Chapter 219 Conscription! My aunt becomes a concubine?
Huang Laifu sat in the carriage and looked at the pedestrians walking outside. In addition to the locals, a large number of people from other places were from other places. Over the years, more and more people from other places have flocked to Wuzhaibao. Seeing Huang Laifu coming over, the familiar locals bowed respectfully to the carriages and horses. The outsiders were flashing aside, whispering and pointing.
Over the years, a wave of worship of Huang Laifu has emerged in Wuzhai Fort, and many people have placed Huang Laifu's longevity tablets and portraits in their homes. This is the case for the locals, and if outsiders want to integrate into the Wuzhai Fort, they must do so. Not to mention Wuzhai Fort, even Shenchi Fort, Laoying Fort, Kelanzhou and other places, locals have also emerged to invite a portrait of Huang Laifu back to be a door god and paste it on the bedside door to ward off evil spirits.
However, the longevity tablet is easy to say. Huang Laifu looked like himself no matter how he looked at it. He was wearing iron helmets and armor, holding a Guan Gong knife in his hand, Jiang Dazhong and Yang Xiaolu were wearing armor and guarding him with a beard on his face, with a majestic appearance, like a fifty-year-old uncle, not like himself. However, this is the simple intention of the people, so Huang Laifu was left to them.
The carriage and horses passed by, and looked at the servants in front and behind the guards. The outsiders were all shocked. Oh my god, these soldiers from Wuzhai Fort are already the most powerful Ming army that everyone has ever seen. Unexpectedly, the servants of Huangjun Gate were even more powerful when they came. Yesterday, when Huangjun Gate led hundreds of iron-armored cavalry to Wuzhai Fort, the guys rushed to the city first, passing messages to each other like looking at a diorama, which was the pure man.
Looking out the street, it was still early and there were not many pedestrians, but at the registration points of some towns on the street, there were already people full of people.
Huang Laifu implemented a three-level training system. Young and middle-aged people from all over the country first joined the Wuzhaibao military household registration and absorbed them as farm garrisons, and practiced in their spare time. Excellent garrisons were absorbed into the army, and then excellent soldiers were absorbed into the servants. Huang Laifu's army implemented a retirement system. After five years of joining the army, if the soldiers wanted to retire, they could receive a 20 taels of silver in one go, as well as the previous beheading silver provident fund, and retired gloriously. Wuzhaibao will arrange work for them and provide care for them in many aspects.
Several years have passed, and some soldiers have retired one after another. Because the Wuzhai Fort army is well treated, all kinds of pensions and rewards are very attractive, and there are good back-up guarantees, this has attracted a large number of young and middle-aged people to join, especially those outsiders who came to Wuzhai Fort. Moreover, everyone has also heard that Wuzhai Fort will have to open a police force to maintain public order in various parts of Wuzhai Fort, and the treatment is also very good. This has attracted a large number of attention.
However, there are few retired people and many people want to join. They must become local farms in advance and have local household registration. Because soldiers must be born from the local town to ensure the loyalty of the soldiers to Huang Laifu and Wuzhai Fort, even the police have to choose from retired soldiers or local towns. Therefore, the recruitment of local towns in each farm at the end of each year has become a popular local and surrounding Wuzhai Fort.
Since the troops of Wuzhai Fort farms have been stable at present, there are not many quotas for the soldiers in the garrison, which has become a "hot commodity" that many people compete for, and thus some "back doors" have also emerged. Many people have reported that "it is not ordinary difficult to be a garrison, but it is even more difficult to be a soldier in the garrison!" and "It is difficult to get in without a background at home."
In order to prevent such situations from happening, the solution is to have only open and transparent selection mechanisms, and there are only more farms to open. After all, the operation of various farms outside the Great Wall is in full swing.
The Wuzhaibao Newspaper has called on: "Young and middle-aged people to go to Bajiao Fort, to Laoying Fort, to Baianguan, to outside the border!"
"Famous reputation is obtained outside the border, don't be a sissy in the pass!"
Seeing such a hot situation, Huang Laifu was naturally satisfied. The soldiers of other places were scrambling to flee, with only their own jurisdiction, and young and middle-aged people were scrambling to enter the military system. The new atmosphere of Wuzhai Fort will naturally attract the attention of those who are interested. Many military fort towns wanted to imitate the successful experience of Wuzhai Fort, but they found that if they wanted to introduce the Wuzhai Fort system, they must have a certain amount of financial resources, which many people could not do.
...
Soon, Huang Laifu's carriage and horses arrived in the official office. The current military affairs of Wuzhai Fort are managed by Jiang Dazhong. In addition to military affairs, the local government naturally also has civil affairs. Therefore, Jiang Dazhong and the directors of the Wuzhai Fort bureaus of Huang Laifu's shogunate had already been waiting in the official office. Seeing Huang Lingbin accompanying Huang Laifu, everyone was stunned and then returned to peace. As Huang Laifu's younger brother, it was natural for him to participate in the affairs of Wuzhai Fort.
