At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang set up guard posts in various places, and at the same time issued the "Stacking Order", which became the main recruitment method for the guards.

According to the provisions of the "Stacking Order", the three households of the people are one unit, one of which is called the main household out of the army, that is, the regular army, and the rest are the households.

If the regular army dies, it will be made up from among the households.

The so-called "Gou Army" was a system of supplementing the army in the Ming Dynasty.

In the early and middle Ming Dynasty, the military system of the guard was implemented, and the military households were fixed to undertake military service, and the father died and the son succeeded, and the generations were soldiers and the army was stationed.

If the entire family of a military household dies or flees, the government will send personnel to their hometown to make up for their relatives or replace them, which is called "Gou Jun".

Generally speaking, the army is the head of the arsenal of the military department, if there is a hook, the guard will open a report, verify the township's residence, the internal government will give approval, issue a military order, and pay the capital to the guard for implementation.

It's just that under the collapse of the guard's system, the scope of the Gou army is also constantly expanding.

In many cases, when it is difficult to deal with the displaced people, they will also be organized into military households and supplemented with local health posts.

First, it solves the problem of displaced people, and secondly, it allows the shortage of people to be replenished by manpower.

Guan Qilin is a smart man, he chose to cooperate, and he responded to the matter of hooking the army.

According to the regulations, the number of troops in the Qianhu Office in the county should be 1,120 people.

The regular army is a soldier in the army, Yu Ding or called the army Yu is the children of the regular army, they do not belong to the establishment, but they also need to serve in the garrison with the regular army, do logistics support for the regular army, and at the same time serve as a substitute for the regular army.

If the regular army dies in battle or dies in an accident, they can take their place.

A thousand-household house, generally speaking, there are more than four or five thousand people.

Because the regular army is naturally not alone, they are all bringing their families with them.

The desertion of thousands of households in the county was serious, and the military land was constantly occupied and declining day by day.

Guan Qilin also explained the general situation to Chen Wang.

Today, there are only more than 2,000 people left in the 1,000 households in the county, and more than 500 soldiers are all scraped together.

Now there are more than 200 soldiers defending the city, half of them are green skins that they spent money to find, and there are even Yu Ding and the old man who have made up for it.

More than 200 people not only have to guard the county, but also guard the county's thousands of households.

The Ming Dynasty Guard Office is generally not located in the county seat, but in another place.

There are ten hundred houses under one thousand houses. Each of the 100 households has 112 regular soldiers according to the standard.

Each hundred households has two general flags, each of which has about 55 regular soldiers.

There are five small flags under each general flag, and each small flag has a military camp,

The small flag is the most basic unit of the military tun, and many of the current small flag camps in the mainland have now evolved into villages.

There are more than 3,000 displaced people, and it is naturally unrealistic to put all of them under the establishment of the Thousand Households Office in Chu County at once.

But it doesn't matter if you don't have a compilation, it's good to settle down first, there are policies on the top, there are countermeasures on the bottom, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, who knows if you report one less and report more?

Where does Jinyiwei have the majesty of the Apocalypse now, not only the minions of predation have been pulled out, but even the fangs in the mouth have been removed.

How to deal with it is Guan Qilin's matter, Chen Wang asked Guan Qilin to pay 5,000 taels of silver.

Trivial things such as sorting out joints and getting through tricks are naturally solved by Guan Qilin.

Of course, Chen Wang, who had five thousand taels of silver, naturally did not directly hand it over to Guan Qilin, but asked Zhao Huailiang to lead a bureau of soldiers to send it, and directly stayed in the thousands of households in the county to supervise how the money was used.

Zhao Huailiang received the order, got the seal letter, and led Guan Qilin to follow all the way from the position of the military tent to the warehouse.

Five thousand taels of silver were contained in a large box, and when they were loaded into the car, the lid of the box was specially opened and counted.

To be honest, Guan Qilin has never seen so much silver in his life.

The white silver was almost blinded by the sun, and if it weren't for the two guards beside him who were still a little sane, Guan Qilin would almost fall to the ground.

Qianhu is the military attache of the fifth grade, but what about the military attache of the fifth grade, the guard in the interior collapsed, where is there any oil and water, Guan Qilin has no knowledge.

To be honest, the Guan family has saved a lot of family wealth, after all, it is a hereditary thousand households, but it can't withstand years of war.

Guan Qilin's Qianhu County is not bad, after all, it is also a rich place, and the military fields can still have some money left over if they are cultivated well, and some shops in the city can also earn a little.

But...... That's five thousand taels of silver!

Moreover, when Guan Qilin was looking at the loading of silver, he also saw a lot of boxes piled up in the warehouse.

Some of those boxes were closed, some were open, and Guan Qilin also saw Huang Chengcheng's things in them, but unfortunately the light was really dim, and some couldn't really see it.

Guan Qilin's heart beat uncontrollably, and his gaze was completely straight.

"The verification point is 5,000 taels of silver, no more than a penny, no less, the seal has been surveyed, and the thousand total signatures are left with a seal, and they can be taken away."

The voice of the treasurer in charge of counting the money interrupted Guan Qilin's thoughts.

Guan Qilin swallowed his saliva, raised his head and saw Zhao Huailiang with a smile on his face.

"How did Guan Qianhu come here?"

"Huh?"

Guan Qilin didn't come to his senses all of a sudden, first he didn't know why Zhao Huailiang asked like this, but he quickly replied that he came on horseback.

