Wild North America 1846

It's too late to say it, but it's soon.

Richard flipped his hand and pulled out the Colt revolver. Almost at the same time as he pulled out the gun, the gun went off, "Bah, bang, bang..." Four shots were fired in a row, killing the scarred man and the other two gunmen on the spot.

Knocked down, fell off the horse.

In a blink of an eye

Richard pulled out another Colt revolver from the gun bag under his left ribs, pointing the black muzzle directly at the others. At the same time, he inserted the pistol that had fired 4 bullets back into the gun bag on his right waist.

, and shouted loudly: "If you don't want to die, don't move around, raise your hands high."

At this time, you can see the role of French veterans.

Mike Rabiot was not frightened by Richard's act of killing three people in a row. Instead, he quickly dismounted and raised his gun, pulling the Chinese gunman beside him off his horse and removing his weapon.

The two team members following Li Cha suddenly realized it and followed suit, pulling the others off their horses and removing their weapons.

Done here

Richard dug his feet into the horse's belly and drove his mount forward slowly. The fierce Chinese gunmen in the valley, in shock, had been dragged off their horses by Dai Changfu and others. They became

Imprisoned.

More than sixty people were able to deal with eight, and they were easily captured.

Of the 16 gunmen in the Agreement Hall, 3 were shot dead on the spot, and 13 others were captured without restraint. The arrogance and domineering behavior before had long been lost.

Richard waved his hand and ordered, "Take them all back. Who is that...what do you call him?"

He was referring to the reckless guy who just suddenly shouted "Big Dragon Head". This guy looked honest, with a medium build and an average appearance. After being called to a halt, his face turned pale, and he looked cowardly and did not answer.

Richard was filled with anger. Fortunately, he had super fast hands and killed the enemy first. Otherwise, he would have been in danger.

Dai Changfu kicked a captured gunman down to the ground, walked over and stared at him fiercely, then raised his head and reported: "Master, this idiot is from the second team, his name is Miao Xiaoshan, we didn't even pay attention.

He singled you out at that dangerous moment and it was too late to stop him. I suspect he did it on purpose. How about killing him?"

"Don't be impatient. Let's ask clearly before talking." Richard waved his hand and looked at Miao Xiaoshan who was anxious and anxious. When he saw the other person's evasive expression, he already had a rough idea in his mind.

"Miao Xiaoshan, I ask you as the leader of the Datang Society. You must answer my question honestly. You only have one chance. Why did you suddenly reveal my identity in front of the people in the Agreement Hall?"

"Master, I didn't mean it! I know I was wrong, please forgive me this time." Tian Xiaoshan fell to his knees and shouted in panic.

"I've given you the chance, but you still won't tell the truth." Richard said coldly, then raised the gun in his hand, pointed it at a gang member who was kneeling aside, and put the muzzle directly on his head.

This is an older man, about thirty or forty years old, with a full beard and well-dressed, like a small boss.

When Richard pointed his gun at him, the man was so frightened that he immediately collapsed on the ground and shouted in horror: "Master, Master, please keep someone under the gun. The Agreement Hall is willing to pay a high ransom. What are the conditions?"

It’s all easy to talk about.”

"I only ask you one question now, and you must answer it honestly. If you answer it wrong, you will die."

"Young Master, please ask me a question. I, Liu Wuzhen, know everything I know and will tell you everything, and I will never dare to tell any lies."

"Do you know this Tian Xiaoshan? Where is he from?" Richard asked coldly.

"I know this. Tian Xiaoshan is a bad gambler and a womanizer. He owed a large sum of money in our brothels and gambling stalls. Lin Ada and his people came to settle the debt with him. Unexpectedly, he died in

We're here." Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Liu Wu had no intention of covering up for Tian Xiaoshan. He readily admitted the secret dealings between the two parties as if he were pouring beans.

"Early this morning, I received a letter from the church. The letter said that I knew that Lin Ada and three other people were shot dead. Do you know where they were buried? The murderer was Richard who killed someone in the Old Barr Tavern. This letter said

It was written by Tian Xiaoshan. He cursed and swore in the letter that he had seen it with his own eyes and that there was no falsehood. The purpose was to cancel the debt he owed. When Brother Hao heard this, he became furious and immediately led people to seek revenge. As a result...

As a result, he was shot to death by you."

"Is there any lies?"

"I don't dare. I'm absolutely not lying. There are other guys who can prove what I say."

Richard nodded, took back the gun in his hand, and then said to the surrounding team members who were already full of anger;

"The facts are very clear. Tian Xiaoshan is a scumbag who cheats and cheats. He has a vicious mind and betrays his master and the society. He should be severely punished.

When I founded the Tang Dynasty Society, I emphasized the importance of brotherly love, thinking together, and working together to achieve the same goal.

The purpose is to help the Chinese compatriots survive in this difficult world, live and feel comfortable, live a happy life of marrying a wife and having children, and not be bullied by others.

