After Zhou Zhe selected one hundred and fifty sergeants, Lao Ling immediately asked the auxiliaries to go back to their respective battalions, and the one hundred and fifty sergeants were immediately taken away and resettled by the officers of the logistics battalion under Lao Ling, and the news revealed to Zhou Zhe was that these one hundred and fifty were the supplementary sergeants of the light cavalry battalion, and the rest did not say much, and did not say much about where they lived, and Zhou Zhe, who was confused by the second monk, did not care, and he did not need to be so clear about the management of some columns in Longquan Pass, anyway, some were placed.

The day passed like this, and when I returned to the camp in the evening, I found that the camp was already a lot more lively, and the dozens of people taken away by Wang Rui were also resettled by logistics, saying that the barracks would be prepared in a few days, and the courtyards of each station would be filled to facilitate management, and some yards would be relocated, but fortunately, Wang Rui's small courtyard did not need to be moved, otherwise it would be another meal.

"My logistics staff said that you also selected soldiers?" Wang Rui asked.

"Well, I said it was a back-up light rider. Is there anything wrong?"

"It's nothing! Generally, if you are selected, it will be counted as each camp, and you will be a light cavalry in the back, and now there will be a battalion, Camp Commander Zhou!" Wang Rui made a rare joke.

"Come on, make fun of me, you don't know how many catties and taels I have, you have me, if you don't directly accept me and Lin Xiaoer, he and I estimate that we can't even compete with an auxiliary soldier now." Zhou Zhe was full of emotion.

"If you are a refugee, you are also the head of the refugee!" Liu Dabeard patted his ass.

"The head of the refugees, I guess I'll have to starve to death before I can be reincarnated. You all came out of the auxiliaries?" Zhou Zhe was curious about their path to joining the army.

"That's not it! Either we go out so vigorously, or the light cavalry camp, the old cow. Liu said with a big beard.

"I was born as a ranger, and I was selected by General Qi back then. "Wang Rui is very proud.

"I am an auxiliary, at that time, Lao Ling asked for twenty auxiliaries, I didn't fight, I just told the twenty who were selected, Lao Tzu was rotten, and now I will cut the meat to you, whoever dares to learn from me, I will let him." ”

Zhou Zhe remembered that this sergeant was the guy nicknamed Dabao who taught him to ride a horse, and then Dabao stretched out his arm and gestured very vigorously: "Alas! Look, this is the one." At that time, Lao Ling said, count me as one. Isn't it amazing?"

"How old is Dabao this year?" Zhou Zhe gave him a thumbs up and asked.

"Twenty-five, my son is seven years old. Horseback riding is like playing. Originally, Zhou Zhe just wanted to ask about age, whether he was married, and so on, but as a result, my son rode a horse and played, and Zhou Zhe's face turned black.

"Can your son kill sheep? I can be killed with one arm at the age of seven!" Lin Xiaoer said, and Dabao was a little sneering, "Then you are in it!

Fighting is not learning to do something serious. ”

"That's good! I'm a good man in ten years!" said a sergeant.

"That's all good! I still want to think about how to knock down those orcs in this life, so that we can go back and continue to raise horses, I like to raise a horse in this life!"

"Then your son still rides a horse every day! Your wife still chases and fights every day. Lin Xiaoer said. Everyone laughed.

"Dabao, where did your family come from?" Zhou Zhe asked.

"Shandong Dao, my father's generation came over, my grandfather is a ringing horse, my father is too, we were going to grow up to be a ringing horse. Later, it didn't work! We caught horses everywhere in the new heavenly gate, caught one and killed one, my father couldn't stand it, so he took my mother and me to the north. Later, my father became a ranger, and died in a few years, if it weren't for the handsome food, my mother and I wouldn't have survived!" Dabao was also embarrassed when he talked about this.

"Dabao has been riding horses for generations, no wonder he is so powerful. Someone teased.

"Ringing horses?" Zhou Zhe was curious.

