Dominate Marvel

"The soldiers and horses must be in your hands." Sun Xiucai said decisively: "Hope cannot be placed on the officers and soldiers who are rotten to the core."

He showed hope: "If you master this army, you can do a lot. Brother Ying, you can defeat the bandits, kill a tiger and that beast, and even rescue Kaifeng. When the time comes, the emperor will definitely issue a decree and reward you. Nanyang and Kaifeng It’s a treasure land!”

Ying Yi looked at Sun Xiucai with an unprecedented look, and he found that Sun Xiucai was so different from before.

There was a sense of strangeness, and even more, something that made Ying Yi feel hesitant.

When Sun Xiucai saw that Ying Yi was silent, he couldn't help but smile and said excitedly: "After the recruitment tomorrow, we must find a way to take away the soldiers and horses, and don't leave them under the nose of Zheng County Zun. These newly recruited soldiers must be cultivated into themselves Man. I will stay here and watch over this place for you."

He added: "The military pay must be secretly transported away as soon as possible. This is a trump card, and you must not let go."

...

The next day the troops were recruited, and all the soldiers were quickly recruited.

It's not that people are rushing to join the army, mainly to make a living. In the era of war and chaos, the political situation was in decline, and most of the people had lost confidence in the court. No one would bat an eyelid even if they said they wanted to fight for the sake of the court's righteousness. On the contrary, it is practical to raise military pay.

As Ying Yi expected, all the military pay required for the new soldiers was allocated from the two million taels of silver.

"I will ask Zheng Wu to transport that batch of military pay to Crescent Valley." These were Zheng Yunzhi's original words.

Ying Yi was silent.

With more than 2,000 new recruits, plus the previous establishment of five hundred households, Zheng Yunzhi waved his hand and gathered a total of thirty-one hundred households, which is three thousand households and one hundred households, for a total of 3,480 people. .

The first five hundred households, except for Zheng Liu's one, which remained unchanged and was transferred to Zheng Yunzhi's standard camp, the other four hundred households were dispersed and reorganized with new recruits. Finally, three fully-staffed Qianhu Camps were formed. Ying Yi became the Qianhu of one of the Qianhu camps, and oversaw the soldiers and horses of three Qianhu camps.

The other two Qianhu officials are Zheng Jiu and Zhu Bingkun.

Zhu Bingkun can be said to be the most senior person in this army. He was the original old man of the Luyang Pass Thousand Household Office, and was also one of the four hundred-household officials in the previous five full establishments of one hundred households. He was mentioned earlier. been.

This man is very low-key, honest, and literate. He is an old military household, so Zheng Yunzhi promoted him this time.

There are three thousand households. Although Ying Yi is the governor on his behalf, he only occupies one. Zheng Jiu is a son of Zheng Yunzhi's family. As for Zhu Bingkun, Ying Yi doesn't know him very well and has no friendship with him.

Ying Yi knew from this that Zheng Yunzhi didn't really trust him - or in other words, this was a common trait among those in power.

It took half a day to reorganize and reorganize, and it was completed before dark. Three thousand households, brand new, although because most of them are newcomers, it looks very loose, but this is a good start. As for the specific training, I will leave it to the people below for now.

Ying Yi only cares about the training of Qianhu under his command.

He called Zhou Li, Lian Biao and the eight newly promoted officials from hundreds of households together to discuss training matters, and Sun Xiucai came.

"Team training is the basis of military formation. You must keep it in mind. Grandpa Qi once said: Opening a large formation to face a big enemy is different from catching a small thief with skills in the field. In a dignified formation, thousands of people line up, and the brave man If you don't have to be first, the coward cannot be behind. You will be poked with spears, poked away with spears, chopped with knives, and killed indiscriminately. The emphasis is on the word 'Qi'." Ying Yi said: "The first thing to practice is, It’s a military formation. To practice a dignified formation, start with whole-team training.”

