"As of the 20th, all the officers of the Third Division have been appointed. The division has three infantry bureaus and a mixed flag force. It has one commander, one deputy commander, one division town governor, and one deputy division commander.
, there are three people from the hundred generals, three deputy hundred generals, three bureau and town governors, ten flag generals, and thirty team leaders."
After hearing this, Pang Yu looked up at the two people in front of him and asked Mr. Hou, "It's just the second division. Why hasn't the first division been completed? I have clearly signed the appointment and removal list."
Mr. Hou said in a low voice, "Originally, the last batch has been decided, and they were all supposed to take office yesterday. According to the three days of public notice, as your Excellency said, I didn't expect that someone would actually report them."
"Who reports whom?"
"Wu Dacai, the former acting captain of the first bureau, reported that Zheng San'er, the designated captain, had committed a murder in Wangjiang, and also killed and carried civilians in Beixiaguan. Lord Chiang is sending people to verify, so there is still one missing person
.”
"Is Zheng San'er the one with the crooked face?"
"Exactly." Mr. Hou glanced at Pang Yu secretly. He did not expect Wu Dacai to do such a thing. Since the establishment of the garrison camp, there have been fights, thefts and gambling in the camp, but this is the first time that he has been reported.
The image of his crooked face in the first game was unique and unforgettable, so everyone in the army knew about him, but they didn't know his name.
Pang Yu touched his chin and turned to Jiang Guoyong and said, "Does the Zhenfu Division have any clues?"
Jiang Guoyong said calmly, "According to the soldiers who inspected the first bureau in the army, several people have heard Zheng San'er himself say that he used to work as a porter at Wangjiang Wharf and was captured by a group of people from Leigang during a fight.
He knocked out half of the teeth one by one with stones, causing half of his face to become crooked. Then he attacked and killed three people with a knife, fled to Fucheng, met a garrison and recruited soldiers, and joined the army."
Pang Yu knocked on the table. He would interview all the officers to be appointed, even if they were just captains. He was deeply impressed by this crooked face. This man participated in expelling soldiers from the palace as soon as he entered the camp. His attacks were quite ruthless, and he was quickly promoted.
He killed the corps commander. Now that he thinks about it, it really feels like he has killed someone.
"Did he say these himself in the camp, or was there indeed evidence from witnesses?"
"What I said to you, sir, was what he himself said in the camp. Fortunately, Wangjiang is not far away, and my subordinates have sent people to Leigang to investigate."
Pang Yu nodded and said, "As long as there is a source, Wu Dacai is not a false accusation. If it is necessary to verify it, verify it and draw a conclusion as soon as possible. We recruit soldiers from good families in our camp. Since he was able to join the camp in the first place, he must not have told the recruiting officer
He has deliberately concealed his past. No matter how brave he is, I will not accept him. If it is verified that he has killed someone, he will be taken away and locked up in a military prison."
Jiang Guoyong nodded to express his understanding, while Mr. Hou quickly recorded it and borrowed Pang Yu's pen to write it down in his book. He was older and his memory was not as good as in previous years. Pang Yu was busy with things and was always afraid of forgetting things.
Pang Yu waited patiently for him to finish remembering and then said to the two of them, "Don't leak out what Wu Tac Choi reported."
Mr. Hou was the first to say, "Your Excellency, the news has been spread in the first game. I don't know where it leaked. Yao Dongshan went to the barracks to beat Wu Tachai violently. If it weren't for Dong Mingyuan, he might have killed him."
Pang Yu looked at the two of them. Jiang Guoyong should have said the words just now, but Mr. Hou answered first. He was not like this on weekdays. After thinking about it for a while, he understood. He flipped through the table and saw that the town police team yesterday
This was not mentioned in the briefing paper.
Jiang Guoyong said quickly, "It happened last night. Dong Mingyuan should have reported it today."
Pang Yu hummed, "Does the Zhenfu Division have any other opinions on this?"
"My subordinates believe that leaving this team vacant should not affect the training of the First Division until people return from Leigang for verification..."
"What I'm talking about is Yao Dongshan's beating of Wu Dacai."
Jiang Guoyong was stunned when he was asked. It was common for military superiors to beat and scold soldiers. Pang Yu never asked, and the Zhenfu Department never stopped him. Besides, Wu Dacai's actions were also despised by Jiang Guoyong himself.
He felt less like a soldier in the garrison and more like a subordinate official in the Tongcheng County government office.
