Chapter 42 New Appointments

After collecting the corpses and mountain horses, Wu Gang also asked Wushuang to replace ten county soldiers and twenty township soldiers, five of which were county soldier squad leaders. By now, he had 15 empty seats and could send fifteen of his subordinates at any time.

Yulin County was tight, and he didn't want to draw too many county soldiers. Fortunately, the township soldiers with a combat strength of 25 can easily overthrow the elite of the old mountain bandits.

Local mountain horses can also be used, but they are not as good as the mountain horses of the real three worlds. Especially the wild horses in the mountains and forests, their speed and endurance are no worse than those of the northern war horses.

"The Mustang King!" County Lieutenant Huang couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly!

The horse's back is one meter seven, the horse's head is more than two meters tall, and the physique and weight are one size larger than the fine war horse.

There are a total of seven wild horses, one of which is a male wild horse king.

"Lord Wang Zhai and Lord Yang Zhai, the four of you are in charge of one person and one mountain horse, and the rest are left." Of course, King Ma must be from Wu Gang, and he will not give it to others.

"It's the young marshal!" Yang Squadron was a little disappointed, he thought that the young marshal only needed the king of horses.

The happiest thing was the Zhao squadron, whose combat effectiveness had been increased to 75, and he knew that one of the wild mountain horses left behind was his. With the improvement of intelligence, after training and fighting, their combat effectiveness has gradually improved. Of course, due to qualifications, the combat effectiveness of the captains is only about 100 at the highest.

Huang Xianwei also had a war horse before, which was taller than the wild mountain horse, but now he is satisfied with having a horse.

Wu Gang deliberately equipped the two guards with war horses, also so that they could keep up with their speed, he couldn't run on horseback, and the two guards slowly chased behind.

……

After a day of battle, the three forces of the real country gained a lot, and the county soldiers and township soldiers were very happy, but the leaders of their neighbors, Phoenix Mountain, did not have a trace of smile.

Let the old military master of Qi frown and said: "Village master, this group of defeated soldiers is afraid that tomorrow will engulf the western cottage!" At that time, I Phoenix Mountain will also be surrounded by them! ”

"They are so impatient!" The second master smiled bitterly!

Although they could not attack, they did not dare to descend again.

"Hmph, let them go! Now we also have 600 soldiers, and I am afraid that tomorrow another 1 or 200 strong men will come to vote. With the risk of Phoenix Mountain, even if there are thousands of them, they can't think of coming up. "The three masters are responsible for recruiting new people, and now that there are many copycats, he is no longer worried.

Jiang Hu smiled lightly and nodded: "Although our grain can only last for two months, I'm afraid that before a month, this group of defeated soldiers can only be defeated!" Now it is necessary to guard it strictly, even at night: the number of people must not be reduced. ”

"It's the owner of the village." Everyone also responded solemnly, and sticking to the cottage was their only way to live.

Everyone dispersed, and Jiang Hu also took Jiang Lin back to the backyard.

"Father, there are two more strange commanders in the defeated army, and their combat power is not lost to the second leader, I really don't know how many strong opponents they have!" Thinking of the battle two days ago, Jiang Lin was still not at ease!

In fact, Jiang Hu is not easy: there will be chaos after a long siege! If you really let these mountain bandits stay in the mountains for a month or two, I'm afraid I don't know how many disasters will happen!

"I'm afraid that the nearby rebels or gate lords support them! If they don't lack food, the cottage will be panicked in a month! ”

Ay! Zhuobian's Jiang Lian'er sighed and said, "Ah Dad, can't you go to the foot of the mountain?" I didn't see them attacking us! ”

"Nonsense, if you go to the checkpoint again, you are not allowed to go out of the yard!" Jiang Hu glared at his baby daughter angrily, and blamed himself for spoiling her!

Jiang Lian'er was taken aback, and quickly nodded: "Got it!" ”

After saying that, the girl also left angrily.

Jiang Lin smiled bitterly and shook his head, this girl didn't let them rest assured!

The Xishan water bandits occupy the mouth of the river, and each occupies a side of the mountain wall to establish a water village. The two groups of water bandits are fierce opponents, and no one can help anyone.

