Wait for Cui Yan to leave.

Lu Su gave Zhao Feng a look: "Lord." ”

"In this battle with Yuan Shao, our army also suffered a lot of casualties."

"Guo Fengxiao's army all the way captured about 20,000 soldiers of Zhang Yang."

"Now these captives are being held in Shangdang County."

"In Su's opinion, these captives can be filled into the armies of all walks of life to make up for the number of casualties."

Guo Jia was at Tianjing Pass at the time, and used a strategy to lure Zhang Yang's army into the pass.

Then he asked Zhou Cang to take back the Tianjing Pass, directly cutting off the connection between Zhang Yang's army and Zhang Yang's logistics and grain team.

In the end, because of the lack of food in the army, within a few days, Yang Chou and others killed Zhang Yang, and then led the troops to surrender.

Of these surrenders, Guo Jia only took Yang Chou and others, and a few of them killed Zhang Yang's troops.

The remaining 20,000 or so soldiers were directly escorted to Gaodu and taken into custody.

After all, these soldiers had just surrendered, and no one knew what those generals thought.

Guo Jia naturally did not dare to appoint him directly.

Yang Chou and the others were about to starve to death, so naturally they didn't argue with Guo Jia.

Their idea, Guo Jia also understood, was to wait until Hanoi County was pacified, and then ask for these soldiers and horses with the credit of leading the party.

After all, it was Yang Chou and others, who surrendered with these soldiers and handed them over to Yang Chou and others to lead separately, which was originally reasonable.

What's more, Yang Chou and others also made a great contribution to leading the way.

In other words, Yang Chou and others took the initiative to submit their names.

At that time, if the military power was returned to Yang Chou and others, there would be no problem.

Therefore, Yang Chou and others can ask for the right to return the army.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Feng has never dealt with those descendants.

Because these pawns will eventually be handed over to Yang Chou and others.

After all, there are about 20,000 soldiers, although they are soldiers, but there are quite a few of them.

If it is handed over to someone else to command, the soldiers may not be satisfied, which will take a long time to slowly gather the morale of the army.

And if it is handed over to Yang Chou and others, you can directly form an army, and then go to lead the troops to fight.

It's just that since Lu Su brought this up.

It shows that Lu Su is not accustomed to Yang Chou and others, killing the master and seeking glory.

It's just about character.

Because Yang Chou can kill Zhang Yang and come to Zhao Feng.

In the future, if there are greater interests or greater crises, maybe you can kill Zhao Feng and take refuge in others.

After all, with their existing troops, they will command more than 20,000 troops in the future.

These armies can completely influence the outcome of a war.

Zhao Feng pondered for a long time: "It's okay." ”

"Anyway, now all the armies need to go to one place to guard."

"There is enough time to gather the morale of these soldiers."

"You go and tell Cui Yan and ask him to draw up another order, let the armies from all walks of life, send people to Gaodu, and select soldiers to supplement the army."

"The rest of the pawns will all be handed over to Zhang Liao!"

Lu Su waved at Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

With that, he turned and exited the hall.

Zhang Liao was stationed in Zishi to defend against the Huns.

Therefore, if there are redundant pawns, it is natural to give priority to filling in the past.

Time passes slowly.

After receiving Zhao Feng's order, the armies of all walks of life sent their troops to Gaodu to select soldiers to make up for the battle losses, and then followed Zhao Feng's orders and began to go to various places to defend the town.

Zhao Feng's order is good news for everyone.

Although the soldiers need to rein in the hearts of the army, for these leading generals, this is a trivial matter.

Compared to recruiting new recruits, it is much more convenient to retrain.

Of course, this news is naturally not good news for Yang Chou and others.

Because the army that should have belonged to them was divided up by Zhao Feng's various armies.

It's just that they have no choice but to be helpless.

After all, Yang Chou's subordinates add up to only about 2,000 people.

There was no way to pose a threat to Zhao Feng at all.

So they're very honest.

Of course, Guo Jia sent news that he told Yang Chou and others that as long as Yuan Shao was pacified, with their merits, they would definitely be promoted.

When the time comes, it is natural that soldiers will be incorporated into them.

At most, those soldiers are new recruits and need to be retrained.

Zhao Feng didn't have anything to say about this.

Although he despises the practices of Yang Chou and others, for himself, Yang Chou and others are indeed meritorious.

And it doesn't matter if they are assigned new recruits in the future.

Anyway, the recruits are all their own sons of Bingzhou and Jizhou, Yang Chou and others, even if they want to rebel against themselves in the future, these soldiers are not so easy to take away.

After all, Zhao Feng also worked the loyalty of recruits.

In a flash, it was time to harvest the winter wheat.

this day.

Tian Feng walked into the hall and waved at Zhao Feng: "Lord Qi." ”

"The taxes collected and paid in various places have been counted."

Then he put a document in both hands and presented it with both hands: "This is the statistical data of various places." ”

Xiong Da walked directly to Tian Feng, took the paperwork, and then handed it to Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng opened the document and read it carefully.

The overall level of taxation is slightly lower than in September last year, but not much lower.

After all, this is wheat, and it is normal to have a relatively small amount.

Zhao Feng didn't care too much.

Although the taxes paid in various places are a little less, the total amount of grain taxes this time has also reached 9.57 million stones.

This is 430,000 stone more than the grain tax in September last year.

Of course, these extra grain taxes are provided by more than 10 counties in Hanoi County.

The taxes provided by these more than ten county towns alone amounted to more than 1.2 million stones.

If Huaixian, Shanyang, Wude, and Xiuwu are also occupied.

Zhao Feng estimated that the tax provided by Hanoi County should be 1.6 million stone to 1.7 million stone.

It is definitely the county with the highest grain tax in Zhao Fengzhi.

Even the grain tax in Wei County is slightly less than the grain tax in Hanoi County!

After Zhao Feng finished reading it, he smiled and said, "Very good." ”

"Now that we have so much food."

"It can't be piled up in the granary and broken."

"Orders are sent to all parts of the country, and I want to recruit 20,000 new soldiers."

"As for each county, how many recruits to recruit will depend on the situation in each place."

"This matter is handed over to Brother Yuan Hao to deal with!"

Tian Feng waved at Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

With that, he turned around and exited the hall.

In fact, Zhao Feng's recruitment of new recruits this time still has some impact on the population structure of Bingzhou and Jizhou.

Although the annexation of the state has been cultivated for several years, the population of the annexation state is much smaller than that of other states.

Although Jizhou has a large population, it has not been cultivated for long.

Therefore, Zhao Feng's move will still affect the population structure.

But Zhao Feng's territory is so big now, and he has to prepare for the affairs of Youzhou, so he can only recruit new soldiers.

Of course, compared to other princes, Zhao Feng is already very good!
