Zhang Bao shouted: "Folks, we are here to save you from the mountain, pick up the weapons on the ground and kill us down the mountain to meet the army under the mountain!" ”

At first, a few brave juniors picked up swords and guns to join the war group, and now when they heard that there was a large army, they all picked up their weapons and followed the Taihang Mountain warriors to the small village at the intersection.

The soldiers of Taihang Mountain quickly occupied Xiaozhai, at this time Yue Fei and others escorted Wang Shan up the mountain, Yang Jin couldn't help but sigh when he saw it, he couldn't imagine that such an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Niuhip Mountain was broken, and it was a matter of an instant.

Yang Jin and Wang Shan, who were tied up with five flowers, held their heads high, refused to bend their knees and knelt down, looking up at Yue Fei, who was sitting high on the chair of the Taishi of Niuhip Mountain. Wang Shan had seen Yue Fei's marksmanship and understood that he was also a young hero, so he pleaded: "Today, my two brothers were defeated in the hands of the hero, if I leave my brothers with their lives, what will the hero send in the future!" ”

Yue Fei quietly looked at the two of them and asked, "Why did the two of you gather in Niuhip Mountain?" ”

The hornless cow Yang Jin was reckless by nature, and said that Yue Fei wanted to settle the old account between the two of them, so he took advantage of the wine and shouted impatiently: "You doll is so strange to ask, don't you beg for a life in Niuhip Mountain, can you make our brothers wait for death?" The officials of the court cleverly set up a name to exploit it, and the people were extremely poor, where they had food and a place to live? We used the only flesh and blood we had on the battlefield to kill gold people to serve the country, and we were also put on a hat to destroy stability and take my head, what hope does this kind of court have, I Yang Jin was the first to oppose him! To tell you the truth, if my team in Niuhip Mountain grows, I will be the first to hit Bianjing, pull Zhao Huan Xiaoer off the dragon chair and ask him, the foreign Yi is raging, the people are miserable, is he, the emperor, qualified? If you want to kill or scrape, if grandpa snorts, he is not a hero! If you are the leader of the officers and soldiers, take your grandfather's head and ask for credit! ”

"Good man! I admire the man of the kind! ”

Yue Fei got up and walked towards the two, personally untied the rope and said, "To be honest, I am also very disappointed in this court, and if we have the opportunity to ask Zhao Huan together, whether he is qualified to be the emperor!" ”

The two of them got rid of it, and hurriedly arched their hands and said: "The grace of not killing today, and the spring will repay you in the future, dare to ask the hero's surname?" ”

Yue Fei smiled and said: "What kind of hero am I, my eldest brother Song is a real hero, in Xia Yue Fei, I have offended a lot today, I hope the two big brothers will forgive me!" ”

The two of them said again: "Hero Yue is too modest, with your wit and bravery, you must be a first-class hero." It should also be our Niuhip Mountain is prosperous, and you are a hero with both civil and military skills, from now on you are the big boss of Niuhip Mountain, and we are only the heroes of Yue! ”

Yue Fei smiled again: "It's just Niu Hip Mountain, how can I Yue Fei take it in my eyes." Don't hide it, I am a general of the autonomous region, and there are tens of thousands of generals like me in the autonomous region, which is not a big person. My eldest brother Song Gongming is the real hero, he has managed Liangshanbo to the current situation, which has embarrassed many heroes in the world. If the two of you are interested, follow me to the autonomous region to develop, it is like nesting in Niuhip Mountain to be sulking. ”

The two were overjoyed when they heard this, and both said that they were willing to go to the autonomous region. Yang Jin asked Wang Shan to lead the Niuhip Mountain brothers to go first, he went to his hometown Luoyang first, and he still had some suffering brothers, and brought them over.

Yue Fei and his entourage stayed in Niuhip Mountain for one night, and set off early the next day to rush to the autonomous region.

The reason why Yue Fei was asked to move was because Song Jiang wanted to select 30,000 light cavalry. Of the 30,000 light cavalry, 20,000 were selected in Taihang Mountain and 10,000 in the autonomous region. Each of these light cavalry is led by a squad leader, and the ten thousand-man squad is led by a captain, and the team has no number, and there is no rank among the soldiers, only the captain and the team members, even if they were former army commanders, now they have to obey the squad leader. The team members absolutely obey the team leader, the team leader absolutely obeys the team leader, and the three team leaders are Yue Fei, Yelu Xiaoshi, and Dong Ping. Read good books

They had to go on a difficult mission, and they were going to die for the rest of their lives, which was explained at the mobilization meeting before the selection of the team members. Team members are automatically registered first, and then selected according to their ability among the applicants. Although they knew that the task was arduous, there were many soldiers who signed up, and the team members were proud to complete the arduous task. As for what tasks, it is kept secret for the time being.

