said that Shangguan Yu lived in this Chilong Mountain and was promoted as the leader of Chilong Mountain.

Shangguan Yu was bent on building the bandits of Chilong Mountain into a regular army, changing the name of the bandits to the righteous army, and naming this righteous army "Xia Army".

Moreover, the so-called "big boss and second master" have all been changed to modern titles.

Shangguan Yu served as the commander-in-chief of the Xia army, Yan Chen and Xia Xiaomi served as deputy commanders, and Long Xu served as chief of staff. The 12,000-strong Xia army was organized into a division with three brigades, each of which had three regiments.

And select outstanding talents in the team to serve in the corresponding positions.

After eating and drinking at noon, in the afternoon, Shangguan Yu convened everyone to hold a meeting in Juyi Hall, and Juyi Hall was renamed the headquarters because of Shangguan Yu's arrival.

The first topic at the meeting was the food issue, and Long Xu complained again: "Lord, as the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, and we are cottages, oh no, the division headquarters, there is not much food left, and it can't last for a few days." ”

Shangguan Yu said: "When I was eating just now, I was still thinking about this problem. ”

After that, he took out a large handful of house deeds in his pocket and put them on the table, and the leaders of Long Xu and the cottage were also surprised to see so many contracts.

Shangguan Yu said: "These land deeds and real estate are all real estate and real estate in the capital, if they are sold together, they can be worth about 200,000 taels, you find a few trustworthy brothers, take these contracts to the capital, and convert them all into cash, and then take these silver to buy grain and war horses and iron tools." ”

Long Xu picked up these contracts and looked at them, and said, "My lord, there are so many, but ......"

"But how?" Shangguan Yu asked.

"However, when marching and fighting, of course, the more money, the better." Dragonbeard told the truth. "200,000 taels of silver seems like a lot, but if you really want to use it, it will be very fast."

Shangguan Yu nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, otherwise, it's too late today, tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow night, you accompany me to the capital for another visit, and we will raise money." ”

Xia Xiaomi knew how Shangguan Yu raised money, and he must be going to gamble again.

"The subordinates want to know how the lord raised money?" Long Su asked.

"You don't have to worry about this, in short, I can get you here, this time I want to raise another million taels, no, this time I'm going to do the second biggest, five million taels!" Ha ha! ”

Hearing Shangguan Yu say the huge figure of five million taels, the leaders who were doing it were all dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

Shangguan Yu said again: "I took a look, our brothers' food doesn't seem to be very good, after getting the silver, the first thing is to improve the brothers' food, then buy food, buy horses, buy iron, and then recruit troops and horses!" It all takes money! ”

Since Chilong Mountain is far away from the capital, Long Xu will select a few loyal brothers, hand over the contract to them, and take them to the capital to sell first.

Before leaving, Shangguan Yu called out to these brothers and specially explained: "My contracts are a bit unknown, so if you encounter danger, you must put personal safety first, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Several people shook their heads blankly.

Shangguan Yu said: "Why are you so stupid? If you sell these properties, don't be targeted by officers and soldiers, and the contract will be lost and you will flee for your life, will you understand this time? ”

A few people nodded, but one of them said, "But there's a lot of money." ”

"You're a money fan? The hell is gone, and you still need money to have a fart? Shangguan Yu scolded, "Listen, there is nothing more important than life, you are not allowed to lose your life for money, and you are not allowed to be arrested, once you are caught, they will torture you and ask us about the information of Xia Jun, do you understand?" ”

"Yes, my lord, if you are targeted, you will run for your life immediately, and if you are caught, you will commit suicide." Everyone answered in unison.

"Suicide? I'll go, there's no need for that, right? If you really want to be caught, I will find a way to save you, but that will be more troublesome, in short, you just be careful everywhere, go ahead. ”

"Yes!" The brothers agreed, and left the cottage with a dozen minions.

Sitting on the top spot, looking at the brothers in the conference room, and looking outside, Shangguan Yu suddenly felt like a hero in Liangshan.

Xindao, if I were Song Jiang back then, I would never have recruited An, and I would definitely have to fight a new world, with the strength of Liangshan back then, it was completely possible to overthrow the Song Dynasty and establish a new dynasty.

On the next topic, on the matter of the governance and rectification of the cottage Xia Army, Shangguan Yu repeatedly emphasized that since he wants to get on the right track, the previous habit of mountain bandits must be completely eliminated, and it must be thoroughly rectified in terms of training and ideology.

After an afternoon meeting, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Since there are Xia soldiers guarding the cottage all around, it is relatively safe in the cottage, and Shangguan Yu no longer sleeps in a room with a few people, and each has a single room.

Nothing happened overnight.

The next morning, before dawn, army training began, and from this day on, the Xia army had to be on the right track.

After eating the rebellion, Shangguan Yu took Yan Chen and Xia Xiaomi, one left and one right, to walk in the barracks to patrol, and Long Xu also accompanied him. As I was walking, I heard a commotion outside the school grounds.

Shangguan Yu asked, "What's the matter?" ”

A small soldier ran over and said, "Lord Qiqi, ladies and gentlemen, there is an old country couple crying outside. ”

"What's the matter?" Shangguan Yu asked.

"If they don't say it, they say that they must see the lord before they can say it."

Shangguan Yu said, "Bring them over." ”

Long Xu said: "No, lord? What if they are spies? ”

"Okay, just bring it."

After a while, the old couple was brought over, and after the old man looked at everyone, he suddenly pulled the old woman and knelt down with a puff, and cried loudly: "O king, please save my little dream?" Please! ”

Let's kowtow vigorously to his wife.

Shangguan Yu walked over to help them up and asked, "Don't worry, talk slowly, what's going on." ”

The old man cried: "The son of the prefect of Dongshan passed by my village and saw that my daughter Xiaomeng was good-looking, so he took her away. We can't beat it, I heard that there was a new righteous king on the mountain yesterday, so with the heart of trying, I came to the mountain to ask for help, the king of Wanwang pity us, save my daughter, my old couple is willing to donate all the money in the family. ”

Shangguan Yu glanced at the two of them and said, "Then how long has the prefect's son been gone?" ”

"Half, half an hour," said the old man.

"Okay, I'll help you get your daughter back."
