Li Xiao turned to look at the man who spoke unkindly to himself. He was only in his twenties. He was the youngest of the people. He could see that he was very strong, muscular and powerful. He was not seen by Li Xiaoping. Most Japanese in this era were very thin because of malnutrition and famine.

This may be because the other party has better nutrition on weekdays.

Li Xiao speculated that the people had farmland at home and hired others to cultivate their land, which belonged to the landlord class. In the village, you can discuss and decide the major events in the village with the famous Lord and the group leader called by the respected old man.

Li Xiao asked the other party, "your name is Hu Ding, isn't it? Why do you say so?"

The young man named Hu Ding, regardless of another eight Lang trying to wink, stood up and said loudly, "Sir, I don't know. I also took part in the battle between the Lord and the Lord on the river. Although the Lord won in the end, my flying man's spearthrower brought a lot of casualties to the Lord, so the Lord is here to take revenge. Am I right?"

"Spearthrowers? Have you ever participated in that war?" Li Xiaowei smiled and asked, "so these spearthrowers are all from your mountain village?"

Youba Lang's face changed greatly and said loudly, "if you report to your excellency, it's the young people in the village who are not sensible and offended you. This is really their fault. Please forgive me. If you are willing... If you are willing, even if you lose your family and property, you will also give this year's tax to your excellency, but please spare their lives. Please have mercy."

"Please have mercy."

Suddenly, there were eight Lang under the stage, and several of our people knelt down as a group. Only one Hu Ding still stood proudly and shouted: "what does the Lord ask him to do? The big deal is death, sir. You are right. Most of the spearthrowers are from our mountain village."

With a smile, Li xiaoha suddenly lowered his face and shouted, "huding, are you really not afraid of death? Are you afraid of being punished?"

The so-called zhe punishment is that men are tied to the cross and women are tied to the cross for stabbing. It is a very harsh criminal law.

After the war of Changxiao, Zhitian family besieged Yancun city for five months, and Takeda family general Qiushan Xinyou ran out of food and surrendered. Yoshida shinchang betrayed his promise of immortality and executed him with a sentence.

Li Xiao said that when he wanted to punish the tiger with zhe punishment, everyone's face changed. The old youba Lang burst into tears and cried and said, "Sir, please be kind and have mercy on the people in my mountain village. The tiger's parents died early, so without discipline, please let him live."

Hu Ding laughed and said, "if you don't ask him, I'll die if I die. What are you afraid of?"

Li Xiaoyan nodded secretly. Such a person is not afraid of life and death, is upright and can become his own warrior.

Li Xiao stood up and said, "Hu Ding, in addition to you, how many people in this village have joined the river army and fought with me."

Hu Ding suddenly turned pale and said, "don't you even let them go? I'll do it myself. Don't bother others."

Li Xiao nodded and said, "well said, Fuxin on the river, who tried to kill me, has been killed by me. Therefore, my gratitude and resentment with him has ended. I will not be angry with anyone in your mountain village."

Hu Ding was so surprised that he opened his mouth wide and asked, "Sir, is what you said true?"

But youba Lang was old and refined. He was afraid that Li Xiao would repent again. He quickly said, "thank you for your mercy. The people in our mountain village are very grateful for this and are willing to die for you."

Li xiaoha smiled and said, "Hu Ding, of course what I said is true. Not only that, I appreciate your outspoken courage, so I want you to be my warrior. Would you like to?"

"Samurai?"

The tiger will be covered at once. He knows how big the gap between the warrior and the people is and how it can't be crossed.

Yoshiro muxiateng has been under Nobunaga Toyoda for seven years. He has accompanied him with a smile, served him wholeheartedly, and made contributions for many times. Only then did Nobunaga Toyoda officially promote him to the head of Zuqing group and become a warrior.

Because of his disability, Yamamoto went all over the world to seek an official. He didn't become a warrior until he was in his forties.

But Li Xiao promised to let him meet for the first time. He was born of ordinary people and made no effort to become his own warrior, which undoubtedly broke the rules at that time. But Li Xiao is from the Ming Dynasty, so he won't care about so many rules in Japan.

Hu Ding bowed down at once and said in fear: "Sir, Hu Ding did nothing, so he was promoted to a warrior by adults. I'm not very afraid. Please take back the order. Hu Ding is willing to be with adults and be a servant."

Well, for Hu Ding's humility, Li Xiaoxin nodded with appreciation.

Shigang Yiyu also said: "adult, it's really not easy to promote, which will make our family disorder."

"Well," Li Xiao took the samurai sword from Shigang Yiyu's hand and said, "it's not too late to be promoted to a samurai when you have made great achievements for me in the future. Now follow me."

"Oh!"

Hu Ding agreed excitedly. This time, instead of dying, he became the Lord's attendant. Although he is not a warrior now, the LORD promised him that he would be promoted to a warrior as long as he made contributions.

