After Scar said this, several heads of family nodded together.
Xie Yu also understood what these leaders meant.
He has seen the terrain of Baishi Village.
Baishizhai is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and there is only one way in and out of the front.
There is no need to consider defense issues on the cliff side, and on the front road, even if there are trees, they will not affect the cottage.
Because those trees are still dozens of feet away from the main entrance of the village.
Even if those trees are burned, they will not be able to burn the gate.
The most important thing is: if the other party is really going to set a fire, then the other party doesn't have to think about attacking until the fire is extinguished.
Xie Yu explained with a smile: "Those trees will not provide any protection to our house. They will also become a shield for the enemy. Cutting down all the trees will give us a clear view. This will basically eliminate the enemy. Thoughts of a sneak attack.”
"And collecting the wood up the mountain will be of great use in the future. Making rolling logs will give the enemy a headache for a while."
Scar nodded: "I understand, I'll arrange someone right away."
"Fourth Leader, please bring money and a few smart people to the county. I need you to help me purchase a batch of things. I will give you the list later. And... you can go to the county to inquire. , are there any carpenters, blacksmiths, etc. who are skilled in craftsmanship?”
"Let's go back and invite these people up the mountain together."
"Invite carpenters and blacksmiths?" Chen Zhong was a little confused, "Why do you invite them here? Besides, what should I do if they don't want to come?"
Xie Yu looked at the Fourth Master with some disdain: "When you took me up the mountain, was I willing?"
Chen Zhong slapped his mouth: Damn it, after listening to Mr. Xie talking for so long, I really think of myself as a scholar. I almost forgot that I was a bandit.
"Mr. Xie, what should I do?"
Seeing that everyone else was busy with things, Wang Yi was naturally unwilling to be left behind.
Xie Yu smiled and said: "The third leader..."
"Stop being the third in charge, call me third brother or sworn brother!"
Wang Yi interrupted Xie Yu.
Xie Yu nodded at Wang Yi and Chen Zhong: "Third brother! Fourth brother!"
The two of them suddenly smiled.
Xie Yu continued: "Third brother, I have to find some people later to work with me to repair our stockade. Our stockade needs to be renovated!"
"OK, no problem!"
After arranging things for everyone, Xie Yu said to Bai Xiaonan: "Master, do you have a pen and paper? Lend it to me."
Bai Xiaonan understood that Xie Yu had something to talk to him alone.
So she nodded and said, "I have it in my house."
…
Entering Bai Xiaonan's boudoir, Xie Yu said: "How many people in this village can you really trust? Make me a list!"
After Bai Xiaonan finished making the list and looked at the names on it, Xie Yu laughed: "It's not bad, there are still more than thirty people. I thought you had reached the point where you have betrayed all your relatives."
After putting away the list, Xie Yu said to Bai Xiaonan: "Assign a trustworthy subordinate, give him some money, and ask him to go to the county to find a restaurant clerk to work first."
"Being a buddy?" Bai Xiaonan didn't understand, "What are you doing?"
"Inquiry for information!" Xie Yu explained, "Don't wait for someone to call you at your door before you know what others are doing. So this matter must be done by your closest friends. This is the top priority."
Not to mention ancient times, even in modern battlefields, intelligence is the most important.
A key piece of information can often change the course of a war.
Cyber warfare, information warfare, electronic warfare, etc. in modern warfare are all wars centered around the competition for intelligence. They may not seem intense, but their victory or defeat may affect the lives and deaths of tens of thousands or even millions of people. !
Next, Xie Yu will start making a plan.
But before he could make a plan, he had to get the tools he needed first.
He asked Bai Xiaonan to get dozens of long goose feathers for him, and Xie Yu heat-treated these goose feathers.
Finally, the simplest quill pen was made.
After all, Xie Yu is a modern person, and he is not used to using a writing brush.
When the quill was ready, Xie Yu gave it a try. Although it is not as good as a fountain pen, it is still usable.
Making a plan is too easy for Xie Yu.
Looking at Xie Yu writing furiously, Bai Xiaonan also had an indescribable feeling.
This man... his whole body was full of charming flavor at this time.
Especially when Bai Xiaonan stood behind Xie Yu and looked at Xie Yu's handwriting on the paper, he was even more shocked.
This handwriting...iron painted with silver hook, so powerful!
He can write such beautiful calligraphy using goose feathers that are inconvenient for writing. So how beautiful will his handwriting be if he uses a normal brush?
Bai Xiaonan looked at it with a look of obsession in his eyes.
"alright!"
Xie Yu blew away the ink stains on the paper.
He wrote a dozen pieces of paper.
Finally, after sorting out the written content, Xie Yu handed it to Bai Xiaonan.
"This share is for you. This share is for the fourth master, and this share is for the sixth son!"
Bai Xiaonan glanced at the content above, and she was even more shocked.
The content written inside is really too detailed. And it's so organized that even a fool knows how to take every step with this plan.
"Are you...really the young master from the Xie family?"
Bai Xiaonan wondered if he had kidnapped the wrong person.
"Replace it if it's fake!"
Xie Yu smiled, and then said: "Time is tight and the task is heavy. Let's follow the arrangements written above first. As for the other things... I will explain it to you slowly when I have the opportunity in the future!"
Bai Xiaonan nodded. Before leaving the room, she suddenly stopped, then turned to look at Xie Yu and said: "You... don't call me the boss again. It sounds awkward from you!"
"Then what should I call you? Madam?" Xie Yu asked with a smile.
Bai Xiaonan blushed and finally whispered: "Okay!"
Seeing Bai Xiaonan "running away", Xie Yu couldn't help but laugh.
This bandit leader actually has such a cute side!
…
There are a total of 247 people in Baishi Village.
Among them, there are seventy-three people under the second master.
But now these people have all been subdued and reorganized into several other leading teams.
Moreover, these seventy-three people have been listed as key observation objects.
According to Xie Yu's instructions, if there is anything wrong, he will be killed directly!
At this time, all the more than 200 people in Baishi Village were mobilized.
Chen Zhong led a group of people down the mountain to do business in the county.
Xie Yu’s shopping lists were of various types. Even Chen Zhong didn't know the use of many of them.
In order to gather these things, Chen Zhong and others spent a lot of time.
But money is easy to do. Chen Zhong went down the mountain this time and took away half of the money he robbed from Xie's family last time!
So no matter how difficult it is to find, as long as you have enough money, there is nothing you can't buy.
Within three days, Chen Zhong had purchased everything.
But the carpenter and blacksmith Xie Yu wanted was hard to find.
In order to "bring" these people out of the city smoothly, Chen Zhong and others waited for five more days.
Eight days later, Chen Zhong finally returned to Baishi Village with his brothers.
As soon as they entered the village, Chen Zhong and others were stunned.
Is this still the Baishi Village they know?
