Seeing that the young master was persuaded, Geng Da was very happy and said:
"It's okay. I'll go talk to Huang Dayong and Huang Dazhi later and ask Mr. Huang whether he has ever taken a wife or concubine."
The Geng family has more daughters than sons, seven in total. The eldest wife gave birth to two legitimate sons, Geng Zhanghua and Geng Zhangguang, and a legitimate daughter, Geng Yueru.
The eldest daughter, Geng Yuequan, has been married for more than ten years and is married to a scholarly family. Anyway, except for the fifteen-year-old sixth lady Geng Yueru and the thirteen-year-old seventh lady Geng Yueling, the other five are all married. Scholar-bureaucrat family.
Geng Da, who is well versed in worldly affairs, realized through this misfortune that Wu Yi was a scholar, and it was not a big deal for the whole Geng family, including all his in-laws, to write and write.
Thinking that the Geng family would also have military men to lead troops, he supported Geng Zhanghua in seeking a military position.
However, considering that it is difficult to fight alone, he fell in love with Huang Yi, who was wise and good at leading troops.
So I thought of marriage, the oldest way of attracting people.
Geng Yueru was his legitimate daughter and was favored by the old lady. He did not dare to be presumptuous, so he thought of Geng Yueling, who basically had no sense of presence in the Geng family.
Now that the young master has this idea, whether good things can be accomplished depends on whether Master Huang has this good fortune. Geng Da is simply impatient and wants to find someone to find out immediately.
I turned around and happened to see Huang Daquan running in the crowd.
Geng Da ran over and said bluntly: "Brother Daquan, please run slowly. I want to ask you something?"
"Ask!"
"Does your master have a wife?"
"without!"
"Do you have a concubine?"
"No! There's a war going on! You told me to stop and that's why I asked you this?" Huang Daquan said, unhappy.
"Hahaha... This is very important. It affects whether your master can become a general!"
"I don't understand! I only know that the master is a great hero who is upright and upright, not lewd and not greedy for money!"
"Hahaha..., that would be even better! Brother Daquan, don't chase us. The armor we are wearing is too heavy and we can't run fast."
"Yes, I have to go horseback riding quickly and bring the master's horse by the way!"
"What a great idea, I'll go with you! Why doesn't your master have a woman by his side? Who usually takes care of him?"
"What happened to you today? Just ask nonsense!"
"I just want to find out more about it so that I can help your master arrange a good marriage!"
"So that's what it is! Then ask."
"Does your master have a smell? A very pungent one?"
"I am a Han Chinese, not a Tatar, so of course I don't smell like a Tatar."
"What does your master usually do?"
"Teach us how to read and write, practice riding and shooting, and guide blacksmiths to make weapons..."
…
Later, the remnants of the Jin army ran away without causing much damage and left most of the loot behind.
The brothers Huang Dayong, Huang Dazhi, and Hu Xiaochuan, who thought they were going to experience a fierce battle, realized something was wrong after fighting for a while.
Because they found that there were no real slaves to fight with, only some traitors being beaten by the Han people.
Everyone knows the number of slaves, but why can't they be found just now? Could it be that the enemy has a conspiracy?
When Yang Shihu saw Huang Dazhi, Huang Dayong, and Hu Xiaochuan discussing, he suddenly laughed and said:
"This is in line with common sense! It's not a big deal to create slaves. In fact, they are all afraid of death. When they saw that there were so many of us, they ran away! There is a fucking conspiracy!"
Liu Chuanzong said: "No, they just ran away, and they will be beheaded when they return!"
"They don't have to go back and hide in the mountains and forests to make a living by fishing and hunting. This is better than losing their lives in vain!"
Huang Dazhi, who has been a slave for many years, has seen Jian slaves killing Ming soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables. He shook his head and said: "I always feel that it shouldn't be like this! Jian slaves shouldn't be so unbeatable!"
And Yang Shihu was used to the Ming army falling apart at the slightest setback. He used himself to save others and argued: "If you don't do this, how can you do that? You will definitely not be able to defeat them. If you don't escape, why stay and wait for death?"
At this time, Liu Chuanzong saw Huang Yi and Geng Zhanghua walking over with crossbows in their hands, and immediately asked:
"Sir Huang, dozens of Jian slaves have run east. Should we mount our horses and pursue them?"
If you want to develop greatly, you must consider everything and make use of all power, especially the power of the Ming Dynasty!
Geng Zhanghua seems to be more important, and he must not be allowed to die in the melee.
Therefore, Huang Yi searched specifically to keep him out of his sight as much as possible.
Geng Zhanghua was also willing to fight with Huang Yi. After he stopped pursuing, he also started looking for Huang Yi. After a while, the two met.
Geng Zhanghua's joy was beyond words. After seeing Huang Yi again, he couldn't help but look left and right, as if he were meeting him for the first time.
Huang Yi was also in a very good mood, but he didn't realize that Geng Zhanghua was a little strange. He thought that the young master was so happy that he forgot about his form.
Of course, Huang Yi found that dozens of Jiannu had withdrawn, but he did not want to pursue them, so he replied to Liu Chuanzong:
"The enemy didn't run away, they just retreated temporarily. There is no need to chase. I believe they will take the initiative to cause trouble for us after daybreak!"
Geng Zhanghua said: "Your analysis makes sense! Jiannu suffered a loss at night, and he might come back after dawn to retaliate! We must prepare in advance!"
Huang Yi said: "Light more bonfires and count the number of people. Zhang Dong, you take Liu Han and the others to be responsible for screening, find and behead the coated slaves who are working as collaborators!"
"As you command!"
"Huang Dazhi, you should organize at least three patrol teams to conduct patrols in shifts. You should also organize all the rescued Han people into groups of ten and fifty people, and appoint team leaders and captains."
"yes!"
"Huxiaochuan, Huxiaogu, and Huang Dashuang, each of you will lead five people to monitor the direction in which the Hou Jin army fled. It is best to track them!
But remember, retreat to camp as soon as daybreak! "
"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"
Huang Yi's insight is unparalleled in this era, and grid management has been proven to be the most effective by later generations.
So he immediately broke it down.
Liu Han, Chang Yongshan, Kang Jing, Xiang Changgen and other dozens of Han people who joined yesterday were appointed as captains, deputy captains, and team leaders respectively, and were managed in slices and rosters were established.
After about a quarter of an hour, the noisy camp became disciplined. Every young and middle-aged Han man knew that if something happened, he should go to the team leader. If the team leader acted unfairly, he should go to the deputy captain or captain.
After one or two thousand people became organized and disciplined, a powerful labor force emerged.
The work of counting the seizures, harvesting the heads, stripping off the armor from the corpses of the slaves, searching for the waistbands of the slaves, etc. was done in an orderly manner.
Zhang Dong was most concerned about Huang Yi's crossbow recovery. He had summoned the captain and deputy captain and showed them one, asking them to immediately inform the team leader and everyone.
In fact, it just became natural for him.
Since Qi Dashan and other blacksmiths have refined iron, replenishing crossbow arrows is no longer a problem. It doesn't hurt to lose a few or a dozen. Huang Yi is reluctant to use original products anyway, they are all imitations.