"That's not it, there is no way to live, if you don't rob it, you can't get it, dozens of households in a village grab those mountain gates to transport food, and some mountain gates are just a few that can be beaten, and they can grab a wave is a wave, and some villages are poorer than our village, and they have to starve to death if they want to rob them." ”

"Hungry to death, don't you grow food?" Zhou Zhe was even more curious, what he robbed was not gold and silver.

"Don't plant food for us, only allow us to plant spiritual grass, and then take the spiritual grass to exchange food with the mountain gate. In some villages, the land belongs to those sects, who grow grain and then exchange it for us, and those who grow grain without permission are found to be hacked to death. "Dabao's fear and disgust for the people of Lingcao and Shanmen are extreme, and Zhou Zhe can see it from his face. He also heard that in this world, in addition to wolves eating people, spiritual grass also eats people, and they all eat naked.

My ancestors were ordinary people, planting spiritual grass every year, but there were still people starving to death, and then the checkpoints were opened to allow them to go north, and it happened to be a disaster year, so they came north here. How good it is here! Only grain is grown, and spiritual grass is not allowed. ”

"Not allowed to plant spirit grass?"

"That's not it, whoever planted spiritual grass in the field was going to kill his head, this is not a joke. ”

"It's so powerful, how did you exchange the spirit grass for food before?"

"We have good land in Shandong Province, one acre of land can grow twenty-five spiritual grasses, can be exchanged for one or two silver, and then buy two hundred catties of grain, that was when I was a child, I don't know now. ”

"That's pretty much the price we have. "A group of people talk about the price of the world, Zhou Zhe probably calculated, one acre of spiritual grass can only be planted twenty-five plants, no matter how much it grows, it is still the same growth, for one or two silver, the price is relatively stable, but the grain, it purely depends on whether the major sects are black-hearted, and a tael of black-hearted silver sells you for one hundred and fifty catties, and you have to bear it. Such a concept, Zhou Zhe roughly calculated, a family of three, if calculated according to three acres of land, but barely make ends meet. In addition, after the cultivation of spiritual grass, it can often attract all kinds of wild animals, as well as losses and casualties, and only ghosts can people live well.

"The spiritual liquid is made of spiritual grass?" Zhou Zhe asked. The people next to him saw that he was silent and silent, and when they saw him ask another question, a sergeant who knew about it answered

"It's not an ordinary errand to make spiritual liquid from spiritual grass, when I was in the auxiliary barracks before, there was a soldier ancestor who did this, and then the whole door was slaughtered, a small bottle of spiritual liquid. The sergeant gestured with his hand, "It's just a loss, it takes a thousand spiritual grasses to refine, and it costs a hundred taels, and I can't calculate the account, anyway, it's quite profitable." The processing fee that ordinary people give to his family is ten taels of silver for a bottle. Ten taels of silver! I was a soldier for about fifteen taels a year. If you know that, that's a big deal. After listening to this, Zhou Zhe went back to the room and took out a spiritual liquid from the baggage, Xin Chai gave the silver money to the family last night, but the spiritual liquid was not given, and when he entered the house, he found that Xin Chai was actually there, just waving at him on the beam of the room.

"Is this worth a hundred taels?" Zhou Zhe took out the loot he got after encircling and suppressing in the small village.

"That's it!" Wang Rui nodded and replied, I don't know.

"We have captured a lot this time, and we have never counted the merits of the war, Wang Rui, do you distribute?" Zhou Zhe actually meant to let Wang Rui distribute. He really didn't know how.

"This thing is not easy to do for the time being! After a few days of military merit evaluation, our distribution will be reasonable, and Lao Wei and his hundreds of households have been busy recently, and they will have to move and replenish manpower later, so let's divide it when the matter is decided! There is still a month before the Chinese New Year, so it's too late. ”

"Well, it's almost dark, and I'm going to rest. Zhou Zhe returned to his house from scratch. took out the burden and began to count the loot, thirty bottles of spiritual liquid, two bottles were used by Xin Chai, and everyone also saw Xin Chai's contribution, the silver is one thousand three hundred taels, which is very considerable, four thousand one hundred taels, but this price is that Zhou Zhe may have offended more than one enemy.

