Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 663 The mobilization ability that surpasses the times

The people of Chang'an were disappointed, because Zhang Shengren finally chose Luoyang, the capital of God, as the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But soon, Changan people found a place to comfort themselves.

Because although the capital of the Great Zhou was in Luoyang, the name of Jingzhao Mansion in Chang'an still existed.

Everyone knows that Jingzhao Mansion is the official name of the capital of the imperial court, and Shendu is just a nondescript name given up by that crazy lady of Zetian Dasheng.

'Compared to our Jingzhao Mansion in Chang'an, it is still a step behind! '

An old man with a limped leg and a horrible scar from the corner of his left eye to his left cheek was talking to himself on the Baqiao.

"The saint's frame is here! The saint's frame is here!" Someone shouted, and the crowd suddenly became commotion, and the scar-faced old man stood on tiptoe and looked out.

There were indeed chariot frames and banners indistinctly in the distance, but before they could see them clearly, there were more than a dozen knights in brocade clothes riding their horses from a distance.

The knight in purple silk and brocade robe shouted loudly to the crowd at Baqiao.

"The sage does not enter Chang'an City today, but orders civil and military officials, honored ministers and noble relatives to show his mausoleum holy."

The so-called Xianling Mausoleum is actually Zhang Yichao's mausoleum located in Liquan County, northwest of Xianyang. This may be the most shabby mausoleum among the emperors of all dynasties.

Whenever a new dynasty is established, if the ancestors are named, even if they don't know where the ancestors are buried, they must definitely rejuvenate the mountain mausoleum, but Zhang Yichao did not.

His mausoleum is not a common mountain tomb in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no cemetery.

Because when Zhang Yichao was buried, he was only buried according to the specifications of ordinary officials, so he was not eligible to enjoy the mountain mausoleum and mausoleum Xuangong.

After Zhang Ting established a new dynasty, only temples, gods and stone beasts were added to Zhang Yichao's mausoleum. Even on the tombstone, there are still written Tang Taibao, Zuo Shenwu Commanding Army, Nanyang Founding Duke Zhang Yiyi Chaogong typeface.

It doesn't match the name Xianling at all.

"It's too rudimentary! It's too rudimentary!" Gao Baorong beside Zhang Tie said repeatedly: "Saint, the craftsmen who built the mountain tomb for King Wuxin in the former Jing Dynasty are still there. I ask someone to go back to Jiangling and summon them to choose a place for Huanzu. rebuild the hills."

After Gao Baorong made his statement, some people and others immediately spoke out.How can there be no such thing as flattering Ma Xiguang.

Although this guy is a bit stingy, but now is not the time when Ma Chu is still around. In order to save his life, Ma Xiguang is quite willing.

He first gave Zhang Huaiqing a betrothal gift worth [-] guan, and now he was thinking of spending more of the [-] guan that Zhang Tie left him, so as to save money and avoid disaster.

"My minister seconded the proposal. When I was in Changsha, I heard that there are high-quality trees in Xi and Chenshen Mountains. I ask the sage to allow me to cut down the trees in Wuling Mountain and build a mountain mausoleum for my uncle."

Zhang Ting smiled and waved his hands, "The country is newly established, and a thousand wastes are waiting to be rebuilt. The people of the world have not yet had enough food and clothing due to the disaster of 200 years of swordsmanship.

A certain man built a cemetery here, surrounded it with earthen walls for three miles, and moved [-] households here, exempting them from taxes, and letting them clean the cemetery. "

After finishing speaking, Zhang Ting took a look at Gao Baorong and Ma Xiguang who were still a little nervous. These two people, how should I put it, it is definitely not the original intention to offer sacrifices, but their arms cannot twist their thighs.

Although the soil has been offered now, I feel uneasy all the time, because from ancient times to the present, there are not many lords of subjugation like them who can die well.

The two wanted to play a happy and reluctant to leave, but they didn't have enough skills, and they didn't have the thick skin of An Le Gong, so they only thought about how to curry favor with Zhang Tie to save their family and life.

In Zhang Ting's view, Gao Baorong and Ma Xiguang are the kind of cowardly and not-so-minded masters, and it is difficult for Zhang Ting to regard them as threats.

Moreover, the flattery that these two people sometimes patted was really blunt. They felt uncomfortable when they were patted, and Zhang Tie was even more uncomfortable when they were patted.

At the same time, Zhang Tie still needs the exemplary role of the two of them.

If the conquest of Shu goes well, there will be only the Southern Tang, Qianyue, Southern Han, Qingyuan Junliu Congxiao, Dali, and Jinghai in the world.

