From the 36th Road Smoke and Dust against the Great Sui, to the later Red Jacket Army against Jin, and later on the Tianli Sect, the White Lotus Sect, the famous Twist Army, the modern Boxer Boxer, the Red Lantern Zhao, etc., in this large area that is both near the sea and the mountains, it is about to become a tradition.

It's just that in the eyes of the pheasant slave, the group of men in front of him, who are not much older than himself and not much taller, are not heroes who rob their homes, but upright soldiers, of course, with a prefix...... Future.

"What are you looking at, you use dim sum, and when you go to the battlefield in the future, a little slower is a life, understand?" The old man's loud shouting and scolding pulled her back, she knew that it was the gaze projected by the men, and when she swept over, no one dared to look at each other, and they all dodged away, and a slow reaction often caused a lot of laughter.

Such a scene always reminds her of the years when she was in her brother's camp, so simple and carefree.

"Go and rest, I'll watch them." The old man stood in front of her and said thoughtfully.

"Hey."

The pheasant slave answered, turned around and walked to his residence, Zheng Deyan looked at her back and shook his head, since he came back from the south that day, he had never seen her smile again, always a calm face, which was intimidating, and the words were simple, and he could save money, as if there was nothing to put on her heart except for training and fighting.

After all, this is not her home, there is no one to worry about, she has been here for more than a month, and she either practices various skills by herself every day, or trains these men. If you want to say that she is widowed, she can't talk about it, she is full of energy, she gets up early and goes to bed late, day after day, even the amount of food is not small, and her body is more like a willow branch that grows again, I am afraid that she is about to be as tall as herself, the old man is confident that he can't cope with such a complex problem, so he can only sprinkle his strength on this group of men and train them to complain.

What do you do when you go back? The pheasant slave also didn't want to think about such complicated issues, and when she couldn't sleep, she would go to gun practice, and only under the shadow of guns in the sky would the real enemy and battlefield appear in her mind, not some annoying shadow.

In order to facilitate the reception of news, their group of people has moved out of the small valley, and instead lived in a village near the sea, which covers a very wide area, and the legend is also from the old genus many years ago, as for the safety issue, the pheasant slave has seen with his own eyes in the county except for the county officials appointed by the Yuan people, almost all the official faces have come here to see the old man in the name of He Shou, and the language is also very respectful.

Of course, the most critical point is that the Yuan people have taken away all the garrisons in this area in order to go south, and the nominal marching ten thousand households are fighting with the Song people on the front line at the moment, and the entire Yidu and Zilai Road have only one Mongolian cavalry of no more than a thousand people, and even the top priority of the Yuan people's defense, Jinan City, is only a few thousand people, and it seems that they are still very relieved about this piece of confidants near the capital.

There is no fixed statement on the day of the uprising, the reason depends on the battle situation ahead, the enemy army on the Xuzhou side is under the city of Chuzhou, only when they are broken, it will be the day when these people launch, otherwise...... The pheasant slave knew very well in her heart that the people here would not let her move lightly, from the people here to Old Man Zheng and the spies under Li Shiyi, this order came from Brother Yu'er's direct instructions, and no one dared to disobey.

From the heart, she didn't want such protection, but she had to accept it, this boredom had nowhere to vent, so it turned into a ubiquitous gun shadow, and her vigorous posture was like a swimming dragon, breaking out of the shadow, smashing a grass and wood stake not far away, and the pheasant slave who stood with the gun looked at the big hole above in a daze, and his mind seemed to be much calmer.

"Girl, I know you're here, see who I brought you." After a while, the old man's hearty laughter sounded behind her, and she knew what it meant without looking back.

"I said it, don't have anyone waiting, don't bother with it, you only need men here, a few more women will only add to the burden, let's send someone back to the valley."

Zheng Deyan told her several times about this matter, surrounded by a bunch of rough men, how to say it is also inconvenient, so she thought of buying some maids from elsewhere to return to her call, how could the pheasant slave not want to do this at all, so she never mentioned it again, but today even people were directly brought in, I don't know how, as soon as she saw the girls who were placed on the stage for people to choose, she thought of everything that happened in the capital, as if she was always reminding her how miserable her sister was at the beginning.

"Master, don't drive us away."

Hearing the familiar voice, the pheasant slave turned around in astonishment, only to see four small bodies kneeling on the ground, raising their little faces and looking at her pitifully, each with black ash on their faces, and their hair tied up in the style of a boy, but as soon as they opened their mouths, they could hear that they were daughters like pheasant slaves.

"Why are you here, get up quickly." The pheasant slave leaned his spear against the stake, and ran over with a few arrows, pulling them up one by one, his face a little surprised, but more than that, delighted.

"The main mother of Beijing went south with the eldest lady, and I thought that my sister was still here, so I took leave with the main mother and came to look for you, fortunately, there was no delay with the help of Mr.'s men."

As soon as I heard this, it was a little untrue, the pheasant slave knew the temperament of her sister-in-law, and she would definitely do her best to entrust her, how could she let a few of them go on the road like this, you must know how many miles they have walked, and it is not only through the Song Realm, just looking at this dirty appearance, you can understand that there is no less hardship along the way.

