Chapter 218: Cuckoo and Xiaobao go out of the fortress

Chapter 218 Juanjuan Xiaobao went out to the frontier together

A lot of fruits were harvested, and they were transported out in batches during the fermentation process and sent to the outside place. They were shipped to the capital and prepared to continue fermentation there.

Zhang Zhong saw that the fruit was almost picked. After the local people changed the daily necessities they needed, he found the patriarchs of various villages here and drank and had fun with them.

The patriarchs of various villages were quite satisfied with Zhang Zhong, the new official, and did not use their official bodies to suppress them like other officials. Of course, they were not afraid.

During the period when Zhang Zhong arrived, he was like a local brother. He thought about things from the perspective of his brothers, which made the clan leader feel very comfortable.

Since some people are close and some are far away, Zhang Zhong had to prepare the things first and place the people who came first. After all, all the matters to be discussed later require the participation of all the patriarchs. If you say something to some people in advance, the people who later should not be willing to do so.

"Sima Fang, how many people are there?" Zhang Zhong sat in the yamen that day and asked Fang Sima who came over with the list.

"If you go back to the adults, there are still two left. I guess it will be within one day and a half. Do you want to summon everyone to act now?"

Fang Sima replied respectfully. He now admires Zhang Zhong, but even has a sense of fear. He has been Sima in Yizhou for six years. He used to be very troublesome to do things every year. The local people did not cooperate at all. He dared not scare others. If it was not good to scare, it would easily make people rebel directly.

When Zhang Zhong arrived, he thought that Zhang Zhong would do the same thing as he did, and went to various villages to discuss when he wanted to collect tribute.

Who knew that it was not the case at all. Zhang Zhong came here to have fun. He actually had a good relationship with local people while having fun. Not to mention now, all the villages recognized Zhang Zhong, the new official.

From this we can see that the Zhang family not only does business well, but also serves as an official. His son has indeed found a good place in the academy.

You can't offend me anymore. Even if Zhang Zhong is much younger than him, you have to look up to you, otherwise you will lose the opportunity.

Fang Sima has been telling herself this way these days, so as not to do something wrong in her behavior and cause Zhang Zhong's unhappiness.

Zhang Zhong also wrote a letter back because of Fang Sima's relationship, asking people there to take care of Sima's son below, and it would be better for him to pass the Jinshi and be at the top.

When he heard Fang Sima's words, Zhang Zhong shook his head and said, "No, even if the last person is missing, he has to wait for him to come. If something happens to him on the road, I have to go over and ask myself and ask someone from the village to come and discuss it. Then wait a little longer.

What about the limestone you bought in the name of the government? That is the key to the success or failure of this matter. Don’t be careless.”

"Sir, you're ready. You've picked up the people elsewhere to burn them, but now you don't give them money. They're always a little worried. They've called people over to tell me more than once, should you give them some benefits first?"

Fang Sima didn't know why Zhang Zhong bought so much limestone, and asked someone to burn it, and he also bought it. He still owe the debt to the government's name. If it were an ordinary personal transaction, he would have stopped doing it long ago.

Zhang Zhong was not in a hurry at all. The other party said, "Don't be afraid. If anyone wants to withdraw, tell him to send all the prepared ones and give them money immediately, but he will never use his family's things in the future and see how many people can stay in the end."

"Sir, where does that money come from?" Fang Sima Ke didn't think that the mansion could still take out the money.

"Of course, it's up to my family, so the next one is not needed. It's better to try to solve the government's affairs by the government. Now I have figured it out. As long as it's not time to use my own money, I won't use it."

Zhang Zhong was going to experiment with his own ideas in Yizhou, that is, his family would no longer easily make money in it unless it was a last resort.

Everything was arranged, and the two tribe leaders who came late finally arrived here and the conference could begin.

Old Man Bi and the other two also came to join in the fun with curious ideas, wanting to see what methods the Zhang family has, and at the same time verifying their guesses. Sometimes such games are really interesting, even if they always make mistakes.

The patriarchs sat in the hall, waiting for Zhang Zhong's arrival. At this time, they no longer had the usual idea of ​​calling each other brothers. After all, Zhang Zhong found them in the name of the government, so of course it was different.

In the past, if anyone dared to come to them in the name of the government, they would not say that they would come over, and it would be better if they didn't turn against each other. But now they don't feel disgusted with Zhang Zhong's actions at all. Zhang Zhong has brought them a lot of benefits, especially in the hospitals in the city, where many people have been treated.

In addition, when collecting fruits and exchanging items with the shops, the lives of 4,000 people in Yizhou have been better. Not to mention anything else, they can eat salt every day and every meal. Compared with the past, it is really unbearable to look back on the past.

Zhang Zhong did not make any long talk and directly told his plan, which was part of the plan left by his son. After doing this, there was also one that was linked to each other. It had not been seen for a long time, and this time it finally appeared again.

Old Man Bi and the other two listened carefully. There was not much content, it was very simple. They wanted to build a dam in the places where each village thought it was suitable. There was no need to have a small one. They could store the snow water on the mountain. The things used for repairing the dam were prepared. As long as the patriarch agreed, it could be implemented within a few days.

