This time I left, I really left.

As the last truck full of grain and grass drove away from the gate of Zhujiazhuang, the operation to rescue Zhu Fu was successfully concluded.

The various loot seized by breaking Zhujiazhuang this time is enough to make the leaders of various positions in the cottage excited for a while.

For the developing Liangshanbo, there is no doubt about the urgency of money and grain. As a military division group that is on the rise, the raw materials needed to build sea ships, warships, individual equipment (yellow birch bows, god arm bows, strong crossbows, leather armor, etc.), as well as indispensable strategic resources such as horses, plus various materials required by other cottages, all need to be purchased in large quantities for Liang Shanbo, who has no intention of breaking the rules of trading, and this requires money.

And food, as the foundation of human survival, is the decisive factor of the stability of the cottage, although the cottage seized a large amount of grain in Niutou Mountain, but the daily consumption of Liangshan Bo is also very huge, Wang Lun led the troops and horses to attack Zhujiazhuang before the cottage grain storage is only four months of stock.

Therefore, it can be said that the people who should be most happy to break Zhujiazhuang this time are Du Qian and Jiang Jing. It's hard to be a "poor" family, who doesn't want to have more money in their hands?

The grain counted out this time totaled 480,000 stones, which was 20,000 stone less than the grain and grass seized when Song Jiang broke Zhujiazhuang, but this amount was enough to make Wang Lun satisfied. This is the largest seizure of money and grain in a single transaction since the establishment of Liangshan Village.

In addition to the huge amount of grain and grass, there are also gold, silver and jewelry worth 180,000 copper coins. At this time, the purchase price of large quantities of grain was about half a copper coin per stone. From this point of view, although this Zhujiazhuang is not rich and rivals the country, at least it is also a huge family.

At this time, with this huge amount of money and food, it is undoubtedly the urgent need of the cottage, and I believe that Du Qian will wake up with a smile when he dreams.

Another happy person should be Meng Kang.

I believe that after he sees the large number of captives, what he is anxious about at this time is definitely not the problem of insufficient manpower, but the headache of how to digest them all.

I wish the 2,6700 Zhuang guests with knives and spears under my subordinates. There are also ten battalions of the Yunzhou Forbidden Army (eight foot battalions and two horse battalions), adding up to nearly 7,000 people, Wang Lun does not intend to release them here, lest they fall into the hands of Hou Fa, who regards him as a confidant, and becomes a force to deal with Liangshan.

As for how to arrange these 7,000 people plus the original captives of the cottage, Wang Lun had a rough plan in his heart, but it would take time to realize it for the time being. The temporary use of these captives was either sent to Meng Kang, Tang Long, and Hou Jian, or they were incorporated into Tao Zongwang's engineering brigade, and it was not excluded that a small number of them were worthy of training. There is a possibility of being incorporated into the sequence of copycat soldiers.

The benefits brought by the surrender of the ten battalions of the forbidden army are far more than the above-mentioned manpower advantages, but also the standard equipment they are equipped with. For example, the Divine Arm Bow, this time nearly a thousand were captured, although the proportion of damage is somewhat large, but as long as there is an intact king of this individual long-range weapon, Wang Lun can be handed over to Tang Long to imitate, and then this kind of big Song weapon that makes the Jin people tremble can be distributed in their own team on a large scale.

Another takeaway worth mentioning. It was four or five thousand pairs of leather armor of various qualities, more than two thousand bows and arrows, and crossbows, plus hundreds of thousands of arrows, and seven hundred or so horses.

In the past few days, the commanders of the battalions of the Ma army have been fighting for this batch of captured bows and arrows. I can't wait to break my head. The same was true of the infantry army, everyone stared at the hundreds of undamaged divine arm bows, and took turns to grind their mouths in Wang Lun's ears. Wang Lun was the most reluctant and had to follow egalitarianism. You have me, I have everyone, but the focus is slightly biased towards Hao Siwen's battalion. The sacrifice made to Hao Siwen is obvious to all. No one questioned this matter, and they all tacitly agreed.

After distributing the captured leather armor, in addition to the naval army in Liangshan, the other horses, infantry, and garrison battalions have achieved that each pawn is equipped with exclusive leather armor, and finally bid farewell to the embarrassment of several people in the early days of the cottage.

In addition, there are more than 2,000 pieces of leather armor with poor quality and handiwork, Wang Lun plans to hand them over to Tang Long for repair, and after the quality is passed, he will hand them over to the naval battalions after the most reckless.

It's a pity that Luan Tingyu is a good man!

Wang Lun looked down at his new mount and shook his head and sighed. People still have to be content! As the saying goes: If you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry elm. It is extremely rare to be able to receive Zhang Qing and his two lieutenants this time.

Because of the addition of these three old generals of the imperial court, the cottage horse army was officially expanded to six battalions, with Zhang Qing as the main general, Gong Wang, the flower tiger, and Ding Desun, the middle arrow tiger, as the deputy generals, and the whole battalion was composed of 900 people, which were selected by each of the three generals in the old three battalions, plus 450 people from the reserve soldiers of the cottage horse army.

It's just that in this way, there are only two or three hundred horses left in the reserve army of the horse army, and it is not enough to maintain daily training.

"Congratulations, brother! This time down the mountain, there are more than 13400 strong men in the cottage, I have seen them one by one, all are strong young men, if they are trained well, they are the best candidates for the expansion of the cottage army in the future! Xiao Jiasui quickly turned around from the front team, looked for Wang Lun, and said with a smile.

