Chapter 9 Arrangement
"Brother Chen, just now I went to the cottage granary armory to check, and this time I grabbed 1,741 stones, 147 knives, 122 guns, 50 bows, and 13,000 arrows." Ah Niu reported next to Chen Qiong in a low voice.
"Straight lady thief, I didn't expect Duan Hong's gang to grab so many weapons, if it weren't for the master's plan to take the cottage, the killer would come in, I don't know how many sons and daughters would be lost." Zhou Cang couldn't help but feel a cold sweat when he heard what Ah Niu reported to Chen Qiong, if it weren't for Chen Qiong luring Duan Hong out of the village, taking Duan Hong's more than 40 pairs of iron armor, and then using these armor soldiers to deceive the door of the village, kill the generals and fight hard bows, just with these dozens of bows and tens of thousands of arrows, I am afraid that I may not be able to enter the cottage if I fight people out.
Yu Tong, who came over next to him, also looked like this, so many weapons and fish scale armor, placed in the previous Yellow Turban Army, were definitely the elite of the elite.
Chen Qiong showed a happy face at this time, grabbed Ah Niu's shoulder and asked, "Ah Niu, how can you count these things and be so accurate." β
"Brother Chen, there used to be a gentleman who lived in our village for two years, and he taught me something." Ah Niu whispered, "Ah Niu is thin and weak, and he can't help Brother Chen a lot, so he can only do these small ways." β
"This is not a small path, you have helped Brother Chen a lot." Chen Qiong held Ah Niu's shoulder and laughed and said, "In the future, you will take care of the granary and armory for me, and you will be responsible for the entry and exit of things, and Yu Tong, you will lead a team of people to be responsible for the security of the granary and armory." The future survival of hundreds of our people is at stake, and you must not take it lightly. β
I didn't expect this randomly selected Ah Niu to have such a skill, reading and writing in this martial arts era of the Three Kingdoms is a great ability, as for counting, counting the treasury, managing in and out, can also be regarded as a capable official. Ah Niu's ability is especially important among these hundreds of illiterates.
Ah Niu nodded vigorously, from the dilapidated village to the present, it has always been Brother Chen who has been taking care of their siblings, and now he can help Brother Chen, Ah Niu is very excited.
"Whoa!" Yu Tong happily accepted the order, and the responsibility for food, grass and weapons has always been an important responsibility, which shows that Chen Qiong really did not take the previous offense to heart, and Yu Tong's heart only fell at this time.
"Yuanfu, how many soldiers do we have under us now?" Chen Qiong asked.
"My lord, I can't get this warehouse." Zhou Cang scratched his head a little bit, and let him go into battle to kill the enemy, but after a few battles, where can he figure out how many people he has under him now?
"Brother Chen, there are 673 people in the village now, including 241 women and children, 35 disabled, except for Ah Niu's sisters and brothers, 496 soldiers can fight." Ah Niu accurately reported the number jΓΉ.
Chen Qiong asked about some other matters, and Ah Niu also answered like a cow, in a clear manner, Chen Qiong found out that he had picked up a treasure, "Yuanfu, we have forty-three pairs of iron armor together now, wearing strong people, equipped with war knives, and choosing another fifty people, equipped with war bows, and training, and choosing the best rider as a cavalry to defend me." Then two hundred men were chosen, and a hundred were swordsmen, and a hundred were spearmen. Yu Tong is a hundred spearmen general, and He Chong leads the sword soldiers. The archers, the armorers, and the cavalry are led by Yuanfu you. Defend for me. β
Chen Qiong paused for a moment, and said, "Ah Niu, go and help me see, if there are any Lang Zhong among these people, help me treat those wounded, and then see if there are carpenters and blacksmiths, I have a lot of use, and I also command the cooking of horse meat, the accumulated grain in the village can be eaten for more than four months, and there is no worry about lack of food for the time being. β
"Lord, there are many weapons, why don't you gather more soldiers to strengthen your momentum?" Zhou Cang asked puzzledly, "In this battle, it is natural that there are many people, and they are overwhelming. β
"When the Tiangong general Zhang Jiao raised his troops, all the states and counties gathered to respond, and there were no less than hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans, but in the face of tens of thousands of officers and troops fighting in the east and west, hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops fell apart, and the bloody examples are not clear enough, the soldiers are expensive, but not much more expensive." Chen Qiong smiled indifferently, after all, there are not many people in this era who can eat enough, and it has reached the limit to select three hundred people from these nearly five hundred people to ensure their food and clothing. Three hundred people, who are well equipped and have high morale, it is not difficult to break the demoralized five hundred.
"Soldiers are noble, but not many." Yu Tongpin sighed at Chen Qiong's words and found that although he had not had much contact with Chen Qiong, Chen Qiong was well versed in the way of using soldiers, and what he said was also very knowledgeable. Then he and Zhou Cang and others took their own orders.
Arrange for her subordinates to be busy, Chen Qiong changed into gray-brown clothes, she is still not used to the clothes worn by this ancient, or the set of jeans in her bag with a long-sleeved T-shirt is comfortable, but it is too unusual in this place. In this era for more than 20 days, except for a short hair that is still outstanding, and a mouthful of classical Chinese, there is not much difference from the ancients.
Under the escort of several armor soldiers, Chen Qiong came to the relatively clean grass in the cottage, the middle-aged couple hurriedly protected the little boy behind them, the middle-aged man was gorgeously dressed and looked dignified, and said angrily to Chen Qiong, "Thief, robbing the officers and soldiers without baggage, and when a certain person goes back, he will sue Taishou to send troops to exterminate the people such as Er." β
"Presumptuous!" Seeing the middle-aged man insulting Chen Qiong, how to be willing, he drew his knife forward with anger on his face, and only waited for Chen Qiong to give an order, and killed several people in front of him on the spot.
"Hugh is rude, step aside!" Chen Qiong stopped a few soldiers, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Brother Tai to stop his anger, a certain Chen Qiong, Runan Yang'an clan, in order to avoid the poison of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, took the township party to take refuge in the mountains. The thief of the cottage here has been broken by a certain place, although a certain Han family is kind, but has been unable to repay, and has to spend years in this mountain. β
After speaking, Chen Qiong sighed, she had a lot of talents, and she couldn't get a grudge to serve the court.
The couple's face changed when they heard this, and then they were overjoyed, and the middle-aged man said respectfully, "It turns out that Brother Chen is also interested in the Han family, in Xia Xunshuo, just now the words collided, and I also asked Brother Chen to forgive the sin." β
"Those who don't know are not guilty, how can Brother Xun be wrong." Chen Qiong said magnanimously, laughed three times in her heart, and secretly said that if Lao Tzu was not adventurous and went to acting, he would have to win an Oscar.
"Those who don't know are not guilty, Brother Chen's words are subtle, which is convincing." Xun Shuo repeated this sentence, and God was respectful.
That is, the words that are still widely circulated after thousands of years are of course secluded, Chen Qiong secretly laughed in her heart, no wonder she always heard adults nagging in the past, as long as you are educated, you are not afraid to go all over the world. In fact, as long as you have culture, you are not afraid to travel through the Three Kingdoms.
"Brother Xun is serious, come, a certain has just broken the cottage, and now he is killing horses and cooking, torturing the people, and two jars of good wine have been found in the military village, Brother Xun is now free, between the mountains and the wilderness, it is rare to meet a person who can talk, come, let's go eat together." Chen Qiong enthusiastically pulled Xun Shuo over, "As for Mrs. Zun and your son, I also arranged for someone to send them to eat." β
"Thank you for that." No longer guarded in this small thatched hut, Xun Shuo thanked happily.
