Li Yuanqing had to deal with government affairs during the day and work hard at night to cultivate his three "good fields".
At this time, the foundation industry has already been established, and it has become a political task.
On April 12, Shang Laoliu led his fleet back from Dagukou. The grain trade with the Qu family was very smooth without too many twists and turns. The master of the Qu family also gave Li Yuanqing ten jars of good wine. As a result, Changsheng island's grain and grass reserves have been enough to support the upward movement for half a year.
But Li Yuanqing did not give Shang Laoliu half a day off. As soon as he got home and had a nap, Li Yuanqing asked Huang Guoshan to recruit him to the official hall.
Shang Laoliu couldn't help laughing, "Yuanqing, you really want to make me a cow. I don't care about the ten jars
Li Yuanqing said with a smile, "big brother Shang, it's hard for those who are capable. It's just two jars of wine. They're small. When Xu sunspot comes back, I'll ask him to bring you some jars of good wine from the capital. "
They exchanged a few words with a smile, and Li Yuanqing said directly, "brother Shang, we have more and more people now, so we can't write on the wasteland. Now, the weather is warm and there are a lot of manpower. At this time, we should strive to open more wasteland and always hope to buy food. This is not a long-term plan. "
At this time, Changsheng Island, although the allocation of rooms, drills and other matters, has entered the right track, but due to various reasons, Changsheng island is basically still a big family, all people point to Li Yuanqing to eat, no matter soldiers, women's dependents, children, are eating canteens.
This is indeed a good way to stabilize Li Yuanqing's rule in the short term, but it is not a long-term plan.
It is imperative to reclaim land, distribute land and set up small families.
Shang Laoliu frowned tightly and nodded, "Yuanqing, I have thought about it for a long time. However, it is very difficult for the army to draw out manpower because of the tight training. Most of the labor force is still done by women's wives. But after all, the women can't do such heavy work. We need to farm cattle. "
Li Yuanqing laughed, "brother Shang, I will give you 30000 Liang silver. I don't care. I'll leave it to you. I told Guan Canghai that in addition to the main warships, you can use them freely. In the second half of the year, I just need to see the land. "
"Yuan Qing, you..."
But Shang Laoliu also knew that the midsummer offensive was about to start, so he could only nod heavily, "Yuanqing, I will try my best to do it. Besides, Ma is a good man. He has more experience than me and can help a lot
Li Yuanqing nodded, "this matter, he will be your deputy."
……
When Shang Laoliu came back, Li Yuanqing was finally able to pull himself out of the complicated government affairs. That afternoon, Li Yuanqing was promoted to Ma Deqiang, the horse housekeeper, to assist Shang Laoliu in dealing with all the government affairs of Changsheng island.
Li Yuanqing, shunzi, Yang Xiaobo and more than a dozen officers stood aside in the small school yard where the No. 3000 Corps was stationed. In the field, 60 soldiers were divided into three rows and started shooting at targets 70 paces away in turn.
"First row, all of them."
"Filled pellets."
"Open the fire door."
"Check the fire door."
"Light the rope."
"Aiming at proofreading."
"Ready to shoot."
"Pa pa pa pa..." Along with a crisp birdsong, not far away the target, have broken to the ground.
Li Yuanqing gently nodded, the effect is not bad.
This kind of practice, which is divided and carried out step by step, helps the soldiers consolidate their memory, operate skillfully and form instinct.
"The second row The third row... "
With all three rows of soldiers shooting, Li Yuanqing estimated that it took about 5 minutes. It's not fast, but it's acceptable.
Shunzi, Yang Xiaobo and other officers looked at Li Yuanqing's face and saw that Li Yuanqing showed a smile. They felt relieved as if they were granted amnesty.
Yang Xiaobo said: "oil paper, including gunpowder, is really convenient for fixed loading. It's a pity that if the bird's blunderbuss are fired five times, it will be cooled down. Otherwise, the effect of children's training should be better. "
Li Yuanqing nodded, "everything has to have a process, don't always think about a big fat man. Step by step, you know? "
Yang Xiaobo quickly nodded and said yes.
Shunzi also saw that Li Yuanqing appreciated and admired Yang Xiaobo very much, but he could not help being a little unconvinced. He quickly said, "general, the children under the command of humble positions have achieved good training results. The general, please
Li Yuanqing took a look at shunzi. Shunzi was very powerful, but when he saw Li Yuanqing's eyes, he felt a little guilty.
But his children were watching him, and he straightened himself up.
Li Yuanqing a smile, "let your children come."
"Yes."
After a while, shunzi's 100 soldiers also practiced the three-stage shooting, and the effect was good, which was similar to that of Yang Xiaobo.Li Yuanqing nodded and said to the two people, "you are both pretty good. However, this is only static state, no enemy, can give you free shooting environment. Next, you should continue to increase the intensity of training, change the environment, not always practice in the school field. Changsheng island is so big and there are so many wild places that it can be used as a battlefield. If the opposite is not a target, but the eight banners of Houjin, can the children deal with it freely? "
Shunzi and Yang Xiaobo were both somewhat proud. They were stunned when they heard Li Yuanqing's words.
They just know how to do things step by step, but they never want to change the environment.
