Fortunately, Wang Jin and Zhang San always set an example and encouraged their subordinates. However, Zhang Mingde and Li Si were much more simple and rude, beating or scolding their subordinates, and the heart-rending screams of their subordinates could often be heard.

As a result, after training every night, many parts of the brave men's bodies were bruised and dripping with blood, and their legs were swollen and soft. They could only lie down on the ground and could not move.

Fortunately, Li Yi would ask young men to come to the training ground every day to practice a kind of throwing short spear. Every time the brave men finished training, they and the villagers watching the fun would come over to carry the brave men back and throw them into hot water for a while.

Yes, and then massage to activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis so that they can continue training tomorrow.

Soon some brave men who couldn't hold on appeared. Li Yi did not blame them, but asked them to recover from their injuries and only need to complete 80% of the training tasks every day.

As a result, many people did not understand. Even Wang Jin and others did not understand and went to ask Li Yi.

When they learned that Li Yi was going to make waves and choose the last remaining people to form a special company, all of them were not indifferent. After returning, they trained their men even more fiercely. And the brave men knew the reason, who

They don't want to be eliminated, so they train even harder.

So every evening, teams of villagers would pick up the tired Yong Ding who was lying on the ground, throw them all into a pool filled with hot water, and then give them a massage one by one without knowing the severity, which often made these brave men

Ding screamed in pain again and again.

But none of them complained, especially Li Yi who went to battle in person every day, quickly completed more than three times their training tasks, and returned to the fields to help everyone cultivate the land in the blink of an eye, which made everyone secretly admire them.

One shouted tired.

Of course, those who quit because they were tired have become the laughing stock of everyone. Every day, there are big kids following behind and singing sarcastic songs, and some young women cast contemptuous glances. In such a situation

Under such circumstances, no one dares to give up easily.

The ancients valued face even more than modern people. They would rather be exhausted to death than lose face. Likewise, they would work hard to keep themselves and their families alive with face.

effort.

In the next few days, Li Yi asked Zhang Mingde to teach Yong Ding the martial arts moves he had learned from the military school.

These moves are not complicated. They are the essence left over from thousands of years of fighting in battle formations. They are often simple and effective. They only need repeated practice and use in conjunction with the battle formations. Even martial arts masters cannot escape the hatred on the spot.

end.

One of the moves that spearmen have been practicing recently is stabbing, while swordsmen and shieldmen practice chopping and shield defense. The two types of soldiers protect each other and cooperate to kill the enemy, and their power is immediately doubled.

So every evening, you can see that the training ground is crowded with people watching the excitement, surrounding the training ground, excitedly pointing at the brave men in the training ground, commenting like a general.

The brave men in the training ground were divided into two teams, using the tails of their spears and the backs of their sabers. Their weapons were all stained with lime. They quickly changed their battle formations and launched a fierce attack on the opponent.

Under the command of the company commander, each company kept raising their guns and getting closer, and the sword and shield players also took advantage of the opponent's chaotic moment to start breaking the formation. The two sides "fighted" together, and the shouts and shouts were deafening, just like a real battlefield.

Very true.

Li Yi and some Yongding asked the Yongding who were stained with lime to withdraw from the battle. They had been rated as injured and could no longer participate in the battle.

After each battle, Li Yi gathered all the company commanders together to discuss the details of the battle with them and put forward opinions.

In this way, everyone's command ability will be improved rapidly, and the battle will become more and more comfortable, without the chaos at the beginning.

Among them, Wang Jin has made the most rapid progress. Whichever team he joins will often win. In addition, he is cautious, meticulous, and smart and decisive. This makes Li Yi attach great importance to his cheap cousin and will many

Let him do the work.

After dinner in the evening, Li Yi was chatting with the old patriarch. Wang Jin pushed the door in and whispered: "Shitou, I secretly observed the situation in the warehouse as you said, and I really found a person acting suspiciously. We are here

When carrying things to the warehouse, he pretended to help, but secretly looked around and asked questions."

"What's his name? Have you investigated clearly?" Li Yi asked.

Wang Jin had been prepared for a long time and said without hesitation: "His name is Ma Sandan, he is in his thirties, and he is said to be from Taiyuan. He just came here alone. He has no acquaintances among the refugees, and he doesn't know whether it is true or not."

."

Li Yi's eyes lit up, he stood up and said, "Don't make any noise yet. Call Brother Zhang, Zhang San, Li Si and the others tonight, and we will investigate secretly."

When Wang Jin heard that he was going to imitate and conduct detailed reconnaissance of the enemy, he immediately became excited and ran to do the work excitedly.

The old patriarch sat aside and said worriedly: "Stone, are the thieves about to attack?"

