Chapter 294: Things under the black cloth
Before the five people in Shayang discussed a specific solution, the commander's mansion took action first. Heroes of big red invitations were delivered to them one by Qin Feng's personal bodyguard Ma Hou.
Although they knew that the invitation from the commander's mansion must be bad intentions and that the intention was to clear the fields, the heads of the five families still had to attend the banquet. Of course, they also made up their minds that if this young guy who had just become the Lord of Shayang wanted to take the lead, they would not hesitate to fight head-on, and in the end, they would still have to rely on their strength to speak.
At least now, they feel that the strength of the Shayang system is far greater than that of the Taiping Army.
This General Li Feng and General Li were the leader chosen by Mr. Liu for them, but they were not their master. Even when Mr. Liu was alive, he had a lot of things when he encountered major events. As for the situation where Mr. Liu finally formed a situation where Mr. Liu had never missed it in the past few decades.
But even though the young General Li won this battle that concerns Shayang's survival, it was just force on the battlefield. In other aspects, this general has not convinced them yet.
With the confrontational intention, they walked into the former Hao House and the current commander's mansion in a complicated mood.
All familiar scenes have changed. The gentle hometown of the Hao family now seems solemn everywhere, with a breath of golden swords and iron horses. As soon as you enter the gate, all the original luxurious decorations were flattened, and a thick layer of sand was laid on the ground. Hundreds and half-large dolls were waving the wooden knife in their hands. Although they were small, the formation was kept extremely neatly. Practicing in the shouts of a ferocious man with a black cloth covering one eye. Every time a knife was used, the sound of childish killing echoed in the commander's mansion.
Looking at the surprised gazes of the few people, Ma Hou smiled and said, "These are some orphans adopted by our general over the past six months. Their parents died and they were helpless. The general saw that they were pitiful and adopted them."
"Does such a young child need to undergo such military training?" Tian Ke asked.
"What's this?" Ma Hou smiled and said, "In our Taiping City, children of the right age must undergo the same military training. Of course, it is not only military training, but also studying. Taiping City pays for the expenses. The general said that after the basic training, a group of excellent qualifications must be selected from them to teach martial arts. So, these little guys have the money to do it."
Liu Xingwen raised his eyebrows, but he didn't argue about this. Even if it was an investment, these dolls would have to wait until at least five or six years or even ten years later.
"Where is General Li?"
"The general is waiting for you in the hall!" Mahou said with a smile. "Please everyone."
The few people had just started, but there were neat sounds of horns from the side. When they turned their heads, they couldn't help but see in horror that a dozen men were carrying a huge log and were turning out from the corner of the house on the side. The steps were neat, and they shouted while walking. The log on their shoulders was afraid that it would weigh hundreds of pounds.
"Is this training?"
"Yes, yes!" Ma Hou nodded repeatedly: "These are all new personal soldiers of the general, all young and strong people who have just entered the army. They don't have much basic skills, so they are practicing."
"What are you doing with wood? Practice physical fitness? Can you have other methods? Isn't this a problem?" Liu Xingwen himself was also a soldier training, and seeing this method was a bit strange.
"General Liu, don't underestimate this wood. Strengthening physical fitness is only one aspect. What is more important is to strengthen their coordination and tacit understanding. Carrying a piece of wood together will be much more difficult if one of them is not in harmony with everyone's pace. In this way, everyone can slowly cultivate the awareness of tacit understanding and cooperation between the team. For example, the group you see is different in height and strength. How can you save the most effort in training? It depends on their own performance." Ma Hou explained with a smile.
Liu Xingwen nodded repeatedly. This was indeed a good idea. He had seen the terrifying scene of dozens or hundreds of people in the Taiping Army slashing the big swords in his hands in one by one. It turned out that this was how he practiced it, so he could imitate Mo Fang.
The garrison power of Shayang County is now under his command, and of course it is still just an empty strait. Next, he is preparing to draw personnel from the private soldiers of each family to form a garrison. Although these soldiers from each family are not new recruits, they have to be re-engaged. The Taiping Army has amazing combat effectiveness, and their training methods must be outstanding, but unfortunately they cannot get a glimpse of the whole leopard.
Walking through the wide schoolyard and passing through a row of houses, several people finally saw the main hall of the Hao family. At the door of the lobby, Qin Feng, wearing casual clothes, held his hands behind his back, and was smiling at them.
"I have met the commander!" The five of them walked a few steps quickly, clasped their fists with their hands, and bowed deeply. Putting aside the differences between the two sides, such a young level nine master is indeed worthy of their respect. As long as nothing unexpected happens, the hat of the youngest master in the world will inevitably be worn on this person.