Among them, the Southern Han Dynasty, Dali, and Jing Haijun must fight.

The Liu family in the Southern Han Dynasty was a group of perverts, and even fighting would not be enough to anger the common people.

Dali, where the Tong Navy is located, has not been completely conquered by even the Tang Dynasty, so it must be fought.

Jing Haijun, since Wu Quan's death, has fallen into a state of separation between the general Yang Shaohong and the Twelve Envoys, and must use force to wipe them out.

But the remaining Southern Tang, Qian Yue and Qingyuan troops stayed to serve, Zhang Ting really didn't want to fight.

Not to mention the wealth of these three places, they still have a well-developed shipbuilding industry. It would be a pity if they were destroyed.

Moreover, whether it is Li Jing, Lord Qian Yue, or Liu Congxiao, they can all be appeased, and they have no bad deeds, so Zhang Ting still needs Gao Baorong and Ma Xiguang to show the rest of them.

So Zhang Tie was about to flatter them, he took Gao Baorong and Ma Xiguang's hands and said to them.

"Huan Zu was in Hexi in the past, and he practiced the policy of being diligent and caring for the people. If he wanted to come to the Daxing Mausoleum and suffer the people, he would definitely not be willing. If he can be kind to the people, it will be far better than building a mountain mausoleum.

Today I will offer one thousand guan, De Chang (Gao Baorong) and De Pi (Ma Xiguang) will each offer [-] guan, how about rewarding the old and young in Guanzhong? "

After listening to the two, they were extremely moved, and Gao Baorong even choked up.

This is a real flattery. Although the two of them are princes, Zhang Ting does not allow them. They are not qualified to use this kind of reward.

At the same time, it is also an extra layer of protection for them, and Zhang Ting is expressing that he has no suspicion of them, nor does he mean to do anything to him.

Near noon, civil and military officials and Ding Zhuang who were ordered to come from all over the place began to gather outside Xianling.

Zhang Tie looked around, except for the imperial guards in the three towns of Huwei, Changguo, and Zhenguo, and the Weisuo army of the three guards in Chang'an.

The inspector Yading, Unity Archer, Long Spear Yicong and Xiaoqi Yicong under the control of the seventeen inspection departments north and east of Chang'an have all arrived.

Around Xianling alone, there are probably no less than 1 people. Most of them wear linen clothes, and a few of them wear cotton clothes. They are all wealthy people among the people. Of course, there are even fewer people with horses and armor.

Zhang Zhou's control over armor is different from that of previous dynasties.

Previous dynasties and dynasties had extremely strict management of civilian armor. No matter who you are or how high your position is, if you hide more than a certain amount of armor, it is a capital offense.

But Zhang Zhou is not. First of all, there are a large number of meritorious soldiers among the people, and they are given armor by the emperor.

Most of these are military rank officials who have made great achievements. The Privy Council has roughly counted that there are at least [-] sets of folk cloth armor, iron bar armor, ring lock armor, and Central Asian chain mail.

So many armors were given to maintain the inheritance of the martial arts, and to prepare for going out to open up in the future. After all, there is armor to fight without armor, which will be one of Zhang Zhou's martial arts killers going out.

At the same time, among the people, Zhang Zhou did not prohibit the common people from owning all kinds of leather armor and paper armor with less than three layers, they only need to report and register in the Yamen.

Therefore, folk solidarity athletes and followers, as long as they have the ability, often choose to buy a set of leather armor for themselves.

This kind of three-layer leather armor is definitely not good for defending against spears and axes. Needless to say, crossbow arrows and hard bows can also break through this armor.

However, the horse-step bow, horizontal knife, and long and short daggers still have a certain effect in defending against eight fights or less.

Of course, you can also change it magically, and embed the iron sheet inside the leather armor, which can immediately double the defense power, but again, once you are found out, you will be exiled at least, or beheaded at worst.

At the same time, there are also crossbows that are strictly prohibited. This thing has a high number of stones, and it can't even guard against cloth armor and armor, so it must be banned.

Amidst the sound of the golden drum, Zhang Teng walked to Zhang Yichao's magpie platform, and he ordered the guards in Jinyi to wave the flag to signal to the athletes from the Qiji Club, the Bow and Arrow Club, and the Spear Club in the distance. Yi Cong come forward.

All the inspection departments inspected, and all the Qiji, gun sticks, and bow and arrow clubs saw the banner with their heads, and immediately organized the athletes and followers under their command to slowly move forward with bows and guns.

Although these athletes did not have a uniform attire, they only wore blue, white, and gray linen clothes, which did not look neat.

