    Dafeng Village now is very different from half a year ago. The destruction of Black Tiger Village and the complete annihilation of Shoufeng City's Hou Jinfei tribe made Wu Yiping and his Dafeng Village famous.

    Especially the fishing team set up when Wu Yiping first arrived, it is a place that villagers from hundreds of miles around want to enter.  Now the number of people in the fishing team is only lower than that of the village protection team. There are about a hundred people who go out to fish specifically, and there are more than two hundred aunts and uncles who are responsible for handling the fresh fish caught and cutting them into sizes.  Moderate pieces, brightly dried fish.

    The fishing team is headed by Wang Haisheng, Wu Yiping¡¯s first student.  He was a genius when it came to fishing, and his ability to find schools of fish was unparalleled.

    With the fishing nets Wu Yiping brought and his ability to find schools of fish, the twenty or so fishing boats that go out to sea every time are always fully loaded when they come back.

    The beach with golden sand and the narrow road in the village are all occupied by rows of wooden racks, so the wooden racks are densely covered with processed fish meat, which is cold and cold.  The dried fish slowly turns golden when blown by the dry sea breeze, exuding an alluring fragrance.

    ¡°If the destruction of Black Tiger Village, the complete annihilation of Shoufeng City¡¯s Hou Jinfei Department, and the establishment of Dafeng Village can only give everyone a sense of security, then the countless dried fish on this beach are an irresistible temptation.

    In just half a month, countless people who could no longer live with their children and their families moved to Dafeng Village. New thatched houses can be seen everywhere.  The population of Dafeng Village has exceeded 2,000 in a short period of time, and the number of children continues to increase.

    In order to solve the living pressure caused by the growing population, Wu Yiping further expanded the fishing team. At the same time, all newly moved people were counted and registered, and unified organization was carried out to open up wasteland and plant potatoes.

    The bandits who surrendered and the officers and soldiers of Shoufeng City also stood up for the solution. They were not serious evildoers and could open up wasteland for farming or join the village protection team. It was entirely their choice.

    Those who are extremely evil are forced to work. Zhang Yunshan, a student of Wu Yiping, discovered a coal mine under a collapsed cliff. Now these people are all assigned to dig coal. Even if the coal is of little use now, it will be dug out and piled up.  It won't be bad there, it's just a strategic reserve.

    Ordinary people are easily satisfied. In this era, being able to eat well and wear warm clothes is the greatest happiness!

    This is Dafeng Village, and there is a very powerful village protection team here.  After a month, the villagers who had just relocated and were still on tenterhooks gradually became cheerful. There was really no oppression or exploitation here. Although they still could not fully eat, and although they lived in thatched houses with ventilation on all sides at night,  Compared with the poor people living under the whip of the Dutch, Dafeng Village is a warm harbor.

    After Shoufeng City suffered a big loss in Black Tiger Village, it did not rush to regain its place. Instead, it started a quarrel with Ping Hailong of Lotus City; the Dutch began to appear not far from Dafeng Village.  However, the villagers now don't care much about this.

    Because they have a village protection team, they will go to watch the training of the village protection team in their free time, and have seen with their own eyes the shocking scene when the powerful steel crossbow fired a volley!  Whenever they think about it, the sound of the shrill flute when launched will ring in their ears, and the blast like fried beans when it hits the target.

    A group of children were running on the hillside behind Dafeng Village. They only wore shabby cotton jackets and patched trousers. They wore tattered straw sandals on their feet in the winter. Their little hands were red from the cold, and two clear trousers hung under their noses.  As the nose sucked in, the two clear noses retracted for an instant, and then slowly ran out again.

    These big kids are holding something brown in their hands. If you walk in and take a look, you will find that it is a piece of grilled yellow dried fish.  They ran wildly for a while, then stopped, carefully fizzed off a small piece of the dried fish in their hands, put it gently into their mouths, chewed it carefully, and then started running wildly again.

