    "Alas, the soldiers pass through like a sieve, as expected!

    Let¡¯s kill them.

    There¡¯s no need to be merciful anymore. Let¡¯s discuss the next plan after we kill them.  "

    Zhang Dou sighed, then took out a repeating crossbow that had never been used before from the back of the cow, and began to shoot at the soldiers who were arrogant and wielding swords.

    At the same time, Alxa and even the only girl among them, Zhang Hui, all took out their repeating crossbows and started shooting at the surrounding soldiers. It goes without saying that the power of the repeating crossbows was not to mention.  They still held twelve consecutive crossbows in their hands. Even if one or two shots missed occasionally, most of them could still hit the target.

    So within a short while, most of the soldiers who had besieged them were quickly killed or injured.

    The leading soldier was shot in the forehead by Zhang Dou's first arrow and died on the spot.

    In the end, there were only two of them. Because they stood at the back and did not take action, and maybe they were less courageous, they turned around and fled on horseback as soon as the leader died, and survived.

    Zhang Dou and the others were too lazy to chase, and they couldn't catch up on the ox, so they had to give up.

    ¡°Forget it about those two.

    I originally thought what grandma said was a bit exaggerated, but now it seems that grandma¡¯s words even have some reservations, just looking at the behavior of these soldiers.

    The ruler here is not worth following.

    You guys say we should continue to the east or south to see if there are any hidden dragons.

    Then help him calm the world.

    Or should we just gather some bandits here, pacify our hometown first, and be the masters of our own country?  "

    Although Qiao Mu nominally asked them to come out and start a family, Zhang Dou and the others knew very well that in order to establish a career in these troubled times, didn't they have to either follow the Ming Dynasty or become a warlord on their own?

    So, he asked now.

    Ask others what they think.

    "Brother, I choose the latter option. The northwest is our hometown after all. We cannot allow our hometown to remain in such a dilapidated state.

    What's more, I estimate that even if the east and south are slightly better, it will just change from fishing in the marsh to harvesting on time. And it has been ten years now. The power groups there have probably been stable for a long time. Even if we defected in the past, it would be difficult to make decisions.  In the center, it is better to start over.

    what about you?  What do you think?  "

    Although Alxa is not a local, he has lived here for many years and has long regarded this as his second hometown, so he is naturally willing to choose the second option mentioned by Zhang Dou.

    Although it is a little more difficult to be the master of your own country and set up another one, it is better than defecting to someone else.

    ¡°At least you don¡¯t have to rely on anyone else.

    Look at other people¡¯s faces.

    And they can implement their ideas and policies naturally without having to convince others.

    Zhang Yun, Zhang Shi and Zhang Hui have long been accustomed to listening to the words of the two big brothers, and they have lived with each other for more than ten years. How could they not know Zhang Dou's true thoughts, so they all nodded without hesitation and expressed their opinions.  Agree.

    ¡°In this case, let¡¯s recover the bandits near our hometown first, and seize the time to restore regional production as soon as possible. Then, as grandma said, we will accumulate food and slowly become king.

    ??Start from the mountain king and take your time.  "

    Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhang Dou immediately started talking about the next step, planning to start small and grow food. In this chaotic world, food is the real hard currency.

    As long as there is enough food and they are not too ostentatious in the early stage, they can definitely raise an army quickly, and as long as the food is sufficient, the quality of the army will naturally improve quickly.

    Therefore, farming and accumulating grain is a top priority.

    "Well, let's go back now and defeat all the mountain bandits who robbed us before, and then integrate them all."

    ¡°Hey, don¡¯t worry.

    ¡°There are still horses and knives here. It¡¯s not too late for us to put these things away before we go.  "

    After two or three sentences of discussion, the five of them quickly got down from the cattle and began to pick up the corpses. After picking up the corpses, they specially found a lot of firewood and burned all the corpses of the soldiers to prevent them from rotting in place and looking back.  Breeding plague.

    Wait until these things are done.

    The leftovers were mixed with ashes and buried.

    They then sat back on the back of the ox, driving the horses slowly and leisurely.They walked back to the places where they had been robbed before, and began to clean up one by one and gather people.

    I have been working hard for more than half a month.

    They finally officially established a mountain village on the largest mountain nearby. At the same time, they took the bandits who were subdued by them, as well as the bandits who had their legs broken and were picked up again, to officially start.  Farming.

    In fact, the nearby mountain bandits were originally ordinary villagers. It was just because they couldn't live a good life and the things they planted in the fields were not enough to be robbed by the rebels, so they became bandits. Moreover, they also  They only come down occasionally to rob, and most of the time they live in the mountains and continue farming. Although the land in the mountains is barren, it is still remote, and there is no need to worry about the insurgents coming up to snatch the food they grow.

    Therefore, after they found out that Zhang Dou had subdued them, they still let them farm, and even taught them to farm, and gave them some very plump grain seeds that looked like they would have a good harvest. How could they resist?  They all followed them obediently and started farming in the mountains. At the same time, they also organized self-defense teams to farm at the foot of the mountains. Anyway, they farmed everywhere.

    As the reputation of their cottage farming gradually spread, the surrounding mountain people who had no choice but to become bandits, or who were still hiding around, secretly planting a piece here and a piece there, all became attached to them.

    No need to even hit.

    They delivered it to their door themselves.

    After the news that the first batch of potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn and other crops could produce a thousand kilograms per mu, or even nearly ten thousand kilograms, under Zhang Dou's operation, secretly spread to some nearby cottages hundreds of miles away, it would be even more important.  The leader of Shaoshan Village came with all the villagers, young and old, to join him.

    At the same time, I also want to ask for some grain seeds.

    Of course, there are those who want to join them to pray for grain, and of course there are those who want to rob them by force. However, Zhang Dou and the others did not forget to train their young men while they were farming, so those who want to rob them are destined to become the ones who kill the chickens and scare the monkeys.  That chicken.

    With those people as a warning.

    Zhang Dou's so-called win-win cooperation, and his proposal to join forces with others to farm, and to find ways to train and organize young people to resist the rebels, were soon rejected by the nearby village owners who were nominally the owners of the village, but were actually members of the original village.  The village chiefs agreed, and the most primitive rural collective planting cooperative base was established.

    A spark that starts a prairie fire.

    Also lit at this moment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
