Marrying blindly and by mistake, the general’s misplaced wife

Chapter 127
The crowd of a thousand people was silent, and no one moved a muscle.

Xia Chixiao was not surprised at all. He added: "The bandits have been entrenched in Anpingzhai for a long time, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. Aren't your parents, relatives, neighbors and friends who have been harmed by them? Don't you want to kill all those bandits? Get rid of it and let your relatives live a peaceful life?"

There was silence, but unlike the silence just now, many people's eyes changed.

"As soldiers, you have responsibilities on your shoulders and have blood in your heart. Or have you lost your blood? Or are you willing to live a mediocre and useless life?"

There was a trace of contempt in the depths of Mei Shijie's eyes unconsciously.

What is the bloody nature of a soldier?They are a garrison and have never fought a war almost from their inception until now.Everyone knows that there will definitely be casualties when fighting bandits.Especially the gangsters in Anping Village are extremely vicious.

Do you want to get these people who have barely held weapons to fight him with just a few words?What a beautiful thought!

"My commander has clear rewards and punishments. If you follow my commander to suppress the bandits, even if you only make a small contribution, you will be rewarded accordingly! In addition, while you are following my commander to suppress the bandits, all of you will have your military pay doubled."

At this time, a man in the garrison suddenly said: "General Xia, will you die if you go to fight the bandits?"

"Of course there will be casualties." Xia Chixiao said without hesitation: "On the battlefield, there are real swords and real guns. I can't guarantee that each of you will not die, but I can guarantee that the casualty rate will be the lowest!"

"If something unexpected happens, the military will provide generous pensions to your family members! If your relatives want to join the military, they will be given priority! Now, those who are willing to go, stand on the left!"

Amidst Xia Chixiao's sonorous and powerful voice, someone hesitantly walked out of the queue and stood to the left.

There was a fifth one, and then there were four or five more sparsely.

But in the end, the total number of people was less than 100, and there were even several children aged [-] or [-] among them.

Those who stood still, some had numb faces, some had indifferent expressions, some had fun-loving smiles in their eyes, and some were careless, not standing, and not looking like a sergeant...

Mei Shijie almost laughed out loud in his heart, so naive!I'm dawdling around every day, I get military pay, I can eat well and live a long life, so who is going to work hard?

It is said that there will be generous pensions after death, but won’t they themselves not be able to enjoy it?Who would trade their lives for these?

At this time, among the silent crowd, someone suddenly said: "There are many people in those cottages. I heard that there are not many officers and soldiers, and you are so young as the leader. It is difficult for us to believe you!"

Xia Chixiao glanced at the group of people indifferently and said: "When I left the capital, the emperor allowed me to second the garrison. In fact, I don't need to tell you so much. As long as I give a military order, you must go with me. But I, Commander Don’t be a coward or a coward. So I’ll give you a chance to choose for yourself! If you don’t want to go, I will never force you.”

"We didn't say we wouldn't go, but I heard that the young master from the capital was spoiled and had no abilities. He would only let us stand in front of him and die! We are not cowards, but we don't want to die without knowing it!"

Xia Chixiao stretched out his hand and said: "Bow and arrow!"

Huo Ci immediately handed over the bow and arrow.

Xia Chixiao drew the bow and nocked an arrow. The bow opened like a full moon, and the arrow flew away from the string and flew into the sky.

Everyone looked up and saw arrows shooting straight at an eagle hovering in the sky like meteors.

The eagle seemed to sense danger and flapped its wings suddenly, trying to escape.At this moment, the arrow arrived and penetrated straight into the eagle's neck, causing the eagle to fall straight down.With a snap, it landed on the field.

Looking at the lifeless dead eagle, the garrison was silent, and Mei Shijie also opened his eyes wide. Is this archery so strong?
Xia Chixiao put down his bow and said in a deep voice: "Now that you are under my command, you are my brother. I will not let anyone stand in the way and die. Under the military order, I am the same as you. When we charge into battle, I am also with you!"

Immediately, several people in the garrison moved to the left, and then there was cheering again.

About [-]% of the people came this time, and [-]% were still hesitating.Xia Chixiao said: "Huo Ci!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"Incorporate them into the army. In the next two days, you will be responsible for conducting emergency training on them!"

"Yes!"

Huo Ci walked up to the more than [-] garrison troops and said, "They are all here. Listen to my orders and run!"

The more than [-] people followed Huo Ci and soon ran out of sight.

Mei Shijie said: "General Xia, here I am!"

"Do you want Mei Shou to come together or stay?"

"Of course I'm with them! But I still have some things to deal with!"

"Return to the team before dark, otherwise you won't come!"

"The last will know!"

Xia Chixiao said: "Master Xia, please prepare food, grass and military supplies as soon as possible! I will send someone to get it tomorrow!"

"Don't worry, General Xia, I will definitely handle the matter!" Xia Xinhe said very cooperatively.

Xia Chixiao nodded and said: "After the bandits are exterminated, if there are any bandits captured alive, they will need to be interrogated by Master Xia and all the others to prove their identity and punish them according to the law. When people arrive, please be more urgent, Master Xia!" "

"Definitely, definitely!" Xia Xinhe's attitude became even better.

Xia Chixiao then took the people away.

The master said: "It's not that there are less than 3000 officers and soldiers. Why is General Xia so confident?"

Xia Xinhe smiled and said: "A descendant of the Hou family, the nephew of the imperial concubine, and the cousin of the current eldest prince, he has a distinguished status. Xu has read a few more military books, doesn't he feel confident?"

Tong knew: "As far as I know, this disciple of the Hou family has led troops. He was also from the army in the northern border. He made meritorious service, recognized his ancestors and returned to the clan, and returned to the capital to receive rewards. He was successful as a young man and was one of the younger generations in the capital. Among them, he has a great reputation."

Xia Xinhe said with a smile: "When Hou Men recognizes his son, he has to put a few more pieces of gold on his face."

The judge hesitated and said: "It is said that he came from Yanping County to suppress bandits. All the bandits in Yanping County were wiped out! He should... have some skills!"

"There are only a few bandits in Yanping County? They are all incompetent." Xia Xinhe shook his head: "If he had come to our side first, he might have been a little more humble. It was the mob in Yanping County that fueled his arrogance. , you can see how arrogant he is when he actually wants to destroy Ping'an Pingzhai in three days with less than [-] men!"

Mei Shijie wondered: "Did I miss it? I didn't hear that he is going to attack Anping Village in three days."

Xia Xinhe laughed and said, "Just now he was going to conduct two days of emergency training for the garrison, and he also said that he would come to collect food and military supplies tomorrow. Isn't this very clear?"

Mei Shijie was speechless: "I'm new here, I don't even know what's going on in Anping Village, and yet I have to attack it three days later. How many lives are not enough to spare? Does he know where the Anping Village is?"
