Volume 1 The Journey Chapter 11 Little Mister
Early in the morning, Xiao Liuzi took the initiative to find Du Heng, the owner of the village, and the two discussed. I saw the owner of the village, nodding frequently, and nagging that everything was decided by Mr. Xiao. Xiao Liuzi basically told the owner of the village what he planned last night, but he knew that the owner of the village was particularly anxious and said: The matter has come to this, there is no need to delay. I'll gather people right away and let Mr. Xiao arrange it. After a while, Du Heng found the one-eyed wolf and gave an order, and there was a sound of a broken gong, and everyone in the stockade gathered in a clearing. Du Heng came to it, stood on an old tree stump and said: Today, we will ask Mr. Xiao to arrange how to resist and defend against the gang of thieves in Liujian Fort.
Xiao Liuzi was not noisy when he saw this scene, stood on the stump of the tree that was not very small, hugged his fists to the old and young masters below and said: Fellow villagers, the owner of our village has already told me very clearly about our situation. People are just a few people, so we have to be united, otherwise we won't even have a place to live. Last night, I thought about it for most of the day, and I had to solve the problem of eating, drinking, and clothing as a top priority, and at the same time preparing for the surprise attack on Liujian Fort. After I've got things in order, I'm going to start training some people. So that these people can really resist that group of well-trained martial artists, so the whole village needs to cooperate together, this is for our homeland to fight.
Xiao Liuzi cleared his throat and said: "The subsequent arrangement, please be sure to deal with it carefully, no link can be wrong, otherwise it will send our village to a place of no return." The terrain of the eighteen villages of Lijiapo belongs to a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and self-sufficient. The top priority here is to establish a message point first. The news point of our village is that the long-legged general and the legging-legged king take their children to collect firewood and graze, mainly facing the direction of the attack of Liujian Fort, the distance between the two points is five miles, and the farthest point of eyeliner is about ten miles away from their own village. Its main task is to discover the actions of the gang of thieves, and must not be entangled, and if they find an attack, they must send the news back to the stockade in the fastest way. The manpower to deal with the attack of thieves needs the four King Kongs to take care of it with me, and I will make arrangements later. The garrison should leave two people in charge, and the role is actually very simple, just clean the battlefield and collect property. The requirements are also very simple, one word is fast, action must be fast, and there can be no delay. I propose that Du Heng, the owner of the village, and the Eight King Kong one-eyed wolves cooperate. In addition, each customer singled out all the young and strong men, and handed over the old and weak women and children to the garrison commander. During this period, only two things were done, the first was to go into the mountains and valleys to find fruits and collect salaries, and the old and weak women and children only used their eyes to find out, and the things collected were collected by the garrison commander and the person responsible for recycling, so as to prepare for the middle of winter. The young and strong men were led by the long-haired Taochang, the thin monk, the flower tongue, and the Tibetan god Vajra, who first selected two groups of men who were flexible and powerful, so as to prepare for the intensive training tomorrow. Every day, the Eight Great King Kong and I had to gather in the Ascending Tent Hall and talk about the harvest and changes of the day. Prepare for tomorrow's direction of action and training content. After Xiao Liuzi finished ordering them one by one, he told everyone to disperse, and he and Du Heng, the owner of the village, found the long-legged general and the legging-bound king together. As they walked, the four of them said: "The two adults are acting outside, which is equivalent to the eyes in our village, and we must not relax." Children can play, but adults should not get carried away and pick up a tree in case they get sleepy. Remember, remember. And the two of them also have to work together, what is the fastest way to deliver messages? It must be a method that everyone knows but others don't know. Xiao Liuzi repeatedly told these two people that if something went wrong in this link, their best efforts would be in vain.
Everyone acted according to the plan, and there were about twenty or thirty old and weak women and children in the village, and about sixty young and strong men. Xiao Liuzi arranged for Du Heng, the owner of the village, to separate the old and weak women and children into men and women, and the women and children went up the mountain into the valley to find dead trees, bamboo forests and mountain fruits with their eyes. The man, led by Du Heng and the one-eyed wolf, collected his belongings and returned to the stockade. If you find a bamboo forest, don't cut it down first, and at a certain time, Xiao Liuzi will personally lead people to cut it down and collect it. In addition, the four kings quickly divided the strong men into two groups. A wave of strength and a wave of flexibility, waiting for Xiao Liuzi to speak. The sixth brother followed the invitation of the long-haired Taoist and came to everyone. Without much gossip, he directly instructed the thin monk and the Tibetan god to be responsible for training the powerful ones, that is, to sprint up and down the slopes outside. About this point inexplicably, the thin monk was puzzled, so he had to listen to the arrangement of the young scholar. Another group of nimble men and horses, led by the long-haired Dao Chang and the flower tongue, were given the task of circling around the mountains and forests, and there were two main types: one in a circle and one in a silk circle. Such a task also baffled the two commanders.
