Wearing a county magistrate to build infrastructure

Shen Yiran stood outside the door with his sword in his arms. The general said he was sick and left Nanzhou, and he was going north to Dongzhou to find Yan or Prime Minister Yan.But before they left the border of Nanzhou, they received news of an accident in Kaiyun Mansion.

Although the news came from Haitang, the person mentioned in the news caught the attention of General Jing, and it was Tang Zisheng again.

Originally, they planned to wait until they had gone to the Imperial City of Dongzhou before turning around and visiting Cang'er County of Xizhou, but now the plan had to be changed, so they went straight to Kaiyun Mansion.

Fortunately, the news was received early. Although the Kaiyun Mansion was in chaos when they arrived, they started to make arrangements after receiving the news. The situation was not too critical, but the original team of the Kaiyun Mansion could not be kept.

"Yi Ran." A voice came from inside the room.

"Subordinates are here."

...The identity switch was rather quick, "You go to Tang Zisheng, follow him first, he is estimated to return to Cang'er County in a short time, and Mr. Zhang and I will stay here to finish, and I will go to find Tang Zisheng after we are done. you."

"Yes." Shen Yiran didn't ask much, and disappeared into the yard. They found Tang Zisheng's residence after they arrived at Kaiyun Mansion, and it was not difficult to find it.

"The general thinks so much of this young man named Tang Zisheng?" Counselor Zhang stroked his mustache and sent the young man who had always been treated like a son.

"He left such a big impression on me before I met him. If he is the only one, why not if he has good conduct?" Anyway, he has no children, and Yiran's temperament is not enough to sit in that position.

Counselor Zhang thought about it carefully, and understood the general's concerns, "Yes."

Shen Yiran, who didn't know that he was going to be married, went to the yard and stood quietly in the corner. The three people in the yard didn't notice his existence.

"The things have been counted, and we can leave tomorrow, but you really don't plan to take care of Qin Changyuan?"

Zhou Nanchuan thought of Tang Zisheng's words about building the city. If Qin Changyuan could really take it for his own use, they would be much more relaxed.

"It was possible before, but not now." Tang Zisheng didn't have that much ability. Although he felt a pity to lose such a talent, many things in the world can't be perfect, so he can't force it.

"It's not difficult for you to keep that person." Shen Yiran appeared from the shadows.

"Guard Shen?" Tang Zisheng looked at the person who suddenly appeared in surprise, "The general asked you to handle the matter of Kaiyun Mansion?"

Then Kaiyun Mansion is not going to be finished.

"No, the general came here in person, the general told me to come here, and he will go to Cang'er County to see you after Kaiyun's business." Shen Yiran felt that Tang Zisheng had something to say.

"So that's how it is." But the small Kaiyun Mansion is about to dispatch generals, isn't it too much of a fuss?

But since the general wants to see him, he will definitely know more things during the conversation. Now he doesn't need to inquire so clearly, and Shen Yiran probably won't say it.

"In that case, let's leave this afternoon." Tang Zisheng changed his mind, the general had already arrived at Kai Yun, and he had to go back to prepare to receive the lord.

"I don't care, things are ready, you can go now." Zhou Nanchuan shrugged.

"The weather is starting to cool down now, so it's good to go in the afternoon." Xu Qingcheng has long been homesick, and he doesn't know how his father has been at home alone for more than ten days.

"Then get ready, tell me the person you want to protect, and I'll send a message to the general." Shen Yiran did not forget the news he heard before.

"So, thank you, Guard Shen."

Cang'er County, military camp.

Miao Xunjian is discussing the expenses with Fang Hushu, "The daily food consumption of 1000 people is not a small amount. I wonder if the county government has enough reserves?"

Fang Hushu nodded, the grain in the granary was quite sufficient, except for the batch he bought before, there was still a batch of grain in the county government granary, the quality was inferior, but the quantity was quite a lot.

This is also thanks to the timidity of the previous household secretary, who is afraid that the higher-ups will come and search suddenly, and he will lose his head.

"Does the construction of the military house still need silver taels?" Fang Hushu looked at the rows of small single-family houses built in the corner of the barracks. They were all made of wood, and the builders were recruits from the previous batch. not big.

"No need for the time being. The house Mr. Tang asked to come and build can accommodate many people. If 500 more people come, it's just a few more houses, and it doesn't cost much."

