Wang Qing heard Zeng Yu ask him about Gude's situation, and saw Zhu Wen also looking at him, knowing that the two were worried about their safety, his heart warmed.

"Uncle Bird, he's fine, he also killed the three masters of Jinniu Village, I recommended to Pei Yuanshao to let him lead a thousand people to stay in Jinniu Mountain. Wu Qin and the three brothers are also very good, although the three of them have injured their fingers, after mixing the ointment and applying it, there will be no problem. Moreover, they shot the other party's second leader Lu Zhong in the army, and the three of them were centurions at this time, assisting Bo Yu to stay behind. ”

Zeng Yu and Zhu Wen heard Wang Qing say that they were all right, and now they were still in control of the Jinniu Mountain, and their hearts were also relieved.

"Ziwu, why do you still let them stay in Jinniu Mountain, do you fancy it there, I heard that Jinniu Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, is this really the case."

Generally, after breaking through the cottage, just take away the other party's materials and materials, and rarely occupy the opponent's territory like them, after all, their original territory is the one they are most familiar with and the longest in business.

"Jinniu Mountain is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, from the foot of the mountain upwards, there is a total of one road, and the rest are all cliffs. But it's not the main reason to let them stay there, my lord, you can guess what made me keep them there. ”

Wang Qing sold another pass at this time, deliberately not saying it, and let Zeng Yu guess. This is also because they have grown up together since childhood, and they are very familiar with each other, and Zeng Yu at this time only showed outstanding ability to make everyone respect, but he did not have the prestige of being in a high place for a long time.

Zeng Yu thought for a moment and said: "Bo Yu led the troops to stay, since it is not for the territory of Jinniu Mountain, it must be because of something in Jinniu Mountain." And what can Jinniu Mountain have, if it is the money and grain of Jinniu Village before, presumably even if it is more, you can also make a transport vehicle to transport it back, at most a few days later. But at this time, you just captured it, and you didn't repair it, so you came back directly, which shows that there are more important things in Jinniu Mountain, and these things can't be taken away. And now the only thing I can think of that I can't take with me on the mountain is the mine. Ziwu, did you discover a mine in Jinniu Mountain? ”

Wang Qing was stunned when he heard Zeng Yu's analysis at this time, he was just talking about it, but he didn't expect Zeng Yu to guess it as soon as he guessed, he almost felt that Zeng Yu knew everything at this time.

Zeng Yu saw Wang Qing's expression and said with a smile: "It seems that I guessed correctly." ”

Zhu Wenwen next to him was still worried that his lord had guessed wrong, and when he heard Zeng Yu's words at this time, and then looked at Wang Qing's expression, he felt that Zeng Yu was born to know, but in his opinion, this is also very normal, after all, Zeng Yu has known everything in his mind since he was a child.

"Lord, you guessed it right, there is an iron mine in the back mountain of Jinniu Mountain, and it is a rich mine. So I let Bo Yu stay, and rushed back in a hurry this time, worrying about the safety of the cottage on the one hand, and on the other hand, I wanted to ask the lord what he meant, how to deal with the mine. Wang Qing replied to Zeng Yu with admiration.

"No, I saw today that when you came back just now, the weapons in the hands of the soldiers did not change, and as for the new men, the weapons in their hands were even worse than those of our soldiers. If they have iron ore, it should be more than that. ”

"Lord, don't you know, Jinniu Mountain doesn't have an excellent blacksmith, and they can't smelt iron, and they are afraid that Huanglongzhai will know, so they don't dare to sell iron ore, so the weapons in their hands are all scraped together."

"That's just the time to get us cheaper." Zhu Wen said with a smile.

"Lord, listen to Chengyong, we have a blacksmith in Woniu Mountain?" Wang Qing heard some clues from Zhu Wen's words, so he asked Zeng Yu.

"Yes, his name is Li Hu, I heard Zhou Cang say that his family has been blacksmiths for generations, and his ancestors used to be craftsmen from the Shaofu of the Qin Dynasty, and later he was exiled to Jiuyuan, and was rescued by Zhou Cang, and he has been working in the cottage."

Then Zeng Yu told Wang Qing the details of Li Hu, Wang Qing was also overjoyed when he heard it, and he also wanted to suggest to Zeng Yu to recruit some blacksmiths to go up the mountain and set up a workshop specializing in smelting and casting.

As the three of them spoke, a soldier brought food and wine. Zhu Wenwen didn't drink in the first place, since he was called to drink last time, and after Zeng Yu almost had an accident, he made up his mind to quit drinking. Wang Qing saw that Zhu Wen suddenly stopped drinking, and wanted to persuade him, but Zeng Yu stopped him.

He poured himself a bowl of wine and sent it to Zhu Wen, and said, "Chengyong, I understand what you mean, but I believe that you can control yourself and keep the wine in front of you when you shouldn't drink." If you think you can do it, just drink this cup, now it's just the three of us, it's okay, we all believe that you are a real man who can grasp himself. ”

When Zhu Wen heard Zeng Yu's words, his eyes turned red, and the bowl dried out in one bite.

