The Du family's generosity of borrowing 500 cavalry from the Gushi Army to help assist in the defense made Qin Zaidao and others surprised. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

You must know that in the southern towns where there is a lack of cavalry, five hundred cavalry is not a small number, which makes the officers of the Gushi Army think a little more highly of Jiang Feng's ability.

The construction of the Gushi city wall has also entered a climax, according to Jiang Feng's requirements, the moat outside the Gushi city that has been annihilated was dredged at the fastest speed, and the tributaries of the muddy water were injected, so that the moat that had been abandoned for many years came into play again.

At the same time, the sheep and horse wall was built on the inner side of the moat, and in view of the fact that the time for the construction of a permanent sheep and horse wall was not allowed, Jiang Feng required that the entire city wall should be surrounded by a three-meter-high wooden fence to strengthen the protection of the city wall.

The people in the entire Gushi City broke out with great enthusiasm after learning the news that the ant thieves were about to attack, and the ordinary people automatically joined the construction team, and the wealthy households in the city actively donated money and materials, which surprised Jiang Fengdu.

"The bricks are broken, and the terrain is low, so it would be better to rebuild it into a regimental building. ”

Jiang Feng saw He Decai meticulously inspecting along the city wall from a distance, and the county man who was traveling with him was crying with a sad face.

"Lord He, according to your request, this Gushi City has simply been pushed and rebuilt, the moat, the fence, and so many regimental buildings and corner towers have to be built, this is not counting the war shed, where can we get so many materials and money to support it?"

"Zhang Xiancheng, I just proposed which parts need to be repaired or supplemented according to Lord Jiang's requirements, as for whether the materials are enough and whether the money is enough, that is not the scope of my question, you should report to Chen County. ”

He Decai shook his head, with a helpless look.

"But Zhang Xiancheng, I suggest that you better launch more propaganda in the city, such as gathering those gentry and big families, and summing them up, especially those big families from Gwangju, they have all experienced the tragic situation of the war in Gwangju, and I am afraid that the possible consequences of the city destruction are even clearer. If the ant thieves break the city, it will be a burning of jade, rather than being burned or looted by the ant thieves, it is better to take it out to protect the city for the people, and the people of Gushi will remember their kindness, don't you say?"

"Lord He said well, Chen County Order, Zhang County Cheng, I thought that I could put a stone on the head of this county town as a monument, and engrave the names of those gentry and wealthy families who donated money and property on it, and keep it forever to commemorate it. Jiang Feng, who stepped forward, continued: "Our soldiers of the Gushi Army are using their own flesh and blood to defend their Gushi, I believe that the Gushi gentry should be able to understand that everything we do is for the safety of their lives and property, if anyone cannot set an example at this point, I think he should be spurned and punished!"

Jiang Feng's last sentence was already faintly filled with an eerie threat.

In such an emergency, if there is still someone who is unwilling to "contribute", then he can only "contribute" to the ant thieves.

The county also heard the unfinished meaning of Jiang Feng's words,

Jiang Feng, who had inspected the city for a while, returned to the military yamen in the field, which was originally stationed in the yamen, but since the Gushi Army was stationed in it, it naturally became the residence of the previous Yu Hou, and now it has become Jiang Feng's temporary residence.

After sending Du Li away, Gu Shijun began a large-scale reorganization and expansion.

The Gushi Army was rebuilt into five battalions, including the Tooth Battalion and the Independent Cavalry Battalion.

Zhang Ziyue served as the commander of the Ya Battalion, mainly concentrating the Gwangju Ya Army that had come to take refuge one after another for a period of time, plus some elite soldiers from the remnants of the old Gwangju Army who came to Guihui, and the number was 500 people.

Gu Minghai served as the commander of the middle battalion with the most neat establishment and combat effectiveness, mainly after selecting the elite of the original Gushi Army.

Huang Anjin, who was a blockbuster, served as the commander of the front battalion, absorbed some of the old Gwangju army and part of the old Gushi army that came to join him, and also made up 500 people, and began a planned large-scale training.

The left battalion was composed of some of the original solidified old army and the newly recruited sergeants in the early stage, and the combat effectiveness was the weakest.

Qin Zaidao was responsible for forming an independent cavalry battalion that did not belong to the five battalions of the Gushi Army, but it was limited to the current number of war horses, and there were only two cavalry battalions.

Jiang Feng also waited for the Gushi Army without suspense under the recommendation of everyone, and truly became the leader of the Gushi Army.

Of course, this Yu Hou can only be a fake position.

According to the practice of this era, the county army also belonged to the state army sequence, and the state army Marquis Yu was generally appointed by the state assassin office.

At present, although Gwangju is divided by the Yuan and Du families, it is still dominated by the Yuan family, including the three counties of Dingcheng, Guangshan, and Le'an, where the state is located, are all under the control of the Yuan family, and the Yuan family must have already sent an envoy to Chang'an to seek appointment.

It's just that the appointment of the post of state assassin needs to be approved by Chang'an, even if it is only a nominal recognition, but whether it is the Central Plains, Jianghuai or Jingchu, they basically follow this practice, first take a false post, and then obtain Chang'an's approval.

Of course, if you have a bad relationship with Chang'an, it is not uncommon for you to take a fake job for ten or eight years.

Even being appointed by Chang'an to someone else has also been, as long as you have the strength, this nominal appointment is not so important, but sometimes without this name, it seems that it is not so justifiable when doing certain things.

Regarding Qin Zaidao's decision to serve as the commander of the independent cavalry battalion, Jiang Feng also considered it again and again.

There is no doubt that the role of cavalry in an army will become greater and greater in the future, and it is irreplaceable, but at present, there are only a handful of people who can be qualified to command the cavalry battalion, except for Qin Zaidao, only Zhang Yue.

In terms of practical experience, Qin Zaidao is richer, and Zhang Yue also needs to firmly grasp the elite force of Yaying for Jiang Feng, which is completely subordinate to him and obeys his orders, so he can only make such a decision.

He Decai did not enter the Gushi Army for the time being, and was entrusted by Jiang Feng with the important task of repairing the entire Gushi City.

Jiang Feng thought that He Decai's character and temper were more capable of such tedious and unneglected affairs, especially at the moment, a person with a special relationship with Gu Shijun was needed to be in charge of this work.

After a week, Jiang Feng found that it was undoubtedly the wisest choice to let He Decai take charge of this work.

From the dredging of the moat to the new repair of the sheep and horse wall, from the statistics of bows and crossbows and armor in the warehouse to the preparation of rolling wood, rocks and lime, He Decai can meticulously and clearly supervise them one by one, meticulously.

There was a slight unsatisfactory place, He Decai did not point out vaguely and resolutely, and did not make up for it according to the unforgiving request, so that Zhang Xiancheng, who cooperated with his work, complained bitterly, and said that the accumulation of Gushi County for several years would be defeated by He Decai.
