In the military camp, Yang Qing was watching the troops drill while talking to Zhang Yi beside him.

Since the defeat of Li Qiucheng, the morale of the county soldiers, who had mostly new soldiers, was suddenly lifted. After being tempered by the fire of war, the immature spirit of these soldiers gradually dissipated, and the spirit of a strong army gradually grew. .

"Boqi, have the troops been fully replenished?" Yang Qing asked casually.

Although the official army won a great victory, there were still some losses, so Yang Qing still recruited a group of young men to supplement the county's army.

Zhang Ni smiled and replied: "That's it. The official army defeated the Yi soldiers this time and established prestige among the people. Therefore, there are many young men to be recruited. It took a lot of effort for us to select."

"Haha, I can only train elite troops at this moment, but it is good to have enough troops. Maybe I will have to expand the army in the future." Yang Qing also smiled and said: "Why, you, a lieutenant general, are still afraid of your subordinates? There are too many people and horses?”

Zhang Ni said: "Your Majesty is joking, but you are not like that."

In order to reward Zhang Ni and others for their military merits, Yang Qing promoted Zhang Ni's department to the rank of Commander-in-Chief of the County. Lei Xiong, Liu Yin, and Shen Da served as military commanders, and Lu Shun served as deputy commander. Of course, these four still served concurrently. The original song is long.

Feng Chong was promoted to commander of the cavalry. Although Dong Xuan and Xu Hui did not go into battle, they still contributed to the defense of the city. Their contributions have been recorded in the merit book and will be rewarded in the future.

As for the meritorious soldiers at the grassroots level, they also received promotions and rewards. For a time, everyone in the army was very happy, gearing up, and fighting spirit.

As for the civil servants who ensured the supply of grain and grass, Yang Qing also made arrangements according to their merits.

Qixiu, the Prime Minister of Anshang County, accompanied the army and pacified the people and made great contributions. Later, he was impartial and fair in returning the people's property and handled the matter appropriately. Therefore, Yang Qing recommended him to Chengdu as the magistrate of Xindao County.

The county magistrate Lu Shen was in charge of the transportation of grain and grass, and he also made great achievements. Yang Qing asked him to take over the post of Tiancao of the county.

Yang Xi's official position also changed. Huo Jian, the traitor, had been found, and his position as Bing Cao Tu was naturally vacant. Yang Qing asked Yang Xi to take over the post of Bing Cao Tu as well.

As for other officials, although they performed their duties loyally, their merits were not significant after all. No one else was promoted this time, but Yang Qing still gathered all the officials to commend them and appease them.

"By the way, how is Feng Chong's cavalry song now?" Yang Qing asked again.

The cavalry is a force that he relies on. Yang Qing has always been very concerned about it. Today he came to the military camp to inspect the troops. He wanted to see the situation of cavalry. Unexpectedly, Feng Chong led his cavalry to practice outside the city in the morning. Not returned.

Zhang Ni said: "Master Huifu, we have selected and recruited many times, and finally managed to gather five hundred people who are good at riding. Ever since Feng Quchang completed the compilation of riding songs, he has been training and practicing carefully every day, and he has never slacked off."

Yang Qing nodded and said: "I have always been assured of Feng Chong's ability in riding and shooting, but the cavalry is not as good as other arms. The quality of the horses has a significant impact on the cavalry's combat effectiveness. Although Nanzhong's horses are short, they have strong endurance and are extremely powerful. Are you good at crossing mountains and ridges, do you have enough fodder for these war horses?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Fu, if there is any shortage of materials in the army, there will be no shortage of cavalry troops." Zhang Ni replied firmly.

"That way, I feel relieved."

With these five hundred cavalry, we can finally ride against Gaoding. According to detailed investigation, Gaoding's cavalry is only more than a thousand, and now it has been reduced by one-third. If we encounter this thief again, we will send cavalry to fight.

, the official cavalry can also deal with it.

Moreover, Yang Qing also knew the ideas for making bilateral iron stirrups and high-bridge saddles. Once these two items were produced, the combat effectiveness of his own cavalry would be qualitatively improved.

