Chapter 12 Zhang Hongsheng

Time passed, and the cohesion of the bandits increased day by day. Su Yi finally stopped letting the bandits practice standing posture and walking upright, and he had people use wood to cut out pieces of wood that resembled shields, and move them to the training ground along with the weapons stored in the cottage.

The breeze was magnificent, and all the bandits stood silently on the training ground, despite the scorching sun, they still stood up straight, and when they saw Su Yi and Scar and others coming, thirty bandits shouted in unison: "I have seen the master of the big village, the master of the second village!" "They move neatly and their voices are loud.

Not long ago, Su Yi promoted the scar man to the second village master, and after this period of training, Su Yi trained the thirty bandits with strict discipline and neat movements, which made the scar man who had admired Su Yi even more obedient.

The scar man is loyal, of course Su Yi wants to be rewarded, only by setting clear rules for rewards and punishments, these bandits who lick blood from the knife edge will obey him, not to mention that Su Yi can see that Liu Shisan is not convinced by him, on the contrary, Liu Shisan obeys the words of the scar man, and Liu Shisan is the most capable one in the cottage in addition to the scar man, and the promotion of the scar man as the second village master also has the meaning of appeasing and deterring Liu Shisan.

Looking at the bandits in a neat formation, Su Yi nodded with satisfaction, in ancient times, there were not many troops who could achieve neat formation and strict discipline, even if it was a regular army, it was difficult to do so.

Those who can really be disciplined and act in a uniform manner can be called elite soldiers. And on the battlefield, if you can still achieve a neat formation and strict discipline, no matter how the enemy attack, you can't break up their formation and disrupt their formation, that is the elite division! And these armies have been baptized by hundreds of battles, large and small, creating them to disregard life and death, even if they are under siege, they can not be in danger, and those who maintain the formation are typical killing machines, the division of a hundred battles!

The strong quality of individual soldiers does not mean that the combat effectiveness of the entire army is strong, if you want to build a strong army, you must first train the army with strict military discipline, obviously, Su Yi has done this at the moment.

Each of the ten bandits under Scar Man was given a wooden shield, five iron knives were given to five of them who were strong, and the remaining five men each received a simple knife, and Scar Man led them to train the army's hand-to-hand combat skills.

These ten people are trained according to the sword and shield soldiers, as the name suggests, the sword and shield soldiers are the defense of an army, although the wooden shield made by Su Yi has limited defense, but it can barely block the attacks of some stray arrows and ordinary swords. The scar man has a vicious appearance, and he has been in the border army, so it is natural to teach the fighting skills of the sword and shield hand in the army. Su Yi often discusses, judging from the skills of the scar man, he doesn't look like an ordinary border sergeant.

On the battlefield, the sword and shield soldiers often rush to the front, so the person who is selected as the sword and shield soldiers needs to have an indomitable momentum, once the front of the sword and shield soldiers is scattered, not only affects the morale of the entire army, but also will disrupt the formation of the rear army, on the battlefield, the most terrible is often their own defeated army, once the defeated army turns around and fles, it will become the vanguard of the enemy army for free, and break their own military formation.

If there are conditions, Su Yi wants to create a heavy infantry, even if he is surrounded by heavy siege, he will be indomitable and killed.

Liu 13 was alert and sharp, and all the ten bandits he brought were equipped with a crude spear as standard. Pikemen, who hide behind sword and shield soldiers as they charge, look for opportunities and wait for opportunities to get out.

And He Kui is honest, he is not as sleek as Liu Shisan, and he is not as brave as the scar man, but he has been hunting in the mountains since he was a child, and his hunting skills are high, and his archery skills are barely okay. Each of his ten bandits was armed with a short wooden bow, and he trained him in archery. Nowadays, there are few cottagers, and once you go out and encounter encounters, the only ones you can really count on are archers.

Led by the three scar men respectively, the three bandits began to practice in an orderly manner, especially the scar man with the Nash sword and shield soldiers, all of them are extremely brave, and each knife and style are the most practical fighting skills in the army, and the ten archers trained by He Kui all follow the rules, although there is nothing outstanding, but the hit rate has increased a lot.

