Through competitions such as archery, stone lifting locks, Hou Dayong created a lively atmosphere in the Black Eagle Army. Everyone talked about the competition every day, effectively diverting the attention of the sergeants, and greatly reducing the fights and other incidents.

But Shi Hu was getting more and more frowning day by day, "The commander, if you use money like this, the Black Eagle Army will soon become a pauper. If there is no rice to be put into the pot, how can we compete?"

"What are you afraid of? I just need to ask Fu Gong to send money to the Hei Diao Jun."

"The commander-in-chief, you cannot let you get money from the mansion. This is not a long-term solution, and a mountain of gold will be hollowed out."

"It's okay, I'll come back after all the money is gone."

At the same time, Fu Gong also called him poor at home, "Alang, even if he has a wealth of thousands of yuan, he can't afford to raise an army." Hou Dayong was a duck dead - he was hard-mouthed and felt panicked when he saw money being used on the Black Eagle Army like flowing water. Hou Dayong came back from modern society and knew that the importance of commerce was basically fixed every year, and the trade potential was huge, especially border trade, which complemented each other's length and profits were abundant. He told Fu Gong Li to understand the source of Liu San's business and register the places where there were business dealings. Although Liu San died, his business still had to continue, otherwise he would have to spend all his time. However, Fu Gong tried his best but didn't understand. Judging from the situation where Fu Gong sorted out the account books, Liu San was not as rich as people imagined.

After a series of competitions, the troops were basically in a stable mood, so Hou Dayong re-formed the Black Eagle Army.

The Black Eagle Army is still divided into five regiments, and the captains of each regiment will not change. The general equipment of the Great Zhou army is each sergeant with a waist knife and a bow (with strings and arrows), as well as long swords, guns, crossbows and heavy siege equipment. Hou Dayong adjusted the weapon equipment of each regiment according to the characteristics of the team.

The first regiment was the Tiger Battalion, with Kuang Cao as the lieutenant. In addition to the conventional equipment, each of the Tiger Battalion soldiers was equipped with a light yellow birch crossbow. The characteristics of the crossbow were that it was far and accurate, and had time to aim calmly. It was an important long-range attack weapon in the era of cold weapons. At that time, bows and arrows were not controlled weapons, but because of their huge power, they were forbidden to use by the people. At that time, the proportion of crossbows in the Great Zhou army accounted for 20%. The crossbow camp was to concentrate the crossbows together and give full play to the role of the crossbow to deal with the flexibly-moved grassland cavalry.

The second regiment is the Leopard Camp, with Su Wensen as the lieutenant. The Leopard Camp is the Strong Bow Camp, and the Strong Bow Camp is full of strong men. The elite shooters in this camp can pull out a strong bow of 70 kilograms, and their effective range can exceed 80 meters.

The third regiment is the wolf camp, with Shan Zongyuan as the captain. The wolf camp is the long sword camp, with a wide body and a long sword of two meters and five meters, which is very similar to the Mo sword. The Mo sword is extremely long, with a sword of nearly three meters long. Mo sword was once arguing among the Tang army. Mo swords lined up in front of them, advancing horizontally, and the big swords fell into the enemy formation. Several people were killed and injured in each attack. The disadvantage is that the sword is too long and the attack is slow, so it is inconvenient. The wide body and long sword were developed on the basis of Mo sword, with its length but not its shortness. To a certain extent, the wolf camp can be regarded as a horse-riding infantry.

The fourth regiment was Xiong Camp, with Hu Ji as the lieutenant. Xiong Camp was a gun camp. At this time, carbines were popular. The heads were generally made of spears and hooks. There was an iron tamper that could be inserted into the ground behind the gun, and a rope made of cowhide on the pole was also a rope that was woven from cowhide, which was conducive to killing the enemy from a long distance.

The Fifth Regiment is the Lion Camp, with Wang Qingshui as the lieutenant. This camp follows Hou Dayong as Hou Dayong's guard. In Hou Dayong's mind, the Lion Camp should be trained as a special soldier, and can be used as a scout or a reserve team in wartime. Therefore, the Lion Camp is equipped with the most complex, with dozens of people each equipped with several sharp weapons. In addition, there are ten sergeants with the best archery skills, who can drive 80 kilograms of strong bows and have an effective range of more than 80 meters. They directly obey Hou Dayong's command and use it as a sniper to directly aim at the enemy commander.

