Manzhong announced the launch of a general counterattack, and all the Tuntian soldiers poured into the city, using bows and arrows, stones, and boiling oil, killing the Jiangxia soldiers who were besieging the city to lose their armor and flee in embarrassment. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, the city gate was wide open, and Guan Hai led two thousand elite horsemen to rush out, rushing to kill.

Huang Zhu and Su Fei were caught off guard, it was difficult to resist, and they were defeated and retreated more than ten miles away before they could stabilize their positions.

Then they counted the men and horses, and found that more than 6,000 people had been lost that day.

Of the original 30,000 horses, only half are now left, and many of them are wounded.

All the heads of the family strongly demanded the withdrawal of troops, but Huang Jian was still stubborn: "My father still has 20,000 elite soldiers, I can ask my father to send troops!" Dare to talk about the death of those who retreat! ”

The heads of those families didn't dare to say anything.

In the evening of the same day, there was news that the Wei generals Wen Ping and Gan Ning led 20,000 horses and horses to break into the hinterland of Jiangxia and raid various Shijiawu forts.

There's no room for error!

The heads of the eight families in Jiangxia County who participated in it couldn't sit still, they didn't greet Huang Jie at all, and led the troops to withdraw overnight!

Man Chong found out from Xizuo that there were only five or six thousand people left in the yellow shooting, and asked Guan Hai to lead five thousand people and horses that night, and the yellow shooting camp was breathed.

Huang Shot and Su Fei were defeated, and led more than 2,000 defeated troops to retreat to Jiangxia County.

These families and Huang Jie don't know what kind of fate awaits them.

……

In the Wancheng conference hall, Wei Yan was still discussing with the lord Bo Dongju.

Wei Yan quickly calmed down his angry state of mind, he couldn't show anything strange in front of Dong Ju, this guy is also a member of the family, it seems that he will have to be wary of him in the future, and there is no need to tell him about the policies that suppress and weaken the family.

Wei Yanxin said, if I can fully control the power of the country like Zhu Yuanzhang in the future, I will never allow any of the following families to have private soldiers and not pay taxes, you have worked hard for me, I will be more tolerant to you at most, so that you can have a rich life, but if you still build an independent kingdom like now, it will be a dream, but unfortunately, that day, I am afraid that it will not be realized until ten years later.

Subsequently, Wei Yan asked, "How many tenant slaves are there in these families?" ”

"There are more than 235,000 tenants, there are more than 9,000 shop guys, the lord, there is also a proposal for the lowly position, since the land has been taken over by the lord and owned by the Wei army, then the tenants will naturally have Wei army to fall, but the more than 9,000 shop guys belong to those hundreds of shops, can they be handed over to the family who bought the shop?" Dong Ju is still actively fighting for the interests of their family.

Wei Yan hid the disgust in his heart, and said with a smile: "A shop is a shop, people are people, and I have never heard of buying and selling shops with additional guys, these guys, too, are considered the trophies of our Wei army, and they also use the auction system."

"Alright then, everything is arranged according to the lord." Dong Ju didn't continue to be reluctant, because he knew that if he put the interests of the family on the high side, the lord might gradually lose trust in him.

Wei Yan continued to ask, "Gong Xi, how many soldiers are there in these seventeen families?" How many are available for adaptation? ”

"They didn't have many family soldiers, they only got more than 50,000 people by forcibly conscripting tenant farmers, and more than 8,000 people died in the attack on Wancheng and the subsequent battle, but if all the tenant farmers were allowed to return to the countryside, there were less than 8,000 left, and according to our criteria for selecting elite soldiers, less than 3,000 people could really be trained into the regular army, and the others could only be incorporated into the Tuntian army."

"What about our casualties?" Wei Yan gradually became less inclined to fight tough battles, because that meant that he had to die a lot of his own people, not only did his strength lose significantly, but he also had to pay a lot of pensions.

Wei Yan didn't want to die by himself, because the pension standard he set was relatively high, and the reason why it was higher was that he hoped that the people below would be brave and not afraid of death when they fought.

"Because the lord acted properly, almost all of them took the most prisoners with the smallest battle damage, and we only lost more than 2,000 people."

"It's a pretty good result."

Dong Ju was a little embarrassed: "Lord, there are still some people who need your orders." ”

"Who?"

"It's those heads of families and their relatives, as well as the families of those who died in the war, these people add up to more than 20,000 people!"

Wei Yan thought for a while and said, "As always, since I promised to let those family heads live, then put them under house arrest, but those men in their family who have the ability to incite people will be executed, and other men who are beginning to be sensible and can remember hatred will be sent to mining." As for those children, they will later open orphanages in Yiyang New Town and Wancheng, send them all to orphanages to raise, and give them the surname Wei, telling them that they are all orphans whose parents died in battle. ”

Dong Ju asked, "Lord, what should I do with those women?" ”

Wei Yan looked at the Wei soldiers who were guarding their posts outside, and saw that many young people's faces were covered with pimples, Wei Yan thought about the 50,000 strong men under his command, and there were not even 1,000 who could marry wives and enjoy the gentleness of women like himself.

Although Wei Yan had already launched a blind date meeting, and he also ordered people to recruit female homeless and poor women everywhere to match the officers and soldiers in the army, but in a short period of time, there were too many monks and few porridges.

When there are no combat and training tasks, these soldiers are full of blood and have nowhere to vent, and when there are no women to vent, many male soldiers have achieved the basic feelings one by one, which is the basic feelings of the military camp that cannot be broken since ancient times.

In addition to arranging a large number of training tasks and combat missions for them, Wei Yan also tried to arrange military missions for them, so as to vent the exuberant energy of these young people, but in fact, the effect was still relatively poor, and many good straight men became beautiful men.

What to do?

Wei Yan suddenly remembered a ridiculous idea, but this idea couldn't come out of the mouth of his lord, so he deliberately asked the knowledgeable Dong Ju: "There are many soldiers in the army who have no wives and concubines, they are full of blood, they have nowhere to vent, there are many lines of infighting and fighting, and even male and male pairs, it is very ugly, I don't know if Gong Xi has any good way to avoid this?" ”

Dong Ju just asked those women how to deal with it, but the lord suddenly asked this question, Dong Ju was quick-witted, a little thought, he knew the intention of the lord, and said with a slight smile: "I opened the country in the Han Dynasty, there was no prostitute, to the time of Emperor Wu, the soldiers were used for many years, the soldiers were running around, less gentle, the morale of the army gradually declined, Emperor Wu was wise, put prostitutes, and waited for the soldiers who had no wife, and the morale rose greatly. My lord, I propose that a battalion be set up in our army to support the wives and daughters of those who are guilty of crimes, in case there are no wives in the army. ”
