Chapter 99: Be Prepared

(I made a trip, and only made one appointment. I went for an enhanced MRI on Monday. I knew something was wrong with me, but I didn’t know how big the problem was. It was such a hard day! Well, Monday and Tuesday were both in the hospital.

I’ve passed. I’ll have an MRI on Monday and a gastrointestinal endoscopy on Tuesday. People, don’t be sick, no matter what. Friends, take good care of your body!)

"Open the cellar!" Following the loud shout of Zhu Laoyao, the young and strong leader, everyone who had been waiting around for a long time clasped their hands and prayed silently to God.

Young Master Zhu originally wanted Xiao Chenglai to open the first cellar in person, but Xiao Cheng refused, so this job had to be done by Young Master Zhu, who is a master in this industry.

As the hammer was drilled down, the mud seal of the cellar was broken, and several bricks fell out with a crashing sound. Zhu Laoyao looked inside for a long time through the opened gap, and then returned

He turned around and waved his arms excitedly: "One cellar of good bricks, one cellar of good bricks!"

Everyone cheered immediately.

Xiao Cheng, like everyone else, raised his arms and cheered together. These days, brick-making often depends on luck, especially for a new cellar that has just been built. Whether it succeeds or fails depends on the most experienced master, and he also feels that in his heart

Bottomless.

The six cellars became five, and one cellar was destroyed. Youngest Zhu was still full of joy.

If you succeed the first time, it will be much easier next time. Even if it is burnt to waste, you can still find the fault and correct it. With bricks, it will be much easier to build a house and expand the fortress next time.

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Xiao Cheng said congratulations to Zhu Lao Yao, "A reward will be given to everyone who participated in building the cellar and burning the cellar. You, the foreman, will receive the largest share!"

"Thank you so much, Xiao Xianxian!" Zhu Laoyao said happily.

"This is what you deserve." Xiao Cheng said: "Lao Zhu, make arrangements for leaving the cellar. Then you come to my room and we have a meeting!"

"Okay!" Zhu Laoyao nodded repeatedly.

When the youngest Zhu appeared in Xiao Cheng's room with the aura of fireworks, Xin Jian and He Zheng were already sitting upright. After repeatedly confessing, the youngest Zhu sat down at the bottom.

After walking down the road with Xiao Cheng for such a long time, I became very familiar with some of Xiao Cheng's working methods.

"Okay, now except for Luo Gang who took the caravan to purchase and has not returned, the other managers are all here." Xiao Cheng knocked on the table: "Now we have a meeting."

"Erlang, just ask!" Xin Jian said, cupping his hands.

"It's not an order, it's a meeting. The meeting is just for discussion!" Xiao Cheng said: "For example, I have read a lot about military matters, but I have no serious military experience. The last time I dealt with the Weiming tribe was in my life.

The first battle. Let’s talk about farming and building houses. I don’t know how much better Zhu Zhu is than me!”

"Erlang is so self-effacing!" said the three people in the room, shaking their hands wildly.

"Okay, I'm not being modest. You decide how to do things. I'll set rules for certain things. This is considered as everyone doing their best." Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "Let's talk about military matters first. Everyone has seen it.

, the Weiming people have suffered such a big loss at our hands, whether they will swallow it is still a question. At present, based on the intelligence from all parties, what we can be sure of is that big people like Renduo and Tuoba

The tribes will never wade into this muddy water. As for the small tribes, it is hard to say how many of them will be incited by the Weiming clan, but Yeli and Xifeng will help us contact them."

"That is to say, if there is still a war, it will basically only be the Weiming clan." Xin Jian said.

"That's the theory!" Xiao Cheng said: "But one thing we have to pay attention to is that the Weiming tribe has always been a powerful arm that Li Xu extended to Hengshan for the trouble-making army. This time we severely cut this arm and injured it.

It’s not just the Weiming tribe that has been harmed, but it has also hurt Li Xu’s face, making it more difficult for the Weiming tribe to win over other tribes in Hengshan. Therefore, it is not ruled out that Li Xuhui will send people to help. Weiming

The Ministry will definitely not spend all its wealth to fight with us again, but if we have Li Xu's support and send reinforcements, the result will be different."

"Then how should we respond?" Xin Jian asked.

"If you want to attack Shentang Fort, there are only so many ways!" Xiao Cheng said: "We must send more scouts and sentinels to ensure that we can obtain the enemy's military information in advance. If something happens, we can fight a well-prepared battle.

.My youngest, all the bricks fired in this first furnace will be used to renovate and renovate the Shentang Fortress to ensure that its defensive function can be used to fight against enemies several times our size. You are the city defense

Experts in the field, you have participated in the construction of many defense facilities in Tianmen Village. You are responsible for this matter. As for military reconnaissance and preparation for war, Xin Jian and He Zheng are responsible for it. Five hundred regular troops,

Don’t get involved in any other affairs and concentrate on preparing for war.”

"Yes!" The three people in the room nodded.

