Chapter 138: Mingjiao elites like a fish in water

Views:

The defeated soldiers of the Jinbing Han army shouted: "Rebellion, murder!" They ran out of the city one after another. Because of their large numbers, the Jinbing Han soldiers in Yicheng couldn't stop them. As a result, this group of Jinbing and Han soldiers ran to the city gate, unexpectedly opened the city gate and shouted: "Believe in the king's army, come on, we have all surrendered!"

The reason for this is that they have no choice but to surrender to the Xin Wang Jun once and don't care about the second time. It was because Yicheng was killed every day at this time, Wang Jun called to send Tian to send horses, and the price was increased, so everyone was bewitched.

It turned out that Zhao Zhen had a lot of sheep, so he gave a sheep. Now, in order to be even more confusing, the price has been raised, send the horse! Horses can cultivate the land, which is naturally better. Of course, arable land, cattle are the best. But although Zhao Zhen has a lot of cattle, he can't support more fields. To cultivate cattle, he still needs to use them in the fields of the army and the people.

Of course, this was also because they were still believing in the past. Since seeing those surrendered Jin Army and Han surrendered soldiers become the Xinwang Army, all the promises of Xinwang have been fulfilled, so they surrendered.

After shouting for a while, Xin Wangjun cavalry appeared first. They lit a torch, and first came over a thousand horses, with fewer people. The Jinbing and Han soldiers who believed in the king's army and surrendered firmly guarded a gate of the city because of their large number of people. The Yicheng Jinbing couldn't take it down for a while, and it didn't take long for the troops of the Xinwang Army to arrive, and a total of 5,000 cavalrymen came to kill.

They rushed into Yicheng, went straight in, and killed the rebelling enemy. Their weapons were better than those of the Han Jin soldiers in Yicheng. As a result, after the defeat of the Jinbing Han Army entered Yicheng, Yicheng was broken in less than ten days.

In this night's chaos, more than four thousand golden soldiers were killed. The Xinwang army easily occupied Yicheng, completely linking the two base areas in the north and south. Since then, the territories occupied by Zhao Zhen's Xin Wang army have joined together.

The scene in front of him gradually became clear, and Liu Qian on the bed saw a young man about 19 or 20 years old.

At this time, Liu Qian found out that he was lying in Nuan Nuan. He was lying on the Tukang, and there was a fire below. Although it was winter, he had come back to his soul, and even his body was well! At this moment, the young man smiled and said: "You are awake!"

Liu Yi felt that this person’s voice was a bit familiar. After thinking about it, he said, "You are..." The young man smiled and said, "You can't remember me? I remember, Huang Shan said that you are the proud person, but I don’t think you look like a Jinbing Han soldier. The Jinbing Han soldier is not arrogant. Otherwise, why would you be a traitor? Hey, people are not ancient. I think how powerful our Han and Tang Dynasties were. It’s Daqin. When the DPRK unified the world, it also made the northern grassland peoples very afraid, but now they have become their dogs."

Liu Yi replied to Qingming, saying: "You are the King of Letters... Zhao Zhen..." Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "You are not in good health. Let's talk about it in two days. You should take care of your body first." After that, Zhao Zhen left. Up.

Liu Wei asked the man who treated him, "Where is this?" The person was gentle and said indifferently: "This is Yicheng. You have been sick for ten days, and you are almost dead. Take a good rest, or your illness will return. Yes!" Liu Qian lay back and said, "Who are you?"

"My name is He Yunzhong, and I am a disciple of Mingjiao. Our senior brother and the letter king Zhao Zhen lost the battle, so we are here to teach. Because you are sick, Zhao Zhen ran to call me, and I came!" He Yunzhong said calmly.

Liu Yi was a little bit incredulous, and said, "What's going on? How can King Xin... What does he want to do for me?"

He Yunzhong looked at him and thought for a while and said: "I don't know, but because this is a matter of believing in the king's thousand years of age, so I came. To be honest, I don't like you. You are all people who betrayed your ancestors." Liu Yi calmly said: "War is like this. The Golden Soldiers are powerful, and we are forced to be like this."

