Zou Run didn't stay in the cottage as Yang Lin and Deng Fei said, this job made him throw it to Zou Yuan on the grounds of respecting the elder, and he himself insisted on leading the troops down the mountain.

With the blessing of fast horses and armor, the ability of the minions to raid and attack on the cloud mountain has been greatly enhanced, and three Zhuangzi have been broken in two days, one of which is a night battle.

After the news spread, all the rich families around them were frightened, and they hurriedly packed up and ran into the county and state towns, perhaps only the thick city walls could give them a sense of security.

Every time Zou Run breaks a big household that is rich and unkind, he must do two things. The first is to carry out a public trial on a large scale, and punish them on the spot depending on the depth of the crime, and all the landlords and old fortunes who have lives in their hands will be stabbed after the trial. The second is to scrape the land hard, every time Zou Run organized a large number of ox carts and carriages to transport the spoils of war, and all those who could be used were removed, and at the same time did not forget to send food and money to the villagers, and the people all praised it.

At the moment, the moniker is no longer called, but his new nickname is seriously polarized. The common people in the vicinity said that he was the little Qin king who punished the evil and promoted the good, robbed the rich and helped the poor, and squandered the wealth with righteousness, while the local rich people called him the nosy Zou scraper. When the Yamashita Hotel reported the news, Zou Run couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

In short, on the boundary of Dengzhou, Zou Run is now famous, and even outside the gate of Dengzhou, there is a notice to arrest Zou Run, the head of the pirate thief, the king of Xiao Qin, but the notice General Zou Run painted a positive abstraction, completely with a big bag on his head, and a fierce and vicious appearance, which can also be seen that the government is completely a false story, and has no intention of really arresting him.

This fame is big, there are more people who come to take refuge, and the three hotels have already spread the saying that Dengyun Mountain also gives a settlement fee, and for more than half a month, there is an endless stream of people who go up the mountain to join the group, and there are three or four hundred people. Among the three or four hundred people, most of them are salt farmers and fishermen by the sea, because Zou Run promised to accept all the men, women and children, so there are still many families who come to join them.

Zou Run naturally kept his promise, and all the people who went up the mountain were given a settling-in allowance according to their heads, ranging from five to twenty yuan depending on the ability of the people who defected. You must know that this price is really not low, the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty will also issue a settlement fee when recruiting people, called Zhao Lao examples, the so-called Zhao Lao is to tattoo the corresponding military name on the soldiers, and the example is generally the standard of ten yuan per person.

Although this expenditure alone cost nearly 4,000 yuan, this money was not spent, and among the three or four hundred people, Zou Run screened out many elders with one skill. There are more than 200 young men who can carry knives in battle, more than 30 skilled hands who can operate ships, four or five who can strike iron, and seven or eight other miscellaneous craftsmen, one of whom is even familiar with medical skills. This made Zou Runle bad, and he immediately decided to set up a copycat iron workshop and hospital.

There are so many more people on the mountain at once, and the top priority is to expand the house, but fortunately, the mountain of Dengyun Mountain is very large, enough to accommodate two or three thousand people, and there are many trees in the mountain, everyone works together, and the problem of the house is quickly solved. After all the personnel settled down, Zou Run began to reorganize the team non-stop.

At present, the number of people on the mountain has exceeded 500, of which the elderly, children and women account for less than one-fifth, after consultation with the three leaders, the infantry army is set to be 300 people, including 200 pikemen, 50 sword and shield men, and 50 archers; Fifty horsemen; There were fifty sailors; The rest of the staff is used in the hotel and logistics system.

Of course, except for the pikeman's equipment, which can barely be fully equipped, the rest is very lacking. Helpless, Zou Run could only ask Yang Lin and Deng Fei to run again with a cheeky face, and stuffed 5,000 yuan of special funds respectively. The task that Zou Run gave to Deng Fei was to let him return to Liao by boat from Dengzhou, the first task was to buy war horses, the more the merrier, and the second was to buy weapons and equipment, mainly bows and arrows and armor, followed by knives and guns, the last three are to buy iron if you can't buy it, anyway, now that the cottage has its own blacksmith, it's a big deal to buy iron and come back to build it yourself.

And the task given to Yang Lin is to let him pretend to be a merchant and go to Dengzhou Shipyard to buy a boat, after all, now the cottage is empty of a naval army, but there is not even a decent sea boat, only seven or eight small fishing boats for fishermen to go to sea to fish, this kind of small boat can make do near the coastline, but to expect to take this boat to Dangji Island, it is a fantasy, plus self-defeating.

The reason why Yang Lin was allowed to go was because he had rich experience in the rivers and lakes, and he had smuggled over by boat from Liao, and he knew a little about the market and had some connections. Therefore, Zou Run also emphasized two points, one is to buy a ship to buy a big one, and the other is to buy a current ship, even if you can't buy a current ship, you have to spend money to rank first, in short, the sooner the better.

It is not unreasonable for Zou Run to be so anxious, he was anxious before because he was afraid of the government's requisition, but now he is anxious because the cottage finances are tight. Zou Run has had a headache in the dark more than once, Dengyun Mountain has a thin foundation, although the three-way attack this time won a big victory, but the silver money in hand is only less than 13,000 yuan, except for all kinds of rewards, only less than 8,000 yuan into the public account, but the current various necessary expenses are as high as 14,000 yuan, and the old foundation of the cottage will be hollowed out, and in the end, Zou Run pulled Zou Yuan to talk about it, and took out their savings for emergency only barely enough.

If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, Zou Run always looks forward to the rapid formation of the combat power under his hands, especially the naval army, which must have a certain combat effectiveness as soon as possible, otherwise you can't take Dangji Island, you can't take Dangji Island, you can't carry out salt drying, and if you can't dry salt, it means that there is no fixed and long-term financial resources, so he can only keep going down the mountain to borrow food, but this will inevitably clash with the armed forces of the imperial court in the short term.

And this is what Zou Run has been trying his best to avoid, now his strength is still very weak, winning will only lead to more and greater retaliation from the imperial court, let alone losing, that is, all of them will be lost, everything is a mirror, a dream bubble.

Fortunately, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and under Yang Lin's silver bullet offensive, the Dengzhou shipyard quickly vacated the ship. For 5,000 yuan, a total of six boats were bought.

There are two flat-bottomed sea ships of 800 materials, each of which is eight feet long and three feet long and two feet wide, and the price is 1,800 yuan. There are four sharp-bottomed saury boats of 200 materials, each one is one foot and two feet wide, and five feet long, and the price is 350 yuan.

The so-called material probably refers to the cargo capacity of the ship, which corresponds to the depth from the deck to the bottom of the ship, and the cabin part above the deck is not counted. 800 materials converted into cargo capacity, about equal to about 1,200 stone (about 35 tons of weight now), 800 materials of flat-bottomed sea ships can be used as both cargo ships and warships, when warships can carry 200 shipwrights, sailors and soldiers, with this ship, the deep sea areas of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea can be reached.
