It was the first time for Wu Tao to be welcomed by people beating gongs and drums, especially when the other party also handed over a letter from Mr. Li as a proof.

As soon as the man saw Wu Tao, he immediately stepped forward and was about to kneel, but he hesitated to stand up straight and hug his fists; "It's a flower, ah no, let's break into the army and call the bandits, except for the commander." The man scratched his head honestly and embarrassedly.

This made Wu Tao even more confused, why did this pole claim that we were breaking into the army, it seems that his subordinates don't have this way.

The man didn't care about Wu Tao's doubts, straightened his body, and then signed up for a new way; "The subordinate kingdom is strong to see the general village Wu Tao military division, we have been waiting for Wu military division to check for many days, and now please ask the military division to go up the mountain to check the people, horses, money and food." With that, he bowed down and stood on the side of the road, holding out his hand in a gesture inviting him up the mountain.

Wu Tao looked at the respectful mountain king in confusion, and then saw that there was no hypocrisy in his pure eyes, anyway, the people and horses he was carrying were not bad hands, and he was not afraid of what the other party was doing, so he gritted his teeth and followed him to the cottage.

The so-called cottage is just a tall fence with wood fence in a dangerous place, and hundreds of thatched huts are built inside the fence to shelter from the wind and rain.

Entering the hall, the kingdom forced Wu Tao to get to the main position, which made Wu Tao even more inexplicably surprised, he seemed to be a guest, not a host, so he hurriedly postponed, and the kingdom immediately said solemnly: "Strategist, now I am already your subordinate, you check my department, you should be seated, here, there is no subordinate position." ”

Wu Tao was humble again and again, but he still couldn't resist the mountain king who claimed to be the king of the kingdom, but he was still forced to sit on his hand, and then took out a letter respectfully in Wu Tao's astonishment; "Brother Junshi, this is the book that Mr. Li handed over to his subordinates when he left a few days ago, and asked his subordinates to transfer it to the military advisor, please watch it."

Wu Tao, who was full of suspicion at the moment, took the letter, and when he saw that the letter was sealed and intact, he immediately tore it open and watched.

What catches the eye is that Mr. Li's dashing font, the content of the letter is to the effect that this Mr. Li is a down-and-out person, who has to be appreciated and loved by the king and the military advisor, and is accepted and reused by the cottage without any merits, and is deeply ashamed, the early military division arranged Luo Chuan and his party has been completed, and he has nothing to do, so he took his subordinate brothers to wander to this cottage, and after going up the mountain, he talked with the Wang brothers very happily, and then crossed the decision, and promised the Wang brothers to incorporate him into the outer branch of the army, and selected the number of soldiers according to the conditions of the general village, It was promised that once the military division inspected and inspected, he would be entrusted with the post of military commander of the guard team of the Woniu Mountain Branch of the Black Tiger Village. This is a strategy to break into the army and raise troops outside the country without attracting the attention of the imperial court, and Wanwang military division does not blame his subordinates for the crime of making decisions without authorization, and now he has gone to the next cottage to fight for Wu Tao, and the details and ideas are waiting for the military division to return to Cao's house to discuss in detail. Below is Mr. Lee's signature, as well as the year, month and date.

"Good, wonderful, great. This is to carry forward the original method of giving some property to the surrounding cottage poles, the most important thing is to turn the co-optation into a co-optation, which not only strengthens the strength of the army, but also hides the strength of the army, and does not attract the attention of the imperial court. The two are similar. Mr. Li is really talented. Black Tiger Village has made a big development again.

After reading the letter, although Wu Tao admired it in his heart, he smiled as usual and said to the kingdom; "Brother Wang, what did Mr. Li say when he came?"

The kingdom is strong and respectfully owes the way of the body; "If you go back to the military division."

Wu Tao hurriedly said with a smile; "They are already their own brothers, why are they still so restrained? Don't you think of me as a brother? ”

Wang Guoqiang smiled embarrassedly, in fact, he is also a bold and open-minded person, he just wanted to join the army, the army is a big village that is not prosperous, what is the king, what is the commander, what is the deputy military division, what is the general manager, what is the sergeant, etc., it must be a strict hierarchy, although he has not been an official, but he has seen the style of the official master, it is a big family, it is a big family, it is a strict hierarchy, and he has just joined, don't break the rules and be despised. Therefore, when he saw Wu Tao, he was doubly careful, which actually made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Wu Tao knew what he was thinking, so he smiled; "Actually, Brother Wang doesn't have to be nervous and restrained, our King Chuang is not scared with a straight face all day long, easy-going and tight. When we had a meeting in the cottage, it was also a quarrel and quarrel without a proper shape, the third uncle from time to time to the commander or the king to laugh and scold a few words, everyone in front of a sea bowl of hot water, just so giggling and drinking, I smelled one of the four elders of an old camp several times, the sea bowl secretly put wine, I also secretly snatched to drink, and those patting and beating are even more commonplace, there is no superiority at all, anyway, everyone is brothers, open-minded, The mind is also for the base area, as long as it is said that it is beneficial to the development of the base area, King Chuang and the general will laugh at it, a meeting is often a meeting topic set at the beginning, but at the end of the day, it has solved a lot of other big and small things, We are not those official mansions, just like that useless virtual shelf, but there is no seriousness in the clouds. So, since Brother Wang is already the leader of our army, he is a brother in the army, where do you want those stinky rules that respond to stories? Hurry up and finish getting down to business, I still want to ask you for a glass of wine and food with my brother, and I want to be hungry when I come all the way to your acre and three points of land? ”

When Wu Tao said this, he was right about Wang Guoqiang's spleen and stomach, and he laughed and put down the burden at the moment; "Since it's like the military advisor said so, then brother, I won't pretend anymore, the rules of actually pretending to be the master of the government are really tiring."

