Chapter 160: Cheng Jiaolong (II)

In April of the twelfth year of Yong'an, the army of Xu Zhitun, but only meant, issued 50,000 stone grain and 50,000 taels of silver

After receiving the holy decree, Fang Xin immediately issued an order to carry out the military cantonment

Naturally, the military cantonments are not swarmed, first of all, within the existing army itself

The military households of the three towns and five guards were all reorganized, and Fang Xin took the opportunity to divide them into three classes: elite soldiers, regular soldiers, and new soldiers, and those who stayed behind the customs were not given land, and those who left the customs were given 10 acres, 20 acres, and 30 acres of land according to different grades, and some wounded and disabled veterans were arranged as military commanders in Tuntian

The Great Chu established the country, and the military households also used to get the land, but one hundred and fifty years later, the population multiplied, and the land had long been unbearable for distribution, coupled with annexation, corruption, deduction, and a large number of criminals exiled to the frontier as soldiers, so the military households have been in trouble and cannot make a living

This time, the response was better than expected, most of the military households were willing to go out of the customs Tuntian, because it was their own family, so the soldiers immediately mobilized, and Sandaozi County, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses morale like a rainbow, waiting at any time to meet the invasion of the barbarian army. \\

Fang Xin was also very well organized, and the military households with combat effectiveness first carried out tuntian, and the strong homeless people participated in labor to obtain food, and first planned to build 20 fortresses, which were distributed in various strongholds in the county, and then the strongholds in tuntian were divided and controlled

Even if the tuntian is divided into five batches, but tens of thousands of people, plus tens of thousands of military households, not to mention the troublesome relationship inside, the people of the shogunate, all the people and horses are drawn out, and the matter is completed, and the sky is dark

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Xin is also justifiably training and enriching the shogunate team. = The shogunate is only semi-official, so the establishment inside can be adjusted

"Lord, there is one person in the middle of the current mansion, who is in charge of the overall situation."

"There is one Wen Bo Counselor, four Wen Bo Deputy Counselors, and ten people are engaged in household registration and document exchanges."

"There is one counselor Cangcao and four deputy counselors Cangcao. Engaged in ten people, in charge of the warehouse and money and rice exchanges. ”

"There is one counselor of Jianbing Cao and four deputy counselors of Bing Cao. Engaged in ten people, in charge of the soldiers' files. and new camp training. ”

"There is one cavalry counselor, and the deputy counselor, and the shogunate is in charge of two hundred and fifty horsemen!"

"After doing it, the officials will be recorded separately!"

These personnel must be met and approved by Fang Xin one by one, which can be very painstaking work, and Fang Xin is busy with the rounds.

When the matter was finally settled, another man was heard saying, "Lord, here is the list of the long lands of the forts." Please also ask the Lord to decide. ”

This person is Jiang Qingbai, and the holy decree promised him to be the county magistrate of Sandaozi County, but his attitude became more and more respectful and he gave up his hands.

Spread out the papers. In his eyes, there were twenty names inside, Fang Xin looked at it, and then looked at the appendix at the back, all of them were originally veterans in the military household, but most of them were Wu Changhuo Chang and the like, not the original command system, and nodded. He said, "Let these twenty come to me once." ”

"Yes. \\\ Lord. "Jiang Qingbai's original fame was just a show, and he was only twenty years old. Many people do not understand why he came to make this county order, which is said to be a county order, but at least a third of its power will be under its jurisdiction in the future.

However, these days, this person has a good schedule, and he should think about it, although this county order is an empty shelf, everything is reported, but he is also doing a good job, and he is very good at organizing and coordinating.

Fang Xin smiled: "Qingbai, please take a seat, you did a good job." ”

"This matter concerns 100,000 people, so dare to slack off? The Lord has the grace of promoting me, and the lower officials can only repay me. He said with a straight face.

"How do you feel about this county these days?"

"Back to the Lord, Sandaozi County is okay, there are not many mountains and hills, there is a lot of farmland that can be developed, but there is only one Meili Snow River in the county, and the water and irrigation of each fort are very problematic."