After some instructions, Ying Yi sent away ten officials from hundreds of households before talking to Sun Xiucai.

Sun Xiucai looked solemn and said in a low voice: "Brother Ying, do you want to hand over the military pay to Zheng County Zun? Zheng Wu has just set off with Biaoying."

There was no emotion on Ying Yi's face, and he said, "What do you think?"

He sighed: "Zheng Wu is going to collect military pay. Should I stop him? He is Zheng County Zun's confidant. Once he does this, he will really fall out with Zheng County Zun."

"At this moment, how can we care so much? Once the army's salary is controlled by Zheng County Zun, will the army listen to him or you?" The scholar jumped to his feet and said: "How can I not know Zheng County Zun's thoughts? His thousands of soldiers and horses are not well trained. , as soon as the Huguang soldiers arrive, he will definitely send them out to assist. What kind of virtue is the Huguang soldiers? What kind of bullshit is Zuo Liangyu? He dares to sell even Wang Qiaonian, who is Zheng Yunzhi?! Do you want to watch him turn these thousands of people away? Sent to death?”

Facing the scholar's anger, Ying Yi remained silent.

After a long time, he said: "I'll be back as soon as I go."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Sun Xiucai looked at Ying Yi's back, a smile appeared on his face, and the light in his eyes was brighter than ever.

"Brother Ying, I am doing this for your own good..."

Ying Yi walked silently in the mountains and forests in the dark night. The night could not block his sight. He was very complicated and thought about a lot at once.

He thought about his planning, for that batch of military pay, did he really have to hand it over to Zheng Yunzhi now? The scholar's thoughts became increasingly clear to Ying Yi, but he hesitated and felt a little withdrawn in his heart. He couldn't help but ask himself: What should I do?

There are millions of thieves and hundreds of millions of people. The Tatars are watching with eager eyes. The Ming Dynasty is in danger. China is about to die. And he, Ying Yi, will one day grow a pig tail on the back of his head sooner or later! Is this what he wants?

Are you watching helplessly?

With a long sigh, a light finally flashed in Ying Yi's eyes.

Zheng Wu led Biaoying all the way in the dark. After midnight, he walked out of the forest and came to Xiaowangzhuang.

Crows circled the trees at night, and owls chirped. The silence was so quiet that it was chilling. Looking at the small Wangzhuang, Zheng Wu cheered up: "The military pay is of great importance and must be transported tonight. Enter the village!"

Walking through the forest path, Zheng Wu led the way. When he raised his head, his heart suddenly trembled and he stopped in his tracks!

In the night, a vague figure stood in front of the tomb at the entrance of the village.

Someone screamed: "Ghost!"

Suddenly there was chaos.

"shut up!"

Zheng Wu shouted: "What kind of ghost is there in this world!"

Cold sweat broke out on his back. He swung the knife and took a few steps with courage: "Who is it?!"

The figure took two steps, and a familiar voice came: "It's me."

Zheng Wu felt relieved when he heard this: "It's Brother Ying!" Then he said in confusion: "Brother Ying, why are you here?!"

When everyone heard that it was Ying Yi, they immediately relaxed, and many of them sat down on the ground in fear and gasped.

Ying Yi's eyes penetrated the night and fell on Zheng Wu's face. He was silent for a moment and said, "I can't give you this batch of military pay."

Zheng Wu was startled and his expression changed: "Brother Ying, why did you say this?!"

Ying Yi repeated: "Military pay cannot be handed over to the county magistrate."

Zheng Wu's hand holding the handle of the knife tightened: "Brother Ying, what do you mean?"

Ying Yi walked over slowly, and Zheng Wu couldn't help but take a few steps back. He admired Ying Yi before, but now he was afraid. Others don't know how powerful Ying Yi is, but he does. That is an unrivaled figure!

Ying Yi sighed and said, "Brother Zheng, don't be nervous."

He walked closer and slowly sat down: "You might as well listen to what I have to say first."