It's just that this kind of thing, the pheasant slave herself has not done less, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, how can she have the heart to investigate at the moment, they are all acquaintances, and they have the name of master and apprentice, and even the surname is with herself, and in her mind it is not much different from her relatives, not to mention that this is a gift from someone, the only gift that can be found by her side.

"Okay, let's go wash and change our clothes, and the days to come will be long." Old Man Zheng endured it for a long time before he interrupted them, and the pheasant slave knew that there must be something else when he heard it, so he instructed the four of them a few words and sent them to their own residence.

"But there's news ahead?" After looking away from the little girls, the old man found that the joy on her face was gone.

"The Tartar army is still under the city of Chuzhou, but recently the Tartar faction has become more and more urgent, Jinan, Yidu, Zilai, and Ninghai have all been affected, and people from the county town have come to say, let's be careful, this time the Tartars are very big." Zheng Deyan just told the news truthfully, and naturally there was still a bit of comparison in it.

"So far?" The pheasant slave blinked his eyes and thought for a moment: "Are they trying to 'draw wages from the bottom of the kettle'?" ”

Zheng Deyan nodded, secretly professed for her cleverness, the Yuan people transferred most of the garrison, but they were apprehensive about this land that had set off a rebellion more than ten years ago, so they adopted this way, sending more people in various state capitals, and at the same time requisitioning food to transport it to the front line in Chuzhou, and these people, as soon as they arrived there, they couldn't help themselves, and it was very likely that they would become cannon fodder for war.

"The spark of the stars can start a prairie fire, we lack such a fire now, since the Yuan people have helped us, we might as well start small now, and wait until the sparks slowly burn up, maybe we can echo the war over there."

Immediately afterwards, the pheasant slave's words made him a little surprised, and he actually coincided with what he thought, if all this was not hers, but from someone's instructions, it can only mean that the other party had a plan early on, and they were just a group of executors.

This is the reason why Liu Yu chose this place in the first place, the bigger the war is carried out, the longer it lasts, for the people in this land, it is a greater disaster, it has already increased a lot of taxes, and now it comes out again, not hesitating to add fuel to the fire, you must know that this piece is not only a saint, but also a thief.

It is not difficult to mobilize the desperate people, the difficulty lies in how to hide from the rulers of the Yuan people, at least for a while, because it is not mature now, in case of a big trouble, the Yuan people can abandon the siege and save it, in that case, all the efforts will be in vain.

"Then drag it out, there are places where your family takes care of you, you don't need to do too much, and in other places, spend more money to bribe the officials, they have a way to deceive the upper and lower, and then they can't shirk it, so they pull it on the bandits, Crouching Tiger Mountain, hugging the calf, several poles have been connected to the line, and when the time comes, they will help us divert the attention of the tartars, and it will take a lot less effort."

In Zheng Deyan's mind, this kind of specific work does not need her to go out at all, but she also knows that she will not stay here and enjoy the success, finding these little girls to accompany her is one thing, and the other is to arrange some things that are not very dangerous to do.

"There's a letter from the counter in Ninghaizhou, there is a batch of goods arriving recently, why don't you take someone for a trip and take the things over, so that they all recognize you and save any misunderstandings."

The old man said this carefully, in case it didn't work, he had other tricks, but he didn't expect the pheasant slave to know what he was thinking, and he didn't raise his head after a while.

"I'll go."

The old man has never seen this kind of expression on her, shy is not like shy, embarrassed is not like embarrassed, maybe it's both? Old man Zheng guessed suspiciously for a long time, but he couldn't get the point, so he could only go with her, at least on the surface, he was still willing.

They are only two days away from Ninghai Prefecture, and the shop over there is originally her and Zhao Yue'e together, and the guys in the shop all recognize her, and they brought the four little girls to the backyard, where there are piles of things everywhere, and it seems that the warehouse is no longer enough.

“...... The Goryeo people are very poor, the men are all recruited by the Yuan people to be the navy, the women are either sold into the palace, or the powerful families in the capital, turn over the coast, that's all, you see if it is useful, it is best to exchange it for food, and the rest are all arrows, grandma's, those Mongols shoot arrows as if they don't want money, and Lao Tzu trembles in distress. ”

"Big boss, do you still have Mongols under your command? Isn't that leading the Tartars to fight the Tartars? ”

"Fart, those Koreans are also worthy of being called Tartars, at most they are a dog raised by the Yuan people, you forgot, didn't our host say that it is necessary to establish a broad anti-Tartar national united front and win over all the forces that can be co-opted."

Hearing this voice, the pheasant slave couldn't help but stop, and her expression changed to the strange appearance before, the four girls didn't know why she suddenly didn't leave, and they didn't dare to ask, several people blocked the door together, until the guys who came in and out urged, and it attracted the attention of the people in the house.

When he saw her, Jiang Ning's expression was still in a state of bragging, his eyebrows fluttered, and then he suddenly opened his mouth wide, and he couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.

