The magistrate of Ningyuan reported that their county has a maritime women's army formed voluntarily by the people. They monitor the sea and fishing villages while fishing. The people feel a sense of security and are highly motivated.
Zhao Bingyan nodded in praise and told his ministers not to underestimate the young lady's ability to defend the country and to strongly support the construction of the militia.
He said that he would discuss with the defense envoy in a few days, and the court would establish a separate army of women, so that women could go into battle to kill the enemy.
After the meeting, he left Cen Lin and Chen Weizhong to attend the military affairs meeting later.
Emperor Xiao Chen of Annan participated in the whole discussion of Hainan's government affairs as a counselor and felt a lot.
This girl went back to sit in the pavilion and have tea. The little queen saw that he was in a good mood and stayed with him to fan him.
The little emperor sighed and said: "When we arrived at Da Song Hainan Road, we really felt what it means to be a frog in a well. We are all frogs in a well."
The little queen said that when the Song Dynasty was at its peak, there were dozens of roads, while Hainan was just a corner of Guangnan West Road, and compared to Annan, it was much smaller.
The little emperor said with admiration: "In the past, what we thought about was how to collect more money from the people to raise troops and pay for the court. What the King of Han talked about was how to make the people full and not hungry."
The little queen sighed and said: "I heard that the King of Han brought good rice seeds, and the yield per mu is higher than our Champa rice. Can the Emperor please ask the King of Han to give the seeds so that the Annan people can also plant them?"
The little emperor smiled and said that they didn't need to worry about it. The King of Han Dynasty had already arranged for the Secretary of Agriculture to select the best varieties and go to Annan for trial planting. This is what I didn't expect.
What is a pattern? This is the big pattern.
Why.
He asked: "Where is Huaiyu?"
The little queen said she went to study, what happened?
Huaiyu is their youngest daughter, Annan Princess Chen Huaiyu. The little emperor urged Huaiyu to learn simplified Chinese characters and learn more about the new laws and etiquette of the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, we will have nothing in common when we get married to the King of Han in the future, and how can we live a harmonious life.
Haha, this father-in-law thinks long term.
Five days later, Zhao Bingyan presided over the rectification discussion of the Hainan Road garrison.
At present, only Liu Shiyong's fifth brigade and the garrison commanded by Fang Rixing are stationed in Hainan. It is still difficult to defend against Dayuan's large-scale attack.
Zhao Bingyan judged that Dayuan had confiscated ordnance and food and burned its ships. It was impossible to organize a large-scale attack in a short period of time because they had no ships and it would be difficult to cross the strait.
However, small-scale exploratory attacks by the Yuan army cannot be ruled out.
He said that Mr. Zhuge gave Hainan 200,000 taels of silver as a gift for military equipment, and he would take it with him when he returns. Militias must be organized in various places so that women can protect maritime borders. Female soldiers must be recruited and female maritime militias must be organized to protect their homes and the country.
Zhao Bingyan told several generals: After the internal stability of Hainan Road, the garrison will be transferred. Once the east and west roads of Guangnan are recovered in the future, Hainan will mainly rely on militia to defend the island, and attention must be paid to the formation of militia teams.
Enthusiastic and patriotic male and female militiamen must be organized and drilled during the slack farming and windy seasons, so that their sacrifices cannot be in vain.
Zhao Bingyan introduced Wu Qingyuan's granddaughter Wu Xintong to Liu Shiyong and asked her to be the first commander of the female army.
Liu Shiyong agreed immediately.
He knew that this woman led the young men to fight against the Yuan army when they broke through the siege at Yashan. It was remarkable, and he praised the King of Han for his unique insight.
Zhao Bingyan told him that there were precedents for women to join the army, and that many things in the army were easier for women to do.
For example, when rescuing the wounded, a howling and violent wounded man will restrain himself a lot when meeting a female doctor and cooperate with the treatment.
In the future, we will establish advanced communications in our ranks, and female soldiers are best suited to do this.
Liu Shiyong obeyed Zhao Bingyan's words, agreed humbly, and promised to do a good job.
The next day, Wu Xintong came to him happily to say goodbye and was going to follow General Liu to Qiongzhou to form a female soldier brigade.
He said: When you are in the army, it is not like playing house with neighborhood playmates. You must abide by military discipline.
Wu Xintong hummed in her mouth, her eyes shooting fire at him passionately.
Zhao Bingyan pretended not to see it and continued: Women should not be inferior to men, and they must train like male soldiers. Without strong skills, you will lose your life on the battlefield.
Seeing that he was ignoring her enthusiasm, the girl hugged his head, slapped him twice, turned around and ran away.
Zhao Bingyan was stunned for a moment before he realized that Wu Xintong had already run away and shouted: "What's the hurry? Come back."
