Zhu Wen and the others were waiting below, and they also wanted to know if Zeng Yu could succeed in persuading Yin Zhuo this time. Of course, in Zhu Wen's opinion, his lord must be nine out of ten, Zhu Wen now has blind trust in Zeng Yu, he has always been by Zeng Yu's side, and witnessed how Zeng Yu started from scratch and established today's foundation.

While they were waiting, someone came out of the attic, the first one was Zeng Yu, followed by the previous family member, and another young scribe whom they had never seen before. At this time, the young scribe was still following behind Zeng Yu, and the two were still communicating while walking, Zeng Yu's face showed a satisfied smile, obviously, in Zhu Wen's opinion, Zeng Yu must have succeeded.

Zhu Wen stepped forward and saluted Zeng Yu, thinking about Zeng Yu and asking, "Lord, this is Mr. Yin Zhuo." ”

"It's down there!" Yin Zhuo saw Zhu Wen coming over to ask him, and bowed his hand back to him, and at the same time looked at Zeng Yu with inquiring eyes.

"Yaozu, let me introduce to you, this is Zhu Wen, my good brother, he has always been the commander of my personal army, and he is currently serving as the head of the county government." Zeng Yu took Zeng Yu's hand and introduced it to Yin Zhuo. Yaozu is the character of Yin Zhuo, and it can be seen from his words that the family of Yin Zhuo expects him from him.

Zeng Yu continued: "Chengyong, Yaozu has promised to serve as the chief secretary of the county, and in the future, everyone will be colleagues, move around each other more, and contact each other." ”

"Yes, sir, if you need any help, just come to me, and I will do my best to help as long as I can." Zhu Wen patted Yin Zhuo's chest and said.

"Lord Zhu is polite, thank you first!" Yin Zhuo replied politely.

"Yaozu, I wonder when it will be convenient for you to take office?" Zeng Yu asked Yin Zhuo.

Yin Zhuo knew the purpose of Zeng Yu's question, there were so many things in the county office, of course he hoped that he would take office as soon as possible, so he replied: "Lord Qiyu, I can set off now, I am also familiar with some affairs in this county, and I can start working as soon as possible when I get to the county office." ”

"Okay, let's go now, do you have anything to prepare?" Zeng Yu saw Yin Zhuo so refreshing, and asked happily.

"Nothing to pack. Xiao Chi, you stay here to take care of the family, and I will go to the county office. After Yin Zhuo replied to Zeng Yu, he instructed the family next to him.

Jia Ding Xiaochi was brought out of the family by Yin Zhuo, and he has followed him since he was a child, and he is naturally very happy to see his master being reused. He didn't think much about it, and he didn't expect Yin Zhuo to have the opportunity to realize his ideals, but as the saying goes, the prime minister has a seven-rank official in front of the door, and the status of the master is high, and he, a family member, has more face in the county.

Of course, Yin Zhuo couldn't think of what his family thought in his heart, he followed Zeng Yu to the county office where he worked before, but at this time his identity was completely different from before. The previous self, in the final analysis, can only be regarded as a tool for Cui Yu to accumulate wealth, and the two of them take what they need, and there is no more in-depth communication. Cui Yu took his proposal, so that he had more names to collect various taxes in the county, and he himself borrowed Cui Yu's name to put into practice what he had learned from the book.

But this time, he followed Zeng Yu to the county office again, not only did his identity change from the previous ordinary staff to one of the three adjutant officials of the county order, but he was even more like-minded with Zeng Yu, not purely out of interest, from the moment he stepped into the main gate, he felt that today's decision may be the most important decision in his life. Zeng Yu watched from the side, feeling the change in Zhu Wen's thoughts, at this time he didn't speak, just waited silently beside him.

Zhu Wen didn't let Zeng Yu wait too long, and soon he sorted out his mind, looked at Zeng Yu who was waiting next to him, and signaled that he was all right, Zeng Yu smiled at him and took him to the main bookkeeper's office.

There are already some officials there, among whom Qianlong Village was born in Weifeng, Zeng Yu did not appoint the chief secretary before, so he temporarily served as the governor here, leading the officials in the current class room to count the county's population and land taxes. Zeng Yu introduced Yin Zhuo's identity to everyone, except for Wei Feng, the people here were all officials who originally worked in the county government, they all knew Yin Zhuo, and when they heard Zeng Yu introduce Yin Zhuo as their top boss, they saluted him.

Zeng Yu told Wei Feng that Yin Zhuo was specially invited by himself, and it was more than enough to serve as the chief bookkeeper in terms of talent, and he knew the situation in the county very well before, so Wei Feng obeyed Yin Zhuo's instructions.

Wei Feng knew that his lord had asked them to investigate and understand this person before going to Luoyang, and they saw in the investigation that Yin Zhuo was a capable Legalist scholar, and now Zeng Yu was the first to invite him to come out after he had just entered the county, so Wei Feng naturally agreed to Zeng Yu's request.

