Qi Guangyi led the cavalry and drove a group of barbarian soldiers to the camp.
These barbarian soldiers lined up in long dragons, and the people in front and the back were connected by ropes to ensure that they would not escape.
In addition to these slave soldiers, some cavalry also drove cattle and sheep, which were all robbed from barbarian villages.
After boarding 6 in Jinzhou, they followed their plan to create chaos near Jinzhou and robbed everything they could grab.
The effect of this is extremely effective, and the cavalry hunters soon have continued to support them.
However, Qi Guangyi was not nervous at all, because according to time, Ye Qingyun should also take the Liaozhou City, which is equivalent to they smashed a nail in the barbarian hinterland.
And even if Liaozhou City cannot be defended, they can easily retreat to Beisha City and Haigu City, where they are evacuated by warships.
Of course, this is the worst case, but now everything is clearly unexpectedly smooth. Perhaps Lu Fei attracted most of the barbarian cavalry, and the number of barbarian cavalry who came to support Jinzhou City was not large.
The barbarian soldiers they captured were small groups of cavalry who came to support.
Before the sun set, Qi Guangyi and his party returned to the camp. After they returned, a group of businessmen swarmed over, with wolf-like eyes in their eyes.
Qi Guangyi's expression remained unmoved. He had become accustomed to the greedy appearance of these businessmen. In fact, the businessmen had been waiting in the camp for trade with them these days.
The army is dispatched, and food is needed. The most difficult thing for the 30,000 cavalry to appear in Jinzhou this time is the supply.
In order to fight the barbarians in Pingzhou City, most of the slaves were transporting grain and ammunition for Lu Fei and others.
In order to solve their supply problem, the emperor gave him an idea that has never been before.
Before the expedition, the Chamber of Commerce summoned the merchants of Dayu State and told them that everything looted by the cavalry in Jinzhou this time could be sold to them.
Of course, the premise is that they exchange the fodder, grain, and silver for the warhorses, so there will be such a scene in this camp.
"Commander Qi, these barbarian soldiers are good, each of them is very strong, and I'm willing to pay a dozen of silver to buy them."
Ding Wu said loudly to Qi Guangyi.
Now the most precious thing to the merchants of Dayu is the slave, so they learned that the barbarians who were arrested can be slaves, so they took the risk and rushed here.
"Twelve taels." Qi Guangyi's tone is unquestionable, "My soldiers took a lot of effort to capture these slaves alive, and they have to give them some compensation."
Ding Wu rolled his eyes. Even so, these strong slaves could sell for about 17 taels when they were transported back to Qingzhou. He said, "Well, twelve taels."
Qi Guangyi nodded in satisfaction. In addition to trading with merchants, the Ministry of Military Aircraft also issued a bounty system this time.
30% of the silver gained from the Northern Expedition trade will be evenly distributed to the soldiers, and this is why the morale of the soldiers has not decreased but has increased over the past few days.
As soon as Ding Wu's words fell, other merchants also surrounded him, confirming the price, and they quickly divided the three thousand slave soldiers captured.
In exchange, they sent slaves to transport fodder, grain, meat, potatoes and other things from the ship to the camp.
Then he moved down boxes of silver.
After receiving the silver, the commander of each division immediately came to collect it, and then layer by layer to the soldiers.
If you go out to rob that day, you can get money at night. The soldiers are happy one by one. It is the feelings of soldiers to serve the country with loyalty, but coupled with the drive of interests, they will maintain a high enthusiasm for war.
Seeing the soldiers happy, Qi Guangyi smiled.
In the past, the soldiers of the Great Yu State hated war because it not only delayed them from farming, but also was often exploited by generals.
But now it's different. Obviously, being a soldier can make more profit than farming.
During the last Northern War, many soldiers who performed well received a large amount of rewards. They used these rewards to become a wealthy class in the local area, changing the image of Da Yu as a soldier, poor and humble.
For this reason, the conscription last year was very lively, and many young men rushed to join the army.
Smiling and shook his head, Qi Guangyi returned to his camp. Tomorrow will be another day.

Shanhaiguan.
Xiao Ming is writing the "Slave Act" of Great Chongqing. This law will be implemented in Great Chongqing. The purpose is to clarify the status, ownership and punishment system of slaves.
Coming from modern times, Xiao Ming is very clear that slavery will eventually be abolished, but in this era, he cannot use modern thinking to deal with the problems of this era.
Because an era itself has the limitations of an era, and this limitation is reflected in the education level of the general public.
For example, he is now trying to persuade the Europeans to stop colonizing, basically as ridiculous as he is going to African cannibal tribes to persuade them not to eat people.
After thinking about this, Xiao Ming felt that there was no need to specialize in a world where slavery was rampant, so the current "Slave Act" was created, because the influx of barbarian slaves will inevitably bring all kinds of things to the Great Yu country. All kinds of problems.
This bill is to deal with this problem.
"The emperor, General Niu is here."
While he was concentrating on writing and writing, Qian Dafu walked in.
"Let him in." Xiao Ming put away his pen, he made the cow run over~EbookFREE.me~ Every day, he needs to learn about the current situation of the war.
Qian Dafu went out, and after a while, Niu Ben walked in. Because it was customary, Niu Ben said directly after the salute: "The emperor, today Lu Fei's soldiers basically rushed to the gate of the city, but they were blocked by barbarian soldiers. It is estimated that the remaining barbarian soldiers will not be able to sustain the seven or eighty-eight consumed by the slaves. Now the barbarians are very impatient. Today, the barbarian Datai Jiwushugu led the cavalry to continuously attack the car camp along the road, and the soldiers in the camp were casualties. It's huge."
"The crazier the barbarian cavalry is, the more it means that they can't stand it anymore. This three-way attack has blossomed everywhere in the barbarian hinterland, finally letting the barbarian experience our mood when they were rampant in the country of Da Yu." Xiao Ming Leng Said the voice.
Niu Ben said: "The emperor said that if everything goes well, Ye Qingyun should now have a firm foothold in Liaozhou City. Then we will win Pingzhou. Jinzhou will be an isolated city, and it will be very easy to win in the end. ."
Xiao Ming nodded when he heard the words. He said: "You are going to attack Pingzhou City at any cost. As long as you break this city, the cavalry with Wushu bones is rootless duckweed, and you can only withdraw to the grassland."
"Yes, the emperor." Niu Ben responded: "Give the old minister three more days, and the old minister will take Pingzhou City!"
