There are Yun in the Water Margin, and there are Zhu, Li, and Hu Sanzhuang in Dulonggang in 1 Prefecture, and they made a life and death oath to form an alliance, and when Liangshan came to loot, they responded to each other. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Later, although the third son of Zhujiazhuang was stunned, Qing Zhu Biao first offended Li Ying, and Hujiazhuang surrendered when Liangshan attacked Zhujiazhuang twice, but only with five or seven hundred households in Zhujiazhuang, he resisted Song Jiang's three unsparing attacks, if it were not for Sun Li and others, I don't know how much trouble it would bring to Liangshan.

There are also five or seven thousand people gathered in Zengtou City, relying on the courage of the head Shi Wengong, Su Ding and the five tigers of the Zeng family, Liangshan was defeated and lost in a battle, and the lord of Liangshan, the king of Tuota, was killed with one arrow, and then Song Jiang took a lot of trouble to lead the Liangshan army to uproot Zengtou City.

And now Xiao Tang regardless of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, the momentum of Xiaojiaji in Zongcheng County has long been far better than that of Zhujiazhuang and Zengtou City, not to mention that his subordinates are full of fierce people, just waiting for the expansion of troops in the name of recruiting Xiangyong, I am afraid that no matter which way the open-eyed cottage strongman attacks, it is definitely the old birthday star hanging---- thinking that his life is too long.

Xiao Tang has the intention to raise a military force of his own in Xiaojiaji, not just a local armed force of the people who defend the land and arrest thieves. One is because of the low combat effectiveness of the forbidden army in the Song Dynasty, and the prefect and governor had to have a laissez-faire attitude towards the development of military strength in the countryside and towns; Second, Xiao Tang now not only has to maintain the safety of the dart line and the caravan under his rule, but with the increase in the population of farmers in the counties under the jurisdiction of the Daimyo Mansion with Xiao Jiaji as the center, Xiao Tang must also take on the responsibility of protecting the lives and property of the tenants under his rule; Third, when the Jin army rode south, the rebels in He1 North, He1 South, Sichuan and Shaanxi and other places sprung up, and Xiao Tang had to make all preparations now.

Nowadays, the people have practiced more courage in the countryside, and they can not only deal with small-scale battles when they go to the rivers and lakes, and form a mandarin duck formation composed of rattan, wolf, palladium and other weapons to protect themselves, and the cavalry, archers and even well-equipped foot soldiers need to be reorganized one by one.

Xiao Tang was looking at the henchmen and brothers under his command in the school field who were busy rectifying the newcomers' hometown, and suddenly heard Shi Xiu overjoyed: "Brother Tanglong, you have good craftsmanship!" When Xiao Tang looked over, he saw Shi Xiu taking the newly made blade he had made for him, and he was happy and admired.

The brave and resolute Shi Xiu often uses three knives when fighting with people: the Pu knife, which mainly uses an iron-handled steel knife on the battlefield, and the narrow-edged steel knife on his waist when fighting in the rivers and lakes, and he hides a bright heart-cutting knife on his body. Now what Tang Long handed over to Shi Xiu was a Mo knife made of quenched steel, and when he saw that the Mo knife was shining and cold, the blade was like autumn frost, and Shi Xiu waved it a few times, and the wind whistled suddenly, which showed that it was extremely sharp.

This money leopard Tang Long's ability to build all kinds of weapons is indeed good, and he actually knows how to temper and make Mo Dao...... Xiao Tang was thinking about it, and suddenly his mind moved, and he secretly created a strange sword army, is this method feasible?

Although by the time of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the weapon of the Modao was just a personal weapon made by some powerful soldiers, and the formed Modao troops gradually disappeared. But this is by no means because the main combat weapons of the Tang infantry, which were directly taught and feared by foreign raiders in the Tang Dynasty, are no longer of great use. However, due to the cumbersome production process of Tang swords and swords, the use of iron, material selection, and production costs are also very high, and the Song Dynasty was seriously redundant and the consumption of armaments was very heavy, so the Mo sword soldiers became too extravagant, so the Great Song Dynasty used spears, hemp knives, axes, and crossbows as substitutes to fight against the northern nomads.

