Chapter 139: The New Army is formed

But it's okay to command blindly like this, if they admit it, it's better than those corrupt officials and evil officials in the fish and meat towns, who loot the people's fat and ointment. The county magistrates can do whatever they want, anyway, doing more means that the farmers spend a little more effort, and it has little to do with them.

Even if there are no benefits that the county magistrate said in the end, there will be no big disadvantages, and it is better to be obedient than to have a stiff quarrel with the county magistrate, otherwise who knows what the county magistrate will do with everyone. You must know that the county order has the power of life and death, although it is said that the people above still need to review it in name, but in most cases, it is basically the county order that has the final say, not to mention that the current county order seems to have a very good background, otherwise can you throw a lot of money?

Gu Qingzhou is not unaware of everyone's doubts, but such doubts will soon disappear with the increase in agricultural production, this is a good method that has been verified for many years, even if it changes to a different world, Gu Qingzhou is also very confident.

Of course, Gu Qingzhou is confident, but it doesn't mean that others are also confident, so now everyone just thinks that Gu Qingzhou is just an official who comes down from above, doesn't know the suffering of the people, and wants to make some merits but comes to the mess.

Not to mention Gu Qingzhou's great development in Ping'an County, Nangong Luo also obeyed the orders of the imperial brother and began to recruit troops and train new troops.

The venue for training the new army is naturally in a remote place, and it will not be in a prosperous area like Kyoto, and each city will recruit a group of people, so it didn't take much effort, and this time the new army recruited 300,000 people, which is almost half of the population of all the troops in Ziyao Country now, it seems that this time Nangong Jue is really not a small fight.

A population of 300,000 is naturally not something that can be accommodated in a small place, and if all of them are supported by the imperial court, it will bring huge pressure to the imperial court, and those ministers in the court will also obstruct it in every possible way, so Nangong Luo chose Dongli City as a place to train the army.

Dongli City is close to the frontier, so there is a lot of friction with other countries, and the conditions are difficult, naturally not many people have settled here, so there is a lot of wasteland. And this new army can also be trained in addition to training. Reclaiming wasteland and growing food not only relieved the pressure on the imperial court, but also allowed for self-sufficiency. If there is really a war in the future, there will be no panic in the heart of the food.

At this time, Zi Yaoguo was still very calm and did not fight with other countries, and the best way for civilians to become human beings was to study. But not all people have the capital to study, and not all people have the qualifications to study, so in addition to the imperial examination, there is only one way to become a soldier.

Being a soldier is not only a way to get promoted, but also a military sound, which is much better than shaving food in the land at home, even if it is likely to die as a soldier, but isn't it a peaceful time now, so there is an endless stream of people who come to join the army, except for a small number of poor people who can't survive. There are also quite a few ordinary people.

And Goudan is one of them, after being rescued by Chen Yu, Goudan learned that Chen Yu entered the palace, although he is a palace maid, but he wants to repay his kindness in the future, and it is not something that an orphan like him can do, although Chen Yu gave silver, but Goudan doesn't want to just live with food and clothing, he wants to fight for a future, and his descendants in the future. Even if they encounter natural disasters**, they have status and status, and they have more chances of surviving, unlike their families who are almost dead now. I'm left alone.

As a soldier for training, he can still endure these hardships, and he wants to flee all the way over, not to mention that he can still have food and salary as a soldier.

300,000 men and horses, including recruitment, were assembled in Dongli City in a month. The city began to be renovated. At least a barracks for 300,000 troops need to be built, and the usual training grounds also need to be built, but fortunately, the recruited troops are all good at work, so soon the layers of buildings were built in this way, and the new army can be regarded as taking root in Dongli City.

After the new army settled down, in addition to the training time every day, it was to reclaim wasteland and grow food, and in a few years, it would become a powerful military base, and it was also a military base completely controlled by the emperor.

As for those groups of harmful horses, Nangong will definitely solve them one day sooner or later.

The land around Dongli City is not too fertile, and there are no paddy fields, so the main crops are wheat, corn, sweet potatoes, etc., sweet potatoes account for most of the area, after all, it is newly opened land, and it will take a few years to become more fertile.

The establishment of the new army, in fact, many people in the court were opposed at the beginning, but the emperor insisted on going his own way, and everyone had no choice, fortunately, this army cultivated and farmed, even if there would be military salaries, it would not make the treasury have too much burden, although Ziyao Country has not had a war in recent years, but after several natural disasters, even if the treasury still has money, it cannot be used so lavishly.

Of course, the establishment of the new army has no impact on the people in the harem, everyone has just hosted a full moon banquet for the newborn little duke, although they have some understanding of the major events in the court, but the concubines in the harem will not be contaminated, and the concubines only need to serve the emperor well.

At this time, Concubine Hui sat on her seat and didn't say a word, and the people below didn't dare to speak, and the whole hall looked extremely weird. Concubine Hui took the investigation materials in her hand, although the investigation results showed that Imperial Doctor Zheng did not betray herself, but obviously she didn't tell her about everything, and she was kept in the dark about many things, and it seemed that she should let the General's Mansion train another imperial doctor and send it in.

"Mama, go and sue the family, let the family cultivate one or two imperial doctors, although Imperial Doctor Zheng did not betray, but it is obviously useless." Concubine Hui said.

"Yes, sis. So how did Imperial Doctor Zheng deal with it? Mama asked.

"Since Imperial Physician Zheng didn't betray, then it's not good for me to kill them all, let him make meritorious contributions, this time, if it weren't for him guaranteeing that Lin Xi'er was pregnant with a son, this palace would not be so passive." Concubine Hui said.

Imperial Physician Zheng didn't know that he had been closed in the ghost gate for a while, and when he received the news from the General's Mansion, he was also in a cold sweat, although he knew that he couldn't get rid of it this time, but he couldn't do it, and he didn't betray Concubine Hui, but he just concealed some things.

It seems that Concubine Hui no longer trusts herself, she can have today is not relying on the General's Mansion, and the General's Mansion will definitely not support her as much as in the past, it seems that unless she excludes the pimple in Concubine Hui's heart, it will be difficult in the future.
