The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 55

Does Wang Bi still have a choice?He had no choice for a long time. From the beginning of working in Honey Pavilion, he was destined to be tied up with Sun Jie, and he was destined to be inseparable.

Looking at Wang Bi in front of him, Sun Jie put down the rice bowl in his hand and helped him up.

"No need to do that, just do a good job here in the future, and your wages will be doubled as before."

Sun Jie also didn't want to paint big cakes, and he didn't want to talk about what would happen to him in the future, what would happen if he conquered the world.

Walking in the world, down-to-earth is the foundation. No matter how much you talk, it is better to do things well.

Wang Bi picked up his rice bowl again, and sat down to eat with Sun Jie.

……

The alarm clock on the bedside rang, Sun Jie opened his eyes and sat up.

He took the alarm clock and looked at the time on it. The pointer pointed to seven in the morning.

Turn off the alarm clock, wind it up again, and put it on the bed again.

This wind-up alarm clock operates reliably, requires no batteries, and can last for many years with proper use.

Sun Jie bought many such alarm clocks from Hyundai, and almost every household in those common people has one.

There are also in the military. After all, it is necessary to train the young men according to the time. Time is tight. Using the alarm clock can effectively save time and cultivate the time spirit of these young men.

Stretched, got dressed, and walked out of the tent.

Another new day.

That has come to the sky in the east, Sun Jie yawned.

After washing his face and clearing his mind, he went to Chen De's place.

Let him gather all the people in front of his tent and prepare to arrange things.

Not long after, under the leadership of Chen De, all these common people stood in front of Sun Jie's tent.

Sun Jie stood in front of these people, and Wang Bi stood behind him.

Looking around, he said, "Today, I will introduce you to a steward. In the future, when I am away, if you encounter any problems or encounter problems that cannot be resolved, report to him.

Also, you must unconditionally implement the arrangements he made.In the days when I am not around, he is me, and you must obey his orders.

If anyone dares to disobey, they will be directly expelled from the station! "

The voice is very harsh, full of indisputability.

The people in front of them all shut their mouths and watched quietly without saying a word.

Sun Jie pulled Wang Bi in front of him, patted him on the shoulder, and introduced him to everyone.

The people in front of them are basically simple-minded people.

In this troubled world, being able to take them in and give them food is already the greatest kindness. What else can they say?
It took a few minutes, and things were almost done.

Wang Bi was not idle. On the first day he took office, he started wandering around every household to learn about the situation of each household.

Chen Song went to Chen Hu's place to check the training situation.

The training ground is very flat, with so many people training here for a long time, the ground has already been flattened.

Chen Hu was training the young men, when he saw Sun Jie coming, he asked the young men to train by themselves, and hurried towards Sun Jie.

"grown ups!"

When he came to Sun Jie, he bowed his hands and saluted.

"I saw the training situation yesterday, and it wasn't wrong.

You are going to prepare for these few days, go out with me in a few days, bring five hundred strong men, and go north to Yaozhou.

We still have a piece of land there, so we can check coal by the way. "Sun Jie said.

"Follow your lord's order!"

Chen Hu returned to the front of the strong men and trained them harder.

Three days later, Sun Jie woke up early, put on his clothes, and stood in front of the tent.

It was still dark, and the sky in the east was pitch black, with few stars in the sky.

Five hundred well-equipped soldiers stood in front of Sun Jie, holding solar flashlights in their hands, in a strict formation.

The wind blew up again, but the wind was not strong, and the dust that was rolled up was limited, and it only choked the nose.

Looking at the well-groomed men in front of him, Sun Jie shouted, "Tell me, what are your responsibilities?"

"Obey the military order!"

Five hundred strong men roared and shouted in unison, the momentum shook the sky.

Sun Jie was very satisfied. He looked at these strong men, and shouted again: "All of them, turn right, aim for the north, go forward!"

The strong men lined up neatly, headed north, and began to advance.

There are also a large number of carriages in the team, and there are military rations, tents, drones, emergency power supplies and other items on the carriages.

Chen Hu led the horse and brought twenty cavalrymen to Sun Jie.

"My lord, I'm ready and ready to go!" Chen Hu cupped his hands and said.

