Standing on the high slope, watching the cavalry running towards Dongping Mansion from a distance, Yun Chao's tears almost flowed down his face.
With so many war horses and cavalry equipment, it would be so fun if they all belonged to me!
Li Xing made a gesture of wiping his neck: "Brother Chao, do you want to..."
Yun Chao shook his head: "It's better not to move them for now. These guys are all riding horses and they are in an open area. It's not easy to deal with. Let's follow our original plan."
"yes!"
…
Inspector Dong left.
Although Magistrate Sun repeatedly urged him to lead troops to rescue the remnants of Qingyang Camp who were surrounded by Nanhu water bandits, he ultimately refused.
Even though Magistrate Sun warned that he would be severely prosecuted if he refused to save him, resulting in the annihilation of the entire Qingyang camp, Supervisor Dong remained unmoved.
If the Qingyang camp is destroyed, just destroy it, just let his cousin Dong Chuan reorganize it, so that it can be better controlled.
The backbone of the rebuilt Qingyang Camp were all Dongping troops, and the remaining soldiers were recruited again.
These days, there are so many people who don't have enough to eat. As long as they take care of the food, even if they don't receive military pay, there are still a lot of people who are willing to serve as soldiers to feed themselves.
In order to take control of Qingyang Camp as soon as possible, in addition to Dong Chuan's own fifty men, Supervisor Dong also left fifty personal soldiers for him.
Recruit another two to three hundred new soldiers, and the Qingyang Camp will be ready.
The remaining quota is reserved for Dong Chuan to earn his salary.
In order to keep Qingyang Camp firmly in his hands, Inspector Dong spent a lot of money.
Hua Yinzi bribed Huang Tongpan and asked for the Qingyang Camp commander he had prepared for Yun Chao. He also prepared to equip Dong Chuan with a full set of armor weapons and some war horses.
Troubled times have emerged, and people like Supervisor Dong and others who are relatively well-informed have already smelled the coming storm. Many people are secretly accumulating strength. If the situation changes in the future, they must at least be able to protect themselves.
The day after Inspector Dong left.
Dong Chuan began to put up a recruiting sign in Qingyang Camp.
Notices were posted in the county seat, as well as in the various towns and villages below.
With two full meals a day and a few liters of grain given out during holidays, those who signed up almost crossed the threshold of Qingyang Camp.
Well, there is no threshold for the military camp, that's what it means. The number of people who signed up far exceeded Dong Chuan's expectations.
What makes Dong Chuan even more happy is that many of the guys who signed up are in good physical condition. Not only are they strong in body, but they are also energetic and alert. They are definitely military material!
If people are in good health, it means their families are wealthy.
A place with so many wealthy families must be a good place. I will definitely be able to reap a lot of benefits in Qingyang County in the future!
There is a good source of soldiers, how could Dong Chuan not want them? The family affairs of these people are very clean, they are all natives of Qingyang County, and they are all honest farmers!
In less than three days, the recruitment work for Qingyang Camp was completed.
While organizing the drills for the new recruits, Dong Chuan reported to his cousin in Dongping Mansion and asked him to send the ordnance over quickly.
Equipping Qingyang Camp with armor and weapons is actually a matter for Qingyang County, and the military supervisor of Dongping Prefecture does not have that power.
However, when he came to Qingyang County before, Inspector Dong had already sent money to County Magistrate Sun and got an application written by Magistrate Sun himself.
After returning to Dongping Mansion, Inspector Dong spent a lot of money to finally feed the prefect and the money-grubbing old fox Huang Tongpian, and approved some military supplies.
I also spent my own money to purchase a batch of ordnance, and finally equipped the Qingyang Camp with all the equipment.
Seven days later.
Supervisor Dong sent one of his subordinates, a commander named Cao, with three hundred Dongping troops and hundreds of carts to deliver all the ordnance and supplies to Qingyang Camp.
Dong Chuan was so excited that he almost jumped up.
My cousin with nostrils that reached the top of his head was really good at his job. He brought people to kill Yun Er before and lost so many people. Not only did he not blame himself, but he also pushed himself to be the commander of Qingyang Camp.
It seems that I will treat him better in the future. When I get on top of him in the future, I will leave a mouthful of soup for him when eating meat.
That night, Commander Dong Chuan killed chickens and sheep, and held a banquet to entertain Commander Cao and the Dongping Army who were transporting ordnance supplies.
By the way, I also rewarded the soldiers of Qingyang Camp, which not only won people's hearts, but also showed my generosity and benevolence.
Drinking the good wine bought from Lion House, Dong Chuan was so excited that his head went up.
Including Commander Cao, all the officers of the Dongping Army gave a thumbs up.
"Brother Dong, this wine is powerful and interesting! If there is anything in the future, as long as my brother can help, just ask, if your brother Cao frowns, he will give birth to a child without a brain!"
Not only the wine drunk by officers, but also the wine drunk by soldiers has strength.
We have never had such a strong drink before, and it didn’t take long for the wine to get strong!
Whether they were officers or soldiers, almost all of them were drunk.
One by one, they were staggering around and acting wildly. If Dong Chuan hadn't still had some sense and knew that he had just arrived and didn't want to overdo it, he would have sent people to the homes of nearby people to capture women!
…
A night of silence.
It wasn't until daybreak the next day that Qingyang Camp came back to life after partying for half the night.
Dong Chuan was dreaming of commanding thousands of troops when he suddenly heard someone calling him anxiously.
Commander Dong was very angry.
The feeling of hangover from last night hadn't passed yet, and I felt so angry when I got up.
"Asshole, what are you shouting for? A mourning cry?"
"Sir...sir, my lord is not good..."
Dong Chuan was so angry that he almost drew his sword and killed someone.
I have just taken office, but you motherfucker is calling me "I'm not good, my lord, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine!"
However, when he heard the next sentence, he felt really bad.
"Sir, go and have a look quickly, everything in the warehouse is gone!"
"What?"
Dong Chuan didn't even wear pants and jumped up with his bare buttocks: "What did you say? What's missing?"
"The warehouse...the warehouse is empty, and everything in it is gone!"
The soldier who reported the news was crying and did not dare to look into Dong Chuan's eyes, for fear of becoming Commander Dong's punching bag.
"Ahhhh..."
Dong Chuan kicked the soldier who reported the news into a rolling gourd.
"You bastard, you dare to lie about the military situation, do you believe that I will kill you?"
Although he said so, Dong Chuan actually basically believed it, but he just didn't want to accept the reality.
"Come on, take me to see where the thief came from and dared to steal on my commander's head!"
However, before Dong Chuan could put on his clothes, Commander Cao, who was escorting military supplies, broke in angrily.
"You surnamed Dong, you bastard, I worked so hard to deliver things to you, but your mother is so indifferent that you even took away my war horses. What do you want to do? Send them back to me as soon as possible!"
Dong Chuan: "?!?!?!"