All this makes the tiger must feel like a dream, as if living in unreal.

Li Xiao declined youba Lang's request to stay for hospitality and walked out of his big house.

A large number of people gathered outside the village. Obviously, they were waiting for the news in the house.

Li Xiao stood on the steps, looked down at the people, and then said loudly, "people, I am Li Xiao, a new land here. I came from the Ming Dynasty. I have understood the difficulties of everyone, so this year's tax will be paid after the autumn harvest and halved."

As soon as Li Xiao's voice fell, countless people were excited and thanked Li Xiao for his kindness.

Li Xiao continued: "but the Lord of our family ordered me to build a city here. We must use everyone to build a city. Therefore, we must participate, and I will not treat you badly. Every common people who serve the general service will have two rice a day."

Li Xiao's voice fell so quickly that the people present were more excited than just now.

In the past, when the LORD was enlisting for general service, where would he give support rice? Every time he went, he ate and drank his own food or brought his own dry food.

Li Xiao's relatively benevolent move immediately won the support of the people, and Hu Ding felt that he had not followed the wrong person.

But for Li Xiao, building Shengang city is the first priority. Now it is July. Shengang city must be built before the arrival of heavy snow in October. Otherwise, when the weather is bad, there is no way to build it, and it can only be delayed until next year.

When the snow melts and the mountain path is accessible in the spring of next year, the Takeda family will continue to store the military grain stored in Antan county from the mountain path to Shengang city.

Because of the heavy snow, the time for the use of troops in Feiyu country is only half a year. Undoubtedly, the key to this delay is to delay the time for the Takeda army to attack Feiyu country.

Once the construction year is delayed to next year, it is in violation of the deadline issued by Takeda Xinxuan.

Therefore, for Li Xiao, in any case, Shengang city should be built before October this year.

However, compared with the weather and manpower considerations, Li Xiao is more worried about the interference of his sister's family.

From the consideration of sister Xiaodao's family, they will never allow the Wutian family to build such a frontier city in front of their house. The jiangma family's attitude is very clear. It's better not to add chaos to Li Xiao, let alone help Li Xiao.

Therefore, Li Xiao must first lay a foundation locally and recruit a force here to strengthen his standing army.

Otherwise, with only 100 people now, it is simply not enough to resist the harassment of my sister's family.

Therefore, this tiger determination is a step for Li Xiao to consider winning over local forces. Only by winning over local forces can he firmly take root in the local area. Otherwise, Li Xiao is an outsider and has no good way to attack his sister Xiaolu's family.

After getting the support of the people of Youshan village, Li Xiao directly asked youba Lang and Hu made it clear that he would recruit a standing team of 100 in his territory.

If it is like the battle with the river family before, the elite spearthrowers should be as many as they have.

As a standing army, Li Xiao still offers seven annual salaries and two benefits to support rice. This salary is a high salary for the poor flying people.

Li Xiaoben thought youba Lang and Hu would be very happy about it, but unexpectedly, youba Lang and Hu Ding showed embarrassment on their faces.

Li Xiao was surprised and understood the reason when he asked.

It turned out that they didn't let the woodcutters in the village serve as Li Xiao's standing stock, but those spearthrowers were Dalits.

In the 4th-7th century, Feiyu was still a remote and barren place for the Dahe court at that time, so it became a place for demoted officials and prisoners to exile.

Many of them were demoted as Dalits. They were the Dalits at the lowest level of society at that time, and their status was even lower than that of ordinary people.

Dalits also serve as Dalits. Japan has always been a Buddhist country, so ordinary people, even ordinary people, do not engage in slaughtering and tanning. Only Dalits can work in this industry.

For the warriors at that time, although they generally did not eat meat, leather could be used as saddle and armor, so this was also the demand of the Dalits.

The lumberjacks of Feiyu country were deposed and exiled by the imperial court and became cheap nationality for generations.

As cheap people, they usually don't care about it, but they can go hunting in the mountains and think that eating meat is the victory. In particular, Feiyu is rich in wild bears, bear meat and bear paws, which are nutritious.

It is because they have no shortage of food and log every day, so they are particularly healthy, far more than the ordinary people who don't have enough food every day and eat vegetarians all day in this era.

But even so, because their status is so low that they are inferior to ordinary people, Daming will not recruit them as light enough.

This time, the river family was determined to rebel, so they pieced together the army everywhere, so they made an exception to recruit woodcutters from Youshan village as special soldiers for spearthrowers.

In the standing confrontation with Li Xiao's Takeda army, this strange soldier made great achievements by throwing and killing spears.

In youba Lang's and Hu Ding's thinking, he felt that Li Xiao would dislike their identity as Dalits, so he would not recruit them for standing.

But in the modern thinking of Li Xiao, there is no such consideration. (to be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly ticket at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
