Chapter 27: The Arrow

"Oh, the court sent reinforcements again?"

Dou Yuan's tone was very excited. There was nothing more happy than sending reinforcements, but he was puzzled why he had not received the order.

"The court did not send another reinforcements, but this marquis planned to recruit rural bravery to destroy Dongting water bandits." "Recruiting rural bravery? Could it be that Lintong Hou was the idea of ​​the remnants of the Wu army? This matter is big or small, and Lintong Hou should think twice. If the court censors find out, the crime of private recruitment of soldiers will be seized or dismissed, and the worst will cause disaster to the whole family."

It seems that Dou Yuan is not bad, at least he would remind Yun Xiao about such things.

Liu Qi granted Yun Xiao the right to control the troops in Jiangnan, but if you want to recruit soldiers, you must pass the local vassal kings, which is reasonable and legal. Yun Xiao can't do this now, because the King of Jiangdu is now invited by Xiang Sanqiu for tea, and he doesn't even know where he is. How can he ask him to issue a recruitment order?

"Yun Xiao is not a recruitment, but a spontaneously organized village warrior. The court will not subsidize any armor and weapons for them, but since it helps the court fight, the military rations must be distributed. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers."

"Oh, if that's the case, then there's no problem. As long as the village hero enters Jiangdu, he can receive military rations in the treasury."

"Thank you, Prime Minister Dou."

Yun Xiao thought Dou Yuan was still good, at least Yun Xiao had not noticed that this guy had a hint of hostility towards him. It seemed that Dou Yuan was not affected by the Dou Zhong incident.

Only one day later, Zhang Shiyi brought three thousand people into Jiangdu. Dou Yuan was extremely nervous about Zhang Shiyi's arrival. The remaining soldiers in Jiangdu had reached the point of being unsheathed. He didn't understand why Yun Xiao looked calm and light. If these Wu soldiers rebelled, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Yun Xiao warmly received these so-called local heroes and served them without saying a word.

He just had the hope of gaining his identity. He reintegrated into the warm big family of the Han Empire, and only those who were sick wanted to rebel. The cost was high and there was no guarantee. His wife and children had to suffer with them. As long as the Han Dynasty existed for one day, his daughter and son would always bear the reputation of rebels and do the most humble job, and he would not even have the qualification to study. The 200,000 coalition forces of the King of Wu and King of Chu were defeated under the city of Suiyang. These soldiers did not think they had the strength to fight against the court.

After drinking, the food was gone. Looking at the rice bowl that was licked by a dog, Yun Xiao could imagine how difficult their lives were.

After the meal, Zhang Shiyi insisted on asking the Prime Minister and Yun Xiao to inspect the village warrior. Under the scorching sun, Yun Xiao and Dou Yuan walked past the neat team, although there were leeks hanging on their teeth and kept burping in their mouths, and a guy even made a loud fart.

Yun Xiao didn't care, but just walked through the team of the township bells with Dou Yuan with a stiff expression.

A young man in his early twenties stood in the team, his hands were different from others. Others hung their hands naturally on both sides of their bodies, but this guy held his belly with both hands.

Yun Xiao thought this was the time to show his favor, so he stepped forward and patted the young man's shoulders kindly and smiled: "Young man, are you not eating well and your stomach uncomfortable?"

The tone is gentle and kind, completely like the style of a leader in later generations. At least the general style only has the official position of cadres at the department level or above. According to the inherent routine, the soldiers should be moved to cry and cry bitterly. Then deeply analyze the root of their thoughts and make deep reflection on the mistakes they have made before. Finally, they send their most sincere blessings and greetings to the Han Empire and the leaders themselves in tears, indicating that they will always fight under the red flag of the Han Dynasty, etc.

Some brothers who are crazy may have to shout iconic slogans such as Long Live My Emperor and the Great Han Dynasty's will win. Often, whenever this happens, a group of silly men behind them will buzz their arms and shout, excitedly making a look of righteous indignation.

The ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny. It is not as if Yun Xiao had imagined any scene. The soldier just pressed his stomach and refused to let go, and did not speak. He just looked at Yun Xiao with nervousness on his face. His eyes were as if Little Red Riding Hood saw a big bad wolf.

Zhang Shiyi was immediately angry. It was when he was showing off in front of the new leader. This kid actually gave himself eye drops at this time, which really made him lose all his face.

"Put down your hand, have you ever taught you how to stand?"

Zhang Shiyi's loud shout scared the soldier so much that he shivered. However, he still covered his stomach with both hands, but it seemed to be lowered. From Yun Xiao's perspective, he was just a disciple of the Crotch Cover Sect. Zhang Shiyi was a little anxious and deeply regretted bringing this kid to Jiang Du's eyes.

He walked over with big strides, waved his hand and slapped the young man twice. Seeing that he was still covering his crotch and his waist was bent unnaturally. Zhang Shiyi suddenly pulled his hand away and "clicked" a greasy chicken leg fell to the ground.

