Chapter 202 Waste Phase-out
The next day, Liu Yan and Miao Shao led their troops out of the Governor's Palace, and at the same time took away a batch of military supplies.
This batch of armaments and materials includes 300 bundles of large rockets, 10,000 arrows and 100 tigers rushing together, as well as 1,100 bundles of small rockets, all of which are small bundles of rockets with 10 or 30 rounds.
The equipment of this batch of rockets provided effective fire support for Liu Yan's new army, and after Liu Yan returned to Lingshanwei, he equipped these rockets to the artillery commander.
The artillery commanded by Qian Wei will not increase the number of troops for the time being, and fortunately, the use of these rockets does not need to occupy special manpower, as long as they are temporarily set up on the battlefield and ignited and released.
At the same time, Liu Yan also selected three bundles of hundred tigers to run for big rockets, ordered people to send them to Wangjiazhuang quickly, and handed them over to Tan Xiaoda, the director of the Firearms Supervision Office, so that they could be imitated and mass-produced as soon as possible.
These rockets are actually primitive three-stage propulsion rockets, and they don't need to be very sophisticated, nor do they need too high-end technology, so when Tan Xiaoda received the three bundles of rockets running together, he just summoned some craftsmen from some firearms workshops to study them for a few days, and then made the samples.
At the same time, Tan Xiaoda also had a whimsical idea and borrowed the design concept of the Francophone running gun gun to create a gun truck for these hundred tigers to run together.
This kind of gun carriage is similar to the Shenji gun carriage equipped by the Shenji Battalion, it is a two-wheeled flatbed car, which is built on a wooden frame on the body, and there are 100 independent cylinders in the frame, each cylinder can place a rocket, and the fuses of all the rockets are connected in series, extending to the buckle at one end of the frame, and the fuse on the buckle is lit, and a hundred rockets can be fired at the same time to kill the enemy.
At the same time, the wooden frames on the body are mobile and can be freely disassembled, and each artillery carriage is equipped with ten wooden frames filled with 100 rockets, so that one artillery carriage can be continuously bombarded by the enemy, and ten "ammunition racks" can be replaced and fired in a very short time to cover the enemy's fire.
Liu Yan was pleasantly surprised when he heard the news, and hurriedly took people to Wangjiazhuang to inspect, and after seeing the real thing, he exclaimed: "Isn't this the Ming version of Katyusha?" ”
Tan Xiaoda was slightly stunned and asked, "What kind of sand is the adult talking about, what is it?" Is it also a group of fine firearms in the Kyoshi? ”
Liu Yan laughed and said, "Don't worry about this for now. This time, Director Tan has made a great contribution, and the official has decided that Director Tan will reward 300 taels of silver, and the craftsmen who participated in the design and manufacture of rocket artillery vehicles will each be rewarded with 100 taels of silver! ”
Tan Xiaoda was overjoyed and immediately thanked him.
"This rocket artillery vehicle should be mass-produced as soon as possible."
Tan Xiaoda said: "Now that all the Huzun cannons required by the cannon have been cast, and the Firearms Supervision Office is rushing to produce the Franc cannon, so the mass production of this rocket artillery needs to be delayed." ”
Liu Yan thought for a moment and said: "Then increase the output as soon as possible, this time the governor specially transferred a group of craftsmen, use all the available craftsmen in these craftsmen, and drive out the rocket artillery car as soon as possible, and I will send someone to inform you of the specific quantity." ”
"Yes."
After Liu Yan returned to the Lingshan Acropolis, he called the Artillery General Manager to talk about the development of rocket artillery vehicles by the Firearms Supervision Office, and then said: "In the current establishment of the General Artillery Gun, the number of Franc machine guns and Huzun cannons is ten per flag and two flags per sentry, with a total of twenty guns. I decided to add one more sentry to the artillery headquarters to equip the rocket artillery vehicles, which is still twenty. ”
Although Qian Jian had not seen the appearance and power of the rocket artillery vehicle for the time being, he also knew that it was a good weapon, and said happily: "My lord, my subordinates will select and recruit gunners as soon as possible." ”
Liu Yan nodded and said: "I have already said hello to the Firearms Supervision Office, you place an order with Director Tan as soon as possible, and load all the rockets into the truck and transport them to Wangjiazhuang as soon as possible." Director Tan will transform these rockets into ammunition for rocket artillery vehicles. ”
"Yes."
