For example, this farmer's wife remembered that her current man was not the original man, but she was better-looking. At that time, the superiors ordered that each household should live separately, completely ending the situation of mixed living in shacks, but now she is a stronger man, and two days after she came back,
A man had a fight, and she became the woman she is now.
While the two women were talking, they had already arrived at the manure pit. This manure pit was outside the village. They were concentrated here not only for cleanliness, but also for the convenience of accumulating manure for the farmland.
There is a public toilet on one side of the pit, and on the other side is the place where the toilet is emptied. There is a sign on the side of the pit that reads, "Female not entering the pit will be fined five times." The two of them carefully stood on the edge of the pit and emptied the toilet.
Zhou Xiaoya ran more than ten steps away and shook the wheel to pull up a bucket of water. While shaking the wheel, the old farmer said to Zhou Xiaoya: "This wheel is still very useful. I heard that it came from our salt farm a few years ago."
That ice woman who looks like a fairy taught people how to make it. It’s called orange peel. It’s really convenient for lifting water from the well.”
After the water came up, the two of them talked and cleaned the toilet. The farmer's wife stretched her waist and looked up at the fields outside the village. Wheat seeds and beans were planted, and they were waiting for water to sprout.
Thinking of this, I looked at the two small waterwheels by the river next to the village.
There has been very little rain since the beginning of spring. Now we mainly rely on dug wells for watering. The well mouth is too small, and it is quite tiring to use oranges to carry water. Fortunately, the beautiful and ridiculous ice woman also taught everyone to build two water by the river.
A small waterwheel can divert water to farmland for irrigation.

After Wang Junlin inspected the salt field for seven days, he summoned all the important confidants under his command, including Nie Xiaoyu, Liu Ziming, Shan Xiongxin, Du Ruhui, Xiang Xiang, Shen Guoer, Zhang Tiangang, Yuchi Jingde, Lu Han, Guan Xiaotong, Xu Xiaohu, Lu Shijun, etc.
, gathered at the salt farm to hold a meeting on the next step in the development of the army, and the two little guys Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba were also present.
The reason why we chose to hold the meeting in the salt field instead of the county town was naturally to avoid Xue Li, the general of Yingyang Prefecture, and others, as well as Zhao Zhanpeng, the Tongshou who could not be regarded as his confidants.
At present, Wang Junlin's army can be divided into four parts.
Shan Xiongxin has a thousand soldiers under his command. According to Wang Junlin's request, all of them will be trained into cavalry in the next step. Because the soldiers are in the open, one thousand is already the limit, so we must strive for excellence, both in terms of personal force and combat experience.
For truly elite soldiers, when they go to the battlefield in the future, these thousand cavalrymen will not only be equal to ten, but they will at least be comparable to the ordinary three thousand cavalrymen.
The second part of the troops is Yuchi Jingde's 3,000 troops. These people were originally all bandits under Yuchi Jingde's command, but when they met Captain Chi Jingde, a strong general with the talent of a general, how could they be ordinary bandits? Now there are
With a supply of sophisticated armor and weapons, they don't have to worry about being surrounded and suppressed by the government, and they don't have to worry about food and drink, so they can concentrate on training their troops. According to Wang Junlin's plan, among these three thousand people, one thousand are cavalry and two thousand are infantry, and they are infantry who are proficient in mountain warfare.
The third part of the army is the 3,000 saltmen in the salt field, led by Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong. Because of the hidden nature of the salt field and the protection of the saltmen, it is technically 3,000 people, but in fact it will eventually be 6,000 people.
, these people have more than 500 elite soldiers who originally came from Youzhou as the backbone, and Nie Xiaoyu personally led them for a month or two. Combined with thousands of years of military training and battle experience, they have developed a unique training method for them.
.
Although it is composed of salt soldiers and salt slaves who have never been on the battlefield before, it is actually the army that Wang Junlin is most looking forward to. According to the plan, there will be two thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry, and of course there will be some subdivisions.
Weapon types, such as archers, sword and shield men, spearmen, etc.
The fourth part of the troops is naturally the navy on Snake Island, commanded by Lu Shijun. Currently, Nie Xiaoyu is personally watching the training. There are currently more than 3,000 officers and soldiers who "defected" from the Fanyang County Navy. Wang Junlin sent them to Fanyang County.
Nie Xiaoyu's family members were also sent to the island. In addition, Nie Xiaoyu absorbed some of the more than 2,000 rebel soldiers of the original Lu family who were sent to the island, making up a fleet of 4,000. At present, there are only ten warships. The next step is to build a shipyard for half a year.
They will continue to build warships for them. According to the plan, there will be four large ships of five thousand stone, ten millet of three thousand stone, and fifty warships ranging from one thousand stone to two thousand stone.
Because in more than three years, the Sui Dynasty will go to war with Goguryeo, so the navy is Wang Junlin's most important army. According to Wang Junlin's plan, the number of troops will eventually reach 10,000. Of course, Snake Island can accommodate
Since there were not so many people, Wang Junlin urged Nie Xiaoyu to train the navy as soon as possible. He wanted to send 3,000 of the 4,000 navy to the two islands given to him by Yuan Taizuo, the Prime Minister of Goguryeo, and control them first.
Let’s talk about it in hand.
But this matter can no longer be delayed. Jin Yibei and Mao Haitao sent by Yuan Taizuo come to Wang Junlin every day to cry. After all, Jin Yibei also helped deal with Dou Shihai before, and Yuan Taizuo also completed Wang Junlin's mission.
All the demands are made, no matter what, it is time to return his son Yeon Gaesowun to him.
By this calculation, Wang Junlin's army in Fanyang County already had 10,000 troops before he knew it. If this plan continues, he will have 15,000 troops in at most half a year.
And this does not include the 8,000 county soldiers in eight counties. The county soldiers who served as captains were all Wang Junlin's people. They also trained the county soldiers fiercely according to Wang Junlin's orders, although they were not as good as the government soldiers and Nie Xiaoyu from the salt field.
The army was trained by personally designing training methods, but according to Wang Junlin's assumption, the combat power of these 8,000 county soldiers could not be worse than Yuchi Jingde's 3,000 soldiers and horses who were born bandits.
In addition, according to Wang Junlin's request, all the men among the 20,000 farmers in the salt field must also train in their spare time and prepare like reserve members of later generations. When it comes to war, whether it is to fight against Goguryeo or to deal with
In various civil wars in the country, these people can be replenished to the regular army that is consumed at any time, and they can also be organized at any time. With a little training, they can form an army with considerable combat effectiveness.
In eight other counties, Wang Junlin ordered each county to organize rotation training of civilian bravery in villages and towns, and to set up additional rural camps. Like the salt fields, certain training was conducted during slack periods.
For Wang Junlin's troops, in addition to the government troops being paid by Fanyang County's finance, and the salt workers' salary from the salt field being partially subsidized, he has to pay for the rest out of his own pocket, and all the generals and generals in these armies understand this.
Therefore, the men and horses in the three places of Salt Farm, Lu's Back Mountain and Snake Island actually belong to Wang Junlin's private soldiers.
The total number of these people is now 10,000, and eventually there will be no less than 15,000. It is necessary to maintain the expenditure of 15,000 troops, including 4,000 cavalry, 4,000 navy, military pay and food and grass.
On the other hand, war horses, armor, weapons, and warships all cost money.
