After resting, Tan Youdao led the gang of bandits and bandits on their way. About an hour and a half later, they finally saw the wall of the Ehugou Village.

On the surface, there is no difference between the current village and the past. There are people patrolling the village walls, and there are people holding swords and guns for defense.

Seeing the cottage in front of them, a dozen bandits cheered up and quickened their pace.

Only Tan Youdao, who was more thoughtful, could see that the people patrolling the wall and the leaders had changed. It turned out that none of the close men of the village owner Sha Tianguang came forward.

"In just two or three days, I took control of the copycat. Iron King Kong Zhao Heng is really capable!"

Tan Youdao remained silent. After the gate of the village in front opened, he led his men forward.

"I've met the second master!"

Hu Liusheng, who had already received the news, was standing in front of the village gate. When he saw Tan Youdao, he quickly came up to greet him.

"Brother Hu, thank you for your hard work!"

Tan Youdao nodded, and said calmly to the dozen men beside him: "Brothers, you have been working hard on the journey, you should go back and rest first!"

"That's...okay!"

Many of the bandits who followed Tan Youdao to Qingzhou Prefecture were Sha Tianguang's confidants.

Although they were a little surprised when they came back this time and why the village leader didn't see them immediately, they were all exhausted at this time and walked towards the back village without thinking about it.

"Brother Hu, what is the village leader going to do with these people?"

After these people had gone away, Tan Youdao asked.

Hu Liusheng chuckled and said, "Brother Tan also knows these people. They are all Sha Tianguang's confidants. Now that the leader of the new village is in power, these people must be cleaned up."

"Master Zhu also said that most of us who go to the mountains and fall grass are forced to survive. It is understandable to block roads, kill corrupt officials, but those scum who molest women from good families and kill people and destroy families must not be let go.

!What is this called? By the way, there is a way to call it a thief!"

Tan Youdao couldn't help but nodded.

If you want to succeed, the quality of your subordinates is very important. If your subordinates are a mixed bag, it will look like a mob. The chance of success in the future is extremely small.

From this point of view, Mr. Zhu does seem to be a man of success.

"Brother Hu, should I go to see the leader of the village first or Mr. Zhu?" Tan Youdao asked.

"Go and see Mr. Zhu first!"

Hu Liusheng led the way, and he and Tan Youdao walked towards the lobby in the center of the village.

Tan Youdao tidied his clothes, calmed down his mind, and followed Hu Liusheng to the lobby.

When I walked to the main door, I saw a young man dressed in brocade sitting in the lobby.

The other party was holding a brush and drawing on a booklet on the table.

This young man in brocade clothes has a handsome appearance and an aura of nobility. There is no trace of martial arts training in his body.

The more normal the other party looked, the more shocked Tan Youdao was.

Before coming back, Hu Liusheng had told him that Sha Tianguang was beaten to death by Mr. Zhu in front of him.

If he can kill the top masters in the world, Mr. Zhu's strength will definitely be higher.

"Is it possible that Mr. Zhu's martial arts has reached a state of returning to his original nature?"

Naturally, Tan Youdao didn't know that the Huntian Xuan Gong practiced by Feng Yuan was different from the external arts in this world. Even with Qianjun's divine power, his body would not become thicker or thicker.

"Tan Youdao, I have met the young master!"

His heart was ups and downs, but his face showed no signs of it, and he quickly came forward and bowed down.

"Get up!"

Feng Yuan casually put the brush aside.

The book in front of him belonged to Zhao Heng. It took Hu Liusheng three full days to compile the data on the gold, silver, grain and grass in Evilhu Valley and the information on his masters.

The booklet contains detailed information about Tan Youdao.

"Mr. Tan, Hu Liusheng said that you are resourceful and have great ambitions. It is really unfair to stay in Ehugou. I want your husband to accompany me to Huai'an to help me. What do you think?"

Feng Yuan did not treat the other party politely.

Hu Liusheng revealed to Tan Youdao what had happened in Ehugou in the past few days with his permission in advance.

Even after the other party knew that the owner of the cottage had changed, he still rushed back for two or three days, which shows that he had already taken refuge in his heart.

For a person as smart as Tan Youdao, you don't need to say too much, just show a little attitude, and the other person will understand.

"My subordinates are willing to follow you!"

Tan Youdao was also very decisive and agreed immediately. He originally didn't want to hang out in the Green Forest Village, but now that he has a better future, there is no need to hesitate there.

"Okay, since Mr. Tan agreed, let's not waste time. Here is the money and grain book of Ehugou. Go and ask Zhao Heng to select two hundred good men, prepare the carriages and horses, and transport these weapons, grain and grass to Pizhou!"

Although Feng Yuan occupied Pizhou, the population of Pizhou has been reduced by more than half after years of war, and there are not many grain, grass, supplies, weapons and equipment in the city.

These materials from Ehugou are being transported back to meet the emergency.

In this day and age, even if Feng Yuan has money, he may not be able to buy what he wants.

In places like Shandong and Henan, you can’t buy food even if you have money.

The only Jiangnan that can be used as a base for grain and grass supplies is still the territory of Zhao Zhilong and Xu Hongji. Only after the Jinlong Gang is conquered can the food purchasing channels in Jiangnan be opened.

Tan Youdao took the booklet and accepted the order in a deep voice.

For him, this matter of allocating materials and transporting grain and fodder was very simple.

Hu Liusheng on the side was a little dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Feng Yuan and Tan Youdao just said a few words and made a master-slave plan and made the next plan.

A few days later, Feng Yuan asked Zhao Heng to stay in Ehugou, promoted Hu Liusheng to the second village leader, and returned to Pizhou with Tan Youdao and others.

In Feng Yuan's plan, Ehugou only needs to maintain the status quo and be able to know the news of the major state capitals in Shandong as soon as possible.

…

After returning to Pizhou, Feng Yuan continued to make big moves, causing waves of turmoil.

Train new soldiers, suppress powerful landowners in the state, and clean up bandits in the mountains and forests.

They also gathered the manpower of the various military households in Pizhou, re-measured the land of the guards, and cleaned up the military camps... All kinds of things were complicated, and Jiang Yingjie, Tan Youdao and others were very tired.

However, while busy, the power under Feng Yuan also began to grow rapidly.

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, in the lobby of the Pizhou County Government Office, Feng Yuan sat at the top with a dignified demeanor. On the left and right sides sat his civil and military officials.

The leader on the left is Jiang Yingjie. He was born in the Zhou Palace and has served beside Feng Yuan from the beginning. He has deep qualifications. Now he is in charge of the palace's left guard and fire gun team, and his status is only lower than Feng Yuan.

Beside him, there were five or six people including Gu Rujin, Huang Shouzheng, etc. Among them, Gu Rujin was in charge of the internal affairs of the palace, responsible for the boxer trainers recruited from the martial arts world, and also responsible for intelligence gathering.

The five or six people next to Huang Shouzheng are talents promoted from the newly reorganized royal army, and will all be middle-level generals in the army in the future.

On the left is the man in charge of the army, and on the right is the scribe.

The scribes on the right are headed by Tan Youdao. There are seven or eight people sitting next to him. Some are former officials of the Pizhou government, and some are recruited talents. They are all capable people.

After such a long period of development, Feng Yuan’s men were finally equipped with both civil and military skills, and a vibrant small group was established.