"You don't need to be polite," Qin Feng smiled and bowed, "It's been a few days since Li came to Shayang. He hasn't gathered well with you all. Let's talk about it. It's Li's misconduct. Today, there are some differences between the governor of Quan and Deputy Wang in some aspects of governance. I came to Qin to ask for an explanation. Taking this opportunity, I invited everyone together. Everyone sat together and discussed it carefully. A hero has three helpers, a fence and three stakes. Good ideas are all discussed, right?"
Listening to this straight-forward opening remark, the five people looked at each other, but their mood became heavier. The typical style of a warrior was straightforward and straightforward. However, almost all people with such personality were extremely strong people, and once they made up their minds, they could hardly change them.
Can everyone get along happily today?
"Please!" Qin Feng turned sideways and gave in.
"Please, commander!" The five of them bowed again to ask Qin Feng to go first.
Qin Feng was not polite, so he turned around and walked inward, saying as he walked, "Mahou, go to the study and invite the county magistrate Quan and deputy magistrate Wang together. These two people were probably fighting each other. The reason may not be the more they argued, and the more they argued, the more they became clearer. Sometimes, if they stand differently, they are right, and the more they argued, the more they became more confusing, and the more they argued, the more they became more contradictory."
The horse and monkey ran away.
The five people following Qin Feng into the lobby did not feel funny because Qin Feng was humorous. Since they were talking about their own reasons, no one could convince anyone. Does that mean that it would be up to him to decide in the end?
So is this result worth mentioning?
When they walked into the hall, the five people were stunned. The lobby was not the familiar layout they had in the lobby. A circle of circular tables occupied almost half of the lobby. The empty part in the middle was now covered by a piece of black cloth, not knowing what was covered. Looking at the chairs behind the circular tables, everyone was a little confused. Are you just sitting here?
This is completely different from the deep-rooted rules and regulations in their minds that use the seat position to rank the status of each person. Where can I sit like this, will there be high and low status?
"Everyone, please sit down!" Qin Feng casually pulled a chair and sat down.
Everyone stood still without moving. After a moment, Liu Xingwen took a few steps forward, pulled a chair again, and said to Qin Feng: "Commander, please sit down."
Qin Feng looked at the chair and laughed loudly. The chair was facing the door. He stood up without comment and walked over, "Okay, then I'll sit here, please feel free to you."
Seeing him sitting down, the other people looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally each chose a chair to sit down, but looking at where they were sitting, it was obviously not suitable. For such a round table, no matter where you choose to sit down, you can almost see the expressions of other people.
"Everyone, I set up this round table today to show that in this room today, we have no distinction between superiors and inferiors. We just sit together to discuss some things. There is no need to hide it, and we don't have to worry about anything. Just say it if you have anything." Qin Feng knocked on the table and said.
Everyone was silent, and footsteps sounded outside the house again, but Quan Yun and Wang Hou came together. Seeing the two of them blushing and angry, they all looked very angry. Obviously, their communication was not smooth.
Quan Yun was stunned when he saw the layout in the house. However, Wang Hou was obviously familiar with it. He pulled a chair and sat down. Quan Yun was stunned for a moment, and then sat next to him at Liu Xingwen's instructions.
Several boys wearing small military uniforms were quick-handed and quickly put a cup of hot tea in front of everyone.
Looking around everyone, Qin Feng slowly stood up: "Everyone knows what we are going to say today, which is the matter of cleaning up the fields, but before I talk about this, I want to say something else first."
He pointed to the black cloth in the middle of the table in front of him, "Do you want to know what is covered under the black cloth?"
Everyone shook their heads silently. Qin Feng looked at Quan Yun whose face had changed a little and smiled: "Mr. Quan, don't worry, this is definitely not a bloody head."
Wang Houchi burst into laughter, which made Quan Yun glar at him.
Qin Feng stretched out his hand and a black cloth in the middle flew up and fell into Qin Feng's hand. The eyes of the few people fell on the objects that appeared in the middle, and they were all very surprised. Hey, the sound of amazement kept ringing.
It was a model of mountains, rivers and geography, and it was done well. The people here all lived in Shayang County for most of their lives. It was obvious at a glance that this was a model of Shayang County.
"This is a mountain and river geographical model of Shayang County. I think everyone recognizes it?" Qin Feng pointed to the model in the middle and asked.
"Of course I recognize it." Liu Xingwen nodded.
Chapter completed!