"Don't move around with this! they earned it with their lives. The rest is yours to be. Zhou Zhe said to Xin Chai on the beam.

"Well, somebody's so generous! aren't you going to hold on a little?"

They all have families and children, and when it comes to this Spring Festival, those who should ask for a wife also have money to ask for a wife. ”

"Why don't you want to think about it if you have such a good brain? You can find your wife in this Longquan Pass as a regular soldier, and you still need to spend money? You give me the money and hire me to protect you when you are in danger It is more cost-effective than giving all the waste materials to those scraps. ”

"It really makes sense, can you protect me if you can kill me in Longquan Pass? You can't protect yourself, I might as well buy some equipment to arm myself!" Zhou Zhe originally just said casually, but it seemed to have a flash of inspiration: buy some good things to arm yourself, and you can arm the whole team, as long as Lao Tzu is not alone, even if he comes, he has to look at it in vain.

Xin chased Zhou Zheleng in a daze for a long time, and asked slowly

"Hey, what the hell did you think of again?"

"I have a little clue, I've heard that there will be merchants coming from other places to sell their things in the spring, can you buy good weapons?"

"You can buy it, you get what you pay for, your money seems to be a lot, you really want to buy it, it's better to have the green jade sword on your waist, instead of thinking about this, it's better to think more about how to use your lime powder and spider silk webs well. If the old man hadn't knocked on the bottle you threw out last time, your corpse would have been burned to ashes. ”

"Is it so expensive?"

"Or do you think that the standard ordnance that Sergeant Longquanguan can equip is to use the ash of the spirit grass as a grinding tool, and the diluted spiritual liquid is quenched and the garbage engraved with the Dao pattern, but it is enough to deal with those half-orcs. ”

"As soon as you told me, I found out that I was a poor ghost. ”

"Look at who you compare with, a weapon from the ancient war period found in the tomb or ruins, even if you are rich in the world, don't want to buy it, the next one, it depends on whether you have the ability to take it, otherwise if you buy it today, it will be taken away the next day, wouldn't it be a wedding dress for others." ”

"And how much is your weapon worth?"

"Not yet, but it's priceless to me!"

"Your gold lord is quite arrogant, who dares to have such a big penance?"

"Who else don't tell me you can't guess?"

"I still don't say it, I'll really die if I say it. Four thousand one hundred taels, what can I buy, my head is worried. Zhou Zhe went to bed and sighed.

"Everything depends on fate, there are many specialties in Beiyuan, and the cost of using them to make equipment is a little high, but if you equip more than ten or twenty people, you can still fight when you meet ordinary spiritual cultivators below the fifth order. Xin Chai showed him the way.

"What specialty? What is an ordinary spiritual cultivator?"

"The spider silk of the northern plains, tough, can be made into gloves, webs, soft armor, but extremely rare, the wolf tail of the giant wolf, the arrows made of the wolf's tail bone can break the spiritual power, this is in your trophies, there are many things, you can explore it yourself, I am often in the south, and I have only heard of the things in the northern plains. As for the cultivators, you can compare me with them, if I want to kill you, don't say that you bring a dozen or twenty people, even if you are a hundred times the number, you will die. ”

"Well!! well, let's not talk about that. Even if you find the materials, who will you find to make these things!

"It's all about fate. ”

Zhou Zhe rolled his eyes, and then covered his head to sleep.

On the third day, Zhou Zhe went to the logistics camp as usual to report, Lin Xiaoer hadn't come over since he was robbed of a leg of mutton on the first day, and Zhou Zhe saw the old woman with the little girl at the gate of the logistics camp. The old woman looked at Zhou Zhe's young face and good face, unlike the appearance of the other sergeants, the five big and three rough and fierce gods, and then spoke

"This military master, it's good, let me meet Lord Ling. ”

"What's wrong?"

