After the thunderstorm went away, Hua'an handed over a token that could pass through the army unimpeded, and asked Hu Hou to dress up as an ordinary captain every night, enter his Chinese army tent, and report to himself the latest situation detected in Xiabiancheng, so as to fully grasp the situation in Xiabiancheng.

Hu Hou obeyed the order, turned around and left the Chinese army's tent, returned to the ruined temple where the wise men temporarily stayed, and conveyed Hua'an's order to the other five wise soldiers.

With the joint efforts of patrol soldiers, plainclothes scouts, and beggars and smart soldiers, the situation in Xia Ban City is developing in a better and better direction, and there are no serious accidents, among them, the credit of the smart people is naturally the greatest, they found many scouts can not find the situation, and reported to Hua'an as soon as possible, and then, Hua'an sent soldiers to capture all of them before the saboteurs carried out the plan, thus ensuring the prosperity and stability of Xia Ban City.

A few days later, the county guard of Yinping County submitted a table to Hua'an, expressing his willingness to submit to the court of the Great Jin Dynasty, and then Hua'an asked Yang An to send some soldiers and horses into Yinping County to receive the two cities of Yinping and Pingwu, so as to achieve complete control of Qiu Chi.

A month later, the situation in Qiuchi had basically stabilized, and Tuyuhun and Zhao had no signs of entering Qiuchi, among them, Zhao's army was mobilizing troops to the border of Liang, and there was a great tendency to attack Liang.

In Hua'an's view, Zhao Guo wanted to take advantage of the opportunity that the new monarch Zhang Chonghua succeeded to the throne for several months not long after the death of Zhang Jun, the king of Liang, and the foundation was still unstable, to attack and destroy Liang in one fell swoop, so as to obtain a large area of land in Liangzhou.

At the moment, for Huaan. This is the best time to develop strength, in the days when Zhao and Liang attacked each other, there will be no time to take care of Liangzhou, so that with only a year's effort, the army under Hua'an can be about doubled, and with such a strong strength, it can dominate the northwest and be invincible.

The midwinter wax moon is approaching. Light snow began to fall in the sky. Hua An saw that Wudu and Yinping were gradually stabilized, so he completely handed over the situation here to Lei Storm and Yang An, and then led the main army back to Nanzheng City. Before leaving. Hua'an repeatedly told the thunderstorm. You must control the situation in Xiacheng and report to yourself immediately if there is an abnormal situation. He also said that after the spring ploughing in the coming year, the equipment of the 10,000 army will be sent, and at that time, the thunderstorm can expand the infantry of 10,000, so as to better control Wudu County and hold the throat of Liangzhou and Yizhou.

Walking on the snow that was not very thick, Hua'an and his party hurriedly marched to Nanzheng City, and the army arrived at Nanzheng City in only three days.

At this moment, a heavy snowfall came as scheduled, shrouding the entire sky in white snowflakes, Hua An saw this, very happy, if he returned to Nanzheng a few days later, it would be troublesome to encounter such a big snowstorm on the way, and the loss of soldiers and war horses would definitely not be less.

After returning to the Thorn History Mansion, the first thing Hua An did was to immediately write to the imperial court, the civil strife in Qiu Chi, for the future of the Great Jin Dynasty, he sent troops to pacify the civil strife in Qiu Chi, and recovered the affairs of Wudu and Yinping two counties, made a report to the imperial court, and asked the imperial court to let him supervise the military of Wudu and Yinping, and Jian yì let his marching army Sima Xie Siming do the history of Qinzhou Thorn.

After writing the memo, Hua'an sent a messenger to send the letter to Jiankang City, and then, Ma Dang entered the Thorn History Mansion, and reported to Hua'an all kinds of important things that had happened in Liangzhou in the past month or so, and told Hua'an that all the construction projects in Nanzhengcheng this year have been completed, and all the workshops have entered the stage of production.

After listening to Madang's report, Hua Antou was very satisfied, in just over a month, not only took Wudu and Yinping two counties, and lifted a knife hanging above the heads of Liangzhou and Yizhou, but also the development of Nanzheng City was also quite good, and all the projects under construction have been completed smoothly.

In this way, in the coming year, these workshops will be able to produce a staggering amount of products, thereby increasing the Liangzhou tax revenue by a considerable amount in order to maintain a large army.

Zhang Yu's own street map was also presented to Hua'an, looking at the large-scale, all kinds of commercial facilities of the new street, Hua'an is full of emotion, once such a huge street is built, it can be set against a large number of workshops, thus making Liangzhou a commercial center of several nearby states.

However, the only regret is that the road from Liangzhou to other states is not very good, and the traffic is relatively closed, which will greatly weaken the circulation of goods, resulting in the rise of commodity transportation costs.

However, Huaan believes that as long as the products produced are distinctive and different from those produced in other states and counties, the cost of timely transportation will be larger, and it will not affect sales.

