Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 73: On Track

Luoding City is now a large military camp. All the houses that can live in are full of people. Even so, there are still more than 3,000 people who have nowhere to live. As a last resort, Song Xianggong organized people to clean up the ruins in Xicheng overnight, thanks to Zhou Shixiang In Deqing Shi and the Green Camp purchased a batch of tents, and only then did they reluctantly settle down.

The size of the public treasury has been expanded by dozens of times compared to before the expedition to Deqing, and several acres of land have been piled up for money, grain, and supplies. Only the fifty soldiers under Zhao Sihai were unable to undertake the responsibility of supervising the public treasury. From the Laofengzhuang miners, 100 men were drawn into two teams and handed over to Zhao Sihai for unified command.

The public treasury is the most important source of money and food for the Taiping Camp. It can be said that it is the lifeblood of the entire Taiping Camp. Once the public treasury is lost, the Taiping Camp cannot maintain its operation. Therefore, the appointment of Zhao Sihai to try hundreds of households did not arouse the opposition of other chief banner officers, and Tie Yi, a miner representative and a Luo cleric, had no objection to Zhou Shixiang’s arrangement of taking away the miners.

After expanding the public treasury to manage the army, Song Xianggong selected 200 people from 20 small camps to be responsible for the operation of the public treasury. These people are called the Kujun army, and their main task is to be responsible for the transportation, transfer and distribution of public library materials. Of course, because they mainly undertake heavy physical work, they can get half of the original rations every day, and they can also receive some wine and meat at the end of the month.

In addition to the library army, Song Xianggong also established the position of library ambassador, imitating the lighting army warehouse, and Lin Wanfu served as the responsibility.

There were 20 library officials below Ambassador Ku, most of whom were employees of the Lin Family Rice Shop. This point was brought up by Lin Wanfu himself. He said that it has been a long time since he was planning, and he used to do this kind of things in the past. He was familiar with it and used it smoothly. , in case of mistakes, it is even worse to explain. Song Xianggong thought that this was not a big deal, so he followed Lin Wanfu.

Because Zhou Shixiang had already told Song Xianggong that he would not stay in Luoding for too long, Song Xianggong transferred most of the vehicles of the entire camp to the public warehouse, and all those who could drive were transferred to Taiping Camp. When the camp left Luoding, the money and supplies from the public treasury were able to set off smoothly with the army.

In private, Zhou Shixiang also greeted Duke Xiang of Song. If the situation is unfavorable, he will protect the public treasury first and the campers second. That is, if the Taiping Camp lost the battle with the Qing army, Song Xianggong’s task was to ensure that the money and food in the public treasury could be transferred quickly.

What is the subtext of Zhou Shixiang’s greeting, Song Xianggong naturally knows, he is no longer the nerd who didn’t hear things outside the window and only read the books of sages and sages. More than ten years of experience have allowed him to prioritize his priorities, and he can be willing to let go of his heart. The kindness of women. If that day forced him to make a choice, he would follow Zhou Shixiang’s orders without hesitation.

There were Ku ambassadors and Ku officials, as well as Ku army. As a result, the management and operation of the public treasury began to take shape. Ambassador Ku led the staff in charge of the entry and exit registration of money and grain, the army was responsible for the transportation and distribution of materials, and Zhao Sihai led the 150 soldiers in charge of the security of the public treasury. The public treasury, after all the staff are in place, is the first institution to stabilize and operate first.

Lin Wanfu couldn’t help but be overjoyed when he learned that he was appointed as the ambassador of Taiping Ying Gongkuku. Zhou Shixiang saw him nod and bow behind Song Xianggong’s **** several times. When Lin Wanfu saw him, it was probably because of his daughter. , slightly embarrassed.

It’s not that Lin Wanfu didn’t ask Song Xianggong what his daughter was doing at Zhou Shixiang’s place, but he was taught a few words by Song Xianggong, and he was so frightened that he didn’t dare to ask any more. It’s just that every time he sees Zhou Shixiang, his eyes are a bit like the old man is looking at his son-in-law, but he doesn’t take his daughter to heart at all. Intellectually, he is an enlightened person.

Although 20 small camps were set up, and the camp elders and camp managers were appointed, each camp was still noisy for a while. I am a native of my hometown, so I can be confident in my heart, and I don’t have doubts about this or fear of that. However, some campheads were made up of temporary campers, such as those who had been coerced by Jiang He, who were surrounded by strangers, and then thought about the “ruthless” Taiping Army, and then thought about being robbed. In a home that is completely clean, looking at the wives, children and children around me who are also trembling and scared, I can’t rest my heart.

The human heart, once it cannot be quiet, will always move.

When people move, things go bad. Gossip and slander are naturally indispensable, and there are more people who secretly think about running away. In the face of this situation, Zhou Shixiang has nothing to do except for strict supervision. Song Xianggong kept urging the camp elders and the camp management to inspect the campers and do some comforting work. Of these, those who have voluntarily joined the Taiping Camp do not need it, and those who have been “coerced” by you are useless no matter how much you say.

Fortunately, food plays a role that humans cannot. When the first meal was placed in front of the old, weak, women and children in each camp on time, everyone’s hearts finally calmed down when faced with the food. No matter how bad it is, the ones that can give you a stutter will not be too bad.

It took Song Xianggong’s hard work to arrange the meals. He looked at each battalion to see if those battalions had selected people to cook, whether the stoves in each battalion were complete or not, and the cooking of the rice. Familiar or not. No way, this is the first large-scale meal in Taiping Camp, even if it is only superficial, Song Xianggong must be in place. After walking down this trip, he was so tired that his legs were cramping, and he felt that this general manager, money and grain officer, was no easier than the county magistrate.

Eating is a big deal~www.readwn.com~ Excretion is a big deal. Originally, Luo Ding only had more than 3,000 people, but now it has more than tripled. The more people there are, the more yellow and white things will be. What can the ancients pay attention to, they can find a corner when they are young, but Luoding is located in Guangdong, and the weather is getting warmer day by day. Got it?

Zhou Shixiang didn’t want the newly established Taiping Camp to encounter such a disease, so he confessed to Song Xianggong, and strictly ordered the old organizations of each camp to dig manure pits in the camp, men and women to go to the toilet separately, and it is strictly forbidden to excrete at the water source. In addition, drinking hot water has also become an express provision of Taiping Camp.

On the first day, the situation was very chaotic; on the second day, the situation was still a little chaotic; on the third day, the situation was not chaotic.

After everything in the rear camp was on track as Zhou Shixiang had imagined, he could finally free up his hands to solve the problem of forming an army of miners.

There were more than 400 miners in Laofengzhuang. After taking 100 to Zhao Sihai, Zhou Shixiang had a headache on how to organize the remaining 300 people.

The young man Tie Yi has a great influence on the miners. Zhou Shi saw the respect of those miners for Tie Yi with his own eyes. Considering that these miners live in a fixed pattern, they can become an elite force without training. Just as Qi Jiajun was mostly a miner in Yiwu, Zhejiang, and the elites of the Taiping Army in later generations were also miners in Guangxi, Zhou Shixiang naturally wanted to create an elite miner. But whether this force should be dispersed or concentrated, he was undecided. While he was thinking about this, Tie Yi came to invite him over, saying that he wanted to show him the medicine he brought from the copper mine.

The home affairs are generally finished, and the official update will resume tomorrow.
