Wednesday looked at Qu Neng's face and was unmoved, so he changed his mouth and said, "Brother Qu, hasn't he forgotten the bloody battle of the Hunhe River back then?" Thousands of Zhejiang soldiers died in Wang's division, and even the battalion head of the Qi family army no longer existed.

It is reported that Brother Qu's uncle was killed in this battle, doesn't Brother Qu want to re-establish the head of the Qi family's army and hate the family with the Snow Country? ”

Qu Neng, who was in his 30s, was finally moved, he gritted his teeth and said: "How can I forget, how dare I forget." Since my Qu family followed Wu Yigong to fight, it is the first time that I have not fought so many uncles and brothers, so I can not hate.

However, what I hate more are those Shenyang people who turned their guns to bombard our Ming reinforcements, as well as the friendly troops in Liaodong who did not save them when they saw death, and the princes of the court who did not think about rectifying their troops and horses for revenge after the Battle of Hunhe, but took care of themselves for power and profit.

My Qi family army died in the king's affairs, but in order to suppress the momentum of our southern army, the generals of Jizhou Town took the opportunity to cancel the battalion head of the Qi family army. There were originally tens of thousands of southern soldiers in Jizhou Town, but now there are only 800 people left, and I wait for the bereaved families of the Qi family, what ability do we have to avenge this great revenge? ”

Wednesday said with a fearful face: "I know the indignation in Brother Qu's heart, but since he ascended the throne today, he has never forgotten the exploits of the Qi family's army.

Otherwise, Brother Qu would not have jumped from a small minister transporting grain to the chief of staff of Jizhou Town, in charge of military discipline and logistics in Jizhou Town.

Yiwu took the lead in implementing compulsory education, which was maintained by the government every year, and the families of Zhejiang soldiers and martyrs were completely exempted from taxes and forced labor, and there was no difference in treatment with Xiucai.

Your Majesty did this, can't you resolve the resentment in Brother Qu's heart? ”

Qu Neng arched his hand to the west and said: "Your Majesty's kindness, I naturally remember it, and I have made up my mind to live and die with this city to repay the grace of God." ”

Wednesday nodded and said, "Since you even risked your life, who are you worried about offending?" If Zunhua is guaranteed and strives for the number of a field division, is Brother Qu willing to work with me to rebuild the Qi family's army? ”

Qu Neng was silent for a moment, bowed to Wednesday, and then said, "If you are lucky enough not to die, you should obey your fate." ”

Wednesday was in a good mood, the reason why he dared to come to Zunhua to take risks was to calculate the strength of Qu Neng, a southern soldier, otherwise relying on dozens of military cadets, he would not be sure that he would grasp the power of the people in Zunhua City before the Houjin army arrived in Zunhua.

"Okay, as long as you and my brothers are of the same heart, this Zunhua City is the place where our new Qi family army was established.

Now that the time is pressing, there are a few important matters, and I ask Brother Qu to arrange people to help complete them, otherwise when the slave soldiers appear outside the city, the people in the city will be panicked, and the situation will be difficult to control. ”

Qu Neng immediately replied: "But do you count the number of people inside and outside the city?" I then ordered someone to call the officials of the six houses in this county, they are very familiar with the local population, and they will definitely let Brother Zhou grasp the population details of this Zunhua City as soon as possible. ”

Wednesday Wei shook his head and said: "The top priority now is to ask Brother Qu to send someone out to demolish the bridges on the Shahe River and the Li River, and first cut off the desire of the big families in the city to flee." Otherwise, when the news of the fall of Da'ankou came, the big families in the city continued to flee, and the people were in a panic, and they would still accept the order to separate from their families and hand over the grain.

Only by cutting off the hope of these people fleeing can they give up everything, fight against the water, and fight to the death. After Brother Qu sent people to destroy the bridges on these two rivers, he might as well let them spread it again, and the scouts of the slave soldiers had already appeared on the road to Jizhou. Then the school personnel inside and outside the city can be counted in Zunhua, and the work of collecting materials can be smoother. ”

Qu Neng only hesitated for a moment, then called a personal soldier on the side and issued Wednesday's request. At this moment, he hoped more than anyone else that he could teach Jiannu a lesson in Zunhua City.

After watching the soldier ride away, Wednesday Wei continued to Qu Neng: "If you want to defend against the slave soldiers outside the city, you must issue weapons to these young people, although the children of Youyan have always had a tradition of practicing martial arts, but the fighting between the two armies is not something that individual martial arts can compete.

What's more, most of these young men have only learned some fur, and their fitness is acceptable, and if they want to fight with those old slave soldiers, they are just sent to death. Even if fortifications were built around the city with the help of private houses, limiting the power of the slave soldiers' elite cavalry, the slave soldiers' bows and arrows were enough to disperse the people who did not know how to fight.

It was to let the people outside the city fight against the Houjin slave soldiers, in addition to sending soldiers to mix in and teach and command. It is necessary to let them know that they are also capable of causing damage to the slaves.

If these people want to have the ability to kill and injure slaves as soon as possible, the best weapon is firearms. I remember that the General Staff has issued a total of 4,700 arquebuses to Zunhua City this year, and I wonder how many arquebuses are still in Zunhua City now? *、How much is the reserve of lead blocks? ”

Qu Neng lowered his head and thought for a while, then replied: "The northern soldiers have always disliked firearms such as arquebuses, except for the 150 guns in the Santun camp, 250 for the defenders at each entrance of the Great Wall, and a firearms of 800 people in the city, the other arquebuses are still stacked in the arsenal of the West Gate.