Wang Lunwan smiled and said, "Xiao Daguan, have you noticed that among the people who voluntarily followed me and others up the mountain this time, seven or eight out of ten are people with foreign surnames, and the real surname Zhu is only two or three out of ten!" ”

"Zhu Chaofeng is not a good stubble, his three sons are not things, it is inevitable that there is some domineering in this Zhuangzi, there is still some incense between the same clan, and people with foreign surnames encounter things, but there is no affection at all!" Xiao Jiasui shook his head and said.

At this time, Zhang Qing, who was talking to Huang Furui, sighed when he heard this, and said: "I have heard for a long time that the owner of the village cherishes the people, and I have not been blessed to see each other in person in the city, and I don't want to get what I want this time and get a glimpse of the feat of the cottage!" Seventy thousand stones of grain were distributed at one time, and the owner of the village still had the courage! ”

"Isn't it? Not long ago, the people in the Zhuangzi regarded my Liangshan people and horses like wild beasts, now look at it! Ding Desun pointed to the front team, all of them were Zhujiazhuang farmers who had taken refuge in Liangshan, and they looked like a group of black and oppressive, and I was afraid that there were not as many as three or four thousand people.

Xiao Jiasui smiled, he didn't have any doubts when he heard about the Liangshan grain in the past, but after experiencing these things personally, he completely lost his heart to this benevolent and righteous cottage, just like Ding Desun, who had just joined, in a very short time, he regarded the cottage as "my Liangshan" from the bottom of his heart.

"The cottage that is willing to give ten stones of grain to each household of people who don't know each other, how can it not be worth dragging everyone to drag their families and talk to each other? Everyone's eyes are not blind! Gong Wang also spoke. This time, more than 10,000 households in Zhujiazhuang, in addition to the 3,000 households in Zhujiazhuang, the other more than 7,000 households received generous gifts from Liang Shanjun, which was ten times different from the grain distributed by Song Jiang when he broke Zhujiazhuang in the original trajectory. Immediately, hundreds of farmers were like-minded.

"It's just that I heard that the cottage has a lot of population at this time, I don't know how the owner of the village arranges these family members?" Gong Wang asked again. It's just that he didn't wait for Wang Lun to answer, so he heard him say to himself: "At this time, if you have a piece of land in your hand, it will be distributed to everyone to plant on weekdays, so that you don't have to worry about military rations!" ”

Wang Lun saw that he and Xiao Jiasui glanced at each other, and the two of them smiled heartily. Then everyone told some anecdotes about the distribution of food on the road, and from time to time there was a burst of laughter.

……

"That's what Daddy told me, don't act rashly! Little brother, do you think that with our current strength, we can help this Liangshan for half a point? I saw a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes and bright eyes crowded among the people watching the excitement around him, and whispered to his brother beside him.

"How can the people be so ignorant that this guy has bought people's hearts!" I saw that the younger brother was full of anger, and he was angry.

Seeing that his brother's words attracted the sideways glances of passers-by, the elder brother hurriedly pulled him aside and said earnestly:

"The sages have clouds: if you touch me, you will be the last, and if you abuse me, you will be revenge! It's not that the people are ignorant, it's the parents and officials sent by the court to various places who are ignorant, and they think that the people are easy to bully, and they have never taken them to heart! Therefore, this Liangshanbo played the banner of the way of heaven, and immediately responded, so that at this time, the climate was cultivated! ”

"What then? Is it possible to recruit them? It's not that Hou Zhizhou hasn't tried! The result? Not to mention the loss of soldiers, even the soldiers and horses in Benzhou are reversed! It can be seen that this person is ambitious and talented, and he is a laughing stock! "That brother hates iron and can't make steel.

"Brother don't be too harsh, then there is something unspeakable in Houzhizhou! If it weren't for the bandits, this man would be a good shepherd, and my father would have valued him very much! Besides, he is also an elder of you and me, so you must not be rude! I saw my brother persuading my younger brother.

When the younger brother saw his brother carrying out his father, he didn't argue at the moment, but just asked, "Brother, is it possible that I will come over with people to see the world, and then go back like this?" ”

"Otherwise, what can we do, the little force we brought will not only not cause any substantial damage to Liangshan, but may provoke him and make him attack our city to vent his anger. When the time comes, it won't be trapped Daddy! "Just listen to the brother.

The younger brother sighed when he heard this, and the elder brother saw that he was a little discouraged, and cheered him up: "At this time, seeing this Zhujiazhuang situation, I have been inspired by some inspiration, and I have some ideas in my heart, but I have to ask my father for advice when I go back!" It's just that if we can succeed by luck, we won't have to worry about it alone! It's just that this matter takes a long time, and it will be difficult to achieve results for a while! Alas......"

After listening to it for a long time, the younger brother still didn't know what the elder brother was talking about, but the elder brother didn't explain, but just ordered: "You don't need to change your outfits, or ask the brothers to pretend to be a caravan and go home!" ”

The younger brother said "um" and walked out, the elder brother looked at Wang Lun who was talking eloquently with heavy eyes, and immediately lowered his head to avoid it, and said in his heart: "The white-clothed Xiushi, there will be a period later!" ”。

……

Wang Lun didn't notice anything unusual on the side of the road, and some of them talked and laughed and walked with the leaders in the direction of Shuibo. At this time, Liangshanbo's trip to Zhujiazhuang ended, but for some, the story was just beginning.

Today I went out of the city during the day to go to the grave, and I came back very late. I'm sorry for the late update for this chapter! (To be continued......)
