"Brother Peng, will you let people live? No, we will never do it!" After Wang Xiaoer and Han Zhongwei and his group left, they came to Peng Renlong and complained. "Do you dare not listen to the orders of the county magistrate?" Peng Renlong said coldly.

"I... the county magistrate is just torture. Brothers, are you right?" Wang Xiaoer's voice was very loud just now. At this time, he saw that there were already some archers surrounding him, and he couldn't help but shout.

"Yes, escort, the county magistrate is killing us!"

"I have been a archer for more than ten years and have never practiced like today. At most, I just raise a stone lock. How can I hit people with a whip?"

"Yes, it's too much. If I continue to train like this, I think it's better to go home and farm."

...

The archers next to them kept complaining that the intensity of the training this morning was something they had never encountered before. Until now, many people still had swollen legs and sore arms. Now they can only show off their verbal benefits, and only the verbal benefits are left.

"Shut up all of them. Can you rebel if you want to rebel?!!!!" Peng Renlong couldn't help but roar when he heard what they said became more and more distorted.

The word rebellion is like a thunderclap on the ground, making everyone shut their mouths obediently. No matter which dynasty is it, no one will be willing to be involved in the crime of raiding the house and extermination of the clan. County Magistrate Han is their superior. He does not obey the orders of his superiors and wants to gather people to cause trouble. What is the difference between this and rebellion?

"Look, Fan Shan is here again!" someone suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone looked back and found that it was Fan Shan, the vicious servant who was beside County Weir Han. The archers who had surrounded Peng Renlong and were immediately dispersed as birds and beasts.

Anyone can avoid it, but Peng Renlong is unavoidable and has to greet it with a smile: "Brother Fan!"

"The county magistrate ordered the archers to eat at noon today at the drill ground. The adults will send you food later." Fan Shan nodded and said.

"Peng Ai Team, the county magistrate has an order. Your archer team needs to go home for lunch today. The adults will send someone to deliver the meal later." Fan Shan rode on the horse and bowed to Peng Renlong and said.

"What? Lord gave me food? It's not necessary to do so." Peng Renlong opened his mouth wide, not knowing which Han Zhongwei sang. However, the archers who had just left were talking about it and heard that the county magistrate actually asked them to deliver food to them, and everyone's steps stopped. You must know that although the archers are army, they are just local security forces. They have nothing but to receive salary every month. Even those archers have to be maintained by themselves, and the county government will replace them for several years. If there is damage to the archers here, they have to be responsible for repairing them.

"Sir, I said, if they were asked to go back for dinner, they might not be able to come back all of them when it was dark. It would be better to have a meal here." Fan Shan said with a cold face.

"This is reasonable, but because of this, the county magistrate spent money, and the villain couldn't bear it." Peng Renlong smiled. You should know that the food and drink of thirty people is not a decisive amount. Moreover, although these archers are not good at shooting arrows, if they eat, they will definitely be the honorable title of "jump".

"The matter of the county magistrate is not to worry about Peng Ya's team. If you gather people, someone will come to deliver food soon." Fan Shan said, he didn't believe how much Han Zhongwei had, but it is unlikely that this archer team with only 30 people would want to be poor in their own son.

"Everyone keeps the voice! I will be responsible for the afternoon training. It's actually very simple, just a queue training." Fan Shan walked to the position where Han Zhongwei was standing just now and said loudly.

"Brother Fan, what is queue training?" Peng Renlong asked with courage and said something everyone wanted to ask.

"It's very simple. As long as everyone can walk in a uniform manner, I'll show you what you don't understand, and ask immediately if you don't understand. If something goes wrong later, hehe, you know." Fan Shan sneered. After saying that, his eyes swept towards all the archers. No one dared to look directly at his "evil light". Seeing Fan Shan looking at him, he immediately bowed his head and said nothing.

"This is standing attentive!"

"This is a little rest!"

"Look left...Look right... Turn left..."

...

