Officials in Xuanda are now glad that a large number of displaced people have fled to the outside of the city.

Under the continuation of the drought, the arrogance of the thieves in Shanxi became more and more arrogant, and most of the thieves gathered with Gao Yingxiang, and successively attacked Puzhou, Shouyang, Zezhou and other places, claiming to be 200,000 people, and the whole Jin Dynasty vibrate.

The imperial court urgently transferred the Zuo Liangyu Department of Liaodong Town and the Herenlong Department of Shaanxi to enter the Jin Dynasty and return to the Shanxi Governor Xu Dingchen to control it, and the Liaodong Town Zhang Yingchang, Po Ximu, and Ai Wannian Department to Zhang Zongheng to control it, stationed in Fenzhou, and attacked from two roads, trying to destroy the people's rebellion army in Shanxi in one fell swoop. These armies are the elite of the Ming Dynasty. The Liaodong Zhenjun confronted the Jurchens all the year round, and it was a strong army raised by the power of the Ming Dynasty, and the He Renlong Department was the most elite department in the Qin army, and it often beat the people's rebellion army in Shaanxi.

Although the number of thieves was large, there were many factions and lack of experience in the confrontation, so they were defeated by the official army in successive frontal battles. Zhang Zongheng supervised the Guanning cavalry of Liaodong Town in the south of Fenzhou to defeat Gao Yingxiang's troops and forced them to flee into the Mopan Mountain.

Many battles were unfavorable, Gao Yingxiang led his troops to cross the Taihang Mountains in the south, attacked Jiyuan, Qinghua and other prefectures, smashed Shunde and Zhending, and forced Gyeonggi, and there was a big uproar in Beijing. Just when Zhang Zongheng was anxious, he didn't expect that Lu Xiangsheng's subordinate Tianxiong Army, who was reorganizing the armament in the three prefectures of Jinan, gave Gao Yingxiang a head-on blow and once again routed him and drove him back to Taihang Mountain.

War horses have become the signature business of the business alliance, and the thieves have a huge demand for war horses, and now they can be sold at a high price even if they are inferior horses.

The inferior horses of the grassland can also be better than the good horses of the Han land, Gao Yingxiang made every effort to build cavalry with all his strength in the looted property, and only the cavalry could take the lead in the battle with the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, whether to fight or flee, to come and go freely. The war horses in the grassland are also limited, Zhai Zhe's own cavalry is matched with war horses, and the Tumut department must also maintain enough livestock.

At the end of September, Zhai Zhe led the newly recruited troops and horses to move to the bank of the Yellow River in the Tuoketuo grassland, and convened a meeting of Han generals.

Xiao Zhiyan was the commander of the left-wing household of the Han Department, and he commanded 850 elite light cavalry.

Che Feng was led by the Tumut cavalry, with more than 300 people under his command.

Lei Yanqian's heavy cavalry commander, with 300 people under his command, all strong men and good horses, with axes and sledgehammers as sharp weapons, priority is given to armor.

Meng Kang was the commander of the right-wing household, and he commanded 800 horse thieves and light horses.

Zuo Ruo's deputy commander of the cavalry of the Chinese army, assisted Zhai Zhe in commanding the Chinese army of 4,000 people.

Geng Guang was the chief of the guard of the Shang League, in charge of the affairs of the Sei.

Zong Mao and Wang Yi were deacons of the main government, and were in charge of the money and grain of the Han Department.

When he was naturalized outside the city, the white armor of the Jurchens brightened Zhai Zhe's eyes. The Chahars were chased by the Jurchens in the steppe so wolf-bèi. The Mongols were not bad at war, and they were not unskilled in cavalry and archery, and it was difficult to win a victory in battles with the Jurchens for many years, in addition to internal discord, weapons and armor were far inferior to those of the Jurchens was also an important reason. He did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build a heavy armored knight for Lei Yanqian's department, because he was the only one in the Han village who was the most suitable heavy armored cavalry commander.

Because he was worried that Meng Kang would offend too many Shanxi merchants because of his murderous nature, Zhai Zhe transferred him out of Montenegro, and his soldiers and horses trained with him, and Xiao Zhiyan was responsible for killing Hu and Kouwai. In addition, Lei Yanqian's troops were stationed in Hanzhai and trained soldiers and horses nearby.

Transferring the brigade of men and horses away from Lao Ya Mountain, Zhai Zhe wanted to let the recruits familiarize themselves with war horses in the grassland and be proficient in horsemanship, and secondly, the passing caravans and Tumut herdsmen at the foot of Lao Ya Mountain made him uneasy, and he did not want the strength of the Han Department to be exposed early.

