The 1,000 households of the Ming Dynasty set up one for 1,000 households, two for 2,000 deputy households, 10 for 100 households, and two for the suppression.

But now, among the thousands of households guarded by Ninghua, there are only four hundred households left, and one is calm.

Among the two deputy thousand households, one led the troops to the partial head pass with Dong Liang, and then followed by the degraded side, and the other deputy thousand households was a disciple of the general who received the salary in name, and would not appear in the thousand households on weekdays, and only occasionally when the officials came to inspect the points, they would temporarily run over.

Among the ten hundred households, one was killed by Qin Chuan when he followed Han Mao to attack Mengjiazhuang, and two followed Han Mao to be demoted to the side.

When Dong Liang was assigned to Rongbian, two of them were also demoted, and there were still six hundred households, including Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan was promoted to a thousand households, and when he replaced Dong Liang, one of the hundred households who had a good relationship with Dong Liang was so frightened that they immediately fled back to their hometown in Wutai County, and the two townspeople also ran away.

As a result, the generals of the Ninghua Institute were finally left with only four hundred households and one pacification.

As for the soldiers inside...... Originally, there was not much left, and after hearing that the person surnamed Qin was going to become their thousand-household adult, many caries surnamed Qin settled accounts and took them under the knife, so they fled one after another.

Now there are only 270 soldiers left, most of whom are Tuntian soldiers, and there are many old and sick soldiers

Most of these people had suffered Qin Chuan's losses in Lou Fu Mengjiazhuang, and they had received his share of grain not long ago, and they were afraid and looking forward to this new Qianhu Lord, waiting for him to bring food to take office.

The four hundred households were anxious and uneasy, and their days were like years.

They didn't know if the Qianhu Qin Lord, who threatened to bleed a river of blood, would use them to open the knife.

After all, those four hundred households have all been to Dong Liang.

Only the one named Mo Dezai was barely calm.

This morning, Mo Dezai followed the four hundred households to lead the remaining more than 200 old, weak, sick and disabled, and waited outside the gate of the thousand households early.

They had already received the news yesterday that Lord Qin had come to take office.

After waiting for a long time, it was not until the sun was rising that I finally saw a flag appear in the field of vision.

The flag has the word "Qin" written on it, and the general is a general wearing a cyan painted bear complement clothes.

Behind the general, there were about 300 soldiers and horses with swords and guns, and about 100 of them were all dressed in red armor and red cloaks.

As soon as he saw this person, Mo Dezai hurriedly followed the four hundred households and greeted him.

"See Lord Qin below."

In the distance, Mo Dezai and the others knelt down on one knee and clasped their fists in salute.

More than 200 old, weak, sick and disabled people behind them also knelt down in unison.

Qin Chuan didn't respond, he just looked around expressionlessly, and then asked lightly, "Why are you guys?" ”

Mo Dezai and a few hundred households couldn't answer, they only lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to come out.

Qin Chuan frowned: "I'm not asking where those soldiers went, but asking where the generals went." ”

Mo Dezai and several hundred households looked at each other, and still no one dared to speak.

"Humph!" Qin Chuan was a little annoyed, "Bring the roster and perform martial arts." ”

With that, Qin Chuan didn't bother to pay attention to them anymore, and rode straight into the Ninghua Institute.

One hundred red-clothed attendants and two hundred first boarders also rushed into the camp, and when they passed by the group of old, weak, sick and disabled, they did not squint, as if there was no one else.

It didn't take long for Qin Chuan Dama Jindao to sit on the podium of the martial arts arena, with Luo Da Niu standing next to him, and the red-clothed attendants with red cloaks behind him.

"My lord, this is the roster of this thousand households, please take a look."

Mo Dezai bent his waist and presented a booklet to Qin Chuan with both hands with a smiling face.

Qin Chuan took the roster and didn't rush to look at it, but asked lightly, "Your name is Mo Dezai, right?" ”

"Go back to my lord, it's Mo De who marked it."

"It's a good name, no disaster and no disease is a blessing."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"I listen, you usually like to play some clever things, and do some opportunistic and flattering things to your superiors?"

Mo Deya didn't know what he wanted to do, so he fell to his knees with a puff.

