Zhou Cang asked the others to guard outside, and he himself walked into the house to meet Zeng Yu. When he came in, he saw Zeng Yu's face pale, covering his mouth and holding back his vomit. He hurriedly walked over and grabbed Zeng Yu's back, and patted him lightly: "Lord, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, it's just the first time I've killed so many people, and I'm a little uncomfortable, just slow down." Zeng Yu waved his hand, signaling that he was fine, and then sat down in the chair.

Zeng Yu had only killed some prey before, and tonight was the first time that so many of the same kind died directly or indirectly in front of him for his own reasons, so he couldn't adapt to it for a while. But he is not an ordinary person, and his strong willpower has always been praised in Qianlong Village.

He took a sip of water, eased up, felt much better, and saw that Zhou Cang was still standing next to him, so he said, "You sit, I'm fine." After tonight's events, I think the people left behind in the cottage will definitely know about your service to me tomorrow. I have some thoughts about the organization of copycats these days, and I plan to talk to you about them. ”

"My lord, please speak." Zhou Cang was looking forward to Zeng Yu's arrangement of the cottage.

"First of all, we have to take the route of elite soldiers, and there are not many soldiers, I plan to leave only half of the people and horses in the cottage, including the people and horses brought by Pei Yuanshao and Wang Qing, to train them into soldiers, and they are not engaged in production in normal times, mainly for training for combat. As for the rest of the people, some of them can be disposed of in the cottage, and the other part, I plan to take them down the mountain. Zeng Yu first put forward the idea of streamlining his troops.

"Lord, I can understand the elite soldiers, but you let some of the brothers go down the mountain, they originally couldn't live under the mountain, so they followed us, now let them go down, what will they do in the future?" Zhou Cang originally agreed with Zeng Yu's idea, but when he heard that Zeng Yu asked some people to go down the mountain, he suddenly became anxious. Almost all the people in the cottage had followed him from the border counties of Bingzhou, and since they had followed him Zhoucang, he felt that he could not abandon them at will.

"You hear me clearly, it's not for them to go down alone, it's to go down with me. After the cottage was arranged, I led these brothers down the mountain to Anping County, which was under the mountain. Now that the county magistrate of Anping County is old, and has reached the age of Zhishi, I plan to donate a county magistrate, and then buy some manors and land at the foot of the mountain, so that these brothers can continue to engage in the old business of farming. Now that the displaced people are wandering around, I have recruited them as the lord of a county, and I have selected some of them to be private soldiers, and the others have been stationed in the fields with the brothers who have descended from the mountain. In this way, I have two teams in one light and one in the dark. Zeng Yu explained his overall arrangement to Zhou Cang.

He met Zhang Fuguang from the very beginning, and knew from Zhang Fuguang that when the county order of Anping County reached the age of Zhishi, he had the idea of donating a county order, after all, as a county order, suppressing the upcoming Yellow Turban Uprising was justified, and if he simply returned to the court as a bandit, it would be easy for the court to look down on him and not be taken seriously.

When Zhou Cang heard this, he was also relieved. But he was worried that the cottage would divide a part of the people and horses down the mountain, which would cause the cottage to weaken, and if Huanglongzhai sent people to attack, the Woniu cottage would not be able to resist this little force, Zhou Cang told Zeng Yu about his worries.

"Don't worry about this, Huanglongzhai won't attack us on a big scale now. And this time, Ziwu is the pioneer, and Lao Pei is the backup, and the Taurus Village must be in the bag. Before I set off, I told Ziwu that except for the stubborn ones, the others who could be taken prisoner would be captured, so that the cottage should be able to select at least a thousand elite soldiers. This time I will go down the mountain, I will leave the three brothers Ziwu and Wu behind, and in addition, I will be with me from before arranging a few, but now I am still arranging for the brothers from the county town to come up to manage the logistics. Ziwu is a son of the Wang family, and he has the army training method inherited by their family, and the Great Qin Ruishi relied on by the Great Qin in the past I don't know if you have heard of it, the core inheritance of their family is the training method of the Great Qin Ruishi in addition to the art of war. I will let him focus on training, so that the Great Qin Ruishi can reappear in the land of China. ”