At that time, horses were not produced in the Central Plains, and horses were mainly bought from the north and the west through caravans. The Black Eagle Army had 856 war horses, and the proportion of war horses was already very high among the Great Zhou army, mainly due to Liu Cunxiao's years of operation on the border. The war horses were mainly rationed to the wolf camp, bear camp and lion camp.

The Black Eagle Army re-formed, but at this time it only built a shelf, and whether it could exert its combat effectiveness depends on training.

The next month, Hou Dayong started with queue training in accordance with the training method of modern army. After thousands of years of historical accumulation, the modern army's understanding of queues has reached a considerable level. Article 1 of the "Quarantine Regulations" clearly states the significance of queues: "In order to regulate the team movements of our army, queue formation and queue command, correctly implement queue training, cultivate good military posture, strict military appearance, coordinated movements, and strict organizational discipline to adapt to the needs of technical, tactical training and enhance combat effectiveness, this regulation is formulated."

However, it is not easy to explain it to the soldiers. Even the captain of the Tiger Camp was dissatisfied with Hou Dayong's queue exercises. However, under Hou Dayong's strong oppression, the queue exercises were still carried out as usual.

The first thing to do was to carry out the queue movements of a single soldier. Hou Dayong first found forty clever young men, from standing at the right moment (that is, standing with a step), rested, stopped the method of turning (turning left, right, turning back), and moved (step, step, move, and stand firm), changed the method of turning, squatting down until standing up, taught them step by step, and then forty young men went to teach the entire battalion officers and soldiers. As for several lieutenants, Hou Dayong personally trained.

The queue movement of a single soldier took nearly ten days. Just as the soldiers were about to relax, Hou Dayong continued to carry out the queue movement of the regiment, brigade, team, and fire. This was formulated by Hou Dayong based on the actual situation of the modern army in combination with the Black Eagle Army. The main contents include: formation of fire, formation of team, formation of brigade, formation of the regiment, formation of army, flag position, collection of discrete, neatly reporting of numbers, listing in the column, formation transformation and direction transformation, etc.

According to the different division of labor of the Fifth Regiment, Hou Dayong formulated drums and flags to command the Fifth Regiment's actions based on the standards set by the Privy Council, and combined with the formation of modern military forces to facilitate command.

While the training intensity continued to increase, Hou Dayong raised the food standards for the sergeants. High-intensity training must be sufficient nutrition as a guarantee, and according to the normal rations of the army, it was far from meeting the needs of the sergeants. Hou Dayong asked Fu Gong to continue to deliver meat and food to the army, which made Fu Gong feel heartbroken. Seeing that the commander took a lot of money from the mansion in order to do a good job of training, he was moved by Hou Dayong's generosity, and his resistance during training gradually became less.

After busy for a day in the military camp, Hou Dayong returned to the mansion with exhaustion.

As soon as he returned home, Fu Gong said something that made Hou Dayong depressed. Hou Dayong stabbed Zhao Wu with a dagger, and inserted the dagger on Zhao Wu's back and was taken away by Zhao Wu. Hou Dayong sent Fu Gong to Zhao Wu's family to urge him to ask for the dagger, and even a little scared the Zhao family. Unexpectedly, the Zhao family was not afraid and refused to admit it. Fu Gong had no choice but to give up. "What a pity, I must find a way to get the dagger back, so I can't take advantage of Zhao Wu."

At this time, after the dangerous period of first receiving Liu Sanfu, twenty military academies had returned to the military camp, except for the two personal guards. Hou Dayong asked He Fugui for help, and according to the principle of voluntary, he selected five of his disciples as guards, with ten stakes per month.

After making various arrangements, Hou Dayong moved from the other courtyard to the main courtyard.

In the bath room, Chunlan gave Hou Dayong thoughtfully. Hou Dayong was extremely tired, squinted his eyes and relaxed his whole body. After taking a shower, Hou Dayong became a little more energetic and hugged Chunlan and became intimate. Both of them felt it.

Hou Dayong said: "Go to the bed and help me rub it."

Hou Dayong lay on the bed. According to Hou Dayong's request, Chunlan held the wall and stepped on Hou Dayong's back with her feet. Chunlan had never learned this method, so she was naturally clumsy when she did it. Hou Dayong asked Chunlan to lie down and stepped on Chunlan with her feet to demonstrate. Hou Dayong had specially learned relaxation massage in the army. Effective relaxation massage can help the body recover quickly after intense training. It is a necessary means of exercise. Chunlan was stepped on and soft, so she bit her lips hard to prevent herself from moaning.

