Wu Dong led his troops to demonstrate clearly what it meant to have an army moving in all directions.
In just over a month, two more large estates fell into the hands of Wu Dong's Wagang Army.
Still using the same routine, Wu Dong threw a hammer and smashed the door, and his brothers rushed in. They easily defeated the weak resistance and captured two large estates.
This time, Shan Xiongxin, who had always been with the army, refused to leave Wu Dong's side. When the gate of the manor he was attacking was smashed open, he charged fiercely at all costs and showed a good performance.
Of course, his martial arts skills were still much inferior to Wu Dong's, so when he struggled with the second-rate masters in the manor, it would inevitably take a little longer.
This made him feel a little embarrassed. After that, whether it was cleaning the battlefield or counting the loot, he worked hard without any complaints, as if his talent was not enough to make up for it.
The operation was similar to that of the first manor. The tenants and tenants were guided to complain about murder and trade certificates. Then they divided the fields, established household registration files, and built basic schools. The two recently acquired manors were easily stabilized.
At this time, Wu Dong stopped expanding and grabbing land.
The weather is getting colder and colder. Although the brothers' bodies are strong, they are not immune to the cold and heat, so it is better to take it easy.
The New Year is approaching, and Wu Dong can clearly feel that the murderous nature in the hearts of his brothers is slowly dissipating as time goes by.
In this case, they can calmly organize the new manor, which will be enough for them to digest it for a while.
Wu Dong was not a solitary person, so after his brothers had settled down on the manor, he took Xu Shiji and half of the loot directly to Zhai Rang, the big leader in Wagang.
The weather was sunny that day, and the newly built meeting hall in Wagang was bustling with activity.
Almost all the elders of Wagang came over and talked about it.
There was no way they could help it. They heard that Wu Dong, together with most of his brothers, conquered three manors in a row in less than two months. How could they not feel a little jealous?
It's a pity that they can't imitate even if they want to, so they can only stare behind his back.
The questions Xu Shiji originally asked Wu Dong were the most realistic portrayal of them.
The cold weather is not a good time to mobilize troops, and it is very inconsistent with normal military practice.
Their brothers, but not Wu Dong's battalion brothers, after more than half a year of training, all of them are strong and strong and not afraid of the cold.
If they dare to take most of the troops out at this time, they may suffer widespread injuries before they even get to the place.
In this day and age, a cold can be fatal, and no one dares to joke with the lives of their brothers in the camp.
Even they themselves are mostly third-rate warriors, and their ability to withstand severe cold is, to be honest, average.
In this case, we can only stay in Wagang Mountain Stronghold and listen to the news of Wu Dong's troops' three consecutive victories.
Privately, they encouraged Zhai Rang, the leader, to send supervisory troops to share the rich spoils seized by Wu Dong's troops.
We are all Wagang brothers. We can't just watch Wu Dong's subordinates drink spicy food, so they can only drink northwest wind and drink cold water, right?
It's a pity that such a bad idea was naturally not approved by Zhai Rang, and he didn't listen at all. He just cheerfully expressed that Brother Wu Dong was not a stingy person.
No, Wu Dong sent people back early to tell the leader Zhai Rang and his colleagues that he was about to return with a large amount of loot.
Of course, you don’t need to think too much about the meaning behind his words. Wu Dong took the initiative to share the benefits with everyone.
After hearing the news, without waiting for the orders of the great leader Zhai Rang, a group of Wagang elders gathered in the meeting hall to wait for Wu Dong to come with the loot on the day Wu Dong was about to return.
"I heard that the food alone from the three manors Wu Dong robbed is enough for our village to survive for half a year!"
"Not that much, I heard that a lot of money was seized, but I don't know how much exactly!"
"Hey, if I had known that sending troops in the cold winter would be so effective, I would have trained my brothers well and gone out with them to eat and drink well!"
"Hehe, you talk nicely, but don't look at how strict Wu Dong is in training his brothers. He is willing to spend money on his brothers. Can you do it?"
"Why can't it be done? If I knew that sending troops in the cold winter would bring big gains, I would give it a try even if I train people to death!"
"Training people to death? Those guys at the head of your camp are afraid of mutiny!"
"If you look down on people, how can your camp leader be so good?"
"Big Dragon Head, I have the most brothers. When the time comes to distribute the benefits, we have to divide them according to the head!"
"Why? Big dragon head, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. If you want to divide, just divide it according to the head of the camp. How do you count the heads?"
"That's right, there are a lot of refugees around Wagang anyway. If you count them all as brothers at the head of your camp, won't we suffer a big loss?"
"Am I that kind of person?"
"..."
Looking at the noisy elders, the big leader Zhai Rang sitting at the top had a wry smile on his face.