"That's right, the night before yesterday someone threw silver into my tent, but it didn't belong to our grandparents and grandchildren, and I didn't dare to take it, and I didn't sleep well for two nights, and I came to hand over the money this morning, but they didn't let me in. Zhou Zhe's heart was suddenly melted by kindness, Xin Chai wanted to do something good, but people didn't dare to take it, this simplicity made Zhou Zhe decide to help them:

"How much silver to show me!" Zhou Zhe actually knew the number, which was lost to him by Wang Rui and Liu Dabeard.

"Thirty-five taels, it's too much!" The old woman was reluctant to take it, but she didn't dare to take it, full of simple peasant thoughts.

"Well, I'm in charge of this, you have land at home, right? You can't just have land, you are old, you can use this money to buy some livestock for fifteen taels, and usually let your granddaughter herd cattle and sheep, and grow your own land to make a living, don't plant too much, you still have to spend money to see a doctor when you are tired, right?"

"Yes, yes!"

"Leave another ten taels for your daughter as a dowry, otherwise if you get angry at your husband's house, you can still have the confidence to say no, you can always forgive me for saying that it is unlucky, and these ten taels can be used as a coffin book, people will always have a headache and fever when they are older, and they can still eat a chicken and duck to make up for it when the time comes?"

"Hey, I saw that you were a big man, which was really powerful, but these thirty-five taels were too much. The old woman was a little cautious.

"Not much, not much! I have to let it go, but I have to tell my daughter where she is! My brother, his mother just hid the money, and he left suddenly, and he didn't tell him where to hide it! It's not a pity! You always take the money back! We're busy!"

"Alas, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!" After a few thanks, Zhou Zhemu sent the old woman away, and just turned around and entered the gate of the logistics camp, Lao Ling was actually standing there, and I eavesdropped on you. Zhou Zhe has been picked up by Lao Ling a little miserably in the past two days, and his eyes are a little unnatural, and sure enough, Lao Ling spoke

"Well, you're good at settling accounts, you're really short of manpower, so you can come here! You don't have to go to the refugee camp today, I'll give you the pancakes when the time comes, and I'll send them over," Sure enough, something happened.

Then he followed Lao Ling to sort out the accounts and plan the relocation of the old army of the new army in Longquanguan.

"The recruits have entered the camping area of each barracks, and you should pay attention to the main matters, the same hundred subordinate families can live in the courtyards on both sides of the same road, but they cannot be next to each other, and the major branches of the army must have their own large barracks, and they cannot live together. The rest of the people informed me of what they thought of, and they could only pass with my permission. After Lao Ling gave the order, the knife and pen officials began to get busy, Zhou Zhe's eyes turned black, this Nima is really terrible.

Although the civilian staff does not have to earn fame with a knife and a gun, but at night he is also tired and faint, Zhou Zhe finally did not dare to underestimate Lao Ling anymore, the huge Longquan Pass except Lao Chen, anyone can do without, if there is no Lao Ling, it is estimated that there is no need to fight, a month is completely chaotic, and half a day is arranged so the accommodation of the regular army. In ordinary times, the sergeants of Longquan are often divided into three, six, nine and so on, the heavy cavalry looks down on the light cavalry, the light cavalry looks down on the infantry, the infantry can only look down on the auxiliaries, and the group ridicule of playing ordnance, so it is strange to live in a large camp and not fight, the same centurion has a hundred and ten people, and it is good to assemble when living in a street, if a team is all wiped out, a hundred households return to the camp, and the surrounding yards are all empty, and there can be morale to have ghosts, and it is also to prevent fighting.

The rest of the logistics battalion is responsible for several large canteen-like places for eating, feeding the horses, and all of them are solved in the afternoon, although Zhou Zhe only needs to follow step by step, but he also feels the perfect logistics system of the big tree of Longquanguan. Fighting, killing, and killing is something that a person can do with a knife several times, and reasonably planned logistics is the foundation to ensure combat effectiveness, at this moment, he felt the strength of Longquan Pass.
