Just when Zhang Luo was thinking about it, the three of them had already arrived at the military camp in the west of the city, but Qu Shuai Wuhuan, who was in charge of personnel transfer, listened to Zhang Luo's words, and he replied with a smile: "This matter has been ordered by the father-in-law." also specifically asked me to make sure to make up for Zhang Jun's candidates. I have prepared 500 brothers and handed them over to the army. ”

Zhang was slightly taken aback at this time, according to the system of the Taiping Dao troops, he originally had fifty subordinates, and he only needed to supplement four hundred and fifty people to be full. In his current form, he didn't expect much of a replenishment of his own, and he was satisfied with two hundred.

With 500 people, Zhang Luo's original 49 subordinates were naturally under Zhang Luo's continued command, and with the newly added 500 people, Zhang Luo's troops had already been organized. In Taiping Dao, the subordinates are basically led by officers all the time. In other words, Zhang Luo's forces suddenly increased tenfold. And unless Zhang Jiao ordered it, no one could deprive Zhang Liu's subordinates of it.

Zhang Luo immediately said excitedly while giving a salute: "This is so thankful for the father-in-law, thank you to Qu Shuai!" ”

According to the number of people, he will be a battalion commander in the next generation.

When I returned to my original station, I saw that the courtyard gate of the station was full of people. Bian Xi, Pei Yuanshao and others were greeting, but suddenly there were so many more people, let alone sitting, they didn't even have time to boil water.

Bian Xi is a local and quite clever, he saw that Zhang Luo was back, so he squeezed out of the crowd and said anxiously: "The team is ......, the army is waiting, there is a courtyard next to it, I have been to see it, there is no one over there." Why don't we go over there and greet our brothers now?" ”

"Have you eaten, brothers?" This is the issue that Zhang Luo is most concerned about.

"I haven't eaten yet." Bian Xi hurriedly replied.

was a little slower than Bian Xi, and Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang also squeezed over. There was a look of dissatisfaction in his expression, Pei Yuanshao said in a low voice: "Soldiers, these brothers ......"

Zhang Luo didn't want to listen to any nonsense, he interrupted Pei Yuanshao's words, "Don't talk nonsense first, you and Lao Bian beckoned the brothers to go to the courtyard next to them." Bring the guy who cooks and hurry up and let everyone eat. ”

"Wait!" Pei Yuanshao still wanted to say something.

Zhang Luo was also impatient now, "No matter what happens, eat the meal first!" ”

Seeing that Zhang Luo's attitude was tough, Pei Yuanshao had no choice but to obey orders.

Zhang Luo immediately stood on a high place and shouted, "Brothers, I am Zhang Luo!" The brothers of the family have not eaten yet. It's too crowded here, let's go to the big yard next to it, bury the pot to cook first, and then talk when we are full! ”

After speaking, Zhang Luo dragged Bian Xi and Pei Yuanshao to his side, "Brothers, you follow these two brothers first, and find a place to sit in the big courtyard first." I'm going to find someone to cook for everyone right now! ”

These three or four hundred people heard Zhang Luo's shouting and looked at Zhang Luo. There was a strange feeling of a strange boss in those eyes, and there was an indescribable depression. But when we heard about eating, everyone finally came to the next level. Bian Xi and Pei Yuanshao shouted and shouted, and finally led everyone away.

Zhang Luo entered the courtyard and found Liao Chun, who was in charge of logistics: "Chief Liao, you can take someone to cook now." Along the way, bring the jerky with you. ”

After listening to this, Liao Chun asked, "How much do you bring?" ”

"Take them all!" Zhang Luo replied.

In the big courtyard over there, Bian Xi was naturally in charge of entertaining, and seeing that he was busy like a fish in water, Zhang Luo admired it. However, Pei Yuanshao saw Zhang Luo rushing over with the logistics staff, and he greeted Zhang Luo from afar.

"Wait! Wrong with these brothers! It's not the old brother of Qingzhou. Pei Yuanshao finally found an opportunity to talk to Zhang Luo. It turned out that most of the brothers assigned to Zhang Luo's subordinates were soldiers of the Qingzhou Han Army-county soldiers, similar to the local security regiments of the later Republic of China.

"I see......" Zhang replied slowly.

He now roughly understands why Qu Shuai Wuhuan gave him so many soldiers so generously. Because there were many deserters during this time, especially the soldiers. After these things, many of the Han army's subordinate brothers made Wu Huan feel uneasy, and they just gave Zhang Luo a bunch.

"Soldiers, I'm afraid these people can't be trusted." Pei Yuanshao saw that Zhang Luo didn't care too much, and he said in a low voice.

