When Gao Cangjin saw something bad, he turned around and ran away on horseback.
A good man does not suffer immediate losses. If his own soldiers are so cowardly, they may not be able to escape unless they run away.
A large group of 500 militiamen rushed out of the wheat field and chased these people directly.
Bows, arrows, and guns were fired at from behind, and those who ran slowly were hit and fell to the ground.
Now in Yang Fan's territory, the Jiading Regiment, the Teaching Regiment, and the Xinghe Regiment are all equipped with flintlock rifles. And the nine-volume muskets have all been retired from active service. These muskets have been eliminated and are currently handed over to the militia. Almost every
Every household has one.
At this time, across the entire western border, a large number of rebels who dispersed into the fields to force farmers to harvest wheat were met by militiamen. Volleys of muskets were fired everywhere, and gunshots were heard one after another.
The five to six thousand rebel soldiers who came to steal wheat were scattered and went to the fields, and were beaten by ten brigades and an equal number of militiamen.
Ji Dazhuang's family was so frightened that they lay on the ground and did not dare to move. The four of them, father and son, held their heads and shivered. They saw groups of militiamen rushing past.
"Dad, the gun won't hit us," the younger son said in panic.
Ji Dazhuang protected his three sons tightly under his body, and said with a trembling voice: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I have a father. I have a father."
After a while, the militiamen chased the defeated soldiers and ran far away. Only then did the farmers in the fields dare to get up from the ground. Looking at the mess on the ground and the trampled wheat, they started to cry loudly.
With great difficulty, we rented land from the Yang family and achieved a bumper harvest. However, we were hit by a military disaster. Not only did we suffer huge losses in food, but some families were also beaten and killed.
They were distressed about the loss, but also worried about the Yang family's collection of rent. After all, the Yang family had given such good conditions, and they had nothing to say if they could not pay the rent.
The farmers are all honest farmers. They cried for a while and could only accept the reality helplessly.
One after another, they bent down and picked up the ears of wheat on the ground. At this time, every penny they could get back was worth it. They all came from Zunhua to escape the famine and almost died of starvation on the way.
They value food very much, and no one dares to throw away even a grain of wheat.
After Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru arrived at the Xincheng Military Command, Xiao Niangpi took out the troop deployment seal he had kept close to his chest and summoned the civil and military leaders of Yang Fan's system for a meeting.
The director of the Military Order Department is concurrently served by Yang Fan. The only deputy director is Tu Shanyue. The military mobilization and command authority of Yang Fan's territory rests with the Military Order Department.
According to the regulations of Yang Fan's system, in an emergency, if his wife holds Yang Fan's troop deployment seal, it is equivalent to Yang Fan's personal presence and the right to handle major affairs.
After the people from the military command office saw the seal, they immediately contacted Yang Fan's military radio station through the radio. After being connected, Xiao Niangpi sent a situation report to Yang Fan. Soon, he received Yang Fan's instructions.
According to emergency management regulations, Yang Fan authorized the highest military command of Tu Shanyue's territory, and Lin Yueru cooperated with Tu Shanyue as the person in charge of intelligence.
After Tu Shanyue obtained military power, he immediately issued an order to mobilize the militia.
All men from three towns on the western border, aged over fifteen and under fifty, were mobilized. They were organized into temporary combat units according to each production squad, squadron, and brigade. After the troops were assembled, they waited for orders.
These people have more than five days of training every month. The training time should not be less than two months a year. Although they are militiamen, they can go into battle as soon as they are issued weapons. At least compared to the Ming Dynasty, which did not train once or twice a month.
The camp and guards are strong.
Because Yang Fan's domestic slaves farmed the Yang family's land, they did not have to pay land rent and only had to bear military obligations. Therefore, military training was very tight. Training was intensive every month.
After the order was issued, various towns were noisy. The military service station opened its warehouse to distribute weapons and ammunition.
The alarm bells rang in the earth building, and the serving men from every household rushed out of their homes to gather in the square. Everyone must find their direct superior to report.
Now, the temporary villages built in the early days are basically abandoned, and the people are concentrated in thirty earth buildings built of stones and pure earth. These earth buildings are all over the towns in Yang Fan's territory.
Each of these castle-like military fortresses has
Tens of thousands of people live there.
The three westernmost towns are Cixi Town, Yueqing Town, and Chengtan Town.
These three towns are all in the westernmost part of the new city, between the north and south mountains. After these three towns, there will be the flooded area of the reservoir in the future. Therefore, the three towns are arranged in a line from north to south, guarding the western border.
In the White Tiger Festival Hall of the Military Headquarters, a large green table with a length of five meters and a width of five meters is placed in the middle. In the middle of the big table is a sand table of the entire Ji Town terrain. The girl, dressed in the uniform of an army major general, stood in front of the sand table holding a wooden pole.
Behind him stood Lin Yueru, dressed in the uniform of a rear admiral.
Song Yingsheng, director of the Civil Affairs Department, stood aside. Song Yingxing's eldest brother is now the head of the civil service in Yang Fan's system. In fact, he has the status of a family leader. He must attend such an important meeting.
Sister Xiangyi, who is in charge of finance and material cashier, also stood aside. When mobilizing the army, you must have money and baggage to accompany you, otherwise big things will happen.
"Madam, Second Madam, the current situation is very serious. There are varying degrees of turmoil in the entire Ji Town. The Jizhou City opposite is in flames, and the number of rioters outside the city has reached more than 30,000. Basically, this time the order was issued
The eliminated new army. After seeing that the docks and outer cities were looted, they swarmed into the countryside and began to plunder the countryside." Guo Pu, Section Chief of the Intelligence Department, reported.
"Originally, the veteran army was not affected by this disarmament and was relatively stable. They watched the new recruits make trouble and did not participate. But then the news came that the elite veterans in the three towns of Datong were being laid off. The veterans blew up their camps, and these people followed.
There is a rebellion. The whole east of the capital is full of rioters looting."
The little girl's eyelashes trembled and her eyes sparkled as she listened. She was calm and calm during important events, and she had the air of a general.
The originally tense atmosphere also relaxed. She knew that at times like this, she could not be anxious. If she was anxious, everyone would be anxious as well.
"I don't care about other places. That is a matter for His Majesty and the Cabinet. I only care about our territory and not to suffer losses. The new city must not be attacked under any circumstances. Our industry is the top priority. We must do it at all costs."
Protect the new city and the hydraulic machinery factory area along the river." Xiao Niangpi said calmly.
"Currently, we have mobilized militiamen from the three towns, totaling 25 brigades and more than 7,000 people. They have driven out the rebels who entered the territory. The wheat fields in the far west have been ruined and the damage to various places is being counted.
, will be reported later.”
Tu Shanyue was listening to the report from the Intelligence Department. The staff put corresponding signs on the sand table to show the current situation.
At this time, a messenger hurried in and reported: "Mrs. Qi and your lords, today at noon, a large number of rebels broke into Xianghe County. The county magistrate escaped. After looting the treasury, the rebels set fire to the county government office."
Suddenly there was a roar in the hall, and everyone was stunned.
This is no longer an ordinary riot. This is the rhythm of rebellion.
