Chapter 14 Construction and Protection of the Village Team (Part I)

On the second day, Gao Shun got up early in the morning and rode to the gourd valley without having breakfast. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the tent in the army, Li Qiang asked in surprise: "What is the important thing for the general to come in a hurry?" ”

"Yesterday, I discussed with the old village chief and others that I would register those who were rescued, so that we could avoid a lot of trouble, and let them go back to Taiping Village to live today."

Li Qiang said: "This is a good thing, but I am afraid that our attack on the Huns will be exposed." ”

Gao Shun said with a smile: "It's okay, the news can't reach the Huns for a while, and when they know, our side will also be built." In order to facilitate things in the future, I decided that Li Shichang would be responsible for leading these people back to the village, and by the way, the household registration would be transferred to Taiping Village, and the chief of the horse army would temporarily lead the soldiers to guard the horses and build the gourd valley. ”

"No!"

According to Gao Shun's plan, Li Qiang and Zhao Xiong will be registered first, and they can be taken with them when they go out in the future, plus there are 4 guards in the space who have not been released, and general dangers can be handled; Ma Gui led the other 3 guards to sit at home, and he would definitely be able to protect the safety of the rear.

Li Qiang led these people to repair their houses and arrange a place to live after they returned; The day after tomorrow, recruit the village protection team and ask if they are willing to participate. ”

"No!"

Gao Shun asked them to bring back the supplies of 40 carriages back to the village, plus the original horses, a total of more than 50 horses, enough to form a team of cavalry.

After Li Qiang and the others left, Gao Shun ordered the soldiers to drive all the more than 300 war horses to the inner valley and temporarily put the supplies in the outer valley; And arrange for 1 tithe's pikemen to take care of the horses.

The rest of the personnel excavated the foundation of the city wall at the mouth of the outer valley with Gao Shun, preparing to build the city wall first, and the valley could be built slowly.

Fortunately, while digging, Gao Shun and Ma Gui and others loaded the excavated sand and gravel into the space ring, these soldiers are all system people, and they are not worried about leaks, so the speed is very fast, and it only took one day to dig a hard clay layer, and the foundation is 3 meters deep.

According to Gao Shun's plan, the city wall was built on the inner side of the valley mouth, which was concave to increase the defensive area; There is a narrow passage ahead, even if a large number of enemies come in, it cannot be used, which is not conducive to attacking, but it is very convenient to defend; Later, when there is time, build a wall on the outside of the valley mouth, so that it will be even more foolproof.

In order to be in a hurry, Gao Shun did not ask to build the road wall very majestic and tall, the foundation is only 5 meters wide, the upper part is planned to be 3 meters wide, and the height is about 6 meters.

For this reason, Gao Shun purchased 17,000 square meters of granite material stone from the system, the price was very cheap, and it only cost more than 400 points, which made him very happy.

The specifications of the material stones are 1m * 0.5 m * 0.3 m, 0.5 m * 0.5 m * 0.3 m and 1 m * 0.25 m * 0.3 m.

After the stone was released from the system, Gao Shun was even more surprised that there were small protrusions and dents on the stone, which could be well clamped together to avoid sliding and increase the solidity of the city wall.

The rest of the things will be handed over to Ma Gui and others, and I believe that with the space ring, the city wall can be built in less than 10 days.

On April 9, Gao Shun announced the date of recruiting the village protection team, and just after 8 o'clock in the morning, people arrived at the valley field of Taiping Village one after another to wait; By 9 o'clock, more than 200 people had gathered, and more than 100 of those who had been rescued had come, but they were standing alone on the west side of the grain yard and waiting.

After Li Qiang had breakfast, he and Zhao Xiong arrived at the grain field early, and the two of them were responsible for recruiting guards.

Gao Shun didn't go to the scene immediately, but he first used the special function of the system map to check the crowd, and found no red dots, so he was relieved.

Li Qiang shouted: "Everyone be quiet, I am Li Qiang, responsible for the recruitment of this village protection team." Now let me talk about the salaries first, the village guards recruited today are divided into four groups, namely cavalry and infantry, and the infantry includes pikemen, sword and shield soldiers, and archers; The salary of ordinary infantry members is 3 stone millet and 300 wen yuan per month; The length of the river is doubled, and the length of the tun is doubled again, and the chief of Wu and Du Bo enjoy the middle of the two classes, that is, Wu Chang has 4 stone and 5 buckets of su and 450 wen money per month, and Du Bo has 9 stone millet and 900 wen money per month; The salary of cavalry is higher than that of infantry, and the salary is doubled on this basis, that is to say, the salary of ordinary cavalry members is 6 stone millet per month, 600 wen yuan; Do you all understand? ”

"Understood." Everyone replied in unison. Although the treatment of ordinary team members has not changed, if they can become cavalry or petty officers, then the salary is very high, and it is not a problem to support their families, which is simply a surprise for masters.

