Hearing this, the prisoners were all startled, and then their eyes involuntarily glanced at a few people in the team.
When those people saw this, their expressions changed slightly. They also knew how many evil things they had done, and they also knew that Qingfeng Village had always been under the banner of doing justice for heaven, which was incompatible with their ideals.
They originally thought of pretending to surrender first, and then running back to Black Wind Ridge when Qingfeng Village's defenses were relaxed. Unexpectedly, the leader of Qingfeng Village actually made it clear.
Their expressions changed slightly and they hid behind the crowd. The boss, Nie Chen and others didn't notice them for a while.
And these prisoners, because they were forced by the power of the black bandits, were afraid of them from the bottom of their hearts, but no one reported them at this time.
Nie Chen understood their thoughts and said with a smile,
"Everyone, you have been oppressed by those black bandits for a long time. Do you want to continue to be bullied by them after joining Qingfeng Village?
Now we have knives in our hands, we just need you to identify them and we can chop them down.
Whoever accuses a gangster will be rewarded fifty cents, on a first-come, first-served basis. If you are lagging behind, don't come over to me and ask for money! "
As soon as they heard this, the prisoners immediately became energetic. For fear of being overtaken by others, they rushed to say,
"Master, this kid is a gangster. He killed at least ten people by himself. They were all skinned and cramped!"
"This kid Li Wei has harmed many women, I will report him!"
"And him, catch him, don't let him escape!"
…
The crowd immediately became chaotic. When the gangsters saw that they had been accused, they were all so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
However, the bandits who had been bullied by them before and did not dare to say a word now looked like ferocious spirits, punching and kicking them one by one, twisting them to the ground and holding them tightly.
As soon as Nie Chen waved his hand, the bandits in Qingfeng Village handed them the knives. After those people got the knives, they hacked to death the black bandits in three strokes.
Now it's good, they killed the black bandit, and Black Wind Ridge can no longer accommodate them both.
Nie Chen laughed and said,
"Whoever identified it first just now will follow Shouhou there to receive the reward."
Shouhou picked out all the people who were the first to identify them and took them to collect the rewards. The others followed the other bandits into the village and were resettled.
After returning to the Juyi Hall, the faces of the four of them couldn't hide their happiness. They had won a great victory and completely wiped out the bandits from Black Wind Ridge. The battle gave Qingfeng Village a bad name.
The boss smiled and said,
"This battle was a beautiful one. Not only did we completely annihilate the enemy forces in Black Wind Ridge and gain a reputation, but we also gained 300 men. Our power suddenly tripled.
Now, let’s see who dares to speak loudly to our Qingfeng Village in the future. "
Da Zhuang frowned and said worriedly,
"Master, these people are not reliable. They used to be from Heifengling and worked for Zhang Taonian. Although they have joined us now, they can betray the gangsters for money today, and they can betray us for money tomorrow. You must be on guard."
The headmaster glanced at Da Zhuang and said,
"Look at you, why isn't Nie Chen worried about this? Nie Chen, tell Da Zhuang."
Nie Chen smiled and said,
"Be strong, those who want to achieve great things must be broad-minded. You only saw them betraying the gangsters for money, but you didn't see their unhesitating strength when they killed the gangsters, and the joy they felt after killing the gangsters. .
They betrayed the black bandits mainly because the black bandits bullied them too hard. If Zhang Taonian had been kinder to them, they would not have surrendered so quickly.
Furthermore, it is understandable that people will die for money and birds will die for food. You can't expect people to be loyal to you from birth, right? If people don’t know you, how can they be loyal to you?
Loyalty takes time to cultivate. We train them, treat them equally, treat them well enough, and let them feel the warmth of home in Qingfeng Village. Over time, they will naturally become loyal to us.
After all, the welfare benefits in other villages are not as good as ours. If they are not loyal to us, who will they be loyal to?
Besides, it’s just the beginning now. In the future, our Qingfeng Village will become stronger and stronger, and there will be more and more people.
There will be thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people under your command. Do you expect everyone to be loyal to you?
Is it because they talk about outsiders that they won’t recruit them?
If you want to be a hero, you need to have skills that ordinary people don't have, and you also need to have courage and broadmindedness that ordinary people don't have. "
Nie Chen's words were said to be in the hearts of Da Zhuang and Da Master, and they both nodded repeatedly.
The boss smiled and said,
"You boy, you have the demeanor to achieve something big. If you work hard, our Qingfeng Village will become bigger and stronger sooner or later."
Da Zhuang also smiled and continued,
"Master, we have recruited so many people this time. These people need to be equipped with black knives and repeating crossbows for training. The black knives are okay, but the materials for the repeating crossbows are gone. I bought them in the city last time. It’s already used up. Can you go to the city to buy some tomorrow?”
Nie Chen immediately shook his head and said,
"No, don't go to the city to buy. First of all, the people in the city are too arrogant. If we buy so many things in Qingfeng Village, we will show our flaws and be discovered by interested people. Niujie Mountain has not been re-established, so it is not easy to go to them again. Push on the body.
Secondly, there are not enough materials in the city for our needs. We need to purchase them directly from the place of origin.
From now on, the people in our village will all wear armor, carry black knives, and carry crossbows, and be fully armed. I also plan to form a cavalry team, which will also have spears, sabers and other items.
We also need to sell these things to other countries, which requires a large amount. We must establish contact with the barbarians and have a stable supply of goods.
During this time, a lot of wine has been brewed in the village. Tomorrow, Da Zhuang and I will take the wine to the grassland barbarians, open the market, and bring back the first batch of goods. "
"Okay, I'm familiar with the grassland generation. I'll go with you tomorrow."
Da Zhuang nodded.
Nie Chen smiled and patted Da Zhuang's shoulder and said,
"These are just the beginning, there will be more good things in the future. I'll get you an AK, and I'll get you a Rifle. Let us make it bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!"
Da Zhuang:? ? ?
That night, Qingfeng Village held a celebration banquet, and they were served good wine and meat, but they were not allowed to drink the hero wine, after all, they had to be brought in to exchange for supplies.
After eating and drinking, Nie Chen returned to his room in one step, pulled back the quilt, and lay on the bed, completely sleepless.
All he could think about was the eldest lady's charming appearance, warm body, and soft Nako...
Phew, all Manaiko thinks about is how to develop the cottage, how to expand the workshop, etc., and how to kill Black Wind Ridge...
Bah, bah, bah, my mind is full! Brain!
