At noon on the 26th, the right town of Datong was in town. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

These days, the military officials of Datong are all uneasy all day long, the thieves have besieged Ulzhou for many days, and Xiao Yi's department is still nowhere to be heard, and everyone thinks that Ulzhou has fallen.

Even Cai Jiahe, the governor of Datong, frowned all day, and on this day, he was discussing with several Confucians in the main room.

A few cups of freshly brewed Tongcheng Xiaohua tea have been placed on the table, and the unique orchid fragrance in the tea leaves spreads with the warm air, which makes people feel comfortable.

Listening to the discussion of a few old pedants was able to ease his mood a little and forget about the various erosive scenes that might be happening in Ulzhou.

Nie Kegang walked out of the lobby, only to see a mountain spring in the garden spiraling down from the top of the rockery, with a soft rhyme, above the blue pool, falling red points, rippling with the waves.

Cai Jiahe frowned lightly: "I hope there can be some good news from the military gate, otherwise I, the governor, am afraid that I will have to do it." ”

It was at this time that a piece of news came.

Cai Jiahe was taken aback when he heard the news, and then a burst of joy surged into his heart, if the news was true, this time he was not only not guilty, but he might be a blessing in disguise and be rewarded by the imperial court.

Happiness came so suddenly, he could be considered to have experienced the feeling of ice and fire.

In order to confirm the truth of the matter, he hurried to Han Shimeng's mansion, at this time Han Shimeng had just come back, the stool was not hot, and he only had time to sit on it and drink tea, and he saw Cai Jiahe coming to him in a hurry.

Cai Jiahe has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, it is absolutely impossible to come here without anything important in the past, Han Shimeng naturally knows why Cai Jiahe came.

Seeing that the usually calm Lord Futai actually became like this, he also felt funny in his heart at the moment, but Han Shimeng didn't dare to show it, Cai Jiahe ginseng was still enough for Han Shimeng to drink a pot, and his face was still respectful.

"Lord Futai, this... What is it that makes you so in such a hurry? Han Shimeng understood in his heart, and asked pretending to be stupid.

Suddenly felt that he was out of dignity, calmed down, and tidied up his appearance a little to look less down, Cai Jiahe coughed lightly and said: "Lord Junmen has asked Xiao... Oh, Xiao also defeated the thieves? ”

Han Shimeng was still sitting on the chair, and when he heard Cai Jiahe's words, he had a look of sudden realization, and said, "Yes, I just came back from Ulzhou." ”

"That's... True or false? Cai Jiahe asked eagerly.

Han Shimeng laughed: "Naturally it's true, there are more than 3,000 thieves brought back from this trip, and the head of that Wang Zishun is also there, don't say it, that Xiao Yi is really a fierce general, how did you find out!" ”

Cai Jiahe breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, it was good that it was true, he had no impression of Xiao Yike.

"Oh? The head of the thief? ”

Han Shimeng nodded, looked at Cai Jiahe, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "These heads have been inspected by this military gate, and all of them are real thief heads. ”

Cai Jiahe nodded, already showing some smiles: "Well, when the saint hears that Datong has won a great victory against thieves, he will be overjoyed." ”

Then he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Who is this Xiao?" ”

……

Xiao Yi didn't know that his good news had spread all over Datong, and it was spreading rapidly to several surrounding military towns at a very fast speed.

Han Shimeng, Cai Jiahe and others were more eager to deal with this good news than Xiao Yi, and they did everything for Xiao Yi, and they didn't forget to send an official document urging Xiao Yi to properly handle the aftermath, and leave the rest to him.

The good news was quickly reported to the Beijing Division, this time it was not just a cavalry, dozens of Han Shimeng's carefully selected strong men escorted, accompanied by more than a dozen carriages, and the heads of the thieves who were full of Ulzhou's bloody battles went to the Beijing Division.

And now Xiao Yi is already busy in Ulzhou City.

First of all, after the bloody battle, Xiao also immediately issued an official letter informing the subordinate forts of Ulju to make every effort to intercept the fleeing thieves and exterminate the thieves under his rule.

The thieves have been defeated, and the officials and defenders in various places are surprised and naturally rush to send troops and horses to intercept them, which is a good time to take advantage of it.

At the same time, Xiao also sent two commanders of the Yong'an Army, led by Shi Gang and Shi Lutong to sweep away the remnants of bandits, horse gangs and peasant armies in Ulzhou from the north and south, while Huang Yangtong was responsible for the daily training of the Minzhuang and Yong'an troops in the state city.

A total of more than 4,600 taels of silver, more than 1,300 stones of rice and flour, and more than 1,200 cattle and sheep were seized.

