Although he was psychologically prepared for the quality of the garrison, Jiang Anyi couldn't help frowning when he saw the first batch of garrison soldiers in the barracks.

The 3,000 soldiers stood crookedly in front of them, their clothes ragged, most of them wearing tattered military uniforms, and many of them wearing the clothes of ordinary people. Most of them are in their forties, and even some of them have gray beards, many of them are disabled, and there are not a few who lack arms and short legs. The early spring in Aino Castle was very cold, and these people shivered in the cold wind with their guns, and their faces showed hunger and cold.

Jiang Anyi couldn't bear it in his heart, and said to Guan Pingzhong beside him: "General Guan, there are extra winter clothes in the treasury, give them them, let them rest well these days, let them eat and dress warmly, otherwise many people will not be able to go to Hecheng County." How much food will be spent, you will go to the government office to settle it later. ”

Guan Pingzhong himself was a member of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and knew that the garrison soldiers belonged to the lowest level in the army, and the generals beat and scolded them, and their colleagues bullied them, doing hard work, and they were looked down upon by others. Most of the soldiers are old, weak, sick and disabled, or they are thorns in the army who have been excluded, and no one wants to be a cantonment soldier.

"Adults are kind-hearted, and they obey orders." Guan Pingzhong disagreed, in his opinion, these soldiers were a disgrace to the army, but he spent money and food to help them, and he was happy to be a good person.

Seeing that many people were shivering coldly, Jiang Anyi was not in the mood to inspect any further, so he waved them back to the camp and asked the generals and lieutenants who led the team to follow him to the big tent for questioning.

After the court approved the implementation of the military tun in Huazhou, the Ministry of Industry issued the detailed rules for the military tun in Huazhou, which has been in the past dynasties and is under the jurisdiction of the Tuntian Division of the Ministry of Industry. The detailed rules are clear: each person is divided into 50 acres of land, there are 200 people per 100 hectares of land, and there is one tun chief, and the official rank is from the nine grades to accompany Rong Lieutenant, two deputy tun chiefs, and two deputy lieutenants; There is one company commander for every five tuns (1,000 people), the official rank is the ninth rank of the Renyong lieutenant, and the two deputy company commanders are the deputy lieutenants of Renyong; Every third company is a tun regiment, with one tun regiment commander, the official rank is eight grades on the Xuanjie lieutenant, and the deputy regiment commander is two deputy lieutenants of Xuanjie. Every third regiment is a tun army, and the army commander is the captain of Zhiguo on the seventh grade (the official rank of the tun army is lower than the second rank of the regular army). The number of troops sent by the court was set at about 50,000, equipped with five tun commanders, each of the four capital protectors had a tun commander, and a quota was given to the Huazhou garrison, and the tun army commander was under the command of Sima Hua Sicheng of Huazhou.

Juntun also involves civil affairs, seeds, animal power, equipment, husband service, drawing, storage and transportation, coordination with local disputes and other matters must be specially managed, the Ministry of Officials in Huazhou specially set up the Huazhou Juntun Ya, the Juntun Ya is under the management of the driver, equipped with a Tuntian order, the official rank is the seventh grade, the deputy order is two, the official rank on the eighth grade, the secretary judges four people, the official rank under the ninth grade, who is allowed to recruit 50 officials, priority from the selection of the cantonment soldiers.

Both the military and civilian sides of the military tun are under the jurisdiction of the Huazhou government, and in the name of the Huazhou Juntun Ya, they are handed over to the Tuntian Division of the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court. The Tuntian Division happened to be in charge of Ning Ze, the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, and Ning Shilang took more care of the affairs of his hometown, and the money and grain were allocated according to the best.

The court chose the Taicang Department of Sinong Temple to order Lin Qing to serve as the Tuntian Order, Lin Qing visited Ning Ze first, and promised to take care of Ning Ze's son Ning Qingzheng, who had become the deputy commander of Tuntian in advance.

The 3,000 soldiers were exactly the number of a regiment, and the leader of the regiment was Feng Dingzhong, the Xuanjie captain of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, who was about forty years old, with a beard on his face and vicissitudes written on his face. When he led several subordinates to salute Jiang Anyi, Guan Pingzhong, and Hua Sicheng, Jiang Anyi noticed that his right hand was extremely difficult to raise, and it seemed that he had been injured. Looking at those deputy tun regiment commanders and tun company commanders, most of them have inconvenient hands and legs, and they should have been injured and can no longer go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

These people have shed blood for their country and should not be spared. Jiang Anyi stood up and returned the salute, Guan Pingzhong next to him sat with a golden knife, quite puzzled by Jiang Anyi's actions, Hua Sicheng was often by Jiang Anyi's side, and he had some understanding of his intentions, so he also got up and saluted.

"Sit down with the generals." Jiang Anyi commanded.

