Chapter 007: Township Army
Early the next morning, Qin Xianglin summoned more than 400 people from all over the village to the threshing floor in the village, and told everyone that Qin Feng was going to form a township army to resist the robbers. And persuaded the strong men in the village to join the township army as much as possible to defend the land and protect their families. But the response was not positive. Although the villagers of Qinjia Village hated the robbers to the core, they were also terribly afraid. In the eyes of these honest villagers, the robbers are all vicious and murderous villains who do not blink an eye. If you want to fight them with real swords and guns, you are not an opponent at all, and you can only give your life in vain. Everyone stood silently on the threshing floor.
Qin Xianglin was very angry, he didn't expect everyone to react like this. Angrily said to everyone: "Now that robbers are rampant, if it weren't for Qin Feng and others to help them yesterday, several women in our village would have been poisoned by the robbers." If you don't rise up and resist, maybe your own wives and children will be next. ”
These words obviously touched the villagers. Yes, maybe the next time the robbers will take them away, it will be their relatives. Everyone began to talk about each other. In fact, although the villagers are cowardly, they are not completely bloodless. It's just that they have lived a life of farmers since they were born, and they haven't touched their swords and guns much, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy. The thought of fighting for one's life with those fierce robbers inevitably makes everyone feel scared.
After a while, several young students began to be excited. However, none of them wanted to be the first to speak, and they all looked left and right in the hope that someone would take the lead.
That's when a couple of people who turned the tide appeared.
The women who were rescued yesterday, as well as Qin Shuang and Qin Yu, stood up together. Qin Yu pulled her husband Zhang Tianliang to Qin Feng.
"Brother Qin, my family Tianliang signed up to join the army. ”
Qin Shuang was even more ruthless, and said to Qin Feng: "Brother, I think you just only accept female soldiers, and there will be no men in our village." Look at this one by one, even if their wives and children were killed by robbers, they didn't dare to say a word. I'll sign up, count me in. ”
The little girl said a few words, and the men present were all flushed, and they couldn't wait to shrink their heads into the crotch of their pants.
The women who were rescued yesterday were also very spicy. They all grabbed their husbands and scolded.
"Da Niu, you are still not a man, if it weren't for Qin Engong yesterday, I am afraid that I would have been sold to the county kiln. If you dare not join the village army, you will not be allowed to go to the old lady's bed from tonight. ”
"Erkui, you are also a dignified seven-foot man, you have a big scar on your head, what are you afraid of. If you don't want to join the army, I will take the child back to my parents' house tonight, and I will never come back in this life. ”
"Sanshunzi, don't talk nonsense to the old lady. To go, to go, to break your dog's legs. ”
"What? You're afraid that the robbers will kill us, and there will be no one to take care of our mother and daughter. Pull it down, just take care of our mother and daughter like you. Didn't you hear people saying that there are no men in our village, you are shameless, my mother can't afford to lose this person. ”
"Brother Four Tigers, go ahead. If you die on the battlefield, I will keep you a widow for the rest of your life. He will also tell his son that his father is a hero. If you dare not go, the old lady not only wants her son to deny you as a bad father, but also gives you a green hat. ”
......
Speaking of which, no matter how timid the men of Qinjia Village were, they all stood up one after another. They knew that if they didn't sign up for the township army again, they were afraid that they wouldn't have to be men in the future, and the white eyes of the whole village would castrate themselves.
There are 418 people in Qinjia Village, and 58 sturdy men between the ages of 16 and 35, all of whom are registered by Qin Feng.
The team is pulled up, and there must be a decent name. Yuan Yun said with a smile: "This is Qinjia Village, and it is a team formed by your Qin commander, so let's simply call it Qin's army." ”
The world is so wonderful, no one could have imagined that a few years later, the Qin family army that was powerful in the world would be established in this poor and remote place. I didn't expect that this army composed of a group of cowardly farmers who had to join the army because of their wives' obscenity and cowardice would be able to sweep through Kyushu and even dare to fight against the gods after many years.
......
On the day of the establishment of the Qin Family's army, Yuan Yun and the eldest young master of Yuan Yun were in front of the recruits.
Yesterday the bandits returned to the camp and saw that the camp had been destroyed and their companions had been slaughtered. saw a few big characters left by Qin Feng on the ground, and immediately ran to Qinjia Village to seek revenge. For so many years, no villager dared to be so arrogant in front of them, not only killing people but also leaving their names.
Qin Feng had expected that this gang of robbers was coming, so he led everyone up to the low wall at the entrance of the village.
Led by yesterday's robber leader Xie Lao Er, who was riding a horse and shouting outside the low wall, asking the villagers to hand over the murderer who killed last night.
Qin Feng visually measured the distance. The robbers were about seventy paces from the low wall. The effective range of an ordinary bow and arrow is one hundred and forty steps, a good strong bow can shoot up to two hundred and twenty steps, and a true master can even shoot nearly three hundred steps. To dare to walk around within seventy paces without any protective gear and without heavy armor is simply looking for death. He took a bow and arrow from the villagers beside him, intending to take Xie Laoer's life.
In terms of archery, Qin Feng thinks that he is not as good as Yuan Yun. However, at a distance of only seventy paces, he felt that even with his eyes closed, he could shoot Xie Lao Er through it. But as soon as he got the bow and arrow handed by the villagers, he was stupid. Where is this bow and arrow! A broken bamboo, after the two ends are tightened, a hemp rope is simply tied as a bowstring. A bow like this might be fine for shooting rabbits, but it's no joke if you actually go into battle to kill enemies.
Qin Feng bent his bow and arrows, and there was a crisp sound of "pop". The longbow could not withstand his tremendous force and broke into two pieces.
Yuan Yun next to him saw that Qin Feng had missed, and he was willing to let go of this opportunity to show his face in front of the recruits and many beauties of Qinjia Village. Immediately took three longbows from the hands of several other villagers. He put the three bows together, and when he raised his hand, he shot an arrow at Xie Laoer.
Yuan Yun's archery skills were the best in the entire Black Flag Army, and he didn't even aim at such a close distance, and the long arrows had already flown out with a shock of the bowstring. Xie Lao Er participated in the first call and was shot at the center of the mouth.
However, it was his luck, although Yuan Yun put the three longbows together, those earthen bows were too bad, and they just shot the arrows to about seventy paces. When he arrived at Xie Biao, he didn't have much power, and he was wearing willow leaf chain mail, which offset the power of some of the arrows, and only then did he pick up a life. If it was a longbow used in the army, at a distance of seventy paces, even if he was wearing heavy armor, with Yuan Yun's ability, he could easily shoot through him with an arrow. But even so, the arrow was not easy. The arrow had sliced through the chain mail and had pierced more than two inches into the flesh, almost hitting the heart.
Blood continued to flow down the cracks of the chain mail, and Xie Lao Er felt a sharp pain in his chest, and he almost fell off his horse.
"Retreat!"
He endured a sharp pain in his chest and quickly retreated a hundred paces away with the rest of the bandits.
