Liaozhai Great Sage

"Then... the servant waits for the young master to come back."

Du Chunhua lowered her head again, very shy, and responded softly.

Soon, Li Xiuyuan left the mansion and went to Guchang.

Forming an army is a very cumbersome task, and it cannot be accomplished overnight.

Not to mention that he has not yet obtained an official position, and some things are not justified, so he can only reorganize first.

And he doesn't intend to use the system of the Song Dynasty as the military system.

It's very simple, what he formed was the Li family's army, which was a private army, and the salaries and salaries were paid by the Li family themselves. Using the imperial court's system would be a bit restrictive, because according to the imperial court's military system, some civil servants must be assigned to certain positions.

How did Li Xiuyuan allow those dog officials from the imperial court to intervene in his own army.

So forming a private army can avoid this.

Since ancient times, private armies have been very powerful, such as Yue's army and Qi's army.

Although it bears the name of the imperial court, in fact, whether it is the Yue family army or the Qi family army, they are all recruited and formed by themselves, and they cannot match the imperial court.

"For the time being, ten people form a team for the time being, choose a captain, ten teams form a battalion, choose a battalion commander, ten battalions form a capital, set up a capital, and there will be 1000 people under the command of the capital. Above the system is the general, and I will be in charge, and the army should not have too many positions at the beginning, otherwise it will easily lead to chaos." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Yes, I remember it, little one." Inside the thatched shed in the valley field, Butler Li wrote down Li Xiuyuan's words with a pen and ink.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Military positions in the army are all based on waist badges. Captains wear bronze medals, battalion commanders wear silver medals, all of them wear gold medals, and generals wear jade medals. The name is hung on the chest for easy identification."

"It's winter now, and the winter clothes at the garment factory need to keep up, so I sew them according to my previous style."

"Yes." Butler Li nodded and wrote it down.

Outside the thatched shed, more than 7000 men were queuing up to register and compile the books, and began to compile them.

"The healthy horses at the racecourse must be prepared as soon as possible, and the weapons must also be forged." Li Xiuyuan said.

He formed the Li family army must be all cavalry.

It's very simple, in this era of cold weapons, cavalry is king, and cavalry is the only way to fight against Li Liangjin.

There are more people than him, how can he compare with Li Liangjin's group of rebels, who coerce the people and have more than [-] people?

To win them first, it can only be cavalry, and it must be cavalry.

Only cavalry can win more with less and reverse the disadvantage in numbers.

After all the orders, the Li family's tiger, which was dormant in Guobei County, was about to come out of its cage.

More than ten years of preparation have accumulated wealth for three generations.

An army of nearly ten thousand people was pulled up in an instant.

There is no family in the world who can do such a skill.

But Li Xiuyuan did it.

As for Li Liangjin?

They are nothing more than bandits, not an army, and what he fears are nothing more than the hidden ghosts and monsters, such as the old demon of Montenegro, Huagu from the White Lotus Sect, Wang Ze from the Maitreya Sect...these are all transformed by thousand-year-old ghosts and ghosts. , can't take it lightly, and Li Xiuyuan also vaguely guessed that the gods of Tiangong were also involved.

This is a big game.

Take the country and land as the chessboard, and the common people as the chess pieces.

Its purpose is to strangle Li Xiuyuan, a saint on earth, and continue to make this world dark.

Li Xiuyuan has entered the game now, and is already making moves, and this game of chess must be won. When he learned the Dao of Slaying Immortals, he had no way out.

Looking up at the sky outside the grass shed.

It was dark and gloomy, and I don't know if it was going to snow.

In the past few days, Li Xiuyuan was busy with the formation of the Li Family Army.

He didn't have many helpers, and he had to solve many things by himself, but fortunately, no one added to the chaos, and the formation of the army went smoothly. In less than three days, the army began to compete in fists, kung fu, elect the captain, and the battalion commander. system.

If you want to be a leader, you can subdue people by force, so that there will be no complaints in the army.

Moreover, these men also believed in Li Xiuyuan's method, and felt that this method was the most fair.

It is only natural for those who are capable to be the boss and those who are not capable to be the pawns.

After being busy until almost dark, Li Xiuyuan rode his dragon horse towards the county.

And this busyness will continue.

"Hoohoo~!"

Just when Li Xiuyuan was about to enter the city, a sudden gust of wind swept across the sky, forming a vortex in midair, and then suddenly fell to the ground with a sound, as if something had fallen from the sky.

"Ok?"

He frowned, only to see a figure appearing in front of him with condensed Yin Qi.

"Young master, the little devil is not good at doing things, and he made a mistake on the road, so please forgive him."

But seeing the long sword ghost king kneeling on the ground in a miserable state, begging Li Xiuyuan for forgiveness.

Li Xiuyuan's expression changed immediately; "The Ghost King with Swords? Didn't you follow Ma Dong, Niu Er, Wu Fei and Zhu Yu to the capital?"

Seeing the ghost king with the sword appearing in front of him, he knew that there was a possibility that something happened to Zhu Yu and the others on the way.

A majestic ghost king fell miserably in front of him, kowtowed and begged for mercy, how could nothing happen.

Chapter 4 Fourteen

"What? Zhu Yu and the others encountered robbers and bandits on the road, and you were stopped by Shoushan and Genyue gods near the capital? Can't you rescue them in time?"

Li Xiuyuan's expression changed immediately after hearing the news.

Zhu Yu went to the capital this time with an important responsibility in order to buy an official position for Li Xiuyuan. Li Xiuyuan wanted to recruit Xiangyong to form an army based on this official position, otherwise, his army would be a rebellion.

Right now, the imperial court is a centipede that is dead but not stiff. Although the corruption is utterly stupid, rebellion is definitely a dead end.

Regardless of Li Liangjin's great momentum now, in fact, he can only show his prestige in the south of the Yangtze River. It is impossible to fight all the way to the capital. More than half of the imperial court's army is in the north. Even if the combat power is weak, Li Liangjin will be dragged down.

"Tell me, what happened in the end, did Zhu Yu and the others get killed?" Li Xiuyuan asked with a serious face.

The sword-wielding ghost king knelt on the ground and hurriedly said: "This little ghost doesn't know. The two mountain gods that the little ghost met were not the opponents of the mountain god at all. The little ghost had no choice but to retreat in a hurry and report this matter to Young Master, he dared not stay near the capital, otherwise if the mountain god catches up with him again, the little ghost might... not be able to come back."
