In the second year of Guanghe, at the end of March, Jiyin County.

At night, Xue's wall outside Chengyang County.

At this time, the sky was already dark, but everyone was still excited, Zhang Chong asked people to set up a few torches on the stage, and listened carefully to Du Man's suggestion.

After Ding Sheng said useless words.

Du Man, who has always been resourceful in the team, said what Zhang Chong had in his heart.

I saw Du Man say:

"Think about it, why he asked these three questions, as he said at the beginning, these are all critical issues related to our survival.

First of all, first, what do we do next?

Have you forgotten that there are Li clan soldiers chasing behind us, and even in the future, there will be county and township soldiers, which will become our enemies.

Now we have broken the wall of Xue's house and have seized it.

But according to the original plan, they lurked in the reeds, and these things could not be carried away by us.

And even if we carry it, it will slow us down, and it will also cause the covetousness of the surrounding waters.

When the time comes, there are chasing soldiers in front of them, and there are tigers and wolves inside, and it will be difficult not to die.

But if you don't leave, stay in this Xue Jiabi.

Although this place is also hidden, it is still too close to the Chengshi.

Before, we counted the dingkou in the wall, found out, and knew that the Xue family had escaped for a few dings and one less.

At that time, as long as they contact relatives and friends or go to the government, then we will be in danger here.

Therefore, whether to go or stay, we have to discuss it together. Do you understand? ”

Listening to Du Man's words, everyone became nervous, and it turned out that they and the others were still in danger.

Zhang Chong was very satisfied, he added a little detail, he said:

"I read the letters of the Xue family and nearby families before, and it turned out that they were actually victims of the party, and they also fled here.

So there is a high probability that they will not go to the government.

Some of you may not know what a party member and party leader are, but it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that these people are wanted by the government and will not fall into the net.

But that doesn't mean we're safe, because we have internal worries.

The second question I ask is to consider this.

We now have a total of sixty-five men, and three of them were wounded during the day.

In addition, we have to have someone to guard the storehouse, and there may be only forty people who actually take care of the prisoners.

But how many dingkou are there now?

According to the figures given by the little father, it is Ding Man, 210 people, Ding Women, 46 people, and there are no other people.

There are so many people that we can't take care of them.

And as long as one of them runs away at night and goes to the other powerful dock walls nearby to warn, then we are in danger.

So what to do with this prisoner has become another matter.

Also, the third question I raised is the reorganization of our team.

Why do I say that?

Today, when we attacked the wall, I found that we really didn't have any rules.

For example, Chen Huan and I broke the wall first, but then there was no team to follow.

There were also people who were supposed to attack the granary, but suddenly they ran with the group to catch the prisoners, and the whole thing was in chaos.

We were lucky to behead the enemy first this time, and these Xue family disciples were frightened, so we got off the dock wall smoothly.

But what about later? When we encounter a strict enemy, we will suffer a great loss. That's why I asked everyone what to do. ”

If Du Man's speech made everyone nervous, then Zhang Chong's words made everyone think.

Yang Mao has the most experience in the military, and he pointed out the crux of the third problem by taking the military as an example.

He pointed out that where soldiers are used, the system must be determined first, and the system must be determined first, so that the soldiers will not be chaotic, and if the soldiers are not chaotic, the punishment will be clear.

One thing is very simple, everyone on the battlefield is afraid of death, if there is no system constraints, one person will go, and thousands of people will run, then the army will inevitably be destroyed.

However, if the golden drum is used to carry the banner, and the people are single-minded, then the brave cannot advance alone, and the cowardly cannot retreat alone.

Then he suggested to Zhang Chong that now we have sixty-five people, and we can be organized into one tun and five people, of which there are fifteen people in the tun department and ten people in each tun.

Now we don't have a golden drum and flag, but fortunately, there are few people, and it is enough to shout, so there is no hurry.

Zhang Chong pondered Yang Mao's suggestion.

Yang Mao's mention is the establishment of the division of the economic system in the Eastern Han army, which is easy for everyone to understand and accept.

He didn't rashly innovate the so-called military system, or install any miscellaneous titles, but he was worried that people would be regarded as a straw organization and despised by others.

Now that the army is being organized, it is better to take the tribal system first, and the meal must always be eaten one bite at a time.

After thinking about it, Zhang Chonghuan looked at the people present and began to order on the spot.

"Okay, just do what Da Mao said, this time, everyone present is brave, and I just happen to be rewarded for meritorious deeds.

First of all, Chen Huan was the first to board with me.

I will let you be the chief of the shooter, and there will be ten people in the team who will use the bow and crossbow, and those who are dissatisfied can choose someone to teach, and refuse the enemy a hundred paces away.

Then there is Yang Mao, who is skilled in military affairs, and I will appoint you as the second commander of the tun department to assist me in the military.

Wang Zhang and Li Wu were the commanders of our tun department, and 15 brave strong men were selected to serve as the tun department.

After that, Ding Sheng and Heifu.

