Chapter 168 Period

After sending Wang Yongji away, Yu Xiaotian once again ordered to raise his sail to anchor and go down the mouth of the Min River. He and the fleets he left at the mouth of the Min River began to return to Weitou Bay.

After returning to Weitou Bay, Yu Xiaotian ordered the soldiers who participated in the war to take a collective leave of 20 days to return home and reunite with their families. In addition, the ashes of the soldiers who died in the north were also sent home or directly sent to the cemetery of the Yu family army for resettlement.

This depends on the opinions of their families. Those who want to bury them in their ancestral graves can be placed by themselves. Yu Xiaotian specially allocates 10 taels of burial expenses for each fallen soldiers, which is not included in the pension, but most of the soldiers and generals are out of their hometowns. The ancestral graves will definitely not be able to go back, so they can be buried collectively. The Yu family army selected the cemetery for worship.

In fact, the overall casualties of Yu's army going north this time are not very large. It is absolutely not as many as he reported to the court and the government. The total number of casualties is less than 1,000. Among them, the minor injuries have recovered and returned to the team. Less than 100 people have been seriously injured and disabled, all of schedule. A ship was sent to escort him back to Taiwan, where he was properly placed and continued to be treated. After recovering from the injury, he made proper arrangements according to his disability.

The overall number of soldiers killed in the battle is actually less than 400, which is mainly caused by the siege of Dengzhou City. The siege is no better than ordinary field battle. Even if the attacker has strong firepower, after all, it does not have a land advantage. Attack from the bottom up, the casualties will certainly not be too small.

The court stipulates that each of these fallen soldiers and soldiers are given 30 taels of silver, but the vast majority of the families of the fallen soldiers and their families can't see the silver at all. Even if they are allocated by the government, they have been stuck by people along the way. It's good to get a few taels of silver. Many people are a big Can't see.

However, Yu Xiaotian distributed 50 taels of silver to each fallen soldiers, which is real and sent directly to their families. If they are buried by themselves, they will be given another ten taels. No one in the middle dares to reach out for it. If they are caught by Yu Xiaotian, chopping hands is the lightest, and they will definitely be thrown directly to the camp. Among them, working to death may even be sentenced to late, the highest standard, and some people have enjoyed the treatment of lighting the skylight.

In addition to these cash pensions, if the soldiers and have children, their children will receive special preferential treatment and will be recruited to school. The food and clothing are all due to Xiaotian's responsibility. There are parents and the elderly. In their lifetime, Yu Xiaotian will also give subsidies of two stones of rice every year and lose the labor force. People will be given more subsidies.

Therefore, in terms of the treatment enjoyed by the generals of the Yu family army, although they dare not say the highest on paper, in fact, as long as the rules are set, they can be basically implemented without any worries, so when the Yu family soldiers fight, they will not be afraid of death.

According to their words, the Lord thought of all the things that should be thought for them. They have nothing to worry about. Even if they are dead and disabled, they still have someone to take care of their families. Therefore, on the battlefield, there was almost no desertion in the army, and their morale was quite high.

In the past, Yu Xiaotian had to ask about these trivial things in person, but now that the system has been formed, someone will handle them according to the system, so there is no need for Yu Xiaotian to worry about anything more. Just send someone to visit secretly afterwards to check the implementation of various pensions. That's it.

After he returned to Weitou Bay, he also stayed with his family for a few days, and then dealt with some of the accumulated things that needed his personal approval. This period of time was also good.

However, Zou Weiyan's life was really unsatisfactory during this period. After breaking up with Yu Xiaotian that day, Zou Weiyan fell into infinite fear, afraid that under the anger of Yu Xiaotian, he really dared to lead troops to rebel. In that case, he would be very unlucky.

As soon as Yu Xiaotian made great achievements in Denglai, he immediately rebelled. Those officials in the court, as well as the emperor, would definitely think, why Yu Xiaotian, a fierce general, tried his best to work for the court in Denglai, why did he rebel when he arrived in Fujian?

Then he inquired that he cut off other people's food and salaries, did not develop pensions for others, and even had to be arrested by Yu Xiaotian. Even if he defended Yu Xiaotian's roaring in court and was disrespectful, he ordered Yu Xiaotian to be arrested, but after all, this was also a reason for the incident, because this forced against a tiger general of the Ming Dynasty, so The court will certainly not spare him.

Now the Ming Dynasty is full of military use. Looking at these military generals, they have begun to have a posture that can't be lost. As a high-ranking official, Zou Weili of course can see that the court dares not touch them easily, but killing Wenchen is not soft.

So this time he fell out with Yu Xiaotian. In case Yu Xiaotian is forced to rebel, his head will probably say goodbye to his neck soon. He will definitely send Tiqi to Fuzhou to arrest him and send him to Beijing for questioning, and then it will be time for the head to fall to the ground.

Therefore, Zou Weiyan has been worried these days. The words that Wang Yongji caught up with Yu Xiaotian and brought back also made Zou Weili quite nervous, because this should be the ultimatum given to him by Yu Xiaotian to give him a month. If he does not solve the shortage of military wages and put the pension in place, Then it is estimated that the next step is the lightest thing.

Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty is pressing the gourd and floating everywhere. The court is financially tight, and there is often a shortage of money for officers and soldiers in various places. In addition, military generals and officials are greedy for military personnel. The days of being a soldier are very hard, and even people starving to death happen from time to time.

Therefore, under the unauthorized movement of some people, there are often a situation of riots. The military generals hold military power, and the court does not dare to move them easily. Often, after suppressing them, they will catch a few unlucky people to take the blame and kill them. This kind of thing will not be over, but the literary ministers who cause the salsa are most likely to be dismissed from office, which is serious. He may even be arrested and sent to Beijing, exiled thousands of miles, and beheaded and abandoned the city.

Even if Yu Xiaotian did not rebel this time, but secretly encouraged the officers and soldiers stationed in various places to make trouble, he still couldn't afford to carry it. Therefore, Zou Weili was afraid and quickly greeted people everywhere to raise money. Anyway, first plug the lack of money, give some pension to Yu Xiaotian, and take advantage of it first.

In the past month, Zou Weilien has been busy. As soon as she opened her eyes every day, she sent people to ask about the situation of wages in various places and the amount of treasury bank.

After a month, Zou Weili was going crazy and to toss around, which finally made up for part of the lack of pay. In addition, he raised another 50,000 taels of money and distributed it to Yu Xiaotian.

Although there is still a shortage of the numbers required by Yu Xiaotian, Zou Weiyan has also tried her best to squeeze out all the money that can be squeezed out. If she wants more, it is basically impossible.

After Yu Xiaotian got the silver, he pretended to give Zou Weili a self-criticism, which was a small apology for his disrespect to Zou Weili in the Fuzhou governor's government that day.

However, this incident also caused a huge rift between Zou Weiyan and Yu Xiaotian. The relationship between the two sides is basically in an irreparable state. Yu Xiaotian is also too lazy to see Zou Weili. Zou Weiyan also can't avoid Xiaotian. Both sides try not to find anyone, which makes Yu Xiaotian very comfortable and good. I had a Spring Festival break in Weitou Bay.

But he couldn't stop. After coming back, he took time to visit Kaohsiung and then went to Haitan Island to see the situation of the refugee quarantine camp on Haitan Island.

For more than a year, immigrants collected from the north basically have to undergo quarantine for a period of time in the newly built quarantine camp on Haitan Island before they can be assigned to various parts of Taiwan Island.

This can avoid some immigrants with infectious diseases and bring infectious diseases to Taiwan Island, causing a large-scale epidemic. Although it has become normal for Taiwan to accept immigrants, the solution to the accommodation problem has made the people in charge of this matter suffer.

With the arrival of a large number of immigrants, these people must at least have a place to live. Even if they are settled in a collective farm, they must have at least a dormitory.

At first, they built small houses for vacation single families, but such houses could only accommodate a small number of people and could not cope with the relocation of a large number of immigrants.

Later, Yu Xiaotian ordered the construction of large-scale houses similar to the barracks structure, which could save a lot of manpower and material resources and resettle a large number of immigrants.

For these dormitory-like barracks structure, each room is built into a square rectangular house, with ten rooms. Each dormitory can accommodate five upper and lower bunks and accommodate ten people. 100 people can be accommodated in a row of rooms. At the end of each row of houses, there is also a public toilet to arrange special personnel to manage. There is also a bathroom for these people to wash.

Although this affects the normal life of some families, this method can only be used temporarily in order to arrange a large number of immigrants.

However, immigrants do not have much opinions on this. Nowadays, it is a bigger thing for them to have enough food than the sky. Although the accommodation seems a little nervous, after all, there is a bed for them to sleep, and ** there are straw mats and straw mats. Everyone also gives them a piece of cotton cloth as a quilt. Fortunately, most of the winter on Taiwan Island Ji is not very cold. Although it will not be very comfortable to fall asleep, it will not freeze to death.

After all, cotton is too tight now and can only be used by the army first. Ordinary immigrants have to work on themselves if they want to cover the quilt.

These new immigrants basically signed a deed of sale, so they have no personal freedom and have to accept unified management. Each dormitory has appointed a head to manage the dormitory personnel and health discipline.

These immigrants usually adopt semi-military management and have formulated a rather strict work and rest system and health system. When these new immigrants were at home, few people had any health awareness. Many people did not take a bath for a long time, pooped and urinated, and defecated everywhere.

But Fortunately, before they came to the collective farm on Taiwan Island, when they were at the reception station in Shandong and the quarantine camp on Haitan Island, these bad habits had been corrected. After arriving here, no one dared to defecate everywhere and knew that they had to go to the public toilet to deal with the problem.

This also provides a good raw material for fertilizer accumulation. Collective farms alone produce a considerable amount of farm fertilizer produced by these immigrants every year.

In order to reduce the occurrence of infectious diseases, although it is impossible for these houses to be extravagant to install glass, the sea wolf still purchased a lot of roving on land, nailed it to the windows, and hung bamboo curtains on the dormitory door to prevent mosquitoes from entering the room. Although the effect is average, after immigrating back to the house, In the house, some wormwood or wormwood will be ordered to repel mosquitoes. In addition, the health management of the collective farm is relatively good. In recent years, there has been no large-scale malaria transmission.
