Wang Pu's injuries recovered for the most part, but he was too weak to ride a horse, so he prepared a carriage and reported that the Shenjia battalion had traveled outside the city of Taiyuan, and was about to go out of the city to join the army but encountered a big lock at the city gate and was trapped in the city. He had no choice but to go to Taiyuan to find the general, and it was inevitably a little embarrassing for old acquaintances to meet.

"Lord Gong, you want to go out of the city, please let me go. Wang Pu said lightly.

"The governor has an order, lest the military horses crossing the border disturb the people, you need to take strict precautions, close the city gates, the king is moderate, I heard that there are your soldiers outside, the court gave you two thousand soldiers, I roughly counted, there are only 800 people outside, you can't help but eat a little too much, this is not a guard, in the future, you will be held accountable for defeat, even if your father can't protect you, hahaha." Gong Wenda looked proud, as if he saw Wang Pubing defeated and imprisoned.

"Does Lord Gong have clairvoyance, can he count the number of people from such a distance? Wang Puyan looked out of the city, only a vague silver line loomed among the grass, although there were only 800 people, but each person pushed a wheelbarrow, rolling up the dust, and the number of people seemed to be thousands from a distance.

"Hmph, boy, sharp teeth and sharp mouths are useless on the battlefield, you be careful. Gong Wenda viciously squeezed out some words from between his teeth.

"Then how can I get out of the city, if you don't let me out of the city and delay the suppression of thieves, hum, the court will send someone to ask you. Wang Pu coldly threatened.

"I've already prepared a basket for you, hang it down. "

"You. Wang Pu was angry and didn't come anywhere, his wounds had not healed soon, he couldn't ride a horse, and the carriage couldn't be hung down with a basket, so what kind of travel did he take out of the city.

Looking at Gong Wenda's treacherous look, his heart struck, this guy looks burly and rough, but he is a sinister and cunning person, he goes out to fight by himself, the Qin family stays in Taiyuan, don't fall for the plot, he turned around and whispered to a pro-soldier for a moment, this pro-soldier was ordered to hang down the city with a basket, and went straight to the army, and waited for a moment, there was a whining horn sound from the silver snake, and the soldiers stopped by brushing and brushing, followed by a rapid war drum, eight hundred soldiers began to brush and brush their armor, and this change caused a burst of cheers from the people in the city, formed a closer formation, and at this time, everyone found out that the number of this army was actually very small, and they couldn't help but be disappointed, Gong Wenda sneered. I saw that this small army began to move slowly, trotting towards Taiyuan City in unison, the people at the head of the city were a little tired of seeing it, what is there to see about such a small "big army", it is better to go home to accompany the mother-in-law to make zongzi, and the crowd dispersed one after another.

When the army and horses got closer, the people and soldiers on the city gradually changed color, these were ghosts and people, and there was a sound when they walked, and the rumble became louder and louder, and the ground began to shake faintly.

This scene of slaughter frightened Wang Pudu, where did it come from such a loud noise, and after thinking about it, he understood that the soldiers were wearing iron armor, and the sound of these heavy iron armors together was not a joke, it was like a noise that shook the eardrums.

There are many people in the city who are afraid, sneaking away, hiding at home and closing the door, this year the thief is like combing the soldier is like washing, the soldier is more terrible than the thief, although Taiyuan is far away from the place where the thieves and soldiers fight, but the little people don't understand what the situation outside is, but don't be happy and sad to be unprovoked.

"Boy, you dare to rebel even with these hundreds of soldiers, believe it or not, Lao Tzu cut you. Gong Wenda suddenly roared and pulled out his waist knife. Perhaps it was because he was shocked by the murderous aura of the military horses outside the city, and he was afraid of Wang Pu's backstage, so he didn't dare to pull out the knife. The soldiers beside Wang Pu took the first step to pull out the knife holder between them, and Gong Wenda saw that he couldn't take advantage of it, so he took a step back.

"Hehe, I'm just showing the people of Taiyuan the prestige of my Ming army, boosting the people's confidence in the imperial court, and teaching them to know that the thieves will definitely be defeated. Lord Gong, you have to be careful, don't talk nonsense, don't do things randomly, as the saying goes, if you don't die, you won't die, you can remember. Wang Pu sneered and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

Seeing that Gong Wenda was deterred, Wang Pu was very satisfied with the effect of this military parade, and he could not retreat from this kind of treacherous villain, otherwise there would be endless troubles. After the order was given to the military horses outside the city, the formation was completed, and suddenly there was silence, and the needle drop could be heard. Wang Pu laughed, this is his army, and it is destined to be famous in the future.

