    Stove households also need to farm the land!

    It's just that the land near the salt field will suffer from salinization to some extent.

    It is a bad thing and a good thing at the same time that they don't get much harvest from the land.  The big landlords look down on this place, and the land annexation is not serious, so there are many self-cultivating farmers among the kitchen households.

    After the Salt Army surrendered, the officials of Datong flocked away and distributed their fields according to the principle of proximity.

    All the saline-alkali land belongs to Xiaxiatian, and one person can divide 20 mu. When farming, it is purely based on extensive planting and low harvest.

    The year-long war here has reduced the population of the counties, and the land is not very tight.

    If they couldn't get any land, they moved further north.

    The further north you go, the less people there are!

    ? Those kitchen households will work part-time and part-time in the future, and working part-time in the salt factory is considered to subsidize their households.  If you really don¡¯t want to cook salt, and you don¡¯t have enough land to eat, then go to the county town, or simply go to sea with the boat.

    Shanghai has been opened as a port, and due to the widespread division of land in the south, the salaries for sea merchants to recruit sailors are very high.

    Especially the sand people in the Yangtze River Delta, even if their families were allocated land, they were still willing to be recruited into the navy or sailors.

    Those sand people are not afraid of death one by one, and they are more fierce than the fishermen in Guangzhou.

    The Yangtze River empties into the sea, and the river rushes out of large and small sandbars.  For example, Chongming Island is now three sandbars, and some areas have been reclaimed as farmland.

    Some people went to sandbars to reclaim and cultivate land. The salinization was very serious. Their harvests were not high, and they had to take huge risks.  They formed a group to fight against the government, and formed a group to prevent the big households from robbing the familiar land, and they could be transferred to water bandits at any time.

    These people are Sand People!

    Zhao Han's new Shanghai naval force is mainly composed of sandmen from the Yangtze River, and more than 80% of them have previous convictions for water bandits.

    Anyway, the kitchen households are divided into fields, and they are registered as citizens. If they gain personal freedom, they will not be too constrained by the salt factory.

    The 30-year lease term of the salt factory land is also the result of long-term negotiations.

    ? If the lease period is too short, the salt factory owner will only choose to make quick money and exploit the salt cookers crazily, let alone think about improving the salt-making process.  Moreover, every time the rental license is replaced, it will attract crazy snatching, which will intensify corruption.

    The 30-year license is only a sharp sword held by the government, and most salt factories can renew their lease when it expires.

    The production, transportation and sales of salt are completely separated from each other, and the merchants themselves will establish the relevant ecology.

    The Shanshan-Shanxi Merchant Gang suffered heavy losses this time, and failed to obtain a single franchise license, so they almost withdrew from the stage of salt merchants.  Who told them not to join Zhao Han in advance?

    Fei Ruhe's strategic goal is to occupy Huai'an, and then besiege the Yan army with Zhang Tieniu.

    Now that the Salt Army has surrendered, change the combat objective.

    Zhang Tieniu's army dispersed to suppress the bandits, but many small salt troops were still resisting.

    Fei Ruhe crossed the Huaihe River and captured the entire Huai'an Mansion, which is equivalent to capturing the entire northern Jiangsu area near the sea.

    There is no need to fight Huai'an Fucheng, this is Xu Ying's base camp!

    ? On the other hand, Li Zheng and Xiao Zongxian encountered fiercer resistance along the way

    "Is this guy crazy? He doesn't want to surrender." Li Zheng was quite surprised.

    Xiao Zongxian laughed and said: "Others have an army of 200,000, we have only 7,500 regular soldiers, and less than 10,000 civilian husbands. Naturally, we will not surrender easily."

    What they were talking about was Gu Zongrui, an unknown character.

    The Cao army and Cao people along the Grand Canal revolted, and all rebels were wiped out, but Gu Zongrui continued to grow.  And he still has a territory in Shandong, entrenched in Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and fought back and forth with Zuo Liangyu.

    This guy has 200,000 soldiers, claiming 800,000, and he is resolutely unwilling to surrender to the Datong Army.

    On the contrary, there were thousands of officers and soldiers guarding Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum, and they immediately surrendered when they saw the Datong Army.

    "Commander, Bandit Zhao's soldiers are here!"

    "Don't be afraid, follow me to fight!"

    Not only did Gu Zongrui dare to fight against the Datong army, but he also didn't defend the city, leading more than 100,000 people to fight out.

    All of these rebel troops wore red scarves on their heads.

    Among them is a force of thousands of people, dressed in fancy dress.  There are quite a few monks in the army, who are neither Buddha nor Dao, they are like Buddha and Dao, and they hold magical artifacts in their hands to pretend to be gods and ghosts.