He Yunzhong said: "You can fight to the death for the country and the people!" Liu Yi shook his head and said, "We want to listen to Master Liu Yu. What he says is naturally what he says. We are his subordinates. Moreover, I am still his righteous son. Can't betray."

He Yunzhong said puzzledly: "Just for this loyalty, can you give up your ancestors?" Liu Qian understood, and sighed: "You are a Mingjiao who has never been on the battlefield. You don't understand the love of robe on the battlefield. There is no right or wrong in this kind of sentiment."

Two days later, Liu Qian's health recovered and he went out. He lives in a pretty good place now, but for Yicheng, who is in the occupied area of the King's Army, it doesn't matter whether it is good or bad. The Xinwangjun in the current Yicheng is splitting up a part to go to the north to contact Yue Fei's department, because it has fallen into Zhao Zhen's hands with this city. Under his command, the Xin Wang Jun has connected the two base areas in the north and south into one piece. In addition, people who believe in the mansion of the commander-in-chief of the king's army can enter the place ruled by Zhao Gou in the south, making it easier to sell and buy.

The huge industrial base of Taihang Mountain and the base of Zhongtiao Mountain established by Zhao Zhen produce many special products, including colored glaze crafts, transparent window glass, mirrors, clothing, underwear, perfume, tofu products, fruit juice, jam, sesame oil, soybean oil, There are so many types of products such as mahjong, poker, handicrafts, tea and wine, pencils, letter paper, etc., there are always merchants rushing for them.

After all, the production base in Zhongtiao Mountain is not as large as the production base in Taihang Mountains, and the output is not so large. Now that it is good, we can have more supply of Xinwangjun specialty products and earn more military expenses and food.

Zhao Zhen quickly ordered to classify the surrendered Jinbing Han soldiers. Zhao Zhen assured those Jinbing Han soldiers who had become farmers that Zhao Zhen would send them people to instruct them on farming and give them new farm tools. Allow them to live a prosperous life.

The soldiers of the Jinbing and Han people who wanted to plant the land and countless people rushed to a new life one after another. They became the people under the rule of the King of Letters. Zhao Zhen disregarded the interests of any original landlords and rich men and broke up the land. Although he offended some people, he brought in more people.

After he gave the order, some people who surrendered, some farmers, and hundreds of people divided their fields. Those who wanted to be soldiers of the king's army began to enter the second-line army to guard the city.

Under the order of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, Xin Wang Jun sent all the surplus horses for farming, as well as corresponding farm tools. Many of them were lent to the people in the name of Xinwangjiao Commander-in-Chief Mansion. All these measures will allow the people to pay all their debts to Xinwangjun next year! This is the terrible leapfrog development. Of course, this kind of development is terrible, but it also has shortcomings. Once Zhao Zhen is defeated this time and the people are displaced again, his loss will be great!

However, Zhao Zhen knew one thing that most of the rulers at that time were unwilling to do, that was the policy of loving, protecting, close to the people, and enriching the people. Give the people benefits, let the people live a good life, let the people support themselves, and use the power of the people. With this method more than 800 years later, Balu successfully grew stronger under the rule of the powerful little devil at the time, and defeated the bald-headed army of millions. As for Zhao Ying, he is now successfully doing this.

After that, began to reorganize the army. Zhao Zhen streamlined and reorganized the second-line army, except for the left army, to form the city defense forces of various places. He also sent heroic soldiers to the regular army recruit training camp in Qingshicheng. After training and strict military training, these soldiers who have seen blood will become a tiger and wolf division.

Zhao Zhen occupied a large amount of Jinbing's territory, and most of his men were Jinbing Han soldiers. In order to show that he treated Jinbing Han soldiers equally, he truly regarded Jinbing Han soldiers as the same as the Xinwang army. He wanted all the Jinbing Han troops to be completely integrated into the Xinwang Army, just like Zhao Zhen had merged with the Jinjun Fanmen to drop soldiers.