"Everyone remembered it clearly? If you don't remember it, you can still ask now." Fan Shan did all the basic command movements, and then asked the archers below. "Brother Fan, can you do it a few more times?" Peng Renlong swallowed and said loudly. Although Fan Shan's movements were slow just now, he only lived for a small half. These movements were very strange, and he had never seen them before. He didn't know how the county magistrate asked him and others to train like this. But Peng Renlong was a little slight, and with Fan Shan's fierce look, he didn't dare to ask.

"A bunch of stupid guys! Now I'm doing it on top, you guys doing it below!" Fan Shan cursed angrily, he completely forgot the fool he made when he was conducting queue training.

For these archers, the most troublesome thing is not to raise one leg to a fixed height and stop moving, but to let them distinguish left and right. There were thirty people in the archers, at least twenty-five people, and they couldn't tell the left and right, which made Fan Shan so angry that he almost vomited blood. In the end, he had to use a trick that was even more insidious than when he was training. He asked everyone in the archers to take off the shoes on their left foot. In this way, the left foot was barefoot. But even so, it took nearly an hour before everyone could clearly distinguish left and right.

Fan Shan divided the thirty-man archers into nine rows, each with five, and he and another temporary guard He Shuang trained together. Each of them stood on both sides of the archers with a thin stick. When they saw someone doing illegal actions, they would walk in and knock on the stick. As for whether the knock was heavy or light, it depends on the other party's performance.

After an afternoon of training, the Changhua Archers finally had a trace of the army. At least in the drill field, watching them listen to the commands and taking neat steps, they had a little pleasing feeling. The queue training was simple and boring, but it had a good effect on training their obedience and discipline.

The afternoon training is much easier than the morning. Although you have to walk around constantly and be very careful and focused, almost everyone has mastered these commonly used passwords and standard movements by the end of the evening.

"Everyone has it, set! Report the number!"

"Look right, look forward, count, one, two...twenty-nine, thirty!"

"Report to the squad leader, the archers have gathered together, please give instructions!"

"Everyone will gather here in the early morning tomorrow. After the disbandment, you can still have a meal. Disband now!"

With the issuance of Fan Shan's last order, the training of the archers was finally completed today. He heard that there was still food to eat, but the archers did not leave after the disbandment, but walked around in groups of three or three. Seeing that Fan Shan and He Shuang had no intention of leaving, the few people led by Peng Renlong approached them.

"Brother Fan, Brother He..."

"Call the squad leader!" Fan Shan shouted. He was just an ordinary member in the escort team, but today he had enough of the squad leader. The number 30 people were just a platoon in the escort team. Today these people made him feel like he was his commander. Now Fan Shan really felt that he was their commander.

"Yes, Squad Leader Fan and Squad Leader He, why don't you go back to rest?" Peng Renlong smiled. He originally thought that these two were just servants of the county lieutenant. Today he had seen clearly that these two were definitely soldiers in the army. And judging from their training methods, they were obviously well-known to the county lieutenant. Maybe the archers would have to obey his command in the future. Now they have a good deal, which will definitely not harm in the future.

"We are consistent with your officers and soldiers, and we have to finish the meal together before we can go back." Fan Shan said, this was the rule set by Han Zhongwei. When he was in Heicheng, as long as he went to Dake Cement Factory, he would definitely eat big pot meals with people in the canteen and would never have a small kitchen. Today, Han Zhongwei originally wanted to have lunch with the people of the archery team, but later Han Zhongwei thought that if he really did this, it would be too shocking. It would be fine if Changhua County was the leader, but you should know that the Song Dynasty has always been concerned that generals do not know the soldiers, and soldiers do not know the generals. Although the archery team is just a very small local security army, after all, it is also an army.

But this was not the reason why Han Zhongwei made up his mind in the end. In Han Zhongwei's eyes, the current archers are not real troops, and these archers are not real soldiers. If they can reach the level of their own escort, perhaps Han Zhongwei would eat with them regardless of the influence.

"The two squad leaders want to have a meal with us?" Peng Renlong said in surprise. Although the food in the archers team is good, these two are the confidants of the county magistrate. It is also a great honor to be able to eat with them.

