Yanzhou City.

After the whole army, the three large battalions in Yanzhou City have launched intensive training, and the patrol and the city wall are carried out by the Huolin army and the government army on duty.

In the early morning, all kinds of passwords and trumpets came from various large battalions, and Xiang Yan, the sentry commander of the Nufeng battalion, was also one of the instructors, responsible for the training of 200 archers in one fruit. Unlike the government army, the government army has only 150 people at the first outpost, while the Huolin army has 200 people at the first outpost.

Xiang Yan held the long whip and slowly walked in front of the queue of two hundred archers, his cold gaze swept over the faces of the archers like knives, and almost none of the two hundred archers dared to look at him! Although these archers were all drawn from the government army and battalion soldiers, and they had seen blood and killed people, they still didn't dare to look at Xiang Yan.

"Listen to Lao Tzu fucking well, you will do what Lao Tzu says later, if anyone is disobedient, I don't need to say much about the end, you also know that the whip in my hand is not for fun. Also, no one wants to be a deserter, there are still dozens of bloodstained heads hanging outside the camp gate. ”

"All of them are standing up, put down their left hand, and hold a bow in their right hand! Hold your head high, right...... Don't move! ”

Before the words fell, an archer couldn't help but reach out and scratch two because of the itching on his face, and he couldn't help but say anything, and the long whip in his hand was thrown out like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, only to hear a crisp sound of the horn, and the archer's face was already covered with a bloody mark, and the archer was in pain, and suddenly covered his face with his hands and screamed like a pig.

"Don't howl! Fuck me up! Xiang Yan shouted: "If you don't get up again, die!" As he spoke, he pulled out the long knife at his waist.

The archer was suddenly silenced, and immediately straightened his body, but the expression on his face was distorted, as if it was in pain, and the rest of the archers also looked shocked.

Xiang Yan snorted and continued his lecture, this set is actually a training method arranged by Zhao Xun for each elementary school, without him, it is just a military posture.

When it comes to military training, knights say that it is difficult and difficult, and it is actually simple to say that it is simple. Especially for these newly recruited soldiers, regardless of whether they can fight or not, as long as they are forbidden to train them, it is equivalent to more than half of the success.

Xiang Yan shook the long whip in his hand and said sharply: "Listen to the fuck, what Lao Tzu says later, you have to do it, Lao Tzu said to the east, you are not allowed to go west, Lao Tzu asked you to pull the bow, you have to obediently pull the bow, the old man said to release the arrow, you can fucking release the arrow, do you hear clearly?" ”

"Hear me clearly!" Two hundred archers agreed.

Such a scene can be seen everywhere in the three large battalions, one squad after another is training.

Governor's Mansion.

The Duwei Mansion used to be the office of the highest military governor in Yanzhou Prefecture, but now it has become the base camp of the Huolin Army and the office of Zhao Xun. Now the generals of the Huolin Army live here to work. At this moment, Xue Lei, Zhang Meng, Zhang Ju and other captains of the Long Xiang Army who had taken refuge with the captains of the Huolin Army were sitting together and discussing the current situation.

"My lord, now all the soldiers in Yanzhou City have been included in our hands, and all the generals have been monitored by us, and if there is any change, we will deal with it immediately." Zhao Hai said.

Zhao Xun nodded and said: "Take good care of these people, and those who dare to make changes don't have to report it, and deal with it on the spot." ”

"Killed? Isn't it too ......" Li Luobei hesitated, he mainly considered that killing too many people was really not conducive to the stability below.

Zhao Xun said coldly: "If you go outside, you must first settle inside!" I know that many of the soldiers who are now training are ready to move. It doesn't matter, when we fight back against the Eagles, there is always some sacrifice. ”

Xue Lei and the other new captains of the Long Xiang Army stiffened in their hearts, knowing that Zhao Xun's words were actually meant for them, to warn them, and if there were any small moves, then let them really be in the hands of the Yan Army. Whether he really died at the hands of the Yan Ya Army or at the hands of his own people, only God knows.

Li Luobei continued: "We are now in Yanzhou City, with 16,000 soldiers and more than 11,000 new recruits, and there are too few command officials at all levels, which is a problem; In addition, our armor and weapons are insufficient, and war horses are scarce, even if the treasury is emptied, it is still insufficient. ”

Zhao Xun also knows these two problems, after the reorganization of the army, the original command system of the aid has been disrupted, and the people above the team leader have been directly blacklisted, which will not be activated, at least not in the short term. As for armor and weapons, there is no way to do it.

"In this way, the captains and ten captains of each team will compete or be recommended by each team, and the team leader and the sentry commander will be drawn from the personal guard battalion. The five fruits of the pro-guard battalion, each of which transferred 50 people to form a new command system. Of the 10,000 people, there are still 10 lieutenants and 10 lieutenants, and these 20 people are 10 each of the Longxiang Army and the Huolin Army. ”

It's easy to calculate, everyone secretly said that the commanders at the bottom are all from the Huolin Army, and they are the people around Zhao Xun, and they are definitely loyal to Zhao Xun, and the twenty people at the top are still half of the Longxiang Army and the Huolin Army, so that the original high-level personnel in the Longxiang Army are arranged, and they are not afraid of the slightest change.

