When Wang Rong returned to Jisai with his troops, they were greeted by a neat procession of 4,000 defenders. Wu Mo stood in front, and behind him were four village soldiers, and even Shi Chukun, the governor of the Western Governor's Mansion, appeared here.

Wang Bian looked at Chu Kun and asked suspiciously, "Why is Mr. Chu here?" Is everything okay in the city? ”

Chu Kun bowed and saluted: "Congratulations to Duwei for his victory and the establishment of immortal achievements." ”

Wang Rong said humbly: "This is all the life of the soldiers, and the blessing of my Dayong Sheng, I just took advantage of the situation." ”

Wu Mo said with admiration: "Du Wei is humble. ”

Chu Kun continued: "Captain, since your good news came, the young people of the three counties of the Western Governor's Mansion have spontaneously signed up to join the army, and now we have received nearly 10,000 applications to join the army, some of which are even written in blood. ”

After listening to this, Wang Rong looked at Meng Song and said: "We all accept the young people who apply to join the army, but the subsequent training is an elimination system. ”

Meng Song heard this, and was confused: "Du Lieutenant, this elimination system?" How to do it? ”

Wang Rong said simply: "It's simple, it's running, running five laps around the city, and the time is controlled in one hour." Those who finish running in an hour are included in the recruits, and those who finish running outside an hour go back and continue their lives. ”

Meng Song said that he had written it down, and Wu Mo arched his hand and said, "Captain, let's enter the city." ”

Wang Rong smiled and said, "Okay, enter the city." ”

Entering the mansion in the city, Wang Wei sat at the top of the main hall, looked at Chu Kun who was sitting at the bottom and asked, "Mr. Chu, is there any news from the county guard mansion and the Zhengbei military mansion?" ”

Chu Kun nodded solemnly when he heard this, and said, "Captain, after the battle report was sent to the two prefectures, orders were sent separately. General Zhengbei ordered Du Wei to lead his army to Guangmu City and obey the orders of the county guard. On the other hand, the county guard hoped that the lieutenant could go to Guangmu City as soon as possible to listen to the order. ”

Wang Rong asked suspiciously, "What's the situation?" Don't we need our support over there? ”

Chu Kun nodded and said: "The Zhenbei Army, the Pingbei Army and the Anbei Army have received orders to go north, this time the Qianghu Khanate has sent a total of more than 400,000 people to invade the south, and the Duwei has directly annihilated more than 50,000 people in the west, and the danger on the west side of Shuofang County has been lifted." But the danger to the north of Sofang County and the north of Unzhong County remains. More than 300,000 people are still under pressure. ”

Wang Rong nodded, although the other three armies went north, but the total was only 200,000 people, which was more than 100,000 less than the number of the Qiang.

Wang Rong shook his head: "I don't want to do this, Meng Song!" Once you've screened your recruits, take them to Hens, where you can train and defend against the invasion of the Baddens from the west. With so many recruits there, the number of recruits can scare the enemy back. ”

Meng Song spoke: "Captain, are the recruits given armor weapons?" He was apprehensive because there were no more weapons left to arm the thousands of recruits.

Wang Rong didn't answer, but asked Chu Kun: "Mr. Chu, how many pairs of armor have been made by the Craftsman Academy now?" How many weapons? ”

The craftsman courtyard was established after integrating all kinds of craftsmen from the three cities, with Xu Forging as the courtyard and Lin Musen as the supervisor, and it was divided into three rooms: civilian housing, military housing and political housing.

Civil housing, as the name suggests, is the production of civil utensils, including iron pots, ploughs, etc., and is also responsible for research and improvement.

The military room, specializing in the production of military standard armor, weapons and large-scale siege and defense equipment, etc., here has the highest level of secrecy, led by Xu Forging himself.

The government building is specially designed to serve the projects of the governor's mansion and the county government. Including the construction of river embankments, dredging of rivers and other large projects, large projects.

In addition to the military house is a gold-swallowing beast, the civilian house and the political house are gold-absorbing beasts. The finances of the entire craftsman's house have always risen, and it has not gone bankrupt because it is for the sake of manufacturing weapons and equipment for the army.

Chu Kun took out an account booklet from his arms, and after carefully rummaging through it, he said: "Du Wei, now the Craftsman Academy has 5,000 swords, 10,000 spears, 2,000 bows, 1,000 halberds, 1,000 crossbows, 3,000 shields, and the number of other weapons added up to tens of thousands. ”

Wang Rong thought for a while and said, "Meng Song, I will leave you these two thousand bows, I will take these thousand crossbows with me, and you can see how to plan and distribute the other weapons yourself." No matter what tricks you use, you must ensure that the Bearded Man will not be able to set foot in Shuofang County in a single step! ”

Meng Song saluted back with a serious face, and then said, "Lieutenant don't worry, I promise that I won't let the Bearded Man step into Shuofang County!" ”

After Wang Rong led his army to repair in Jijiao, he took 5,500 soldiers of the Governor's Mansion along the river to the north.

Soon after Wang Rong's people went to the empty building, the little chicken was filled with more than 8,000 personal soldiers. Meng Song personally served as the general colonel of recruit training, and he planned to train these more than 8,000 recruits well.

