The tears of Zhang Dashui, the Po Slave Army, were not in vain this time. Qu Guozheng brought him the first dividend of the Beijing Silver Mansion, a total of 30,000 gold coins. This was part of the cost of Zhang Ping'an selling jewelry and a small part of the profits of the silver mansion.

But just as Zhang Ping'an squatted on the chair and counted the gold votes happily, Qu Guozheng wanted to drag him to the Intelligence Department in the backyard of the General's Mansion. When he saw Qu Guozheng's attitude, Zhang Ping'an was so arrogant that he didn't want to go, and he knew that nothing was good. But with the support of Hao Yidao and his personal soldiers, he came to the Intelligence Department without touching the ground.

Qu Guozheng asked the confidential officer to bring the latest intelligence and handed it to Zhang Ping'an. Seeing that he couldn't escape, Shuai Zhang picked up the intelligence and read it one by one. The more he looked, the ugly his face became. What kind of birds are there in the Ming Dynasty? After the Datong border army planned to enter the winter, they found that the Outer Mongolian tribe in the Great Wall.

The sanitary napkin invented by Zhang Ping'an was actually targeted. The Ming merchants could not make it themselves, but it did not hinder their covetousness. A group of salt merchants in Yangzhou who made salt goods and made oily profits were attracted by Zhang Ping'an's shameless business. They conspired with the Canal Cao Gang to raise the shipping fee for sanitary napkins.

The Ming Dynasty's official army thought that they had found the soft persimmon, and they believed that the Mongols were crippled by the Possess Army. They wanted to send troops outside the border to find some face for their previous failures. With such a large military operation, he, the new grassland overlord, did not even know about it, and the result was failure.

The most important thing is that Yangzhou salt merchants and Caojun Caogang formed a joint alliance and wanted to seize food from the tiger's mouth, which was absolutely unbearable for Zhang Ping'an. Zhang Ping'an was shameless and benefited the families of the fallen soldiers of the Po Slave Army. These fat salt merchants wanted to share the profits, and it was a big profit.

A pack of sanitary napkins sold at a price of two cents of silver in Nanzhili, so they wanted to get one cent three cents. With the materials and the cost of transporting them to the pass, Zhang Ping'an would definitely have to lose money. Blocking people's wealth is like killing their parents, not to mention that these people blocked the wealth of the fallen soldiers of the Slave Army, so Zhang Ping'an would never give up.

So he took Qu Guozheng to the combat room of the General Staff and asked the young staff to open a secret military map. This is a map of the Ming Dynasty, marking the mountains and rivers of Zhili in the north and south of the Ming Dynasty. Many blank blocks in the middle made Zhang Ping'an feel bleeding. The blank block shows that many of the staff members of the Breaking Slave Army surveyed and mapped here were missing here.

Since Zhang Ping'an established the Yingtian Prefecture Xuanwei Envoy Office in Nanjing, he has sent 30 staff surveying and mapping teams. He brought a chariot with a record distance to explore the detailed terrain of the Ming Dynasty. According to statistics from the General Staff Department, six staff teams that were dressed in business have disappeared. Zhao Hucheng bribed the news from the Jinyiwei inside, and the Jinyiwei had no idea about the actions of the Possess Army Staff Group.

The mystery of the disappearance has always been Zhang Ping'an's heart. He called Gu Xin and handed Gu Xin the latest information reported by Qu Guozheng to Gu Xin, and then looked at the map quietly. After about an hour, he reluctantly took out the gold tickets that had not yet been heated from his arms, took out three and put them back in his arms. He returned the remaining gold tickets to Qu Guozheng.

"I will take 1,500 gold coins of gold coins, and you will keep the other gold coins for the time being. I have to carefully understand my ideas recently. Gu Xin sent an order to the civil yamen. I have been considering major issues recently. If there is no major issue, don't disturb me. The order was sent by Tian Peng to take the mountain troops to naturalize and gather, and Liu Qingshan and Zuo Erya led their troops to train in Dingnu City."

