late han empire

() The next day, Gao Shun led a hundred soldiers back to Liujia Village.

Along with the team came back 160 thieves who had surrendered, as well as a large amount of spoils.

The thieves who stayed behind had no idea that the five hundred troops of the main force would lose, but when Gao Shun took out the heads of the first and third masters, and threatened to burn the cottage to the ground if he did not surrender, the cowardly thieves really gave up resistance.

For the enemies who gave up resistance, Gao Shun pleaded with Liu Ming to forgive them.Even if they are not accepted to join Liujia Village, I hope that they can be given some money and food, and let them leave at will.

Liu Ming smiled and accepted the 160 thieves to join.These left-behind thieves are actually old and weak women and children in the cottage, and less than [-]% of them can actually fight, so they are recruited.

However, for the nearly one hundred captives who dared to attack Liujia Village, the conditions were not so good.He was personally escorted by Gao Shun and sent to the county seat in exchange for greater political status.

"By the way, the buildings in the village seem to be different from when I left." Gao Shun asked suddenly.

"It's nothing, it's just that the times have improved. To put it simply, if you regard us as a rare commodity, then the old man is also an investor. Our outstanding performance made it decide to invest more." Liu Ming explained with a smile .

Yes, using this method to explain is the best explanation, and it is also the most acceptable explanation.

Sure enough, Gao Shun smiled and said after hearing this: "It's an old man, it really thinks highly of us!"

Soon, Gao Shun began to escort the captives to Zhuo County.Accompanying him was [-]% of the spoils that were confiscated after the capture of Tianwangzhai.The specific use of these trophies will not be explained in detail.It's just that Liu Ming's heart still hurts seeing so many jewelry and antiques being sent out.

"Liu San..." Liu Ming shouted weakly.

"My lord, my subordinates are here!" Liu San replied sincerely. From the address, it could be heard that he had decided to submit to Liu Ming completely.

"Send someone to count the trophies and deal with them according to the old rules. As for the captives, immediately send someone to prepare a shelter for them." Liu Ming ordered casually, and then walked towards his own residence.

"Here!" Liu San shouted, and immediately arranged for it.

But when he turned around, he subconsciously looked back at Liu Ming who was slowly walking away.

I secretly muttered in my heart: 14-year-old boy...it's really hard for him these few days...it's not easy!

All the trophies were counted. Except for the food that was reserved as a reserve, the rest of the sundries, money, and even armor and weapons were sent to Liu Ming's residence.

Looking at the pile of things in the backyard, Liu Ming turned on the system and sold them all.As a result, 10526 units of coins were exchanged.This figure is only about 60% of the total value.

500 villagers were immediately recruited. Now the village has enough money to support more people, what is lacking is enough labor and soldiers.The shortage of wood has already made Liu Ming very dissatisfied.

If there is really anything left that I really want to do, I probably want to upgrade to the 'Castle Age' as soon as possible?Unfortunately, hope and reality always run counter to each other.

The cold voice of the system came with very uncomfortable news: To upgrade the 'Castle Age', you need to have 1 prestige, and build a blacksmith shop, market, and hospital, and finally spend 3000 units of coins.

The latter few things are not a problem at all, what he cares most about is just prestige.

"System, how do I get prestige, how much prestige do I have now!" Liu Ming shouted.

"Every ten people who recognize your right to rule can gain a little prestige; foreign battles can also gain a certain amount of prestige according to the scale of the battle and the situation of the enemy; you can also get a certain amount of prestige when you get the canonization of the Han Dynasty and obtain official positions or honors. Quantitative prestige.

The host's current prestige is... Calculation in progress... Calculation completed... The total prestige is 453 prestige points.Among them, the villagers provide 103 prestige points; the position of the village chief provides 200 prestige points; and the extermination of bandits obtains 150 prestige points. "The system replied truthfully.

At this moment, he understood that it was really impossible to reach the sky in one step.

Speaking of both ends, Gao Shun led the militia and arrived at the county government office at around ten o'clock the next morning.Under the arrangement of the county magistrate, the handover was completed with a high profile.As for the trophies...has that ever existed?

That's right, such a poor thief, how could he have any property!If you accidentally seized such sundries worth more than ten pennies, you should be the county magistrate's reward to Liujia Village.

At the same time, the county magistrate reported the matter to the sheriff.Considering the problem of border instability, Liujia Village was given a certain military establishment.To put it bluntly, Liu Jiacun was asked for the title and weaving of a frontier lieutenant.As for who Liujia Village arranges to be the school lieutenant, the county magistrate doesn't care.

A school lieutenant, under the jurisdiction of the military captain, Sima, Junhou, garrison chief, team leader, special chief, and corps chief, has about 2000 people.In other words, Liujia Village can legally recruit a team of 2000 people, but the premise is that the money and food are self-financed!

At this time, in fact, the Han Dynasty had not yet collapsed to the point where it could not pay for the army.

It's just that due to some special reasons, Liu Ming's army can't get any money and food, and the county magistrate also hopes that this army should be fully staffed as soon as possible!This is not only his meaning, but also the meaning of the sheriff!

"Brother, come to Zhuo County, don't you want to sit down?" On the return journey, Zhang Fei was already waiting on the only way.

"I have to go back and return to my life... The village chief is probably a little anxious. Besides... Forget it, I think you should understand..." Gao Shun smiled and walked directly beside Zhang Fei .

"Is this forcing me to make a decision?" Zhang Fei said half-jokingly.

"No one can force you to make a decision, but...you seem to have already decided." Gao Shun didn't look back, but the words came.

"I really hate that others know me so well." Zhang Fei smiled.

At this moment, Zhang Fei no longer had the vulgarity and barbarism of the past, only calm and wise.At this moment, he is more like a scholar than a butcher than ever before.

To be honest, there are not many people in this world who really understand him.

When Gao Shun's team left, Zhang Fei suddenly became vulgar again, and shouted with his hands on his hips: "What are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up and get to work!"

"Yes, Master Zhang!" The guys immediately got busy, thinking to themselves: Did I make a mistake just now?

Silently opened a door, Zhang Fei entered slowly, closed the door gently and sat down.

"Decided?" Zhang Hu looked at him with a kind expression.

"Extraordinary goods to live in!" Zhang Fei nodded.

The father and son never said a word, just looked at each other silently, and smiled silently towards each other.

Three days later, Zhang Fei and Zhang Fei joined the Liu Family Village.

At the same time: two hundred war horses, five hundred soldiers, money and food, and countless iron ore...
