Chapter 23 Rearmament
After the five good doctors came, the Hanbu village had another scenery. Yang Yingqi asked Liu Cong to help hire 25 literate medicine children from all over Daliao, and not only called these five famous doctors to give them instructions, but also asked them to teach them medical skills -- the most urgent thing was surgical treatment. And let them recommend good doctors that they knew, and write them down one by one, for the future.
The edict of the envoy of the festival did not come down until June, and at this time the monk had no interest in the appointment. He summoned Zhi Yan Chong to ask if he knew the situation of the Liao army, and Zhi Yan Chong said: "We fought with the palace tent army of the Liao State, and our people were not as elite as they are now, but one can already beat the three of them!" ”
Ah Gu said: "What now? ”
Orihiko rushed: "Now one of us can beat five of them, and ten of us can beat a hundred of them!" I, one hundred and sixty men, can crush their two thousand troops! ”
Ah Guda was overjoyed and said: "The elite of the Han Department is on par with the Jurchen warriors, I raise my arms and shout, there can be thousands of Jurchen warriors!" ”
Zhi Yan said: "But what I have come into contact with is only a small number of Khitan soldiers, and it is difficult to say whether other palace tent troops and tribal armies are like this." Know yourself and know your opponent, and then you can survive a hundred battles. ”
Ah Gu nodded and said, "Not bad! "At the moment, he sent his henchman Xi Gu Nai to wait until the Liao State to ask for Ah Shu.
Ah Shu is a member of the Jurchen Star Xianshui Shilie Division, and his father has been submissive to Ah Guta's grandfather many years ago, and the two families have a deep friendship, but after Ah Shu's power gradually became stronger, he had the ambition to stand on his own, which became the biggest obstacle to the unification of the Jurchen tribes of the Wanyan Division. After Ah Shu was defeated by Yingge, the head of the Wanyan Department at that time and Ah Guta's uncle Yingge, he went into exile in the Liao State, and all the property of the clan returned to Wanyan. Wanyan has always asked the Liao State to return Ah Shu, but the Liao State has always refused. From then on, as soon as Wanyan encountered something that needed an excuse, he sent someone to Liao to ask for Ah Shu, a "traitor".
Xi Gu Nai and the others were extremely flexible, and they couldn't meet the Liao Lord, because the Liao Lord was taking a summer vacation in Sanshuiyuan at that time. Before the Liao bureaucrats replied to them formulaically, Xi Gunai and others had already seen enough of the situation in all aspects of the Liao State. And the Khitans didn't even notice anything wrong.
After Xi Gu Nai and the others came back, he said: "The Khitan people are in disarray, and they are no different from the horses. "The Jurchens didn't have the title of a horse at that time, but the people of the Han Department liked to call Princess Yanhu after they finished inquiring, and after the Jurchens inquired, they all called Zhiyan Chong a horse.
Zhi Yanchong said: "Ying Qi often had contacts with merchants from all over the Khitan, and learned that the Bohai people and Han people were deeply oppressed by the Liao government. The Mongols, Divination and other tribes in the west rebelled and surrendered from time to time. Although the Liao State is large, it is actually a foreign powerhouse and a middle cadre. ”
The Jurchen Xiangsa changed his words: "The lord of Liao is arrogant and lazy, and there are all grievances in the rivers and mountains of thousands of miles. ”
Ah Guda immediately said: "Okay! Then do it! Go back, subordinate subordinates, repair weapons, build a walled city, guard the intersections of each road, and wait for my order! ”
Zhiyan rushed back to Hanbu Village, and Yang Yingqi sighed after hearing about it: "It's finally here." ”
Recently, Han Village has become more and more prosperous, with a permanent population of more than 600 and a floating population of 1,200 per day, faintly becoming a market.
