After hearing Yu Chao's way of dealing with Li Xiaoya, Huo Guang couldn't help frowning: "Yu Chao is too disregarding the overall situation. I remember that the kitten told Yu Chao that if he wanted to help Li Xiaoya build up the airs of Jifeng Camp, there were too few 500 soldiers and four lieutenants. Jifeng Camp may not be able to form combat power in a short period of time."

Qin Feng disagreed.

"Brother Huo, although you have been the Minister of War for a few years, you still don't know much about it. Although Yu Chao is a little stingy, it is reasonable. Zhuifeng Camp was established by him, and his feelings are extraordinary. If you want to divide half of it, it is natural to feel sad and stomachache. It is also forgiven for using some small means. If it were me, I would do this. From a big perspective, it is understandable that Yu Chao does this. Li Xiaoya has no war in this short period of time. The most important thing is to suppress bandits and quell the rebellion, and this process is also justified.

Fortunately, Li Xiaoya is the best time to build the Jifeng Camp. In such a war with little intensity, it is still very beneficial to the growth of Jifeng Camp. With five hundred cavalry as the core, it is almost the same. At that time, Zhuifeng Camp was formed in two years, and in the third year, it pulled out a powerful force. Now Jifeng Camp does not lack war horses, but only people are short of people. But now the three counties in Yiyang are the most lacking in people. It depends on how Li Xiaoya operates. If he has appropriate methods and clever minds, he should be able to build a cavalry unit that is no worse than Zhuifeng Camp in two to three years."

Ma Xiangnandao on the side, "Your Majesty is right, but I still have a little immature idea. I think a senior general is not suitable for leading a unit for a long time. Because over time, it is easy for soldiers to only know this general but not the court or the emperor to make this army actually become the general's private army. This is very inappropriate for the stability of the court and the security of the country. Not to mention anything else, just take Chu State for example, Cheng Wuben operated the eastern border army for more than 20 years, which made the eastern border army only know Cheng Wuben. Later, Cheng Wuben was resigned, and the eastern border army was shocked and his combat effectiveness decreased a lot. And wasn't it the same with the Western Army at that time?"

"This is the truth." Qin Feng nodded: "I was in the Western Army at that time, so I only recognized Zuo Zheng. As for the emperor, it was too far away for me."

"Your Majesty, be careful of the small knowledge, this situation cannot occur in the Ming Dynasty." Ma Xiangnan said solemnly.

"I understand what Ma Gong means. But the generals of each battle camp cannot be changed casually. The combat style of each battle camp is closely related to the generals who lead them. The battle camp is the most basic combat unit of our Ming Dynasty. In order to avoid this situation, I plan to let these battle camps regularly adjust defenses in the next time, from east to west, or south to north, and prevent them from serving under a general. In this way, they can prevent the phenomenon of joining together. Second, the generals in charge of the army will also change their war zones after a certain period of time." Qin Fengdao.

"This is a solution." Ma Xiangnan smiled and said, "It seems that I'm worried in vain. Your Majesty has a good idea in his heart."

Qin Feng smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, now the three generals who lead the army are Wu Ling, who are cruel and cruel to the enemy. It is natural to use him to deal with the Qi people. Chen Zhihua is able to be extraordinary. He will resist Qin for many years with his father for many years. He is more familiar with the situation of Qin than everyone. These two people are capable enough to hold the position of general. But in my opinion, it is more important to be the position of general in the Central Theater Command. Wild Dogs are not capable enough? The Central Theater Command is the center of the country!" Huo Guang said.

Qin Feng smiled without saying a word, and Ma Xiangnan also laughed. After a while, Ma Xiangnan smiled and said to Huo Guang: "Brother Huo, if you don't become the Minister of War, it is the right choice to concentrate on martial arts."

"What does this have to do with me focusing on martial arts and not being an official?" Huo Guang was a little angry.

"Because you are really not suitable to be an official." Ma Xiangnan smiled and said, "Precisely because the Central Theater Command is the center of the country, the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty are also arranged in the Central Theater Command, the Miner's Camp, the Canglang Camp, the Ruijin Camp, and the Fire Death Camp. This is the backbone of our Ming Dynasty. Its status is equivalent to the Longxiang of Qi, the Fire Phoenix of Chu, and the Thunder of Qin. Therefore, the important thing about the general in this war zone is not ability, but loyalty, which can make His Majesty feel at ease to hand over the command of the troops to him. When it comes to the real battle, the actual command of this troops is actually in the hands of His Majesty."

Huo Guang was stunned for a while before he nodded with some realization.

Before he knew it, the carriage had been much more stable. Eunuch Le, who was on the side, saw the atmosphere in the car suddenly become a little subtle, and he made a sound to break the awkward situation.

