Chapter 40: Outwitting the Mountain
Xiao Yi and everyone had just set up camp, although it was just past noon, it was not hot at all, and the cool wind caressed Xiao Yi's cheeks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is no longer like the cold wind howling in the morning and evening, leaving a few cuts on Xiao Yi's face.
This way, Xiao Yi came over with everyone full of hunger, and everyone hadn't eaten a good meal for many days. Finally arrived at the place, Xiao Yi asked Shi Lu and Wang Dayong to take a few men to buy fifteen liters of rice and two taels of meat to improve the food for everyone.
When everyone heard this, they all cheered, and set up iron pots and some simple utensils. Since it was just outside Changning Town, Xiao Yi was not afraid that any thieves would dare to come here, so everyone lit a pile of small fires, and when Shi Lu and Wang Dayong came back, Xiao Yi asked Shi Gang to tell everyone about their coming.
Everyone applauded loudly, and everyone was curious about Xiao Yi's experience along the way, what Shi Gang said was vivid, spitting and dancing, that is, even Xiao Yi was amused by this guy. When everyone heard Li You's atrocities in Xiaohuangzhuang, they all gritted their teeth with hatred.
When they heard that Brother Xiao Yi's seven people bravely killed four pigtailed soldiers, everyone was extremely excited and shouted, "Kill! "Kill that Tartar!" It seems that they all hate to follow Xiao Yi to kill the Tartars. And Wang Dashan, who was knocked unconscious, didn't know when he woke up, and after waking up, he went through the initial stupidity, but he listened to it stupidly.
Xiao Yi had already asked Huang Yang to look at Wang Dashan to see if he had any movements, this Wang Dashan's reaction was unexpected even by Huang Yang, it stands to reason that this guy should have stood up and roared immediately with Wang Dashan's temper, but at this time, he listened to everyone.
When talking about the death of the second child and Jin Qiqi, everyone was silent for a while, and finally when Xiao Yi got the Qi family knife from Qi Lao to subdue Wang Dahu, everyone felt Xiao Yi's energy again. Wang Dashan also looked at Xiao Yi, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his tiger eyes.
Before they finished speaking, Shi Lu and Wang Dayong came back with a group of men, everyone was carrying bags of rice noodles and two small bags of meat, which couldn't help but make everyone's greedy eyes about to get on it.
Xiao Yi scolded with a smile, "Okay, if you don't finish listening today, there will still be tomorrow, hurry up and prepare the meal, our brother will eat him well." The crowd dispersed, still unsatisfied but happily preparing the meal.
Looking at the busy crowd, Xiao Yi always had a knot in his heart, that is, after Da'ankou, Xiao Yi didn't have any news of Li You's gang, and he didn't know where this guy went, could his hatred be let go like this? No, he was not reconciled. If he doesn't kill that Li You, he will never be reconciled.
The price of a liter of rice is less than a penny of silver, and Shi Lu and they bought fifteen liters of rice noodles, and spent less than thirteen coins of silver in total, plus meat, this trip did not cost much, four or five taels of silver, mainly because meat cost more. But Xiao also felt that these were nothing, as long as everyone could eat well and be full.
This meal can be said to have oil and meat in everyone's bowl, although there are not many of them, but they are very satisfied with these farmers who used to live a life of insufficient food and clothing all year round.
Everyone was grateful to Xiao Yi, and coupled with the story that Shi Gang had told them before, these people were even more determined about the prospect of following Xiao Yi. They all said bluntly that only by following Brother Xiao can they be fed and clothed.
Suddenly, Liu Sheng opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Xiao, I heard that you killed that white-armored pigtail soldier yourself?" Everyone looked away.
Xiao Yi nodded with a smile, drank the porridge in the bowl, and said, "This waist knife belongs to the white-armored soldier, as well as the inner armor I am wearing, and this tiger spear are all from the Tartar soldier." ”
Liu Sheng looked at the shining white armor and the flickering tiger spear on Xiao Yi's body, and said enviously, "I heard that the most brutal of the white-armored Tartar soldiers, Xiao Tou was able to kill the white-armored Tartar soldiers alone, I Liu Sheng admired!" ”
"Me too, admire Brother Xiao!"
Everyone gathered around to ask Xiao Yi to talk about killing the Tartar soldiers, Xiao Yi simply put down the bowl, sat in the middle, and gestured with his hands, while talking, gesturing over and over again. Not only told the story, but also let everyone have a little understanding of the Tartar soldiers, Shi Gang and the others stepped forward one after another to tell them the usual tricks of the Tartar soldiers, and these people immediately put away their laughing expressions and remembered them seriously.
