I have a fortune book

Chapter 99 Recognizing the Lord of the Stars, Cangshan Alliance

"Boss, the golden soldiers in the north are ready to move now. In order to protect the border and keep the people safe, your village should also send some manpower." Zhou Yuan led someone forward at the right time.

"Join the village protection team, and get two taels of silver for the family, a set of winter clothes, and you can share the mountains and fields for meritorious service!"

"Boss, Xie Yuangong's soldiers are all good soldiers, I am willing to join!"

"I want to join too! Me, me."

When all the dust settled, the Qianren Village recruited a total of fifty mountain warriors.

Zhou Bai looked at the group of simple mountain people in front of him, and asked Zhou Yuan in a low voice: "The general you mentioned can be here?"

Zhou Yuan nodded confidently, and pulled out a thin and inconspicuous young mountain man from the crowd. He stood there holding a wooden spear, as if the man and the spear were integrated into one, and his vigor revealed the spirit of the sky.

"Gao Hu, weren't you very courageous when you fought with me?! You haven't come to see the patriarch yet."

"My lord, this kid is called Gao Hu. It was the first time I came here. He shot my guards one by one. He was very brave." Zhou Yuan was afraid that Zhou Bai would not believe him, so he quickly explained from the side.

The first time Zhou Bai saw Gao Hu, he knew that this man was a fierce general, and his undisguised sharpness was simply a born pioneer.

"Do you care if you are full? Can you be my boss?" Seeing Zhou Bai walking up to him, Gao Hu asked in a muffled voice.

"Hahaha, of course I don't care, if you don't have enough to eat, you can find me."

Then a soul pressure that outsiders could not feel shrouded Gao Hu, Zhou Bai looked at him seriously and said, "Can I be your boss?"

Gao Hu was a little out of breath, as if he was being targeted by some terrifying beast, he didn't dare to look directly into Zhou Bai's bright eyes, and replied subduedly: "If you give me food, then I will sell my life to you!" You, I, like him, call you my lord."

At this time, Zhou Bai saw a big and unruly gun lowered in front of him, and a star that broke the army was shining brightly outside the sky.

Sharpshooter into the body?Taking into account the fate of breaking the army?He is indeed an indomitable general who breaks the army!
Zhou Bai also made a gesture of courtesy to a corporal, bent down to support Gao Hu, and between the two arms intertwined, a starlight visible to the naked eye flashed past.

This is a sign that the star recognizes the Lord!

Opening the book of luck, Zhou Bai could only see a dragon carp surrounded by the light of two stars on the projected shadow of luck, and even a few more golden fish scales grew on its body.

In addition to Chen Zhongbang, a civil servant assistant star, Zhou Bai now officially has an additional military commander assistant star to serve.

[Original Points: 47] (With all the civil and military assistant stars, the team has begun to take shape. You will definitely leave a strong mark on the road to the dragon in the future, and the original points will be added by ten.)
The stars shine brightly because of the meeting between the Lord and the ministers.

But the other mountain people didn't know, they only saw Gao Hu, a nameless boy, once he joined Zhou Bai's command, he would immediately appear miraculously.

This is not the Lord of Destiny of the Mountain People, what is that.

The leader of the mountain people was convinced at this time, he was close, and he could clearly see the starlight on Gao Hu's body.

So I went to other villages next. The leader of the mountain people and a few old people volunteered, and they were in charge of contacting.

When Zhou Bai went down the mountain in the evening, there were already three hundred mountain warriors behind him, and this battalion was organized by him as a mountain battalion.

After finishing the training at the manor under the mountain, the mountain camp will be stationed in Cangshan Mountain, one is to maintain the influence of the Zhou family in Cangshan Mountain, and the other is to be responsible for guarding many inner palace industries in Cangshan Mountain.

Fertilizer workshops, wineries, blacksmith shops using hydraulic forging hammers, branches of Tiangongyuan... and thousands of acres of mountain fields under development all need people to guard and inspect.

……

When Zhou Bai personally led the army to train, invitations for the banquet held by the head of the Zhou family had also been sent to the hands of the major families.

On October 22, Hongni Township became the busiest place in Pingcang County. Whether it was someone from a powerful family or nearby villagers, there was a feast for everyone who came.

The villagers can eat a few auspicious words, and they can eat the flowing water mat that has been set up for a whole day, and the representatives of the major families, of course, can't lose their share.

The families who came included small families from various townships in Pingcang. These families had not entered the ranks of the township clan, so they came here purely to embrace the thigh of the Zhou family, a wealthy family in the new county.

As the main guests, He, Lu, Kong, Yan and other township tycoons were not absent. Even Chen, Qian, Shi, Yu and other county tycoons sent gifts. Only the Zhao family was so shameless that they didn't even bother to maintain it .

