Since it was a formal offer for employment, Liu Tao was not polite and proposed to pay the part of the iron as a deposit in advance. The reason is also very clear, that is, this road is dangerous, and it is necessary to create high-quality weapons and armor for the soldiers in advance to deal with it.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang discussed it, and finally nodded and agreed, and ordered someone to divide sixty percent of the iron and hand it over to Liu Tao. The latter smiled, asked Lu Yan to accept it, and then arranged for the craftsman to process it quickly.

I had to whisper in his ear: "Leave four hundred catties of the best quality iron to build weapons for the three of you!" ”

Lu Yan was very strange when he heard this, how could the weapons of the three of them not use more than four hundred catties!

However, since Liu Tao said so, he naturally nodded and agreed, and then went down to make arrangements. He said that he would transport the iron back to the city and give it to the blacksmith to make it, and there would be no delay in this matter. It can't be an ordinary blacksmith, you have to find a blacksmith under the command of the county lieutenant, the kind of blacksmith who is responsible for crafting weapons, otherwise it is just a waste of iron.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang also began to arrange the transfer of personnel and goods, and Zhang Fei was also responsible for sending the prisoners to the county seat and handing them over to the county lieutenant to deal with. With 3,000 yellow turban thieves, the county lieutenant will definitely be very happy, through this contact, Zhang Fei can be regarded as successfully hooking up with the county lieutenant, and after he leaves, it is estimated that he can help take care of the Zhang family.

"Speaking of which, this is the strong man who proposed to let the caravan avoid Lousang Village, right?" Liu Tao stayed, and almost immediately, he found the red-faced man in the crowd who was about to leave.

"Exactly!" The red-faced man did not deny it, nor did he evade it, but directly admitted it.

"Thank you this time, if it weren't for your suggestion, and at the same time fight a bloody way, I'm afraid that the caravan may not be able to break out of the encirclement and enter Lousang Village and wait for us to come to support...... By the way, I don't know the surname of the strong man? Liu Tao hurriedly thanked him.

"Exempt from your surname Guan, single name Yu, and the word cloud is long. Some time ago, I came to Youzhou, and when I encountered this caravan going through Zhuoxian, I thought that I would go too, so I was simply hired as an escort to escort the caravan south. Now when you encounter something, as a guard, you should contribute. Guan Yu replied casually, as if he didn't intend to take credit.

Sure enough, it's Guan Erye, that's right! Under the surface of Liu Tao's smile, his heart was very excited, and his heartbeat accelerated.

"Guan Zhuangshi has such skills, and he can be used as a guard." Liu Tao hurriedly said, "Our militia has just been formed, and there is a shortage of talents like strong men. I don't know, if the strong man is willing to join the militia, I can call the shots and hand over the sword and shield soldiers to the strong man to command! ”

The main thing is that he has just obtained fifty war horses, and Liu Tao plans to form a cavalry force of 50 people.

Escorting two people to Zhongshan County later, there were hundreds of war horses, considering the situation of one person and two horses, as well as the expansion of reconnaissance horses, the two hundred cavalry troops could be formed.

Zhang Fei went to command the cavalry, and the sword and shield soldiers were vacant, and Guan Yu happened to be in charge. In the future, it is necessary to recruit a person to command the archers, and at the same time find a deputy for Lu Yan to help command the baggage troops, and the grain officer also needs to make arrangements......

I suddenly found that my grass platform team was indeed very short of manpower.

"You and I met for the first time today, and you didn't even know who I was, so you entrusted me with such a heavy task?" Listening to Liu Tao's words, Guan Yu was stunned at first, and then smiled jokingly.

Yes, is this Guan Erye going to take the school exam himself? Liu Tao subconsciously doubted whether to pretend to be forced, feeling a little unable to control himself.

However, within the line of sight, there was a sudden entry into the figure of another person, a familiar figure that he did not want to see here. There's no way, you can only stay in the next time, and you have to fight quickly!

