Early the next morning, the regiment's soldiers had basically recovered from their fatigue, so they started training again. However, we still don't know where Lao Luotuo and his group went, and maybe when they will do it again.
After fighting back, the regiment soldiers must maintain sufficient physical strength so that they can fight at any time. Therefore, the amount of training arranged by Shang Yi is not large, and it is basically recovery training and technical and tactical training.
After defeating the rebels, the self-confidence and morale of the regiment soldiers have been further improved. At the same time, they also understand the importance of daily training and know that if they practice their skills, they will have a greater chance of surviving on the battlefield. Therefore,
They are also very conscious about training in various projects arranged by Shang Yi.
After Chen hour, someone from the reconnaissance team came back to deliver a message and discovered the bandits' whereabouts. They were attacking Wang's Datun.
Not only did the attack on Qishui Village fail, almost all the money and supplies stolen from Jinshanping Village and Qiliu Town were lost, and more than 300 brothers were injured and killed. Including the wounded, the battle loss was close to 500 people.
.
Old Luotuo couldn't help but feel angry and anxious. If he went back empty-handed, the people under his command would definitely rebel. Of course, he was the head of Qinglang Peak, but this position was not lifelong. Among the bandits,
There is no talk about the etiquette relationship between the king and his ministers. It is completely driven by respect and profit for the strong. The bandits appointed Lao Luotuo as their master. On the one hand, it was because he created Qinglang Peak by himself, and on the other hand
It was also because everyone followed him, had success, and could get money and food to live a good life. But once his brothers discovered that Lao Luotuo could not lead everyone to live a good life, his position as the head of the family would not be stable.
Although Lao Luotuo never went to any private school, he had heard the storyteller tell the story of Water Margin. Isn't there a section called "Fighting Wang Lun"? He didn't want to be Wang Lun. So no matter what, he had to find a way to win again.
Some of them can explain themselves to their brothers when they return.
But Qingshui Village definitely didn’t dare to go there anymore, so Laoluotuo set his sights on several nearby villages. There were several villages in this area, but Bajiaotai Village and Shilitun Village both had alliances with Qingshui Village
Because of the relationship, Lao Luotuo did not dare to attack these two villages, so there was only one Wangjia Datun left. But Lao Luotuo was also a little hesitant, because Wangjia Datun was the largest village in this area. Is it easy to fight? And Qingshui Village would
Won't they come to rescue Wangjia Datun? After all, they are also neighboring villages, and they can't afford another failure.
However, Ma Baiqi and Ma Bashi have been teachers in Qingshui Village for a year, and they are relatively familiar with the geographical advantages and conditions in this area. They also know that more than a month ago, Qingshui Village and Wangjiadatun had a dispute over land.
In the village fight, Qingshui Village would not support Wang Family Datun, so both of them strongly advocated attacking Wang Family Datun.
After listening to their introduction, Old Luotuo felt a little relieved, and there was no other way now, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet. So after the bandits rested for a day, they immediately set out again to attack the Wang family.
Tuen.
These villages are not far from each other. Wangjiadatun is less than ten miles away from Qingshui Village. Therefore, Shang Yi ordered the reconnaissance team to continue to closely monitor the bandits' movements and reported to Zhou Shiqi.
Although Wang's Datun is not part of the three-village alliance, and the four brothers of the Wang's family usually run rampant in the village and are very domineering, they are still fellow villagers after all. We usually don't see each other without looking up, not to mention that the ancients also had "lips and teeth are cold" Zhou Shiqi was also a magistrate of Yishui County, so he still had a sense of the overall situation, so he asked Shang Yi if he could rescue Wangjia Datun.
This point coincides with Shang Yi. He also advocated that Wangjia Datun should be rescued. In addition to the reasons mentioned by Zhou Shiqi, Shang Yi also had another idea, that is, he hoped that the regiment soldiers could get more war training, so as to quickly improve their combat effectiveness. According to the historical process, it is now November of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen (1642). The Qing army should have broken through the Great Wall defense line and entered the Pass to attack. Although the news has not yet spread to Qingshui Village, but Shang Yi believes that this period of history will not change. Therefore, if the combat effectiveness of the regiment soldiers is increased, they will be able to protect themselves when facing the Qing Army in the future.
However, Shang Yi still proposed that because all the actions of the militia were decided after consultation among the three villages, Zhao Bingyi and Huang Dongshan should be invited to discuss whether to rescue Wangjiadatun. Zhou Shiqi also believed that what Shang Yi said was true. The reason is that the militia was jointly established by three villages, and Qingshui Village could not have the final say alone, so they immediately sent people to ask Huang Dongshan and Zhao Bingyi to come to Qingshui Village to discuss whether to rescue Wangjia Datun. And Shang Yi was also afraid that it would be unsafe on the road, like Each of the two villages sent a team of soldiers to protect the arrival of the two village chiefs.
