Chapter 70: Husband, Be Like It

The morning sun had just risen, and in the wilderness, a dilapidated carriage was slowly moving. The cart was pulled www.biquge.info two thin yellow horses, with their heads pulled weakly, and they walked along the rough road. It is also like an old man who is driving a car, thin and old.

"Grandpa, where are we?" A boy of seven or eight years of age, with a dark face and sweat stains, peeked out of the carriage and stared at the old man with bright eyes.

"It's almost there, after crossing two mountains, it's the range of Zhendong County. Wherever we go, we will be able to rebuild our homes and live in peace. The old man looked back and looked at him with pity.

"When are Daddy and Mother coming?" The boy tilted his head, looked at the hill in the distance, and asked in an expectant tone.

The old man was stunned when he heard this, and said bitterly: "They are doing a very great, very important thing. It will be a long, long time before I can come to see you. Little Tonghu, you have to work hard to cultivate. When you become transcendent one day, you can go to them. ”

Tong Hu nodded solemnly and said, "I'll go to exercise." He got into the carriage, but in a moment there was a hard, but firm voice in the carriage.

"One, two, three, eighty, ninety, one hundred, two hundred......"

The old man saw that the little boy was exercising in the carriage and practicing strength. He looked at the boy's young body, already trembling, but still holding on, and couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart: "Little Tonghu, your father and mother can't come back." I don't have much time, and before I die, you have to work hard to cultivate, enter the army or cultivate the sect. To the three-hundred-year-old Tong family, leave a bloodline. Only by working hard can you avenge the Tong family. ”

Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but hate in his heart: "The Liang Dynasty, the border army, and the local gangs are all murderers who killed the Tong family. Someday, you will be punished. The old man felt some wetness in the corners of his eyes, and he looked up into the distance, not letting the tears remain.

"Huh." Suddenly, the old man saw a blurry black shadow appear on the horizon in the distance. He stood up, looked over with wide eyes, and suddenly saw the appearance of a black shadow. It was clearly a group of cavalry with no end in sight.

The cavalry ran like the wind, and it was still a vague black shadow just now, but in a dozen breaths, it climbed over a small hill and ran towards him.

"Tong Hu, stay in the carriage and don't come out, sit tight." Thinking of Dingzhou in the past few months, the war has been chaotic, and people's lives are like grass. When he saw the group of knights running over, the old man suddenly exclaimed, and with a whip, he whipped at the yellow horse pulling the cart.

The yellow horse was whipped and ran away. Under the control of the old man, they did not advance, but walked sideways, trying to evade the cavalry.

"Stride, stomp." The thunderous footsteps of the cavalry were getting closer and closer, and the old man was anxious, but the thin yellow horse, where to run, was only more than ten breaths.

"Huh."

"Smack."

A sharp arrow slammed into the wagon, barely rooted.

"Stop, or you will be killed." A shout came from behind him, and in an instant, a dozen or so knights had already surrounded the carriage, swords and bows unsheathed, and pointed at the old man and the carriage steadily. At such a close distance, the walls of the carriage did not have the slightest defense, and no matter how many people were inside, they would be shot into hedgehogs.

"Don't, the military master will be merciful." The old man was so frightened that he didn't even care about his horse, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the knight. In fact, he didn't have to worry about it, the two yellow horses were already trembling, and they didn't have the slightest courage to move.

"What are you running?" A cavalryman condescendingly drank, he rode on a dragon horse twice as tall as the yellow horse, looked at the old man with vigilance, did not relax at all because he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and held a man-long saber in his hand steadily, as long as the old man dared to make the slightest move, he immediately added a sword and died on the spot.

"Master Mingjian, I just took my grandson to Zhendong County to seek peace, not a person who made trouble. When I saw the soldiers coming, I knew that I was in the way, so I ran to the side, and I didn't mean anything else. The old man cowered and kowtowed.

"Grandpa." The little boy tiger peeked out of the carriage.

