Shanhaiguan only began to set up a general military officer in the Wanli period, and the authority and personnel were not as good as Jizhen.

The general soldier of Shanhaiguan in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen was a native of Yulin, Shaanxi Province, also known as Gaodi, whose name was Hanchong.

At that time, he only had 10,000 regular soldiers, and his strength was far inferior to Wu Sangui, the general training soldier of the Liaodong Regiment, because Wu Sangui had 40,000 horses in the Guanning Army, of which there were several thousand ironclad soldiers.

It can be seen that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was completely based on strength to speak, and the regimental training of the general soldiers was a miscellaneous brand, as long as the soldiers were strong and strong, the general officers of a town would bow their heads.

Once Hanzi becomes the chief military officer of Shanhaiguan, the Shan Zheng barracks can have 6,000 men and horses, cavalry and infantry, and can also control the strange barracks, reinforcement camps and guerrilla barracks that are also stationed at Shanhaiguan, and if the men and horses are full, they can exceed 20,000.

Moreover, at this time, the imperial court was rewarded for meritorious deeds, and it was not too much to give the deputy general of Jizhen the great merit of slashing Seleng in hand, but it was not too much to get the actual award of a chief military officer, but where to garrison it was to be discussed.

This temptation is too great, and Huang Han is happy to see it.

He hugged his fists and said: "My lord lifted Yang Dalang, and the officials thanked him a lot, but it was not easy to be promoted to the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan to garrison Guancheng." ”

Lao Gao Di laughed and said: "It's true, it will be difficult for other people to operate this matter, but this official can naturally persuade the military department to say that the son of heaven, because Yang Dalang has a reputation for being honest and straightforward, and the court is not worried about other people, and it is a hundred to rest assured of such a general." ”

Seeing that Gao Di was full of words, Huang Han was interested, and Han Zi could really become the chief military officer of Shangshan Customs, and he would definitely take over at least three or four thousand Ming troops.

When the time comes, they will adopt a combination of methods like Ning Yuan, eliminate the indiscriminate and remedial soldiers, and then use the number of troops to the fullest, and station 3,000 cavalry and infantry in Shanhaiguan with a flick of a finger.

In less than a year, regardless of the odd barracks, reinforcement barracks, or guerrilla barracks, the entire Shanhaiguan garrison will be assimilated by the "Red Banner Army", and even the garrison battalion is no exception.

Huang Han didn't hide his feelings, and Le Zizi toasted: "Xiaguan Lord Xie Chengcheng, to be honest, there are two brothers Qin Yiming and Ma Xianglin stationed in Shanhaiguan with 7,000 white pole soldiers, and Xiaguan feels steady.

When I heard that they were going back to Sichuan, my heart was empty, the lower officials really didn't feel at ease with the Guanning army, and they were not too familiar with the generals of other military towns, and there was no relieved army in Shanhaiguan, and they really had a feeling that their foundation was unstable. ”

Gao Di said: "This official has the 'Red Banner Army' stationed in Ningyuan, and the White Pole Soldiers stationed in Shanhaiguan, and his post in Liaodong Economic Strategy is more comfortable than the last time.

The official is old, he does not seek merit but no fault, and several Liaodong economic strategies have not died well, and the official also hopes that there will be a fierce general like Yang Dalang by his side to protect the official and live a few years of down-to-earth life, and finally die. ”

Seeing that Gao Di's words were very clear, let the "Red Flag Army" develop, as long as his safety is guaranteed, and he can explain to the imperial court, Huang Han stood up and saluted:

"The lower officials not only guarantee that they can make the adult Liaodong Jingluo comfortable, but also guarantee that the adult will make great achievements."

All of them present are the "Red Banner Army" and the generals of the White Pole Army, and the civil officials are Gao Di and Gao Youqian, all of whom are their own people, and they talk very happily, Ma Xianglin and Qin Yiming both raised their glasses and wished Hanzi that he would become the chief military officer.

