"Thorn!"

"Close!"

It's all hard for me, what? Didn't you eat? Look at the brothers in the guards, how do they train? Everyone is an elite, they all came back from yesterday's bloody battle, and they are all still injured? Don't let others look down on you? Give me a good practice, the adults said, sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime, are you willing to sweat now? Or are you willing to shed blood later? Li Erniu, who was led by the deputy team, scolded. And hard training his new subordinates, Li Erniu killed two people yesterday, made meritorious contributions, and appointed a deputy team leader, Li Erniu, who was very excited, naturally doubled his training of his subordinates, so that the adults had a long face.

Zhao Xi's fifty guards are also training hard, wearing black round-necked samurai uniforms, hanging a long knife at the waist, holding a spear in one hand, hooking a small black round shield in the other, standing in a military posture on the training ground, captain Zhao Qingshan and deputy team leader Shunzi are also in front, facing everyone also standing in a military posture, the sweat beads on everyone's faces drip down their chins on the ground, although in the north, the weather in April is still not called cold, but everyone oozes sweat.

In order to set an example for the other squads, Zhao Xi deliberately selected fifty people who could be trained immediately from the more than 100 people who were slightly injured yesterday, formed a personal guard, and changed into black samurai clothes, with captured long knives and round shields, and the aura of slaughter was suddenly revealed.

"Cousin, let's ride a horse today, don't look at the map here, who drew this map, it's like a ghost." The little girl Xin'er shouted in Zhao Xi's ear again.

Zhao Yi, who was looking at the map of Wild Boar Ridge, was also a little big by this little girl.

"Okay, Xin'er, don't bother my cousin anymore, my cousin still has something to do, when my cousin is free, I'll take you to ride a horse." After Xu Qinlian poured a cup of tea for Zhao Xi, she said to Xin'er.

"Okay, Xin'er listens to my sister."

"By the way, how many people are making clothes now?"

"If you have something to pay for your wages and take care of your meals, not only the families of the soldiers are here, but even the people from Pinglou Town are here, plus the original 100 people, there are a total of 500 people, and after three days, it will definitely be completed." Xu Qinlian said with confidence on his face.

"That's good!"

"And what about the women after the clothes are made? They're not a few years older than me, so they're so pathetic. ”

Zhao Xi knew what pity Li'er was talking about, these girls were in a daze after they were rescued, and they didn't seem to care about anything, if it weren't for Zhao Xian's enlightenment on the spot that day, maybe these hundred women didn't know how much else they could have left, and they lived secretly that day, and thought that they had a family to survive, who knew that they would have been killed by the old scar of the mountain bandit. The belief in his heart collapsed, and he lost the desire to live, and Zhao Yi kept finding something for them to do to avoid accidents.

"In this case, I will let them teach them martial arts, and I will be my mother and you as a guard in the future." Zhao Yi thought for a while and said.

"Martial arts? Is it appropriate to practice martial arts at such an age? ”

Zhao Xi said with a smile: "It's not a general, you have to take the head of a general with thousands of troops, you must know that there are many heroes who are reckless, many people have not practiced martial arts, and they still go to the battlefield with one enemy and ten, and one enemy with one hundred." Don't worry about this, after I let people train, they will definitely not be inferior to those border soldiers. ”

Zhao Yi was ready to let Zhao Mang and Zhao Fei, who stayed behind, train them, he believed that these women who didn't care about anything would definitely become very good soldiers after training, but some mountain bandits would be unlucky during training.

"Oh, by the way, I heard them say today that the mountain bandits also captured the children of more than 20 large families, and were ready to extort money from the big families in the surrounding villages and towns, and after you rescued them, they still stayed on the mountain." Xu Qinlian looked at Zhao Xian and said softly.

When Zhao Yi heard this, he was stunned, and said loudly: "Oops, I forgot about them, I'll deal with them now, damn it, I forgot about them!" He said in annoyance as he walked out quickly.

Seeing that Zhao Yi went out, Xu Qinlian breathed a sigh of relief, when he saw those children today, he learned that they were captured by the mountain bandits before, but Zhao Xi did not let them go after defeating the mountain bandits. She didn't know if these children were deliberately left by Zhao Xi, but she still decided to ask Zhao Xi about it. Seeing Zhao Xi's expression, Xu Qinlian was still very satisfied, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and there seemed to be something in her heart that she had put down.

"Whew!"

Xu Qinlian let out a sigh, as if the person who carried the weight had thrown away the burden. A comfortable smile also appeared on the delicate and beautiful face, and she didn't know what she was whispering.

"Uncle Li!" Zhao Yi quickly came to his training ground and found Li Chenfeng.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

"Are there still more than 20 children in our cottage who have been captured by mountain bandits?"

"Yes, you said last time that you would wait for you to come back to deal with it, so you're still in the cottage."

Zhao Yi smiled bitterly: "I forgot about this, if it wasn't for Li'er to mention it, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to remember it." In this way, Uncle Li, you send a few people to send them back, but you have to say hello to the other party, hoping that they can give us some help, for example, a message, buy some food or something. ”

Li Chenfeng nodded and said: "Okay, I'll let Xie Yun, who is in charge of logistics, go with them later, Xie Yun is also an old man in my house, he is careful, and he can settle accounts, and he is responsible for logistics grain and grass statistics here, and it is very suitable to have him with him." ”

Ten days ago, under Zhao Xi's arrangement, the person in charge of logistics was divided into two parts, one was food and the other was weapons. The person in charge of the food is Xie Yun, and the weapon is built by an old blacksmith who has been making iron for more than ten years, and his son is under Zhao Xi, so he also came to Wohu Mountain, after Zhao Xi learned about his craft, he asked him to lead more than 20 blacksmiths and more than 30 apprentices, responsible for making spear heads and long knives for soldiers.

