Xiao also pacified the Tujiagou bandits who had been making trouble, and in the past few days, he opened an iron mine in Tujiagou, and moved the people who could not be arranged in Yong'an Fort and Changning Town to live in Tujiagou. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

As for the cultivated cattle, the number of cultivated cattle in the fort was seriously insufficient, but after the suppression of bandits, many cultivated cattle were obtained, and then Shi Gang went to the state city to buy them, but he could barely maintain at least one cultivated cattle for every three households.

In addition, there must be no shortage of wells, and they can't afford to build a waterwheel, but at least they must ensure that each family's land has at least a few wells to use, so that they can meet the water needs of the people.

In terms of equipment, the drawings of the Wansheng hook have been handed over to the craftsmen of the two castles to make them well-made, but at the same time, the production of three-eyed guns, spears, knives, shields, helmets, and armor cannot be stopped.

Xiao also gave a death order to the head of the two forts, and the others could be as few as possible, but no matter what the price, it was necessary to ensure that at least ten pairs of six-break pointed hats and helmets, five three-eyed guns, and ten Wansheng hooks must be made every day, and the whole army should be distributed as soon as possible, and finally other swords, guns and armor must be made.

In this way, March and April passed, and the time entered May of the third year of Chongzhen, at this stage, Xiao Yi paid great attention to the newspapers and official documents from all over the world every day, especially the newspapers from Liaodong, and the war situation in Liaodong should be over at this time.

First of all, there was a great upheaval in the court, and Li Biao, the first assistant of the cabinet, was indeed removed in early March, and Cheng Ji was appointed as the first assistant of the cabinet in early April.

The court did not calm down with the change of the cabinet's first assistant, and Cao Yubian, the imperial historian of the left capital, was impeached by Zhongshuyuan Baoqi, and the five people including Shangshu Sun Ju were both from Shanxi and were "Western Party", and Lu Chengyuan, the director of the Ministry of Labor, also impeached him for the six crimes of "friend adultery" and had to write a letter to resign.

After the Beijing Division defended the war, Yuan Chonghuan was impeached by the courtiers and looked at the prison, and Han Yi, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, was Yuan Chonghuan's teacher. Later, he was impeached by his concubine Ding Jin, Li Fengshen, the director of the Ministry of Industry, and others, and had no choice but to resign.

Later, there were many casualties caused by the explosion of the test artillery, and Liang Tingdong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, impeached Langzhong Wang for dereliction of duty, and Shangshu Nan Juyi rescued him, but Emperor Chongzhen thought that Nan Juyi formed a party for personal gain, and he was a staff to guard sixty times, and he dismissed Juyi.

……

The court has changed greatly, quarreling all day long, the courtiers are impeaching this all day long for their own interests, deposing that, plus the news from Shaanxi is not good, Chongzhen is irritable, and the more irritable Chongzhen is, the more officials are deposed, and now everyone in the court is in danger, and everyone is protecting themselves.

Xiao Yi looked at the Liaodong Mansion newspaper again, and saw many generals who died in battle that he didn't know before, and also saw Liu Ce, who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Liu Ce, the chief soldier of Da'ankou, and Zhang Shixian, the chief soldier, were arrested together, and beheaded in the city on the 10th day of the first month of April, and dozens of people from the entourage were beheaded together, this news Shi Gang and others saw the sudden joy, and what Liu Ce did in Da'ankou at that time Xiao Yi and others saw it, and this person was killed out of Xiao Yi's bad breath.

When the Jin entered the border, Liu Zhilun asked for battle, recruited 10,000 people, divided into eight battalions, and divided them into eight deputy general soldiers, and then the Jin soldiers captured Luanzhou, stationed in the Santun camp, and divided the troops to guard Hanerzhuang, Liu Zhilun went out of Jizhou, and the faction will Wu Yinglong and others take Luowenyu Pass from the middle road, and led the eight battalions to arrive in Zunhua.

After the Jin soldiers surrounded the mountain, recruited Liu Zhilun to surrender, left and right persuaded him to form a formation and retreat, Liu Zhilun refused, the whole army fought again, Chongzhen three years on March 22 for the Houjin soldiers to shoot and kill, eight battalions of soldiers fought to only one battalion.

After March 22, Jin attacked Malan City, when the deputy commander-in-chief Jin Riguan was stationed in Malan, Jin Riguan held on to Malan City, personally lit cannons, and the leaders were burned their hands and feet, but they were still full of spirit. After Ma Shilong ordered the general Wang Shixuan and others to come to the rescue, after the Jin soldiers retreated, searched, and attacked Malan with 2,000 horses, Jin Riguan and Wang Shixuan and others could not hold on, Xiao also nodded, if there is a chance in the future, you can go to see this Jin Riguan.

