Gao Zhong, the princess and everyone couldn't imagine that this recipe was worth 900,000 yuan, if it was ten or twenty years and there were enough green alum, it might be able to earn it back, and it was also worth this money, which could only be regarded as a long-term investment. After all, the price is too high, but there are also political and military considerations, and it is also a wise decision to be able to photograph this item. Some people have ideas, but they can't do it without strength.

Gao Zhong and his entourage have also been to the Tianshui River in the past two days, where it has begun to move, Zhao Yi is there, and there are people coming to the construction site one after another every day, some are the families of the rebels, and there are also laborers arranged by Shu Wang Renli, and a large row of simple sheds has been built by the river.

The stone and the piece of land where Gao Zhong and the princess sit, Zhao Yi enclosed this place, and he didn't want this project to be destroyed. When the princess saw it, she remembered the body temperature of the high pet coming from the stone, and she appreciated Zhao Yi's approach very much.

Everyone returned to Xingqing Horse Mansion.

Ten days have passed since the selection of the prison army, there should not be many orchids, Gao Chong just wanted to go to Mu Wei with the princess, but he didn't expect to go home for less than an hour, Mu Wei personally came to the Horse Mansion to see the princess and Gao Chong.

"The princess of the county, the master of the horses, the five thousand people of the army of the prison have been selected, including five generals, eighteen partial generals, and sixty-three captains, of which according to your requirements, three thousand horse troops, one thousand mountain army, and one thousand crossbow arrowmen have been selected. There were also 18,531 soldiers and other subordinate soldiers. There are 3,378 families with a total of 28,461 families. Of these, 17,942 were women. This is the roster, if there is no problem this official reported to the court for approval. At present, the national army has assembled in the southern military camp outside the city. There are 317 literate people in the prison army, and 223 literate family members. ”

"Eighteen thousand five hundred and thirty-one soldiers and other subordinate soldiers? What's going on? Gao Zhong didn't understand, thinking that 5,000 troops would be 5,000 people, but it immediately swelled to more than 23,000 people.

"The horse may not know something, my Xia military system, the establishment is only counted as the main army, the regular army is one person, generally with one person, and some two main army use one negative courage. The captive army, on the other hand, is generally equipped with two or three negative soldiers. Due to the fact that some regular soldiers have participated in many wars, there are also several categories of people such as "private individuals", "servants", "Yu people", "prisoners", and "hard laborers" who serve in the army for the regular army. Since the people selected this time are all elite soldiers, there are many subordinates. ”

"Master Mu has worked hard, let's go with the princess to see the southern military camp."

In the early days of the Western Xia, the soldiers generally brought their own ordnance and food, and only the extremely poor soldiers without weapons were given a small amount of military support. More than a hundred years later, this policy has been greatly improved, and due to the gradual prosperity of the country, the regularization of the army and the construction of the standing army, ordnance, armor, clothing, etc. have been gradually unified. Especially the standing army. However, for the burden and other servants in the army, it must be borne by the regular soldiers themselves. If there is no war, there is no reward, and unless there is family support, it is really unaffordable. This is also one of the reasons why the troops have to fight. During the reign of Empress Dowager Liang, more than 70 battles were fought in more than ten years, is there pressure from the army? For the support of the army? The opinion of the high pet is highly likely.

"Do these people solicit their personal opinions when they are selected?" On the way to the barracks, Gao Zhong asked Mu Wei.

"Of course, there are questions, one is to involve the following of their families, and they will be princesses in the future. If they don't go and leave morality, they will run away, which is not good. The fact is that the appeal of the princess and the concubine is very strong, and many people are willing to go with the princess, and besides, there is a border pass, and there are many opportunities for war. ”

In the early days of the Western Xia, the soldiers generally brought their own ordnance and food, and only a small amount of support was given to those who were extremely poor and did not have weapons. More than a hundred years later, this policy has been greatly improved, and ordnance, armor, clothing, etc. have been gradually unified. Especially the standing army. However, for the burden and other servants in the army, it must be borne by the regular soldiers themselves. If there is no war, there is no reward, and it is unaffordable unless there is family support. This is also one of the reasons why the troops want to fight, as the Empress Dowager Liang was in power, and more than 70 battles were fought in more than ten years.

The South Military Camp was a reserve military camp in Gyeonggi, and although the Capture Army was a direct subordinate unit of the emperor, it was not a garrison in Gyeonggi, and his standing military camp was not stationed in Xingqing, but in the southwest of Xiping, in Qingtongxia. Under normal circumstances, there are no troops stationed in this barracks, only some daily barracks maintenance personnel.

Mu Wei set up a zero-hour management organization for the troops, temporarily for the day-to-day management of these soldiers, and also to ensure the normal operation of the unit before the delivery of the princess. In general, the new owner will make adjustments.

