The registration point at the city gate is different from the desertion on the first day, each registration point is extremely hot these days, and even Zhao Yun has recruited a large number of soldiers without lowering his requirements. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Shaoyang came to inspect near the registration point, and when he saw the scene of the people enthusiastically signing up, he was very happy, and said with a smile: "Yes, Zilong, how many soldiers have been recruited so far?"

Zhao Yun followed behind Shaoyang and immediately replied: "Your Excellency, in recent days, the people have actively signed up, and after strict selection, so far, a total of more than 1,200 soldiers have been recruited. ”

More than 1,200 people, plus the original soldiers and guards, have completed more than half of the task, Shaoyang is very satisfied with this, took out a wooden token, handed it to Zhao Yun and said: "Zilong, this piece of Pu Dao Soldier Talisman has been handed over to you, I hope you can train elite soldiers as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Yun answered the order and took the talisman from Shaoyang's hand. The use of the talisman is very simple, after Zhao Yun uses his spiritual sense to refine the talisman, he obtains the training method of the Pu Dao soldier.

The new barracks are still under construction, Shaoyang went to inspect for a while, and then went to the administrative officer to ask about the sword and shield equipment, the recruitment was very smooth, and a thousand sets of equipment could no longer be satisfied.

"Your Majesty, this ...... The subordinates are really powerless, the wooden shield is not too difficult, just spend more time, and build another 2,000 sets of pu knives, at least 30,000 catties of pig iron need to be consumed. ”

The task of 1,000 sets has already made the administrative officer rack his brains, and he did not dare to accept the order when he learned that he would have to build 2,000 more sets.

The smelting technology of the Dusk Continent is low, and the pig iron reserves in Songhai City are limited, and a thousand sets of Pu Dao have been scavenged, and all the iron ore on the market has been looted, and Shaoyang also knows that it is difficult for him, but if there is no equipment, the Pu Dao soldiers will not be able to exert their due combat power.

"What can you do?"

"If there is still an iron mine in Songhai City, there should only be a few major families such as the Xu family, and there are many blacksmiths in the major families, if they can support it, I believe they will be able to speed up the progress. ”

Isn't it Xu Sanmu's family, several major families are all descendants of the Chinese nationality, Shaoyang had plans to visit after learning about the history of the Chinese people in the Dusk Mainland, but before he could do so, he encountered the Aolan Village Massacre Incident, and he had no chance until now.

"In addition to a thousand sets of equipment, you also need to make a batch of training equipment, and the training knife can also be made of wooden materials, so go down." Shaoyang instructed the administrative officer.

The power of several major families in Songhai City is deep-rooted, and Shaoyang has already witnessed it these days. Many of the city's industries belong to them, and they own more than half of the fields in Songhai City.

Previously, the army was almost entirely in their hands, so much so that Cassel had to mobilize Martin's team when he wanted to arrest him.

If you want to build the equipment needed for 3,000 Pu Dao soldiers, with the current state of the City Lord's Mansion, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve, so I can only seek their support.

Judging from Xu Sanmu's performance, Shaoyang thinks that they are likely to support him.

"Your Highness, the heads of the Xu family, the Jiang family and other families outside the door have come to ask to see!" the voice of the attendant interrupted Shaoyang's thoughts.

I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, as soon as I thought of them, they took the initiative to come to the door.

Shaoyang was a little puzzled and didn't understand the reason for their visit, but it didn't affect his mood, it was better than asking for someone by himself.

"Fast, fast and affectionate. ”

Xu Tianyuan, Jiang Tu and several other family heads entered one after another under the guidance of the attendants, standing under the hall and saluting Shaoyang.

"Old man Xu Tianyuan/Jiang Tu has seen the Third Highness. ”

Shaoyang hurriedly got up and smiled and motioned for them to be exempt from courtesy: "A few family heads don't need to be polite, please sit down quickly." ”

"Your Highness Xie" The heads of the family are naturally not too humble.

After the greetings, Shaoyang didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I was supposed to visit a few elders alone, but I didn't expect to be free for a while, but let a few come, ashamed, I don't know what happened this time?"

Several parents glanced at each other a few times, and Xu Tianyuan came forward to reply: "The dog is not talented, thanks to His Royal Highness's attention and entrustment, the old man thanked him first." ”

Of course, Shaoyang didn't think that they were just here to thank him, and said politely with a smile: "Captain Xu has extraordinary ability, so he naturally has to share more for Gu in military affairs." ”

His eyes looked at Xu Tianyuan meaningfully, waiting for his next step.

"We came to see His Highness this time because we heard that His Highness has something to do, and we are here to help. Xu Tianyuan also went straight to the point.

Shaoyang was puzzled: "Oh, help?"

"Your Highness is building armaments, presumably a large amount of iron ore and craftsmen must be needed, and the old man and others are willing to provide them. ”

I was still thinking about how to get their support before, but I didn't expect that before I could speak, they actually took the initiative to propose, and Shaoyang said suspiciously: "Master Xu, I don't understand, why do you want to help Gu." ”

There will be no free pie in the sky, although Shaoyang needs their support very much, but he still doesn't dare to accept it easily before he knows the reason.

"Werewolves are coming, Your Highness is rectifying military affairs, and it is also to protect Songhai City, and I and a few others are also part of Songhai City, so we naturally have to do our part. Xu Tianyuan's explanation was decent.

The explanation is quite reasonable, Shaoyang does not doubt that this is the reason, but it is by no means the whole reason, he doesn't say much, just looks at Xu Tianyuan with a smile.

Xu Tianyuan said again: "There is another point, our Royal Highness and I are both Chinese. After finishing speaking, he also looked at Shaoyang.

In this way, the two looked at each other for a long time.

It is estimated that the other party has other reasons, but he doesn't plan to say it, and Shaoyang is helpless for a while. The other party has no malicious intentions, this is what he can affirm, since this is the case, there is no need to be too entangled, and he also needs the support of the other party.

"Okay, I wonder what kind of help you can provide to Lone?" Shaoyang asked.

"All the craftsmen of the major families are at the disposal of His Highness, and the iron ore needed is also provided by us, and if His Highness has other needs, he will do his best to do so. Xu Tianyuan said that several major families could provide help, without mentioning any conditions.

Good guy, several major families are more generous than they thought, they originally thought that it would be good to be able to spend money to buy it, but now that the other party is actually giving it away for nothing, what can Shaoyang not be satisfied with.

Thinking of the progress and changes in the recruitment matter, Shaoyang said clearly: "If Gu is not mistaken, this recruitment can be smooth sailing, and there will be a few more family masters, right?"

"Those juniors in the family are idle, so it's better to send them to the army for training. Xu Tianyuan didn't hide it and admitted it indirectly.

This time the favor is too big, Shaoyang secretly pondered for a while, and said: "The new army needs a large number of officers, I don't know if there are suitable talents in several clans who can be recommended to Lone?"

One is to repay the other party with his official position, and the other is to be tied to the interests of several major families, which is beneficial to himself.

Several family masters understood Shaoyang's intentions, accepted his kindness with peace of mind, and said in unison: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”