In May, the villagers of Yashi Village, Pinglu County, Fu Wudou, a well-known honest man near and far, was very sad and indignant, his mother-in-law died, because of the lack of green and yellow, last year's harvest was not good, the government raised taxes again, the family was out of grain for ten days, ate ten days of wild vegetables dipped in salt water is really not consumed, the mother-in-law broke into the landlord's house, grabbed a few nest heads and fled home, the landlord Fu Lao was furious and came to the door, kicked the mother-in-law, but the mother-in-law was weak and fell to the ground with a convulsion and died. Fu Wudou went up to theorize, was slapped by Master Fu, and his intuition was whirling and he fainted to the ground. When he woke up, he saw the whole family convulsing around him. Fu Wudou looked left and right, the whole family was swollen, only the eye sockets were deeply embedded, this kind of face he knew, it was not far from death. Sighed, went into the house and took out a kitchen knife, he wanted to go to the landlord's house for revenge, just stepped out of the threshold but slowly retreated back, the landlord's family has a lot of strong Zhuang Ding, he usually can't beat, turned his head and looked at the mother-in-law who had died on the bed, this is his father used his life to accumulate five taels of silver to marry home, is a good daughter-in-law, although ugly, the heart is really good, gave birth to three babies are very lively and lovely, remembering the eyes of the mother-in-law when she went out, that is the decisive look, now I understand, she is sacrificing her life for these three babies to earn her life。

"Wudou, your mother-in-law is dead, I, the youngest baby in my family is also dead, let's change, my baby is thirty pounds, you give me thirty pounds. Uncle Kui from the neighboring village knocked on the door and came in, pulled Fu Wudou aside, and discussed with him in a whisper.

"No, that's not right, we can't. "Fu Wudou can't accept it.

"It's all, it's all on it. Uncle Kui looked helpless.

"If you stay up for another month or two, the autumn harvest will begin. Fu Wudou gritted his teeth and said, "Go and borrow a bucket of rice from the old thief." "

"Then your family's land will be gone, this year's harvest is not good, the Liaoyu government has risen again, and when you pay the imperial grain, what will you pay back, either sell the land, or sell the baby." Uncle Kui said disapprerovingly.

"Dad, sell me, sell me, and you can eat white noodles for your younger brothers. The big girl suddenly came out from behind and said.

Fu Wudou looked back at the big girl, speechless.

"There is a talent in my village, he is a

good person, his mother-in-law is sick, there must be someone to serve him, sell the big girl, so that he will not suffer, and it is also a way to live. Uncle Kui said suddenly.

"Is it really not to hit people?".

"That Xiu is Mr. Private School, and occasionally beats the boy with a ruler, but he doesn't have much strength to hit him. "

Seeing that Fu Wudou was a little moved, Uncle Kui made persistent efforts and said: "That Xiucai is not rich, in case his mother-in-law dies, maybe he can let your eldest girl continue." "

"It's unthinkable. Fu Wudou said categorically, his girl was born ugly, and a decent person like Xiucai would not look down on her.

"If you sell it for a good price, Wudou, you can lend me some and let me survive these two months. "

Wang Pu's carriage was left in the city, and he could only make a simple sedan chair out of bamboo poles and chairs, and when the soldiers walked, he sat on the sedan chair, and couldn't help but think of the image of the Kuomintang officer in the movie.

"Tell Wang Yan that the fire gun still needs to be built more, and the inventory will be stored, so that the army can be rapidly expanded in the future. Wang Pu said to Lin Changxing, who was taking a notebook to record. The advantage of musketeers is that they can be formed in an army after only one or two months of training, and the physical requirements for soldiers are low, so it is easy to recruit soldiers. At present, 300 musketeers have a rifled flintlock firebolt, after the machine tool has been debugged by Luo Qingpu, the effective range of these muskets has reached 80 steps, equivalent to 100 meters, it is the most relied on by Wang Pu, but only 95 people are wearing iron armor among the 300 heavy armored infantry, and the other 205 people can only wear all kinds of armor, these armor is the inventory of Yanmen guards in the early years, and many have been rotted and rusty, so Lao Yang advocates making more iron armor, and the manufacture of fire guns is suspended. But Wang Pu categorically refused, the heavy infantry has too high requirements for the physique of soldiers, and it is difficult to recruit qualified soldiers among the homeless people who are generally malnourished for a long time, and it takes long-term training to master the skills of Modao, and it takes a lot of time to train into an army, considering that Jiannu will soon enter Koushanxi, he has no time. In Wang Pu's mind, he imagined that in the future, in the face of the overwhelming iron cavalry of Jiannu, a small number of heavy infantry would be sent to death, and only a large number of musketeers would be able to defeat the enemy.