"Well, the problem of water is the well, when the forts are built, wells must be drilled, and channels must be dug nearby to divert water, and as for the things that divert water, it is still the waterwheel."

At this time, in fact, the development of various regions of the empire is seriously unbalanced, Fang Xin knows that the introduction of advanced technology has a powerful reaction force on the plane, which is difficult to do, but even if he doesn't use this, just introducing the technology of some developed regions is enough, he said indifferently: "This matter, I have already sent people to the south to get hundreds of old farmers and craftsmen who cultivate the fields, the last time the message came, it is almost there, you can use them to improve the tun."

"Yes, sir." This province is mostly hilly and mountainous, and it is too early to say that it is too early to say, and when some counties are recovered, we can use the method I used to build a barrage in the past, and the hills can also raise some horses and livestock. ***.***”

"Yes, my lord served as the prefect of Nanyun County, and he used this method to reclaim 100,000 acres of land, and tens of thousands of people lived. Jiang Qingbai said.

"Well, you don't need to say much, do you think it's too late to build a batch in January?"

"Back to the Lord, the army and the people do it, if it does not involve the reclamation of fields and the replanting of grain, then one month is enough, a batch of January, and the military households are arranged first, which can not only reassure the hearts of the soldiers, but also make the displaced people scattered and placed in it in the future.

"This year, it is completely possible to complete the tuning of more than 100,000 people, but even if there is some replanting, the harvest is not large, and not only can the grain not be collected, but it must be appeased."

Fang Xin listened to it and said with a wry smile: "It's okay not to collect grain this year, but it's difficult to appease, there is not much food in Benfu, and the army also needs food!" ”

Even if Fang Xin has grain, he will not send food to the people, at most, when the green and yellow are not harvested, just give them some thin porridge to barely survive, and now the whole policy is to live a difficult life - this is four birds with one stone.

First of all, it is to reduce the suspicion and attention of the imperial court, originally according to the normal situation, there is not much food money, if Fang Xin has a large amount of food sent to the people, how can it be obtained, this situation is too abnormal, now although it is Tuntian, but the first year, difficult to live, struggling on the death line, it is normal.

The second is through this difficult process. The personnel of the shogunate of the new organization were trained, so that they quickly matured and qualified, which was very important for the future.

The third is to gain the gratitude of the people, in fact, according to the study of power and strategy, direct food donation will not bring gratitude, and organizing them to improve through hard work will obtain true gratitude

Fourth, also before the situation is ripe. Reducing the systematic reliance on commerce also reduced the attention of the imperial court in this regard

Jiang Qingbai didn't know Fang Xin's intentions and listened. There was a pause in silence - it was true, although Fang Xin still had some food in his hand. But it is used to stabilize the morale of the army, and it cannot be taken out when it is idle.

After a few more words, he suddenly said: "Lord, Xia Guanxin has an old friend who has come here, and he has some talents and ambitions, and he is willing to recommend it to the Lord." ”

"Oh, so good, where are the others now? Invite me to see you. Fang Xin listened. He said with some surprise that with his caution, it should not be bad to recommend the local people.

"Just wait outside the door."

"So let him in." Fang Xin said. Today, of course, it is impossible for Fang Xin to learn anything from the thatched house, this kind of practice not only damages the prestige, but also makes people feel different.

Someone came out to give the order, and there was not much time, and one person came in, and when he entered the hall, he knelt down: "The villain is suitable." Meet the Governor. ”

Fang Xin looked at it first. I saw that he was about thirty years old, and he seemed to have been washed. There is no wind and dust.

Fang Xin looked up carefully, what he saw at this time was different, he saw that this person's green aura shrouded his whole body, almost half a foot, and the situation of his face should not be underestimated, at least he was a talent in one house and one place, he liked it in his heart, but everything was as usual on his face, and he asked about the situation carefully at the moment, and also asked some questions.

