Chapter 50 3 Eggs and Eggs Bloom Red and Gorgeous (3)
In order to publicize his "glorious image" and "great deeds", Zhao Kang, who was extremely vain, specially selected hundreds of unmarried boys and girls with first-class appearance, figure and noise, as well as new and old artists who were relatively famous under his rule, and formed a song and dance troupe called "Yansui Town Art Troupe", which equipped them with foot-operated generators, power amplifiers, speakers, and lighting equipment brought from modern times. Specializing in touring in various states, counties, and towns within their own borders.
In order to rehearse various operas, Zhao Kang also specially invited two well-known old bustards from Taiyuan to teach the female employees of the song and dance troupe various operas, dances, musical instruments, etc. As for why not invite Yulin locals? Nima Yulin is poor like this, where is there any high-end atmosphere and a little more high-grade red light district, Zhao Kang has been a major official of Zhengerpin since the day he crossed, and he has never seen what the [brothel] of the Ming Dynasty looks like.
In Fugu County, I saw the office of secret prostitutes under the introduction of Zhao Fugui, and it was almost obvious that Zhao Kang almost collapsed, so he built a grass hut under the corner of the city wall that was ventilated on all sides. The appearance of the staff inside made Zhao Kang want to vomit out the overnight meal, and he had to admire the customers who went to that kind of place to consume, how hungry and thirsty they must be!
What he saw and heard in Fugu County made Zhao Kang full of fear of the red light district of the Ming Dynasty.

There are two flowers, one on each branch. When all major construction sites were under construction, Zhao Kang found a serious problem: northern Shaanxi, which was originally full of refugees, was actually understaffed.
Because Zhao Kang's attitude towards refugees and the way they handled them were different from those in other parts of the Ming Dynasty, not only did the refugees not return to their hometowns, but they also ordered the household officials of the county government to establish household registration and allocate land for the refugees on the spot. As a result, the military households that were originally responsible for guarding the three sides fled with their families and blended into the ranks of refugees, thus breaking away from the military household status that had been carried on them for generations.
For Zhao Kang, of course, it doesn't matter what your status is, of course there is only one kind of refugee, that is, refugees, no matter what is high or low, as long as you are obedient and contribute to the construction of northern Shaanxi, then all of them will be counted according to the good people, if you are a traitor, then it will be embarrassing, the distribution of land will not be your share for the time being, and there is a lack of free miners on the coal mountains in Fugu.
Even Wang Ding, the chief soldier of Yulin, personally ran to Zhao Kang and cried: "Lord Zhao, you can't go on like this anymore, if you continue like this, the military households in Yansui Town will run out, and then there will be no one to guard the Great Wall defense line in Yansui Town......"
Zhao Kang knew from the information obtained in modern times that this king would be a deserter, and a few years later, when Li Zicheng led a large army to Yulin City, this guy would leave all the soldiers and people in Yulin City to flee, and often take air salaries, drink the blood of soldiers, force military households to farm land for his family for free, and occupy tens of thousands of fertile land. Therefore, Zhao Kang has long been very dissatisfied with his appointment as the chief soldier of Yulin.
So he immediately replied unceremoniously: "In the future, all the military households in Yansui Town will be organized into peasant households, and the existing military households will be selected to reorganize the soldiers who can still fight." All logistical and military supplies such as military salaries, grain and grass, weapons, and equipment are all in charge of the governor's yamen, and the border defense of the Great Wall is taken over by the Fugu County militia group. I was wrong, from today onwards, the Fugu County People's League will be renamed the Eighth Route Army. β
Zhao Kang thought that Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Lu, could form his own Tianxiong Army, Sun Chuanting, Sun and Hong Chengchou, and Lord Hong could form their own Qin army, so of course Zhao Kang and Zhao should also form their own "army", as for why it is called the "Eighth Route Army", it is simpler, this is northern Shaanxi, what is it called if it is not called the Eighth Route Army? And the name "Qin Army" has already been taken, if you name it according to the place name "Yansui Army", "Zhenwu Army" or "Hexi Army" or something, Zhao Kang feels that the limitations are too great, compared to the mighty and domineering name of the Eighth Route Army, it is simply weak.
Zhao Kang's words made Wang Ding shocked, this clearly shows that he wants to set up his own rhythm! If you don't have those military households under your hands, then you, the chief military officer of Yulin, can't even be a fart in Yansui Town! He immediately shouted, "Lord Zhao, you don't have the right to do this at all!" Are you trying to rebel? β
Zhao Kang, who was sitting in the lobby of the governor's yamen, waved his hand, and Zhao Fugui took a booklet. Zhao Kang threw it in front of Wang Ding and said: "Over the years, you have been corrupt and perverted the law, eaten empty salaries and drank the blood of soldiers, forced to serve your family, robbed people's daughters, killed people and goods, deceived the world, and smuggled various materials prohibited by the court to Mongolia, now that the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" β
Wang Ding stood up without fear and said, "Lord Zhao, which general soldier of our Ming Dynasty does not eat salary, and which general soldier does not drink the blood of soldiers?" Which of the crimes you mentioned was not committed by the general soldier? Compared with He Renlong, Zuo Liangyu and the like, I can already be regarded as clean and honest as water! Besides, Lord Zhao, as the governor of Yansui, doesn't have the right to remove me from my post as the chief soldier of Yulin, right? β
Zhao Kang lowered his head and cut his nails, shook his head and said, "Sao Nian, you are too naΓ―ve. Indeed, what you do is nothing compared to those people. But I'm sorry, you are working under me, I can't control them, but I can control you. Daniel Zhang and Zhao Liangdong, quickly take down Wang Ding and take off the black yarn on top! β
Daniel Zhang and Zhao Liangdong immediately stepped forward and said, "Yes!" Lord Zhao! After speaking, he immediately pressed Wang Ding, who had not yet reacted, to the ground, tied it tightly, and then took off his black gauze hat and put it in front of Zhao Kang.
Wang Ding wanted to struggle, but was escorted to death by Daniel Zhang and Zhao Liangdong, and the guards he brought had already been taken down by the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army guarding outside the door.
Seeing that the scene had been controlled, Zhao Kang immediately ordered: "Chen Erdian, Li Laoguan, from now on, the two of you will lead the corporal to take over the Yansui border defense, Chen Erdian, you are responsible for the first line of Yanchi, Dingbian, Jingbian, and Hengshan, and Old Officer Li, you are responsible for the first line of Yulin, Shenmu, and Fugu." After the takeover, the military households were organized on the spot to be converted into peasant households, and the fields were cultivated on the spot. The soldiers in the military households who are unwilling to farm and meet the recruitment requirements of our Eighth Route Army will arrange for them to report to Yulin and expand our Eighth Route Army into a guard. β