Qin Chuan said lightly: "In the future, play less scheming, follow me to do things in a down-to-earth manner, and I can also protect you from disasters and avoid evil." ”

Mo Dezai reacted very quickly, and immediately lay down and kowtowed, and kept shouting: "Thank you, my lord, I will do my best to mark it, and then die." ”

"Get up, and count according to the roster."

Qin Chuan handed the roster back to him.

Mo Dezai took the roster, and after kowtowing again, he stood up and read the name according to the roster.

Qin Chuan was not interested in the situation of ordinary soldiers fleeing, and he didn't think about how much these Ming troops could help him anyway.

He cares about the generals.

Mo Dezai quickly finished counting the roster, and then handed the roster to Qin Chuan nervously.

Qin Chuan took it, rolled it roughly, then stood up and shouted loudly to the more than two hundred old and weak people below: "As of noon tomorrow, all those who are not present will be treated as deserters, including the deputy thousand households, as well as the two hundred households and the town magistrate. ”

After that, Qin Chuan said to Mo De, "Follow me to inspect everywhere", and then walked off the platform.

Mo Dezai hurriedly followed.

As soon as he left, there was a buzzing sound in the martial arts arena.

This new Qianhu Lord, his style of acting is really very different from others.

The first place Qin Chuan inspected was the arsenal of the Thousand Households, although he had already guessed the appearance of the arsenal, but when Mo Dezai took him in, he still couldn't help but scold.

There were weapons in the arsenal, but they were basically rusty and rotten, and they were not weapons at all.

There were two tiger squat guns in the firearms, but looking at the appearance of the barrels, he knew that these two guns had been scrapped.

After coming out of the arsenal, Qin Chuan inspected the barracks and other buildings, and after getting the atlas of the Tuntian of the Ninghua Institute, he called Mo Deya into a courtyard for the daily living of thousands of households.

As soon as he sat down, he asked lightly: "Let's go, which of these military fields are being cultivated, and what are the wastes." ”

Mo Dezai was slightly shocked, and his face became very ugly.

"You should know my methods." Qin Chuan said lightly again.

Mo Dezai's face turned pale, and he hurriedly knelt down, and stammered: "Back to my lord, there are a total of 2,400 acres of military land in the institute, and none of them are abandoned, but they are just ...... But ......"

"But nothing."

"It's just that most of the military fields no longer belong to the Ninghua Institute."

"Belongs to whom?"

"This ......"

Mo Dezai hesitated for a moment, and finally turned his heart sideways: "Back to my lord, most of the tuntian in the institute belongs to the officials on various roads, although this atlas has not changed, the fields still belong to the official fields, but the cultivation and harvest have long been no different from private fields." ”

"Oh? Who does Juntian belong to now? ”

"Lord Hui, the Ninghua Institute originally had 2,600 acres of fertile land, part of which originally belonged to Lord Dong of Qianhu, and now it naturally belongs to you, in addition, most of the military fields are commanded by the Shanxi Metropolitan Division, Tongzhi, Commander and other generals."

"Oh? You come carefully. ”

"Yes."

Mo Dezai no longer hesitated, and whispered out the matter of Jiangtian.

It turned out that the military land of the Ninghua Institute had long been reduced to private land, and it had been occupied by the big officials in Shanxi, especially a few officials from the Shanxi Metropolitan Division.

Nominally, these fields are still military fields, and they are still in the military field atlas, but in fact, when it is time to harvest, the harvested grain is not Yuening Huasu, but is transported to Taiyuan, Yangqu, Daizhou and other places.

These generals are not good enough, and the tuntian soldiers of the Ninghua Institute still have to help them farm, and the advantage is that they can eat a full meal during the farming period.

Most of the other time, most of the officers and men in the station did not have enough to eat.

Moreover, for more than a year, the Ninghua Institute has only paid three or four percent of its salaries every time, and over the years, there have been more and more deserters, and it has soon become a common thing.

After listening to Mo Dezai's words, Qin Chuan felt that it was time for those officials to go under the knife.

The first unlucky one was the deputy Qianhu who was paid in name.

After cleaning up the thousand households, after getting off the horse, take back all the military fields, and whoever dares to jump will take whoever to open the knife, and kill him with a river of blood.
