Chapter 237: Civil-Military Cooperation
After the execution, the first thing the soldiers of the Yong'an Army did was to help the people rebuild the seriously damaged houses under the leadership of the commander and the captain, and the bodies of the dead soldiers and civilians in the city and the corpses of the executed rebels should also be disposed of to avoid the plague.

Now that it's over, there's no need to think about it all the time.
However, there are many people who care about the three total places vacated this time, and there are generally hereditary officials everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, and this kind of vacancy is really rare when it appears, and there is a lot of open and secret fighting for these three places.
But as the official of Ulzhou City, Xiao Yi's words can play a decisive role, Xiao Yi naturally will not let this fertilizer water flow into the fields of outsiders, and no one dares to question his decision at this time.
"Datong Right Guard Right Thousand Households Deputy Thousand Households Shi Lu, Huang Yang, Shi Gang three loyal and brave and wise, can be of great use, can be the general, Datong Right Guard Right Thousand Households Deputy Thousand Households Dong Yinghua is fair and strict, can be appointed as the governor of the state."
The candidate has been determined, Xiao Yi drafted an official document and submitted it to Zhao Ming, the garrison of the Acropolis, according to the process, after Zhao Ming's consent, it was reported to Lord Nie Kegang, the military garrison of the East Road, for approval, and the matter could be decided.
Ulzhou City lost more than two troops, and the original garrison army was only left with a total of soldiers and horses led by Zhou Ding, and there were a lot of vacancies, and after Dong Yinghua's dismissal, half of the people were dismissed and returned home.
It stands to reason that Zhou Ding's family members are also within the scope of the removal, but this time he has already shown his loyalty to Xiao Yi, and strictly restrained his subordinates, Xiao Yi allowed him to leave all the family members like Yuan Shaogong.
In this way, there are more than 50 people left by Qian Zongyuan Shaogong, and only 30 people are left in the general weekly rule, and the two are already very satisfied with this, after all, Cao Biao and others are a lesson from the past.
Without these troops, the garrison army of the state city will be rebuilt, Xiao Yi withered the order, the Yong'an army recruits gathered at Yong'an Fort, and set off for the state city in the early morning of the 17th.
Because it was the first time to go to the state city, many people were a little nervous in their hearts, but they kept in mind the training content, and just followed the veterans in front of them, and they did what the veterans did, and set out on the road with full spirit.
Coincidentally, just the day before, the news that Wang Zishun had broken through Pingxingling and entered Datong reached Ulzhou City, and by this time the news could not be blocked.
The people had just gone through the incident of the officers and soldiers who had not yet eased up, and at this time, another rogue came in a big way, and the people inside and outside the prefecture city were panicking, and many people were already thinking about whether to flee with their families.
The Baixin were still hesitating, while the rich and gentry were packing their bags on this day, loading their assets, and preparing to flee to the Acropolis for a while.
On the morning of August 17, many gentry and merchants had not yet had time to flee, and the people were also panicking, although the Yong'an army was strong, but after all, there were only more than 400 people, and the number of thieves was so strong that I was afraid that the state city would be difficult to defend.
Suddenly they heard the sound of footsteps outside the city, they were shocked, they didn't know what was happening, some went out of the door to check, some were in the house and listened carefully to the sound of steps outside, and many people looked out of the attic, lying in front of the door and window to listen carefully.
Although the sound of these steps is so close that although they are not as strong as yesterday's steps of the officers and soldiers, from the sound of them, there are hundreds of people to say the least.
This is the third time that the Yong'an Army has recruited new soldiers, compared to more than 400 veterans, it is even more spectacular for more than 600 recruits to enter the city together.
Although the steps were not so neat, and the sound was not so loud, the soldiers and civilians in the city could see a sea of armor all over the streets.
Even for each recruit, the most basic equipment is a pair of fine armor, a hat and a helmet, waist knives, standard spears and other Ming standard weapons are even more complete, and everyone has three short bamboo tubes pinned to their waists.
Among them were the spirited night warriors on tall horses, the sword players who carried a large shield and were not to be underestimated, the bird guns who carried the bird guns on their shoulders, and the more the pikemen who held their spears and stared straight ahead.
The people looked at the armor and banners of these officers and soldiers, and there were so many Yong'an troops?!
In the state administration, Wang Zhan, the governor of the state, was even more surprised when he heard the news, and hurriedly took Zheng Wenju, Zhou Youcheng and other officials out of the state office, and saw the recruits of the Yongan Army who were marching forward from the front of the state government.
Where did Wang Zhan and the others have the heart to observe the neatness of the queue at this time, these people passing by in front of them are no different from the sergeants who calmed down the chaos a few days ago, but they are so many elites.
Wang Zhan and the others had cold faces, they thought that Xiao Yi only had those 400 soldiers, but at this time, I don't know where to transfer so many elite soldiers, this time Xiao Yi has more than 1,000 family members under him, who knows if Xiao Yi has other soldiers and horses, how many people are in the Yong'an Army?
After the recruits arrived in the city, they directly entered the barracks, and were divided into each general sentinel according to the establishment.
The timely entry of the Yong'an army into the city gave the people a lot of comfort, in fact, if they had a choice, most people would not want to flee here, they have lived here for generations, this is their real home.
After the Yongan army entered the city, in addition to the daily necessities of not closing the sentry patrol at night, patrolling the streets in the city, and changing guards, it began to prepare for war all the time.
Xiao also saw in the booklet that there were more than 100 registered artisan households in the state city, and Xiao also clearly stipulated the reward and punishment system of Yong'an Fort to them.
But at first, the effect was not obvious, and there were still some people who knew the law and broke the law in vain to escape punishment, Xiao did not tolerate it, and immediately disposed of a group of stupid craftsmen.
Then, in order to prove the authenticity of the reward, a group of craftsmen who had been praised by the state and the city for a long time were given silver, grain, and meat.
They are all grateful to Xiao Yi, these things are nothing to Xiao Yi, but they are already very precious to them, and they are doing their best to repay Xiao Yi.
This also made the rest of the craftsmen wake up and work seriously.
Xiao also asked Gu Chi to continue to stay in Yong'an Fort and Changning Town's iron mines and coal mining workshops, while Wang Xiong and Qi Haoguang came to Ulzhou with a group of Taohuabao craftsmen.
The two of them were in charge of the Zhoucheng Craftsman Workshop, and under their drive, the Zhoucheng Workshop changed its previous heaviness and began to operate at full strength, and the dingdong sound of the craftsmen inside could be heard day and night.
Originally, Xiao Yi also planned to build a new urn city outside the city, and in the past few days, Xiao Yi had called Wang Xiong and Qi Haoguang to discuss with several old craftsmen in the state city.
But after discussing it for a long time, I found that this is not realistic, it takes half a month or even several months for a solid urn city to be built well, and it takes even longer for Ulzhou City to be built, and in the end Xiao Yi had to give up this idea and turned to repair the city wall with all his might, which is still very easy to do.
Xiao Yi immediately mobilized the whole city army and civilians to repair the city wall and the four gates of Ulzhou City together, he had carefully observed the city wall of Ulzhou on the day he took office, although the city wall is tall, but some places are still in disrepair, this time it will be all repaired.
He also asked Shi Gang to lead people to cut down all the trees within a radius of more than ten miles and transport them to the city to assist in defending the city, and some huge stones outside the city were also split into smaller gravel and piled up on the edge of the battlements of the city wall to defend the city.