Inspector Miao waved his hand. He also knew that there was not much money in the books of the county government, so it was better to save it for the soldiers to arrange meals for the soldiers in the future.

"If that's the case, I'll go back first." Fang Hushu had to go to Shitou Village, and the villagers there needed some money from the county to settle down.

"Fang Hushu, go away." Inspector Miao sent people out and returned to the training ground. 1000 people are not too many for the army.

But when you think about it, there are only about 5000 people in Cang'er County, which accounts for almost one-fifth of Cang'er County.

Fortunately, the place chosen was very remote at that time, otherwise people would find out that the noise of these soldiers' daily training was not uniform.

"Miaotou, when will you tell the county magistrate to equip these recruits with weapons, and it's not a problem to train with wooden sticks every day."

One of the centurions came over. He had been on the battlefield before and had seen the blood of foreigners in his hands. Now he was able to return to his old job for his livelihood.

But the recruits didn't have any foundation before, even if they used the set of military training in the barracks, the effect would definitely not be good enough.

"It's not urgent. Buying weapons always costs money. You also know that our county magistrate is now raising about a thousand people. After buying weapons, the daily food will not be enough, but don't worry too much. Well, there are quite a few people who can blacksmith have gathered in Stone Village, as long as iron ore is found in our territory, then there are as many weapons as you want."

"That's true. It's just that the iron mines are hard to find. As far as I remember, there are only two iron mines in Shunhe Mansion, and they are heavily guarded."

"That's the reason, but adults can always solve it. If you really feel that the training of these soldiers is not in place, let's add another one later, let them go to the mountains in groups to fight wild boars. This is how I trained my skills before."

Miao Xunjian had only learned a few moves before, but now he was able to fight that all because he practiced fighting wild boars to satisfy the greed of the people below.

"It can be done, but the wild boars in the mountains can't stand our killing, at least there are a thousand people." A group of five people is going to hunt and kill two hundred wild boars.

No matter how strong the ability of wild boars to reproduce, they cannot keep up with the speed of their elimination.What's more, there are wild boars all over the mountains, and wild boars are not only wandering around them. Sometimes they may not be able to find these animals after going up the mountain for a whole day.

"There are also wolves, tigers, and blind bears in the mountains. These are all people who can practice their hands. You need to ask me about the reason."

There are a lot of wild animals in the deep mountains, and they are wild and difficult to train, but it is a good place to practice, "But they still have to practice. Now they go to the mountains to fight with Xiong Xiazi, and only those who are slapped to death by Xiong Xiazi share."

"In just a few days, you guys are already discussing going to the mountains to fight the blind man. What am I missing?"

Inspector Miao and the centurion suddenly heard a strange voice, turned their heads, and inspector Miao became excited, "Master Tang, why are you here? Didn't you go to Kaiyun Mansion?"

"I'm back, let's drop by to have a look." Tang Zisheng looked over like this. The place is open and has been repaired and it really looks decent. "But I'm troubled because of the weapons."

"Hehe." Inspector Miao grabbed a handful of hair and said nothing, it was right, but they couldn't say it.

"It will not happen overnight to solve the issue of weapons, but this kind of training is indeed not enough."

Tang Zisheng already had a training plan in his heart. The reason why he didn't come up with it at the beginning was because he knew that these refugees had been starving for a long time, and many of them were in poor health. For this reason, he let it go for a while, and now he came here because the time had come.

"Then, what does your lord mean?" Inspector Miao asked cautiously.

"If you don't have weapons, you should first develop your physical fitness. People don't always have weapons in their hands. If you can practice with bare hands and then add weapons when you are fighting with your bare hands, it is called adding wings to a tiger."

As for physical training, Tang Zisheng has a lot of items on his mind - weight-bearing training, push-ups, leapfrog, and obstacle cross-country.

"My lord is right. After that, what about going to the mountains to hunt wild boars for training?"

"It can also be planned as part of the training. Wild boars have strong reproductive ability. It is best for you to enclose a mountain range to raise them. However, not everyone has the opportunity to go to the mountains to hunt wild boars. Set one or two days a month and 1000 Every five people form a team, and they have played team by team on the training platform, and only ten teams are given places.