Along the river, on both sides are vast grasslands, which can be visibly visible to the naked eye and are grayish-yellow in color. Wang Rong can clearly feel the power of the desert, and even the grasslands on both sides of the river have become desertified.

Wang Rong doesn't have the extra energy to care about this kind of thing now, he can only see what is in front of him. War is the main theme of this era, and he can only do his best to protect the land of this side of the city.

There were horses and mules to walk, and the speed of the march was very fast, and Wang Rong led the troops to the outside of Guangmu City in three days. At this time, two military camps had appeared around Guangmu City, one on the left and one on the right, and the sizes were different.

Wu Mo looked at the banner of the military camp on the right, and said to Wang Rong: "Du Wei, this military camp on the right is the garrison of the Eastern Governor's Mansion, and they have arrived. ”

Wang Rong looked at it silently for a moment and asked, "Senior Wu, are you familiar with this Eastern Captain?" ”

Wu Mo smiled and said, "Haha, then you are asking the right person, I am too familiar with this Eastern Captain." Back then, I dragged him into the barracks. Lin Chong, the eastern lieutenant, is a member of the Lin clan in Longxian County, Longxian County, when he befriended the heroes of the Quartet, he was chivalrous and righteous, and later joined the army, and was appreciated by the general of Zhengbei, and his position was rising. Now he has become the Eastern Governor. ”

As Wu Mo was speaking, he saw a puff of smoke and dust, and the leader was a burly man riding on a tall horse. This person saw that Wu Mo was fifty meters away from Wang Rong and the others, so he reined in the horse, turned over and dismounted, and bowed his hand and said: "Brother Chong has seen Brother Wu, Brother Wu is still bright, don't come unharmed." ”

When Wu Mo saw the movement of the comer, he quickly turned over and dismounted, helped Lin Chong up, and said with a smile: "Haha, I haven't added it for a long time, come on, this is Wang Rong, the governor of my Western Governor's Mansion." ”

Wang Rong was young but not frivolous, he quickly turned over and dismounted, and took the lead in saluting: "The younger generation Wang Rong has seen Senior Lin. ”

Wang Rong's actions made Lin Chong's heart very comfortable, he smiled and helped Wang Rong up, looked at Wang Rong's young face, and said with emotion: "Hey, it's really young, seeing you, I feel that I am old." ”

Wang Rong said embarrassedly: "The seniors are fierce and fierce, where are you old, the younger generations still have to learn more from you." ”

Lin Chong laughed, and Wumo interrupted the two of them touting each other: "Hey! Ay! Don't talk here, this isn't the place to talk. ”

Lin Chong reacted and hurriedly said: "Hey, look at me, I forgot when I saw the old man, hurry up and get on the horse, the county guard is waiting at the city gate." ”

At this time, the outside of Guangmu City was already full of people, and Zhang Songqi, the Marquis of Linjin, waited outside the city with the people from the County Shoufu and the Central Governor's Mansion. Zhang Pu stood behind him dressed as a man, tiptoeing around from time to time, and the Marquis of Linjin frowned.

Wang Rong's army soon came to the city gate, and in order to prevent riots, he said to Wumo: "Wu senior, the army will not enter the city, and our army will not enter the city, but will camp in the camp on the left." ”

Wumo nodded in agreement, and then the old wolf led the army into the left camp. Wang Rong, Li Sujie and Wu Mo followed Lin Chong to salute.

"Haha, Zhong Ming, it's only been a long time, and we'll meet again." Zhang Songqi laughed and stepped forward to help the three of them up. Then he led Wang Rong and others to introduce the subordinates behind him, there were too many subordinate officials, and Wang Rong didn't remember them all. But the most important people he remembered, namely Zhang Gengxiao, the governor of the central region, and Shi Wei Pingyu, the governor of the central governor's mansion; There is also the county guard, the county guard, the county and the county king, and these three people are important figures in Shuofang County.

Zhang Gengxiao, the central governor, is the eldest son of Zhang Songqi, the county guard, aged twenty-three or four, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a typical martial artist figure, burly and powerful.

Shi Wei Pingyu, the governor of the Central Governor's Mansion, is the same age as Zhang Songqi, and is a native of Anyi, Hedong County. The Wei family is a big clan in Hedong County, with huge power and an intertwined relationship network, and Wei Pingyu himself is a typical literati with a chapter of exports. He himself did not have a close relationship with Wei, he studied martial arts in his early years, was diligent, and then traveled all over the world, and Zhang Songqi was a close friend, and he served under Zhang Songqi very early.

The county shou fu county Cheng Wang Xianzhi, Fenchuan County Zhanghua County clan, the Zhuqi Wang clan is the Fenchuan County clan, according to the faction, the Zhuqi Wang clan is the prince's party. Wang Xianzhi became famous as a young man, and was called a prodigy by the people of the time, and when he became an adult, he was recommended to serve as the county magistrate of Linjin County, and after getting acquainted with Zhang Songqi, the Marquis of Linjin, he was impressed by Zhang Songqi, and resolutely refused the post of Zhan Shifu Mansion arranged by the Wang family of Zhang, and followed Zhang Songqi to Shuofang County to serve.