Imagine that the majestic athletes are holding hundreds of knives and advancing in formation, and the dense big knives are slashing in unison, strangling the enemy army like a meat grinder, and the will is broken...... Thinking of this, Xiao Tang couldn't help but feel excited, but was this idea feasible?

"Brother Tang Long, if this Mo Sword is built according to the ancient method, it is too expensive to form a Mo Sword Army, but there is a refining method to reduce the cost of its production?" Xiao Tang got straight to the point and asked Tang Long directly.

Tang Long was stunned for a moment, and then said after a little thought: "The young master of the good sect learned that the Mo knife in the Tang Dynasty consumed a lot of refined iron, although the fine iron was not easy to obtain, the younger brother can also make a fuss when folding and forging and melting away the knife blank cold making, using ordinary iron as the blade and the stainless steel forging blade as the edge, it is estimated that its power is not as invincible and sharp as the Mo knife in the Tang Dynasty!" It's just that...... Only those who have excellent strength can make this Mo knife, not to mention that according to my Great Song Dynasty military system, it is to build a Mo knife team of more than a few hundred people, but I am afraid that it is also too swaggering, right? ”

Xiao Tang understood Tang Long's doubts, although at this time, the powerful people in various places developed their personal local armed forces in the name of practicing village bravery, but most of them could only be equipped with weapons such as knives, spears, and hooks, similar to hard crossbows, lances, heavy armor, etc., all of which belonged to the controlled weapons that the government strictly prohibited from privately possessing armed forces...... It's hard not to provoke the suspicion of those who have a heart.

Tang Long is not only good at forging ordnance and weapons, his father was the governor of Yan'an Prefecture, so he also knows a lot about military regulations. But Xiao Tang said to him: "It's okay, bother Brother Tanglong to make one hundred and fifty Mo knives with the Tiepu brothers first, and the required iron materials are in charge of the Du brothers, and I will take care of the official and military inspections, so don't worry about the brothers." ”

Shi Xiu, who was playing with the Mo knife in his hand on the side, also smiled and said, "Brother Tang Long is worried!" The eldest brother is not only a prisoner for the soldiers and horses left behind, but even the inspector has to act according to the eyes of the eldest brother. Which eyeless thing dares to touch the big brother's head in the realm of the Daimyo's Mansion, and to kill him is not just like swatting a fly to death! As he was talking, the blade of the Mo knife in Shi Xiu's hand flipped over, and the cold light reflected Shi Xiu's face was blue and seeping, which was very terrifying.

"What did Saburo say? Can't you treat me as a rampant villain? Xiao Tang shook his head and scolded with a smile. After discussing with Tang Long, he suddenly heard a cheer from the villagers in front of him, Xiao Tang looked sideways, looked up at the sky, and saw several crows croaking in the air, very frightened. Suddenly, an arrow whizzed out, and seven or eight crows that were dodging in the air were all shot through, and the arrows were not empty.

Xiao Tang only thought that it was Xiao Li Guanghua who saw the crows in the sky noisy, so he used his ability to shoot them one by one in addition to the magic arrow, but when he saw it clearly, it was the prodigal son Yanqing who took the bow and arrow.

Xiao Tang was surprised in his heart, he walked over and asked, "When did Xiao Yi practice such a bow and arrow skill?" ”

Yan Qing smiled slightly, and said: "The younger brother has to be instructed by Brother Hua Rong to learn the bow and arrow, just because the old crow is naked and the white tongue is in the ground to provoke the tongue, so he makes the bow and arrow shoot it, and he doesn't want the arrow to hit." ”

Xiao Tang shut up in disdain, and frankly said that he was a little jealous of this extremely smart Yan Xiaoyi, this talented Yan Qing seemed to understand it incredibly fast no matter what she studied.

