Chapter Ninety-Nine: Victory Returns Home with Many Affairs
Fish Hill Collection.
When Liu Juntao led Chen Ziping's troops to the outside of the village, Guo Yongzhong, Zhang Baigui, Gao Ran, Guo Muying, Zhou Zongsheng, and Liu Zi'an had already led a group of people to wait for a long time.
Even the villagers in the village heard that Liu Juntao had returned victorious, and they rushed to the gate with the old and the young to greet them.
Hu Dexing looked at the people outside the village, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said to Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen beside him: "It's not easy! Our Yushan set has become a general trend, and from now on, it can be rampant in Yanzhou Mansion! ”
After everyone stopped on the official road, Liu Juntao took the lead in dismounting and was about to step forward to talk to everyone.
At this time, Guo Muying had already run over with red eyes, looked at it carefully, and after making sure that Liu Juntao was intact, he put his mind at ease and said: You are back!
After speaking, Guo Muying ran back to the crowd with a red face, and Liu Juntao didn't have time to say a word.
However, at this time, Liu Juntao's heart was warm, and he stepped forward and said to Guo Yongzhong and others: "In this battle, we have won the battle in Yushanji!" ”
Suddenly, everyone present cheered, especially Liu Zi'an in the crowd, who was even more excited and burst into tears, his revenge was finally avenged!
After entering the village, Liu Juntao called everyone to a meeting at home, ready to deal with the accumulated affairs.
At the meeting, Liu Juntao said to Gao Ran: "Now we have captured more than 600 young people of the Chen family and more than 400 horse team riders, I will hand over these people to you, and I must train them for me in a month!" At the same time, discover some available talent too! ”
Gao Ran clenched his fists and took his life.
"How's the training of the two thousand newly recruited young people?"
"It's still a matter of practice."
"Mix two groups of people together and practice, remember, a month!"
Gao Ran said loudly: "Order! ”
After that, Liu Juntao said to Zhang Baigui: "The two thousand newly recruited young and strong soldiers should also be prepared in advance!" ”
Zhang Baigui also responded, and said, "It's almost ready." ”
At this time, Liu Juntao remembered another thing, so he asked: "Master Zhang, the War Bureau has been built, how is the progress of various affairs now?" ”
"Jun Tao, now the bowl mouth gun is still being imitated, because there is no experience, so the progress is not too fast; However, now that the steel has been trained in several furnaces, the War Bureau has some stock, and is now preparing to use it to build armor. ”
Liu Juntao nodded, and said to Guo Yongzhong: "Master Guo, the preparations for spring plowing next year should also be done in advance." ”
"I made a note that the Ministry of Civil Affairs will not delay the agricultural time."
At this time, Liu Zi'an said with a stern expression: "Mr. Lian, Mr. Zhang Qian (Zhang Xiaojun), and Mr. Yan Qian (Yan Hu) have all sent news, and now the spies of the Kong family have been discovered in Yushan Yanchi and Anshan Town, and the two places have entered a state of martial law. ”
Hearing this, Liu Juntao suddenly became alert and said: "Send a message to Zhang Xiaojun and Yan Hu immediately, telling them: All the spies of the Kong family are detained, and none of them are allowed to be released!" ”
"Mr. Lian, do you need to execute these spies? It may be better to make an example of each other. At the same time, it can also let the Kong family know that our Yushanji is not a soft persimmon, and let them know that they can't go too far. ”
Although Liu Zi'an's suggestion is very reasonable, Liu Juntao didn't want to have a conflict with the Kong family in advance before digesting the dividends of the Chen family, so he said: "Don't make trouble for the time being, detain people first, and see the situation!" ”
Liu Zi'an nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Liu Juntao pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered that when the battle in Chenjiabao began, many of the shields of the sword and shield hands were broken by the weapons in the hands of the Chen family's Qingzhuang, otherwise, the casualties of the escort team would never have reached more than a hundred!
Therefore, Liu Juntao deliberately modified the style of the shield, so he asked everyone to take a break for a while, took out charcoal and straw paper, and began to draw.
Seeing this, everyone was also very curious, so they gathered around.
I saw Liu Juntao draw a new shield on the straw paper, the whole shield is rectangular, the body is huge, look at the size marked on the straw paper, the whole shield is erected more than one person high.
Moreover, there are two long spines under the new shield, which can be inserted into the ground, which plays a role in assisting fixation; There are also more than ten sharp spikes on the front of the shield, which can play a defensive role, stabbing and stabbing enemies who rush in front of them.
