Zhu Yixi didn’t know that a big scene of “robbing the rich and giving to the poor” had begun in Shaanxi.
Even if he knew it, he would just sigh: "The limitations of the peasant class."
Because, he has already arrived at Dashan Pass.
"The building boat crosses Guazhou in the snowy night, and the iron horse disperses in the strong autumn wind. It is well-deserved!"
After boarding the tower, Zhu Yixi looked down and couldn't help but sigh.
The Jialing River passes through the city, with mountains on both sides. Dashanguan is like a small slit in the middle of a funnel or a short column in the middle of a dumbbell.
Whether heading north or south, Dashan Pass is an insurmountable barrier.
"How dangerous it is." Chen Yongfu couldn't help but sigh: "Henan and Guanzhong are almost opposites. They have a smooth road and no danger to defend. Only in troubled times does Guanzhong become more important!"
"You can't stay here long."
Zhao Shu, who joined the army, was holding a feather fan and looked a bit like Zhuge Liang. He hurriedly suggested:
"If nothing goes wrong, the intruders will definitely send troops again, and we must evacuate as soon as possible."
"Of course I know."
Zhu Yixi smiled and said in a deep voice: "Although we have to retreat into Hanzhong, we have to defend Dasan Pass. I am thinking about who will guard it."
Chen Yongfu and Zhao Shu were silent.
In terms of personnel appointments, they are new members and have no say.
The cold wind is biting, the river is surging, and the howling mountain wind is constantly lingering in the ears, making people shiver.
Looking at the turbulent Jialing River, Zhu Yixi fell into thinking.
Li Jizu was not smart enough, Chen Yongfu didn't trust him enough, Li Jingwu was a cavalryman, and the only one he could use was Zhu Meng.
You must be obedient and have some brains. The key is that your surname is Zhu, so you cannot surrender to the intruders.
"Pack it up!" Zhu Yixi raised his head and said to the two of them: "The wind is biting, we have no choice but to go to Hanzhong to spend the winter."
"As you command!"
On the plank road, there is a steady stream of vehicles passing slowly. If you are not careful, the car will be crashed and people will be killed.
Zhu Yixi looked at the scene of bringing the old and supporting the young, somewhat fascinated.
"Sect Master, are you looking for me?" Zhu Meng rushed over and asked as soon as he saw Zhu Yixi standing as tall as a green pine.
"Da Tou, are you sure you can hold Da San Pass?"
Zhu Yixi asked directly.
"This?" Zhu Meng was stunned and said hesitantly: "Dasan Pass is as dangerous as Tong Pass. Moreover, it is almost winter and it is even more difficult to attack. As long as hundreds of thousands of people don't come, I can hold it."
"very good."
Zhu Yixi smiled, patted his shoulder and said: "I will give you three thousand people to guard until the spring of next year."
"Don't worry, when I go to Hanzhong, whether it's winter clothes, food, or soldiers, I will continue to replenish it for you."
"And you, as long as you do one thing, never leave the city and guard Dashan Pass."
"Sect Master, don't worry." Zhu Meng's eyes were bloodshot and he patted his chest and said, "If I fail to break up the relationship, you can twist off my head and use it as a chamber pot."
"If you have this intention, it will happen."
After patting her twice gently, Zhu Yixi smiled and said easily: "???Sure enough, only you are worthy of my trust, and no one else is worthy of my trust."
After saying that, he left with light steps, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
Watching the sect leader leave, Zhu Menghu said with tears in his eyes: "Sect Master, you believe in me so much, how can I let you down?"
From the leadership of the clan to the kindness of knowing someone, how can we not let people go all out?
At noon, nearly nine thousand soldiers ate horse meat soup again, and the aroma of meat spread throughout Sanguan City.
Whether it is the musketry battalion, the infantry, the defeated troops, or the garrison of the scattered pass, everyone has a share.
Zhu Yixi held a spoon and stood next to the broth bucket. Every time someone came to get rice, he poured hot broth on it.
With a smile on his face he said:
"Delicious!"
"Not enough!"
"Your stomach needs to be full."
