The 5,000-strong Tubo tribesmen numbered a lot, but the Yongle City had just been built, and the barracks for the soldiers stationed in the city were temporarily returned to these Tibetan herdsmen.

A meal of mutton soup and cakes with coarse grains made countless Tibetan herdsmen extremely emotional, and even more shed tears, shouting long life for the king.

The shouts of many herdsmen made Qian Heng's forehead break out in cold sweat.

What is the king? What is my lord? Where does it come from?

Which of these words was heard by Zhao Ji, it was a capital crime of seeking power and usurping the throne!

Seeing Qian Heng's appearance in a cold sweat, Wu Song hurriedly shouted to stop the bursts of shouts.

After his voice was suppressed, Wu Song called the dozen or so tribal leaders and hurriedly gave a few orders.

There was not much time, and everyone shouted again, "Thank you for the favor of the host, thank you for the kindness of the young master!" ”

Hearing this shout, Qian Heng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

At this time, Wu Song came back, "Young master, these herdsmen originally believed in the king of Tubo at that time, and in their opinion, the one who could keep them fed and clothed was the king who saved the world!" ”

After understanding the reason, Qian Heng repeatedly instructed him not to shout like this, it would affect his net worth.

Wu Song also knew that this was not appropriate, and of course he would make detailed arrangements.

It took two full days to register, with the assistance of Wu Song and the dozen or so tribal leaders, that Qin Hui registered all the Tibetan herdsmen who came this time.

Qin Hui handed over the roster, "Lord Qian, there are a total of 5,326 of these herdsmen, including 1,310 old and young women, 106 old and young women, 520 women, and more than 680 young children, and the rest are all young and strong men. ”

Qian Heng didn't expect that the proportion of young and strong people recruited this time was so high, and similarly, this proportion also reflects a very direct cruel reality, the living conditions of this group of herdsmen are extremely poor, otherwise the elimination ratio of the elderly and young children will not be so high.

More than 4,000 young and strong, this group of manpower, to operate the pastures in the entire Suide Army's territory, is enough.

Of course, Qian Heng would not arrange it like this.

Qian Heng's goal is to plot the Mingtang River area in the north of the mountain.

In addition, among the 10,000 soldiers in the Suide Army, there are still more than 8,000 people missing, so many young and strong people are bound to recruit some of them to be trained into elite soldiers in the Xiang Army.

Thinking of this, Qian Heng instructed, "Wu Er, listen well, I will give you a quota of 3,000 conscriptions, as long as you are young and strong, you have the first consideration of riding and archery, and tell them that anyone who joins my Suide Army and becomes a member of the army can't help but take care of himself, and the whole family can also be exempted from taxes, in addition, everyone can get a load of food every year!" ”

Qian Heng's condition is not high, but for these poor people in Tubo, it has a fatal attraction.

"Also, if you don't have the conditions to enlist, don't be envious, the rest can become the herdsmen hired by my Qian family, as long as you help with grazing and work, you will have an income to earn, and in addition, the people who work for me will also eat and drink!"

Qian Heng's angry instructions shocked several people on the side who listened to them.

This is 5,000 Tibetan tribesmen, and they all saw it yesterday, and the amount of food these herdsmen has is not ordinary. Listening to the meaning of Qian Heng's words, he took care of the food and drink of more than 5,000 people.

Nominally, he was selected as a soldier in the Suide Army, but what he actually ate and drank was provided by Qian Heng out of his own pocket. The rest is for Qian Heng's family, of course, Qian Heng is responsible for food and clothing.

The food and drink consumption of these 5,000 people is considered a trivial matter if it is managed for a few days, but if it is managed all the time, it will be an extremely terrifying consumption to think about.

Wu Song took the order, and together with Yang Zaixing, went down to make arrangements, Qin Hui looked worried, "Lord Qin, so many expenditures are a big problem!" ”

Qian Heng glanced at Qin Hui and looked surprised, "Yes, why don't you go and help Wu Er?" ”

Qin Hui realized that there was still his own business here, and he also knew that Qian Heng's order could not be refused, so he hurriedly got up and left.

Qian Heng's eyes fell on Wu Jue again, and he suddenly laughed, "Jin Qing, you can go too, in the process of recruiting the sergeant of the Xiang Army, you need to check it, at least ensure that the sergeant's ability and physique must pass, in addition, I can allow you a quota of eight hundred elite soldiers, and you and Tang Qing can divide it by yourself when the time comes!" ”

The rest of the words, without Qian Heng saying more, Wu Jue can also understand that the herdsmen of the Tibetan tribes, whether it is physical strength or tenacity, are not comparable to ordinary Song soldiers.

Qian Heng's order was to give Brother Wu Yu some benefits. After all, Qian Heng still has to count on the Wu family brothers to help him fight in the Western Xia Military Division, and having a group of powerful subordinates under his command is the best thing to rely on.

Qian Heng's series of orders made Han Shizhong envious.

Han Shizhong licked his lips, "Lord Qian, you have so many Tubo troops under your hands, how about letting the last general also choose some personal soldiers?" ”

Qian Heng smiled, with a bit of ridicule in his eyes, "Liangchen, it's not that I don't give you face, if I agree to your request, can you bring it back to the Yanzhou army?" ”

As soon as Qian Heng said this, Han Shizhong's face immediately changed.

Qian Heng did this in the Suide army, completely because the mountains here are high and the emperor is far away, and there is a serious shortage of places in the army, so he will recruit so many Tubo troops to enlist.

In the Great Song Army, there were very few foreign generals, and even if there were occasional foreign generals, they were extremely untrusted. When Han Shizhong said this, at most, he was just envious of Wu Jue.

Thinking that he couldn't recruit the strong Tubo subordinates, Han Shizhong was very helpless.

Looking at Han Shizhong's aggrieved face, Qian Heng suddenly laughed, "Why can't Liangchen figure it out?" ”

As soon as Qian Heng said this, Han Shizhong knew that Qian Heng must have a way to help him, so he immediately became excited, "Please also ask Lord Qian to teach me!" ”

Qian Heng smiled, "This is also simple, you also said it, what you want to choose is a pro-soldier, and you don't want them to join the Western Army, within ten, it doesn't seem to be a violation, right?" ”

As soon as Qian Heng's words fell, Han Shizhong immediately stood up from his seat and bowed deeply to Qian Heng with an excited face, "Thank you Lord Qian for your advice, then Shizhong will go to choose his own soldiers first!" ”

At this time, only Dong Qing was left in front of him.

"Dong Qing, tell me, what do you think?"

A few days ago, Qian Heng discussed with Dong Qing how to restart the Silk Road.

Dong Qing also came up with his own plan after a few days of careful consideration.

"Back to the east, although the subordinates don't understand what you are talking about the Silk Road, but if you want to do business with many Yi people in the West, the place where the Suide army is located is not a suitable place, in addition, I have heard some Liao generals in Datong Mansion say that the Wuthorn Sea, where the Weifu Military Division of the Western Xia Black Mountain is located, is a very suitable place, but the Xixia people have not managed it well, if it were not for the decline of the Liao State now, the Liao State would have used troops to seize the Wuthorn Sea City in Western Xia."