Wu Xintong stopped suddenly, lowered her head and turned around with a red face and asked him what else he wanted?
Zhao Bingyan said that he had prepared two thousand sets of new military uniforms for female soldiers, two sets for each recruit, but he was not allowed to force anyone to join the army.
Wu Xintong was overjoyed and said to herself: "Brother Bingyan is so kind. He even prepared clothes for me." She immediately went out to find a partner to transport her.
After Wu Xintong left, he felt dry and called Zhu Jingyi for a cup of tea.
The girl went in with a frosty face and worked coldly, making the saucer, teacup and teacup cover snap loudly, as if she was about to go on strike.
Zhao Bingyan was puzzled and asked her what was wrong. Who made her angry?
Zhu Jingyi put down the kettle and said, "No." Geng turned and left.
He shook his head inexplicably and called Qian Shipan to tell him: pack your bags and leave for Thang Long tomorrow.
At Emperor Xiao Chen's house opposite the Han Palace, Emperor Xiao Chen is talking to the little queen.
Queen Xiao Chen was dissatisfied and said that the King of Han had just sent Huaiyu here and ignored her. It had been so long since she came to see our Huaiyu.
The little emperor said that the king of Han was busy.
This time the King of Han convened Hainan officials to discuss matters and talked about many things to be done. He believed that the first important thing was to declare the Zhou-Zhao Republic of the Song Dynasty to the scholars of the world.
The Song Dynasty changed to a republic, but the common people still knew very little about it, so they had to write more articles about it.
Queen Xiao Chen didn't understand. She said: In the future, if the King of Han wears a yellow robe, their Huaiyu will be the queen, or even the imperial concubine. Why would the King of Han forcefully promote the Republic of Zhou and Zhao?
Emperor Xiao Chen shook his head and said that his wife was short-sighted. When the soldiers of the Song Dynasty came to Shenglong City, they said that our country was unfair. How could the King of Han follow the old path of wearing a yellow robe again?
If someone still uses the Zhao royal family as an article of stealing the country, or if the Yuan Tatars return the captured emperor and the empress dowager, someone will definitely mention the return of power again.
At that time, the country that the King of Han had worked so hard to conquer would fall into the hands of others again.
Queen Xiao Chen suddenly woke up.
It turns out that this is the case. No wonder the king of Han strongly promoted Zhou Zhao's republic.
Emperor Xiao Chen thought for a moment and said, "No, I have to do something for my son-in-law."
Queen Chen asked him what he was doing?
He felt that the King of Han spoke very implicitly and that the officials on Hainan Road did not understand enough in this regard. He wanted to personally go to Wu Qingyuan, the prefect of Danzhou, to let Danzhou take the lead in preaching the virtues of Zhou Zhao's Republic and supporting the imperial court's republican ideas.
Emperor Xiao Chen did what he said and immediately called the guards to lead the way out.
This was the first time that Emperor Xiao Chen stepped into the Danzhou government office as a councilor on Hainan Road, so Wu Qingyuan naturally did not dare to neglect.
After listening to Emperor Xiao Chen's understanding of the Han Dynasty King Zhou Zhao and the Republic, he had an epiphany.
Yes, in the past, the imperial court used imperial examinations to recruit officials. Only outstanding scholars could become officials in the imperial court.
Nowadays, people like him can reach the position of prefect, all thanks to the new employment policy of the King of Han Dynasty.
If there is another emperor who insists on reintroducing the imperial examination and completely overturning the current employment system, won't he suffer?
Emperor Xiao Chen proposed that professors and students from Hainan Academy should go to the countryside to investigate the Land Equalization Order led by the Queen Mother, publicize the goodness of the New Deal, and then start preaching about the Zhouzhao Republic, and advocate for the imperial court to treat everyone equally and select the best people.
Wu Qingyuan felt that this was a serious matter, and first agreed to teach students to go out of the school to sum up experience for the Queen Mother's land equalization order.
As for how to negotiate the Zhou Zhao Republic, he would personally go to Qiongzhou to report to Cen Lin, the pacifier, and ask the pacifier to make up his mind.
Emperor Xiao Chen felt that what he said was effective, he was happy in his heart, and walked out of the government office with a light weight.
Not long after his car ran out, he was surrounded by several samurai warriors who rushed out from the alleys on both sides. The swords in their hands were fiercely waving at his guards, and the street suddenly became chaotic.
The two warriors attacked the car on the car one after the other. The warrior who was attacking in front was already standing at the door of the bridge box.
Guards around him were injured and fell to the ground one after another. Emperor Xiao Chen was so frightened that he hid inside and shivered.
Fortunately, Zhao Bingyan's guards were on duty on the main street and immediately ran over to help. The twenty-gun blows in the hands of the guards were far faster than the ancient warriors' arrows and hidden weapons.