Feng Dingzhong and the others were a little surprised, they didn't expect Lord Assassin Shi to be so polite, and muttered in their hearts whether the Assassin Shi was trying to win over his own people, so that he could obey orders when he managed the troops. Feng Dingzhong didn't even dare to say it, and said humbly: "In front of General Guan and adults, there are seats for the last general and others, and the last general will not dare." ”

"You have shed blood for the country on the battlefield and protected the safety of the people, and you deserve the respect of everyone in Dazheng. Respect you,

It is to respect the thousands of soldiers who killed the enemy for the country, in front of the Son of Heaven, you can also sit generously, why don't you dare. ”

Jiang Anyi's words made Feng Dingzhong and the others feel hot, and some people couldn't help but shed tears. Guan Pingzhong was greatly moved, although he was a loyal general of the fourth rank and had stepped into the ranks of middle-level generals, but he was also a soldier, and he could understand the pain of being disabled, so he immediately stood up and commanded loudly: "Don't give a few generals a seat yet." ”

Feng Dingzhong was originally Zhu Zipu's favorite general, and his right hand injured his muscles and bones and was arranged to serve as a lieutenant in the baggage camp. Feng Dingzhong was not convinced, and once made trouble with Yang Xiangliang, Yang Xiangliang scolded his son a few words, and the matter was over. offended Yang Huaiwu, Feng Dingzhong's life became more and more sad, three days and two ends, this time the court sent people to Huazhou Tuntian, Feng Dingzhong simply volunteered to come to Tuntian. Most of the people around him were in the same situation as him.

Waiting for Feng Dingzhong and the others to sit down, Jiang Anyi asked a few words about the situation on the road. The Anxi Protectorate sent troops to be in charge of the young marshal Yang Huaiwu, who originally prepared five thousand taels of silver and became two thousand taels, and there were no clothes, carriages and horses, all the way north, lack of clothing and food, dozens of people had died on the road, and finally arrived at Huiye Mansion, and the troops were exhausted, and if they wanted to go to Hecheng County, there were many people who could not bear it.

Jiang Anyi comforted: "Everyone, stay and recuperate with peace of mind, and then go to Hecheng when the weather warms up." The infirm live longer, and the able-bodied may wish to go first, Hecheng County has prepared a place to live, good seeds, livestock, etc., and the fields are also ripe fields that have been cultivated before, so it should not miss the agricultural time. Someone will come tomorrow to talk to you about the specific matters. ”

After a few words of gossip, I heard that someone in the Tun army was sick, Jiang Anyi entrusted Guan Pingzhong to send a military doctor to see a doctor, and Feng Dingzhong and others left with a thousand thanks. Soon, Jiang Jianshi respected the soldiers very much, and did not treat them as coolies, and the news that the supplies were well prepared spread, coupled with the fact that the military doctor came to see the sick, all of which made the soldiers feel relieved, and they repaired in the barracks with peace of mind and waited for the weather to warm up and go to the tuntian.

Three days later, Feng Dingzhong took 1,800 people, accompanied by Fang Beijia and Hua Sima, to Hecheng County. The military tun yamen was set up in Hecheng County, and Tuntian Ling Lin Qing, deputy tun commander Ning Qingzheng, and Bai Xianhe had already arrived in mid-February, just waiting for the arrival of the tun troops.

Jiang Anyi saw that the troops were hard, and the government allocated 5,000 taels of silver and 1,000 stone of grain to accompany him, Feng Dingzhong looked at the long convoy of money and grain behind him, and couldn't hide the joy in his heart, it seems that his decision to choose to come to Huazhou Tuntian is not wrong.

In March, the weather gradually warmed, and the troops marched to Huazhou one after another.

On the sixth day of the first month of March, the competition officially kicked off. The competition is divided into military competition and martial arts conference, and the venue of the military competition is located in the school field of the right Xiaowei outside the south gate, and idlers are not allowed to watch. The arena of the martial arts conference is in an empty field outside the west gate, five rings are set up, each ring has an arbitrator, the Jianghu people are pointing with great interest, the head of Zichen Gate He has never seen, the Guangming master of Mingpu Temple is common, the owner of Xu Zhuang of Fengqing Mountain Villa is good and mighty, the master of the Sun Gate of Caidie Gate is like a kind old lady, and the master of the white door of Luoyi Gate does not look like a good person......

Let the people be most interested in the martial arts conference, just pull a person on the street of Yongchang City, can describe to you vividly, what are the top ten schools of the rivers and lakes, the twenty years of martial arts, the gentleman who told the story in the teahouse is to come to the competition of the rivers and lakes to discharge the top ten masters, open a stall in the casino, bet on the winner.

Li Mingfeng and Yan'er lived in the Rugui Inn, and used the money to buy a new road guide, whose names were changed to Zhang Tiansheng and Chen Dahua, and their hometown was changed to Wuqing County, Huangzhou, to visit relatives in the capital. At lunchtime, the lobby was full of diners, nearly half of whom were martial artists, talking loudly about the lively candidates who won the championship: Jiang Jian from Liuhuamen, Zhao Zhenhua from Zichen Gate, and the Holy Maiden from Caidiemen...... The ten major sects in the rivers and lakes have all selected people to participate in the competition, plus Jiang Linsheng, who was originally famous in the rivers and lakes, Zhang Tiangang, the soul breaker, Wu Lie, and others, the people who came to participate in the competition this time are really talented.

