The headline on the front page of "Beijing Times": "Gan Xianggong tried the case impartially, and the Khitan people lost their lives".

Kaifeng really has a sweet sky.

In the teahouse, there are glorious deeds of Gan Qingtian everywhere, from the matter of Cao Jiaguo's uncle to the suppression of barbarians in Yongzhou, and what is the town of Quanzhou Hufan, and then to today's Liao people who are not afraid of the Liao people to make decisions for the people, and also beat the Khitan people to death in the government.

There is nothing more legendary than these things, and there is nothing more relieving to the people of Bianliang than beating the Khitans to death.

The storyteller made up the story, that is to spare no effort, Gan Qi in the book, has become an iron-faced selfless, not afraid of power model character, there are not many ancients in front, there is no one behind, today is Gan Xianggong alone.

In the story after the dinner, it reveals the people's hatred for the Liao State, and also reveals the people's hope for the rise of the country.

Even at the door of the Gan family's house, from time to time there will be a basket of eggs and a few fatty fish gifts, and the giver doesn't even leave his name.

In the Doken Academy, when it was about to open its doors again to recruit students, a mountain was surrounded by people, and in order to maintain order, the sumo wrestlers in the sumo arena were all transferred to the academy to watch the door.

But Gan Xianggong himself has already set off to Hebei, and he has taken the emperor's holy decree, if he wants to send an envoy to Liao, Gan Qi's envoy names have been sealed.

Xiongzhou City, the façade of the Great Song Dynasty, the location of the later "Xiong'an New Area". The city here is majestic, and the flag is displayed.

Not long after Xiao Hu, the envoy of the Liao State, came out of here, Gan Qi arrived in Xiongzhou.

Gan Qi had a big business in Xiongzhou, and he went to Bianliang for two or three months, and he actually accumulated more than 2,000 horses.

Any era, any society, any world. Smuggling is a thing that will always be done.

Even if the Liao State strictly forbids horses to leave the country, the horses can still be transported from the Liao State, one horse is transported, and three or five horses are transported.

If you speculate a little more, in these things, there must be the border troops at the bottom of the Liao State who participate in them and share the benefits.

Money can always make the devil grind.

The Song people would smuggle money to the Liao State, and the Liao people would also smuggle money to the Song State, and the people who started these smuggling were all Han people, and there were countless Han people in the border army of the Liao State.

As for whether the Song people would use these horses to attack the Liao State, no one took this assumption seriously, and no one would believe it, so there was no need to worry.

If the Liao State does not send the country, it is already blessed by the gods, and the Song State will come to fight the Liao State? It's a joke.

The weather is too cold, the farther north it goes, the colder it gets, that is, to a place like the border of the Liao and Song Songs, and the coldest time in winter can be more than ten degrees below zero.

Gan Qi wore a cotton jacket in his official uniform, a cotton jacket made of cotton, and the effect of keeping out the cold was several grades higher than that of other clothes.

It's just that people will look a little bloated.

The yamen of the two roads in Hebei was temporarily placed in the yamen of the Zhizhou Prefecture of Xiongzhou.

The charcoal fire was roasted, and the officials on the left and right were seated.

On the right hand, Di Qing and Xiongzhou soldiers and horses are in charge of Zhao Zi, Shi Honglei, and Zhi Kexing......

On the left-hand side, Zhang Liyi, the governor of Xiongzhou, is a judge and a magistrate in the yamen......

Gan Qi opened his mouth and asked: "Di Xianggong, how is the recent military training?" ”

"Two roads, more than 40 state capitals, a total of more than 25,000 young and strong forbidden troops. The box army also drew more than 6,000, all of which were used for logistics. "Di Qing, this can be regarded as a report.

Gan Qi scratched his head, the army of the Great Song Dynasty was mainly in two directions, one side of the Western Xia and the other side of the Liao State. Other state capitals are almost not discussed, such as Quanzhou, where there are less than 500 people in the forbidden compartment. Even the southernmost Yongzhou place where the war was fought was only a few thousand men and horses, controlling dozens of Huodong, the capital of the prefecture.

The Northern Song Dynasty forbidden army had 800,000 people at its peak, and although it has not yet reached this number, it has exceeded 670,000 people.

Among them, more than 100,000 are in Gyeonggi, 200,000 in the northwest, and 230,000 in Taiyuan Province.

However, the two roads in Hebei can only draw out 25,000 young people. This number disappointed Ganch, what percentage is this? It is only among the ten forbidden armies that only one young man can be drawn out.

This ratio is a bit scary, although this is not necessarily the exact ratio, there are many other factors that have caused Di Qing to only draw so many people.

But the thing in front of him is that Ganchi can only be used by 25,000 people. To defeat Yanyun, you have to rely on this person.

"How's the drill?" Ganchi then asked.

Di Qing replied: "As long as there is no shortage of food and salary, and more than a thousand Western troops are brought over, it is not difficult. The difficulty lies in the armament, and the old man is really helpless about this. ”

This sentence is on the point, if you really want to talk about training the army, it is not difficult for Di Qing, he has done this all his life, not only drilling, but even Di Qing is extremely good at doing the ideological construction of the army. For example, he himself wore a copper mask and personally rushed into battle to kill, which is also a kind of military ideological construction.

