Li Yuanhao took a thousand pro-troops to the trail and galloped away, but he didn't see that on a hill in the distance, a big tree fell without wind, followed by a big tree on a mountain a few miles away, and so on one after another, and finally, a big tree in the highest part of the mountain behind the Black Tiger Village fell down, followed by a gong sound in the watchtower of the Black Tiger Village, and the entire Black Tiger Village began to stir.

Everyone knows that with this loud gong sound, the big battle that really determines the fate of the base area has arrived.

Whether it was the soldiers or the civilians, all of them did not panic, some only had a desire to fight and a firm confidence in victory, and all of them looked at the spacious hall, where their most trusted military advisors were strategizing.

The hall was very quiet, no one bothered Lu Shi's work and thinking, Zhang Wang and Wang also carefully sorted out the scattered documents and files for the teacher, Lu Shi buried his head in the papers, looked at the reports sent back by Wu Tao and Cao Meng, and kept nodding while reading.

The two armies have won the expected victories and have begun to rectify the localities in accordance with the original arrangement, which makes Lu Shi very pleased, if the situation continues to develop in this way, the prospects of the base areas will be very optimistic, as long as they first survive the difficult stage that has begun now and win a period of time for development, it will not be long before the base areas will lay a strong foundation in these three counties and win the support and love of the people.

What is the most important foundation for development and survival? It is the people, it is the people's heart. As long as the people support it, there will be a steady stream of soldiers and materials, and there will be soldiers who will win all battles.

There may also be setbacks during this period, but those setbacks are no longer terrible, they can only be opportunities to keep training brothers, and the final victory must be ours after all.

In a pile of documents, there was also a list of emergency supplies that Chen Ce submitted to the base, and a businessman in Tianfu County secretly brought saltpeter, sulfur and other materials urgently needed to the cottage to trade with the cottage from a long distance, which made Lu Shi very happy.

Originally, most of the gunpowder and explosives on the cottage were taken by Wu Tao to attack Cao Jiaji, and there was not much inventory on the cottage, even the mountain and the rocks, the construction of roads and terraces were not rich, and a big war was about to begin, and it was necessary to fight with the lives of the brothers, which was what Lu Shi was most anxious about.

The arrival of this businessman is really a relief from the snow to solve the urgent need of the cottage, according to the original promise of the cottage, according to the market price to increase the two transactions and cut the money, both are happy. Seeing that Chuang Jun really kept his promise, the merchant quietly said to Lu Shi that he was entrusted by several other firms to see what else was needed on the cottage on behalf of them, and he would like to make a list or purchase, Lu Shi was overjoyed, and sorted out Chen Ce's list overnight, preparing to hand it over to the merchant to take to purchase today.

The gong outside sounded, and a big battle was about to begin, Lu Shi put down the document file in his hand, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, stretched his waist, and smiled at the two Wang family who were excited; "Here, it's up to us this time. Do you know what is the most torturous and nerve-wracking? ”

Two small shakes of their heads. Lu Shi said with a smile; "It's something you know you're going to come sooner or later, but you're not sure when he's coming. It's like I'm going to give you an exam, but you don't know what the question is. The two nodded together when they thought about it, and it was really as the teacher said. The hardest part is when you don't see the exam questions before the test papers are sent.

"Now it's okay, the test papers have been sent down, and the exam questions are known, so don't worry, but it's something that will be known a long time ago, we just need to answer the questions seriously."

The two of the Wang family nodded in agreement.

"Okay, go and ask the leader of Geng Kui, ask him to gather men and horses, and we will send troops according to the plan in advance, and hurt them, so that they will be terrified when they mention the invasion of the army in the future."

Zhang Xiao cheered excitedly, jumped out and went out to pass the order, and Wang Jian unhurriedly helped the teacher finally sort out the case file.

Lu Shi took the list of goods in his hand and turned to the back of the hall, and in the courtyard behind the hall, the merchant was waiting for Lu Shi's arrival.

Turning a bush, I saw the merchant walking around the yard in a panic with a cold sweat on his face. The sudden sound of the alarm gong just now made Boss Zhao tremble, it seems that the encirclement and suppression army of the imperial court has been launched, and his fate is really not good, but he came here at this time, in case he is blocked by the official army in the village, then he will die without a place to be buried.

Far away, Lu Shihaha smiled and strode forward and said, "Boss Zhao worked hard, did you sleep well last night?" ”

As soon as he saw Lu Shi coming in, Boss Zheng hurriedly wiped the cold sweat on his head, walked quickly to meet him, and said with a wry smile: "It's okay, it's okay, there are thousands of heroes guarding it, how can it be unstable?" ”

Looking at Lu Shi, who was calm and relaxed, his heart settled down a little, it seems that things are not as bad as he imagined. But he still asked tentatively: "Is it that the official army has already arrived at the bottom of the mountain?" ”

Lu Shiwen smiled when he heard this: "Boss Zheng, don't panic, the gong that just called the police just now just told us that the official army has been dispatched, and we also know the way the official army is coming, so we decided to immediately send troops to meet and wipe out the official army outside the base area." ”

Hearing that the official army did not block the gate of the village, Boss Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at the calm and relaxed Lu Shi, in the face of the encirclement and suppression of the official army, why didn't he rely on the terrain of the cottage to defend it, and consume it with the officials and soldiers, and dare to take the initiative to attack? Isn't that too much? Too conceited? Boss Zhao began to worry about the teacher at that time, but looking at Lu Shi's confident face, he could only say: "Yes, yes, the enemy is outside, it is the truth, that what will definitely be defeated by King Chuang, then he must not enter the base area, hehe." ”

It's also embarrassing to say, the people of the court themselves, now talking about the failure of the official army here with the bandits, I really don't know what to say.