But Pang Yu didn't look like he was joking, so he quickly organized an answer in his head, but couldn't remember it for a while.
"What do you think, Mr. Hou?"
Mr. Hou bowed to Pang Yu and then to Jiang Guoyong, "Officers beat and scold soldiers every day in the camp, but they are limited to training and violations of military discipline, and they need to be punished according to military regulations. Your Excellency is here when the announcement is made.
The notice stated that as long as it was not groundless and false accusations, dissenters would not be prosecuted. Since there were multiple witnesses in the first round, Wu Tac-choi was not considered a false accusation, and this report was made by the Lord to take care of the housing. Afterwards, a notice was posted, and Ng Tak-choi pressed it.
The announcement was made and there was no violation of the order. Although Yao Dongshan is an officer, he is also bound by military discipline and it is inappropriate to beat the soldiers."
Pang Yu turned to Jiang Guoyong again, "What do Zhenfu Secretary think?"
Jiang Guoyong's forehead was a little sweaty. Pang Yu didn't say a word about his own opinions, but the meaning of asking back and forth was already clear. He couldn't help but look at Hou Shuban twice. He had taken over the office when he was in the Yamen.
There was a beginning, but after arriving at the garrison camp, the Chengfa Office had always been just a document-writing department. It was only today that I discovered that the Chengfa Office was getting stronger.
"I will immediately write to the First Division and ask Yao Dongshan why he beat Wu Dacai yesterday. If it is inconsistent with the law, he will be dealt with according to military law."
Pang Yu said expressionlessly, "After the Zhenfu Division handles the matter, I will know the results."
After saying that, he turned to Mr. Hou and asked, "What else can I do?"
Mr. Hou bowed and said, "Wu Dachai came here early in the morning to take over the housing and applied for transfer to the second department."
Pang Yu looked at Mr. Hou for a moment and then asked, "Does Wang Zenglu want this person?"
"I just came over and asked, and he said he wanted it."
"I have previously approved that anyone who voluntarily goes to the second division can apply, and the office will record the list accordingly."
"My subordinate understands."
Pang Yu glanced at the two of them and said, "There are always small details in everything. Don't lose the big because of the small. The rogue bandits are imminent and nothing can be delayed. I only care about the results. All officers will be on duty before the end of the month."
The two of them bowed and agreed. Pang Yu waved his hand to let them out, and then took out his progress chart to check. His inner hope was to complete the full force before the bandits arrived. Now it seems that full force is feasible, but the full force may be a bit difficult.
Difficulty. The blacksmith shops in Huaining and Tongcheng are basically activated, and Pang Yu can see that the quality of the scale armor is constantly improving and the weight is also reducing. Most of the blacksmith shops have recruited new apprentices, and a large amount of money is concentrated in
An industry immediately changed the resource allocation of society, but still failed to meet his expectations.
Pang Ding came in after a knock on the door and handed Pang Yu a piece of folded paper.
"Master, this is the newspaper published by He Xianya. It was sent to Anqing and just printed."
Pang Yu took it immediately and said a little dissatisfied, "He said at first that it would definitely be released in September, but now October has passed, and it's still a bit yamen style."
The newspaper was printed on both sides, which he was familiar with, and the paper was a little thicker than that used in ordinary books. The masthead was written with the four characters "Jiangnan Times". He immediately looked at the signature of the founding statement below, and it was Zhang Cai. He Xianya had been away for a few months. According to the original
The plan was to publish it in September. In the meantime, He Xianya came back with a letter, saying that there were many articles written by other people in Fushe, but Zhang Pu’s inaugural words were never sent. Now it seems that Zhang Pu still has reservations and will write the inaugural words now.
It was Zhang Cai, Zhang Pu's younger brother, who was considered the second-largest figure in Fushe.
Pang Yu took a quick look at the written content, and found that it was written in the style of reviving ancient learning, with some quotations from scriptures, which Pang Yu couldn't understand. Below the front page was another article named Wu Yingji. This person Pang Yu listened to Fang Yizhi.
As I said, he is an active member of the society and has great appeal within the society.
Turning over the third page, Pang Yu saw Fang Yizhi's article, which was about Yi Xue and his theory of governance, physics, and Zhili. There were several people behind it, whom Pang Yu didn't know. Finally,
The first half of the fourth edition is a novel, one each for Shushan and Gods and Monsters. The first half of the final fourth edition is for current affairs, including the Great Victory at Beixiaguan of the Anqing garrison.
