On the eleventh day of July in the ninth year of Jinghan, at the junction of Huzhou and Hangzhou, after noon, the clouds in the sky seemed to shroud the world in the afternoon, and thunderstorms gathered. In the camp, thousands of remnants of the Wude battalion began to gather towards the clearing.

Uneasiness permeated the crowd, and on the side of the main tent, the generals and gentry who were now able to participate in the high-level of the fleeing team quarreled fiercely in this gloomy atmosphere, and there were also those with relatively violent "sexual" personalities, who seemed to want to do it, and then were stopped by the people around them. []

Not only here, but the army of Lu Sheath discovered the direction where everyone was hiding, and the news that they were rushing towards this side at this time had gradually spread to the army. The common people also heard a little about it at this time, but the "commotion" and "chaos" did not rise for a while, because if the matter was true, everyone would not even be able to make a reckless decision now, and the rivers and lakes that were about to rain would be in the future, and the future would be self-contained, and no one would know where to flee.

Some people are confirming the truth of the matter, and some people are looking for people they know and asking for solutions. On the side of the main business account, all kinds of people have paid the most attention. Tang Xiuxuan, Qian Haiping, Chen Xingdu, the sick young scholar Ning Liheng, and even more people who had been famous and famous in Hangzhou were all watched closely by everyone.

Ning Yi would occasionally talk to some people briefly, and the one who spoke the most was probably Tang Xiuxuan over there, as one of the heads of the four major families, this old man still had the highest status and had the most connections. The Wu Dynasty has been emphasizing literature over military force for many years, and even Chen Xingdu can't snub the real gentry at this time. Tang Xiuxuan talked to Ning Yi for a long time, and at a certain moment finally looked at Ning Yi deeply with a frown and nodded.

"When I was in Hangzhou, Xiwen Gong valued you very much...... Now, I have to listen to you. Go ahead and take care. ”

When he said this, a general was about to rush towards Ning Yi angrily, and then was separated, Tang Xiuxuan glanced at it, shook his head, turned around and left with his cane, the general was distanced in the scolding, Ning Yi didn't look at him, and walked to the other side with Su Tan'er's support, although he was already very tired, he still had some things to do.

At such a time, the team led by Yao Yi was constantly coming towards the south where they were, and further north, the Black Feather Guard turned around and rushed towards this side. Under the sky, in the northeast of this big battlefield, across the direction of the river, a woman named Liu Qianqian, nicknamed Liu Watermelon, was leading a group of Badao battalions towards the north bread of Shiqiaodu, she was not in a hurry, just waiting for the landing sheath and others to defeat the fleeing team somewhere in the north, and then go to receive the military advisor she fancied.

When Ning Yi endured his dizziness and went to the open space where the soldiers of the Wude Battalion gathered, there were already several uproars in the distance, and vaguely, Chen Xingdu was talking, telling the soldiers present about the entire situation he was facing.

It was a meadow, and at this time, it looked like a small school field, with a simple platform in front of it. The wind was not strong, and when Ning Yi went up from the side, half of the people looked at him, Su Tan'er didn't follow, and in such a place, she was not suitable to go up and help. On the stage, not only Chen Xingdu, but also Tang Xiuxuan, Qian Haiping, and some officials and gentry in Hangzhou, looking at Ning Yi, who was a little weak at this time, was somewhat resentful, but he didn't show much of it, just some stared at him, and some turned their heads.

On the big platform, there was a simple curtain that marked the position of the crowd and the five enemies they faced.

“…… Brothers! We have no way out, people want to "force" us to death! We can only move forward! Of the three thousand of us, there are only a thousand, and they are all scattered, and there is no time to rescue them...... They are underestimating the enemy now, so we will have such a chance, if they come to their senses, we will not have any chance...... For several days, we have tried our best to distance them, and the road can be pointed out by others, but we have to earn it ourselves! If there is still blood, pick up the knife for me and kill a bloody path-"...,

Chen Xingdu himself is also a martial artist, and when he spoke loudly at this time, the audience heard it, but he was not a person who was flexible in speech, and the repetition was basically Ning Yi's words. After he finished speaking, Ning Yi walked over and handed over the large stack of volumes he was holding to Tang Xiuxuan, and then went to Chen Xingdu's side: "I don't have much strength, can General Chen help me spread the word?" ”

Chen Xingdu nodded. Ning Yi glanced at the large area of black pressure composed of more than 3,000 people, and spoke in a low voice and slowly: "Turning back halfway and falling into death, it was me-Ning Liheng deliberately set up a calculation, and you were all calculated by me." But there is no second way for us to go but to die and live. ”

Chen Xingdu was stunned for a moment, and then he spoke, relaying his words loudly, and suddenly there was a buzz in the army, and Ning Yi waited for a moment.

"There is no way forward, there are chasing soldiers behind, a team of nearly 10,000 people, can not cover the traces of the march, in this part of Hangzhou, no matter how you go, after a long time, we have only a dead end. In front of us, there were nearly 6,000 enemies, but in the first battle of Hangzhou, the team of the bandits had begun to weaken the enemy. The only chance we have is that we are the Martial Arts Battalion...... It is the elite of the army. ”

Ning Yi looked at them, but in fact, this kind of flattery had no effect.