Before the autumn festival, Zhang Ping'an visited the newly built Ping'an City. He admired Zhang Huzhou, a talent recommended by Lu Xiangsheng. When he learned that Zhang Huzhou was from Chengdu, he felt even more intimate because Zhang Ping'an grew up in Chongqing later generations, and the words they talked in Sichuan dialect.

"Your brother can do it, it's a good job! Look at your brother who is busy, just say whatever you want!"

After more than half a year of recuperation, Zhang Huzhou's face improved a lot, and his dark and thin face gradually became rosy. He suddenly heard the local accent from Zhang Dashuai's mouth, and his eyes were suddenly wet.

"Ah! I didn't expect that Dashuai was also from Sichuan! Dashuai's Sichuan East dialect is very honest."

The two chatted with tears and Lu Xiangsheng was stunned by the accompaniment of Chen Zheng. Chen Zheng was a little better. He often heard a few swearing words popping out of Zhang Ping'an from time to time, and he also heard Zhang Ping'an curse in Fengyang Mandarin.

Lu Xiangsheng felt strange. Zhang Dashuai was really a genius in language. He could speak Mongolian language and Sichuan dialect very well. At the same time, he was extremely pleased that Zhang Huzhou was valued by Zhang Ping'an in the same year. Zhang Dashuai was unquestionable and gave Zhang Huzhou great power.

Zhang Huzhou never wanted to go back to the Ming Dynasty at this time. First, the Donglin Party members of the Ming Dynasty and Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party fought bloody, and he could only die if he returned. Second, Zhang Dashen gave him rights, so he could only gain power in the Ming Dynasty. This made Zhang Huzhou, who had a great desire for power, enjoy the pleasure brought by this right.

Zhang Huzhou believed that the official positions established by the Xuanwei envoy of the Ponucheng were very interesting. They were neither the Ming official system nor the grassland Mongolian official system, but were mixed with the Han and Tang official systems. Zhang Huzhou was appointed as the guard of the Ping'an City by the Ponucheng Xuanwei envoy, and ruled and rescued more than 700,000 people in the Ming Dynasty. Except for the military he could not intervene, he could make decisions on everything in civil matters.

The Civil Affairs Office of Ponucheng is also very let go of Ping'ancheng. All the money and materials paid will be replenished after the inspection team reviews. No one is shirking the blame, and no one has raised any problems.

Zhang Huzhou also found that the baby Zhang Dashuai was a very special person. He was extremely indignant of the Mongolian army's behavior of destroying forests and building camps. Before executing the prisoners of war, the Mongolian prisoners were asked to transport all the wood for building camps to Ping'an City as a construction of people's housing, and even the scraps were left behind.

Because the Slave-Poison Army was in an offensive position against Lin Dankhan's troops at this time, the first thing that was built in Ping'an City was the housing of the people and military camps. The construction of the housing of the people was the responsibility of the Jurchen slaves and Mongolian prisoners of war. The responsibility of the people was to reclaim the land and grow food to feed their families.

It is precisely the precedent of successful land reclamation in Ponucheng that officials sent by the Civil Affairs Office of Ponucheng led 5,000 scholars selected from the rescue of the people. According to the experience of immigration to Ponucheng, they led the people to reclaim more than 7 million acres of fertile land around Hulun Lake and Beier Lake.

Zhang Huzhou predicts that by the beginning of autumn, the self-sufficiency of food in Ping'an City will be no problem, and there will be no less than four million stones of surplus grain. He also found that the bloodthirsty Zhang Dashen was very concerned about the survival of the people. In addition to the daily rations distributed by the Possess City, each household also issued ten silver coins to settle the family silver so that the people could purchase essential daily necessities.

In business, Zhang Dashuai made strong support without leaving any room for business. Shanxi people had a tradition of doing business, so Zhang Dashuai issued low-interest loans to the people who wanted to do business. The merchants were allowed to do business freely in areas controlled by the Po Nu Army, and the main taxes in Ping'an City came from commercial taxes.

...........

Zhang Ping'an's inspection in Ping'an City was actually a cover. Except for the two major intelligence systems of the General Staff and the Po Slave Army, no one else knew what Zhang Dashen was really meant.