"Well, this is the rule set by the county magistrate. You must also implement this rule in the future. As long as you are with your subordinates, you must eat and drink in the same way." Fan Shan glanced at Peng Renlong and said disapprovingly.

"My subordinate? So the county lieutenant didn't want to remove my position as a lieutenant?" Peng Renlong said in even more surprise. He knew that County lieutenant Han was very disappointed with the archers and looked down on him accordingly. What he was most worried about these days was whether his position as a lieutenant could be kept. You must know that the lieutenant was not only the leader, but also his salary was more than twice that of ordinary archers.

"I don't know this, but as long as you bet the team for one day, you can't make special decisions, otherwise... hehe, you should understand." Fan Shan shook his head. It was not his turn to help him decide what his son's business is.

"Oh, the two squad leader, I wonder if I can go to see County Commander Han later?" Peng Renlong's training was the most hardworking today, and he only persisted in the morning's running and push-ups until the end. The key points of the afternoon's movements were the first to master. He believed that if the county lieutenant's escort team was still selected among the archers, then his chances should be the greatest.

"I'm not a guard now, why do you ask me? If you want to pay homage to the lord, just go by yourself." Fan Shan said angrily. Now he is the squad leader, much more advanced than the guard.

"Yes, yes, yes... I'll go after dinner." Peng Renlong originally thought about going to see County Wei Han immediately, but when he thought that the meal was about to start, the food here was more sumptuous than going to a restaurant, he quickly changed his mouth.

The meals at night were similar to those at noon, with large pieces of braised pork, fish chunks in a big pot, and seasonal vegetables, which made everyone eat big pieces. After eating, wipe their mouths with their hands and their bows and arrows on their backs and leave.

After having dinner as fast as possible, Peng Renlong jogged all the way to the county magistrate's mansion. Although Fan Shan and He Shuang had already gone to the drill site, the guard in front of the county magistrate's mansion had not been revoked yet, and he had just changed to another stranger. After Peng Renlong reported his identity, the guard was easy to speak, and soon went in to report that Han Zhongwei happened to be free, so he summoned Peng Renlong in.

"I've seen the county magistrate!" Peng Renlong did not give a greeting like he used to, but used the newly learned military salute today, quickly put his legs together, stretched his palm with his right hand, and bent it to his eyebrows.

"There is something. It seems that the afternoon training has not been in vain." Han Zhongwei nodded, raising his hand to return the gift. Peng Renlong's salute was not strong enough to be like a real soldier, so Han Zhongwei did not treat his own guards like he did. If the guards salute him, Han Zhongwei would definitely return the gift.

"Thank you for your praise, sir." Peng Renlong smiled. All the hard work today is worth it to be recognized by Han Zhongwei.

"What's wrong with you?" Han Zhongwei asked. Now the county corps' chiefs basically don't need Han Zhongwei to worry about. Liang Deping is indeed a very capable chief. In addition, some cases of Luo Zhongzheng also need to be cooperated by the constable, so Han Zhongwei basically delegated power to the Liang De family, just asking him to report when encountering major cases, and usually report them once every half month.

"The villain thanked the county magistrate on behalf of all the brothers of the archers. Today, the county magistrate not only served us food, but also had such generous food. The brothers were very happy, so I recommended me to express my gratitude to the emperor." Peng Renlong had nothing to do, he just wanted to come to Han Zhongwei to show his face.

"This is what you deserve, and there is no need to thank me. If you must thank me, then give me some training, which is the best thanks to me." Han Zhongwei waved his hand. Although the archers' power is vulnerable, if there is any military activity, Han Zhongwei can only rely on them. His guards cannot be easily dispatched. Even if they are dispatched, they cannot bring weapons. Otherwise, the charge of hiding weapons and practicing the army will be held on his head.

"I promise that my brothers will do their best to train in the future. The adults will pay us for their food. This kind of kindness will never be repaid no matter what." Peng Renlong has been a archer for more than ten years. He also met several county magistrates in Changhua County, but there has never been a person as compassionate as Han Zhongwei. Even if he put his life in his hands, he would be willing to do so.