Who knew that Hanzi was confused, his face was unhappy, and he shouted: "Brother Han, I am not rare to be the chief military officer of Shanhaiguan, I will not leave the 'Red Flag Army' and will not leave you." ”

Qin Yiming smiled and said, "Yang Dalang, no wonder people call you a fool behind your back, are you stupid?" Why leave the 'Red Banner Army'? Why don't you turn all your men into the 'Red Banner Army'? ”

Hanzi said hesitantly: "It doesn't matter if I call Hanzi, it's not easy to transform an army, I, I can't do it alone!" Brother Han, let Xiao Song or Da Nian be the chief military officer, they have a lot of hearts, and they must be much better than me. ”

Gao Di almost burst out laughing, he said: "Do you know why this official can get his wish for General Yang to ask for the chief military officer of Shanhaiguan, often the imperial court is like this, deliberately if you don't come, you can't push off what you don't want." ”

Ma Xianglin and Huang Hannai are sworn brothers, and now they have another layer of affection, and he and Qin Yiming led 7,000 men and horses to garrison Shanhaiguan and were a little lost.

The reason is actually that Huang Han led the "Red Flag Army" to make many meritorious achievements, and he left his hometown to make meritorious contributions.

His mother wrote to inform him of the chaos in Shanxi, and now Sichuan is also full of robbers, so he negotiated with Qin Yiming and asked to lead his men back to Sichuan, several months earlier than in history.

Huang Han didn't know when the two eldest brothers would be able to go home, so he gave them a thousand war horses and 300 pairs of all-steel cuirasses.

War horses and armor are the favorites of military generals, Qin Yiming and Ma Xianglin were of course happy to get such a gift, they drank heartily at a meal, and finally they both fell drunk.

Lao Gaodi took advantage of the wine to pull Huang Han and his eldest son Gao Youmou to talk at night, and he had the meaning of entrusting his son and the nephews of the Gao family.

He also asked Gao Youmou to look forward to Huang Han from now on, think more about the "Red Banner Army", and spare no effort to ask the imperial court for food and salary to support this strong force on which it depends.

Of course, Huang Han, the olive branch handed by Liaodong Jingluo, will follow, and he said on the spot that the Huang family and the Gao family will not distinguish each other from now on, and they will both prosper and lose.

In the future, all the "Red Banner Army" will spare no effort to help the sons and nephews of the Gao family and their protégés to enter the court as officials, and strive to release a few to become prefects and prefects.

Shanhaiguan is impregnable, in the late Ming Dynasty has been firmly controlled by the Ming Dynasty, not captured by Jiannu or Liukou, and finally Chongzhen martyred the Ming Dynasty after the theoretical death of Wu Sangui to Jiannu.

In this regard, Huang Han coveted Xiongguan, and was able to effectively control Shanhaiguan, not only the two or three hundred miles of fertile soil between the western Liaoning corridor and Ningyuan were stabilized from then on, but also extended to the south to Funingwei, Tiger's Den City, and even could affect Yongping Mansion.

There are so many fertile fields in the Changli, Qian'an, and Luanzhou areas in the Guannei that too many displaced people who are unwilling to go outside the Guanxi can be housed, and the grain they produce can solve the problem of more displaced people, and only in this way can we solve the big problem of the repeated extermination of the Liujiao.

Why is the rogue getting more and more intense, and there is a posture where the wildfires are not burned and the spring breeze blows again?

That's because the fundamental problem has not been solved, but in fact the problem is very simple, that is, two words "lack of food".

When a good citizen will face the starvation of the whole family, when the mob still has a glimmer of life, there is such a multiple-choice question, who is willing to wait for death?

What's more, because of the rebellion against officials, he got a lot of benefits, he ate with a mouth full of oil and dressed brightly, and he occupied many beautiful girls, such as Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and other anti-bone boys who deliberately destroyed and broke the fragile balance.
