For example, the farmer's wife remembered that her current man was not the original man, but she was more good-looking, and at that time she ordered each family to live separately, completely ending the situation of living in shacks, and she was now a stronger man, and after coming back, the two men fought, and she became the woman of the current man.

As the two women spoke, they had reached the manure pit, which was outside the village, and was concentrated here for the sake of cleanliness and the accumulation of manure for the farmland.

There is also a public toilet on one side of the pit, and on the other side is the place where the toilet is emptied, and there is a sign on the side of the pit that says "feces are not in the pit and are fined five hangings", and the two of them carefully stood on the edge of the pit and poured the toilet out.

Zhou Xiaoya ran more than a dozen steps away, and shook the wheel to get up a bucket of water, and the farmer's old servant shook it while saying to Zhou Xiaoya: "It's still easy to use, I heard that the ice woman who looked like a fairy came to our salt farm a few years ago taught people to make it, what is it called orange tree, it's really convenient to carry the water in the irrigation well." ”

When the water came up, the two of them washed the toilet while talking, and the farmer's wife stretched her waist and looked up at the fields outside the village, where the wheat seeds and beans had been planted, and they were waiting to be watered and sprouted.

Since the beginning of spring, there has been very little rain, and now it is mainly watered by digging irrigation wells, the wellhead is too small, and it is quite tiring to carry water with orange trees, but fortunately, the beautiful ice woman also taught everyone to build two small waterwheels by the river, which can lead water to the farmland for irrigation.

After Wang Junlin inspected the salt field for seven days, he summoned Nie Xiaoyu, Liu Ziming, Shan Xiongxin, Du Ruhui, Xiangxiang, Shen Guoer, Zhang Tiangang, Wei Chi Jingde, Lu Han, Guan Xiaotong, Xu Xiaohu, Lu Shijun and other important henchmen under his command to gather in the salt field to hold a meeting on the next step of army development, so that Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba also attended.

The reason why he chose to hold the conference in the salt field instead of the county town was naturally to avoid Xue Li and others, who were not yet considered confidants.

At present, the army under the command of Wang Junlin can be divided into four parts.

Shan Xiongxin commanded a thousand government soldiers, according to Wang Junlin's requirements, the next step will be all trained into cavalry, because the government soldiers are in the clear, one thousand is already the limit, so we must strive for excellence, whether it is personal force or combat experience, we strive to be a real elite soldier. In the future, when going to the battlefield, this thousand cavalry will not be worth ten at least comparable to ordinary three thousand cavalry.

The second part of the people is Wei Chi Jingde's 3,000 people, these people were originally all bandits under Wei Chi Jingde, but when they met Captain Chi Jingde, a fierce general with the talent of a general, how could they be ordinary bandits, and now they have a sophisticated supply of armor and weapons, and they don't have to worry about being surrounded and suppressed by the government, and they don't worry about eating and drinking, and they are dedicated to training. According to Wang Junlin's plan, 1,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry among the 3,000 men were infantry, and they were infantry proficient in mountain warfare.

The third part of the people and horses is the three thousand salt horses led by Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong in the salt field, because of the concealment of the salt field, and the salt ding as a cover, in the clear sense of the three thousand people, in fact, it will eventually be six thousand people, these people have more than 500 elite soldiers originally from Youzhou as the backbone, and Nie Xiaoyu personally brought it for a month or two, combined with thousands of years of experience in training and battle formations, they have set a unique training method.

Although it is composed of salt Ding and salt slaves who have never been on the battlefield before, it is the army that Wang Junlin is most looking forward to. According to the plan, there will be 2,000 cavalry, 4,000 infantry, and of course, some classes will be subdivided, such as archers, sword and shield men, spearmen, etc.

The fourth part of the men and horses are naturally the sailors on Snake Island, led by Lu Shijun, and now Nie Xiaoyu personally watches the training, and now there are more than 3,000 officers and soldiers who "defected" from the Fanyang County Naval Division, Wang Junlin sent their families in Fanyang County to the island, and Nie Xiaoyu absorbed some of the more than 2,000 rebels of the original Lu clan who were sent to the island, and made up enough for 4,000 sailors, there are only ten warships at the moment, and the shipyard will continue to build warships for them in the next step, according to the plan, there will be four big ships of 5,000 stones, and ten ships of 3,000 stones. Fifty battleships ranging from one thousand stone to two thousand stone.

Because seeing that there are more than three years left, the Great Sui is going to start a war with Goguryeo, so the water division is the army that Wang Junlin attaches the most importance to, according to Wang Junlin's plan, the number of men and horses will eventually reach 10,000, of course, Snake Island can not accommodate so many people, Wang Junlin urged Nie Xiaoyu to train the water division as soon as possible, that is, he wanted to send 3,000 of the 4,000 water divisions to the two islands given to him by the Goguryeo Prime Minister Yuan Taizuo, and control them in his hands first.

This matter can not be delayed any longer, Jin Yibei and Mao Haitao sent by Yuan Taizuo came to Wang Junlin every day to cry, after all, Jin Yibei also helped deal with Dou Shihai before, and Yuan Taizuo also completed all Wang Junlin's requirements, no matter what, it is time to return his son Yuan Gai Suwen to others.

In this way, before he knew it, Wang Junlin's army in Fanyang County already had 10,000 people, and according to this plan, he would have 15,000 men and horses in half a year at most.

And this is not counting the 8,000 county soldiers in the eight counties, the people who served as the captains of the county soldiers were all Wang Junlin's people, and they also trained the county soldiers fiercely according to Wang Junlin's orders, although they could not compare to the government soldiers, and the army trained by the training method personally designed by Nie Xiaoyu in the salt field, but according to Wang Junlin's assumption, the combat power of the 8,000 county soldiers could not be worse than the 3,000 soldiers and horses of Wei Chi Jingde, who were born bandits.

In addition, according to Wang Junlin's requirements, all the men in the 20,000 farmers in the salt field should also train their troops in addition to farming, and prepare like the reserve members of later generations, so that when it comes to war, whether it is to fight Goguryeo or deal with various civil wars in the country, these people can be replenished to the regular army consumed at any time, and they can be organized at any time, and with a little training, they will be a quite effective army.

There are still eight counties, Wang Junlin ordered each county to organize rotational training for the people in villages and towns, and set up additional township camps, just like the salt farms, to carry out a certain amount of training during the slack time.

Wang Junlin's people, in addition to the government soldiers can be paid by the Fanyang County finance, the salt of the salt field can be subsidized by a part, and the rest has to be paid by him out of his own pocket, and all the generals and officials of these armies understand this, so the three places of Yanchang, Lu's Houshan, and Snake Island actually belong to Wang Junlin's private soldiers.

These people have a total of 10,000 men at present, and will not be less than 15,000 in the end, and the expenses of 15,000 troops must be maintained, including 4,000 cavalry and 4,000 sailors.
