Chapter 429 The fugitive of Juehua Island

Chapter 429 The Fugitive from Juehua Island

Regarding sanitation and disinfection, there is one thing that must be improved immediately, that is, the treatment of feces. In the past, the feces in towns such as Fushancheng were poured directly into the stinky ditch, and when it rained, they were washed away by rain. If there was no rain, the feces would accumulate in large quantities, breeding a large number of flies and bacteria. In towns with better conditions, the feces were collected and then pulled into the wild to pour out. No matter which one it was, it was difficult to eliminate the pollution caused by feces.

Zhang Zhun decided to vigorously promote the use of farm fertilizers and digest these feces as much as possible. At the same time, anyone is prohibited from pouring feces into any place in the city, whether in the streets or in stinky ditches. When the people have not formed spontaneous habits, they can only be enforced.

Finally, it is about training doctors.

This problem is very serious, and Zhang Zhun decided to find time to have a good talk with doctors such as Xiao Fengru. At that time, doctors and doctors were basically transferred from father to son, son to grandson, and even daughters were not passed on. As for the need to learn from masters, the requirements were very strict. It can be seen that every doctor was very stingy about his own medical skills and would not easily teach them to others.

But Zhang Zhun meant that he was preparing to open a medical school to teach medical skills publicly. In the shortest possible time, he would train a large number of doctors. Even if possible, he would include medical skills in the education of private schools. Anyone who is interested in medical skills can attend.

It can be imagined that Zhang Zhun's decision will definitely cause many doctors to worry. What they are most worried about is that they teach their disciples and starve their masters to death. To change their concepts, Zhang Zhun really needs to spend some effort. Fortunately, Zhang Zhun learned from Ning Lingwei that the teachers in Shuiyue Temple are so compassionate and are still willing to teach medical skills publicly.

However, the question arises again. Chinese medical skills are unfathomable, and there are many different kinds of medical skills. Which medical skills should be taught publicly, and which medical skills are not suitable for public teaching are very testable! At the same time, what kind of medical skills are needed to meet the needs of Zhang Zhun? You can't teach all the medical skills all over the place, right? Then it has to be taught until the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month?

In addition, the process of training medical skills must also be redesigned. In the past, I studied medicine for a lifetime, and whether I was studying medicine with my father or my master, I always learned it. This process has been at least ten years. Now, Zhang Zhun has to train a group of people who understand medical skills in three to five years, which is really a demanding one.

"Tell me in person!"

Zhang Zhun frowned and decided that it would be better to talk about this issue in person.

The official documents sent by the Logistics Department were mainly about the establishment of logistics and logistics teams. In the past, Zhang Zhun's troops basically fought in Lingshan Guards and Aoshan Guards, so there was no need to consider logistics transportation issues. Occasionally, they went to sea to fight, and logistics transportation also had fleets to solve them. But now it is different. With the expansion of Zhang Zhun's control territory area, a professional logistics team must be established.

The transportation tools currently used by the Logistics Department are mainly wheelbarrows. For general wheelbarrows, the weight of transportation is about two stones (about 370 kilograms). According to Zhang Zhun's suggestion, the Logistics Department has improved the wheelbarrows and can take more complex roads. However, it is obvious that the wheelbarrows are not suitable for the growing combat needs.

For example, this cavalry battle was about 200 miles from Qingzhou City to the battlefield. If it was a wheelbarrow, it would take two days to go. A wheelbarrow transports two stone supplies, which can only support ten cavalry for about five days. A thousand cavalry and five days supplies require at least one hundred wheelbarrows to be transported back and forth.

One hundred wheelbarrows don't seem to be a lot. Because the combat troops it is responsible for supporting only one thousand people. If the combat troops increase to ten thousand, one thousand wheelbarrows will be required. In addition, transportation is dangerous. In other words, the transportation team must be equipped with guard forces. This is more complicated. Therefore, it is imperative to establish a professional transportation camp.

The Ming army had a professional transportation battalion, with an organization including 1 general and 1 central army; 30 military chariots; 254 merchandise soldiers; 1,622 chariots and artillery soldiers; a total of 1,908 people in the battalion. It is equipped with firearms: 160 vehicular machines (3 people in each door, which is actually a large-caliber musket); 640 bird guns (640 gunmen). Vehicle animal strength: 256 baggage chariots; 256 cattle were used to drive.