A few days later, Liu Yan inspected the reorganization of the battalions, and this time all the 8,000 recruits had been sent in place, and all battalions were undergoing integrated training, and Tian Huixu estimated that in another one to two months, the battalions would be able to form combat strength.
Liu Yan was very determined, so he began the next plan, in the name of the Lingshan Guard Integrity Officer, he ordered to verify the truth about the number of soldiers in thousands of households, hundreds of households, and Huoludun in various places, and at the same time eliminated the old and weak soldiers and horses, strictly investigated corrupt officials, and cut off the generals' families.
With a number of prongs, we are ready to vigorously rectify the Lingshan Guard.
As soon as this order came out, the entire Lingshan Wei was like boiling water, and it suddenly exploded.
Liu Yan specially called the commander and fellow knowledge Wang Weizhen and entrusted this matter to Wang Weizhen to be responsible.
"Wang Tongzhi don't have pressure, just let it go, this official only needs one result, that is, after this rectification, my Lingshanwei Dun army must be paid real soldiers, so the cultivated land that should be allocated to the dun army must be in place, the old and weak dun army will be abolished, and the young and strong military households will be recruited."
"The new army of the battalions of my Lingshan Guard is a soldier, and the dun army everywhere is the soldiers and horses stationed in various parts of the Lingshan Guard, although it does not have to be as strong as the new army, but it must not be a loose sand that is about to collapse at the touch of a button!"
"The second point is that officials in various localities who are corrupt or occupy military camps should return the embezzled money, grain, and cultivated land to the commanding envoy's yamen within 10 days, so that they can not be blamed for the past, but only be demoted to the first degree, and still retain them. If it is stubborn, after ten days, Wang Tongzhi will lead the department to conduct a comprehensive inspection, and the military and civilians everywhere can hear about it, and once it is found out, the crime will be severely punished! ”
"The last point, the generals of all places are not allowed to support their families, and they will also have a deadline of ten days, and all their families will be disbanded, and those who fail to do so will be dismissed and expelled from Lingshanwei!"
"The official wants these three results, as for the process, Wang Tongzhi just let it go, and the official is in charge of everything!"
"In addition, the department of Jia Hongyu, the defense officer of the Zhongqianhu Institute, is temporarily under the command of Wang Tongzhi, and anyone who resists can be killed directly as a last resort!"
At this time, Wang Weizhen was already sweating profusely, and his heart was even more turbulent, and he said: "Once this move continues, I'm afraid that this Lingshan Wei will turn the sky upside down, is this movement too big?" ”
"Too much movement?"
Liu Yan said with a smile: "It's better to have a big movement, the bigger the movement, the stinky fish and rotten shrimp under Lingshanwei will come out, and the official will be able to catch them all!" ”
"Under the rule of this official, there is no need for those fish and meat people, corrupt waste!"
Wang Weizhen understood that Liu Yan was ready to do it once and for all, just like he did in Wangjiazhuang and Xiahezhai Qianqianhu, to carry out a major purge of Lingshanwei.
Is it really okay to just keep doing this?
Wang Weizhen understands that there are people behind Liu Yan, Shandong Governor Lu Xiangsheng and Shandong Governor Yan Jizu will fully support Liu Yan, and even Shandong General Liu Zeqing is also very optimistic about Liu Yan.
Once the situation is out of control this time, Liu Yan naturally has these officials to protect, but what about Wang Weizhen?
"When the time comes, Lord Integrity won't throw me out and be a scapegoat, right?"
Wang Weizhen had such a question in his mind, but then he shook his head slightly: "No, although Lord Ethics is ruthless to the enemy, he will never abandon his own people. Or obey orders, the Lord of Ethics must already have his own reason! ”
Wang Weizhen quickly did a good job of mental construction, hugged his fists and said: "In this way, my subordinates will go and discuss with Jia Hongyu, the defense officer of Zhongqianhu, and start acting tonight!" ”
"Good!"