Zhai Zhe ordered Zong Mao to register and make a register of the various subordinates, making it clear that the expansion of the Han army had ended here, and anyone who wanted to recruit subordinates had to obtain his permission. It was already very difficult to support these people, and even the horses of the recruits were borrowed on credit, and if they expanded further, even the merchant alliance would soon go bankrupt.

"The Han soldiers can \u every month

1ooo

5f97 to one tael of silver, the captain, the centurion, and the commander of five hundred men in turn doubled the salary. The salary is directly released by the principal's office, and the commanders of each team are no longer passed, and the military salary of the commanders of each department is unified at 200 taels per month. ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone didn't expect that Zhai Zhe would really give soldiers a military salary. No one will think that they have a lot of money in their hands, even if they don't give money, the Han soldiers will obey their orders obediently, but they can't train the army that Zhai Zhe wants. This is Zhai Zhe's deliberate decision, if you want people to work hard, you must make them agree that it is worth it from the bottom of their hearts.

The military salaries of the Ming Dynasty are in the hands of generals from all over the country, and deductions are even more commonplace. Zhai Zhe cut off the idea of these people from the beginning, but the military salary he gave to the commanders of the various ministries was not low.

Xiao Zhiyan was worried and reminded: "In this way, the silver consumed every month is seven or eight thousand taels, can the Han Department hold on?" These people are now happy to receive the money, and it will not be so simple to cut off their salaries in the future. ”

"Mountain people have their own tricks!" Zhai Zhe is confident.

Since the secret discussion with Xiao Zhiyan and Zuo Ruo was rejected, Lei Yanqian has been avoiding Zhai Zhe, and he didn't dare to look at Zhai Zhe's eyes during the military discussion.

It wasn't until Zhai Zhe appointed himself as the commander of the heavy cavalry that he breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed that Zhai Zhe didn't know. Although there are only three hundred heavy horses, the money spent is more than a thousand light horses, and his team of men and horses is one of the core forces of the Han Department. The commander's monthly salary of two hundred taels is not low, and the monthly loot in Daming is only this amount, but Zhai Zhe's tricks to release the military salary still make him feel a little uncomfortable.

"The drills of all departments should be paid close attention to, and in the next year, when the war on the steppe resumes, I don't want the Han cavalry to meet the Mongols or Jurchens like sheep and wolves." Zhai Zhe ended the military discussion with such a sentence.

Tokto steppe.

Zuo Ruo began to teach the horse thief recruits how to march and camp, send scouts, make fires and cook, arrange secret sentinels, and give unified orders. How to form a real army, Zuo Ruo, who was born in the army, understood the details, and together with Zhai Zhe, Meng Kang and Ji Hong and other recruits were all drawing nutrients from it.

The exhibition of the business alliance grew into Han \u5b

12netbsp; E8 provided great convenience for obtaining craftsmen, in addition to recruiting craftsmen from the refugees, Geng Guang coerced and lured many craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty, turning Hanzhai into a large workshop, and the most manufactured were weapons and armor.

The Han village hidden in the mountains and forests is the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

From the grassland to the open area of the intersection between the two mountains of Hanzhai, Zhai Zhe ordered Zongmao to build a row of restaurants and shops.

Although it is very simple, it is the only shop in the grassland, and it is only open to the Han people, and of course everything is not cheap. Whenever the wind and the sun are good, the Hanbu people after training will always gather here to drink, fart, and talk about women. Especially on the fifteenth day of each month, on the night of the full moon, it is particularly lively here, and the military salary was only paid the day before yesterday, and this day is a fixed holiday.

The steppe has no relatives and no reason, it is lonely and boring, and the training of the Han cavalry is boring and exhausting in peacetime. Of course, when I have free time, I want to find a place to relax, although the silver is good, it is not as attractive as the wine, and with a plate of cooked beef with dipping sauce, it is like heaven compared to the struggle on the line of life and death a year ago.

Of course, there are also people who will want to support their families, a few acres of fertile land, and will save up their military salaries little by little, but they do not have a suitable place to store them.

Zhai Zhe ordered the presiding government to set up a money village in conjunction with the Daming merchant alliance, and only needed to deposit the silver and leave the stub, which could be seen at any time when needed. Zong Mao thought very thoughtfully, it didn't matter if the stub was lost, the name and handprint of the person who stored the silver two were recorded.

That's what merchants do.

Xiao Zhiyan and the others were dumbfounded, they couldn't come up with these methods. But for the people of the merchant family, these are only the most common means, during the orthodox years of the Ming Dynasty, when the treasure money was depreciated, the money village and the silver number have risen in the north and south of the Yangtze River, only a few account gentlemen, and the money flowing out will soon flow in again.

Zong Mao asked Ning Sheng to invite four accounting offices who were proficient in calculation to assist him in managing the income and expenditure of Hanzhai in an orderly manner.