Three days passed in a flash, and there were 800 sergeants standing in the huge training ground, and the commanders of each outpost were also standing in the front of each outpost. All the soldiers changed into neat black uniforms and shoes, and it looked like a black cloud falling on the ground, but the cold tip of the spear on the upper side told everyone that this was a dark cloud that would devour people.

Zhao Xi's only son stood on the high platform alone, looking at a pair of eyes below that were either adoring or admiring or envious, and suddenly became proud: Father, I will definitely avenge you, I will!

The slight spring breeze blew the fire unicorn cloak behind Zhao Xi, bringing a whirring sound, which also made everyone envious.

"Today, we are in the army, no matter where the people around us come from, we are now the brothers of Paoze, the brothers who will block the knife for themselves on the battlefield in the future, from today on, we will not be bullied anymore, because we have hundreds of brothers. But let's not insult people like us once were. The day before yesterday, I sent home the children in the cottage who had been captured by the former bandits, and yesterday, their families came to thank us with food and money. Are you willing to be a mountain bandit who is scolded by everyone or a rebel army who is loved by everyone? ”

"Rebels! Rebel! Rebel! The crowd shouted in unison.

"This kid really has a set! Obviously, those big families were afraid that you would go into trouble, so they sent money, but you said that people came to thank you. Su Yun, who was in the distance, smacked his mouth and said.

"Everyone envy my cloak! Today I have also prepared 150 cloaks, and only 150 of them are available, and only those who have made meritorious contributions are eligible to wear them, except for the commanders and team leaders of each post. As he spoke, Zhao Yi waved his hand, and Xie Yun took a few people to hug a large number of cloaks.

Although the soldiers in the audience had different expressions, they did not change their postures or speak.

Yes, it seems that the military posture is very effective, Zhao Xi thought.

"Now, all those whom I call for come up and receive your cloaks."

"Li Chenfeng!" Zhao Yi shouted loudly, in fact, Zhao Yi originally wanted to let a few sentry commanders wear cloaks first, but Li Chenfeng and Li Lingfeng were both so bad, so they were uniformly distributed.

Seeing Uncle Li standing in front of him, Zhao Yi picked up a cloak, shook it off, helped him tie his collar, and said with a smile: "I said that I deserve it, Uncle Li, you have to bring it here, how do you feel?" ”

Li Chenfeng glanced at Zhao Yi carefully and said, "You are becoming more and more similar to the way your father used to be, but you are smarter and more flexible." With that, he walked down with a slam of his right hand on his chest, and a flame drifted in the wind after he got up.

"Zhao Xiong!"

"Li Lingfeng!"

…………

One hundred and fifty flame cloaks, in addition to the sentry captain rate of each post, only Zhao Xi's personal guards are fully equipped, and there are also some soldiers who have made meritorious contributions, among which the veterans of the first post are the most. Considering the responsibilities of the pro-guards, Zhao Yi removed the spears of the pro-guards, wearing only long knives and round shields, and planned to add hand crossbows, but unfortunately he only had thirteen, one of which was taken by Zhou Blacksmith to study, ready to be disassembled and imitated, but the other twelve were ready to be used, and Zhou Blacksmith specially created an iron arrow that wanted to be peaceful.

"Don't envy the rest of the brothers, as long as you make meritorious contributions, this cloak will also have your share."

Hearing Zhao Xi's words, those who didn't get the cloak turned envy into fighting spirit, preparing to kill a few people in the next battle, and strive to wear this beautiful flame cloak as well. The person wearing the cloak raised his head proudly, thinking that it would be better to show Xiàn next time.

"There are still tasks to be done today, there are many veterans of the first outpost, and there are many wounded, so they stay behind. The other four sentinels immediately went to assemble on horseback. After Zhao Xi finished speaking, each team rushed to their camp to get their horses, and the first post returned to their respective positions.

Five minutes later, the five sentinels all gathered at the training ground, and the personal guards stood on either side of Zhao Xi.

"Target, Boar Ridge, go!" Zhao Xi waved the spear in his hand, and the second sentinel rode towards the gate of the village. The remaining three sentinels followed.

"Let me pass!"

Zhao Yi turned his head to see that it was Su Yun who came to find Zhao Yi, but was blocked by the majestic Shunzi.

"Master Su, what are you looking for me? If there's nothing important, wait until I get back. ”

Su Yun said: "What is Commander Zhao going to do?" The day after tomorrow is when you go to Yanzhou with me, but now you are going to war? ”

Zhao Xi smiled and said: "It's not to fight, it's to appease, in the name of the left soldiers and horses of Yanzhou." ”

"What? You are in my name, and I have no tokens. Su Yun was taken aback and said.

Zhao Xi pointed to the crossbow on the waist of the guards next to him and said, "That's not!" ”

When Su Yun saw it, he immediately understood that this crossbow was originally used by his own guards, and it also had the mark of the military envoy on it.

"Commander Zhao...... Terrible! , I'm waiting for your good news! After saying that, he turned his head and went back.
