Liu Jurong, Cao Quanhui and Lu Yanhong's battle against Huangchao ended, Lu Yanhong led the army back to Shannan West Road, this news, Li Rupei quickly learned through the scouts that the course of history has not changed, because of the special situation of the imperial court, because Liu Jurong wanted to protect himself, the officers and soldiers did not continue to pursue Huang Chao, so that Huang Chao got a chance to breathe, but Huang Chao will not continue to attack Shannan East Road and Shannan West Road, but turned to attack Jiangnan Province and Huainan Road.

This also indicates that Lu Yanhong has been given a chance to breathe, and after returning to Liangzhou, it is very likely that he will begin to exterminate the Iron Blood Army on a large scale.

The army led by Lu Yanhong left Liangzhou for more than two months, during which the integration and training of the iron-blooded army were basically in place, and Li Rupei quickly made a decision to occupy and completely control Bazhou before Lu Yanhong returned to Shannan West Road.

A qiē is the need of the real situation.

The Iron Blood Army has expanded to 6,000 people, this number is nothing in the eyes of the imperial court and many festival envoys, compared with the number of troops they have, the Iron Blood Army is too weak, but Li Rupei knows that the cost of the army is huge, and if there is no fixed tax income, it is difficult to maintain this army.

Li Rupei's requirements for the iron-blooded army are very strict, in terms of military discipline, almost harsh, never allow looting, let alone harass the people, this is completely different from the attitude of the imperial court and the envoys of the festival, but this reveals a huge problem, there must be enough money and food to feed the army.

The strength of the army depends on the implementation of military discipline and regulations, the sense of honor of the soldiers, and the cohesion of the army, but more important is the guarantee of military salaries.

A good example of this is the army under the authority of the Rulers.

For a long time, Jiedu only paid attention to the input of the Ya Army, and the combat effectiveness of the Daozhì Ya Army was strong, but the Yawai Army and the Waizhen Soldiers had almost no combat effectiveness, because of the corruption of military discipline, the Yawai Army and the Waizhen Soldiers were hated by the people, and because of the looting of the Yawai Army and the Waizhen Soldiers, a large number of people could not survive and became bandits, or directly followed the Huangchao rebellion.

The survival of this model also directly led to the growth of the Huangchao army, which eventually captured Chang'an and established a political power.

As a traverser, Li Rupei will never repeat the mistakes of the past, he wants to open up a virtuous circle of roads, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and let the iron-blooded army continue to become stronger, which requires the occupation of more territory and the support of taxes.

Bazhou is a grain-producing area, with sufficient water sources and a suitable climate, and it is a good choice to gradually expand its strength after occupying Bazhou.

The original 800 people in the cottage, after several battles, there are still more than 500 people left, these more than 500 people, have become the backbone of the iron-blooded army, the combat effectiveness is extremely strong, no one will believe that the original bandits, after more than half a year of training and fighting, quickly grew up and became the core of the iron-blooded army.

Under the drive and influence of these 500 people, the sergeants who continued to enter the Iron Blood Army, under the high-intensity training, quickly got rid of the slippery qi on their bodies, and their understanding was very different.

As for Li Lang's prestige among the Iron Army, it is even more incomparable, it is not an exaggeration to say that without Li Lang, the Iron Blood Army may collapse in the shortest possible time.

After Li Rupei made a decision, the preparations began quickly, and it only took three days to complete the preparations and wait for the order.

Qian Shiqu, who became Li Rupei's staff, finally proposed his first construction.

More than two months have passed, Qian Shiqu has not been by Li Rupei's side most of the time, he has always been in the barracks of the Iron Army, Qian Shiqu himself also understands that the Iron Blood Army will have many expedition tasks in the future, and he is just thinking about making suggestions, I am afraid it is mainly in the battle, the last time he served as a military advisor, it was a failure on the whole, due to his lack of understanding of the army, and also from Dewey's distrust.

The handling of Dewey was the first thing Qian Shiqu experienced after he became a staff member.

Although Dewey was captured, during the period of recuperation, his attitude was very stubborn, he was bent on allegiance to Lu Yanhong, and asked to be killed, quite a soldier died as a confidant, Li Rupei once asked Qian Shiqu's opinion to see how to deal with Dewey, at that time, Qian Shiqu's construction was to kill Dewey, in order to deter others.

Qian Shiqu's construction is decent, Gao Chibang and others also built a construction to kill Dewey, and even Yu Chenghui and Tan Mingxiao acquiesced in killing Dewey's construction.

But Li Rupei did not agree, the reason is also very simple, Dewey experienced two consecutive failures, betrayed Lu Yanhong's trust, lost nearly 10,000 troops, and faced Lu Yanhong without shame, at this time, I am afraid that I want to be killed by the Iron Army, in order to repay Lu Yanhong, that is to say, Dewey's heart is dead, in this case, there is no need for the Iron Army to kill Dewey.