Zeng Yu explained a few more words to Yin Zhuo, and then left with Zeng Yu. Next, Zeng Yu went to Liu Neng and the others one after another to see the progress of everyone's current processing, and Liu Neng and the others told him that it would take about three days to deal with everything. This includes the verification of the various things committed by the Wang family and Sun Jian, which means that after three days, the corresponding punishment of those who committed other crimes can be carried out in accordance with the laws of the Han Dynasty.

After that, Zeng Yu went to Jean Goode. Goode has now moved to the barracks where the county soldiers are located, and Wang Qing and Wu Ming have also led their respective subordinates to temporarily stationed there. When Zeng Yu arrived, he happened to meet Gude who was selecting strong men from those county soldiers.

Goode's selection method is very simple, let all the county soldiers wear armor and weapons, run ten laps around the school field, and those who finish the run within half an hour will stay, and all those who do not finish the run will be sent back. At that time, when the county soldiers heard Goode's request, almost all of them said that the request was too high. But Wang Qing's soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion were nearby, and they personally demonstrated that not only did all of them run in half an hour, but the armor passed down was even more iron, much heavier than the leather armor on their bodies. After seeing this, everyone had nothing to say, and they all started to run.

Of course, some of them were originally to be a county soldier mixed with a salary, and when they ran up, they had no motivation at all, and they obviously fell behind after just one or two laps. So at this time, Zeng Yu was reluctantly presented in the school field, there were some people running in the front of the school field, accounting for about one-third, these people were all in good physical strength, and they also wanted to stay in the county soldiers. There were also about a hundred people who were some distance away from the group at the front, most of whom wanted to stay, but they were not outstanding in terms of physical strength. In the end, about half of them were left far behind.

Zeng Yu didn't walk up to Goode until half an hour after the selection was over, and asked him, "Uncle bird, I don't know how many people stayed in this selection?" ”

"My subordinates have seen the lord, through the selection, I have selected a total of four hundred and twelve people, they are considered to be cultivable talents among the county soldiers, as long as they go through a certain amount of training, their combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved." Goode replied.

"Well, I'll leave it to you here, and you go and draw up a recruitment notice to increase the number of county soldiers to three thousand. You don't have to worry about food, we have now captured the accumulation of the Wang family and the Sun family, which is enough to support three thousand soldiers for a year. Zeng Yu commanded.

"Yes, my lord!" Goode clenched his fists in agreement.

"Ziwu, after the conscription is completed, you and Wu Ming will lead the unclothed army back to Jinniu Mountain. I heard that the nearby mountains have been subdued by us, and you will convey Zhou Cang and Zijin after you go back, and strive to break through Huanglongzhai as soon as possible. But be sure to pay attention to safety, there is still a year at most, and I believe we can play the banner of the unclothed army! Zeng Yu walked to Wang Qing next to Gude, although he was reluctant in his heart, he still spoke.

"But, big brother, some of the private soldiers of the Shi family in front of me have escaped and hidden, and I am afraid that this person will take the opportunity to make trouble." Wang Qing opened his mouth and said, he still remembered that he had chased those routs before, and saw them throw down their weapons and flee in all directions, many of them fleeing back to their respective homes. Although the city gates are now controlled by the Rui Shi Battalion, those people should not have escaped from the county seat, but they have not been caught, and there are always potential hidden dangers.

"You don't have to worry about this, I will go and let the people of the Wang family and the Sun family cooperate and arrest them all. These people are very good coolies, and they can be arranged to be tuntian outside the county. Zeng Yu had already made arrangements for these people, and when he heard Wang Qing ask, he told him his plan.

"Big brother has a plan, I'm relieved!" Wang Qing said.

"Ziwu, you Wu Ming have led your subordinates to make great contributions this time, and the eldest brother has no reward, you won't mind. But don't worry, I will remember your credits, and when you officially go down and play the banner of the Clothless Army, you will be rewarded at that time. Zeng Yu looked at Wang Qing and said.

"Big brother!" Wang Qing gritted his teeth, looked at Zeng Yu and called out big brother, everything was silent.

Zeng Yu patted Wang Qing on the shoulder, and then turned around and left, now is in the school field, and it is not the time to talk about things. Wang Qing watched Zeng Yu walk away, he turned around and shouted to the soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion: "Everyone prepare, change the wooden sword, and start actual combat training!" ”

"Yes!"

The sudden roar of the soldiers of the Rui Shi Battalion startled the county soldiers who had just been left after the selection, and then they saw the soldiers of the Rui Shi Battalion replace the ring head knife with a wooden sword and start a one-on-one fight. From their point of view, everyone who was fighting seemed to really regard the opponent as an enemy, as if they were going to really slash the opponent to the ground, this scene made the county soldiers who saw these palpitations, and they only then understood why the previous Ruishi battalion was able to defeat more than 7,000 enemies with fewer victories at a small cost.
