Chinese General Summoning System

Chapter 62 Great harvest (below)

From Yanwangling and the other two bandit cottages, there are too many trophies. There are more than 28,000 taels in gold alone, more than 350,000 taels of silver have been seized, and as much as 20 million pieces of copper coins. Many, of course, most of them were obtained from the Yanwangling warehouse.

If the silver and copper coins seized from Weihu Village are added, the total amount of money in Liu Ji’s hands has exceeded a million taels of silver, which is definitely a huge sum of money.

If you want to pull all these gold, silver, and copper coins away, you need at least more than two hundred four-wheeled carriages.

Yanwangling has been entrenched in this mountainous area at the junction of Yongzhou and Anhui for many years, and often goes out of this mountainous area to looting counties and counties near the mountainous area, otherwise it is impossible to gather so much wealth, and Weihuzhai and the other two The bandit cottages also made a home by looting the counties and counties near the mountainous area. The wealth of tens of millions of silver that Liu Ji obtained from these four bandit cottages is about to catch up with the accumulation of some families over the centuries. Up.

Of Liu Ji’s 2500 soldiers now, 500 were cavalry. Most of these cavalry horses were captured from Yanwangling. Almost half of these 500 cavalry were cavalry from the original Yanwangling bandits. , Was incorporated by Liu Jienwei with equal emphasis.

The remaining part of the cavalry was supplemented by selecting some infantry who can ride horses, but even the bandit cavalry of Yan Wangling before, their riding skills and combat effectiveness are very average, so the 500 cavalry under Liu Ji still need a lot of It takes a long time to train to become an elite cavalry.

In addition to the 500 horses that the 500 cavalry ridden, Liu Ji still has more than 30 spare horses in his hand. As for the horses of Liu Ji’s generals, they have not been counted in it.

The mount of Feng Kun, the master of Yan Wangling University, has a very large frame, an amazing load, and a fast speed. It fits Liu Ji’s general Chen Hao. Chen Hao, who has a full-body armor on this horse, has no problems at all, so Feng Kun’s mount He was rewarded by Liu Ji to Chen Hao.

The 500 cavalrymen are equipped with iron armor and helmets. Each cavalryman is also equipped with spears, steel knives, and bows. Liu Ji is going to train these 500 cavalrymen according to the model of archers, but they also need to have the ability of heavy cavalry assault. Said Liu Ji had high hopes for his first cavalry unit.

Most of all the iron armors captured were equipped with cavalry, so of Liu Ji’s 2000 foot soldiers, only 100 were equipped with iron armor, and 1500 were wearing double leather armor. In addition, there were 400 archers without armor. It’s not that Liu Ji didn’t equip the archer with armor. In fact, there were only so many iron armors and leather armors in Liu Ji’s hands. Many of the damaged iron armors and leather armors were repaired. Liu Ji could make up 600 iron armors. And 1500 pieces of leather armor.

And the person who helped Liu Ji repair the damaged iron armor and damaged leather armor was the craftsman in Yanwangling. After taking the entire cottage of Yanwangling, Liu Ji also got more than 40 craftsmen in Yanwangling. Most of them were blacksmiths. Some cobblers and carpenters were robbed of the mountain by Yan Wangling bandits and were responsible for building weapons, armors and shields for Yan Wangling bandits. Now these craftsmen have been made up by Liu Ji as auxiliary soldiers.

In addition, there are three doctors in Yanwangling Village. They were also assigned to the auxiliary army by Liu Ji. Originally, the craftsmen and doctors were robbed of the mountain by bandits. They were unwilling to follow Liu Ji to Qianzhou to defend the border, but they were in Liu Ji’s. Under the coercion and the lure, he obediently became Liu Ji’s assistant.

In addition to the weapons, armors and shields for 2500 soldiers, there are still a lot of weapons seized. Even after more than 1,200 auxiliary soldiers and 300 female soldiers were equipped with weapons, nearly 4,000 weapons were spared.

About 2.6 million jin of grain was seized from Yanwangling, Weihu Village, and the other two bandit cottages, mainly from Yanwangling’s granary, but Liu Ji couldn’t take all the grain away. You must know that even a four-wheeled cart with two horses can pull more than 2,000 catties at most. 2.6 million catties require 1,300 such four-wheeled carts. Liu Ji does not have so many carts and horses.

However, Liu Ji couldn’t bear to give up so much food in vain. So Liu Ji sent people to contact a large grain merchant in Gongxian County, Changping County, Yongzhou, and sold 2 million catties of food at a low price of 2 coins per catty. For this big grain merchant, you must know that even the cheapest brown rice in Yongzhou now costs about 2 coins per catty. There is only a small amount of brown rice in this 2 million catties of grain, most of which are rice, wheat, Millet, soybeans, these grains in Yongzhou are now more than 4 coins per catty.

The reason why Liu Ji is willing to sell 2 million catties of grain to this large grain merchant at a very low price is because this large grain merchant is willing to help Liu Ji convert tens of millions of copper coins and a portion of silver into gold. The family of a large grain merchant in Changping County can be regarded as the most powerful and powerful.

The big grain merchant learned that Liu Ji had wiped out Yan Wangling, the largest bandit cottage in the mountainous area at the junction of Yongzhou and Anhui. He was also willing to make friends with Liu Ji, a young school lieutenant. He personally came to Yan Wangling. In addition to the 1,000 taels of gold used to purchase grain, he also helped Liu Ji exchange 14,000 taels of gold.

In this way, in addition to more than 43,000 taels of gold in Liu Ji’s hands, only 250,000 taels of silver are left, which can save a lot of carriages in transportation. Liu Ji actually wants to replace all the silver with gold, but That big grain merchant could only raise the gold in a short time The big grain merchant also promised Liu Ji that if Liu Ji can stand in Chengyin County, Da’an County, Qianzhou in the future, So if Liu Ji needs food and other materials, he can contact him.

Sold 2 million catties of grain, and the remaining 600,000 catties were also filled with 300 horse-drawn carriages. In addition to the four-wheeled carriages loaded with gold, silver, weapons and other materials, Liu Ji’s team only had two horses. More than 400 four-wheeled carriages were pulled, and all the carriages seized in the four cottages were used. In addition, more than 300 horses were added, and Liu Ji gave them to the female soldiers led by Lin Xiya and Lin Xiwen. Once in the march, the female soldier’s physical strength is exhausted and can ride a horse.

With these more than 400 four-wheeled carriages and Liu Ji’s soldiers, auxiliary soldiers and female soldiers, the marching team was discharged for many miles.

And Liu Ji’s military commanders have a few more faces, including the former Yan Wangling’s nine-headed Zhang Shuo and ten-headed Yang Hongtao, these two bandit leaders who have reached the third-rate military commander’s strength.

As for Feng Kun, the head of Yan Wangling University, who was captured by Hua Xiong, he was not in those faces.

In fact, after Feng Kun was captured, he voluntarily asked to take refuge in Liu Ji, but Liu Ji learned a little bit about Feng Kun’s previous actions and decided to abandon Feng Kun, a first-class general.

Feng Kun has been a bandit for many years, and his heart is cruel. He especially likes to destroy and torture women. What makes Liu Ji even more unbearable is that Feng Kun also likes to eat people.

Therefore, even though Feng Kun’s strength has reached the level of a first-class general, Liu Ji is not prepared to accept people like him under his command.

Not to mention that Feng Kun vowed to be loyal to Liu Ji, but Liu Ji did not receive Feng Kun’s true allegiance from the system. Such people stay with him, and it might be a disaster.
