Han Shizhong's joining Chaojiazhuang is a great event, and it is naturally another celebration. This time, everyone is their own people, and then look at the black whirlwind Li Kui and the black mountain kite Chen Hu, I feel that the two black men are not vicious but honest.

He has been in the Western Army for many years, and has experienced many battles with the Xixia people, and has honed his life and death in all aspects such as martial arts and skills, so he is naturally not comparable to the wild road.

Han Shizhong took a few henchmen into the pro-guard team to assist Guo Sheng in training the military formation, cooperating, simulating fighting with the enemy, how to deal with emergencies, and so on. This is really not comparable to the cover of modern thinking.

It can be said that Han Shizhong's joining is a metamorphosis for the Chaofu Self-Defense Forces to undergo a transformation. As long as you train for a while, you can move from miscellaneous to regular.

Han Shizhong led people to train guards every day, or he fought against Chao Gai, Guo Sheng, Shi Xiu and others, and at night he would eat meat and drink wine with everyone. Live a chic life without constraints, far more than in the army.

More than ten days passed in a flash!

The burned buildings in Chaojiazhuang have long been built, and the outer earthen walls have been thickened and heightened to run horses. Chaojiazhuang has accepted two or three thousand people during this time. The Chao Mansion recruited more than 500 guards for rigorous training.

Chao Gai strictly ordered not to go out, swaggering people's attention, and only caring about development. Chaojiazhuang has made great efforts and entered a stage of rapid development!

And outside, in the past half a month, a lot has happened!

Chaojiazhuang, Songjiazhuang was attacked by Yangsan thieves overnight and reported to the Jeju government. The governor of Zhizhou was furious, and on the one hand, he strengthened the vigilance of the local government and set an example to calm the people, and on the other hand, he sent the newly appointed arrest envoy He Tao to investigate the case and assist the Jeju regiment to train Huang An to lead the troops to suppress the bandits.

There were 500 horse troops, 500 infantry, plus the state government officials, and the local officials combined with nearly three commands, and the team was vast and amazing.

However, the local army of the Song Dynasty neglected to train and its combat effectiveness was worrisome. In the past, it was okay to bully the common people with the courage of many people, but it was enough to choke in the face of strong people.

Due to the lack of ships, the team could not spread out in the face of 800 miles of water, and their hands and feet were tied. In addition, the Jeju regimental training envoy Huang An and Sandu arrested the envoy He Tao with mediocre skills and no good strategy, so they requisitioned nearby fishing boats to rush to the giant island, but they were defeated by the strongman in the reeds.

If it weren't for Wang Lun on Liangshan, he wouldn't want to make things too big. Otherwise, under the ambush, the hundreds of officers and troops who tried to attack would definitely lose seven or eight out of ten.

Huang An and He Tao set up camp on the edge of the water and made no progress for more than ten days. In addition, the Jeju Zhizhou urged tightly, so he could only attack Yangsan in a different direction. This time, I thought of a way to take more than 100 small boats to attack at night.

However, Liangshan had already been prepared, and he was defeated and lost by being killed again. If it weren't for Zhu Tong, Lei Heng, Chao Gai, who had taken out to visit, arrived in time. The result was either heavy losses, or the team training made him capture alive.

This group of wine bags and rice bags can't fight, and they bully the common people one by one. Han Shizhong didn't know it before, but now he sees it with his own eyes. The surrounding people were choked by the scourge, and the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep in the family were eaten, and they had to be sent away with money. In just ten days, two or three hundred households came to invest in Chaojiazhuang.

Chao Gai really couldn't stand this group of crappy soldiers harming the people in the name of suppressing bandits. He personally went to the Jeju government to find the governor of the state and suggested that the army be withdrawn and that part of the people be sent to various villages to organize militia self-defense. Take the gong as the signal, and go to the rescue wherever you encounter the enemy.

It is forbidden to sell food to the Liangshan thieves and starve this group of guys to death. The other is to build ships or purchase them from Jiangnan, and accumulate strength to give a thunderous blow.

When the governor of Jeju heard this, he thought it was good and adopted it. Sent people to recall the Jeju officers and soldiers and arrange for people to go to various villages to organize youth training. He also sent people with money to Bianliang City, Tokyo, to block the news.

During this time, the money came very quickly, and he was not distressed.

Chao Gai was generous and righteous, so naturally he procured food and weapons and equipment on a large scale. Let this governor make a lot of money, very happy.

The effect of his plea for the people's lives was useful, and the officers and soldiers were scattered, and the people were so bold that they did not dare to oppress the people too much, and this action was spread by the people.

Chao Gai didn't think about his own fame, but wanted to do something for the people. In order to avoid such incidents, the Chaojiazhuang guards trained and patrolled by the water, and made a big noise to prevent thieves from invading the villages and towns.

Yuncheng Zhixian and Jeju Zhizhou were overjoyed and generously allocated money and grain to subsidize them. Han Shizhong felt that it was ridiculous to slip the world, and secretly scolded these stupid forks.

Anyway, Chaojiazhuang wants money and food, and the guard training is in full swing.

What made Chao Gai most happy was that he followed the rescue that night and accidentally rescued Huang An, the regimental training envoy. is a rich second generation with a family background, and he spends money to buy an official. But he is also a person who knows how to repay his kindness, and in order to express his gratitude, he gave Chao Gai fifty military horses that day.

Such a bold person deserves deep friendship!

Chao Gai is a good friend, so he naturally invited him to the house for hospitality. After drinking and talking, I learned that this guy's family is a horse seller, and there is an elder brother named Huang Sheng, who is the guard of the Daimyo's Mansion Horse Farm.