At this time, Liu Yi blindly followed the soldiers in front of him. Liu Yi knew that this was a Jinbing Han soldier under his own account, but now this Jinbing Han soldier is a person who believes in the king’s army. He also only admitted that he was a soldier in the army of the king. Two nights were enough to let Liu Qian know a lot.

Every night, Liu Qian would hear the endless military anthems outside, and the soldiers who believed in the king's army would teach those who don't know how to sing military anthems on a large scale. They raised a fire, drank some wine, and sang morale-boosting songs.

Listening to the songs of "The smoke rises, the country looks north..." and the later "Get up! Han people who don't want to be slaves! Use us..." and so on to see Liu Qian He Yunzhong said: "Believing in the king's army is a good song! Boost morale!"

Liu Yi asked him incomprehensibly: "Are the others okay?" He shook his head, and believed in Wang Jun's things are good, but he felt incompatible with himself, and incompatible with Mingjiao's standards. He doesn't eat meat from Xinwangjun. Of course, Xinwangjun also has enough vegetarian food. Many of them, such as all kinds of soy products, taste good. There are many glazed glazes in Wang Jun, but there are also bone tools, stone tools and jade tools. There are other things. All in all, there are too many new and strange things to believe in the king's army. For example, the clothes they wear are weird. For example, they attach great importance to boots. For example, their military coats and cloaks. story.

All these made the sensitive He Yunzhong realize that his Mingjiao brothers had changed. The two brothers Zhang Long and Zhang Hu first studied windmills and watermills under the guidance of King Xin Wang, and now they became obsessed with drilling tools under the guidance of King Xin Wang, and they were deeply impressed by the knowledge of King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen.

Mingjiao disciples-jumping up and down to show their own abilities, they show people their abilities, and get people's attention and respect. And the Mingjiao disciples who are good at ironing crafts have accepted a lot of apprentices. They are all focused on the military factory. Now they don't care about what they produce and manufacture, whether it is a siege firearm or a weapon for defending the city!

There are also a few Mingjiao disciples who explored mineral deposits and designed new smelting blast furnaces under the guidance of Zhao Zhen. There are also Mingjiao disciples who are good at spinning and weaving, specializing in Zhao Zhen's pirated British Jenny spinning machine drawings, and arguing with their students all day long, but the more they talk and study, the more enthusiastic they are. All the Mingjiao elites who came this time, most of the Mingjiao disciples, put their hearts on the construction of the army of the faith king.

Since Mingjiao’s political views have never been liked by the superiors, who would use them? Most of them are used! In the end, after Fang La failed, there were many people who were locked in the mountains and could not get out and could not stretch their talents.

Now these outstanding disciples of Mingjiao who have come out of the mountain have the opportunity to show what they have learned, and there is respect that is not available in Mingjiao. The feeling of letting them out from the cage made them unavoidably spread their wings and fly high, even if they unknowingly got on the chariot of the King of Letters.

According to the law, Wang Jun believes that everyone is equal, and that everyone has land and money. This is the system that Mingjiao students all yearn for. There is also the omnipotent Xinwang who provides advanced technology and information, and the like-minded apprentices. They like this place and Xinwangjun. Like everything here, just as drug addiction affects their mind and body, it makes them want to stop.

The reason why He Yuntian is an exception is that he is the kind of indifferent person, he is so calm, so although the belief in Wang Jun is developing rapidly, but this kind of development has caused the Mingjiao disciples to change their hearts. He couldn't accept Mingjiao's die-hard loyalty.

"Go in!" The soldiers of Wang Xinjun unceremoniously pushed Liu Qian in. Inside, Zhao Zhen was talking to Huangfuqiao, a master of Mingjiao architecture.

Their quarrel was about the expansion and construction of Bluestone City. Huangfuqiao, who is good at defending the city and building the city, came up with a set of beautiful polygonal prismatic city models. This type of city is still a strong castle that he and Xin Wang Zhao Zhen discussed together. But when he gave this model of the city to Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen vetoed it. How could this not make Huang Fu Qiao angry.

