At the beginning of June, Zhang Yubo recruited more than 6,000 people from the displaced households of Xu Si and handed them over to Lin Bin, and the family moved to Qingjiangpu Beitan for resettlement.

In addition to 60,000 taels of Anjiayin directly issued to the recruited Jianyong, Lin Jian also drew another 60,000 taels of silver for the damming of Beitan and Tuntian.

Liu Tingzhou only settled near Huai'an, and after these 6,000 Jianyong were trained into elite soldiers, Lin Jian couldn't take them back to Chongzhou.

Six thousand warriors arrived, and Lin Jian directly incorporated these people into the personal guard camp.

With Zhao Hu as the brigade commander, Zhang Jiheng, a brave general from the Fengli battalion, Yao Mazi, Ma Po Monkey, Chen Enze and others were promoted as the battalion commanders, and the two hundred elite soldiers of the original personal guard battalion who brought Huai'an were scattered, and more than 100 alternate military attachés were transferred from the war training school in Chongzhou.

Lin Jian was not in a hurry to transfer the 10th battalion of guards to cross the Huai to assist in guarding Shukou, and directly transferred the 10th battalion guards to assist Zhang Yubo and Liang Wenzhan in reconciling the families of the guards battalion in Qingjiangpu North Beach.

In other places, the homeless households were recruited as soldiers, or they were coerced and forced to enlist in the army, and the more generous ones were given a settlement bank.

These are far from sufficient, and this is a key factor in the fact that it has always been difficult to recruit displaced people into the army.

Ding Zhuang of Xisha Island dared to act and was willing to die for Lin Binding, because they knew that their family was carefree in the rear and would not suffer from displacement.

If they are cowardly on the battlefield, not only will they not be able to raise their heads, but their families will also be unable to raise their heads. It's even more impossible to be a fugitive.

If you want to make your soldiers brave in battle, there is no other way to do it, as long as they can fight with peace of mind and no need for other care.

This is precisely the most important consideration of logistics and internal affairs capabilities, and it is not possible without a deep foundation.

Lin Jian was not in a hurry to train the personal guards of the 10th battalion, nor was he in a hurry to transfer them across the Huai to assist in guarding Shukou, but first used to settle their families, so that they could solve the worries of the families with their own hands or with their own eyes, so that they could finally become soldiers who dared to fight and ordered and forbidden.

After the completion of the dredging project of the Yunyan River, Ge Siyu, the supervisor of the work, did not return to Jiangning, but secretly transferred Lin Jian to Huai'an to take charge of the construction of the embankment on the north beach of Qingjiangpu.

The terrain on the north bank of Qingjiangpu is quite complex, and the difficulty of building an embankment lies in the selection of an embankment site.

If the embankment is built too far from the water, a lot of barren beach resources will be wasted, and there will not be enough grain fields; If you are too close to the water, when the water level rises in summer and autumn, it may soak too deep and become a dangerous embankment.

At that time, there was no reinforced concrete to build a strong embankment, and under the current conditions, 20,000 or 30,000 people could only dig mud to build a levee in a short period of time.

The mud embankment naturally cannot be strengthened, and the site selection of the embankment cannot be careless, otherwise the water will continue to rise, and the embankment will collapse, which will cost thousands of lives.

Generally speaking, it takes months to simply survey the site of the embankment.

Even if Lin Jian had the insight of a thousand years later, there was no good strategy for him to choose the embankment site in a short time.

However, the wisdom of the people of the time does not allow future generations to look at it.

From the second day of June to the sixth day of June, Huai'an continued to rain heavily for several days, and the water level in Puli of the Qingjiang River rose sharply.

On the afternoon of the sixth day of the first lunar month, Ge Siyu borrowed a big boat from Shuiying, took advantage of the heavy rain to travel on the water, and poured thousands of bags of wheat bran into the river and scattered.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, when the rain continued to rain, Ge Siyu continued to send large boats on the water to dump wheat bran into the river.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the sky was fine, and Ge Siyu scuttled several ships loaded with sand and gravel at the mouth of the Huai River into Qingjiangpu, reducing the amount of water flowing into Qingjiangpu from the Huai River, and the water level of Qingjiangpu continued to drop from the eighth day of the first lunar month.

