Zhu Dachang's arrival made Shi Xiaofan full of confidence.

He finally had soldiers in his hands.

In fact, it was already a violation. Although Shi Xiaofan had the power to transfer troops, he could not mobilize the troops stationed in Caizhou without the authorization of the Privy Council.

However, if he doesn't violate the rules, he will not be Shi Xiaofan.

The governor of Caizhou originally did not dare to send troops, but in order to flatter Shi Xiaofan, he transferred 500 elite cavalry, who followed Zhu Dachang all the way to Ping'an County.

In Ping'an County Government, Shi Xiaofan sat upright in the lobby and met them.

"You are from Caizhou, what's your name?"

A general in charge stood up respectfully and bowed: "The last general, Sun Erlang, has seen the prince-consort."

Shi Xiaofan nodded: "Okay, from now on, you will follow me to help prevent Ping'an County."

"I will obey the order."

In this way, Shi Xiaofan took over Ping'an County in full.

Ping'an County has only two gates, north and south, and was originally guarded by the Ping'an Army of Dongfang Hongtai.

As soon as the Caizhou army arrived, Shi Xiaofan replaced them with defense in full.

First of all, the two gates of Ping'an County were replaced by Sun Erlang's people.

Then, Shi Xiaofan issued another military order. Without military order, the Ping'an army was not allowed to leave the military camp without permission.

In other words, this Ping An Army has been tightened.

At this time, the Caizhou army fully connected with the county town.

Dongfang Hongtai has completely lost the capital to resist.

Soon, Shi Xiaofan ordered all the military doctors garrisoned in Ping'an to be transferred to the county government for assessment.

In name, it is an assessment, but in fact it is to investigate the disappearance of Dongfang Yanggang.

This case is very strange, most of the time it was done by Dongfang Hongtai.

As long as they arrested all the military doctors of Ping'an Army and asked them, they would definitely confess.

This time, Shi Xiaofan did not go to Ping'an Military Camp, but sent his little brother Lai Fu and Caizhou Army Sun Erlang.

The Caizhou Army is a regular army, and once there is a war, it will be the main force of the Song army.

Unlike the Ping'an Army, which is not as powerful as the local troops, there are actually many similar Ping'an Army in the Song Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, it is the army responsible for local public security.

Don’t expect them to fight, at most, you can maintain local public order.

Generally, this kind of local security army has no rights.

They are under the jurisdiction of local officials, such as Ping'an County, which is an individual case.

As soon as Sun Erlang arrived at Ping'an Military Camp, Dongfang Hongtai and his subordinates immediately became respectful.

When they learned that the prince-in-law had transferred troops from Caizhou, they were all stunned and immediately became honest.

Now, no one is dissatisfied with them, and no one dares to complain.

In the eyes of the regular army, a mob like Ping'an Army is not worthy of carrying shoes for them.

It can be seen from the equipment alone that the officers and soldiers brought by Sun Erlang are all energetic and heroic.

They have all the weapons and clothing, and they are unified and prohibited.

Let’s look at the scattered Ping An Army. They were not standing or sitting, and the soldiers were scattered and disorderly.

In contrast, the right judgment is made.

Even in front of these regular troops, these Ping An army became honestly ashamed of themselves.

Sun Erlang is a official worker: "Dongfang Hongtai, call all the military doctors in your military camp here."

Dongfang Hongtai dared not say anything, so he first handed over the military list, and then said respectfully: "Return to General Sun, this is the list of doctors among the last generals.

There were 19 people in total.”

Sun Erlang glanced at the list of flowers, then snorted, ignoring it.

Dongfang Hongtai didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly ordered his subordinates: "Why don't you go quickly!"

One of his subordinates hesitated: "General Dongfang, there are two military doctors, Fan Tian and Dixi, and he, they went back to their hometown to work hard for farming.

There are only twelve in the camp.”

This is really embarrassing. On the roster, there are nineteen military doctors in the Ping'an Army.

As a result, there were only twelve people who remained in the military camp.

Two guys actually went home to farm during the busy farming period.

"There are five more guys!"

Dongfang Hongtai was furious.

"Then, those five expelled people, some, and three of them were deserters a few years ago."

The subordinate replied nervously.

Dongfang Hongtai immediately became embarrassed. There were actually none of these five at all. There were only fourteen military doctors who stayed in Ping'an Military Camp.

The reason why there were nineteen reports was that five of them were paid by Dongfang Hongtai.

There are many troops stationed everywhere in the country.

Fortunately, it was not serious to get empty salary in the Song Dynasty.

Because the system of officials at all levels is relatively perfect, if they are impeached, they will easily lose their official positions.

There were nineteen military doctors, and Dongfang Hongtai had five empty salaries, but it was not a lot.

After all, such third-rate local military spending is very small.

Even the imperial guards in the capital have examples of empty salaries.

Even the Divine Guard Army led by Shi Xiaofan also had generals who were vacant.

As long as you don’t do it too much, Shi Xiaofan is too lazy to pursue it.

For example, among the 100 big-headed soldiers, there are three or five people who are empty-handed, so it is hard for you to investigate this kind of thing in detail.

If the water is clear, there will be no fish. It may not be a good thing to check too strictly.

But if you have a serious salary, for example, more than ten of the 100 people will be given a salary.

This is serious. Once wars start one after another, it is easy to delay major events.

Such things will never be tolerated by the court and will generally be dealt with seriously.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the army had already reached a point of being crazy.

In the Song Dynasty, it was relatively light.

For example, Dongfang Hongtai had vacancies from five military doctors, but it was not much.

"This, General Sun.

The last general and the last general camp are only these twelve people, look..." Fortunately, Sun Erlang did not make things difficult for him: "Call these twelve people over and take them away for the assessment.

This general wants to see if they really understand medical skills, but they are just a scattered person."

When Dongfang Hongtai heard Sun Erlang say this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered his subordinates: "You guys, why don't you go quickly!"

These twelve military doctors all have strange shapes.

Either they are thin, old Demai, or they are timid.

Sun Erlang couldn't help but sigh. The local security army was probably just this kind of virtue.

Having said that, whoever has a medical skill like a little bit, will he be a military officer?

The military pay of regular soldiers is much more generous than here.

Sun Erlang was too lazy to ask in detail, probably he was also a waste of money in the Caizhou army.

So, with these twelve doctors, they took them to the county government.

What surprised Shi Xiaofan was that these twelve people didn't even know Dongfang Yanggang's whereabouts.

In other words, they had never heard of Dongfang Yanggang being brought back to the military camp.

At first, Shi Xiaofan thought they were lying.

When they were about to be punished, the twelve guys were so scared that they were so scared that they couldn't help but kneel down and beg for mercy and shivered.

Logically speaking, they should really not know.

If Dongfang Yanggang was really hidden in Ping'an Military Camp, these twelve people would never know the truth.

Because Dongfang Hongtai must ask them to treat his son.
