On this day, Li Sicheng, who supervised the construction of Feialashan City, returned to Hetuara with the weapons he had just built. Nuerhachi was inspecting the knives and guns presented. The spearhead is in the sun, reflecting the cold light of metal, and the blue and faint evil is the lover.

"The spear is famous, the blade is three-edged, one foot two inches long, and the iron bottle behind the blade is two feet, which is installed on the barrel of the walnut catalpa gun, the size of the gun barrel is one zhang and four feet, and the tip of the spear is to the tail of the gun, and the total size is one zhang and eight feet. This spear is constantly slashed because of the length of the bottle, and even if the iron armor can break it. Attack in three formations, even if 100 people will be defeated. ”

"The name of the knife is outstanding, also known as Miao * knife, it is created by Qi Yuanjing, named after its slender blade like a seedling, with a total length of five feet, a blade length of three feet and eight inches, and a handle of one foot and two inches. It can be used as a spear and spear, and can be used as a knife to chop, and can be held with one hand or with both hands, which is extremely lethal. ”

"The knives are all made of stainless steel, and the spearheads of the funeral guns are not made of steel, but are all made of wrought iron. The production of knives and spears is divided into several processes, some people specialize in refining wrought iron, some people specialize in training steel, some people specialize in spearheads, some people specialize in making blades, some people only make spear shafts, and some people specialize in assembly, so that the efficiency is greatly improved. In only half a month, 150 guns and 100 knives have been made. In addition, 50 pairs of leather armor and 50 crossbows were made. The subordinate caravan, holding the token of the young master Cheng, traded back and forth, without hindrance, and has purchased 100 catties of stainless steel, 500 catties of wrought iron, and ten pairs of iron armor with a lot of money! In addition, the craftsman has been successfully tested according to the method taught by Master Cheng to fry steel, and will soon practice more steel. Bai Siwen, the newly promoted shabby scholar in charge of statistics, reported in half-literate and half-white words, with a little smugness.

Nuer Hachi picked up the knife and gun, examined them one by one, and his fingers ran across the blade, and the end was sharp. "Xiao Cheng! You've done a great job! In just one month, not only has Feialashan City begun to take shape, but also built so many weapons! "Boss, if it weren't for the fact that Fushun Coal Mine, Liaoyang Iron Mine, and Sanshan Haikou haven't succeeded, we can build more things!" However, what rewards are there not this time? You can't talk anymore and don't count! ”

Because the positioning of whether it was a brother-in-law or a son-in-law could not be determined, Li Sicheng was ruthless and resolutely asked Nuer Hachi to agree, only calling Nuer Hachi "boss", or he would not do anything. Nuer Hachi had no choice but to agree. Many years later, some pedantic ministers impeached Li Sicheng and called the emperor "boss", which was disrespectful. Nuer Hachi said: "I and Sicheng know each other and intersect in the end of the micro. At the beginning of Sicheng's follow, my life and death were undecided. Sicheng has always followed, with me as his brother and father, and he is loyal. Tired and dangerous, never complaining. And Sicheng is my relative. The title of "boss", if Sicheng can't say it, who can say it? Do you have to break off my flesh and blood ties with such words? Since then, no one has dared to mention it again.

"Xiao Cheng! You and I are a family, do you still need to be so serious? Let's get down to business first, when you come back this time, you have to help me take a look at government affairs, my head is big! "What's the matter?"

"Didn't you say before that you were going to hit Kang Jia, Jiao Zhan, Long Dun, Sha Mu Zhang and others? This is to mobilize troops and raise grain and grass. Now that winter is approaching, we have to prepare winter supplies. In addition, the repair of the walled cities also needs to be manpowered. I don't even know what to do. "Boss, can't you just do a few things together?!" Seeing that Nuer Hachi and his gang were busy preparing for the winter and so on, Li Sicheng couldn't see their unplanned busyness.

"How many things to do together? All right? "Why can't it, I said, ...... "Eh, didn't I ask Tong Da for a reward?" Why is it crooked?

Outside the city of Mardun, Shamuzhang, there are farmers harvesting and herdsmen grazing, and a caravan is slowly moving on the road. This time the caravan was a little bigger, there were a little more guards, and the line was very long. The first one was less than 5 miles away from the city, and the latter was still grinding 8 miles away.

At this moment, the caravan guards suddenly drew their swords and killed the peasants and herdsmen. The farmers and herdsmen were caught off guard and several were cut down. The peasants without horses were gathered together under the threat of swords, and the herdsmen with horses fled in all directions. However, heavily armed cavalry appeared nearby and drove the herdsmen back.