The gossip was flying all over the sky, and there were three men at the table next to Li Mingfeng who seemed to be participating in the competition, and the fat man boasted: "...... With the name of our three heroes in the southeast, not to mention entering the top ten, squeezing into the top 50 is certain, and the time will be there

Long Wei became an official, eating fragrant and spicy food, saving himself from eating and drinking dew on the rivers and lakes. ”

The short man beside him snorted and said with a smile: "That is, the eldest brother's Liuyun palm has reached the realm, raising his hand to hurt people, even the third brother's empty leg can sweep half of the martial arts, those children of the ten major sects are just relying on the favor of the master, how can there be any masters." ”

The blue-faced man who sat sideways said in a deep voice: "Second brother, what he said is not right, I dealt with Jiang Jian, the ice hand ten years ago, this person can really let out his anger and hurt people, and the younger brother is not an opponent." I heard that he and his master were worshipping in the Li family in Jiangnan, and then disappeared, and this matter came to the competition, I am afraid that the person who came is not good, not that the younger brother said that he was discouraged, and the eldest brother should be careful when he sees him. ”

The fat man was a little weak-hearted, and said: "I have also heard of the name of the cold ice hand, but I heard that this person has an old relationship with the Li family, and was recommended to the secret guard by Li Sinong. ”

The short man nodded and said: "Yes, I also heard that the sects of Caidiemen and Zichenmen have been determined, this time Longwei and Dark Guard want to recruit a large number of people in the rivers and lakes, we are also famous people in the rivers and lakes, and we sell some strength in the competition, as long as we can enter the top 100, it is estimated that we will be favored by the two guards." ”

The green face sighed: "There is no eye in the battle, there is no limit to life and death, today is the first day of the preliminary competition, seven people were killed, more than ten people were injured, if you want to be an official, you have to fight with your life." ”

The fat man gritted his teeth and said: "I heard that those who hurt people are the Northern Desert people, these rabbit cubs want to sabotage our plan for the Northern Expedition, if I run into it, Lao Tzu will split these rabbit cubs with me." ”

The words showed a drenched blood, Yan'er stretched out her hand and grabbed Li Mingfeng's wrist, and said worriedly: "Zhang Lang, why don't we just look at the excitement and don't go to the competition, anyway, the money I bring with me is enough to spend, if you are willing, let's find a place to do some business, and when we have a child, we will go back and ask my mother for forgiveness." ”

Li Mingfeng looked at Yan'er tenderly, smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I will be careful." ”

Waiting for Yan'er to turn her eyes away, Li Mingfeng's eyes became firm, Yan'er had a deep affection for herself, and was willing to abandon the life of the eldest lady and follow herself, since she wanted her husband to have an official and a half-job in the future and return to her hometown, she was desperate to meet her wishes, as for Yuan Tianjiao and the master, she couldn't manage it so much, she just wanted to live well, and she didn't want to be entangled for a lifetime for grievances.

The road to the north of the royal court has been walked three times, Chen Yinguang rode on a horse and looked at the desert grassland, Yongchang City should be the willow sprouts, and the desert grassland is still dry and yellow, only when you look at it from a distance, you can find the faint green in the distance.

Departure on the sixteenth day of the first month, it has been more than a month, and there is still about half a month away from the royal court. Chen Yinguang remembered that the Son of Heaven summoned him alone before the temporary time, and asked him to secretly Xu Li, instigating the fight between Kunbo and Liman, and the Son of Heaven pointed out that Song Sili, the secretary of Guanglu Temple, was old, and if he could make the first contribution in the Northern Expedition, the future Guanglu Temple Qing would be his.

Chen Yinguang's heart was hot, but when he thought of the Northern Desert people who were like wolves and tigers and did not pay attention to etiquette, his heart was half cold. Last time, Wushi Khan had a sudden attack, tied up the deputy envoy Jiang Anyi, and almost took his own life, now the northern desert is in chaos, Kunbo and Liman don't look at each other, if they are biased, the other is not allowed to sacrifice their own heads. Promotion is a good thing, but compared to life, it is still important to save life, and this trip is unpredictable.

As he was moving forward with a sad face, the dust on the right side was rising, and the escort team hurriedly blocked the mission behind the horse team, Chen Yinguang hurriedly said: "Quickly raise the envoy high, and the interpreter will quickly come forward to communicate and tell them that we are the mourning mission sent by Da Zheng." ”

The interpreter urged the horse to come forward, and after a while, he turned around and reported: "Lord Chen, the team in front is the blue wolf army of Liman Khan, and Liman Khan heard that the adult came to mourn, so he specially sent the blue wolf army to greet the adult, and invited the adult to his sweat tent as a guest. ”

Chen Yinguang was stunned for a moment, it seemed that the direction of riding was not where the royal court was, and Mo Fei Liman was driven out of the royal court by Kunbo. Kun Bo gave him the impression of being like a wild wolf, he was willing to deal with the seemingly polite Li Man, not to mention that Li Man was still received by himself when he came to Yongchang to greet his relatives, and the two had a friendship.

After thinking about it, Chen Yinguang ordered: "Follow the Blue Wolf Army and go to Liman Khan." ”(https:)