The two of you are fighting indefinitely, and you will not turn your heels. I will also let the two of you be the chief, choose twenty people, and make good use of the ring-headed sword, as the commander of the battle, and fight with the enemy in every square inch.

After that, Zhang Dan, you are clever and willful, and I will let you be long, choose ten people to use spears, and resist the enemy within fifty steps.

Finally, my little father Zhang Bingnan, who has always been good at management, I will let you be the chief of the baggage, and also choose ten people who are not good at fighting, make a fire to cook, escort the baggage, and use all the big animals. ”

After speaking, Zhang Chong looked at the last person and was full.

"In the end, Du Man, wise and resourceful, I will appoint you as the counselor of the tunbu, and the assistant military aircraft and all general affairs."

In the end, Zhang Chong looked at everyone affectionately:

"A man has no name, and an army has no name.

From today onwards, we will set up a banner and call General Shi.

In the future, you will call me Qu Kui in the army. To the outside world, they call us General Shi's team.

I hope that everyone can not forget the oath in the forest the day before yesterday and work together! ”

After speaking, his right hand clenched into a fist and rose.

"Effort" everyone clenched their right hands into fists and stood.

Everyone laughed.

Zhang Chong pointed again, the prisoner below, and asked everyone if anyone had a way?

Everyone shook their heads, some of them really had no way, some had a way, but they didn't dare to say.

For example, if you can't let it go and can't control it, can't you kill it? Killing can also train the courage of the brothers.

But after getting along these days, people who have such thoughts know that Zhang Chong will not do this.

Since you don't accept it at the moment, why do you have to say that it's not to make yourself uncomfortable.

Du Man hesitated for a while, and asked Zhang Chong uncertainly:

"What do you think, you probably don't have a clue right now. Since Qu Kui said it, he must have an idea, so it's better to talk to everyone. ”

"Okay" Zhang Chong is no longer hiding.

"In addition to reading the Xue family's letters, I also carefully inquired about the situation of these captives.

Don't look at the fact that there are more than 200 people in this Dingkou, but in fact, the personnel are quite complicated.

I've roughly divided it into:

First of all, the core personnel of the Xue family, the number of people here is the smallest, about twenty people, and these people are generally hostile to us.

When we entered the wall, they were counted as the fiercest resistance, so all of them had relatives who died at our hands.

Then there are the Xue family's tribes and slaves, about a hundred people, generally Ding Zhuang and powerful.

The most loyal of these people were killed in battle when we came in, and the rest were considered obedient.

In the end, it is a person like Rutian Dayong.

They were all people from nearby settlements, or they were tenants or sold into slavery when they had no way out.

They are generally the most hateful of the Xue family.

But it can't be generalized, because some people will be grateful to the Xue family for giving them a bite to eat, and they will die down.

Those who have these thoughts should also be chosen and put into the first category.

According to this division, we can treat them differently.

For the first category, we are strictly controlled.

Then for the second category, we divided all the land of the Xue clan among them, so that the two were opposed.

The third category, we have to fight for.

Now the millet in the granary is enough for us to eat, and the surplus can be taken home by the disciples and distributed to the nearby settlements.

In this way, you can not only live them, but also gain their support.

We're going to have a good time here, and it's untenable to do without these local mountain huts as eyes and ears. ”

"What do you think?" After speaking, Zhang Chong asked this group of stunned partners again.

"Brother Chong, no, Qu Kui, it's really high. Such a division is really too clear, who we want to help and who we want to watch out for, at a glance, I Zhang Dan has nothing to say. ”

What's more, Zhang Dan didn't have anything to say, everyone present, one of them was the first time they had heard of such a manager.

It stands to reason that this Qu Kui is just a farmer, why is he so wise? It can only be attributed to God.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Zhang Chong made a final summary:

"Then let's do this for the three questions I asked.

First of all, Yang Mao took Chen Huan, Heifu, Wang Zhang, Li Wu and other five people as trainers.

You are fully responsible for this compilation and training part, and the requirements are, clear banners, practice equipment, and familiarize yourself with the array.

Then the little father led the organized baggage team, and then allowed him to send the women and children in the prisoners' mouths, and sent them to make more flags with food.

The style of the flag, I will discuss it with Yang Mao later, and then I will draw it for you.

After that, the first team of the full rate will manage the three types of prisoners according to my above-mentioned classification.

Especially the third type, the home is a nearby slave and maid, and it must be fought for.

Then you and Zhang Dan will coordinate the necessities of salt millet and send them to the nearby settlements.

If there are those who join the army, they will be sent to Yang Mao for training first.

In the end, we will repair and prepare for weapons in this Xue Jiabi, and then determine the next route. Do you understand? ”

"Oh" everyone should respond.

"Then tonight is the first thing, set up a tent in this wheat field to rest, and the captives will first take care of the food and stabilize their emotions.

Tomorrow morning, as I say, we will do our part. ”

Then, the group dispersed.

The one over there asked if he could use a bow, and the other side asked if he could use a knife.

The scene is still chaotic, but full of hope.

This is the end of the long day.

Some people are laughing, some people are crying, and there are no more joys and sorrows in the world.