Seeing the child, the knight did not put away his saber, he waved his hand and drank: "Be on guard and search." ”

"No." Several horsemen turned over and dismounted, swords in hand, and leaped into the carriage.

"Captain Wu, everything is normal. There were no weapons, only silver stamps and shoddy food and clothing. It should be someone who has fled. "The search was soon over, and a soldier reported it.

The leading Captain Knight nodded and asked everyone to collect their weapons. Then he turned over and dismounted, gave a military salute to the old man, helped him up, and said, "Disturbed, we are from Zhendong County and are heading to Yangon City." Along the way, we saw many people who had fled, and from their mouths, we also knew the current situation in Pingdong County, a chaotic place, and had to be on guard. Please understand the old man and the little brother. ”

The old man was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything.

"Where did the old man come from?" The knight patted the dust on the old man's body and asked kindly.

"We're from Yangon." Without waiting for the old man to answer, Xiao Tonghu preemptively said.

"Oh?" The knight glanced at him, then looked at the old man, and said, "We are just about to know the situation in Yangon City, and the old man is moving, and our general may have some questions for you." ”

"A question is ten taels of silver, and I know everything." Seeing the knight's amiable attitude, the little boy did not have the slightest fear. He knew that it was not easy for his grandfather, so he asked for money.

"No, don't talk nonsense." The old man hurriedly stopped and covered Tong Hu's mouth.

The knight glanced at Tong Hu, full of appreciation, and said: "I like brave people, the little guy is good, when he grows up, he can join the army, this is a gathering place for the brave." He didn't care, took out a silver ticket from the backpack hanging on the dragon horse, and said, "Speaking of which, my ancestors were also from Dingzhou hundreds of years ago. The old man doesn't have to be polite, this thousand taels should be my funding, and I will train the little guy well. ”

The old man couldn't shirk it, so he accepted the silver ticket. The knight escorted the carriage around and walked back with Tong Hu and the old man. A few hundred meters away, there is a small mound no more than thirty meters high. Beneath the mound, hundreds of knights were gathered, all of whom were burly and athletic, and rode tall earth dragon horses. At the top of the mound, there is a group of imposing generals, surrounded by a majestic general wearing coiled dragon armor, who is Yu Canghai.

"We're in Pingdong County, which is already part of Yangon City. The mound at your foot is the dividing line. Ma Yuan reported.

Yu Canghai nodded, he raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that the vegetation was abundant, the road was rugged, and the dust was flying, so he said: "The road under this foot was originally the main road connecting the two counties, but now it is dense with grass and trees, which is a desolate scene without too many pedestrians passing by. The battle of Dingzhou, in just a few months, became like this, which is really infuriating. “

Yu Taiping was also angry, and said coldly: "According to those refugees, the land of the two counties killed and injured millions of people in the war, and the Liang army killed people when they saw it, and there were no less than thirty slaughtered cities alone. The Liang army retreated, the place was eroded, and many people were persecuted by the local people, gangs, cults, Liang Dynasty spies, and local tyrants who robbed by fire were all murderers. Countless families have perished, abandoning everything to migrate for peace. The people of my Yu Dynasty live so badly, but I don't know. These people, if caught, must be punished with death. ”

"General, there are two people from Yangon City passing by, do you want to ask?" Xiao Wu walked over and reported.

"Please come up and ask." Yu Canghai nodded.

Tong Hu followed the old man up the hill step by step, and saw a group of well-dressed and majestic sergeants staring at him, not only was he not afraid, but he held his head high. Because his family once told him that the army was their patron saint. So he looked at these sergeants with admiration and novelty.

Suddenly, Tong Hu saw that in the middle of this group of sergeants, there was a general standing like a dragon and a tiger, and he was standing there, motionless, like a mountain. He looked at himself with a heroic countenance, full of majesty. He was dressed in deep, dark, domineering, and majestic armor, and the big cloak behind him fluttered in the wind, and he pressed the long sword in his hand, and his heroic spirit soared into the sky.

Tong Hu blurted out: "Husband, it should be like this." ”
