I rested for half an hour after dinner, and it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. Zeng Yu led the men and horses from the camp under the leadership of Gude to the camp on the top of the mountain.

Zeng Yu and the others walked in front, and Wang Qing led the soldiers to carry the grain and grass and wait behind, relatively slowly. After walking for nearly three hours, Zeng Yu and the others crossed Canglong Ridge and came to the place where Wang Qing led people to resist Lu Meng and them in the past.

By this time the camp had been further expanded to accommodate a thousand men and horses, and was built to be more fortified. Most of Goode's men and horses were stationed and trained here in order to defend. As for the camp under the mountain, after Pei Yuanshao's men arrived half a month ago, Gude led half of the men and horses to build it.

By this time it was completely dark, and the soldiers were carrying torches. Zeng Yu and others looked at the inside of the camp through the firelight, and they could see that it was carefully designed, whether it was the layout of the barracks, or the setting of fences and arrow towers, it was conducive to defending the attack in the direction of Canglongling. As for the direction leading to the camp at the top of the mountain, the gate has been widened, so that if there are many people attacking from the place, it will be more convenient for the camp on the top of the mountain to come to support.

Originally, Zhou Cang and the others were still worried about Wang Qing asking Gude to lead people to stay in Jinniu Mountain, but they first saw the layout of the camp under the mountain, and then saw the setting of the second camp here, so that they knew that Gude was really talented and hardworking, and they couldn't help but glance at this young ancient capital who looked polite.

Zeng Yu saw this camp and knew that Gude had worked hard. However, he saw that it was getting late, and some of the soldiers who were transporting were tired from the journey, and it was not convenient to transport at night. He asked the soldiers to leave their baggage here in the camp, and everyone only brought their weapons and other weapons, and rushed to the camp on the top of the mountain lightly.

The soldiers were very happy to hear Zeng Yu's order, especially the soldiers in the reserves, who had been in charge of transportation, working harder than others, although they did not complain in the middle, but they were indeed more tired than others.

Goode asked the men and horses who remained in the camp to take care of the baggage, and someone would come to transport it the next day. Then all of them went to the camp on the top of the hill.

Nearly an hour later, the crowd came to the camp at the top of the hill. At this time, the brazier in the camp had already been lit, and the entire camp was illuminated as during the day, which was done by Pei Yuanshao before going down the mountain to inform the people who stayed here.

Entering through the gate, there is a large school field, which is enough to accommodate at least 8,000 people for training, which is specially prepared for the soldiers under Wang Qing's command. Next to the school yard are rows of neat barracks, which, at a cursory glance, are enough for at least 8,000 people.

When Wang Qing and his soldiers saw this place, their hearts suddenly became excited, they had only stayed on the top of Jinniu Mountain for two days and one night, and they didn't look closely, they were worried that it would be more crowded here, but they didn't expect to have such a large school field and barracks.

Pei Yuanshao saw the reaction of Wang Qing and the others, and said with a smile: "Ziwu, how is it here, I deliberately flattened the mountain bags here at the top of the mountain according to the request of the lord, and then built it, which is enough for you to train the soldiers under your command." Even if the number of people under your command increases several times in the future, it can still be used. ”

"It's just right here, it can completely meet my requirements, Lao Pei, you did a good job." Wang Qing naturally replied happily.

"Ziwu, you first arrange for the soldiers under your command to go to the barracks to rest. Tomorrow, as before, the training will be carried out as planned, and the combat effectiveness of the cottage will be rapidly improved. Zeng Yu said to Wang Qing.

"Yes! All the people of the battle sequence, follow me. After Wang Qing saluted Zeng Yu, he shouted to the soldiers under his command, including the sixty-seven people who were classified as his personal soldiers today.

Zeng Yu and the others continued to walk towards the camp under the leadership of Pei Yuanshao, and soon came to the center of the camp. What they saw was first a mansion made of stones, and next to the mansion, there were also attics, which were prepared for the high-ranking people of Jinniu Mountain, and the central mansion was used as Zeng Yu's residence and meeting hall.

Pei Yuanshao introduced to everyone that the stones used in the construction were left after the previous houses in Jinniuzhai were demolished, and if the soldiers were asked to go to the mountains to quarry stones to build, it would take too long. It just so happened that the houses before Jinniuzhai were all built of stone, so they were built with the materials that were originally demolished.

Everyone suggested that Zeng Yu go to rest first, and let Pei Yuanshao lead the other soldiers to their respective barracks. But Zeng Yu said that he didn't see the soldiers go to their respective barracks, how could he take the lead in resting. Let Pei Yuanshao continue to lead the way, and go to the barracks built for reserve soldiers first.

At this time, the barracks of the reservists were only built enough for more than 1,000 people to live, mainly because it was too late, but the original number of reservists was not much now, only more than 1,300 people, and they were still able to live. They could also organize soldiers to mine stones later and then continue to expand.

Zeng Yu asked the centurion of the reserve team to lead the men and horses under his command to select a barracks to settle in, and then he himself and Pei Yuanshao walked to the workshop east of them.