    Zheng Pan, the missionary officer next to Li Zheng, held up the binoculars and exclaimed: "These are all members of the White Lotus Cult!"

    Xu Ying's news is obviously lagging behind, the Shandong Cao Army has merged with the White Lotus Sect.  Xu Ying knew that there was a White Lotus Sect in Yanzhou, but she didn't know that the leader of the Cao Army joined the Sect and became the leader of the White Lotus Sect.

    &nbsThe scattered formation continued to charge.

    Such an outrageous Christian army can easily beat the master to death with random punches.

    "Circular array!"

    Seeing this, Li Zheng shouted.

    Nearly 10,000 civil servants, civilian and artillery units shrank in the center, and 4,000 melee soldiers were outside, forming a circle with the help of grain transport vehicles.

    Two thousand gunfire soldiers lined up in front.

    "Fire the gun!"

    In this case, dare not shoot in bursts, and shoot all the two thousand firecrackers.

    After shooting, the firecrackers rushed back to the formation, and temporarily converted to spearmen with bayonets, hiding behind the rattan players and waiting for an opportunity to stab.

    The volley of gunfire just now caused several troops to collapse.

    At this moment, about 20,000 to 30,000 enemy troops have fled, and the remaining 100,000 or so are still charging, surrounding the circle of the Datong Army.

    There is a bird for a large number of people.

    On the periphery of the Datong Army's circular formation, there are many grain transport vehicles and luggage.  Even if they can cross these baggage, there are still long wolf traps blocking them.  Even if you can break through the wolf trap, there are still long spear formations.  Even if they rushed through the long spear array, there were still shields and waist knives from the rattan players, and the bayonets from the firecrackers.

    As for those religious bandits, there are at most five or six thousand who can really fight, and the remaining more than one hundred thousand are all blocked by their own people.

    The bandits who rushed to the front finally climbed over the obstacles of the baggage, and were smashed into a sieve by wolf sticks and spears in a blink of an eye.  Many people woke up from the frenzy, turned around and fled in fright, but were blocked by the friendly troops behind.

    Those bandits who were blocked on the periphery could only sleepwalk on the battlefield because they were unable to fight.  They rushed for three miles, and their bodies were weak. Many people sat down directly from exhaustion, and even collapsed because they lost their enthusiasm.

    Until now, the Datong Army has not suffered any casualties, because no bandits can break through the spear array.

    It's a pity that the Datong Army doesn't have enough cavalry, if it is equipped with a cavalry.  Killing from outside at this moment can immediately collapse the entire army of more than 100,000 enemies.

    The corpses around the circle piled up more and more, even filling up the obstacles.

    However, the Datong Army fought more and more easily, because the bandits who fought had collapsed and were fleeing in the opposite direction.  More bandits squeezed in, and the bandits inside and outside, their own people crowded their own people, which had already caused a stampede, and there were not many people fighting at all.

    Xiao Zongxian said: "Unload the bayonet, load the ammunition, hide behind the shield and shoot in salvo!"

    "Bang bang bang bang!"

    Two thousand firecrackers were fired at the target only a few meters apart, almost causing a group of people to fall down.

    The pressure from the outside squeezed in, squeezing the bandits inside, and thousands of bandits were trampled to death by their own people.  However, everything inside collapsed, and the screamers wanted to escape, but the bandits outside didn't know it.

    In the crowd, the bandits who had calmed down after rushing for three miles were all exhausted and huddled there unconsciously.

    Many people don't even know where the Datong Army is, because there are heads in all directions.

    Gu Zongrui and Dong Zhanrong, the two leaders, the emperor and the Buddha, were also squeezed into the crowd and could not move.

    Dong Zhanrong shouted: "I am Yanghuang Extreme Buddha, don't squeeze anymore. Alas ah!"

    Yanghuangji Buddha accidentally fell to the ground, probably due to insufficient cultivation of Buddhism, he was trampled to death by his followers.

    Finally, the bandits on the outermost perimeter felt bad, and more and more people fled in panic.

    During the escape, there was another stampede, and Gu Zongrui tripped over in a daze.  This Emperor Zhongxing Fulie also followed in the footsteps of Yanghuangji Buddha, leaving countless footprints on his body.

    "Toot toot toot toot toot toot toot~~~~~~"

    When the charge horn sounded, Datong soldiers attacked, and even civilian husbands rushed out to help capture the prisoners.

    "Alas!"

    A Datong soldier stepped on the corpse and accidentally sprained his foot, becoming the only wounded of our side in the entire battle.
