Chapter 060
Located at the small wharf of the salt factory, twenty-one ships docked slowly.
Cheng Shijie and his soldiers disembarked first.
General Manager Li Fang came to the side of General Manager Li Zhixiang and said, "Boss, what does it mean?"
"What do you mean!"
"Just transfer us to Ning Haijun!"
"What's wrong?"
"I heard that the governor's office doesn't give Ning Haijun military pay, so what will we eat?"
"Then what do you mean?"
"Boss, I heard that you have a friendship with Xu Qianzong, a subordinate of General Shang Kexi, who patrols sea cucumbers? Why not, let's take advantage of..."
Li Fang looked at Cheng Shijie and his soldiers walking farther and farther and lowered his voice: "It's still too late for us to leave now. Once we reach the sea, what can they do to us?"
Li Zhixiang looked at Li Fang, his clan brother, with cold eyes: "Do you want to die?"
"No... Third brother, listen to me..."
"Execute Master Futai's order!"
Li Zhixiang said coldly: "If you dare to play tricks, don't blame me for turning against you."
As Cheng Shijie arrived at the dock, the Hot Spring Hundred Households, no, the hot spring town guard should now be called to lead his 600 military households to greet Cheng Shijie.
"Meet the general!"
Cheng Shijie originally transferred Zhou Yandong's Hundred Households to the original Hot Spring Hundred Household Office, but the problem is that since Zhou Yandong was promoted to Deputy Qianhu Office of Zuo Qianhu Office, he has now become Ning Haijun Assistant Zhou Yandong asked Cheng Shijie to pass on the official position of Baiguan in Hot Spring House to his eldest son Zhou An.
As a result, Zhou An became a hot spring household. However, as the hot spring was upgraded to a town, Zhou An also became a guard, in charge of the 600 military households in the hot spring town.
"No gift!"
Cheng Shijie asked: "Is the military camp ready?"
"Ready!"
"By the way, this pier will be the base of our Ninghai Navy in the future. It is too small and needs to be expanded!"
"yes!"
Although the military households were not soldiers of Ning Haijun, with Cheng Shijie's management, these military households also changed their guns. Although many of them wore patched clothes, they were all cotton-padded clothes.
Looking at the soldiers of the Dongjiang Army, they couldn't help but feel inferior. If the guardsmen of Dengzhou Guard were described as beggars, the Dongjiang Army were refugees. Although the main combat weapon of naval officers and soldiers is artillery, the knife is an essential weapon.
However, the problem is that the more than 500 people Sun Yuanhua gave to Cheng Shijie were almost all with bare hands. They were all yellow, hungry and thin, and wore rags.
It's less like an army and more like refugees. Some readers in the previous article responded that it is taboo to set up your own military uniforms. In fact, this was indeed a taboo in other dynasties, but it was not a taboo in the Ming Dynasty.
Because strictly speaking, the Ming Dynasty's army did not have uniform uniforms. The main reason was determined by the Ming Dynasty's military system. Due to different environments, different responsibilities, military pay issues, etc., the troops of the Ming Dynasty were mainly divided into the Beijing Army, the Guards Army, the Northern Army, the Southern Army, the Border Army, the Qin Army, the Sichuan Army, the Zhejiang Army, etc. Each military uniform also has certain characteristics.
There is another reason, that is, the Ming Dynasty had a small farm economy. There were no garment factories. Military uniforms were made from cloth and sewed by oneself. Some military uniforms were wide, some were narrow and thin, some were dark, some were light, and some were Use Gebu, some use numb, and some use cotton.
Let’s talk about the Yuanyang War Jacket. This is indeed a unified standard. The problem is that the Yuanyang War Jacket is not a piece of clothing, but a cotton armor. Southern soldiers will definitely get prickly heat if they wear the Yuanyang War Jacket. Unification is simply impossible.
The structure of these soldiers is too weak, and they will definitely not be able to train immediately. They must be restored.
When the navy officers and soldiers entered Hot Spring Town, they gathered on the school field. After it took more than a quarter of an hour for everyone to complete the formation, Cheng Shijie looked at the commander-in-chief Li Zhixiang and said: "Li Zhixiang!"
"The humble position is here!"
"Register all soldiers and enter them into the Ning Navy."
"yes!"
"Zhou Fang, here is my humble duty!"
"Distribute military uniforms and ordnance, let them familiarize themselves with the military camp and receive military discipline training!"
"yes"
There were so few literate people that even a hundred households in Zhou An were forced to recruit young men. Cheng Shijie transferred a veteran from Ning Haijun to be responsible for training these new recruits.
"Chen Ermao!"
"arrive!"
"Hometown!"
"Liaodong Dusi Haizhou Guard!"
"age!"
"Nineteen!"
"Are you literate?"
"no!"
"Come here and press your fingerprints."
Chen Ermao pressed his fingers on the ink pad, and then felt a little confused. Is this the end?
"Chen Ermao!"
"coming!"
"You'll have to shout later!"
"yes!"
"Chen Ermao!"
"arrive!"
"Get your gear!"
"yes!"
As the weather got colder, Ning Haijun's military uniform changed into two sets of cotton-padded clothes. Both were made of black fine linen, with fine stitching and looked well-made.
Chen Ermao received the cotton coat and trousers and couldn't wait to put them on.
Then I received two pairs of cotton shoes.
