0418. Grassroots organizations

There are unpredictable storms in the sky, and people have good and bad luck.

Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. Thousands of miles of opportunity, unpredictable.

Just in response to the old saying: plans don't change quickly.

In order to gain time and prevent accidents, Prince Xiong ordered Sima Cheng's trapped camp of 2,700 people to double the way, and took over Heming Town and Luojian Town after a day and a night.

Xiong Chu set off with the Chinese army guards as the second group, and the female battalion escorted their people with the new battalion, and it took four days and four nights to finally complete the great migration.

Fengluan did not break his promise, and more than 20,000 people in Heming Town and Luojian Town were all moved, and all the grain and grass were ready.

Feng Suqin came over in person and completed the handover procedures on the battlefield.

Fifty miles west of Heming Town, is the Yangjie Town of Wubikui.

In other words, Heming Town is the border line, and this is already a face-to-face between the enemy and us.

Xiong Chu naturally did not dare to slack off, and ordered the Sima Chengcheng camp, which had the strongest combat effectiveness, to garrison Heming Town, and the female barracks to garrison Luojian Town in the north.

After the big clue was basically implemented, Xiong Chu personally supervised the training and organization of the recruit camp, and ordered Yan Erniang and Lan'er to be responsible for organizing the people.

Now the place is basically its own, so the more than 20,000 people have to be divided into groups, and then the village will be formed and the production will be resumed.

The biggest difficulty faced by the grouping of the common people is that there is no complete form of family structure.

The slaves had just been freed, and they didn't know what a complete family was, and they didn't know how to get it.

Among the more than 20,000 people, only about 100 families have been registered, and the population is only about 300.

"They can't have any parents' orders, matchmakers. When Chu Xiong received the report, he also said to Lan'er and Yan Erniang helplessly: "The two of you should be the head of the family, and according to the principle of mutual consent, the woman will reach the age of sixteen and the man will reach the age of twenty, and all of them will start a family." ”

"It's useless to talk to them a lot now, only to clarify a few big principles first. First, it is forbidden to buy and sell human beings, that is, husbands are not allowed to sell their wives and children. Second, in the future, the children will be their own, and whoever dares to snatch other people's children will be beheaded. ”

"Thirdly, every 100 households constitute a village, and everyone elects a lieutenant to be responsible for daily management. Fourth, each household is divided into three acres of cooked land and five acres of mountainous land according to the head. Fifth, the seeds for planting crops should be received in accordance with the uniform regulations, and they should not be arbitrary. ”

"Sixth, the villages should build houses in designated places, all of which should be built in the form of wooden plank hanging towers, and it is not allowed to make a shack with tree branches. Seventh, the agricultural tools are distributed to each household, and the custody should be strengthened, and those who lose them will be punished. Eighth, stealing from others is punishable by caning. ”

"Ninth, it is forbidden to bully people casually in the village, let alone bully other women, and violators are beheaded. Tenth, it is forbidden to fight and fight, and if there is a dispute, it must be reported to the chief, and the murderer will die. Eleventh, when outsiders are found, the lieutenant chief will lead the villagers to arrest them and send them to the barracks. ”

Yan Erniang said with a smile: "Of course, what Xianggong said is right, but now these people are all provided by us with food, seeds, clothes, farm tools, and houses. So, how will the things they grow be distributed in the future?"

Xiong Chu shook his head: "This can't be rushed, it can't be done according to our Central Plains." You think, they haven't forgotten that they are slaves, they don't have the consciousness of being masters at all, and they are still stuck in the stage where their masters tell me to do whatever they want. ”

"Now we can only manage it in a unified way, and the harvest must also be managed in a unified way. If we let them do it themselves, I'm afraid they'll eat all the seeds. The task of the lieutenant chief is to supervise their work and let them slowly develop good habits. After they know what they should do, we will improve the management system of the village. ”

"For now, it's not going to work for them to elect the governor. My point of view is that the lieutenant commander of the newly built village should be a soldier who could not continue to fight after we were wounded. In this way, every village has our soldiers, who can be equipped with weapons. ”

"We currently have more than 100 crippled soldiers with the army, and all of them have been arranged to manage the village. First of all, teach those slaves to be human beings, and forget the way they used to be slaves. You have to tell our sergeants to be patient with the villagers, slowly teach the living habits of the Central Plains, and don't beat people at every turn. ”

Lan'er grinned: "I said brother, now there are two market towns here, I'm afraid that it's not enough to have a lieutenant chief, can't the villagers come to us for anything, right? If there is a county on the site, then there must be a county order. ”

Xiong Chu stretched out his hand and flicked Lan'er's nose and smiled: "You're right, it's troublesome enough for us to command the war, and these local affairs really have to be managed by special personnel." Go down and look for people to see who can come out to be the head of the township, and who can be the county magistrate in the future. ”

Lan'er shook her head: "If you want to be an official, you need someone who has read a book." Only if you can write and calculate, can you manage the bottom well. We don't have readers, so it's definitely not going to work. But now the people taught by the imperial court are of no use to us at all, and this is the most troublesome. ”

"Okay, you dead girl, you have learned to go around the bend with your brother!" Xiong Chu was made to cry and laugh by Lan'er: "Aren't you just going to run a township school? This idea is very good, what is there to dare to say? I am disgusted with readers, I mean those scholars who have brought disaster to the country and the people." ”

"You see Miao Sanguan, Wan Lian, as well as Yuan Liqing, Huang Yanying, Fang Qianxun, including you Yan Erniang, they are all readers, I like them all. Because you are all people who are useful and useful, and I need such people. ”

