Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 209

Zhao Qi put on his clothes, and couldn't help grinning when he touched the wound on his shoulder. The twisting just now, in fact, the wound had already hurt and the hairs on his back stood up, so he just refused to say anything.

The platoon leader hurriedly helped him to sit down, Zhao Qi smiled, and said to the platoon leader proudly: "I borrow the ground to hold riding boots and carry people to talk. I learned this skill from Brother Lehe. The Lord is just, but which official would not like to listen to some flattery? It not only encourages the brothers, but also makes the owner happy when he sees it, right?"

The little platoon leader said: "Sure enough, Seventh Brother is smart, otherwise how can you be the company commander?"

This little platoon leader's learned and sold method of holding riding boots really made Zhao Qi feel proud: "To tell you the truth, I also want to be promoted to the company commander early. It's not comfortable to be an agent."

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Zhao Qi whispered to the platoon leader: "There is a widow Chen in Dawangzhuang, have you seen it?"

"Who, oh, is that the one in the east of the village, Zhou Zheng?"

"That's right, I saw that Widow Chen looks upright and good at giving birth. I have already found out that her husband-in-law passed away at the age of last year. There is only one woman and two children aged seven or eight in the family. We were on her field the day before yesterday." In the battle with the horse bandit, all her crops were trampled this year, it is a time of poverty."

"If I become a company commander, I will get paid every year. To be a company commander in our protection army is considered an outstanding figure in ten miles and eight villages, right? I will ask the matchmaker to tell him how many stones Food, and promised not to change the surnames of her two sons, how can you not coax her to follow me under such conditions? By then, I will also be a small family with a family. Wasn’t that why I came down from Yinmachuan at that time?”

The platoon leader nodded again and again, this time it wasn't for praising Zhao Qi's riding boots, they were all bandits who joined Sunjiazhuang from Yinmachuan, if given a choice, who would want to become a bandit?In Sunjiazhuang, they all saw the hope of their future life, so they all cherished it very much. As long as there is a little chance, no matter what age people, most of them want to live a normal and comfortable life.

After eating, Sun Xin asked the peasants and soldiers to take turns to garrison the position, and retreated to the rear in batches to sleep. The peasants and soldiers of Sunjiazhuang had done this kind of night defense exercise many times before, so the whole process was orderly.

This surprised Xiao Chen Dutong and Wang Yuanwai. In their impression, the soldiers were the most vulgar characters. The main task of the soldiers in the Song Dynasty was to send them to death in Hetian County. They basically belonged to the category of hard labor. Criminals, or at best a bunch of lawless rangers, enlisted in the army, where robbery and violence were almost synonymous.

The so-called discipline is all restrained under strict punishment laws. How have you ever seen such a guarding army, which can be stationed and changed in an orderly manner without the supervision of officers holding guns and sticks.

Everyone felt that it was a pity that such a good team was wasted here by Sun Xin.

There was already a little mist in the air on the October night.

In the middle of the night, Zhao Qi called up the soldiers of his second company and walked slowly to the fourth fence to change defenses.

"Brothers, keep your eyes wide open. Although we are not afraid of him, those people are also cunning and cunning. It must be that the bandits will not come at night, and they want to sleep until the guard is over."

Almost all of the Second Company was seriously injured in the last battle, so many of the current soldiers are farmers and soldiers who have been replenished in the past two days. They haven't fought many battles, and they have enough rest. After hearing Zhao Qi's words, the brothers are all loud I answered.

Afterwards, each of them went to sit on the ground, and Zhao Qi leaned on a railing of the barbed wire, being careful not to let the sharp wire get caught on his clothes.

The iron wires of this barbed wire are all made of alloys with some improved metals added. The hardness is very high. It is just a small barb that can scrape human skin to pieces. When the barbed wire was installed today, everyone saw how powerful this thing is. of.

Sitting next to the barbed wire fence, Zhao Qi looked at the full moon in the sky and couldn't help dreaming about the life of his wife and children in the future.

The night was very long, and their post had to be guarded until the early hours of the morning. The fire cage next to it was blazing, and two soldiers with bright posts and one with dark posts walked back and forth in the secret place.

We chatted with each other a little at first, but gradually as time passed, we talked less and less.

The peasants and soldiers are all young men at the age of [-] Lang. Although they have slept for several hours before, people of this age are always short of sleep.

Near the early morning, when the sky was darkest, many people began to peck at the rice.

Zhao Qi walked through the crowd a few times with a command knife in his hand, and woke up the sleepy soldiers before returning to sit by the railing, listening to the chirping of insects and birds. When the wind blows, gusts of cool air gather in the forest, blowing slowly, making people feel very comfortable.

In this environment, Zhao Qi gradually felt that his eyelids were a bit heavy. It seemed to be very quiet tonight. Now that it was almost dawn, the group of bandits probably wouldn't attack tonight, right?

Just as Zhao Qi's eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, he suddenly heard a clang.

Zhao Qi felt his hairs start to rise in an instant, and his first reaction when he opened his eyes wide was that the surrounding light had dimmed a lot.

The fire cage, the fire cage is gone!
When more noises came, Zhao Qi looked in the direction of his company's clear post.

The brothers who were supposed to be standing guard had already disappeared at this time, and the secret whistle didn't find it. I don't know if they were also killed. Zhao Qi had no time to deal with them, and his first reaction was to ring the gong on his waist.

"Enemy attack!"

It seemed that the entire position woke up in an instant, and enemies from nowhere kept appearing in front of the fourth barbed wire fence. Zhao Qi was still one of the main attack directions of the enemy. Wow, click, the wooden stake that Zhao Qi was originally leaning on was crushed. It was suddenly pushed down, and the bandits fighting to pull out the stakes all poured in through the gap.

A bandit with a big knife slashed at Zhao Qi. Zhao Qi hurriedly lowered himself, then grabbed the musket in his hand and stabbed forward fiercely.

With a click, the musket collided with the man's armor, stabbing him to the ground, and the bandit screamed and wanted to get up, only then did Zhao Qi realize that there was no bayonet attached to his gun.

At this time he could not give the order to draw the bayonet.

The fourth barbed wire fence was originally a bait laid out by Sun Xin, and it was very weak. Zhao Qi and his team's task was not to defend at all, but to attract bandits to attack here.

Although they were beaten by surprise, after hearing Zhao Qi's golden drum, the soldiers of the second company hurriedly followed Zhao Qi into a gap in the third barbed wire according to the position of the previous drill.

The bandits behind him obviously had studied the structure of the barbed wire a long time ago, and when they came to pick up the piles, they carried dental pliers with them, and someone protected their body with a shield, and slammed into the barbed wire.

Cursing sounded endlessly, obviously the group of bandits were also dripping with blood from the barbed wire, but the cursing was right, the fourth barbed wire soon had gaps one by one.

Zhao Qi and the others ran back to the back position desperately, then picked up the iron wire on the ground to reinforce the gap they entered, and as they fled, there was an increasingly loud sound of horseshoes behind their ears. More than 200 horses are gathering here.
