Gao Xunqi's head was taken to the surrounding villages and villages and passed it on, and finally placed on the beam of the top of the pavilion in Beima Town, where bandits were rampant, and was equipped with a pottery urn to warn those who followed the bandits.

This trick really worked, and the surrounding landlords who didn't want to sell their land saw Gao Xunqi's fate, and couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, when Zhao Quan came to sell the land again, some sold the land that could not grow grain on their hands, and some agreed to rent it to the Zhao family, but the rent was very low.

The meaning of the Zhao family is self-evident, if you don't sell the land, you will wait to be troubled by the Zhao family. The Gao family is a tyrant in the surrounding area, but it was killed by the Zhao family in the name of bandits, which is naturally worrying everyone.

But some people applauded, after all, Gao Xunqi usually did a lot of evil things.

As for the government's side, after hearing that Gao Xunqi, a person from this county, was slaughtered, he was also surprised, but there was no follow-up......

The power of the Gao family is naturally clear, and the Zhao family can take the Gao family to the end, so naturally there are a lot of family members.

What is the official picture? Naturally, he got rich. What does Gao Xunqi have to do with him, if the Zhao family is investigated, if there is any demon moth, it will be troublesome, and the money that people buy officials has not yet earned!

After the large-scale enclosure, Zhao Yan did not have much silver left, only 40,000 taels left. The land under their control, plus the ownerless land, or uncultivated land, is estimated to reach 110,000 acres.

The mountain range in the southern part of Huangxian County is V-shaped, and there is an intermittent mountain head undulating in the middle, Zhaojia Village is located in the middle of this V-shape, which has expanded to the bottom of the V-shaped to the south, expanded to Lutou Town to the northeast, and expanded to Beima Town to the northwest.

Within this range, there are many reading villages, although many are dilapidated, but they are still inhabited, but the situation is not very good.

There were no ploughing cattle, no seeds, not even food. Zhao Yan asked people to get in touch with these villages, and those who could help were helped, after all, the distance was so close, it was also very beneficial to help them resume production, at least the food could be increased, and people would not starve to death if they had food.

The villages were overjoyed after receiving the kindness of the Zhao family, and those squires sent people to the Zhao family to borrow cattle and seeds, and even excused grain.

After Zhao Yan made the longbow, he did not make the longbow a mandatory training item for the family, but only let them practice it by themselves when they had free time.

After all, these current family members are pikemen, and they are not required to be able to shoot bows.

Although he did not ask the family to practice archery, Zhao Yan asked the young men in the tundi below to practice archery diligently, and each of the three forts was equipped with a longbow workshop, and each of the young men below was equipped with a longbow, and enough arrows were provided for the young men to train.

There were no firearms in the Tang and Song dynasties, but the Tang Dynasty reached the peak of the Chinese nation, although the Song Dynasty was defeated again and again, but it was able to barely resist the nomads, and there had never been a dynasty to the end of the Ming Dynasty so unscrupulously broke into the pass and plundered.

Firearms in the Ming Dynasty were widely used, and almost all officials and soldiers had firearms. But it is undeniable that the development of firearms in the Ming Dynasty has been surpassed by the West. At the same time, most of the firearms of the Ming army cut corners and were shoddy, and they could not pose any threat to the Manchu Qing soldiers wearing cotton armor.

Although the prospect of firearms is considerable, the bow and crossbow must not be left behind, after all, the firearms of this era are not very reliable, and the development of the bow and crossbow is the most insurance.

If you want to form an elite longbow army, you must have a large number of people who practice archery for a long time, Zhao Yan is impossible to form an elite longbow army in the short term, but you can take it slowly, one year is not two years, two years is not three years, three years is not four years......

As long as each recruited young man practices archery diligently, as more and more homeless people are recruited, more and more longbowmen can be provided to him in the future.

What he wants is for all the people to be soldiers, and all the people are elite soldiers. With the huge population of the Han nationality, if you can't kill the Manchu Tartars, you have to beat him until it hurts.

……

Thirty regimental drills gathered in Zhaojiabao, and Zhao Yan gave each of them a longbow and began to teach them how to train longbow soldiers.

Longbowmen only need to play a 'barrage' or throw a 'rain of arrows' in the battle, so the training items of the longbowmen are the accuracy of flat shooting and the distance of projectiles.

Flat shooting is relatively simple, as long as you keep practicing, keep shooting fixed targets and moving targets.

