Gao Yihuan and his entourage came to the front of the barracks with their hooves clattering, and saw that on the path outside the barracks, a mighty team was running in circles around the barracks in the snow.

Gao Yihuan reined in the war horse, this is exactly the Western Wei State in the southern Jin Dynasty to appease the bandits and rebels, they will be intensively trained for three months, good quality will be incorporated into the C battalion, bad can only be incorporated into the D species, and the turn is for local security and supplementary troops.

Now that the rule of the Qing court in Hedong has collapsed, the Western Wei has not completely taken over, there is a vacuum of local power, heroes from all walks of life, ghosts, snakes and gods have swarmed, and the Hedong rebels and Tukou combined, I am afraid that there are four or five hundred thousand people.

These people are not engaged in production, and if they are not dealt with as soon as possible, they will inevitably harm the locality.

Now the whole Hedong is roughly divided into several fast, Taiyuan City is occupied by Azig, Taiyuan Mansion and the north of Pingding Prefecture are controlled by Jiang Xiang and Li Jiantai, and the two of them have incorporated the rebel army, and there are about 1560,000 people who obey their orders.

Of the remaining state capitals, those located on major transportation routes or important passes, were controlled by the Wei army.

Those prefectures and counties located in the corners of the country, such as those in the Luliang Mountains to the west, were occupied by the rebels and bandits.

The current strategy of the Western Wei State is to carry out the integration first, and if it cannot be absorbed, then the sword and the soldiers will meet each other and quickly exterminate it.

At this time, more than 3,000 new soldiers, one by one, panting and running, the first general saw Gao Yihuan and his party, and hurriedly shouted to his subordinates, "Keep running, run one more lap, and go back to the camp to eat!" ”

After he explained, he broke away from the team, ran over to Gao Yihuan, ran to the front, and saluted on one knee: "The minister Wang Guangtai sees the king!" ”

"Good work!" Gao Yihuan smiled and nodded, then looked at the soldiers who ran in circles, and asked with a smile, "How is the training of the new soldiers?" ”

"Back to the king, these new pawns basically don't know anything, and they have no discipline, but they are all crop men, relatively honest, and their physical strength is okay, practice for a few months, see blood, and their abilities should be between C and D."

"Hardship and hard work are the characteristics of the vast majority of people." Gao Yihuan nodded, and asked again, "Are there any deserters?" ”

Wang Guangtai said: "Some escaped, mainly the leaders of some bandits, they were used to being free and scattered, they couldn't stand the restraints, and more than a dozen people escaped. Ordinary soldiers can have enough to eat, have land, and have money, and most of them will not be deserters. ”

Gao Yihuan bowed slightly, "Those who escape must be arrested, these people are unstable factors." ”

"The Judge Advocate General's Department has sent people to hunt them down, but the feudal government is not in full control of Hedong, so it is more difficult to capture them all!"

Gao Yihuan thought about it for a while, and no longer mentioned the stubble, but explained: "If the intensity of the training is relatively large, the food must keep up, so that the soldiers can not only eat enough, but also occasionally see the meat." ”

Wang Guangtai's face showed joy, "The ministers and soldiers thank the king for his kindness!" ”

Gao Yihuan smiled, "Okay, then you can continue to practice!" If you need something, feel free to ask the lonely king to mention it, or find happy hao, and he will report to the lonely king. ”

"Got it!" Wang Guangtai immediately clenched his fists, "The minister retired first." ”

With that, he trotted away and continued to train his soldiers.

Gao Yihuan and his entourage entered the camp, looked at it casually, and said happily and proudly, who was in charge of the military quartermaster on the side: "The king, the minister transferred five thousand tents from Guanzhong, plus the camp tent of the captured Qing army, which is enough for the king to recruit 100,000 troops in Hedong, but there are still some gaps in armor and weapons, and the minister has already sent people to Huguang to transfer them, and it will probably take a while to transport them." ”

Gao Yihuan bowed slightly, entered a military tent, looked at the soldiers' bunks, reached out and touched the bed, there was thatch underneath, and the quilt was very thin.

"It's freezing now, this can't be done!" Gao Yihuan picked up the quilt and said with a frown.

"King, the reserves in Guanzhong have been transported, and the military department can't do anything now, after all, there are 100,000 troops, and the demand for materials is too great."

Gao Yihuan also knew this, and changed his tone and said: "Didn't you copy out two million taels, spend more silver, collect it from the people, buy it in Huguang and Jiangnan, in short, find a way to solve it." ”

The Wei army broke Jiexiu, Lingshi and other places, and after interrogation, it was found that the Fan family and other families really began to transfer their wealth to Zhangjiakou after the Wei army broke through the Pujin Pass.

Zhangjiakou was an important gateway for the Qing court to trade with the Mongols, and the Fan family moved here, apparently not optimistic about the Qing army, so that they could flee to Guanwai when the situation was bad.

However, although the Fan family and other families transferred a lot of wealth in advance, the Wei army still dug out more than two million taels from several cellars.

This made Gao Yihuan salivate for Zhangjiakou, but he had no way to reach out to Zhangjiakou at this time, so he could only raise it for a while and take it later.

The group walked around the camp, and Gao Yihuan led everyone to leave the barracks and run to Fenyang City.

At this time, the sky and the earth were covered with snow, and there were no people on the road, but there were wisps of smoke in the villages on both sides of the official road, indicating that the lives of the people had returned to normal.

Not long after, Gao Yihuan and his entourage rushed to Fenyang City, but a lot of people gathered outside the city gate, they gathered in front of the notice, and some people shook their heads and read: "The king of Great Wei told the elders of Hedong Township that the Tartars have not been removed, and the bandits in Hedong have risen again." In order to get rid of the Tartars and protect the villagers, the Great Wei Dynasty specially recruited strong men from all over the world, and heroes from all over the country were soldiers. Those who are recruited and selected can get ten acres of military land, tax exemption for three years, and hope that the heroes will actively apply for recruitment, defend their homeland, drive out the Tartars, and hold great things together. ”

Gao Yihuan was wearing regular clothes, and the people didn't know his identity, and he hit his horse into the city without attracting much attention.

In the city, several Wei soldiers stood with spears, and a small official sat at the table, and there was already a long queue in front of him.

On the other side, several officers were testing the recruited non-commissioned soldiers, as long as they were not missing arms and legs, and could lift a fifty-pound stone lock, they would be considered qualified.

Of course, if you have special skills, you can also play with the big sword and spear on the weapon rack, although the army does not particularly rely on personal bravery, but the brave will undoubtedly be more likely to come out.

At this time, a man easily raised the stone lock with one hand, which attracted a burst of applause, and then he danced the big knife vigorously, which made the test soldiers very impressed.

"Good knife technique, write down his name in Bingce!"

After Gao Yihuan passed the investigation, he did not stop the horse, hundreds of thousands of Wei troops, full of talents, a man with some ability, could not cause him special treatment.

"King, looking at the posture, 100,000 troops, it won't take long to recruit them!" Chen Mingxia smiled.

Gao Yihuan was also very satisfied with the speed of fundraising, "I can raise money so quickly, in fact, I have to thank Tartar." If it weren't for the Qing army's looting too hard and the people had no surplus food, how could so many people join the army. ”
