If you want to increase fiscal revenue through transaction tax, you must increase the volume of trade and increase the amount of trade. It's an inevitable choice. For Zhang Yun, this is just a relationship of letters, he is a businessman, governing a region, he may not be very good at it, but he still knows about this business, he quickly wrote a lot of letters to his good friends in the business field to send invitations, this is for him. This is the biggest advantage.

The advantage of a businessman is that they know what is most needed. And then make a lot of money with their business sense, and that's what they're thinking about right now. Expand the volume of trade.

The northern regions controlled by the Republican Army. The fighting continues here. More than a dozen villages have been affected by the war, but fortunately, the damage to people is relatively small. Most of the buildings were damaged.

Daxi Village is a village outside the remaining veins of Taihang Mountain, and the village has dug tunnels. Above them, there is a small West Village, they all came from Jizhou, because they wanted to cross the Taihang Mountain, so they settled here. The two villages together have only about 50 households, and the number of people is relatively small. The whole village is in a state of poverty all year round. After the Red Turbans came here, they originally planned to reclaim the land, but after seeing the local soil conditions, they decided to give up. There are still some thin fields in Daxi Village, and all their land adds up to more than 270 acres. Production was also very limited, and the local situation was in a state of hunger for a long time, and after reporting the situation, the Red Turbans decided to annex the villages, that is. It is necessary to merge the whole of Onishi, Onishi, and the two villages and move them to the south, so that the land can be concentrated. The role of labor saving has come up.

In the past, the Red Turbans provided a large amount of food here, because in the future, this area will be leased to large landowners who are willing to farm, because in the future, it will be used as a military border fortress area, so that they can get greater development.

It's a pity that it hasn't started yet. And the Black Mountain thieves came.

Fortunately, the local militia was organized, which was Shangwu's request, and he demanded that each village should establish a militia organization, which was the source of the villagers' self-defense and the most basic reinforcement of the Red Turban Army. Without this, the IRA's replenishment would have been rapidly depleted. Therefore, the militia is the most basic and basic combat force of the combat units of the Republican Army.

Two villages organized an amazing militia force. More than 150 people joined the militia. Among them are the elderly, women, children. The elderly can deliver ammunition and care for the wounded, women can cook, and children can pass on information. The reason why all the people in the village joined the militia was because they did not have enough food rations for the whole village. And joining the militia can feed them, how simple and the opposite. Involve almost everyone in both villages in this war. They excavated a large number of tunnels in the only Dainishi Village. Because the land in Konishi Village is built on a layer of hard rock. The land is extremely thin. Large-scale excavation of tunnels is simply not possible.

Considering that this is a border area, there is a mobile infantry platoon deployed here. The militia company was armed with thirty muskets, as well as a large number of **. Ammunition. **。 These things are actually equipping infantry platoons. This is an important supply base for them.

"Bang." underneath a stone mill. Suddenly, a gunshot rang out. The Black Mountain thieves were so frightened that they turned around and ran. One of the Montenegrin thieves was unfortunately hit, and a huge bullet made a large hole in his chest, and then the other party fell to the ground, motionless, and he was killed.

"Bang." Almost every time a gunshot rang out. There will always be an unlucky guy who falls to the ground, and the Black Mountain thieves are frightened by the beating. They only hugged their heads and scurried, and they didn't know where they were hit and killed. In short, their situation has become extremely unfavorable.

"Boom." A huge explosion was heard. They had seen such weapons at their time. It's just deadly.

"Buzz." The ears of the Black Mountain thief's big ears were buzzing. He was called big ears by everyone because of his big ears. Big Ears is actually an honest farmer, because their piece of house was robbed by Black Mountain thieves. All the food was taken away. He originally had a cow. The government almost snatched the cow from the government's taxation, and he tried desperately to protect it. But as a result, after the Black Mountain thieves came, his cow was eaten by them. Big Ears was also coerced in, because he kept asking the other party to pay for the cow, and as a result, he also became a black mountain thief. They kept beating him, but they didn't kill him. It's to beat him. And then let him do everything. Big Ears still have to cook for those people every day. This time they robbed the village, and the food was not made. Suddenly, there was an explosion.

Big Ears hadn't heard the explosion at all, his ears were big, and he was buzzing all at once. In short, it's not good. Then he saw smoke coming out of nowhere. Then I saw something fly out and kill a black thief. It was black. Fly straight towards a black mountain bandit leader. Hit the opponent in the head. The entire upper part of the head is gone. The things in the eyes are still there, and there is no half of the head on it, which is very scary to look at, and the ** blood water is flowing all over the ground all at once.

"Ahh Yes. Yes. Big ears were scared and peed out. His pants were wet all at once. He felt the heat in his lower body, and then he felt the cold. But he couldn't move his legs at all. In such a situation, the only way he could move was to lean against a wall. Leaning on it, he might feel that he was alive.

The shouting of the big ears did not make him stop being afraid, fearful, on the contrary, in a place in the corner of the wall, he suddenly moved, and then the big ears felt a flicker in front of him, a white flower, but he saw a man fall in front of him, and he felt that his face was hot. It was blood, and the big ears could only keep themselves certain calm by shouting. Although he had already seen the dead. Some of the Montenegrin thieves are very fierce, they always bully the locals at will, and some rob women. Money, women, killing, this may be the life of a Montenegrin thief. Such an honest person with big ears simply can't stand this. In fact, every time the body is collected, there is him. Because their leader wanted to try the sword, but every time he became afraid. He's the kind of person who can't stand stimulation.