When they came to the workshop, before they entered the workshop, they saw a checkpoint built by the mountain, which was built by Pei Yuanshao according to Zeng Yu's request. Zeng Yu knew that the workshop was the most important place in the cottage in addition to the central core area, which contained the manufacture of armor and weapons in Jinniu Mountain, as well as the research of related processes, and must be strictly protected, so the level built at the entrance of the workshop.

When the level comes out from the eyes of the entire mountain, the whole is piled up with huge stone slabs, and it can be completely done in one place. After the level, a large piece is cut from the mountain, forming a large platform surrounded by mountains on two sides and a cliff on the other. On the platform was a large strip of buildings, and on the other side was a barracks. The long strip of building was the workshop, which could accommodate at least 500 people at the same time, and the barracks were the resting places for the soldiers of the workshop, relatively close to the cliff.

Li Hu and the hundred apprentices of the workshop, seeing such a place, felt that Zeng Yu valued them, not to mention the checkpoints that only they had, from the barracks built of stone, they were better than those of other soldiers.

Zeng Yu said to Li Hu: "Li Hu, I hope that the workshop can become a strong backing for our Jinniu Mountain soldiers, your task is better than anyone else, the armor and weapons of the soldiers are their second life, you must show the highest enthusiasm, to create the most sophisticated weapons and armor." ”

"Don't worry, my subordinates will do their best for the cottage." Li Hu said excitedly.

"Well, I'll leave it to you here, just find Zhou Cang if you have something in the future, and he will satisfy you." Zeng Yu said to him.

"Yes!" After speaking, Li Hu led the apprentices of the workshop excitedly towards the area of the barracks.

"Zhou Cang, if there are any requests from the workshop, you will give priority to meeting them. I plan to go down the mountain in a few days, and then the Taurus Mountain will be handed over to you, and you have to coordinate all aspects to make the Taurus Mountain expand faster. Zeng Yu watched Li Hu and them walk into the barracks, and when they walked back to their residence, he said to Zhou Cang, who was following him.

"Lord, don't worry, your subordinates will swear to complete the task." Zhou Cang replied.

"Big brother, won't you stay in Jinniu Mountain for a while?" Sun Hao heard that Zeng Yu would leave in a few days, so he asked Zeng Yu.

"Zijin, the county magistrate of Anping County has reached the age of Zhishi very early, I am afraid that there will be many dreams at night, so it is better to determine things as soon as possible. And it takes time for us to go to Luoyang, and it is estimated that half a year has passed since we came and went. The county side also needs to be dealt with, and it may be a year after it is processed. According to the time, we only have about two years to prepare, so I have to start as soon as possible, and I can have a better chance of winning a day earlier. Zeng Yu explained to Sun Hao.

"Big brother, then take care of yourself, there are us here in Jinniu Mountain, you can rest assured, if things don't go well in the county, come back, without an official identity, we can also play a piece of the world." Sun Hao's tone was a little heavy, after a month together, they will be separated again, and the next time they get together, it may be a year or two.

"Be happy, Zijin still doesn't believe me." Zeng Yu comforted Sun Hao.

"I'm worried about my eldest brother's safety, when I was in Anping County, I heard Zhang Fuguang say that now there is a bandit in Anyi, Hanoi County, who often attacks passing merchants, and the government has sent troops to clear it several times, but they have escaped. As soon as the officers and soldiers left, they came out again to commit crimes. Lord, you go to Luoyang, and it is the fastest to go to Anyi, so I am really a little worried. Sun Hao replied with a smile.

"Zijin, don't worry, I have Chengyong and a hundred personal soldiers, and ordinary bandits will not attack us, if the other party has a lot of people and Chengyong to protect me, I can also survive safely." Zeng Yu said.

"Yes, with me Zhu Wen here, I will definitely not let the bandits hurt the lord." Zhu Wen also spoke up.

"Then big brother, be careful all the way!" Sun Hao knew that he couldn't stop it, so he could only let Zeng Yu be careful.

"Don't worry, it's okay, we still have big things to do, how can we give up something, everyone can rest assured, it will make me happier if you bless me more." Zeng Yu said lightly.

Others then congratulated Zeng Yu one after another, wishing him all the best and being able to return to Anping County as soon as possible to take office. Several people chatted with each other about something, and after about half an hour, they returned to the center of the camp, Zeng Yu naturally stayed in the middle mansion under the escort of Zhu Wen's personal soldiers, and the other Zhou Cang and Sun Hao, Li Li and others also had their own rooms. It is worth mentioning that Li Li and the others are also temporarily living in Zeng Yu's mansion. Because Zeng Yu asked Pei Yuanshao to build the house in the center was built according to the number of people currently arranged, except that the house was the office of Zhou Cang and Sun Hao, he was afraid that the time would be too late, Pei Yuanshao had built too many of their houses, so he had no time to build them for the soldiers. But it's okay, anyway, Zeng Yu's mansion is relatively large, so it is naturally more than enough to live, and there is a small barracks next to the mansion, which is for the soldiers to rest.

There was no word all night, except for the patrolling soldiers, the other soldiers quickly fell asleep, and when they woke up tomorrow, the whole Jinniu Mountain would begin to enter a new track, and everything might move forward according to the established plan. Of course, if there is any accident, it depends on how they deal with it, but for everyone now, whether it is Zeng Yu or every soldier below, they are full of longing for the future, and in many dreams, they have returned home.
