Chapter 369: A Different Eiliang Mountain Back Camp
Song Jiang felt a little baffled. Why did Chai Daguan say that the Song Dynasty was rotten to the core?
From what he saw and heard, the Song Dynasty was very prosperous and beautiful...
Wu Yong still looked like he had the pearls of wisdom in his hand, and those who didn't know it thought he really knew the specific situation of the Song Dynasty very well.
Chao Gai didn't care at all. It had little to do with him whether the Song Dynasty was in ruins or not. He was just a water bandit leader.
"Haha, there are some things you don't know!"
Chai Daguan smiled and said: "The Song Dynasty began to have problems during the reign of Renzong, otherwise there would not have been two reforms by Fan Zhongyan and later Wang Anshi!"
"If there are no problems with the imperial court, what's the point of reform? Is it just a fool's errand?"
Song Jiang and Wu Yong looked at each other and saw a familiar look in each other's eyes.
The most unpleasant thing is the sense of superiority of noble-born people like Chai Daguan, who knows too many things that the common people and officials at the bottom cannot understand.
"There's no point in talking too much!"
However, Official Chai just wanted to keep his appetite and said leisurely: "As long as you know that more than three-quarters of the current official income of the Song Dynasty is thrown into military expenditures, and there are signs of it getting higher and higher.
I know there is a serious problem in the Song Dynasty!"
He waved his hands and said with a smile: "These have nothing to do with us for the time being. Let's talk about a certain person who grows food on the water island and raises chickens, ducks, geese, and domestic pigs!"
"I'm about to ask the senior official for advice!"
Song Jiang was not polite and said directly: "For such a lowly industry, it is supposed to be handled by high-ranking officials and nobles. It doesn't feel right at all!"
Wu Yong and Chao Gai nodded, feeling quite awkward in their hearts.
How come a strongman's copycat village has turned into a farmhouse?
"As I said before, no matter how popular Liangshan is right now, it is best to be able to be self-sufficient in some food supplies!"
Chai Daguan smiled and said: "If there is a confrontation with the army, we can hold on longer!"
"Also, there are a lot of old, weak, women and children on the mountain, and there are also some young and strong people who are not suitable for fighting. We can't keep them in vain. Being too idle is also troublesome, and might cause trouble. It's better to call them
They get busy!"
This reason is really good, at least Song Jiang and others cannot refute it.
The matter just ended...
Soon, the front camp and the back village of Liangshan completely turned into two different worlds.
The order in the front camp was chaotic. A group of young and strong men had nothing to do. They gathered to gamble and fights often occurred.
What the Chai Daguan people despised the most was the fact that thousands of men were urinating and urinating everywhere, making the entire front camp stinky and making it impossible to stay in some places.
In order to clean up the front camp, the Logistics Department specially formed a cleaning brigade, specifically to put in the guys who had made mistakes, but the mistakes were not big, and they were responsible for cleaning up the dirty things everywhere in the corners.
There is another scene in the back camp...
The ground is clean and tidy, and there are public toilets in every area.
In order to cultivate the hygiene habits of the people under the Logistics Department, Chai Daguan issued a strict order, and at the same time, a group of villagers in Chaijiazhuang were responsible for the specific implementation.
Fortunately, this system has already been implemented in Chaijiazhuang in Cangzhou. These villagers are very familiar with it and just follow the rules of Chaijiazhuang.
Those who defecate in the open or do not follow hygiene rules will be sent directly to the cleaning team and made to work until they vomit.
Fortunately, there are not many old, weak, women and children here in Houying. Except for Song Jiang's old father, few family members of other leaders moved to the mountain.
If it hadn't been for the large-scale relocation of the Chai family in Gaotangzhou and Chai Daguan's family in Cangzhou, which brought many servant women and maids, it would be difficult to see a woman here in Houying.
These people were accustomed to the clean and tidy sanitary environment in Chaijiazhuang, Cangzhou, so they naturally obeyed the orders of Chai Daguan, making the Liangshan rear camp quickly become a clean, tidy and livable environment.
With Chaijiazhuang Zhuang Ding taking the lead, the people assigned to the post-production department will consciously abide by it. Chai Daguan only needs to do a good job in supervision.
The sanitary environment of the rear camp is very good. After getting used to this environment, most of the leaders and sub-leaders affiliated with the rear camp are not very willing to go to the front camp to "suffer".
In addition to improving the sanitary environment, Chaidaguan people also intend to build a planned residential area in Houying.
As Liangshan becomes larger and larger in the future, the number of people, old, weak, women and children going up the mountain will also increase.
Although the leader of Liangshan was not interested in women, he still had a family to arrange and a good place to live, so he couldn't live in a military camp.
Maybe the good generals from ancient times can do it, but the heroes from Liangshan don't have such qualities.
In addition to the strict health regulations and the upcoming residential area, the officials of Chaida attach great importance to the various workshops affiliated with the logistics department and the fishing team.
With the memory of "past life", some workshops specializing in the production of daily necessities, such as soy sauce and vinegar, as well as cotton spinning, flour and oil extraction, were quickly established.
With suitable production technology, strict rules and regulations, and a complete wage guarantee system and reward and punishment system, these workshops quickly came into play.