Ge Siyu pointed to this line, and said to Zhang Yubo, Liang Wenzhan and others: "Build an embankment along this line, and reclaim the barren beach behind the embankment to plant ......."

Lin Jian was very emotional, if the imperial court used Ge Siyu to repair the Yellow River embankment, how could there be a rebellion of 300,000 people who repaired the Yellow River embankment?

After Ge Siyu was a craftsman, he was able to participate in Kexing's entry into the Ministry of Industry as a clerk, which was already a big face given by the Jiangning Ministry of Industry to the old engineer Ge Futian. Under the current system, not to mention the Ministry of Industry, even the official positions of Langzhong and Yuanwailang, Ge Siyu should not have any hope in this life.

The Shukou camp was controlled by Qin Chengzu and confronted Chen Hansan in the north; Lin Jian will not stay in Huai'an City either.

Lin Jian set up the humble camp on the embankment construction site of Pubei Beach in Qingjiang, and personally commanded the construction of the embankment, as if he was no longer the military governor of the Huaidong region.

In addition to the 10th battalion guards, Sun Jingtang also led more than 2,000 auxiliary soldiers from the 4th battalion to assist in building the embankment, erecting simple camp tents, and relocating military dependents.

In fact, Zhang Yubo and Liang Wenzhan only mobilized more than 100 people from Huai'an City, and in the end, these more than 100 people were sent by Lin Jian to be responsible for purchasing grain from Huai'an counties to supply the embankment. The matter of building the embankment and relocating the family was all taken over by Sun Jingtang, Ge Siyu and other Chongzhou departments.

In Huai'an, it was sunny for ten consecutive days after the eighth day of the first month, although Huai'an was extremely hot, but it did not delay the construction of embankments and training.

The pro-guard battalion spent half a day participating in the construction of the embankment and half a day of training.

Although the battle training and embankment construction were extremely difficult, what complaints could these newly recruited soldiers have to complain about the tenants who had lost their land before, and then the displaced households, who had lost their land before, and then the displaced households, who could see their families settled down, clothed themselves, fed their stomachs, sheltered from the wind and rain, and built into fields to cultivate and not suffer from displacement, and when they saw the generals, military attachés, and the rulers who worked tirelessly and sweated like rain between the construction sites and the humble school fields?

On the 16th, Yue Lengqiu sent an envoy from Xuzhou to break through to Huai'an, and Liu Tingzhou took the envoy to Qingjiangpu Beitan to meet Lin Tie in the scorching heat.

Seeing the scene of the embankment construction and training in North Beach, Liu Tingzhou's intestines were full of regret.

Only half a month has passed, and Liu Tingzhou knows that he has fallen into the forest, but the wood is already in the boat, does he still have the ability to forcibly dissolve the 6,000 displaced people?

In fact, on the eighth day of the sixth lunar month, 6,000 homeless people who had only been training in the city for seven or eight days marched out of the city in a neat team, and Liu Tingzhou knew that he had fallen into the trap of the forest.

In his opinion, Lin Jian may not be able to say that his strategy is unparalleled in the world, and his ability to govern the army is unparalleled in the world.

Liu Tingzhou has not seen anyone who can pull out the city in a neat line of 6,000 newly recruited homeless people in seven or eight days, and he is afraid that it will have no problem to fight with the ordinary homeless army, and it is more than enough to defend the city.

In the past, it was said that Lin Lian recruited 3,000 people to go north to capture the Qin Wang and won the four victories of Yannan by luck, but today I witnessed it with my own eyes, and I knew that Lin Lian was unparalleled in the world in governing the army.

In three or two months, it becomes a strong army, and others can't break it, but Lin Tie is as easy as a hand.

Liu Tingzhou didn't see the trick.

With the strength of one person, it is far from enough to neatly pull Ding Zhuang, who is mostly illiterate, out of the city in seven or eight days.

However, it was not Lin Jian who successfully operated these 6,000 newly recruited soldiers as an army in seven or eight days, but a complete command system composed of more than 300 qualified military attaches and veterans.

The guards of the guard battalion who guard Lin Bin's daily travel were originally selected from the elite elite.

