to the north, but Liu Ziguang was not completely relieved, because Wen Jun was too terrible, and the scientific and technological level of the Song Kingdom was also worrying, so Liu Ziguang personally led the airship troops to rush to reinforce all kinds of advanced firearms, loaded with airships, floating mightily over the Yangtze River, motor-driven propellers, driving airships forward, winding Yangtze River from afar, like a shining ribbon, countless merchant ships and cargo ships on the river come and go, a busy scene.
The Nanchang Fanzi who had previously sent out sent a telegram saying that the Jiangyin section of the Yangtze River waterway had been blocked for three days and three nights, and according to this time, it was very likely that Wen Jun's troops would also be blocked here.
"Praise the Yangtze River sailor." Liu Ziguang said that the Yangtze River Sailor is a traffic police to a certain extent, and the Yangtze River is the main transportation artery of the Ming Dynasty, which can block the wide Yangtze River for so long.
The character of Wen Getao is custom-made for readers, I hope I like it. Who is Yang Nanzhen?
Pseudo-military fans who like to see the knowledge of ships should know each other.
