PS: Thank you to the deacon of the sunset chasing the floating clouds for his reward and support, but I can't repay it, so I have to add more!

Excluding the soldiers and horses of the Seed Family and the Yao Family, almost 40,000 forbidden troops were left under the control of the Wild Wolf Army, and Yongxing City was handed over to Lin Chong.

Xiagou, Dongkuo and Yongxing finally became one with the Great Song Dynasty, but the old species sat in Yanzhou, and then the southeast was Yao Gu's uncle and nephew, the south was the small species, and the north had a fold to seek and fold the Yan.

The entire Northwest Xuanfu Xingyuan is temporarily concurrently served by Cai You, the deputy envoy, and he has no prejudice against Lin Chong, but has some old feelings.

The transportation envoys of the Wild Wolf Army settled in these houses, watching their every move inside and out, ensuring that Lin Chong had no worries.

After leveling the Western Army, Lin Chong could finally free up his hands to prepare the party's plan.

The party has a population of millions, a standing army of 200,000, and then all the people are soldiers. As long as you can ride a horse, shoot a bow and shoot arrows, you will be drafted into the army when you fight.

Therefore, if you want to fight the idea of the party, it is really untenable if there are fewer troops. No matter how powerful your firearms unit is, you will at least need someone to guard the territory you have taken down.

The Wild Wolf Army now only has 10,000 soldiers, and there are only 5,000 people who can go out to carry out tasks when they go out to stay in the troops. It is unthinkable that only 5,000 people will travel for nearly 1,000 miles in terms of near-primitive logistics and transportation conditions.

Because Lin Chong hoped to complete his work in one battle and completely solve the problem of the party, there were two main ways to settle the situation in the first war.

The first is to engage in a decisive battle with its main forces and crush them completely, completely crushing their armed forces. Secondly, the implementation of special operations, long-distance raids on Xingqing Mansion, control Li Qianshun and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and the soldiers will not be bloodless.

There are also nine party member cities in the vicinity, which are all troubles, and Yongxing is also newly included in the jurisdiction. Three cities, nearly 200,000 people, for a young regime, everything is in the process of exploration and progress.

Fortunately, there are 40,000 forbidden troops in the imperial court who are serving hard labor, and for two whole years, Lin Chong and others will naturally not let go of this opportunity. They are all skilled soldiers, as long as they are recruited with their hearts, not to mention more, 10,000 horses can be used by me, and they can fight when they are pulled up.

However, Lin Chong did not abuse them, he took care of food, drink, and housing, and each person still had a salary of thirty wen per day. For the sake of humane management, half of the money was sent to the families of these people by hand, and letters were brought back.

This move made the soldiers of the forbidden army who were doing hard labor feel at ease, and they felt that the work was quite good. I have enough to eat, I sleep warmly, and I get no less salary than the forbidden army's salary, but I am just tired from working every day.

Suddenly, one day, Sun Erniang drove an airship to the labor camp, in addition to showing the operation of the airship in public.

During this period, Sun Erniang invited a few lucky people to take a ride on a whim and go to the sky for a tour. There are those who are excited, there are those who are afraid of crying, in short, it is a joyful theme activity.

Then, Sun Erniang played a signboard to recruit flying warriors and recruited fifty people in a targeted manner. Applicants are required to be physically better, responsive, able to read and write, and have no bad habits.

With such high conditions, the treatment offered is also staggering.

Qualified training, 10 salaries per month, and 5 days of vacation per month. You can also bring your family members to stay in the pilot's quarters designated by the military. This is a single-family house with a new decoration, and it has a face.

Many people still have a lot of misunderstandings about the Wild Wolf Army, but there are still quite a few soldiers who come to try their luck with the idea of trying their luck, and this time thousands of people came to apply, and finally Sun Erniang selected fifty people to take away.

The sergeant who did not apply for the recruitment could only blame himself for his bad luck and regretted it again and again. Unexpectedly, after ten years, the monkey's special combat team also came to recruit, and five hundred were needed.

The hard labor battalion began to get excited again, and the special combat team was not as good as the pilots, but the salary and food were also very good, and the opportunity for meritorious service was much greater than that of ordinary soldiers. In the end, among the 5,000 recruits, the monkey returned with 500 high-quality newcomers.

A month later, those pilots and special combat personnel who had already turned into regular soldiers took advantage of their vacations to return to the hard labor camps, which immediately detonated everyone's attention.

These hard laborers, who had been recruited into the Wild Wolf Army a month ago, were now well-dressed, well-equipped, and full of spirit, and they were completely the elite of the elite.

The soldiers of the forbidden army have seen with their own eyes that the wolf army is a conscientious army that counts its words, and as a soldier of the forbidden army who is forced to do hard labor, they are not discriminated against or abused.

Marquis Lin's army is really amazing, I just don't know when it will come again. If we can recruit again, we will definitely go to the field, and we have good skills.

Perhaps it was the sincerity of these soldiers that moved the heavens, and after ten years, the firearms unit needed to recruit two thousand people.

In this large-scale recruitment, the conditions have been greatly relaxed, and basically they have good eyesight, are strong and powerful, and are not thorns, and they are all included in the recruitment list.

In this way, wave after wave of recruitment, these captives who did hard labor, their mentality was completely relaxed, whether they were working or recruiting the various branches of the wolf army, they were full of a sense of expectation, and the atmosphere of the hard labor camp was also very good.

Pei Xuan's informant provided a number of clues, and many skilled veterans were unwilling to apply for recruitment at all, but enjoyed the service of recruits in the hard labor camp with peace of mind.

Lin Chong thought about it for a while, and said with a smile, "Then we will recruit mercenaries, aren't there still nine cities that have not moved, you can try it now." ”

Therefore, a notice appeared at the gate of the hard labor camp that this attack on Youzhou required the recruitment of 1,000 mercenaries.

The notice claimed that as long as Youzhou could be captured, the seized money and property would be split between the two sides, and the human weapons could also be converted into money and handed over to the Wolf Army. Even if a mercenary dies in battle, he can still receive 30 yuan of maintenance and send it to his family.

Many people think that this is not bad, at least they don't have to work all day in the hard labor camp, and if they are lucky, they can make a profit. Eventually, five or six veterans, with their own gangs, became the first mercenaries.

After these people were tested for ten days, and after weeding out those fools, the mercenaries' morale became higher and higher. At the end of the ten-day intensive training, these high-tech veterans were all eager to try.

Lin Chong gave Han Shizhong 2,000 men and horses, and brought mercenaries, a total of 4,000 people. Han Shizhong set out from Yongxing City at night, arrived in Youzhou at dawn the next day, and after a short rest, he immediately started the war, Han Shizhong was the main attack, and the mercenaries took multiple surprise attacks. By the end of the afternoon, three of the four gates had been broken, and the city lord and the main officials were all captured.

On the third day of the capture of Youzhou City, the mercenaries received the agreed money, as well as the maintenance of those who died in the battle during the attack on Youzhou. On average, each of these mercenaries earned no less than a hundred.

After Han Shizhong pointed out that he would attack the remaining eight border cities of the party one by one in the near future, he formed mercenary teams one after another to make a fortune.
