Chapter 86: The cowardly army is not fully paid, but fully paid is invincible (15)

(Slightly modified from the previous chapter)
After some inquiries, Hua Xiaomei found out that the eldest brother of that group of heroes was named Cao Jie, and his nickname was Yan Wang Di.

Over the past year, I have rescued countless good men in Shandong and Hebei, and made friends with many heroes.

So he was also called Little Mengde.

His reputation is as loud as thunder.

"He's even more extravagant than my brother! He's truly a real hero!"

Hua Baoyan has been practicing martial arts since she was young and yearns for the life of Jianghu. Unfortunately, her elder brother became the village chief and she had no chance to go out and explore the world. Naturally, she became more curious. She disguised herself again and turned into a handsome young man and went to Qingfeng Village.

At this moment, at the Qingfeng Village training ground, that guy and that scene were quite grand!

It was really a scene of loud gongs and drums, blasting firecrackers, waving flags, and huge crowds of people.

If you are not proactive in getting your salary, there must be something wrong with your brain.

Although the salary issued was not much, the combat soldiers only received one or two taels of silver, and the auxiliary soldiers could forget about it.

But just this little ounce of silver is enough to motivate people.

The more than 400 auxiliary soldiers looked eagerly at the more than 200 combat soldiers lining up to receive their salaries, their eyes almost falling out of their eyes.

Is one tael of silver a lot?
You can't even buy three stone of refined grain, but if it's coarse grain, you can buy five or six stone.

One stone weighs about 100 pounds, which is enough to feed a soldier for two months. If it is for the elderly, the weak, women and children, it is enough to feed them for more than three months.

More importantly, this is the first time they have received pay since they joined the army!

Every village commander sucks the blood of his soldiers, but who would have thought that this group of soldiers would actually get paid one day.

"Master Zhizhai, the great judge of heaven!"

Every soldier who received pay from Wu Song knelt down and bowed.

After sending out more than 200 taels of silver, Wu Song stood on the high platform built of pine wood, looked down at the neatly arranged square formation below with his tiger eyes, and shouted loudly:

"Serving as a soldier means eating food and fighting for pay. This has been a natural thing since ancient times. I, Wu Song, will be the commander of the camp for one day, and this rule will apply for one day. Today, the soldiers will receive their pay and fight against the bandits. Those who have made contributions will be rewarded.

What is merit? Being the first to ascend the battlefield, breaking through the enemy lines, beheading the generals, and seizing the banners..."

In a word, if you fight with your life, you will get money!

Wu Song waved his arm and said, "Even if you die, your family members can get eight taels of silver as compensation directly from me, Wu Song, and five taels of silver for the disabled...

Of course, my brother is Cao Jie, the enemy of Shandong, and I have invited him to come to the stronghold to take charge. Even if you want to make a lot of money from me, Wu Song, my brother will not agree. "

"I am willing to die for Zhizhai!"

"I am willing to die for Zhizhai!"

Hua Baoyan was so excited that she wished she could sign up to join the army and fight in the battlefield.

The auxiliary soldiers were naturally even more envious. Someone shouted, "Master Zhizhai, if we auxiliary soldiers cut off the head of the thief, we can get a reward?"

“No different from a combat soldier!”

"Wow!"

The more than 400 auxiliary soldiers were in an uproar.

Cao Jie stood in the distance, and seeing the scene in front of him, he nodded slowly: "The soldiers are ready to fight! Qingfeng Mountain can be destroyed soon!"

In order to completely arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers in the village, Wu Song nodded to Hua Rong, and soon several personal soldiers came over carrying large boxes.

The wooden boxes were opened one by one, and the silver ingots reflected the dazzling light under the sunlight.

"The money is here. Whether you can get it or not depends on your ability."

"Kill the bandits!"

"Kill...kill...kill..."

The atmosphere on the training ground is getting more and more heated!

Know the village, Shezha!
Under the leadership of several supporters and the visual stimulation of the dazzling silver light, all the soldiers in the village reached their climax!
"I am willing to die for Master Zhizhai!"