In the crowd, Huang Laifu glanced at him and saw Wang Qinian and Zhou Wendong gathered together and whispering, with a very vivid expression in his expression. In my memory, Wang Qinian was a depressed person, but it seemed like a second spring in the past two years. Huang Laifu heard that he had an affair with a woman named Bai Xiuxiu, and it seemed that he was his former lover.
I heard that Bai Xiuxiu seemed to be a married woman and had a daughter?... But Huang Laifu has always been too lazy to care about this kind of private life of subordinates. He has an affair with other people's wife, what does it have to do with him?
In the conference hall, Huang Laifu sat in the middle, and Huang Lingbin sat a little restrainedly on the side and listened. The subordinates sat on both sides and gathered together.
"Military Gate, 315 people have retired from our five camps this year. If Xinzhai recruits sergeants from the Tun Dingzhong, it will take more than 1,500 taels of silver from the Anjiao, as well as the armor and weapons of the soldiers, and they will also need to be allocated immediately!"
Jiang Dazhong talked about the military affairs of Wuzhai Fort for a while, then stood up and bowed to Huang Laifu.
Huang Laifu nodded and said to He Ruzhen, the leader,: "He Qianshi, this matter will be left to you!"
At Wuzhai Fort, He Ruzhen, the son of He Qianhu, is in charge of logistics, training, conscription and other matters in various places. This guy is loyal and meticulous, so Huang Laifu has handed over the logistics work with confidence to him. At present, he is the commander of Wuzhai Guards and has the title of garrison. Although he is not as good as Jiang Dazhong, even Jiang Dazhong must be honest in front of He Ruzhen.
He Ruzhen stood up, just clasped his fists and said, "I respect you in a humble position!"
Huang Laifu said: "There are still recruiting soldiers from various battalions, and their retirement matters must be handled in a step-by-step manner. The soldiers recruited must also be trained to make them one of our iron-blooded soldiers as soon as possible!"
He Ruzhen said: "I understand the humble vocation!"
Huang Laifu pondered for a while and said, "Now my Wuzhai Fort is going to set up a police force to manage the public security inside and outside the fort. I see that these police officers should be selected from the retired soldiers first. This matter will be managed by He Qianshi. In the future, the public security and regular army in the fort will not be involved, just concentrate on the war!"
Jiang Dazhong and He Ruzhen both shouted loudly: "As for the order of humble duties!"
Those who are capable work hard. Although Heru Town is busy, Huang Laifu has no suitable candidates for the time being. Moreover, such key departments such as military police cannot be handed over to the old officers to handle it well. They can only be busy with civil affairs inside and outside the fort, but young people like Heru Town will handle it well. When they have a suitable candidate in the future, He Chaoxun is proud to see that his son is highly valued by Huang Laifu.
Everyone discussed the matter for a while, and Huang Laifu said to Ma Wencai, director of the Wuzhaibao Propaganda Bureau: "At present, some literati in Beijing and various places have a lot of criticism about the emperor's mining tax collection. As a model of loyalty to the emperor's country, our Wuzhaibao naturally has to stand on the side of the emperor... Director Ma, you arrange some people to blow the wind in the newspaper, make your own voice, criticize the ugly behavior of those selfish villains, and support the emperor! Let the world know that the emperor's orders for mining tax collection is very necessary, and it is a good thing that benefits the country and the people... Also, you can arrange as soon as possible to set up a branch of the Wuzhaibao Newspaper in the capital. I will ask Yun Niang to give you some money to open this branch in the future more grandly and more powerfully. In the local area, you can also recruit a group of people to protect the safety of the newspaper staff!"
The commotion that Emperor Wanli ordered the mining of the world to be opened also reached Wuzhai Fort, but in this place, it was Huang Laifu's territory, so naturally he could not hear any opposition. However, Huang Laifu believed that if he could not make small fuss in Wuzhai Fort, he would still have to go out and make his own voice boldly. In the future, he would have to occupy the public opinion market in the capital. After all, it was the center of the world.
Ma Wencai was happy and said loudly: "I understand, I will do it as soon as possible!"
Huang Laifu nodded with satisfaction.
After the meeting, Huang Laifu, accompanied by everyone, inspected the military camp affairs inside and outside Wuzhai Fort and the city, and comforted the officers and soldiers of Wuzhai Fort. When the old commander came back, the soldiers were very excited.
Especially in the military factory of Wuzhaibao Military Weapon Bureau, Huang Laifu stopped to take a closer look.
At present, the Wuzhaibao military factory can produce a large number of muskets, hand guns, swords, guns, shields, armor and military uniforms, cowhide boots every year. Since Huang Laifu outsourced some unimportant parts to some surrounding merchants to produce, the production speed of weapons is getting faster and faster. In addition, the Wuzhaibao military weapons are well managed and of excellent quality, and many military towns and garrisons have begun to purchase weapons from the Wuzhaibao Military Weapon Bureau. In addition, immigrants outside the Great Wall require a large number of weapons and equipment, which has expanded the scale of the Wuzhaibao military factory.
Since the development of the Flintlock rifle of the Wuzhai Fort on the 2nd day, the Wuzhai Fort Military Weapon Bureau has manufactured more than 2,000 flintlock rifle, which is very popular among the soldiers.
