The last time I went to Yelang Country, Shuangzui Mountain suffered heavy losses. Of the team of 100 people, less than half came back alive. The mountain bandits who were originally on the side of the earthquake were almost wiped out. Gou Tianming took some food and copper coins from Su Ren, and went back to the cottage to appease them, so as to avoid the end of being torn apart.

Hawking held a shuttle dart in one hand, wearing leather armor from Hou Jian, and stood majestically in the middle of a group of five big and three thick mountain bandits, which attracted the envy of many people.

Gou Tianming asked Su Rendao: "Sir, are these all given to us?" ”

Su Ren nodded: "Yes, from today onwards, you are the guards of Wenling Salt Industry Company, I have already agreed with the county honor, everyone has written off the past before, as long as you are willing to follow me, you can walk on the street with a swagger, and you don't have to worry about being arrested again." ”

"Really! Can I go home and see my grandmother? A stout man standing in the front row asked eagerly.

"Okay! Absolutely! You can also send your grandmother to Lao Junguan, and if you have my Su Ren to eat, you will never be hungry for her. ”

The man hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Ren: "Mr. Su, I will repay you for your great kindness and virtue as a cow and a horse in my life." ”

Su Ren smiled and helped the man up: "You don't have to be a cow or a horse, we are brothers, we are all Han, and your parents are also my parents." ”

"Dead power!"

Su Ren Dayue, people's hearts are available. Even these mountain bandits still have morality, they are still good to the ancients, and they are much simpler.

Replace with armor. I didn't expect the original mountain bandits to become dead soldiers who could fight in an instant, and training was the key to making people reborn. Since that day, Lao Junguan's grain has been continuously sent to Shuangzui Mountain. Su Ren is here every day, and he has to train these people. It can be regarded as leaving a way back for himself and Lao Junguan's people, even if he can't gain a foothold in the Han Dynasty that day, with these people to protect him, he will not die without a place to be buried.

Su Ren didn't know how soldiers should be trained, he only understood that if he wanted to be able to fight, he had to have a good body. A large bowl of white rice and a large piece of braised pork are delicious to eat. A meal can make these precarious mountain bandits feel that they are in heaven at the moment.

The mountain bandits were originally honest croppers, and they were never afraid of hardship. After so many years of banditry, they are not afraid of death and bloodshed, the only thing they lack is obedience and the belief in what they are fighting for.

On the second day of training, some people didn't catch up with Dianmao.

Gou Tianming carried a knife and drove those sleepy-eyed guys to stand in front of Su Ren: "Sir, these boys just don't clean up, and if they beat them hard, they will know everything." ”

There were three people in total, including the man who cried and knelt down for himself yesterday. Several people knelt in front of Su Ren, bowing their heads and saying nothing.

Su Ren snorted coldly: "Raise your head!" I already told you yesterday that from that moment on, you are not working for others, you are doing these things for others, you are doing these things for yourself, forget it, I will not talk about you, give each of them a hundred dollars, let them go down the mountain. ”

"Sir, this ......" Gou Tianming didn't expect that because these three guys were snooze, they were going to be driven away: "The three of them are all good, and when Yelang was around, they were the ones who saved the lives of all of us." ”

"I know, that's why I gave them a hundred dollars."

"Please, sir, don't drive us away!" The man from yesterday hurriedly knelt down and climbed two steps, Su Ren had already promised to take care of his mother, he had nothing but strength, and it was impossible to support his mother.

Su Ren shook his head: "You are not mountain bandits now, you are the guards of my Wenling Salt Industry Company, you saved a lot of people last time, but I don't want you to kill everyone next time, you just ate two full meals and became like this, do you think I can't eat too much food?" ”

Everyone looked at this side, watching how Su Ren disposed of these three people.

"Sir, give them a chance! They'll definitely change! Gou Tianming pleaded again: "Just drive them away like this, no one will take them in, they will be collected by other mountain bandits, and they will return to the past." ”

"No, because there will soon be no mountain bandits in this Wenshui County."

The heads of the three touched the ground: "Sir, please leave us, right?" As long as you stay with us, we admit punishment! Please, sir! ”

Su Ren was unmoved, and said to Hawking: "Accept their armor and send them down the mountain immediately, this is an order!" ”

Hawking nodded, and under the gaze of everyone, he stripped the leather armor on the three of them and collected their weapons. Sighing and letting the three of them go down the mountain.

Gou Tianming's face was full of anger, and a sword slashed on the big tree beside him, and all the bronze swords did not enter the tree, and shouted to the others on the side: "Look at what, continue training for me!" ”

Seeing off the three men, Hawking returned dejected.

Su Ren held a cup of tea and stood under the tree looking at the group of mountain bandits who were training to walk in the square. There were only forty or so people, and their steps were not neat, and there was no distinction between left and right, which gave Su Ren a headache.