But drill is drill after all, and armament is also an extremely important point, whether there are good weapons, whether there is good armor, whether there is good bows and crossbows......

Even good armaments can bring great confidence and conviction to the military.

"Armaments, Di Xianggong don't have to worry for the time being, Quanzhou's ship will dock in a few days, at least more than 20,000 people's weapons will be renewed, as for the armor, it is still in a hurry, and a batch should be sent in the spring. There are also bows and crossbows, these things have to be found by Di Xianggong to find a way to recruit some good craftsmen locally to make them, and money is not a problem. And Di Xianggong also wants to make the food of these people better, and also add a part of the salary to them, which is all from me. ”

After all, Gan Qi has to use his own money to support the army, and there will be great disadvantages in doing so, that is, Gan Qi will use his own strength to support the national army when he will always be exhausted, and this burden is too great.

But there are benefits to doing so. Like what...... Buying people's hearts!

The military men of this era can't say much about the righteousness of the family and the country, so they can only look up at their superiors. Ganchi will be their superiors, and they may also be branded as Ganqi in the future, and will be loyal to Ganqi.

However, this is a benefit, and it is also possible that it will become a problem later. However, Gan Qi is a literati, a place of saints and celebrities of the Eight Classics, and a famous scholar and Confucian, so this issue should not be too serious. At least it won't be as serious as Di Qing.

However, Gan Qi himself can think about it, and he even treats the treatment of military men and the money spent on armaments as an investment, and investment and financial management can also make money.

For example, he really captured the sixteen states of Yanyun. Then this interest is too great, and now most of the nobles of the Liao State live in the sixteen states of Yanyun, and even the emperor of the Liao State is not outside the gate for most of the year, but in Yanyun. The wealth of these Liao nobles is so large that there is no need to calculate. As long as Yan Yun captures it, how much money can be made in it depends on Gan Qi's own operation.

So Gan Qi is willing to invest, there is a reward for paying, and even Gan Qi spares no effort, even if he spends his last penny, he wants to build this army of only 25,000 people.

Krypton gold will become stronger, an eternal truth. In addition, it is given to Di Qing Krypton, which is strong and strong.

Gan Qi is a word, willing.

Di Qing was not so reluctant, and said: "Gan Jingluo, if you use your private wealth to supplement military expenses like this, I'm afraid it will be a cup of salary......

Di Qing doesn't know how rich Gan Qi is. I don't know how many people Gan Qi borrowed money from when he came out of Bianliang.

Gan Qi waved his hand: "Di Xianggong doesn't need to say much, just spend it, spend it all, sell the land and sell the house, and also train the army well." Since ancient times, Yan Zhao has been a generous and tragic person, and Heshuo is a place where heroes are produced. These rivers are young and strong, and the people of Yan Zhao will definitely not be able to teach me to be disappointed. ”

Ganchi expects a lot.

Di Qing suddenly felt the pressure, and nodded: "Gan Jingluo rest assured, the old man will definitely do his best in this matter." ”

Di Qing is training, Gan Qi is relieved, after all, Di Qing is the existence that makes the party run all over the ground, if the training is not good, how can he have this military exploit?

Gan Qi did not believe in the fallacies and heresies that brought the methods of military training in later generations to this era, because the weapons were all different, and the modes of fighting were different. The direction of military training is not the same thing, and if you copy it rigidly, you will not produce results, but only problems.

Gan Qi naturally didn't think that he would be better than Di Qing in training in this era, and this kind of professional thing had to be done by professional people.

After Gan Qi said this, he said, "Is there any problem with the field recently?" ”

Zhizhou Zhang Liyi replied: "There has never been any problem, I just heard that a few days ago, the Liao people caught some smugglers and killed them on the street, so there have been fewer people transporting horses recently." ”

The Liao people are still working, and they have already smuggled more than 2,000 horses, so it is natural to have to be punished by the canon, kill chickens and monkeys, and catch a few people to kill them. With more than 2,000 horses, it is actually more than Ganchi expected, but the more the merrier.

"When the time comes, I will raise the price again to attract the Liao people to smuggle horses over." Gan Qi said this, as long as you want to smuggle, one or two horses, on the vast border of the Liao and Song Dynasty, there is no way to come over.

This is different from smuggling grain, smuggling a horse casually, you can earn dozens of yuan, you can buy a few acres of land, and the horse can also walk on its own, which will not cause a burden to the people who are rushing, on the contrary, it can also carry people away.

However, smuggling grain, one stone of grain can only earn one or two pieces of money, and people have to pick up the car, if you want to make dozens of dollars, you have to smuggle dozens of stones of grain, thousands of catties of weight, if you can't pass the car on a small road, you have to dozens of people to pick it. This kind of business is too much more troublesome than smuggling horses. It's also much easier to detect.