Several people in the room were planning something around a table, except for the men on the cabinet, a few deacons, and the men he had brought, and one of them seemed very petite, out of place with these rough men, but like a gang of pheasant slaves.

"The maid has seen my sister." It's really a gang of them, and the pheasant slave remembered when she saw her, it was the woman who was rescued from the perverted eunuch's house in the capital, Xu came down from the sea, her face was darker, and her body was much stronger.

No need to ask, this girl must be the same as the four behind her, they all ran away, their experiences are doomed, even if they return to their hometown, even if they still have relatives at home, it is difficult to live a normal life, after all, this is a society that values chastity very much, and the pheasant slave understands in her heart, so she will take this trip and face the things that she is most unwilling to face in her heart.

"I want to talk to you." In front of the room full of men and women, she said it so directly, without dodging, without timidity, the brightness in her eyes caught Jiang Ning a little off guard, and she even had to take a deep breath before she could catch her words.

"Okay."

There were only two of them left along the way, all the people in the house knew the details, no one had the heart to bother, the two of them led the horses, walking all the way along the corner of the city, Jiang Ning didn't know where she wanted to take herself, until she left the city and came to the beach, just when he thought he would find a place to sit down, the young slave caught him off guard again.

"Brother Ning, I'm sorry, I can't marry you." The pheasant slave led the horse, and his tone was calm, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with it: "Originally, I thought I wouldn't survive, so I didn't tell you earlier, it's all my fault, and you should blame me." ”

Jiang Ning felt a surge of blood in his eyes, everything he saw was red, he knew every word the other party said, but when it was connected together, it turned into boundless red.

He closed his eyes, trying to get the hot blood pressure down, but his hands and feet began to tremble a little disobediently, and he had to lean against the horse to avoid falling headlong, and when the pheasant slave turned around, he saw a clenched tooth, red eyes, and a somewhat hideous expression, but she did not have much fear.

"If you can't think about it, if you want to do it, here it is."

Jiang Ning tried to squeeze out a smile, which looked like anger reaching the top and about to overflow to outsiders, but without the imaginary addition of fists and kicks, the pheasant slave only heard a sound coming from between his teeth.

"You...... Your clothes are so beautiful. ”

Her eyes widened, and she almost thought she had misheard.

This time, the pheasant slave did not change into men's clothes, but wore the costume of a northern Han woman, with a short bun on her head, and a plain cloth jacket and skirt tied with a belt, which is not only convenient for work, but also dignified, and is so ordinary that she looks good? She has a black line at one end, and the two are not on the same channel, which is to talk about whether it is good to break up.

With these words, Jiang Ning seemed to ease up a little, lowered his head and took a long breath, calming his face a little, and then raised his head and looked at the sweetheart in front of him.

"I know that the year is halfway over, maybe in your heart, I haven't done well enough, or maybe you have someone you like, in that case, can you tell me who he is?"

Somehow, the pheasant slave's heart panicked all of a sudden, as if her heart had been seen through, she couldn't say it, but she didn't want to lie to this boy, seeing the change in the expression on her face, Jiang Ning's heart sank, and she didn't deny it, that is, she confessed.

"You can look down on me, but why do you have to be a concubine? It's not that you already have something to do. His words made the pheasant slave look up suddenly, and his eyes became fierce.

"Jiang Ning, listen, I don't want to marry you, it has nothing to do with others." She grabbed Jiang Ning's collar and pushed him hard: "Did you hear it clearly, it has nothing to do!" ”

So saying, he turned on his horse, and never looked at him again, and the horse's hooves left a trail of footprints on the sand, and then they were submerged by the rushing water, and when the water receded, the beach became white again, without a trace.

Jiang Ning looked at all this stupidly, and burst into laughter when he looked up to the sky, and the hot blood suppressed in his chest spurted out with his laughter, splashing on the sand on the soles of his feet, maybe the person in his heart never belonged to him, just a shadow.

Because it was getting late, the pheasant slave did not leave immediately, and found an inn in the city to stay, and just as she was about to freshen up and go to sleep, the woman she had rescued brought her a letter, the handwriting on it was newly written, and it looked very messy, and the pheasant slave just looked up and put it in the envelope.

"The maid wants to ask for something about my sister." She nodded.

"The maid wants to go to sea with the owner of the ship and beg her sister to be fulfilled." The woman fell to her knees at her feet.

The pheasant slave pulled her up, looked at the little girl who was only up to her chest, brushed the messy hair next to her face for her, and lowered her tone: "You are not anyone's slave, you can go wherever you want, go follow him, bring a word for me, thank you, you take care all the way." ”

Sending the girl out, the pheasant slave understood that they were preparing to go to sea overnight, and his words still hurt him in the end, but this trip still achieved the goal. Because, what Jiang Ningtuo sent to the girl was not an apology letter, but a divorce letter, and the most important thing was that there was not a word on it that mentioned her, and the other party carried everything down.

At this moment, she sincerely wished that the boy would be safe and happy.
