At this time, Ma Wu was so frightened that his eyes closed, thinking that he was done, the nursing home was not done, and he took his life first, and everyone was also shocked. Just as the steel knife was about to stick to his scalp, Ma Wu was pushed away, and at the same time, a big hand tightly grasped Niu Erdan's wrist holding the knife.

Everyone saw that it was Xu Tangyi who interviewed them today. Niu Erdan was grabbed by the wrist, and the steel knife stopped motionless in mid-air. At this time, Xu Tangyi's right leg was lifted upward, Niu Erdan's wrist that was grabbed was knocked down, and the steel hair fell to the ground. Immediately afterward, his arm was pushed backwards, and he fell to the ground with his hands and feet facing the ground.

Xu Tangyi's face was full of anger, his tiger eyes spewed fire, and he scolded angrily: "You kid is too unauthentic, you can afford to compare, if you are not as good as others, you can afford to lose, what kind of hero is a weapon used?" Get lost! ”

Niu Erdan knew that he had met a master today, so he didn't dare to squeak when he got up, and walked away. At the same time, he whispered in his mouth: "The surname is He, you wait for me, when you look good." There is no place to stay here! ”

After Niu Erdan was driven away, Xu Tangyi said to Ma Wu appreciatively: "You kid is so agile, who can you learn from?" ”

Ma Wu hurriedly thanked him: "Lord Xie came to the rescue." I was hunting and training in the mountains, and I could deal with three or four horse monkeys alone (author's note: horse monkey Juzhou dialect, meaning wolf. Until now, the people of Ju County and Junan County are called like this. ）。 ”

"Yes, let's go over there and get the sign."

"Hey" Ma Wu happily agreed and walked towards He Zhiyuan.

After an afternoon of interviews, about ten more remained. At the end of the day, a total of 27 nurses were recruited.

In the evening, Xu Tangyi and his son sat in He Shaoyun's house, frowning, Xu Tangyi said to He Shaoyun and his son: "Brother He, only twenty-seven were recruited today, which is far from a hundred." The young men in these ten miles and eight villages are basically on the construction site. There aren't so many people who only look for martial arts, do we have to surrender our requirements? ”

"Yes, if you recruit according to this request, you won't be able to recruit for a month." He Shaoyun replied.

He Zhiyuan didn't expect this to be the result, he remembered that in the Wanli period of later generations, Qi Jiguang recruited troops in Zhejiang, which was much more demanding than this, and it could reach more than 5,000 people. There are too few martial arts people in Juzhou, and there is not enough publicity. But there is no way, now the influence of the He family is too small, and they can only recruit in these ten miles and eight villages.

He thought that Ma Wu would be good today. Then he said: "Today I see that Orion is good, tomorrow I will find some people, go to the east of the mountains, put up notices in the villages, and I may be able to find a suitable one among the Orions." After all, these hunters hunt in the mountains all year round, and although they don't know martial arts, they are agile and quick to react. They are all good seedlings for home care. There is also more to inquire about those who have been military households before, as long as they are about the same, they can also reduce the requirements. But those ruffians and scheming people resolutely can't ask for it. ”

"Well, that's a good idea. When that Ma Wu came, I also told him that there was a suitable one in their village, and those who were willing to come would also bring it. ”

Three days later, the interview was conducted again, and this time nearly 200 people came at once. The four of them were busy for three days before they completed the interview and gathered enough 100 family members.

While busy with interviews in the past few days, He Zhiyuan also discussed with his father to prepare clothes for these family members. My father also understands this, and the family members of large families are all dressed in green clothes. But He Zhiyuan said that I saw a kind of clothing that was more suitable for soldiers in that strange book, and the book said that the cloth of the clothes was thick, and the color was dark green and brown mottled. It is very suitable for wearing in mountains and jungles, easy to hide, and not easy to be discovered by enemies. Why not take this opportunity to find a tailor shop and try it out.

He Shaoyun hesitated for a moment and said: "This kind of clothes is too ostentatious and conspicuous, and it is too unconventional. The big families are cautious in recruiting families, and they don't dare to be too many in number, and all dynasties and dynasties have strict control over civilian armed forces, and if they don't get it right, they will be killed. In the Ming Dynasty, it was strictly forbidden for the people to have a large amount of armor, and if this kind of clothing was slandered by the villain, it would be a big crime to punish the nine clans. ”

After listening to this, He Zhiyuan understood his father's concerns. But he also understood that his father's caution was right. Now there is no care from the top, and there are too many people who are rash and out of line, which really attracts suspicion.

