Outside Linqiang City, the war horses were whistling, and Hou Junji, Guo Xiaoke, Cheng Mingzhen and others were training cavalry, forming various formations, charging and running. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This time it was a complete victory, and the Sui army captured 10,000 war horses in the city, increasing the supply of horses for the cavalry.

And more than 4,000 troops were incorporated together and joined the marching phalanx of the vanguard army, which was used to charge into battle, and only after the test period could they be treated normally.

Luo Zhaoyun personally supervised outside the city, reviewed the training of the three armies, and instructed the generals to rest for only two days, and then immediately hit the road, to send troops to Tulou Mountain, and pointed at the mountain defense line.

Calculate the time, Xue Wanqian and his people should be walking through the Pipa Gorge, and the dangerous road is the route that the surprise of the strange soldiers.

"Du Changshi, how many recruits have been recruited?"

Du Ruhui said: "Back to the young marshal, recruited more than 3,000 people, but the number of people in the city is limited, plus the previous several imperial court conscriptions, Li Liang conscription, the strong man has been sharply reduced, this time, the new soldiers are still because of the support of the young marshal, thinking of the favor of the former young marshal, this is the only way to join the army, otherwise, it is difficult to find people." ”

"Post our new rules, join the army, you can be tax-free for your family, and a certain amount of military salary subsidies will be issued, and when you return to your hometown, there will be a resettlement payment, and you will have a pension for those who died on the battlefield."

"Well, the document has been posted, if you compare the treatment, our army should think about the soldiers the most, and the treatment is the best." Du Ruhui nodded and said.

"The government military system was still reasonable at first, but in troubled times, it is no longer attractive, it is not as good as real money and silver military salaries, exempt from certain taxes, and then give certain care, such treatment, so that the people can truly appreciate the sweetness and be willing to serve us."

Du Ruhui worried: "Young marshal, it's just that we are with us, and the military salary we bring is not much, and we will pay it like this for a long time, and with the increase of the army in the future, it will be stretched, and once the financial situation is tight and difficult to distribute, it may lead to a mutiny, which will bring huge pressure to the inventory." ”

Luo Zhaoyun nodded and said: "I understand, so we need to improve the integration of the economic system and the military system, fortunately, the military salary issued now is not large, just a pocket money, but it is much better than the other princes' armies, they do not have the concept of a conscription system, and there is no fixed military salary." ”

"We have established a mailing system, after the monthly payment of military salaries, everyone can choose to mail home, so as not to lose and die in battle, so that their money is just a number, will be transferred to the rear consumption, fill the household, into the local economy, our chamber of commerce in the occupied areas by stimulating consumption, innovation, and will earn money back, but also make the market circulation faster, conducive to local development."

Du Ruhui listened, a little dumbfounded, for economic issues, although he has a little understanding, but economic thinking must be rigid, this is because the scholars of this era often look down on business, agriculture and industry, therefore, the great talents, often on commercial circulation, trade deficit and the like, limited experience, seem to understand but not understand.

After Jinyang raised troops, the brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin set out from Taiyuan County with 30,000 vanguard troops and marched south to attack Xihe County.

This way through Taigu, Qixian, Pingyao, Jiexiu and other small Chengyi, often invincible, invincible, few defenders, fleeing from the wind.

Li Jiancheng has Yang Wenwei, Feng Li, Xie Shufang and other cronies under his account, controlling the vanguard left army, Li Shimin took the green forest heroes he made friends with on weekdays, the heroes of the capital, Fang Xuanling, Yin Kaishan, Duan Zhixuan, Lei Yongji and others, controlled the vanguard right army, cooperated properly, and did not encounter a big enemy.

However, acting king Yang Yu sent Huyalang to garrison Huoyi in Linfen County with tens of thousands of elite soldiers led by Song Laosheng, and tens of thousands of Xiaoguo with Qu Tutong to garrison Hedong County, echoing Song Laosheng from afar to resist the Tang army.

Huoyi is just south of Xihe County, it is the only way to go south, the city pass is close to the mountain, the terrain is dangerous, it is a military town important place, blocking the way of the Tang army to the south.

"Huoyi's walls are high and strong, if it is attacked hard, I am afraid that there will be heavy casualties." Li Jiancheng hesitated, not wanting to attack like this.

Li Shimin said young and vigorously: "When you go to the army to fight and strategize, the capable people who really know how to use the army are not fighting head-on, killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 yourself, so you can't get out of the climate with the troops, so you still use tricks." ”

"Second brother, what plan have you come up with?" Li Jiancheng knows that his second brother usually has a lot of whimsical ideas, does not play cards according to common sense, and has a lot of ghost ideas, so when he encounters problems, he can't help but ask.

"This, not for the time being, but the general direction is not wrong, the way, you have to go back and think about it." Li Er is young after all, only eighteen years old, he usually doesn't read much, likes to dance knives and guns, ride horses and shoot arrows, and doesn't like to read, he has no plans, he needs to go back and ask those strategists.

Li Jiancheng sighed: "Okay, let's each think about the strategy of dealing with Song Laosheng in the camp, if we can't think of it in a few days, then my father's Chinese army will arrive, and when the time comes, we need to work together to think about how to deal with Song Laosheng." ”

Li Er hurriedly spoke: "Then how can we do it, the soldiers are fast, we can't delay for too long, otherwise, the acting king will mobilize more troops from around to block our army, and this is a great opportunity for our brothers to make meritorious contributions, and we can't let my father and those people around us underestimate our ability." ”

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said: "Song Laosheng is stationed in Huoyi, this is not the most terrible, we still have to beware of Qu Tutong, that is the fierce general of the Great Sui, with tens of thousands of elites of Xiaoguowei, stationed in Hedong County, as Song Laosheng's rear, the front is difficult, when it is safe, we are young after all, we have little experience in leading troops, we must not be reckless, and be heroes." ”

Li Shimin pouted, although he didn't talk back, but he didn't think so, he knew very well that his eldest brother was doing things safely, stubborn and conservative, not flexible enough, not good at tackling tough problems, but if the Li family wants to fight the world on horseback, they need a son who is good at leading troops to fight, otherwise how can he serve the public and control the heroes?
