The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had no military pay. Families who were conscripted as soldiers were generally exempted from corvee service. After retirement, they could also be given priority to obtain land distribution. If they died in battle, they would be inherited by their descendants and exempt from renting and transfer. The price was that the soldiers' equipment must be provided by themselves, and the travel expenses for the round-trip service were also paid by themselves.

Of course, the emperor was not short of starving soldiers. Although the Tang Dynasty's soldiers had no military pay, they had food, salt and tea supplies. The Tang Dynasty's treatment of the soldiers was actually quite good. Although there was no military pay to get, in fact, every soldier could save a certain amount of food and salt from the army and subsidize the family income.

Taking the Dingyuan Army as an example, the Dingbian Army is a border army system. Each soldier eclipses six liters of rice per day (about six kilograms), about twenty-two shi per year, three liters of salt per month, and three dou and six liters per year. Each of the clothes is silk, hemp, and silk (silk, that is, silk from the Han Dynasty, was mostly used as rewards, gifts, or currency) for each horse. In addition to these common materials, there are also wine, meat, tea and other materials to reward the army. The expenditure of each soldier is about eight cents per year.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the consumption of horses. War horses not only eat grass, but they will not gain weight by eating grass alone. They need to add grain. According to customization, a war horse consumes three stones and three dou of grain per month, and each horse will eat nearly forty stones of grain a year. This is a very huge number. Chen Ying has more than 40,000 war horses, and he will eat 1.6 million stones of grain a year, which is about three times the amount of food.

Just one war horse is enough to bankrupt Chen Yingchi.

Chen Ying thought about it and decided not to reduce the staffing, but to increase the staffing. Dingyuan Army still protected six Zhechong Mansions, but each Zhechong Mansion was added to each Zhechong Mansion. This Ranger serves as scouts, alert, and messaging functions, and the Rangers were set up from the Shengjie Army.

In this way, the 36th Regiment of the Sixth Deeds of the Dingyuan Army, the first Zhechong Mansion was led by Zhang Huaiwei, the commander of the Zhechong Commander, and the five infantry and cavalry were under the jurisdiction of the five regiments. The entire mansion had more than 1,800 people, more than 400 war horses and more than 200 horses were taken.

The second Zhechong Prefecture, Liang Zan, was under the jurisdiction of the Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth and Thirty-two Regiments, with a total of six regiments, with more than 1,08 people in his troops, and more than 600 war horses and horses.

Liu Tong, the commander of the third Zhechong Du, has the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th and 33rd Regiments, a total of more than 1,800 soldiers, more than 400 war horses, and more than 200 horses,

The fourth Zhechong Prefecture Duan Zhigan, the commander of Zhechong Prefecture, was under the jurisdiction of the 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, and 34th regiments, with more than 1,08 people, and more than 600 horses and horses.

The fifth Zhechong Prefecture Zhang Shigui, the commander of the Zhechong Prefecture, was under his command of the 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th and 35th regiments, with more than 1,800 war horses and horses.

The sixth Zhechong Prefecture Luo Shixin, the commander of the Zhechong Prefecture, has the 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, 30th and 36th regiments. The entire regiment has more than 1,800 people and more than 3,400 war horses.

In this way, after Dingyuan's army reduced its horses, there were still more than 5,400 war horses and more than 1,000 horses left.

Chen Ying transferred six regiments from the Shengjie Army to more than 1,800 troops, and then dismissed some of the elderly and weak. In fact, there were many Turkic people. They were not just killing machines. The war-weariness that arises in their hearts was ultimately boring and spontaneous thoughts. Perhaps after a period of time, the martial arts in their bones were more profound and pure.

Zhang Chi was good at managing military supplies, which was also a reduction in expenditure. Chen Ying allowed some soldiers to return to the local area, participate in local affairs, or return home to farm. He did not force them to be assigned to the auxiliary soldiers, which was also a goal of integrating troops with the people. Chen Yingze voluntarily abandoned his troops and followed the people, and Chen Yingze was placed near Lingwu and used their strengths to artificially plant alfalfa.

Chen Ying followed these surrendered Turkic soldiers to retract into six palaces of the Lingwu Army, and Yu Guni was appointed as the chief supervisor of the Lingwu Army, Chen Jinyong and Ashinasmo were appointed as the deputy chief supervisor of the army.

After the layoff, the Lingwu Army had more than 9,000 people from six palaces, with a total of 15,000 cavalry and more than 13,000 war horses. Chen Ying transported more than 13,000 war horses to Chang'an, and the others were rewarded to the soldiers of the entire army or sold.

As for the people rescued from the Turks, if relatives can join, Chen Ying is willing to send travel expenses and money. If he really has no place to go, he stays in Lingzhou and waits for resettlement.

For the people stranded in Lingzhou, after compiling households, Chen Ying found that there were more than 57,000 people. Among them, there were more than 41,000 women, less than 8,000 men, and the rest were young children. In fact, it was a very troublesome problem because these more than 57,000 people, less than one percent of the complete family, were mostly lonely and helpless.

In fact, they are not really lonely and helpless. Chen Ying also knew the real situation. The main reason was that these people were captured to the Turks, and some were forced to give birth to children for the Turks. Even if they had a family, they would have no face to go back.

If these women are not dealt with properly, there will be big problems. Chen Ying looked at Xu Jingzong at a loss.

Xu Jingzong said: "This matter is simple, then you will be alone!"

A husband without a wife is called a widow, and a woman without a husband is called a widow. He takes widowed and widowed and harmonious, and gives land and houses and family members. This is called unity and unity. The so-called unity and unity means using official media to compulsory marriages for widowed widowers and widows who have lost their husbands. This is a method that had to be taken in ancient times for population breeding.

Chen Ying was actually very resistant to this behavior in his heart. He was still pursuing free love and marriage. He tried to ask: "After the Lingzhou War, the strong men in Lingzhou were seriously damaged, and the ratio of men and women had already been out of order. It is probably difficult to do so in harmony and independence!"

Xu Jingzong said: "The people of Lingzhou are not enough, why not order these women to unite with the soldiers of Dingyuan? Jingzong once inquired that most of the soldiers of Dingyuan are single, why not order these women to unite with the soldiers and then open up wastelands and give them land, without constant property or perseverance."

When Chen Ying heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. He was the only one who could rescue the people, including the Turks. These Turks died in battle, but their families did not suffer much loss. There were nearly 20,000 Turkic women of the age of the Turks.

Chen Ying said: "That's fine. The soldiers of the entire army will choose one after another according to the size of their military merits. One wife and one concubine! Each person will be given sixty acres of military land, one wife and twenty acres of concubines!"

Xu Jingzong quickly wrote a note, and Chen Ying continued: "In addition to the independent people, ten households are as armored, ten Jias are as forts, ten Jias are as forts, ten Forts are as towns, and towns are as mayors. Lingzhou Bogulu Canal has several towns, and the army has ordered the extra horses, grain, and seeds to help them reclaim wasteland."