"The garrison camp should be placed on the second page, no brainer." Pang Yu muttered and began to take a closer look.
"In the report of the battle in Jiangbei, bandits invaded Shucheng in September. Governor Zhang Duye of Yingtian sent the supervising army Dao Shi Kefa to lead the troops to ward off the bandits. He used Anqing to guard Pang Yu's troops to guard Beixia Pass. In one battle, nearly a thousand people were beheaded, which is rare in recent times.
After such a great victory, the rogues did not dare to return to Tongcheng... Pang Yu, who guarded Anqing, was a native of Tongcheng. He had studied martial arts and literature for the first time.
, entrenched Yunji Temple in the south of the city, and the people could not resist. Yu was angry and killed the people. He wanted to quell the chaos alone. When he was about to leave, his servants stopped him. He said that there were many thieves in the chaos. Yu said with emotion, "Even though there are thousands of people, I will go.", so he
Attacked Yunji Temple at night, beheaded dozens of thieves, and got twenty-nine heads, and the civil unrest was suppressed. In the ninth year of the year, the rogue bandits invaded the country, and hundreds of dead soldiers were recruited to attack at night, and two thousand were beheaded, but Tongcheng was completely captured. The rain felt in
The atmosphere was rampant and the people's livelihood was difficult. He was angry and joined the army. After accumulating many achievements, he went to Anqing to garrison, and then made another outstanding achievement at Beixia Pass. In fact, he joined the army as a scholar and did not forget to teach the soldiers with the words of saints. His troops were brave and good at fighting discipline.
Yan Ming is supported by the people of Anqing, and they all say that the garrison camp is here, and there is no need to worry about Jiangnan."
"The writing is quite objective. Keep a few copies of this first issue and give it to relatives and others. It may become a precious cultural relic in the future." Pang Yu put down the newspaper with satisfaction, raised his head and said to Pang Ding, "He Xianya is doing a good job.
, although it is a little later than originally scheduled, but the proportion is well grasped, especially the four words "Jiangnan Wuyou", which captures the main audience of this newspaper, which is the scholars and common people in Jiangnan, which is very good. But the previous sentence
'Everyone says that the garrison camp is here, Jiangnan has no worries', the point is not quite right. The core of the propaganda here should be the official, it should be called 'Everyone says that Pang garrison is here, Jiangnan has no worries', so it still misses the meaning, but the flaws do not hide the good points.
, Young people have a process of experience. Xiao Ding, let the office of the waiting book arrange printing. In addition to sending it to Fushe, it will be distributed for free at Anqing Pier for all the passing guests to see. "
Pang Ding took a sip in his heart. Seeing Pang Yu's expression of admiration, he couldn't help but said, "Master, you put so much money into it and gave it to others for free. In the end, you just let others watch the excitement. I don't know what the purpose is."
What is it?"
Pang Yu stared, "What do you know? This is the carrier of culture. Compared with culture, money is nothing. Distribute it more at the dock to spread culture and educate all people!"
…
"This newspaper is more comfortable to wipe your butt with, much better than using tree leaves. Tan Leizi, hurry up."
In a patch of reeds below Shengtang Ferry, Tang Ershuan had just stood up, holding half a newspaper in his hand.
A bald man stood up from another place. This man was short and thin, with a lot of leprosy on his head.
"Bah, Tan Leizi, this is what you called me." The man stood up and cursed, "I'm a tooth shop. Does the tooth shop know? If I don't tell Guan a broker, then the dealer won't be able to buy things or hire a ship.
, where are you going to pick the goods? When I am on the street in Huaining, everyone must respect Mr. Tan when they see him. I am also familiar with Team Leader Cao of the county government. Ask Manhuaining, who dares not to give me the goods?
To save your face, don’t call me Tan Leizi from now on.”
Tang Ershuan quickly smiled in a flattering manner and picked up the half of the newspaper in his hand. Suddenly he found that his hand was a little black, "The newspaper issued by this huge man is full of ink. I wonder if the buttocks are blackened. What a sin."
Tan Leizi nodded at Tang Ershuan, "What are you doing with free paper? If it's good paper without ink, wouldn't Pang Da know how to keep it for himself?"
Tang Ershuan sighed, "Pang Pang certainly doesn't use so much ink, Tan Lei... I tell you, when there was a flood last time, we lived in the garrison yamen, and Pang Pang was also a good person, and I
We moved to the military camp, and the back office was given to the female relatives of the Caobang, so we also went to check it out, the one there was the best!"
