Shenkeng system

Chapter 225
The official was promoted again, but he didn't take care of all the affairs of the Taiyuan Mansion. The officials in the Song Dynasty were extremely redundant. According to Gao Qiu, Zhao Si was just controlling the soldiers and horses. The most important role was to guard the Yanmen Pass. For the time being, I will leave it to other deputy staff to take care of it...

Of course, if you occasionally want to go to Taiyuan Mansion to ask questions, it is also possible, after all, Zhao Si is the leader.

"I didn't expect the imperial court to entrust me with such an important position. Thinking of Mr. Yang Linggong, I feel a lot of pressure!" Zhao Si said with a smile after receiving the order.

"Warfighting is your forte. Now that you have even made such a magical weapon as artillery, there is really nothing to worry about..."

"Hey... I have many strengths, such as machinery, energy, etc. Why do you ask me to fight...?"

"Hey! You said you were fat and you were panting... Didn't we decide this before? Now it's basically based on our ideas! After taking over the frontier army here, we have to make great efforts to rectify it... ...Of course, by the way, protect our property here, this thing is a cash cow..."

"Don't worry!"

"Of course, there is a lot of coal in this place. If you try to make your soldiers live well, you will win their support. Don't be stingy with money. As long as you hold power, you will earn it back. You have an army in your hand." "You are the most confident in making money!" Gao Qiu sounded like someone who has experienced it and imparts his experience...

"Thank you, my lord, for giving me some advice, my lord's words will be engraved in my heart!"

"Haha, that's good, that's good! By the way, the craftsman who cast the cannon, I have to bring back a few, so that the military supervisor can get this thing out too! It's really amazing!"

"Yes! Your lord!"

"Presenting the cannon is another great achievement for you boy! This time the victory, the Holy One is already very happy, and your master Jingkong Master has been named a national teacher! The Holy One who favored Taoism and pursued longevity, now keeps his mouth shut It's all Zen..."

"It seems that Master and the old man taught the Buddhist version of "Journey to the West", which has changed a lot for the Holy One! It's a pity that Buddhism and Taoism are the same. It is good for self-cultivation, but indulging in it is not conducive to a king's governance. ..." Zhao Si said seriously.

"That's why you are overthinking! Since listening to the master's lecture, the whole person is no longer indulging in calligraphy, painting, kicking, drinking, color and sound. The dragon body is peaceful, the spirit is boosted, and it is full of love and compassion for the common people in the world. Now Hua Shigang They were all abolished, and those rare treasures were also sold by him to rich ministers, and the money was used to relieve the scattered refugees..."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Of course, this is the blessing of the common people!"

"It seems that the master is a master after all, and he still has a good way! Changing one person can change the fate of thousands of people! It's really high! Amitabha, so good!"

"Hahahaha! Your boy will be beheaded by thousands of people in this battle! The Xuanfo name is very funny..."

"It's okay! Although the boy has been beheaded by thousands of people, but his heart is bright and good, he will definitely become a Buddha, Amitabha!"

Gao Qiu laughed and left!One day later, he ran over to have a big drink with Zhao Si, and two days later, he led the Tianwu army to set off and retreat back to the capital, leaving only the Xiang army with less than [-] people...

The Xiang army was originally shabby and looked like a group of beggars, but this time they were lucky enough to be under Zhao Si's command. When they were improving the food and heating of the soldiers, Zhao Si ordered them to treat them equally and send them to the brothers of the Xiang army. They were very touched by eating meat, dried vegetables, cotton clothes and iron stoves!This is the first time since Xiang Jun came into being...

Therefore, in addition to Zhao Si being supported by the soldiers of the Tianwu Army, these Xiang Army brothers are also grateful to him.

The Tianwu army withdrew, but Zhao Si asked Zhao Si to keep the many food, iron stoves, and of course a large amount of equipment prepared earlier. Otherwise, the group of Xiang army brothers would be crazy about how to deal with Xiefenggu with their arms bare Thieves who generally want to break out?

Moreover, there are more than a hundred gunners trained by the Tianwu Army, and they will train newcomers and set up artillery battalions...

"Brothers! The commander-in-chief has come to see us!..." The commander of the Xiang army was a general named Wang Ting.

Zhao Si was going to the Xiang army camp, and he didn't greet them in advance. When he walked to the gate of the camp, he was met by Wang Ting, who was patrolling...

As the leader of the Xiang Army, Wang Ting had of course met Zhao Si. Even if he met him twice in total, the first time was when Zhao Si ordered him to lead the Xiang Army brothers to escort a large number of unruly people up the mountain to remove the good things and goods left by the bandits. Treasures; the second time is when meritorious deeds are rewarded, and treasures are rewarded to Xiangjun!
It is said that this time the bandits were suppressed, but unexpected wealth was captured!This group of bastard thieves and bandits have done business without capital in the whole of the Northern Song Dynasty. The wealth they plundered is not counted as being brought into the Valley of the Evil Wind by them, but it was not taken away in time, and it was missed by hundreds of cottages, big and small. All kinds of gold, silver, pearls, jade, rare and exotic treasures, etc., have a total estimated value of more than ten million taels!
In Gao Qiu's words, even the current inner treasury of the Song Dynasty does not have so much money!

This time, the Tianwu army is full!In addition to the need to hand in two or three million taels, many of them were intercepted by Zhao Sigaoqiu, and some were rewarded to the soldiers, some were kept as military expenses, and some were compensated for the food and livestock expropriated from the people!
Of course, Zhao Si didn't forget Brother Xiang Jun about the reward. This was the first time for Xiang Jun's people to see the reward, so they were very grateful to Zhao Si!

So, Zhao Si was walking outside the camp of the Xiang Army, and was seen by Wang Ting, who ran over to pay respects, and then heard that Zhao Si had actually come to inspect the Xiang Army, so excited, he led Zhao Si into the camp area, shouting at the top of his voice said a word...

Of course, the members of the Xiang Army are not in a high mood now, because after all, the Chinese New Year is over, and the members of the Tianwu Army have all gone back, and they, the Xiang Army, have been left behind!I don't know what medicine I bought in the gourd above!You must know that they are vassals enlisted by the Tianwu Army, and they have never come out alone!The family members of each of them live near the Tianwu Army garrison, relying on the army's foster care to survive... During the Chinese New Year, everyone was a little homesick...

However, seeing the handsome man who came, everyone immediately regained their spirits. Since they have been well fed recently, everyone has enough food, warm clothes, and a fire, so each of them is in good physical condition, and they stand upright to welcome Zhao Si vigorously.

"General Wang, gather people and bring them to the school grounds!"

The school ground that Zhao Sikou mentioned was actually the training ground left by the Tianwu Army. Because the Xiang Army did not have strict training tasks, there was no school ground around their camp.

"Soldiers, all of you will gather at the school grounds in a while. I have some good news to tell you..." Zhao Si greeted everyone, walked around casually, checked their living conditions, and rode to the school grounds up...
