Chapter 81: Harvest
As far as Zhang Xiao knew, Yang Xuangan would be defeated and die in about five days, so after listening to Du Ruhui's strategy, he hurriedly sent the Wu family brothers to meet Yang Xuangan.
Yang Xuangan's martial arts are terrifying, and he is known as the "Reincarnation Overlord", even if it is the "Heavenly Sword" Song Que or the "Sanren" Ning Daoqi, it is impossible to take her life.
As long as he doesn't want to die, then it is almost impossible for anyone in the world to kill him.
Finally, the slightly dead silence in the main hall became a little lively, as if a large stone had been removed from the bottom of my heart.
Then, Zhang Xiao began to take stock of the gains obtained from this attack on Chang'an with his subordinates.
Zhang Xiao obtained the Yang Gong Treasury and obtained a large amount of gold and weapons from it, among which in terms of weapons, there were more than 3,000 powerful bows and countless arrows. There are tens of thousands of other armor, knives, guns, swords, and halberds, which are enough to assemble a strong army of 10,000 people, and in terms of gold, it is enough for Zhang Xiao's expenses in the next five or six years.
The wealth in Rao is Yang Gong's treasure is so huge, but it is nothing compared to the wealth that can be collected in Chang'an City.
After capturing Chang'an, at least, within five years, even if Zhang Xiao expands his army to 400,000, there will not be the slightest pressure.
Compared with money, food and weapons, the things that Du Ruhui sent people to collect made Zhang Xiao's eyes shine.
Du Ruhui collected all the books hidden by Emperor Yang of Sui in the secretary province into his hands, with a total of 370,000 volumes, 77, ooo and other types of books.
And the most precious thing is actually not these dead things, but "people".
Zhang Xiao has decided to pack up all the talents in the palace and take them away, whether it is the master craftsman who will be the prisoner, or the imperial doctor in the palace, and even the groom should not miss a single one.
Hearing these good news, the smile on Zhang Xiao's face became more and more vigorous, and finally he couldn't help laughing.
Originally, the purpose of Zhang Xiao's meeting was only how to deal with the angry Yang Guang, but soon the topic turned to the strategic direction of the future.
This meeting is a day.
Zhang Xiao's direction is very simple, that is, to be a warlord who divides one side.
If you want to become a warlord, you must first have someone, and this person refers to the people under his rule. After that, you have to be able to turn people into soldiers, select generals and colonels from the soldiers, and then have a big framework, you have to build momentum, and there will be talents to vote, and after doing this, you will have the qualifications to be with the heroes of the world.
Therefore, Zhang Xiao is undoubtedly unqualified now, although Zhang Xiao has soldiers, generals, and some real talents, but he is only missing a piece of territory.
Although Chang'an is good, it is not a place to live, and Zhang Xiao must find a place where he can stabilize his exhibition.
Therefore, for Zhang Xiao, the most important thing is undoubtedly to take the four counties of Xihai, Heyuan, Shanshan, and Jimo.
And the last four counties are the counties of the Sui Dynasty, and most of the people in them are Han, but because they have just been established, and in the face of Tuyuhun's soldiers, there is no involvement of the family at all, only some scattered gang strength, so it can be said that it is a blank area waiting for Zhang Xiao to wave his pen wantonly.
Zhang Xiao knew that he was born in a poor family, and it was impossible to be recognized by the big family, nor could he get the support of the snobbish forces in the Buddhism Gate and the Demon Gate, and there were not many places that could really be used as a base, and the four counties of Xihai, Heyuan, Shanshan, and Mo were the most worthy places.
When Zhang Xiao is completely unfolded, he can capture Chang'an again and dominate the world.
After a war of words, Bai Wenyuan was finally the main general, Bi Tai was the military advisor, and Zhang Liang, Wang Junkuo, and Zhang Tong'er were the partial generals, leading 20,000 troops and horses to conquer the four counties.
Under Du Ruhui's Jianyi, all the 100,000 troops outside the city were blocked by Zhang Xiao outside Chang'an City, and only a large amount of money and food was paid as compensation.
The so-called righteous army is actually just the good name of Caokou, except for the guards of Zhang Xiaoyan's department who can maintain good discipline, even if the soldiers under Bai Wenyuan have a "beastly nature", if they are allowed to enter Chang'an City, then it is very likely that Chang'an will become a dead domain.
Although Li Liang and the others were a little dissatisfied, when Zhang Xiao had squandered almost one-tenth of the money in Yang Gong's treasury, they closed their mouths one by one and obediently listened to Zhang Xiao's orders.
Of course, Zhang Xiao's money was not only given to Li Liang and other generals, but also used to buy more money from the people under their command, so there were countless soldiers who secretly surrendered to Zhang Xiao.
Of course, there is one more extremely important thing.
That is the expansion of the army.
Zhang Xiao is already very rich now, so he directly waved a large pen, and all the people and horses who joined his command paid 500 strings of money, and the monthly military salary in the future was 40 strings.
This military salary can be said to be extremely high, if it weren't for Zhang Xiao's acquisition of Yang Gong's treasure and the treasury in Chang'an City, he really couldn't afford to pay such a high military salary.
The advantage of high military salaries is that the degree of violent soldiers is extremely fast, even if Zhang Xiao's requirements have been repeatedly raised, and finally to the point of almost demanding, the number of soldiers and horses under his command has increased by more than 50,000.
And those Sui troops who surrendered began to return to their hearts and devote themselves to Zhang Xiao's command.
It's a pity that the old guy of the Netherworld Master is very the bones, and he has always been unwilling to surrender, as long as he stays there for the time being, and waits.
However, even if these reductions are used as a foundation for expansion, the quality of the new recruits is very worrying.
Shen Luoyan, Shan Xiongxin and others were stationed in the barracks almost all day long, training these soldiers non-stop, Zhang Xiao was a little embarrassed to see it, and he had to be stationed in the barracks and live a hard life for a few days.
In the blink of an eye, three days later, Zhang Xiao suddenly got bad news.
That is, Zhao Jintong was beaten.
Zhao Jintong is the first general under Zhang Xiao, although he has no ability, but he is just leading thousands of miscellaneous soldiers to mess around. But he is Zhang Xiao's confidant, an old-timer in the army. Even Bai Wenyuan, the number one person in the army, has to give him half a point.
After all, it depends on the owner to beat the dog.
Zhang Xiao soon knew the ins and outs, and couldn't help but laugh a little.
When Zhang Xiao first started the army, he chatted with Zhao Jintong a few times, because of boredom, Zhang Xiao can be said to be blowing a lot, saying that he is a "son of destiny", destined to unify the world's men, and also said that he must collect the most beautiful women in the world, and then create a "big **".
The words are unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Although he knew that Zhang Xiao was bragging, Zhao Jintong kept the names of those beauties firmly in his heart.
Unfortunately, one of these names happens to be "Li Xiuning".