It's the end of the month in a blink of an eye, and there is not much food in the cottage, and the thirty bandits are also practicing decently, at least at a glance, the military looks neat and energetic, which is different from the listlessness that Su Yi saw when he first came to the cottage.

During the exercise, Su Yi ordered the Sanshi bandits to intersperse the training, with the scar man's sword and shield soldiers in front, while He Kui's archers and Liu Shisan's pikemen waited for the opportunity to attack in the rear.

Su Yi was thinking about leading the bandits down the mountain to replenish some gold, silver and food, when a bandit soldier saluted him and said, "The owner of the village, the young man who has been living in the wing room wants to see you." ”

"Oh." Although Su Yi was strange in his heart, he still ordered: "Let him in." ”

"Yes!"

Since the boy returned to the cottage with them, no one has cared about him, and he has been hanging him there, except for a few well-intentioned bandits who know that this person has come back with the owner of the village and will bring him food on time, most of the others are too lazy to pay attention to him. Su Yi was busy training during this time, and he forgot about him for a while.

The young scholar was dressed up and had a slender figure, but the Confucian robe was a little white, and the color of the green and white pieces could be vaguely seen on it, which should be the traces left by the young man after being washed off by the soap horn in the vicious battle in the wilderness.

Su Yi picked up the tea on the desk, took a sip, and asked, "Say, what are you looking for me?" ”

The young man looked at Su Yi, who was about the same age as him, his expression was a little distracted, and when he saw Su Yi looking him up and down, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "The villain Zhang Hongsheng was originally the grandson of the head of Zhangjia Village in the north of the city, and later because of the bandits of Baihu Mountain who came down the mountain to loot, the villagers suffered a catastrophe, and now the villain is willing to follow Su Gongzi and contribute some meager efforts to the cottage." ”

Su Yi glanced at him and said, "It's a helpless move for me to fall into the grass, why should I be a thief?" ”

The young man smiled bitterly and said: "If it is so big today, how can I have a place to stay, the mountains and rivers here are dangerous, and there are strong people everywhere, I go down the mountain alone, but I am afraid that I will be robbed and killed by bandits and grass bandits if I can't go far." ”

"And you're going to do the accounting?"

The young man was shocked when he heard this, gritted his teeth and said, "Villain...... The villain has learned some from the clan bookkeeper, and is willing to give it a try for the son. "He has been familiar with the books of sages since he was a child, and what will be involved in doing these things, but at this moment he is sending people under the fence, if he says no, he is afraid that he will be driven down the mountain immediately, so he can only agree to it.

"Okay." Su Yi also saw that Zhang Hongsheng was not familiar with the matter of accounting, but at the moment there was a lack of cottage talents, only Liu Shisan and Zhao Hongsheng had read books, Liu Shisan's family background was acceptable in his childhood, and he had barely read for a few years, but compared with the scholar in front of him, it was no worse than being illiterate.

"From today on, you will be appointed as my cottage military advisor, responsible for the internal affairs of all sizes in the cottage." Su Yi can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

"Thank you, lord!" Zhang Hongsheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly saluted and paid homage.

Su Yi said strangely: "What do you call me?" ”

"Lord!" Zhang Hongsheng said excitedly: "The dragon and phoenix among the lords are not like ordinary bandits who only know how to loot and live, and the bandits in this cottage were originally muddy and vulnerable. After some training by the lord, he is not weaker than the county garrison, and I believe that once the time is ripe, the lord will definitely compete in the Central Plains and win the world. ”

Su Yi almost squirted out a mouthful of tea, but just waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down, I'm going to take people down the mountain in the next few days, and you should familiarize yourself with some housekeeping in the village first." ”

"Subordinates take orders!" Zhang Hongsheng was overjoyed again.

Su Yi shook his head helplessly, this Zhang Hongsheng is a good person, but he likes to be smart too much.

Zhang Hongsheng turned around and exited the room, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he sneered: "White Tiger Village! If you kill my people and destroy my homeland, one day I will lead my troops to attack the mountain and slaughter all your Baihu Mountain grass robbers to sacrifice hundreds of souls in Zhangjia Village! ”