The young man immediately burst into tears, and he lowered his head and picked up the chicken legs. He tried hard to blow the dust on it, hoping to blow them away.

Everyone was stunned. They never expected that this guy had a chicken leg in his crotch, which was too heavy.

He stopped Zhang Shiyi who rushed forward and wanted to continue beating. Yun Xiao patted the young man on the shoulder and said, "Why do you hide chicken legs? You like to eat chickens. In the future, you will have chickens to eat after winning battles. This is the promise I have given you."

"My mother likes to eat it. She hasn't eaten meat for a year. When I left home, I cooked a pot of wild vegetables for my mother. I eat meat here, and my mother eats wild vegetables for my mother at home. I want to take it home for my mother to eat."

The young man's words made Zhang Shiyifei's kicked foot stop in the air, and he stopped forcibly disrupting his body's balance and almost fell down.

It was obvious that this was a filial child. Zhang Shiyi looked red and had a thick neck, and looked like constipation. Yun Xiao gave him a quiet look and then patted the young man on the shoulder.

Yun Xiao stood on the platform so that everyone could see him. Thousands of eyes looked at him. Yun Xiao had only experienced this feeling when he was in middle school as a leader.

"You were enemies of the Han Dynasty, and the King of Wu led you to oppose the court. I believe that most of you do not want to oppose the court, but yours did participate in the rebellion. Whether the court will pardon you depends on whether your Majesty's kindness will come to you.

But I promise you that following me to fight will give you a full meal. I will give you a full meal. I will give you my mother and your children and women a full meal. I can't give you too much promise, but I will definitely do what I promised."

Many people joining the army have various purposes. Yun Xiao believes that the people in front of him obey their commands and their purpose is the simplest. Eating a full meal is their only purpose.

In Dou Yuan's opinion, there was no guarantee of being appointed as an official and making a wish, which would be difficult for these people to inspire. He was thinking of saying something to make up for the shortcomings of Lintong Hou's guarantee. Anyway, he was writing a blank check, and he had the final say whether he would cash or not, even if he was cheating on these mud legs, he could not do anything. To put it bluntly, this guy wanted to fool him, but before he could start fooling him, he heard the shouting like a tsunami down the mountain.

The local heroes all shouted with their necks stretched out and died. Several brothers said that they were so excited that their pupils were filled with blood.

The excited local warriors began to show their skills. It seemed that Wu Jun's training level was quite good. The five or six guys picked out by Zhang Shiyi took off the hard bows they were carrying, and the target three hundred steps away was in the center of the red heart. Yun Xiao looked at the eagle standing beside him, and with his level, he could only reach this height. Yun Xiao nodded with satisfaction. The shooting speed of the iron-tied crossbow was too slow, which was an unsolvable problem.

I have long wanted to organize a group of archers to make up for the shortage of slow firing speed. It seems that these people are very suitable. Yun Xiao believes that with archers with faster firing speed, even facing a large number of Hun cavalry, he will have the strength to fight.

Next is the shooting of crossbow arrows. This time, many people stood up. Hundreds of men could easily shoot targets 400 steps away. This is the limit distance for Wu Jun to equip crossbow arrows. Such achievements must have been hard training.

Zhang Shiyi looked at his subordinates proudly and asked Lintong Hou's subordinates to show off their skills. He said modestly that he wanted to compete, but he could tell from his eyes that the provocation of this guy was very obvious.

The game of the bow and arrow is naturally the appearance of the goshawks. The recurve bow transformed by Yun Xiao is much stronger than the Wu Jun's bow. However, due to the limitation of manpower, the range is only 350 steps. The goshawks arrogantly asked a soldier to move the target fifty steps back, and three wolf-toothed arrows were locked in their fingers.

Papa Papa Papa three wolf teeth flew towards the target like a fire-chasing meteor, and the three arrows were all red in the heart. The five or six good men looked at each other and shook their heads. They were not sure to shoot three shots at this distance, and they were the first to hit the mark.

As for crossbow arrows, there is nothing more. Batu led all the Hun men to urge him to come on the stage. He moved the target back a hundred steps, and Zhang Shiyi was stunned. The crossbow camp had been in a lifetime and had never seen a crossbow that could shoot so far. More local heroes thought that the Hun men were entrusted and were waiting to see the jokes of Batu and others.

A row of crossbow arrows shot out at the same time, almost every arrow hit the bull's eye. Those who missed a little bit were full of shame, and looked at Batu with guilt and hoped that the whip would whip to lighter at night.

The comparison between warriors is actually most in line with the spirit of the Olympics. What they emphasize is to be taller, faster and stronger. Only those who exceed themselves will be convinced.

Looking at Zhang Shiyi's growing mouth, you can tell that they have been subdued by the Hun men and the Goshawks. This is very beneficial to future management, at least they will not easily rebel. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