"Our village protection team only values skills, and everyone can challenge once a month, for example, ordinary team members can challenge the captain, the captain can challenge the chief, and so on. Even if you are not selected this time, don't give up, at the end of each month in the future, anyone can challenge the selected team members, as long as they can defeat 2 team members, or draw 3 team members, they can join the village protection team; Do you understand? ”

"Understood."

Zhao Xiong took a step forward and said: "Hello everyone, I am the captain of the village protection team, everyone is welcome to challenge me in the future, if you can defeat me, then I will also give way." Now I will talk about the conditions, between the ages of 17 and 35, in good health, and not one child in the family, unless it is alone, and only one brother can be wanted; After the initial selection, there will be a second elimination. ”

Li Qiang continued: "Okay, the initial selection will start now, and if you don't meet the above conditions, please withdraw; First of all, the archers are selected, and on the basis of the above conditions, the bow and arrow proficiency are required; One moment it was necessary to select part of the cavalry from the archers; Those who participated in the selection stayed in the field, and the others waited around the barn. ”

Jin Zhong and Zhou Yong set up 4 straw figures on the south side of the grain field, and prepared 4 3 stone bows and 2 pot arrows.

Li Qiang drew a line 50 meters away from the straw man and said: "Everyone stands behind the line and shoots, each person shoots 3 arrows, and those who can shoot 2 arrows are qualified." Start now! ”

Most of the people in the frontier were skilled in arching and horses, and most of the rescued people participated in the selection of archers, and nearly 150 people participated in the selection of archers, including people from their own villages and other villages.

The speed was very slow, it took 1 hour to complete the selection, a total of 43 people qualified, after all, the body of those rescued has not fully recovered, although those villagers are old hunters, but their hunting bows do not have the power of 3 stones, and they are very uncomfortable after replacing bows and arrows.

In the Han Dynasty, 1 stone was about 20 kg, and 3 stone bows were 60 kg bows.

At noon, Gao Shun managed rice, regardless of whether he was selected or not, he enjoyed the treatment of corn porridge, ate as he pleased, and each person had a bowl of mutton soup after the meal. Anyway, he was not short of food, and in order to earn a good reputation, he arranged in advance for those rescued who had not signed up to cook in a kettle.

In the afternoon, the selection continued, and Gao Shun also came to the scene to check.

Li Qiang said: "Now the cavalry is selected, and the cavalry is divided into two parts, one is the cavalry archers, and the other is the cavalry soldiers; Cavalry archers are required to be proficient in wielding bows and arrows on galloping horses, and cavalry warriors are required to be able to fight the enemy on horses; Now select the cavalry archers. ”

A few horses had already been brought in and tested in turn, otherwise the horses would be too tired if they only used one horse.

Because the field is too small, there is no way to test shooting on a galloping horse, as long as the foundation is there, and then increase training in the future.

After seeing these strong horses, many people who know horses can't help but sigh secretly, good horses, much stronger than the war horses of the border army! If only they could join the cavalry, not only were they well paid, but each of them had a horse.

These more than 300 war horses are the best selected by Gao Shun and others from thousands of Hun war horses, and their height is generally about 135 centimeters.

Many people couldn't even get their horses up, causing laughter from the visitors, so much so that many people who felt unfit to be mounted archers dropped out of the test, and in the end only 12 people were selected for the cavalry team.

Gao Shun checked the force value of their 12 people, all of them were above 40, and the lowest force value was Gao Wu, which was 41, mainly because he was still young, and it was estimated that in a few years, his force value could easily exceed 50; The person with the highest force value reached 66, his name was Xu Zhen, and he was one of the rescued people, Gao Shun was very satisfied with the quality of these 12 people, and nodded at Li Qiang.

Li Qiang shouted: "12 archers are selected for the cavalry team, and another 38 cavalry soldiers will be recruited below." ”

The selection of cavalry soldiers is simpler, as long as they can gallop on horseback, and then after Gao Shun's review, the force value is greater than 40.

Most of the people at the border pass can ride horses, so the selection of cavalry soldiers is very fierce, and some of the skilled riders also make various tricks on their horses, which won bursts of applause.

After fierce competition, there were 42 people very good in the end, Li Qiang was difficult to choose, asked Gao Shun for help, Gao Shun checked it, the force value was all above 40, it is a pity that there was no more than 60, Gao Shun was very happy, he didn't expect that there were so many people who met the requirements of the cavalry, and immediately made a decision, all of them, and then looked at the actual combat situation in the future, and the unsuitable cavalry returned to the infantry.