In the barracks, most of the soldiers of the army underwent organized training, and some of the people were free to do their own things in front of their houses or tents. The barracks are very large, and in front of the barracks are rows of tents, and there are "curtain beams" covered with woolen fabric supported by wooden frames, which are quite neat. In the early days of Western Xia, there were no tents, and the general soldiers stipulated that three people lived in a "curtain beam". But in the later period, especially the treatment of the captured army has been greatly improved, the regular soldiers generally have tents, and the courage and subordinates can also live in the tents of the regular soldiers, but some recruits and those who have more or no wealth can only live in the curtain beam, so there are still many curtain beams in this military camp.

This time, the princess and Gao Pet only understood the situation in the past and did not officially receive it, and Gao Pet did not let the troops gather but walked all the way over to see, ask, and understand the quality of the entire selection personnel and some personal wishes. Many soldiers can't speak, they speak Dangxiang or Xixia language, Gao Zhong can't understand it, and he also needs Mu Wei's entourage to translate.

"Those who train are mainly the regular army, and most of the negative and subordinate do things according to the master's arrangement, and there are also regular soldiers who arrange these people to train." Mu Wei led Gao Pet towards the camp and introduced him to the princess and Gao Pet.

The quality of the army is quite good, and Mu Wei's selection is still a lot of effort, but the courage and subordination are not very good, but this is not something that Mu Hu can solve, which is also determined by the characteristics of the Western Xia system. Regular soldiers are in charge of training and fighting, while they are in charge of logistics, which is the inevitability of the previous conscription system and the system of all the people being soldiers.

If this team is transformed, it will definitely be able to exert greater combat power. However, according to the way of building the army, the conflict of culture and habits needs more work. But no matter what, Mu Wei, a privy envoy, personally helped the princess do this, which was really a bit difficult for him.

After seeing a few generals and partial generals, Gao Zhong nodded to the princess.

"Lord Mu, it's been a hard time, so let's decide it." The princess said to Mu Wei.

"In addition, if the emperor grants permission, I will receive it in three days, and the supervisors at all levels will temporarily follow your arrangement, and we will prepare to return to the fiefdom in five days. You ask them to prepare. Regarding the relocation of family members, wait for the arrangement to notify you, and follow the old system. ”

The efficiency of the court was very high, and the approval came down the next afternoon, and it was designated to go to the Xishou Baotai Military Division three days later to change guards with the original garrison. One of the original 12 military divisions, the Xishou Baotai Military Division, because most of the territory has been the territory of the princess, the military division's station has also moved to Mingsha County. Two days later, the princess, accompanied by Mu Wei and King Jin, went to receive the prison army with Gao Pet.

The princess appointed Gao Zhong as the commander of this army, and named the unit the Wolf Tooth Army, so in Chinese history, in addition to the invincible army of the Flying Tiger Army, there is also a force that can fight with the Wolf Tooth Army. But the wolf's tooth of today is not the same as the wolf's tooth of the future. The other five generals each had 1,000 men as a general. The princess said why she called the Wolf Tooth Army.

The princess gave a speech before the army:

"In the grassland, almost everyone here has dealt with wolves, and even many people have killed wolves, he is a major opponent in our grassland, we are too familiar with it, so that many people, who have not been in contact with wolves, appreciate and respect this opponent, and there are many tribes in our Western Xia and the west who take the wolf as a totem and worship it."

"Wolves are one of the most orderly and disciplined animals in the animal kingdom. Demonstrate a strong team spirit. They live together, fight together, advance and retreat with their brother wolf, fight bravely in the face of strong opponents, and they will not give up on their brother and flee for their lives. This is a kind of loyalty and a kind of responsibility, loyalty to the collective, to the wolf king, to survive as a team, to the collective responsibility to the children. They are smart and wise, never take the initiative to attack dangerous targets, and are keenly observant of certain targets, tacit cooperation, perseverance and patience waiting for opportunities, and persistently accomplishing their goals. The qualities of loyalty, bravery, unity and cooperation, perseverance, wisdom and discipline are really what our team needs. ”

"So from today on, our army will be called the Wolf Tooth Army, and today, I will also hand over this Wolf Tooth Army to my horse, so that he can take you to gallop across the battlefield, make meritorious achievements, and destroy all the invaders who dare to invade our territory in the Great Xia Kingdom."

"Defend the princess to the death! Defend the territory to the death! Swear to protect our Great Xia Kingdom to the death! ”

On December 11, Shaoxing 3, and January 14, 1134 in the Gregorian calendar, this wolf tooth army left Xingqing and headed for the territory of Huining County. Prince Renxiao, King Chage of Jin, King Pu Renzhong, privy envoy Mu Wei and other Beijing officials and princes all came to send the princess of the county and the horses to the territory of Huining County. The crown prince took the princess's hand:

"Sister Huang, Lone will miss you, you have to come over often to see Lone." Then he turned to Gao Pet and said:

"Master Ma, you have to treat the imperial sister well, that place is the frontier, you have to help the imperial sister take care of it, don't let the imperial sister suffer other people's losses!"

Passing by Xiping Mansion, Shu Wang Renli and Heishui Bo Li You also greeted and sent the labor army at the head of the city, and sent a lot of cattle and sheep to eat. Gao Zhong and the princess resigned from King Shu and Li You all the way to the territory of Huijun.
