"Hou Ye, Tian Honghua's three hundred family members only escaped Tian Hai and Tian Wufu, and the rest captured two hundred and seventeen people and killed eighty-two people......"

"Seize the horses and weapons, and take the family into custody first."

"Yes."

Wang Xiao arranged for the treatment of injuries and rewards, and the sky gradually darkened.

The crowd was so busy that they were already hungry at this time, and the shepherd glanced at the rest of the wine and food in Ma Yongwang's house from time to time, and his eyes were ...... But the Hou Ye was obsessed with official business, and no one dared to remind him.

Wang Xiaozheng was holding Lu Longwei's grain booklet, and after turning a few pages, he was already angry, kicked Lu Bang to the ground, and said: "This is what you call 'conscience hurts'?!" ”

The shepherd saw Wang Xiao so fierce on the side, and couldn't help but beat a spirit. Secretly said: Since the marquis got the knighthood, his temper has really become bigger and bigger.

The shepherd was timid in his heart, and he put back the chicken leg that he had stolen in his hand.

Over there, Wang Xiao kicked Lu Bang over, and planned to teach Lu Bang another lesson. Qin Xiaozhu had already gone over and pulled him and asked, "Shall we eat something first?" Only after eating can I have the strength to hit someone. ”

She relied on this place to be the closest to Wang Xiao, and showed off with a smile: "The enemy just cut off the arm of the enemy general, and it can be regarded as a small merit, so there is nothing to eat?" ”

Wang Xiao thought of her thunderbolt on the battlefield, and instantly his face didn't dare to move, squeezed out a gentle smile, and asked, "Then eat first?" ”

"Uh-huh."

Lu Bang was lying on the ground trembling and frightened, and peeked to see that Hou Ye and the little girl had a very kind expression when they were talking, and they couldn't help but secretly congratulate themselves on having escaped again.

Wang Xiao kicked him again and ordered: "Lead the way, go to the Qinglong River, and then you go and gather all the military households who have become tenant farmers and coolies......

~~

The Qinglong River originates in Tian'er Mountain, converges with hundreds of rivers along the way, flows into the Luanhe River in Lulong County, and finally runs into the Bohai Sea.

The weather is extremely cold during this season, and the river is frozen.

Everything in the world can be sold for money, and if these ice cubes can be stored underground until the summer and sold to the rich and noble, they can be more expensive than food. If you are lucky, there will be a few more droughts in the coming year, as in previous years, it will be even more valuable.

The sky is getting dark, the snowflakes are scattering, and there are still many people working by the river.

They are the Lu Longwei military households who have become coolies, and the word "coolies" is simple to say, but it is difficult to describe the hardships in one word.

It took them a busy day to break the ice on the surface of the river and knock it into large pieces. The ice is extremely slippery, and the river is still undercurrent. People can fall into the icy river water if they are not careful, and once the cold wave enters the body, no matter how good your water nature is, you will not want to live.

The cracked ice is so heavy that it often takes a person to carry it, and a piece of biting cold ice is carried into the ice cellar, and many people die on the way.

At this time, the sun had set, and the coolies who were carrying the ice did not have torches to illuminate them, and they had to keep an eye on their feet.

Someone shouted one after another, trying to make the frozen body move again, hoping to survive the night.

From time to time, someone fell to the ground, and occasionally there were cries such as "dog baby daddy".

More people are still silent, they are used to seeing too much death, and death can no longer arouse too many emotions.

Suddenly, the light of a torch in front of me snaked like a long dragon.

One by one, the officers and soldiers rode by, shouting in their mouths: "Tian Honghua and Ma Yongwang are dead, put down the work in your hands, and see the ...... of the Marquis of Huaiyuan."

"Marquis Huaiyuan came in person to reorganize Lu Longwei'......"

Amidst the shouts, the military households who had become coolies were stunned for a long time.

They still didn't dare to put down the huge ice cube on their backs, and after standing stunned for a while, the cold on their backs invaded, and the blood on their bodies was almost frozen, and it flowed more slowly.

"Ma Qianhu is dead? Are you sure? Someone whispered incredulously.

The next moment, Qin Xuan galloped over, the spear in his hand stabbed out, and suddenly pierced into a huge ice at the front of the ice delivery team.

"Up!"

With a loud shout, the huge ice shattered and fell to the ground.

A few military households under the ice were light, they looked at the broken ice on the ground blankly, and suddenly squatted on the ground and cried bitterly, muttering, "Really? ”

The next moment, the fire was brighter, and the two long poles were held by the officers and soldiers and came slowly.

The soldiers looked up and saw two human heads on it!

"It's General Ma Sendo Wada...... Oh, my God! ”

"Ma Yongwang is really dead?!"

Huge blocks of ice fell to the ground and shattered

The sound of surprise and crying suddenly exploded, and more than 1,000 people or Tao howled or looked up to the sky and laughed, and the sound shook the four fields. They beat their chests and poured out their sufferings and hardships over the years, and cried to their deceased relatives, "Why can't you wait for this day......

Wang Xiao rode his horse, he pursed his lips, and walked slowly forward in silence, looking at the sad or happy faces in his eyes, the ice chips on the ground in his eyes, and the corpses lying on the side of the road.

When he reached the banks of the Qinglong River, he stopped his horse and commanded slowly but forcefully: "Raise the bonfire, we ...... Dine. ”

"Raise a bonfire and make a meal!"

The officers and soldiers passed down his orders layer by layer, and the soldiers looked up blankly at the young man sitting on a high horse by the river, with natural adoration and deep shock in their eyes.

"That's Master Hou?"

"Master Hou has come to save us......"

~~

Bonfires went up.

Lu Longwei's remaining grain was also pulled over by carts.

Zhang Yongnian took people to hunt a few wild animals and roasted them on the fire.

The ...... of the nearby composting, the cultivated field The military households, who were doing all kinds of hard work or no longer able to do work, and their families were brought over, and they gathered around the roaring campfire, smelling the aroma of rice porridge and meat wafting in the air, and stretched their necks and swallowed saliva.

They also looked at the young marquis from time to time, waiting for him to say something.

But Wang Xiao was always silent, and what filled his heart was a greater despair - this is the case with only one Lu Longwei, and when he saw the whole leopard, how far has this Jiliao defense line and even the nine sides of the world festered?

How many of these border civil and military people have already planned a retreat for themselves, and only wait for the Qing army to enter the south, then change their banner and continue to be their masters, and before that, they can abuse the people more unscrupulously......

Wang Xiao thought about this, and felt a wave of anger pressing down on his heart from the inside out.

Slowly, there was only one sentence left in his mind - the Manchu Dynasty can kill both civil and military!

He didn't wear a python robe today, but the sense of power above 10,000 people after the feudal lord and the burden of revitalizing the world both pressed him, and in his heart the violent spirit of the superior was accumulated little by little.

So, the idea was only a month long...... The demons are back.

Life is often like this, and there is no eternity in the state of mind.

But at this moment, Wang Xiao no longer cares about what is the demon or not. He looked at the end of the river and decided to face his anger head-on.

At that time, the face of the young man stationed in Ma Binghe was still the same, but there seemed to be a tyrant in his body who slowly raised his head......
