Seeing that the problem was solved, Fu Ying said goodbye to Tang Jian and rode away from the station.

For him, this trip still achieved his desired purpose.

Although he felt painful to exchange the 2,500 combat-capable soldiers of his own army for 5,000 pirates, it was still within his tolerance.

After all, if the soldiers were gone, they could be recruited and trained again in the future, but if Sun Quan was not served well, there would be no future.

After Lu Xiaocao finished making tea, she knocked on the ground with a wooden stick and went to help in the armor workshop.

The wind blew from the river, blowing up her dress.

Her thin body was a little strained by the wind.

At this moment, a warm hand held her.

Then, it was Tang Jian's gentle voice:

"Xiaocao, the armor workshop is not short of people, so it doesn't need to be so busy."

"Go back and take a rest."

Lu Xiaocao knew it was Tang Jian, and her heart was warmed immediately. She said with a red face:

"Sir, I'm not tired."

"Compared to picking mulberry and weaving cloth at home before, it's much easier now."

Lu Xiaocao always speaks simply.

But there is a most simple emotion.

Tang Jian asked again: "I have been busy teaching people how to make iron knives these two days. I haven't visited your mother for two days. How is the old lady's health recovering?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiaocao happily said to Tang Jian:

"My mother said that she has recovered 70% to 80% and can move normally, but she still has occasional numbness and pain."

Tang Jian nodded and said:

"That's good. In the future, you still have to follow the method I told you, once in the morning and once in the evening, and persist in treatment."

"Only in this way can it be eradicated."

Lu Xiaocao nodded and said:

"Okay, Xiaocao remembers it."

Tang Jian asked again: "Then do you still want to go to the armor workshop now?"

Lu Xiaocao nodded and said: "It's still early now. I can still go to the workshop to help for two hours."

Tang Jian did not object to her, so he said: "Okay, then I will hold your hand and you follow me."

After hearing this, Lu Xiaocao's face became redder.

He lowered his head and made an imperceptible "hmm".

Then he followed Tang Jian step by step to the armor workshop.

After agreeing to exchange soldiers with Fu Ying, Tang Jian immediately started to screen quietly.

Those who were strong, loyal and willing to work were separated and secretly transferred to important positions.

And those stubborn people who still had bandit spirits and those who were just trying to make a living were gathered together, and people were sent to spread the word that Fu Ying was recruiting people to be soldiers for Wu Hou in Jiangdong.

As long as they arrived at Wu Hou's place, they would be regular Jiangdong soldiers, with three meals a day, doubled salary, and official prostitutes coming to entertain the soldiers regularly.

After a lot of deception, many people expressed their willingness to follow Fu Ying to join Sun Quan that afternoon.

Tang Jian stepped up his offensive and announced the news in person the next day.

However, he was vague about the three meals a day, doubled salary, and official prostitutes entertaining the soldiers, which were the points that the water bandits were very concerned about.

Just said: "If the battle is fought well, there will be."

It's OK if there is!

The bandits were overwhelmed by the beautiful vision and didn't care about the prerequisites of Tang Jian.

They expressed their willingness to follow Fu Ying to Jianye and surrender to Sun Quan.

Tang Jian immediately ordered people to register and counted that there were 5,461 people.

Although there were 461 more, what's the point of forcing people to stay here just because of a few words of deception?

Moreover, after this screening, more than 1,800 loyal and hardworking elite soldiers were selected. These people can become elite with a little training.

Together with Fu Ying's 2,500 troops, they can have more than 4,000 troops.

Although the number of people is small, the quality has made a qualitative leap!

All of them are elite soldiers who can fight.

In this way, the combat effectiveness of the corps is guaranteed.

With these elite soldiers as the standard, plus Lu Kuang's training, his team will become more and more combat-effective in the future.

Only when the fighting power is stronger can he get more benefits in the next Battle of Red Cliff.

At that time, no matter who he negotiates with, he will have more bargaining chips.

On the third day.

Fu Ying brought his men to hand over on time.

Because he was worried that the water bandits would be difficult to control, he brought 4,000 people with him.

Two thousand and five were handed over to Tang Jian, and the other 1,500 were responsible for supervising these water bandits, fearing that they would not obey the control and cause trouble temporarily.

But what he never expected was that as soon as Fu Ying arrived, these people burst into warm cheers.

Then they enthusiastically joined Fu Ying's army, and the crowd was excited, and they expressed their willingness to follow Fu Ying to Jianye as soldiers.

This scene made Fu Ying dumbfounded.

Tang Jian came to Fu Ying with a smile, handed a list to Fu Ying, and said:

"How is it? General Fu. "

"I have done ideological work for you. I can guarantee that there will be no trouble on the way."

"And the number of personnel is also over the quota, a total of 5,461 people, all of whom have been registered, and the list is here."

There will definitely be no trouble on the way, but whether there will be trouble when we get to Sun Quan, that's hard to say.

But we will have an excuse at that time.

Just say that we have the ability to send people to you, and you, Sun Quan, have no ability to manage, so what face do you have to scream here?

Seeing this scene, Fu Ying was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Tang Jiandao:

"I thought these people had been bandits for a long time and were unwilling to be disciplined."

"I didn't expect Jianming to make them obedient and even make a list, which saved me a lot of trouble."

"To show my gratitude, I decided to transfer four more centurion generals to help you, Jianming, train the soldiers. "

Tang Jian listened, smiled and bowed:

"Give and take, put yourself in others' shoes, this is how business should be done."

Fu Ying agreed with Tang Jian's words very much:

"It is a pleasure to meet a partner like Jianming."

Then he took out a list and handed it to Tang Jian:

"These are my 2,500 troops, who have followed me in battle for many years."

"They are all Danyang children, with strict military discipline and bravery."

"If it is not a last resort, I really can't bear to send them away."

"Today they have transferred to Jianming's command. I hope you can make good use of them and don't neglect them."

Tang Jian said: "General Fu, what are you talking about? How can I neglect my subordinates?"

Fu Ying smiled rarely, held the list and bowed:

"Then, you and I will exchange troops, and each of us will pursue our own future."

"Goodbye!"

Tang Jian: "Goodbye! "

Fu Ying packed up his men and horses, and immediately left the mercenary camp and headed straight for Jianye.

Tang Jian looked at the 2,500 elite soldiers on the parade ground with a satisfied smile on his face.

Four centurion generals were now in front, and said to Tang Jian in unison:

"The 2,500 Danyang soldiers are here, please check them out!"

Tang Jian was very happy and said:

"The army is well-organized and their eyes are like torches."

"They are indeed elite soldiers."

"Since you have joined me, Tang Jian, I promise you that you will not regret your choice today!"

"Today, each of you will receive a month's salary, and then follow me to fight in the north and south and make achievements!"
