Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh
"This new fleece jacket looks nice and tight, and is comfortable to wear!"
"Yes, it's much better than before!"
With the arrival of the last ten thousand imperial guards, the entire Hezhou military camp was filled in an instant. You can meet people in just a few steps. There are dozens of cars of night fragrance transported out every day.
But there are still benefits. The imperial guards not only brought a lot of weapons, supplies, some money, but also brought new fleece jackets.
"It's really kind to make clothes. Tsk, the shoulder scarf is made of silk." Someone exclaimed.
"I heard that this set of clothes costs five hundred yuan!"
"Be good, this dress is worth half a month's salary!"
The military uniforms in the past were from different sources, and most of them were hand-sewn by small households. The needlework of the common people and women was good and bad, and they could only be called covering the body and keeping the cold.
But now the new clothes are made by a special weaving workshop and are affiliated with Shaofu Temple. In recent days, many spinning wheels have been built, recruiting thousands of women to weave clothes every day. In addition to military uniforms, the clothes of the imperial court, the eunuchs and maids in the harem are also provided by it, earning a lot of money.
Especially after the merger of the Li Chamber of Commerce and Shaofu Temple, the Li Chamber of Commerce's branches in various places provided a large number of cheap materials, which were low-cost and cheap, and were favored by the people of the capital. The fabrics they woven were sold well in the Prince's Mansion.
If the emperor hadn't wanted to compete with the people for profit and limited the scale of his dumping, there would have been no idea how many distribution banks in Lingnan would have gone bankrupt.
The new military uniform is red and black, with very fine stitching, and the outside is a thick linen that is wear-resistant, and some parts are made of leather! For example, a large amount of leather is pieced together at the shoulders, arms, wrists, and collar, which is the junction of the armor. Using leather instead of cloth pads can reduce the rubbing of the iron armor, making it much more comfortable.
The middle layer is a kapok-filled jacket, which is used for warmth and is lined with flax, which is soft and breathable.
After changing into it, everyone felt the real warmth for the first time and no longer wanted to wear old and uncomfortable military uniforms.
The new military uniform board looks beautiful and keeps warm. Everyone looked at each other and praised: "Not bad! Not bad!"
"The emperor still cares about us in his heart!"
"After all, we are working hard for the country's borders. The emperor is very good, much better than the previous emperor!"
Loyalty is illusory, invisible or touched, but can be easily felt. The soldiers work hard every day and rarely feel the emperor's care.
Now the treatment of the soldiers at the bottom has increased. They have good clothes and good food, and all kinds of favors make everyone feel that the emperor has not forgotten them... After all, many common people are still unable to eat enough at this time.
"When will we set out?" The morale of the 20,000 army gradually increased. As the new Chu recruit, Duan Youliang couldn't wait to make military achievements and win his wife and son.
"No hurry, those barbarians have not arrived yet!" Li Wei, the commander of the Right Yulin Army, lost his previous impatience and said in a deep voice.
"Besides, Zhou Xing in Chu is not aware of life and death. We should not act rashly. We should wait for Your Majesty's will!" Huang Yang, commander of the Left God Crossbow Army, said softly.
Both deputy recruits and recruits said this. Even if Duan Youliang was recruiting recruits, he would not dare to act rashly. The status of the imperial guards was transcendent, and he, as a border army, could not compare with him.
"I don't know when there will be news!" Li Wei sighed, and the depressed excitement in his heart was really uncomfortable.
……………………
But here, Pan Chongche received an imperial edict and ordered him to be the commander of the barbarian army and be responsible for integrating the barbarian army.
He had a headache if he didn't hear this order. Although he had been guarding the northwest for many years and had some prestige, the Manliao, after all, was a Manliao. Although he had been in the Chinese for many years, he was still wild and difficult to tame, and it would be difficult to integrate it.
"What can I do for it!" The emperor's will had to be followed, which was also extremely challenging for him, the old man.
With his personal soldiers, Pan Chong entered the barbarian camp without looking back.
There was a mess here. Although the barbarians were Chinese, they were not good at garrisoning the military camps, and they were all kinds of filthy places. He couldn't help but frown.
"Go and beat the drums and let all the leaders come to see me!"
Pan Chongche's prestige made the leaders of all sizes fear it like a tiger. In less than half an hour, more than a hundred people were already crowded in the military tent and came to pay their respects with their heads down.
"You are all people who received military orders many years ago. They also knew about the discipline of the army when Emperor Zhongzong was following us in the north to fight against Chu State. From today on, if anyone violated my military orders, they will be killed without forgiveness!"
"No--" Those leaders have been in the Chinese world for many years, wearing simplified robes, and their bodies trembled.
The first time he summoned so many barbarians, he was really a little powerless for a while, but the emperor said something to him, which inspired him a little.
"The upper and lower levels in the army are very strict, and everyone is the leader in the cave, and no one can accept each other. This is very unfavorable for marching and fighting. Now I will clearly determine that if there is any violation, you can kill it!"
Then Pan Chongche began to consolidate his army according to the model of large and small control.
For example, there are more than one hundred people in a hole, and the leader is the head of the capital. The dozens of people formed the capital with the others, and appointed a warrior as the head of the capital. The others were also divided into this way...
In this way, according to the division of the army, each small leader became the head of the head, the team leader, and the big leader of the commander of 500 people, and there were several.
In this way, there were thousands of barbarian soldiers who were split up, temporarily breaking away from the leader's control and regaining superiors.
This was not enough. Pan Chongche better controlled the barbarian army. He drew five hundred people from the ten thousand people, all of whom were brave and acted as personal guards and military police.
This several splits were made, and the riots were integrated in one go, and they had initial combat effectiveness, which Li Jia was very satisfied.
"The skills of the Qing family are really admirable!"
Li Jia looked at the general who bowed his head and couldn't help but sigh: "In this way, these barbarian soldiers can really be used!"
"Your Majesty is a mistake!" Pan Chongche smiled heartily and said loudly: "These barbarians are all familiar with barbarians. They followed me in wars during the previous dynasty Zhongzong (Liu Sheng). They still surrendered to the court, and their money was touching!"
"In this way, it is possible to register all households and be included in the household registration?" Li Jia asked.
"Difficult-" Pan Chongche directly rejected:
"Although Mahman can be cultivated compared to Shengman, the imperial court still has too many taxes, and there are many corrupt officials. Mahman is afraid of it like a tiger. Even if he is forced to die, they will not surrender!"
"If Your Majesty forces you, it will be difficult to recruit the barbarian soldiers in the future. The forefront of the Tang Dynasty was forced to force you. Now the barbarians can still recruit barbarian soldiers. This is the reputation of the court for decades!"
Fearing that the emperor would have such an idea, Pan Chongche quickly persuaded him, very anxious.
"Your family is a little restless, I know!"
Li Jia smiled and shook her head, which made Pan Chongche feel a little more relaxed. No one who can win the world is easy to be with him, and he is deeply in mind and must know the consequences.