But their foreheads were wrapped in red foreheads by coincidence, and they lined up under the banner of their respective inspection departments, and they looked quite orderly.

When they were fifty or sixty steps away from the platform where Zhang Yu was standing, seven or eight thousand athletes followed the ringing of the golden gong and shouted "Habayashi!"Habayashi! ' Twice, then stand still.

If there are officials from Mengshu and Southern Tang here at this moment, they will definitely be surprised, because the discipline shown by these seven or eight thousand athletes will far exceed many of their regular troops.

Zhang Ting was also very happy. Zhang Zhou had been fighting all these years. The previous bitter battle against Liu Zhiyuan and Khitan did not end until September, and then he immediately started the southern expedition to Nanping and Ma Chu, and did not move until the first day of the war.

Now it's only the end of the first lunar month, and an army is about to be dispatched to attack Shu again.

The frequency of wars is not infrequent. Even if Liu Zhiyuan, Khitan and Nanping and Ma Chu were not defeated by the same group of people, even if Liu Zhiyuan was pacified, only four months had passed.

The exhaustion of the elite in the army is inevitable, so Zhang Ting needs to recruit a large number of auxiliary soldiers like United Archers and Yi Cong Xiaoqi.

One is to use them to do dirty and tiring work, and the other is to urge the elite pro-military and forbidden troops to fight hard.

Don't think that you are irreplaceable, who dares not work hard, there are so many people who can come on the bench.

Therefore, the large-scale mobilization in Guanzhong this time is a drill for the mobilization of armed forces below the county level in the Guanzhong area. The result made Zhang Tie very satisfied.

Through the dissemination of the Imperial Army-Guardian Army in the countryside, the inspection departments of various places control the three tricks of Qiji, gun sticks, bow and arrow club Ding Zhuang in turn, and martial arts students. mobilization ability.

When Zhang Tie arrived in Huayin County, he issued an edict to mobilize Guanzhong. As a result, in just eight days, he mobilized [-] united archers, [-] long spears, and [-] righteous soldiers.

Judging from the current state, these people can be drawn to the battlefield almost immediately, and their combat effectiveness may even be stronger than that of the soldiers in Mengshu's towns, because they have a visible promotion channel to boost morale.

Zhang Ting believes that if the time is extended to one month, he can mobilize 170 troops from the [-] million pass in Dingkou.

In addition to the more than two million Dingkou in Longyou, Hexi, just half an arm in the northwest can provide him with at least 35 troops.

Although Zhang Wei can't afford so much food, supplies and rewards for such an extreme mobilization, it seems that it is still possible to pull out 5 to [-] people, and the combat effectiveness is not bad. stand up.

. . . .

The patrol inspectors recognized their flags, and they were shining eyes of admiration and admiration, especially those patrol inspectors standing at the front, who were basically acquaintances of Zhang Tie.

Zhang Shengren walked off the stage, and the scarred face at the beginning made him feel very familiar.

Before Zhang Tie could speak, Scarface sobbed and knelt on the ground on one knee, his big gray head raised, and his mouth was already yelling.

"Saint, this servant is Zhao Scar from Feng'an Town!" After yelling, Zhao Scar seemed to have just remembered, and pretended to shout loudly.

"Chen Zhao Yan, inspector of the inspection department of Zhaolingdu, kowtow to the Holy Son of Heaven!"

As he said that, Zhao Scar was about to bow down, Zhang Tie quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him up, kicking his lame leg unceremoniously.

This guy was a soldier of the Zhangwu Army recruited in Weizhou when Zhang Tie first entered the customs. He injured his leg after the battle in Yanshi City.

"Scar Zhao, why are you growing old so fast? Did you only know how to find your mother-in-law after leaving the army?"

When Zhang Tie faced such low-level martial arts, he always had a rough look, which was completely different from when he was with civil servants like Sun Guangxian and Lu Yan.

Hearing the emperor talking so intimately with him, Zhao Scar was so excited that he just wanted to jump three feet high. He looked at Zhang Chen with a flushed face, and laughed to defend himself.

"Saint, Scarlet Zhao's mother-in-law has been looking for a lot. It's all the kindness of the saint. He rewarded Scar with three hundred guan of gold and silver. Of course, it will be used to marry more aunts and aunts.

But the saint is relieved, Scar himself is lame, but he has trained several warriors for the saint. "

With that said, Zhao Scar got up, dragged a person behind him, and stood in front of Zhang Tie.

"This is Han Huzi from Zhaoling Village. He can stay on horseback for three days without sleep. He can draw a bow from both sides. With a hard bow of more than eight strokes, he can shoot fifteen consecutive shots without stopping. He is only 17 years old this year."