"It seems yes, so many things were transported to us in the city some time ago, and those thieves must know it. Grandpa Patriarch, please relax, I already have an idea in mind." Li Yi comforted him and went out.

.

That night, Li Yi, Zhang Mingde, Wang Jin, Zhang San, and Li secretly went to the thatched house where Ma Sandan lived.

It was already midnight at this time, and everyone had already gone to sleep, so there was no sound of people around.

"Shitou, why are we staying here? Just capture him and torture him to extract a confession." Wang Jin asked in confusion.

Li Yi also lowered his voice and said: "Don't be anxious yet. The spy has been spying for so long today, and he will definitely report the news secretly. Then follow him, see the situation, and then make a plan."

"Will he go out to report today?" Not only Wang Jin, Zhang San, and Li Si could not figure out the connection, and looked at Li Yi in confusion.

At this moment, suddenly a thin black figure quietly crawled out of the hut.

Several people quickly closed their mouths and stared closely at the black shadow.

I saw the black figure crawling on the ground and crawling a few hundred meters away, nimbly getting into the grass, and then running quickly in the direction of Baiyangdian. The whole process was silent, and it was really difficult to spot it unless you looked carefully.

.

"Let's follow him quickly. If we don't follow him, that person will run away." After Zhang Mingde finished speaking, he was about to run out, but was caught by someone.

Looking at Li Yi who caught him, Zhang Mingde looked confused and didn't know why he didn't follow him.

Li Yi saw that Wang Jin and others also looked confused, so he had to say: "Brother Zhang, don't be anxious. This time we are here, firstly, to find out whether this person is a spy, and secondly, to see when he will kill us."

Tell the truth. Now that both goals have been achieved, it is enough. If we follow, we don't know the terrain there. If we are discovered, we can only scare the snake and let the thieves attack directly. It is better to wait for the horse

When Sandan comes back, we will arrest him and then we will talk about it after questioning him clearly."

The explanation was reasonable and reasonable, and Zhang Mingde and the others understood Li Yi's intention. Their faces turned red, and they smiled dryly without knowing what to say.

The five of them waited for a while, and after about two hours, Ma Sandan finally came back and quietly lay on the ground, hoping to return to the hut without anyone noticing.

But Wang Jin, Zhang Mingde and others waited for two hours, where he could go back to sleep so easily. Except for Li Yi, the four of them divided into four directions, swarmed up, grabbed Ma Sandan and dragged him out.

Ma Sandan still wanted to struggle vigorously and yell, but Zhang San's quick eyes and quick hands grabbed a handful of soil and stuffed it into his mouth, and then punched him so hard that he whined and couldn't speak at all.

Li Yi and others calmed down after carrying Ma Sandan into the clan leader's hut and letting Jing'er sleep with Mrs. Wang.

After a while, Wang Jin came back with Zhang Qianyi and Zhao Renchang.

The two old men looked at Ma Sandan who was tied to the pillar, and for a moment they didn't understand what was happening.

The old patriarch took them to sit down and told them everything that happened, which made the two old men itch with hatred. If they were not self-sufficient scholars, they would have wanted to go up and kick the spy to death.

Being stared at by everyone's cold eyes, Na Ma Sandan was so frightened that he trembled all over and begged repeatedly: "Grandpa, have mercy on me, brother, have mercy on me. The little one has an eighty-year-old mother in bed, and a three-year-old baby below who is waiting for feeding. Please, please

Grandpa spared the little one’s life.”

Zhang Mingde pulled out his saber with a clang, put the sharp blade on Ma Sandan's neck, and said viciously: "You thief, you really can't shed tears until you see the coffin. You are obviously a thief, but you still dare to ask us to spare your dog."

life."

Ma Sandan screamed and said in panic: "No, no. I am not a thief. I am originally from Taiyuan. I fled here and am a refugee. I have something to do with the thief there."

Although this Ma Sandan is thin and small, he is extremely shrewd and knows that he has leaked the truth. Only by insisting that he is a refugee and not a thief can he possibly get through.

"Are you a refugee? Then tell me, why did you sneak out in the middle of the night while everyone else was sleeping?" Zhang Mingde asked.

"Little one, little one..." Ma Sandan hesitated for a moment, and then said quickly: "If you have a small internal emergency, it's convenient to go out."

"It takes two hours to go there for convenience? Who do you, a filthy bastard, do to you?" Zhang San asked forcefully.

"The little one had a bad stomach, so he had to have a bowel movement for a while. After the bowel movement, his legs felt a little weak, so he rested for a while, so he came back late. Grandpas, it is clear that the little one is really a refugee, not a thief.

As long as I am a thief, I will be struck by thunder and die a good death." Ma Sandan cried with a sad look on his face, looking at his helpless look, it seemed as if he had really been wronged.
