Chapter 60 Forming Village Soldiers

After a few days of busyness, Qin Forget finally arranged the affairs of Qinjia Village.

The damned bandits have all been executed by their own people, and those injured guys have also been healed by Song Jimin, and when they are healed, they will be sent to work in the monkey nest. The bandits who were killed, their families were all driven out of Qinjia Village, and Qin Forget didn't dare to let these people who were full of hatred for Qinjia Village stay here.

It is worth mentioning that the old man who confronted Qin Wang twice was left behind, and Qin Wang ordered him to appease the bandits and his family as soon as possible, otherwise not only would he die, but even his family would be kicked out. Now it is the time when there is no green and yellow and there is a spring famine, and no one wants to be driven out and starve to death, so the old man is naturally full of promises.

The young men who died in battle were able to be buried in peace, and their families were well received. The injured young men were all effectively treated. The captives and bandit families were all sent to the monkey's nest to work for three years under the strict supervision of the people of Qinjia Village. The refugees from Chicheng were also resettled in Qinjia Village, and Qingzhuang was selected and sent to the monkey's nest.

Qinjia Village has returned to its previous calm, and although it has just experienced a major war, its population has skyrocketed several times. Nearly 3,000 people were crammed into the small village, which looked crowded and chaotic.

"More than 2,000 people came in at once, and there were not enough houses. Yang Xuan, I will inform your brother later, and let him lead the young men who have cultivated the monkey nest under his command, and hurry up to build a batch of houses. It's spring, but you're still going to freeze to death. Qin Forget frowned and looked at the people who were sitting in a circle with a bonfire.

Indeed, there are only 100 houses in Qinjia Village, and only more than 200 houses were built later, which cannot meet the requirements at all. The vast majority of the more than 2,000 newcomers can only stay in the wilderness, and the daytime is better, the sun is abundant, and it is not so difficult to do some more work. Not at night, the north is cold, and spring comes late, although it is six or nine years old. But at night, the temperature will still plummet, the cold wind is bitter, only relying on tents, bonfires, hot soup, it is really difficult to survive the long night, many people have frostbitten hands and feet.

Yang Xuan obviously noticed this situation as well, "Okay, I'll tell my brother when I go back, so many people will do it together, it should be very soon." ”

"Well, what's the mood of those people? Especially those bandits and their families. Qin Forget was very relieved to Yang Xuan and the others, and no longer paid attention to the issue of building a house.

"Don't worry, the owner, they are frightened by the owner's methods, plus they have their family by their side, they are all very honest. Old man Bai also appeased those people very well. Yang Xuan's voice trembled a little, thinking of Qin Wang's methods during the day, his heart was also cold. Forcing those bandits and their families to kill their former compatriots and relatives, Yang Xuan asked himself if he could do it.

Hearing the strangeness in Yang Xuan's tone, Qin Forget glanced at him without explaining too much. He understood that as a leader, it was necessary to make his subordinates fearful.

Qin Forget stopped talking, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Yang Xuan, I plan to form a team to protect the village, and the personnel will be selected from the young men and those wounded who participated in the battle this time. They shed blood and tears for Qinjia Village this time, and their loyalty is very high, and they can be regarded as having been on the battlefield, they have seen blood, and they are much stronger than the new recruits, what do you think? After a long while, Qin Forget asked.

"Okay, boss, I've been thinking about this for a long time. In the past, we were seriously understaffed, so we didn't mention it. Now it's different, we have a lot of new people under our hands, and we can completely replace the old brothers from the labor. Forming a village army, if you encounter this situation again, you will not suffer such a big loss. Yang Xuan happily agreed, he was a soldier, and what he dreamed of was to be able to lead the troops to fight again, so he naturally agreed.

"Well, you're right. This time we have enough manpower, and we captured a lot of bandits' weapons last time, and the weapons are almost enough, so how many village soldiers do you think we should build? ”

Speaking of this, Yang Xuan pondered, he had to consider all aspects.

