Chapter 33

In the fifth year of Zhongping, the last ten days of the first month.

The cold winter weather has gradually passed. Although spring has not yet officially entered, the weather has begun to warm up, and everything has begun to rejuvenate. The withered grass has begun to bloom in spring.

Wuyin County.

Jingping Village on the outskirts of the city.

The houses in the village have already started to be completed, and the construction is very fast. In less than two months, hundreds of houses have been built. He was willing to spend money. In order to cultivate this village, at least more than 200 gold was spent, which is more than 200 million five baht. This is a huge sum of money.

This is a new village. The length of the village is not very long, but it is backed by Jingping Mountain (this was originally an unnamed mountain, but when the village was named Jingping Village, this mountain was naturally called Jingping Mountain), There is also a small river about five feet wide on the left side. The terrain is not too flat, with faint steep slopes. The houses are dominated by the Zhonglie Hall in the center, forming a Hui character shape, just like a fortress.

When it was built, an uneven situation was taken into consideration, so they used stones taken from the mountains to build their surroundings. Once soldiers and horses were deployed for defense, all men, women, old and children in the village would go into battle, even if more than a thousand elite soldiers Horses can't attack either.

This is the base camp of the remnants of the Yellow Turbans who came down Mushroom Mountain.

The most important point is that the surrounding land has been granted to Jingping Village by the county government. Even if Jingping Village closes its doors, it can be completely self-sufficient.

When the day finally settled down, the elderly, women and children in the village were overjoyed, and they were all preparing for spring plowing after the beginning of spring...

Except for Zhang Gu who became the Lizheng (village head) of Jingping Village, Zhao Ping, Cheng Luo, and Lei Gong all followed Mushan into the county government and commanded more than 1000 county soldiers under their command. After all, these more than 1000 soldiers and horses are the foundation of their foothold. Without these, how many people would turn against them.

While Mu Jing is taking the time to practice martial arts these days, he is also practicing his horse riding and bow and arrow.

In this era, cavalry is the most powerful arm.

The bow and arrow are the most lethal weapons.

Riding a horse seems simple, but it is not so easy. In addition, in this era, there is no so-called saddle and stirrup, which cannot fix the body, and it will fall off the horse's back if it is shaken.

He has suffered a lot.

"Young master, how do you feel today?" Lei Hu took the reins of the horse, and let the somewhat docile green horse walk on the path with Mu Jing crouching down.

"Xiaoqing doesn't seem to accept me very much!"

Mu Jing smiled wryly, and silently lowered the head of the war horse. Xiaoqing is the name of this horse. This is a war horse, but it is too old, so it was eliminated, so its personality is relatively docile, suitable for novices, he sighed With a sound, he said: "It seems that I still need to cultivate more feelings with him!"

Riding a horse is a technical job.

Between his thighs, layers of skin have been worn away. He wanted to give up several times, but in the end he gritted his teeth and persisted. Now you can barely ride a horse, but if you want to ride a horse to fight you, he still can't. not far off.

"Young master, why don't you talk to my father and let me join the county army with him?" Lei Hu has been talking about this for the past few days.

"Brother Huzi, why do you have to be a county soldier?"

Mu Jing walked slowly on the horseback under the reins led by Lei Hu, and asked with a sigh.

This problem is not just Thunder Tiger's problem.

It's a problem with Jingping Village as a whole.

There is a world in the village. Many old people, women and children want men to farm to get food, but the young and strong can only serve as soldiers. After all, the county soldiers are the foundation of their foothold. Without county soldiers, the stability here will be wiped out soon. .

Then the work in the fields is naturally handed over to the youth group. You must know that the remnants of the Yellow Turbans on the Mushroom Mountain have a group of reserve troops besides the young and strong who are in their early three hundred and can fight well, that is, those who are about ten to 15 years old. young man.

During the battle of Wuyin that day, this group of teenagers followed Mu Jing into the Zhu family's mansion and slaughtered the Zhu family. They had been on the battlefield and seen blood. Their hearts were already wild and they couldn't take it back.

