Chapter 109: Co-optation

"But what do we do now?" Hu Taigong pondered for a moment and said: "If it was before, our Dulonggang was just three Zhuangzi, even if it was beaten down, there would be no oil and water, but now it is different, Jing'er has soap in his hands, and it is not an exaggeration to make gold every day, although Liangshan has 100,000 yuan, but sooner or later it will be used up, and when the time comes, these people will definitely fight the idea of Dulonggang, so that we will have fewer manpower." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoYou have to prepare for this! ”

"Yes, so, I need to recruit soldiers and horses outside of training." Li Jing nodded, gritted his teeth and said: "We want to recruit those rangers and outcasts to provide them with money and join my Zhenwei Dart Bureau, I don't know how many outlaws there are in the rivers and lakes, let them join us, use military law drills, and strive to train an elite soldier in a short time, as long as the elite soldier is in hand, Liangshan is not our opponent." ”

"Now that you've decided, go for it! I'll give it to you. Li Ying nodded and said: "If you can make such a big career, I can rest assured, you are at least better than me, and Li Jiazhuang will definitely be carried forward in your hands." ”

"Thank you, father." Li Jing was happy in his heart, although he knew that Li Ying would support it, but such support was rare.

"Jing'er, although my Hujiazhuang has few assets, it also supports you, how much do you want, try to speak, and all the bankers in the village will be at your disposal." Hu Taigong said suddenly.

"Father-in-law?" Li Jing looked at Taigong Hu in surprise, but he didn't expect Taigong Hu to support him so much.

"What you said is right, Chao Gai is different from Wang Lun, Wang Lun will just shrink in Liangshan, but Chao Gai is a tiger, after getting Liangshan, it is when the tiger roars deep into the mountain, the tiger will come down the mountain at any time, I have no bad seed in Hujiazhuang, it is impossible to be a thief." Hu Taigong looked at Li Jing and said: "Hu Cheng is just a middle-aged person, it is impossible for him to protect Hujiazhuang, in this case, it is better to be two families together, together to deal with Liangshan, Li Jiazhuang and Hujiazhuang form a horn trend, I want to see if Chao Gai really dares to attack my Dulonggang." ”

"Father-in-law, rest assured, Li Jing will definitely not disappoint his father-in-law." Li Jing didn't expect that Taigong Hu trusted him so much, and hurriedly said gratefully.

"It's good to be nice to Sanniang in the future." Hu Taigong waved his hand indifferently and said, "I'll go and arrange a guest and come back at noon." ”

"Send Brother Hu." Li Ying personally sent Hu Taigong out of the study.

"I didn't expect my father-in-law to be so supportive of me." Li Jing said with a smile.

"The old fox one, he doesn't want his inheritance to be taken away by the bandits, plus you and Sanniang have become a good thing, Hu Cheng can't be a Chinese person, how is it your opponent, Hujiazhuang will be annexed by you sooner or later, in this case, it is better to hand it over honestly, and let you be grateful, it is a good choice for Sanniang and Hu Cheng." Li Ying said disdainfully.

Li Jing was silent for a while, but he was not angry in his heart, maybe this is human nature! It's just that with Hujiazhuang's money, his plan will be much easier, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy!

"Now that you have the Zhenwei Dart Game, everything is much more convenient, but remember, you can't go overboard." Li Ying commanded in a low voice.

"Father, rest assured." Li Jing just replied softly, the order of the Great Song Dynasty has not been completely broken, at this time, it is natural to be cautious, so as not to be caught by others.

The father and son talked in the study for a while, how to recruit troops, how to organize, how to train, etc., all of which required a huge plan, but the father and son could only set an approximation, all of which needed to gather everyone's strength and discuss together.

Let's say that Hu Taigong returned to the guest room, gathered his son's daughter, and told his decision, Hu Cheng had not yet spoken, Hu Sanniang was surprised and said: "On weekdays, my father takes Hujiazhuang so seriously, why do you contribute it at this time." ”

"It's not all you, otherwise, how can you become someone else's vassal, and you, if you have half of Li Jing, I don't need to be like this." Hu Taigong glared at Hu Cheng and said: "Li Jing's general trend has been achieved, and the rest is okay as long as it is done step by step, but Li Jing is too scheming and ambitious, and I don't know what to do with my Hujiazhuang in the future?" ”

"Ambition? In our Dulonggang, where is there any ambition, just a rural farmer, even if it becomes a dart game, what can it do? Hu Cheng said indifferently: "I think my brother-in-law will definitely be a rich party in the future, and my Hujiazhuang will definitely not lose." ”

"Stupid." Hu Taigong glanced at his son, but sighed, according to Li Jing's arrangement, there will be five hundred darts in the general county town, and it is nothing to scatter them in the entire Great Song Dynasty, but gathered together, how many people and horses will it be, at least there is no 100,000 army, what does Li Jing need 100,000 troops for? Hu Taigong thought of Fang La in Jiangnan, Wang Qing in Huaixi and Tian Hu in Hebei for a while, and they were even more powerful than these three people, because Li Jing was developing in secret, and by the time the above reacted, no one could eliminate Li Jing. So Hu Taigong said that Li Jing was scheming. It's just that he has already gotten on the thief ship, and Hu Taigong can't get off anymore, so he can only barely support it. These things should not be known to others, lest they leak out, and the problem will become even more problematic.

At noon that day, Li Jing made the recruitment regulations in his hand, Li Ying looked at the above regulations, and couldn't help asking: "Jing'er, is there more money for each dart player than fifteen per month, I know that the imperial court forbidden army is only fifteen per person per month, and those box troops are even less, and the township soldiers don't have them at all. ”

"It's not a lot for people to work for 20 times, this is just an ordinary executioner, we can't treat them as ordinary village soldiers, I just want to train these soldiers and horses as a forbidden army." Li Jing smiled and said: "For those excellent people, we have to give more rewards. If we want to deal with Liangshan, we have no other way than to use well-equipped and well-trained to deal with these thieves. In fact, such an army can still be supported, not to mention that our swords and guns are almost half sold and half sent, which will help us reduce a lot, and in the future, the imperial court will still need us to deal with Liangshan, and it will definitely allocate military funds to us, so it is still possible to support it for a period of time, and after destroying Liangshan, there are still Wang Qing, Fang La, and Tian Hu waiting for me to eliminate it? ”

"You." Li Ying looked at Li Jing in horror.

"Father, this time I went to Beijing, the biggest feeling I had was that the empire was setting, in Beijing, although it was claimed that there were 800,000 forbidden troops, in fact, it was good to have 100,000 people, these forbidden troops did not train at all on weekdays, they only knew how to oppress good people, and even some armies actually opened shops to run small businesses, how could such a forbidden army deal with those thieves, not to mention Fang La and others, so in the end, the imperial court found that there were no available soldiers in its hands, and it could only rely on our townsmen and border troops." Li Jing said proudly: "The child is going to use this dart master to make a great fortune." ”

Li Ying's face flushed for a while when he heard this, and finally sighed and said, "It seems that my father is old." ”
