Bright Sword: I am Li Yunlong's old squad leader

Wang Tianyou jumped onto a big rock and picked up a simple loudspeaker made of paper.

“Fellow villagers, join us and we will be able to keep you safe.

Join us and we can keep you fed.

Join us, and we will make sure you never have to endure this humiliation again."

Wang Tianyou's words quickly received a warm response from the people.

Over the years, whether it was the bandits or the white dogs, they did not treat the people as human beings, they were rampant in the countryside and oppressed the people.

Follow Wang Tianyou to have food to eat

Follow Wang Tianyou and you won’t be bullied.

Following Wang Tianyou, you can stand up straight and live your life with dignity.

Following Wang Tianyou, he was able to pick up a gun to protect his family.

"Comrade, I want to join the Red Army."

"Count me in, I want to join in too."

"Count me in as one. My parents are dead. I can fight these beasts with ease."

Because of opening the granaries to release grain and eliminating bandits, the team led by Wang Tianyou won the warm support of the people in Aba area.

In just five days, as many as 2000 people came to sign up to join the army.

……

In the evening, Li Yunlong and Kong Jie all gathered in Wang Tianyou's temporary office.

As soon as Li Yunlong entered the room, he smiled and said, "Old squad leader, guess how many soldiers I have recruited in the past half month?"

"500." Before Wang Tianyou could speak, Kong Jie raised five fingers.

"Old Kong, you underestimate me."

"1000." Wang Tianyou raised a finger.

Li Yunlong smiled, walked up to the kang and sat down: "The old squad leader still thinks highly of me. In the past half month, I have recruited a total of 986 people."

Everyone sat down and hot rice wine was served.

"Come on, come on. I don't have anything special to treat you. Just some peanuts, eggs, and mushrooms."

"Not bad, the food is much better than what we had when we climbed the mountains and crossed the grasslands." Li Yunlong grabbed a handful of peanuts and stuffed them into his mouth.

"Old Li, you are really good. You have recruited nearly 1000 people in just over half a month."

Kong Jie picked up a pair of chopsticks and wiped them on his sleeves.

"How many men have you recruited, Lao Kong?"

"More than three hundred people."

"Not bad. Being able to recruit 300 people in such a difficult environment is already quite good."

"Old squad leader, although we have a lot of people, we lack cavalry." Li Yunlong was a little worried.

"There will be bread. There are many people who raise horses here. It won't be long before we can recruit both people and horses."

…………

Aiping Village, Daliang Mountains.

The annual horse racing event is being held in full swing.

The horse racing venue was filled with men and women from the village.

Hundreds of war horses gathered together, and these horses were the best local horses.

With the sound of a gong, the young man leaped up and flew onto his horse.

They slapped the horses' backs hard, and the horses under their crotch galloped forward.

When riding a horse, they only need a rope, no stirrups or saddles.

All the young girls in Aiping Village and those from the surrounding villages gathered around.

Once these young girls see a boy they like, they will come forward to express their admiration.

The people living in Daliangshan are basically Yi people.

This ethnic group is different from other ethnic groups. Once a man and a woman get married, the woman will take care of all the housework. The man enjoys a leisurely life at home while the woman takes care of everything outside.

The war horses galloped forward, and the girls dressed in local costumes were singing and dancing there.

With the girls present, the young men rode their horses even faster.

Because there were too many war horses, some of them fell to the ground from time to time.

The young men who were thrown off their horses quickly looked for their horses, mounted them again and chased after them.

Wang Wenlong, the commander of the Sixth Regiment of the Third Brigade of the Second Division under Hu Zongnan, looked at the lively scene in Aipingzhai with a telescope and waved his hand.

"Rush in and capture the men, women, and horses. Anyone who dares to disobey will be shot on the spot."

At Wang Wenlong's command, more than 1000 people from the Sixth Regiment rushed forward in an instant.

Suddenly, gunshots rang out everywhere.

The sounds of rifles and light and heavy machine guns rang out.

Many local youths who were galloping on their horses were shot off their horses.

In an instant, the place that was bustling just now turned into chaos.

The local people were frightened and fled in all directions.

The screams of women were everywhere.

They rode their horses quickly and headed straight for Wang Wenlong's team.

All the young men on horseback were carrying scimitars.

"Young men, someone has attacked our Aiping Village. Let's fight them."

More and more young people mounted their horses and rushed towards Wang Wenlong's team.

These people rode their horses at a gallop, waving their scimitars.

After seeing this, Wang Wenlong smiled coldly: "To try to stop a chariot with a mantis arm is overestimating one's own abilities.

Aim at the guy riding in front and hit him as hard as you can. Beat him into a sieve."

The sound of gunfire rang out, and those who were in the front were shot and fell to the ground. The people behind saw that things were not going well and quickly rode their horses to flee in all directions.

Wang Wenlong waved his hand, and the white dogs of the Sixth Regiment immediately rushed into the village.

Soon, the villages were filled with women’s screams, and some houses were on fire.

These white dogs rushed directly into the villages, killing people, setting fires, and molesting women.

The local villagers who were fleeing in all directions saw the thick smoke and raging fire rising from the village. They turned their horses around again and galloped back into the village helplessly.

Before these people could rush into the village, they were pushed off their horses by Wang Wenlong's men.

Wang Wenlong walked around the village ancestral hall with a horsewhip in his hand.

"Report to the commander, in this battle, we captured a total of 2200 able-bodied men and 1800 war horses." A communications soldier quickly ran into the ancestral hall to report.

After hearing this, Wang Wenlong nodded with satisfaction.

"Go to this village and find some pretty girls. I want to relieve my sexual desire tonight."

"Yes……"

Outside the ancestral hall, more than 2000 able-bodied men were kneeling on the ground with their hands on their heads.

These white dogs from the Sixth Regiment set up light and heavy machine guns on all sides of them.

The white dogs held rifles with bayonets shining brightly.

Wang Wenlong walked out of the ancestral hall in riding boots.

"Brothers, welcome to join us.

From now on, we are a family, but before you join our team, I want each of you to do one thing.

This is a very simple matter, all you need to do is move your fingers.”

When Wang Wenlong said this, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Most of you have never touched a gun. If I let you touch a gun, I will kill your family. If anyone dares not to do so, I will kill you."
