Chapter 653: Don't leave when you go back
In the spacious house where he originally lived, Yang Chendong listened to Hu Mang's report while walking outside. When he learned that there were more than 30,000 people, Yang Chendong smiled, this first step was so successful, and as long as everything went well, the power was only in front of him.
At nine o'clock in the morning, as soon as the hour of trial arrived, soldiers of the Five-Star Army wearing grass-green military uniforms began to appear around the square one after another. Along with them, Yang Chendong and other senior officers in the army wearing a golden cloak appeared.
As soon as they appeared, they walked to the row of tables and chairs that had been set up in front of the square and sat down. On either side of them, standing were a group of guards and cold front members holding the 95-style and wearing body armor.
In contrast to the heavy armor used in other armies to protect themselves, mercenaries wear bulletproof vests that are invulnerable and seem to be much lighter than armor.
This kind of vest is an imitation of the body armor in Okura, produced by the Red Castle Arsenal, and it is said that in order to ensure its quality and characteristics, even if there is a sample, it took tens of millions of taels of silver to develop it when it was developed, and I don't know how much manpower it took to develop. Even so, the cost of each piece of body armor is still very high, and until now, unless it is a member of Leng Feng who has undergone strict training and assessment, only one can be used, and even auxiliary soldiers are not qualified to wear it.
It's just a piece of self-defense clothing, and the research and development alone cost nearly 10 million taels of silver, which is equivalent to the normal treasury income of the Northern Ming or Southern Ming Dynasty for three years.
Of course, it goes without saying that there are benefits to having such a thing, unless the body part being attacked is the eyes, the mouth, etc., otherwise, it is really difficult to hurt the cold front. Because they are not only wearing body armor, but they also carry a helmet called Kevlar (Yang Chendong himself named it an immortal helmet) that was developed together with the helmet on their heads.
With the advent of undead helmets and body armor, the personal safety of the Cold Front fighters has been raised to a higher level, so you can imagine how they will show their powerful combat power and amazement on the battlefield.
After all, Shuixian Town has been ruled by the Jurchens and Mongolian cavalry for so long, no one dares to guarantee whether there are extremists here, and the importance of guards and Leng Feng has been highlighted, not to mention the existence of the sixth young master, his safety is always the first important thing in the Yang family, even if it is arranged for many people to appear on both sides, it is not too much.
For these generals and soldiers who suddenly appeared, the residents and people of Narcissus Town naturally had a chill. Although these people had calm faces, and no one showed the slightest intention of threatening their safety, even if they went there, a natural aura of slaughter came to their faces, which made these people who were still chattering and talking non-stop take the initiative to silence, and the scene became quiet for a while.
This kind of quietness fell in the eyes of Chen Bo, the political commissar of the Third Regiment, who was ordered to preside over the meeting, and he was naturally very satisfied. Taking this opportunity, he held a simple loudspeaker and shouted, "I declare that the public trial meeting is now open, and the first gun is fired to pay tribute to the people of Narcissus who have been killed and unjustly killed, and may their souls be at peace after today's meeting." All the musketeers obey the order, fire three shots, and release! ”
Horn Horn!
A company of cold front soldiers who had been prepared, standing on one side of the square, raised their guns in unison and fired a volley into the sky after the order was given, and the formation was extremely uniform, giving people the feeling that a hundred people were like one person.
Not only is the movement neat, but even the frequency and speed of the shot is the same. Although hundreds of people fired shots, when they reached the ears of everyone in the square, the gunshots were very consistent, just like just three gunshots, and everything was over.
"Wow! It's amazing, it's mighty! ”
"How did they do it, so many people actually felt like they were one person!"
"Is this the Five-Star Army? No wonder the Jurchen cavalry and the Mongol cavalry, who looked so imposing, were not the same in front of them. ”
"How can such an army, such a military discipline, not win a war?"
"Well, you don't know yet, this five-star army is very powerful, even the Beiming guard will not be in the eyes, not long ago they just bloodied more than 2,000 war horses in the left guard of Jianzhou, their slogan is to build the strongest cavalry in the world, I heard that if you can join it, you can get the best treatment, not only the salary is the highest, the food is also the best, and one person can also be matched with two war horses in the future."
