Chapter 290 Military Camp and School (Please vote and subscribe)
The recruitment of soldiers came to an end, and the Han tribe also entered normal work. Luo Chong once again gave orders to the tribesmen, and the original team of the tribe was formed into a team of 100 people, pulling food and tools to rush to the original station of the tribe to plant this year's ramie grass.
Dashu also took people to Babaoshan to mine copper again. As for the mining of iron ore, Luo Chong did not let anyone go now. Since 155 people were drawn to form an army, the Han tribe really couldn't afford so many people at present. Besides, the current iron consumption of the Han tribe was not large, so there was no need to be so anxious.
In addition to these, Luo Chong also sent a caravan again, this time with 40 people, led by You Fu and Ling Feng as the deputy leader. All members had two horses each, as well as eight ox carts loaded with goods and 30 sheepdogs, and went to the grassland to trade again.
The content of this transaction is to purchase as many animal skins and horns as possible, which are military supplies. In addition, there are cattle and horses to provide animal power. The sheep are not needed this time. Not only can they not work, but the consumption of grass is enough for Luo Chong. This is not a grassland. There are only so many edible plants. If there are conditions to raise ten sheep, it is better to raise two more horses. Besides, sheep are also fast-breeding animals, so there is no need to buy so many.
But then again, sheep can be abandoned, but wool is still needed. Luo Chong asked them to bring eight vehicles this time for this purpose, to collect more wool. That thing takes up a lot of space, and if there are not enough vehicles, they can't bring back much.
You Fu is also a guy who can't stay still. Hearing Luo Chong's order, he happily led the team to set off. But this time there is a special situation, that is, Luo Chong left his younger brother You Ye behind. With such a large amount of supplies, who knows if You Fu has any ideas, which also means a little bit of precaution.
But I don't know if it will be useful. Anyway, You Fu's women and children are still in the tribe. Can he really not come back? If he really wants to do this, I'm afraid it will be useless to keep his brother.
But Luo Chong naturally couldn't say that. The reason he gave was to keep You Ye and let You Ye lead another team to set up a market in the new city area of Hedong. In fact, this is also Luo Chong's real purpose. Compared with this, hostages can only be regarded as incidental purposes.
The two brothers heard what Luo Chong said, and they didn't doubt him. On the contrary, they both looked very happy, especially You Ye. He has followed his eldest brother for so many years, and now he finally has to lead a team. After hearing this arrangement, this guy began to run around in a hurry to see the progress of the goods in various workshops.
The slaves of the Han tribe are still continuing to build. It is expected that the construction project of the entire Hanyang City will be completed in another year, but they will be transferred to the new city at that time, so there is no need to worry that they will have no work to do.
After arranging the work of the teams going out, Luo Chong plunged into military construction again. What the army of the Han tribe will look like in the future depends on how he lays the foundation now. Luo Chong was a soldier in his previous life and still missed the military life. If he hadn't been in charge of the entire Han tribe, he would really like to dive into the barracks to relive the feeling of the past.
When it comes to military construction, the first thing is independence, which must be distinguished from ordinary people. Since they are soldiers, it is naturally impossible to continue living at home. It is impossible to go back to the warm bed with wives and children every day. This is too casual.
So the first order Luo Chong issued was to move. There was nothing to move, but these soldiers could no longer go home casually. Luo Chong allocated a newly built warehouse for them to use as a barracks. From now on, these soldiers will live together in this large warehouse.
The empty warehouse was covered with a layer of blue brick floor. Luo Chong also asked the carpentry team to start making furniture such as bunk beds. Four wooden pillars as thick as arms were used as bed legs, two layers of beams were inserted, and then wooden boards were laid. It was not very difficult to make them. In addition, several long tables were built, one for collective meals, and the second for study.
There were not many educated people in the Han tribe. There were few who could write one or two hundred words. At most, there were only twenty people. Why was this? Wasn't it because there was no time for unified study? There was too much work and too many people. Luo Chong couldn't call thousands of people to take classes together. That would be unrealistic.
But now is a good opportunity. There are 155 soldiers, not more or less, and there is no work to do. It is completely no problem to form a slightly larger class to study together. This is a good teaching pilot unit.
Besides, it is impossible for these soldiers to attend classes all the time. Most of the time they spend in training is spent in a day. Luo Chong can also take advantage of this time to organize a group of students to come here to study and train some teachers for the future school. It is impossible for Luo Chong to teach so many children in the school in the future. He does not have the time and energy.
At most, he can bring a group of teachers out, and then write some teaching materials by himself. When he is free, he can give lectures to these teachers. That's all he can do. Once
you have a goal, you must take action. In the second month of spring, Luo Chong led these soldiers to do simple queue training and physical training, and proposed various regulations to regulate them so that they look like soldiers.
In the morning, you must get up when you hear the drum, and then run exercises. Every morning, you run four laps around Hanyang City. After coming back, you cook, tidy up your house, eat breakfast, and then practice queues and get familiar with the equipment. In the afternoon, you start doing various physical training, and then learn various regulations.
On the other hand, Luo Chong is also urging the carpentry group and the kiln group to make teaching tools, tables and stools, blackboards painted with wood, chalk made of lime, and hundreds of small blackboards.
The big blackboard is used for teaching, and the small blackboard is for students. After all, learning to write cannot be learned by just looking at it. They still have to practice on their own. However, papermaking is too troublesome and the current conditions are not enough. The effect of practicing writing with a sand table is not good. Blackboards and chalks are much better. Black backgrounds and white characters are clear and distinct. After writing, they can be erased and reused. Only some lime is consumed.
The production of chalk is not complicated. It is to add quicklime to water and mature it, then mix it into a paste, and then use a mold to press it into thin strips, and finally dry it. It is a pure physical change, simple to make, and easy to mass produce.
In this way, until the beginning of March in spring, the construction of the military camp and classrooms finally took shape. The large warehouse was divided into two in the middle. One half was a living area with beds, and the other half was decorated as a large classroom. There were large blackboards around it, with some slogans and other things written on them, and a lot of military disciplines were written on them, so that soldiers could learn while recognizing words.