Of course, these county tycoon families are best at adapting to the wind and the wind. Now that the news of the county magistrate Ji Hongzhe's term of office has gone viral, they will not really join the alliance created by Zhou Bai.

One more county tycoon means that the interests of the county will be divided, and the old county tycoon family is even more unwilling.

Now that the Zhao family is in the lead, they are oppressing the Zhou family openly and aboveboard.

In Qunshitang, Zhou Bai convened a meeting with the patriarchs of several clans.

"Everyone, if you are able to come, you must know the current situation in the county. If something really happens, will those county lords in the county send troops to support us?"

"Most of their properties are located near the county seat. Even if there are a few manors scattered in various towns, it won't be a big loss if they lose them."

"As for our family, the foundations of generations have been rooted in the townships in the north of the county. There must be no chaos in the north of the county!"

There is no long speech, Zhou Bai only analyzes the current situation faced by several companies, and it is just like this that moves people's hearts.

"Duke Xie Yuan, your Zhou family has been promoted to the county tycoon, so you won't transfer the property to the county?"

It was the head of the He family who questioned them. Their family rooted in Fengdeng Township near Hongni Township and belonged to a family that has been friends for generations, so they spoke boldly and directly.

Zhou Bai looked around at the eyes of the patriarchs present, and directly took a picture of his [-] mu of mountain land lease documents.

"In the future, my Zhou family will use Cangshan Mountain as its foundation for development. Otherwise, why would I put so much effort into asking you to form an alliance?"

"Cangshan is too long and too big. Your family business is distributed along the mountain. You must value Cangshan as much as I do."

"Outsiders only know that there are bitter passes in Cangshan Mountain as the main passage, but we people know that there are many trails in Cangshan Mountain that can connect the north and the south."

Several patriarchs nodded after hearing Zhou Bai's words.

"The big army has to go through a difficult pass, but even if only a small group of Jin troops come through a small path, we small clans can't bear it."

"It seems that Xie Yuangong really wants to form an alliance. Our interests are indeed in the northern boundary of the county." Soon a few people muttered a few words, and it seemed that a consensus was about to be reached.

However, Yan Shang, the head of the Yan family, seemed a little hesitant. He said in a deep voice, "It's too early to form an alliance. With Cangbei County at the forefront, it's not so easy for Jin Bing to come here. To put it bluntly, who knows what your Zhou family thinks?" , just promoted to county tycoon, it may not be because he wants to annex us and develop."

"Hmph, Lao Yan, you're afraid of the Zhao family, so why bother to falsely accuse Duke Xie Yuan!"

"That's right, no matter how powerful the Zhao family is, can they control us? Don't be fooled, the Zhao family alliance won't help us!"

Yan Shang's words quickly aroused the opposition of all the patriarchs, which made him so angry that it was difficult for him to stay any longer.

Of course, he still won't forget to stay in the scene before leaving.

"Xianzun Ji will be transferred soon. I heard that the new county zun is close to the Zhao family. Don't make mistakes."

The scene suddenly turned cold, and Zhou Bai smiled when he saw this: "No matter what the attitude of the new county lord is, what we should think about right now is how to spend this winter. You will not entrust the fate of your family on the fact that the golden soldiers will not come to invade the south. Bar?"

A single word awakened the dreamer, and the chiefs of several village clans were all people who had experienced turmoil, so they immediately understood Zhou Bai's meaning.

It's just right to solve the current troubles if you pass the test.

As a result, a Cangshan alliance was reached, and all ethnic groups agreed to help each other, but if foreign enemies invaded, they must send troops to support them.

As for the follow-up related in-depth cooperation, the alliance has not yet established confidence, so it can only be shelved for the time being.

And not long after, the catastrophe that tested the Cangshan Alliance arrived.

At the end of October, a bigger snowstorm covered the north and south of Cangshan Mountain, the last vitality of the grassland was cut off, most of the tribes in the Kingdom of Jin were forced to move south, and there was a fierce conflict on the Daxu border wall.

On November [-]rd, Prince Wuzhao of the Kingdom of Jin took office as Supervisor.

The first thing he did when he took office was to ask the Daxu court for supplies for the winter. Of course, this kind of offensive behavior was not allowed, so he raised his troops and invaded Cangbei County.

On November [-]th, the news that Emperor Daxu Xiangxing was seriously ill spread like wildfire, and the court was in a mess, and there was no time to take care of Bianjun.

On November [-]th, Cangbei County had no reinforcements outside and could only hold on to the city. The Jin soldiers were unable to break through the city, so they scattered and looted.

A small group of Jin soldiers sneaked into the counties of Bei'an County along the many trails of Cangshan Mountain, and Pingcang County became the focus of the Jin people's looting.