Miscellaneous tools: two sets of gold, drums, flags, and sounders; 96 rope piles; 256 horse-repellent guns; 256 fire soldiers and tips; 224 fire sickles; 354 ​​lanterns; 736 iron elm; 496 iron sticks; 1216 sickles; 128 axes; 128 chisels; 240 guillotines. Food and fodder: 200 shi of rice; 500 black beans; 299 shi of Qizi; 4 buckets of fried noodles; 299 shi 4 buckets of fried noodles. 500 gong pots; 256 iron pots; 500 water bags; 256 water buckets; 256 water buckets.

Such a transportation camp can carry military supplies at one time for 10,000 people to use for three days. Obviously, such a huge transportation camp cannot afford it. It must have a more scientific organization and more advanced transportation tools. However, if there is any better transportation tool, everyone must brainstorm. Zhang Zhun did not think of a better way.

Four-wheeled carriages and the like are not very suitable for the terrain of Laizhou Prefecture. Besides, Zhang Zhun doesn’t understand the process required to make four-wheeled carriages. In addition, Zhang Zhun also has no idea about bearings and rubber wheels. In fact, rubber is really a good thing. If there are rubber wheels, the transportation capacity of the wheelbarrow can be greatly improved. Unfortunately, rubber is not easy to get in large quantities in the far Southeast Asia!

Compared with land transportation, whether it is river transportation or sea transportation, the cost is much lower and the speed is much faster. Shen Lingfei's large ship can carry 3,000 stones of grain, which is equivalent to 1,500 wheelbarrows. The most common No. 3 Fu Ship has a transportation volume of more than 1,000 stones, which is equivalent to 500 wheelbarrows. It seems that in the future, the battles of the Hu Ben Army will still rely heavily on river transportation and sea transportation.

The writing effort took Zhang Zhun a lot of time, and before he knew it, it was already evening. When dinner was about to be had, Sun Weina came back. She didn't come back alone, nor did she come back with Dong Shuyan. When she came back, there were seventeen people following her. Their clothes were very ragged and looked very haggard. Many people had deep and shallow scars on their bodies. Judging from their skin color, they should undoubtedly be sailors.

Sun Weina and Dong Shuyan went around and actually brought back a group of sailors. Zhang Zhun was really curious. What were these two women doing? Did they bring back all the natives of Furong Island?

Zhang Zhun said in surprise: "Xiao Na, what are you doing?"

Sun Weina smiled and said, "I'll send you talents."

After saying that, he pointed to Zhang Zhun and said, "Bo! This is Zhang Zhun!"

The people behind her all looked at Zhang Zhun curiously, feeling a little weird, a little surprised, and a little unbelievable. Obviously, Zhang Zhun's youth, or something else, surprised them. If Sun Weina hadn't said it clearly and clearly, there was only Zhang Zhun here, they would really not believe that the young man in front of them would be Zhang Zhun who made a big fuss in Shandong.

Zhang Zhun said slowly: "I am Zhang Zhun, you are..."

A man with a burly and haggard face came up in the middle. He bowed and said calmly: "The Governor is above, and his subordinate Huang Shijun is from the Tianjin Navy. He has met the Governor."

Zhang Zhun said in surprise: "All you come from Tianjin Navy?"

Sun Weina smiled and said, "They escaped from the Tianjin Navy's prison."

It turned out that today Sun Weina and "Mr. Lin" went to Furong Island on the coast of Laizhou Prefecture to play, but accidentally encountered a sampan that was wandering over. The people on the sampan were Huang Shijun and others. They might have been wandering over from a faraway place. When they were docked, they were already very tired. Some people were dying because of the lack of fresh water. Fortunately, Mr. Lin knew some medical skills and brought clean water with them, so he rescued them. After asking, he found out that they actually escaped from the Tianjin Navy.

Sun Weina knew that Zhang Zhun's navy needed a large number of manpower, so she turned her eyes and brought these people over. On the way, she told these people about Zhang Zhun, but she did not mention Zhang Zhun's age. Huang Shijun and others were in the Tianjin Navy and knew about Zhang Zhun's things from some channels. However, they did not expect that Zhang Zhun was so young, younger than all of them.

Zhang Zhun looked at everyone and said casually: "Sit down and talk!"