On the contrary, after the Iron Blood Army healed Dewey's wounds, he sent Dewey back to Liangzhou.

Many people don't understand Li Rupei's decision, but Qian Shiqu knows the meaning, and he secretly admires that those who are not eloquent and strategic cannot make such a decision.

After Dewey returned to Liangzhou, it was impossible to continue to be trusted, Lu Yanhong was probably itching with hatred, and he couldn't help but do it, Dewey faced three endings, one was to be killed by Lu Yanhong to show the public, the second was forced to commit suicide in shame, and the third was to survive, and there was no future from now on, like a walking corpse.

Li Rupei was unwilling to kill Dewey, and returned the contradiction to Lu Yanhong, and the benefits were self-evident.

Even people like Dewey can be released by the Iron Army, which shows that Li Lang is broad-minded, the prime minister can support the boat in his belly, and the Iron Blood Army is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness.

It can be analyzed from another angle, Li Lang is actually extremely ruthless, Dewey expects to be killed by the Iron Army, at least to get a good reputation, Li Lang just didn't give him a chance, let him recuperate, and wait until he recovered from his injury, release Dewey, and return it to Lu Yanhong, specifically to block Lu Yanhong, Dewey's best ending is to commit suicide in Liangzhou, apologize for his sins with death, and retain his poor self-esteem.

Whether Dewey was beheaded or chose to commit suicide, it was enough to damage Lu Yanhong's reputation.

Killing birds with one stone, a rough soldier can't make such a decision, and a suave reader can't think of so much.

In fact, Qian Shiqu has always wondered why Li Lang is so young, why he is so old and spicy in doing things, almost leakless, any decision is considered very far-reaching, even he, a weathered scholar, is ashamed of himself.

Qian Shiqu has also seen a lot of young people from large families in Liangzhou, who seem to be talented, and the most of them are indulged in the wind and moon, and a few are also proud of their poetry and painting.

But Li Lang is too good, and the excellent is admired.

Commanded four battles, all of which were victorious, although he was in the remote county town of Wuling, he was concerned about the situation of the entire imperial court, especially the decision to postpone the attack on Bazhou, which took into account the fact that the imperial army fought against Huangchao and avoided shocks.

It is precisely after knowing these things that Qian Shiqu paid great attention to observation and became Li Lang's staff, he had the opportunity to get in touch with all the information detected by the scouts, and through the analysis of these information, Qian Shiqu's understanding was also constantly adjusted.

Therefore, the first construction proposed by Qian Shiqu was carefully considered.

There was a map in the wing, and Qian Shiqu pointed to Pengzhou on the map and talked eloquently.

"Li Lang, I thought that while capturing Bazhou, we should take into account Pengzhou, the border between Bazhou and Pengzhou, the specific situation of the two places is similar, the foreign army and the foreign soldiers stationed in Pengzhou have also suffered heavy blows, and the combat effectiveness is not strong, and even those who are afraid of the iron-blooded army, in this case, the iron-blooded army can completely divide the army into two ways and occupy Bazhou and Pengzhou at the same time."

"From the perspective of tax maintenance, the taxes in Bazhou and Pengzhou can barely maintain the expenses of the Iron Army, just in Bazhou, it is difficult for the people to bear high taxes, and Li Lang is never allowed to increase the taxes of the people, which also determines that as much territory as possible is conducive to the development of the Iron Army."

"In terms of geographical location, Wuling County and Qingyuan County are located between Bazhou and Pengzhou, Wuling County has become the most stable stronghold of the Iron Army, and the foundation of the Iron Blood Army in this area is the best, even if it occupies the city of Bazhou, I think that the Iron Blood Army should still be stationed in Wuling County, and in terms of stable strongholds, it should also occupy Bazhou and Pengzhou together."

"Finally, in terms of the impact, the occupation of Bazhou and Pengzhou must have caused a great impact in Shannan West Road, and even the imperial court will be alarmed, but all over the Tang Dynasty, there are countless such situations, and it is polite to say that Lu Yanhong also used such means to be able to serve as the envoy of Shannan West Road, and the method finally adopted by the imperial court is also to admit the existence of facts, and the iron-blooded army occupies Bazhou and Pengzhou, as long as the local law and order can be maintained, the court will not deliberately pursue it, and it will not be done in the end." ……

A smile appeared on Li Rupei's face, Qian Shiqu was able to propose such a proposal, which was the result of sinking into the role, which showed that from now on, Qian Shiqu would do his best to make suggestions and occupy Bazhou and Pengzhou at the same time, which is indeed an excellent construction, which is conducive to the development and growth of the iron-blooded army.