When Yan Qing was a child on the streets, he learned to play and sing and dance between the hook and the fence, and talked about all walks of life, and the ability to practice a fist and foot sumo wrestling at a young age was also like this, and later Zhang Chuan's crossbow was only for entertainment, but the crossbow made the arrow fall to the object, and there was no false hair, Shi Nai'an's old man wrote about Yan Qingchuan's crossbow ability: The crossbow pile is cut into ebony, the mountain root is inlaid with red teeth, the hand is lightly lined with crystal, and the string is half drawn with gold thread. The back is wrapped with a brocade belt, bent like the autumn moon is not round; Steady carving, like a meteor flying in. In the shadow of the green locust, the warbler is frightened, and in the shade of the green willows, the wild sparrows are scattered. A good hand is called a good hand, and a red heart is won in a red heart.

Later, Yan Qing learned the bow and arrow, and he was able to shoot down more than a dozen wild geese in the air in a moment. Now I am only afraid of Yan Qing, who is a beginner, and his bow and arrow skills are better than Xiao Tang, who is diligent in practicing bow and horse riding and archery.

Xu Guanzhong looked at his little acquaintance Yanqing, his eyes were full of admiration, and then he suddenly heard Xiao Tang say to him: "Guanzhong, how to organize these new townsmen who have been included in my market town, you and I will work together, how about it?" ”

Xu Guanzhong was stunned for a moment, and then nodded firmly. He secretly thought in his heart: Brother Xiao, this is also going to experience me...... Xiao Yi helps more by the side of the eldest brother, although we are close friends, but we can't lose to him.

Of course, Xiao Tang is well aware of Xu Guanzhong's potential, although he now has generals such as Sai Gongming Bian Xiang, Dragon Slayer Sun An, Xiao Li Guanghuarong and other generals who can lead the army to fight on the battlefield, and there are also professional talents such as Drum Flea Shi Qian, Gibbon Hou Jian, Money Leopard Tang Long, etc., but with the potential of a military advisor, only this immortal Xu Guanzhong is the best candidate.

Now Xu Guanzhong has no intention of conducting scientific research, and he has received the kindness of Xiao Tang to help his whole family, and he only wants to come in handy by Xiao Tang's side. After careful deliberation between Xiao Tang and Xu Guanzhong, according to the original 800 villagers in the market town, more than 5,000 people were selected from the villagers who had newly surrendered to Xiao Tang's name to make up 6,0012 battalions of men, and another 10 henchmen who were good at fighting on the battlefield were selected to lead two battalions of 1,000 men and horses, and the ten main and deputy generals were:

the main general Sai Gongming Bian Xiang, and the partial general Scarface Tiger Fu Xiang;

The main general dragon slayer Sun An, the partial general Qianjun Stick Mountain Shiqi;

The main general is desperate to San Lang Shi Xiu, and the general is bloody and knife Zi Zhu Jing;

Xiao Yi, the main general, and Xue Yong, the general and the big worm;

the main general Jin leopard Yang Lin, the partial general Shi Yong;

Among them, Bian Xiang, Sun An, Shi Xiu and other main generals have all experienced battles, and Xiao Tang chose them to lead the troops. Xiao Yi has a lot of experience in protecting the capital of the Xiao family, and Xue Yong led two battalions of township Yong to be mainly responsible for the security of thieves in the market town, Yang Lin is the head of the dart shop in the market town, and the commander of 1,000 men is responsible for the safety of the dart caravan.

The remaining two battalions were fully composed of 1,000 men and horses under the personal command of Xiao Tang and Xiao Li Guanghuarong, and one of the battalions was equipped with horses, and Huarong personally taught them to ride and shoot, and then selected the strongest ones to make up for the eighteen cavalry athletes who died during the conquest of Zhang Di as Xiao Tang's personal guards.

For several days, when the matter of the establishment of Zhuang Ding Xiangyong in each battalion headquarters came to an end, a message came from the left-behind division of the Daimyo Mansion, only saying that Xiao Tang was called to see Liang Shijie, the left-behind minister, and it seemed that the matter of reporting the merits of the southern Hebei army had been reported to Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, who was promoted to official title, and the matter of rewarding the position had been passed down to the holy post.
