Feng Jian's words are obviously carrots and sticks, which are both sweet and threatening, it depends on how Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai express their attitudes!

Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai looked at each other, this garrison lord is also direct enough, continue to be the commander of the big fortune ship will have to take refuge in him, and obey the garrison in the future, but if he does not accept the conditions of the garrison, the consequences will never come out.

Faced with these two choices, the two did not hesitate much, and both knelt down in front of Feng Jian: "From now on, I will obey the orders of the garrison lord, and I will never disobey the yang and the yin, please accept it!" ”

Feng Jian took a step forward, picked the two up and said: "The two of you can choose like this, the official is very pleased, the official plans to buy a house for each of you in Pingdu City in the next few days, and the two of you can bring your family to reunite in the near future." ”

Hearing Feng Jian's words, Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai were both shocked, no matter what the purpose of the garrison was to buy a house for the two of them, just this act of putting themselves in the shoes of the two of them was touching!

Both of them are straightforward men, Zhang Wentai said directly: "Don't hide it from the garrison, if the garrison is unwilling to tolerate people, after the handover, the two will resign from this and make another plan." ”

Feng Jian smiled: "I didn't expect this official's approach to be unexpected by the two of you!" ”

Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai nodded solemnly, and Zhuang Yingchang said: "Since the garrison is willing to accept the two of us, the two of us will never be half-hearted, and the water division of the state flood camp will never be scattered." ”

Feng Jian nodded and said: "The official believes in the two, and the official will also select a group of people to join the state flood camp for training, you two must be prepared." ”

Zhang Wentai said: "Don't worry, the garrison will be handed over to the two of us." It is guaranteed that you will be trained to be a qualified officer and soldier of the Naval Division. It's just that now these more than 500 people have been living on the ship, and I ask the garrison to settle them as soon as possible. ”

Feng Jian nodded and said, "The Zhou Xun barracks in Pingdu City is the training place for the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division. The officers and men of our naval division can temporarily stay in the state flood camp. Considering that the state flood barracks are nearly ten miles away from the Jiaolai River, it is very inconvenient to come and go. This official plans to open up a field on the bank of this river to establish a new camp for our state flood camp. ”

Zhuang Yingchang nodded again and again and said: "The garrison lord is thoughtful, our officers and soldiers of the naval division beg for life on the water all year round, if the garrison is far away from the ship, it is difficult to respond in time in case of emergencies, and now the garrison lord's move to build a new camp site is indeed very wise!" ”

Feng Jian said with a smile: "Okay, now the two of you will gather the officers and soldiers of the Naval Division, except for the officers and soldiers on duty in the key departments, the rest are stationed in the Zhou Xun camp, and now there are almost no boats coming and going on the Jiaolai River." You don't have to make rounds every day. ”

In the scorching summer, standing on the bank of the river and looking at the river flowing slowly to the south, the breeze blows the coolness on the river surface to the people lingering on the bank, making people gradually dissipate the heat all over the body, and the two banks of the wide Jiaolai River have gradually become a good place for the surrounding people to enjoy the cool and play!

The two Daifuku ships became the object of onlookers, causing chaos around the Fukufu, and a day later, within two miles of the Fukufuku, they were controlled by a group of brightly armored soldiers. Looking at the lively people, they can only look at it from a distance, so there are still a steady stream of people rushing to the bank of the Jiaolai River, and soon some people on both sides of the river began to set up stalls and began to do business with the people who played.

Within a few days of the soldiers taking control of the guarded area, a wall was erected to completely separate the Daifuku ship from the surrounding area. What the hell is going on inside the walls? Ordinary people are not qualified to know!

Feng Jian quickly took a fancy to the two large mansions in Pingdu City, sent someone to inquire that the Cui family lived here, and directly sent Cheng Yousheng to find Cui Chengyong.

Facing this upstart in Pingdu City. Cui Chengyong has always been worried about Feng Jian's trouble with the Cui family, and Cui Chengyong once reached an agreement with Feng Jian. took the initiative to transfer some of the family's property to Feng Jian at a low price in exchange for the peace of the Cui family. On the surface, Feng Jian didn't trouble the Cui family again, but the lack of promise always made people worry.

As soon as Cheng Yousheng came to the door and said that Feng Jian had taken a fancy to the two houses, Cui Cheng didn't say a word, and immediately asked the Cui clan people living in the two houses to move out, and quickly vacated the houses, and according to the information given by Feng Jian, the two houses were transferred to Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai respectively.

On August 11 of the fourth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Wentai and Zhuang Yingchang respectively took their families and children to Pingdu City, and the two families happily lived in this large compound before and after.

On October 22, the fourth year of Chongzhen, the new battalion of the flood camp in Pingdu Prefecture was completed, and the original 500 officers and soldiers of the water division plus the 2,000 new recruits of the water division newly recruited by Feng Jian moved in. After more than two months of training, the 2,000 naval recruits have been waiting for how to operate the ship, as well as how to operate the ship's artillery, bird guns and other weapons freely.

At this time, the remaining eight ships promised by Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, had been allocated to the flood camp in Pingdu Prefecture, and several small ships were carried out on weekdays.

During this period, the two Dafu ships of the Zhou Xun Camp returned to the Dengzhou Naval Division for replenishment, and Feng Jian personally followed, and under the opening of the road with a large sum of silver, Feng Jian's two Dafu ships obtained the equivalent of ten Dafu ships for weapons and ammunition supplies, and collected a large amount of ammunition directly from the hands of some naval officers.