"Your Majesty, you have already left Mengshan. You have been walking for a while and it is time for dinner. Why not take a break and let the soldiers make rice? Let the war horses take a break!"

"Okay, since I have left Mengshan, I also want to see our Ma Gong's achievements over the past period." Qin Feng nodded.

"Your Majesty, our Changyang County can withstand Your Majesty's inspection at any time." Ma Xiangnan smiled and opened the car door and jumped down as soon as possible.

The order was passed down, and the accompanying Fire Death Camp immediately began to camp. A moment ago, the scouts before and after had already received the order, and the central army began to arrange defense. A clearing on the road turned into a heavily defended camp in a blink of an eye.

Unlike ordinary troops who use local materials when camping, the horses of the suicide camp are surrounded by many carriages. The fences and other defensive equipment used in camping are all made of iron. The sledgehammer is wielded and completed in a very short time.

As a master of martial arts, Qin Feng actually did not need such defense, but this is the most basic combat capability of an army. The Fire Death Camp is not a pure royal guard. For the Ming Kingdom, which has insufficient troops, they are a backbone force ready to go to the battlefield at any time. The conventional tactical methods in these armies must be mastered for them.

The strong smell of fireworks came from the air. There were no green crops in the farmlands on both sides. The golden crop poles were spread flat in the ground. The farming people lit them, accompanied by the smoke, burning with raging flames. After the fire was extinguished, the land was covered with gray-black embers.

In some places, old farmers were carrying ploughing tools, plowing the land in the gasp of yellow cows and buffalo pits, burying the already cooled embers under the soil layer.

"Your Majesty, after these harvested crop poles are burned, they will be the best fertilizer for the next year. Now they are just shallow plowing, burying them under the soil and fermenting. When the spring is sown next year, another deep plowing will make the land fertile as usual." Ma Xiangnan introduced enthusiastically.

"I'm afraid it's not possible to rely on this alone?" Qin Feng said with interest.

"Of course, of course." Ma Xiangnan nodded repeatedly: "Why does Your Majesty know so deeply about these farming matters? This is just one of the means, and there are other means of fertilization. The most important thing is to fertilize the animal manure and the collected leaves."

Qin Feng smiled proudly and said, "I haven't eaten pork, have you seen pigs run? When I was stationed in Anyang City in the early years, I saw the people there fertilized farming. Anyang is also the most important grain-producing area of ​​Chu in the western border. Otherwise, why did Qin go there to rob!"

"When I finish my work this time, I will be truly entering the slack season. At that time, the old ministers will have to mobilize all the people of Changyang County to build houses." Ma Xiangnan said: "It is estimated that when winter comes, there will be a large number of Qin refugees from Kaiping. Without a house, it will not be able to survive in winter. We need to prepare houses and food so that these refugees can feel the warmth of our Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, and then live in peace and feel the peace of mind to create wealth for our Ming Dynasty."

"This is probably a considerable expense!" Qin Feng said.

"It's a lot. I borrowed one million taels of silver from Taiping Bank and another half a million taels of silver from Changlong." Ma Xiangnandao.

"It's so easy for Su Can to lend it to you?" Qin Feng smiled and said, "Changyang is a poor county. Isn't he afraid that you can't afford it?"

"Although Changyang is poor, it is also under the rule of the Ming Dynasty and his majesty's people." Ma Xiangnan said: "The old minister uses Changyang County's financial income in the next five years as a guarantee, plus the old minister's face, haha, Su Can is quite tactful and has a very low interest charge. As for Changlong, they came to him. Anyway, I am short of money, so someone takes the initiative to give you money, so he is naturally unwilling to be willing to."

"Changlong is interested in you using Changyang's financial tuition as a guarantee. This is a sure-making transaction. If you really can't afford it, they will go to the court to ask for it." Qin Feng smiled and said, "Changlong's head is very sensible."

"How could it not be able to pay it back?" Ma Xiangnan disdained, "Your Majesty, although Changyang does not focus on grain, Changyang fruits have now become the name of the Ming Dynasty. Fresh fruits and dried fruits are guaranteed quality. Fruit brewing is even more marketed throughout the Ming Dynasty. The cultivation of medicines has begun to show results. Cheng Pharmaceutical has become the medicine base of the Ming Dynasty. The annual financial income is stable. Now I am short of people and there are a lot of fields abandoned. There are few men, many women and children. It is hard to grow grain, and it is difficult for women and children to undertake a lot of work. When Changyang County has enough people, look at me. I don't have to buy food from outside. At that time, I want to see Fang Dazhi's face."

"It seems that you have a deep resentment from Dazhi!" Qin Feng laughed: "Isn't it just a road?"