When it was noon, Huang Dongshan and Zhao Bingyi arrived at Qingshui Village, and the four of them immediately sat down together to discuss. After listening to Zhou Shiqi's suggestion, Huang Dongshan arrived without hesitation, but was immediately strongly opposed by Zhao Bingyi because he Zhao Yinghao, the eldest son of Zhao Yinghao, was injured by Wang Jiayong in the ring. He never showed his anger and did not want to rescue Wangjia Datun. If Zhou Shiqi had not been highly respected in the village, he would have started to curse. So he just said: "Tai Gong, you are too kind-hearted, but you are using virtue to protect your grudges, and I am afraid that Wang Xingzu's family may not accept your kindness!"
Zhou Shiqi couldn't understand the meaning of his words, so he smiled and said: "Bingyi! Although there is some discord between us and the Wang family in Datun, we are all fellow villagers, and there is no deep hatred. Let alone the bandits. What good will it do to our three villages if the thieves take down Wangjia Datun? It just makes the thieves strengthen their own strength, which is not good for us! Therefore, I said that I want to save Wangjia Datun. For the sake of our three villages."
On the other side, Huang Dongshan nodded frequently. Although Zhao Bingyi also knew that what Zhou Shiqi said was reasonable, he could not turn around for a while. No matter how Zhou Shiqi tried to persuade him, he did not say anything.
At this time Shang Yi said: "Three village chiefs, I think what Village Chief Zhao said has a certain truth. Wangjiadatun is the largest village in our area, and the bandits may not be able to capture it. Maybe they don't have to Let's go rescue. Let's not put our hot face on our cold butt."
Zhao Bingyi felt a little more comfortable now, and he laughed and said: "What the chief teacher said makes sense. I have said it a long time ago. It is still unclear whether people will recognize our favor or not?"
Shang Yi continued: "But the matter has to be divided into two parts. What if the Wang Family Datun cannot withstand it? If it really comes to that point, we should still go to rescue them."
After Zhao Bingyi heard this, he became silent again.
Shang Yi added: "Therefore, I suggest that we pay close attention to the bandits' attack on Wangjia's Datun. Once Wangjia's Datun is really unable to withstand it and is killed by the bandits, we will send troops again. This way
Come on, Wang Xingzu and his family have to accept this favor. On the other hand, it also makes the bandits and the Wang family Datun fight to the detriment of both sides. We can just benefit from it, and from now on, Wang Xingzu and his family will only be afraid
We can never raise our heads in front of our three villages again."
After hearing what Shang Yi said, Zhao Bingyi's expression improved a little, and he said again: "Then what if the Wang family's village defends its own village? Should we still send troops?"
Shang Yi said: "If Wangjiadatun can defend its village, the bandits will naturally retreat, but if these bandits remain, they will be a scourge to our area sooner or later. We will not care about Wangjiadatun. Before the bandits
Attack them on the way back and give them a severe blow so that they will never dare to come to us to cause trouble again."
After listening to Shang Yi's plan, Huang Dongshan first said: "Chief Teacher, this method is good, I think it can be done." He pushed Zhao Bingyi and said: "Old Zhao! Don't worry, this is not just for
Rescue Wang Family Datun! Beating these bandits away is also for the safety of our three villages! Is it so difficult for you to always think about letting bandits wander around your village?"
Zhao Bingyi then said: "Okay, okay! This is for our own sake, and I also think the chief teacher's method is good. Let the bandits and the Wang Family Datun fight to the detriment of both sides, and then we take action."
Zhou Shiqi was very happy to see that the matters were unified, so he left Huang Dongshan and Zhao Bingyi to have lunch in the village. In the afternoon, the two of them had to say goodbye and return to the village, but at this moment, the reconnaissance team sent someone back to report
, the Wang family's large village was captured by bandits.
At this time, the three village chiefs and Shang Yi were all shocked, because there are more than 640 households in Wangjia Datun, with a total population of more than 3,000 people, of which there are no less than 1,000 young and middle-aged people, and the Wang family's brothers
The four of them were all very capable people, but they couldn't even hold on for a day and were overrun by the bandits.
In fact, this is still related to the village fight more than a month ago. The village fight ended with the defeat of Wangjia Datun, and thirty-one lives were lost. Wang Xingzu came to Qingshui Village to ask for someone, but was forced by Zhou Shiqi
Then he wrote another note, admitting that the village fight was Wang's Datun's fault and that he would not pursue the matter of human life. However, after returning to the village, he was pestered by the victim of the deceased's family and insisted on going to the county to get an explanation.
Wang Xingzu was already holding back his anger, but because he had established a written document based on the scriptures, even if he sued the county, he would lose the lawsuit. Moreover, he also revealed that he was forced to create a written document, which was embarrassing. Therefore, he forced
They suppressed these suffering masters and said that whoever dared to continue making trouble would be driven out of the Wang Family's Datun.
Although the villagers were forced by the power of the Wang family and could only swallow their anger and dare not continue to make trouble, other villagers were also very chilled when they saw it, and began to abandon the Wang family and his son. Therefore, when the bandits attacked the Wang family's Datun, although the Wang family's
The four brothers also called on the villagers to fight against the bandits' attack. However, the force of the four brothers' calls was not as good as it used to be. Some villagers resisted vigorously, while some failed to work hard, and some fled the village and stayed away.
Gone to a foreign country.
As a result, the people in the village were in chaos, and even those who were willing to resist were shaken, and the bandits finally invaded the village.