On the fourth day of the first month of May, Sun Chengzong made a decision, the official army counterattacked, and the general soldier Ma Shilongtun Fengrun was waiting for a joint attack; Zhu Mei, the general soldier, took Qian'an with guerrilla Jin Guochen; Wang Weicheng and others approached Luanzhou to attack together to contain Qian'an and southern aid; He Kegang of the Chinese army looked at the mountains in equal parts, and led the enemy of Yongping; The righteous army traveled to Liu Fa, garrisoning Liu Qizhi with 30,000 people in Lianbo of Luanzhou, as a supporter and guide.

Sun Chengzong stationed in Funing, Zu Dashou also came to rendezvous, so he recovered Luanzhou, Qian'an, Yongping, Zunhua Sicheng, each fort twelve, and won the Houjin prefect Zhang Yangchu, the capital of the imperial Shi Ma Sigong, the Bingdao Jia Wei key, Zhizhou Yang Yi, the governor Li Jichun, the garrison Lu and the first and many other people, the Houjin invasion was blocked, and finally closed the cold mouth and returned to the east, and all of them withdrew from the Ming realm in May, and the Ming court heard the great shock.

The courtiers of Beijing competed to celebrate, and there was an endless stream of people who came to the door with gifts, and the people set off firecrackers to celebrate, which was like the Spring Festival.

This time after the entrance of the gold, detour to Mongolia, from Da'ankou, Longjing pass, close to the Beijing division, including Zunhua, several cities were broken, the dun guards are countless, erosion in the north for several months, the military disaster until Datong, although it was attacked by Sun Chengzong, but the captive population of tens of thousands, cattle and sheep are numerous, it is really a full load.

-----

Some time ago, the results of the battle of Tujiagou have come down, Xiao Yi has not said a word since he came back, only in the territory of the two forts is still silently developing and training recruits, let the people of Peach Blossom Fort say that in April, they quarreled for their own heads for half a month, and then the credit was divided.

As for him Xiao Yi, as Chen Hao was worried about, there were only four words, and the merits and demerits were offset, Xiao Yi and Shi Gang had said it before, and no one said anything more this time, but they were a little unhappy for Xiao Yi in their hearts.

On this day, in the official hall of 100 households in Changning Town, a row of generals gathered together, beaming with joy.

Shi Gang laughed first: "Judging from today's Di newspaper, the Tartars have finally retreated!" Everyone was very happy to hear that the Tartars had been attacking Daankou since October last year, and it had been more than seven months since they had finally been driven back.

But some people were not very happy, Wang Dayong sighed and said, "Hey, there are many homeless people from Jingshi recently, I have seen a lot of hometown people, don't Jingshi accept homeless people?" ”

Xiao Yi was also quite helpless, "It's too late to hide everywhere now, how can you accept displaced people." ”

Liu Shiren said indignantly, "That is, my two forts will be accommodated, and it would be better to put other places without being cut off and inviting merit to receive rewards!" ”

Everyone nodded their heads again and again when they heard this, and they all agreed very much.

Zeng La came out and said: "My lord, the helmets that are enough for the whole army to wear have been made, just waiting for the adults to distribute!" It's just that.. Coal is slightly insufficient. ”

Xiao Yi snorted, and now the matter of coal is imminent.

Qi Lao also said: "Wansheng hook has been made, and more than 2,000 invincible bamboo generals have been made, this invincible bamboo general is not made when the adults are in Dafang Mountain, all of them are made of hard bamboo, which is more stable and effective!" ”

Xiao Yi nodded.

Zhongyang said: "My lord, listen to the orders of the adults, the little old man has been studying the bird gun for a long time, and the craftsman invited by the state city a few days ago has helped him, and the production of the bird gun has been very effective, and he has started to make drawings in the past few days!" ”

"Good!"

Xiao Yi laughed when he heard it, took everyone to the sand table, looked at the model of a small village fort in Changning Town, and clenched his fists.

Now that the weapons and armor are all assembled, and the recruits have gone through months of training, they are just waiting to go into battle to kill the enemy, everything is ready, it is time to deal with the affairs of that Qijiazhuang, this heroic Zhuangzi has become a habit of not listening to the orders of the imperial court, and the sooner the better.

"Mr. Qi, Mr. Zeng, Mr. Zhongyang, a few of you can get fifty acres of land and one hundred silver. All the other craftsmen and craftsmen are given 20 acres of land, a ploughing ox, and three fat sheep, and 30 to 50 silver according to their efforts, and Yuan Dachang is responsible for distribution, and the wages are paid separately. ”

Yuan Dachang nodded, "My subordinates will do it immediately." ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Qi Lao and the others have nothing to be happy about, they are happy enough to meet Xiao Yi such a Shangguan, and the other craftsmen are very excited, they have been looking forward to the arrival of this day since the first day, and now they have finally been rewarded, such a rich reward is enough to make them ecstatic.