The ability to continuously shoot the bow is approximately equal to the magazine capacity of a gun in later generations, which is a very important indicator for archers.

Shooting fifteen arrows in a row with a hard bow of more than eight buckets is a very terrifying standard. Generally, this kind of person's accuracy is also very good. Fifteen arrows can shoot down at least eight or nine people.

This is still the level of fighting elites. If you fight miscellaneous soldiers, you might be able to shoot down twelve or three people.

In an army, there are fifty or sixty such elite archers, and they can almost shoot two or three thousand miscellaneous soldiers so that they dare not step forward, or even collapse directly.

Besides, Han Huzi is only 17 years old, so he has a bright future!

Zhang Tie looked up and down a few times, and then laughed out loud with satisfaction. He looked at the Zhongshu Sheng Luantai waiting for the imperial edict behind him, which was specially used to be Zhang Tie's personal military secretary.

"Remember, Zhaoling Ferry Inspection Department Han Huzi is good at shooting!" After speaking, Zhang Qian patted Han Huzi on the shoulder.

"Fight the enemy bravely, and after passing the provincial martial arts test, I will promote you to come to Regret Mountain Capital."

Han Huzi kept shaking his body in excitement, he looked at Zhang Ting eagerly, but couldn't say a word while whimpering, Zhao Scar was even more excited when he saw Zhang Ting giving face like this.

"Saint, there are also warriors under my command." A strong man in the distance howled eagerly.

Zhang Ting then patted Zhao Scar on the shoulder and walked forward.

Zhang Tie was already familiar with this strong man. His name was Shen Zhixun from the Shen family in the Liugu Department of Liangzhou.

He was originally a warrior of Zuo Yu Linwei, and had a promising future, but unfortunately, when he attacked Du Chongwei in Songzhou, he was shot in the shoulder by a flow arrow, and he became inflamed, and had to break his arm to survive.

Let's talk about luck, he is just as unlucky as Zhang Xiaobao, and the promising general can only retire from the army sadly.

Let's just say it's unfortunate, with the medical skills of this era, it's hard for one in thirty people to survive an amputated arm.

"Shen Zhixun, inspector of Hanpidu Inspection Department of Chenhu County, kowtow to see the saint!"

"Get up! Get up!" Zhang Tie quickly helped Shen Zhixun up, touched his empty left sleeve, his eyes turned red very naturally.

"You are my warrior! Without your left hand, can you still get used to life?"

A strong man like Shen Zhixun burst into tears just by Zhang Tie's words.

"It's hard for me to serve the saint in this life, and I will be the minion of the saint in the next life.

What is the loss of the left hand? The courtier has one wife and one concubine, and the tenants are fifteen households. No matter whether they live on a daily basis or cultivate land, they don’t need to do it themselves. "

"That's good! That's good!" Zhang Ting said repeatedly in relief, pointing straight like a chicken with a big head pecking at rice.

"Gongsun Nian! Hurry up and pay homage to the saint!" Shen Zhixun roared, only to see a strong man from the inspection department of Hanpidu.

Zhang Ting took a look. He was a strong man with a stature similar to that of Qiong Re Duojin. He was not as strong as a bear, but he was more flexible. It was just that when he walked, he seemed to be walking like a dragon and a tiger, and the ground was shaking.

"This is Gongsun Nian, a native of Huxian County. His hands have the strength of a thousand catties. He once lifted a steer at the ferry. He can also fly across the mountains. He often goes to Niushou Mountain to catch apes with his bare hands. Once he enters the forest, he can fight hundreds of enemies. Soldiers."

Good guy, if you can catch a bull by its horns and knock down a steer, and you can catch apes in a mountain, this is a war machine!The road to Chushu Mountain is steep, and it is just for such a person.

"Also remember that Gongsun Nian of Hanpidu Gongsun is unparalleled in bravery, and will be reused in the future!"

After Zhang Tie finished speaking, Shen Zhixun and Gongsun Nian burst into cheers.

At the same time, the rest of the inspection departments became even more excited. They waved their flags and pushed the brave men to the front like a competition.

Zhang Tie went all the way, Luantai waited for an edict to record more than a hundred brave men.

Powerful, sharpshooting, and unparalleled in riding skills.There are also those who are good at water warfare, and those who are good at mountain warfare, there are all kinds of people.

After the review, Zhang Tie rewarded the athletes and Yi Cong who were present with a piece of white cotton cloth each, and by the way, held a large banquet outside the Xianling Mausoleum, drinking happily with these most basic forces.

They will be the key members of Fashu.