"This should be to boil cement in the local area. I guess the place will be cleaned up immediately after it is burned. This secret cannot be revealed."

Old Man Zhang held a glass of wine in his hand and sipped it in a small sip. He said that his wine was not something he had drunk by himself. Old Man Bi and Old Man Yao did not have it, mainly because he used to practice hard skills and did not pay attention to his health. When he was old, he was in this environment and his joints could not bear it and the pain was. According to the previous treatment methods, he could no longer relieve it.

Fortunately, there were powerful people in the Zhang family’s medical team, and they made another prescription, which was drinking alcohol, ant wine, half a pound of alcohol a day, but the degree was not high, but it was pure grain wine. With hot water bags and massage, it didn’t hurt so much yesterday, so I continued to drink today.

Old Man Bi also wanted to drink, but was stopped. He could only stare at him. He heard Old Man Zhang's words and said, "Everyone understands that he needs to use cement. The question is what to do next, what can he do when repairing a dam? Storage of water and then irrigation. This kind of thing that everyone can figure out is definitely not the Zhang family's method.

I have figured it out now. If you want to know what the Zhang family is going to do, you have to think about it infrequently. The more you think, the closer you may be. According to my opinion, the Zhang family is building a dam here, first, not entirely for irrigation, and second, not entirely for raising fish and shrimps.

This kind of consideration is the most accurate consideration in others' eyes, and it is not suitable for the Zhang family. Think about it, besides these two types, what else can you do to build a dam?"

"What else can I do? It's easy to wash clothes, so I don't have to look for rivers or dig wells to dig water. Does this count?" Old Man Yao also admitted to Old Man Bi's statement. If the Zhang family's plan is really so easy to guess, the Zhang family will not be the Zhang family, which would be disappointing.

"This is also considered one, but I guess it is impossible. The Zhang family is not a fool. In order to facilitate others to wash clothes, they spend a lot of money to build the dam. I guess they are putting a cruise ship on it and waiting for tourists to come." Old man Zhang added next to him.

Old Man Bi was confident and said to the two people: "After listening to you, I knew that the Zhang family would not build dams specifically for irrigation and raising fish, nor did they raising clothes or cruise ships. I summarized the rules. Anything that others could think of was not the main purpose of the Zhang family."

"It's better..." Old Man Zhang asked.

"For example, the charcoal used to filter sugar that is known now is definitely not the most important step. Otherwise, why is it just a part of the charcoal purchased by the Zhang family? Or is it purchased in advance? Would they not have thought that the wood here can also burn charcoal? It cannot be prepared for skiers."

Old Man Bi believed in his intuition and said confidently.

Just as the three old men kept speculating and denying, Zhang Zhong had already made arrangements. All the patriarchs of the village agreed to Zhang Zhong's solution. It was not that they thought this method was good or that it was because of Zhang Huishu's official status, but that they felt that the brother had brought up this matter and he had to take care of his brother's face no matter what.

On the contrary, you don’t have to wait for others to pay, just put some effort into it. If you do it well, you will get the benefits. If you don’t do it well, just treat it as a helper for your brother. You can’t let outsiders laugh at it. When your brother becomes an official here, you have to support him. Let those who want to laugh at it. The brother’s words are what the people of Yizhou mean.

A very simple idea, no matter the result, no matter whether it is right or wrong, it will be done when it is mentioned, just because everyone regards Zhang Zhong as a brother.

Zhang Zhong also understood the people's idea. His son's plan was based on this, saying that the local people are actually the best people. If the officials cannot do well, it is the problem of the officials. The local people summarize it in the simplest words: treat me with national talents, and I will repay them with national talents.

When you treat them as brothers and sisters, they also treat you as brothers. When you want to suppress them as an official, then wait. Faced with such a situation, if you want to solve it with the army, you will know one consequence, that is, the people are not afraid of death, but why do you fear it if you die?

Zhang Zhong succeeded. He was the first existence besides Zhuge Liang who was not a national identity to be recognized by others, just because he had the people in his heart.

After the matter was arranged, the details and subsequent events will be told to the tribe leaders in the future. Zhang Zhonghao took this opportunity to have fun with everyone, so he prepared to drink and eat, and laughed and sang and danced in the inner courtyard of the Zhang family. In the long night, everyone spent a night that had never been seen before. Everyone was here, and it was worth remembering.

When the people in Yizhou were not harvesting in autumn and were hurriedly repairing the dam, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also finished the tenth day's course.

While the two were about to continue the training, Pengzhou suddenly sent someone a message.

When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan saw the news, they really couldn't believe that Guo Tu was so stupid that he used all the teams in one place, without even pretending or restraining.

"He could not think his army was 150,000? That was only 15,000 people. The most annoying thing was that he didn't arrest or kill the people along the way. Isn't this just a careless person? Since it's a war, it's either you die or I die. Now, let's find out in advance, and the logistics food and grass were burned."

