In the winter of the ninth year of Chunyou, the Sichuan commander Wang Kui wrote a letter, saying that the infighting of the northern enemy was a great opportunity to recover the country. He invited tens of thousands of refugees to establish a new army and asked the national treasury to allocate money and grain to serve as military resources.

Lizong transferred the text to the Privy Council and the Secretariat, and the Privy Councilor and the Slaughter Shop approved the news. After a debate between the big bosses in the court, the pro-war factions and the pro-peace factions finally compromised each other and reached an agreement: it was accurate, but Wang Kui was not allowed to fight outside the Qinling Mountains to prevent it from touching the foundation of Mongolia.

Li Zong waved his pen and stamped a large seal and copied it back to Sichuan.

When Wang Kui received the final decision, he was both happy and sad. He sighed to the sky and smiled bitterly.

However, the ten army stood up.

The ten armies were named Zhenwu, Yangwu, Yaowu, Majestic Wu, Ningwu, Chengwu, Fenwu, Knight, Hubin, and Shenqiu. Each army had 3,000 people, and were led by ten people from Jinghu as commanders. They were directly under the command of the General Office and stationed near Chengdu.

Among them, the three armies of Knight, Tiger, and Divine Crossbow were named under Wang Kui, but were actually led by Changsun Hong.

The people leading the troops were Liu Zheng, Hu Ben Gaoda, and Shen Bird Ai Zhongxiao. These three people were clearly allocated to Changsun Hong's tent at the request of Changsun Hong and his own wishes. The other seven people also had this request, but Wang Kui refused.

Changsun Hong was embarrassed to bring everyone over. After all, Wang Kui also lacked talents, so the matter was decided.

The other seven armies recruited refugees in Sichuan, while Changsun Hong's three armies were mainly Dali people.

Dali people have a characteristic: they live in the mountains for generations and are particularly able to endure hardships.

In Changsun Hong's view, the reason why the soldiers in Jiangnan are vulnerable is that in addition to the wrong methods of training and simple and backward training methods, there is also the problem of the source of the troops themselves.

There is a fundamental difference between a person who comes from a comfortable and prosperous place and a person who comes from a difficult and outstanding place.

The former is always delicate, fragile and gentle, while the latter is always strong and resilient.

It’s like a person who has a wealthy family who doesn’t have to worry about eating and drinking and chanting Buddha’s name, he may not be able to bear to kill a chicken, but this problem does not exist for those who open up land and hunt every day.

Therefore, there are many heroes in Hebei and heroes in Youzhou. This is the reason. After all, it is a matter of folk customs.

Although the refugees in Sichuan are tough, they are still worse than Dali.

Those who practice military training are actually all spirits. Only when the spirit is strong can the body be strong. Only when the blade is not changed and faces death and is not afraid of life and death can the iron army be forged.

A strong person can withstand the same training that is perverted and has the foundation for forming a strong army.

Dali is poor for years. Give them some land to satisfy them. If they can eat a full meal, they can work hard for you.

This is an army that the south relies on military pay to win over, and it is simply unimaginable.

The garrison locations of the three Dali armies are also different from those of the other seven armies, and they are stationed in Rongzhou.

Rongzhou has become the nest of Dali in the territory of the Song Dynasty. Changsun Hong established a complete set of official offices here, and the court also occupies a large piece of land outside Rongzhou City.

The camp of the three armies of the Knight, Tiger Ben, and Divine Crossbow are on the sidelines of the Defence Field.

Many times, the magistrate of Rongzhou has the illusion that he is a guest and Changsun Hong is the ruling here. When he went out to inspect, he was smiling all over the place, but no one took him seriously at heart. Everyone knew that the person who was in charge here was Changsun Hong.

As a civil servant, the governor is very ashamed. No one is left to this extent by being bullied by military generals.

However, as a local official, the magistrate is very pleased because the money you spend in your pocket every year is more than that of the magistrates.

Therefore, the governor of Rongzhou was not dissatisfied. He hid his face in his crotch and hid in the government office, leisurely and became a peaceful and peaceful official.