As for * and lead, since Zunhua City was designated as the logistics supply center of Jizhou Town last year, the * reserve standard was set at 300,000 catties, and the lead block plus lead bullet was 1.5 million catties.

However, in addition to the military*, the Qian'an area and the Guanwai Rehe area are also under the supervision of the town, so there are still more than 60 million catties of minerals stored in the city. If the war is tight, these* can also be used for military purposes. ”

Wednesday was surprised and said, "This means that there are enough 3,500 arquebuses to arm these young men?" This is really great, let's put up the shelf of the Zunhua Garrison Division now, can Brother Qu first borrow 300 sergeants who are good at using firearms, 200 veterans to me, let me support this scene of the Garrison Division first? ”

The strength of Wednesday's request was almost two-thirds of Qu Neng's current strength, but he agreed without blinking a corner of his eye. Since he had decided to join forces with Wednesday in order to restore the head of the Qi family's army, Qu Neng was also a little desperate to press the last bit of essence of the southern soldiers of Jizhou Town.

Qu Neng knew that his talent was not enough to restore the prestige of the Qi family's army, not to mention that it had been almost 10 years since the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, and the southern soldiers in Jizhou Town had either been swallowed up by other battalion leaders, or had returned to their hometown in frustration.

Of the remaining 8 or 900 southern soldiers, only 2 or 3 hundred were the remnants of the Qi family's army, and the rest were recruits who had been recruited over the years. Although they held on to the last bit of strength of the southern soldiers, if there was no general to lead them, this ash would eventually disappear without a trace.

Qu Neng himself also knew that the combat effectiveness of this southern soldier was really far from the Qi family army in the bloody battle of the Hunhe River back then. The only similarity between them is about the spirit left by the Zhejiang soldiers who rejected the Japanese in the south and drove the Mongols in the north.

In this case, it is better to give it a go than Wednesday fear, if it succeeds, the Qi family army will be reborn from the ashes and live up to the aspirations of the ancestors. If it fails, it will be better to fight a vigorous battle, than to disappear into the ravines in the north in obscurity, so that the world will remember that the Qi family army still has such a bereaved family.

Qu Neng arranged a house in the east of the city for Wednesday, and he originally wanted to arrange Wednesday to be next to the General Administration. But Wednesday Wei refused this kindness, he came to Zunhua with the intention of snatching credit, so he naturally did not want to live with the officials in Jizhou Town and Zunhua City.

Therefore, he chose a mansion far away from the yamen of the official residence and made it his own residence and the yamen of the security department.

Wednesday Wei and the entourage of the students were slightly assigned a room, and then turned back to the lobby to distribute the work with Qu Neng.

Zunhua City is divided into four independent garrison areas around four city gates, and each garrison area is divided into five small war zones. The 20 trainees who came with him, plus the 200 veterans assigned by Qu Neng, were assigned to these 20 war zones.

Within three days, they will be familiar with all the information in their defense area, grasp all the population in the defense area, organize their troops, draw up battle plans, and repair the fortifications in the defense area according to the instructions.

The remaining 14 trainees will form a 50-member killer team with 300 firearms troops as the core to train arquebus units and carry out combat missions in various defense areas. And this unit is the main force that Wednesday fears to kill the enemy, and the young men in each defense area are just their cover.

After assigning the task, Wednesday said to the people in front of the hall with a cold expression: "After the defense area is demarcated, it can be rotated every 10 days, but within these 10 days, if you don't get my order, you can only stick to the defense area and not retreat without authorization."

Even if the defense areas of the monarchs have been demolished to the ground by the slave soldiers, and all the young and strong men of their men have been killed in battle, if they have no choice but to retreat to other defense areas, the commanders of each defense area must immediately enforce military discipline to set an example. Especially for the young people who dared to flee to other defense areas during the war, they were all killed on the spot, and there was no need to ask.

Of course, there must be rewards and punishments. Gentlemen, after this battle, it will inevitably reach the heavens, and I don't need to say more. But for the people who assisted me in defending the city in Jizhou: first, after the Houjin retreated, those who assisted in the war were given 30 acres of land for men and 15 acres for women, sacrificing twice as much.

Second, if you behead a level one during the battle, you can replace it as a backup for the killer group, and you don't have to be trapped in the defense area anymore. Those who can assist in killing the enemy will be promoted to volunteer, lead the defense, and if they are wounded, they can enter the city to recuperate. And for the families of the above two, the food standard has risen..."

Although Wednesday's words were murderous, these students who came with him were only excited. They came with Wednesday this time to risk their lives to fight. In addition, many students whose families are at various entrances to the Great Wall have already heard the news of the Houjin breakthrough when they first arrived in Zunhua, and it is unknown whether their families will survive, and the idea of revenge against the slave soldiers also accounts for the majority.

And it's hard to find fault with Wednesday's arrangement. The killing of those who crossed the border was cruel, but it also relieved them of the fear of fleeing when these people fought.

There are no less than tens of thousands of people outside the city, and after Houjin enters the customs, the people nearby will inevitably continue to pour to Zunhua, divided into 20 war zones, and each war zone has at least a few thousand young people. These tens of thousands of young men fought with their backs on their backs, and they did not think that this war would be lost.

The young and strong who have survived this war will inevitably be the best source of soldiers, and they will no longer have to worry about being assigned to a place where birds don't.

When these students went down to select the sergeants and followed the Liufang subordinates to register the number of people inside and outside the city, Qu Neng finally couldn't help but ask Zhou Wei: "Grant the field order?" You just brought this one in your last life? In addition to some barren mountains near Zunhua, where else can land be granted? ”