"Young master, I don't want to work here. I'm a man. I want to go to the battlefield. I want to make contributions to the master and the young master with a knife in my hand and a horse!" Lei Hu has great ambitions and his voice is burning.

"But you're only 15 years old!"

"I know, but even among the county soldiers, my martial arts can be regarded as first-class!" Lei Hu said: "How many of the county soldiers can beat me? How can they enter the county?" Bing, I can't!"

"Brother Huzi, do you know what is the most important thing besides martial arts?"

"riding?"

Lei Hu thought for a while with his huge head, and said: "My riding skills are not bad, even if I can't compare with Dadangjia and my father, I'm still one of the best in the village!"

This guy is very talented, with outstanding martial arts and riding skills.

"wrong!"

Mu Jing said decisively: "It's the art of war!"

He said righteously: "On the battlefield, if you can only charge forward, but not deploy to lure the enemy, then you are just a common man. Do you want to go to the battlefield one day and become a common man shouted by everyone?"

"This..." Lei Hu hesitated for a moment.

"So from today onwards, you have to study military books. Only those who have studied military books have the art of strategy in mind, and can strategize on the battlefield..."

Mu Jing originally just wanted Lei Hu to settle down, but as he spoke, a thought suddenly came to his mind.

How about building a military academy?
He knows better than anyone else what kind of chaos will follow. The world is full of wars and frequent wars. The only way to stop wars is to stop wars with wars. If you want to stop wars with wars, you must have a strong army. To have a strong army, there must be a group of elite officers.

Right now there are a number of good seedlings.

The youths who followed the extermination of the Zhu family were the best seedlings. If this group of seedlings can be cultivated, it will be easy to build an army in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

"Less master!"

At this time, in the direction of the village, Tan Zong rode a little donkey, came from a distance, and some people were out of breath.

"It seems that what I want to investigate has some clues!"

Mujing took a look, interrupted his contemplation, jumped off the horse, put a smile on his face, and comforted Leihu: "Brother Huzi, I won't let you go to work in the fields, I will take care of this matter Talk to your father and uncle, and you should take care of yourself first, and tell the teenagers in the village to settle down for me!"

"Great!"

Lei Hu immediately cheered up.

"Young Master, these are the household registration information you want. I begged Uncle Cheng Luo for a long time before he let me be taken out of the county government office, but he ordered me to move back to the county government office within three days!"

Tan Zong handed over a roll of bamboo slips in his hand.

"Go to the Hall of Loyalty!"

Mujing led the horse and walked in front.

"No!" Tan Zong and Lei Hu nodded and followed behind.

The Zhonglie Hall is the core of Jingping Village. There are many houses in it, and there is also a small school yard. There are some stone mortars, swords, guns, swords and sticks arranged on the school yard for martial arts training. In the middle is the lobby, which is also a meeting hall. .

The West Courtyard is a warehouse in Jingping Village, where food and weapons are piled up, and the East Courtyard is where Mu Shan and the others work, but Mu Shan seldom comes back, only Zhang Gu sits here, and Mu Jing also occupies a side room for bookstore.

This bookstore is very large. It can be said that it is the largest wing room in the entire Zhonglie Hall except for the middle lobby. It's basically all here.

In the past, Mushroom Mountain only collected a dozen or twenty books. Even if he wanted to study, he didn't have many books at all, but now Jingping Village has a lot of books.

When copying the Zhu family back then, they took advantage of the sheep and brought out all the books inherited from the Zhu family, a noble family. The foundation of the inheritance of a noble family is books. There is no movable type printing these days, and books are very precious.

There are more than 4000 Zhu's books, which are already very rich in this era. There are books on bamboo slips, books on cloth, and paper books.

Before walking to the table, Mu Jing sat down.

He was sitting in the Taishi chair.

He is really not familiar with the etiquette of kneeling and sitting in the Han Dynasty. This reminds him of a very annoying nation. Inside, several carpenters made a tall table and some grand master chairs, and put them in the book pavilion.

"Young master, all the household registrations you want are already here!" Tan Zong put the volumes of household registration files on the case table.

"There are quite a few!"

Mujing flipped through it lightly.

The household registration he checked was the household registration of merchants in Wuyin County.
