Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Tiger Ben Army Heads North
If the method of legally attributing the reclaimed land to the names of the people who moved to the five northeastern counties gave them reassurance, then all the people who voluntarily moved to the five northeastern counties to thrive have been since the Fifty-Fourth Period of the Qin Dynasty.
Starting from the fourth year of the Second World War, taxes and labor were exempted for five years on top of the original exemption of all taxes and labor, and all seeds and farm tools were provided by the court. It can be said to be a naked inducement.
A notice from the Ministry of Household Affairs was sent to all counties in Guanzhong, and many people were asking about the relocation. After all, the five northeastern counties were all newly incorporated into the territory of Daqin. Just look at the Liaodong and Liaoxi counties to know what the situation is like there.
Therefore, people will naturally have considerations and worries in their hearts. But even so, people are still actively signing up to join the migration team.
Although the number of people still did not reach the first batch of relocated people required by Hu Hai, it has been growing. Although Hu Hai set a month for the cabinet, Hu Hai changed his mind after Xu Chuang captured Jizi North Korea, so
That’s how this article appeared today.
The expectations of all nations to come to court are powerful.
A large number of old Qin people gathered in front of the government offices of various counties in Guanzhong. Some of them may have been hesitant before, but more of them came with the intention of guarding the territory of Qin.
The officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the various county government offices immediately became busy.
Within ten days, all the 300,000 people who had moved to the five counties in the first batch had been recruited. This number exceeded the 200,000 people Hu Hai originally mentioned by a full 100,000. If Hu Hai hadn't been worried that too many old Qin people in Guanzhong left,
, can easily lead to an unstable foundation. I am afraid that just a few counties in Guanzhong will be able to move 500,000 immigrants to the country at once.
The people of Lao Qin are just role models, and the counties in the Central Plains and the counties in Jiangdong also need to be diluted. For the remaining 200,000 people, Hu Hai has ordered the Ministry of Household Affairs to only recruit people who are not from the Lao Qin people in various places.
On the first day of July, the first batch of 300,000 Guanzhong old Qin people who moved to the five counties will leave Guanzhong and go to the newly established five northeastern counties. Accompanying them are Lu Rong's 10,000 Huben troops who will be stationed in Gaoli County.
There were also a total of 80,000 Tigers and Guards troops escorting them all the way.
Of course, the Huben Army said they were escorts, but in fact they had their own tasks. After the 300,000 people who immigrated from Guanzhong arrived in Handan, the 200,000 soldiers of the Chu army who were building an iron field in Handan would be separated into 50,000 selected soldiers.
people followed the Huben army to the north. Only 150,000 people were left to build the largest iron refining yard in the world under the command of the craftsmen of the Hubu monkfang.
Most of the 50,000 Jiangdong soldiers who were selected for surrender were Jiangdong elites who did not have much to worry about. The Supervision Department of Zongzheng Mansion will create a separate register for these 50,000 people. From then on, they will disappear from all official documents of Da Qin. The only record
They only exist in the Supervision Department of Zongzheng Mansion and Longwei Mansion.
The Huben Army will separate from the 300,000 immigrants after escorting them to Inner Mongolia County. Troops from each county will come to support them, with 60,000 immigrants in each of the five counties.
After separation, the Huben Army will follow the 50,000 soldiers who surrendered from Jiangdong and continue northward into the depths of the grasslands of Inner Mongolia County. There are already people from the Longwei Mansion waiting for them.
The 100,000 Tiger Army was split up. Only 10,000 carefully selected elites remained in the Blue Sky Camp. These 10,000 people will be the instructors who will train the 460,000 county soldiers in the 46 counties.
In the end, Lantian Camp was selected by Hu Hai as the camp for ground training of county soldiers in Guanzhong.
The forty-six counties will successively produce forty-six fourth-grade commanders within half a year, and these forty-six commanders will eventually include a large number of former generals at all levels of the Huben Army from these ten thousand.
Born in the instructor team.
As the commander-in-chief of the Huben Army, Meng Tian is still on his way back to Xianyang. Most of the Huben troops in the Blue Sky Camp have already left the camp, and the 10,000 Huben troops remaining in the camp will soon be sent to the other six counties.
He served as instructors at all levels in the training camp. It can be imagined that when Meng Tian arrived in Xianyang, it was estimated that in addition to tens of thousands of county soldiers and recruits, the number of Huben troops in the Lantian camp would never exceed 2,000.
.
In other words, although Meng Tian is the commander-in-chief of the Huben Army, he is only a general in name only.
Neither the Cabinet nor the Ministry of War had anything to do with the deployment of the Huben Army. Of course, except for the Huben Army, for any deployment of more than 100 troops, not only did the Ministry of War have no power, but even the generals of each army also had no power.
The order for the Huben Army to go north was issued directly from the emperor's study. The Longwei Mansion guards beside the emperor directly sent the emperor's seal to Lantian Camp and handed it over to Cheng Lin and Long Tian, the two highest-ranking lieutenants of the Huben Army.
Cheng Lin was an old man in the Huben Army and one of the original 600,000 prisoners. He was originally a ranger from Shandong. He was arrested by the Tingwei Mansion for killing the magistrate of Wu'an County who raped civilian girls. According to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, Cheng Lin was an old man in the Huben Army.
In fact, Cheng Lin should have been chopped off long ago, but due to various reasons, the punishment was never handed down. Cheng Lin was detained in Xianyang Prison until Hu Hai released many prisoners and slaves in various prisons in Xianyang.

People's hearts are not so easy to bribe. At the beginning, Cheng Lin also hesitated whether he should be like those fellow prisoners who left the Bashang camp without hesitation after gaining freedom, and just left. By some strange combination of circumstances, he hesitated.
Cheng Lin stayed in the Bashang Camp and became a member of the 600,000 prisoner army, which he has done until now.
Cheng Lin, who is now the deputy general of the Huben Army, always feels countless joys in his heart whenever he thinks of the past, and of course is grateful to the current second emperor. If not at that time, he would have left like those prisoners who longed for freedom.
, then how could it be possible for him to be so glorious now? Without the trust of the second emperor, it would be impossible for him to become Lin Lin now, and there would also be no new life for 600,000 prisoners.
Needless to say, Long Tian. Except for Long Yu, Long Hong, Long Bing and Long Xue, the twelve personal guards originally given to Hu Hai by Hei Bingtai, the other eight either became generals who commanded the army, or
She has become a concubine in the harem.
Long Tian, Long Xuan, and Long Huang were sent to Zhang Han by Hu Hai when Zhang Han left Xianyang. Now Long Xuan and Long Huang stay in Nanhai and become captains of the Southern Navy. They follow Zhang Han.
Long Tian, who went all the way south to put down the rebellion, was promoted to the position of deputy general of the Huben Army. Long Di, Long Zhou, and Long Huang are still with Meng Tian now, and they are already captains based on military merit.
When the Huben army moved north, it was Cheng Lin and Long Tian who led the army.
The officials in the court are now increasingly unpredictable about Hu Hai's thoughts. If they want to reduce Meng Tian's military power, isn't it too obvious? (To be continued...)
