Kai Fu Han

Chapter 70
It seems that although the important historical events in this life and the previous life are different in time, the general historical process is still the same. If it continues to develop like this, it will be a matter of time before Jingdong East Road is directly ruled by the Jin Kingdom.

"Are we considered people who have subjugated our country?" Liu Lisheng was a little confused.

"That's not all, the Zhao court has moved south. King Kang and Song Gou are the royal heirs, and the new court can be considered orthodox." Zhou Xinyuan comforted himself and said, "I just don't know if the new dynasty can withstand further attacks from the Jin state. "

"I thought that the ten million people of our Zhao country were crushed by a small Jin country. Alas..." Liu Lizhen also sighed.

Liu Xinqi stood up, came to the young man who reported the news, took out a tael of silver and handed it to him, saying, "Thank you brother for coming to report the news, and thank Lieutenant Luo County for me."

The young man who reported the news took the money, thanked him, and then turned around and went back.

"According to this news, Dengzhou where we are now is considered to be under the jurisdiction of 'Pseudo-Chu'." Liu Xinqi said after sitting back in his seat.

"This is truly a time of chaos."

"Yes, think of Cao Zhi's poem: 'How desolate the middle field is, thousands of miles uninhabited.', troubled times! How miserable and desolate it is."

"At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, only 5000 million of the 500 million Han people were left. It was really tragic. I don't know what our life will be like."

……

After hearing the news from Luo County Lieutenant, Liu Xinqi finally knew what his tribe should do this winter.

After Liu Xinqi listened to everyone's speech for a while, he motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then said:

"The troubled times are coming. From now on, we must abandon all chances and go all out to improve our Liujiabao's ability to survive in these troubled times."

"If you save land and lose people, you will lose all people and land; if you save people and lose land, you will save all people and land."

"The life of every clan member is our Liujiabao's most precious asset, so this winter, our most important, and it can be said to be our only, task is to improve everyone's survivability."

Speaking of this, Liu Xinqi paused for a while, asking everyone to take a moment to understand the meaning of his words.

"'If you save land and lose people, everyone and land will be lost; if you save people and lose land, everyone and land will survive.' That's so well said." Zhou Xinyuan repeated Liu Xinqi's words, and then asked: "Then how are you going to improve everyone? survivability, your immortal magic has been restored?"

"No, the number of uses of immortal magic has been restored twice recently, and it was used against Zhao Liang and Liu Xin." Liu Xinqi replied.

"I plan to organize a two-month military training for all adult clan members to improve everyone's physical fitness and combat capabilities."

Later studies found that militarized management has a good management-enhancing effect on labor-intensive enterprises and enterprises with a large number of personnel.

Liu Xinqi is currently in an era where industrialization is basically zero. All production must be completed by people. If you want to produce more, you need more people. The more people there are, the more difficult it is to manage.

"Han Xin orders troops, the more the better." This is the most direct manifestation of Han Xin's extraordinary commanding ability.

Therefore, in order to better manage the people in Liujiabao in the future, Liu Xinqi planned to organize a short-term military training for everyone during this winter when production was basically impossible.

Then Liu Xinqi explained the benefits of military training to everyone.

First of all, military training can improve everyone's coordination and obedience, and obedience is particularly important.Secondly, military training can improve the will of the tribe, and can also focus on cultivating men's decisiveness, bravery, tenacity, self-control and other excellent will qualities.

Finally, military training can enhance the collectivistic spirit of all ethnic groups. Now including the recruited refugee workers, the population of people with foreign surnames has greatly exceeded the number of people with the surname Liu, so the cultivation of collectivist spirit is urgent.

Through military training, these workers' habits can also be subject to various disciplines. Military training can also be used to screen out some people who are lazy and disobedient to discipline and eliminate them early.

After Liu Xinqi explained his thoughts, Zhou Xinyuan then added: "You can also provide them with simple literacy training. It is always good to know a few more characters. At least you must be able to write your own name."

Everyone followed Zhou Xinyuan's additions and also expressed some of their own questions, opinions and suggestions. The meeting time was spent in a lively discussion.

……

At noon, after everyone had eaten, they dispersed and went about their business.

Liu Xinqi and Zhou Xinyuan began to formulate the code of conduct for this military training together. The code of conduct was not complicated and followed the principle of simplicity and ease of implementation. It was mainly based on the military training knowledge Zhou Xinyuan obtained through the attached card and combined with the military training experience of Liu Xinqi's later generations.

Improve everyone's endurance through running training, improve everyone's obedience and perseverance, such as standing at attention, taking a rest, walking in unison, squatting, standing up, arranging clothes, reporting numbers neatly, etc., plus some simple equipment use, emergency rescue, etc.

Liu Xinqi also stipulated in the drill that the standing, squatting and sitting postures for formal occasions in Liujiapu will be the same as the standing, squatting and sitting postures of later generations of soldiers.

It took three days to preliminarily finalize the exercise code, and this exercise code will be further improved and improved according to the actual training situation in the later use.

……

The snow on November [-]th stopped after only one day, which made Liu Xinqi breathe a sigh of relief. During the formulation of the code of conduct, eight cargo ships brought all the people who stayed in Qinglinpu to Dengzhou. Liu Lisheng was in the city again. We rented three large yards in the outer warehouse area and accommodated everyone there.

After the cargo ship transported the people back, it did not stop and then went to Laizhou again to transport coal.

On November [-], Liu Lisheng, led by Xu Zhong, the steward of Luofu, visited several large landowners around Penglai County and bought part of their grain reserves.

Because the news of the establishment of Puppet Chu spread, the price of grain rose sharply. Even with the introduction of County Lieutenant Luo Cheng, Liujiabao could only keep the price of grain at five cents per catty, and bought a total of 500 shi of grain. , costing one thousand and five hundred taels of silver.

This purchase of grain basically consumed more than half of Liujiabao's savings. Almost all the strong laborers who stayed at home were dispatched. It took two days to transport all the grain purchased this time to the Liu family warehouse.

I also spent 100 taels to buy some live livestock, such as pigs, chickens, ducks, etc., as rations for the tiger "Da Lang", and bought some daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea for the tribe to exchange for food stamps.

On November 23, Liu Xinqi organized all the idlers in Dengzhou who were over 16 years old and gathered in the large courtyard in the middle of Liu's No. [-] warehouse (the ten-acre courtyard he rented for the first time).

After Liu Xinqi made a brief speech, Zhou Xinyuan explained the military training procedures to everyone, and then the clan elder Liu Lizhen led ten soldiers as instructors to start Liujiabao's first full-service military training.

During the military training, there was a sharp contrast between people with the surname Liu and people with the surname outside. Most of the people with the surname outside could not even distinguish the basic left and right. Liu Xinqi had no choice but to tie a cloth strip on each person's right arm to distinguish them.

Fortunately, these people are honest and good people with good obedience, so the training effect is quite good.