Zeng Yu took a sip of water, and then said: "In addition, the three Wu brothers are excellent hunters, and they will definitely be terrified of the place as scouts on the battlefield, and they are also extremely good at mountain warfare, so I asked Ziwu to send some men and horses to train them." The advantage of the scouts on the battlefield means that we are able to turn the other side blind and deaf, so that we have already won half of the battle before the war has started. ”

"Rest assured, the lord will complete the task to the death!" Zhou Cang listened to Zeng Yu's arrangement and excitedly took it up. Especially the Great Qin Ruishi, he knew that it was a team that could be invincible in the past, if they could train it, then it would definitely be no problem for them to take revenge in the future.

"Sit down. There is another thing, I want to explain, I plan to take Lao Pei with me, you are stable, just stay here in the cottage. You are the main owner of the cottage, and at the same time, Ziwu and a brother arranged by me behind me will assist you in managing the cottage. Zeng Yu asked Zhou Cang to sit down and arranged the primary and secondary issues on the surface of the cottage in the future. After all, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and several people must have a priority to be conducive to management.

As for taking Pei Yuanshao with him, first, if Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao are both there, they are the founders of Woniu Cottage, and if they get together, if they have a different heart, or have a dispute with Wang Qing, Wang Qing and they will definitely be in a weak position. Transfer Pei Yuanshao away, and at the same time let Zhou Cang continue to serve as the big boss, and the second master of the cottage and the third master of the new arrangement are all brothers of his Qianlong Village, which can play a balancing role.

On the other hand, he really wanted to take Pei Yuanshao with him, and when he arrived in the county seat, he could arrange Pei Yuanshao in the county government and account for the officers and soldiers in the county. Pei Yuanshao is irritable and needs to be watched by his side. As for Goode and others, he planned to arrange for him to train his own private soldiers.

"Lord, I, Zhou Cangcai, am not a shallow learner, and I dare not continue to be the big boss of the cottage, so please let Ziwu serve as the lord, he is more suitable." Zhou Cang heard that Zeng Yu arranged for him to manage the cottage, and he was very grateful to Zeng Yu for his trust and love, but he knew that he could not compare to Wang Qing in terms of ability, so he resigned to Zeng Yu.

"No, you're better suited than Ziwu. You built it when you were in the Woniu Cottage, although you served me, but in the eyes of many people in the cottage, you are still their big boss, and you are the one who is determined to lead them to take back the home garden, so it is more suitable for you to continue to serve as the big boss for the stable transition of the cottage. ”

"Obey the orders of the lord, I will definitely manage the cottage with Ziwu and them." Zhou Cang knew that this was Zeng Yu's trust in him, and if he was shirking, it would not be good, so he agreed.

"Very good, for the cottage, I only have one request at present, that is, you should develop the combatable soldiers of the cottage to at least 5,000 people this year, and I will be of great use." Zeng Yu knew that there were still two years left before the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and if he wanted to take the opportunity to make meritorious contributions and gain fame, he must first gather a combatable army, and then use his foresight and foresight to make enough contributions, so that he would not become someone else's pawn in the next troubled times.

After a night of hustle and bustle, when he woke up the next day, Zeng Yu saw that the blood stains outside the house had been cleaned, and the broken doors and windows of his house had also been repaired, and he couldn't tell that there was a fight here yesterday. However, the restoration of the environment cannot hide the fact that it happened.

Everyone who stayed in the cottage knew that the current leader of the cottage had changed from Zhou Cang to Zeng Yu, and the guards who were sent to protect Zeng Yu now changed their names to call him the lord, and everyone else should be too. Zeng Yu also accepted it as a matter of course, this is only the first step for him to achieve hegemony in the future, and there will definitely be more people following him in the future.

