Education is very important, and raising awareness and broadening their horizons will naturally boost their self-confidence.

Many families in Jingzhou Prefecture have joined the "Red Flag Army" system, and there is a man in the family who participates in intensive training during the off-season, not only to practice the skills of killing enemies, but also to feel the power of the collective.

Holding an ash pole spear in his hand, because he often listened to the lectures of the "Red Banner Army" propaganda team members and the pacification officer, the Shengdou Xiaomin, who began to read, read, and study, learned self-esteem and self-love.

They will no longer be submissive, there are many young and middle-aged people in the village who participate in the "Red Banner Army" training, and the officials and officials really dare not be presumptuous.

Under Zhao Kun's command, there were 5,000 regular soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" and 15,000 villagers who had been trained for more than a year.

Now Zhao Kun is constantly attacking, and he is also sparing no effort to collect war horses and pull horses, and he strives to form a cavalry team of 2,000 cavalry, so that he can annihilate those small groups of rogue bandits who are vainly trying to approach the Jingzhou area, rather than defeating them.

The "Red Banner Army" in Anqing Prefecture has only been involved for only one year, and there are not many township warriors who have turned into regulars, and there are only five regular soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" under the command of the chief general Pei Yuanwu, with a total of 1,800 men and horses, including 360 cavalry, and 3,000 township warriors in training.

Due to the high proportion of students here, the number of propaganda teams managed by Luo Mingshi has developed rapidly, and now there are two hundred people, including Luo Mingshi, who are all practicing self-generated shooting.

The generals of the "Red Banner Army" stationed in the interior had the largest cavalry in their hands, and Gu Rushan had the most cavalry.

He now has two thousand cavalry, both of which can have two horses to ride, basically a mix of middle and upper class war horses, one pull horse, or inferior war horses.

Gu Rushan also has two thousand musketeers, one thousand cold weapons infantry, and one general artilleryman.

Yingzhou, Huoqiu County and other prefectures and counties were so badly harmed by the bandits that too many people who had no food and clothing were transferred to the Liaoning West Corridor for reclamation.

The people who are unable to leave their homeland are all in danger, and they all consciously and voluntarily accept the training of the "Red Banner Army", and there are as many as 20,000 villagers who are trained during the slack time.

After Gu Rushan came to Yingzhou, he had already fought with the Liukou seven or eight times, and even killed the famous big leaders in the seventy-two battalions of Caoshangfei and Shangshan Hu, which was of course due to the benefits of cavalry raids.

It is also due to the ability to run that a virtuous circle has been formed, resulting in being able to attack the Liukou horse team, capturing war horses, pulling horses, and expanding the cavalry team.

The boundaries of Yingzhou are united, and every household is not in the same place as the rogues.

There is also Gu Rushan's continuous attack and killing of the 72nd battalion of the team that has some prestige in the Liukou, and now the Liukou is walking around here, basically refusing to flow to Yingzhou.

Many melee battles in a year, directly affecting the harvest, even if the area of Yingzhou planted maize, potatoes and sweet potatoes could not achieve food self-sufficiency, Chongzhen in the early spring of the ninth year urgently dispatched 300,000 stone of grain to curb the great famine of Yizi and food.

Henan was plagued by the Liukou and Jiannu in turn, and the people were even more miserable, and more refugees poured into the Jiangbei area of Nanzhili.

Gu Rushan has been arranging for his subordinates to guide refugees to Anqing and Haizhou for transshipment, but fortunately, the "Red Flag Army" has transported grain and refugees out, and the tragedy of millions of people starving to death in history has not been staged.

Since more than 4 million mu of land has been preserved this year and the autumn harvest has been completed, half of which belongs to the "Red Banner Army" organization, Gu Rushan has obtained potatoes, maize, sweet potatoes, and a part of wheat and miscellaneous grains, with a total amount of more than 1 million stones.

The millions of people in the border of several hundred miles with Yingzhou as the center also have some harvests in their hands, and they will not be displaced if they can get some relief food from the "Red Banner Army".

However, this should be established under the condition of not being robbed by the rogues or Qing soldiers, but the information sent back by the flag guards and scouts showed that Jiannu had already reached Kaifeng, and it was likely that they would continue to attack the city to the east.

Gu Rushan was highly nervous, the propaganda team organized by Ni Gu and Ni Benchun was also widely publicizing, and Huoqiu County, Yingzhou, and other areas touched by the "Red Flag Army" were strengthening their inventory and defense.

Many officials were rescued by the "Red Banner Army" and not only escaped death themselves, but also saved the lives of a large family.

They spared no effort to publicize the joint defense of armor led by the "Red Flag Army", and there were not a few sons and children who joined the propaganda team, and there were even more than a dozen sons of scholars.

In order to prevent the rogues and Jiannu from being reinforced, the propaganda team called on the soldiers and civilians to transport all the food and livestock into the nearest city.

The soldiers and civilians and officials of Yingzhou, who had already been poisoned by the rogue once, had seen the horror of the military disaster, and they had no illusions.

Knowing that only by working together to defend the city can he and his family be saved, there are more than 10,000 guards organized in several county towns, and at least they have ash pole spears to assassinate.

Many soldiers and civilians and officials in Henan, Shaanxi, and Shanxi who relied on the city to hold on to the city saw that Jiannu was still raging and had no intention of retreating, and due to the influx of a large number of people into the city, there was little food left.

If this continues, there is no need for Qing troops to attack, and a tragedy of cannibalism will break out in the city, and too many civilian and military generals will feel hopeless.

Many civilian officials had the idea of simply hanging themselves, and some military attaches began to ponder whether to open the city gates and surrender to Jiannu or simply become thieves.

At this moment, the imperial court messengers, the Quartet Express Dart Division, and the "Red Banner Army" sentry horses continued to appear outside the cities that were still holding on, and they did not ask to enter the city at all, but shouted loudly.

Although the content is simpler, it is like a warm current that dispels the cold winter.

"The adults, soldiers and civilians in a certain city, please tell each other that the general led 100,000 "Red Banner Army" men and horses into Shanxi to attack the Qing army, and the first goal was to attack Shuozhou City, where Jiannu was entrenched. ”

"Brothers of the Ming army, we are the messengers of the 'Red Banner Army', the Duke of Liao has not sat idly by and watched Jiannu run rampant, he has launched a sharp offensive, and he will recover Shuozhou City in a few days and cut off the return route of those mongrels."

"Brothers, hold on a little longer, the 'Red Flag Army' 100,000 horses are here, Jiannu is not far from death, and the thieves and future generations will be left stinking for 10,000 years!"

The "Red Flag Army" is already the only hope in the hearts of the Ming army and the people, even if many civilian and military generals hate the conscription of generals to govern the army strictly, punish corruption, and refuse anyone to eat empty quotas and take cards, at this time they also feel that it is timely to rain.

Too many generals who have lost confidence and are ready to starve to death should open the city gate and simply surrender to the Qing soldiers, and at least many generals who have wavered in their determination to defend the city will see the effect of the "Red Banner Army" after participating in the war before deciding whether they will go or stay.

All this was deliberately arranged by Huang Han, he knew that the Qing army had been in the army for too long, so that too many places could not be harvested in autumn, and the cities that lacked food did not know how many.