In order to facilitate training, Zhao Yan divided the projectile distance into ten levels, with an interval of 30 meters between each level.

The longbow is also opened differently from the compound bow, which is a five-finger bow. This makes the regiments not very accustomed to practice, but they must get used to it if they are not used to it.

"When you return to the tundi, you must train the villagers with your heart. I will assess each Tunxiang Yong once every three months, and the assessment items are queues, marksmanship, and archery, and the top ten in each item will be rewarded with five taels of silver, and will be issued with a banner. The top three in each item will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, the first prize in each item will be rewarded with fifteen taels of silver, and the bottom five will be fined three taels of silver, and then roll out to pick up three days of dung. Zhao Yan once again used the sugar-coated cannon to increase the stick policy, and if he practiced well, he would be rewarded, and if he didn't practice well, he would be fined. Then use the flags commonly used in schools in later generations to enhance the sense of honor of the winners, and let them pick up the dung at the bottom, hoping to be ashamed and brave.

Heaven and hell are two choices, as long as you are not a fool, you will choose heaven, if you are a fool, then don't do it.

"Do you understand?" Zhao Yan asked.

"Understood."

"Okay, disband." Zhao Yan nodded.

The regiments returned to the tundi and brought with them a batch of longbows and arrows that had just been made.

But within a few days, opposition appeared, and Zhang Buyun, who was the head of a cantonment under Zhaojiabao, ran back directly and protested to Zhao Yan against his reward and punishment system.

"The owner, your idea is naturally very good, diligent practice of the township can indeed better protect the territory and the people, but has the owner ever thought that now the regimental training of each tun is so active, but it affects the farming, and we, as the tun chief, can't control them. There should be a proper measure between farming and practicing the villagers, and then the villagers are also complaining, and some villagers even have the intention of leaving. Although Zhang Buyun's tone was not very serious, the meaning of protest was very obvious.

"This ...... It was my negligence. Zhao Yan frowned slightly, and said embarrassedly, he really ignored this problem.

Peasants have to farm as well as train, and if the people in charge of organizing and training are anxious, they will naturally conflict with production.

Zhao Yan's policy of all the people being soldiers is similar to the government military system of the Tang Dynasty, and the great glory of the Tang Dynasty was largely created by the government soldiers, and in the late Tang Dynasty, because of the land annexation, the government military system was corrupted, and the corruption of the government military system gave rise to warlord rebellion. At the same time, land annexation also caused the Huangchao Rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty.

"What is Wenlong's good plan?" Zhao Yan asked.

"First of all, we must set specific rules, the training during the busy farming period shall not interfere with production, and the regimental training shall train the villagers during the slack time. There will inevitably be conflicts between the regimental training and the tun chief, and it is necessary for the tun commander and the tun training to coordinate with each other, so that they can work together and work together for the public. Zhang Buyun said.

Zhao Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Then set the specific time for the agricultural training, and stipulate that Xiang Yong must participate in the training during the period. For the rest of the busy farming or vacation periods, Xiang Yong can not report. ”

"If the township is ranked in the top ten in the assessment, the tun chief will be rewarded with one tael of silver, the first three will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and the first will be rewarded with five taels of silver, but the tun chief can not delay production, and the promotion of the tun chief must be measured according to various production indicators and team training conditions."

In addition, young people participate in training, subsidize a bucket of rice and wheat every month, and give a silver tael at the end of the year. In the assessment once every three months, if you can get the top 1,000 in gunnery and queue, you will be rewarded with one tael of silver, the top 100 will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and the top 10 will be rewarded with five taels of silver. ”

Zhang Buyun carefully understood the meaning and influence of it, and stipulated that the training time was to draw a line between the tun commander and the group training.

The assessment of the township courage is linked to the interests of the regiment commander, which can allow the tun commander to squeeze out some time for the regiment to practice the township courage when the farm is busy, so that the two sides of the original conflict have common interests. If the production is delayed, it cannot be promoted. If the relationship with the group training is not handled well, and the township Yong is at the bottom of the assessment, he cannot be promoted.

Give Xiang Yong a bucket of rice and wheat every month, and give a tael of silver at the end of the year, which can dispel Xiang Yong's resentment. If you get a good score in the assessment, you can get a silver reward, which improves the positive surname of Xiang Yong. Although the wool came out of the sheep, Zhang Buyun was still surprised by this generous treatment.

The Zhao family is simply fighting hard.