Wang Qing also guessed that something bad should have happened before, but since Zeng Yu and Zhu Wen didn't say anything, he wouldn't ask more, just picked up the bowl with both hands and said to the two: "Okay, everyone is a real man." Then Zeng Yu and Wang Qing also drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.

When the three of them were eating and chatting, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao walked in. Pei Yuanshao came to Zeng Yu and knelt down on one knee to bow to him, "Pei Yuanshao has seen the lord." ”

"Hurry up, Zhou Cang should tell you everything you need to say, and I promise you two that in five years at most, I will definitely let you return to your hometown." Zeng Yu helped Pei Yuanshao up and said solemnly to the two.

"Okay, Lao Pei, it seems that we can continue to fight side by side." Wang Qing also came to Pei Yuanshao's side at this time, and when he saw that Pei Yuanshao had also joined Zeng Yu, he naturally patted Pei Yuanshao's shoulder happily and said.

Zeng Yu asked several people to take a seat, and then asked the soldiers to send two more drinks and food, and Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao naturally thanked them.

After being full of wine and food, Zeng Yu asked people to remove the tableware, and he asked Zhou Cang if he also knew that there were mineral veins in Jinniu Mountain. Zhou Cang was taken aback when he heard Zeng Yu's question. It turned out that after he persuaded Pei Yuanshao, he brought him over, and there was no time to say anything else in the middle.

Zeng Yu asked Pei Yuanshao to introduce the situation of Jinniu Mountain to Zhou Cang, and Zhou Cang was also very happy when he heard it. Because he knew that Li Hu not only knew how to build weapons, but also had ancestral techniques for smelting, all of which were mastered by the Shaofu of the Qin Dynasty at that time, which was very advanced in this era.

"The problem now is that our Woniu Cottage is a certain distance from Jinniu Village, and if we make iron to build weapons there, it is not very safe, and if we transport it to build it, it will waste a lot of time and manpower. What do you think about this? ”

Zeng Yu saw that everyone here understood, so he asked everyone's opinions, after all, there is this vein, and it can't be wasted.

Pei Yuanshao and Wang Qing looked at each other, they didn't have any ideas for the time being, so they turned their eyes to Zhou Cang at the same time, and Zhu Wen and Zeng Yu also looked over.

Zhou Cang found that everyone was looking at him, so he said, "Why don't we move the cottage over, so that all the problems are solved." ”

Zeng Yu originally had this plan, but this place was chosen by Zhou Cang before, and it was inconvenient for him to open this mouth. Now I heard Zhou Cang take the initiative to say it, knowing that the other party was sincerely taking refuge in himself and thinking about the cottage wholeheartedly.

"It's a good idea, and Taurus Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is more conducive to our development." Wang Qing personally led his troops to attack Jinniu Mountain, and he had a deep understanding of the defense there, and it was indeed a good place to stand.

"Okay, then do it. I will announce it later this evening, and in a month, we will officially set off and move to Jinniu Mountain. Zeng Yu made the final decision.

"Lord, why is it a month later. There are only 1,000 people left there, will something go wrong? When Pei Yuanshao heard that it would take another month, he was in a hurry, he was really a little worried about Gude's defensive ability.

"Yuan Shao don't worry, I know the ability of Bo Bird, with his leadership, even if the 10,000 horses of Huanglongzhai attack. With the advantage of geographical advantages, let alone one month, it is no problem to stick to it for two months. Zeng Yu said to Pei Yuanshao with a smile.

"Moreover, the relocation of the cottage is not a trivial matter, it always needs to be equipped with a lot of things, and there is a need to trim the barracks in Jinniu Mountain, so you can't let the brothers go over and sleep directly in the wild." Zeng Yu continued.

"The lord is thoughtful, I'm just worried, since the lord said that there is no problem, then there must be no problem." Pei Yuanshao listened to Zeng Yu's explanation, and also touched his bald head and said with a smile.

"Zhou Cang, brother under the mountain, has there been any news sent recently, I haven't heard from Zhonghu for several days."

Zeng Yu said to Zhou Cang again, now that Wang Qing and the others have returned, the plan in his heart has taken a big step forward. Just wait for Sun Hao's news, and then you can make great strides forward.

"Lord Qi, two days ago, a brother under the mountain sent a message over, saying that Zhonghu had found the news of your brothers, and it is estimated that they have been found now."

"Okay, you let someone tell Zhonghu, remember to let Zijin come over as soon as possible." When Zeng Yu heard the news, he was happier than he was when he knew that there were ore veins in Jinniu Mountain.

"I'll send someone down the mountain."

"Then you go, remember to inform everyone, we have a celebration banquet in the evening, everyone have a good time."

"Yes!" After speaking, Zhou Cang bowed and went out to make arrangements.

"I said why didn't I see Zhonghu and them, it turned out that the lord sent them to find Zijin. I don't know how Zijin is doing in the county seat? Wang Qing said at this time, just now he was also curious about why he didn't see Qin Fen and Xiang Zhi.

"That's right, after Zhou Cang decided to serve me, I asked Zhonghu to go down the mountain and pick them up. When they come, we'll get together. It's been more than a month since we came out of Qianlong Village, and this month, we've experienced more than anything before. Zeng Yu also sighed.
