Han Khan

Chapter 154, Inventory

The next morning, when the sun had just risen and the earth was still shrouded in the morning light, Zhang Xibao, Luo Wenda and Hailat had already arrived at Zhang Sheng's tent on horseback.

They were fully dressed in armor and looked heroic. As soon as they dismounted from their horses, they hurried towards His Highness's golden tent.

After they opened the curtain and entered the tent, they saw that it was already full of people. Zhang Sheng, Zhang Zhongxian, Zhang Jinda, Zhang Anzuo, Li Shaozong, Boniek, Timur, Hunziji, Hunziying, Zhang Langjieri, Yin Shanxiong and others were already kneeling on both sides of the palace.

Seeing the three people coming, Zhang Sheng waved to them and signaled them to come in quickly.

At this time, the scenery outside the tent was also unique. The Jinshan Mountain in the distance was shrouded in a thick layer of fog, the top of the mountain was towering into the clouds, and the middle of the mountain was covered with white snow.

Because the Great Lakes Basin is located between the East and West Sayan Mountains, the Jinshan Mountains and the Yanran Mountains, these mountains act like a barrier to block the cold air currents and violent winds and snow, making the climate here relatively mild.

Therefore, compared with other areas in Mobei, the environment in the Temple Camp is relatively warm.

The three men walked up to Zhang Sheng and saw that he was wearing a brown fur round hat (tumak), a black, knee-length robe with narrow sleeves, and a brown mink fur coat to keep him warm. He looked very majestic.

The three of them knelt on the ground in the tent, crossed their arms, bowed and saluted Zhang Sheng, saying:
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you!"

Zhang Sheng smiled and said:
"Three great heroes, please take your seats quickly. Have the slaves and tribesmen been settled?"

Zhang Xibao hurriedly said:
"I don't deserve it. Everything Jinhan has today was achieved under your leadership. I am honored to have served you loyally.

All the troops have been arranged, but the prisoners of war have not yet been reorganized!"

Zhang Sheng heard this, nodded and said:
"In this battle against the Ubili people and the defeated Dubo tribe, all the generals who participated in the battle have made outstanding contributions. I will reward you and all the soldiers who participated in the battle with slaves and livestock as I did in the past."

His voice was steady and powerful, which made the accountant happy.

Then, Zhang Sheng continued:
"The remaining prisoners of war will be selected according to the old method to fill the vacancies in each hundred households. Then, together with the captives of the Dubo tribe, they will be reorganized into ten households, hundred households and battalions. Soldiers who have made meritorious contributions will serve as the leaders of the ten households, hundred households and battalions."

This means that soldiers who perform well will have the opportunity to be promoted and become leaders in the army, while prisoners of war can be reorganized and utilized.

Finally, Zhang Sheng emphasized: "At the same time, the soldiers who participated in the battle with me and Brigade Commander Zhang Xibao and made achievements should be promoted.

If they were originally slaves, they would be promoted to subject citizens. If they were originally subject citizens, they would be promoted to middle-class or upper-class households according to the amount of their property and slaves.

If they were originally from a high-class family and made military achievements in this battle, they would be promoted to samurai. The samurai who made military achievements would be promoted to sergeant, sergeant, and so on, step by step! The titles of samurai and above would be conferred by me personally. "

This decision is a great encouragement to every participant. Their efforts and courage will be rewarded, not only in terms of material rewards, but also in terms of an improvement in their status in Jinhan.

These words made the generals present excited. They knew that their efforts would be recognized and rewarded. It also inspired them to participate more actively in future battles.

Zhang Sheng immediately continued:
“So now, Zhang Langjieri, Timur, Hailat, Luo Wenda and other group leaders!”

"I'm here!" When they heard His Highness calling their names, several people quickly stood up, bowed and responded.

"You are the leaders of the various regiments under Jin Han. You lead your troops and fight bravely. To reward your merits, I now inherit the position of the leader of the Jin Han tribe and grant you the position of sergeant, which will be hereditary. If you make merits again, you will be rewarded." Zhang Sheng said.

After hearing Zhang Sheng's words, several people excitedly said:
"Haotian is our witness. We thank Your Highness and are willing to swear allegiance to Your Highness until death!" Zhang Sheng nodded with a smile, and then continued in a majestic voice:
"Hun Ziji and Hun Ziying, you two brothers fought bravely and fearlessly, and were ready to die. You are famous warriors in our Jinhan army.

In order to reward your outstanding achievements, I have decided to grant you the title of sergeant, which will be hereditary and passed down forever.

In addition, I have specially granted you the position of regiment leader, allowing you to lead a regiment of troops respectively.

These tribesmen can be selected from the prisoners of war from the Dubo and Ubili tribes.

As for the battalion, centurion, and ten-household officers under the regiment, you will select and appoint them. I hope you can continue to work hard and make new achievements! "

Hun Ziji and Hun Ziying were so excited that their eyes were moist. They knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Highness! We two brothers will do our best to serve Jin Han!"

Zhang Sheng nodded with satisfaction, and said as he swept his eyes over everyone, "You are all pillars of Jinhan. We will face more challenges in the future. I hope everyone will unite as one and work together for the prosperity of Jinhan."

Everyone shouted in unison: "Follow your highness's instructions!"

The atmosphere in the tent was warm and the morale was high. Zhang Sheng looked at the group of loyal and brave generals in front of him, and his heart was full of confidence and expectation. He knew that with their joint efforts, Jinhan would surely usher in a more glorious future.

Zhang Sheng's decision reflected his encouragement to the Jinhan warriors and injected new vitality into the entire Jinhan tribe.

Then he added:
"Treasurer Zhang Anzuo, when we divide up the prisoners of war and reward them with livestock and other valuables, you should lead your servants to count them first, and select the leatherworkers, blacksmiths, and bowsmiths, and then divide them up.

Grand Minister of Justice Zhang Anzuo, you lead the judicial officers and supervise the reorganization of the troops. "

"We obey your order!" Zhang Jinda, Zhang Anzuo and Li Shaozong said with a bow.

Then everyone started to get busy. Today they had to select and group all the prisoners, and distribute the livestock and slaves.

He ordered the soldiers to gather the Ubili people and reorganize them into hundred households, battalions and regiments.

After some prisoners of war were assigned to soldiers as slaves, all the remaining prisoners of war from the Dubo and Ubili tribes were reorganized into 7200 slave households, that is, 72 hundred households, 24 battalions, and 8 regiments.

Today's Jin Han has grown a lot stronger. From the original four guards regiments, a priest camp, Han camp, blacksmith camp, judicial hundred households, and six ordinary regiments, there are about 10,000 households in the tribe.

Together with the regiment led by Commander Yan deployed in Tannu Mountain and 13 newly reorganized forest tribe camps, there were more than troops.

Together with the eight newly formed regiments and 7200 registered slave households, the Jinhan tribe now had more than members. If we calculate that there were four or five people in each household, there were almost members.

This does not include the nearly 6,000 accounts of door slaves assigned to soldiers and officers of all levels.

If we add in the gate slaves who serve the Jin Han soldiers and officers, the entire Jin Han tribe has a population of nearly 150,000.

There are now millions of livestock, including cattle, sheep, horses, camels, reindeer, etc.

I don’t know how the left wing led by Koza is doing!
