This small hall is where the office of the subordinate bureau of the Laizhou Capital Command and Envoys Department is located.
Laizhou Du Commandery Department is a newly built yamen. Many soldiers don't even know where the main entrance of the yamen is, but Zhao Bin is really familiar with it. He walks around as if he has acquaintances everywhere.
At this moment, Wang Erbai raised his bloody finger and asked, "Can I press it?"
Several officers looked at him and laughed, and some said to Zhao Bin: "Old Zhao, is the Alixi you are looking for reliable?"
Zhao Bin laughed a few times, then turned to Wang Erbai and shouted: "Change your fingers and press them with cinnabar!"
Wang Erbai obeyed the instructions honestly, then took the pen and drew a few pledges.
When the two of them came out one after another, a few more officers gathered nearby, and someone laughed and asked: "Boy, is your finger broken?"
Wang Erbai raised his finger to show the others that it was not broken, and then his arm was knocked off with a snap by Zhao Bin.
"Now that you have become my Alixi, you have to listen to me! Ignore them! After I come back, you have to practice swords and guns, marching, and formation. This kind of food is not so easy to eat!"
Wang Erbai nodded. He has a sincere temper and is not stupid. Back then in the fishing village, he knew that if the official said something good, he could only believe 30% out of 100. If it was bad, it was best to believe 30%.
Fifty percent is not bad either.
Sure enough, as soon as I pressed the fingerprints, I was going to suffer.
"I can use a knife and a stick," he said.
"Oh? Show it to me when you get back."
"In the past, when we went fishing at sea, we often encountered pirates and smugglers. They were all murderous without blinking an eye. We had to use knives and sticks to survive."
Zhao Bin was silent for a long time and nodded: "It's all the same."
"Dai Zheng, what did you say?"
"When I was in Changzhou, I often ran into horse thieves when I was out of town doing business, and they were all murderous without batting an eyelid. Once I stabbed a horse thief four or five times, and then I found out that the thief was a comrade in my army. I couldn't survive as a soldier.
After he went down, he secretly became a thief... In this world, who is not trying to make ends meet?"
Wang Erbai nodded, and after walking a few steps he asked, "Captain, what happened to that horse thief?"
Zhao Bin pointed to his nose: "Look at me, am I alive?"
Wang Erbai showed a serious expression, stretched out his hand to detect Zhao Bin's breath, and then his arm was slapped off by Zhao Bin.
"Since I am alive, the horse thief is naturally dead! At the moment of life and death, how can there be room for hesitation? With one strike, either you will die or the enemy will die!"
This is reasonable. Wang Erbai often heard it from veterans of the prison army.
He followed Zhao Bin and continued walking out.
And Zhao Bin nodded to several colleagues who passed by and continued to talk: "Oh, by the way, the military government will grant you farmland... I said, don't pick it, because you know that I am in the south of Yifeng Town.
The land? On the edge of the river ditch?"
"I know."
"The land was a little higher, so it was dry land, but it was very close to water. After a while, I freed up my hands and tried to find a way to get a water tanker and dig a trench, and I could easily irrigate hundreds of acres of fields.
My own fields, as well as my shady fields, can all be used. If you think it's okay, just choose the land next to my house. Just one waterwheel is enough, and it can be taken care of!"
Wang Erbai has been working in Yifeng Town for more than ten days. He is familiar with the surrounding terrain and knows that the situation is indeed as Zhao Bin said. That is good.
Can you actually believe 90% of the good words this official says?
Wang Erbai nodded and said: "Okay!"
Zhao Bin felt much happier all of a sudden. He patted Wang Erbai on the shoulder and continued: "You will also have a shelter. However, we soldiers in the fort are second-class. Regardless of the replenishment of ordnance or shelter,
The household rations have to be queued behind the first-class elite soldiers. Therefore, there is no hurry right now."
He looked at Wang Erbai's expression: "I said, there is an urgent matter at hand, and we really need to take care of it."
"Sir, tell me."
"Call the captain!"
"Well, Captain, please tell me."
"Your land further south is a sloping land. You don't need to worry about the watchtower on the top of the slope. The slope itself is just grass, which is perfect for grazing sheep. If you are willing, you can build a sheepfold there. I tell you
, Sheep are also very valuable, so they have to find a dry and sunny place with ventilation and warmth. By the way, there is also a fence. But the fence is easy to handle. I will draw a picture later. Let's build the sheepfold first?"
It turned out that I wanted to raise sheep, and it turned out that I was interested in my rammed earth slab building skills.
...it's not a big problem.
This official, oh no, the captain was very kind to me before. He even gave me a new bedding. He is a good man, and building a sheepfold for him is nothing.
Wang Erbai nodded heavily: "I have never raised sheep, but the sheepfold can be repaired."
"Okay! Okay!" Zhao Bin patted Wang Erbai heavily on the shoulder: "We want to build a big one, one that can raise a hundred or two hundred sheep!"
"I will do whatever the team leader says."
"Hahaha, boy, let's go back! When the sheep pen is finished, I will get two lambs. Next year and the year after that, we will have a group of sheep, and everyone will eat mutton during the holidays! Hahaha!"
Zhao Bin smiled triumphantly and led Wang Erbai outside.
After taking two steps, he sighed again: "Unfortunately, I still haven't figured out where the sheep come from."