But then again, Datang Hui is not a good person who eats fasts and chants Buddha's name. He shows no mercy to his enemies and also kills such traitors as a warning to others."

Speaking of which

Richard glanced at everyone with sharp eyes, and everyone clasped their fists and saluted and replied, "This man has committed a heinous crime. He decides whether to kill or behead him, and we have no objection at all."

"Captain Dai, the facts are clear, kill this traitor." Richard ordered.

"As commanded."

Dai Changfu drew his pistol without hesitation, and with Miao Xiaoshan's horrified eyes, he fired three shots, killing him on the spot.

Richard didn't do anything himself, which was a lot of talk.

When the Tang Dynasty was founded, the rules and regulations were not perfect. It is not surprising that some dissident elements would sneak in. It would take time to slowly screen and eliminate them.

But after all, Tian Xiaoshan is a member of the association, and he cannot kill at will like the enemy. Any mistakes he made must be proven, and the family law will be enforced in the end.

Killing someone without telling anyone will chill the hearts of other brothers.

This time, the Yihetang suddenly came to the door of the house, reminding Richard once again that if he could not guard the entrance of the valley, the house would be easily destroyed.

When the time comes that he has no home base, he will have no choice but to flee to the end of the world, even if he has all his abilities.

Military training must be carried out without delay, and at the same time, the identity and background of personnel must be screened, and the team must be gradually trained into a combat-effective group that can be relied upon in this troubled world.

While the guys were escorting the prisoners into the valley, Richard led the horse to the French instructor Michael Rabiot and said sincerely;

"Mike, thank you for your help. Now you can see that my people don't understand anything. If a fight does break out, many people may immediately flee. Strict military training is very much needed."

"Don't worry, Master Richard. I'm very good at training a group of peasants who have just thrown away their hoes into soldiers. It only takes two months for them to look good."

"Two months, sounds good."

"Don't have high expectations for soldiers trained in two months. A qualified soldier must undergo more than half a year of formal training, have military regulations firmly engraved in his mind, and become part of the war machine. When a charge is needed,

When the time comes, march forward in formation facing the enemy's bullets without fear. Only soldiers who have been baptized by war are qualified soldiers."

"Okay, so where do we start?"

"Military regulations and queues are the first things that must be instilled in soldiers so that they can develop a high degree of discipline and obedience through rigorous training. They must report to their superiors before doing anything."

"Just let go of the training, instructor Mike, I will fully support you."

"Thank you! I can see that these are a group of great young men with good physical fitness and good obedience. I am confident that I can train them into qualified soldiers."

The two walked as they talked, and soon arrived at the wooden house near the forest. This simple environment made French instructor Mike Rabiot frown.

Without it, this row of three wooden houses would be too small.

There are more than 110 gunmen in the Tang Dynasty, and the original 20 horses, plus the 16 horses captured now, are 43 horses. How can this small place be enough to live in?

The four-wheeled carriage from Russell's Grocery Store untied the ropes binding the goods, revealing a large number of well-packed long and short weapons. The brand-new Colt revolver was packed in a wooden box, with strips and pressure.

rod, a small oil bag for maintaining the firearm, and a cowhide holster.

The second-hand 1777 Type 09 modified musket is much simpler. It is just carefully wrapped and tied layer by layer with burlap.

Seeing this batch of weapons, coupled with the seizure of the weapons of the 16 riders of the Agreement Hall, caused the gunmen of the Datang Society to cheer loudly from the bottom of their hearts, but they soon stopped laughing.

Because the weapons are temporarily not issued, you must wait until the end of military training before you can receive the gun, or you can receive the gun when you are on duty and return it after you are on duty.

The 16 riders in the Agreement Hall are fully equipped. Each of them has a short knife, a revolver and a long gun. The war horse saddles are fully equipped. The horses also carry blankets, water bottles, etc. that are necessary for sleeping in the wilderness.

things.

With these equipment, the Datang Society can arm 57 riders. Except for 15 horses, the rest are armed by the Datang Society. It can be regarded as a large armed horse team.

In addition, a rifle squad with 15 flintlock spears can also be formed to supplement the firepower and guard the valley entrance.

From the current point of view

This armed force is already sufficient. Now we are training and performing duties at the same time. At the same time, we need to mobilize manpower to build forts and lay a solid foundation for the time being before considering further expansion.

In front of everyone, Richard appointed Frenchman Mr. Michael Rabiot as the chief military instructor, and handed over more than 60 people including Dai Changfu to him. He took advantage of lunch to get acquainted with each other, and then started the formal military training in the afternoon.

train.

After dinner

Richard led two people to interrogate the prisoners. The first one was Liu Wu, who had performed well just now. This guy slipped over with his hands tied behind his back. When he saw Richard, his face turned pale and he stuttered when he spoke.

"Li...Master Richard, I...spare my life!"