After sending Wang Weizhen away, Liu Yan came to the backyard, at this time Wang Yunhe's belly was already very big, and it was inconvenient to move on weekdays, so he needed Shang Shan and Ruoshui to serve him closely, so that no one slept Liu Yan at night.
At this time, the house was warm, the charcoal stove had been burned red, and Wang Yunhe was resting on the bed. Shang Shan sat on the side and chatted with Wang Yunhe, while Ruoshui sat on the side embroidering patterns.
When the three of them saw Liu Yan coming in, they were all full of joy, and after a while, Wang Yunhe asked, "Husband is so idle today, come to us?" ”
"I've just finished busy, I miss you, madam, so I'll take a look."
"Liar!"
Although Wang Yunhe said this, the corners of his mouth still rose slightly.
Then Wang Yunhe said: "By the way, husband, tomorrow I want to go to the sound temple outside the city to burn incense and pray for the child in my belly, and my husband will arrange for someone to give us three of us a ride." ”
Liu Yan said with a smile: "It's freezing this day, don't go, wait for the weather to warm up." ”
"Hmph, when the weather warms up, I'm going to give birth!"
Shang Shan said with a smile: "My husband is worried that my sister's body is inconvenient, but my husband can rest assured, Ruoshui and I will take care of my sister wholeheartedly, and there will be no difference." ”
Liu Yan shook his head and said, "Forget it, you really want to go, and wait for a while." And try not to go out lately, and let the servants buy whatever you need, understand? ”
Wang Yunhe, Shang Shan, and Ruoshui were all stunned, the three of them were not stupid people, so they naturally heard the voiceover.
"Husband, is something wrong?"
Liu Yan looked at Wang Yunhe with a worried look, and said with a smile: "Your husband and I have tens of thousands of elites of the new army in our hands, and Lu Duchen, Yan Futai, and Liu Junmen behind us, what can I do?" ”
"Then why ......"
Liu Yan said with a smile: "It's just that this time, I am going to clean up the Lingshan Guard's officials and check the actual situation of the Dun army in various places, so there may be some noise in the city, so don't go out to join in the fun." ”
Although Liu Yan didn't believe that in the current situation, those little shrimps of Lingshanwei still had the courage to come out and make trouble, after all, he killed hundreds of people in the Qianhu House in front of Xiahe Village, which was enough to deter Xiaoxiao. When he arrived at the Lingshan Acropolis, he also directly dealt with Shen Jiuwei and other gentry and officials, and the clear-eyed people naturally would not stupidly bump into the muzzle of the gun.
But Liu Yan should also be cautious, what if there is something that doesn't open his eyes? Anyway, this purge will not drag on for too long, Wang Yunhe is now a critical period, don't move if you can.
Although Liu Yan said it easily, Wang Yunhe knew Liu Yan's methods, so he nodded and said, "Since this is the case, it's good that we don't go out, and we won't embarrass our husband." It's just that the husband should not be blindly tough, if he can sit down and talk well, he should not use a knife or a gun. ”
"Hehe, don't worry, madam, I'm very talkative."
Here, Liu Yan and Wang Yunhe are happy, while Wang Weizhen and Jia Hongyu are worried.
"Master Ethics has a problem for us!"
Wang Weizhen glanced at Jia Hongyu and said: "This is also an opportunity, if we handle this matter well, we will be the absolute henchmen of the Lord of Ethics in the future, if you don't get it right, you can also bring a battalion of new troops in the future!" ”
Jia Hongyu was also said to be on fire, so he patted his thigh and said, "Okay! Adults say, what should we do? ”
Wang Weizhen said: "Actually, you don't need to check anything, who is a corrupt official in Lingshanwei, can our brothers still be unclear?" ”
"What do you mean?"
"I have drawn up a list, and tonight you will lead the troops and go from house to house according to the list, so that they will be dirty within three days. I'll take people to all over the thousands of households and hundreds of households to issue orders, and we will try to complete this matter within three days! ”
"Okay, it's all up to the adults!"
Some people died, but not completely......
