Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 8 Governing Shanzhai
Entering the cottage, Zhao Lei was stunned. Isn't this the legendary Xanadu?Surrounded by mountains and rivers, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant.If Zhou Cang hadn't told him that this place was a cottage, Zhao Lei would really think that this place is a quiet small village!The environment here reminds Zhao Lei of the poems in Tao Yuanming, a great poet of the Eastern Jin Dynasty: "The fragrant grass is delicious, and the falling flowers are colorful", or in Fan Zhongyan's Yueyang Tower: "The long smoke is clear, the bright moon is thousands of miles away, and the floating light leaps into gold. , the still shadow sinks the wall".Zhao Lei thought to himself, if he could live in seclusion for a lifetime in this kind of place, it would be a delicacy.

However, Zhao Lei soon lost his fantasy, because he saw many people with big knives walking towards him.

"My lord." It turned out that those people were also young people in the cottage, and they were not worshiping Zhao Lei, but Zhou Cang.

"I am no longer your king. Starting from today, Brother Zhao Lei standing next to me is your king. His martial arts is better than mine. From now on, we will live under the leadership of Brother Zhao." Zhou Cangtiao Get off the saddle and stand behind Zhao Lei.

"See the new great king." All the people said respectfully, and they were not surprised. In ancient times, the masters of the cottage were all respected by martial arts.

"Brother Zhou Cang, you called all the people in the village here. I have something to say. And Zilong sent twenty brothers from our side to release all the people who were detained earlier, and take them here. , I want to count the number of people." Zhao Lei said as he walked towards a high ground in the cottage.

"Yes, my subordinate obeys the order." After getting the order, everyone went to carry out the order.

"The rest of the people sit down where they are and take a rest. I have something to say when everyone is here." Zhao Lei said, because of the two hours of walking ahead, his feet hurt like hell, and he sat down on the ground.

After a while, Zhang Han rushed to the cottage.He saw Zhao Lei sitting on a high ground, with a group of people sitting below, some from his own family, some bandits, he knew everything, walked towards Zhao Lei with a smile, and sat down too.

"Is everything going well?" Zhang Han asked when he sat down.

"Well, no one was lost, and Zhou Cang was successfully conquered, so this village has also surrendered." Zhao Lei said.

"It seems that there are at least several hundred people in this cottage. The harvest this time is not small. Have you counted the money and food?" Zhang Han asked.

"I also just arrived, now let Zhou Cang and Zhao Yun call all the people in the cottage, and then ask about the situation!" Zhao Lei said.

"I'm exhausted after walking all the way. The road in ancient times is completely incomparable with modern times!" Zhang Han complained to Zhao Lei in a low voice.

"I feel the same way." Zhao Lei made a grimace at Zhang Han, and the young man sitting below had no idea what kind of riddle the two were playing.At this time, there were more and more people in the open space, Zhou Cang called out all the people in the village.

After Zhao Lei and Zhang Han chatted for more than two hours, Zhao Yun finally brought the bandits who had been imprisoned to the village.In addition, Zhou Cang called out all the people in the cottage.At a glance, there are probably more than 500 people gathered in this open space.

Zhao Lei stood up at this moment, looking down at so many people, he was so happy!
"See Your Majesty." Zhou Cang shouted loudly.

"See you, Your Majesty." Some of them obviously didn't know what was going on, but when they saw Zhou Cang yelling that, they yelled along with others.

"Hi brothers, let me introduce myself. My name is Zhao Lei, and my name is Zihan. I am from Yangzhou. Today, I met your original big brother Zhou Cang and became brothers. Not much else to say, today I am the I can't guarantee anything else, but I guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, eat delicious food and drink spicy food, and live a happy life forever." Zhao Lei's scene has been brewing for a long time.

"Good! Good! Good!" Everyone shouted three times.

Zhao Lei waved his hand, and everyone quieted down consciously.

"From today onwards, you don't need to call me the king, you don't need to call me the lord, you are all my subordinates." Zhao Lei said.

"See my lord." Everyone changed their mouths.

"Brother Zhou Cang, you are still in charge of this cottage. You are still the owner of this cottage. If there is any situation, just report to me. However, I want to change the rules of your cottage." Zhao Lei said to Zhou Cang.

"Follow my lord's orders." Zhou Cang clasped his fists, waiting for Zhao Lei to give orders.

Zhao Lei went on to say: "These two are my sworn brothers. This is my second brother Zhang Han, named Zizhou, and also my military advisor. This is my third brother, Zhao Yun, named Zilong. I believe many People probably already know my third brother, and may have had conflicts with him. But starting today, everyone is not an enemy, but a brother of their own. No one should turn over old accounts. Seeing my second and third brothers is like seeing my brother. I'm the same, understand?"

