Since ancient times, the Han people have been small and rich, and since the Song and Ming dynasties, there has been a saying that they emphasize literature and light martial arts, and good men should not be soldiers.
Unlike those who were burned in their homes, so to speak, destitute and destitute, who joined the camp in order to find a way out, those who did not participate were not affected by the fire in their homes, so they were reluctant to abandon their homes to join the camp.
Even if such a person's home is also surrounded by four walls, and the whole family has eaten a meal without a meal, these people will not abandon this home, because this home can give them shelter from the wind and rain, and can give them a root.
If there is a home, there will be hope; If you have roots, you won't be a lonely ghost who dies in a foreign land.
Unless they are in a desperate situation, the Han people will not leave their hometown, let alone become any soldiers, and be the masters of the cannon fodder, so when the Zhizhou Yamen posted a notice asking the residents of the city to join the army, panic and resistance were naturally unavoidable.
In the eyes of these residents, the Taiping Camp's trickery of those victims of the disaster is completely a deception, and there can be such a good thing in this world, and their eyes are not blind, and they can see that many of the people who have poured into the city in the past two days are bitter.
If this is really a good thing, they can have a bitter face, just like the dead father and mother, and the guys who shouted to sign up a few days ago, only a few days ago, the people who were alive at the beginning, but now they are buried in the ground, and this person knows the battle that died yesterday and the ghost who fought yesterday Wu Yuanwai, Master Qi, they are famous good people, scholarly heirlooms, and they have all been the officials of the Ming Dynasty, why did this Taiping Camp copy people Is it the order of the Son of Yongli How do you look at it, this Taiping Camp acts strangely, anyway, it is not like the Ming Dynasty official army, it is not really like what some people say, these people are not the Ming army at all, they are bandits at all Besides, we ordinary people are illiterate, illiterate, can't read the big truths in the book, and can't understand the teachings of the sages, but our people are not stupid As long as we abide by the king's law and be honest, no matter which emperor did it in this world, no matter what the old man in the yamen is surnamed Ming and Qing, we can live this life.
After so many years of fighting, the officials also have someone to give them land and food, how can they give us a way to live, and now a bullshit notice tells us to join the army, doesn't this drive people to death, and don't give us a way to live?
One hundred people and one hundred hearts, in this case, the word "voluntary" on the notice of the Zhizhou Yamen is really just the word voluntary on paper, and no one is willing at all, and they are all hiding at home At first, Song Xianggong also recruited a group of small officials, and found some young people from the camp who could read a few words and could speak, most of them were guys and runners.
These people took the gongs issued by the yamen in their hands, beat them everywhere along the street, and then shouted at the top of their voices, but the shouting came and went, but to no avail.
Two hours have passed, and no one has taken the initiative to open their doors and go to Taiping Camp to sign up.
And so the violence began.
In the process of forcing those residents who refused to participate in the camp to enter the camp, some were broken in their arms, some were injured in their legs, and some were beaten with blood on their faces.
The coercion was forced, but under Zhou Shixiang's repeated warnings, the few general banners who were ordered to carry out the task still restrained their subordinates, so that no one was killed.
After an afternoon of shouting, crying, and commotion, the Taiping camp finally coerced all the residents of Luoding into the camp, thus increasing the number of young and strong people by more than 400, and the number of elderly and weak women and children by more than 1,000.
All the materials that could be used in the Taiping camp were also expropriated from the homes of the residents who were not affected by the disaster, from the iron tools used in the homes to the pots and pans, in short, everything that could be used was removed, and even the door panels were removed, which were said to be used to block the arrows of the Tartars during the march and to make beds when camping.
If there are wounded, it can also be used to carry people, and when it rains and rains and you can't find wood for burning fire, this door panel can also be used.
The number of old and weak women and children in the back camp increased to nearly 10,000, and such a large population made Song Xianggong lose half of his head overnight.
There are many people, there are many people, there are many people, there are many chaos, and it is difficult to say that there are many people, and if there are more people, it will not necessarily be powerful, and it will become more chaotic and difficult to manage.
There are no rules, there are no rules.
The essence of governing the people is the same as marching and fighting, as long as there is a charter and the responsible personnel at all levels are designated, things will not be chaotic.
As soon as the run-in period of a few days has passed, this can be on the right track.
In order to make these old and weak women and children adapt to the life of the Taiping Camp in the shortest possible time, and accept the leadership and command of the Taiping Camp, Song Xianggong spent most of the night compiling the basic management system of the rear camp.
Although this management method cites some methods from later generations, it generally follows the ideas of governing the people of this era.
Song Xianggong divided the rear battalion into 20 small battalions, each battalion had one battalion elder, five battalion managers, and ten deputy battalion managers.
The so-called battalion elder is actually equivalent to the chief flag officer of the former battalion, but the former is to govern the people, and the latter is to manage the soldiers, so there is the post of "battalion elder", rather than a general flag officer as in the army.
In short, the only condition for appointing the camp elders is that they must be unanimously approved by the old and weak women and children in the camp, and others will listen to what they say.
As for the camp management, it is to select the old and weak people who are quite convenient and have some strength, and the main task is to assist the camp elders to manage the old and weak women and children in the camp.
If the wounded soldiers who had retired from the former battalion were to be placed in the future, they would be placed in this position.
In Zhou Shixiang's view, this procedure is very likely to lead to corruption among the camp elders and camp management, but it is not the time to consider this for the time being.
The more than 1,000 old and weak women and children of the Laofengzhuang Copper Mine were divided into three battalions, and the camp elders and camp managers of each battalion were elected by themselves, and the people who voluntarily followed were also appointed by the elders of their original villages.
When the stall is bigger, the corresponding organizational structure will inevitably be expanded. oshow7 t1706231537:
