However, regardless of whether it is an official prostitute or a private prostitute, what can be brought to the border army is one of the large annual military expenditures.

Every year, the taxes collected from the area around the Sangjia tile area in the Border Marshal's Mansion have more than one million taxes every year during the time of the great grandfather and the great grandfather. By the time of Emperor Wu Yuwenyong, taxes began to drop significantly.

Since then, it has decreased year by year, and the income of the Qinglou Flower Hall, because it is too small, is directly transferred, and the government at all levels of Zisai is used for public use.

But no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, and this privately operated hook fence, the Shuai Mansion can still collect about seven or eight hundred thousand taels every year.

Yang Tingfeng once heard Ge Shu say, "My top priority is to raise military supplies for the soldiers at the front, and to collect the taxes that should be collected at the border this year, especially the taxes in the area of Sangjia Wazipian. Otherwise, we will have to suffer the people at the border......"

Lao Shuai's meaning is very clear, the lesser of two evils.

The common people have to work with the soldiers to cultivate and produce, and the conscription is extremely heavy, and it is an important source of soldiers and food, and it cannot be squeezed too hard, after all, water can carry boats, and it can also capsize boats.

But on the other hand, it is too easy for these people to make money, so in comparison, the Shuai Mansion has always been a faction, but they can only be wronged and wronged by these warblers and Yanyan.

But in this way, in this land, there are inevitably many evils that cannot be seen - forcing good people to become prostitutes, forcibly buying and selling, and selling girls from Tiannan and Haibei to Zisai, which happens from time to time.

And the inner city of Zisai, casinos and prostitutes are all over the place, coupled with the lack of restraint, over time, military discipline has become more and more lax, which is not a fortunate thing.

But in the face of these, the Shuai Fu will also make superficial statements, treat the symptoms but not the root cause, or even let it go, and only need to collect taxes regularly.......

"This phenomenon, one day, if I have the ability, I must get rid of it." This is the goal that Yang Tingfeng secretly set in his heart.

He did not object to the border army trading slaves for money, but he did not approve of the persecution of his own fellow girls.

In the same way, he can go to plunder the Hu merchants of the Western Regions, but at the same time, he will never harass the people of Zisai......

After the roe deer-headed man introduced himself, Yang Tingfeng couldn't help laughing, and asked with a smile: "So, this brother, He Ruohe, what position are you going to arrange?" ”

The rat-eyed man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "My lord, Lord He Ruo said that since I can manage pheasants, I can manage those who are soldiers." ”

Yang Tingfeng said strangely: "What is the position?" ”

The rat-eyed man arched his hand and said: "Lord He Ruo appointed Xia as the head of the team, saying that his status is equivalent to that of the head of the twelve chiefs, and he is in charge of the power of military law execution......"

Yang Tingfeng looked at him for a long time, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is in response to the old saying - 'I'd rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail'." ”

The rat-eyed man also laughed, "My lord is very right. ”

Immediately, the two looked at each other and smiled, so unhappy.

And the people who laughed at him didn't laugh at this time, and looked at the rat-eyed man with their eyes open in amazement......

At this time, Yang Tingfeng noticed that a man with an eagle nose and deep eyes and a fine forehead tattoo on his forehead suddenly smiled.

Because he hid in the shade and didn't speak, others rarely paid attention to him, but Yang Tingfeng looked at it in his eyes and observed secretly.

Suddenly, Yang Tingfeng pointed at the person and asked with a smile: "That brother over there, don't you introduce me?" ”

The man heard the voice, stood up, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Lord Qiqi, in Xia was originally a person from Qi (now Shandong), ten years ago, because of a lawsuit, was assigned to this place, and then the new monarch ascended the throne, amnesty to the world, the crime was reduced to one level, and he was also released, and then settled down in Zisai, and slaughtered dogs as a business. ”

When everyone heard this, they laughed again. Yang Ting nodded and said: "Okay, the ancients said that 'raising soldiers is like raising dogs, and raising daughters is like raising pigs', He Ruo chose you, and he really chose the right one." ”

The man didn't understand what he meant, stepped forward, and clenched his fists to ask for advice.