Li Yuanqing smiles and softens his tone. "You are both young and smart. You know, JianNu is not only powerful, but also extremely ferocious. We can't leave ourselves room for failure. Once we want to fight, we must win. If you want to attack, you must take it. Do you understand? "
"Yes. Thank you, general Shunzi and Yang Xiaobo rush to their knees.
For a moment, the soldiers beside him fell to their knees.
Li Yuanqing looks at the sky and slowly spits out his turbid breath.
At this time, Changsheng island is full of troops and food. Li Yuanqing also deliberately increased the training intensity of each department. There are two months to go before July. During these two months, Li Yuanqing is also looking forward to how far these children can grow?
……
With the passing of the day, inadvertently, the hot June has come.
The weather suddenly became hot, and the atmosphere of Changsheng island began to become hot and dry.
I don't know when, a piece of news came out of Changsheng island. After the summer offensive, Changsheng island will hold a grand blind date ceremony. At that time, as long as they are meritorious soldiers, they can participate.
Even if there are so many rules, they can't fall in love with each other.
But at this time, this news, not only let them see hope, but also let all single men see hope.
On the tenth day of June, Li Yuanqing thoroughly confirmed the news in his routine ten day speech, and promised that as long as they were in agreement, Li Yuanqing would give a big gift to each couple.
Li Yuanqing's speech instantly detonated the whole Changsheng island.
Not only did the women's dependents begin to have expectations, especially the soldiers, who were eager to work hard and practice hard to make contributions in the midsummer offensive.
At this time, several dozens of officers, including Li Yuanqing, Shang Laoliu, Guan Canghai, Xu Heizi, Duan Xiliang, Wang Hai, shunzi, Yang Xiaobo, Huang Guoshan, Liu Dadou, and other dozens of officers of the 1000th regiment at or above the general level came to the scene to watch the joint exercise of the three thousand Corps.
According to the military regulations set by Li Yuanqing, all the troops under his command practice in a small way every day, one in ten days and one in January.
Small exercises are the overall training of a thousand corps, and big exercises are the exercises of all the troops under their command.
At this time, it was the end of June. It was only a few days before the summer offensive in July. Li Yuanqing also wanted to see what the results of his children's practice were in these days.
In this era, different from later generations, the communication technology and equipment are so developed. At this time, when such large-scale exercises are carried out, all the orders of the officer must be realized through the flag.
Li Yuanqing's Changsheng camp had almost no cavalry. At this time, the drill was mainly based on the formation.
There is always a natural weakness in the mobility of farming people against nomadic people.
Even though the various departments of Changsheng camp have already equipped with some bird spears, due to the limitation of productivity, there are still a few of them. At this time, there are more than 2000 soldiers in Changsheng camp, and less than 400 are bird gun soldiers.
The rest are mainly long spearmen, a small number of sword and shield soldiers, and a small group of less than 50 heavy armour soldiers organized by Duan Xiliang.
This kind of force, in the face of the Eight Banners after the Jin Dynasty, still can only rely on the formation.
In the formation of the Ming army, the most commonly used are round array and square array. Although these two formations are ancient, they are extremely effective. They can effectively prevent the impact of cavalry, like hedgehogs, to protect the safety of the core.
At this time, the drill is a square array.
The square array has four sides and four corners. The soldiers only need to form a straight line from front to rear, left and right. It is not like the circular array, but also needs to swing the radian. It is the most basic formation.
People are not educated at all.
Even though Li Yuanqing's various departments had been practicing for two months, and officers in front of them were waving flags, and there were grass-roots officers in the queue shouting desperately, the grass-roots soldiers of all departments were still in a state of chaos, as if they were in a rush to a big fair.
Some grass-roots officers were hoarse. It took only half an hour for a simple square array to be displayed.
But even so, it was enough to please the officers.
Liu Dadou stood up excitedly and looked at it again and again, "general, this, these kids, really, really only practiced for two months?"Li Yuanqing was speechless? Dadou, do you think they're doing a good job? You are an elite of Guangning army. How long did it take for Luo Shuai to line up
Liu Dadou said, "general, there are more than 5000 people in Luo Shuai's headquarters. I'm afraid it will take two or three hours to form this array."
Li Yuanqing couldn't help being stunned. For two or three hours? Well, what's this concept? Isn't it five or six hours?
If we start to line up at 6:00 in the morning, but we can't finish the array until noon at least, how about fighting Mao?
The officers under his command were also pleased, that is, Guan Canghai and Duan Xiliang, who also nodded repeatedly.
It can be seen that they are very satisfied with the training results of their children.
Li Yuanqing's face was cold.
If this is in later generations, even if it is 2000 ordinary junior high school students, this is too simple to list the formation, it will take more than ten minutes at most.
If we meet the Houjin cavalry on a narrow road and it takes an hour to form an array, then how can we fight this battle?
I'm afraid the other side has already rushed in before you are in line.
What's up with the eight banners?
Looking at Li Yuanqing's poor face, all the officers were frightened and did not dare to speak any more.
Li Yuanqing coldly glanced at them and said, "from today on, all the soldiers have been practicing together. This square array must be assembled within a quarter of an hour. "