"What? Do you think I'm doing something wrong? Su Ren didn't look back and asked Hawking.

"A little, we have fewer people, and three more left."

"Have you ever heard of killing chickens and monkeys?"

Hawking shook his head.

"Legend has it that in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a person in the Jin State who domesticated a lot of monkeys, the monkeys were clever and did not obey discipline, one day, this person caught a chicken, slaughtered it in front of the monkeys, the monkeys saw that people would really kill, and also saw blood, and they would never dare to jump up and down in the future, and they were all in order when facing the monkey tamers."

"You go down the mountain immediately, let the fourth brother take these three people in, and find a job in the brine spring for them to do, our Laojunguan is now the fragrant gluttony of the whole warm water, everyone knows that as long as you enter the Laojunguan, you can eat and dress warmly, and you are reluctant to go, but this group of mountain bandits used to be free, if you don't use this trick, something will inevitably happen in the future, understand? Go ahead! ”

"No, I'll do it!"

Training in full swing in the square. Although there are still people who make mistakes in the pace, and some people can't tell the difference between left and right. After what happened in the morning, the mountain bandits became a lot more obedient, and there was no longer anyone laughing in the queue, and there was nothing they couldn't order, whether they walked, ate, or slept and rested, they all came according to Su Ren's requirements.

Training every day for a whole month. Gou Tianming also unconsciously felt the benefits of this kind of training. The brothers who used to be lazy have now become energetic, and the whole person seems to have a sense of rebirth. Walking and walking, sitting and sitting. Those petty thieves are gone, and there are a lot less flamboyances. As long as you stop in the square, you really feel like a soldier.

Su Ren let out a sigh of relief, and finally looked like a soldier. These people are his lifesavers and seeds. His plans are huge, and this is just the beginning.

Looking at the rows and rows of neat dozens of people in front of him, Su Ren said solemnly: "Very good, this is the appearance of a guard, but it has not yet met my requirements, from today onwards, although it is a guard, we must use elite soldiers to demand ourselves, because in the future, we will fight against the soldiers of Yelang Country, only if we are stronger than them, can we defeat them, expand our business routes, and make our family life better." ”

"From today on, you are one person, one is prosperous and one is lost, remember that we are all brothers, brothers are like siblings, whoever moves my brother, I cut off whose siblings!"

"Gou Tianming is your team leader, Hawking is your deputy team leader, the rest of the people are five people in a team, ten people in a team, don't look at our small number, I dare to guarantee that there is no opponent in warm water!" There is no faith! ”

"Invincible! Invincible! The voice was loud, which made Su Ren a little excited.

Waving his hand, the shouting stopped abruptly: "The first task is to clean up all the mountain bandits around Wenshui, we welcome those who want to join, and eliminate those who don't want to join on the spot, we are all Wenshui people, for the sake of Wenshui's fathers and villagers, each of us has the responsibility to protect Wenshui!" ”

"Protect the warm water! Protect warm water! ”

"Of course, this is also a test for you, even the mountain bandits can't be defeated, how can you fight with the army of Yelang Country? You still have a month, train hard in the next month, work hard for the trade routes, for the people! ”

"For the trade routes, for the people! For the trade routes, for the people! ”

A good army must have a firm belief, which Su Ren still knows. That's why he came up with the slogan for the trade route and for the people. Although it is much smaller than those slogans of later generations, it can give these mountain bandits a sense of belonging. Who will say the false big empty words, and I don't know how many people will believe it when they say it.

Cui Jiuming is conscientiously doing his own business, coming to Laojunguan once a month, bringing a large number of goods and transporting about the same bags of salt. Originally, I was worried that the imperial court had obtained the secret of the cloth bag salt, and it would immediately be promoted throughout the country. To his delight, there was no news at all. I sent someone to Chang'an to inquire, and even the nobles in Chang'an ate bags of salt bought from him.

Su Ren and Cui Jiuming sat face to face, each of them had a cup of tea in front of them, and took a big sip, Cui Jiuming closed his eyes and felt the fragrance of tea: "It's still delicious in this Laojunguan's grass soup, and the taste in other places is always wrong." ”

"Then Brother Cui has ever thought about selling this kind of grass?"

"Hah!" Cui Jiuming hurriedly put down the cup and slapped the table: "I have had this idea for a long time, but Mr. Su didn't mention it, how dare I!" ”

"Huh!" Su Ren smiled: "Actually, the good things I have here are not only this bag of salt and grass soup, but also a lot." ”

"Oh?"

"It's all from the south, good furs, gems, medicinal herbs, everything, I just don't know if Brother Cui is interested?"

"South?" Cui Jiuming naturally knew what kind of place this south was, and he was afraid of Su Ren's identity, so he didn't dare to say it clearly: "I will go home and discuss this matter with my father, these things must be too eye-catching." ”

"This is natural, I am waiting for the good news from Brother Cui."
