Chapter 166: Windfall [One Update]

After arranging, watching Li Mingwu and a group of blacksmiths walk away, Shen Mufeng returned to the palace, but he was a little worried when he returned to the palace, after all, there were still three hundred and fifty dead soldiers who didn't know where they were hidden, and if the three battalions were careless, they might suffer a big loss.

So Shen Mufeng hurriedly went to the third camp again, and it happened that Li Mingwu was also taken to the third camp, and everyone went to Wanglong Mountain together.

After entering the cave, the soldiers of the third battalion saw the mountains of weapons, and immediately showed a look of shock, and in addition to the weapons, there was a large amount of gold and silver, even Li Mingwu did not expect that there was so much silver hidden here.

It was tossed until dawn that the things in the cave were completely cleaned up, Shen Mufeng gave a gag order, the matter about the cave was not allowed to be spread, and concealing Xia Youde's rebellion with his private weapons was only one reason, mainly because Shen Mufeng wanted to build a lot of construction here and make this place a secret military factory.

Let's put it this way! If Shen Mufeng cares about what he cares about most in this world, apart from his relatives and friends, what Shen Mufeng cares about most is gunpowder, grenades, and the subsequent development of firearms, gunpowder grenades have been tightly sealed by Shen Mufeng, but Shen Mufeng also knows that there can be no real blockade in Wanshan County, if it weren't for the strict secrecy of the gunpowder formula and the complexity of the grenade production process, Shen Mufeng probably wouldn't have the leisure to take care of Lanling County.

The solution is very simple, that is, to take the military factory away as soon as possible and move it to a place where not many people know about it and it is easy to guard against, and this place has been found, which is this cave in front of you.

This cave is big enough and secret enough, and if you take a break from the cave, it is enough to accommodate thousands of people, and the arsenal of thousands of people is enough for Shen Mufeng today.

Whether it is the processing of weapons, or the development of subsequent weapons, there are great advantages in secrecy and defense.

Ordered the entrance of the cave to be sealed, Shen Mufeng began to plan Lanling County, in fact, there was nothing to plan, it was nothing more than Wanshan County.

Today's Lanling County can be described as a new look, although it is not much different from the original, but the mentality of the people has changed, these soldiers have given them a booster, and they have never seen such a disciplined army.

In the afternoon of the same day, a series of measures related to the restructuring of Lanling County were announced, including the transformation plan of the urban area, the establishment of the county government of Lanling County, the general collection of laws of Lanling County, and the restoration of normal market prices of shops under the name of the palace, the establishment of a clothing factory, shoes and hat factories in the palace to recruit a large number of female workers, and a series of dazzling decrees, which shocked the people of Lanling County.

But for the common people, there is nothing more exciting for them than these decrees.

It is impossible for Shen Mufeng to sit in Lanling County all the time, so Shen Mufeng decided to leave a part of the army to be responsible for maintaining order in Lanling County, and he will return to Pinglan to mobilize people to be responsible for the affairs of Lanling County.

As for the other two counties, Shen Mufeng sent people to send documents, ordered rectification, improved people's livelihood, and set up a yamen, while Lanling County was set up as the first place of the three counties, and the two counties were controlled by Lanling County.

Shen Mufeng didn't want to take care of the other two counties, he really lacked skills, first, there were not enough people, the population of the other two counties was 300,000, and the troops in his hands were only 10,000, and it took so long to recover Wanping, the Pinglan army could not always stop in Wanping, at least mobilize a part of the town to guard Pinglan.

What's more important is that Shen Mufeng wants to set up the Southwest Military Region as soon as possible, and each state has 50,000 troops, so it is necessary to pull the team back.

However, Shen Mufeng wanted to leave, but some people didn't want him to leave, and the other two county kings all sent people to invite Shen Mufeng, saying that there was something important to discuss, Shen Mufeng sneered in his heart, it is estimated that the two county kings couldn't sit still.

In fact, Shen Mufeng really guessed correctly, the death of King Lanling had a very big impact on the two county kings, after all, the incident happened suddenly, and the palace guards ran away, and the kings of the two counties thought it was Shen Mufeng's hand, and Shen Mufeng dared to attack Lanling County, which means that it was authorized by the emperor, plus Shen Yan King is famous, I am really afraid that Shen Mufeng will be hard.

