"The county order summoned seventeen large Han families in the city today, and three of them secretly worked for them." Zhao Aqi said expressionlessly.

Gongsun Fu said: "The county ordered the guard Ma Cheng to buy Duan Da, the head of the Wuwei Battalion, yesterday, but he refused. ”

What should come is always coming, and after a few days of separation, Li Mi's fox tail is still exposed.

No one wants to be overlooked.

But these small gestures seem to be a bit ridiculous.

Zhao Aqi and Gongsun Fu were quite competent, and basically stared Li Mi to death.

Every day, I see who I see and what I say, and even the county government flies in and out of a few flies.

"It's a good job, but if you don't have enough manpower, or if you have any other needs, you can put it forward." Yang Zheng said gently.

Now he is completely under his control.

"The subordinates have no other requirements, but the widow Li in the city has the flesh and blood of her subordinates in her belly, and she asks the general to appease one or two." Zhao Aqi said a little apprehensively.

"So fast?" Yang Zheng teased, "You kid can." ”

is also a fallen person, most of the women in the city have lost their relatives, Zhao Aqi is also alone, and now he has blood and bones, which is a happy thing.

And if he can say it, he already has absolute trust in himself.

Zhao Aqi's rocky face finally rose with emotional twists and turns, "When, I didn't expect ...... at the beginning"

Gongsun Fu also laughed.

Yang Zheng thought for a while and said: "It's easy to talk about this matter, tomorrow I will ask people to clean up the south of the city, build a few spacious courtyards, invite the brothers to come over, and take care of each other." ”

"Thank you, General." Zhao Aqi wanted to bow down.

Yang Zheng grabbed his hand, "We are all brothers who live and die together, why do we need to see each other like this." ”

There was a look of gratitude in their eyes.

Only with a human touch can people be retained, and the soldiers are also flesh-and-blood people, not numbers on the books, under normal circumstances, for the old soldiers, as long as they do not harm the people, do not violate military law, and do not make too much trouble, Yang Zheng will turn a blind eye.

Of course, the Qiang camp and the Qiang camp were strictly disciplined.

In normal times, it is not allowed to leave the camp at all.

Erenqiang has a strong personality, but because of this, he worships the strong and obeys Yang Zheng.

Feng Qi's first batch of Liangzhou horses were sent, twenty-seven, with slender limbs, fierce dragons and tigers, strong and agile, half a head taller than ordinary war horses.

No wonder such a big reputation.

Rao is Yang Zheng has experienced the bloody wind and rain on the battlefield, and when he stands in front of the horse, he will also feel a natural oppressive force.

If it is equipped with horse armor and sharp soldiers, it is not difficult to imagine its power on the battlefield.

However, the heavy cavalry is not something that Yang Zheng can afford now.

Horse armor, saddles, stirrups, shoes......

Blacksmiths, cobblers, veterinarians are needed.

This is a complete industrial chain.

At the moment, the city of Caohan is not enough to support it.

Most of the 1,000 armors allocated by Xiahouba are leather armor, and there are only more than 100 sets of iron armor.

The armor rate of 1,000 people under Yang Zheng is already very high.

In this era, it would be good for many Qiang people to have a competent weapon.

Yang Zheng distributed the Liangzhou horse to the veteran of the Wuwei battalion.

Promise that there will be more in the future.

The soldiers' eyes were hot, and Yang Zheng distributed more than 20 war horses to them, and everyone was happy.

Wuwei Battalion, Qiang Battalion, Yang Zheng simply changed the forty-three children to the Qing Battalion, semi-military management.

In late May, Zhou Yu finally rushed back.

As soon as they met, they made a big salute, "My subordinates meet the general!" ”

Yang Zheng pulled him up, and another stone fell in his heart, "Zhong Ming has worked hard this time. ”

"The subordinates are fortunate not to be dishonored, and they inquired about Ling Huqian's whereabouts." Zhou Yu told the story.

It turned out that he went to Luoyang to inquire about Tang Fang Zheng Jun, but there was no definite news.

