Chapter 165: Clouds and Smoke Eyes Break Jinshan Road (3)
At the southern foot of Hanghailing (Hangai Mountain), on the banks of the Haraholin River, where the former main pasture of the Kled tribe and the royal tent of King Kled now stands, a walled city now stands.
It has a radius of ten miles, and its foundations are built with stones from Hanghailing mixed with cement transported thousands of miles from the south. The city walls are made of clay plywood. There are warehouses, shops, hospitals, and craftsmen in the city.
Workshops. There are also three factories in the west of the city, a wool combing factory, a woolen cloth factory and a mutton canning factory.
In the east of the city, facing the three factories, there is also a Shimen Pagoda - the Great Guangming Pagoda.
In the most prominent position in the north of the city is a majestic building, which is the Lingbei Economic Envoy Office and the Xuanwu Banner Chengxuan Office. These two yamen are the soul of this city called Hening.
It's just that the city is still a rough prototype and it will take two or three years to be fully completed.
In the signing room of the Yamen, Sun Moli, the Lingbei Economic and Lue Envoy Si Lu Shidu, who joined the army and was the Xuanwu Banner Propaganda Envoy, sat behind the bookcase and worked.
After spending more than half a year in Mobei, he had darkened a bit, but looked stronger. His originally thin cheeks had become fleshy, and had a blood-red color unique to the plateau.
There were several thick stacks of information on the bookcase, almost burying him in it.
In the military and political institutions of the Song Dynasty in Mobei, the person in charge of the army was the Department of Economic and Strategic Envoys, and the person in charge was the Department of Chengxuan. Chang Sun Moli served as the chief officer of the Department of Chengxuan and the third-in-command of the Department of Economic and Strategic Envoys.
During the busy period of the war, Liu Fa, the Lingbei Economic and Strategic Envoy and the Protector of Xuanwu Banner, Gao Shixuan, the Deputy Economic and Strategic Envoy, and Hu Luxiong, the Deputy Protector of Xuanwu Banner, led the expedition, and all military and political affairs were handed over to Changsun Moli.
Although the two yamen have a large number of staff and left-hand officials, they have helped to classify military and political affairs and handle them in an orderly manner. Only major matters that need to be decided by Changsun Moli are presented to him.
However, the eldest grandson, Moli, was cautious by nature. When he was with Zhao Si, he only helped make suggestions and counseled on military and political affairs. He would never let others say that he was taking charge of his own power.
Now that Zhao Si has entrusted Mobei to him, he has to go through everything down to the smallest detail.
Just as Changsun Moli was immersed in a pile of papers processing documents, Zhao Long walked in.
After the capture of Xingqing City, Zhao Long, Wang Shunchen, and Gao Yongnian escorted a large amount of supplies and rushed to Hening before the winter snow came. He was appointed as the transport envoy of the Lingbei Economic Envoy, responsible for the logistics of the Song army in Mobei.
Wang Shunchen and Gao Yongnian were appointed as Lingbei Economic and Strategic Envoys and Left and Right Military Envoys.
"Brother Zijian is here." Changsun Moli raised his head, saw Zhao Long, stood up, and greeted politely.
"Mr. Xuanming, I didn't disturb you, did I?" Zhao Long asked.
The eldest grandson, Moli, smiled calmly, "I happen to have a sore neck and a sore wrist. Brother Zijian came just in time. I can take the opportunity to rest for a while. Please sit down quickly. Someone, come and serve tea to Zhao Caoshuai."
The two sat down on the seats next to them. Zhao Long kindly advised: "Mr.
Changsun Moli cupped his hands to express his gratitude, and then sighed: "The officials entrusted Mobei to us. Now Liu Shuai, Deputy Commander Gao, and Deputy Commander Hu Lu are leading the expedition. The safety of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians depends on me."
You have to be careful when it comes to your body. Brother Zijian, aren't you too busy?"
Zhao Long waved his hand, "My little trivial matters are nothing?"
"A little more trivial things?" Changsun Moli smiled. We are all people who work hard. I don't know about the "trivial things" you do.