Yang Tingfeng thought for a while, and said seriously: "The ancients meant that raising a woman is like raising a pig, and you have to be well encircled and fed. And this commander is like a dog, and he has to be led out for a walk from time to time......"

As soon as the words fell, the man was silent at first, and suddenly burst into laughter, crying out for reason.

Yang Tingfeng glanced at everyone and scolded with a smile: "Okay, look at you, what 'chickens, dogs, and pigs' are all livestock!" I hope that when you go to the battlefield, you will charge Lao Tzu like an animal. ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

Yang Tingfeng pointed to his eyes, and said: "Since He Ruobi chose you, then Yang naturally believes in his vision, you remember, the people, the court, the old handsome and me, all look at ....... You guys do a good job...... Good job......"

At this moment, "Ding! Bite! Bite! "Three ringing sounds, and at the same time, it is also an order to assemble.

Everyone hurriedly got up, bid farewell to Yang Tingfeng one after another, stood on both sides, formed two columns, and walked towards the school in unison.

Yang Tingfeng glanced at the neat queue and asked, "Brother Xiao, what do you think?" ”

Xiao Wolf couldn't help but bow his head slightly, and whispered: "It is still unknown who killed the deer." ”

Yang Tingfeng smiled and nodded, noncommittal; His eyes were looking at the school field with interest, and his eyes were also on He Ruobi's side.....

School grounds

Autumn soldiers on the battlefield, and Zhang Zhang is newly named.

The heavy drum sounded, and with the sound of the drum, the team of newly promoted officers ran all the way to He Ruobi's side, lined up like a long snake.

The newly recruited soldiers were also listed in the order of tall, short, fat, and thin, and were listed as a long snake formation on the school field, holding a string of hanging money in their palms.

Yang Tingfeng looked into the distance: But I saw that the fat people were in the front, the tall ones were on the left, the short ones were in the second battalion, and the thin ones were at the end, and the captains of the four teams stood at the end of the queue to press the formation.

One hundred and twenty people stood in the school field, although it was crooked and unorthodox, but the whole audience was silent, and they could only hear the spring breeze blowing the banner of 'Zhangying' and the sound of hunting.

He Ruobi stood up slowly, his expression was solemn, very serious, different from usual, he did not stand in the long snake formation of the officers, but with his hands behind his back, standing on the left side of the platoon leader, and said solemnly: "Roll call!" ”

A pro-soldier next to him immediately took out the blue roster and shouted loudly: "Hu Ting, Ma Biao, Li Gouwa, Zhao Ermao......" The soldiers who were ordered agreed loudly "In!" ”

After the roll call was completed, the soldiers raised the cyan order flag and reported: "My lord, there are one hundred and twenty-three people who have passed the assessment, and all of them have arrived." ”

Hearing his report like this, He Ruobi couldn't help but smile and nodded to him, waved his hand and ordered: "Retreat!" ”

"No!" The soldiers put away the command flag and slowly stepped aside.

He Ruobi paced a few steps with his hands behind his back, suddenly waved his hand, and said loudly: "Listen to the order, from today onwards, the Chinese army will beat the drum once, and raise the green flag at the same time, and the four teams in front and back, left and right, according to the current formation, will be arranged into a "long snake formation", do you understand?" ”

"No!" The sound rises and falls, and there is no breath.