Normally, Hua Rong would have to roar to complete the training, but now he was roaring with all his might, as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

The voice of loyalty stops the moving clouds!
Hua Rong felt hot all over after hearing this, and he wished he could go to Qingfeng Mountain right now to have a big fight and chop off a few of the bandits' heads. "Brother Cao is indeed a man who can accomplish great things!"

"He took out thousands of taels of silver without blinking an eye to help Brother Wu fight the bandits."

"They all say that Brother Gongming is the timely rain, and Brother Cao is the Dragon King who brings rain!"

'Shezha!'

Generally speaking, people who regard gold and silver as dirt will naturally not blindly give money to others without asking for anything in return, because they need something more important than money.

On the second day after Wu Song mobilized the soldiers in the village, the three wastes of Qingfeng Mountain finally confirmed that what Liu Gao said was correct. Without any plan, they hurriedly selected three or four hundred followers and headed straight for Qingfeng Village.

The demon soldiers come out of the mountains and only travel at night.

It was already early morning, a dark and windy night, a time for murder and arson!

A dark shadow ran out from the woods outside Qingfeng Village, moving through the darkness like a demon coming out of a cave, stirring up a cold wind. The temperature dropped and the leaves trembled on the branches, giving people a feeling of late autumn and a chill.

The dwarf tiger looked up at the tall village wall, and its body changed, becoming extremely similar in color to the surrounding area.

If I were to use an animal as a comparison, it would be the chameleon.

This dwarf lizard moved quickly on the ground and headed straight for the gate of the village, with a very clear goal.

That was to seize the village gate by one's own strength and fire the first shot in the attack on Qingfeng Village.

On the watchtower of the village, a night owl that came out to hunt for food at night looked up at the black shadow, with fear in its eyes, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The dwarf tiger Wang Ying pressed his back against the village wall and actually used his hands and feet to crawl on the 90-degree wall.

After crossing the village wall, he landed steadily on a big tree. The branches of the tree were still swaying, intertwining like ghost claws or looming ghost shadows. Leaves were falling one by one, creating a terrifying scene.

In the village, a team of patrol soldiers wearing leather armor and holding spears walked in an orderly manner.

At the gate of the village, there were many people deployed with both visible and hidden sentries.

This kind of security facilities are nothing like Qingfeng Village. Even the capital city of Qingzhou Prefecture is not so strictly guarded!

There’s no way, Wu Song gave too much money!

"Wang Wang Wang!"

First, a dog started barking, and soon, more than a dozen dogs started barking together.

The dwarf was shocked. He could disguise himself and avoid being seen, but his smell was extremely strong and could not be hidden from the dog's sense of smell.

"Enemy attack!"

"bang bang bang..."

The soldier on night patrol banged the gong in his hand and roared: "Enemy attack, thieves broke into the village... Enemy attack..."

"Is Qingfengshan attacking?"

"What? A thief is here to get himself killed?"

"Hurry up...Qingfeng Mountain has sent silver."

Wow!
There was a sound of fighting in the barracks, and under the astonished gaze of the dwarf tiger, hundreds of people rushed out.

The sharp swords gleamed coldly under the moonlight as they rushed towards the village gate.

In this situation, it is obviously impossible to open the gate of the village by one's own strength.

Hua Rong is an excellent archer, and Wang Ying is also afraid of sneak attacks!

Just as the dwarf was about to leave, his eyes widened again, and the group of soldiers actually took the initiative to open the gate.

'What are they going to do?'

Outside the stronghold, Yan Shun, the Golden-haired Tiger, and Zheng Tianshou, the White-faced Young Man, thought that Wang Ying had succeeded when they saw the stronghold gate burst open.

He drew out his sword and shouted at the top of his voice, "Boys, follow the king to Qingfeng Village and have fun. Kill everyone, rob everyone, burn everyone..."

"Kill them all, rob them all, burn them all..."

Three or four hundred demon soldiers roared, like a mighty army.

And inside Qingfeng Village, about two hundred combat soldiers and more than four hundred auxiliary soldiers rushed out of the village gate at the same time, looking vicious and greedy!