    After a battle with Hou Jinfei, Wu Yiping realized more clearly the great role of steel crossbows. In order to increase production, he was thinking about how to build an assembly line workshop, and he drew something on paper from time to time

    "Instructor!" Liang Yong opened the door and walked in.  "Someone wants to see you"

    "Who wants to see me" Wu Yiping's thoughts have not yet recovered from the drawings.  He looked confused: "What's the matter?"

    "It's right in the back mountain" Liang Yong hesitated, "You'll know when you go and take a look."

    Wu Shunkun stood on the slope of the back mountain. Behind him, there was a large, dark crowd of nearly 300 people. The clothes they wore could no longer be described as shabby, and they were all hung with strands of cloth.  His face was sallow and full of vegetables.

    ??The adult men among them were holding hatchets,The top weapons stood on the periphery, watching with great vigilance the villagers of Dafeng Village who walked by them from a distance from time to time.

    Among these adult men were all women and children. Perhaps they were very tired from the long journey. The women and the elderly were curled up and leaning on the big packages. Even the most innocent children were leaning listlessly on their mothers¡¯ arms.  In his arms, he just looked around with timid eyes.

    Wu Shunkun and his group were originally farmers near Keelung. Although it was difficult, they were still able to be self-sufficient. However, the arrival of the Dutch destroyed everything for them.

    Not only was the only food in the family taken away, but all the men were also mobilized to build the city.  Slightly younger women cannot escape being insulted.

    Especially Wu Shunkun's family. He is an excellent local hunter, good at bow and arrow, and has a happy family; his father is the local village chief. At the age of 24, he married a beautiful daughter-in-law and just gave birth to a white child.  This is the happiest time for a fat boy.

    Everything was lost in the sweep of the Dutch. His father bumped into a cabinet while handing over food and injured a squad leader. The Dutch used this as an excuse to massacre, and he was the only one in the family who escaped.  come out.  A happy home, a naughty son, a beautiful wife everything turned into dust.

    This group of people escaped from dozens of nearby villages. They were lucky enough to come together. Facing the ferocious enemy, they had no ability to resist, let alone revenge, so they had no choice but to leave roguely.

    They walked numbly for more than ten days and arrived at Dafeng Village. They found something different here. Although the houses here were still dilapidated, they saw children playing happily and holding dried fish in their hands.  , the adults also have smiles on their faces

    Several people walked over from a distance. When I got closer, I realized that these people's hair was very short. Their hair, less than an inch long, stood upright. They looked very energetic.

    Wu Shunkun nervously straightened his ragged clothes.  There was also a slight commotion among the people behind him.

    These people who had left their homes and were now extremely tired stared at the oncoming figure.

    Looking at the short-haired young man walking in front of him, Wu Shunkun's eyes were full of hope and hesitation, and finally asked steadily: "Can you take us in?"

    Wu Yiping was startled. He didn't expect the person opposite to be so direct. They didn't know each other and they didn't understand Dafeng Village. How could they ask this question so easily?

    Wu Shunkun¡¯s eyes were like lightning, staring straight at Wu Yiping.

    Facing Wu Shunkun's gaze, Wu Yiping cast his gaze behind him, with faces full of expectation: "I can take you in!" Wu Yiping turned his eyes back, looked at Wu Shunkun in the front, and said calmly:

    "But everything still depends on you!"

    "What are we going to do?"

    "I can provide you with a small amount of food to tide you over in the early stage. You have to build your own house, clear up wasteland, or find something to do."

    "I heard that you have a village protection team, can I join?"

    "Join the village protection team" Wu Yiping looked at the man in front of him and asked puzzledly: "Why?"

    "I heard that the purpose of your village protection team is to protect your homeland; if you took us in, this is also my homeland" When he said this, Wu Shunkun, who had always been very determined, also shed tears, and it took him a while to stop.  He continued: "My previous home was destroyed by the Dutch and I don't want my second home to be destroyed as well."

    "We also want to join" Behind Wu Shunkun, dozens of young men stood up and looked at Wu Yiping intently.

    They were honest farmers who lived a life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset; however, they encountered the Dutch and these thugs who were full of aggression in their bones; they escaped desperately for the sake of new life.  life.