Qin Forget didn't bother him, although he had read a few military books on military affairs, he had almost no experience, so it was better to give Yang Xuan full authority to deal with it.

"Last time, more than 450 weapons of all kinds were seized, including 67 long knives of various types that could be used, 234 long weapons such as spears and spears, three army standard infantry bows of six buckets, and seven soft bows of four buckets. Yang Xuan said carefully.

"If we look at it this way, we will be able to raise three hundred infantry and ten or so archers. According to the intention of the owner, these village soldiers will be completely out of production, which is a big burden for our Qinjia Village, ten people have to feed one soldier, even the rich Chu State can't do it. Considering the complexity of the personnel in Qinjia Village, especially the fact that the village and the monkey nest have to send people to station, I think it is most appropriate to set up 200 people, 100 people in each of the two places. Yang Xuan considered it comprehensively and gave the final number.

"Well, among the young and strong people who participated in the war this time, as long as I have family members in Qinjia Village, I can also select two hundred sturdy ones who are suitable for being soldiers. By the way, there are also a dozen female archers, who performed very well this time, so let's form archers for the time being. Use them as bows and arrows, and presumably they will be able to do it. Don't forget to rebuild all the weapons into the Yan Army's standard weapons, and the clothing should also be unified, since it is an army, it must have the appearance of an army. Qin Forget thought about it, agreed to Yang Xuan's suggestion, and said his thoughts again.

"Let women be soldiers?" Yang Xuan exclaimed in surprise.

It's no wonder that Yang Xuan was surprised, women, no matter what their combat effectiveness is, just letting them appear in the barracks will cause a big mess. There is an old saying in the army, called "three years as a soldier, the sow races the sable cicada", Yang Xuan has been in the army for many years, but he knows what those big-headed soldiers who have not seen female animals all year round look like when they see women. Moreover, since ancient times, women have had a low status, and their appearance in the army is even considered ominous. The army is the place where the extreme yang is, and women belong to the yin, and the yin and yang are in opposition, which is believed to spoil the luck of the army. Except, of course, camp prostitutes.

"So what?" Qin Forget looked disapproving, "I don't care what happens in other places, Yang Xuan, you have also been in Qinjia Village for a long time, and you know how the women in Qinjia Village are." It's not an exaggeration to say that they can hold up half the sky, right? ”

Hearing Qin Forget say this, Yang Xuan fell silent and no longer objected. Of course, he knows what the women in Qinjia Village are like, and they are better than men in many cases. And this time, if it weren't for those female archers, Qinjia Village would probably have been destroyed long ago. Under such circumstances, it would be very unconscionable to go to the women of Qinjia Village.

The old village chief's house was already Qin Wang's meeting hall. Everything in the room has not changed, one is that everyone is used to this, and the other is the memory of the old village chief.

It's still the earthen kang, or the pine wood, but I don't know if it's because few people use it or because the objects are also the owner, and the things in the room are a lot broken. Especially the small table, the paint on it completely peeled off, revealing the old wood inside, and the person pressed it and let out a groan from time to time. This object, which has witnessed the events of Qinjia Village for decades, will soon follow his original owner and die.

Now there are Qin Wang, Yang Xuan, Aunt Xiu, Aunt Duan and others sitting around the small table. As before, I have experienced so many things, no one has been missing, and the atmosphere has not changed, which makes everyone feel very relieved.

"I discussed with Yang Xuan, and I plan to form two hundred militiamen to protect the village and protect the village, these people will be completely out of production in the future, and they will only train every day. To gather everyone here is to ask if they have any opinions. Qin Forget looked at the room full of subordinates, and said bluntly at the beginning.

Everyone looked at each other, they were very happy, with the army, Qinjia Village would be much safer, and there would be no need for unarmed villagers to work hard, and everyone naturally had no intention of objecting.
