Chapter 12 New Settlements
Chen Xiaochu drove the horse body and came to the gate of the village. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Looking straight ahead, a stone torii stands in front of the village lobby, which is very tall and eye-catching.
Many of the surrounding buildings are more than double-storey, which is much more beautiful than the first settlement building in the house. Not only that, but even the layout is neat, and the road inside is actually a stone-paved road.
"Finally, I saw a two-story building with a stone-paved road. Although the exterior walls of the village are also made of wood, they are noticeably much stronger and taller. Could it be that my initial delivery location was frustrated, so the first village was so bad? Chen Xiaochu pondered, it seemed that the level of the village had a lot to do with the teleportation location, no wonder Wei Chen valued this place so much.
"The patriarch of the Huang clan, Huang Xian, bring the people of my clan to welcome the arrival of the adults." A voice full of anger came, under the archway, a lot of people had already gathered, and a middle-aged man with Eguanbo saluted Chen Xiaochu who was riding a horse.
"Scholars?" Chen Xiaochu was stunned when he saw the other party's outfit, but he didn't expect to teleport out such a rare replicant. The few young people behind him, all dressed in polite manners, just glanced at it, and they could feel the breath of books lingering. Although they were all bowing their heads to him at the moment, Chen Xiaochu could clearly feel that they were all paying attention to him, and they were completely different from those farmers in the first village.
"The next test is to rule the nobles? Although I don't know as much as you do, I'm a person with a modern education, a local clan power, and there will be more and more replicants of all kinds in the future, and I can do it and rule all of them. Chen Xiaochu, who felt the pressure, pondered.
Turning over and dismounting, Chen Xiaochu walked up to Huang Xian and said, "Very good, all the affairs of this village are as usual, I will not interfere in anything, and I will not change any rules." Don't be nervous, take me on a tour first. After speaking, Chen Xiaochu turned to Liao Hua and said, "Liao Hua, take the army back, and then take out the tents and various marching materials in the arsenal, I will set up camp near Huangjia Village and establish a stronghold." ”
Liao Hua glanced at Chen Xiaochu, then nodded yes, turned the horse's head, and returned with the Yellow Turban Army and the militia group. The soldiers of the Han army were ordered by Chen Xiaochu to stay outside the village.
"Your Excellency, please come with me." After Huang Xian saw Chen Xiaochu's arrangement, he smiled and arched his hand.
"Currently available Civilization Points, 209." Chen Xiaochu, who had been paying attention to the screen of his watch, found that his civilization points immediately increased by one hundred points, and immediately understood that his decision was not wrong.
"Huang Xian, these people are all young talents in your clan, they are really extraordinary. Presumably, everyone learns to be rich and five cars, and they are only eight buckets high. Chen Xiaochu and Huang Xian walked side by side, observing the buildings of the village, and smiled without a trace.
"The adults have won the prize, and they are all unsuccessful chicks." Huang Xian said with a smile, but the young people who followed behind him were shocked when they heard this.
"I'll expand the new city here, I'll have the army stationed on the north side of the granary, and I'll build a camp in the future. The surrounding land should be reclaimed as soon as possible, and if there is anything lacking in the future, you can directly mention it to me, and now take me to the granary to have a look. Chen Xiaochu said with a smile.
Huang Xian nodded yes, and then led Chen Xiaochu through the neatly arranged farmhouses to the place where the grain was stored. The subordinates on the side opened the door early, allowing Chen Xiaochu to smell the familiar smell of rice grains from a distance.
"Very good, the stock of food is very abundant." Chen Xiaochu approached the inside of the granary, grabbed a handful of rice, and felt the abundance of grain in one granary after another, and felt a lot more at ease. On this planet, if there is no food, you don't have to wait for your watch to clear it, and you will starve to death first.
Whether it is a clone or a replicant, they all have to eat and sleep, and replicants have more needs, and they are not the kind of objects that can be arbitrarily dominated by the seeds of civilization.
"How many ploughing cattle are there in the village?" Chen Xiaochu then asked, although he only knew a little about farming, he also knew that if there was no ploughing cattle, no matter how advanced the farming tools were, there would be limited ways to improve efficiency.
"There are 100 ploughing cattle, and every household uses them in turn, so rest assured, except for sacrifices, we will not slaughter ploughing cattle at will." Huang Xian immediately replied.
"Well, now take me to visit other places." Chen Xiaochu continued.
Accompanied by Huang Xian, Chen Xiaochu visited this museum-like village that can be regarded as a standard folk village, from the temple sacrifice to the school, and even a simple Taoist temple, this novel feeling made Chen Xiaochu have the illusion of traveling.
After rejecting Huang Xian's suggestion to arrange a new residence, Chen Xiaochu got to the point: "Patriarch Huang, to tell you the truth, I really need to form an army now, not only for myself, but also for the sake of protecting the peace of your life. The private soldiers of your clan are quite brave, and I still lack some counselors on the march, and I think that your sons are very literate, and if they join my army, I will definitely use them again, and the rewards in the future will not be treated poorly. ”
Huang Xian, who heard this, glanced at his sons and found that they were all eager to try, and immediately sighed in his heart.
"That's it." There were bursts of footsteps, and when he saw Liao Hua, who had returned from outside the village, and drove towards the north of the village with his army, Huang Xian made a decision.
"The Huang family is willing to rely on the guidance of adults, but the sixth son is still young and frail, so I am afraid that he will not be able to serve adults." Huang Xian saluted Chen Xiaochu.
