After the meeting, Lu Shi announced new personnel changes.

"The captain of the Lao Eighth Brigade remains unchanged, the Artisan Battalion Archery Battalion's Women's Army remains unchanged, and the vacancies of deputies at all levels who are killed or seriously injured in the battle will be filled by those who have made meritorious service in the Yanchuan Battle recommended by the captains and military commanders at each level."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Lu Shi continued: "Geng Kui, the official captain of the cavalry."

Geng Kui was overjoyed at the time. He was about to express King Chuang's trust in him when Guo Tianxing stood up and objected, "King Chuang, we agreed last night. I will be the captain of the cavalry. How can you change your mind?"

Lu Shi smiled bitterly and said, "Commander, please be patient and listen to what I'm about to say."

Guo Tianxing reluctantly sat down.

Lu Shi put aside the matter of Geng Kui's visit to Tianxing and said directly to Cao Meng: "Brother Cao Meng is in charge of the garrison and military supplies. I will leave our foundation to you. Wan Wang will pay attention." Cao Meng stood up and saluted: "I will definitely live up to Chuang.

Wang Zhongtuo."

"Brother Chen Ce, as the civil affairs manager of the two bases, you have a heavier burden." Chen Ce was overjoyed. This is the first assistant's responsibility in terms of the imperial court. This shows Lu Shi's trust in him. He quickly stood up and pressed

Zhu Zhu was happy in his heart and said calmly: "I will do my best to manage the place well."

"Third uncle, you have worked hard. You have to worry about all the finances of the old camp." Lu Shi saluted the third uncle again. He is a wise, responsible and generous old man. After the battle, he has lost a lot of weight. He should be allowed to

The old man should have a good rest, but now the village is in a difficult situation and the logistics are even more difficult, so he can only carry him out.

The third uncle laughed and said, "Don't worry, King Chuang. It's just a housekeeper, it's nothing hard. I'll be satisfied when I see you brothers working together to accomplish something great."

Chen Ce laughed and said: "You are not the housekeeper. According to the rules of the court, you are the chief official of the Ministry of Household Affairs. You are the first rank. I am here to join the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, sir, hahaha." So everyone was happy together.

He was excited to congratulate and booed, which made the third uncle even more pregnant.

"Zhao Xing's position remains unchanged, and Chen San, as his deputy, must make our sergeant a true clairvoyant and a selfless supervisor."

Zhao Xing just gave a faint salute to Lu Shi, and then saluted the leaders, saying apologetically: "I will definitely offend you in the future. Please forgive me for the sake of being a copycat."

Everyone kept saying they didn't dare, but they looked a little distant when they saw Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing knew that his position was the former part-time inspector of the East and West Factory. He was above all the people except King Chuang and the commander. He was the one who offended people and was the alienated group. However, as long as he did it

For this village, for this group, for Chuang Wang, he devoted all his efforts to be loyal, even if he was misunderstood.

Chen San was a little nervous and uneasy. He had just joined and was entrusted with an important task by King Chuang without any great achievements. How could he feel at ease? He must achieve great achievements and let all the brothers in the village see his abilities.

"Guang Wu is good at fighting and loyal. For the time being, I will make him the commander of the garrison at Chenjiabao. I am not familiar with Black Tiger Village here, so I would like to ask the commander-in-chief to recommend a reliable person. Both of these two people are under Cao Meng's command."

"No problem." Guo Tianxing said carelessly. "But, I still have the same request, which is to be the cavalry captain." Before the wry smile Lu Shi could say anything, he smiled evilly at Geng Kui and said: "Brother Geng Kui, do your best.

, be my deputy, and I will not treat you badly when the time comes."

Geng Kui didn't look excited at all at that time. The first level of officialdom was overwhelming. It seemed that in the future, he should ask King Chuang to transfer him.

"Commander, we discussed it last night. As the commander of the mountain village, you are responsible for the entire army. How could you-" Lu Shi quickly reminded Tianxing.

"Yes, I am responsible for the entire army. This cavalry is also under my control, right? Therefore, I am in charge of the entire army and concurrently serve as the captain of the cavalry team. Otherwise, what else would I want Brother Geng Kui to do?" When he said this, it was

Very confidently.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, the people in the hall began to talk about it as if it had nothing to do with themselves, and each of them went to their brothers to talk about their own matters.

Back then, Guo Tianxing knelt on one knee and presented the banner with the word "Chuang" to Lu Shi in front of everyone. Lu Shi also solemnly took over the banner of blood and smoke. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. King Chuang had finally achieved his goal.

Well deserved, but now it seems that there is no need to repeat this.

Of course, this is a matter between the two of them and has nothing to do with everyone. Anyway, the commander-in-chief himself is actually the boss. He often just says a word and everything is decided by the sir. King Chuang is the leader of a copycat village, not the leader, but

It's just a name.

Everyone was happy and united.

Lu Shi had no choice but to announce again: "The commander-in-chief and I are responsible for all affairs in the village. The commander-in-chief focuses on military affairs, and I focus on civil affairs."

Everyone was stunned, what is this? King of the same word? But after looking at Tianxing's proud face, everyone suddenly realized that this military was more focused than Tianxing, but it still wanted to conquer the king and arrange for management everywhere? It seems that the copycat is finally still

The focus is on Chuang Wang, which is something that reassures everyone. With this arrangement, it is a transition, a smooth transition, and this is what everyone wants to see.