Since then, it has been nearly a hundred years, and the bandits that have been causing trouble everywhere have been the first in Ulju to be quelled.

As long as it is the place where the flag of the Yong'an Army is erected, the thieves all flee from the wind, and even those horse thieves who come and go like the wind do not dare to come here to rob, because none of the horse thieves who plundered can escape from here, as long as the Yong'an Army is mentioned, the eyes of the bandits are deeply afraid.

The bandits were afraid and uneasy, but the soldiers and civilians ran to tell each other, calling it virtue!

……

After the bloody battle that night, there were thousands of corpses under the city of Ulzhou, among which there were naturally many thieves, but there were also many Yongan soldiers and brave soldiers who died in battle.

After statistics, more than 600 pairs of leather armor were obtained, but most of them were already dilapidated, and they could still be used after simple repairs, more than 400 machetes, and the rest of the cloth clothes and felt hats, wooden sticks, pitchforks, hooks, guns, axes, etc., were piled up in the warehouse.

Due to Xiao Yi's clothes and armor, the treasury in Ulju was already empty, and after the war, these seizures were continuously stored in the warehouse.

The Ulju treasury is full, and it is full of ordnance and armor, which makes people feel happy when they see it.

According to post-war statistics, there were more than 5,000 taels of gold and silver in the peasant barracks outside the three gates, and more than 7,600 taels of silver were exchanged for silver.

It is worth mentioning that there are more than 800 horses harvested this time, plus the previous storage of horses, Xiao Yi has at least more than 1,000 good fast horses on hand, which is enough to initially form a special cavalry team, thinking of this, Xiao Yi can't help but be excited.

The soldiers and civilians of the whole city are admiring Xiao Yi's clever calculations, compared with this harvest, the armor and equipment that Xiao Yi issued before the war, and the silver taels spent by the labor army, are not even a fraction.

Xiao Yidu, according to his promise, sent the armor, swords, and guns of the fallen soldiers to their families to remember, and found silver and acres of consolation.

For those brave who died in battle, the spirit cards were also completed, and there was no difference between them and the sergeants of the Yong'an Army, and they were put into the ancestral hall of Yong'an Fort for future generations to pay tribute to the martyrs, which also made their families doubly moved.

After this battle, although those temporarily recruited brave men all received silver taels, no one wanted to return home like this.

Although it was only more than half a month after this time, the Minyong of each team had a deep affection for their instructors, and they also became intimate because of this battle, and they liked the life of Minyong for half a month from the bottom of their hearts.

When Xiao Yi announced the disbandment, no one left, they were still lined up in the field, and they all looked at Xiao Yi quietly, Xiao Yi looked at the people in the field, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten, they were all good soldiers.

Li Erniu, Yuan Shaogong and Zhou Ding naturally didn't want Xiao Yi to disband these people like this, and even Yuan Shaogong came to find Xiao Yi every day, in order to try his best to persuade Xiao Yi.

In the end, after the discussion and decision of all the generals, the capable men were selected from the brave to fill the Yong'an army to make up for the deaths, and then the rest of the brave were reorganized and divided, and finally they were still divided into three battalions.

In fact, Xiao also set up the Zhenwei Battalion as a reserve for the Yongan Army, but Xiao Yi never imagined that it was this reserve that it had become an army that made thieves fearful.

In the future, in addition to the usual large-scale expansion of the Yong'an Army, the elite will be selected from the Zhenwei battalion to make up for the training and combat vacancies, and at the same time, the general Xiao of the Zhenwei battalion will also try his best to give opportunities to generals other than the Yong'an Army.

Carefully selected from the local generals and selected the best officers and grassroots officers of the Zhenwei Battalion, but the instructors of the Zhenwei Battalion are still the veterans of the Yongan Army, and the battalion officers of the 123rd Battalion are still Li Erniu, Yuan Shaogong and Zhou Ding.

These veterans are all absolute elites personally selected by Xiao Yi and a few others, and they are also loyal to Xiao Yi.

In terms of military power, Xiao Yi fully gave those local generals rights, but the instructors in the Yong'an Army to the Zhenwei Battalion held Xiao Yi's secret documents in addition to daily supervision and training, and once something happened.

They can issue documents, and have the right to mobilize the soldiers and horses they supervise and train, and they usually have feelings for those sergeants who get along closely, and with Xiao Yi's documents, they can immediately mobilize soldiers and horses to suppress and capture the culprits.

Such incidents can be dealt with completely before they become larger, which is also a preparation to prevent those with ulterior motives from mixing in with the noisy sergeants.

In this way, Xiao Yijun's system is more complete. (To be continued.) )