The time flickered to evening, and everyone was well fed and prepared. Xiao Yi saw that everyone had nothing to do, and he was bored. Simply, a slap, practice!
Xiao Yishui suddenly got up and shouted, "Come brothers, get up for me and practice!" ”
Everyone was immediately shocked, got up one after another, and stood up in a horizontal row. However, due to the lack of training due to the usual rush, coupled with the frolic in the afternoon, everyone was too relaxed, and the ranks were not neatly standing.
Xiao Yi knew in his heart that he couldn't relax for a moment. Shout, "Raise your gun, raise your shield!" ”
"Hey!" Everyone was in good spirits, the pikemen stabbed forward, and the knife player raised his shield to block the pikeman's flank.
"Raise your gun, raise your shield!" Repeat the same action, over and over again. No one is dissatisfied, they are all training hard.
Shi Gang, Shi Gang, Wang Dayong, Liu Tong, and Shi Lu have also entered the team to follow the training, even Huang Yang and Xiao Yi deliberately let him stop looking at Wang Dashan and make him look like no one is watching, but Xiao Yi's side eyes have been paying attention to that side.
Since Wang Dashan heard the story, he has been staring blankly at the front, not running away, not shouting, not knowing what he is thinking, and he does not drink the bowl of porridge given to him by Huang Yang in front of him.
Xiao Yi has been repeating these movements, and Xiao Yi believes that military training should start with the most basic but effective methods. For example, the queue, which can not only make your troops look more imposing, but also increase everyone's coordination, and deal a heavy blow to the enemy, which is the most basic.
The queue is almost finished, and it is necessary to start practicing the immediate response when going into battle to kill the enemy, Xiao Yi is now these people have experienced the battle of life and death, seen blood, and seen the cruelty of war. Therefore, Xiao Yi omitted this step and directly let them practice the easiest way to improve their combat effectiveness, that is, the division of labor.
A team of five people, two knife players The role is to prevent the pikemen in the middle from being harmed, so let them practice raising their shields and slashing, and the pikemen, as the main combat force, let them practice spear forward stabbing. In this way, these veterans who have been on the battlefield will soon transform into real elites.
Xiao Yi walked to Wang Dashan, who was in a daze, and patted Wang Dashan on the shoulder. Sit down beside him and hand him the porridge. "Drink, I'm not here to put you on a hunger strike." ”
Wang Dashan retracted his gaze, glanced at the bowl in Xiao Yi's hand, and actually saw a piece of meat floating on it, and there was some oil meat around. Wang Dashan swallowed his saliva, took the bowl, and drank it in a big gulp, while drinking a vague word, "Who, who said that I want to go on a hunger strike, that is not the husband's doing." Anything else? ”
Xiao Yi looked at Wang Dashan with a smile and said, "Yes, a lot, enough for you to drink." ”
Wang Dashan didn't say a word, drank six big bowls, and then asked, "Xiao Yi, what I said before is true?" Xiao Yi directly took out the Qi family knife, brushed aside the tattered mandarin duck battle jacket outside his body, and revealed the fine gold and white armor inside, which was self-evident.
Wang Dashan got up and said, "Xiao Yi, give me a waist knife, I also train with them, I also want to kill the Tartars." ”
Xiao Yi took a captured Houjin waist knife and handed it to Wang Dashan without saying a word. Wang Dashan took the waist knife, glanced at Xiao Yi, half-knelt on the ground, and said, "I, Wang Dashan, will follow Xiao Tou from now on, kill the Tartars, and my Wang Dashan will not hesitate a little!" ”
Xiao Yi helped Wang Dashan up, the two sat on the ground, Xiao Yi smiled and said, "I have no doubt about this, why are you still stunned, go and train with them, when you can be useful in the future." Xiao Yihu suddenly called out again, "By the way, go over there and pick a rattan brand by yourself." ”
Wang Dashan agreed, smirked, held the waist knife and went to training.
Xiao Yi looked at Wang Dashan who had just run to the end of the queue and found that there was no place to enter, and was worried, but Liu Sheng, who was suddenly taking advantage of the change of action, and everyone made way for Wang Dashan to make a place.
Xiao Yi shook his head, it seemed that his worries were unnecessary.
