Chapter 89 Arrangement of duties
At noon the next day, Yang Meng took more than 100 old and weak women and children of the Yang family who were hiding in the wilderness back to Qingshi Fort by mule and horse vehicles.
After Zhao Tiequan and the others heard the news, they all came to the city gate to greet everyone.
From a long distance, Liu Shengyuan jumped out of the carriage, came to Yang Zheng with a happy face, and arched his hand: "Congratulations to the owner of the village, you successfully won the bluestone castle." ”
Yang Zheng laughed and said: "This time we were able to capture Qingshi Fort, Mr. should make a great contribution, if Mr. hadn't shown us the way, we wouldn't have today's situation." ”
Liu Shengyuan waved his hand, "The owner of the village is serious, he just moved his lips and tongue, he can capture the bluestone castle, or the owner of the village is wise and powerful, and he is strategizing." ”
Amidst the laughter and laughter, everyone entered the city gate together.
At this moment, everyone's mood is very excited.
Especially when Yang Mazi led the big guy into the city, the faces of the old and weak women and children of the Yang family were filled with joy.
Since escaping from Yangjiazhuang, everyone has been wandering on the road for so many days, and from today, they are finally able to settle down.
Although Bluestone Fort is a small city, there are many houses and buildings in the city, and it can accommodate two or three thousand people casually, which is not a problem at all.
Although more than 200 people poured into Yangjiazhuang this time, they didn't worry about where they lived at all.
According to the inventory and statistics of Yang Mazi and others, there were originally more than 400 Khitans and 1,200 Han people enslaved in the original Qingshi Fort.
Now the Khitan people are dead and can escape, and at this moment, a large area of houses and courtyards in the city has been vacated, and now it is just for these people in Yangjiazhuang to live.
After the group of old and weak women and children of the Yang family had lunch and settled them down one by one, Yang Zheng ordered all the core members of the Yang family village to gather at the big stone house.
The big stone house, located in the center of the city, is also the largest and most extensive building in the entire bluestone castle.
According to those Han slaves, the big stone house was originally the residence of the Khitan chieftain, so the decoration inside was better than other houses in the city. Of course, compared to their previous Yangjiazhuang in Qingping Town, the big stone house was too simple.
However, it would be good to have a foothold now, where is there still the condition to dislike the bad environment here.
In Yang Zheng's words, this big stone house was originally an office building for the Khitan people, and now that the Khitan people are gone, this place has naturally become the office building of their Yang family.
The large stone house is divided into a vestibule and a backyard.
The front hall is spacious and bright, with many tables and chairs in it, and it must have been used by the Khitans to meet here for deliberations. The backyard was actually a few stone-built bedrooms, and the interior was messy and filled with a strange stench.
At this moment, in the spacious antechamber of the big stone house, more than a dozen people gathered.
Among these people are Zhao Tiequan, Yang Meng, Liu Shengyuan, Yang Fengnian, Yang Shiyuan, Yang Xiu and Yang Mazi.
Yang Zheng sat on the main seat at the end of the hall, his eyes swept over everyone, and then said slowly: "I temporarily gathered everyone together today, and I have some things to explain to you." ”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned and turned their eyes to him.
At this time, Yang Zheng continued: "At present, although we have defeated the Khitans and occupied the Qingshi Fort, so that everyone has a place to settle down, our current situation is still very grim, and the Khitans may come back at any time to take revenge, because we have robbed their territory, we must prepare early and strengthen prevention!" ”
Yang Shiyuan said nonchalantly: "The Khitans are all pus, there is something to be afraid of, if we can beat them once, we can beat them a second time." ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Dapeng and other young and vigorous clansmen shouted and agreed.
"Shi Yuan is right, those Khitans are birds!"
"With those weapons and ammunition that the owner gave us, I don't believe that anyone else can attack it?"
"We are not Khitans, now that the bluestone fort is in our hands, with those pistols and submachine guns issued by the owner, not to mention hundreds of Khitans, even if the regular army of Daliao comes, don't want to break through the city defense!"
"Yes, yes, don't worry, the owner doesn't have to worry, we are well-armed, and the enemy is not an opponent."
Seeing that Yang Dapeng's group of young people were so arrogant and conceited, Zhao Tiequan couldn't help but scold angrily: "You little rabbit cubs, you don't know the height of the sky, it's just been a day before you occupy Bluestone Castle, do you think you are invincible in the world?" Arrogant and ignorant characters like yours will suffer a lot sooner or later! ”
I have to say that Zhao Tiequan is still quite prestigious in the hearts of everyone in the Yang family, and when he scolded him like this, those little cubs stopped shouting one by one.
At this time, Yang Zheng waved his hand and said, "What Uncle Zhao just said is right, at any time, we must be cautious and not arrogant, otherwise we will be planted sooner or later." ”
After that, he turned his gaze to Zhao Tiequan, who was sitting on the right side, and said, "Uncle Zhao, from today onwards, you will be responsible for the city defense of the entire Bluestone Fort. ”
Zhao Tiequan was not hypocritical, and directly gave his hand to the order: "Yes, the owner!" ”
"Yang Meng, from now on, you will be responsible for the patrol discipline in the city, if anyone dares to disobey the rules and cause trouble in the city, he will be severely punished!"
"Yes, big brother!" Yang Meng got up and took the order.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Zheng turned his gaze to Yang Fengnian, "Steward Yang, from today on, you will be responsible for the logistics of the grain and grass of the entire Qingshi Castle, and continue your housekeeping duties." ”
Yang Fengnian's expression was dazed, and he immediately got up and arched his hand: "Yes, the owner!" ”
In the end, Yang Zheng turned his gaze to Liu Shengyuan, who was sitting in the farthest place, and said: "Sir, from today onwards, you will serve as the official of this bluestone castle, and in the future, the important responsibility of governing and securing the people in this bluestone castle will be handed over to Mr., and I hope that Mr. will not shirk." ”
Liu Shengyuan took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed to Yang Zheng, "I will definitely do my best to live up to the trust of the owner." ”
Yang Zheng nodded with satisfaction, looked at Yang Xiu and Yang Shiyuan not far away, and said, "Yang Xiu, Shiyuan, the two of you will be stationed in the town from today onwards and obey Mr. Liu's dispatch." ”
Yang Xiu and Yang Shiyuan were stunned for a moment, obviously not very satisfied with this arrangement.
Especially Yang Shiyuan, whose personality has always been more upright, muttered in a low voice on the spot: "Let me run errands with people, it is better to let me guard the city gate." ”
Yang Xiu, who was sitting next to him, secretly poked him with his arm, signaling the public not to talk nonsense.
In the following time, Yang Zheng arranged some duties for others, and then explained some precautions for city defense to everyone, and then let everyone leave.
Just when everyone left the big stone house one by one, Liu Shengyuan didn't leave for a long time, and suddenly, Yang Zheng's heart moved, knowing that he must have something to say.