"Be prepared for everything. I always feel that there will be another battle to be fought. As long as we win this battle, they will not dare to mess with us again." Xiao Cheng said: "By the way, Miao Tongzhi brought us

Who is in charge of those common people now?"

Zhu Laoyao said: "Chen Qiao is in charge, but Erlang, who are the people sent by the Miao government? They are either old women or old men, or they are weak and sick at first sight. Women and children account for almost half of them. They are here to help.

Are they keeping us in the fields? Were they sent by the Miao government to cause trouble for us?"

"In any case, they are all the people around Dingbian City. From now on, they will also be the people under the rule of eldest brother, and they still have to be managed. Old man and old woman? You can make it all the way here, so your health is pretty good. Let's do that.

, the large piece of land we just burned needs manpower to plow now. We have no shortage of livestock or plowshares. These old men can plow, right? The soil has been burned loose, that is.

Women and children can also do it."

The youngest Zhu nodded: "Chen Qiao said the same."

"Well, this person still has some discernment!" Xiao Cheng praised him and said, "Tell Chen Qiao later that in addition to ensuring that these people have good food, you should also set a certain amount of completion for them every day.

For example, for those who use livestock, how much needs to be completed, and for those who use hoes, how much needs to be completed. This needs to be measured carefully so that they can complete it."

"OK."

"Wages are paid daily!"

"Pay back the wages?" Zhu Laoyao asked in surprise. "This is a forced labor service. How can we pay the wages? We, the Guangruijun family, have never asked for wages."

"Guang Ruijun's family is creating a safe home for themselves!" Xiao Cheng said: "But these people are different. And if we don't give money, how can we attract more people to work here? Give us

Chen Qiao said, if there are those who exceed the quota, then we will increase the money. We must let these people know that they can earn more working here than they can at home."

"There is nowhere to make money at home now!" Zhu Laoyao said: "We are all preparing for Mao Dong."

"That would be even better. Don't these old women and children have sons, nephews, brothers, and husbands at home? When they see money being made, will they find a way to tell their family members to run here?" Xiao Cheng said with a smile.

"Everyone, don't be afraid of paying. We are not short of money now. What we have to do now is to set up the camp here in the shortest possible time and complete the expansion of Shentang Fort. Once the main force arrives, we can directly

Do business."

Everyone suddenly realized, and Xin Jian gave a thumbs up: "Erlang is still very clever, and Miao Shou probably can't think of us being able to pull this off. When a large number of young men come to me, how dare he stop me?"

?If he really dares to stop me, I will sue him openly."

Xiao Cheng chuckled, thinking that I have many tricks up my sleeve. When the decisive battle was held in Qionglin Garden, I was even planning to abduct your baby!

"What to do with those prisoners?" He Zhengdao: "Is it still the same as before?"

"What kind of work do they have to do? For this matter, dozens of soldiers have been assigned to maintain security. If there is any sign of bad things, Wuhe will be killed immediately! Now, there is no mercy." Xiao Cheng said coldly.

Said: "When I discussed with my brother how to quell the rebellion in Hengshan, we felt that we should both fight and pull. The person who was beaten was Li Xu's possible accomplice. But once we take action, we must not show mercy. To put it bluntly,

, since this Weiming tribe jumped out first and provoked us, neither I nor my brother will definitely wipe them out of Hengshan. At the moment, I am not strong enough, so I can only be on the defensive and wait for him.

If it attacks again, when big brother comes, we will turn from defense to attack, grab this fat sheep and beat it to death. This is to establish our authority."

"Will it make all the people in Hengshan lose their lips and teeth?"

"So we want to open a market in Shentangbao, do business, trade fairly with the Tibetan people in Hengshan, and exchange what we have! Do you know how difficult it is for the Tibetan people in Hengshan to trade fairly? In the past, the imperial court

To deal with them is to either ask them to pay tribute, or to take and buy them. Ha, this is skinning others! Remember, economic interests, enough economic interests, can bring former enemies together and become interests.

Community.”

"Everyone has been working hard these days, especially General Xin Zheng and Captain He. The army is the guarantee for all of us. If something goes wrong here, Shentang Castle will be over." Xiao Cheng said.

"Don't worry, Erlang." Xin Jian and He Zheng quickly stood up and bowed.

The door was pushed open with a creak, and Li Xin poked his head in: "Erlang, a scout just sent news that an army is coming to Shentang Fort."

"Army? Where did it come from?"

"It's the direction of Dingbian Town!" Seeing the sudden change in the expressions of several people in the room, Li Xin said quickly: "The scouts went to ask, and the leader was a general who said he was from Yan'an Prefecture, and it was Ma Yasuo who heard that

After we defeated the Weiming tribe, we were worried about the revenge of the tribes in Hengshan, so we sent them."

Xiao Cheng and others looked at each other, and they all looked at each other.

How much does Ma Xing mistrust Miao Shou to do such a thing!

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
