Hearing Zhou Zhongju say that when the bandit had a bad reputation, Yang Xingguo wanted to say in his heart that since the bandit's reputation was not good, then call Yang Jiazhai Yang Jiajun to the outside world. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, as soon as this idea entered Yang Xingguo's mind, it was given up by Yang Xingguo himself.

There are many bandits in the three northeastern provinces, and when they are still bandits, their existence will not attract too many people's attention.

However, once those bandits under his command become the Yang family army, it will be different.

As the de facto ruler of the three eastern provinces, Lao Maozi would never allow the three eastern provinces to have other armies except for the Russian army and the imperial army.

As long as he plays the name of Yang Jiajun, not only Lao Maozi, but even the imperial court, which does not have much say in the three eastern provinces, will not let himself go. When the time comes, he will really be driven to a dead end by them.

After putting this idea behind him with a wry smile on his face, Yang Xingguo immediately turned his attention to the matter of recruiting troops in front of him.

Since both of them agreed to his proposal, Yang Xingguo no longer hesitated, and directly decided: "Since this is the case, then we will do it...... Starting tomorrow, the second master and the second uncle, respectively, will bring silver and a few brothers down the mountain to recruit soldiers, and one person will find a way to recruit fifty young men and women back.

In Wang Hu's view, as long as the strength of the cottage can be increased, any method can be used.

However, the second uncle Zhou Zhongju doesn't see it that way, after all, Zhou Zhongju is still the big housekeeper of the entire cottage.

As soon as Yang Xingguo's decision was spoken, Zhou Zhongju opened his mouth and retorted: "Big boss, have you ever thought that although we Yangjiazhai can recover our strength in a short period of time...... However, with my current family background in Yangjiazhai, at most one year, the family foundation accumulated through hard work will be exhausted...... So, I don't agree to do this, and I've been a bandit for so long that I've never heard of a precedent for doing so......"

After seeing Zhou Zhongju's fierce reaction in his eyes, Yang Xingguo did not get angry because of this, but asked Zhou Zhongju rhetorically: "Second uncle, as far as I know, our cottage still has more than two thousand taels of silver, plus the four thousand taels that the Japanese are going to send, that is more than six thousand taels ......."

"My initial idea is to maintain the total strength of the cottage at around 150 people, and then expand it step by step......

"So, these more than 6,000 taels of silver are enough for us to use for more than half a year...... As for more than half a year later, I don't believe that for such a long time, we have not had a tael of silver. Don't forget, although we give our brothers money, we are still bandits, and what do bandits do, there is no doubt that they go out to rob food and silver......"

At Yang Xingguo's insistence, the next day, the two of them left the cottage with the silver.

As for Yang Xingguo himself, he just took advantage of this time to use his own methods to train the more than 20 veterans left in the cottage.

It is the closest to Yangjiazhai, but there is also a mine of almost eighty miles, with the arrival of night, the absenteeism with unclothed clothes and thin muscles has left the heavily guarded mining area of Lao Maozi and returned to the shack at the foot of the mountain......

The first target chosen by the second master, Wang Hu, happens to be here......

Just after the absenteeism returned to their respective shacks, Wang Hu directly broke into one of the shacks.

The two absentees who were preparing to rest in the shack saw the two outsiders who suddenly broke in, and they subconsciously wanted to let out two exclamations.

However, when Wang Hu showed off the Mauser pistol he was hanging from his waist, the two absentees immediately became panicked.

At this time, Wang Hu no longer hesitated, and said directly: "Don't worry, I won't kill you or rob you...... Besides, I just want to rob you, and you don't have anything to rob ......."

"I'm a bandit, you know it...... I have forty taels of silver here, and those who are willing to go up to the mountains with me to be bandits, these forty taels of silver are twenty taels for each of you. Not only that, but the cottage also gives you a salary of two taels of silver every month......"

"Of course, even if you go up to the mountains and become bandits, you don't have to worry about your family being implicated...... If I'm not mistaken, you're all strangers, and here, no one knows who you are and where your family is......"

"Twenty taels of silver for settling-in expenses, and two taels of silver per month, is enough for your family outside the mountain to live a good life...... Unlike now, when you risk being buried in a mine to mine, your meager wages are not enough to feed your family......"

"The last thing I want to say is that even if you don't want to, I won't embarrass you...... However, don't be delusional to talk about this matter and ask the court and Lao Maozi for a silver reward...... Don't forget, we are everywhere and omnipotent, and if you dare to betray us, you and your families will be retaliated against sooner or later......"

After listening to Wang Hu's words, the first reaction of the two absentees was to be silent, because they didn't believe that the bandits would be so good, not only gave them silver as a settlement fee, but also gave them a salary much higher than that of the new army of the imperial court every month.

Of course, Wang Hu knew what they cared about, after all, the bad reputation of bandits outside the border was already known to everyone.

However, Wang Hu has a way to deal with them.

After a pair of eyes quickly flashed an imperceptible sneer, he directly placed forty taels of white silver in front of the two of them.

Man dies for money, and birds die for food.

For these absentees who have been living on the line of life and death, the temptation of silver is absolutely unprecedented.

Not to mention more, the twenty taels of silver in front of them will take almost two years to earn for these absentees.

What's more, after he really became a bandit, he could still receive two taels of silver every month......

Two taels of silver, it is impossible to earn it in two months of hard work at the risk of his life in the mine......

Therefore, when forty taels of silver were placed before them, the two absentees were moved......

However, one of the absentees still asked with a skeptical expression.

"This brother, this silver is really for us...... After going up the mountain, they will really give us two taels of silver every month......"

Wang Hu smiled and replied firmly: "As long as you agree to go up the mountain, these are true." Not only that, after going up the mountain, you can eat fragrant and spicy food every day...... I can't guarantee otherwise, after going up the mountain, you will become fat in a month at most......"

After getting Wang Hu's assurance, a trace of firmness appeared on the faces of the two absentees.

Under Wang Hu's gaze, after the two absentees glanced at each other, they seemed to have discussed it, and replied at the same time: "Okay, let's follow you, when will we go up the mountain......

At this time, the smile on Wang Hu's face was even stronger.

After patting the two of them on the shoulder, he replied with a satisfied face: "Very good, from now on, you will be my Wang Hu's brother...... I will give you three days, secretly send the silver back, and after three days, gather in Yangjiazhuang under the pine ridge, and when the time comes, I will take everyone up the mountain together......"

"However, before you go, you have to help me to see if there are any other people who may go up the mountain in the middle of the absenteeism......"
