Chapter 284 Can only be used by me, Zhang Cheng

In the left side hall of the front yard of the back hall of the general's official office, Shangbei Road, Xuanzhen Town.

Wei Zhice said: "General, Zhice will discuss with the two town governors tomorrow, and the Zhenfu Department and the Shipping Department will jointly call the staff from the Experience Department of the Wei Division to conduct a round of inventory checks on all the forts and warehouses on Shangbei Road. , First sort out the number of stocks, know your own property, and then make arrangements for what to do in the future."

"Well, Zhice is very thoughtful, and you can set up the car frame, craftsmanship, and firearms under your luggage department at the Yunzhou craftsman camp. The old man Shi Tiegen is an old craftsman.
Take another look, if it is suitable, you can ask him to be the deputy head of the luggage department, and stay in Yunzhou to take charge of the craftsmen's affairs of each department. assessment,

Divide them into first, second and third grades according to their skills. Different grades will lead to different wages and silver rewards, so as to encourage them to concentrate on their skills.
In the future, the person in charge of each department will be selected from among those first-class craftsmen, and in the future, those capable first-class craftsmen can also be sent to each fort to establish branch divisions of craftsmen. "

Wei Zhice bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then said: "Yunzhou is really good, the location is in the middle, and the materials are more convenient for all parties. It is really necessary to assess and grade the craftsmen. I will try to figure out a framework in the next few days."

"Well, there is no rush for these things. When we return from Beijing, we will go over them in detail. You have a plan in mind first, and the artillery team and the delivery convoy are also not in a hurry.
We need to build the frame department first, choose some suitable craftsmen, and then make the frame properly according to the styles of the artillery and side-box chariots in "Ji Xiao New Book" and "Records of Military Training". It is also possible to select suitable people in each battalion first to serve as gunners,

As for the batters, they can also be selected from the military households in each fort in the future. The helmsman and the soldiers will be supplemented by the eliminated soldiers from the infantry battalion. If there are insufficient numbers, they will be recruited separately. "

Wei Zhice nodded, and continued: "As for the car camp, Zhice will follow the general's orders, and this military medical department, Zhice means to gather all the doctors in our army first, and then select some clever ones. Sergeants, teach them to do some rough treatment of war injuries, which has supplemented the shortage of doctors in the army.

After things stabilized, some doctors were recruited from the medical halls in various castles to supplement the shortage of military doctors in each battalion. At the same time, some young men were recruited in the military medical department to teach them the skills of treating battle wounds, so as to supplement the doctors in the future. "

"Haha, I knew that I would never go wrong if I entrusted you with this luggage place!"

The three laughed together again.

Zhang Cheng shifted his gaze to Chen Zhong, and said to him: "Chen Zhong, have all the gains from suppressing bandits these days been put into the treasury?"

Chen Zhong replied: "All the gains from suppressing the bandits in the past have been collected in the Yunzhou New Army and the Dushi New Army camp. Roughly, there are more than [-] taels of silver, more than [-] mules and horses, and seven war horses. , there are more than [-] stones of grain, which can solve our shortage of money and grain."

Wei Zhice said in surprise: "Oh, this bandit is actually richer than the governor's yamen, and the income from suppressing bandits is better than what the governor Mr. Liu gave!"

Zhang Cheng also smiled and said: "Haha, these bandits are using everything to their advantage. Every family and village has a lot of gold, silver and grain. This is a ruined place on Shangbei Road, and it is already so rich." harvest."

"It's a pity that all the bandits on Shangbei Road have been wiped out, and the few remaining ones who responded quickly have all moved to other roads. I'm afraid there will be no bandits to suppress from now on!" Chen Zhong said with some regret.

"Hey, how could Chen Zhong think so, I went to the North Road to cut off the banditry. Doesn't Shan Qingheyan just show that my general has done a good job in governing the place? Could it be that you still hope that the North Road will be full of bandits and devastated?" Wei Zhice took the opportunity to go Make fun of Chen Zhong.

Zhang Cheng got up and walked to the window. Looking at the sky outside, he said loudly, "Humph, if the bandits on Shangbei Road are wiped out, then go to Xiabei Road and Zhongbei Road to suppress bandits. If the bandits on the entire North Road are wiped out,

We will go to the East Road, South Road, and West Road. As long as there are bandits in this world, no matter where they are, we will go and wipe them out. The money and food captured by these bandits can only be used by Zhang Cheng. "

Wei Zhice and Chen Zhong looked at Zhang Cheng standing by the window, a ray of sunlight slanted in from the carved window, and under the reflection of the sunset, they only felt that Zhang Cheng's body was extremely tall, as if he was like a god, as if he could carry everything in this world.

…………

On May 25th, at the Dajiao Field three miles north of Dushikoubao City, Zhang Cheng and all the officials under his command had already gathered here.

After discussing the matter yesterday, it was ordered that at noon today, the military exercises will be conducted at the North University Campus. The teaching ground here was also built during the Xuande period. It is also dilapidated.

On March 22, the ninth year of Xuande, the frontier troops who had been stationed at various places in Kaipingkou moved inward to Dushikou Fort. Kaiping Pingping Guards Army 310 and [-] people guard the single stone, follow it."

Later, in order to strengthen the defense of various places, the Kaiping officials and troops who moved inward were assigned to various forts. An each four hundred."

At this time, the teaching ground was already full of sergeants, big and small, stationed at Dushikou Castle.

The weather at the end of May is already extremely hot. Although it is a small glacier climate at this time, it does not affect the heat of summer, and it is not so refreshing.

In the bright northern land of Ming Dynasty, there was an occasional white cloud in the sky, and the military uniforms of the frontier soldiers below were all worn out, and all of them were disorganized, with a listless appearance.

What is even more depressing is that there are 570 soldiers in Dushikou's roster of sergeants, but there are 800 people in the teaching field at this time.

Dushikou should have a sergeant department, a division and two bureaus, one of which is stationed at Beizha Pass, and the two bureaus are stationed at Dongzha Pass and Xizha Pass respectively. There should be a group of 890 nine sergeants stationed in this school ground.

At this time, one flag sergeant was stationed at each of the three gates, and the rest gathered here for inspection. There should be 460 sergeants, but the school grounds are sparsely populated.

Standing beside Zhang Cheng, Jin Xinpeng pointed to a group of sergeants in the school field, and said, "General, that is General Manager Jin Yong, and the black man next to him is Chief Executive Qiu Yingquan. This is the direct descendant of the lower officials. There are elite close friends." 300 people."

Zhang Cheng followed his directions, and saw a well-dressed general standing at the front, a strong man like a black iron tower less than two steps behind him, and a group of sergeants behind him.

Yes, it is a group of sergeants, not a team. There are nearly [-] sergeants here, and their military uniforms are also quite neat. They look more energetic than the surrounding sergeants, but they are loose and loose, and they don’t feel like they are in formation at all. .
