Looking at the dignified and beautiful young woman in front of him, a touch of surprise flashed in Cheng Yanjin's eyes. After looking at it for a while, Cheng Biting Jin clenched his fists and said to the woman, "I didn't expect the famous mall owner to be a heroine, which really surprised Zaixia!" The gaffe just now also looks forward to the mall owner Haihan! ”

The mall owner smiled, "Cheng Gang Master is polite!" Seeing her look forward to the gentleness of a woman, Cheng Yanjin felt a little sorry in her heart, although this woman is beautiful and a capable woman, but unfortunately she is not the type she likes. Although there was a bit of an amazing feeling at the beginning of the meeting, it didn't make my heart move.

The owner of this shopping mall, whose full name is Shang Xiuxun, is the owner of a Pegasus ranch specializing in horses, with thousands of people and more than 800 horses, and is also the leading horse dealer in the Central Plains.

Cheng Yanjin was also introduced to this beautiful woman who did not let her eyebrows go. Originally, he thought that if he bought more than 300 horses at once this time, Pegasus Ranch would definitely send a person who could speak well, experienced and careful to negotiate business with him, but he didn't expect such a moving woman to come. What a joke, this mall owner thinks she's a woman, and he's embarrassed to bargain with her?

In the eyes of his Cheng Da gang leader, except for relatives and friends, no one will give face, even beauties are treated equally. After the two of them sat down, Cheng Biting Jin went straight in and began to discuss the purchase of war horses with the beautiful mall owner. It wasn't until the two began to fight over the price that Cheng Yanjin knew that he had underestimated the woman in front of him.

This Pegasus Ranch is a family inheritance industry, Cheng Yanjin thought that it was great that this mall owner could manage the ranch of thousands of people in an orderly manner, but he didn't expect this woman to be a veteran in price negotiations. Cheng Biting Jin desperately found a reason to lower the price, but was resolved one by one by the owner of the mall. As a result, in the end, the business was settled, and Cheng Yanjin did not spend much money less, so it can be said that the result was not as good as expected.

At this point, he has been convinced of the beautiful woman in front of him, no wonder such a big business The owner of the mall actually dared to go out in person, there is really no one who can raise the price more than her, no wonder the business of the Pegasus Ranch is booming, and the woman in front of him can sit firmly in the position of the owner, which is really powerful.

After nearly two months of recruitment, the total number of the Salt Gang suddenly broke through the 10,000 mark, reaching more than 13,000. Cheng Yanjin immediately issued an order to stop recruiting manpower, and then divided the more than 13,000 people into four parts, and stationed them in four places close to the main altar of the Salt Gang to carry out training.

These four parts are the Wind Division, the Benlei Division, the Sifang Division, and the Black Mountain Division. Among them, the Wind Division is mainly composed of cavalry. Cheng Yanjin gave all the 500 horses to the Hurricane Clan, and asked the Tang brothers, the leaders of this tribe, to use this as a basis to train a thousand sergeants who could fight on horseback in a short period of time.

Since the Tang brothers didn't know how to train the soldiers to fight immediately, Cheng Biting Jin couldn't, so he had to order the wind chimes of the Suzaku Hall to loot some veterans from the regular cavalry of the imperial court, and promised to pay them handsomely. These people had no choice but to stay behind and temporarily serve as instructors to start training the newcomers.

The Benlei Department can be said to be the fastest of the four parts under Cheng Yanjin to form combat effectiveness, and the personnel in this department are all composed of fishermen recruited along the coast. Because they have been fishing with spears along the coast since childhood, these people throw spears quickly and accurately.

After organizing these people into an independent group, it only took a few days for these former fishermen to be able to skillfully throw their spears into a demarcated area at the same time. Looking at the spears flying in the sky, Cheng Yanjin was both happy and worried.

The good thing is that the combat effectiveness of this Ben Lei Department is formed quickly, and the power should not be underestimated, but there are some worries that if you want this Ben Lei Department to show its might on the battlefield, you must customize a good spear for them.

After thinking about it for a while, Cheng gritted his teeth and took out another part of his private money and handed it over to several stewards of the Salt Gang's outer hall, asking them to search for blacksmiths, buy ores, and make good spears for the Benlei Department to use.

The Quartet is the most populous of the four parts. The combat personnel of this division are all infantry. Due to the large number of people, and the good and the bad are uneven, but when fighting a strong or protracted battle, the most important thing is to rely on this infantry.

In order to allow the infantry of the Quartet to move forward bravely and be invincible during the battle, Cheng Yanjin simply temporarily scattered the men and horses of the 'Sunset Return', except for the necessary personnel, all the fierce gods and evil spirits of the 'Sunset Return' went to the Quartet to serve as instructors, so as to cultivate the bloodiness of these people and improve their combat effectiveness.

Although the number of people in the Black Mountain Department is the smallest of the four parts, each of them is a first-class player in the rivers and lakes. Not only that, but these first-class masters are all masters who have stepped into martial arts and cultivated internal strength. As time passed, the combat effectiveness of these people also increased exponentially.

The reason why Cheng Yanjin gathered so many martial arts masters into one part was to use the powerful cultivation of these martial arts masters to perform important tasks such as killing the enemy's main generals, cutting off the enemy's military flag in the midst of chaos, and attacking the enemy's commander's tent, which were more dangerous but could affect the outcome of the war.

After adjusting all his subordinates, Cheng Yanjin began to urge the instructors in the four major divisions, asking them to use all their skills to make the soldiers in charge of each other form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, while he himself ran around the hidden places of the four divisions all day long, conducting supervision and inspection.

After two months of short training, Cheng Yanjin began to order the leaders of the four major tribes, asking them to lead their men and horses to take turns to go out in Zouping County at the foot of the Changbai Mountain, or attack the granary arsenal under the jurisdiction of the local government, or loot those who are rich and unkind, and leave all the looted materials for their own use.

