Chapter 40 Fortunately, I defected to the Three Kingdoms Village!
The killings in the village soon stopped, but after a cavalry invited me into the village, I heard more and more crying.
Most of the houses in Matsumoto village are grass and trees. After the fire started, at least two-thirds of the houses were destroyed by fire. There were corpses of villagers everywhere. At least dozens of ragged women were lying on the ground crying and crying, sitting on the ground, crying sadly, shouting the names of their relatives.
More than thirty middle-aged men in their forties were dragging their bodies in groups of three or three to move to the small square in the middle of the village. Seeing their casually pulling their feet and dragging them, I knew that these men who were shot were one of the bandits.
The square has been cleared.
There were about twenty bodies piled up together, and there were more than a dozen men with ropes tied to the ground, motionless, and most of them were unclothed and extremely thin.
Ba Ye’s body was covered in blood. He was holding a saber and stood there looking like a majestic demon. The villagers of Matsumoto Village around him looked at him with extremely awe and fear.
"Haha, son!" Seeing me coming, Master Ba smiled, pointed to the corpse and prisoners opposite and said, "Guess, how many of them are there in total?"
I glanced over, calculated, and blurted out, "Fifty people?"
"Yes! There are only forty-three people!" Ba Ye shook his head: "There are more than 700 people in Matsumoto Village! There are more than 100 people killed alone, and there are more than 100 women who have been humiliated. There are only more than 100 disabled people left in the village, and the rest are all gone."
"What a fucking group of soft eggs!" Oshima Heiyao spat with disdain.
To be honest, when the twenty-nine cavalry rushed in and prepared to fight, they actually found the bandits with swords and guns, and they didn't even have the strength to get up. They were simply cattle and sheep that could be slaughtered, and the number of people was surprisingly small. So everyone's murderous aura turned into a funny and angry mood.
They were all figures who came from the knife and gun. Seeing such a weak and incompetent village, they really didn't have much sympathy.
However, no matter what, the bandits were caught and killed, and the remaining villagers of Matsumoto Village also began their activities timidly. The most courageous one was the insulted women. They dragged their tired bodies, gritted their teeth and got up to pick up things, bandaged the injured men, and were as busy as if they had never experienced a hellish night last night.
"Tsk tsk, the women here are really more effective than men!" Ma Chuanniu sighed: "Just like Liuyin Harbor, these people are really strange. How can they be worse than women?"
"That's not necessarily." I sneered: "Under our training, women will become men, and men will become bears! It's just that these people have the value of training."
"Do you think they have training value?" Ba Ye asked curiously.
"No."
I shook my head very simply, "In my mind, the best place for this group of people is to be about 18,000 acres of farmers on the Liuyin Harbour. Anyway, they also have this specialty, and they will not fight to the death and have someone to protect them. This is the most suitable for them."
Master Ba looked slightly, but cursed angrily: "Damn! I originally wanted to collect some troops, but it seemed that I was going to push it back again! Why is it so difficult to find a man?"
I also agree with Ba Ye’s idea.
Before this, I felt that among the three of us, the newly joined farmers were not strong enough and the courage was not good, but compared to the men in Matsumoto Village, farmers were definitely very excellent.
After all, many times when we fought against bandits, they all mustered up the courage to rush out to help, and no one ran away.
Although they don’t play a big role, a person’s ability can be trained, but his courage cannot be changed. As long as the farmers have the courage to fight, we will definitely be strong!
Matsumoto Village was almost broken, but there was still a few good news.
The first thing is that their granary was not burned. This is thanks to Matsumoto Satsu's daily protection. Not only did they build the granary very close to the water source, but they were very far away from everyone's house, and they were also stored in batches and places.
Last night, the bandits had only time to kill and enjoy, and before they could open the warehouse and take away the food, it was cheaper for us.
There are two warehouses in Matsumoto Village on the ground near the river, and two of them belong to cellars, and the location is very hidden.
When I opened it, I saw that it was full of rice, radish, and cabbage, and at least tens of thousands of kilograms of rapeseed oil were filled with 500 jars, which totaled at least 20,000 kilograms.
In addition, every household has its own small cellar, so we are not ready to move the things there. Only when the escaped villagers come back and return them will they willingly follow us to Liuyin Harbour.
There is also a more secret warehouse, just inside a dark room below the small square. This dark room where the village chief and elders knew how to enter and exit. At noon, Sanpingwei rushed over with the large army and opened it.
Of course, Matsumoto Village cannot have a lot of gold, silver and jewelry like the "Ten Thousand Beasts Group", but the things in the dark room make us happier than gold, silver and jewelry.
Because there are more than 20,000 kilograms of excellent rice seeds, 10,000 kilograms of radish seeds! 10,000 kilograms of cabbage seeds!
The seeds of other types of leeks, eggplant, etc. also exceeded one thousand kilograms.
All the property of Matsumoto Village for decades is here.
Grandma, I'm getting rich this time!
Holding all kinds of seeds, my face smiled and flowers bloomed. With them, the more than 18,000 acres of fertile land in the port were finally available!
Another good news is that we found a large number of farming tools in Matsumoto Village, such as hoes, iron rakes, sickles, plows, rice hulling machines, grain blowers, etc. Now we got rid of the history of working with wooden tools.
The most important thing is of course that there are ten plowing oxen in Matsumoto Village, which makes everyone, including Baye, greedy, and several uncles are clamoring to eat beef.
I'm gonna be!
I immediately led my friends and drove them all away.
You guys who are disrespectful are oxen! You can’t even exchange a ox for a hundred taels of gold!
With them, our farming needs to be ten times more convenient, which can save a lot of manpower and increase production and income. It is really the most precious treasure for making a fortune in farming. How can we be eaten?
While instructing my friends to protect the plowing ox, I also looked at the villagers of Matsumoto Village who had been returning continuously, lying at the door of their house and cried bitterly. The crying that had already stopped was getting stronger and stronger.
It is now afternoon, and more than 300 villagers have returned to the village one after another. In addition to crying and reuniting with their relatives, many people are also suffering from the pain of losing their relatives.
I ordered the women in the village to cook some white rice porridge and make hundreds of tuna meat patties, and gave them to the villagers of Matsumoto Village who had not eaten for a long time, which to a certain extent relieved their sadness.
There were 159 people in Matsumoto village who died last night, 78 others injured, 86 women who survived the ruins, and 337 people have now run back. Except for the 52 people who left yesterday afternoon, the total number of people in Matsumoto village is less than fifty.
Most of the dead were the elderly and important figures in the village. The important figures were a little pitiful. Because they sat close to Matsumoto Sho, they were killed by the bandits. They didn't even let the children go. While making Sanpingwei who had just returned, he secretly felt a little bit of gratitude: Fortunately, he left, otherwise he would have died like this last night.
(Please recommend it, please give me a reward!)