Chunlan quickly learned how to step on Hou Dayong again, and she was so decent that she was just stepping on it. Chunlan suddenly felt anxious and said that she would delay for a while and come soon.

Hou Dayong's physical strength has basically recovered. He lay on the bed, waiting for Chunlan to come back, ready to be intimate. At this time, someone came in. Hou Dayong thought it was Chunlan, so he said, "Come on, rub it for me." As soon as the visitor put his hand on Hou Dayong's shoulder, Hou Dayong turned over and hugged the person in the future. Unexpectedly, the person coming was Qiu Ju. Hou Dayong was stunned. Qiu Ju's face was flushed, but he did not struggle. When he looked up at Hou Dayong, his eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness. Hou Dayong was a person who came here. Seeing Qiu Ju's expression and knew his intentions. In addition, he was already teased by Chunlan, so he put Qiu Ju on the bed and slid his fingers down from Qiu Ju's forehead. On weekdays, Hou Dayong saw Qiu Ju very slim, but he felt very round when he stroked it. Qiu Ju put his head to the side and held the edges of both sides of the bed with his hands tightly.

Hou Dayong bent down, bit Qiuju's lips, and stirred Qiuju's fragrant tongue. When he was excited, a crisp sound suddenly came, which scared Hou and Qiu. Chunlan stood at the door, and the teapot in her hand fell to the ground. It turned out that Chunlan had solved the problem and picked up a pot of tea. When she entered the door, she saw Hou Dayong being intimate with Qiuju. Her mind was waving, her hands softened, and the teapot fell to the ground.

Qiuju was shocked by the sound of the teapot. She raised her hand, but accidentally hit the wall inside the bed, making an empty sound. Hou Dayong noticed the empty sound keenly. He immediately knocked on various parts of the wall and concluded that it was empty inside, which should be the place in the secret room. Hou Dayong carefully checked and finally found the secret door. When he opened it, the three of them were stunned. The secret room was about twenty square meters, filled with coins, silver and gold products, and a large number of books, manor house deeds purchased in various places in the name of others, lists of business transactions in various places, and lists of granary hidden in various places in Cangzhou.

Hou Dayong ordered Chunlan and Qiuju to find out about the secret room, and no one could tell. Chunlan nodded, Qiuju said, "Of course, Ah Lang." Every day when he came back from the army, Hou Dayong would enter the secret room and sort out Liu San's property. Three days later, he finally got his idea. Hou Dayong looked at the huge wealth in the account book. This was completely gold ingots that fell from the world. Hou Dayong secretly thanked: "Fortunately there is a secret room, otherwise these property would be taken away by the government."

In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, after the destruction of the military system of the government, the weapons, clothing and food were all supplied by the government. At that time, the army was more than one million people, and the military expenditure increased greatly. In order to send the military's clothing and food to the army in time, the government established warehouses in Chang'an, Luoyang and towns along the canal to store grain and silk for supply nearby. During the war, grain and food envoys, military ration envoys, military ration envoys, etc. were set up at any time, and were specially responsible for transporting clothes, grain and equipment to the front line. The main sources of military expenditure were rent and tax and military farm income, and 2/3 of the national tax revenue was used for military supplies.

Since the Five Dynasties, wars have been repeated, and the national control has been greatly weakened. All border and important towns have been carrying out their own troops, making weapons and supplying food. The troops stationed in Cangzhou, whether local troops or directly under the central army, need Cangzhou to provide military supplies, so Liu Cunxiao has the strength to rebel. Liu Cunxiao quietly transferred the economic strength controlled by the Cangzhou government to Liu San. Except for Liu Cunxiao and Liu San's brothers, only a very small number of confidants knew about it, and all these few confidants were killed in the Battle of Cangzhou. On that day, the seven officials of Cao Cao only cleaned up a small part of the property in Liu Cunxiao and Liu San's family. Cao Han found that the Cangzhou treasury was empty, and he also said that the income of important towns in the border was small, and he fought with the Liao people every year, exhausting the strength of Cangzhou.

Hou Dayong was worried about the expenses of the Black Eagle Army and got a large amount of money out of thin air. He suddenly felt at ease and woke up from his sleep several times.