"First of all, Brother Guan, as a guard, can calmly judge the situation when he encounters an enemy attack, and does not leave the caravan to escape, which is not only the potential of the general, but also the righteousness. Secondly, Guanzhong killed and injured more than 30 people with the ring head knife, creating an opportunity for the team to transfer, which is a manifestation of strength; Finally, there is Brother Guan's body, force may be cultivated, but this body is an innate advantage! Liu Tao immediately explained.

Originally, I was going to pretend to be a magic stick, saying that everyone is destined to be connected by destiny and destined to become brothers with different surnames. Considering that someone is there, don't do that, so as not to worry about him.

Guan Yu was stunned, he didn't know that he was so good, and he was a little embarrassed to be said.

"Hmm...... I still need to think about it......" Guan Yu replied calmly, and his heart was actually moved.

"This can be ...... That's right! Liu Tao rarely met him, so he naturally wouldn't let go easily, "There will be a celebration banquet tonight, this battle, Brother Guan is also a hero, how about coming over and have a drink with us?" At the banquet, there will be wine fairy brewing! ”

"Goo Dong ......" Guan Yu subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and all the way over, he heard how mellow this wine fairy brew was. However, the starting price is actually ten times, this price is really unacceptable to him, and now he has the opportunity to taste it, and he is really unwilling to give up.

I could only cough lightly and said, "Okay, I'll go to ......."

In the end, Guan Yu, who has no career, is not so arrogant and reserved, and his materialism is still relatively strong. Later, when he became famous, it is estimated that he had to be cold in order to take care of his reputation.

But to Liu Tao, Guan Yu is now more flesh and blood.

arranged for Guan Yu to return to Zhuangzi with Zhang Fei, and Liu Tao knew that someone should face it or face it. Obviously, this year, I avoided contact with him as much as possible, but I didn't expect to meet him in the end.

"Brother clan, don't come unharmed?" Liu Tao doesn't plan to be passive, and at the same time, he doesn't want to be said to be unkind. After all, the clan brothers can ignore it, let alone the others. If this rumor spreads, it will not be good for him.

"Sure enough, it's a clan brother, I didn't expect Deran to have formed a militia after not seeing him for a year!" Liu Bei sighed that the latter had been stubborn in the past few years, and every time he saw his uncle, he had to listen to him complain a few words, saying how stubborn and ignorant Liu Tao was.

A year ago, it was even rumored that Liu Tao fell off the horse and went crazy for a month. As a result, after a year, depending on the situation, he actually got into a relationship with the head of the Zhang family, not to mention, and pulled Lu Yan, a junior brother, into the water. formed a militia group of thousands of people, and he was still the one who was Liu Bei, weaving mats and selling shoes......

is mixed with the name of 'filial son', and at the same time has a very good relationship with those rangers in Zhuo County. If something happens, call friends and friends, you can also call twenty or thirty people to help, but compared with Liu Tao, it is really not worth mentioning.

"I first talked to my righteous brother, that is, the Zhang family, and then listened to my brother's words about the Taiping Sect, thinking that the thieves might go north to Zhuo County, and even there might be yellow turban thieves in the local area to respond, so after the three of us discussed, we formed a militia group." Liu Tao smiled, "I don't know if the clan brother is interested, why don't you join in, and I will arrange a position for you?" ”

But in my heart I said, "Don't come!" Don't come! Don't come!!

If someone else dares to say that, Liu Bei can really go in with a cheeky face, but Liu Deran's invitation can't!

In the past few years, my uncle has been praising him for how good he is, and how bad Liu Tao is for him to disappoint. If in the end, I still have to throw myself into the command of this 'worse than myself' clansman, and my self-esteem really can't accept it!

"Thanks to the care of my brother, I still have a family to take care of, it's really not good to join the ......army," Liu Bei immediately replied with a smile.
