Chapter 48 Strike Hard
Cai Wenji's "Farewell" is still a topic of discussion after many days.

On this day, Zhang Qingfeng was invited by student Li Bai to go to Gunping to inspect the training of five thousand "yamen conscripts".

Although Li Bai hasn't got all the horses together yet, he has been training infantry for several months.

This time, Li Bai allocated [-] plate armors produced by the military factory in half a month to equip these government soldiers.

Currently, as the population of Yuyang expands, although a police office has been established, social security has become increasingly severe.

Inside and outside Yuyang City, people fighting and fighting can be seen every day, which is what the common people often see on the surface.

In private, crimes such as theft, robbery, rape, and murder emerge in endlessly.

On the official roads in Yuyang, the robbers who blocked the roads and robbed became more and more arrogant.

Li Bai had no way to mobilize the troops stationed in Yuyang. He could only hope that the trained yamen army could be put to use.

These five hundred sets of plate armor were prepared for the suppression of bandits.

On this day, when Li Bai and Zhang Qingfeng brought a group of people to the recruit training camp, all the soldiers here were training in full swing.

"Yue Fei, how is the training of your soldiers?" Li Bai asked Yue Fei.

"Senior brother, don't worry, everything is going according to plan." Yue Fei said: "Now that the five hundred cavalry have high-bridge saddles and stirrups, they are fully able to fight on horseback."

"Where are the others?" Li Bai asked.

"Others have also trained very well. I believe that as long as I give me a few more months, I will be able to let them go to the battlefield to kill the enemy."

"Yue Fei, ask someone to sound the rallying call, and let me see how your training is going." At this time, Zhang Qingfeng said to Yue Fei.

"Okay." Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, Yue Fei quickly agreed.

Not long after that, Yue Fei asked someone to sound the rallying call.

As the sound of the assembly number sounded, immediately, no matter whether it was soldiers who were training or soldiers in other places, they all began to quickly gather on the school field.

"Not bad, it only took less than 10 minutes." Zhang Qingfeng praised.

He saw with his own eyes the rapid massing of soldiers.However, because some soldiers are far away from the school grounds, it took a little longer.

"Report, after everyone has assembled, there should be 340 people, but there are 16 people, please give instructions." After the assembly, Yue Fei quickly ran to Li Bai and reported.

"Why did the people who didn't show up go?" Li Bai asked Yue Fei.

"Report, the third battalion is cavalry, training in the distance, unable to assemble." Yue Fei reported.

"Well, it's very good. Teacher, what do you think?" Li Bai turned to Zhang Qingfeng and asked.

"It's very good. It can be seen that Yue Fei is very hardworking." Zhang Qingfeng nodded.

"Since the training is almost done, let's take it to practice." Li Bai nodded, and then said to Yue Fei: "Yue Fei, I will give you a day to prepare. Tomorrow you will immediately lead the army to Yuyang City. I am in Yuyang City. Wait for you."

"As ordered." After hearing Li Bai's words, Yue Fei quickly saluted.

After inspecting the barracks, Zhang Qingfeng and Li Bai went to the Luping Steel Plant.

"Teacher, there are already a lot of rails you want. When are you going to start building the railroad?" In the steel factory, Yang Shen, the magistrate of Luping County, asked Zhang Qingfeng.

"How many? How many meters of railway can be laid?" Zhang Qingfeng asked Yang Shen.

"About fifty kilometers." Yang Shen replied, "Now there are hundreds of craftsmen casting rails, and they can cast more than 600 meters of rails every day. These rails are stored in large warehouses, piled up like a mountain."

Hearing Yang Shen's words, Zhang Qingfeng said: "Currently, the team surveying the railway route has only completed half of the survey, but the survey of the route from Gunping to Youzhou has been completed, and the construction of the railway can be started."

After thinking for a while, Zhang Qingfeng said to Li Bai again: "Well, you issue a recruitment order in the name of the government. This time, tens of thousands of young and strong railway workers will be needed to build the railway."

"Okay, no problem." Li Bai nodded.

Seeing that Li Bai agreed, Zhang Qingfeng looked at Yang Shen again and said, "I will remove all those workers who built the railway in the mining area last time. You can find someone to fill the job vacancies left after they leave."

"No problem, teacher." Yang Shen nodded in agreement.

"This Yuyang is still too small, and the geographical location is not good. It would be great if one of you is the governor of Youzhou, so that the manpower and material resources of the whole Youzhou can be mobilized for development." Zhang Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Li Bai and Yang Shen looked at each other without speaking.

After visiting the Luping Steel Plant, Zhang Qingfeng and Li Bai returned to Yuyang City.

At noon the next day, Yue Fei led an army of five thousand to Yuyang City.

At the same time, the five hundred plate armor drawn by Li Bai was also delivered to Yue Fei.

Seeing the plate armor that can cover the whole body, Yue Fei was also very excited.

These plate armors will be used as protective armor for cavalry.

"Yue Fei, I have a task for you. In the next time, I want you to lead your cavalry to destroy bandits and bandits. Is there any problem?" Li Bai asked Yue Fei in the Yuyang City barracks.

"No problem." Yue Fei replied loudly.

"That's good. I will stay in Yuyang City for the remaining soldiers and assist me in an unprecedented and severe attack. Any illegal crimes will be wiped out." Li Bai said ruthlessly.

Yue Fei spent one day resting in Yuyang City. The next day, he led [-] cavalry and left Yuyang.

In the past few months, Li Bai has sent people to find out the lairs of various bandits and bandits in Yuyang and even Youzhou. Yue Fei only needs to destroy them one by one.

There were five hundred sets of plate armor, and Li Bai was not worried that they would suffer any serious casualties.

On the other side, in Yuyang City, with the arrival of thousands of soldiers, an unprecedented crackdown began.

Numerous yamen servants were assigned to all counties in Yuyang County.

Under the leadership of some originally yamen servants, they arrested countless people from various occasions. No matter what gang or faction they were, most of them were wiped out in this crackdown.

The street gangsters in the past also suffered disaster this time. Under the circumstances that there are rewards for reporting and exposing accomplices can reduce the criminal law, countless people who have committed crimes have been caught out one by one.

A week later, at the Caishikou of Yuyang City, with countless people watching, hundreds of heads rolled to the ground with an order.

At the same time, thousands of people were sentenced to heavy sentences, ranging from a few years to more than ten years or even life imprisonment.

There is only one end for them, and that is hard labor until the end of their sentence.

This severe crackdown frightened many people in Yuyang County, so that for the next few years, Yuyang City would not close their homes at night and not pick up lost items.

At the same time, on the other side, Yue Fei led his troops to suppress the bandits very successfully. Under the condition of cavalry and plate armor protection, Yue Fei's men have not yet had a single casualty.

In less than two months, Yue Fei wiped out more than 40 bandit gangs, killed thousands of bandits and bullies, and captured thousands of prisoners.

With the success of Yue Fei's suppression of bandits, the security of Yuyang County and even the whole Youzhou was cleared.

Even if there is a bandit gang that slipped through the net, they dare not appear in front of people again at this time.

With Yue Fei's appearance this time, the army he led also has the title of "Volunteer Army" among the people.

With this crackdown and bandit suppression, the prestige of Yuyang Li Bai in Yuyang County was no different for a while, and the people called him "Li Minggong" in private.
