Chapter 93 Craftsmen and Scholars

Qing Cang went downstairs and saw that the door was full of people, but they were very quiet and disciplined. Before he could speak, someone immediately started to scream. "Look, Lord Qing is coming out!"

At this moment, everyone surrounded him and he saw a trace of admiration in their eyes.

But how could they be close to Qing Cang? The three battalion commanders had long used their bodies to block them two meters away. What a joke? Qing Cang is the highest leader here. If something happens, these dragons have no leader, and with their strength, they will not be able to lead this legion well.

Qing Cang signaled the three of them to relax. He didn't understand what these people were doing, so he asked, "Friends, what are you doing?"

At this moment, a young man immediately left the line and said, "We are here to defect to you today."

Qing Cang was even more puzzled, and he replied, "Oh? Resign. If you join the army, just look for Captain Cao directly, and he will arrange for you to join the army."

The man said, "No! Lord Qing. We are here to surrender. The people behind me are all skilled craftsmen from nearby counties. I heard that the master's reputation came to surrender. I hope I can do something for the adults."

Just like the ancient disciples, they used their skills to serve their masters. It was different from joining the army, and they were not here to fight. When Qing Cang heard that these people were craftsmen, he immediately became energetic.

"May I have your name?"

The man said, "My name is Yang Zizong, I am from Ren County and I am a carpenter. The people behind me are my relatives and friends, and they are also craftsmen."

As soon as Yang Zizong finished speaking, someone would scream.

"Mr. Qing, we are here to repay our kindness. Thanks to you, my sister was saved. After she returned, she kept convinced me that all the Chinese army were talents, so we all came today."

"Yes, my sister has been missing for nearly a year, and it's up to you to come back!"

"And my mother was kidnapped as a cook by a bandit and suffered all the humiliation. Thanks to Lord Qing, we mother and son were able to reunite. So without an adult, I'm afraid I will never see my mother again in this life."

Yang Zizong continued: "We just want to make some contributions to the Chinese Legion with our skills."

Everyone was talking and talking, Qing Cang remembered that these people were the relatives or friends of more than a hundred women who had saved that day. Maybe they decided to come after they went back. This is what is called the people's hearts.

Through their words, most of these people were carpenters, because the things they carried were like ink buckets, saws, curved rulers, etc., which showed that they had made up their minds this time. No wonder the guards said they were holding some strange things in their hands.

Qing Cang thought to himself that when he was sleepy, someone would give him a pillow. If he took these carpenters, the next siege weapons would be settled. Yes, he asked Wang Zongwei to come over to study the manufacturing of siege weapons. These craftsmen came in time, and they were all skilled craftsmen, greatly improving the manufacturing technology level. After all, there were still limited craftsmen in a county. Suddenly, there were so many people coming, and the so-called people were more powerful and the brainstorming was nothing more than that.

And at this time, Wang Zongwei happened to come over.

"Commander, come to me!"

"Battleman Wang, you can take these people into your post first, and then the office will come to me and I have something to say to you."

"yes!"

"You all follow this adult, and he will arrange yours."

Yang Zizong took the lead and said, "Thank you sir!"

Just as Qing Cang was about to leave, a loud voice sounded in the crowd. "Sir, where are we?"

A small number of people appeared in the crowd, and in comparison, they were much weaker. "Oh? Aren't you with Yang Zizong?"

The man squeezed out of the crowd. He was a little weak, and he was more than one number smaller than these craftsmen. He said: "We are different from them. We are scholars nearby. These people are all very literary and extraordinary. However, because the eunuch party was in power and sold titles and officials, we were hopeless to be recommended. We were discouraged by the Han court. There were more than 20 people coming to this trip, and they also wanted to use it for adults."

During the Han Dynasty, it was not like the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties that passed the exam to achieve fame and fortune. More people chose to be recommended. Now the way of recommendation is completely unsuccessful because the quota is taken away by rich people. These people's books are in vain, and they have no power to tie up a chicken, but they have only ambitions, but they cannot display them. So they came here, requesting to surrender and give advice.

Qing Cang thought to himself, this is not right, Wu Chaojing also lacks manpower, and this young man in charge looks quite pleasant. "What's your name?"

The young man said: "Sir, the scholar's name is Xu Xun."

Qing Cang looked at this young man of similar age as himself, and then pointed to Wu Chaojing behind him and said, "Xu Xun, very good. You can take your friends to follow him. Just call him Staff Officer Wu, and he will arrange for you to be included in the editor."

Wu Chaojing quickly responded.

His answer was so straightforward that everyone present felt incredible. As for whether these people have real talents and knowledge, Wu Chaojing would naturally make arrangements. If he didn't arrange to copy books, it would be fine.

People's faces were filled with excitement, and everyone was extremely excited.

Someone said, "That's great! Thank you sir!"

"We have traveled all the major governments, but no one dared to accept them. Today, I agreed directly when I saw the adults."

Obviously, these people have made a lot of efforts toward their ambitions, but during the war, warriors are more popular than literati. These people cannot do heavy work or fight, and accepting them is equivalent to eating vain. Some places are difficult to protect themselves, so how can they still be managed? It is reasonable to be rejected.

"Everyone must do good things for the adults."

Xu Xun quickly bowed. "Xu Xun, thank you on behalf of everyone!"

As soon as Xu Xun finished speaking, a horn sounded from a distance. Qing Cang listened carefully, blew three breaths and stopped for three breaths, and then wolf smoke came out from the south.

Qing Cang understood that this horn represents an enemy of less than a thousand people coming from the south.

The sound of the horn scared these people, and they had never encountered such a situation before.

They were a little scared.

"What's going on?"

"Is there another war?"

"We fight every year and every day. Fortunately, we are here and there are adults who can protect us."

In fact, most of these people are here to seek protection. If they don’t come, they will be recruited to join the army over time.

He quickly comforted these people. "Everyone, it's okay, you can go in with Battalion Commander Wang!"

Then he said: "Three battalion commanders, let's go and see together! People come and prepare horses!"

Qing Cang and the three battalion commanders, with two thousand soldiers, quickly heading south.