The top ten teams that win can go to the mountains to challenge the wild boars. If they can fight back the wild boars, everyone in the first team will get an extra ten catties of wild boars. "

There is incentive to be motivated, and ten catties of wild pork does not seem to be much.But in this day and age, meat is precious. Even if they don't eat it, they can still send it back to Shitou Village for their families to eat.

"It's a good idea, but there are always some veterans in the military camp who are unwilling to work hard, so how about taking a bite of the wild pork that someone else brought in, or the ten teams in the back will not be able to eat wild pork?" Miao inspected quickly The loopholes in this plan were discovered and solutions were prepared.

"You can try to arrange it like this first, but when you are divided into groups, you must not combine strong teams. The strength of the team is better to be even. Otherwise, it will be meaningless if only those few win."

And there are strong people in the team, some people who want to steal and play tricks are not so easy.

"Okay, just do it."

After Tang Zisheng made arrangements, he walked into the barracks, talking about the imperfections of the barracks as he walked, "I will arrange some people to patrol the vicinity in the future. The barracks is an important place to prevent others from entering."

Inspector Miao nodded. Originally, there were patrolling people around, just a few soldiers following him.

But today he sent people to go up the mountain to hunt wild boars. He didn't expect to be caught by the adults at this moment. It can be seen that this kind of thing is really not slack at all.

"Do you still have the habit of living in the house?" Tang Zisheng looked at the rows of houses. Based on the inspiration he got from the student dormitory, he could easily arrange for 1000 people.

"I'm used to it. This is a bed for one person. When we were marching, we used to squeeze a tent with a dozen people, and we would fight when we slept." The centurion who followed at the side finally spoke.

Now a room sleeps eight people, and there are tables and cabinets, but I don't know how it is going to be.

Although I will definitely live in tents when marching in the future, there is no way to do it. When I settle down and have such a place to go, no matter how hard life is, there are times when it is sweet.

"Take me to the house to have a look." Tang Zisheng is a man, and he understands men even more. There are eight people in a room, and there are daily trainings.

But since it was requested by the army, that person's hygiene must also meet the standards.

The centurion and Inspector Miao hesitated for a while, and Inspector Miao slapped his mouth and said in a low voice, "Hey, Mr. Tang, don't go in this room, it's full of old men crowded into one room, it doesn't smell very good smell."

"I know, so I'm going to see how dirty it is." Tang Zisheng signaled inspector Miao to open the door. Inspector Miao gave the centurion another look. I can only bite the bullet and open it.

Tang Zisheng didn't enter the house, so he took a look at the door. The chaos in the house was predictable, and the smell was also predictable, so Tang Zisheng looked at inspector Miao expressionlessly.

"Well, my lord, you also know that our rough people are not like brothers, and the daily training is so hard that there is no time to do these things. If they can't bear it, they will clean up by themselves." Inspector Miao said for the people below good words.

"What I want is a well-disciplined army, not people who can't even do this little thing. It was fine before, but if anyone fails to do it on time after the rules are established from today, they will be punished to continue practicing during the break. Those who refuse to mend their ways will be driven out of the barracks."

"This, my lord, it can't be so serious." Inspector Miao immediately widened his eyes when he heard that he was going to drive people out. If this person was driven out to reveal their secrets, wouldn't it be...

Tang Zisheng glanced sideways at the two of them, and said in a serious tone, "The population of the military camp is crowded, and I think you also know why the refugees are very easy to breed diseases when they gather together. It is said that I will be able to treat their diseases in the future." .But when there are too many people, guess I will use the imperial court’s method to cure the disease.”

According to the order of the Great Yu Law, if there is no rescue from severe epidemics, they will be killed.

Inspector Miao moved his lips, but he also found that there was no way to refute it. Master Tang's request was also for their own good.

"Since you are officers, you must lead by example. At the same time, you tell them that the clothes and bedding they change will be sent to Shishi Village, and they will be paid every time. If you want to make life easier for your family, you'd better do what I ask, who Any objection will be dealt with by military law."

Tang Zisheng turned and left, and went to the place where inspector Miao set up his office.Since it is necessary to establish rules, it is just to set the military discipline. He gave enough time to stock up before, but it does not mean that he will continue to stock up in the future.

"Miaotou, this, didn't you say that Mr. Tang has a good temper? This seems to be stronger than my previous superiors. I didn't dare to say anything when Mr. Tang said just now." The centurion quietly approached inspector Miao to speak.