At least, the thousands of people in Liangshan can be completely self-sufficient in this regard, and can even be sent to neighboring states and counties for sale through good transportation channels, forming a certain scale of commercial network.
In addition, Chai Daguan people also attach great importance to the fishing team.
To this end, he specially found Song Jiang and Chao Gai, and sent Zhang Shun, the gang leader, and Yan Luo, Ruan Xiaoqi, to the logistics department to become leaders of the fishing team.
These two guys were not happy at first. They felt that fishing had little technical content and could not demonstrate their abilities.
"What a shit!"
Chai Daguan recruited these two men and said angrily: "There are no organized and combat-effective officers, soldiers, and naval forces near the water park in Liangshan Mountain, eight hundred miles away!"
"Even if the copycat troops are dispatched, the naval force is only used to transport troops and cannot land on land to charge into battle. What is there to be proud of?"
"That's better than fishing, right?"
Ruan Xiaoqi said without hesitation: "The reputation of a navy leader is much better than that of a fishing leader!"
"Then how the navy trains on a daily basis and how it improves its combat effectiveness. Tell me about it, and it will open my eyes!"
Chai Daguan's eyes widened and he said angrily: "From my perspective, you navy leaders are just playing tricks. You have no idea how the regular navy is trained. As for the combat effectiveness of the navy,
You can’t always rely on water ghosts, right?”
"Then, according to what the senior official sees, how should the navy train to improve its combat effectiveness?"
Zhang Shun was also upset and asked directly: "When I was in Jiangzhou, I didn't see how powerful the imperial army and navy were!"
"Then according to you, if the navy from Jiangzhou comes over, the Liangshan navy will definitely be victorious?"
Chai Daguan said amusedly: "Is it possible?"
"this……"
Zhang Shun was honest and said directly: "If the battle takes place in Liangshan Shuibo, the navy will naturally be confident, but if it takes place in Jiangzhou, it's hard to say!"
"Senior official, I don't understand what this has to do with fishing?"
Ruan Xiaoqi couldn't help but ask: "No way, fishing can also improve the combat effectiveness of the navy, I don't believe it!"
"Who says it can't be done?"
Chai Jin said with a smile: "When fishing, is it possible to train several small fishing boats to cooperate? The key is that fishing is of great benefit to Liangshan!"
Ignoring Ruan Xiaoqi and Zhang Shun's reluctance, he continued: "I have a way to store the fish and shrimp that I brought in for a longer time. There are also other brewing methods that can preserve the fish and shrimp that I caught.
Longer!"
He smiled and said leisurely: "The most important thing is that fishing in large quantities can help the village save a lot of food!"
The reason is actually very simple. Fish is also meat and can provide fat energy.
If we just eat, a young and strong man can eat three large bowls in one meal, and those with a big appetite can even eat two kilograms!
But if there is a bowl of fresh fish soup and fish meat, a bowl of rice is enough to fill you up, and it can even sustain the consumption required for training.
It's just that fish and shrimp are not easy to preserve, and because of the squeeze from local government agencies and local gangsters, they can't make much money at all, and they may even have to pay rebates, so the fishermen around the lake have little enthusiasm.
At this time, the 800-mile Liangshan waterfront has not been heavily fished, and the fish and shrimp resources are abundant. As long as you are willing to put in effort to fish, it will not be a problem to provide meat and nutritional supplements for all the horses in Liangshan.
Regardless of whether they really wanted to or not, in the end Zhang Shun and Ruan Xiaoqi became the leaders of the fishing team under the Logistics Department.
From then on, fish was included in the diet of Liangshan heroes almost every day, and the fish flavor was present every time. Every meal made their mouths full of oil, which was so satisfying.
Mainly, the officials of Chaida came up with various dishes of pickled fresh fish and shrimp, such as braised fish, fish head with chopped pepper, fish-flavored shredded pork and other dishes, which attracted the praises of Liangshan heroes one by one.
The consumption of pigs, sheep and beef has naturally been greatly reduced.
In addition to fresh fish and shrimp, Chai Daguan also directed the kitchen cooks to produce dried fish, dried salted fish, and canned fish, which can be stored for a long time, and the utilization rate of fish and shrimp is much greater.
.
Of course, the officials of Chai Daguan did not forget what kind of place Liangshan was. They not only engaged in logistics rectification and construction, but also did not forget to train the personnel of the Logistics Department.
I have been practicing non-stop every day, and the training of standing in military positions and long-distance cross-country training has not stopped for a day.
Of course, because of the special nature of the Logistics Department, he only briefly practiced the young combat skills of the Logistics Department, and focused more on the application of various logistics agencies and tools. It is similar to the engineer branch, and it looks a bit like that.
.
Time passed quickly, and with the quiet changes in the Liangshan rear camp and logistics department, the imperial encirclement and suppression troops were about to arrive.
The imperial court was not blind, especially when the Liangshan heroes violated taboos and conquered Gaotang Prefecture. This was no different from the revolt. Coupled with the instigation of Gao Qiu and Taiwei Gao, the imperial court soon sent an army to prepare to take down Liangshan...
