Two days later, Hu Dexing, with the assistance of Liu Juntao, cremated the remains of six fallen guards, and returned to Huakou Town with the ashes and the money and food given by Liu Juntao, together with Sun Xu, Meng Fanchen and other six subordinates.

Before leaving, Hu Dexing told Liu Juntao that in a few days, the 100 households in Huakou Town would send people to check the battlefield and check the merits, but these were just going through the motions, and the final result still depended on the documents he wrote, so there was no need to be too nervous.

However, Hu Dexing specially instructed Liu Juntao to give some benefits to the leading little flag officer to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Liu Juntao naturally understood these and immediately agreed.

After Hu Dexing and the others left, Liu Juntao began to prepare for the affairs of the escort team.

First of all, Liu Juntao asked Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu to gather all the people in the escort team, and then began to reorganize the 126 young men on the threshing floor.

In Liu Juntao's plan, these 126 young men will be divided into three sentinels, with themselves, Zhang Xiaojun, and Yan Hu each leading one outpost; There are two teams under each post, each team has 20 people, and there is a team leader; Each team has four troops, five people per team, and one team commander.

As a result, one hundred and twenty-six young men plus Liu Juntao, Zhang Xiaojun, and Yan Hu, a total of one hundred and twenty-nine people, happened to form the three sentinels.

Soon, according to Liu Juntao's idea, Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu began to reorganize everyone, after all, the two and all the young people are villagers in the township, and everyone almost knows each other, and it is more convenient to reorganize. Everyone is looking for someone to form a team, recommending someone you can trust to be the captain, and then Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu will form six teams of twenty-four soldiers, and the four captains in each team will publicly introduce a captain.

In the end, Liu Juntao, Zhang Xiaojun, and Yan Hu each led two teams to form three sentinels. In just half an hour, Liu Juntao and others completed the reorganization work.

Looking at the more than 100 people standing in line on the threshing floor, Liu Juntao's heart was excited, and he said secretly: "This is the capital of my start, and it is my brothers and comrades who will be rampant in the world in the future!" ”

Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu were also excited, both of them suddenly had a strange idea, from this moment on, their fate may have turned to another road, a more magnificent road!

Just when Zhang Xiaojun, Yan Hu and Zhong Qingzhuang were thinking about their hearts, Liu Juntao took out a thick piece of paper in front of everyone.

These stacks of papers are the result of Liu Juntao's hard work for several nights in the past few days, and the contents are all discipline regulations and combat rules formulated by Liu Juntao. Although these rules and codes are like the calligraphy written by Liu Juntao, they are very immature, but Liu Juntao firmly believes that in the future, these simple rules and codes will develop and grow together with the escort team, and become an iron law!

"Next, I would like to announce the discipline and combat rules of our Yushan Guard!"

Everyone was a little stunned when they heard this, they originally thought that joining the escort team was just like before, everyone walked around the queue and practiced spears together, but they didn't expect Liu Juntao to make so many rules to restrain everyone, and many people frowned.

Even Zhang Xiaojun frowned, and the expression on his face was obviously Liu Juntao's excessive move. Only Yan Hu's face does not change, anyway, as long as Liu Juntao says it, he will not oppose it, but will only resolutely support it.

Liu Juntao did not pay attention to the reactions of the crowd, but read aloud the eighteen disciplinary rules and twenty-one combat rules he had written.

After reading it, Liu Juntao said to everyone solemnly: "Today is a big day for our escort team, and it is the day when our escort team establishes rules and regulations!" You may think that I am making too much of a fuss, and there is no need to follow these rules in a village. ”

Liu Juntao paused after speaking, looked at everyone's expressions, and saw that everyone had a "original" expression, so he continued: "But I want to ask everyone, is our Yushan Collective Escort Team preparing to become a rabble, or an iron army?" If you want to become an iron army, you have to rely on these rules I have set! There are no rules, there are no rules, and without rules, our escort team can only be a team of caretakers after all, and there will be no good way out. However, if our escort force is strictly disciplined, strengthens training, and uses these rules and regulations to practice, it will grow into an invincible army! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaojun asked: "Big brother, even if we are trained according to the rules you set, and we are even stronger than the official army, but what can we do?" Where is our way out? Could it be that you still want to lead us to rebel? ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused a lot of young and strong side eyes, Yan Hu even glared at Zhang Xiaojun next to him, and muttered in a low voice: "What does the eldest brother say, let's just do it, what do you do so much!" ”

Liu Juntao was not annoyed at all, but laughed and said, "Haha! Good! Zhang Xiaojun asked right! ”

Liu Juntao saw that everyone was staring at him, and there was a trace of expectation on his face, after all, everyone had already felt that the mission of this Yushan Collective Guard was not only to protect the village, but also to have a greater mission!

"The current mission of my Yushan Guards is only to guard the village and protect our villagers from being oppressed. But I promise you: one day, I will take you out of the Yushan set, rampant in the world, and take a look at the great rivers and mountains of my Ming Dynasty! ”

Zhang Xiaojun only felt his blood boiling when he heard this, and immediately raised his arms and shouted: "Big brother, I believe in you!" ”

Yan Hu even shouted: "Big brother is mighty! ”

"Mighty! Mighty! ”

More than 120 young men also raised their arms and shouted at this time, and they all roared loudly, and the roar on the threshing floor suddenly shook the sky.

