In the past, Weizhenbao was Wang Shoulu's world alone, and Zhang Qiuqing basically handed over all the affairs of Weizhenbao to Wang Shoulu to deal with. He also enjoyed the pleasure of being in charge of the government in this way, and felt that his small hundred households were actually very promising. However, now, suddenly there is one more Xu Xingxia, of course he has to feel awkward.

Even, Xu Xingxia's prestige seemed to overshadow him in an instant, making him feel very bad. Now Weizhen Fort, everyone only knows Xu Xingxia, and they don't know that he is Wang Shoulu. If there is any major event, it is very likely that the military households will only listen to Xu Xingxia and not listen to him Wang Shoulu. In this way, he is tantamount to being completely hollowed out.

No matter what kind of hope Xu Xingxia would bring to Weizhenbao and what kind of sense of security would be brought to the military households of Weizhenbao, all Wang Shoulu thought of was that his power was snatched. He wished that Xu Xingxia would be killed by the Tatars immediately. Even, Wang Shoulu secretly thought of several strategies, wanting to use conspiracy to get rid of Xu Xingxia.

However, Xu Xingxia is a hundred households, and he is also a hundred households, and he has no power to contain the other party. Unless it's a deputy thousand households or a thousand households. To put it hard...... Even Lu Yide was cleaned up by Xu Xingxia, who else is Xu Xingxia's opponent in the guard's army? and Xu Xingxia came hard, is this because he is impatient?

"Those Tatars are really useless...... Can't even pick up a broken archer......" In the dead of night, Wang Shoulu secretly complained, but he was helpless.

……

Finally, after waiting for ten days, Xu Xingxia returned to Weizhen Fort. came back with him, including Yu Lijun and Liu Chuang. The news of his return, the military households of Weizhen Fort learned about it early in the morning, and they gathered at the location of the fort gate, so that the tower near the water could get the moon first. As soon as he arrived at the gate of Weizhen Fort, Xu Xingxia loudly announced that he was coming back to select people this time, and the quota was twenty! The small Weizhen Fort suddenly boiled.

"It's coming!"

"It's coming!"

"It's coming!"

Those strong guys who were interested in serving in Niujiaodun hurriedly gathered and waited for Xu Xingxia to come and pick people. As the leader of the remnants of the army, Liu Heng was naturally the most active and cooperative, as were his other brothers. Of course, there are many, many more active military remnants like Liu Heng, but Xu Xingxia may not be able to see it.

"I now announce the selection conditions!"

Xu Xingxia didn't have any politeness, and directly began to choose people. He stood in the middle of the threshing floor and announced his conscription conditions in a short and clear manner. There are only two conscription conditions for Niujiaodun. The first is to know how to ride and shoot, the higher the level, the better. Second, there must be relatives killed and wounded in the hands of the Tartars, and the more dead and wounded, the better.

The first condition is quite normal. Before, everyone had expected that Xu Xingxia would definitely need some real people. After all, the defenders of Niujiaodun are going to fight hard with the Tartars, and if you don't have any skills, aren't you eating dry rice? No matter how good the treatment of Niujiaodun is, it is impossible for people to eat and drink for nothing.

However, the second condition seems to be a bit of that matter. A lot of people are a little confused. Why do you have to have relatives killed or injured at the hands of the Tartars? And is more the merrier? Isn't this deliberately revealing other people's scars? For the death of a loved one, many people are reluctant to mention it. Some people can't help but ask. As a result, Xu Xingxia insisted on doing so.

Xu Xingxia said slowly: "I can't say too profound truth, I only know one thing, the more your relatives are hurt by the Tartars, the deeper your hatred for the Tartars, and when you fight hard with the Tartars, the more likely you are to fight to the death." If you have several relatives who have died at the hands of the Tartars, but you still don't have the guts to kill them. Then all I can say is that you are a waste, useless waste. Even if you go to the Nine Springs, you don't have the face to see your relatives. ”

Coming from later generations, he found from many war examples that the Ming army's will to fight was indeed a great tragedy. In the late Ming Dynasty, except for the Guanning Iron Cavalry, which was more capable of fighting, the other Ming army troops were basically scattered. If you fight with the wind, you can hold it up for a while. If you fight against the wind, it will be troublesome, and it will definitely collapse all at once. Xu Xingxia didn't want to use his own money and food to greet a group of people who didn't have any will to fight.

Now Xu Xingxia does not have any good way to exercise the fighting will of the soldiers under his command. The reason why the Guanning Iron Cavalry can only fight is because they are all from Liaodong and have their own land in Liaodong. In order to protect their land and homeland, of course, they will fight to the death. But the horn pier is different, the horn pier can't do this. Agrarian reform is not possible at this stage. For the time being, Xu Xingxia can only provide a small amount of money.

