Chapter 4 Defenders of the East Gate of Sizhou City(1/2)
Chapter 4 The defenders at the east gate of Sizhou City
As the night approached, Cheng De listened to the snoring in the room, not feeling sleepy at all.
Cheng De was thinking about his performance during the day and wanted to understand why he had such courage.
After thinking about it, Cheng De attributed all this to the white light that hit his eyebrows before traveling through time. Perhaps, it was what he could rely on in this troubled world.
From the current point of view, it has increased its strength. At least during the daytime competition with Tumenbatai, it was not as embarrassed as first imagined.
I just don’t know if that white light has any other effects.
Thinking that I still have enough time, in the days to come, I can try one by one and try to discover what abilities I have.
In addition, Cheng De is quite excited that he controls a team of 20 people. Although the number is not very large, Cheng De believes that he will definitely control more teams in the future.
When you have enough troops under your control, you must seize the opportunity and fly the banner of anti-Yuan. You must first control Sizhou City, and then use it as a springboard to control several nearby cities.
Moreover, if all these can be realized, then he can also follow Zhu Yuanzhang's approach in history, use Nanjing as his base, and then secretly develop his own power to compete with various heroes in the future.
This world, from ancient times to the present, has been inhabited by capable people.
Hearing Li Sanqi's voice, everyone went out excitedly.
Finally, talent. Talents from all walks of life are currently being recruited as much as possible. Of course, this matter is a long-term matter.
Cheng De stopped after hitting Tai Chi several times in succession based on the Tai Chi in his mind.
What suddenly appeared in the yard was a strong man in his thirties. He was wearing a black battle armor, a yellow robe, and holding an eight-foot-long sword. Among dozens of sturdy men also wearing black battle armor,
Under the support of A's soldiers, his eyes were stern.
"How is your second uncle like you? Is he strict with his words? Right now, I have an important thing to do, but it must be left to someone our brothers can trust."
As for wanting to seek refuge with Zhu Yuanzhang, Cheng De had no such dangerous thoughts at all.
Cheng De quickly walked up to this strange strong man and said, "I am Cheng De!"
Cheng De patted He Sanwu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Good brother, I, Cheng De, am blessed by God to meet a brother like you!"
He Sanwu approached Cheng De, then looked around and found that no one else was approaching, so he lowered his voice and said, "Brother, I have something to tell you."
"He Sanwu, who do you want to be in the future?"
After putting on the armor, everyone's energy and spirit immediately rose by more than one level, and they looked somewhat heroic.
Seeing He Sanwu scratching his head in such a simple and honest manner, Cheng De was amused and moved at the same time.
At this time, there was silence all around the courtyard.
Cheng De took a shower with the well water in the courtyard. Although it was already October, Cheng De still felt a bit of chill in the air.
If you want to firmly hold Sizhou City in your hands, you must seize an opportunity, and the number of people you currently have in your hands is too small.
Sure enough, a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle!
After all, history has clearly shown that it is easy to die as an official under Zhu Yuanzhang, so this idea must not be entertained!
Rather than leaving your destiny to others, it's better to take it into your own hands.
"Well, when you have time later, you can take me to meet your second uncle."
Cheng De already has a general idea in his mind about how to make money. The technologies he currently masters include: gunpowder, cement, glass, soap, brewing, etc. Relatively speaking, glass and soap are both feasible.
"Who is Cheng De?"
"I am Lin Shan, the commander-in-chief of Hundred Households of Banotu. Following Lord Banotu's order, I have brought you some things, including twenty pairs of armor, twenty spears, and some daily clothing.
In addition, Mr. Banotu asked me to tell you that starting from 10 o'clock tomorrow, you will lead your men to the east gate of Sizhou City to change the defense. The specific details will be informed by the person who changes the defense at that time!"
It didn't take long for everyone to pick out their clothes and put them on on the spot.
When he came to the yard, Cheng De found that the food was specially delivered by someone. Each person received 2 black lumps and 1 bowl of porridge, and one bowl was free!
When he opened all the boxes, Cheng De saw the desire deep in the eyes of the brothers. After all, with armor, the survival rate on the battlefield is relatively higher, and it is understandable to be happy.
"What's wrong?" Cheng De smiled.
Thirdly, intelligence. The importance of intelligence is very important for fighting. In many famous battles in history, people usually know the intelligence first, and then roughly use the time difference to win the war. As for how this intelligence develops, Cheng De thinks that he can
Sizhou City builds a restaurant, and this also requires enough money.
First of all, to secretly develop a team, this team must have a legitimate identity on the surface, and to achieve this goal, it must have a lot of money.
