    ,

    The family also hired a maid and a male worker. The maid helped with washing and cleaning, and the male worker specialized in carrying firewood and chopping it.

    Today's young and strong laborers either gather troops for training or build roads to open up wasteland.  The male workers hired by Zhao Han's family are almost fifty years old and already gray-haired.

    ? Yesterday, the young lady went to church to get married, and today Xiyue is in high spirits.

    She is a dowry maid, and there is no housekeeper in the courtyard, so Xiyue is automatically promoted to be a housekeeper.

    Because Zhao Han has rules, and Xiyue herself is well-bred, so she doesn't flaunt her prestige indiscriminately.

    She called the four helpers together, and said in a lecture: "If you follow the old rules, you can't even enter the inner courtyard, you can only be servants of the outer courtyard. Since you have entered the inner courtyard, you should have the regulations of the inner courtyard.  When Madam came, she bought some toothbrushes and tooth powder, and you each took them to brush your teeth. Look at your teeth, your mouth smells bad when you talk"

    Zhao Han walked to work, vaguely heard Xiyue's lecture, and found it interesting, and it was funny, this girl is doing her job to enjoy herself.

    Arriving at the Yamen of the General Military Mansion, Gu Jianshan had been waiting for a long time.

    Seeing Zhao Han, Gu Jianshan immediately got up and cupped his fists: "I met Mr. Zhao."

    "Sit down." Zhao Han replied.

    Gu Jianshan did not take his seat, but untied his weapon, held it over and said, "Mr. Zhao, I am an assassin."

    Zhao Han didn't take the sword, waved him to take it back, and asked, "Who sent it?"

    Gu Jianshan said: "Ji'an is in charge of the eunuch Zhang Yin. This eunuch was ordered to return to the capital and asked me to follow the instructions of the county magistrate Wang Tiaoding."

    "Zhang Yin has returned to Beijing?" Zhao Han was a little surprised.

    Gu Jianshan said: "I don't know too well, it seems that the eunuchs are going back to Beijing."

    The eunuchs are going back to Beijing?

    Zhao Han scratched his head and couldn't figure out what the Emperor Chongzhen was up to.

    Zhao Han said: "I haven't asked your honorable name yet."

    Gu Jianshan said: "My surname is Gu Mingshan. I used to be a military household in southern Sichuan. I was lucky enough to be a scholar. Later, something happened to my family and I wandered to Poyang Lake as a bandit. I was arrested by officers and soldiers a few days ago."

    "Governor Li Maofang?" Zhao Han asked.

    Gu Jianshan said: "Governor Li Maofang is nothing to be afraid of, sir, you must be more vigilant about Jiangzhou's military preparations, Wang Siren."

    Zhao Han hurriedly asked: "What's the difference between these two?"

    Gu Jianshan explained: "Governor Li Maofang is very talented, but he is very greedy. After he took office, he immediately recruited 2,000 pacesetters. Due to lack of money and food, he joined forces with the prefect of Nankang to extort violently. He also used the excuse of suppressing bandits  , intercepting the food and salaries of the various guards, the Jiujiang Guard was provoked by him to mutiny, and it was Wang Siren who helped to put down the chaos."

    "Where's Wang Siren?" Zhao Han asked again.

    Gu Jianshan said: "Wang Siren is deeply popular among the people. The soldiers under his command have never committed any crimes wherever they go. If I hadn't gotten involved with Li Maofang, I almost took the initiative to defect to him."

    Wang Siren can not only do things, but also be an official.

    Although it is just a small matter of military preparations, three of the six ministers today have a good relationship with him.  Moreover, these three ministers belong to different factions.

    Wang Siren is proficient in both Wen Tao and martial arts, and is relatively clean and honest, which can be called perfect.

    If I insist on looking for any shortcomings, I am afraid that there will only be lust. There are only a few formal concubines, and there are many unnamed housemaids.

    Zhao Han continued to inquire: "How is the strength of these two men?"

    Gu Jianshan said: "Wang Siren recruited more than 3,000 soldiers, of which 1,000 were sailors. Li Maofang had 2,000 pacesetters, and also recruited many civilian husbands. These two people are used to making money, and the leader of the water bandits in Poyang Lake was bribed by them.  Otherwise, I wouldn't have lost so quickly."

    "Where are the uprising brothers in Duchang County?" Zhao Han asked again.

    "In two or three months at most, the officers and soldiers will be able to pacify Duchang County." Gu Jianshan guessed.

    Zhao Han began to think quietly. If the normal procedure was followed, Li Maofang and Wang Siren should go to conquer Nanfeng, Pingxiang and Ruijin first after they put down the civil unrest in Duchang.

    But who can be sure that these two guys won't have convulsions?

    If you feel that Zhao Han is more threatening and bring the navy to kill him, is it possible that we will surprise Fucheng again?

    Gu Jianshan suggested: "Mr. Zhao, Jiangxi is full of rivers and lakes. If you want to establish a foundation here, you must have a strong navy."

    "Can you train as a sailor?" Zhao Han asked.

    "Yes!" Gu Jianshan said quickly.

    Zhao Han asked: "Do water trainers need firearms and crossbows?"

    ? Gu Jianshan said?Do we have enough officials?  "

    "It's enough, and it's more than enough," Li Banghua said. "Nowadays, there are too many officials at the village and township levels. It's just right when the land is divided, but after the land is divided, it becomes redundant. If we continue to do this, when our territory grows, the officials' salaries will be spent."  It's pretty scary."

    Zhao Han asked: "Mr. Li thinks what should be done?"

    Li Banghua said: "The two towns are combined into one town, similar to the previous township. This will free up half of the officials, and they can be arranged to go to Jishui and Anfu counties." As he spoke, Li Banghua stood up and pointed to the map to draw a  Circle, "Take Anfu County, and then take Yongxin County. Send hundreds of soldiers to block the main road out of the mountain, so the prefect of Yuanzhou can't go around, so he can only go to the Ganjiang River honestly."

    This is to make a strategic development plan, take Jishui, Anfu, and Yongxin counties, then Zhao Han's site will be surrounded by mountains, and the east will be a Ganjiang River - the south will not be considered for the time being, because there are no officers and soldiers.  The west side can also be ignored, that is the border of Huguang, and the use of troops across provinces is very complicated, and it will take a year or two to go through the process.

    The more Li Banghua talked, the more excited he became: "If we win this battle, and take Taihe, Wan'an, and Longquan to the south, then the mountains and rivers will be victorious and solid as gold."

    According to Li Banghua's idea of ??expansion, it is equivalent to occupying the entire Jiangxi Basin. At that time, there will be mountains in all directions, and only need to focus on defending the enemies from the Ganjiang River.

    Zhao Han smiled and said, "And then."

    Li Banghua pointed at the bottom of the map: "After consolidating the territory, immediately take Ganzhou to the south and take down the whole of southern Jiangxi. After capturing southern Ganzhou, you can go north to attack Nanchang, and at the same time send partial divisions to take Fuzhou.  Can occupy the entire province of Jiangxi!?