Wang Juan complained with a gloomy face. Guo Tu didn't know what he thought. He led 15,000 people to go through such a small number, and even asked the local people to do whatever they should do according to their previous life.

At this time, if you can't do it, you just wait for others to attack you. Are you still afraid that you will have many evil spirits on your body? How good is it to go home to farm.

Zhang Xiaobao didn't expect Guo Tu to do such a thing. He thought he was an international peace organization or a member of the peacekeeping force?

This is the invasion. What else is there to say about invasion? Kill what should be killed and burn what should be burned. At that time, all the crimes will be over by one person. Even if he kills many civilians, what if he kills? People in the motherland will remember his goodness. There are many people killed, but there is still a shrine?

The more I thought about it, the more angry he became. After reading the news twice, Zhang Xiaobao said depressedly: "Who the hell did the imperial court's order? If you don't come early or late, you must come stuck at this time, saying that we will follow the front army together to win victory.

Grandma, from the court to this place, the news has been spread for a long time, right? They really believe in Guo Tu so much? They even let them go after me, which makes me angry. Now, the officials in Pengzhou don’t have to worry about dereliction of duty.”

Wang Juan was also very helpless. She knew that this was the compensation from the court to her and Xiaobao's family. She thought that Guo Tu could fight to the end and win perfectly, so that they could take advantage of the past. If they had made contributions at that time, they would continue to benefit.

"It should be Li Longji. He felt that he had transferred my father from Shuzhou to Yizhou and concealed the situation. He did something wrong. He used this war to gain benefits for my family, but why didn't he think about it? Guo Tu was not another general, so he was stunned when he went up.

I was convinced. Did Li Longji have such good luck? I knew I was ready? Okay, go back to Pengzhou and continue to reinforce General Guotu, his uncle, I deserve his, and the resources don't need to be on him. I can do something else. Now, I haven't made any money I deserve."

Zhang Xiaobao was really helpless at this time. He couldn't blame Li Longji. He was also kind-hearted. If possible, he really wanted to strangle Guo Tu to death and then ask Wang Juan to command the army. At least he could not make such a mentally retarded mistake. Fortunately, Wang Juan was also a talented student, and he didn't know how to defend if he couldn't attack.

Wang Juan was also very depressed. He greeted the people who were still training and rushed back with the team. Li Longji's order came down. He could not stand by death and refused to save him. This is the place to test the logistics.

"Xiaobao, don't be afraid. When we resisted the U.S. aggression and aid Korea, we received the most classic strangulation tactics used by the US Air Force and survived. Are we still afraid of Tubo now?"

Wang Juan comforted Zhang Xiaobao.

Zhang Xiaobao was not a person who knew nothing, and immediately retorted: "What does that have to do with us? When the planes of others were flying everywhere, if it weren't for the Soviet Union's war, so many excellent pilots were sent out and provided aircraft, I really thought that the disconnected cargo-spreading method of air-to-air artillery hidden in the mountains and trains would be useful?"

"What should I do? Tell others that we can't do anything, let them wait for death, right?" Wang Juan asked back.

Zhang Xiaobao took a few deep breaths and said to Wang Juan: "Juanjuan, I have always felt that in my heart, or I hope Guo Tu will defeat the battle and give you a chance. This is why I borrowed Li Xun's 200 people. I am ready for the rest. I hope you can do something at this time to reflect your value. You have never been a vassal in my heart. Let's go and let you see the operational ability of international fraud."

Zhang Xiaobao said, pulled Wang Juan up and turned over the horse, and the two rode together, and led more than 300 people to quickly towards the direction of Pengzhou Prefecture.

After more than an hour, the people in the inner courtyard had prepared all the work as Zhang Xiaobao told him.

Wang Juan looked at Zhang Xiaobao who had prepared something she had hidden from her and couldn't say a word. Everything in front of her was prepared by Zhang Xiaobao to reflect her value. If she didn't need it, she would immediately turn to the dark place. But now she needs it, she doesn't have to worry about equipment. As long as she does the tactics well, everything is OK.

"Xiaobao, these things..."

"These things are prepared for the female general in my heart. Now you are not the special status of the second department, nor are you a Chinese Overlord Flower. You are a general who commands thousands of troops. You have taken out all the tactics you learned before and the tactics you have explored little by little after you get here, so that I can see the art of war that has gathered the wisdom of many generations of people."

At this moment, Zhang Xiaobao felt that it was his most successful time. He prepared everything for Wang Juan and let Wang Juan achieve her own ideals, rather than standing behind him as a well-behaved woman.

Wang Juan kissed Zhang Xiaobao hard on the face, changed into the armor that Zhang Xiaobao prepared for her, waved his spear, and shouted to the more than 300 people who were also shocked: "Go away, reinforce the front line troops and logistics battalions, follow me."

More than 300 people now knew what they were going to do. They also turned over to the back of the prepared horse, picked up their weapons, took the supplies and medical team behind them, followed Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao and rushed out of the pass in a daze of the Pengzhou officials, and headed towards Guo Tu's troops blocked on the mountain in front.