This kind of compromise is indeed a compromise between Guo Tianxing and Lu Shi. Last night, Guo Tianxing, Lu Shi, Chen Ce, Zhao Xing and others had a big quarrel over this. In the end, Guo Tianxing threatened to give up his choice and become a ranger.

this situation.

"This is the personnel arrangement. Do you have any opinions or suggestions?" After Lu Shi explained the arrangement, he began to solicit everyone's opinions. Everyone present agreed, so it was decided.

After arranging these, everyone immediately plunged into the enthusiastic reorganization training, and the originally dilapidated Black Tiger Village became vigorous again.

Chenjiabao was a small place and could not accommodate the old and young of Woniushan. Therefore, after leaving Guangwu's garrison behind, most of them moved to Heihu Village, where they dug cave dwellings, built houses, and leveled the school ground.

The craftsman camp also built stoves in the hidden places in the back mountains, and recruited craftsmen from the refugees in Chenjiabao and the original Black Tiger Village to open stoves and make weapons and equipment.

The bow and arrow battalion went up the mountain again to look for materials suitable for making longbows. This time, they found better materials, figured out better manufacturing techniques, and greatly improved the performance of the longbows (Baidu has detailed information on this)

, I won’t pile them up to avoid the suspicion of filling up the word count, hehehe.)

The Lao Eighth Team also began to complete its renovation, restored its original organization, and carried out vigorous training according to the original method. Not only did the enthusiasm not decrease, but it became even higher than before. Of course, everyone fought harder at noon.

After Chen San saw all this, he became even more loyal to this vibrant group and worked more diligently and responsibly. As a local, he shouldered the heavy burden of going to the city to purchase.

Fu County was hit by military disasters one after another, which turned what was once an important merchant town in southern Shaanxi into a state of dilapidation. The guardhouses and defenses were all gone, and it became an undefended city. This provided convenience for merchants from all over the country to sell prohibited materials. At the same time,

It also provides convenience for Black Tiger Army Chen San’s purchase.

In Fuxian County, the sudden appearance of this wealthy financier gave those businessmen who had been damaged by being robbed a chance to make money. For a time, as long as the copycats needed it, as long as the price could be higher than usual,

If it’s 20%, then it’ll be great

They were constantly trafficked by these merchants with great eyes. For a time, the medicinal materials, salt, iron, saltpeter, etc. that were urgently needed in the village were continuously transported to the village by Chen San. At the same time, he also cautiously extended his tentacles to Yan'an and other imperial courts.

Important place.

Lu Shi was overjoyed when he heard the news. He immediately discussed with Zhao Xing and Chen San to withdraw a sum of money from his third uncle's already tight money reserves and open shops in Fu County and even Yan'an City in the name of business.

, firstly, he can purchase supplies for himself and others, and secondly, he can act as a spy to collect intelligence for the village. It can be said that he kills several birds with one stone. This allowed Zhao Xing and Chen San to see Lu Shi's great wisdom and methods again.

Of course, in that era when intelligence was ignored, this was indeed something far ahead of its time.

As time goes by, the expected heavy snow has not fallen. It seems that God is still unwilling to let go of the mountains and the land. The drought will continue. The government has undergone major changes one after another, and it is even more exhausted and pushed too hard. In this winter, in

In the first year of Chongzhen, he began to press for taxes on food and grain for seven years. Earlier, the border troops mutinied and poisoned the place.

The white land of Yansui was looted again. The officers and soldiers who encircled and suppressed the mutinous border troops looted the whitewashed land again. After several times, only a few villages and a little smoke could be seen in this Fu County.

, completely extinct, the people living here cannot be described as dire, it is a dead end.

At this time, the prosperous Black Tiger Village gradually attracted the attention of the lonely and helpless refugees around it, and refugees began to rush to the village with their families, asking to be taken in and join.

Shanzhai also had a surplus of food after acquiring Chenjiabao's century-old family business. What's more, if it wanted to develop, it needed people, so Shanzhai opened its doors to attract refugees.

But this time things went wrong. Lu Shi and others never expected that there would be so many refugees. In just a few dozen days, the originally spacious Black Tiger Village was packed to the brim, but people were still coming to join them.

Keep coming.

This brings up a fatal problem, that is, placement.

Chenjiabao and Black Tiger Village are now completely unable to meet the problem of placement of these personnel. At the same time, a strategic depth problem has also arisen. Once the official army attacks next year, both Black Tiger Village and Chenjiabao will be surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Being in an enemy situation, we now need a place that can not only house the refugees, but also provide a stable rear area.

But now rest and training are what people like him need to do most. They send troops to seize a place, and the Black Tiger Army is temporarily unable to do anything. This makes Lu Shi frown all day long at the surrounding map recently drawn by the supervisor.

This situation was noticed by the thoughtful Chen San, so he took it seriously.

One day, Chen San hurried back to the village to ask for a meeting with Lu Shi.

When Chen San put down the water that Lu Shi poured, he said politely: "King Chuang, I went to the county town to buy some goods the day before yesterday and got a piece of news that may be useful to the village."

Lu Shi smiled and asked, "What's the news? Let me tell you."

Chen San hurriedly said, "The day before yesterday, I heard in the county town that my former brother Wu Tao dropped grass not far from our village. That place is called Hulu Valley. It is small on the outside and large on the inside. There are rivers in the valley and the land is crisscrossed."