The scene was crowded with people, shouting and shouting, and the business was in full swing.

Liu Zheng, Ai Zhongxiao and Gundam had never seen such a prosperous market in remote mountains, where the goods bought and sold in it piled up into mountains.

They have seen a lot of items sold in Dali, such as tea, iron ore, but there is one thing that is rare elsewhere in the Song Dynasty.

"This is cotton, which can be spun threaded and made into cotton cloth." When they asked, Changsun Hong, the governor of the Quotation Court, replied: "Cotton was passed down in southern Fujian. This thing is not easy to plant. When planting, it is selected for the place to choose, and it cannot be eaten or drunk. Therefore, the Song Dynasty did not spread it out, and it was an imported product brought by sea boats overseas."

Liu Zheng and others seemed to understand, but when they touched the soft and gentle cotton cloth, the surprise on their faces became even more serious.

Cotton is softer than linen, warmer than silk, and is not expensive. After making cotton cloth into clothes, it is like a firewood wrapped around it. It is extremely warm and very light, and the price is affordable for ordinary people.

Merchants from other places in the Song Dynasty were frantically buying cotton, cotton cloth and everything derived from it. They also wanted to buy spinning machines and loom machines, but were rejected by Dali merchants in the court.

"This is a top secret thing, we can't see it. The people do not allow it to exist at all. Where can you buy it?" Dali merchant said proudly: "Our Dali government is in Xuzhou, and has enclosed a piece of land, built a walled tower, and is known as a textile office. He chose thousands of skilled women to go in to produce cotton cloth and cotton coats. We all bought goods from there. This is the official business. If someone dares to engage in this privately, he will be beheaded!"

They made a neck wiping action.

"Oh~~!" The merchants of the Song Dynasty gasped in an air conditioner, feeling extremely regretful. They took the cotton cloth and looked around, and couldn't let it go. Smart people know that this is a huge profit. If you buy goods here and sell them elsewhere, you will have several times the profit. Such a good path was cut off by the Dali government. It's a pity.

After seeing the scene, Liu Zheng and others immediately understood what kind of military equipment such as Dali ghost soldiers was supported by.

Changsun Daren is well-trained and his business is better.

Outside the field, next to the new military camp of the newly established three armies is the Rongzhou Regiment Training Office.

Changsun Hong also moved his office here, next to the three of them, without seeing each other at all.

This action seemed inadvertent, but it moved Liu Chi and the other two quite. Changsun Hong took a few personal guards to live in his military camp, not treating the three of them as outsiders.

If you are not an outsider, you can see that it is obvious, but Changsun Hong’s real intention is to live closer to facilitate guidance and training.

Liu Zheng and others envied the military discipline and qualities of the ghost soldiers. No one taught them, and they would not be able to learn it.

Changsun Hong came out in person and showed them modern military training techniques. The set of arrangements, standing in a military posture, and running around in a circle with a stone lock, made the three of them stunned. There were also tips for illiterate soldiers to correctly distinguish left and right and understand the banner, which made them even more eye-catching and praise.

"Mr. Wang has already arranged enough crossbows for Ai Zhongxiao's divine crossbow army and will arrive soon. When the training is over, you can get started soon." During the training, Changsun Hong told the three people about the future development of the three armies: "Gundam's Tiger Army is a heavy infantry, with heavy armor equipment like ghost soldiers. The Dali arsenal is working day and night, and strive to build it as soon as possible."

"It's just that Liu Zheng's cavalry army has not enough horses, so it's still a problem. I have arranged some Sichuan horses and Yunnan horses. Although it's not very suitable, it's better than nothing. First respond to the emergency and then replace it with a good horse."

He looked at Liu Zheng and said earnestly: "We cannot be without cavalry. Liu Zheng, you have been capturing Xinyang with twelve horses. In the cavalry journey, you have experience that ordinary people do not have. I hope you can train a useful cavalry for me, grow our wings, and let the Mongols see that my army in the Song Dynasty also has a cavalry warrior who can show off!"
