"Wengu, I remember that you are from Jingzhou, right?"

Liu Ximing asked Liang Yizhi.

Liang Yizhi looked at the scenery in front of him with a hint of sadness in his eyes, and sighed before replying: "Thank you young master for remembering, my subordinates are indeed from Jingzhou Mansion." ”

"Oh? Then why did you run to Sichuan and were framed by the enemy? ”

Liu Ximing had a little apology on his face, he had a good memory, but now there are thousands of people in the whole village who have been included in his list of reserve cadres, and it is rare to be able to memorize Liang Yizhi's nationality.

Liang Yizhi's old face turned red, and he didn't know what to say.

Li Biao slapped him on the shoulder with a bear paw, "Mr. Liang, you are all from our family, what is there to say in front of the second brother, could it be that you made a mistake in that aspect?" Hey. ”

Li Biao showed an obscene smile.

Liu Ximing flew up and kicked Li Biao's buttocks, so frightened that he hurriedly dodged.

"Do you think that everyone is like you, thinking about holding your daughter-in-law and having a baby every day?"

"No, my mother has been telling me for a long time, and my ears are almost calloused."

"Hahaha", the surrounding guards laughed.

Liu Ximing glanced around at the smiling faces of the teenagers around him, and hurriedly patted his head and laughed.

"Grass, blame me for this, as the so-called full man doesn't know that the hungry man is hungry, I arranged it, forgetting that you should also be of the age of marriage."

"That's it, don't worry, big guys, let's start arranging a collective blind date in the village after we go back, and we have to let our Longxiang Brigade pick them first."

"Hahaha, thank you, second brother."

Li Biao, Wei Jingguo and the others were all happy.

Liang Yizhi laughed for a while, and then made up his mind and said: "Young master, it's not that my subordinates want to hide it from you, it's really embarrassing, my subordinates were forced to be thieves because they were kidnapped by thieves, and they didn't dare to return to their hometowns after escaping." ”

That's what happened!

Liu Ximing suddenly smiled and said: "I think it's a big deal, this is naturally unforgivable in the eyes of outsiders, but there is no such thing in our family." ”

He turned around and pointed to the people around him and said with a smile: "This is either a homeless person or a thief, if they are all like Mr. Xiang, then everyone should do things." ”

The crowd burst into laughter again.

"After all, it is against the way of the sages", Liang Yizhi blushed and clenched his fists.

Liu Ximing waved his hand disappreciatively.

"The Tao is in the heart, and the court has no way, so the people of the world are uncovered, and the officials and gentry have no way, so the people and the army arrest and kill them. I heard that you are also quite serious about studying physical psychology, but you don't know these truths. ”

"In other words", Liu Ximing looked around vigilantly, "If the sky is really about to change, whether this thief can still be called a thief is another matter, what about the thief." ”

Not to mention, Liu Ximing's words really had an effect on Liang Yizhi.

He was worried that Liu Ximing would look at him differently so he concealed it so far, and it was the ideological propaganda of the Liu family that made him dare to speak out.

"If you come, you will be safe", Liu Ximing patted Liang Yizhi on the shoulder, pointing to the people who had already started to set up tents at the foot of the mountain and explained.

"As our family's first stronghold in Huguang, Wangjiaao is of great significance, since you are here, then you will be the first village chief and political commissar of the guard battalion in this Hanchuan Village."

"He is the battalion commander of the Hanchuan Village Guard Battalion."

Liu Ximing pointed to Wei Jingguo, who was on the side.

Wei Jingguo was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and his first reaction was to kneel down directly with a bitter face.

"Second brother, why do you want to drive me away, I don't want to be the battalion commander of this Laoshizi, I just want to follow you to escort."

"You ......"

Liu Xi tried to kick him again, but finally stopped.

"You bastard, do you want to kick you away, this is a chance for you to exercise, it is enough for Li Biao to be in the pro-guard regiment, you always have to go through the experience, and you can do more for me in the future."

"Drive you away, you fucking think too much", Liu Xi ordered Wei Jingguo to pull Wei Jingguo up from the ground.

When Wei Jingguo heard this, he smiled happily.

"Seriously, you can't lie to me."

Liu Ximing was a little helpless, "Do you want to pull a hook?" ”

"Roll"

Seeing that Wei Jingguo was really planning to come over and pull the hook, Liu Ximing laughed and scolded and kicked him away.

