Because of the appearance of Ye Xun, the entire Tieling, including Kaiyuan and other large areas, has been relatively stable.

However, although the Tartars are not coming, the people know that this is just a temporary calm, and the Ming Dynasty is no longer able to resist the attack of the Tartars in Liaodong, so if you want to survive, you must stay away from this war-torn place.

In the past, the best place for the people to flee was Shenyang and other big cities, or simply fled into the grassland and Guannei, but when Ye Xun rose strongly, the people changed their minds and rushed to the direction of Tieling.

It is difficult to leave the homeland, even if there is a glimmer of hope, no one wants to leave their hometown to seek a living in a strange place.

The land of Liaodong has been plagued by Nurhachi's Tartar soldiers, and now only a few big cities such as Shenyang are safe, but whether those big cities can take them in is not to say, and the distance is far away, so Tieling has become the first choice of these people.

If there is aerial photography, looking down on the area near Tieling from the air, you can see the people dragging their families on the official roads leading to Tieling, with meager belongings, moving forward with difficulty, and there is no end in sight.

It is said that there is a soldier bear and a bear, and the bear and bear are in a nest, and Ye Xun, a magical eunuch, has been out of Tieling, and even the waist of the soldier with Tieling has hardened.

After knowing that a large number of refugees were coming, Ye Xun gave an order to the scout camp and sent additional manpower to protect the fleeing people left and right to ensure their safety.

And with Ye Xun's tough backer, when encountering sporadic Jurchen scouts, these Ming army scouts even dared to take the initiative, you must know that in the past, they didn't even dare to think about it.

Although Gao Ying had persuaded Ye Xun not to accept refugees as much as possible, after all, Tieling City was too small to accommodate too many people.

But Ye Xun has Ye Xun's own thoughts, seeing that spring plowing is about to begin, Liaodong lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of vast land, is it just to let these lands go on like this?

You must know that the black soil in the north is the treasure of the soil, although the yield is not as high as in the south, but the crops grown are more nutritious, once the cultivated land forms a scale, it can not only supply the army, but even sell to the south in exchange for military funds.

Of course, this is only Ye Xun's initial idea, and there is still a long way to go to accomplish this goal.

In addition, although Tieling City can't accommodate too many people, it can be expanded! Isn't it a ready-made labor force for so many refugees! At the same time, the city is in ruins, where there is no need for manpower?

It is with these ideas that Ye Xun encourages refugees to come, there is no free lunch in the world, there is a reward for paying, and this principle is suitable for use there.

After placing Ma Lin, Ye Xun called Cao Bianjiao over, and this steel knife must be sharpened often to become sharper and sharper.

"Change! Do you want to kill the Tartars? ”

Hearing Ye Xun ask, Cao Bianjiao couldn't help but be overjoyed, of course his ambition is not to be a personal soldier, and to crisscross the battlefield is what he hopes for in life.

Immediately possessed and knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "Father-in-law order!" The change will definitely live up to the expectations of the father-in-law."

Ye Xun stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "There is no urgency to kill people, and the Tartar climate has been completed, how can you do it alone?" I now give you a task, which is to recruit brave men and form a sharp knife battalion, this sharp knife battalion is under your command, and in the future, it will be like a sharp knife on the battlefield, piercing the heart of the enemy, I wonder if you have this confidence? ”

Listening to Ye Xun's words, Cao Bianjiao couldn't help but be stunned, he never expected that Ye Xun would give him such an important task just after he arrived at Ye Xun's side, what a great trust this is!

The Sharp Knife Battalion, as the name suggests, is just like the trapping camp and the backslaught army in ancient times, and must go first in every battle, the danger is great, but it is also a great glory.

Cao Bianjiao is young and vigorous, and he is the age when he is eager to establish a meritorious career, so it can be said that Ye Xun's proposal completely matches Cao Bianjiao's appetite.

For a while, Cao Bianjiao only felt that the blood in his body seemed to be boiling, and regardless of Ye Xun's obstruction, he turned over and knelt down again, and said loudly: "The last general will swear to follow his father-in-law to the death and be the sharpest knife in his father-in-law's hand."

When Ye Xun first heard Cao Bianjiao's name, he only remembered that their uncle and nephew were famous generals in the late Ming Dynasty, and if they kept this person by their side, over time, they would definitely be their right-hand men.

When he was drinking with Ma Lin just now, Ye Xun suddenly thought that although his descendant team was established, he still lacked a fist army, remembering that Cao Bianjiao in history was one of the few generals who defeated Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng, and it was a pity that such a person made him follow him every day now.

It was precisely because of this idea that Ye Xun said this to Cao Bianjiao after drinking Ma Lin.

The soldier dies for his confidant, and Cao Bianjiao is now thinking about it.

According to Ye Xun's idea, there are not many soldiers in the elite, and Tieling currently has limited troops, so the number of soldiers in the Sharp Knife Battalion is tentatively set at 200, and it will be increased in the future depending on the situation.

After discussing the selection of soldiers and training with Cao Bianjiao, he handed over the token to Cao Bianjiao and asked him to use the token to pick people.

Tieling can now be said to be Ye Xun's word, all orders are from him, especially in terms of mobilizing troops, no one is allowed to transfer a soldier or a pawn without permission.

After Cao Bianjiao left, Ye Xun sat on the chair and couldn't help but sigh, although he had divine power to protect his body, he was still a little tired after a busy day.

Just as he was about to rest for a while, he went to the back house to ask the young ladies to massage him, when the guards came to report, and Han Ping asked to see him.

After Ye Xun allocated special funds to the weapons workshop to improve the working and living conditions of craftsmen, whether it was a weapon workshop or a gunpowder workshop, they had already produced all kinds of equipment and gunpowder at full capacity, and the workload of a few days could catch up with the past few months.

At the same time, Ye Xun also told Han Ping that he wanted Han Ping to tell the craftsmen not only to produce the current weapons and firearms, but also to increase the research and development of new weapons and firearms.

Ye Xun has always believed that the wisdom of working people is infinite, and as long as they are given enough motivation, they will continue to present surprises.

Seeing that it was getting late outside, Han Ping came at this time, there must be something.

Ye Xun didn't dare to expect Han Ping to come up with good things so quickly, but people still had to see it.

Soon, Han Ping walked in under the guidance of the guards, bowed down, and said, "Disturb my father-in-law's rest, my father-in-law forgive me."

"Huh! It's okay, we don't have so many stinky problems, and we haven't eaten at this hour, right? Just right, eat with our family."

Ye Xun said that he was going to order someone to prepare dinner, this is a habit, only by mingling with his subordinates, his subordinates will be more willing to be sympathetic to you.

Han Ping was really moved, but he was not good at words, and said busily: "Don't dare to disturb the father-in-law's meal, report something to the father-in-law, and leave after speaking."

Without waiting for Ye Xun to say anything, Han Ping continued: "In the afternoon, a Shanxi businessman named Wang Dengku found his subordinates, and he said that he wanted to donate a batch of money and grain for military use, and wanted to use this as a rank for promotion, and asked his father-in-law for an official and a half-job."

"Wang Dengku?"

Hearing this name, Ye Xun's brows couldn't help frowning...
