Chapter 1404: Building a Territory

After entering Bin'an County, everyone was a little suspicious that there was something wrong with their eyes, a dilapidated and dilapidated county town, just standing alone in the dense grass. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When I came forward, the county was completely deserted, and the weeds, trees, and wild mice and lone foxes completely occupied the county.

If it weren't for the vaguely recognizable name on the gate, I'm afraid no one would know what this place was.

"This Hamashore Prefecture is too weird, isn't it? Even the county seat is deserted? Dio said with a frown.

Zhou Wen nodded in approval: "Yes, this place is also very desolate, right?" Since entering the scope of Bin'an County, we haven't been able to see a single person all the way, so how can we find Xiaoyu Village? ”

Zhao Hu said with a smile: "About 100 kilometers east from Bin'an County is Shaji Town, and more than 30 kilometers east of Shaji Town is Xiaoyu Village. ”

"But if Sandmark Town and Little Fish Village are deserted, how can we find them? They are no match for cities, and once they are deserted, they can't even find a ruin. Sun Jie said worriedly.

Zhao Hu smiled again: "I don't know if you have noticed, even if the county seat has been abandoned, the main road from the county government to the county seat still exists, and this main road still continues forward." ”

Hearing Zhao Hu's words, everyone looked underground. Sure enough, a thick dirt road led into the distance, and although most of it was covered by weeds, the traces of the carriage passing through it were very obvious.

Sun Jie squatted down to inspect the grass roots that were crushed in front of him, looked up and said, "These grass roots were crushed a week ago at most, that is, a large number of horse-drawn carriages passed by this road a week ago. ”

Dio immediately said to Zhao Hu: "My lord, it seems that someone is secretly transporting through this road, otherwise no matter how poor he is, there will not be a situation where there is no one in the whole county." ”

Zhao Hu just shook his head helplessly but didn't say anything, what did you ask him to say? Just to accept the territory of a major officer, it provokes the highest civil and military officials in a province, and such an unfortunate thing actually comes to the door by himself, which is really a headache.

Seeing Zhao Hu's expression, Dio knew that Zhao Hu knew what he knew, so he stopped talking, Dio didn't believe that the other party dared to send a regular army to eliminate his own people, if they mobilized bandits, two or three thousand people really wouldn't fall into the eyes of those who had been in battle for a long time.

Anyway, if you don't offend, you can offend, so you can do a good job, and maybe you can make a huge contribution.

Sun Jie asked a little confused: "Who is secretly transporting here, the other party is really powerful, he can actually empty the entire county." ”

"Stupid! This is all about it, it must be the provincial governor and the head of the garrison division, you don't know the content of the meeting between the adults and them, why are you so brainless? Zhou Wen hated that iron could not be made of steel, and knocked on Sun Jie's head and scolded.

"Woo, eldest sister, don't fight, I just didn't think about it for a while, and if I hit me again, I will really become a stupid Sun Jie, who covered his head, wailed while dodging. Seeing this scene, everyone laughed.

Dio, who restrained his smile, suggested to Zhao Hu: "My lord, since this is the case, then we should be careful and send scouts around, right?" ”

Zhao Hu had just nodded, and the black wolf who was following Zhao Hu immediately roared and ran out first.

Seeing that the black wolf disappeared in a blink of an eye, Dio couldn't help but say, "My lord, this black wolf is really the best scout in this dense jungle environment." ”

Zhao Hu and his entourage knew the current situation, the servant soldiers entered the state as soon as possible, and they began to disperse around to guard forward, only the one hundred and twenty-five guards who had just been received, and they were still a little ignorant and didn't know what to do, of course, it was just a bit of a resemblance, if it wasn't for the fact that they had been trained from the imperial capital to the present, I am afraid that even this resemblance would not exist.

I don't know what's going on, maybe it's because Zhao Hu's appearance was prepared in advance, Zhao Hu didn't encounter any situation along the way, and after calculating that the distance should probably arrive at the place where the sand trace town should be reached, after careful searching, he really found a destroyed town foundation.

Knowing that he was not going in the wrong direction, he continued eastward.

As it entered the twilight hours, it took more time than the search for the town to finally find the remaining foundations of the village in the half-human-high grass.

"My lord, this should be Xiaoyu Village." Dio said.

"It's not certain yet. According to the governor of the province, three kilometers ahead is the seaside, and there is a fishing village near the sea, and we will not be able to confirm it until tomorrow's investigation, so we can't be caught. Zhao Hu said with a smile.

"Yes, if you can't see it in the sky now, send someone to investigate, and if you gallop three kilometers on horseback, you will be able to go back and forth in a while." Dio asked.

