Chapter 145: Chapter 141: Return to Yazhi City

However, it seemed that the villagers were determined to arm themselves to the teeth. They gathered their rifles, bows, crossbows and short swords, equipping those who were still capable. Luo'er could only allow his team to instruct them on how to use these weapons. After all, being a special forces unit, his team undoubtedly had far superior skills compared to ordinary people, let alone outclassing the motley crew of the rebel army.

However, teaching these men in their fifties and beyond how to use weapons was no simple task. Once over thirty, people find it difficult to adapt to new things – let alone when their instructors are young men in their teens and twenties.

Still, Luo'er and his team had no intention of fully committing to this task. If he had to choose, he would rather have the villagers evacuate when the rebels attack – a tactic of scorched earth. This was the most practical, if undesirable, solution. Weapons like rifles were only to be used as a last resort.