At this time, he missed Wu Dong's majestic and solemn state when he was in the village.
In front of Wu Dong, how could these guys in front of them have the guts to make a mistake?
"Big Dragon Head, Leader Wu Dong is back!"
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door, and the originally noisy sound in the meeting hall suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.
This scene made Zhai Rang secretly smile bitterly.
Of course, he had no other thoughts in his mind. If he were a hero, he would probably have murderous intentions towards Wu Dong at this time.
At the moment, he just let out a long sigh of relief.
…
Wu Dong presented the list of accounts, took the second seat, and said with a chuckle: "Big Dragon Head, please distribute these things according to the camp head, so that the brothers can have a good year!"
Having said this, he looked around and said leisurely: "Let the brothers know that they will not suffer any loss if they follow us!"
Zhai Rang took the list of accounts, glanced at it briefly, and glanced out of the corner of his eye at the veteran who was shouting the loudest before but was silent now. He was funny but also a little depressed.
"Then distribute these materials according to Brother Wu's wishes. Brothers, please remember to register at the logistics office when receiving them!"
All the Wagang elders breathed a sigh of relief and thanked them profusely.
After they got their respective quota lists and saw the rows of materials and quantities above, they couldn't help but smile and feel happy.
"Brother Wu, didn't you only capture three manors? Why do you have so many supplies?"
The atmosphere was lively, and one elder took the opportunity to boldly ask: "Not to mention food, there are also some cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, eggs, and a lot of money and other items. It's a bit exaggerated!"
"If I had known that there were so many supplies in the manor, I wouldn't have had to brave the cold wind and take my brothers to grab a handful!"
"This is 60% of all the materials seized from the three manors, and they are all here!"
Naturally, Wu Dong didn't care about such 'sour words', and smiled at the big leader Zhai Rang: "The other food, grass, money and materials must ensure the stability of the three manors!"
"In the spring of next year, we have to organize the farmers in the manor to cultivate hard, build water canals and conduct necessary drills during the slack period, so we have to have some reserves!"
"Brother Wu, you are already very generous!"
Zhai Rang waved his hand and said with a smile: "These money, food and materials should be handled by you, and speaking of which, all the brothers here have benefited from it!"
"What kind of words are these?"
Wu Dong disagreed, and said with a solemn face: "As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules. I think it would be good to take the opportunity to set up a rule to capture and hand over!"
After saying that, he looked around at the elders present and said slowly: "What do you think?"
"Okay, this is a good idea!" "What Brother Wu said is true!" "I think so too!" "That's how it should be!" "..."
No matter what he was thinking, facing Wu Dong who was very powerful with a straight face, none of the Wagang elders dared to refute him at this time.
Not to mention the benefits I just received, certain words cannot be said easily.
Seeing this scene, Xu Shiji, who was following him, couldn't help but reveal a strange chuckle.
He felt that it was definitely a good thing to have a presence like Wu Dong in Wagang.
If nothing else, at least a group of veterans won't mess around easily.
It’s true that the big leader Zhai Ranghaoqi Ganyun is very charming, but he has too much loyalty as a brother and his informal character can’t be ruthless.
A group of Wagang elders obviously knew his character thoroughly. They dared to shout in front of Da Longtou, but they did not dare to make trouble in front of leader Wu Dong.
Seeing that the matter of profit sharing came to an end, the big leader Zhai Rang suddenly asked: "By the way, Brother Wu, what are your plans for next year?"
As soon as this statement came out, all the Wagang elders, including Xu Shiji, all looked at Wu Dong, trying to figure out his specific thoughts.
As the first combat force of the Wagang Army, whether it is personal martial arts or the combat power of the battalion, he is ranked first among the Wagang Army, and his right to speak is not as important as usual.
"While waiting for the battle situation in Goguryeo, let's continue to tidy up the surrounding estates!"
Wu Dong did not hide his thoughts and said calmly: "At this time, the priority is to develop quietly, and there is no need to overly stimulate the surrounding officials!"
"I think that with our strength, we can completely attack the county town. The money, food and supplies inside are abundant!"
At this time, some elders could not help but express their ambitions.
"Shit, is the county seat so easy to attack?"
Wu Dong retorted unceremoniously and sneered: "I won't do this anyway. If brother has this idea, I will encourage you mentally!"
"Brother Wu, what you are doing is not stimulating the government and local powerful people?"
The man blushed at the refutation and bravely retorted: "Is it possible that they will just watch you occupy the manor outside?"
"This, I really can't say for sure!"
Wu Dong smiled and said leisurely: "At least, I can withstand the counterattack of the local powerful, it's that simple..."