"You supervised the construction of the city walls and various buildings in Hening City. The required stones, rammed earth, and cement were all prepared by you. You established the medical center and craftsman's workshop in the city, and even the
The three factories are nominally owned by the Zhongyuan Trading Company, but in fact they were not entrusted to you to help build them. In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians eating, drinking and sleeping...Brother Zijian, these trivial matters are not simple."
Zhao Long laughed and said, "Mr. Xuanming, let's not expose each other. We are all loyal to the officials and the Song Dynasty."
After laughing, Zhao Long continued to ask: "Mr. Xuanming, everything is ready for the second batch of 30,000 households in Mobei to be relocated to Zhuque Banner. When do you think they will set off?"
According to the regulations previously set, the large number of herdsmen captured in Mobei were divided into three, six, and nine grades. The first to be gathered were the horse slaves and low-level herdsmen who were highly skilled in riding.
The Song Dynasty gave them an excellent opportunity to change their humble status and become masters. Therefore, their loyalty and initiative are unquestionable.
They need to herd animals from an early age, not to mention their riding skills. When herding animals, they need to fight against wild wolves, foxes, horse thieves and bandits, and their courage and archery skills are all developed.
They became the main force of the Xuanwu Cavalry, and after their meritorious service, they would become the first household, the first household, or even the first household. In just a few months, many people like Yan Wanshi emerged.
However, some of them may be transferred to Zhuque Banner in the future.
Many heads and leaders of the original tribes, like the Hehuangfan tribe, moved their families to the Central Plains, leaving only one or two sons who became the main household, Jiahu and Baihu of the Xuanwu Banner, continuing the family tradition.
glory.
"One Sword Dominates"
Most herders will become deputy households of Xuanwu Banner.
The rest are the losers, the tribes of the six tribes of Kled who are related to Huerza Husi and others, and the women and children of the four tribes of the Tatar tribes of Nawur, Alchi, Buluhui, and Teret, together with them.
Cattle, sheep, and horses were all distributed to the officers and soldiers of the Suzaku Banner who had made meritorious service, and became their appendages.
A large number of officers and soldiers of the Suzaku Cavalry were directly transferred to the Xuanwu Banner in Mobei, becoming the skeleton supporting the entire flag. If the Suzaku Banner lacked people, it would naturally be necessary to supplement some of them.
Last year, when Zhao Si led his troops to the south, 10,000 households in Mobei were converted into Zhuque Banner deputy households and assistant households (one level lower than deputy households, and only after three generations can they be eligible to join the army and fight as deputy households, changing the fate of the family).
, driving cattle and sheep, setting up an ox cart and dragging a tent, escorted by three thousand Suzaku Banner cavalry who were taking turns to rest, they got up and headed for the Xihai, Qingtang's Suzaku Banner Ranch.
They first spent the winter in Juyanhai, and now they should be crossing the Qilian Mountains and entering the West Sea.
In the spring of this year, we will organize the second batch of herdsmen to move to Zhuque Banner.
From a legal point of view, these deputy households and assistant households are the blood rewards of the Zhuque Banner Army's meritorious officers and are their appendages. Although they are not the previous horse slaves, they still enjoy certain rights, and their persons and property are protected by the law, but they are considered
Those "tenants" of the main household.
While grazing their own cattle and sheep, they need to graze cattle, sheep and horses for the regular households for free, as well as harvest wool and milk horses...
Changsun Moli nodded clearly. This matter is related to the interests of the officers and soldiers of the Suzaku Banner, so it is natural to pay attention to it. Why do people come all the way to Mobei to risk their lives? Loyalty to the emperor and serving the country is just a propaganda and agitation slogan. What really makes these officers and soldiers
What makes them brave and invincible is these tangible trophies.
He pondered for a while and said: "The current situation in Mobei is a bit delicate. We may need to wait."
Zhao Long understood the meaning of his words, and his shrewd eyes opened slightly, "Last autumn, the officials led their troops back to the south, and the subsequent Mierqi offensive we launched did not achieve a complete victory. Those guys on the grassland,
He started to get excited." This chapter has been completed!