The officers of the Dengzhou Navy Division Battalion couldn't figure out why this garrison who ran out of the corner collected so much weapons and ammunition, but no one went to investigate it deeply, and no one could care if they wanted to spend it with more money.

On the twenty-fifth day of the fourth year of Chongzhen, Feng Jian convened all the high-level leaders under the gourd rock system in Pingdu Prefecture to conduct a year-end summary.

This year, Huluyan various mutual aid associations, in accordance with the requirements of the general mutual aid association to plant bud rice, obtained a huge harvest, the yield per mu reached 600 catties, the harvest of bud rice plus the rest of the various kinds of grains, Huluyan under nearly 100,000 people every household has surplus grain, the village people for the first time not worried about how to survive the winter......

There are a total of 61 mutual aid associations under the Huluyan General Mutual Aid Association, and each mutual aid association collects more or less public grain because of the different amount of land, but under the strict supervision of the Supervision Department, there is almost no phenomenon of malpractice for personal gain.

The Huluyan General Mutual Aid Association stipulates that all mutual aid associations except for 30% of the public grain collected as daily expenses, and all the remaining grain will be sent to the general mutual aid association, which will be controlled and dispatched by the general mutual aid association.

In the end, the mutual aid associations sent more than 420,000 stones of grain to the grain depot set up by the General Mutual Aid Association on the banks of the Jiaolai River. All the high-level leaders of Huluyan were shocked, who would have thought that the cottage villagers who couldn't even eat all year round would have a big increase in grain production after the commander set up a mutual aid association, which is a little unbelievable!

In addition to supplying the Zhenshan battalion and the officers and soldiers, the rest of the grain was handed over to Pan Zhaoying's Dayou Grain Store for trading.

Pan Zhaoying's natural business acumen, under his repeated operation, Huluyan's grain was soon transported to various places through the Jiaolai River for sale, and after the payment was recovered, it was handed over to the Huluyan General Mutual Aid Association 600,000 taels of silver.

This is another shocking piece of news, Huluyan can generate such a big income just by buying and selling its own grain for a year, and in the future, Huluyan's territory will expand again, and there will be more and more mutual aid, how much income will be generated!

In response to the idea of his subordinates, Feng Jian pointed out that the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association can be successfully implemented in Daze Mountain, because all the land is cultivated by the cottage households themselves, so the fields are allocated to them as their own land.

But outside the mountain, all the fields are owned, and it is impossible to distribute the fields to the people for free, so the formation of a mutual aid association outside the mountain must make a new attempt, so even if the Huluyan territory is expanded, the harvest of its own food is basically the current amount!

On the military side, after the Zhenshan Battalion continuously exterminated the remnants of the bandits in Daze Mountain, Feng Jian sent the three thousand headquarters to three places.

Xu Yannian's 1,000th headquarters was stationed at the headquarters of the Zhenshan Battalion; Zhao Shougang's 2,000th headquarters is stationed in Xiaohuakou, where the peak is the only way to reach Laizhou and Pingdu, and the geographical location is very important; Zhou Wei's 3,000th headquarters was stationed at Daqing Peak to deter the small group of bandits around him.

In addition, Jiao Keli's night team members have now reached 1,000 people, and Jiao Keli was also appointed by Feng Jian as the general manager of the night does not collect a thousand people, and Gao Daman, Ding Lian, and Liu Ergou were appointed as the general manager of the night not to collect a thousand people.

The members of the team were mainly sent by Feng Jian to Dengzhou, Laizhou, Changyi, Jinan and other places in Shandong to explore the customs and customs of various places, and draw maps of various places.

Shen Xiaoshan's Enemy Hunting Division has the strictest requirements for personnel, and there are still less than 100 people, but the soldiers of the Enemy Hunting Division of less than 100 people have received the most rigorous training, each soldier is at least a qualified cavalryman, and on this basis, he is proficient in various combat skills against the enemy, and the equipment of the soldiers of the Enemy Hunting Division is also better than that of other arms of the Zhenshan Battalion, and all soldiers are equipped with chain mail, iron mesh skirts, spears, waist knives, and poisonous darts.

It can be said that the Enemy Hunting Division is the most elite unit of the Earthquake Mountain Battalion, but unfortunately it has not been able to expand its scale because of the lack of war horses! On the issue of war horses, Feng Jian has been contacted by his father-in-law Chen Suowen, and heard that he can buy war horses from Datong, Shanxi, but unfortunately at this time Datong is being ravaged under the iron hooves of Houjin and Mongolian tribes, and the matter of buying horses has to be put on hold for the time being.

In just one year, it has developed into a group of such a scale under his command, and this group is still growing and growing, which requires constantly encroaching on the weak forces around him to strengthen himself.

Of course, the Zhenshan Battalion is now facing greater opportunities and greater challenges, which are the Dengzhou rebels such as Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng who have already launched a rebellion in Wuqiao.

After Kong Youde launched a rebellion under the coercion of Li Jiucheng's father and son, he turned his army and waved his troops back to Shandong, and at this time he had already captured the cities of Linyi, Lingxian, Shanghe, and Qingcheng, and was leading his troops all the way to Dengzhou. This news was sent back by carrier pigeons scattered in the local night. (To be continued......)
