Bandits are like digging voles, every time they dig a vole hole, in addition to harvesting a vole, they can also harvest the food of a vole hole.

Yi Feng swept away hundreds of large and small forts at the north and south feet of Yanshan and Daqing Mountain, in addition to moving more than 200,000 people, but also harvested countless money and grain, although most of the cottages were mainly robbed, but in fact, there were also some family members to carry out some simple planting and grazing, after breaking through the cottages, the warehouses of each cottage were more or less piled up with at least three months of rations, as well as cattle, sheep and horses in the livestock pen, these livestock and grain were all transported back to Huaihuang, so that Uncle Zhang and others in charge of food were relieved, This grain harvest is gratifying, just a peach cottage, harvested more than 10,000 stone of grain. The grain transported back from each village has finally passed a million stones, which is really in response to that sentence, horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, people have no windfall, and no matter how fast they rob.

Although there are more than 300,000 people in Huai Famine at present, even if each person averages one pound of grain per day, 300,000 people will consume nearly 3,000 stone of grain a day, and 100,000 stone of grain a month. And this is only under the minimum standard, and those war horses, livestock, etc. are not counted. What's more, there are so many troops raised at the moment, and the monthly salaries and monthly rations add up to a large amount. But at least, it can make Huaihuang breathe a sigh of relief, with this batch of grain, it can last for at least more than half a year.

After temporarily solving the most urgent food problem, Huaihuang Town also relaxed a little. There was no fort left in Yanshan Daqingshan, and they were either exterminated or surrendered, or they fled early and fled farther west, or went north and south, as far as they could. The suppression of bandits and relocation of the people then relied on a paragraph, Yi Feng began to focus on the training of the whole army, and the commanders of each battalion and regiment were appointed, Yi Feng attached great importance to the new Huaihuang army, but he did not grasp it all. All he did was to work out the system of the Huaihuang Army, and then personally selected the officers at the battalion and regiment levels, and then the officers of each battalion and regiment, the battalion general selected the officers at the capital level, the regiment commander selected the team level officers, the commander of the capital selected the captain, and the team leader selected the army commander, so that the officers were selected and appointed at the next level.

After all battalions and regiments of the New Army are organized and organized, they will be filled with soldiers and horses, and then the training will be carried out after the reorganization. Yi Feng set up a lecture hall and personally gave lessons to the officers of the capital team, and set up a teaching team to let Sima Dejiao, Yang Wei, Qin Qiong and other officers give lectures, and invited Wei Zheng and other civil servants to give cultural lessons to the trained officers.

Yi Feng attaches great importance to the training of the new army, and in addition to the rotation training of officers at all levels, Yi Feng also establishes recruit corps in each battalion. When all recruits enter the camp, they must first undergo basic recruit training, which lasts for three months, and each recruit team has a special instructor.

Now in Huaihuang Town, in addition to the garrison regiments of each city and the garrison of each village, the newly formed Huaihuang Army has more than 10,000 people, from officers to soldiers, all of whom are training.

At the beginning of the training, there was still some chaos, but there were strict regulations on all aspects of military training under the discipline code, and instructors and instructors at all levels quickly became familiar with it, and the training was on the right track. In this way, Yi Feng didn't need to focus on military training except for occasionally going to the martial arts hall to attend classes.

The battalions and regiments were training on a large scale, and Yi Feng was not idle, he began to be busy with the situation in the border market these days.

Yi Feng sent those prisoners of war to build roads in Huaihuang, connecting Huaihuang Liancheng with the thirteen cities below, widening and leveling the road surface, and at the same time connecting the thirteen cities with each other, building roads, and on these roads, building a new inspection station every hundred miles, setting up supply stations such as Didian, and connecting the villages where the various garrisons are located with Zhucheng, and finally taking Huaihuang as the center, taking the thirteen cities as the fulcrum, and then connecting the various inspection stations and garrison supply stations as the terminal, and connecting them all with various roads, In the end, a large network was formed in all directions.

Now, every day, as long as they step into the caravan in Huaihuang, their information will be transmitted back to Huaihuang Town as soon as possible through this network that extends in all directions.

"Yi Shuai, the express sent by the Erlong Inspection Division, the caravan of the Sun family in Shanggu, Hebei Province has left the customs ditch and is coming to Huaihuang, they have ten cargo houses, and a full 1,600 camels are loaded with no less than 6,000 stones. Well, this is the list of goods they carried, mainly silk, tea, porcelain, spices, gold and silver ornaments, copperware, etc. ”

"What a caravan!" Yi Feng looked at the bill of goods on it and said with a smile, "It's a pity that there is no food." ”

Wei Zheng said with a smile on the side: "Don't sell salaries for a hundred miles, don't sell rice for thousands of miles, sell grain to the outside of the country, the road is long, the transportation is difficult, the cost is too high, and it is not cost-effective at all, so these big caravans will not do such a loss-making business." ”

"But we need food, this place is really not suitable for growing grain, even if it is grazing, it can't feed the more than 300,000 people now." It is possible to grow grain in Huaifa, but this is a staggered area of agriculture, and there is a very unfavorable condition for growing grain, lacking, except for some lakes that can grow some grain, there is no harvest at all in other places. What's more, in Yi Feng's plan, Huai Huang will not work hard to grow grain, he plans to properly cultivate some land around the cities, but these lands will not grow wheat and millet, but will make some vegetables and fruits to supply the cities. After all, grain can still be transported from outside, and fresh fruits and vegetables are difficult to transport and supply from afar. As for grain, in the plan that Yi Feng considered, in the end, he had to rely on external grain transportation, and mainly had to transport grain from the Central Plains. As long as Huaihuang Border City is set up, he has full confidence that he can solve the food problem.