However, Yang Qing will not present these two killer weapons to the world now. Good steel must be used on the blade. These sharp weapons must be prepared for Cao Wei. The rebels in Nanzhong are not qualified to enjoy this.

treatment.

After walking around the school grounds for two more times, Yang Qing went to various barracks. When he arrived at Liu Yin's camp, Yang Qing saw him from a distance testing his martial arts skills with a tall man using a wooden spear. He circled around him.

The soldiers watched.

Strange to say, there were people fighting against the soldiers around them, but no one cheered or laughed and made friends. Everyone looked attentive and holding their breath.

Yang Qing felt strange and was about to ask Zhang Yi next to him. When he got closer, he realized that the two were not competing in martial arts, but Liu Yin was instructing everyone on their marksmanship by trading blows with the man.

Yang Qing did not disturb Liu Yin's teaching, but stood in the outer circle with Zhang Yi and watched. He knew Liu Yin's martial arts very well, especially his marksmanship. These people must be good candidates for martial arts training if Liu Yin personally teaches them.

Yang Qing can be considered a martial arts practitioner now, so he can naturally see that although the shooting skills of the man he is fighting against are still quite immature, he has a plan for blocking, blocking and interception. He must be the best among everyone present.

Liu Yin then took him and gave him careful guidance.

"Bo Qi, the man facing off against Xiuran seems to have good foundation. Is he also a recruit this year?" Yang Qing lowered his voice and asked about the man's background.

Zhang Ni laughed in a low voice and said: "So that the Lord of the Prefecture will know that this person's name is Wu An. Because he works in the family, everyone usually calls him Wu Erlang. This person is a new soldier recruited from the refugees. He is tall and strong.

Good material for martial arts training.”

"When entering the camp, low-level officers are selected. This person wins several games in a row and is appointed as commander. Therefore, this person is quite famous in the army."

"Xiuran also values ​​this person very much and often trains him in martial arts. The last time he fought with Li Qiucheng, Wu Erlang was also there. He took the lead and made many achievements. The day before yesterday, when I talked about my merits, Wu An was promoted to the team leader because of his merits.

Already."

After hearing this, Yang Qing praised: "Yes, this person is indeed a good young talent. You and Xiuran should pay more attention to him."

"Don't worry, Mr. Fu, Xiuran is very precious to this boy and takes him very seriously." Zhang Ni said with a chuckle.

Yang Qing nodded: "That's good, let's go, I won't disturb Xiuran's training of soldiers."

When Wu An returned home, it had been dark for a long time, and the oil lamp at home was particularly bright in the night. Seeing him come back, his wife Pan quickly went to the kitchen to prepare meals, while Wu An was teasing his two children on the bedside.

He looked at Mrs. Pan's busy back beside the stove and felt that this was probably the joy of life.

After the war, in order to show the government's care for the soldiers, Yang Qing ordered the sergeants who had accommodation outside the military camp to take turns to return home to rest.

Sure enough, as soon as this move came out, Yang Qing's reputation for loving soldiers like a son became even more famous, and the gratitude and love for him among the soldiers and people in the city became even stronger.

After taking a sip of rice wine, Wu An felt extremely happy in his chest. Suddenly he remembered something, got up and walked to the wooden post in front of the bed, took off the cloth bag hanging on it, and threw it on the table with a snap.

Pan and her two children didn't know what he meant, and they all looked at him with puzzled faces. Wu An smiled and said, "You guys are watching what I am doing. You will know after you open it and take a look."

Mrs. Pan rolled her eyes at him when she heard this, opened the bag and took a look, and couldn't help but exclaimed. It turned out to be a pile of copper coins. The two children were also extremely surprised to see so much money, and couldn't help but reach out and play with it.

After fleeing to Anshang, Pan's money had been exhausted. Later, one of her and Wu'an entered a textile workshop and the other entered a military camp. After their livelihood was settled, their wages were mostly based on grains and rice, and they had little money. Hairy.