"No, no, no, I don’t want a war fortress. Of course I will want it in the future, but not now. What I want now is a commercial city. My bluestone city is a commercial city. I want to start business here, and I want a lot of Southern merchants entered this expanded and prosperous bluestone city, not the polygonal castle of the Kingdom. But I will want a tall castle. So I mean, let’s not make this city first, let’s take the commercial city I want Build it up."

"I don't understand." Huangfu Qiao said: "You have defeated the Golden Army and you think you have no enemies besides the Golden Army? Behind this bluestone city, there are Li Yanxian and Zhang Jun loyal to the dog emperor... Uh, then. Run away from the emperor Zhao Gou’s generals. But you don’t want to build it into a war fortress. Do you think I don’t know the shield between you and Zhao Gou? You are a hundred times stronger than him, everyone knows. You have now defeated the Golden Army, Isn’t it afraid that one day that Zhao Gou sent Zhang Jun will also take down your city? You return to the commercial city, you don’t know, once Bluestone City is lost, will you lose a lot?"

Zhao Zhen disagreed and said: "No, look at this city, it has been able to withstand the attack of the Golden Army, can't my soldiers be able to defend the city now? Of course not, Master Huang Fu, I know you are here. Mingjiao is of high rank and knowledgeable, but what I want to tell you is that there is no unbreakable city in the world. The ones that can really be defended are still people. As long as I have a large army, who can come to my city! And, My army can only be supported through the commercial city, otherwise we rely on the poor places of Hedong and Hexi Road. Do you think I can recruit so many soldiers, can I afford it? This city, you can do what I say first Go fix it."

"Didn’t I give you the drawing? You have seen it, and you understand many things. Come to me if you don’t understand. Let’s repair this first commercial city. After it’s finished, we will come to the following. Don’t worry. , As long as you are alive, there are countless cities for you to build. I will leave the words here. You will never finish building the cities in the future..."

In any case, Huangfu Qiao went there anyway, Zhao Zhen was right. He was in his 30s and he had a long life. As long as he and Zhao Zhen do not die, they will be able to build a lot of fortified castles, don't worry.

In fact, he still has Quwo's reconstruction plan. Quwo's city is not the focus, and Zhao Zhen has no intention of building it. What Zhao Zhen wants is to turn Quwo into a big granary, and he only needs to build Quwo into a big warehouse. Then, Zhao Zhen integrated the villages and small towns into farms.

Zhao Zhen arranged five thousand soldiers to defend in Quwo at once, and Quwo arranged to live in tens of thousands of people. They will open up millions of mu of fields next year, half of which will be used for fertilization. Only the other half of the land will be used for farming, and that half will also be planted into coarse grains. Those coarse grains will restore the soil's strength, and then we will consider planting fine grains.

Zhao Zhen also ordered the construction of a large food room in and around Quwo City, turning the area around the city into a large food processing center. Years later, Zhao Zhen has absolute confidence in turning Quwo into the style he wants.

After Huangfu Qiao left, Liu Yi staggered in with the soldiers, and the soldiers who pushed him in left in a blink of an eye. A small group of soldiers was guarding the door. However, in the yard, all the soldiers in that team showed fierce aura, and when a discerning person saw them, they were all masters from the battlefield.

"Your body is much better!" Seeing Liu Qian, Zhao Zhen immediately turned into a smiling Maitreya Buddha. He smiled gently, and even personally poured a cup of tea from a pottery jar. The tea was still There is heat.

Liu Qian was not welcome, so he drank from the cup. He looked at this room. It was ordinary and ordinary, not as good as the place where he lived before. It was just a square table, a few chairs, and no decorations.

There were a lot of documents before Zhao Zhen's several cases, and Zhao Zhen put them in a cowhide clip and collected them.

"You came to me to kill me?" Liu Wei asked. He saw a human head in a corner of the room. Although it had been done, he could still recognize that it was Liu Kui's human head. Liu Kui was killed on the same day, and his head was identified by the soldiers, and then he was filled with lime and placed in Zhao Zhen's place.

Zhao Zhen didn't think of what to do for a while. He felt that it would be good to find a chance to make a wine vessel and give it to Zhang Jun. But it has been too busy, he always forgets when he gets busy.
