As noon approaches, dark clouds cover the sun, the north wind whistles, and it is as cold as a knife. A long line of troops shuttles between the hills and slowly moves eastward.

Dozens of riders left the team and headed to a mound surrounded by dry fields to the north. There was a village beside the mound, with chickens crowing and dogs barking, filled with a strong pastoral atmosphere.

The beacon towers on the top of the mound and the flags waving in the wind gave the village a little murderous aura.

There were dozens of horses tied around the open space next to the village. In the village, Li Li was patrolling the chicken coop.

The layout of the chicken house here is almost exactly the same as the chicken house in Baishi Village back then. The artificially raised earthworms allow roosters, hens and chicks to grow up healthily.

A chicken farmer specially trained, and the whole family of four was taking care of the chicken coop. Looking at the busy figures of these people, Li Li remembered the situation of raising chickens at home back then.

The little flag Molanzi spoke Huainan dialect and introduced the situation in the "zha" to the guests who visited.

"Zha" is a settlement "unit" in Xuzhou Military Station, that is, a camp surrounded by Muzha. The number of troops and people living there is about forty households.

According to the five-person household, the number of settled people in the "Zha" is about 200, which is actually a settlement of half-army and half-people.

"Small Flag" is the chief officer of "Zhai". Together with the assistant officials, they must be responsible for organizing soldiers and civilians farming, and also organize soldiers and civilians to conduct basic military training.

And maintain public order and resist thieves.

Mo Ranzi briefly introduced the situation in the "zha", including the area of ​​reclaimed wasteland, the harvest this year, the situation of garrison troops and the people.

As for postal information, public security situation in surrounding areas, and some difficulties that may be faced in continuing to renovate land.

Mo Ranzi mentioned: "There are wolves in this place, in groups of three or five, and everyone goes to the ground to work, and they are very vulnerable to attacks. The previous month, ten people were attacked in our gate. Although they saved their lives, they were seriously injured."

Li Li held a quill and made notes on the small notebook. When he heard this, he asked, "There are so many wolves? Does that mean the nearby forests are dense and there are many wild animals?"

Mo Lanzi nodded: "Well, there are many forests around. At that time, if the army had not sent people to cut down the woods and set up the fences, we would not have settled here with only two hundred of us."

"Not only here, but also a few nearby gates, were harassed by wolves, and they were very annoyed."

"I heard they mentioned it, this is a problem." Li Li flipped through the notebook and said, "After the New Year, I asked someone to organize a hunting team to fight wolves in this area so that you can farm with peace of mind."

Mo Lanzi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and asked again: "June, can we have a variety of wheat? I feel uneasy in growing rapeseed and cannot hand over more food."

"Your worries are right. If I were to myself, I would feel at ease that all the land that I had finally cultivated was planted with food."

Li Li put away the notebook and patted the veteran on the shoulder: "But, we must look at it longer-term. The newly reclaimed land in this area is all raw land, with low grain yields, and even the harvest cannot be maintained by oneself."

"Don't worry about the food you have saved up by opening up the land."

"So, you can exchange a variety of rapeseed first, so you can exchange food. Don't worry, there is a lot of food in Hanshan. If you transport it here, you will deduct consumption, which is enough for the food of about 200 people in the gate."

"After three or five years, the situation has been opened up, the grain planting area has been increased, and self-sufficient, and then more farmland has been reclaimed. We need to plant wheat and rapeseed."

"You must remember that you are not fighting alone, but you are scattered on the vast land and are about to plunge into the soil."

"I want to plant towering trees in Xuzhou. You are the roots of the tree. Countless roots must overcome difficulties and plunge into the soil. The deeper the better."

"You are not supporting yourself. If you don't have enough food, you will definitely be transported from Hanshan. Your responsibility is to reclaim wasteland, occupy land, and firmly control this land."

"No matter whether it is a wild beast, a bandit, a bandit, or a strong sect, it cannot drive you away from this land. It is the greatest contribution that you have taken root here."

"Just like a war, I ask you to guard the city gate, and you must guard the city gate."

Mo Lanzi followed Li Li to fight a war and admired the ability of "Li Sanlang". Now, after Li Li's instructions, he patted his chest with several other comrades to promise:

"Don't worry, we are stationed here, what beasts and robbers, don't even think about occupying the territory!"

"Okay!" Li Li smiled, "Now that the war has come to an end, I will arrange more soldiers and the people will farm. Your place will not be deserted."

......

Outside the gate, Zu Wei, who was "inspecting on the site" in this area, looked at the fields in front of him, and looked at the soldiers and horses marching eastward in the distance, and was filled with emotion.

The four troops of Qi army were almost wiped out, and King Fufeng, Zhu Hunyuan was killed. He did not expect that the war would end the war in this way.

Unexpectedly, Li Li did not defend first and then attack, but chose to take the initiative to fight and win the field.

Absolute confidence, absolute strength, absolute victory.

Zu Qi sighed in his heart. He believed that from now on, this will be the impression of Li Li by well-informed people from all over the world.