"Running a village school and cultivating people who are useful to us is a big thing that will be beneficial to future generations. No matter how much money it takes, I'll pay for it! If it doesn't work, I'll go back and be a killer for another two years. Hahaha-"

Yan Erniang seemed to be a little hesitant: "Xianggong, if you want to talk about scholars, there are many people in our army, but women are relatively more readers." If according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, women can't come forward to do things, this is what Lan'er didn't say clearly just now. ”

"Nonsense!" Xiong Chu suddenly became a little angry: "We will learn the good things, and what will we learn the bad things from him? What is wrong with the woman? Look at this, Qin Liangyu, the stone pillar toast, the Wuding toast, Fengluan, and the Ninglang toast, are all women in charge, and they do better than those men's toasts." ”

"In my Xiong Chu's eyes, there is no distinction between men and women at all. Those who can work hard, and anyone can take the lead. Could it be that our people from the Central Plains can't catch up with the female toasts of the Southern Barbarian Land? They can use women as local prefects, and we must train our own real female prefects and governors in the future to power the world. ”

Hearing Chu Xiong's words, Lan'er clapped her hands excitedly and shouted: "It's good that my brother is not angry, my second sister and I are finally relieved." ”

"You are all thinking about the overall situation, why am I angry?" Xiong Chu smiled and said, "You two came to test me today, don't I know? Because several of us are practicing the Shangqing Mind Method, once we settle down, the cries of caterpillars within a radius of twenty zhang can be heard. ”

"What you said next door to me the other night, even if I don't want to hear it, will reach my ears. You're always worried about me picking on me halfway, so you're up and down. Go down and tell them, Xiong Chu will do anything, but he won't pick a child halfway, let them do it. ”

This is the first time in so many years that the bear prince has officially stated his position: prepare a road to the dark.

Lan'er and Yan Erniang did accept the heavy responsibility, and the purpose was also to test the reaction of Prince Xiong.

Because the current army has surrounded Yuanmou County, if Xiong Chu still can't make up his mind, once he captures a county seat, he will soon be chaotic.

Before the military advisor Wan Lian returned to his station, he specially explained to Lan'er and Yan Erniang in private that he must let Xiong Chu make up his mind.

Things have developed to the point where they are, and if we continue to hesitate, disaster is coming. Now, after the expansion of the army, the total number of troops has reached 40,000.

If once the bear prince picks a son, and more than 40,000 troops form a straggler, it will be a disaster for the township. It's really to the point where it's out of control at the end, and that's the big trouble.

Prince Xiong hesitated because he didn't want to cause too much murder in the Central Plains. Now that he has come to the land of the Southern Barbarians, and Prince Xiong knows that the whole of Myanmar and Laos has been out of the control of the Ming Dynasty, he has long been a little impatient.

If you can't recover the lost land, you will be ashamed of your ancestors.

Based on this understanding, Xiong Chu would take the lead in expanding his army by 4,500 people before, striving to gain a foothold and increase his strength. Then wave his army south, completely destroy those rebels, and regain the land.

This is the great righteousness of the country, and Prince Xiong believes that he has no way out at all.

Even if there was an abyss in front of him, and he would fall to pieces, Xiong Chu was not prepared to take half a step back.

In order to achieve the strategic goal of recovering the country, Xiong Chu has made up his mind in his heart: no matter who stands in his way, he must go all out to kill him.

Seeing Lan'er and Yan Erniang, who he cared about the most, jumped away, Prince Xiong retracted his thoughts and began to plan the reorganization of the new barracks.

The military advisor Wan Lian is the main force on the side, and Xiong Chu has already let them develop on their own.

Although his side is a partial division, in the current situation, he must also do his best to form a greater combat effectiveness.

Fortunately, when the military master Wan Lian came over, he was already prepared.

This preparation is the Kong Ming Ballista Car.

Kong Ming's ballista cart was still captured from the Tang Sect in Guangyuan County, and then the craftsman battalion remade the things after being perfected.

The one-wheeled Kongming crossbow cart can fire twelve iron crossbow arrows, three spare crossbow bows, and three hundred and sixty iron crossbow arrows and copper crossbow arrows at a time.

A Kong Ming crossbow cart has four people, one person pushes the cart and one pulls the cart when marching, and two people act as protection on the side. When fighting, two men draw their bows and two men load their arrows.

Kong Ming's ballista cart can shoot more than 400 steps, that is, 200 zhang away, which is much more powerful than a bird's gun.

Moreover, the iron crossbow arrow has extremely strong penetration and greater lethality, and is a great killing weapon against the enemy's cavalry and dense charging phalanx, second only to the tiger squat cannon.

However, the Kong Ming ballista cart has a faster firing speed than the Tiger Squat Cannon, and it can be immediately put into battle regardless of the terrain, so Xiong Chu and Wan Lian decided to produce it in large quantities.

The biggest advantage of Kong Ming's ballista is that it does not need to be specially trained in archery, as long as it has great strength and can pull the crossbow away, it can exert its combat effectiveness.

This time, Wan Lian came over and brought one hundred and fifty Kong Ming ballista carts, so Xiong Chu decided to form his own crossbow and arrow battalion.

Of these, 600 were archers, 600 were heavy soldiers, 600 were bird-bearers, and 600 were cavalry archers, making a total of 2,400 men.

The commander Situ Bao and the deputy commander Han Tianlin were the backbone of the 600 guards of the original "Jingde Villa".

Xiong Chu was nervously preparing for war here, and the smoke of gunpowder was already everywhere outside, and the world was turned upside down, which caught him a little off guard.