At this moment, more than ten guards suddenly rushed in outside the Yamen.
Zhao Bin quickly retreated to the edge of the courtyard with Wang Erbai, and then saw a tall, dark and thin middle-aged man, lifting the corners of his robe, walking quickly out of the main hall to greet him.
Zhao Bin whispered: "The person who went out to greet me was Shi Poli, the commander of Laizhou City! It's probably a big shot coming, maybe my family..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice laughing: "I guess Brother Shi's busiest time has passed. I was out today and happened to pass by the door, so I wanted to come in and take a look. Brother Shi, if you have any difficulties with these trivial matters, you can go there at any time.
Find Brother Anmin, don’t give him face, don’t let him idle, haha.”
"I don't dare." The tall, thin middle-aged man bowed slightly, then stepped aside: "Commander Jiejie, please."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Brother Shi, please come too." A young man in a light robe with a golden sword hanging on his waist came in from the door.
Previously, with the rise of Yang An'er, the mountains and rivers in Shandong suddenly changed. In response to the call of Ding Haijun, a huge number of soldiers and civilians moved to Deng, Lai, and Ninghai prefectures, so the number of troops in Ding Haijun was quickly replenished.
But Guo Ning had no intention of following the example of the imperial army, which often brought out 100,000 or 200,000 armed beggars to go into battle. He had been suppressing the generals' idea of continuing to expand the army, but continued to select the best from the best to ensure the combat effectiveness of the elite troops.
By the end of February, Guo Ning had established three capital command divisions in Laizhou, Dengzhou and Ninghai Prefecture, integrating the original defense armies, prison armies, and even some relatively coordinated Meng'an conquering armies in the three states.
Responsible for local defense.
The number of troops under the command of the three capitals is about three thousand, and they are also equipped with corresponding shelters and farms. If they go to the battlefield, they are mainly used as the wings of the elite troops.
The commanders of the three capitals were Jing'an Min in Laizhou, Hao Duan in Ninghai Prefecture, and Ma Bao in Dengzhou. Guo Ning also sent Zhang Xin and Liu Cheng as Hao Duan and Ma Bao's assistants.
It is true that they are not as capable as Guo Ning's Hebei defeated army. It is natural for them to gradually retreat to the second line at this time.
The army that Guo Ning actually used to fight tough battles was still under the direct control of Ding Haijun Jiedu, and its size increased slightly to over 10,000. The main generals were still Luo Monk, Li Ting, Wang Shixian, Han Xuan, Qiu Huiluo and Guo Zhongyuan.
There are six people, but each department has been enriched by local heroes from Shandong such as Yan Ning, Gao Xin, Zhang Rong, etc., and the combat effectiveness will only be stronger.
In the Laizhou Capital Command and Envoy Department, not long after the new building was built, things were naturally hectic. All kinds of practical matters, including the selection of ordinary personnel, the transfer of military status, the application for issuance and maintenance of ordnance, and the storage and deployment of grain, fodder and baggage, all fell into this yamen.
Because the nominal official of Jing'an Civil Service was busy with affairs, many official duties were taken care of by the newly appointed deputy commander Shi Poli.
Shi Poli was a wealthy man in Ninghai Prefecture who was once favored by Yang An'er, and his status was similar to that of Xu Ruxian. But he was not a rich and powerful man like Xu Ruxian, but a man with limited hands and feet, who led the local people through the lean years. With his style
Speaking of it, he is not like Yang An'er, but like Liu Erzu who has lived in the mountains for a long time.
After Guo Ning convinced Yang An'er, he also took over Ninghai Prefecture. Shi Poli was also smart. He first sent one of his sons to Laizhou to check the wind direction. Seeing that the military government gradually took root and had the momentum to stand firm, he also left.
He arrived at the village where his family was guarding and arrived at Laizhou.
On the one hand, Guo Ning respected this kind of leader of the poor people, but on the other hand, he could not let him stay in the local area. So he simply gave him a decent official position, asked him to stay in Laizhou, and became the sixth-rank deputy commander of Laizhou.
Shi Poli naturally understood what Guo Ning meant and felt that the treatment given by Guo Ning was good.
His nominal boss, Jing Anmin, was a wealthy man in Zhuozhou back then, and he got along quite well with Shi Poli. So generally speaking, Shi Poli is very satisfied with his appointment these days, although he is far from being loyal to Guo Ning.
, at least accepted his sincerity.
Of course, Zhao Bin didn't know the twists and turns. He just stared at Guo Ning who was walking slowly in the courtyard, his face flushed.
"Look, boy, this is our Jieshuai! Guo Jieshuai fought with Hu Shahu at the Donghua Gate of Zhongdu that day..." Zhao Bin lowered his voice.
"sheep."
"What?"
Wang Erbai felt that since he was Zhao Bin's Alixi, he should plan for Zhao Bin, so he raised his finger and pointed at Guo Ning and said seriously: "He is a handsome man, he must be rich. Don't we have no sheep?"
You can ask him for two sheep, well, maybe four will be fine."
Zhao Bin stretched out his hand and knocked off Wang Erbai's arm: "What are you thinking about!"
The shouting was a little louder this time.
Guo Ning glanced in this direction and laughed: "Isn't this Zhao Bin?"