However, the current Wuzhai Fort Flintlock Muskets, in addition to fighting in rainy days, also reduces the loading process, have the power range of the same as the flint bird gun, and they pursue farther and accurate than the bow and arrow. After all, according to Qi Jiguang's combat method, when encountering enemies, they will fire hundreds of guns, and fire bird guns within a hundred steps, and shoot arrows only when they are sixty steps. Because the main enemies of the Ming Dynasty are now Mongols wearing leather armor or Japanese wearing simple armor, the range and power of the bird gun is enough.
However, Huang Laifu didn't know whether he would fight against Europeans and Manchus in the future. These guys were all wearing heavy armor, especially the heavy armored cavalry of Manchus, and were wearing double armor. Whether the power of the muskets was enough in the future is a question. However, according to the history of the Europeans, their musket barrels were getting bigger and bigger, but the range was getting closer and closer. Even in the Napoleon era, the Western flintlock muskets, who had fired ten guns at 100 meters, could not hit the target once. Only when standing at 50 meters and lined up in close formations can they show their power. This is why in Western movies, they always saw Europeans standing within a distance of 50 meters, divided into two sides, and they were so stupid that they fired the guns at the same time.
Also, I have built a tunnel gun myself. In the future, I can also put it on the agenda by firing paper-based breech guns, which can be fired and loaded with bullets. However, this requires a high-precision bore locking device to ensure that there is no air leakage. I wonder if it will take hundreds of years to study it with the current technological power of the Ming Dynasty.
Let’s talk about this kind of thing slowly in the future. Anyway, there are the current tunnel-beaked bird-beak guns, which are already very advanced around the Ming Dynasty.
Today, Huang Laifu was just inspecting all parts of the fort, but when he returned to his mansion, it was too late. Huang Lingbin was indeed a scholar. He just ran with Huang Laifu and was exhausted when he returned home. However, after a day, he still had a lot of experience and gained something, and he also realized the difficulty behind the scenes of being in front of his elder brother.
After having a meal, Huang Lingbin went to bed. After Huang Laifu handled some government affairs, he also went to Gu Yunniang's room to rest. After all, Gu Yunniang was the wife of the main wife. Huang Laifu returned to Wuzhaibao for a few days. Even if Qu Xiuhe, Liu Yumei, Meiyue, Liu Huan and the girls each take one night, Gu Yunniang should have two nights.
Gu Yunniang had already prepared hot water and served Huang Laifu in the bath. The couple took a couple bath. In the bathtub, they did it once. When they returned to the room, they did it again...
After her happiness, Gu Yunniang was naked, her arms were tightly wrapped around Huang Laifu's neck, and a large area of her snowy skin was exposed outside. She lay intoxicatedly on Huang Laifu's chest, and her whole body seemed to have all bones removed, but she just collapsed softly on Huang Laifu and didn't want to move.
Huang Laifu looked at this lovely man and smiled and said, "Madam, you are becoming more and more coquettish. Do you want to squeeze your husband dry?"
Gu Yunniangyu fainted on her cheeks and said coquettishly: "Hate, say that!" After a pause, she said hatefully: "Put you dry, so that's it, so that you can save you from having the energy to seduce other women and neglect our sisters!"
Huang Laifu couldn't help laughing. Although Gu Yunniang had been married for a few years and had become much quieter in the past few years, she still had some of the slutty she was as a girl. He kissed her lightly on her face and sighed: "For the husband, you have to be busy with internal and external affairs, and you have to deal with your wives and concubines. I have long been powerless, so how can I have time to find another woman?"
Gu Yunniang rolled her eyes and said, "I'm also saying, you not only seduce other women, but also rabbits eat grass beside their nests, and they don't even let go of your sister-in-law!"
Huang Laifu said strangely: "Who is it, what sister-in-law, why don't I know?"
Gu Yunniang twisted Huang Laifu's body, pinched his cheek, and said angrily: "Who else, is Liu Erniu? This girl, the look of you looks weird. Why didn't you seduce her?"
Huang Laifu said: "So it's her. Don't talk nonsense. I and her are innocent!"
Gu Yunniang glanced sharply on Huang Laifu's face and said seriously: "The girl's feelings for you are all in our mansion. She is not young anymore. Now that she lives in the mansion like this, no one dares to ask her. Why don't you take her into the door and be your concubine with you? But I said, this is the last one, and you won't be allowed to seduce other women in the future!"
Liu Erniu and Gu Yunniang also observed that even if she served Huang Laifu with her sister Liu Yumei, she would not threaten her status in the future. So Gu Yunniang didn't mind Huang Laifu having another concubine. Gu Yunniang's principle is that Huang Laifu can take a concubine, but she must take charge of this candidate, and the relevant personnel also need to be controlled by themselves.
Huang Laifu said: "Then let me arrange it, my wife, it doesn't matter to me!"
Gu Yunniang took a bite on Huang Laifu's chest with hatred and said, "I'm still behaved when I get the advantage. Another beautiful woman who is as beautiful as a flower is going to be ruined by you!"
Huang Laifu said: "Oh, how dare you bite me?"
