Entering the forest from the corner in front, Li Quan was originally thinking of watching jokes, because there were several small mechanisms on this mountain road. If the other party didn’t pay attention and fell into the trap, then his future status was, um!

But as I walked, I found something was wrong. This guy named Zhao took his men and felt like he was in a state of no one. Where was his own trap? Where is the card holder? Why is it not working?

I found an excuse to retreat, searched around and finally dragged a few minions out, and asked coldly: "What's going on? Didn't you let you guard the road? Why were you beaten up?"

A man replied with a bruised nose and swollen face: "We don't know either. He was hiding in the dark and suddenly became obscene. Those two guys are so cruel. Look at me being beaten up!"

“Useless waste!”

I only knew what the problem was. Didn’t it be that I let them go to explore the way before? It was nothing surprising to them, so why did they sweep their secret passages all the way? Well, these strong dragons should not be underestimated!

The reason why the strong dragon is strong is that in addition to the other party's whistle, their thunderous muskets were also one aspect. He just took the opportunity to check the horse corpse that was dragged back, and half of the horse's head was shattered. It can be seen that the strength of this kind of firearm is definitely not something you can imagine. Look at the saddle of each war horse, there is a long package. If it is not a thunderous musket, what is it?

Zhao Hu and his friends came to the mountain village and found that this was a gentle land in a canyon. With two streams, they could irrigate hundreds of acres of land. Unfortunately, there was a large wasteland on both sides. Because they could not carry water, they could only grow some grass. If they were all developed, it would be no problem to raise a thousand people!

Time is limited, and when the inspection is completed, it is already dark. Li Quan set up a banquet to invite Zhao Hu and his party. At the same time, he also announced that he would join Zhao Dong's house before the banquet.

This is common among the bandits. If anyone is angry and fights alone, it will probably not be able to continue operating in a long time.

Because most bandits are supported by a rich man, they are just a side job when robbing their families, but their real purpose is a knife of the rich man. Sometimes they want to swallow disobedient opponents. It is common for family massacres, just like How Family, such as Leopard Eye Liu, Wang Lang, etc.!

Seeing that he was sitting there, Zhao Hu knew that Li Quan's team was just a Chu Jian. Apart from him, he didn't even have a second-in-command. Well, that Ma San is a follower!

The food and food were pretty good. Perhaps Li Quan took out a lot of New Year’s goods for the winter for the sake of face. Looking at the bandits below, he knew that they probably had no oil or water in normal times. As for eating large pieces of meat, the cream that was known as gold could only stay in the legend!

Zhao Hu shook his head. These bandits are not very professional. If this continues, food and clothing will be a problem. Li Quan also knew his embarrassment situation and was embarrassed to persuade him to drink, probably trying to turn his attention away.

However, seeing that Zhao Hu and several subordinates did not drink alcohol, and several others including Ma San only drank a few drinks and stopped persuading each other.

After dinner, Zhao Hu left Li Quanmasan, and the deputy captain of the personal guards was accompanied by Zhan Yanzuo. When the two saw this, they knew that the boss had something to discuss. They quickly sat down seriously and listened with all their ears!

Zhao Hu drew a circle around the three counties of Tang, Peiyuan and said: "At present, these three counties are under my jurisdiction!"

"What?"

Li Quan screamed in shock. As far as he knew, except Pei County, the other two counties had just been captured by the Red Coat Army, so why did they become the jurisdiction of Lord Zhao in a blink of an eye?

"Well, you guessed it right. My wife Miaozhen was fighting in front, and I was cleaning up the stall behind!"

Li Quan's face suddenly turned gray. After he got up, he found that there were few people and weak forces. He was about to go to join the beautiful overlord, but he didn't expect that he was the wife of the Grand Official Zhao in front of him!

On the contrary, Ma San's eyes lit up: "So, Zhao, Lord Zhao, are you going to overthrow Dajin?"

Zhao Hu smiled and shook his head and said, "How easy is overturning? Moreover, when his foundation is not solid, he will only make a rash move, so we must take advantage of others. Therefore, we must take one step at a time, build high walls, accumulate grain, and be king slowly!"

A few sitting and murmured to themselves: "Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become king? Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"

At the same time, Li Quan suddenly felt passionate. The person in front of him was surnamed Zhao. If things were successful, then his own people would have the merit of following the dragon! A real man should do this. When he was granted a marquis and a prime minister, why worry about not having a wife?

Several people were excited by Zhao Hu's nine-character mantra, and they were immediately excited as if they were injected with chicken blood. Li Quan was even more ready to rub his hands and clenched his fists and said, "Boss, you can go wherever you ask me to go, and you will never bring a word!"

Zhao Hu smiled and nodded: "Well, our first step at present is to take advantage of the Jin Dynasty's lack of time to take care of itself and take up the places like Hedong Road first!"

With the map he drew, several people probably knew the first goal of the main step, which was the Hedong area, south of Jicheng, north of Pengcheng, and east of Haizhou. The place looked small, but it actually included the eastern part of Shandong area!

Then, Zhao Hu expanded the map southward: "The second step is to the entire Huanghuai region, especially east of the Huai River and north of the Yangtze River. This area of ​​land is vast and there are more wastelands, but as long as it is developed, it will be a large area of ​​grain production land!"

Li Quan was a little confused. To the east of Yangzhou, there was a large area of ​​reed wasteland and a salt boiling area along the coast. Could it be that the main owner was crazy? He didn't take over the Jiangnan area, but he wanted to get along with this large wasteland?

Perhaps seeing their doubts, Zhao Hu explained: "Although there are many wastelands in these areas, in fact, near the Huaihe area, the land has long since been retired from saline and alkali. Look, many places have begun to grow rice in the south of the Haizhou. At that time, as long as we put people here, we can develop more than one place! The most important point is that this area has not taken many people to heart, and it has completely given us time to develop. At that time, as long as this area produces enough salt, phosphate fertilizer and grain, it will be enough for the food and grass under my control!"

However, Zhao Hu then sighed and said, "It's a pity that we still don't have enough manpower and energy. If we can stop managing the Huaihe River into the sea, this large area will become a land of fish and rice!"

Several people were also shocked by Zhao Hu's work. Since ancient times, the Yellow River has often seized the Huai River and entered the sea. It can be said that there is no decent water outlet from east to Hongze. Therefore, once a flood occurs, there will be a lot of sorrow along the way! How much does it cost to really manage the Huai River?

After talking about this ideal goal, Zhao Hu assigned a task to the two of them: "You two follow me to the east first and learn some knowledge by the way. As for the troops, they will be temporarily handed over to Zhan Yan for training. At the same time, some new weapons will be sent by Hengyuan Trading Bank and the elderly and children in the village will be taken over to be placed."

"Yuanyang Mountain will come to build a solid line of defense, blocking the Jin Dynasty's eastward route. So, three months later, before thawing, you must be prepared to take down this area east of the Haizhou for me. Similarly, you will only aim to break through, try to kill as little as possible, and only kill the evil people. In the future, whether it is mine or salt fields, you will need a lot of labor!"
