"Yuan Zhi, send someone to Xiangyang, find the Huang family and the Cai family, find some craftsmen to come over, this place has to be repaired, otherwise how will we wait to be stationed." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Liu Yong looked back at the courtyard of the station.

"Lord, I'm afraid that the carriages and horses will be tired, and many craftsmen are reluctant to come." Zhong Zhao said.

"It's not a problem, tell them that the wages are doubled, and tell them that they are recruited by the governor. In addition, Shinno can also be recruited. "Money can make ghosts grind, this is always the truth, at least Liu Yong thinks.

"Liao Hua, Zhou Cang, find a few reliable brothers, go and keep an eye on Xue Yi and Lu Qian, and report anything at any time." Liu Yong sighed and commanded that if they didn't have any unscrupulous deeds in Xinye's back, no one would believe it at all.

"No!"

"Yuan Zhi, Zhong Zhao, follow me to the outside of the city to have a look." Liu Yongdao.

"Out of town?" Xu Shu was a little strange.

"How many men do you think we'll have in the future?" Liu Yong looked at Xu Shu with a smile.

Xu Shu felt that he had overestimated Liu Yong's ambitions, but now it seems that he still underestimated it.

The three of them wandered around outside the city, ran straight out for twenty or thirty miles, and almost walked around the outside of Xinye City. Along the way, Liu Yong asked them to mark all the places that could be used as garrisons for later use. Along the way, Xu Shu was frightened, if all these places were really used to garrison troops, at least no less than 500,000 troops. And now, Liu Biao has a total of 200,000 troops, and Xu Shu can't think of the situation after this. But, are there so many people?

Now that the three days agreed before have arrived, several people hurried back to the city.

The county mansion is guarded by hundreds of soldiers at the door, and Zhoucang Liaohua is standing at the gate. When Liu Yong arrived, they all bowed down together, which was a shocking scene.

Then Lu Qian was going to leave the mansion, but he was stopped by Zhou Cang and the others in the mansion, like ants on a hot pot, restless, walking back and forth. But Xue Yi was not seen.

"Lord County, today is the delivery date, and none of the people, horses, ordnance, grain and grass have been delivered, what are you going to do?" Liu Yong looked at Lu Qian in front of him and said.

"It's ready, and it's delivered, but the two generals won't let him leave the house, and the old man can't." Lu Qian said with a dry smile.

"In that case, well, let's settle now. Lead the way! Liu Yong motioned for Lu Qian to go first, and Lu Qian also had to step forward to lead the way.

In a courtyard guarded by a sergeant, Xue Yi was holding a leather whip and beating a young man fiercely, who had been beaten all over his body before being dragged away.

This is a quadrangle compound, divided into several areas, each of which is surrounded by timber cells, and there are dozens of tattered young people, middle-aged and even teenagers in each of them, some of whom are rarely bloody, and all of them have deep fear in their eyes, and occasionally a trace of viciousness flashes in their eyes, but it disappears immediately.

In the middle of the courtyard is a patio, which is now isolated and placed with several torture instruments, as if it were a place for punishment.

"Wait for me to remember, when you come here, you have to listen to Lao Tzu, the words just taught to you have been memorized by Lao Tzu, if you make a mistake in half a word, be careful of your head." Xue Yi pointed to the courtyard and shouted.

A servant stepped forward and whispered something to Xue Yi, and saw Xue Yi sneering and said, "All come out and stand neatly." ”

All the people who were locked in it were brought out and stood at the gate of the courtyard, and then they looked at Lu Qian from a distance and brought Liu Yong and the others over. Xue Yi immediately put on a humble smile: "Congratulations to Lord Liu, the Governor of the tent!" ”

"Greetings to Lord Liu, the Governor of the Tent!" The people who were brought out also greeted in unison, but some of them lowered their heads with a pang of pain on their faces.

"My lord, these are the new recruits sent by Xiangyang, it was originally five hundred, but a few people fought each other and died, a few are missing, please check."

"Why so few?" Liu Yong frowned. You must know that what he saw in Xiangyang that day was not only these numbers, after many days, he sent these people, and the water in the middle is really not shallow.

"Lord Liu, Xiangyang only sent these people, and I don't know why." Lu Qian peeked at Liu Yong and said.

Zhou Cang and Liao Hua stepped forward, and after checking and checking, a total of 496 people were found to be consistent with those on the roster.

"Why are so many people hurt?" Liu Yong asked Xue Yi.

"It's all the result of the fight. Most of these people were originally slandered villains who were rampant in the township, and now it is inevitable that something will happen when they gather together. In the future, it will be necessary for Lord Liu to be trained well. Xue Yi stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Well, in that case, I'm going to deliver the grain, grass and ordnance." Liu Yong glanced at the small courtyard, he didn't look at the wine, but just said something to Zhong Zhao in private.

After the delivery was completed, everyone's faces were blue. The so-called grain and grass, mildew and deterioration alone account for less than half, to separate, it must take a lot of effort, and in the end it can be used for at most 200 people and a half a month. As for the weapons, I basically couldn't find a few that could be used. Not to mention the horses, not only are there few, but it would be good to be able to hump something, and as for using them for war, don't think about it.

"Lord Liu, since the delivery has been completed, I will leave first." Lu Qian said.

Lu Qian and the others saw Zhou Cang and the others glaring angrily, which made them tremble, for fear that these goods would come up and cut them with a knife regardless of the law and discipline. When the time comes, it's too late to reason with you, so it's better to make up your mind and go first.

"Okay, I won't send it." Liu Yong's face was calm and replied lightly.

The two left quickly, not daring to hesitate, for fear that Liu Yong would regret it.

Liu Yong brought these nearly 500 new troops into the courtyard and said to these people: "Those two people didn't tell the truth, right? If you dare not say anything, you can tell it, and someone will make the decision for you. ”

Liu Yong stared at these people, but no one came out to speak. Liu Yong didn't seem to be in a hurry and kept waiting.

It was almost dark, and there were sergeants next to them who began to eat, and the smell of rice wafted in, and those people kept looking in the direction one by one, watching some sergeants eat in large gulps, making their throats flutter and their stomachs growl.

"Want to eat? Tell me the truth, and I'll start eating right away. Otherwise, just wait. Liao Hua shouted at the recruits again.

"I say, I say." Finally someone couldn't help it, and the man burst into tears.

But Liu Yong smiled.

"My lord, those two have indeed lied to you. There were more than 2,000 people in total when I came, and on the way to Xinye, people kept being taken away, and there were only 500 people left here, and the few people who were missing were not killed in a brawl, but fought with them on the basis of reason, and were not willing to bow their heads, and were executed. ”

"Okay, let's go eat." Liu Yong nodded, he wanted to laugh, but he found that he couldn't laugh.

"Who else would say anything different?" Liu Yong asked again.

"I say, sir!"

"Me!"

……

Most of the people sent here are not from Xiangyang, and they are from poor backgrounds, and as a result, they were escorted all the way, and some of them were taken away by thieves, and those who came here were all weak. And most of those who were taken away had their relatives and friends, and Xue Yi told them that if they told Liu Yong, their relatives and friends would be killed. At the same time as the people were taken away, some grain, grass, weapons, and horses were also taken away.

Zhong Zhao also came back, and he led people to raid the small courtyard where these people were held today, and there were also some people who were imprisoned there, all of whom were people who had been arrested before, and were ready to be sent to the thieves' den.

Sending the rest of the people to dinner, Liu Yongtie blushed and was furious, these people simply exterminated humanity.
