Chapter 253
The division of fields was done very slowly, regardless of men, women or children, even the dead were taken into account.

These people are crying and laughing, emotional and agitated.

In their perception, only by following the team leader He Jinzhao can we live a good life.

Even if these fields will belong to them next year, they can still be seen there.

This year, half of the output from this land will be used as military rations for He Jinchao, and the rest will be rations for those hard-working tenants.

Regarding these former tenants, He Jinzhao also informed that tomorrow they would be hired to cultivate the fields for the soldiers under the Governor.

Regarding this point, He Jinzhao is different from Daming, who is a white woman who votes for labor, but if you do the work for me, I will pay you.

Strengthen your word of mouth and reputation through various measures.

And many local women in Hequ are willing to marry He Jinzhao's hammer bandit soldiers.

Under the rule of He Jinchao, the town governor, there are only two kinds of household registrations: military households and civilian households.

Now that military households have become sweet pastries, many civilian households have come to inquire if they can join the team of the Zhenfu envoy and serve as soldiers.

In this regard, He Jinzhao did not blindly expand his team. If they all went to serve in the army, who would farm?

Regarding the more than 4000 people trapped in the camp, He Jinzhao made it clear that a maximum of 1000 people will be left behind, and the rest will be turned into field soldiers.

Soldiers in the field are treated the same as tenants, and the land tax is divided in half. If they are promoted to regular soldiers from the trapped camp, they will also get the land.

As a result, there were a lot of people who wanted to seek wealth and insurance, and in the end there were only 2000 people trapped in the camp.

Because they heard that He Jinzhao even gave land to the old troops who died in the battle, and found an adopted son so that he could have blood to eat.

The desire for land made this group of people unwilling to just be soldiers in the field.

As for the requirements of Zhengbing, He Jinzhao has formulated many detailed disciplines. Once fired, all will be confiscated.

Not only that, those local people who were dismissed by He Jinzhao from all kinds of low status were included in the propaganda and labor condolence group by He Jinzhao.

He Jinchao finally took root on one side of the Hequ.

With stable development, handicrafts and merchants have also moved here.

Liu Erhu let out a long sigh of relief after soaking in the bathhouse: "Captain, I've been training well in Taiyuan, why did you call me back?"

"You have a lot of fighting spirit. Consider the state of your soldiers and let them rest for a while. I want to test your training results."

Hearing this, Liu Erhu immediately became excited, there was a battle to be fought.

"Old party, how are the states and counties along the way doing?"

He Jinchao's southernmost control is Fenxi, Lingshi, Putongguan, Pingyao, Qixian, Taigu, Yuci, and Hequ.

"Captain, Ding Tang from Fenxi County is enough to satisfy the magistrate's official addiction. Without us, he would be a fart."

Dang Shousu laughed twice: "I didn't dare to pierce, and Bai Jiu'er from Lingshi County is also following the example of the captain, sending us food and cloth."

"Yeah." He Jinzhao leaned against the wall of the pool: "Officials and soldiers won't be entering Shanxi for a while, so we have to use a group of Shanxi merchants to help us with intelligence."

"Captain, these days, many Shanxi merchants have offered to help us, just asking for a flag."

"Field tax is only a small part, and our big part will be placed on commercial tax in the future."

He Jinzhao threw himself into the water: "From now on, we must not simply give some money to protect them."

"Well, these businessmen are all very rich."

"That's why we're going to win Biantouguan." He Jinzhao pointed to the map hanging on the side and said, "The last time the surname Zheng went to persuade him to surrender, but these people ignored him."

"Captain, I have been going to investigate these days."

He Zan didn't have many suitable spies in his hands, so he could only go to investigate by himself.

"There have been constructions in all dynasties over the years. Except for the two dynasties of Tianqi and Chongzhen, there are now two water gates at Piantouguan, embankments along the river, and a small town, forming a corner of each other.

There are urns at the three city gates in the east, west, and south. The height of the city is more than three feet (more than 10 meters), all of which are covered with bricks and stones.

During the Wanli period, it was built again on a large scale, from Laoniu Bay in the north to the Outer Great Wall, and in the south via Sigou Ferry to Shiti Pass in Hequ County.

The territory of Pianguan is more than 80 miles long.

This section of the Great Wall is mostly protected by the cliffs of the Yellow River, and most of the sections have no walls. They only build villages at the top of the cliff at the mouth of the ditch, and many watchtowers are built along the coast for defense.

Only from Sigou to Heidouyan, from Guanhekou to Jianciwan, stone city walls were built with red clay rammed, and the outer walls were wrapped with stones and bricks.

These stones were pulled from quarries in the border of Inner Mongolia.

Where the city wall is built, horse faces or enemy borders are built every thirty feet or so.

Its direction is all built on the cliffs and gullies of the Yellow River, which are easy to defend but difficult to attack. "

Northwest Shanxi has a very important military status in Daming.

The terrain here has both the Taihang Mountains and the Yellow River as a natural barrier.

The terrain is dangerous and solid, as long as a little artificial modification is done, the river can be used as a danger and the mountains can be used as obstacles.

The logistics of the army can be effectively guaranteed, enough to form an indestructible military force.

Shanxi Town is more commonly known as Sanguan Town, also known as Outer Sanguan.

Shanxi and Datong both guard Beijing's right line of defense, and Shanxi is in the rear of Datong.

It is the function of supporting and strengthening the defense force of Datong Town, and the function of blocking the enemy army in the second step, which is the trend of fighting corners.

The two towns besieged the enemy troops who had penetrated into the inner line of the Great Wall.

Hequ is located at the junction of Shaanxi, Shanxi and Mongolia provinces.

It faces Piantouguan in the east, Baode Prefecture in the south, Fugu County in Shaanxi Province and Zhungeer Banner in Mongolia in the west and north across the Yellow River.

He Jinzhao chose this position so that he could contact and trade with the Mongols.

They also put most of the task of defending against the Mongols on Daming.

Let Daming serve as the first line of defense against foreign nationals entering the customs for zero yuan purchases to congratulate Jinchao's forces.

Probably you were beaten at the front, and I grew up in the rear.

It can be described as harming others and benefiting oneself!

What He Zan was talking about was the entire Great Wall outside Shanxi Town, he paused and said, "Captain, it's not easy to overcome this hurdle."

"Biantouguan must be held in your hand." He Jinzhao pointed to the map and said, "Shuiquanying Fort and Red Gate Fort are two trading sites, and the distance between these two places is two miles."

"But it's not good for us to attack Bitouguan."

"Since Biantouguan is so easy to defend and difficult to attack, why did we beat him?" He Jinzhao pointed to the surrounding area of ​​Piantouguan:

"Hequ is next to Biantouguan, and I have already controlled its west side. We took the Red Gate Fort, and cut off its connection with Datong Town to the east.

Our soldiers encircle Piantou County, and Er Hu has trained for so long under the fortified city of Taiyuan, so it should come in handy. "

"Hahaha." Liu Erhu couldn't help standing up from the bathroom: "I knew the captain had already planned it."

"In this way, unless the guard at Piantouguan goes out and escapes to Mongolia." Dang Shousu was also quite excited.

He Zan also nodded in agreement.

In terms of strategy, his family's academic school is really not as flexible as He Jinzhao's wild way.