Zeng Yu looked around inside the cottage and found that in the rear of the cottage, there is also a weapon repair workshop, usually the weapons in the cottage, old or broken, not directly thrown away, but taken here to do a repair, and then continue to be used by the soldiers, which is also the reason why the Woniu cottage has just been established, but it can do a weapon per person. You know, there are not many iron tools at this time, and many cottages that have just been established have a variety of weapons, hoes and everything, and some even hold wooden sticks.

When Zeng Yu came to the workshop, the masters of the workshop came out to greet him, led by a big man, who was shirtless, with dark skin, and sweat left along the skin, as if he had just been drenched in water.

"I'll wait to see my lord!" They saw Zeng Yu coming, and hurriedly saluted when they arrived in front of Zeng Yu.

"Excuse me, who's in charge here?" Zeng Yu asked them to get up, and asked Dahan.

"Returning to my lord, this is the small one in charge, mainly by returning to the furnace to rebuild, repair and build weapons, so that the brothers can have a good hand." Dahan replied.

"Oh, what's your name, are all the weapons in the cottage repaired and built by you?" Zeng Yu asked.

"The little one's name is Li Hu, he used to be a blacksmith, because Brother Zhou Cang saved my life, so I followed Brother Zhou, he saw that I was okay to make iron, so he asked me to be in charge here." The big man's name is Li Hu, and he is the person in charge here.

"Did you also build the weapons in the cottage?" Zeng Yu asked again, he saw that the weapons used by the soldiers of the cottage were good, better than the weapons used by Zhang Fuguang's guards before, and he was a little curious to see if it was from Li Hu's hand.

"It's the small ones that are made, and if I have good iron ingots, I can make better weapons. However, we did not have iron mines, and the cottages did not have any extra money to buy iron ingots, so I had to help the brothers forge their weapons to be sharper and tougher. Li Hu said proudly.

"Oh, really, if I provide you with good iron ingots, you can really make better weapons. You don't have to worry about iron ingots, I'll find a way, I just ask you to create more excellent weapons. Zeng Yu said decisively.

"Please rest assured, as long as there are materials and manpower, Li Hu will not disappoint the lord." As a blacksmith, Li Hu originally loved this industry, and when he heard that there would be materials to provide to him in the future, he naturally happily agreed.

Zeng Yu patted him on the shoulder, and then looked at the facilities of the workshop, which were relatively simple, with only three large stoves, each with an anvil for striking iron. Li Hu introduced that these anvils were ancestral to his family, and when he followed Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang knew that this thing was relatively rare, so he asked his subordinates to bring them over.

After Zeng Yu looked around, he asked them to continue, and he himself came to Zhou Cang's residence and asked Li Hu if he was really able to create excellent weapons as he said.

Zhou Cang originally planned to go to Zeng Yu's side today to give him a detailed introduction to the situation of the cottage, including this workshop for building weapons. He told Zeng Yu that Li Hu was because the weapons he built were better than others, and the people of the Southern Huns wanted to invite him over to build weapons for them, but Li Hu did not agree, so the Huns sent people to kill him, but fortunately, Zhou Cang passed by with men and horses and saved Li Hu, but Li Hu's wife and children were killed by the Huns.

After Zeng Yu heard it, he was also relieved, he asked Zhou Cang to tell Li Hu to manage the workshop well, try to teach some apprentices to come out, and the weapons of the cottage will be handed over to him in the future, as for the revenge of Li Hu's wife and children being killed, he will definitely help him avenge it.

After that, Zhou Cang introduced the current situation of the cottage to Zeng Yu, mainly the money and grain, as well as where the usual money and food come from, and how long it can be supported.

Zeng Yu understood the situation of the cottage and knew that everything needed him to worry about now, but the important thing now was to wait for Wang Qing and them to triumph.