This is Bian Xi also followed, and when he came to Zhang Luo's side, he said with a somewhat weak attitude: "Army... Army... Soldiers, I think these pawn brothers are reliable, because they will die if they run back. ”

"I think it's up to us whether it's reliable or not." Zhang Luo said to Pei and Bian, "If we can lead our brothers to win the battle and have fewer deaths, the brothers will naturally be reliable." It's been three or four months since they were besieged, and they really can't see the appearance of defeating the Han army, and the brothers don't have any other ideas, which is unreasonable. ”

This is a bit lenient and boundless, Pei Yuanshao immediately wanted to refute, but Zhang Luo stopped him: "Old Pei, now we are about to go out of the city to fight, and these brothers will go out to fight with us." When the time comes, what are you going to do? Can't tie them up? ”

Bian Xi listened to Zhang Luo's words very harshly, with Pei Yuanshao's temper, Bian Xi was afraid that Pei Yuanshao would immediately collide with Zhang Luo. Unexpectedly, Pei Yuanshao just sighed, "Junhou is right." ”

Zhang Luo finally said: "If you fight with your brothers, you must believe in others." If they do not believe, do not take them out. Alright, let's go eat! ”

took Pei Yuanshao and Bian Xi to the new brothers, Zhang Luo casually pulled a table and stood up, and said loudly to everyone in front of him:

"Brothers, I also just learned that some of the brothers of the original county soldiers ran away, and the new brothers who came to me are afraid that they will also be said something unpleasant. I would like to tell you first of all that even if there is a mistake, it is the fault of the brothers who ran away, and I can't see those brothers who have run away, and of course there is nothing I can do about them. If you are angry with our brothers who stayed behind and say something unpleasant to your brothers, wouldn't you be looking for the wrong person? The brothers think I'm right! ”

"Zhang Junhou is right!" Bian Xi immediately shouted.

And Pei Yuanshao actually shouted along with him: "That's right! ”

The brothers who were born in the county soldiers are not familiar with Zhang Luo, and they have heard a lot of complaining and even unpleasant words these days. Seeing Zhang Luo standing on the table, everyone still felt that Zhang Luo was going to say something powerful. Unexpectedly, Zhang Luo not only pierced the layer of window paper, but also made it clear that he trusted the brothers of the county soldiers, and this intimate word immediately made these brothers have a great impression of Zhang Luo.

Of course, good words can be said as soon as they touch the skin, and some brothers still suspect that the new boss will say something unpleasant, and they are afraid that it will be a matter of time or time.

After calming the emotions of the new brothers and letting the brothers of the old team express their attitudes, Zhang Luocai continued:

"Brothers, I am also from Qingzhou! It's from Plains County! From now on, everyone will fight together. You are all poor yourself, and Taiping Dao is to fight for the poor, but how can we just rely on a few of us to do it, we can do it together, if you don't participate, then even if you go back now, the other side is not going to kill you?! And to be oppressed!

Defeat the powerful and divide the fields, and plough the fields to have fields. The peace is the same from top to bottom, and there is no oppression. Let's fight and kill the enemy, it all depends on the concerted efforts of all brothers, and we will be closer than brothers in the future. Since everyone is here, needless to say, let's eat first. Eat first! ”

Liao Chun has been ordered to bury the pot and make rice, and the rice is still rice mixed with beans, and there are few dishes. But when each of the brothers saw a few slices of salted and roasted dried meat in the bowl, they were all happy, regardless of their original mood.

Eating meat is a very serious thing in these days, and it is very common to not eat meat once a year. Even if there is meat to eat, it is difficult for the people to make it good because of the lack of seasoning.

What's more, the public treasury of Taiping Road distributes food equally, and there is little meat and other food, which is distributed to the high-level, and the low-level brothers basically can't eat it. Zhang Luo is just a military candidate, even if he has meat, he can't share much. This time, every brother has meat to eat, and it can only be said that Zhang Luo has taken out all the good things he can come up with.

The new brothers hadn't eaten meat for a long time, so the anxious ones ate the meat first, and the less anxious ones ate several bites of rice first, and then chewed a small piece of meat on the slices of meat slowly, carefully tasting the aroma of salted and dried meat. The new brothers' worries about Zhang Luo have also been dissipated with Zhang Luo's hospitality.

Everyone is an old man, and I have heard too much about the scene and said too much. Mixing in the rivers and lakes, what you see is how to do it. Zhang Luo said what he should have said, and did what he should do. The brothers' opinion of Zhang Luo has gradually improved.

After entertaining the brothers for dinner, Zhang Luo did not continue to stay and speak. Some of the time to talk is that if you can't arrange a place to live now, some of the brothers will have to sleep outside at night.

The day after arranging the camp, Zhang Liang ordered:

"Zhang Junhou, last time you robbed the Han army's grain transportation team, if it weren't for the fact that you didn't have many soldiers and horses, you wouldn't have brought back only a thousand catties of capture. This time, in addition to your own people, I will give you another brother of Tun. I also hope that you can seize the grain and grass of the Han army again. If you can make a contribution, when you come back, I will mention you as Xiaoqu Shuai! ”