Chen Hu used to be the elite of the night, this time, he will lead twenty cavalry to act as the eyes and ears of the army.

"Okay, let's go!" Sun Jie waved his hand and shouted loudly.

"Follow your lord's order!"

Get on the horse, hit the horse and go.

"Let's go too!"

Sun Jie took the flashlight and walked forward.

Zhao Dading followed around with a dozen or so veteran guards.

Liang Wu stayed in the camp, and Wang Bi cooperated.

There are patches of light on the road in front of the strong man, and the beams from the solar flashlight shine on the ground in front of him.

This is much better than a torch. You don't have to worry about burning out the fuel on the torch, and you don't have to worry about being blown out by too much wind, let alone causing a fire.

The team marched on the loess land, sometimes turning, sometimes going uphill, and sometimes going downhill.

Sun Jie's residence was not far from Yaozhou, and within a day, he came to Yaozhou.

Sun Jie stood at the front of the team, holding in his hand the fish scale book that Zhou Da had given him earlier, as well as the map obtained from later generations.

After looking at it for a while, Sun Jie pointed to the northwest, and said, "Twenty li ahead, you will find the place on the fish scale book!"

Put away the map, looked at Zhao Dading who was following him, "Let all soldiers speed up, don't have any delay!"

"Follow your lord's order!"

Zhao Dading gave the order and brought a few strong men to the side of the team.

He shouted at the top of his voice: "Everyone, speed up, don't have any delay!"

The speed of the team has accelerated a bit.

……

From here to the northwest, about 25 li, there is a hill that is not high but has ravines.

The mountain is on a bare rock, and there are no trees on it. Although some weeds have grown, they are already withered and yellow at this time.

In this midsummer world, grass cannot grow here.

It is a place without people, and ordinary people will definitely not be able to live here.

Things are not absolute. There is a stockade on the mountain called Yelangbao.

The people living inside are not good people, they are all bandits who rob houses and do all kinds of evil.

There are almost a thousand people who have been showing off their power in Yaozhou for many years.

They were all professional bandits. Before Li Zicheng and the others rebelled, these people had already taken root here.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, which mountain had no bandits?Which state has no strongman?

Now that the troubled times have come, it has become the best time for these people, each of them is swimming in water and living a very comfortable life.

They don't have the lofty dreams of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and if they think about it, it's just a big bowl of wine and big mouthfuls of meat.

For many years, he has been showing off his power near Yaozhou, looting houses, killing people and setting fires.

Yaozhou's officers and soldiers also attacked, but they relied on the convenient location and the serious corruption of the officers and soldiers, so they have been at ease until now.

There is a thatched cottage in the cottage, a trapezoidal plaque hangs on it, and a few big characters are written on it.

It's like earthworms dipped in ink and crawled over. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell what the words are.

"Dayi Hall", these three big characters are really weird, two of the three characters are wrong, only that one is correct.

The thatched cottage is not big, and its width is no more than seven or eight paces.

There were several lame stools and tables with disabled feet, and four men sat inside, sitting around a table.

The clothes on his body were full of patches, and the shoes and socks on his feet were already torn.

There were several broken bowls on the table, which contained some turbid wine soup.

The old man, Wang Da, picked up the broken bowl and drank the turbid wine soup inside in one gulp.

Scratching his sparse hair again, he said with a look of resentment: "His grandma's, everyone said that rebellion is good. But I don't think that King Chuang made such a fuss before, sweeping most of Shaanxi, and even Rumor has it that he is going to be emperor.

But now?In the end, he didn't get anything, let alone his own life.Now I don't know where he died. It is said that he seems to have been taken to Lingchi, the capital.

What a tragedy! "

"Yeah, although our brothers are not as powerful as King Chuang, but fortunately we are at ease.

There are still a few fat pigs in the stockade, plus the food we robbed before, enough for us brothers to eat and drink! "The second son, Wang Erer, answered.

Those few fat pigs in the stockade were not raised by them. They robbed houses and were predatory, so how could they raise pigs?
A while ago, they went down the mountain and robbed a landlord's manor near the city, and they also robbed all the fat pigs.

The third son, Wang Sansan, also said, "That's right, how many years have we been here at ease? Although the power is small, it's a little small, and the number of people is small, but we are still at ease.