The soldiers' eyes filled with tears. Have they ever seen such an approachable general?
In the military household era, officers were hereditary, and those who served as soldiers were slaves.
When recruiting soldiers after Jiajing, their wages and rations were deducted. If they were able to distribute food and wages on time, they would be praised to heaven.
When her arm became sore, Zhu Yixi still stood aside and comforted her with warm words, even though she asked someone to ladle the soup instead.
Holding the steamed buns and drinking the broth, for a while the whole place could only be heard by the soldiers gulping and squeaking.
Zhu Yixi was not idle either. He was eating the same steamed buns while inspecting everyone, and his approachable image was established instantly.
Only then did everyone realize: It turns out that our leader is so young.
In the afternoon, Zhu Yixi summoned the generals and held the first overall meeting.
The military generals are roughly divided into three parts, the general department, the logistics department, and the staff department.
Zhu Yixi looked at everyone and said softly: "It has been a long journey along the way, and it has only been repaired until now. Now the army is extremely chaotic. The soldiers don't know the generals, and the generals don't know the soldiers. It's time to start rectifying it."
"Then I don't know how to rectify it?" Xiong Yingjie, the guard of Dashan Gate, couldn't help but ask.
However, as soon as he finished asking, he saw everyone's eyes focused on him. He was startled and then lowered his head angrily.
Obviously, he did not expect that although Zhu Yixi was young, she had considerable prestige.
Zhu Yixi glanced sideways at him and said to himself: "Today, the army has a total of 9,500 people. If we add the craftsman camp and the general medical office, the scale will exceed 10,000 people. We will not mention these two for now."
"In my opinion, there are two thousand musketry battalions and one thousand artillery pieces, which I will personally command."
"Chen Yongfu!"
"I'm here to serve you!" Chen Yongfu stood up hurriedly, raised his hands and said respectfully, without any airs of a general soldier.
"Set up a new barracks, train new recruits, and supplement the organizational structure. You will be the chief instructor."
"Yes!" Chen Yongfu was a little disappointed, but he still agreed.
Sure enough, in just a short period of time, we still couldn't win trust, and we had to keep working hard.
"Zhu Meng, you are the guard general of Dashan Pass. I will mobilize 2,000 mine soldiers to work with you, plus the guards to make up a total of 3,000. Without my military order, you must not leave the city."
"The general will obey his orders."
Zhu Meng said in a deep voice.
"Set up another cavalry camp, Li Jingwu, and you will be its commander-in-chief."
Li Jingwu was overjoyed and patted his chest and said: "Guerrilla, don't worry, I will definitely train a good rider."
Zhu Yixi nodded, and then continued: "The remaining three defeated troops, about three thousand people, must re-enter the new barracks for training. After that, they will be led by Li Jizu, with Xiong Yingjie as deputy."
"The name is Sanbiangying."
"Yes!" Li Jizu beamed, and Xiong Yingjie forced a smile.
Transferring Xiong Yingjie from Dashan Pass and teaming up with Li Jizu, and the two of them command the three-sided camp together, can form an effective restriction. This is the best method at present.
"In addition, a staff department was established, and staff officers Zhao Shu and Zhang Daoyuan praised the painting."
"The Department of Transport and Transport will be established again. Starting today, all wages will be controlled and distributed by it, and will no longer go through the hands of the generals."
"Zhu Mou, you are the chief of the Transport Department."
"Thank you so much, Master." Zhu Mou was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed down.
After hearing these words, the faces of the generals changed greatly.
Now, how can I make extra money and live on empty wages?
Xiong Yingjie was dumbfounded. He was about to retort, but when he met Zhu Yixi's murderous gaze, he immediately lost his temper.
I'm a knifeman, but I'm a fish and meat, so I can't afford to offend you, right?
The Musketeers Camp, the Three Side Camp, and the Dashan Pass were all in his hands. How could anyone dare to step forward?
Naturally, the others lost their temper and acquiesced.
Seeing this, Zhu Yixi nodded, smiled with satisfaction, and breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, the chaotic military system was eliminated and all the armies were completely under his control.
