"Motherf * cker, this trip is not a loss. This grain is enough for our entire village to eat for five to six days, the kind that can fill our stomachs.”
Zhou Dexing stared at the grain on the handcart and let out an excited laugh.
Zhu Wu frowned.
To be honest, he didn't want to give all the food to the people in the village. These people only knew how to dive into the sand like ostriches when the thieves came. They didn't even have the courage to resist. Why should the food be given to them?
It was better to divide it among the few of them who had contributed.
However, he did not say this out loud.
People in this era paid special attention to their hometown. No matter where they went, as long as they were from the same hometown, they would be a natural ally. This kind of hometown relationship could be as small as a village or as big as a prefecture.
The village party, the village party, that was how it came about.
Zhu Wu didn't want to be known as someone who didn't value his fellow countrymen. After all, there were many people in Zhong Li that he wanted to befriend.
In the future, her cheap brother's starting team would all be recruited from these neighboring villages.
Thus, he said against his will," Brother Xu Da, Brother De Xing, we can divide this grain. However, there must be a rule. How should we divide it?" How much? We'll have to study this properly later."
"Why is it so troublesome? Why don't we just distribute one equally to each family?”Zhou Dexing said nonchalantly.
It was Xu Da who nodded." I think what Little Jiu said makes sense. Those who contributed and those who didn't really can't be divided. Otherwise, Tang and them would inevitably have grievances…"
Zhu Wu glanced at Xu Da. No wonder this person had the greatest achievement in the end. He had brains!
While they were talking, Zhu Yi was collecting the captives.
Although most of the bandits had escaped, there was still a small group of people who chose to surrender. There were not many people, only a dozen or so. They were all people who had been hungry for many days and were weak. However, there were no women or old people.
After all, Yellow-faced Tiger had already screened these refugees. He had long abandoned those women and old people who had no combat strength or potential for development. He had left behind quite a number of young men.
"Zhu Yi, why are you still recruiting these people? Our village doesn't even have food to eat. Keeping these captives will only add more than ten mouths. He might as well let them go and let them fend for themselves.”
Seeing Zhu Yi carefully asking about the names and origins of these captives, Zhou Dexing couldn't help but say. The people of the village were starving to begin with, and he wasn't willing to give the limited food to these bandits.
Zhu Yi said without raising his head,"Raise them. They are all strong men. It's a pity to die."”
"The problem is that there isn't enough food to feed people.”Zhou Dexing grumbled unhappily.
"Little Jiu, what do you think?" Xu Da was also a little hesitant. He had some compassion in his heart, but he really couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Zhu Wu didn't answer. He was attracted by two of the captives. They were two young boys who looked much younger than him. They were short and thin.
"What's your name? How old are you?"
"My name is Guo Xing, and I'm thirteen years old this year. This is my younger brother Guo Ying, eleven years old.”Although the young man was a little nervous, he still spoke clearly and tried his best to remain calm.
Zhu Wu looked over. Guo Xing was a head shorter than him, and his face was sallow and emaciated. His eyes were bright and he looked very smart.
Standing next to him was his younger brother Guo Ying. He was a little shorter, and his face was also yellow and skinny, making his head look especially big.
"Big Brother Xu Da, Big Brother De Xing, let's leave them behind for now. We'll think of a way to get food when we get back. It was just nice to let them push these carts back.”Zhu Wu suddenly said.
Zhou Dexing looked at these people and shook his head."Little Jiu, I know you're kind-hearted, but look at these people. They're all so thin. Can they still push the cart?”
"Brother Dexing, you're underestimating the potential of these people.”
Zhou Dexing chuckled and joked,""Alright, Little Jiu, if you can make these people push the cart into the village, I'll promise to keep them. At most, they would run out of food and beg for food!”
"Alright."
Zhu Wu nodded and walked towards the bandits. He said loudly,"Are you all hungry? Is your stomach burning? In this way, there are five carts here, and two people can push one cart to the village. Each person can drink half a bowl of porridge.”
"Really?"
Immediately, someone's eyes lit up.
"If you are lying, I, Zhu Wu, will be struck by lightning.”Zhu Wu said indifferently.
As soon as he finished speaking, the refugees rushed to the handcart one by one, scrambling to snatch the handcart. They were afraid that there was not enough to share. Zhou Dexing was dumbfounded.
The resilience of humans was truly unimaginable!
Each of them clearly looked extremely weak, but they pushed the handcart that weighed hundreds of kilograms and walked nearly ten miles to the village. No one fell behind, and no one shouted that they were tired midway!
Zhou Dexing had nothing to say." Damn it, I can see that as long as these guys can have a bite to eat, they're willing to risk their lives!”
Xu Da laughed." Of course. Otherwise, why would they follow Yellow-faced Tiger?"”
Zhu Wu, who was following behind the two of them, did not say anything. Instead, he looked at the system interface in his consciousness and pondered…
On his recruitment system, the number of soldiers that could be recruited had changed to " 28 "!
Why was it like this?
He had only killed seven people in the previous battle!
Could it be because Yellow-faced Tiger was the leader of the thieves, so one was worth eleven?
No, no, it shouldn't be like this…
Wait a minute!
Zhu Wu suddenly had an idea. He turned around and asked,"Zhu Yi, did you count how many thieves we killed today?”
Zhu Yi shook his head. Just as Zhu Wu was feeling disappointed, he said,"Boss, I didn't count them, but I roughly glanced at them. There were about 20 corpses on the ground.”
More than twenty?
I killed seven. Zhu Yi should be about the same as me. Brother Dexing seems to have fewer, and Brother Xu Da has more…
At this moment, the high-definition image memory came into play.
Although he had been too focused on killing the thieves to pay much attention to Xu Da, Zhou Dexing, and Zhu Yichu, he had seen them from the corner of his eye. He could roughly determine that the thieves they had killed were around twenty-seven or twenty-eight.
In other words, the number of people killed would be counted on his head!
As for the reason…
Zhu Wu guessed that it was probably because he was the one who planned and led this operation. The last time, the vanguard to stop the thieves was led by Xu Da's brother, so the heads were not all on him.
If that was the case…
Zhu Wu had some ideas.