The caravan approached the gates and the men quickly stopped the carriage a stone's throw from the walls. He took out a lot of things from the cart, quickly assembled a spear and a crossbow, and put leather armor on himself. Then the formation was formed, and those with spears were lined up in front of them, with the end of the spear on the ground and the head of the spear pointing diagonally forward. Crossbowmen lined up in 3 rows at the back of the car, with quivers on their bodies.

The people in the distance gathered the fleeing farmers and herdsmen, and they were guarded by a few people. The others lifted the tarpaulin from the car and unloaded everything from the car, which was something that ignited the fire. Then the grabs were picked out of the sturdy ones, tied up, and stuffed into the cart, and the extra space was filled with the threshed wheat. Finally, after setting a fire in the wheat field, he drove away with cattle and sheep and horses that had been captured.

Of course, the people in the city could not let them do what they wanted, and immediately several fierce men mounted their horses, took their swords, and rushed out of the city gates. Then the fierce people were shot into hedgehogs by crossbow * arrows, and there was no then. The guards panicked and immediately reported Sha Muzhang. Sha Mu Zhang hurriedly recruited the people he could recruit and wanted to go out of the city to intercept them. The team rushed out of the city several times, but they were all shot back.

After about half an hour, it was estimated that his people had gone away, and the team standing in front of the city gate also hung up their wagons and hurried away. The defenders, who finally broke out of the city gates, tried to chase after them, but were constantly harassed by the rangers. The rangers rode one person and two horses, and there were a lot of them, and they fought and left, leaving the defenders helpless.

When the robbers were completely gone, the fire was still raging outside the city. Seeing the fruits of a year's hard work being destroyed, Sha Muzhang stood on the city wall and wanted to cry without tears.

The same thing happened outside the walled city of Kang Jia, Jiao Shan, Long Dun and others.

In Feialashan City, Nuer Hachi, accompanied by Li Sicheng, inspected the harvest of robbery and was overjoyed. Robbers are indeed a promising profession! The captives were taken to repair the walled city. The wheat is hulled, ground and stored as a staple food. The seized cattle and sheep are killed, and the beef and mutton are pickled, smoked, cured, and dried, and eaten later; Cowhide is made into leather armor; sheepskin made of leather jackets; The bones are also smashed, and it seems to be of a lot of use to make the bone powder that Young Master Cheng said.

"Xiao Cheng! I can't figure it out. Don't they all say that the Han people are cowardly? Why have these Han people been trained by you, so they can fight? "As long as there is a profit drive, no matter how cowardly a person is, he will become strong!" For a horse, two cows, ten sheep, and a slave girl, enough for these people to become warriors! Coupled with the right tactics, it is bound to be elite! ”

Kang Jia, Jiao Shan, Long Dun, Sha Mu Zhang and others, who had suffered heavy losses, also needed to reserve supplies for the winter, so they had to work part-time as robbers and send many people to rob. Nuer Hachi's side has been waiting for a long time, and they can't please them, so they have to turn to bully others! Of course, others will not stand still, and suddenly the entire Jianzhou Jurchen, except for Nuer Hachibe, the others are swords against each other, you rob me.

Sha Mu Zhang's subordinates made several sorties, but they did not gain much and suffered many casualties. The first snow has already fallen, and if you don't grab more, you'll be in trouble. Sha Mu Zhang gritted his teeth, personally led the team, and set off to rob the robbery.

The hard work paid off, and I finally grabbed some. Sha Mu Zhang sent people to send the harvest back to Mardun City, and he led people to continue the robbery. His good fortune also ended here, and the resistance to continue to rob was getting more and more severe, and his subordinates suffered a lot of casualties, and the snow was getting heavier and heavier, so Sha Mu Zhang had no choice but to retreat with the rest of his subordinates and the harvest.

The snow was heavy, the road was difficult to walk, and there were constantly seriously injured people falling. When they saw the walls of Mardun from afar, tears welled up in their eyes. When they walked to the bottom of the city, they burst into tears—the city had changed the banner of Nuer Hachi! (Needless to say, it ambushed the team that came back, and then impersonated and tricked the city gate open.) ）

Seeing that the other party slowly surrounded him, Sha Mu Zhang, who knew that he could not escape death, sighed, pulled out a long knife, turned the blade upside down, and cut it to his neck.

The snow was already very large, covering the traces of the war, as well as the bodies of the war dead, and the sky and the earth were vast.
