In fact, the reorganization of the Dongjiang Army did not involve all the officers, and only the previous ones were praised and criticized. The one who benefited the most was Xie Dong and his subordinates.

However, Chen Jisheng and the other old men can only be said to remain in their positions, although their official positions have been raised by one level, but their actual power is no different from before.

But these are only temporary, and as the army continues to expand, their status will also rise.

Chen Hu, who was directly demoted to an ordinary soldier, became a typical example of the whole army. Mao Wenlong used him to set an example for the entire Dongjiang Army, killing chickens and monkeys, and deterring those who were lucky.

Chen Jisheng finally called Xie Dong and asked him to arrange Chen Hu in his pioneer camp and observe carefully, if there is the slightest disobedience or abnormality, there will be no forgiveness!

He then disbanded the army and sent them back to the barracks.

Since Dongjiang was taken over by Yuan Chonghuan, the whole army was completely disrupted by it, and some old people who were originally loyal to Mao Wenlong were transferred or secretly murdered and framed by Yuan Chonghuan.

Nowadays, there are very few old people who can still stay in the army, and it can be said that there are only Chen Jisheng, Xu Fuzuo, Liu Guangzuo, and Chengzuo left.

And the other three thousand generals who were promoted before were only temporarily promoted in view of their performance in participating in this grain robbery.

As for whether they are reliable or not, it will take some time to observe before we can decide whether to include them in the ranks of our own people.

The matter of forming the army came to an end for the time being, Chen Jisheng left the barracks, handed over all the remaining trivial matters to Xu Fuzuo to manage, and he himself returned to the city to report to Mao Wenlong.

Mao Wenlong's prestige in the army has obviously been greatly weakened, and if it weren't for Xu Fuzhuo's previous hiding, it is estimated that the Dongjiang Army would have been divided by Yuan Chonghuan.

It is precisely because of this that the combat power of the Dongjiang Army has directly dropped a lot.

hurriedly returned to Mao's mansion, only to see Mao Wenlong, accompanied by Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan, who seemed to be about to go out.

Mao Wenlong met Chen Jisheng who came back when he was about to get into the carriage, and after groaning a little, he asked him to wait at the door for a while, and then got into the carriage, and only saw him come down again after a while.

"Everything is done in the barracks?" Mao Wenlong opened his mouth and asked.

Chen Jisheng nodded and said: "It's all done, now the entire army is still very scattered, if you want to restore your previous strength, it seems that there is no way to do it in a short time." ”

Mao Wenlong didn't blame Chen Jisheng, but nodded and said: "Yuan Chonghuan does have a hand, and in a short period of time, he has made the Dongjiang Army twisted into a rope like this. ”

Chen Jisheng was extremely disdainful: "This Yuan thief will only engage in these three bad methods, and see what kind of Dongjiang Town we have built up with great difficulty after he takes over." Now it has fallen into the hands of Houjin, so that our hard work in the past few years has been wasted. ”

Chen Jisheng actually misses the days of the soil emperor in Dongjiang Town before, although he is dealing with the Tartars all the time. But compared with those Tartars, the Dongjiang Army already had a set of methods to deal with them.

At that time, the guerrilla warfare of the Dongjiang Army had already been used with ease, and as long as the Tartars were not the main force and the whole army pressed up, they could easily deal with it.

Now that Yuan Chonghuan has scattered and died, he has died, and he has gone, and the Dongjiang Army is no longer the Dongjiang Army with one heart before. Even if there are any remnants of Yuan Chonghuan in the army now, it is unknown!

Mao Wenlong smiled bitterly and shook his head, the current Yuan Chonghuan has long since died, and even his reputation has been ruined. It's obviously not worth it to be angry with a dead man with a bad reputation!

"Well, now that everyone is dead, don't mention the past! The rest of the time may calm down, and if you have time, tidy up your barracks. ”

"Yes, Chief Soldier!"

Mao Wenlong didn't say anything more, waved his hand to let Chen Jisheng retreat, and then returned to the carriage.

As soon as they got into the carriage, they saw Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan'an sitting inside, and when they saw Mao Wenlong coming back, both of them were smiling and looking in a good mood.

"Xianggong, the grain has been properly stored, and it is stored in five places. One was left in the barracks, part of the farmstead, and some in our house. The remaining two are in the two grain stores we just opened! Chen Lan talked like a few treasures!

Mao Wenlong got into the carriage, sat directly in the middle of the second daughter, hugged the second daughter, hugged the second daughter in his arms, and said with a smile: "The husband has a wife, why worry about big things, as the saying goes, every successful man must have a good wife and mother behind him." You are the good wife behind the father-in-law! ”

Chen Lan loves to listen to this, of course, Hong Ziyan also likes to listen to it, being able to be recognized and praised by the man he likes like this, both of them feel that all the hard work is worth it.

"Where did you hear this nonsense, how can anyone in this world praise us women so much." After Chen Lan was happy, he immediately refuted Mao Wenlong.

In this ancient world, the status of a woman is indeed quite low, and no one will praise it like this. Obviously, this is Mao Wenlong is just making the two happy.

After Mao Wenlong was stunned for a short time, he realized that he had missed what he said just now, and after smirking twice to cover up the past, he said seriously: "Xianggong is now very manpowered, and the army is full of rough men, and he doesn't know a few big characters. The only one who recognizes a few words, but he doesn't know much about this bookkeeping, but fortunately the two of you help each other, otherwise they don't know what to do. ”

Today, Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan are both the logistics bosses of the Dongjiang Army, and all the military quartermasters are arranged and dispatched by the two. Mao Wenlong was able to be so idle, otherwise the problem of logistics scheduling alone would be enough for him to have a headache.

In order to alleviate the local people's demand for food, Mao Wenlong planned to open two grain shops in the city, in addition to earning some silver in exchange for other military supplies, he could also start recruiting some displaced people by the way.

In just two months, half of the land in Ye County has been cleared, and all of it has been planted with sweet potatoes. Corn and potatoes need to be cultivated for one more season before they can be planted on a large scale.

As long as the heavens do not come to make trouble, there will be no major natural and man-made disasters, and the sweet potatoes of this season will be harvested smoothly. Mao Wenlong can spend this year carefree!

Today, when the grain shop opened, Mao Wenlong went to the town at the invitation of the second daughter, and the county order and the Shen family would go to congratulate him, which was regarded as supporting Mao Wenlong's façade, and at the same time warning those young people not to get rich.

At this time of serious food shortage, Mao Wenlong suddenly opened a grain shop. Not only did the people in the city feel incredible, but they also knew Mao Wenlong's county order and the Shen family better, but they were also shocked.