When he followed Zhao Huailiang out of the camp, Guan Qilin knew why Zhao Huailiang asked.

Chen Wang's battalion assigned to escort Baiyin had already been waiting outside the treasury for a long time.

More than 100 battalion soldiers were all covered with robes and belts, batch armor and helmets, bows and swords, and horses and whips.

The stakes are very high, and Chen Wang naturally sent the closest Liao cavalry as an escort.

It turned out that these Liao cavalry under Zhang Waijia had gone through several battles, and now they were all convinced by Chen Wang.

There is really not much comparison between Zhang Waijia, the old master, and Chen Wang.

Chen Wang took them all the way to get real military exploits, and the credits recorded were all recorded, and there was no deduction of half a cent from the bounty and military salary.

Under the purification city, Chen Wang's prancing horse charged forward and broke the breaking army.

Under the city of Luoyang, Chen Wang beheaded Li Guo in the midst of thousands of troops, broke three formations in a row, and had already established his prestige in the army.

Guan Qilin was even more frightened when he saw a group of heavily armed and murderous Liao cavalry.

At first, when he saw the stern and taciturn soldiers in the camp, he was already a little afraid.

And the oppression brought by these Liao cavalry is several times greater than that of those battalion soldiers.

Being in the hinterland of Hanzhong and having never been to the borderland, how could he ever see a soldier with such a murderous aura.

The only soldier Guan Qilin has ever seen is the superintendent battalion brought by Hong Chengchou when he entered Hanzhong to quell the rebellion in the seventh year of Chongzhen.

At that time, it was only from a distance, but now more than 100 Liao cavalry are close ahead, and the pressure brought by the two is naturally very different.

However, Guan Qilin quickly suppressed the fear in his heart, because he figured out one thing.

The stronger the army under Chen Wang's command, the safer the county became.

As long as the county is safe and the official hat on his head is kept, everything else is not important.

Guan Qilin was riding on the war horse, his eyes were slightly heavy, his teeth were clenched, he was thinking.

Thinking about why Chen Wang filled so many people into his Thousand Households, Guan Qilin didn't know.

But he instinctively felt that he was doing another dangerous thing.

Chen Wang is just a guerrilla, and it is only good for him to pursue and suppress and kill thieves.

It is the responsibility of the local government to settle the people and take care of the displaced people, and it has nothing to do with Chen Wang's half of the money.

It is true that many battalion generals will take the initiative to distribute military rations to help the people when they see the disaster, but no battalion will take the initiative to deliver real money and silver to resettle the people and displaced people.

The real money and silver are self-produced, and the military rations that are scattered are from the imperial court.

Could it be that this Chen Wang, this guerrilla general, is really just a loyal minister who worries about the country and the people?

Guan Qilin's gaze kept wandering on the bodies of the Liao cavalry on both sides, recalling the tone and demeanor of Chen Wang's speech in the Chinese military tent.

He has been a thousand households in Chuxian County for more than 20 years, and he has met all kinds of people.

But he couldn't see through Chen Wang at all, and he couldn't guess what Chen Wang was thinking in his heart, let alone what Chen Wang was going to do.

Snow fluttered and fell from the sky.

Guan Qilin raised his head and looked at the heavy snow in front of him.

He has been doing nothing all his life, taking over the official body of a thousand households from his father, and for more than 20 years, he has only traveled around this acre and a third of land, and he can't get out of this county.

The world is difficult, more and more turbulent, and the road ahead is confused, but all he can do is take a step and see a step......

Above the camp gate, Chen Wang was wearing a helmet, and his eyes were on the team that was marching towards the county not far away.

Chen Gong and Hu Zhili stood on the left and right sides of Chen Wang according to the sword robe, and the rest of the people stood separately under the camp gate, a certain distance from the three of them.

"Command all departments, food and meat are enough, and you can rest for one day after four days of intensive training."

Chen Wang pressed the Yanling knife on his waist, and his gaze turned to the southwest at the same time.

The victory of Luoyang and Jinniu in the two battles and the killing of Li Guo did eliminate a lot of Hong Chengchou's vigilance, but this was far from enough.

Now that they have entered Hanzhong, there is no need for Li Yangchun and Lin Shengquan to continue to stay.

Now Li Yangchun and Lin Shengquan are trapped in Ningqiang, and it is difficult to fly even if they have wings.

With the heads of Li Yangchun and Lin Shengquan, the mission can be delivered to some extent.

As for whether he could stay in Hanzhong Mansion after exterminating Li Yangchun and Lin Shengquan, Chen Wang was not worried at all.

His memory is terrible, and he clearly remembers the record of Hanzhong in the "Liukou Zhi".

In December of the eighth year of Chongzhen, that is, in December of this year.

The people in Hanzhong Mansion and the Liukou who were already raging in Shaanxi converged, and the two joined forces together to defeat the officers and soldiers in Hanzhong Mansion.

From the mouth of the Sanjiang River in Feng County, through the Heigu Dam, it gathers in the east of Baocheng County.

Then the soldiers were divided into three routes: all the way to attack Yang and Yangping Pass. All the way to attack Hanzhong, Chenggu, Yangxian. Attack the state all the way.

The next year will be the most chaotic and turbulent year in Hanzhong Prefecture.

"Twenty days later, the soldiers will go out and go to Ningqiang to suppress the rebellion!"