The water bandits didn't care about these poor haha cottages in Xishan, but the big move of the defeated army in Liaodong also attracted their attention.

The next day, Wugang continued to develop the army of snakes and rats, and the four commanders also began to bring 200 men each to conquer the western cottages.

Knowing that Phoenix Mountain would not rescue them, most of the mountain bandits chose to surrender, and some chose to flee or join Phoenix Mountain.

Before the sun set, except for Phoenix Mountain and the two groups of water bandits, the rest of the cottages, large and small, were all in charge of the captains of the True Three Worlds.

Wu Gang's speed was not slow, riding the king of mountain horses around to collect corpses or cubs, when the sun just set, the beasts of the entire West Mountain were plagued by him, and even the mosquitoes and ants were cleaned up and replaced by half.

Xishan is his base camp, and it is also a comfortable nest for his family, not even a mosquito can be spared. And one day, most of the insects and beasts in the entire West Mountain will be replaced.

In addition to the innumerable army of mosquitoes, there are now as many as 3,000 mountain rat soldiers, as well as hundreds of small and medium-sized beast soldiers such as wild beavers and wild cats. The venomous snakes also reached a thousand, all of which were two or three meters long poisonous snakes. There are also hundreds of large and small birds, all of which are juvenile birds and formed bird egg replacement, and after the bird soldiers become large-scale, the birds of Xishan are also fleeing to death.

After nightfall, the four commanders also rushed back to Leitou Mountain to report.

As soon as the young marshal arrived, the lord of Wang Zhai immediately said: "Young marshal, now we have a total of 1,200 sword soldiers, all of whom are young and strong between the ages of 17 and 35, and the remaining old and weak are probably more than 2,000!" Mostly children, women, and some old craftsmen. ”

Wu Gang also knew that there was no corpse harvest today, and now no one dared to resist them except Phoenix Mountain.

"The old and weak should also provide enough rice, but they must not be left idle! After that, there is no need to grow grain, just grow some melons, fruits and vegetables: the woman is responsible for logistics and planting, the craftsman is responsible for building utensils and repairing swords, and children over ten years old should also be properly trained, looking for literate ones to teach them, and if the husband is not enough or the understanding is poor, learn some crafts from the craftsmen. ”

"Honorable Young Marshal!" The Four Commanders had a headache, and it was really difficult for them to let them manage these chores!

Seeing their expressions, Wu Gang also knew that he was a little embarrassed by their martial artists.

"Wushuang, let the Chen Mansion come out to manage the civil affairs of Xishan!" Wu Gang didn't want to pay attention to these civil affairs, but fortunately, he still had a vacant seat.

"Honor the city lord." The elf sitting behind Wu Gang also immediately stood up.

Chen Fu was also startled, he was just lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep, but suddenly he saw the master.

Two minutes later, Chen Fu also digested the message from the elf: "Don't worry, young marshal, the affairs of Xishan are all handed over to your subordinates." ”

"Okay, we're relaxed now!" Squadron Yang couldn't help but laugh.

With the Chen Mansion in charge of Xishan, Wu Gang also began to officially accept his fate: "In the future, Chen Mansion will be the head of the Xishan Village, and the four of you from Captain Wang's Yang Squadron and Captain Li of Xixiangkou will be the deputy leaders of the five major commanders of Xishan." ”

"Young Marshal Xie." The Chen Mansion saluted excitedly, and thousands of people were led by him, which was comparable to the county order.

The four commanders also immediately received the order, but they were not as excited as the Chen Mansion.

When the new official took office, Chen Fu also began to express his opinion: "The plan set by the young marshal is very reasonable, but the population of Xishan is still small, especially the literati and craftsmen are very few!" We are not short of food, so it is better to recruit the displaced people from the surrounding areas into the mountains, as long as the number of people does not exceed 20,000, we can easily supply them. ”

Wu Gang also intends to take in the displaced people, but he plans to kill the water bandits and Phoenix Mountain.

"It's okay, but don't recruit a large number of displaced people first, and then draw out manpower to recruit on a large scale when Xishan is completely subdued."

Chen Fu nodded: "Honorable order, it should be like this." ”
