A cottage owner smiled bitterly: "Yes, if it is a battle, I am afraid that my brothers will have to give their 'lives' in vain, but if it is surrendered, I am afraid that he will not fulfill his promise." ”

Qiu Yi suddenly said: "I don't think everyone's concerns are necessary. ”

Han Fei couldn't help but wonder, "Brother Qiu, what does this mean?"

Qiu Yi had already been instructed by Fang Ling, and said with a slight smile: "Don't you think that we have already escaped death once? With the six hundred soldiers and horses of the King of Shicheng just now, it is not difficult to kill all of us here, right? The King of Shicheng led the troops away like this, I am afraid that we will be convinced. Moreover, if the King of Stone City is sincere in recruiting us and is not guilty of what we have done before, then he will definitely post a notice in the three counties before we surrender and make this matter public. And as soon as this notice comes out, it is equivalent to a golden mouth, and if he repents after the fact, isn't it tantamount to not believing in his words? Therefore, as long as the notice is posted, it means that he is indeed sincere. ”

Everyone suddenly opened up when they heard this, Han Fei slapped his palm, and laughed: "Brother Qiu is worthy of being a head catcher, and he knows a lot about the government. If the king of Shicheng is really sincere to us, then Lao Tzu is not uncommon with this king of the mountain, who is about to get moldy in the mountains all day long, in fact, what I want to do most is to be a soldier, how majestic. King Shicheng also said just now that as long as he has talent, he will reuse it, if this is true, how can I get a county lieutenant to be a pawn!"

"Hey, then I'm going to be my old job, a pig slaughterer, and when the time comes, everyone will come to buy meat, and I can be cheaper. A cottage owner laughed.

Everyone laughed and talked about their future careers.

Qiu Yi couldn't help but secretly admire Fang Ling, the trouble of bandits for so many years was easy for the young King of Shicheng to manage, his eyes fell on Shen Huantian, strode over, and asked, "Brother Shen, what do you think?"

Shen Huantian only withdrew his gaze from a distance at this time, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a deep smile and said: "Of course I, Shen Huantian, am willing to gamble and lose, and I also want to see how much ability this Shicheng King still has!"

Qiu Yi frowned slightly, Shen Huantian was like a fierce tiger, to tame such a person, if his strength was not enough, the tiger tamer would die under the tiger's minions. However, he felt strangely that he didn't have half a point in his heart, just because the wisdom and strength shown by the young Shicheng King were too amazing, although the tiger was powerful, how could it be the opponent of the dragon?

As Qiu Yi said, on the second day, the three places of Feng County had already posted a notice, announcing the recruitment of the "mysterious" Wushan bandits, and what was written on the notice was the same as what the King of Shicheng promised, pardoning all the crimes that the bandits had done before, and all those who surrendered, they would be registered in Feng County, and the people of Feng County would be given the same treatment.

Although there are some objections, most people believe that although these bandits robbed money, they have not done the evil act of killing people and setting fires, which shows that they have a good conscience, and if the thieves surrender, the people of the three counties can go up to the mountains to hunt, and there is one more livelihood for the people.

Immediately afterwards, the people and horses of the major cottages rushed to Feng County under the leadership of their village owners and surrendered outside Feng County. Of course, all the materials, stocks, gold and silver looted by the cottage were confiscated in the county treasury. Starting

At the same time, Fang Ling ordered another notice to be posted, informing the merchants of the surrounding counties that those who had been robbed by bandits and had a record in each county could go to Feng County with the certificate issued by the county, and the Feng County Government would return the goods in a certain proportion according to the materials.

Because a lot of materials have been consumed, and the merchants who have been robbed over the years don't know how many, so each merchant can get not much silver taels or materials, but this news is enough to make the merchants in the surrounding counties get psychological comfort, and this is also the effect that Fang Ling wants to achieve.

The total number of bandits in the sixteen cottages has reached nearly 2,000 people, the number is not small, Fangling specially set aside a piece of land in the north of the county to build new houses, shops, etc., at the same time, according to the bandits' employment application, for the bandits who are willing to engage in fishing, horse training, planting, etc., can live in Xihe County and Maling County, and accept the management of the local county government.

Although public opinion has subsided, the influx of such a large number of bandits still brings some uneasiness to the people, and at this time, the second group of people from the Xi Kingdom has also arrived, with a number of three hundred.

Therefore, in order to appease the people, and in order to allow the people of Xi Kingdom to better integrate into the world three hundred years later, Fang Ling sent the people of the Six Hundred Xi Kingdom to the three counties and gave them the task of managing public security in the county.