It was precisely by relying on this relationship that he monopolized the horse trade in Shandong, Hebei and other places, and Chao Gai bought 300 military horses on the spot at a price 30% higher than the market price. Huang Tuanlian saw that it was profitable and had the grace to save his life, so he took care of everything.

The business talks here are hot, and many people are in a hurry.

Yuncheng Renzhi County sent someone to inform Tiejia that the matter was about to be settled. In order to facilitate the conclusion of the deal, the grain and equipment were sold at a reduced price. He has been given a place to be promoted, and now he can earn a fortune.

Wang Yuan made a windfall by selling the returned equipment, and when he tasted the sweetness, he naturally wanted to make another profit, so he repaired the book again and handed it to Han Shizhong.

Chao Gai opened it curiously and felt that this brother was a huge greed. And I'm curious about the brother of a dead fat man, who has such a big face, and the equipment that a few commanders have replaced is upside down?

Han Shizhong stayed in Chao Mansion for almost half a month, and he lived very comfortably. However, Wang Fatzi urged many times that he would return even if he didn't want to leave.

Dozens of people led the horses out of Chaojiazhuang.

It was Chao Gai, Wu Yong, Shi Xiu and others who sent Han Shizhong and his subordinates away. Among them, Guo Sheng, the leader of the pro-guard team, was the most reluctant, and he had no less competition with this Po Han Wu for more than ten days, learned a lot of things, and had the best relationship.

"Hey, good minister, it's a long way to go, take care."

Chao Gai reluctantly took Han Shizhong's hand: "I have prepared a few sets of clothes for you to change on the road, and Brother Fool and all the brothers are waiting for you to return." ”

"Brother, don't worry, even if you come thousands of miles to meet." Han Shizhong is a resolute person, and when he took the heavy package, he knew that there was a lot of gold and silver in it. He placed the package on the vacant horses and saluted the crowd with fists.

Each of the dozens of soldiers had a silver ingot for their journey. Half a month of warm hospitality, and now there is still money to take, shouting the benevolence of the king.

Everyone sent a few miles away, Han Shizhong saw Chao Gai, Guo Sheng and the others were full of reluctance and moved in their hearts, but they knew that if it went on like this, it would only be endless. So he was ruthless and directly led people to turn over and get on the horse, and beat the horse away quickly.

"Hahaha, don't worry, brother, try to bring more brothers back." Although Han Shizhong was far away, the slightly cynical laughter echoed.

"Brother, we'll see you again!" Chao Gai knew that Han Shizhong would come back after leaving, but he was still depressed, and he took people back to Chao Mansion until he couldn't see anyone. first visited Shi Xiu's uncle, Li Kui's wife.

After talking for a while, he left, and accidentally found that there was someone shaking behind the rockery, and he tiptoed over to see that it was Chao Qiang and Zhang Ling'er hiding here on a date. The mood that was originally a little low has improved a lot.

On the mountain behind Chaofu, there are more and more birds here. In the forest, Chen Leopard whistled, and a large flock of birds flew around him, most of them black starlings. With his whistle flying around, it was like a show.

Yes, Chao Gai deeply understands that the ancient war relied on poor information. The Tang Dynasty began to domesticate carrier pigeons, and the Song Dynasty also had flying slaves to pass on books, and the Zhenrong Qu family was good at domesticating pigeons, and Quduan was a carrier pigeon for military use.

There's another allusion to this!

In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhang Jun went to inspect the army led by Qu Duan, but when he arrived at the army station, he did not see a single soldier of Qu Duan. The general was so surprised that he asked the chief officer Qu Duan to check the team that had been inspected.

Tilting the end of the chest means that you are on call!

Although Zhang Jun didn't believe it, he took the roster and pointed the general. Qu Duan first opened a pigeon coop and let the pigeons fly out, and soon the army arrived.

General Zhang inspected the whole army, Qu Duan opened the other five pigeon cages, and all five pigeons flew out, and all the troops were soon assembled.

Using carrier pigeons to communicate with the army is faster and safer than using people to deliver messages. It's a pity that the Song Dynasty had Quduan, but this talent was not promoted at all.

Chao Gai knows its importance, and the Zhenrong Qu family can't count on it, but there are so many strange people in the world, it doesn't mean that no one knows how to tame birds, after all, he has hunted with his grandfather and knows some tricks that require falconry.

The Chao government hired people to domesticate birds, and it didn't take long for the news to spread. Chen Hu, the black mountain kite, and Chen Bao, the poisonous starling, volunteered.

Since childhood, they have learned the unique skills of bird training from Yiren.

Chen Hu is good at domesticating falcons, and Chen Bao is calling for starlings. His nickname "poisonous starling" is named after attracting hundreds of starlings to scare away enemies.

After learning of Chao Gai's idea to train the pigeons, Chen Hu was eliminated. Chen Bao can, but he hasn't trained before and has been practicing.

Chao Gai watched the flock of birds fly up and down, smiling on his face.

Chen Bao sensed that someone was approaching, and let out a long howl, and the birds flew away. When he turned around, he saw that it was Chao Gai who ran over with a smile: "Brother, are you here?" ”

"Leopard, how's the training?" Chao Gai asked, looking at the scattered birds.

"Brother, the pigeons here are not good, they lack stamina and can't fly far."

"Then buy it at a high price, the best pigeons." Chao Gai naturally did not be stingy, and then admonished: "Leopard, as long as you can train carrier pigeons, it is worth the cost, and it is related to the timely delivery of news in the future." ”

"Yes, brother, don't worry!" Chen Bao patted his thin chest.

Chao Gai then asked him which place had the best carrier pigeons, and what the price was. What are the difficulties in the domestication process or financial problems, etc. After discussing the specific details, Chen Bao was instructed to train strictly and strode away!