"Song Yang's

navy has news, Fujian's sea ships have been completed at the end of last month, and are expected to arrive in Pinglu County in ten days, but there are no guns on it, Song Yang is a little afraid of accidents at sea, he said that the goods on it are valuable, if they are robbed, he will be ruined. Judging from Lin Changxing's relays, Song Yang was very resentful.

"You tell him to rest assured, with those dozens of firearms, as long as he doesn't encounter the Tessie warship, it is enough to walk sideways on the sea. Wang Pu smiled confidently, he specially sent someone to investigate, at this time the pirates were still mainly based on springboard combat, and they were taught to be human beings in the face of the fire gun formation. And it's not that Wang Pu doesn't want to send the cannon over, he really doesn't have the money to bribe the checkpoints along the way, to some extent, in order to form this Shenjia battalion, he has become a poor egg. Fortunately, the tobacco smuggling business has already gained an eyebrow, just wait for him to lead the army to defeat the mountain tiger Xu Hongjie and control the dock in Pinglu County. His father, Wang Wei, mentioned in his letter that only the wharf in Pinglu County in the middle reaches of the Yellow River was deep enough to berth 200 ships, and that if he wanted to do tobacco business, he had to take this wharf first. At that time, tobacco was continuously shipped from the south and sold to various places, and it was not a problem to make money every day.

"My lord, the thief has moved. At the head of Pinglu County, someone shouted.

"Well, reinforcements must have arrived, okay. Seeing that the thieves under the city retreated to the south one after another, the county commander Chen Shiliang was overjoyed, but he pretended to be calm and smiled. The thieves surrounded for a month, this month, he was unable to eat, could not sleep at night and lost more than a dozen pounds, the situation was dangerous, every time he had a midnight dream, cold sweat, three months ago at dusk heard that there were thieves on the dock to make trouble, he immediately ordered to close the city gate, and the county's fort guards, a total of three hundred households, fifty soldiers were called into the county in time, Chen Shiliang begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to persuade the rich to pay for his life, and temporarily put together a rabble of 1,000 people. A few days later, the spies reported that the troublemaker was a local ruffian, Chen Shi's conscience was very determined, and he was even more annoyed and ashamed, and personally led the army to the dock to beg for thieves, but the thieves were cunning, and actually attacked with fire, and his army was burned and returned with a miserable defeat. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, the city fell, and the officials needed to die. It was about his life, so he couldn't be afraid, until the palace newspaper learned that the court finally did not forget him and sent an elite Shenjia battalion, which made him feel more relieved and had some appetite.

Wang Pu did not arrive at the city of Pinglu until May 10, because the Shenjia battalion was initially established, in order to avoid being ambushed, he walked very slowly all the way, only to see that the gate of the county town was closed, and the surrounding rubble was debris and gray charcoal, but there was no thief army, and the city tower was still the banner of the Ming Dynasty.

"Lord Temperance, I have long reminded you that it is not necessarily a good thing for Jane to be in the emperor's heart, you have to walk slowly, you have to walk so leisurely, the thief army and even the turtle have crawled away, the saint is staring at us, waiting for good news, teaching the saint to wait for a long time is not necessarily good for you and me. "The prison army sent by the imperial court is Huang Dahu, although the name is domineering, but he is thin, it can be seen that the imperial court sent the prison army mainly to see loyalty rather than force value.

"Lord Huang, the soldiers are very fast, and the

long-range attack is the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, my soldiers are all new soldiers, shouldn't they be cautious. "Wang Pu doesn't like this prison army very much, there are too many problems with the literati, and he always thinks that fighting a war is a clever plan, and he actually has some bad ideas along the way.

"Young master, you see. A pro-soldier shouted. I saw a basket rolled out of the city wall, and two armored soldiers were hung from it. When the visitor was brought to him, Wang Pu saw clearly that one of them was a civil official, wearing armor but wearing a county official crown, which looked nondescript, which made Wang Pu appreciate this person a little.

"Dare to ask if the Shenjia battalion is temperate in person, and the Yanmen guards guerrilla Wang Pu. Chen Shiliang arched his hand and asked, although the county order only has seven grades, but the Ming Dynasty is noble and cheap, and in the face of the three rank generals, it is still a peace ceremony.

"In the next place, this is Lord Huang of the Imperial War. Wang Pu also bowed his hand, and by the way, he introduced the prison army around him.

"Huang Taifu. "

"Brother Chen. "The two civil officials are committedly friends and friends, which shows that the civilian clique is quite tacit, or instinctively rejects the generals.

"Where are the thieves now, and how many are there? Wang Pu didn't want to think about it, so he immediately asked.