"Brother, when are you going to pick it up?"
Seeing everyone wearing armor, Cheng De noticed that everyone was suddenly different.
"Brother, don't worry. My second uncle has loved me as his own son since I was a child. He is cautious and has always been taciturn. He is very trustworthy!"
"The top priority is to make money first! As for how to make money, let's make glass first. After all, it is easy to accumulate enough wealth in a short time. As for how to sell the glass, we need to make some additional plans!" Looking at Black
The paint-painted roof, Cheng De murmured.
As for why he practices Tai Chi, Cheng De wants to maintain his health and live longer.
"Hey, elder brother is like father, I listen to elder brother!" Li Sanqi walked towards the well with a smile.
"He Sanwu, do you know any craftsmen, carpenters, blacksmiths, etc."
Half a moment.
Not long after, Li Sanqi, who was outside the house, suddenly said: "Brother, it's time to eat!"
When he thought of this, something called ambition appeared in Cheng De.
"Originally I wanted to keep this matter a secret, but yesterday I was moved by my eldest brother's ambition. At the same time, considering that it is currently difficult for him to achieve success, I decided to tell him. I only hope that he can realize his ambition as soon as possible.
"
In a blink of an eye, it was already noon.
After finishing speaking, Lin Shan waved his hand, and dozens of soldiers carried several boxes and placed them on the ground.
Looking at Lin Shan's back, Cheng De secretly said a pity in his heart. From Lin Shan's words and expression just now, it can be seen that he is a die-hard member of the Yuan Dynasty. In the future, there will inevitably be confrontation on the battlefield, and even swords against each other.
He Sanwu nodded, "Brother, I listen to you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole courtyard suddenly became noisy.
Later, when Cheng De tidied up his clothes, the people in the room gradually got up.
At this moment, Cheng De was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back. Thinking that he only had two meals a day, Cheng De secretly decided to eat three meals a day when he took power.
Countless ideas instantly appeared in Cheng De's mind. After some sorting, they were roughly divided into four steps.
Before Cheng De could say anything, He Sanwu whispered in Cheng De's ear.
Cheng De walked up to Lin Shan and expressed his gratitude to Lin Shan.
At this time, He Sanwu walked towards Cheng De. His expression was serious, as if he was hiding something on his mind.
Secondly, collect grain. If an army wants to grow, it must have enough grain, so it must secretly store grain. And collecting grain requires money.
"Get up as soon as you wake up. Li Sanqi, you'd better wipe your face first. There's a lot of eye droppings on your face, and you don't look very energetic."
Later, after Cheng De and He Sanwu talked about some daily trivial matters, they contacted several other brothers to express their feelings.
Before long, Cheng De was sweating profusely.
It was dawn the next day.
The strong man looked at Cheng De, but Cheng De's expression did not change.
At present, I should try my best to climb up, and strive to gain more power before 1352 arrives.
However, this does not mean that Cheng De's attitude will be soft. If they are deliberately looking for trouble, then they should be tougher and see who is more powerful. If you can't deal with them, why are you talking about fighting for world domination?
These thoughts appeared in Cheng De's mind in just a blink of an eye.
Cheng De once again expressed his gratitude to Lin Shan, but Lin Shan did not respond and led the people away on the spot.
Time flies.
After listening to what Lin Shan said, Cheng De thought to himself: Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. It seems that we will inevitably have to deal with those leaders in the future.
As for whether to change history, Cheng De did not consider such a thing, because in Cheng De's view, perhaps the time and space he was in was just a parallel world of the original time and space.
"Okay, I'll take my brother there then!"
Cheng De thought over and over again and decided to set a small goal: to master Sizhou City first.
"Hehe, big brother said that, it makes me feel quite embarrassed!"
After listening to what He Sanwu said, Cheng De was very excited. He patted He Sanwu on the shoulder and said: "He Sanwu, brother has remembered this matter. If he succeeds in the future, he will never forget you."
A share of the credit.”
After retracting his gaze, Cheng De looked around at everyone, saw what everyone was thinking, and said, "Brothers, each of you choose a pair of armor, a spear, and a set of clothes from the box."
"Master Banotu asked me to do these. If you want to thank me, just thank Master Banotu! By the way, there is something I want to remind you. These twenty pairs of armors were originally spotted by several other brand leaders.
However, Lord Banotu gave them to you for use, which caused their dissatisfaction."
Cheng De did not answer immediately, but thought for a while, "He Sanwu, as long as you and I know about this matter for now, we will take some time to plan it after our responsibilities are arranged today.