On the side, Zhang Baigui looked at the piece of straw paper carefully, and said in amazement: "Jun Tao, the shield you drew is a little similar to the big shield of the Song Dynasty!" Where did you learn about the Song Army's shield style? ”
"Haha! Master Zhang is really well-informed, and the shield I drew is based on the Song Army's big shield and improved it. ”
Liu Juntao snorted and didn't say anything in detail. When everyone heard this, they all admired Liu Juntao's rich knowledge, but they just thought that Liu Juntao was deeply hidden.
After Liu Juntao finished drawing the style of the new-style shield, he handed it to Zhang Baigui and said, "Master Zhang, in the shortest possible time, all the shields of the escort team should be replaced with such a new-style shield!" ”
"No problem! I immediately mobilized people to rush to make it! ”
After talking about the shield, Liu Juntao said: "In this battle, more than 100 people were killed and injured in my Yushan Guard, and the bereavement of each family must be done!" ”
This matter is under the control of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Guo Yongzhong said unyieldingly: "I will personally handle this matter, and I will go to the homes of those young and strong people who died in battle, one by one!" ”
At this time, Hu Dexing sighed: "I think that our Yushan Guards should recruit some medical craftsmen, just like the official army. In this way, when there are casualties in the convoy, those wounded can receive the most effective treatment! ”
Liu Juntao suddenly woke up after hearing this, and secretly blamed himself in his heart: "I'm a traverser!" I didn't even think about the importance of military doctors! ”
Liu Juntao immediately said: "Guo Yuanwai! Recruit a Medic now, I'm going to set up a medical care hall! The medical craftsmen of the medical hall will go out with the escort team to ensure that the brothers can have the most timely treatment! ”
Guo Yongzhong said with a smile: "Haha, Lord Hu is really a person who wakes up in his dreams, it should be so!" ”
Hearing this, everyone offered suggestions and began to improve the system of the medical care hall.
At this moment, Tang Yu rushed in, and as soon as he entered the door, he said loudly: "Mr. Lian, I met someone from the Kong family in Huakou Town!" ”
When the people heard this, they immediately began to talk.
Liu Juntao was also taken aback when he heard this, and asked, "What is the Kong family doing in Huakou Town?" ”
"Find out the news! That person was stared at by me, what should I do if I practice? ”
Liu Juntao said in a deep voice: "Hmph! Anyway! Tomorrow, Chen Ziping will lead his subordinates back to Huakou Town to garrison, and then let Chen Ziping arrest these spies and lock them up! ”
Tang Yu said with some concern: "Mr. Lian, could this be a harbinger that the Kong family is going to do something to us?" The Kong family is the family of the Holy Father of Qufuyan, and we can't move it! ”
Liu Juntao didn't take it to heart at all, and said, "It's okay! I've got my own hands on this! ”
Then, Liu Juntao said with a smile: "Tang Yu, I have already brought back the money and grain seized this time, you immediately make a register and store it all in the warehouse." In addition, the Chen family industry in Tangyin County and other places should also be taken over as soon as possible! ”
"Don't worry, Mr. Lian, this matter is on me. I'll take care of the things at hand in Yushanji today, and I'll rush to Tangyin County early tomorrow morning to meet Cui Ye. ”
At this time, the sky outside had gradually darkened, and everyone had been talking about it for a long time.
Liu Juntao was also a little hungry, and seeing that things were almost done, he was about to announce the dismissal of the meeting.
At this time, Gao Ran said: "Mr. Lian, there is something I want to ask. ”
Chen Ziping next to him dragged Gao Ran, obviously not wanting Gao Ran to continue.
"Oh?"
Seeing this, Liu Juntao smiled and said, "If you have something, just talk about it." ”
"Mr. Lian, Brother Chen has made a great contribution this time, but there is no promotion charter in our Yushan Collection, how will Brother Chen be rewarded for this achievement?"
Zhang Baigui, who was on the side, suddenly said with an unkind face when he heard this: "Shouldn't you ask about this matter?" ”
It's no wonder, after all, Zhang Xiaojun is the earliest general under Liu Juntao, and now he is on an equal footing with Chen Ziping and Gao Ran, Zhang Baigui is already unconvinced in his heart, how can he allow Chen Ziping to rise up again and climb to the top of Zhang Xiaojun?
Liu Juntao obviously also thought about this problem, and said: "I already have a plan for this matter, I won't talk about it today, and after the two thousand newly recruited young men and all the prisoners have completed their drills, I will announce the promotion regulations of the Yushan Guards in public!" ”
Gao Ran clenched his fists and said yes.
And Chen Ziping also stood up and saluted, and saluted Zhang Baigui, saying: ashamed.
Seeing this, Zhang Baigui couldn't say anything, so he waved his hand and kept silent.