"Take the list of goods of the Sun family's caravan to the trading hall for registration and filing, and add it to tomorrow's business newspaper."

After Sun Ping and the Sun family's caravan passed through four inspection stations in a row, they finally saw Huaihuang Sanlian City standing on the grassland like three peaks from a distance.

"The caravan is waiting outside the city first, and I'll go into the city to investigate." Sun Ping was cautious and did not immediately bring the camel caravan into the city. It's not that he is reluctant to pay that amount of money to enter the city, but before the situation is unknown, he will not rashly bring this batch of goods into Huaihuang.

After the arrangement, Sun Ping took a few stewards and several guards and rode to Huaihuang City. At the gate of the city, Sun Ping and the others were directly released because they did not carry goods and were not searched. After Sun Ping passed the checkpoint, he also stopped to observe, and when he entered the city, as long as he did not carry goods, then he would not deliver the goods and would not be exempted from inspection. However, if they carried livestock, they were forced to buy a dung bag, five cents each, made of belts and sackcloth, and tied to the horse's buttocks, which, according to those in charge, was to keep the city clean and clean, and told them that it was strictly forbidden for cattle to defecate on the streets in the city, and if they violated, they would be punished with heavy fines.

Carrying goods into the city is to pay, and the inspection department of the charging standard is about the same, only according to the weight of the charge, not according to the value of the goods, each stone of goods about two cents into the city, but for some goods are completely exempt from the city fee, such as the grain and vegetables into the city, slaughtered cattle and sheep, etc., and charcoal, these are not charged. Seeing this, Sun Ping was thoughtful.

After his subordinates tied a dung pocket to the buttocks of several horses, Sun Ping walked to the city.

After entering the city, Sun Ping's first impression was lively, the streets were rubbing shoulders, and there were people and cars everywhere, but everyone strictly followed the rules of the soldiers when entering the city, and the vehicles went to the middle. The streets of Huaihuang are really wide, twenty steps wide, and what amazes Sun Ping even more is the flow of vehicles and people on this street. The people on this street were clearly distinguished, and they all followed the rule of going to the right, so that the people who came and went each took half of the road, and there was no confusion at all, and he even saw that there was a soldier in the middle of the road at a distance to direct the road. What surprised him even more was this twenty-step street, in the middle of the street can be paralleled four cars, not to mention, on both sides there is a curb slightly higher than the middle road, each about two steps wide, the riders can not walk on this, only the people on foot walk.

"This is a sidewalk, no horseback riding!" An old man in orange clothes stood in front of them and said unceremoniously.

"Who is this old man?" Sun Ping asked.

"I'm from the Sanitation Department of Huaihuang Town!" The old man in orange replied.

"Sanitation?" Sun Ping was a little puzzled, the word sanitation sounded very atmospheric, like some military yamen in Huaihuang Town, and then look at this old man, wearing an orange coat and an orange hat also looks like some kind of uniform, and this old man's appearance is imposing, as if he has been a soldier. Sun Ping didn't know what kind of yamen this sanitation office was for a while, so he had to step forward with a smile, and secretly pinched a piece of silver in the palm of his hand and stuffed it into the old man's hand.

The old man glanced at the ingot of silver, chuckled, as if he was a little disdainful, "This son doesn't have to be like this, old man, I'm actually just a street sweeper, but to remind you to abide by the traffic rules of Huaihuang City, see that you are also entering the city for the first time, next time remember, walk to the right, and you can't go on the sidewalk on horseback." With that, the old man left, walked to the wall of the shop, leaned over and picked up a broom, and continued to sweep the street.

"Damn, it's really a street sweeper!" A guard who was bluffed by the old man just now finally couldn't help but speak.

Sun Ping shook his head, "I think it's good, there are no rules, there is no circle, this desolate city is full of novelty, lively, and it is not simple." ”

"It's so lively here, you see there are shops on both sides of the street, how many shops must be there?" Sun Ping has been to many places, including Daxing and Luoyang, but whether it is the capital or the local county seat, it is basically the shape of the fang, there is a fang in the city, there is a fang in the fang, the market is a separate corner of the city, in addition to the market, the street between the fang and the fang, all are high fang walls, except for the official residence, it is impossible to open doors and windows on the fang wall, let alone open shops.

This kind of street frontage is full of shops, and the street is full of pedestrians, which really amazes Sun Ping.

Just in amazement, I suddenly heard a child in front of me shouting: "Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, Huaihuang Business Daily, today's front page headlines, the second auction of the exchange tomorrow, this auction has a large number of goods, Huaihuang snow salt, ice salt, snow, rock sugar, etc. are also on the auction list" r1152
