The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 82 Cultural Competition
Wu Laoliu listened to the wailing from next door, but he thought in his heart that even if the comrades next door survived, they must be disabled.

What about the future life?
Who will raise the parents?What about the child?
Will I be seriously injured and disabled in the future, or even die in battle?
Thinking about these messy things, Wu Laoliu couldn't sleep more and more.

Just at this moment, I don't know who made a voice.

"The general is here!"

"The general came to see us!"

"..."

After Zhu Hongyu finished his inspection of the weapons workshop and distributed wages and rewards to the craftsmen, he led his people to the wounded barracks.

At the door of the wounded soldier, Zhu Hongyu sprinkled some alcohol on himself, then opened the curtain and strode into the ward.

The severely wounded soldiers of the Liberation Army who were still wailing and screaming, after seeing Zhu Hongyu came to see them, their screams subconsciously became quieter.

Zhu Hongyu walked up to a wounded man, glanced at his injury, and comforted him in a gentle voice.

"Heal your wounds well, this general still needs you, and the Liberation Army still needs you!"

This man was called Tian Qixiang. On the battlefield, his left arm was hit by a lead bullet, and he had to amputate his leg to save his life.

Tian Qixiang's expression was full of sorrow and despair, and his face was also pale due to excessive blood loss.

"General, I'm already a useless person!"

He raised his left hand, the small half of his left arm had been amputated, his voice was weak.

Zhu Hongyu grabbed Tian Qixiang's intact right hand and said.

"Who said you're useless?"

"Without a left hand, is a person useless?"

"You can rest easy and recuperate, this general will definitely not let you have no results!"

"When you recover from your injury, you will first learn to read and write. When you can master basic reading and writing, this general will arrange you to go to the logistics to do some easy work of writing, writing and calculating."

After appeasing Tian Qixiang, Zhu Hongyu turned his head and said to the other seriously injured.

"Everyone just put your heart in your stomach! This general promised not to abandon, not to give up, and he will definitely do what he says."

"I, Zhu Hongyu, swear in the name of Emperor Taizu today that I will never abandon any robes!"

"The disabled, this general will support you for the rest of your life!"

"For those who died in battle, this general will support your family, marry your children and have children, and support your parents until their death!"

"If there is any violation, the sky will be struck by lightning, and you will die!"

When everyone heard this, whether it was a seriously wounded patient lying on the bed who could not move, or a lightly wounded patient who came from another ward to watch the excitement, they all showed emotion.

Since ancient times, has there ever been a commander who attaches so much importance to them?
If the commander is like this, why not die in battle? !

The slightly wounded outside the door all hammered their chests with their right hands to salute, and said.

"I will swear allegiance to the general to the death, and follow the general to create the great cause of expelling the Tartars, restoring China, rebuilding Ming Dynasty, and the revival of China!"

"I will swear allegiance to the general to the death, and follow the general to create the great cause of expelling the Tartars, restoring China, rebuilding Ming Dynasty, and the revival of China!"

"..."

Although the voices of the seriously wounded were weak, they also spoke one after another.

"Long live the Great General!"

"I will swear allegiance to the general to the death!"

Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and spoke.

"Don't be too polite, let's have a good rest, and take care of your body!"

"Only when your body is in good condition can you join me in creating the great cause of rebuilding Ming Dynasty together with this general!"

"I ordered people to boil broth for everyone, and it will be served later. Everyone eat more meat to nourish their bodies, so that the injury will heal faster!"

Zhu Hongyu spoke to comfort the wounded of the recovery army.

After Zhu Hongyu calmed down the wounded and left, the originally sluggish atmosphere in the wounded barracks became much more cheerful.

With Zhu Hongyu's promise, the wounded soldiers no longer worry about their future.

Although the injuries on his body are serious and the pain is unbearable, as long as there is hope in front of him, all the sufferings now are not unbearable.

Zhu Hongyu left the wounded barracks and returned to his residence.

Sitting down behind the desk, he began to think about the placement of the seriously wounded.

The seriously wounded are basically disabled, and it is impossible to go to the battlefield again.

But Zhu Hongyu can't let these seriously injured people have no results!
If he can properly accommodate these seriously wounded, the Liberation Army will be able to see it.

In the future, when they go to the battlefield, soldiers will no longer have to worry about what will happen to them after they are disabled, or what will happen to their families after they die in battle!
Let the soldiers have no worries, and only focus on fighting for meritorious service, which can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army!
Moreover, Zhu Hongyu did intend to put the disabled soldiers in the logistics.

In this era, the disabled are far less tolerant than later generations. Once a person becomes disabled and loses his labor force, he will definitely be looked down upon and treated differently.

If Zhu Hongyu ignored them, the rest of the life of these disabled soldiers would be miserable.

Now that Zhu Hongyu is taking such good care of them, ensuring their livelihood and taking care of their families, the loyalty of these people can be absolutely guaranteed.

After these disabled soldiers have completed their literacy, can read and write, and then train in the logistics of the Liberation Army for a period of time, they will basically be qualified grassroots officials.

To put it bluntly, Zhu Hongyu was making plans for the future.

It is impossible for him to stay in this mountain nest all the time to farm and develop. After repelling the Spaniard's attack, Zhu Hongyu plans to expand abroad.

Although it is safe in the mountains, it is too closed and there is no prospect for development!
If the Guangfu Army wants to develop and grow, it still has to go out of the mountains.

Down the river, out of the mountains is the central plain of Luzon Island.

The Spaniards ruled the place by colluding with the natives and the church.

If Zhu Hongyu wants to rule the region, the natives must win over. Before he has enough power, it is very necessary to maintain a good relationship with the natives.

But he and the church can't pee in the same jug by nature!

After all, General Zhu Hongyu will definitely promulgate the prohibition order under his own rule.

Since Manila under the Spanish rule did not allow Chinese to establish academies teaching Confucianism, why did Zhu Hongyu allow the spread of Jesus Christ?
In Zhu Hongyu's eyes, whether to allow the spread of Jesus Christ is not a matter of religious belief.

It is a competition between the national culture and social ideology of the East and the West!

There is no compromise on this matter, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind!
Unless one day, Confucian academies and Confucian temples are everywhere in Europe, don't think about Zhu Hongyu lifting the religious ban on Jesus.

In addition, there is no landlord and gentry class on Luzon Island!
Even if Zhu Hongyu wanted to use a temporary compromise with the landlord and gentry class in exchange for his control over the local population and materials and other war resources, he couldn't do it.

Zhu Hongyu could only train grassroots officials by himself.

Otherwise, he can't make the Spanish manor owners and gentry collude with the Spanish manor owners to squeeze the Chinese, right?

In that case, the buttocks will be sitting crookedly!

And to train grassroots officials, is there a better choice than these disabled soldiers?
Anyway, they are all cultivated from scratch, so naturally they have to choose to be loyal to themselves!