If there is not enough food, go out and grab it.Holding a knife and walking down the mountain, you can get what you want, isn't it happier than them? ! "

The fourth youngest Wang Yaosi was not as optimistic as they were, he was full of worry and worry.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, we are happy, but you all know the reputation of King Sun Yan.

If all the great kings in this place in Shaanxi are wiped out, will it be our turn next?

Thinking of this, I couldn't sleep all night long, and I was really worried and scared! "

The four brothers were originally not a family, but in their view, since they have become bandits, they must always be the leader, and they will be sworn brothers with Jinlan.

But they are not very educated. Dou Dazi doesn't know anyone, and he lost his shoulder pole, so he doesn't know who he is.

After thinking about it for a long time, I don't know what kind of nickname to give.

I simply picked up a few at random, first arrange them in order, and then tie up a scholar or something, and let them help think about it.

"Bah! What kind of crooked reasoning are you talking about? How can there be so many crappy things!"

Wang Dayi spit on the ground, put his right foot on the stool, and kept digging between his toes with his right hand, and even put it under his nose to smell it.

"So what about King Sun Yan? It's not like those officers and soldiers in Yaozhou didn't beat us before. In the end, didn't they do anything to us? What are you afraid of? They carry a head on their shoulders, afraid of shit!" Wang Dayi Disapproval.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, it's meal time, let's kill pigs and eat meat!" Wang Dayi stood up, picked up the broken iron knife at his feet, carried it on his shoulder, and walked outside.

Not long after, the screams of fat pigs sounded in the village.

In the open space in the center of the village, a large iron pot was only on top of the fire.

The fuel under the big iron pot is not the common wood, but pieces of coal.

Where are the trees near here?If they relied on wood, these people would have starved to death long ago.

There is a big pit behind the stockade, and there is coal in the pit.

This is an open-pit mine, and there is no need to go down the mine to mine, just to mine on the top, and the coal produced is enough for these people.

The coal here has been burned for a long time, and the village has been relying on these coals for a living.

Without this coal mine, these people would have starved to death and froze to death.

Soon, the smell of meat wafted up, and the leaders of the village sat in front of the iron pot, eating meat and drinking in big bowls.

After the meal, I don't know whether it is because I ate too much meat or drank too much wine.

Wang Dayi asked Wang Yaosi to take three hundred minions down the mountain to wander around, to see if he could gain something.

There have been fewer and fewer thieves in Shaanxi recently, and some business travelers pass by here from time to time.

Although the quantity is small, if you encounter it, you can eat it for a long time.

This set has long been familiar, Wang Yaosi naturally did not refuse.

He went down the mountain with three hundred minions.

……

The roads in Fuping County are already difficult to walk, not to mention that it is further north than Fuping.

There are criss-cross gullies everywhere, and it is very difficult to walk.

It wasn't until dark that Sun Jie arrived at the location on the fish scale book.

Looking around, there are undulating earthen walls everywhere.

Where is this cultivated land?It's not even considered wasteland. I dare not say that there is no land to stand on, but there is no way to cultivate food.

It was getting dark, so Sun Jie ordered to camp in place.

One tent after another was set up here, and the strong men set up pots to cook.

If the land is not good enough, then find a coal mine.

These infantrymen had plenty of time to eat, but those night soldiers led by Chen Hu did not have such good conditions.

Chen Hu was riding on the horse, holding the horse's rein with his left hand, and putting his right hand into the cloth pocket at his waist.

He took out a handful of browned fried rice from the inside, and stuffed it into his mouth indiscriminately.

He then groped into another cloth pocket, took out a piece of heavily salted beef jerky, stuffed it into his mouth again, and chewed it.

An aluminum military jug hangs on his chest. Open the lid of the jug and pour the water into his mouth.

Swallowing all the food in his mouth into his stomach, Chen Hu put everything back in place.

These things don't look very good, but compared to when they were in the frontier army, they are heaven.

He wiped his mouth indiscriminately and looked to the north.

"Brothers, eat something casually, after a quarter of an hour, we will continue north!"

Turning around, looking at the strong men following behind him, he shouted.

The same is true for the strong men behind them, eating the rations they brought.