In order not to expose the existence of the Salt Gang, when Cheng Yanjin ordered his subordinates to go out to make a name for themselves, it was carried out in the name of the 'Heroes Club'. Because now the world is in turmoil, anti-thieves are everywhere, and the government has spared no effort to clean it up. As long as there is a hint of something wrong, the imperial army will immediately kill the door.

If the Salt Gang recruits manpower like this, if it spreads, it will be a disaster, not to mention that he is surrounded and suppressed by the government, and it will also affect his relatives at home. At the beginning, Dou Jiande of Zhangnan, Nabei Prefecture, was arrested by the local government because the incident was not secret, and all the children of the family were arrested, and all the heads were cut off.

Although Dou Jiande later dismantled the official who killed his entire family, he could not save the lives of his entire family. This terrible mistake has already been taught by others, and Cheng Yanjin doesn't want to be stupid to make it again.

So when he first gathered people, Cheng Yanjin gave the name of the Hero Club, and then went out to make a name for himself with this name. There is no way to choose the location in Zouping County, although it is said that other places in Qingzhou can be visited, but Changbai Mountain is in Zouping County.

According to the Yan Gang's Zhuque Tang wind chimes, there are more than a dozen rebels against the imperial court in the entire Qingzhou, and these people have formulated an offensive and defensive alliance in order to resist the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court.

Although Liu Badao is in Douzihang, if Cheng Yanjin takes his men and horses to kill him, I am afraid that other rebels in Qingzhou will also rush to support Liu Badao. With Cheng biting Jin's current people, it will be very difficult to deal with Liu Badao's family, if he can still deal with the simultaneous attack of more than a dozen rebels.

Therefore, Cheng Yanjin came up with a tortuous and roundabout method, that is, to let his subordinates first make a name in Changbai Mountain to make a name for themselves, and then he went to Changbai Mountain in the name of this hero club and joined the rebel army.

In this way, this hero will also belong to a member of that alliance, and when the time comes, Cheng Biting Jin and then killing that Liu Badao will belong to the internal affairs of the alliance, not the foreign enemy officers and soldiers will commit, and the rebels from all walks of life will naturally not be able to interfere at that time.

Just when the name of the Heroes Club gradually became louder in Zouping County at the foot of Changbai Mountain, Cheng Yanjin was not idle, and explained all kinds of affairs clearly, Cheng Yanjin rode alone and came to the foot of Changbai Mountain. The purpose of his trip is to go to Changbai Mountain to explore, figure out the distribution of forces on the mountain, and by the way, touch the details here, if one day, he wants to occupy the mountain as the king, see if he can rob here.

Changbai Mountain is located in the south of Zouping and is named after the white clouds that often surround the top of the mountain. Its mountains are steep and uprooted, heavy mountains and mountains, stretching for dozens of kilometers, and have always been called "Mount Tai sub-mountain". The highest peak is the top of the Maha Summit, which was previously occupied by the men and horses of the king of Zhishiro. And others like Zuo Caixiang, Li Zitong, Zuo Junxing and others can be said to be attached to Wang Bo to make a living.

Dressed as a man who went into the mountains to collect medicine, Cheng Yanjin went up the mountain with a bamboo basket on his back. After wandering around this mountain for a few days, Cheng Yanjin also had a preliminary understanding of the forces of various cottages. Although this Changbai Mountain is not large, tens of thousands of people and horses have gathered on the mountain.

Cheng Biting Jin came to this Changbai Mountain relatively late, that Wang Bo was defeated by Zhang Xutuo as early as last year, or Cheng Biting Jin rescued to escape with a life, although this person is still active in Qingzhou, but there is a distance from this Changbai Mountain.

It's just that although Wang Bo left Changbai Mountain, the Maha Ding he occupied had already been emptied, but the other cottage leaders on Changbai Mountain would rather be empty than send people to occupy it.

These people are respecting Wang Bo's leading actions, and secondly, because the large and small rebel armies in Qingzhou are now the most powerful of Wang Bo, if they send someone to occupy here, if one day this Wang Bo is unhappy and brings someone to fight, then it will be miserable?

Looking at the empty Maha roof, Cheng Yanjin looked carefully for a while, and then slowly walked down the mountain. Others dare not occupy this Mahatop, but he dares, just because he is Wang Bo's life-saving benefactor, send someone to talk to that Wang Bo, and he will not be stingy if he thinks that Wang Bo.

What's more, there is an intangible advantage of occupying this place, that is, it makes the rebels from all walks of life in Qingzhou think that they are in the same group as Wang Bo, or even Wang Bo's subordinates, so that when he lets go of dealing with that Liu Badao, few people will dare to think of supporting him.

Walking halfway up the mountain, Cheng Biting Jin's ears moved, and he heard a familiar voice in the wind, "Brother Fu, why don't we go home!" We've been here for almost a year but we still haven't been reused, and that Taoist priest was only afraid that he had a misunderstanding of the Mandate of Heaven, otherwise with your and my skills, how could I be buried for so long! ”

"Brother Xian, don't worry, it's the pearl that will shine after all, although you and my brother are not getting ahead now, but this is just a temporary downfall! Wouldn't the virtuous brother hear that the sage Mencius has a cloud, "Therefore, the heavens will descend to the great task of people, and they must first be if their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically", and now the encounter between you and me is not just a confirmation of the words of the sages, just to get through this immediate difficulty, you and I will enter the phase, and the king and hegemony are just around the corner! ”

As the words got closer and closer, looking at the two figures walking not far away, Cheng Yanjin's face was strange, these two people were not Du Fuwei and his brother Fu Gongyi, who were they!