When Zhang Dashuai brought Lu Xiangsheng back to Ponu City, Lu Xiangsheng realized a hint of conspiracy. Because Zhang Dashuai left most of the personal barracks with the strongest combat power of the Ponu Army and the mysterious mountain troops in Guihua City. This gave Lu Xiangsheng a bad premonition, and he believed that Zhang Dashuai was going to cause trouble for the Ming Dynasty again.

Lu Xiangsheng, who was extremely responsible for the safety of the Ming Dynasty, blocked Zhang Ping'an in the General Staff. He wanted to ask Mr. Zhang about his next plan. However, Zhang Ping'an enthusiastically brought Lu Xiangsheng to the hall of the war room, allowing Chief of Staff Gu Xin to open the map of the combat situation against Lin Dankhan, Mongolia, and gave Lu Xiangsheng a tactical class.

"Jiandou! I know what you are thinking. Are you thinking about what the naturalized mountain troops are doing?"

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head for a while and said in his heart: This Grandmaster Zhang is too evil and has a clear grasp of people's hearts, not under the Prime Minister Sun Chengzong.

"Yes, the commander-in-chief. I just want to ask the mountain troops whether they want to attack the Ming Dynasty?" Lu Xiangsheng's answer was very direct, not obscuring his point of view at all. Zhang Ping'an didn't mind at all. He held the teaching stick in his hand and pointed at the map and the direction of the forest.

"What is the goal worth my attack on the Ming Dynasty? What I am interested in is only making money. Jiandou, the Mongolian Yuan imperial capital "Helin" is my main goal. This time the mountain troops will train troops, cross the desert west of Naturalization, and find a road to the west of "Helin". I am ready to wipe out Lin Danhan's main force, so I cannot let him retreat west easily. If Lin Danhan deals with our army in the area he is familiar with, I really dare not stay here for a long time. If my Possess Army stays here for a long time and the Jurchens are causing trouble for me, what should I do?"

Zhang Ping'an's strategic conjecture made Lu Xiangsheng fall into deep thought. Although the Pou Slave Army expanded its survival area for more than 10,000 miles after the war and strengthened its population strength by rescuing Ming slaves, the strategic situation of the Pou Slave Army being surrounded on three sides still did not change. The Jurchens suffered the biggest losses this time were their Ming traitor Han army flag troops, as well as the Mongolian tribes in the Mobei who brought their families to participate in the robbery.

However, the core army of the Jurchens was the only Yellow Banner that was severely damaged, and the other troops were basically intact. The Mongolian Korqin tribes and the five Mongolian Khalkha tribes who were friends with the Jurchens did not bring their tribe women, children, and young people to come, and they escaped in time, and did not suffer much loss. On the contrary, these Mongolian tribes were still receiving the men of the Mongolian tribe in northern Mobei, and recovered their losses in the Guangning battle, thus becoming stronger.

The entire nation is a Jurchen, and the soldiers of his clan can fight for more than 300,000 soldiers. In addition to the Mongolian war soldiers, the Jurchens can organize 600,000 to 700,000 combat troops in this direction. This does not include the Ming traitor Han army flag. It can be expected that in this battle, the Ming traitor Han army flag troops were quite tenacious. Now the Jurchens are in charge of Huang Taiji. As Huang Taiji is smart, they will definitely reorganize the Han army flag troops.

In the case of Lin Dankhan in Mongolia, Lin Dankhan's troops lost only 5,000 people in this battle. The 200,000 Junggar tribe he integrated was only captured by 30,000 males (author's note: The Mongols calculate the population, and generally only count as men). According to the confession of the scouts arresting Lin Dankhan's tribe, Lin Dankhan gathered the fleeing Mongolians, and he also had 600,000 males.

If it is true as Mr. Zhang said, the main force of Lin Dankhan was wiped out in the next battle, the Slave-Destroying Army must place a powerful defensive force in the direction of the Jurchens. However, in Lu Xiangsheng's mind, the Jurchens were the biggest external trouble of the Ming Dynasty. He must let Zhang Ping'an adjust his strategic thinking and put the elimination of the Jurchens first. (To be continued)