Zhao Xun continued: "These 10,000 people were newly organized into one to ten battalions, but because they were all foot soldiers, the five battalions were combined into two prefectures, divided into left and right prefectures. Xue Lei, the general of Zuofu Prefecture, Li Chenfeng, Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning, and your Nufeng battalion has Zhao Mang to take over, they have already entered Miyun County, and when they repel the Yan army outside the city, they will be able to come here. The right government general himself is personally responsible, and the deputy generals are Zhang Meng and Zhao Xiong respectively. Lu Shijie, I order you to then gather the blacksmiths and leather craftsmen in the city to make a battalion of craftsmen and make armor and equipment for the Huolin army. ”

"Command!"

Lu Shijie said with an embarrassed face: "But these craftsmen are all in the shops of various merchants, so I'm afraid we won't be able to recruit them." ”

Zhao Xun snorted coldly and said: "Speaking of this, I will mention that these large and small merchants privately maintain the Wei family, privately build weapons, arm themselves, and there are countless fields everywhere, and countless tenant farmers are like their personal slaves, and they are not under the jurisdiction of the prefecture and county. ”

Lu Shijie said: "This is also a helpless thing, it is like this everywhere, the big landlords conceal the population and land, and encroach on the fields of ordinary people, causing hundreds of people to become their tenant farmers." The government has also lost de facto control over these people. ”

"After a while, I will go and order, in the name of the joint name of the Duwei Mansion and the Thorn History Mansion, from now on, all the blacksmiths, leathermen and other craftsmen in Yanzhou Mansion will be recruited for the use of the imperial court, and those who dare to stop this will be punished for the crime of conspiracy! As for the population of the fields everywhere, Zhao Hai, you Shadow Guard continue to investigate and find out all the circumstances for me, once you defeat the Evil Army, it's time to take out these moths. ”

"Dangdangdang......"

Everywhere in Yanzhou City, groups of officials and patrol guards beating gongs and drums posted notices.

"What is this?"

"What's written?"

"Won't you see it? Such a big word! ”

"Little brother, if I am literate, do I still want to ask you?"

"Let's read it to everyone!"

"yes......"

The young man who looked like a scholar snorted a few times and began to read: "New order! Due to the siege of the city by the Yan army, the soldiers and armor in Yanzhou City are scarce, so from now on, all the blacksmiths, leathermen and other craftsmen in Yanzhou Mansion will report to the Governor's Mansion to make weapons for the soldiers defending the city, and the salary and silver are equivalent to the government army. But whoever hinders him shall be punished as a spy......"

"What do you mean?"

The scholar said: "It means that from now on, all craftsmen will go to the Governor's Mansion to report, make weapons and armor for the soldiers, and will pay the same salary as the government army, and the family will make proper arrangements, if you are craftsmen, go quickly." ”

"Alas, I would like to go, but I am a tenant of the Zhou family, and I want to build farm tools and knives for the Zhou shopkeeper, I'm afraid I won't be able to go." A big man said. Actually, he is still very envious of this treatment, but without his freedom, he can go there casually.

The scholar smiled: "You can rest assured about this, all the craftsmen will go, no one dares to stop them, and there is the Governor's Mansion to support you." ”

"Really? Then I'll sign up now, I heard that I also arrange my family, is it true? ”

"Of course!"

As soon as this order came out, the merchants of all sizes in Yanzhou City were alarmed, especially the merchants with craftsmen, so they didn't let these craftsmen leave, and they were worried that the Duwei Mansion would find trouble. The current Governor's Mansion is said to be the general of the Long Xiang Army who is in charge, and he is very ruthless, not an easy master to deal with. Let it go, but unwillingly, in the end, they all waited silently, indifferent, and saw the reaction of the Governor's Mansion.

"My lord, there are less than 100 people here now, and there are at least more than 500 craftsmen in Yanzhou City. This Yanzhou City is the place where it is handed over with the Yan people, and it has always been the place where the two clans trade, so there are many people in the city and there are many craftsmen. Lu Shijie reported back.

Zhao Xun sneered: "It seems that these people still don't give up." Zhao Qingshan! ”

"Your Excellency!"

"Inform Luo Qi and bring someone to visit these people and ask them to hand over the craftsman, otherwise they will be dealt with as a conspiracy."

Zhangjia in the east of the city.

At the door of the largest leather merchant in Yanzhou City in the past, a large group of soldiers came today.

"Come on, smash it for me."

"Wait...... This adult, and slow down, in the next zhang, I don't know why a few adults want to smash the small door? Zhang Lai, who couldn't sit still in the house anymore, hurriedly led out.

Luo Qi said coldly: "Zhang Lai, are you trying to exterminate the family?" ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Didn't you see yesterday's order? Sin of conspiracy! Come on, give ......"

Zhang Lai wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly said: "The adult is angry, the little one is about to let the craftsmen below go to the Governor's Mansion to report, but it hasn't had time yet." ”

"Really?"

"It's true!"

"Let them go with us, by the way, the household registration will also be taken away!"

"Yes, yes, the little ones let them go with the adults."

The scene in front of Zhang's Mansion spread all over the world in an instant, and merchants everywhere hurriedly sent the craftsmen in their hands to the Duwei Mansion. In one day, seven or eight hundred craftsmen gathered in the Duwei's Mansion and set up a craftsman camp. The craftsman battalion is divided into two parts, one is the weapons battalion and the other is the armor battalion.

"Leave aside the rest for the time being, but a horizontal knife per person is a must, and the production of throwing guns must continue. As for the armor, we lacked iron in our hands, so we first produced leather armor and wooden shields and leather shields. ”

"But my lord, we can't get out of the city, and there is no wood either, and now we can return the discarded weapons to the furnace and retrain, as for the iron, although there is, there are not many."

Zhao asked: "It's okay, when we repel the Yan army outside the city, there will be everything soon." ”