But for Shen Mufeng, how could it be possible to see the two of them, at this time, it is better not to make too much movement, Lanling County is a mess, wait until Lanling County is straightened out, and Shen Mufeng understands that he can't be a fat man by eating one bite.

And if an ambitious person like King Lanling comes out again, wouldn't he suffer a big loss, so Shen Mufeng made up his mind not to go.

And informed the steward of the palace of the two counties, saying that it was the emperor's strict order to thoroughly investigate and rectify the three counties, and the three counties were too comfortable, not to share worries for the king, only to give a three-month period, if there is no effect, immediately send troops to rectify it, and will not be tolerated!

Pulling out the emperor, to put it bluntly, is pulling the banner of the tiger, but the king of the second county does not dare to doubt that the matter of Wanping is in front of him, and the people under his rule are not happy, so it is not surprising that the emperor is angry.

What's more, they are also weak-minded! Fujigu has wooed Xia Youde, how could they let go of the two of them, although they prefer a comfortable life, but there are some things they can't choose, at least when they face Fujigu, they are really not qualified to refuse, and refusal is death.

In the evening, Zhang Dahai's second battalion, who was in charge of hunting, finally came back, but to Shen Mufeng's surprise, Hei Laohai's face was extremely bad, and he was also injured.

As Xiao Muyu said, this place is on the edge of the Tianji Mountain Range, and if you want to hunt, you can only go deep, but after walking for more than 80 miles, the second battalion actually found an iron mine, as well as an iron-making house, how did Hei Laohai, an important iron mine, not know, so he hurriedly sent someone to check, but instead of coming back, the two people sent out rushed to three or four hundred black-clothed people, who came up to shout and kill.

If it weren't for the miraculous effect of the grenade, which killed more than 300 people at once, otherwise the second battalion of the Hei Lao Hai Department would have suffered a big loss, Rao is so, in dealing with less than dozens of black-clothed people, the second battalion still killed eleven and injured more than 20 people, and even Hei Laohai was stabbed twice, which shows how fierce these black-clothed people are.

The man in black, the iron mine, Shen Mu stood up suddenly, and finally understood that these men in black should be Xia Youde's dead soldiers.

"Have you brought back all the dead brothers?"

Hei Laohai nodded heavily: "It's all brought back, boss, it's not Lao Hai who shirks my responsibility, those people are too fierce, they are not afraid of death and even die together." ”

Shen Mufeng sighed, he was also distressed when more than a dozen brothers died, but being able to eliminate the remnants of Xia Youde's dead soldiers also solved a matter of Shen Mufeng's heart.

"I don't blame you for this, these people should be the dead soldiers of Xia Youde, the king of Lanling, but I didn't expect that they actually found an iron mine, by the way, how about the iron mine?"

Shen Mufeng suddenly thought of something, since Xia Youde had found an iron mine, why had he only accumulated hundreds of thousands of taels of silver over the years, this was unreasonable!

Speaking of the mine, Hei Laohai's face looked much better: "Boss, don't you know! It is an open-pit mine, iron ore can be found everywhere, I asked an iron-making craftsman, they said that the iron ore should not be small, and they have only been making iron for three or four months." ”

Shen Mufeng was relieved, it made sense, and Shen Mufeng felt that his luck was still good, not only to destroy the remnants of Xia Youde's forces, but also to get an iron mine, which was really an unexpected harvest.

"Settle your brothers properly, the iron mine is too important, you call Pang Qing to come here, you are also tired, go back and have a good rest." ”

After Hei Laohai left, Pang Qing came quickly, Shen Mufeng told the matter again, Pang Qing was also very happy, after all, the appearance of an iron mine has relieved a lot of pressure on the army.

"I have handed over Lanling County and the iron mine to you, and I must protect the iron mine for me, and there can be no mistakes.

Tomorrow, I will take some of my brothers to return to Pinglan first, after all, Pinglan can't be empty, I will stay in the law enforcement team, Zhang Dahai, Zhang Dabiao, Li Jie, I will leave them to help you!"

"It's the army commander, and the mission will be completed!"

After Pang Qing left, Shen Mufeng let out a long breath, he didn't expect that good things would follow, not to mention anything else, that is, he got an iron mine for no reason, and this trip to Lanling County was worth it. (To be continued.) )