Lu Shi smiled, "Thank you Boss Zhao for your blessings, but this is all between us, but it has nothing to do with Boss Zhao, we are doing business as usual, business is going to be discussed, and everything is as usual." When he said this, he solemnly handed the order in his hand to Boss Zhao: "I still have to trouble Boss Zhao to work hard, this is the list of goods that my cottage will need in the future, you can take a look first." ”

Boss Zhao took the list and muttered in his heart: "At this time, the thieves can still book supplies, are they really so confident in their own strength?" ”

Lowered his head and glanced at the list in his hand with his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly take a breath of cold air, good guy, so much, if you can really make a deal, then these businessmen are developed, and you can still order so many goods at this time, it seems that he is either crazy, or he is really confident about this encirclement, but secretly calculated the amount of silver, raised his head and quietly glanced at Lu Shi, who was smiling at himself.

Lu Shi understood, and said with a slight smile: "If Boss Zhao can deliver the goods on time, the silver is not a problem." Without waiting for Boss Zhao's interface, he continued: "According to the rules, we still have to pay a deposit of 20% first, and we can take my signature to the third uncle to collect it in a while, and we will still pay on delivery for the rest of the silver, and we will never be in arrears." ”

At this time, Boss Zhao was even more frightened, and the deposit was still paid first, which showed that people were confident about this war, so what were they afraid of?

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief at that time, no longer worried about being afraid, straightened his waist and regained his original calmness, and began to resume becoming a businessman.

Showing a professional smile at Lu Shi, he shook the thick list in his hand and said: "King Chuang, I thank you very much for your trust in us businessmen, but this is a big order, but I have calculated it at the beginning, this deposit will cost fifty or seventy thousand, and the payment——"

Lu Shi shook his hand to interrupt his words, and said with a smile: "This doesn't have to worry about Boss Zhao, not to mention that we have collected a lot of protection fees during this time, and just now, we annihilated the thousand households in Luochuan, and at the invitation of the people of Luochuan, we destroyed King Cao Yan for everyone, and we got a lot of family property, so you shouldn't worry about our payment, but whether you can meet our requirements." ”

"Yes, yes, absolutely." When Boss Zhao heard this, he nodded with a smile on his face.

King Cao Yan, that is hundreds of years of accumulation of family assets, and it is more than enough to pay us for these goods.

"In that case, then we'll make up our minds." Lu Shi said with a smile.

"It's a deal." Boss Zhao smiled and bowed again and again.

So, Lu Shi smiled and arched his hand, and Shi Shiran went to the front hall.

Lu Shi walked slowly to the steps of the hall.

There was an urgent drum sound, and the 2345th, 7th and 8th squad spearmen, the first military of the firearms battalion, the women's army, the remaining prison sergeants, and a thousand logistics militiamen stood neatly on the colonel's field, and the entire school yard was silent, only the sound of slaughter brought by the wind blowing through the tip of the gun.

Geng Kui strode steadily to Lu Shi's side, and said in a low voice: "King Chuang, everything is ready, please give the order to the king." ”

Seeing that Shi Shiran, who was calm and relaxed, walked to the steps of the hall, the audience suddenly erupted into a tsunami-like cry; "For the fathers and elders behind him, fight to the death and never retreat, kill, kill, kill." The momentum is like a rainbow, and the murderous spirit is full of sky.

Zhao Xing stepped forward and bowed; "Report to King Chuang, according to the news from the news tree, Li Yuanhao's cavalry took the Nanniwan path to attack our Black Tiger Village, and according to the speed, they can reach the Black Tiger Village on the afternoon of the third day."

Lu Shi nodded with a smile, turned to the brothers under the steps and asked loudly; "Did you hear what Captain Zhao said just now?"

"I heard you." Neat answers.

"You say, can Li Yuanhao's dog official reach the foot of our Black Tiger Village in three days?"

"No, no." Tens of thousands of people answered.

"Yes, I firmly believe that with you, he Li Yuanhao will never see the wall of our Black Tiger Village again in his lifetime, and he can't step into the base for half a step, because of you, I firmly believe this." Lu Shi said forcefully.

All the brothers held their chests high, and the confidence in their eyes was stronger.

"The commander of Luochuan and Wu Tao's military division have eliminated those guards and won a complete victory, and the guards of Ganquan have also been blocked in the county town by our Cao Daguan and have become shrinking turtles."

The soldier erupted in a proud laugh.

"It's up to us now. What is our vow? Tell me out loud. ”

"I will not retreat for my father and old man behind me. Kill, kill, kill. The voices shouted together, and even the spearmen who stayed behind in the cottage raised their arms and shouted.