The named soldiers were greatly displeased, and asked loudly: "Didn't you eat?" Adults can't hear it! ”

The recruits straightened their chests and stomachs together and replied loudly: "No! ”

He Ruobi tried his best to suppress his temper and said: "Listen to it, I only say it once, if I can't remember it, I'll wait to give Lao Tzu a military stick!" The Chinese army beat the drum twice, and at the same time gathered the red flag, and you formed four teams in front and behind, left and right, in the existing formation, forming a "sharp formation"; beat the drum three times, raise the yellow flag, and the four teams formed a "phalanx"; Beat the drum four times, raise the white flag, and the four teams form a "circle formation"; Beat the drum five times, raise the black flag, and the four teams need to form a "curved formation"; Hearing the sound of drums and holding the green and yellow flags, it is a "sharp array"! Those who hear the sound of drums and raise black and red, and the two halves of the flag are together, which is called "Lian Array". ”

Xiao Wolf asked in surprise: "Sharp Front"? "Array"? Isn't this all an infantry formation? ”

Yang Tingfeng was also confused by the second monk, shook his head and said: "Indeed, I don't know, what does this kid want to do?" The "Sharp Array" and "Lian Array" are all evolved from the three talent formations and the three potential formations of the infantry army, the cavalry who gave the order could not leave the formation, and the cavalry protecting the two wings must be thirty paces away from the formation, an army, composed of five armies, and the commander conveyed the instructions to the armies by beating drums and raising flags, which was no problem. However, in the battalion tactics, due to the small number of people and the strong command of the officers, it is most taboo to divide the troops, and if you are so scattered, the Turks can scatter your whole team with a single charge, let alone fight......"

He guessed to himself, but He Ruobi finished reading it in one breath, snorted, his face was like purple gold, and asked, "Have you remembered everything?" ”

The soldiers replied in unison: "Remember! ”

He Ruobi listened, the green tendons on his forehead suddenly rose, and he snorted coldly: "Remember a fart, just you guys who go in with the left ear and come out with the right ear, don't think about remembering it in three months." Hawkers, forget it, starting tomorrow, if you can't remember, you will be beaten by the board. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was covered with beads of sweat the size of soybeans, and they were the same color as soybeans, sallow......

Yang Tingfeng was amazed, and said to Xiao Wolf: "Yes, I can't remember it, I will remember it after a beating, Lao He's nephew is a little interesting." ”

Xiao Wolf asked in surprise: "Could it be that Brother Yang appreciates this practice very much?" It's not easy to beat these dozens of military sticks. ”

Yang Tingfeng asked rhetorically: "Ci is not in charge of the soldiers!" This is the most important quality of a general, who is loose and loose in peacetime, but in wartime it kills his brothers. Throughout the century, millions of armies, hundreds of thousands of armies are defeated, and the reason why soldiers are so weak and vulnerable is often caused by the corruption of military discipline and the benevolence of the generals. How is Qin Fujian? In the battle of Weishui, millions of people were repelled by only a few rumors, and as soon as the army retreated, there was a rout of the whole army, and a generation of heroes only rode back to Huaibei. ”

He Ruobi coughed and continued: "Starting from the time of Ming'er Mao, according to the existing queue order, the left team will take the spear, the right team will take the sword, the front team will take the big shield, and the back team will take the bow and arrow!" A drum to pack up; Two drums, the whole team assembled; Three drums, all the staff practiced; Four drums, ...... with rice"

"Mingjin once, drum three times, the whole team charges."

"Two rings of gold, the whole team withdraws, three sounds, retreat to the main formation."

"When you go out of the camp, raise your spear, raise your shield horizontally, raise your sword horizontally, straddle your bow and arrows, unfurl your flag, beat your drums and blow your trumpets;"

"After three miles, carry the spear diagonally, close the sheath of the sword, carry the big shield, cross the bow and arrow on the back, roll up the flag, and stop the drum horn."

"When you are three miles away from the camp, you will unfurl the banner, unfurl the swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and beat the drums and blow the trumpet."

"After arriving at the guard camp, the big shield soldiers defended, the swords, guns, swords and halberds were sheathed, and the flag was rolled up and stopped."

The soldier suddenly asked again: "Do you all remember?" ”

This time, everyone learned wisely, and the soldiers replied in unison: I don't remember......