But this money is the most unreliable. People who can be bought by money are even more unreliable. Xu Xingxia thought about it, and finally thought of hatred. That's right, hate. Hatred is an important factor in bringing out the potential of the human body. The power of hatred, once fully aroused, is simply endless. What he has to do now is to fully arouse the hatred of his subordinates and soldiers, and fight the Tatars endlessly.

Choosing hatred as a breakthrough is also the lowest-cost solution, and it is also the least difficult to implement. The military households of Fort Weizhen have no hatred with the Tartars at all, and there are not a few. On the contrary, there is a large group of people who have a deep hatred for the Tartars. He was going to pick out these people who had a deep grudge against the Tartars. What kind of people and Tartars have the deepest hatred? Of course, there are relatives who have been killed.

As he said earlier, if he has relatives who die in the hands of the Tartars, and he does not have the courage to fight with the Tartars, he is simply a waste, and even after he dies, he will not have the face to see his ancestors and ancestors. In China at that time, it was a society where filial piety came first. If you can't avenge your loved ones, do you dare to say a word of filial piety?

"Who says we're waste?"

"We're going to fight the Tartars!"

Sure enough, Xu Xingxia's words inspired the anger of many military remnants.

Usually, their anger is buried deep in their hearts, and when they are not aroused, there is nothing abnormal. However, today I was stimulated by Xu Xingxia, and someone immediately broke out. When someone erupts, others naturally follow suit. For a while, the crowd was excited, and they all wanted to go to Tartar immediately.

For the angry soldiers, Xu Xingxia did not have any comfort or any calming, he just watched quietly and continued to busy his preparations. In addition to announcing the two basic selection conditions, he also asked Yu Lijun and Liu Chuang to place a charcoal stove in the middle of the barn. The inside of the charcoal stove is full of red-hot charcoal, and a triangular soldering iron is inserted in it. The surface of the soldering iron is already burned red.

In the impression of ordinary people, red-hot soldering irons are used as torture tools. In the past, if the military households of Weizhen Fort made a big mistake or offended their boss, they would also be waited for by a soldering iron. Basically, if you go down with a red-hot soldering iron, you will definitely not die but also peel off the skin. No one knows what Xu Xingxia wants this soldering iron to do.

Xu Xingxia didn't explain the role of the soldering iron, he just swept his eyes and said slowly: "Those who are interested in participating in the assessment will stand up now." ”

Fifty or sixty young soldiers immediately stood out.

Originally, there were three or four hundred military surpluses in Weizhenbao, and they were basically young people, but Xu Xingxia's selection condition was to know how to ride and shoot, which forced many military surpluses to give up the assessment. In Weizhen Fort, there are many people who know how to ride horses, and there are indeed not many people who know how to ride and shoot. If you can't even draw a bow on horseback, you can only be embarrassed to participate in the assessment.

After all, mounted archery is a difficult skill to learn and requires a long period of exercise, and it is best to start practicing it from a young age to lay a good foundation. In fact, if there were no ** who joined the army, the military remnants would not have specially trained in mounted archery at all. Therefore, out of three or four hundred people, it is already good to be able to pull out fifty people who know how to ride and shoot.

Xu Xingxia's gaze swept again, his face slowly turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Can anyone tell me, why did you come to Niujiaodun?" ”

The people below suddenly quieted down, and their faces seemed to be a little weird.

The most fundamental reason why they want to go to Niujiaodun to serve is that Niujiaodun has good food treatment, they can eat well, they can eat well, they have hope, and they have a future. However, idiots know that such words cannot be said so unabashedly. Do you say that you went to join the army in order to eat meat every day? Even if it's a shame, there's no such thing as a shame.

The surrounding military households, you also look at me, I look at you, and their faces are a little embarrassed. They all felt a little weird about Xu Xingxia's question and didn't know how to answer it. In fact, everyone is going for the benefits of Niujiaodun. If the horn pier is not very good, they will not be interested. However, in front of the public, if you say it so bluntly, I'm afraid that you won't have face to meet people in the future. There was no way, everyone had to remain silent.

Xu Xingxia suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at a young soldier in front of him, and said quietly: "You, come out!" ”

The soldier walked out a little confused, obviously a little nervous, and stammered: "My lord, I ......"

Xu Xingxia said lightly: "What's your name?" ”

The soldier barely calmed down and said nervously: "I, my name is Chen ...... Chen Shouwang. ”

Xu Xingxia nodded, looked at the surrounding military households, returned to Chen Shouwang's body, and said slowly: "Chen Shouwang, let me ask you, why did you come to Niujiaodun?" ”

Chen Shouwang hesitated for a moment, and said in a stiff tone: "I'm going to kill the Tartars." ”

Xu Xingxia said casually: "Why do you want to kill the Tartars? ”