Huang Shijun and others were obviously a little embarrassed, and they still stood still.

Sun Weina was ignored and said with a smile: "If you think it's inappropriate, then sit on the ground, it's okay."

Huang Shijun and others were indeed a little tired, so they all sat on the ground. Zhang Zhun immediately asked someone to bring food and water and let them have a full meal. After they were all full, Zhang Zhun asked some questions carefully. They did escape from the Tianjin Navy. As for the reason for their escape, it was very simple, that was, they didn't want to do it anywhere.

The Tianjin Navy and the Dengzhou Navy were the last two naval divisions of the Ming Dynasty. They were mainly responsible for supply in the Bohai Bay and Jinzhou direction, and occasionally supported infantry operations. There was a very familiar island name within the control of the Tianjin Navy. This island is Juhua Island. Juhua Island is today's Juhua Island. Because it was related to the Ningyuan War, Juhua Island was once very mysterious. Some of the warships of the Tianjin Navy were stationed on this Juhua Island.

Zhang Zhun said slowly: "All you are stationed on Juehua Island?"

Huang Shijun said obscenely: "Yes."

Zhang Zhun nodded in contemplation.

Like the Dengzhou Navy, the situation of the navy deducting food and pay was very serious. Some people even secretly sent the grain to Liaodong, cheated and sold some of the grain to others to make huge profits, and then mixed wood bran into the grain and gave it to the Ming army in Liaodong. Some were too lazy to mix wood bran and directly mixed sand into it.

Huang Shijun, who was the leader of this group of people, was the chief of the navy. He just couldn't stand other people's behavior and exposed it in anger. As a result, not only did those people not be punished, but his superiors gave him a charge of bewitching the morale of the army and slandering the public. Soon, Huang Shijun was imprisoned and imprisoned in the water prison.

Huang Shijun was actually from Jiangnan. Most of his ancestors were killed by Japanese pirates. For this reason, Huang Shijun specially joined the navy team and looked forward to the day when he eliminated the Japanese pirates again. Therefore, in the Tianjin Navy, he worked diligently and conscientiously, doing things like an old ox, and finally accumulated military achievements and became the general leader. Unexpectedly, he did not wait until the moment of eliminating Japanese pirates, but instead became a false criminal.

"How did you escape?"

Zhang Zhun asked curiously.

Huang Shijun said obscenely: "It was Wang Chenglin and Ling Si Shao who took them to rescue their subordinates."

It turned out that after Huang Shijun was imprisoned, he had two loyal subordinates, one named Wang Chenglin and the other named Ling Si Shao, who actively organized manpower and material resources to rob the prison and rob Huang Shijun. Because Huang Shijun is usually popular, there are still many people willing to help. In the end, their group successfully opened the water prison and rescued Huang Shijun.

At that time, Huang Shijun was unwilling to leave the water prison. He was so disappointed with the Tianjin Navy. He was willing to die in it, nor was he willing to come out. He was completely disappointed with this country, the court, and the Tianjin Navy. His ideal of destroying Japanese pirates was simply impossible to realize, and there was no meaning to survive. In the end, Wang Chenglin picked up a wooden stick, beat him unconscious, and then carried it out of the water prison.

After the prison robbery, they obviously could not stay on Juehua Island. When they returned to Tianjin, they were even more worried about death. There was no way, so they had to run to Shandong. Since they were all proficient in water and had some preparations in the early stage, they successfully arrived at the ground in Shandong with a small sampan.

After listening to their story, Zhang Zhun did not speak immediately.

The navy really needs people. The arrival of these people just makes up for the manpower gap in the navy. However, they are from the Tianjin Navy. How to say it? Zhang Zhun did not trust them, but wanted to make them feel that joining the Hu Ben Navy was not easy, and they should cherish it well. Otherwise, if they escape, you will immediately give them a good position and good treatment, which will be difficult to manage in the future. Well, this idea is indeed a bit unkind. However, for the sake of future plans, it is necessary.

Zhang Zhun pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Huang Shijun, Wang Chenglin, and Ling Si Shao."

The three of them hurriedly stood up, and the others also stood up.

Zhang Zhun said slowly: "Since you are all heroes of the navy, I want to test you."

Huang Shijun said calmly: "I don't know how sir, how should we assess us?"