"No, everyone is a little tired, let's wait for tomorrow, let's go out together." Zhao Hu said.

"Yes, then camp now?" Dio asked Zhao Hu for instructions, got permission, and immediately commanded.

Although Zhao Hu said that he was not sure, everyone already regarded this place as Zhao Hu's territory in their hearts, so they immediately started the work that they had not done when they set up camp before, and began to investigate how the camp should be built while shoveling grass and roots.

After dinner, everyone went to bed early, and everyone longed for tomorrow to come. So as soon as the sky dawned, everyone was already ready.

Zhao Hu left the new guards and most of the servant soldiers, only brought five guards and two hundred servant soldiers, and rode to the east, and the black wolf and Liu Bin also followed curiously.

As the horses galloped, everyone could feel the sun as if it was rising in front of their eyes, the sun's rays appeared in the distance, and the ground also emitted a dazzling dazzling light, this scene made everyone understand that the sea horizon was ahead, otherwise it would be impossible to see this scenery.

When the sun rises and no longer shines on people's eyes, everyone only feels that the white sand and turquoise color and the vast sea surface immediately appear in front of them, and a fishy sea breeze gently caresses everyone's faces.

Everyone who had never seen the sea before was speechless, and their hearts were immersed in this vast view.

Not to mention that everyone is relaxed, even the black wolf, the steppe wolf, is also squinting comfortably and enjoying it.

Only Liu Bin, a person who came across the ocean from the East, looked emotional.

Zhao Hu, who was the first to wake up, woke everyone up with a dry cough, and everyone looked around at the environment.

"Huh! Look, my lord, there are strange traces of the beach here. The active Sun Jie soon discovered the strange, followed Sun Jie's guidance, and found that the beach washed by the waves was very strangely out of the line with dozens of small pits arranged in two equidistant rows, which extended into the sea.

Dio and the others didn't know what was going on, but Liu Bin said loudly: "There was a simple pier here, although after the pillars were removed, the other party carefully filled in the sand, but because it was not filled, the horse's feet were exposed under the washing of the waves. ”

Dio was surprised and said, "The humble docks? Smuggle?! ”

Liu Bin nodded: "It should be like this, otherwise there is no way to explain the strange situation along the way." ”

Zhao Hu was a little puzzled: "Is there a lot of profit from smuggling?" ”

Dio said with a serious face: "The profits are amazing, this is close to the Free Alliance, because the two countries are hostile, some in-demand goods will be heavily taxed, smuggling will not have to pay taxes, and some goods that are forbidden to be sold can bring huge profits." Cutting off people's wealth is greater than killing their father and taking their wife, and it seems that we are in big trouble this time. ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhao Hu a little nervously, but seeing Zhao Hu's indifferent smile, their mood settled down somehow.

The head of the servant soldier is relatively simple, anyway, it is just a matter of fighting according to the master's orders, nothing remarkable.

And the guards began to fantasize, how to use this opportunity to let the adults get great feats, after many bloody battles, they have long been no longer concerned about what enemy is not the enemy, the big deal is just death, what is this?

Among so many people, only Liu Bin is still worried, because among so many people, he may be the only one who understands how much energy a huge smuggling gang has, but seeing everyone's looks, he can't deliberately exaggerate, according to his understanding of Zhao Hu's gang, it seems that they don't despise their opponents, since this is the case, then take one step at a time.

Dio also quickly put his worries aside, and suddenly remembered something, and said to Zhao Hu excitedly: "My lord, the area of your territory is ten kilometers long and wide, and there is no provision to be centered on Xiaoyu Village, that is to say, we can divide the territory from this seaside, through Xiaoyu Village, ten kilometers to the west, and five kilometers to the north and five kilometers to the south from Xiaoyu Village." ”

As soon as Zhao Hu heard this, he understood that Dior's division was tantamount to completely taking over this smuggling wharf.

According to the habits of the smuggling gangs, this wharf must be the most convenient and best route for the smuggling gangs.

Zhao Hu's habit is that people don't offend me. I don't offend anyone, but now it's not that he took the initiative to cause trouble, after all, this is indeed his territory, it should be someone else who offended him, and he lazily guessed whether the enemy he provoked this time was Zhao Hu who provoked himself, and directly handed over the management of the territory to Dior.

Dio was immediately excited, and the shouting command cavalry began to enclose the land, which was very simple, that is, a sign was erected at the border of the surrounding area at a distance of a few hundred meters, and the sign was written with bright words: "Zhao Hu, the territory of the major of the Imperial Army." ”
