The Eight Banners are treated very well, and once they enter the Eight Banners, the identity on the face and the food and clothing on the inside have been solved, and it also provides a steady stream of soldiers, which is also conducive to the rapid formation and reinforcement of combat effectiveness and fighting will in the early stage.

But there are good sides and bad sides to things, and the disadvantages of the late Eight Banners system are also very serious, and the Qing Dynasty is the best example.

In the previous life, in history, Nurhachi established the Eight Banners Army, which was quickly integrated, and the northeast region was still in the Jurchen power of the primitive fishing and hunting people.

These Jurchens who survived in a harsh environment, thanks to the Eight Banners system, broke the Ming army every time and established a reputation of "Manchurian people are less than 10,000, and Manchurian are invincible".

After the Eight Banners Qing soldiers entered the customs and entered the prosperous Central Plains, and established the Qing Dynasty, soon the Eight Banners soldiers were "obsessed" with the enjoyment of fine clothes and jade food, and the wind of martial arts practice declined rapidly, and the phenomenon of leisure and hard work was infected everywhere, and the will to fight declined.

Even the newly formed green battalion soldiers could not compare, and in the end, they could only survive by relying on state support and relief, and they no longer had the slightest combat ability.

"Full of people less than 10,000, full of 10,000 invincible" has evolved into "brown rice to fall, see thieves to run, hire to replace early, camp to be few", usually when the review has to hire people to replace, only know a group of people who carry cages and walk dogs.

Moreover, because of the Eight Banners Army, the iron law that the Manchu and Han could not intermarry made the Eight Banners Jurchens take wives and concubines only among the Jurchens themselves.

At that time, there was no monogamy, there were groups of high-ranking wives and concubines, and there were no swords to keep taking concubines, an emperor had to account for three thousand, the prince had to get a hundred, and the county king, Baylor, and Beizi, which did not account for one hundred and eighty people.

Among them, there are some Han female "sex", but the Han female "sex" has no identity, and the children born to them cannot be entered into the family tree, that is to say, these forcibly occupied Han female "sex", even if they have a child with the prince, then the child is either executed by the prince for the sake of face, or he is enrolled in Han nationality with his mother.

The harem of the palace is strictly controlled, the selected palace maids are all from the Manchurian Eight Banners, and it is impossible for the Han and the emperor to have children in the pigtail play, and if this happens, then the child will only have a dead end.

And those who have no official position and have an underground status, the female "sex" of the same clan has become the concubine of a powerful and high-ranking official, even if you keep the raw worms, you don't have your share, and you can't take the female "sex" of other clans, so that many Eight Banners soldiers with underground status can only be single.

Shengsheng created a Han people who were not bound by the Eight Banners system, and from the beginning of the Qing Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, the population increased dozens of times.

And the Jurchens themselves had a population of three million at the beginning of the founding of the country, and they were still three million when they were about to perish.

It was precisely because of this that Cao "sex" took a fancy to this that he established the Eight Banners Army.

They are also Han people, and their appearance is only short spots and black spots, and the rest of the Shanyue people, who are no different from the Central Plains people, are not the target of Cao's sex.

It's just to use them to set up a shelf, and they will be incorporated into the Han army for other reasons in the future, and the real target is the natives in Nanyang who are different from the Han people in appearance, civilization, and customs, as well as the Asan people.

Chen Yang came forward and sent the simple bamboo spears used by the garrison soldiers to the auxiliary soldiers, "women" and children, and the two hundred white flag soldiers were also fully replaced, with new strong bows and crossbows, swords, guns, swords and spears, etc., refined weapons, and put on pure white "color" military uniforms.

The military candidate Bao Xing obtained a war horse, a set of shark skin armor dyed white, and a pure white cloak.

For a time, although most of the Baojia cottage was missing most of the young and strong, its strength increased several times.

The white flag of the hydra flag rubbed on the highest part of the Baojia cottage, and there were seven other colors of the flag against the backdrop.

On the other side, above the Xiangjiang River, the whole army of Cao Jun hung up the plain flag, and Cao "sex" took thirty-six fake sons, put on filial piety clothes together, and acted as Hu Chier's filial son and grandson.

The long fleet, playing mournful music, changed to flat-bottomed fighting ships, Mengchong, and walking boats at the upper reaches of the narrower and shallower place, and arrived at Zhenyang, the southernmost part of Guiyang County.

The Zhenyang envoys who greeted them were frightened by the tens of thousands of funeral troops, and they did not dare to move forward one by one.

Zhenyang County is very broken, not ordinary broken, more broken than Cao "sex" has ever seen the most broken county town of Yushi, less than a few hundred meters in circumference, a zhang of rammed earth city wall, collapsed in no less than ten places, not as good as Baojia cottage to defend strongly, has been like fiction.

The houses in the city are dilapidated, there are few people, and the expression is numb, and then I look at the officials who are only more than ten people, the official uniforms on their bodies are tattered, all patches, and their thin bodies are like a flower child.

There are no soldiers in Dahan County, only the county has county soldiers, but a small county town, the county magistrate, the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant above 100 stones, these are the three people, and the main book of 100 stones, the fighting food and Zuo Shi below 100 stones, and the young officials who are not within the establishment of court officials at a lower level, add up to dozens of people, but now there are only more than ten tolerances.

Chen Yang is still in Baojia Cottage, the lord Cao is in grief again, Cao Yong has to be responsible for more than 100,000 soldiers, and Su Shuang is busy with all kinds of property.

Huang Fu Li, as Cao 'sex's senior brother, the nephew of Huang Fu Song, the general of the left chariot, took up the burden of government affairs, Chen Yang's father Chen Zheng, the new Zhenyang chief bookkeeper Wang Harmoni, assisted his right, and the military attachés cooperated.

Looking at these "called Huazi", even Huangfu Li, who was accustomed to seeing "chaos" in the counties and counties of Guanzhong, frowned, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked where the four principals of the original county should be dealt with here: "What about your former county magistrate, former county magistrate, former county lieutenant, and former chief book?" ”

More than a dozen "called Huazi" looked at Huangfu Li, dodging and dodging, not daring to answer.

Huangfu Li shook his head: "Where is Doushi and Zuoshi?" ”

Three people walked out of "Calling Hanako".

A thin man in a Confucian costume full of patches was the first to say: "If you go back to Zunjia, I am copywriter Zuoshi, Yu Kang." ”

Another middle-aged man continued: "I am Zuoshi, Cai Song, who is in charge of hearing lawsuits and paying taxes. ”

The last one was taller and said, "I'm Zuoshi, Chu Nan, who is in charge of the thieves." ”

It seems that the rest of the people are all young officials who are not in the stream.

Huangfu Li thought to himself, and looked at the copywriter Zuoshi and the tax Zuoshi: "Can the two of them understand the text and ink?" ”

"Coarse skin 'hair'."

"Good! Take me to the prefectural temple! ”

As soon as he heard that Huangfu Li was going to the county temple, the "called Huazi" official was entangled again, and he was reluctant to speak for a long time.

"What? Could it be that the county temple was occupied by a strongman? ”

"Not really! Alas! Come with me! Copywriter Sashi sighed and led the way.

The roads in the county are full of potholes, there are stinky ditches with stagnant water, and the ground is full of garbage and feces, exuding a foul smell.

The houses on both sides are also made of bamboo and wood, and the roofs are covered with thatched to protect from the rain, and there is no decent house.

When they arrived at the county office, Huangfu Li and his entourage finally knew why the officials were entangled.