On the side, Guo Yongzhong and Zhang Baigui have been watching for a long time, both of them have solemn faces, and they don't know where Yushanji will go under the leadership and influence of Liu Juntao.

Among the onlookers, Guo Muying stared at Liu Juntao and saw his god, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Such a person is really extraordinary, and he will definitely make a difference in the future! I just don't know if Liu Juntao has ever been married? ”

Thinking of this, Guo Muying was suddenly startled, and then squeezed out of the crowd with a red face and ran towards Guo's house.

These were all seen by Tang Yu not far away, only to see Tang Yu sigh slightly, turned his head to look at the threshing floor, and the same worry as Guo Yongzhong appeared on his face.

On this day, everyone in the escort team started the first day of training under the encouragement of Liu Juntao.

After Liu Juntao explained the training plan he had formulated and answered everyone's questions, Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu led everyone to start training according to the training plan.

During the day, weight-bearing long-distance running, push-ups, stone locks and other events took turns to fight, which made 126 young people complain. This kind of training has far exceeded the previous training amount, and it is estimated that even the most elite battalion soldiers in the official army will not practice like this!

Zhang Xiaojun, who has always been known for his strength, felt a little unbearable, but seeing that Liu Juntao was also practicing with everyone, carrying a stone lock weighing more than 30 catties and constantly lifting it, he could only grit his teeth and insist, not daring to complain.

In the evening, Liu Juntao, who was sweating profusely, ordered the drill to end, and then gathered all the people of the escort team to line up at the threshing floor. At this time, everyone, including Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu, was already exhausted, standing there like a clump of straw, constantly swaying from side to side, and people couldn't help but worry that these 120 or so people would fall collectively at any time.

But even so, Liu Juntao is still not satisfied, thinking that today's training volume is still far from what he expected.

"Remember today! Because from today onwards, your drills will be harder and heavier! The most comfortable day for you was yesterday! ”

As soon as Liu Juntao's voice fell, everyone in the escort team suddenly wailed.

Although in the eyes of everyone, Liu Juntao's discipline standards were so strict that they were almost unkind, but when it was time for dinner, everyone in the escort team left the fatigue of the day behind.

I saw that on the threshing floor, Tang Yu had already led people to make more than a dozen tables of meals, although there were no delicacies from the mountains and seas, but there were also several dishes, and the white flour steamed buns were enough, which was already a delicacy that could only be eaten during the New Year's festival for all young people!

Seeing that everyone was salivating, Liu Juntao said with a smile: "I ask you to do your best in practice, and I will give you the best!" From this day forward, you will eat your daily meals in the threshing floor, one meat every five days, and one bowl of wine every ten days! ”

As soon as these words came out, all the young people suddenly thundered with joy, as if the fatigue in their bodies had disappeared.

Only Tang Yu was worried, according to Liu Juntao's flower method, the seized money and grain could not be supported for even two months, and then everyone would have only one way to disperse!

However, what Tang Yu didn't expect was that after dinner, Liu Juntao did not go back to the room to rest, but came to the blacksmith shop to find Zhang Baigui.

"What! Craft a sword, shield, and spear! Jun Tao, are you going to rebel! ”

After listening to Liu Juntao's intentions, Rao is Zhang Baigui was also taken aback by his well-informed knowledge.

This time, Liu Juntao was ready to ask Zhang Baigui to bring a few of his apprentices to create unified equipment for the escort team, and he also specially brought the drawings he had drawn.

But Liu Juntao didn't expect that he would scare Zhang Baigui.

Zhang Baigui calmed down and said patiently: "Jun Tao! Although the imperial court does not prohibit our people from carrying weapons and sharp blades, there is a limit! Ordinary bull head knives, short knives, machetes and so on, the government is too lazy to pay attention to them. But all these things you're going to build are going to lose your head! The government strictly prohibits people from carrying knives, shields, spears, halberds and other sharp weapons without permission! What the hell do you think? Why don't you make bows and crossbows, and armor! ”

Liu Juntao smiled and said, "The bow and crossbow are too time-consuming and labor-intensive, but I prefer firearms!" ”

"You!"

Zhang Baigui was suddenly so angry that his face turned red, and he was a little speechless.

Seeing this, Liu Juntao hurriedly apologized, and then said, "Master Zhang, if we don't arm ourselves, what's the use of just setting up a guard team?" It's like a tiger without teeth and claws, so it can only be slaughtered! Besides, which of those Haoqiang's families doesn't have swords, guns, swords, and halberds? Even bows and crossbows and armor will be available! If we are against such a strong man, what is the use of just relying on the wooden guns in our hands? ”

Zhang Baigui was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time.

Liu Juntao continued: "Master Zhang, the reason why those heroes are so fearless is not only because of their wealth, but more importantly, because of the economic system of the imperial court! ”

"The system of the imperial court?"

"The ancestral system set by Taizu: the government does not go to the countryside, and the county officials do not go to the city!"

Liu Juntao said with a smile: "Based on this, even if we build armor, it is a matter of not being held accountable by the people and not being held accountable!" ”

Zhang Baigui frowned and groaned for a long time, then suddenly looked up at Liu Juntao and asked, "Juntao, who are you?" How could there be such a big mind? ”