But it was not without workarounds, and then he said: "The cloth of the clothes is still made of thick coarse fabric, and the color is still cyan, but the style is slightly changed, which is more practical and easier to practice." After saying this, He Zhiyuan changed the topic and said: "Why don't my father and Uncle Zhou go to the county government to have a relationship and fight for some people's strong places." You are the chief of this area, and you have the duty to protect the villagers. ”

He Shaoyun said: "This is a way, I know a fellow in the yamen, he is the official of Jiupin. I have asked him to do things a few times, and he can still talk, so please ask him to say hello to the officer Yang in the barracks, maybe it will work. ”

After discussing with his father, He Zhiyuan found Xu Tangyi and Da Xu Zi and said: "Uncle, Da Xuzi, the family is almost recruited, and the training will start in two days, and the training items are ready?" ”

Xu Tangyi said excitedly: "Third nephew, you can rest assured about this." The stone locks, the stakes, and all kinds of weapons were ready. I know very well about this training, and training these bunnies is a clear way to do it. These bunnies are in good physical condition, so I will train them as a night guard in my Ming army, and after three months, I promise to train them into a crack squad. Father... Oh, uncle, I haven't enjoyed it for many years, and today I also trained these little bunnies to have fun! ”

He Zhiyuan looked at his excitement and didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm, so he said euphemistically: "I admire my uncle's ability and nephew very much. These stone locks, wooden stakes, and other tools are used to train strength and dexterity. Although our family is small in number, we must train them as an army, not only in strength and endurance, but also in obedience and organization. ”

"How is this obedience and organization trained?" Xu Tangyi was a little confused. Da Xu Zi was even more confused on the side, he was thinking, why has He Zhiyuan changed so much recently? These words have never been heard before. It seems that people who read books are different, if only I could read too.

"Uncle, I learned from the strange book in my dream that a new method of soldier training is called platoon training."

"Cohort training? Isn't it like a array? ”

"It's not quite the same as arraying." He Zhiyuan explained all the basic training subjects for modern soldiers.

"It's as simple as that?" Xu Tangyi asked in surprise.

"Uncle, don't look at these subjects as simple, but it's not easy to really train. It is not easy to be fast and quiet, and it takes a lot of hard work. ”

"Well, you're right, it looks simple, but it's hard to be consistent and fast with hundreds of people. Let's talk about the essentials of this action, let's try it today. ”

At that time, He Zhiyuan went to the field next to the official road with their father and son to demonstrate various actions to them. It is not a loss to people who are from the army, and they can fully grasp these action essentials by only telling them once and demonstrating them once, and they can do it more standard than He Zhiyuan. Then He Zhiyuan taught them the essentials of walking in unison, running and walking. Then they were taught push-ups and sit-ups.

Niu Erdan has felt humiliated since he failed in the last competition with Ma Wu, and he has not regretted his behavior of hurting people with a knife in anger, but has a grudge against the He family, and has been thinking about how to retaliate against the He family.

Niu Erdan's family lives in Taohuajian Village, which is in the mountains east of Hejia Village, and there are more than ten miles of mountain roads from Gehang Village. He has a bad reputation in the village, he is just a lazy and lazy scoundrel, and he follows the hooligans in the surrounding villages to dance with knives and sticks, and mess around for a while. But the family is still poor, and there is no way to make a living. Since I came back from the last interview, I have been bent on finding a job as a housekeeper.

finally let him wait until Xie Er, who had been together before. Xie Er is now a member of the Qi family in Juzhou City, and every time he returns to the village, he is arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant than his master.

In order to find a job in the Qi family, he carried two bottles of wine, wrapped two catties of beef and a few side dishes, and went to Xie Er's house. Asked Xie Er to drink a little wine, and when the wine was half-drunk, he begged with a shy face: "Brother Xie, you see that you are mixing well now, you want the wind to be windy, to be rainy, and to pull my brother, I am almost unable to eat now." Can you talk to Master Qi and recommend me to go to Master Qi's house to work? ”

"Master Qi's family hasn't heard of a shortage of people now, this thing is not easy to do." Xie Er said nonchalantly.

After Niu Erdan heard this, he was a little disappointed, but he still didn't give up and continued to beg: "Brother Xie, my good brother, you can help me and go talk to Master Qi." I've practiced it, and you know it. ”

"You don't want money, and people don't want it." Xie Er said contemptuously.

Niu Erdan's face was embarrassed for a while, but he still begged with a dead face.

Xie Er was annoyed, and said angrily: "In addition to martial arts, unless you have a place that people can use, I can talk to you, but do you have it?" ”

"Where to use it? Yes! Yes! I have. Then he put down his chopsticks and whispered in Xie Er's ear.

After Xie Er heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "If you have this way, it will be much easier." ”
