The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 85: The People's Ideas Are Added

From the barracks of the Qing army, Jiang Chuan seized several thousand stones of grain, grass, black beans and other materials.At the same time, he also obtained more than 1000 sets of various armors, all of which he stored in the system warehouse and weapon arsenal.

After seeing all these things packed, another soldier came to report that more than 1000 horses were found in the Qing army barracks.

Jiang Chuan looked at it with great interest. Most of these horses were war horses, and a small part belonged to draft horses, which were used to pull carts.

Compared with the war horses produced by the system, these horses are generally shorter in height and smaller in size, and they are typical Mongolian horses.

In fact, Manchu's own territory did not produce many horses, and basically all horses were obtained from Mongolia.The advantages of Mongolian horses are good endurance, strong physical strength, no need for too careful service, strong ability to adapt to the environment, and can fight in various harsh environments.In the past, the Mongolian army was able to sweep half of the world, and the tough and brave Mongolian horses can be said to have contributed a lot.

However, the disadvantage of the Mongolian horse is that it has a small load due to its size and cannot carry heavy fighters like heavy cavalry for combat.

And each of the war horses produced by the system is tall and big, a typical Arabian horse, with good load bearing, strong explosive power, high sprint speed, and can understand the knight's intentions relatively quickly, and cooperate well with people. There is not much response to this kind of sound, so it is very suitable for cavalry combat.

But the biggest disadvantage is lack of endurance, and they are more picky about feed and combat environment, and these are the advantages of Mongolian horses.

Looking at these horses, Jiang Chuan was already thinking in his mind that if he crossed Mongolian horses and Arabian horses, would it be possible to breed war horses with all the advantages of the two horses?
In the era of cold weapons, excellent war horses definitely have important strategic significance.

Don't worry about it for now, let's go back and talk about it all.Anyway, Erlong Valley has a lot of terrain, and there are a lot of weeds by the lake, so feeding horses should not be too convenient.

"These horses are ours from now on, and we must get them back one by one." Jiang Chuan ordered the commander.

"No!" The commander excitedly agreed, and hastily arranged for people to go.

As a soldier, there are few who don't like horses.Men in ancient times wanted to own a horse, just like modern men want to own a car of their own. It is a matter of showing status and masculinity.

After the entire Qing army camp was basically wiped out, another [-] cavalry were left behind in the barracks, and the scouts were released [-] miles away, so that they could find the reinforcements from the Tartars as soon as possible.

Back in Liaoyang City again, Jiang Chuan felt hungry.It's almost dusk from morning to now, and it's time to eat, but he has been in a state of excitement, so he doesn't feel hungry.The overall situation of the meeting has been decided, and the spirit relaxes, and only then does it feel hungry.

Although he really didn't want to eat the unpalatable dry food, but he had to be careful on the battlefield, so Jiang Chuan ate a meal of dry meat, dry food and water like all the soldiers.

While tearing up the dry meat that can knock out teeth, Jiang Chuan muttered that he must improve the war rice after going back. This taste is simply anti-human, the system is really cheating, even if I give me some instant noodles. .

After gnawing on the hard-to-swallow war meal while complaining, Momozui stood up and stretched a long stretch.

Looking at the sky in the distance, he reckoned that even if the Tartar reinforcements set off overnight, no matter if they withdrew from Shangjing or Datong City to rush back to Liaoyang, they would arrive at least tomorrow morning, which meant that he could at least stay in Liaoyang City. one night.

What better thing to do tonight?Jiang Chuan began to brainstorm again, thinking about what gifts to leave for the Tartars or what else he could search for back from Liaoyang City.

After thinking about it, this thing is basically searched, and the people's things can't be moved.

That's right, there are no more things, but there are still people. Population is the most needed resource now.With the population, you can quickly pull up a large army. There is nothing more urgent than the population.

No matter how small this city of Liaoyang is, it must have tens of thousands of people, and taking a part of it back will be of great use.

Suddenly thinking of this, Jiang Chuan slapped his thigh and spun around excitedly, but frowned again just thinking about it.

Although there are many people here, how to make them willing to go back with me is a big problem.

In the past, the people on the frontier could use Tartars to frighten them, but now this tactic might not work on the people in Liaoyang.

These people have been under the rule of the Manchu Qing for several years, and have begun to adapt to the rule of the Manchu Qing psychologically.

What should I do then?After thinking about it for a long time, Jiang Chuan didn't come up with a good idea, and in the end he simply stopped thinking about it.He felt ruthless in his heart, and if the people were unwilling at that time, he would escort them back with knives and guns, regardless of whether he was willing or not.After entering the Erlong Valley, when there is food, drink and a house to live in, people's hearts will gradually return.

Although the effort is slow, it is useful after all.

After making up his mind, Jiang Chuan took a cavalry centurion to patrol the streets, just in time to see what the ancient county of Liaoyang looked like.

In fact, Liaoyang City is not very big, there are only four main streets in the southeast, northwest, and government offices and various institutions in the north, and a commercial area in the middle, where all kinds of shops and workshops are located.The south is a slum where the common people live.

After Jiang Chuan came out of the Liaoyang County Government, he patrolled from north to south. There were basically few people in the streets and alleys along the way. From time to time, there was the sound of horseshoes. This was the patrol team arranged by the commander.After seeing Jiang Chuan and his party, they all came over to pay respects.

When he arrived at the business district, he found that basically all the shops had their doors tightly closed. Jiang Chuan could even see pairs of prying eyes through the cracks in the doors.

Jiang Chuan could understand the psychology of these common people.As for the people, no matter who rules, they have to pay taxes, pay food and serve corvee.This Liaoyang is on the border, and the scene of changing the king's flag at the top of the city has already been staged several times. The people are a little calm and have learned the best attitude of waiting and watching.

When passing by the entrance of a grain store, he saw a lot of bloodstains on the cobblestone road in front of the door. After Jiang Chuan asked the passing patrol team, he learned that when the city was broken, several guys took advantage of the chaos to rob the grain store, and they happened to be given by the patrol team. I ran into it, so I chopped it on the spot.

After listening, looking at the blood on the ground, Jiang Chuan's heart moved, and he suddenly had an idea.

　The first update arrives.Here are two questions to explain again: First, some book lovers struggle with some settings in the book that do not conform to the historical background. I just want to say, big brother, this is an overhead world, please!The second is that the geographical orientation of this world is completely different from our real geographical orientation, that is to say, except for some of the same names, the others have nothing to do with reality.So don't tell me that Liaoyang is in Liaoning and Datong is in Shanxi. The distance between the two sides is thousands of kilometers, not the two hundred miles you said in your book.I just used a name, so don't take it seriously.