The front is the sigh of everyone from the bottom of their hearts, and the back is talking about some people with ulterior motives. If someone with a heart observes carefully, you will find that Wu Huo, who specializes in horseback pedaling in the center of the town, is sandwiched in it, not only him, but also some people who specialize in selling all kinds of small things and some crafts in the town, and most of them are people who chatted with Yang Chendong with Wu Huo for most of the afternoon that day.
They will appear here, naturally it is not a coincidence, but they were instructed by Yang Chendong to deceive the people here. The purpose is to spread the word that the Five Star Army is going to recruit people. Even if there are 50,000 people here who are ownerless, and there are as many as 8,000 young and middle-aged people alone, how could Yang Chendong give up such a good opportunity to expand his strength?
This has the spread behavior of Wu Huo and others, as for whether they received Yang Chendong's benefits and how much, even if only they know.
"Oh? I don't know what kind of treatment it is? "Some people say, naturally some people will ask, some people will be curious. So, all over the square, all kinds of inquiries naturally came out.
"After the public trial conference, the five-star army will set the standard for recruiting personnel, and the treatment will be detailed at that time, if you want to know about it, you can take a look, anyway, I will go. Now, let's continue to see what this public trial conference is all about. This is the voice that belongs to Wu Huo, although he has already received some benefits, and he must spread some information, but he also knows what kind of occasion it is now, and he will not announce the victory, so he only said that after the conference, the five-star army will have a recruitment notice, and then he did not speak, and put all his attention in the center of the square.
Wu Huo stopped talking, and the atmosphere at the scene was indeed very tense, even if someone wanted to ask what was going on, it was not good to say something at this time, so he had to force down all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and first look at this public trial conference, thinking that after all this was over, he would definitely take a good look at the notice, what was to be written on it.
The center of the crowd quickly became quiet again, and in the midst of it, a man with a broken straw hat was squeezing out of the crowd intentionally or unintentionally while lowering his head. It was easier to step back than everyone wanted to get closer, and without even getting any hindrance, he moved away from the crowd and disappeared into the square. His actions were not noticed by the mercenaries in charge of perimeter security and vigilance, and there were more than 30,000 people coming, which was too much, and it was impossible to take care of every place.
After the man exited the square, he first returned to a small courtyard, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he entered the back room and came to a water tank with only a little water, and after stretching out his arms and moving slightly, an above-ground passage was revealed. Jumping downward, the tank was put back in place, and the person disappeared. In about two quarters of an hour, by the time this person appeared, he was already five miles northwest of Narcissus Town. At this moment, he finally gained freedom, and he could finally throw the hat to the ground, revealing his true face of Lushan, he was one of the Jurchen cavalry generals who quietly disappeared when he saw the bad situation.
When he saw that none of the cavalry following General Blast knew him, he realized that things were not good, and left and went into hiding. Things were just as he imagined, and sure enough, something happened to them. He has been hiding under the water tank at home, and occasionally when he comes out at night, he knows about the public trial, and today he boldly shows up, also considering that he came out to inquire about some things by taking advantage of the crowd.
Fail! It's already an ironclad fact, but at least he has to know how he lost and who his opponent is? How much strength is there?
In order to find out this, he took the risk of death and walked out, and after hearing the words of Wu Huo and the others, he had already received a satisfactory answer. These five-star troops dared to be the enemy of the Northern Ming Guard, and they also hacked more than 2,000 war horses of the other party, with this, they were doomed, this is something that even the Jurchen cavalry and the Mongolian cavalry did not dare to do.
Thinking that he had found a big news, after getting out of the tunnel, he identified the direction, and he went straight to the Sacha River in the northwest direction of Narcissus Town, which is the nearest place to the Thousand Households of the Northern Ming Dynasty from Narcissus Town, he wants to inform the Five-Star Army of what the Five-Star Army has done there, presumably with this matter, the Beiming will definitely not spare the Five-Star Army, the two tigers will fight, there will be an injury, if the opportunity is grasped, maybe it is time for him to rise again with the Jurchen cavalry.
I didn't go back, I walked quietly. At this moment, on the largest square of Narcissus Town, the public trial meeting is in full swing.
The first thing about the conference is to fire a gun, which is to show one's strength and pay tribute to the dead. It should be said that people at that time were very superstitious, believing that there would be a soul after death, and those who died unjustly would often have a ghost unless revenge was taken.
Now as soon as the guns rang out, it was equivalent to using this superstitious thinking to make the Five Star Army stand in the orthodox position first.
