Chapter 102: Digestion and Absorption

When Tai Shici heard Su Xiu's words, the little inferiority complex in his heart suddenly disappeared and became invisible, and a sense of pride arose, everyone's luck and experience are different, why should he compare with others? Isn't it only to increase sadness to use one's own shortcomings to be longer than others?

"Ziyi, I am very relieved that you came to join the army in my Mount Tai this time, but what I want to tell you is that my Mount Tai is different from being a soldier in other places. Your talents are sufficient to be qualified for the post of captain, but you have no military merits, and it is not easy for you to serve the people; Moreover, my Taishan officers are trained and restrained more intensively than soldiers, which is completely different from other local county soldiers, do you understand? ”

Hearing Su Xiu say this, Tai Shi Ci understood a little bit why the Taishan Army was able to emerge in this Yellow Turban Rebellion. The generals bear more on weekdays, so that the soldiers under them are more convinced, and the orders of the generals will be strictly enforced, and being able to do the orders and prohibitions is the primary condition for an elite.

"Hearing what the adults said, Ci wants to make some achievements in Mount Tai more and more, I really don't look down on the officers and soldiers in ordinary places, except for bullying the good, in the fish and meat township, nothing else, on the battlefield, I will only be a deserter, such an army even if I make a general Ci has little interest."

"Okay, since Ziyi said so, then Taishan welcomes you to join. It is different between Mount Tai and other places, so I will let you and the people who have come recently go to the barracks to see together, first familiarize yourself with the situation, and then make arrangements for you according to the situation. Oh yes, did Lingtang come with Ziyi? ”

"Ci came to Mount Tai this time and the future is uncertain, how dare you let Jia Ci follow Ci all the way up, everything will be settled down properly." Seeing that Su Xiu was so easy-going, he was meticulous and thorough, Tai Shici could feel how much Su Xiu attached importance to him, and such a lord was the object of his life's learning.

Originally, Tai Shi Ci was going to join the army in Donglai or Beihai, but because he heard that Su Xiu had exterminated the main force of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, and Beihai Taishou was afraid of it like a tiger, and the two were judged by comparison, so Tai Shi Ci gave up the near and far and came to Mount Tai.

"Parents are here, not far away, there must be a way to travel, since Ziyi is now doing things in my Mount Tai, how can I let Lingtang be aggravated by worrying, today you first rest in the post house, tomorrow I will send someone to Donglai to bring Lingtang to Mount Tai, so that Ziyi can always be filial piety in front of the hall."

"So thank you, lord."

……

Now the Yellow Turban was initially decided, although there are still Yellow Turban Rogues fleeing in all directions, but the scale is not large, after experiencing this large-scale rebellion, the attention to the military camp in various places has been significantly strengthened, and a small group of Yellow Turbans can not cause any harm to the city. Therefore, from the current point of view, Taishan will not have any more military operations in a short period of time, and Su Xiu is also happy to digest the benefits he has just gotten slowly.

First of all, the country of Jinan, the area of Jinan is slightly larger than Taishan County, but the quality of the soldiers of Jinan is too poor, Su Xiu sent a full 3,000 people to assist in training before, and the result is worse than the county soldiers when he first arrived in Taishan, in order to be able to unify the dispatch in the future, and then control the Jinan country tightly in his own hands, Su Xiu sent He Wang to the past for deployment.

He Wang is the old man of Mount Tai, at the beginning of Su Xiu's tenure, He Wang was involved in the ban on twenty military sticks, since then, He Wang's performance in daily training is really remarkable, whether it is tactical layout or tactical execution, it can be said that it is the highest among the old people in Mount Tai, plus he has participated in the battle of the Yellow Turban in these several times, and he is the most experienced group of people in Mount Tai, so that Su Xiu can be more assured in the past.

Then there's the question of the Yellow Turban captives. There are too many prisoners brought back this time, and the part of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban that Su Xiu does not plan to use for the time being, the number of prisoners in the entire Qingzhuang has reached more than 70,000 people, which is already beyond the total number of Taishan's current army, if it is not placed properly, it is equivalent to planting an unstable bomb in his own army.

After discussing with Xi Zhicai, Yu Ban, Zhao Yun, Lin Kui and other generals in the army, Su Xiu decided to break up all the yellow turbans, and divided them into three batches of Taishan troops, and selected the family members from all the middle-aged captives who went to Jinan and Mount Tai with the army.

As for the original Qingzhou Yellow Turban, the robbery of the people, the destruction of people's houses, such as the evil deeds but not to death, will be sent to the surrounding areas to build roads and bridges, and strive to pave and widen the official road from Mount Tai to Jinan as soon as possible, because the terrain of Jinan is relatively flat, in the Qingzhou territory extends in all directions, if there is a war, Mount Tai can be reinforced as quickly as possible.

Through reporting, investigation and other means, a number of Yellow Turban thieves who caused great disasters were executed, and through various means, the Yellow Turban captives were finally properly disposed of. Now after Su Xiu freed his hand, he called all the squires and wealthy people in Taishan and Jinan to prepare to discuss the construction of water conservancy.

Mount Tai and Jinan are adjacent, and Jinan is named because most of them are located in the south of Jishui, in recent years, the Jishui dam has fallen into disrepair, resulting in a large area of farming and abandonment, the drought in Qingzhou in the past few years, the flood and locust plague in the past, the farmland is barren and grassy, when chasing Li Damu, he saw not only the officers and soldiers in Jinan did not love to fight, the farmland weeds actually covered the top of the head, now Mount Tai and Jinan are dependent on each other, Su Xiu does not want Jinan to drag down Mount Tai, after all, it will be difficult to transport grain from other states and counties in a few years, he must take precautions.

As a modern Su Xiu naturally knows the benefits of water conservancy projects for farming, although he does not know the specific construction, but he knows the more advanced principles, just in these two months of recruitment for him to bring together all kinds of talents, although most of them are unknown, but many people still have real talents. Coincidentally, some of these people are good at water conservancy construction.

Accepting more than 100,000 people of Jizhou Yellow Turbans, Su Xiu can't always provide them with food and shelter, these wastelands are naturally to be distributed to them to plant, if the water conservancy is repaired again, this is undoubtedly a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people. As for the summoning of the squires, the purpose was to get them to contribute money and efforts, and of course after the levee was rebuilt, fifty percent of the wasteland along the Jishui area would be given to them as their new estate.

There is no way, the influence of the family valve in this era is too great, although these squires are not wealthy, but their influence in the local area is not small, so after the pressure of the family, they must still give them a little sweetness, otherwise it is not conducive to internal stability.