"Everything is to be obeyed by the lord." Everyone said in unison.

Zhao Lei knew that there had been several conflicts between Zhaojiacun and these bandits before this, and what he said today was to ease this conflict.But Zhao Lei also knows that this grievance cannot be disintegrated in a day or two.However, he is confident that he will be able to unite his subordinates. As the saying goes: "Only when you are inside can you fight against outsiders!"

A person hiding in the cottage silently watched the situation outside.He observed Zhao Lei's every move since entering the cottage, including his appearance, what he said, and what he did.After reading it, the man closed the window carefully, and there was a strange look in his eyes, but it was fleeting.

"This person is not a fish in a pond. He is the one who messes up the world. I don't know if he is Bole. I hope I can use what I have learned." The man thought to himself.

"Brother Zhou Cang, how much food does this cottage have?" Zhang Han asked.

"Return to the military division. At present, there are ten catties of gold and eighty catties of silver in the village. But they are all shady official silver. The money is [-], and the grain is [-] shi." Zhou Cang replied.

"Did all this money be snatched from the common people?" Zhao Yun interrupted and asked.

"Yes." Zhou Cang showed displeasure.

After listening to Zhou Cang's words, Zhao Lei said: "Brother Zhou Cang, and all the brothers. I have a request. Starting today, you are not allowed to rob the common people. This is the first order I give you as your master." You can rob some money from the rich and unkind or corrupt officials, but you are not allowed to rob the common people of their money and food, which are all their hard-earned money. Do you understand?"

"But my lord, oh my lord, how could we rob so many rich people and high officials? If we don't rob the common people, how can we survive." said the little boy behind Zhoucang.

"What's your name?" Zhao Lei asked.

"The younger one is called Pei Yuanshao."

"Pei Yuanshao, I seem to have heard of this person in the Three Kingdoms. It seems that he appeared during the Yellow Turban Uprising. He was killed by Zhao Yun later." Zhao Lei thought.

"Pull it down, hit five sticks. Because you are talking nonsense. I allow you to question my order, but it must be a correct question, and you can't say something absurd. Don't you think it's very fair to rob the people? From this point of view, I will not allow you to challenge my principles." Zhao Lei said.

Pei Yuanshao was dragged down by several people and beaten five times, which was regarded as a small punishment and a major punishment, so he stopped talking.

"I want you to remember one thing. In the whole world, the first to suffer is not you, but these ordinary people. What's more, bandits are also ordinary people, and there is no distinction between high and low. So I emphasize again, starting today, you can rob , but it must be robbing the rich and helping the poor, not taking things from the common people, understand?" Zhao Lei shouted.

"Understood, my lord." With Pei Yuanshao's precedent just now, no one dared to say a word.

"Zhou Cang, how do you distribute the money from robbery?" Zhao Lei asked Zhou Cang because he knew nothing about robbery.

"Brothers will share [-]%, and the rest will be stored in the warehouse of the cottage, to buy food and clothes for the winter, treat the wounded, and bury the brothers who died in the robbery." Zhou Cang said.

"Okay, starting today, I will give you [-]% of the money for every unscrupulous profiteer or villain you rob." Zhao Lei said.

"Fifty percent? I heard that right." Everyone was discussing.

"I haven't finished my sentence yet," Zhao Lei said.

The crowd quieted down.

"But I have a condition. I must help the people in the surrounding villages five days a month. Can you agree?" Zhao Lei said.

"Promise!!!" Everyone replied, and the reward was increased by [-]% all of a sudden, even if they help the people, it's nothing, everyone thought in their hearts.

"One more thing, do you know why you couldn't beat the people in Zhao Village before?" Zhao Lei asked.

The crowd shook their heads.

"Because for the past month, they have carried out devil training according to my training plan every day, so everyone is physically strong. If you want to become stronger, you must also train every day. Can you do it?" Zhao Lei asked.

"can."

Now that everyone agreed, Zhao Lei also asked these bandits to do those two movements 1000 times, and immediately started training.

While they were training, Zhao Lei asked Zhou Cang, "Why didn't you see that scholar?"

"My lord, I didn't call him out because he is not from our cottage." Zhou Cang replied.

"Then take me to see him!" Zhao Lei said.

"My lord, please." Zhou Cang led the way.

"Second brother, come with me. Zilong is here to supervise them to finish today's training before they can rest." Zhao Lei said.

"No." Zhao Yun said.

Who is the mysterious person in that hut?
