After a while, Zhu Wu opened his eyes.
He stood up and prepared to practice a few more times on the areas where he found the strength of the knife to be inappropriate.
However, as he stood up, he opened the system in his consciousness and suddenly stopped.
Behind the number of recruits, a number "5" appeared.
After a year, the damn system finally responded!
5?
Zhu Wu immediately thought of it. Was it because he had killed five people before?
Each person killed would earn him a recruitment quota?
Now I have five more Zhu Yis.
Zhu Wu glanced at Zhu Yi.
The soldiers produced by the system had thoughts and self-awareness, just like, no, a real person.
However, Zhu Wu had asked Zhu Yi about it before. He did not have any memories before he was recruited by the system. It appeared so suddenly, as if it was created out of thin air by the system.
Moreover, Zhu Yi was completely loyal to Zhu Wu and would never have the thought of betraying him.
Zhu Wu was a little excited that there were going to be five more loyal soldiers. He almost pressed the call button immediately, but he was stopped by his rationality.
No, it was not appropriate.
Now that they were recruiting soldiers, there was no way to explain where these people came from.
Or…
Zhu Wu stared at Zhu Yi as a thought appeared in his mind.
In the evening, a young man came to Zhu Wu's house. He was one of the ten people who had killed the thieves during the day. When he saw Zhu Wu, he no longer looked at him like he was looking at a child. Instead, his eyes were filled with admiration and respect.
After all, Zhu Wu's performance during the day was too fierce and had shocked many people.
"Brother Tang He, why are you looking for me?”Zhu Wu looked at the person and asked. He wasn't excited to see a famous person in history. After all, they had already known each other for a year.
Moreover, Tang He was still young and tender. He was not even as powerful as him!
"It's Brother Xu Da who has something to do. He's gathering everyone over. He probably has some results from interrogating those two thieves.”Tang He smiled shyly.
Zhu Wu nodded." Brother, wait a moment." He walked into the house and brought out a dead dog.
Tang He's eyes immediately lit up, and he couldn't help but salivate. This year's harvest was still not good, and everyone was in a half-starved state. Let alone meat, there wasn't even enough grain.
He found a wicker basket and put the stray dog in it so that no one would see it when he went out.
After all, there was only so much dog meat, and they couldn't share it with the entire village.
This dog was brought back by Zhu Yi a few days ago. It was very thin and did not have much meat.
Zhu Yi carried the basket and followed Zhu Wu and Tang He out the door.
Xu Da's house and Zhu Wu's house were not far apart, about a hundred meters away. However, Xu Da's ancestors had been rich and noble, so this residence was much more "luxurious" than Zhu Wu's house.
At least there was a front and back entrance, and the courtyard was big.
As soon as he entered, he saw Xu Da and Zhou Dexing standing there with solemn expressions. There were also a few young men from the same village scattered around. They had all killed thieves together during the day.
"Brothers, what happened?"
Zhu Wu hurriedly asked. For Big Brother Xu Da to be so cautious, it must be something big.
Xu Da looked at the door and gestured for Tang He to close the courtyard door. Only then did he say,"Everyone is here. I have something to say. Those two thieves spat. They…"
As Xu Da spoke, Zhu Wu's face slowly darkened.
This group of thieves was actually just a "vanguard"?!
A day later, a large number of bandits would arrive. There were thousands of them, which meant thousands of mouths waiting to be fed.
At that time, not only would their village suffer, but the surrounding villages would also suffer.
"Should we call Brother Chongba back?" Zhou Dexing said hesitantly.
"Yeah, I'm looking for Brother Chongba."
"Brother Chongba, there must be a way.”
“……”
Zhu Zhongba had been the king of the children in this area since he was young. He had strength and prestige. Not only in the Lone Village, but also in the surrounding villages, his peers respected him.
At this moment, whenever something happened, she would subconsciously look for him.
Xu Da's expression changed when he heard that. Then, he shook his head." It's too late. The thief will arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest."”
"Why don't we all run and hide in the mountains? Those bandits can't possibly kill their way into the mountains.”Tang He said anxiously.
"I can run, but not everyone can abandon this house."
Xu Da still shook his head.
Soldiers pass like a comb, not like a comb.
These bandits were like locusts, leaving white land wherever they passed.
A poor family was worth thousands of dollars. Unless it was absolutely necessary, who would really abandon their home??
The courtyard fell silent.
At this moment, Zhu Wu's voice suddenly sounded.
"Brothers, I have an idea. I don't know if it will work, but it's a little risky.”
Shua!
More than a dozen pairs of eyes looked over.
"Little Jiu, tell us about it. We can discuss it together.”
Zhu Wu was not in a hurry to express his thoughts. Instead, he asked,""Brother Xu Da, you didn't kill those two survivors, right?”
Xu Da shook his head." No, he's tied up in the woodshed."”
Only then did Zhu Wu nod his head and slowly express his thoughts.
…………
Yellow-faced Tiger looked at the surging crowd in front of him with pride.
He was once just an ordinary farmer. He did not expect that in this year of disaster, because of his martial arts, he would actually gather such a force!
Can I be called a marshal now?
He rode on his horse and looked at the 1,000 refugees who were gathered by him and walking slowly as if they were lost. These sallow and emaciated people were the " source " of his strength.
If I can take down a few more villages and bring more people with me, my strength will soon break through ten thousand…
'At that time, I'll go to the Great Hao Province and make myself a king…'
Thinking of this, the yellow-faced tiger chuckled.
At this moment, a soldier rushed over and stood in front of the yellow-faced tiger's horse.""Leader, Blackie Niu and the others are back, but…"
"But what?" The yellow-faced tiger frowned and bent down to ask.
Niu Heizi was the vanguard he had sent out. Logically speaking, he should have broken through the village in front of him and was waiting for him.
" This..." The soldier's head was sweating." Leader, only six of Niu Heizi's men came back, and all of them were injured.”
"Hmm?"
Yellow-faced Tiger frowned. At least a quarter of Niu Heizi's group of vanguards were old thieves. Logically speaking, it was impossible for them to be defeated by the villagers.
He had forgotten that more than a year ago, he was also a bumpkin!
"Tell them to come see me."
Yellow-faced Tiger decided to summon the person to ask about the situation.
"Yes, sir!"
After a while, the soldier brought in six people with bloodstained faces. The first one had a slightly cleaner face.
It was Blackie Niu.
Behind him-
The blood froze on his face, causing Zhu Wu to feel very uncomfortable. It was itchy and dry.
He lowered his head slightly and sized up Thief Head who was sitting on a skinny horse.