This person's face was calm, and he answered one by one, and when Fang Xin saw it, he smiled: "Very good, are you willing to work for my house?" ”

When the man heard this, he bowed down: "Feng Shi greets the Lord." ”

Although the official is small, it is not light, especially now, when the shogunate system has been relatively perfect, Fang Xin cannot be lighter than the personnel rules.

If this person is suspicious of the lack of officials, Fang Xin can only be helpless, and now seeing that he respectfully obeys the order, he is also happy, and immediately ordered to go down and let people prepare his official residence and etiquette.

After saying a few more words, let the two of them step back, and Wu Jie came up.

Now Wu Jie is in charge of a thousand soldiers, and he is also on an errand for training recruits.

"How many have you chosen?" When he came in, Fang Xin asked, the losses from the last war must be replenished.

"Back to the Lord, there are not many sturdy men." Wu Jie said respectfully: "Although it is claimed that there are 150,000 displaced people, there are only 50,000 qualified men in age, and only 10,000 people who are strong and strong enough to meet the standards for joining the army. ”

"Then we can only arrange Tuntian first, and then arrange it to the military camp in the service team!" Fang Xin thought for a while and said, "First arrange the work, open the mountain and cut the wood, build the fort project, and transport the grain and grass, all of which can be done." ”

The army consumes a lot of land, and as for the armor, saddle horses, equipment, and mattresses, this kind of trivial life involves an army of tens of thousands in size, and the matter has also become larger, so in fact, all armies have slave vassal teams—and when the military administration is completed in the future, these burdens can be borne by the local government, but the current situation in this province is impossible.

Moreover, these people, in fact, what they lack is nutrition, young men, as long as the nutrition follows in the future, they can become strong people, thinking of this, he remembered something again, and said: "In the new army, now the round of warfare, has already been a turn, right?" ”

Wu Jie listened, didn't know what to mean, and said, "Yes!" ”

"The act of beating grass and valleys will be stopped for the time being, and there will be a new order down." Fang Xin said.

"Yes, Lord." Wu Jie still responded simply.

If there was a literati, he must have shouted something benevolent, but Fang Xin didn't mean that.

The way of the art of war, peacetime, of course, is training and discipline, as well as cultivating obedience, this is the foundation, and there is nothing wrong with it, and the first time Fang Xin sent them to battle, it was also to let them see blood and open the edge.

However, the way of using the army, such as the master of the knife, pays attention to the artistic conception of Zhuangzi, with no thickness into the room, with more than less, so the knife is not damaged and sharpened.

For example, if you are sent out to fight guerrilla warfare now, you can open the blood ring once or twice, and in the future, you will have a score for training and command, but you can't go down often.

Relatively speaking, the recruits are fragile in the end, and the infantry is more difficult to defeat the barbarian cavalry.

Because courage is also based on survival and victory, when a soldier finds that courage and bravery are useless, if he wants to survive, he must find a way to survive on the battlefield - as long as he has this heart, he will become a soldier.

Fang Xin naturally won't be like this.

If it fails, the morale of the whole army will decline, and the way of the soldier will prevail in the army, and it will be unusable for a long time

The only way to get a strong soldier is to win all battles.

Fang Xin's plan for the second year is to solve part of the grain in the military cantonment, and then work hard to train, not to say that he will not attack, but he must choose the right troops and timing, and he must win every battle - this can be used to nourish the war and cultivate the elite division of a hundred battles.

Thinking of this, Fang Xin had already made up his mind to take charge of the military in the next two years, and even if he went out to fight in a small unit, he was also ordered by him to cultivate a division of a hundred battles.

As for the daily maintenance, it was given to the shogunate personnel first, and by now, Fang Xin had justifiably promoted some people, and gradually formed a relatively close small group, enough to maintain daily operations—and they must also maintain daily operations, after all, according to Fang Xin's mind, these people will be the center of the new empire in the future.

Now hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the province, where their hearts are, is revenge, as long as this can be completed, Fang Xin's position in this province and this army will be unshakable, so, this Fang Jiaolong will become a dragon!