After learning about the remaining silver taels in the treasury, Hua'an asked Madang to transfer a batch of silver taels to Xiabiancheng in order to expand the streets of Xiabiancheng in the coming year, which Hua'an said in advance to the elites in Xiabiancheng, Hua'an must keep its promise, and the expanded streets will provide more convenient sales channels for the products produced by Nanzheng Workshop.

After arranging the business part, Hua An went to the Literature Museum and the Medical Hall to learn about education, and let qualified cadets enter the barracks to serve as clerks and doctors of the army, so as to improve the support capacity of the troops.

In the direction of the relatively remote deaf-mute hall, Hua An entered the courtyard where the smart people were trained, and at this moment, the third batch of smart people had completed the selection and began to carry out the most basic training to improve their camouflage and reconnaissance capabilities.

Hua An saw very clearly that the third batch of smart people were all children under the age of fifteen, the youngest was only five or six years old, and there was a disgusting snot flowing between the nose and the mouth.

Hua An felt a little cruel when such a young deaf and dumb child had to undergo cruel training, but when he was so old, he also received such cruel training, Hua An felt that only when he was trained from childhood, the smart man he trained was the best.

After questioning Huang Fuming, Hua An confirmed his opinion, Huang Fuming's intention was to continue to train the third batch of smart people until they reached adulthood, so that their abilities would be much higher than those who had only been trained since adulthood.

At this moment, the first batch of smart men have been trained long enough, in order not to let them idle, Hua'an sent them to the nearby Qinzhou, Liangzhou, Tuyuhun and Guanzhong, so that they can collect all kinds of intelligence, especially military intelligence, in addition, at least once a month, so that they can understand the situation of all parties in a more timely manner.

The New Year is getting closer and closer, and the weather is getting colder and colder, at this time, sending the physically disabled Congshi to nearby states to spy on intelligence, Hua An'an is somewhat unbearable, but only in a harsh environment can the willpower and reliability of the Congshi be better tested, so that he can see this army more clearly.

The New Year soon arrived as scheduled, and instead of soaking in the warm scent of nephrite all day, Huaan was busy dealing with all kinds of important things.

In fact, it is not that Hua'an has changed the habit of pity and cherishing jade, but because Zhuge Qi and Li Qinglian both have big bellies, and it is very inconvenient to make love, for fear of hurting them.

Not long after the New Year, the imperial order of Jiankang City was conveyed, in view of Hua'an's great contribution to the recovery of Wudu and Yinping two counties, the imperial court rewarded Hua'an with a lot of property, and officially appointed Hua'an to supervise the military of Qinzhou, responsible for the defense of Wudu and Yinping two counties in the south of Qinzhou.

For the officials of the original Qiu Chi who were attached to the Great Jin Dynasty, they were also given corresponding rewards, and Yang An was appointed as the general of the conquest.

On the issue of appointing the Assassin of Qinzhou, the imperial court complied with Hua'an's mention yì and appointed Xie Siming, an old minister of the former Li Shi court, as the Assassin of Qinzhou.

After being appointed by the imperial court, Xie Siming immediately went to Xiafen City to take up his post under the protection of the guards, and Hua'an also rightfully mastered all the affairs of Wudu and Yinping counties.

It didn't take long for the spring ploughing to arrive, and the people began to work in the fields, first harvesting the previous year's autumn crops, and then planting the new crops.

In order not to violate the agricultural time, Hua'an let the officers and soldiers of each army take turns to enter the fields to help the nearby people harvest crops and plant new crops.

In Hua'an's plan, as soon as the spring ploughing is over, a large-scale conscription will begin, for this reason, weapons and armor are indispensable, in order not to be in a hurry when conscription, Hua'an went to the warehouse and armory hall in the city to check the inventory of weapons and the creation of new weapons.

In the huge comprehensive warehouse, Hua'an inspected the military rations and weapons here, and after the report of the warehouse officials, Hua'an learned that the military rations here have been enough to support the consumption of 100,000 troops for three years, and the new military rations are still being produced in a steady stream, and in the future, the military rations here will be even larger, supporting the Northern Expedition Guanzhong, which is more than enough.

The inventory of weapons is also very large, there are more than 60,000 pieces of various long and short weapons, and there are also 60,000 armors, which are enough to equip 60,000 troops.

With these weapons and armor, it will be possible to expand the army by tens of thousands in a month.

According to Hua'an's plan, the Thunderstorm Legion was expanded by 10,000, the Zhao Wu Legion was expanded by 10,000, and the Liangzhou Legion under Chen Ting was expanded by 20,000, so that there were 40,000 troops, and with the current inventory of weapons, it was not only enough, but also a lot remaining.

In order to let the Thunderstorm Legion far away in Xiabiancheng expand its army after the end of spring ploughing, Hua'an let the baggage battalion in advance and transported the equipment of the 10,000 army to Xiabiancheng and handed it over to the Thunderstorm Legion. (To be continued......)
