The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 373 In order to reward silver

Yes, the clothes on the less side can still cover the body.

The side with more people was barefoot, and their clothes were torn into strips. The prince of England could understand their intentions...

It should be looking for possible interlayers.

"How many can be counted?" Shizi asked lightly.

"572!"

"What's the total?"

"804!"

The prince of England was silent.

How could he believe that everything in front of him was real?

If the eight hundred or so Bei Rong were killed by Xiao'an Village and Gu Feng's city guards, he has a few questions to clarify.

First, why did Xiao'an Village kill twice as many Bei Rong than Gu Feng's guard army?

Second, he had just stood up high and had a panoramic view of Xiao'an Village. There were no more than two hundred households at all, and two young and strong households were considered too many if the old, weak, women and children were excluded. How could they kill more than five hundred people?

Third, how many knives and bows are hidden in Xiao'an Village?

"Hold the book, go check it out, the number of people is right." The Prince of England confessed.

Holding the book, he called two guards to help, and took the order to leave.

"Do you know how many enemies were killed in the battle of Huju City?" The Prince of England's tone was a little solemn, and he asked himself and answered, "Only a thousand people!"

Yan Yu gasped.

Why are there so few?

Then here in their village...

"The corpse in front of me can't be faked. The one who died is indeed the invading Beirong. Then Xiao Er, who can tell me how Xiao'an Village did it?"

He looked at the child very seriously, and said word by word: "You are not a regular army, you are just fleeing from famine who have just landed in Huju, your household registration is clean, and you have been farming for generations. So, if you killed more than 500 enemies, how many of you fought? ? What method was used? Relying on the five towers in the village?"

"At a glance, this son saw that most of the Bei Rong killed by arrows in Xiao'an Village were killed by arrows. How many swords and bows did Xiao'an Village have? Where did they come from?"

Yan Yu knew that all these had to be explained.

If she wanted to get the silver reward, her previous rhetoric of the spring and autumn style would not work.

Last time, six Bei Rong were killed, and the yamen servants over there in Fucheng were like this. They interrogated them very clearly, detailing everything.

Guanzhou values military merits and rewards the bravery of killing the enemy, but it is not easy to be fooled, and everything is true.

Yan Yu's big eyes flickered, she seemed to be overwhelmed by Shizi's serious words, but she was actually reviewing what happened last night.

Is there anything I can't say.

Are there joints that cannot be said.

The Prince of England did not intend to ask anything from this child.

Although he is a scholar, he studied early and was intelligent, but he is a child, how much can he know...

"Brother Shizi, my hometown is in Qishan Mansion. It's been a drought this year, and there hasn't been a drop of rain. The stream by the village has dried up.

My eldest sister has to go far every day to find some yellowed wild vegetables.

The grandfather of the village head and his family guard the only old well in the village that still has water.

Every family does not have enough drinking water, and the uncles and aunts in the village have to save a few sips from their mouths and pour them into the ground, hoping that the ground will be more productive.

Later, the water in the well became less and less.

We couldn't stand it anymore, so we came all the way to Guanzhou.

The uncle said that it is very cold here and people are very freezing, and there are also Bei Rong who often enter the pass to plunder, which is very dangerous.

But we still came, we put on more clothes when it was cold, and burned firewood and charcoal to keep warm. At that time, we didn’t know that there would be so many people in Beirong, and they rode into the village to snatch it.

On the way to escape from famine, we saw a lot.

There are villains who hold the elderly, women and children, occupy people's food, and throw men out.

There are those who stand guard at the narrow exit and let them stay to buy food for the road.

There are also bandits in Leshan Prefecture. The mountain road is difficult to walk. We walked very slowly and encountered several groups...

Brother Shizi, we were supposed to enter Guanzhou from Gufeng, but because there were bandits on the official road, we made a long detour and entered Huju from Xizhou.

We were more on the road, now that's all that's left...

When we were registered, we deliberately chose this place with mountains and rivers. There is a lot of food in the mountains, and we no longer have to worry about running out of water when we rely on the river.

People in our village are very rare here, working day and night, opening up wasteland, planting vegetables, and building houses, every day is free.

Brother Shizi, the village chief grandpa said that we should take root here.

So Beirong came, robbing food, killing people, we can't let it go.

We have to live too! "

Yan Yu's expression was serious and serious: "Brother Shizi, in our village, children dare to kill the enemy, do you believe it or not?"

The Prince of England suddenly understood why all he saw on the tower were children.

experienced famine...

He had indeed heard of the cruelty of the escape.

