Zhang Caitong's housekeeper went to Li Baihu with a silver ticket and wanted him to send troops, but Li Baihu heard that hundreds of bandits were attacking Zhangjia Village, so he shook his head and refused.

Although he is a hundred, there are a few soldiers under him who can be used, others don't know, will he, the boss, not know? Over the years, Li Baihu has eaten half of his empty salary, and now there are less than twenty soldiers left under his name, and they are old and crippled, so if they go to fight bandits like this, aren't they looking for death! Take an egg like him and hit a bandit stone.

immediately rejected the request to send troops, and no matter how much money there was, he would not go, otherwise he would have his life to take the money and not to spend it.

The housekeeper left in despair, and when he reached the halfway point, he met the people who had escaped from Zhangjia Village, knowing that Zhangjia Village had been breached and the master had been caught.

The housekeeper doesn't dare to go back now, what else can he do when he goes back as a housekeeper, go to death! Desperate with bandits?

With the last trace of loyalty to Zhang Caitong, the housekeeper rushed to the county seat, spent 50 taels of silver, and reported to the government the news that Zhangjia Village was attacked by bandits, and then there was no more.

At this time, the county official didn't care about the news of the destruction of a Zhangjia Village.

Since Maoming County is located in the southern part of the Ming Dynasty, after a month, the bad news finally came from Beiping, Li Zicheng broke through Beiping, and today Zizi hanged himself.

The whole world is in chaos, in this case, the bandits have broken through a village the size of a sesame seed, is the county official still in the mood to care!

When Wei Yuanshan heard such news, his whole person felt like falling into an ice cave. When he came to his senses, he immediately called someone to pack up his belongings and prepare to leave Maoming County, he came from other places to be an official, and he scraped a few layers of ground in this county, which offended many people, and now he doesn't want to stay in the local area for a moment, and he feels safe when he leaves early.

Heaven is like a joke, in the north, when a huge regime ruling China fell, in the south of China, in an unknown place, a new regime was born.

Since its birth, this regime has made clear its political goals, what is yours is mine, and what is mine is still mine.

……

A few days later, Zijian looked at the news collected by Li Xian, the imperial city of the Ming Dynasty was breached, and Li Zicheng entered Beiping.

Zijian was silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.

……

Zijian's expected government came to suppress the bandits, but it didn't happen, because Li Xi told him that the county magistrate had run away, and because there was no one to preside over it, and the news of Beiping spread, the county town was in chaos.

"Chief, there are no soldiers and horses in the county now, should we kill them!"

Li Xi was excited, if he won the county seat again, it would be so beautiful.

Zijian was speechless, just rely on those guys under him, oh, it's the Volunteers, Zijian officially changed his name to the Volunteers, and those guys will manage the county! Don't laugh.

The number of volunteers was 165, not including a few of Zijian's cronies.

After two days of recuperation, the volunteers' faces improved, at least not as yellow and thin as they did at the beginning.

"Assemble!"

Zijian shouted, and the people who were resting under the tree quickly ran over and gathered into 11 columns.

"Stand upright."

"Look ahead!"

"Look to the left!"

"Look ahead!"

"Count!"

“1，2，3，…… 16。 ”

Don't look at this very simple queue, later generations of primary school students can complete it, but after the volunteers have eaten enough in the past two days, they are specifically practicing this, and at the beginning, many volunteers can't tell the difference between left and right.

After Zijian tried a few times, he found that there were still many volunteers who were not divided between left and right, so he called out the volunteers who couldn't distinguish between left and right, and more than half of the guys' left hands were swollen by Zijian with whips, and then as long as they were not fools, they knew what left and what right.

The hand that hurts to make people cry is left, and the hand that doesn't hurt is right, if you can't tell the difference, then get out as soon as possible, it turns out that Zijian's method is simple and effective.

You see, now the volunteers are doing a good job under Zijian's orders!

Zijian: "Okay, now I'm quite satisfied with your reaction, my brother whose hand is throbbing from me, if you don't accept it, there will be a steady stream of people coming in the future, you can retaliate like this in the future, of course, if you want to retaliate against me, you can challenge me." I'm here to help. ”

"Haha!"

"Haha!"

The volunteers laughed when Zijian said, thinking that he would bully the newcomer in the future, of course, he would not do such a stupid thing to challenge the chief, and the battle process of the previous chief was not unknown, challenge the chief, you tease me!

Zijian raised his hand, and the volunteers quieted down.

"Now, I will teach you the iron order of the first Volunteers, which is: yours is mine, mine is mine. In the future, other people's things will be ours, what if they don't give them. ”

Li Shi shouted loudly, "Kill!" ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Zijian raised his hand and signaled, "Okay, it seems that you have understood my requirements, I can guarantee that in the future, everyone will follow me, get promoted and make a fortune, and marry more than a dozen mothers-in-law, do you want to." ”

"Yes!"

Zijian: "What, I can't hear it. ”

Again, the Volunteers shouted "Yes!" ”

Zijian pretended not to hear clearly, "What are you talking about!" ”

"Yes!" This time, the volunteers shouted out with the loudest voice, their faces were red!

Zijian: "Okay, this is my soldier, let's start the first mandatory task and cut my hair!" ”

Zijian looked at the stupid volunteers, "If you don't want to cut your hair, it's okay, then quit the volunteers immediately, but I want to tell you that in the future, if you are promoted and make a fortune, more than a dozen mothers-in-law will not have your share, and those who can't eat enough every day and want to quit will come out by themselves." ”

Zijian used some spreading and selling techniques, first using promotions to make a fortune, women as temptations, and then looking at the rice eaten in the past two days, three meals a day, so as to attract volunteers, in this kind of excitement, no one left.

Zijian's mysterious smile, the loud shout of the volunteers just now, is in the stage of excitement, and when this excitement passes, the hair is cut, even if you regret it, how can you drop it! can still fight with himself, Zijian is like a little fox who has stolen a chicken.

A few people came over with scissors and quickly cut the hair of the volunteers.

Zijian spent his strength to let the volunteers cut their hair is also helpless, in ancient times, the body was paid attention to, and the parents could not cut the hair, but it was definitely not a good thing for the soldiers to have long hair, and it was not good for the battle and hygiene.

Zijian: "Okay, now everyone is a brother, Li Shi!" ”

"Here, chief."

Zijian: "Let's go Mai and shoes for everyone, and gather in a quarter of an hour." ”

"Yes, chief, all of them, turn left, run, walk."

Zijian waited for a while, and the volunteers who had changed into sackcloth gathered in front of him.

The volunteers wore uniform linen clothes, cloth shoes on their feet, and scarves on their heads, which they would change into hats when they had the opportunity.

The entire volunteer army finally looked like they had some military appearance, standing neatly, and there was a kind of momentum invisibly.

Zijian: "Look at you, now you look like a person, before, you were like a ghost, look at the present, after you go out, you can proudly tell others that you are a volunteer, who dares to laugh at you, then use your knife to talk to him." At noon, kill two fat pigs, everyone eats to their heart's content, and disbands. ”

Zijian saluted before leaving, this is his army, Zijian first abolished the kneeling salute, that is, to see him, as long as a military salute is fine, if his soldiers dare to kneel to him, see if Zijian will break their legs.

Li Xi looked at the volunteers who looked like them, and his admiration for the chief was like a surging river, endless. In just two days, those lazy tenants were trained so well by the chief, Li Xian dared to bet that if the volunteers were trained to attack the original cottage, the owner of Zhang Zhai would only have to flee for his life.
