With the Jie Feng Banquet intimidating them, Ju Shou and Tian Feng took office smoothly and performed their duties smoothly. Not only were the original registrar and the county magistrate very cooperative, but even the people from the three major families were on call, for fear of offending these two people and causing Yuan Shu's displeasure.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was half a moon. The personnel and materials allocated by Yuan Feng had already arrived at Zhending. In order to arrange for the three thousand craftsmen and their families, Yuan Shu specially took out the property deeds seized from the Sun Mansion and obtained them from Zhending residents.
There is enough area in hand.
The craftsman was easy to do, but the allocation of the two thousand armored soldiers made him worried. Zhao Yun, Gao Lan and Wen Chou all eagerly hoped that they would assign the men to their hands. For this reason, they only wanted to come here eight times a day.
Three people gathered in the prefect's mansion again, which made Yuan Shu's heart tremble when he saw them.
"My lord, you must give me an answer today. How will these two thousand elites be allocated? Anyway, my militia is just training for the first time and it is the time when I am short of manpower. I don't think my lord will just die without saving me~"
Wen Chou had a sinister face and a careful heart. Before Zhao Yun Gao Lan could speak, he preemptively asked for troops.
"Wen Si Lian, that's not necessarily true. You brought all the former commanders and commanders of the county soldiers into the militia.
Changshan Wuqu is in short supply of manpower now. Even if the master arranges it, it must be arranged with me first.
After all, Changshan Wuqu is the face of Changshan County in name, don’t you think so, my lord?”
Not to be outdone, Zhao Yun used a flurry of witty remarks to completely eliminate Wen Chou's disadvantages.
"You still have the nerve to say that if we talk about face, the Taipei Guards are the Lord's face.
Now there are only a few hundred cavalry under my command, which is still far from the scale of a thousand. How about I pick up a thousand cavalry first and give you the rest~"
At this time, Gao Lan was still the honest man he had been before. For these elites, he was willing to go out of his way to compete with his junior brother.
"Senior brother, the Taipei Guards are all cavalry. If you want people, you can exchange them for close cavalry. I won't frown if I trade one for two~"
"That's it, if it doesn't work, what about changing one to three? If not, let's switch. You will be the commander of the militia training, and I will be the captain of the guard and be in charge of the lord's guard~"
Hearing Gao Lan's words, Wen Chou and Zhao Yun united again. He was speechless and could only curl his lips and dare not speak.
After taking care of Gao Lan, Zhao Yun and Wen Chou stared at each other like cockfighting cocks.
"Okay~"
Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Yuan Shu couldn't help but frown. If these two people got into a quarrel just because of the recruitment of troops, it would be more of a loss than a gain.
"No~"
"No~"
Seeing Yuan Shu's expression was wrong, Zhao Yun and Wen Chou's hearts trembled, something bad happened~
"Generals are most afraid of quarrels and suspicions. One chopstick was gently broken, and ten pairs of chopsticks were tightly hugged into a ball. Unity is strength. What I need is a fist to hit people, not a slap to slap the wind. You
do you understand?"
Looking at Yuan Shu's dark face, Zhao Yun and Wen Chou lowered their heads, and Gao Lan was no exception.
"Wen Chou~"
"Here~"
"The two thousand armored soldiers who came this time all belong to the militia. In addition, all the elite soldiers from Changshan Wuqu also belong to the militia."
"Lord, is this true?"
Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Wen Chou couldn't believe his ears. To be honest, Yuan Shu's arrangement was exactly what he thought.
"I keep my word, how could I still lie to you~"
"Lord, I will take away all the veterans from Changshan Wuqu. Then I only need 1,500 of the 2,000 armored soldiers. The remaining 500 will be left to Zilong~"
If a militia group wants to be organized into an army, the skeleton is indispensable, and now the best choice is the soldiers of Changshan County who have been with them through life and death. With these veterans and the elite armored soldiers they have received, even if there are less than 500 people,
He is also confident that the militia he trains will definitely be a formidable and powerful army.
"What's yours is yours, there's so much nonsense~"
"Zilong, brother, I'm sorry~"
Wen Chou took the military card from Yuan Shu and looked at Zhao Yun with a somewhat guilty look in his eyes.
Not to mention how much Zhao Yun regretted it now. Not only did he not grab the armored soldiers, but he also gave away the original elite soldiers. This time he really lost his wife and lost his troops. Now Changshan Wuqu has completely started from scratch.
Looking at Zhao Yun's face that was about to cry, Yuan Shu couldn't help but want to laugh.
Who would have thought that the famous Changshan Zhao Zilong would have such a little womanly attitude, I don't know how many jaws will drop if I tell you.
"Zilong, don't be angry first. If you give up, you will gain. Naturally, I won't treat you badly.
I decided to adapt Shan Wuqu into cavalry, with a number of 2,500 people, and you can recruit them yourself.
In addition to supplementing the consumption of close cavalry, the one thousand war horses obtained from Cordier will be given to you. The war horses purchased by Zhao Bing will also be given priority to you when the time comes.
In addition, how about a thousand powerful crossbows recovered from the Sun family and the inventory in the treasury, I guarantee that your new soldiers will have one in hand?"
"Really, my lord? Yun heard that right~"
The great joy after the great tragedy is even more exciting. Zhao Yun almost jumped up when he heard Yuan Shu's words. You must know that his childhood wish was to lead a cavalry to defend Huo, drive out foreigners, and protect our great country. Unexpectedly
Now the wish is about to come true.
"That's right, I have already told you that I, the governor, have kept his promise. In addition, Gao Lan will dispatch a hundred close cavalry from you and incorporate them into Zhao Yun's cavalry."
"No~"
Without waiting for Gao Lan to refute, Zhao Yun directly agreed, then looked at his senior brother with a smile.
"Senior brother, I'm sorry. I want Yuan Ding, Yuan Fang, Yuan Ping, and Yuan Yu to ride close."
Zhao Yun ordered all the commanders in Yuan Shu's cavalry in one breath, which almost made Gao Lan angry to death.
If he had known that he would have such a demerit, he would not come here to swim in the muddy water even if he was killed. Now it is good. Wen Chou not only got two thousand armored soldiers, but also brought three to four hundred iron-blooded county soldiers. The junior brother got the Wuqu cavalry establishment and supporting equipment.
Jinnu, what about yourself?
Not only did he have no hair, but he also gave his junior fellow apprentice a hundred horsemen. It was really a bloody misfortune for eight lifetimes.
"Junior brother, you can't be too rogue. As my lord said, a hundred close cavalry means two teams of men and horses. You choose from several team leaders, and whoever you choose will be under your command.
"
Gao Lan looked at Zhao Yun with a dark face, wondering how he felt.
"Then I want Yuan Fang and Yuan Ding~"
Zhao Yun's smile turned into two crescent moons, and he directly clicked Yuan Ding and Yuan Fang away.
"Okay, I will arrange for them to report to your military camp~"
Looking at the smiling faces of Wen Chou and Zhao Yun, and then looking at Gao Lan's bitter face, Yuan Shu finally couldn't hold back and laughed.
"Boyu, don't look like this. I'm going to turn the prefect's close cavalry into armored cavalry. When the time comes, I'll leave all this to you for training. As soon as you get the armor and equipment, I will instruct the craftsman camp to build them with all their strength and give priority to meeting your needs.
