Chapter 207: Armor Protection
Until he arrived at the front of the Thousand Households Official Hall, Xiao Yi walked into the Thousand Households Official Hall surrounded by everyone, and the two maids had already been waiting in front of the lobby door, and Xiao Yi gave him a gift when he just walked to the lobby.

As they walked into the lobby, there were generals such as Shi Lu and Huang Yang, as well as a group of small officials including Dong Yinghua and Zheng Zhong.
First of all, Zheng Zhong reported to Xiao Yi the situation of the acres of land in the past half a month, and since half a month, piers and wells have been continuously built, and there are also 36 piers in Taohuabao, and there are at least more than 5,000 wells, and there are two wells in almost every mu of field.
The people in the fort worked together to reclaim more than 3,000 acres of wasteland in half a month, and more displaced people came in recent days, almost every day, dozens of hundreds of people came with their families, some of them came from other tunbao nearby, but most of them came from Taiyuan Mansion.
In the past half a month, the Yong'an Army has exterminated more than a dozen cowhide thieves in Taiyuan Prefecture, extinguished one of the officers and soldiers who caused chaos, and even exterminated a peasant army of 2,000 people.
In this way, naturally many people who were rescued by the Yong'an Army were looking forward to the good days of Peach Blossom Castle, and they came with their families one after another.
Although there were many casualties on the road, after arriving at the territory of Peach Blossom Castle, those rogues stopped when they saw the dun guards from afar.
Therefore, these days, a group of small officials under Zheng Zhong are almost busy with naturalization for new arrivals, distributing fields, and helping the people build houses.
Xiao Yi led the army away, some bandits around were naturally unstable, and in the first few days of the Yong'an army's departure, there was a group of more than 70 horse thieves who took advantage of the disaster to disturb Peach Blossom Castle, Xiao Yi and most of the Yong'an army were not there, and everyone thought that the officers and soldiers would not care.
The defenders on the pier guard quickly discovered the horse thief entering the country, and immediately reported Shi Lu.
Shi Lu was furious when he heard the report, and he led the night to stay vigil without accepting more than 40 people, and cooperated with the defenders of the rotation of the Zhudun Guards to intercept the horse thieves, and the two sides fought under the twelfth guard of Peach Blossom Castle.
The soldiers of the Yong'an Army fought bravely to the death to defend their homeland, and Shi Lu was the first to inspire the soldiers, and more than 70 plundering horse thieves who did not kill for more than 40 nights complained bitterly, and the horse thieves were defeated and cut 32 ranks.
The horse thieves fled to the territory of Yong'an Fort, and Liu Shiren, the general banner of Yong'an Fort, did not intercept them at night, and these horse thieves were all killed in the territory.
In addition, there are no thieves and bandits who have opened their eyes and dare to enter the territory where the Yong'an Army is stationed, until the army returns victoriously and the territory is peaceful.
Zheng Zhong was followed by Dong Yinghua, and Xiao Yi reported some irrelevant public security matters, Xiao Yi still listened carefully, and finally Shi Lu and Xiao Yi reported some things separately, Xiao Yi listened very carefully and thought about it every time.
This time, the soldiers went out to fight and suffered a lot, so Xiao also decided to take a five-day vacation for all the soldiers who went out with the army, and continue to practice every day after five days.
He also asked the commander of each armor to report the meritorious service and so on, and finally the battle merit was settled, and there were many soldiers who had reached the promotion of the cumulative combat merit this time.
There are more than 40 people in the statistics, and Xiao Yi has a list of these people in his hand, they will be the recruit instructors who will expand the army in the future, they are all qualified soldiers, and there is no problem at all to supervise and train those recruits.
And Xiao also found a lot of disadvantages in this battle, first of all, the problem of the three-eyed gun, in the future, let the enemy rush to the front of the firecracker must not happen again, although the power of the three-eyed gun is very sufficient, melee combat is also one of the advantages.
However, Xiao also felt that as a long-range weapon, the role of the firecracker was obvious, and the firecracker should give full play to the advantages of long-range, so that the accuracy and range of the three-eyed gunner were slightly insufficient.
Xiao Yi has been brewing for a long time, it's time to replace the three-eyed gun with a bird gun, the best shooting distance of the three-eyed gun is only about 100 steps, and the bird gun can reach one hundred and fifty steps, even if the well-made bird gun is still more accurate even if it is two hundred steps away, and the power is not less than the three-eyed gun.
There are also people who understand this aspect, Xiao Yi has always paid attention to that Ge San, and I still remember that when I first came to Peach Blossom Castle a few months ago, Chen Hao and Xiao Yi mentioned that Ge San was good at using bird guns, so he could be Liu Tong's deputy and assist Liu Tong in training bird guns.
And these days, Chen Hao has not been idle, and he is busy with the newly built stores all day long.
The lack of firearms is also one of the drawbacks that Xiao also recognized, and the role played by the musketeers in the last battle was actually very limited, and the number of people was small.