Speaking of which, Li Biao and Wei Jingguo are the people who have followed him the longest, and they are also the closest, after all, the pro-guard group follows him all day long.

"Continue what you just said", Liu Ximing looked at Liang Yizhi.

"Hanchuan Village is surrounded by water and mountains, although it is not on the main road, but it is inevitable that there will often be thieves coming, so the construction of the village is based on defense as the first priority."

"Huguang has Changheng business to cover us, their relationship is much stronger than ours, the surface of this city wall is still repaired according to the wooden wall, but the inside must be reinforced with stone slurry."

Wei Jingguo saw Liu Ximing looking at himself and Liang Yizhi on the side, he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly replied: "I know, I will repair according to the method of Liujia Village." ”

Liu Ximing nodded and told them the details of repairing the city one by one.

This time he's going to play something else.

How about building a fortress?

Anyway, the east side of Hanchuan Village is the Han River, and the west side of the mountain cannot deploy a large army, and only the north and south sides can attack.

According to Liu Ximing's plan, Hanchuan Village will be a strip-shaped city wall in the east and west, with two pointed parts protruding from the north and south.

The whole village is still in the same shape as Hanzhong, covering an area of about one square kilometer, which can basically meet the needs of the village.

"In the future, all the mountainous areas on both sides have been reclaimed into terraced fields, and our family's tea trees, sugarcane and other cash crops will be planted, and the food will still be sent from our families."

Liang Yizhi and Wei Jingguo and several others all nodded in understanding.

If you grow grain, the attraction to the thieves will be too great, and you are afraid that you will not be able to defend it by relying on such a few people in Hanchuan Village.

Anyway, with Liu Ximing, the captain of the transportation brigade, everyone is very relieved.

Liu Ximing rubbed his chin, "At present, there are more than 14,000 people in the village, and most of them are young and strong, so 3,000 people will be selected from it to be trained as an escort team, but the salary is only calculated at one or two silver per month, which is lower than that of the Long Xiang Brigade." ”

In this way, in addition to the 6,000 soldiers and horses recruited by Liujia Village before, the 100,000 displaced people in Shaanxi have to recruit 10,000 escorts, and the available strength of Liujia Village has reached nearly 20,000.

Fortunately, he scattered it in several state capitals, and Liu Ximing was happy in his heart.

At the beginning, he did not give Xun Bowen and Mu Jingnan and others the right to recruit troops in Hanzhong, but now the situation cannot catch up with the changes, so he has to rush to do so.

However, the economic lifeline of Hanchuan Village and Shaanxi is in his own hands, and without him, these places are only afraid of famine immediately.

Therefore, at this stage, he is relatively comfortable with his control.

Rao is like this, Liu Ximing still told a few people with a serious face: "It's still that way, the management personnel of each village will be arranged by Liujia Village, all escort teams must establish an ideological and political officer system, and the officers must be rotated. ”

"We will swear allegiance to the second brother to the death", Wei Jingguo took the lead, and Jiang Deshen, Yuan Baosong and other officers all patted their chests and shouted in a military salute.

Liu Ximing nodded at everyone with a smile on his face, but he was a little unimpressed in his heart.

Men don't care about loyalty, it's just that the weight of betrayal is too low, and women don't care about loyalty, it's just that the temptation from the outside world is not enough.

This is a wise saying that everyone understands in modern times.

His old comrade Liu has always fought to act according to this principle, the system is given priority, and those who can check and balance each other must arrange for mutual checks and balances.

Otherwise, how could he have thought of letting Shao Derong go to Cao Bianjiao to join the army when he arrived in Henan, instead of letting Mu Jingnan and Li Jingsi, the former Longxiang battalion officers, be in the army.

It's not because Shao Derong has a low seniority, and his prestige in the Longxiang Brigade is not as good as Yu Yongkai, Mu Jingnan and others.

In this way, even if Shao Derong has some fame in the army in the future, there will still be people in the Longxiang Brigade who can check and balance each other.

Is Lao Tzu thinking a little too much, Liu Ximing couldn't help but think nonsense.

He shook his head vigorously and threw it out of his mind.

"That's it, don't delay, Wengu, you take the lead, put everyone in groups and formations, we are all familiar with this set of things, and we will start construction from today."

"Whoa"

"Subordinates will do it"