He raised his hand to describe it, but he held it in the air for a long time, unable to think of anything to say.
Tan Laizi next to him said disdainfully, "What do you know, a country bumpkin? Is the toilet of a huge man made of gold? Such a garrison yamen is considered very rich. When I was in Luofu, the master appreciated it very much. I went in every second and third time."
Yes, we don’t want to sit on the pear wood chair. Most people use ivory chopsticks. Lao Tan and I use an ivory bench. We choose the ebony bed to sleep on. What should we cover on the bed? Have you seen Hu Si? Lao Tan.
We don’t even need a quilt, just cover it with dozens of kilograms of lake silk satin, and pad it with tiger skin. It’s so comfortable that you’ve never thought about it in your life.”
Tang Ershuan was speechless. This Tan Leizi was a porter on the pier, but he was a small private tooth at the bottom. He was ugly and could not receive many small orders a month. He felt that he did not earn as much as a porter. This Tan Leizi was at the port.
Unfortunately, other dental shops ostracized him, and finally he was on the same level as the porters of Caogang, but he was a dental dealer after all, and although the people of Caogang looked up to him, they looked down upon him a little. The same was true for Tang Ershuan, but in the end he didn't think of this leprosy.
I have never seen such a big market.
After a long while, Tang Ershuan said naa, "Then I won't think about it for the rest of my life. Tan Leizi, you have seen the world. The garrison camp is recruiting sailors again. I want the monthly salary. In the past, the Lu camp was afraid of being killed by rogue bandits, but now there is water."
The camp is over, whether those Jiang disciples will kill anyone or not, do you think we can go to the water camp or not?"
Tan Laizi was walking in front, and the two of them arrived at the dock in a blink of an eye. After hearing this, he turned back to look at Tang Ershuan, and said as he walked, "The sailors are naturally better than the land camp. They are all working as workers at the dock, but they are not good people. Of course they are not good people.
What's the taste of Qiu Ba? Look at me, Lao Tan, I won't go to the garrison even if I beg you to do so."
Tang Ershuan looked at his small body and asked doubtfully, "The garrison camp really begs you, but they clearly said that you went there by yourself, and you didn't mention the stone locks because they didn't want..."
Tan Leizi stopped, turned around like a whirlwind, stood up on tiptoes, grabbed Tang Er Shuan's collar, and cursed loudly, "Who is talking nonsense, saying that I can't lift the stone lock? I have to ask clearly today, do you think so?"
Who said that, I will make him kneel on the ground and beg for mercy today."
Before Tan Laizi's yelling and cursing had finished, a man walked out from beside him, reached out and grabbed him by the back of his collar, and threw him to the ground like a chicken, and then came up to punch and kick him.
Tang Ershuan was about to try to dissuade him, but he recognized that the attacker was a man from Cao's wharf, a big tooth shop, and hurriedly hid aside.
The dock man was beating and scolding at the same time, "I'm telling you, what can you do, you bastard? You still lift the stone lock, you can't lift the toilet, and you want me to beg for mercy. If you don't beg for mercy, I'll beat you to death."
"Please have mercy, please have mercy! Master Cao, please spare my life!" Tan Mengtou below yelled.
The dock refused to give in, "Kneel down on the ground and beg for mercy!"
"You've done something wrong." Tang Erchuan hid behind the onlookers and peeped, fearing that the dock would think he was with Tan Mantou, seeing that the man had received a heavy beating today.
Tan Laotou refused to kneel all the time. He was beating and screaming at the dock. When he heard a scolding from outside, several people in short coats walked in.
A few people didn't even look at the pier. They stood in the middle of the field and cursed, "Water Camp Drill, don't block the way, disperse."
The dock head hesitated for a moment, then kicked the man hard and cursed, "I'll make you kneel down and beg for mercy next time."
After that, he walked away in a swagger. The other onlookers lost sight of the excitement and dispersed as soon as Shui Ying arrived. Tang Ershuan hurriedly went over to help Tan Mantou and dragged him aside.
Tan Laitou's mouth and nose were bleeding. He wiped away the nosebleed and cursed bitterly, "Even if he walked fast, if the water camp hadn't interrupted me, I would have taken action. I, Old Tan, am not someone to be bullied."
.”
Tang Ershuan raised his head and glanced. People from Shuiying were getting on the boat. They were all wearing white short coats. They looked energetic. He murmured, "Shuiying is really good."