In addition to these military uniforms, there is also a sloping canvas bag and a water hyacinth. This is a real gourd, but the seeds inside are hollowed out and painted so that it can hold water.
Then there is the washbasin (wooden), lunch box (wooden), bedding and sheets, and a dog-leg knife.
As a veteran who has been in the army since he was thirteen years old, Chen Ermao is most interested in weapons. As soon as he received them, he couldn't wait to pull them out and see. The dog-leg knives used by ordinary soldiers are also forged from high manganese steel, with a cold light. , cutting iron like clay.
The handle, scabbard, and blade were without any decorations. They were simple and unpretentious, but they had a terrifying murderous aura that made people feel chilled. The blade was nearly a foot and a half long, wide at the front and narrow at the back, shaped like a dog's leg, and extremely sharp. Yang Menglong was really willing to spend money on it.
I have to say that this sword shocked Chen Ermao: "Master Garrison is so generous. He actually equipped us soldiers with such a good sword!"
After receiving military uniforms, bedding and knives, Chen Ermao was covered with things. Under the leadership of a veteran of the Ning Navy, he came to a barracks. This was actually two barracks in one.
There is a row of basin racks as you enter the door, and each basin rack has its own number.
"Chen Ermao, you are No. 1, cabinet No. 1, basin No. 1, and bed No. 1 are all yours!"
There are six beds placed against the wall in each room. Each bed is divided into upper and lower floors. A dormitory can accommodate twelve people, which is exactly one team.
But now, there is an extra veteran living there, so there is an extra model bed. The quilt on the bed is folded into standard tofu blocks, and everything is neatly placed. Where is the kettle and where is the lunch box? Yes, it’s clear where the washbasin is.
"This is bed No. 1. You will sleep here from now on."
The veteran pointed to the No. 1 bed and said, "Things must be placed properly. These are the rules and everyone must abide by them. Put clothes and other things in the wardrobe and shoe cabinet, put your own logo on the kettle and washbasin, and tell everyone Put them together and put them neatly... Did you see the cabinet near the door? Remember to put the weapons in and lock them after training every day. Take weapons out of the military camp without permission, ranging from military sticks to military sticks. retreat!"
Chen Ermao was a little puzzled: "The weapons are locked, wouldn't it be troublesome for us to take them out and use them?"
"The key is with your team. It will be opened when needed!"
"You must remember the military regulations clearly. If you violate the military regulations, you will be warned once, twice you will be hit with a military stick, and three times you will be locked up!"
As more and more soldiers entered the room, soon all twelve soldiers in the barracks, including their team leader, arrived! "
The veteran looked at the twelve excited soldiers who were about to move and said, "Who is the leader!"
"I am!"
"Remember the first rule of Ning Haijun's military rules. All actions must be reported and your hands must be raised!"
"Who is the leader!"
"Report!"
"speak!"
"I am the leader of the team, and my name is Mao Wanwan!"
"Mao Wanwan, your responsibility is to check after every day's training whether every weapon has been put into the cabinet, and then lock the cabinet. After the morning run the next day, open the cabinet and take out the weapons to start training. That is to say , During non-training periods, no one other than sentries and patrols guarding the barracks may bear arms."
"Report!"
"speak!"
"What if there's a war?"
"In wartime, of course you have to wear armor and keep your sword in your hand!"
But Chen Ermao heard a different taste. He ran every morning and trained every day. You must know that the elite troops only train every three days and train every day. Ning Haijun, if you don't guard the food, it will not be easy for the adults to eat.
The treatment of Ning Haijun's officers is different from that of ordinary soldiers. When they reach the rank of Chief Hundred Officer, they have their own room. Although it is the same as the ordinary barracks, there are two rooms, but a wall is added, and one room is used as a room. One is used as a living room and one as a bedroom.
Li Fang looked at the thick cotton clothes on his body, the sheepskin boots on his feet, and the small stove burning in the house. The cold wind was howling outside, but it was as warm as spring inside.
More importantly, his room not only contains wardrobes and lockers, but also a desk with pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Li Fang is illiterate, which does not mean that he does not pay attention to these things. Many illiterate people in order to show themselves If you are educated, you still have a pen.
Li Fang lay heavily on the bed with a comfortable look on his face.
The equipment distributed to these soldiers today is better than that of the Guan Ning Army, especially the cotton-padded clothes. The Guan Ning Army has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and there is no guarantee that everyone will have two sets of cotton-padded clothes. It would be good to have a sheepskin jacket to keep out the cold.
Li Zhixiang was responsible for causing trouble for his clan brother, so he came over to warn Li Fang: "If I find out that you are secretly trying to persuade people to surrender, I will kill you!"
"well!"
Li Fang smiled bitterly and said: "If I had known that Master Guards was so rich, I would be glad that only a fool would surrender!"
Shang Kexi is now serving as a sea cucumber patrol officer. Although this job is hard and dangerous at sea, the problem is that what they do is anti-smuggling. There is a lot of money and money in anti-smuggling at sea.
Li Zhixiang said: "This is the best!"
"Woooo..."
The meal horn sounded in the military camp outside, and the veterans began to shout: "It's meal time, get out of the canteen quickly!"
The veterans thought too much. The soldiers who came from the Dongjiang Army were all afraid of hunger. In their opinion, they were not active in eating and had brain problems.
