After a while, the trucks stopped outside the city gate one by one. Sun Xuebin took the lead and rushed out of the cab. When he approached the city gate and looked around, he couldn't help but waved to the back: "No one is there."
!They were all scared away! Let’s fight in!”
Although everyone had trained for a few days, most of the time was spent getting familiar with the firearms, so the military team immediately poured into the city gate like bandits.
Fang Xiaoyue followed unsteadily with a Mini rifle, stopping from time to time to look at the houses in the city.
It can be said that Qiongshan County is relatively shabby.
There are wooden houses with tile roofs on both sides of the road, and the bluestone paved on the road has long been damaged.
There were no people on the street at this time, and many shops had just closed their doors.
After rushing to this position, Sun Xuebin was a little confused about the direction. He didn't know which way the county government should go.
Fang Xiaoyue suggested that since there are many people, they should be divided into two teams. No matter which team finds the county government, they should arrest the county magistrate first and don't kill him. We still have to rely on the county magistrate to do things.
After listening to Fang Xiaoyue's suggestion, Sun Xuebin followed suit and immediately divided the team into two teams. Sun Xuebin and Fang Xiaoyue each led one team, one heading east and one heading west.
Fang Xiaoyue's team went smoothly. They walked along the street and quickly found the county government office.
At this time, the gate of the county government office was closed tightly, and some debris fell in front of the door. I guess the county magistrate had already learned that the Kun thief had entered the city.
Just when Fang Xiaoyue and others arrived at the county government office, a head poked out from the wall of the county government office. Seeing Fang Xiaoyue and others, he hurriedly shouted: "Master! It is indeed the thieves who are here!"
"What is it called?! Do you want that thief to know that I am here? You idiot!"
Then the head disappeared behind the wall, but there was a burst of yelling from behind the wall, which made Fang Xiaoyue feel a little funny.
"Go find something and blast this door open!"
Fang Xiaoyue could climb over the wall alone, but considering that she wanted to train these time-travelers, she let them do something.
However, he underestimated the hands-on abilities of these time travellers.
Several time-travelers armed with five consecutive rounds came directly to the gate of the county government and fired a fierce bombardment at the gap in the middle of the gate!
The firepower of these five consecutive rounds at close range was indeed very fierce. Even though it was just scattered bullets, the door bolt of the door was interrupted by several shots in the blink of an eye. As a time traveler kicked hard, the county government door slowly moved towards
Then turn it on.
It must be said that there are still loyal and brave people in the county government. As soon as the door was kicked open a small gap, there was a sound from inside and an arrow was shot out, almost hitting the crosser who kicked the door in front of him.
He was so frightened that he pushed the muzzle of the gun into the crack of the door, and then fired the remaining three bullets in one breath.
At the same time, several screams sounded inside.
After Fang Xiaoyue pushed the door open and led people in, she discovered that there were several government officials lying behind the door who were yelling. A wooden bow fell next to one of them, but this person had been hit in the face by a shotgun.
On the bed, his face was covered with iron and blood, and he was dying to see it.
The appearance of this county government office was extremely shabby, but when Fang Xiaoyue led people into the backyard, they saw a layout similar to Jiangnan gardens.
Small bridges, flowing water, bamboo forests, pavilions, etc. all come alive.
However, the county magistrate, who had previously scolded his subordinates, now collapsed on the ground with a frustrated look on his face.
After capturing the county magistrate, the next thing will be much easier to handle.
Sun Xuebin was also a ruthless man. Just when the county magistrate wanted to show his great sentiment that he would never become a thief, Sun Xuebin slashed his arm and even threatened to cut off his penis.
After such threats and intimidation, the county magistrate immediately softened and did not dare to disobey Sun Xuebin's words.
In fact, this is not surprising. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, although there were people like Shi Kefa who were unyielding in the face of death, there were more people like county magistrates who surrendered at the sight of the enemy.
Of course, they also had their own version of events. Even important court officials like Shui Taileng surrendered to the Qing Dynasty early, not to mention themselves?
But having said that, on one side, Fang Xiaoyue arrested the county magistrate, and on the other side, Sun Xuebin arrested the chief secretary, county magistrate, Dian Shi and other officials.
Instead, an unremarkable old man committed suicide by jumping into a well.
According to the county administrator who surrendered, the old man was the county's magistrate.
Well, from Sun Xuebin's point of view, although he still admires the integrity of this edict, the fact that he first killed his wife, daughter and then committed suicide was a bit too much for him. As for the name, he is not very interested.
to understand.
The county magistrate was named Zhou Datong. At noon that day, he asked the government officials to post notices throughout the county.
The general idea is that wealthy foreign businessmen are now cooperating with this county to recruit people from this county to work, and the monthly wages are very high and so on.
It must be said that this notice posted in the name of a local official is somewhat credible in the eyes of ordinary people.
Just after lunch, Sun Xuebin, Fang Xiaoyue and others had just set up the table in front of the county government office, when many people came to inquire about the matter.
The recruitment of workers by Sun Xuebin and others was a matter that had been agreed upon by the interim management committee.
As long as the county seat is captured, we can use the chicken to lay eggs and start recruiting workers. Even the registration form is ready.
There are five recruitment tables in total, four of which are for recruitment registration, and the last one is where Sun Xuebin is sitting in person. A large piece of paper hangs from the table, with the four characters "Recruiting Group and Training" clearly written on it.
Well, this regiment training was also negotiated with County Magistrate Zhou and approved by the Magistrate.
The name is temporarily called Pier Team Training.
However, Fang Xiaoyue has recruited many workers, but Sun Xuebin has none.
"Name, age, home address, what you are good at..."
Fang Xiaoyue looked at a local person who lined up in front of the table. This person's face was a little dark, which was normal. The local sunshine was relatively strong, and most people had tanned skin. He looked in good health.
"My name is Wan Lao Yao, the eighth eldest in my family. I am now 19 years old. I live in Wanjia Village, Qiongshan County. I know how to hunt..."
However, what this person said frightened Fang Xiaoyue. He originally thought that the other person was in his 30s, but the other person claimed to be 19 years old.
Of course, this is not surprising. People work a lot these days and don’t have enough food or clothing to keep them warm. In addition, some people are born with an older look.
But this youngest man's face is a bit too old.
"Depending on your situation, I will give you two options now. The first is to farm, and you will get 1 tael of silver per month. The second is to join the regiment and train, and you will get 1.5 taels of silver per month. Both options include food and accommodation.
But you also need to pack clothes for regiment training, so you can eat more meat."
As Fang Xiaoyue said this, she stretched out her hand and pointed towards Sun Xuebin, who was alone.