In addition to the suppression of the formation, there were not many casualties among the peasant army, but now with these nearly 100 firecrackers who are proficient in the use of firearms, Xiao Yi can finally expand the number of bird-fighting guns.
In terms of shield array, the Yong'an Army's long-term actual combat has fully proved that the half-body shield made by Qi Lao and the three of them is enough to resist the impact of the cavalry.
In the end, Dong Yinghua did not leave, he waited for the rest of the people to leave, stepped forward and said what he had been worried about, seeing his anxious appearance, Xiao Yi was also very curious, and motioned him to talk about it carefully.
Xiao Yi was also surprised when he heard this, it turned out that the problem raised by Dong Yinghua was the system of the people under his rule, and the armor protection system was generally established in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, but now it has long been destroyed and cannot be used.
Most of the soldiers and civilians under Xiao Yi's rule came from other places, and the original armor protection system could no longer be used.
Dong Yinghua reminded Xiao Yi of this problem, Xiao Yi thought about it for a long time, the sooner this problem was solved, the better, and finally decided to establish a new management system.
The people take the 'household' as the unit, every ten households are a 'A', set up a chief, and the military and civilians under the rule are called the first chief, but the meaning is not the same, the first chief of the army is a military position, with twelve soldiers, and the local A chief is to manage ten households.
These 10 households are not a hard and fast rule, and the preliminary regulations stipulate that each household shall not be less than five or more than fifteen.
Locally, ten 'A' is a 'guarantee', and the name of the chief is to protect the peace of the neighbors, and the local chief and the chief are all famous people in the neighborhood.
Although Xiao Yi wanted the people to vote spontaneously, this was unlikely at this time, and it was likely that this would lead to repeated attacks by local clans and wealthy households, so he could only wait for this to change later.
One 'guarantee' is also not less than five 'A', or more than fifteen 'A'.
Xiao Yi also asked Dong Yinghua to set up a relevant regulation, in which Xiao also proposed to add one point, that is, Chief A needs to give the chief a list of people in each subordinate household every month.
For example, if there are five people in a household, whether they are farmers, artisans or sergeants, they must be written, and the number of acres of land in the family, the number of cattle and so on must also be written on it, and what the chief has to do every month is to report the detailed information of each subordinate household to the chief of security.
After the chief of the security department investigates clearly, it will be reported every three months, and finally they will all converge to Zheng Zhong, who is responsible for checking and proofreading, and informing Xiao Yi if there is any discrepancy.
In this way, it is convenient to implement unified management of the people, and this armor protection system and the military household system are also similar, the first chief is equivalent to the first chief in the army, and the chief is equivalent to a hundred households in the army, but Xiao Yi changed his term for his position, Xiao Yi only thinks about so much at present, and the rest will be changed and supplemented later.
But even so, Dong Yinghua was secretly surprised in his heart, Xiao Yijie Wufu was able to implement the armor protection system so skillfully, this armor protection system is no different from the original at first glance, and it is a little intriguing when you think about it carefully.
He immediately retreated and returned to the mansion to draw up detailed regulations.
……
On the 11th day of the seventh month of the third year of Chongzhen, the second day after Xiao Yi led the army to leave Chunxian, and six days before the Yongan army returned to Taohuabao, an urgent report was sent to Daizhou from Chunxian County.
Daizhou was abolished as 'Daixian' in the second year of Hongwu, and it was not renamed 'Daizhou' until the eighth year of Hongwu.
The geographical location of Daizhou is very good, and the people of the time called it "the feudal guard of the same state outside the state, the lock and key of Taiyuan inside, the root of the three passes, and the throat of the whole Jin." ’
Daizhou is choked with mountains and rivers, and it is quite far away to the side, which is called the belly.
At that time, Lu Yunshan, who was the governor of Daizhou, was sleeping soundly in the house at noon on this day, but an urgent knock on the door made him very unhappy.
After about a cup of tea, Lu Yunshan, who was already dressed properly, was turning around in the lobby, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and there were continuous exclamations in his mouth, good news?
It's the first time I've seen this kind of good news for a long time, some time ago, Cao Wenzhao led the Guanning cavalry through Daizhou, and he had a good wine and meat to entertain him, this time it must be Cao Zongbing's good news of thieves.
But when he opened it, he frowned, and after reading it, he was surprised, but he had more questions, where did the Yong'an Army come from, where is Peach Blossom Castle, and who is this Xiao Yi?
He had never heard of these names before, but the annihilation of Wang Zimeng by 600 people was indeed a great achievement, at least nearly 1,000 ranks, which was already a great victory since the suppression of the peasant army for a while.
But he didn't dare to report it directly, and sent his henchman Dao Chun County to inquire carefully, and the henchman came back and told Lu Yunshan that the magistrate of Chun County and the chief secretary and others were all painting and painting the description of the battle of the Yong'an Army, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.
Although Lu Yunshan was still very confused, he worked hard to write.
On the twelfth, the gate of Daizhou was opened, a roll of yellow dust rolled, and a horse galloped towards the acropolis with good news in hand. (To be continued.) )