The team members train in a unified manner, and no matter what kind of weapons they used before, they are now unified special sabers. In addition to riding skills, sword skills, strength, endurance and other training, bow and arrow training is also added to the training program.

Now bows and arrows have basically become a personal hobby in the autonomous region, because the autonomous region has a very advanced repeater, which is equipped with a mechanical firing device, and an arrow magazine of ten arrows, which is labor-saving and fast. In addition to this, they are trained to eat raw meat and help themselves after being injured. Self-help training in the hospital is new knowledge for these laymen, and it is enough to study and practice it carefully. But eating raw meat makes it difficult for them, most of them are Han Chinese, they are used to eating cooked food, and they are resistant to savage behaviors such as drinking blood from Ru Mao, but this is a hard task, and if you don't eat it, you will quit the team. The team members could only grit their teeth and eat, and they basically got used to it after eating for a few days.

Yue Fei sent his parents to Liangshanbo and then went to Taihang Mountain for training, he took Niu Gao, Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, and Tang Huai with him, and all of them were selected into the light cavalry team. For the newcomers, this mission is to participate in the first answer sheet of the autonomous region, and the results depend on their personal efforts.

Wang Shan was going to go, but after Song Jiang understood their actual situation, he let Wang Shan stay by his side. Song Jiang, who came from later generations, knew that Yang Jin, the hornless cow, would pull up a team of hundreds of thousands of people in the future, and when the opportunity was right, it would be just right for Wang Shan to contact Yang Jin and insert a lever in the confusing Central Plains.

After the leadership meeting, the arsenal manufactured weapons in large quantities, long-range heavy crossbows, crossbows, artillery shells, grenades, mines, and other weapons that can effectively kill and injure the Jin soldiers were in stock, and arrows were also manufactured in batches, and as long as the Jin soldiers came, there would be enough weapons to kill them.

In addition, Song Jiang had the arsenal build many stone throwers of different sizes, which were simple to manufacture and very practical for the defense of some steep strongholds.

Strongholds have been set up at all the dangerous intersections in the autonomous region, especially on some mountains and hills, where thousands of soldiers are guarded, and the fortifications are all newly built with cement, with plenty of food and ammunition, and are equipped with different kinds of stone throwers. The stronghold is mainly infantry, and the purpose is to block the Jin soldiers, not to fight with the Jin soldiers, but only to defend.

As long as the Jin soldiers attack the autonomous region, they will be blocked one after another, slowing down the Jin soldiers' attack. The Jin soldiers could only make a detour or besiege, and if they wanted to pull out these strongholds with all their might, they would not succeed if they could not drop thousands of corpses under each stronghold.

In this way, the troops are stretched thin, and it is imperative to recruit troops. In order not to contradict the imperial court and not to blatantly recruit soldiers, the autonomous region first secretly selected outstanding personnel from the militia to supplement the ranks.

Not wanting to select nearly 150,000 troops just by selecting outstanding militiamen, Song Jiang was overjoyed and selected particularly outstanding soldiers from among these regularized militiamen to form eight infantry divisions and two cavalry divisions. The rest of the militia who have been regularized mainly participate in the defense of various strongholds, and one-third of the veterans and two-thirds of the new recruits in the strongholds, and the veterans train the recruits in discipline, tactics, and the use of weapons, and the results are quite good. When the militia is reduced, it will be replenished from the civilian population, and training will be stepped up to support the regular army in combat at critical times.

Now it is calculated that the autonomous region will not suffer a loss in terms of troops, except for the more than 100,000 troops in Taihang Mountain, once the autonomous region starts a war, in addition to the team defending the stronghold, it can quickly assemble nearly 200,000, and this is not counting the naval army. Although the autonomous region now has only 30,000 troops in name, in fact many of them are soldiers who have taken off their military uniforms and will return to the army as soon as there is any disturbance.

The autonomous region also has a considerable amount of grain reserves, and some of the money and goods that were stolen from the Jin soldiers last time were used to exchange for grain, and almost all the surplus grain in the cities outside the autonomous region was bought up by the autonomous region. At present, not only the state capitals have a large amount of grain, but also the food in the bases.

There has also been great progress in weapons, and Ouyang Ming, a skilled craftsman, has already successfully experimented with gas masks and improved the train of the Divine Fire General. Now the whole train is a whole, with a steel guard in front to block the arrows, and a huge fire pipe embedded in the train, which contains his specially configured fire objects. As long as the train is pushed into the enemy line and the fuse is lit, the mouth of the fire can spew out fierce flames several feet away. Moreover, the fire-breathing trains are parked together, which can also effectively block the enemy's cavalry, which can be said to be dual-purpose.