A brave and good at fighting and almost undefeated general of Fang Zhen, but because of his cold background, he could not be close to the children of the gentry. Once he was eager to seek talent, he would definitely become an excellent target for poor families to join.

Zu Feng felt glad for his choice, not only because of the great victory in this battle, but also because of what he saw and heard in the military gate area during this period.

Military garrisons have existed since ancient times, but there is nothing strange about them, but the military garrisons implemented in Xuzhou are different.

Zu Yi studied it carefully for a while and figured out the ideas of Li Li's military camp.

With soldiers as the backbone, the people (mainly landless refugees) were led to open up land and farming together. The team was organized according to the army's organization and was a garrison system.

But the organization at all levels is a bit strange.

Li Li's military garrison system is called "Guizhou System". Military ranks and commanding forces at all levels are as follows:

The guard commander (manages 5,000 households in total) > 1,120 households in total) > 100 households in total) > 1120 households in total) > 112 people in total) > 112 people in total) > 112 people in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 households in total) > 1,000 household

This is a sequence of garrison troops (guard troops). Each soldier, with family members, is equivalent to one household, and then each garrison troops manages three garrison households.

Therefore, the settlements of military farms (including military people) are at the following levels:

Guard (mainly the commander of the official and the commander of the guard)＞fort (mainly the official and the households)＞shou (mainly the official and the households)＞fort (mainly the official and the general flag)＞forz (mainly the official and the small flag).

There is a fixed number of households in each settlement.

Guard (manages five forts, 20,000 households)＞fort (manages ten forts, 4,000 households)＞fort (manages two forts, 400 households)＞fort (manages five forts, 200 households)＞fort (manages forts).

This scale is obviously not a mere need for farming. Zu Feng thought at first that this was a military system that combines farming and warfare.

The troops stationed (including the people stationed) farm for busy farming and slack farming practice. When necessary, these troops stationed troops will fight with the army.

Just like the current government system implemented by the Western thieves (Western Wei, now Zhou State).

However, Li Li tried the military garrison system (Guardian system) in Xuzhou. The military garrison (Guardian army) did not participate in the war, but maintained local public order.

The chief officials and their subordinates at all levels of the army assume the responsibilities of officials at all levels in the military farming areas. The garrison is not a war soldier, but more like a civil servant and Bai Zhi who maintains public order.

Therefore, this is not a military system, but a military system (made by the military camp) with the administrative region as its "bone".

Guards, forts, subways, tiles, and trests are not only military settlements at all levels, but also local administrative regions at all levels, and may correspond to counties, counties, townships, villages, and villages.

This is an alternative administrative region independent of the existing prefectures, counties, counties (and townships and villages below the county). Zu Yu probably figured out its purpose:

After the military camp opened up, the public government had stable taxes and labor, as well as absolute control capabilities at the township and the village level. The next step was to attack the owners of the existing land under their control.

The land was counted, the household registration was checked, and the powerful households were entrusted to the land rent, the households were transferred, and labor service was collected.

Those who fail to pay will bear the consequences at their own risk.

No one dares to say such words casually, but Li Li must have dared, because Li Li has absolute force, and the just-concluded war proves this.

Therefore, Zu Qi knew that Li Li had absolute confidence and said this in Xuzhou's territory and further implemented the system of garrison (the system of garrison).

Not only that, some newly "recovered" places were guarded by generals under Li Li, and military camps were also implemented there.

Li Li wanted to "take root" in the local government with the system of garrison, and after gaining a foothold, he would compete with local tyrants for land, population, and resources.

The soldiers in the system of garrison are actually "maintaining public order" and weak soldiers in the city, and the soldiers in the field who are determined to win. They are solved through the recruitment system.

Use recruiting troops to resist foreign enemies, like the canopy of a big tree, sheltering the people under the tree from wind and rain.

Use troops to control the place. Just like the roots of a big tree, go deep into the ground, absorbing a steady stream of nutrients, and letting the big tree grow vigorously.

The implementation of the military system and the military organizes refugees to farm, which can not only allow the soldiers who have made meritorious resources to share the land (the wasteland to be reclaimed), but also resettle landless refugees and gather people, which can kill multiple kills in one fell swoop.

During this period, Zu Yi's "squatting" inspected the garrison system and found that this system was well implemented and the structure was perfect.

If it can be implemented normally, it will take less than a few years...

However, before the military farming situation is opened, we must continue to invest enough money and food to ensure that countless "roots" are planted into the soil and survive.

Where did so much money come from?

Zu Yi thought of this and looked at the "gate" behind him that looked like a village.

One "zha", forty households and more than two hundred people, relying on the reclaimed wasteland, they cannot grow much food, so they have to rely on the supply of Hanshan.

To support a "gate", the consumption is not low. How to support countless "gate"?

He didn't know how Li Li wanted to raise money and grain, but he knew that in the northeast of Xuzhou, the two sides of the Taiwan Straits were transported, and in the first areas where farming farms were first, countless "battles" had survived.

After this battle, everyone can see how sharp the minions of Xuzhou tiger are. I think no one will dare to tease this tiger in a short time.

So...How do we create so much money and food to make countless roots work hard to penetrate into the soil and survive?