In the evening, everyone came to the tent hall with tired bodies. couldn't help but look at Xiao Liuzi, and his eyes seemed to be full of incomprehension and doubt. When Hua Tongue was about to ask the little scholar, Du Heng, the owner of the village, cleared his throat and said: Jingxuan, we have done all these things you asked us to do today, but I don't know what your intentions are. I don't know if you can nag us tonight? Xiao Liuzi smiled and said, Okay. The strongmen of Willow Stream Fort came to us from the fort like a long snake foraging for food. Having two big Vajra in front of us buys us time, and at the same time, we have time to prepare. The task of the owner of the village and the one-eyed wolf is to clean up the battlefield so that he will not be harassed in the future. The rest of the four adults and I were mainly targeting that team of well-trained martial artists. Our strategy is mainly to beat away the strongman and not kill him, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, and not to form a big enmity because of life and death. Therefore, we only shoot horses and do not shoot people, and remember not to hurt people until we have to. When Xiao Liuzi said this, everyone looked at him with admiration. They are thinking in their hearts, they are worthy of being little scholars, they are indeed well-founded and far-reaching. Xiao Liuzi took a sip of tea and continued: Among the five of us, I am only responsible for shooting and disturbing the strong foot soldiers. The four of them divided this word into four sections. Disperse first, divide it into four gathering points, and then surround the points to send reinforcements. The weapons needed, the mountain people have their own magic methods. Xiao Liuzi laughed when he said this. I thought that I had a bit of the taste of Zhisheng Zhuge Liang.
After a short time, Xiao Liuzi saw that everyone had trained well, so he asked Du Heng, the owner of the village, if he had found a few bamboo forests. Du Heng said, but there are several large bamboo forests around the valley. The next day, Xiao Liuzi took the four King Kongs and their subordinates, led by the one-eyed wolf, to a large bamboo forest. Xiao Liuzi hurriedly ordered someone to cut a few green bamboos and start a demonstration at the moment. While repairing the bamboo pole, he said: A team of people with great strength, like me, look for the bamboo pole with the thickness of chicken eggs, sharpened at one end, smoothed at the other, about a zhang long, not too long. The other team was going to make a weapon called the Wolf Lance like me. This wolf! It was created by the previous general Qi Jiguang, in the Ming Dynasty southeast coast of the anti-Japanese war, wolf milling is one of the weapons made by making full use of local resources, General Qi ordered his subordinates to cut down the local bamboo directly from the roots, keep the dense branches at the upper end of the bamboo, and install the spearhead at the top, form a formation, used to restrain the sword as the main weapon. As a long weapon, the wolf mill first uses the advantage of distance to block the Japanese pirates, so that their katana cannot reach the effective attack distance; secondly, the spearhead and branches can directly attack one or more people, so as to fight more with less, and directly stab the Japanese pirates; third, the formation is tight and unbreakable. When the wolf mills against the wolf mill, other weapons can subdue them together! The little wolf can only admit it in the face of our Qi family army who are equipped with wolf milling. But we can't do that, we just need to transform the wolf into a bamboo pole with the main branches about a zhang, and we don't need to install a spearhead, which will be too sharp and will also hurt people's lives.
After Xiao Liuzi finished saying this, everyone looked at Mr. Xiao with great admiration. Xiao Liuzi continued: We must not only do one per person, but also reserve twice as many weapons that have been damaged and replenished. When I'm done collecting these weapons, I'm going to teach you how to use them. After living for a few days, everyone finally did it with the help of the thin monk, one for each person. Early in the morning, everyone came to the clearing in front of the valley and looked at the little gentleman in unison. As soon as Xiao Liuzi saw this battle, he knew that he wanted to teach them how to use it, so he picked up the bamboo pole and said: Before the action, it will be divided into two teams, the team that follows the thin monk and the funeral god is temporarily called the strong team, and the team that follows the long-haired Taoist and the flower tongue is temporarily called the spirit snake team. Why is this bamboo pole weapon made to smooth one end and sharpen the other? In fact, the function is to use the flat head to push the human body or trip the legs when breaking off, if the opponent is too fierce, turn the bamboo pole upside down, sharpen the side forward, and hold the flat head side in the hand, so that it can not only destroy the enemy's charge, but also enhance the lethality. Secondly, the main function of this wolf is to knock out the weapons in the hands of the enemy, and at the same time trip or push the opponent. The two weapons are used in combination to avoid harming people. In the midst of the enemy, the thin monk and the Tibetan god were in charge of the powerful team at first, sprinting up and down the outer hillside, trying to break the long line into several sections at a time. At this time, another group of nimble men and horses were led by the long-haired Taoist and the flower tongue, and when the men and horses were divided into several sections, the men of this team took the bamboo wolf whisk to knock out the enemy's weapons, and then drove them away directly with the weapons. When there was a mess in all directions, the team members from the previous group hurriedly picked up bamboo poles and drove them away. Because both weapons are more than a foot long, it is easy to drive away these enemies, so that their men and horses have their own weapons. When driving out a certain distance, the owner of the village will lead the reserve team to quickly gather all the horses, weapons and materials back to the village, like this to make a few back and forth, no matter how powerful the team is, they will not dare to harass the village, I think the reputation will also be famous.
When everyone heard this, the big guys all applauded, raised their weapons and shouted: We will win! Xiao Liuzi saw that everyone had such a united heart, and he was really in a mood of hanging up, but he really let go of it. If the men of the village are good at exercising every day, no matter how strong the team is, they will not be afraid, even if a group of well-trained troops come, this is just the delusion of Xiao Liuzi's mind. Because of Xiao Liuzi's proper arrangement and foresight, gradually everyone respectfully called him Mr. Xiao. But as soon as Xiao Liuzi heard such a title, he waved his hand with a smile and said very humbly, where can I be called a gentleman!