"In the beginning, six Bei Rong came over the mountain. We were afraid, so we thought about building the arrow tower."

Yan Yu made a gesture of invitation: "Brother Shizi, come with me."

The Prince of England followed her.

"Here is our training ground." Yan Yu started running without saying a word.

Run, jump, climb up and down.

It moves like a rabbit, crawls like a snake.

Back and forth, without taking a breath.

"The children in the village are all training here." She paused deliberately, pretending to be forbearing, and said, "When fleeing famine, the adults always take care of us. hurt……

So we thought, we must run faster and be more flexible in our hands and feet, so that if we encounter bad guys, they will not be able to catch up. "

"These bows and grass targets are for us to practice accuracy. Archery is very useful. We can hunt in the mountains and forests, and we can often hunt meat back." Yan Yu smiled shyly: "My uncle is good at shooting arrows. One of the six arts of a gentleman, let me practice more diligently."

She took a bow casually, wound it, drew it, and shot!

Accurately hit the target.

The Prince of England was really impressed.

With such a shoddy bow and an arrow made of wood, it is really rare to hit the target by an inch, no matter in terms of accuracy or strength.

And this is not a small bow, it is a bow used by adults.

If it is true what Yan's Xiaoer said, all the children in this village can be like this...

It is not impossible to annihilate the incoming enemy.

"Last night, there were only forty-eight Beirong people who first entered the village." Yan Yu decided to explain to him in detail, combining with the actual situation, to demonstrate how they took down these hundreds of Beirong.

"Before they came, Master Lu, who helped build the house in the village, just returned home. He brought his family over late at night and woke up our whole village. He said that Beirong had entered their village. There were many people. They couldn't stop them. Let us hurry up." run."

"But where to run at night? They have horses, and we can't run, so we want to hide in the tower...

The uncles removed several door panels and lifted them up to block the entrance below..."

The Prince of England told how the child would use the six bows and six knives he had seized earlier, relying on the power of the tower, and use the door panels as shields to fight against more than forty Bei Rong.

Children shoot arrows from above, and young adults defend from the enemy below.

This first batch of Bei Rong emboldened Xiao'an Village.

Confiscated their swords and bows, removed the door panels of the whole village, separated the villagers, and each occupied the tower...

"Where are there so many arrows?" asked the Prince of England.

Yan Yu: "They are all freshly cut. The people hiding in the tower cut one with a kitchen knife or sickle, and send one up."

"Where is the arrow?"

"It's all washed and dried in the grain yard." Yan Yu replied.

He took his son to see the wooden arrows and bamboo arrows drying in the valley field.

Purely handmade.

The prince was not curious about why there were bamboo arrows, this Xiao'an village came from the south, and the concubine Shizi was from the south, he knew that the south loves to use bamboo.

Yan Yu brought his son to Luo's house to see Uncle Luo.

"Uncle Luo led people to guard the raft bridge in the river, and they were all froze."

Then he took his son into the gate of Qi's house.

"When the third batch of Beirong came, there were not many good door panels in the village." Yan Yu said with a heavy face: "This is my fourth uncle Qi. Because the door panel is broken, he has to guard the tower entrance, so he can only carry it with his body. Hold on and never retreat."

Qi Si was inspected by the guards, his face was flushed, and he couldn't speak a word.

"My lord, they are all frontal stab wounds." The guard said respectfully.

Several guards looked at Qi Si with admiration in their eyes!

It's a man!

boom!

Gulululu...

There was a sound in the courtyard.

People came out to check.

Then I saw Qi Da and Qi Wu coming back from the outside.

Lying there, Qi Si only felt that this person was quite tall and strong, but seeing Qi Da and Qi Wu standing in the courtyard, he knew that this person was not ordinary tall, nor was he ordinary strong.

Every house in the village has no door panels.

Qi Da and Qi Wu moved wood from the forest to their house. In order to save trouble, the two of them tied several logs at a time, and put them on the ground in the courtyard.

It was the source of the sound they had just heard.

The two of them were sweating all over, and when they entered their yard, they simply took off their clothes and were shirtless.

This dazzling tendon meat!

There is also an exaggerated amount of wood...

Prince of England: ...

Guards: ...

Yan Yu: Uncle Qi and Uncle Qi are doing great!

Come on, show it!

Let them, who have never seen the world, open their eyes!

A guard stepped forward, and under the surprised gazes of Qi Da and Qi Wu, he lifted a piece of wood.

Solid wood, very heavy.

He didn't dare to put it on his body, not because he couldn't move his back, but because the contrast was too much...