The head of the banner of the fifteenth soldier and the chief of the sixty soldiers, if they can't let their new soldiers walk out of the neat queue with weapons and armor for seven or eight days, even if these new soldiers are illiterate, they can go home and pick up their children.

The command system of combat in the world was mainly based on the transmission of signals and lights, supplemented by heralds.

Lin Jian did not attach importance to the queue, but in the army, he strengthened the command function at the level of the sentry general, and strengthened the communication command of the herald of the battalion to the outpost, so as to make up for the lack of command of the flag and the light transmission.

In order for an army to be mobilized, under normal circumstances, as long as the military attachés at the level of flag leader and commander can understand the rather complicated command system of flag and light transmission, it can ensure that the ranks are not chaotic and can be drawn into the battlefield to fight.

If you want ordinary soldiers to understand the communication system, this army is afraid that it will not be able to do it after three or five years of training.

In the previous combat training literacy class, and after the combat training school, the first thing that the students had to learn was to command the flags and drums, and the real simple literacy, combat formations, and simple tactical learning should be ranked behind this.

This is also just a matter of Lin Jian choosing some content from the non-commissioned officer system of later generations to adapt to the current world and changing it.

Even if the fighting is reduced in the later period, there is no need to maintain so many troops, and ordinary non-commissioned officers can be disarmed and returned to the field, but qualified non-commissioned officers must be reserved, and they must be further strengthened.

When the war is tense, we can use these non-commissioned officers as the basis for a large-scale expansion of the army, supplement the non-commissioned officers, and train them, so that a strong army can be drawn out in a short period of time.

The 3,000 soldiers and horses that Lin Tie had recruited and formed in Jiangning before King Qin went north was just a childish form of this concept of governing the army. With Jiyun Wuwei and Changshan Island elites as the backbone of grassroots military attachés, and then with the people who have undergone preliminary rotation training, mixed with recruiting bravery, we will have a field elite in a short time.

At this time, Lin Jian had already gained a firm foothold in Chongzhou, and this move was naturally perfected.

If there is no ready-made military attache command system that is directly implanted, it is not possible to select qualified flag heads, commanders, sentinels, and battalion commanders from among the 6,000 people, and it will not be possible to do it in three or five months, and it will even have to be sharpened by countless cruel and bloody battles before it can finally grow into a strong and strong army.

The ten battalions of guards are all selected from the Xu Si area of the brave and strong, the proportion of martial arts practitioners is also very large, and after a period of training, they will be pulled out to suppress bandits, fight weak enemies, and adapt to the bloody battlefield, which is comparable to the capable soldiers in the exile army.

Lin Lian was wearing a green armor that was scorching hot in the sun, and the inner lining was soaked with sweat over and over again, full of sweat, and he was standing on the embankment scooping cool boiling water to drink, and saw Liu Tingzhou coming in a carriage with a canopy to shade the sun, passing by the school field, watching the training of martial arts, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and said to Zhao Hu beside him: "What is he doing when he goes out of the city at this time?" ”

Zhang Yubo, who has always been able to share weal and woe with the people, couldn't bear this ghost weather and went back to the city to escape the summer.

Of course, Zhao Hu couldn't guess that Yue Lengqiu sent a messenger from Xuzhou to break through the siege came to Huai'an again.

When Liu Tingzhou's horse team approached, Lin Jian saw the face of Tao Chun, who was sitting beside Liu Tingzhou, and knew what was going on. Tao Chun didn't come to change into clean clothes this time, and after breaking through, he dressed up as an old farmer, and it was no wonder that Lin Jian didn't see it at first, thinking that this Tao Chun sneaked back to Xuzhou after breaking through from Xuzhou last time to rescue, and he was really loyal to Yue Lengqiu.

The carriage stopped in front of Lin Lian, and without waiting for Liu Tingzhou to speak, Tao Chun got off the carriage and knelt on the ground, howling loudly: "Please Lord Lin think of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Xuzhou and send troops!" Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, including men and women, old and young, and children who have just given birth to breastfeeding, are all hanging by a thread, looking forward to the king's northern aid! If Lord Lin doesn't agree to send troops, Tao Chun will kneel here! ”