Tang Fang knew that Yang Zheng cared about this matter, so he summoned his subordinates to inquire, and finally learned from a tun chief who knew Ling Husheng that Ling Husheng was recalled to Yanzhou by his clansmen.

Zhou Yu rushed to Yanzhou, and Fang learned that Ling Husheng turned out to be the nephew of Yanzhou Assassin Shi Ling Huyu.

"There is a handwritten letter from Ling Hu Ziqian." Zhou Yu pulled out the bamboo slips from the package.

Yang Zheng spread out.

"Brother Xingyun: The elder in the family is seriously ill, and he has no choice but to say goodbye, so he heard that his brother has arrived in Longxi, and he is in a desperate place, and his heart is very happy.

In fact, as long as he heard the news of Ling Husheng's safety, Yang Zheng would also feel at ease.

Everyone fought all the way out of Luo Valley, and it was not easy to live.

Yanzhou Thorn Shi Ling Fox Fool is of course more reliable than his own little captain.

Maybe I won't be able to mix it up then, and I'll have to go to him.

"Zhong Ming came back at the right time." From Chang'an to Luoyang, and from Luoyang to Yanzhou, traveling thousands of miles, never abandoning, and following himself back to this contemptible city, how could Yang Zheng not know the loyalty in it?

Caohan lacks everything, but what is most lacking is talent.

Liu Heng, Meng Guan, and Su Hong are still young and can't be alone.

Now that Li Mi is in Caohan, Yang Zheng can't go to Dragon Snake Valley often.

Although the Qiang camp is obedient, it does not have effective manpower to control it, so it is not at ease after all.

Zhou Yu came back and solved this problem.

Zhang Te, Zhou Yu's right-hand men, are now all complete.

Yang Zheng summoned the old brothers of the Wuwei Battalion to drink, which was regarded as washing the dust for Zhou Yu.

Yang Zheng's side is very happy, and Li Mi's actions are getting bigger and bigger these days.

After finding out the current situation of Caohan, he tirelessly dug into the corner.

Either to rebel against the Wuwei camp, or to contact the big Han people in the city and the Hanjiawu Fort outside the city.

The results are not very good.

Yang Zheng is also happy to test the loyalty of the army.

The people of the Wuwei Battalion are extremely united, and they don't know Li Mi's empty county order at all.

And the Han people in Longxi, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, have been oppressed by the officials worse than the Qiang people, and the Qiang people can't stand it, so they pat their butts and drill further northwest and southwest, but the Han people can't go.

However, Yang Zheng still underestimated Li Mi's ability to make trouble.

I don't know how he had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly proposed to collect commercial taxes.

The city of Caohan comes and goes from the south to the north, there are many business travelers, Qiang, Han, Di, E, even the Xianbei people in Hexi will pass through here, go to Anding, Tianshui to buy grain.

Among them were also those who resold illicit salt.

Li Mi saw a huge business opportunity and imposed heavy taxes on business travelers.

At the beginning of the founding of Cao Wei, compared with the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was light and lightly paid, and he explicitly ordered a tax.

However, the Cao family is not as good as the generation, and the Ming Emperor is very extravagant, and the money and grain will naturally not come out of the family, so all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are increasing day by day, and the local private projects are collected by themselves.

According to the experience of later generations, the gathering of crowds will bring economic benefits.

Eating, drinking, staying in a hotel, and renting a house are all money.

Li Mi is so desperate to fish, and the good situation created by Yang Zheng is in vain.

This guy also entangled several large Han people in the city, and made a team of 100 tax collectors, who showed off their power in the city every day.

Moreover, Li Mi's natural dislike for Qiang often connived at the tax collectors to oppress and destroy people.

The Qiang people cried in front of Yang Zheng many times.

Yang Zheng spent so much effort to maintain the relationship between the Qiang people, and Li Mi made a mess of porridge in just a few days.

Chickens and dogs jump in the city.

Many Qiang leaders swallowed their anger when they saw Yang Zheng's face.