"Oh, Patriarch Huang is relieved, I won't force it." Chen Xiaochu looked at those elegant young men who were about the same age as himself and said, "Are you willing to work for me?" In the future, the opportunity to become more than 10,000 people is right in front of you. ”
Except for the sixth son of the Huang family, who did not dare to move under his father's eyes, the other five sons knelt on the ground with their own thoughts and said: "I am willing to serve the adults and serve the dogs and horses." ”
"Don't kneel on the ground, get up." Chen Xiaochu continued: "A gentleman has six arts, you must not be a person who can only hold a scroll and shake his head, I have already visited the arsenal of your Huangjia Village, and it is a very good thing to have a martial style." Since you are willing to join our army, I will give you the first order to gather the private soldiers of the clan at once, and then select the strongest and strongest one hundred men to assemble at the northern outer wall of the village. Later, I'd like to see you all dressed up. After Chen Xiaochu finished speaking, he slowly walked out of the village.
"Congratulations, sir." Everyone bowed their hands in unison.
Chen Xiaochu, who walked out of Huangjia Village, breathed a sigh of relief, although he relied on the pressure of military force to make the other party compromise, but he finally achieved his goal. With so much food in his own hands, he finally has the capital that can be consumed by others.
Liao Hua is already arranging for the Yellow Turban Army and the militia to set up tents and cut wood. The rudiments of a camp soon appeared to the north of Huangjia Village.
"If I had more stone and manpower, I guess I could build a small fortress right away. On the other hand, the militia will eventually be disbanded, and it is impossible to maintain it for a long time, and if they continue to delay their farming work, they are afraid that it will arouse public resentment. Chen Xiaochu pondered.
After ordering the clones to help build the camp, Chen Xiaochu called Lin Ji to his side and said, "Lin Ji, after the camp here is built, you will take the militia back to the village, and then announce something." After Chen Xiaochu looked at Lin Ji's expression, he continued: "The militia will be temporarily disbanded, but you have to select ten people from the militia group to be my pro-soldiers, and no one will go to the families of these pro-soldiers to collect grain, not only that, but in the future, the grain will be sent to their respective families as military salaries, and you are the same, from today onwards, you will be the captain of my pro-soldiers, understand." ”
After Lin Ji listened carefully, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Xie is promoted, and Lin Ji will do his best to protect the safety of adults in the future,"
"You don't have to kneel around all the time." Chen Xiaochu helped Lin Ji up and said, "Let's continue to work, just get things done, I will see it in my eyes." ”
After letting Lin Ji leave, Chen Xiaochu walked up the hill, casually found a felled tree stump and sat down, and looked at the people in front of him who were in full swing and covered the camp and fell into thought: "The last time I fought with Geluo, I was shot down the wooden wall by an arrow from a nomadic rider, but the soldiers of the Han army did not react at all. The defect that clones can't act without orders is still very obvious, and if they can't give orders in the case of syncope, it's over. It is necessary for replicants to be pro-soldiers, and I hope these people can be trusted. The scene of the terrible battle flashed through his mind, and Gro's handsome and bewitching face resurfaced, followed by the clones with corpses all over the place, and blood all over the ground.
"Gro, wait, I will definitely make you pay, you don't want to be wiped out by other nomadic civilization seeds in the north, I will become stronger, strong enough to return this humiliation to you." Chen Xiaochu thought in his heart.
"My lord, the scouts are here, there is a battle in the north, do you need to send troops?" After Liao Hua suddenly received the report of the Yellow Turban Army scout, he immediately rode to find Chen Xiaochu and asked.
"There's a battle in the north? Could it be a civil war with the seeds of nomadic civilization? Liao Hua immediately asked everyone to stop what they were doing and gather all their troops. This time, I'm going to be a fisherman. Chen Xiaochu immediately ordered, thinking that the opportunity to earn points had come.
"Lord, according to the scout's report, the scale of the battle is only about a hundred, I'm afraid there is fraud, the lord needs to be cautious, you can use a small number of troops to test it first." Liao Hua did not immediately carry out the order, but continued to speak.
"A clash of a hundred or so people? Will there be fraud in it? Chen Xiaochu thought about it and found that there was indeed such a possibility, and then said to Liao Hua: "In this way, you take the Yellow Turban Army and me over, and let the soldiers of the Han Army and the militia stand in Huangjia Village." ”
Although the existence of the Yellow Turban Army has given Chen Xiaochu a lot of combat power, but in terms of military discipline, Chen Xiaochu does not have much confidence, although Liao Hua has repeatedly assured, but Chen Xiaochu still does not dare to take risks, every time he goes to war, he must take it with him, so that he can rest assured, otherwise once there is a looting incident, when Chen Xiaochu must enforce military discipline, who can make a decision from the heart of the army and the people, such a scene will only make Chen Xiaochu in a dilemma. What's more, the presence of a banditry army in the village would only make people uneasy, but the clones and militias had no scruples about that.
"Yes, Liao Hua takes the order." Seeing that Chen Xiaochu accepted his proposal, Liao Hua was still very happy, and immediately began to rush to the people who built the camp, and the orders were quickly implemented.
"It's so much easier to have a general to assist. No wonder Han Xin said that the generalissimo commanded a million troops, and only ten generals who obeyed orders were needed. This feeling is really profound. Looking at the people who quickly gathered, Chen Xiaochu felt that he was still very lucky, on this planet, he no longer knew how many civilization seeds had lost their lives, and he was still lucky to live.
