In the third year of Tianfu's reign in the Later Jin Dynasty, Chenzhou was starved to death. When Wang Xiaode was digging sweet potatoes with his niece, he used a cellar of thick smoke to suffocate five Zhou soldiers, only to find that the refugees were looting the food and grass - he raised his knife and beheaded those who hid it, and established military regulations with blood: "Thirty percent of what was seized goes to the people, and any offender will be killed!"
This sword split the chaos of the Five Dynasties! Shi Ting, a female general from the previous dynasty, brought cavalry tactics to the battlefield. Wang Zhong, a lame veteran, established a ten-forbidden military rule. Chen Hui, a scholar from Nanyang, created a stepped reward and punishment system. A female soldier who can even lift a hundred kilograms of stone can become a cavalry captain. They used Sweet Potato Cellars as a stronghold, relying on rolling stones to break the rear and cavalry to attack the camp. 30 People dared to defeat 500 Zhou soldiers, and suffered 12 casualties and annihilated 200 enemies!
Different from the historically weak Song Dynasty, this team had civilian officials in charge of food but not military power, and the generals had real power in training troops. A three-stone crossbow shot through the Mobei Iron Cavalry, a ten-foot-long tower ship crossed the Huaihe River, and the number of caravans from the Western Regions reached a hundred. From the cave dwellings in Wagangzhai to the Jinluan Palace in Kaifeng, Wang Xiaode used the military exemption to calm the people's hearts, and gathered talents with the same knowledge and skills, and finally formed a super empire that reached Mobei in the north and Congling in the west.
There is no money for peace here, only the iron-blooded declaration that "everything the sun and moon shine upon is Song soil"!
