The eighth day of the third month.

After the early dynasty.

Li Yi once again gained 19 points of Faith Power, and his Faith Power reached a total of 41.4.

The reason why the harvest was a little less than yesterday was because the White Horse Gang cavalry who left yesterday did not come back.

The migration of the entire White Horse Gang is not a trivial matter, but many supplies are not good luck, and those departing White Horse Gang cavalry as escorts did not come back.

This information has been transmitted back by the intelligence officers of Black Wind Village through carrier pigeons.

This time, the entire White Horse Gang, with a total of about 400 people, was merged into the Black Wind Village.

Fortunately, Heifeng Village has always had the habit of building houses when there is nothing to do, and there is no problem with so many people to settle down.

On this day, Heifeng Village sent troops to Black Tiger Village.

Originally, Li Yi didn't think of the idea of hitting the surrounding cottages so early, since the Black Tiger Village had planted spies in their cottages, then don't blame him for being polite.

This time, Li Yi did not go, but sent the military advisor Zhao Ergou to follow.

Zhao Ergou's brain is still very active, the Black Tiger Village is just a small cottage, the strength is comparable to the original Black Wind Village, but there may not be fifty combatants, and there may not be one intermediate, so there should be no problem for Zhao Ergou to deal with it, and you can also train this person's military ability.

At noon on the ninth day of the first month of March.

Zhao Ergou brought people back.

There was no accident, and all the people in the Black Tiger Village brought it back.

There were eighty-nine people in total.

As Li Yi had expected, there were only more than 40 combatants in the entire Black Tiger Village, nine junior bandits, none intermediate bandits, and the others were all unqualified bandits.

Li Yi selected a total of 25 people to enter the Black Wind Village, and the rest were handled by the logistics personnel.

It takes an average of about 100 days for a person to provide Li Yi with a little power of faith, and to promote an unqualified person to a junior person, at least a little bit of power of faith is consumed, which is destined to make it impossible for Li Yi to let most people use the power of faith.

In addition, the soldiers are not expensive, and no matter how many people there are in a rabble, a small number of elites will collapse in one rush, and he will have to waste a lot of his faith to heal his injuries, unless he can sit back and watch the wounded die.

Therefore, Li Yi tried his best to select absolute young and strong people to enter the Black Wind Village combat personnel, and even, some small number of young and strong, but with other professional talents, Li Yi was classified as logistics personnel.

Logistics personnel cannot all be old and weak, women and children, and young and strong personnel also have their advantages, just like blacksmiths.

In the afternoon of the same day, the White Horse Gang came one after another.

It was not until the afternoon of the 10th day of the first month of March that the White Horse Gang came, a total of 393 people, all kinds of supplies, food, iron tools, bows and arrows, etc., in addition to the previous more than 150 horses, there were more than 20 horses, more than 3,000 taels of silver, more than 2,000 copper coins, and 11 taels of gold.

Let Heifeng Village not talk about getting rich, but it can be regarded as a small rich.

The population of Heifeng Village also exceeded two thousand at once.

On the same day, Li Yi obtained 23 points of faith power, plus the faith power obtained one after another in the past few days, and some of them were consumed daily, and Li Yi's faith power reached a total of 83.6 points.

"The White Horse Gang has been crisscrossing the Hengling Mountains for more than ten years, and it only has five or six thousand taels of silver?" Juyi Hall, looking at the list, Li Yi was slightly surprised.

The White Horse Gang is not a small force, but it is rated as a third-rate force by Qinglongzhai, and the scope of looting is also very large, in addition, the White Horse Gang is very mobile, and often draws some caravans' money before other forces react.

Therefore, the income of the White Horse Gang is not low.

Li Dadao told him this at that time.

On the surface, the White Horse Gang is only a third-rate force, but in terms of income, among the third-rate forces, it is also relatively rich!

According to the information released by Qinglongzhai last time, the third-rate forces have to pay 1,000 taels of silver to Qinglongzhai every year!

With such a high commission, how can the income of the White Horse Gang be less?

"Emperor Qi, Shi Hu has absolutely no hidden secrets, but the annual consumption of the White Horse Gang is also very large, in recent years, the annual income of the White Horse Gang has reached about 8,000 taels of silver, but the White Horse Gang has to consume about 2,000 taels of silver every year when people eat horses."

"The people of the White Horse Gang are all elites, in terms of food, they consume a lot, those horses are also good horses, they dare not be a little slack on weekdays, the food of one horse is as good as the food consumption of two White Horse Gang members, and the food consumption of five or six ordinary people."

"In addition to all kinds of equipment, horses are purchased, a good long knife costs more than ten taels of silver, a good bow is also more than ten taels of silver, an ordinary horse is more than thirty taels of silver, and our White Horse Gang This kind of good horse costs seventy or eighty taels of silver, and the high-grade horse that was once captured by the emperor cost three hundred and fifty taels of silver."

"Coupled with the money given to Qinglongzhai every year, after all kinds of consumption, the White Horse Gang can only have one or two thousand taels of silver left every year, and it happens to buy some horses and weapons during this time."

Deng Shihu hurriedly shouted.

He didn't say that the White Horse Gang bought horses and weapons precisely to deal with the Black Wind Village.

Unexpectedly, after a battle, it was defeated.

More than ten years of foundation have been in vain.

On the way back, Deng Shihu was also very entangled in his heart for a while, as the saying goes, it is human nature to be the head of a chicken rather than the tail of a phoenix.

He thought back and forth about choosing to surrender to the Black Wind Village or break away from the Black Wind Village.

There are so many materials, which are accumulated for more than ten years.

Most of the cavalry that Li Yi sent them back were the original people of their White Horse Gang, and many of them were people he had brought with him for many years.

However, he quickly gave up such an idea.

Because, he secretly observed those people in their White Horse Gang, and found that many people showed excitement in their eyes.

He knew exactly what that look meant.

In addition, the strength of Li Ling and his party ...... Li Ling's strength, the last time they went to Qinglong Village, they saw that there were several people around Li Ling, and there were also a few people who were there at the time, and he knew that these people were very strong.

In addition, those members of the White Horse Gang who looked excited, can he really take him out of the Black Wind Village?

He had no faith.

Even if it is barely done, the rest of the people are at most twenty or thirty people, and there are so many elites missing, even if you add the people from the White Horse Gang's lair, the remaining strength of the White Horse Gang is only four or five at most.

However, they offended the mysterious existence of Black Wind Village, so they will be better off in the future?

After analyzing the pros and cons, Deng Shihu finally gave up this idea and worked wholeheartedly for Heifeng Village.

And most importantly...... Li Yi's magical means, the background depicted, let him also see a kind of hope!

Open up a new dynasty, once successful, he is the patriarch of the dynasty, he does things well, and it is not impossible to be crowned a marquis and worship the general!

The establishment of the Great Shang Dynasty for 100 years has proved that bandits can never become a crest, and there is a possibility of destruction at any time, but if they become generals, they can be passed on forever and glorify their ancestors!

All the supplies, he really didn't detain!