In this way, the total number of county soldiers in each county reached 500, which was enough to deal with any situation in the city, and at the same time, in order to further stabilize the bandits, Fang Ling ordered the appointment of Qiu Yi as the chief catcher of the three counties, and Hou Ding as the deputy chief catcher, and issued a strict order to severely punish anyone who violated the law and discipline.

Although Qiu Yi's cottage is not the largest, Qiu Yi's prestige is no less than that of Shen Huantian, seeing that Fang Ling did what he said, and let Qiu Yi sit on such a high official position, the thieves are also gearing up one by one, vowing to make a career.

After half a month, the streets where the bandits lived gradually became lively, the people were harmonious, and there were no major conflicts. Moreover, after knowing that many of the bandits were forced to fall into the grass because of life, everyone also felt a little empathy, after all, the three counties were also under the oppression of the wang clan in the past, and some of the thieves were actually the people of the three counties, so after slowly getting along, life became harmonious.

At the same time, Fang Ling summoned Shen Huantian and other cottage owners, and with the help of everyone, perfected the topographic map of the 'misty' Foggy Mountain, and at the same time determined six avenues that could connect the counties of the outside world.

Next, Fang Ling announced a new recruitment plan, regardless of county nationality, to recruit a total of 600 county soldiers, as promised before, capable bandits can also participate in the recruitment, in fact, many of these 600 county soldiers are bandits, and Han Fei has successfully become a soldier.

The 600 county soldiers recruited were sent to the six mountain roads of the "Misty" Foggy Mountains to garrison to protect the past merchants, and they had lived on the mountains for more than ten years, and the bandits who were extremely familiar with the terrain of the "Mysterious" Foggy Mountains were just where they could be used.

As a result, the avenues entering the three counties of the fiefdom are not only one Gukou Avenue, but have increased to seven, and almost all merchants from the counties around the "Mysterious" Foggy Mountains can choose the nearest mountain avenue to enter. Moreover, since the return of the "misty" foggy mountain bandits, the merchants have naturally lost their previous ones, not only have they brought more goods, but also the number of merchants has increased.

With the influx of a large number of merchants into the three counties, coupled with a variety of preferential policies, also attracted a lot of foreign talents, just because of the crackdown on the power of the three counties and have retreated from the rapid economic development, Feng County's iron products are no longer limited to the shops in Gukou County, there are special shops in Feng County to sell, through the merchants will be the goods "radiation" to a wider and farther place. (Initial launch, domain name (remember _ three.)

Under Shen Huantian's design, the three counties began to rebuild, whether it was a road or a county seat, they all built preliminary fortifications, and at the same time, sentry posts and cottages were also built on both sides of each of the six mountain roads of the "Misty" Foggy Mountain, as a pass into the three counties, until this time, the three counties and every place in the "Misty" Foggy Mountain were truly unified in the hands of Fang Ling.

Due to the fact that there are no bandits in the "misty" foggy mountains, and the defenders of the six avenues, even if there are a small group of bandits who have not yet been subdued, they do not dare to make waves, and they will either surrender victoriously, or transfer to other counties and townships, and do not dare to stay in the "misty" foggy mountains.

As a result, the people of the three counties were free to go up to the mountains to hunt and collect "medicine", so animal skins, animal meat, animal bones, "medicine" materials, and even mountain spring water could be used to make wine, and the "misty" foggy mountain was like a treasure, making the people richer and richer.

Fang Ling handed over almost all the daily affairs to Chen Mou to deal with, he just listened to the report, or went to the city to walk, listen to the people's livelihood, the people for this approachable Shicheng King from the bottom of their hearts, the prestige and name of the Shicheng King is like the sky, whether it is to punish the Wang clan or to subdue the bandits, they are all rendered by the merchants and passed to every corner of the earth.

And most of the time, Fang Ling was nested in the kitchen, refining Pei Yuan Dan and Hun Tie Dan day and night, not for anything else, just because he wanted to cultivate a guard team with strong strength.

Dong Canghai, Lu Bei and others selected a hundred young men with strong physique and excellent roots and bones among the county soldiers. Of course, the number of Pei Yuan Dan and Hun Tie Dan is not enough for each person to take one, and each person is only one of the ten people who take it, around this, coupled with the training of Dong Canghai and others, these young people are growing at a very fast speed, and at the same time, Dong Canghai has also successfully broken through the Rigid Force Realm and become the second master of the Melting Qi Realm in the fiefdom, and his real strength is also above Shen Huantian.

Of course, Fang Ling did not forget one thing, that is, the bandits of the Shilong Mountain Range, if they want to make the fiefdom truly stable, the bandits of the Shilong Mountain Range must be eliminated, so the spying on the Shilong Mountain Range has been carried out secretly since the subduing of the "misty" foggy mountain bandits.
