Sure enough, after Dol rolled back to Shengjing, he didn't even have a chance to enter the city, and was directly ordered by Huang Taiji to let him reflect in the lama temple outside the city.

Dolgon had no choice but to excuse himself, explaining the reason why he had let the flag men rotate back to rest and retreat. But Huang Taiji was still not satisfied, and issued an order to let him discuss the guilt himself. Normally, the Eight Banners Baylor jointly discussed the guilt, but this time he let him discuss the guilt himself, not to say that there was much forgiveness for him, but more like a trap. If he said it lightly, it would be a bad attitude to admit his guilt, and if he said it heavily, if Huang Taiji really agreed, wouldn't he be pitting himself?

But Azig was right, even if Huang Taiji was the emperor, he didn't dare to really treat him to Dolgon. The three brothers have been in control of the two white flags for more than ten years, and the two white flags, in their Amanurhachi era, were the two yellow flags, the most strong and strong, and the population was large. If Huang Taiji really wanted to use this matter to deal with them, then the Eight Banners would be at risk of splitting.

So Dorgon let go of it, and negotiated a capital crime for himself.

And Huang Taiji was not confused, and the punishment given to Dolgon was a fine of 10,000 taels of silver, two Niu Lu, and demoted to the king of the county. It not only showed his magnanimity, but also punished Dorgon a little, so that this obedient little brother continued to serve him. Now is the time to employ people, and it is far from the moment when you can cut the feudal domain.

Jierharang, who was in Yizhou City, obeyed Huang Taiji's will very much, and began to continue to advance to Jinzhou, preparing to besiege Jinzhou according to Huang Taiji's intentions.

Qi County, outside the city of Beidaying.

Li Yan, Li Mou, and Li Zhong all came here to greet Bai Shixiong, who had returned from buying horses in Shanxi.

"Just a few horses?" Li Mu looked at the six skinny Mongolian horses that were grazing and asked dissatisfiedly.

Bai Shixiong explained: "There are horses in Shanxi, and they are not expensive, twenty taels of silver each, all of which are good Mongolian horses from outside Cyprus. Although he is not big, he can move things on his shoulders, and he is not slow to run, and he has good endurance. ”

"Then why don't you buy more and come back?" Li Yan asked.

Bai Shixiong said: "It's not that I don't want to buy it, it's that I can't bring it back if I buy it." These six horses were brought back from the mountain path. When he was in Luoyang, he was almost robbed by the official army. There are also the bandits on the road, if it weren't for the fact that the bandits rode donkeys and mules, and couldn't catch up with us, let alone these horses, the lowly people wouldn't have come back. ”

"Is the security in Shanxi okay?" Li Zhong asked.

Bai Shixiong replied: "It's okay. The merchants had a good relationship with the government, so they naturally protected the merchants. ”

Li Yan instructed Bai Shixiong: "You should rest for three days first. After that, he asked the stables to take good care of these horses, which were not well cared for, and I was afraid that they would be wasted.

"This thing is done, even if you have money, you can't buy horses, and the cavalry is hopeless for the time being." Li Mu said disappointedly.

Li Yan said: "Don't stop training, we still have to continue to select cavalry." It is better to let people wait for horses than for horses. Now that we have trained all the cavalry, as long as we have horses, we can fight directly. ”

"yes, got it." Li Mu nodded in agreement.

Li Yan asked Sun Sifu, "Are all those big families here?" ”

Sun Sifu hurriedly sent someone to ask, and when they came, only two big families in the city came, and the others had not yet arrived.

Li Yan did not stop, but walked towards the city. When they were halfway there, a soldier came running and reported that all the big merchants had arrived and were waiting in the barracks of the city.

When Li Yan and the others returned to the barracks, they saw that all the wealthy merchants who had rushed to the school were standing on the edge of the school field, watching the soldiers training on the school field.

On the school grounds, the pikemen were training to stab, and in front of them was a row of straw men, and the soldiers lined up to stab their spears out at the command of the captain.

"Thorn!" The captain commanded.

"Kill!" A whole platoon of pikemen roared in unison, stabbing the spears into the chest and abdomen of the straw man in front of him, and the straw man made a "poof" and "poof" sound. Then the pikeman took the spear back and brought down bunches of straw from the straw man.

"Turn right! Stand by in the back row! Let's go! The captain commanded loudly.

The soldiers swerved to the right, and then walked to the last platoon with neat steps, led by the platoon leader. The pikemen in the back row took two steps forward, preparing for their stabbing shots.

After every stabbing blow, those big families subconsciously shuddered. They think that Li Yan is demonstrating to them, these people are those straw people, if they don't obey, they will be shot to death.

Li Yan arched his hand to these big families and said, "Everyone, you are slacking off. Li Mu is busy with military affairs, so I have kept you waiting, please bear with me. ”

The big families all bowed their hands and said: "General Li is polite, polite." ”

Li Yan invited the big families to sit in the lobby, but he didn't see Zhang Dianshi. So he frowned and asked, "What about Zhang Dianshi?" Why didn't you come? ”

Sun Sifu replied: "Zhang Dianshi's family said that Zhang Dianshi was sick and it was inconvenient to come. ”

Li Yan nodded and said loudly: "Then forget it, he missed such a good opportunity, it is his own loss." ”

The other big families didn't know why, they looked at each other, and they didn't know what Li Yan meant. They didn't think that Li Yan would have any good intentions, otherwise how would they let them watch those wolf-like soldiers train?

"Ladies and gentlemen," Li Yan said, "I want to give you a chance to make money by calling you here today. Although food is expensive now, our county is not short of food. Elsewhere, the roads are unsafe and don't sell for much. So, I want everyone to raise some cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks and other domestic animals and poultry. Everyone is a solid family, no better than ordinary people, and there is no surplus food at home, so they should be able to support it. You can rest assured that Li will buy all of them. What do you think? ”

After listening to Li Yan's words, the rich people below all started talking. Do people like them still use poultry and livestock to make money? That's what inferior people do. They have some money, which one is not used to buy land, build houses, and open shops? Which one raises those things?

Li Yan originally wanted people outside the city to raise them, but the potatoes were only successfully planted on a trial basis, and they now have no extra food to feed these poultry and livestock. Why do you have to wait until next year, after potatoes are planted in large quantities, you can start raising. This time vacancy will be topped by these big households.

Although he trained the soldiers, although the meat for the soldiers to eat was relatively small, with the expansion of the scale of the troops, the demand was not small. Always buy back from Kaifeng, and the cost is not small.

"General Li, this," Boss Wang, who opened the grain store, arched his hand and said, "The villain will donate some grain to General Li." These poultry and livestock, it's okay to raise a few at home to eat, and supply them to the general, I'm afraid it won't work. If there is a plague, it will all have to be lost. ”

"Yes, please forgive General Lee." The other wealthy also gave up.

Li Yan said helplessly: "Li is not donating with you, he really wants to interact with your interests and share weal and woe." Li's purchase price is absolutely fair, as for whether to raise it or not, how much to raise, you can just set it yourself, and Li does not interfere. Okay, so I won't take up your time, so please go back. ”