Zhizhou Zhang Li heard Gan Qi's words, and also said: "Gan Xianggong contributes to the country like this, and does not hesitate to use his private wealth to help the country, which is really admirable." ”

Gan Qi waved his hand, not listening to Zhang Liyi's flattery, but said: "As soon as the Spring Festival is over, the matter of smuggling horses will be stopped, and I will sell a large amount of grain, cloth, salt and tea in the field, and then I will ask the Zhizhou Yamen to cooperate with General Zhao." Recently, smuggling has to be strictly investigated. ”

Gan Qi bought so many things from Yanyun at a high price, he had to sell them at a high price before the winter wheat was harvested, and he had to make a lot of money if he made more or less money, and the most important thing was to recover the capital. Otherwise, Gan Qi will really be poor and become a dog.

Zhang Li arched his hand and replied: "Gan Xianggong rest assured, the smuggling matter, the big clans everywhere have not dared to act rashly recently, and they also know that it is the head of the landing, for these big clans, it is more than worth the loss, only some small thieves are still lucky like ants moving, recently the government has captured some more, and is about to pass the court." ”

Gan Qi said directly: "Kill, but whoever catches the smuggler, the main evil will be killed!" The servant will also be punished severely. ”

This Gan Jingluo is really murderous, under such a young appearance, there is such a ruthless heart, and he is still a famous celebrity and Confucian in Bianliang. These identities are intertwined, and in Zhang Liyi's heart, there is really a sense of disobedience.

"The subordinate obeys." Zhang Liyi was helpless, he didn't want to sentence him like this, but he couldn't help it.

……

After Gan Qi arranged a lot of things in the yamen, he turned around and summoned Zhou Dong again, and arranged another thing for Zhou Dong.

Just waiting for the Quanzhou ship to arrive, Zhou Dong had to personally escort an ordnance to continue north on a boat and give it to Di Yong, who was hiding in Yanyun Mountain. As soon as the ordnance arrives and the snow melts slightly, it's time for the big thief to do something.

All kinds of things are ready to go.

Gan Qi also became more and more nervous, after planning for so long, the matter was about to come to an end, but Gan Qi became nervous.

The two countries fought a big war and fell in a war. The fortunes of the country have changed, and the world is reversed.

Gan Qi won, and the army broke into Yanyun, and Yanyun was in his hand, and he could not make a meritorious achievement. Without Yanyun, the Liao State has since retreated to the Guanwai and grasslands, and since then the country's fortunes have declined, and it is difficult to rise again, only to be replaced by another nomadic fishing and hunting people.

If Gan Qi is defeated, there is no army in Hebei that can stop the Liao army, and the Liao people and even the cavalry from Hebei to the south can go straight to Bianliang in a short time.

Perhaps, the Northern Song Dynasty perished ahead of schedule, if you are lucky, you can still leave only half of the Southern Song Dynasty to survive, if it is unfortunate, the Southern Song Dynasty will be gone, and the Song Dynasty will be gone.

Who can say these things clearly?

But in any case, this battle was provoked by Ganch, and if there is no good outcome, the bad result will be unimaginable.

As for how to provoke this big war, Ganchi had already planned it.

Gan Qi was a little uneasy, turned around, and personally went to the Jurchen Division, which was temporarily stationed in the east of Xiongzhou City.

A thousand Jurchens, with horses, began to train the military to advance and retreat, and began to train the assembly of the battle. For food and drink, Gan Qi paid out of his own pocket to provide as much as possible.

These Jurchens, fighting horses to call for peace, and the person who trained them was Shi Honglei, a middle-level general of the Western Army, and an old soldier who really went back and forth countless times in the big array, and he was also an old cavalryman.

These Jurchens, riding on horses, are like being reborn, controlling horses like arm commands, when the horses are galloping, these Jurchens can still fly around under the horses, and even some people can stand straight on the back of the galloping horses in order to show off their equestrian skills.

His skills are so good, even Shi Honglei was secretly envious when he saw these people riding like this.

Gan Qi just looked at it, these Jurchens only lacked queues and military training.

With a blade in hand, a bow and a crossbow in hand, and a heavy iron armor, they are a torrent of steel, and as long as they are in front of Ganqi's array, they can break through all enemy obstacles.

Gan Qi was willing to stay in this temporary school field, just watching the Jurchen training.

In between training, Uguru walked up to Ganchi with a smile and said, "My master, how are my warriors?" ”

This sentence was said smoothly, and Gan Qi patted the young man who was about to catch up with his height, and said, "Your warriors are the best in the world." ”

"The world?"

"The world is all people, all places where there are people!"

"Yes, my lord, my warriors are the best warriors in the world."

"Practice well, it's time for war."

"War? Well, it's good to fight, fight the Khitans. Uguru was thrilled.

Ganchi smiled but didn't answer.

Shi Honglei walked to Gan Qi's side and said, "Jingluo, these female straight people are really powerful, natural cavalry, natural warriors. ”

"Yes, born warriors, with them, I can feel a lot more relieved." Gan Qi said.

At this time, he suddenly ran out of the city from afar, ran in front of Gan Qi, and dismounted to report: "Gan Jingluo, a team of people came from the north and sent the letter of the Liao State. ”

"It's finally delivered, it's worth waiting so long." Gan Chi knew that it was all in!
