Xu Shiyang feels so wronged now.

When he was always taking responsibility, he always took the heaviest one. When he divided the benefits, he was so generous. All the forts in Rizhao County, Juzhou and Rizhao County have received help from Xu Shiyang in the past year. If he shrank at such a critical moment, Xu Shiyang would have been a fool for a year.

He doesn't want to be a fool, so this year the Tartars robbed, and no one will send reinforcements, and he will fight after he repels the Tartars!

No one, including Xu Mujiang, will be spared!

"I will go back to prepare for the war today." Xu Shiyang looked up at the sky, and then said to his younger brother: "It's boring to stay in this coward's nest."

"Then I'll leave too!" Xu Shiliu seemed to admire Xu Shiyang a little. Children of his age liked to be rebellious the most. Xu Shiyang made a big fuss in the ancestral hall, and his image was extremely majestic in his eyes.

You dare not kill the Tartars, I dare!

‘I dare too!’

Xu Shiliu made up her mind secretly.

"Don't be anxious first." Xu Shiyang said: "It's not appropriate for me to go back today, but you have to go back and talk to our father. If you want to fight, we still need his support."

"Third brother, if I go back, my dad might ask me to go to Jiangnan as soon as possible!"

"Then you go, what's the matter?"

"Who did I go and kill the Tartars side by side with you?" Xu Shiliu said anxiously: "You just said you needed me to send troops to each family!"

"The Tartars will come after the autumn harvest. You can take advantage of this time to go to Jiangnan. Not only will we win, but we will also have to get enough benefits after winning!"

Xu Shiyang explained:

"I put all the gold and silver goods on the ship. You can go to Jiangnan to exchange for some urgently needed materials for the war. Then, take your father's famous post and promote the war here in the Jiangnan scholar circle. Don't be afraid of bragging. Just say that last time we killed a thousand Tartars, this time the Tartars will come to tens of thousands of cavalry to take revenge!"

"Those war-goers may be able to give us more benefits. Even if they don't give it, it doesn't matter. Come back quickly with food. If you have time, you will soon enter the typhoon season. It's not safe to go to sea now. If I didn't want to leave, I should go this time..."

"No, no, no! I'll go, I'll go!" Xu Shiliu quickly agreed: "I just like danger. If it's not dangerous, I won't go!"

Xu Shiyang smiled with relief.

After all, my family is not all pig teammates.

"Go and prepare. You have to think about how to maximize our interests when you arrive in Jiangnan and how to spread our achievements in persisting in the War of Resistance to the world."

...

Xu Shiyang did not stay in the village for too long, and it was useless to stay there. He still had a lot of work to do.

That night, Xu Shiyang returned to Shiwutun and immediately held an internal management meeting of the system.

At the meeting, Xu Shiyang asked Dingyuan Camp to improve the intensity and frequency of training, and strive to train the recruits this time to the quality of veterans during the bandit suppression before the autumn harvest.

At the same time, craftsmen who did not have to participate in the war and the elderly, weak, women and children in the fort also had to learn necessary knowledge of defending the city, such as fire prevention, wall prevention, how to take care of the wounded, and help transport materials to the earthen wall.

Craftsmen, especially blacksmiths, carpenters and gunpowder workshops related to military industry, must increase their output, and existing raw materials must be turned into useful war materials before autumn harvest.

The artillery cast by Tang Long using the lost wax method must be completed before the autumn harvest and accepted. The gunpowder from the house and foreign houses will be suspended now and will make every effort to ensure their own needs first.

Work in the farmland is also important. Except for those with tasks and full-time Dingyuan Camp soldiers, others, from the 60-year-old men to the 6-year-old children, they all have to help in the farmland.

Xu Shiyang bought a lot of food last time, but after Dingyuan Camp increased its training volume, the consumption would definitely increase. If Xu Shiliu did not deliver the newly purchased food and grass in time before the Tatars Fortress, 15 Villages could only rely on this year's harvest support.

Only when you have food in your hands can you not panic in your heart.

It was not until this time that Xu Shiyang suddenly realized that the current situation in Shiwutun was actually very unhealthy.

After more than a year of development, the bandits captured by refugees and the total population of the three forts in Shiwutun is about 4,000, of which 1,500 are Zhuang and Banding.

It sounds like a lot, but there are 500 soldiers in the industry, with a proportion of standing troops as high as 12.5%!

What is the concept of this ratio? Another plane, the semi-industrial Japanese during World War II, had a mobilization rate of 12.71%!

Moreover, the Japanese played the devil's tactic of dismantling the demons at the last moment. After all, it was a way to cut one's body to fill the hunger. Xu Shiyang's Dingyuan Camp was a regular army!

If it were not for the continued provision of additional supplies through seizure, there would be no possibility of Dingyuan Camp existing at all.

As the number of new troops continues to expand, it will not take long for ordinary wars, such as bandit suppression, annexation of other forts, the spoils obtained from the new troops will be relatively small in material assistance to the new troops.

The solution to the problem is very simple, either to restore the proportion of soldiers and civilians to normal levels. Or to gain more extra wealth by launching larger-scale wars or trade.

Of course, there is another way - to obtain foreign aid.

'After this war, if I can achieve good results, I should also go to Jiangnan.' Xu ​​Shiyang thought to himself: 'I have a boat now. If I can take a cargo in Jiangnan and transport it to Fusang or Goryeo for sale, the annual income of a boat will be enough to support a camp.'

‘If the pro-war factions in Jiangnan are willing to give me some assistance, it will be better. They should be eager to win news of victory as their own political capital. We should be able to do our best to get what we need.’

As for the population...

As soon as the war ended, Xu Shiyang planned to find a reason to cleanse the internal forces of the Xu family. If possible, he would use the remaining power of defeating the Tartars and turn the six alliances into a real whole.

...

Liaodong, Liaoyang

The official capital of the Jurchen Great Jin Kingdom was actually the Huining Prefecture in Shangjing (the geographical location is equivalent to that of the later generations of Harbin), but the weather was cold and the fields were weak, so it became a political center when the Jurchens were still mainly fishing and hunting.

Now that the Khitan has been destroyed and occupied the prosperous Liaozhong Plain for more than ten years, it is purely to ask for trouble if the Khan lives in Shangjing.

Therefore, although the capital has not been officially moved, the political center of the Jin Dynasty has been moved to Liaoyang, including the Great Khan and all the Jurchen Boji Lie, and everyone has settled their homes here.

At this time, in the Daqing Hall built in the Southern Dynasty, imitating the Great Zhou Palace, a large area of ​​bald heads with only one rat tail left by money were kneeling.

Now that the Jurchen Khan is becoming more and more authoritative, the Bojilie Conference, which was originally responsible for assisting in state affairs, has now become an optional decoration.

In order to prevent Bo Jilie from being so embarrassed in front of the zodiac, these top Jurchen nobles still have the right to sit in the Daqing Hall, but other small and medium-sized nobles, such as Meng'an, must kneel on the ground and listen to the orders.

In the north of the hall, the great khan of the Jin Kingdom Wanyan Sheng ordered loudly:
Chapter completed!