"Then it's also the first time I've seen Mr. Tang get so angry, but what he said is right, can the houses where soldiers live now still be called houses? It's flattering to call them pig's nests. If outsiders are allowed in, who would believe that this is a pig's house?" army.

Eating the white rice given by the adults, living a stable life given by the adults, and the adults have settled down their family members. If they don't put in some hard work, they really think that there is nothing wrong with it. "

"I'm also afraid that the military discipline will be too strict all of a sudden, and it will be bad for someone to rebel."

"If that's the case, then it's even more impossible to stay, because of these things, it will be reversed. It can be seen that it is an ungrateful person. Such a person will cause endless harm if he stays in the military camp. Moreover, Mr. Tang also said that if he changes more often, he will provide for his family. Don’t be ignorant of the opportunity to make money.”

Inspector Miao had already digested what Tang Zisheng said, and it was indeed reasonable. They would not be able to control any epidemics in the barracks if this continued.

What's more, which of the famous armies in history is not strictly disciplined. If it is really loose, it will not win the battle.

"That's right, with my brothers under the pressure, these guys can't figure out any tricks. I think Mr. Tang did this because he wanted to test our veterans. We will definitely handle this matter."

"Okay, let's go to the training ground first and call the other centurions over. Later, Master Tang will set the military discipline, and we will respond directly. But you should give them a thorough understanding in advance, or you will be in front of Master Tang. Besides, just wait for the army stick."

"Hey, I'll go right away. Our centurions have all served as soldiers, and they are more resistant than those recruits. Among other things, as long as it is a military order, we will naturally obey it unconditionally."

"Row."

After inspector Miao finished discussing outside, he lingered a few steps outside the door before he dared to enter the house.

He has military affairs in his room, so naturally he also has a desk for writing.Although he was born as a general, he was also required to be able to read and write, but his handwriting was not very good.

Tang Zisheng has already begun to write, so there are naturally many military discipline regulations.But the first thing is to obey the orders of the superiors. He has never led troops to fight, and everything he knows is obtained through various entertainment methods. After that, he must discuss the regulations with the veterans who have led the army.

"How does it feel to be in charge of 1000 people now?" Tang Zisheng said while writing.

When Xunjian Miao was asked this question, his original apprehension suddenly disappeared, and he answered this question without the slightest hesitation, "It's the best, but it's only limited to this."

He is not expected to be a general, at most he can be a small boss. This is because he has nothing to do when he is guarding the pass, and he has nothing to do. He has nothing to do. What is important is a big event, and the incompetent must see his own strength clearly in order to make the most of it.

"I won't be recruiting soldiers in a short time. I want you to train these 1000 people to become elite soldiers. Can you do it?"

The world is not in chaos, he needs to raise his troops and store up his energy, but the first batch of soldiers and horses have not been managed well, and if he recruits again, he will cause trouble for himself.

Fortunately, there is still time for him to pass the time, and he doesn't plan to make any big moves for half a year.

"can."

"It's good, I don't have anyone who can be a general under my command. Such generals are hard to come by, so you should pay more attention to them in the army." Leading soldiers in battle, being seasoned is one thing, and talent is another. thing.

"My lord, I noticed this old Miao first. Among the 1000 people now, eight or nine of them have been privately praised by several veterans during training. Especially one of them looks like a thin bamboo pole." , but fighting on the stage is ruthless."

Tang Zisheng's writing action remains the same, which is expected, 1000 people, no matter what, can knock out a person with some talent, "Being able to fight may not be able to lead troops."

An enemy of ten thousand people and a general are not the same thing.

"That's something you don't know, my lord. The reason why that kid fights so hard is because he looks like a brother. He doesn't look like a kid. After training, he didn't know what to say, and he offended that kid with his words. It turned out to be a good thing, that kid wrote down all the people who said about him, and when he was about to fight on stage on weekdays, he pointed out and beat them up one by one, and now they have become brothers again."

Inspector Miao found out that this person has skills and ability, and he is still young, so he should be trained well, not to mention becoming a general in command in the future, but he must be a general.

Tang Zisheng frowned, and then calmed down. In fact, it is not a day or two that there is such discrimination in the military camp.

