Chapter 25: Zhang Yang is here
"Report ......"
The Thorn Marquis rushed to the hall and bowed when he saw Zhou Cang.
"Lord Qiqi, Zhang Yang has come to Shangdang County to recruit soldiers."
"Oh! Is it coming? Zhou Cang's expression perked up when he heard this, and then he waved his hand to the assassin Hou and signaled him to retreat.
"Come on, quickly call Wenshan and the others to come to discuss the matter."
"Yes, my lord." A guard walked away from behind him and headed out of the hall.
……
"Now that everyone is here, then we must prepare well......
"According to the Tanmalai report, the general He Jin has ordered his henchmen to return to their respective territories to recruit village warriors and form an army, it is conceivable that the imperial court's suppression of the local area will weaken soon, if there is an accident in the imperial court, then the day of the princes will come......"
"This is our opportunity, the opportunity to rise......" Zhou Cang glanced at the ignorant crowd, maybe the only one who could think about the long term was Xue Wenshan.
Xue Wenshan's expression was solemn, his brows were tightly locked, as if he had seen the scene of the princes' separation, and the scene of the White Tiger Village being wiped out under the iron hooves of the princes.
"Lord, wouldn't it be nice for our brothers to gather in the mountains and forests?"
Pei Yuanshao said nonchalantly.
"In troubled times, it may be okay to gather in the mountains and forests, but can you be a thief in the mountains and forests for a lifetime?"
Zhou Cang has a headache for Pei Yuanshao, and letting him go into battle to kill the enemy is definitely a good hand, but if he is asked to analyze the situation, it is simply playing the piano to the cow.
The grass gathers in the mountains and forests, and the heroes return to the north. If a man stands in heaven and earth, how can he return it empty-handed.
"A dignified seven-foot man, when he is holding a sharp blade, he has made some achievements in this troubled world, so he will not live in vain, and now that the troubled times are coming, my brothers should seek a way out for themselves, a road to the sky......"
"The road to heaven?" Xue Wenshan repeatedly muttered these four words in his heart.
"Lord, just say, what do you want us to do? I, Xue Baihu, am stupid, I didn't think about it so much, in short, I will cut whoever the lord asks me to cut......"
Xue Baihu's injuries are already healed, and his martial arts have improved slightly.
"Yes, my lord, since you think it's an opportunity, you can't be wrong."
Die-hard fan-Li Ergou also responded that since Wang Tieniu's death, there are not many Yellow Turban brothers who have been following Zhou Cang since the Yellow Turban Uprising, and as their former Yellow Turban leader, what he said is estimated to be stronger than the role of the holy decree.
"Lord, now the ...... of the Yellow Turban" Xue Wenshan suddenly changed his words and said.
"Lord, now that the Yellow Turban Rebellion has failed, the local officials have expropriated and extorted, making the people miserable, and the eunuchs of the imperial court have dictatorship, controlling the government, so that the court is mediocre and incompetent, and the local forces are recruiting family members, once the world changes, these family doors will become strong soldiers for hegemony in the world, at that time, we want to reread it, and it is estimated that it will be very difficult to loot at that time......"
Xue Wenshan didn't say any more, everyone had an experience, it was easy to loot property in the past, only brothers needed to get together, wave the flag and shout, and they could loot a lot of property without seeing each other, but now each clan has its own private soldiers, and it is almost impossible to loot property without fighting.
"Lord, we should change, occupying the mountain as king is not a long-term solution, I wonder if the lord already has an idea......"
"In today's world, big fists are the last word, as long as we are strong, we can have clothes, food, and women to sleep in."
"We have surrendered more than a dozen cottages, large and small, and the number of cottages is increasing, which is a manifestation of the increase in strength, but this is far from enough......"
Zhou Cang's tone sank slightly, revealing a hint of bitterness in his tone.
"In the battle two months ago, we can be said to have suffered a great loss of vitality, more than 6,000 brothers, only less than 2,000 people remain, but the fighters are only a little more than 1,000, we need to think carefully why we are 6,000 against 500, our number is almost more than ten times that of them, but we still suffer heavy losses, why is this?" Zhou Cang glanced at everyone.
"Because we don't have professional training, no combat skills, we only care about slashing and slashing, and we don't know how to cooperate, why can tens of thousands of officers and soldiers defeat hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers led by Zhang Jiao, because the Yellow Turban soldiers are a group of farmers who only know how to farm and can only brute force, and the army of the imperial court, they are long-trained elites, with one block of ten, one block of hundreds of elites, and there is only one way to defeat them, that is, to be stronger than them......"
……
There was silence in the hall, and everyone was thinking about something.
"Nowadays, there are a large number of troops in various places, which is a godsend for us, we can blend into the army to learn the training methods of the army, and train our own team according to the gourd drawing scoop......"
Ten days later, Zhou Cang's roar could be heard at any time in the White Tiger Village training camp.
"Give Lao Tzu a little spirit......"
"Pay attention to the action ......"
"You don't have a fucking meal......
"...... with a little force on your arm"
"...... like this"
In the past ten days, Zhou Cang has learned in the military training in his previous life, probably all of which have been used on this group of bandits, and at the beginning, it was as if he had dressed a beggar with a famous brand, which was nondescript, and the situation was slightly better in the past two days, and there was a little bit of the taste of recruits.
"Wenshan, in two days, I am going to go to the party with the tiger and the two to join the army first, Zhang Yang is the confidant of the general He Jin, with our skills, we may soon be able to mix with the position of captain, and then there will be more things to contact, I hope to get the method of military training."
"Lord, just the two of you? In case ......"
Zhou Cang looked at the worry in Xue Wenshan's eyes, and was very relieved, and gently patted Xue Wenshan's shoulder.
"Don't worry, it's easy to do bad things when there are too many people, after we leave, the size of the cottage will be handed over to you, the plan to attack the surrounding cottages can be slowed down, mainly based on military training, Lao Pei is not ambiguous, the only thing is that there is not enough here, the two of you are one and the other, just match ......" When Zhou Cang mentioned Pei Yuanshao, he pointed to his head, which means that Pei Yuanshao's brain is not enough.
"Please rest assured, Wenshan will work together with Lao Pei to strengthen the cottage during the absence of the lord......"
"Well, I believe you." Zhou Cang grabbed Xue Wenshan, who was about to bow down to him.
"By the way, you find a confidant to open some small business in Shangdang County to cover people's eyes, so that we can exchange news in the future......"
"Yes, my lord."
Three days later, Zhou Cang and Xue Baihu set off for Shangdang County with only five days' rations on their backs.
For this reason, Zhou Cang also deliberately changed his look, which used to be a black-faced beard, but now there is only one 'black face' left.