So the two of them laughed together.

While this kingdom is forced to let go of its burden, it is also more yearning for the base that Mr. Li and Wu Tao said, and I can't wait to go to the general village for a while to meet the king and the general commander that Mr. Li and Wu Tao always have in their mouths.

"Before Mr. Li left, he told me that when Wu Junshi came, he asked me to report on the situation of my cottage and wait for the decision of the military master."

Wu Tao bowed with a smile and said, "Then don't you hurry up?" After speaking, it is good to drink and eat. ”

Wu Tao's words made Wang Guoqiang feel even more intimate, so he began to introduce his cottage situation. "There are more than 1,100 men, women and children in my village, all of whom are in this left near the homeless township, according to the rules of our general village that Mr. Li said, we can choose two hundred and three qualified young and strong people, and Zhenghe Yiwu, so Mr. Li said that I will temporarily take the position of military chief, and then arrange for the brothers of the general village to take over when the military division comes to inspect, and then make a decision on my arrangement."

When Wu Tao heard this, he observed that Wang Guoqiang was not at all dissatisfied with Mr. Li's arrangement, which shows how outstanding Mr. Li's eloquence is and how much effort he has put in.

Wu Tao leaned back and said to Wang Guoqiang with a smile: "Brother Wang, do you know that a military commander in our cottage is a very small officer, you are not the emperor of the soil, but you are not the first petty official in this battle array, wouldn't you be wronged." ”

"I know, Mr. Li has told me repeatedly." Wang Guoqiang patted his thigh excitedly; "Actually, I know that my talent is not qualified for this military commander at all, and I am content to be a squad leader." Seeing Wu Tao looking at him with his mouth wide open, he was busy changing his words; "If the military advisor thinks that I can't even be a squad leader, then it's okay to be a small soldier."

Wu Tao hurriedly shook his hand and said; "Brother Wang misunderstood, Brother Wang's ability to manage a cottage shows his ability, I mean it's a condescension to be a martial chief, you go back and accept a sparring first, I said to King Chuang, please be the vice captain of that team."

The kingdom shook his hand again and again; "No, no, the military advisor also looks up to his brother, where do I have the ability to manage this cottage? It's just a group of people in the left township who have no way to live, and when they see that I am powerful, they get together and help each other to fight against the government and find a way to live, and today I don't know what will happen tomorrow. "His expression darkened;" We are all kind villagers, but this world is helpless to be thieves, we can't bear to rob the poor people, but the attack on the big manor does not have the ability, last time in order to raise food and grass for the winter, gathered his subordinates to reluctantly build a small manor to get some grain and grass, but also lost the lives of many brothers and fathers. ”

Wu Tao was also gloomy, knowing that the helpless battle must be very tragic for this Woniu Mountain, in order for some people to survive, they had to pay for the lives and blood of another group of people, this was a cruel topic, Wu Tao didn't want to listen to it anymore, and hurriedly diverted the topic; "But I don't know how Mr. Li arranged with you?"

That Wang Guoqiang didn't hear the language problem in Wu Tao's words, and when he mentioned this, he immediately came to his senses; Mr. Li said, after we were reorganized into the general village of the village, the establishment of a branch of the village, the treatment of half of the village allocation, other men are organized into the militia, the first year of the people on the cottage according to the rules of the old camp of the village, according to half, that is, one pound of food per person per day, and so on after the general village agreed, the village sent someone to give us the method of building terraces, but also to install a waterwheel for us, Mr. Li looked at my Woniu Mountain valley and said, this is a good feng shui treasure land, the river water in the Woniu Valley can irrigate a large area of slopes on both sides, Let's break into the old man's family to invent a method of terraced fields, which can turn the mountains into flat land, and use the windmill invented by the old man to lift the river water to such a high place for irrigation. He gestured hard with his hands, and then laughed and said excitedly: "Hahaha, as long as we are tired and tired, we will definitely be able to cultivate a lot of fertile fields in the spring, and we will definitely be able to eat a full meal in the autumn." At this time, Wang Guoqiang was already dancing happily, and his face was already full of hope for the future and the upcoming abundance and happiness. For the old and young people in the cottage, the result of being able to eat enough has tears looming in their eyes.

Wu Tao was gloomy again, what a simple man, what a realistic and small hope, for them, having enough to eat is their greatest luxury, and once satisfied, it is the greatest happiness.

"Also, Mr. Li said, Chuang Wang his old man will also send someone to teach us how to raise rabbits, and will also give us pigs and sheep for us to graze, by the way, Chuang Wang his old man said, at the end of the year, only half of our pigs and sheep will be collected, and the rest will belong to us, so that a ewe can lay three litters a year, as long as you feed them wholeheartedly, you can get a minimum of five lambs a year, if the total village gives us fifty breeding sheep, then we can get 250 lambs a year, In addition to the one hundred and twenty-five handed over to the general village, hahaha, then we can get one hundred and twenty-five lambs, the previous lambs will grow up to be lambs, so that we can have a meal of mutton to eat next year's New Year, and those sows, a litter can give birth to ten piglets, and a sow can be twenty piglets a year, hahahaha. At this time, seeing that Wang Guoqiang obviously didn't have enough heads, he just stared at the military advisor with bright eyes and smirked, and even the minions of the Woniu Village who were probing their brains outside the hall began to giggle, and their faces were full of happy red light, and their heads were full of pictures of boars and sheep.