But this matter is hard to manage, the best way is to fight back fiercely, otherwise the private ostracism will not be able to intervene.

This is the law of survival in the barracks.

"What's his name?"

"The kid is called Ashin, no surname, born as an orphan. When I picked it up in the city, he was dressed like a beggar. But sometimes he behaves a bit like he was raised by a wealthy family. It is estimated that he was also a young master before. It is only through sudden changes that this virtue can be established."

"Call in a few centurions first, and the matter of military discipline is still under discussion. As for the Ashin you mentioned, wait for the new training plan to be finalized, and then inspect and investigate. If it is really a good talent, then promote it."

"Yes, my lord."

-

"Master Xu, Baihe Village is here, do you want to get off here or we will send it to the door." Tang Mo asked outside the door.

"It's enough to get here, thank you for sending me off." Xu Qingcheng jumped out of the carriage. It was the first time he had been away from Baihe Village for so long. Now that he came back, he felt so close.

Tang Mo and the others stood guard at the entrance of the village. After seeing that Mr. Xu could not be seen at all, they took the carriage back to the barracks again.

Xu Qingcheng walked very fast, and he didn't stop when he met a villager or two on the road.It wasn't until he reached the door of his own house that he quickly ran over and knocked on the door.

After a while, the door was opened, revealing Xu Yingle's slightly pale face.

"Father, but the illness happened again." Seeing that his father's expression was not right, Xu Qingcheng hurried in, supported Xu Yingle with one hand, and went into the house.

"It doesn't matter, it's just the wind and cold a few days ago, and I haven't recovered yet." Xu Yingle shook his head lightly, "Why, this time I went away for more than ten days, and I just came back after playing around in Kaiyun Mansion, but I forgot about my father. "

"It's nothing, it's just that something happened to Kaiyun Mansion. So I had to stay a little longer, and I didn't forget my father. Here, this is the hairpin I saw in Kaiyun Mansion. I saw it. That's when I thought it was suitable for my father."

Xu Qingcheng and Tang Zisheng had also been shopping in Kaiyun Mansion for a while. This hairpin was bought at that time. The shape of the hairpin is complicated, and the hairpin is very beautiful. It took less than half of his savings in his small treasury to get it.

Xu Yingle was taken aback when he saw the hairpin, the style of the hairpin looked familiar.If he remembers correctly, it is very similar to the one he lost many years ago, but the material is different.

That hairpin is gold hairpin, this one is silver hairpin mixed with some other things.

So are you worthy of father and son?The aesthetics are so similar.

"Does Daddy like it?" Seeing that Daddy didn't take over for a long time, Xu Qingcheng felt a little uneasy, feeling that Daddy was in a bad mood this time.

"I like it. I like everything my brother gave me." Xu Yingle took it and held it firmly. He couldn't keep the one from many years ago, but this time his brother gave it to him, he will definitely hold it firmly.

Xu Qingcheng suppressed the doubts in his heart, this is not the time to continue to question, father will look extremely haggard, it is better to coax him to sleep.

"Daddy, go into the house to rest. I'll do the housework. After more than ten days of rest, my hands are already itchy." Xu Qingcheng pushed someone into the house.

Occasionally, I felt a cold, so my father definitely didn't go to see a doctor, even if he didn't even drink the medicine to cure the wind and cold, he would go to the foot of the mountain to dig some Radix Banlangen and come back later, my father was weak, so he couldn't do without medicine.

Xu Yingle was pushed to the bed, and said with a helpless smile, "I've had enough rest, didn't I promise you to go to Kaiyun Mansion and tell you what I kept from you before, don't you want to hear it now?"

"There will be opportunities to hear about that in the future, but now it's still important for Dad's health." Xu Qingcheng refused.

"If you don't listen today, I'll talk about it later when I'm in a good mood. Think about it?" Xu Yingle knocked Qingcheng's head.

"Think about it, anyway, it's an old thing, even if I know it, I can't change anything, it's more important to be my father now." Xu Qingcheng was stubborn.

Xu Yingle had no choice but to agree, and lay down on the bed. Both he and Qingcheng's father were stubborn in their characters, and Qingcheng inherited this point ten to ten.But there are some people who like Qingcheng's stubbornness now.

By the way, I forgot to ask Qingcheng what happened with him and Tang Zisheng.