The entire Black Mountain Thieves have become chaotic. Killed, pushed to the ground, trampled to death. In short, they are a group of rabble, and even the most ferocious people can't prevent such a situation from happening if they kill a few people. Because as long as anyone resists, they will be killed. The loud sound, the lightning like firelight, completely shattered their will to fight. They were completely devastated.

This is a situation in which the IRA militia is fighting. The militia chose all sorts of flexible advantages, with the help of muskets, superiority in weapons, constant killing, delaying the enemy's actions, and they inflicted great losses on the Montenegrin bandits. That's enough to cost them everything.

Lijiazhuang. War Department.

"The militia really has a set." Cao Cao said with a telegram. The cable is still being erected, but a section has already been laid in advance. After doing a lot of publicity. Each village, as long as the cable passes through the place. The local villagers will actively protect it. Especially the people who once cut the entire cable for a little copper wire, they are more active, and they mobilize the whole family to actively erect telephone poles and erect cables. At the same time, he also kept telling the surrounding people about the benefits of these cables. Let them all be more careful, and sometimes they have to look at the cable when it is dark, and they use such a simple way to show their concern for the cable. Under such protection, the telegraph could be quickly unfolded. Another cable is also actively unfolding. They led directly to Huguan, which was still part of the war zone. Of course, a new cable laying point is also actively advancing, and they are, Handan. It was the place where the trade was greatest. In fact, they are the economic center of the entire base area.

"Hmm. They're resisting in their way, but we have to hurry. The 4th Infantry Division has been mobilized and entered there in batches. We're tying a pocket. Shang Wu looked at the telegram and said. Then he handed it over to the staff officer, recorded, archived.

The GRS must also be established as soon as possible. A large number of documents are constantly generated, all of which are classified and preserved, and archives can give them a greater advantage in terms of records, which is not raised by Shang Wu but by Jia Xu, because Jia Xu knows Xiao He's story. The management of archives is also one of his jobs.

"But we haven't solved one problem yet, and that is how to attract more Montenegrin thieves here. These black thieves are very cunning, and if we pounce on them all, we will scare them all away, which is not good. Cao Cao said.

"Is there anything you can do?" Shang Wu nodded and asked Cao Cao.

"I have a solution, however, it doesn't seem to look good, or rather, it sounds, to use words. It's just not reliable. Cao Cao said.

"Brother Meng De said it as soon as possible. This is not your Brother Mengde's style. Shang Wu said.

"Huh. Also, then I'll just say it. My suggestion is to keep committing troops on small scales, for example, we expect to commit an infantry regiment throughout the region. However, we don't throw it into it all at once, just a company, a company into it, so that the Black Mountain thieves don't notice that we are constantly increasing our troops, they just feel that this area is a little tricky, and that's it, and our increased troops. Constantly depleting their strength and increasing our military strength, when all nine infantry companies of a regiment are transferred into it, they will suddenly find that they have been deceived. At that time, we happened to plug in from behind. Cao Cao said. Cao Cao fully learned how Shang Wu dealt with them at the beginning, because they suffered such a loss in the first place. It was taboo to divide the army, but Shang Wu did it at the time. The main reason is that his military system is very strong and can be controlled down to the company and platoon level, especially the first brigade and the third brigade, which have the strongest combat effectiveness, can achieve the tactical upgrade of the squad and platoon. So, Cao Cao dared to do it.

"Hmm. Yes, we're just going to increase our strength little by little. Draw them over. Use scattered tactics to lure them to increase their forces. By the time they came to their senses, they were completely finished. Shang Wu agreed with Cao Cao's approach. Cao Cao also made a plan based on the situation of the republican army, and if it was given to the official army, he would definitely not do it. Because once the troops are dispersed to fight, it will be difficult to gather them at that time. But the Republican Army dared to do this, they had ranks, and they could easily gather troops. As long as you see who has a high rank, you can judge who is the commander. Obey whom's command, the officers and soldiers can't do this in any case. Because that's for them. It's too hard.

Giant Deer City.

"Your Excellency. The Montenegrin bandits have already fought with the Republican Army. More than 10,000 Montenegrin thieves went there. However, the Montenegrin thieves did not get much cheap. A Sima said.

"Huh. If the Montenegrin thieves could get a bargain, we wouldn't have lost so badly. The strength of the Republican Army has dropped considerably. We don't have to worry about that. Zhu Jun said with a smile.

"However, my lord, the last general thinks that we can also send troops to fight the Black Mountain thieves at this time. Hit their morale hard. Sima suggested.

"Nope. We don't attack, we don't need to strike, it doesn't mean much to us, and the timing of the attack is not right. Zhu Jun said.

"This. My lord, the last general does not understand. Sima shook his head and said puzzled.

"The fighting power of the Republican Army is extremely fast, don't you see? They are accustomed to attacking from both flanks of the battlefield, such as the one when they defeated the Northern Army, they stuck us like two huge iron pincers, and the Republicans will inevitably do this time, but they feel that the Black Mountain thieves have given them too little money at the moment. It's only 10,000 people, which is not enough for them to stuff their teeth. If there are more troops, when they have gathered to a certain extent, the Republicans will show their iron pincers, and then we will be able to attack, and we will be done. Why bother so much to prepare for them. Zhu Jun said with a smile. Sima suddenly seemed to understand something. The Republican Army is strong, so let them do a good job. It's also a good result for them to wait on the sidelines.