Many of the new recruits were fugitive slaves from the Liao State, and as long as they knew Chinese, Yang Yingqi took them in and arranged for them to work, and dozens of them had already been trained as sappers. As for the fugitive slaves from the Jurchen tribes, Yang Yingqi advised them to go back so as not to have conflicts with the Jurchens. Some of the able-bodied and nimble-minded ones paid to redeem them.
While the population of the Ministry of Civil Affairs has increased greatly, the number of soldiers has remained at 160. Xiao Tienu has always asked to expand the ranks of the military department, but Zhi Yanchong did not agree, but only further strengthened the training of the military department, not only to let them learn to fight, but also to learn to lead soldiers. In the past six months, more than a dozen relatively stupid and dull people have been withdrawn to Yang Yingqi and replaced with some new good soldiers. This replacement gave others a great shock, and everyone worked hard and did not dare to slack off.
Yang Yingqi presented a sketch of how to renovate the walled city of Huining. Ah Gu was overjoyed after seeing it, and immediately ordered the construction to begin.
Yang Yingqi also mobilized his people to erect a total of eight village blanks around Han Village. Seeing that there were sixteen villages in his sketch**, and there was also one between Hancun and Huining, Zongxiong asked, "Didn't you block the gate of Huining by choosing the place here?" ”
Yang Yingqi said: "This village was built last. The first step in my plan was to make Hanchon a sub-city of Hoeryeong, which could become a horn in wartime and help each other. In the future, Hancun can be connected with Hoeryeong and become a new big city! The Han Department and the Jurchen Rong are one, isn't it exactly the original wish of the lord of the country? ”
When the Jurchen minister heard about this, he said: "This is a good policy. The current scale of Huining is not enough to be called the capital of a country. ”
After Cao Guangbi heard about it, he asked Yang Yingqi: "Do you really want to live with the Jurchens?" There are only a few hundred of us, and we are surrounded by Jurchens, and after living for a decade or two, no one remembers that we are Han Chinese. ”
Yang Yingqi said: "One or twenty years, where will we live here for so long!" ”
Cao Guangbi said curiously in his heart: "If you don't have the plan to live for a long time, what are you doing with such a big show?" ”
Yang Yingqi said: "The Jurchens' skills in building cities are far inferior to ours. We have built this foundation, and it is a strange commodity to live in! The more valuable it is, the more valuable it will be in the future. ”
Cao Guangbi said: "What do you want to change?" ”
Yang Yingqi said: "It seems too early to say this now. There are so many variables, and I just have a vague direction. ”
No matter how sluggish the Liao people are, they are still aware of such a large-scale armed operation after all. The Liao ** General Division sent someone to ask the Jurchens who they were trying to guard against when repairing the city, and Ah Gu said lightly after inquiring: "We are just setting up a risk to defend ourselves, why should we ask about these things?" ”
The Liao State sent Ah Xibao to ask, and Ah Guda said angrily when he saw it: "The Jurchen is a small country, and the Khitan is a big country, and we are willing to abide by the attitude that a small country should have towards a big country." But you have shielded us with traitors, which has made our people resentful. If the Khitan can return the traitor Ashu to us, then we are willing to pay tribute to the Khitan. If not, hey! ”
Hearing his words, Ah Xibao no longer regarded himself as a temperance envoy, and said: "Do you know the consequences of betraying Da Liao? ”
Ah Guda sneered: "If Da Liao presses the realm with troops, then we can only fight to the end, and we will never be killed!" ”
The detailed work sent by Yang Yingqi inquired about the reaction of the Liao people, and learned that the Liao army only began to prepare after Ah Xibao returned, and the Liao lord seemed to not take this "little matter" to heart at all.
Yang Yingqi said in his heart: "I am not familiar with history in my dreams, unlike other genius travelers, who can remember the resumes of each outstanding person, as well as what happened every year or even every month, but can only remember a rough idea." However, judging from the current situation, the wheel of history continues to move along the original main road. It doesn't seem to take much time for the Jurchens to destroy Liao, and it seems that the time for us to go south is almost coming. ”