"In the first battle of Hangzhou, because of the time, we lost a battle, and we ourselves were a little baffled. There are 3,000 people walking here today, and I don't know if everyone is starting to be afraid. But the people on Fang La's side already thought that we were chickens and dogs, and they sent five armies, each of which had only more than 1,000 people, and these people quarreled with each other, not wanting the other party to take too many interests, as for how to defeat us and rob us of our things, they didn't think about it. Like everyone else, they don't think about it, but we still have 3,000 people, and over there, there are nearly 1,000 people in those nursing homes and dart masters. Now the situation has been drawn on the map behind, more than 1,000 of them came over menacingly, more than 4,000 of us, just thinking about escaping, 1,000 of them, 4,000 of us. ”

"I don't know much about fighting, I don't know if we can win, but now, our situation, everyone is clear, it is different from before, this time each of you is clear, how we are going to fight, you are also clear. There are a few other things I can do for you. ”

He waved his hand, and someone brought up some large and small boxes.

"Since yesterday, we have recorded the names and origins of your brothers, and those who are here today, headed by Tang Lao, have just handed over all the volumes to him. In today's team, everyone is in the same boat, if you can go back to Huzhou, look at this stage, look at that side, everyone owes you a favor, and each of you can be promoted and make a fortune. ”

The chests were opened, and the light of gold and silver flashed out.

"None of the people here are ungrateful. Everyone is garrisoning Hangzhou, and I know that many of your relatives and brothers are also in Hangzhou, and some of them are also in this team, and some have died in Hangzhou, or they can't get out...... Fang La killed them and burned everyone's houses...... There are also women ......."

Ning Yi paused, and then pointed to the curtain behind him: "They are different from the elites who attacked Hangzhou at the beginning, they are some peasants, and they can't even match the swords and guns!" Fight with us with a rake and stick! By now, more than 1,000 of them have come over with great momentum! We can think about how to escape, now strip naked and jump into the river and swim over here! You can also go over and trample them to death now! You have seen it now, their five armies have been dispersed, we eat this one of Lu Sheath, and then eat this one of Yao Yi, and the rest can't catch up, we will fight according to the river, go around and eat Xue Dounan again, it's going to rain, this is God help us...... How to fight this battle, whether it is possible to win it, you can think for yourself! ”…,

"If you win, you can avenge the dead relatives and brothers in Hangzhou! You can take the silver and gold! You can go to Huzhou and become an official! You are the only army to win this battle of Hangzhou! The name of each of you is clearly recorded in the volume in Tang Lao's hand, and when the volume reaches Huzhou, each of you will not be left behind. Even if you can't go back, your family will get what they deserve, and the living will be like a loved one to your family! ”

Tang Lao nodded: "The old man can be responsible for this matter, and heaven and earth can learn from it." And some of them spread his words out of the mouth.

Ning Yi smiled: "If you don't win, then there will be nothing, brothers, my lady is now pregnant, and she is standing behind." If you can lose in this way, everyone will die here, all this gold and silver will be robbed by them, you can't survive, you were destroyed by them in Hangzhou, ruined your home, killed your loved ones, and those revenge will no longer be able to revenge. At this time, if you move forward, then survive, you have everything, and from this time on, everyone will not be able to take revenge, and you will be dead...... They are a group of "chaotic" people who don't even have weapons, there is no "drill" and no order, so they came here to loot and kill, they only have a thousand people, will everyone lose? Lose everything to them? ”

"Or do you want to get something back?"

After he finished speaking, the whole scene was already suffocated, under the dark oppressive clouds, everyone looked at the big curtain, stunned for a long time, and someone finally said: "You can take revenge......

"How can you lose-"

"Stampeing them to death—"

The sound gradually began to gather, and at this time, someone suddenly rushed out: "Don't listen to him, he is the one who has trapped us here!" "That's the general who was looking for Ning Yi's trouble before. This person's surname is Xia, named Xia Qi, Ning Yi made a troublemaker who blocked people from getting water half dead in the early morning of the ninth day of the first month, he is his cousin, these days, but he has sung a few times with Ning Yi, he ran out at this time, so that the mood of a soldier suddenly stagnated, this Xia Qi then began to say that the plan was done by Ning Yi alone.

Everyone on the stage was also stunned, Chen Xingdu originally looked at the generals' emotions had been mobilized, and he was still happy, and at this time he pointed to the person: "Xia Qi!" For the sake of your cousin's personal grudge with Ning Gongzi, haven't you been making trouble unreasonably enough in the past few days! At this time, cholera is in the heart of the army! ”

The team of 10,000 people is big and big, and small is small, and that day Ning Yi and this Xia Qi cousin formed a bond, and some of the sergeants also understood. Xia raised his head and said: "General Chen, what I said is the truth, if it weren't for this Ning Liheng......

Before he finished speaking, Ning Yi on the stage had already taken a few steps to the side, grabbed the crossbow of a soldier next to him, and wound it vigorously, pointing directly at Na Xia Qi. Xia Qi was stunned, and then put his hands together: "You dare-"

The next moment, with a bang, the blood light flew out, and the crossbow arrow was directly "shot" at his head. The man fell to the ground with his eyes open and with his arms open, Ning Yi grabbed the spear in the hand of a soldier next to him with his other hand, and tried to stand firmly: "Long-winded! Sentimental! Chirp crooked! Not a man! ”

He was already in a weak state, but at this time, he used brute force, and when the voice came out, the whole audience heard it, and for a while, not only the soldiers below, but even Tang Xiuxuan and others on the stage looked at this sick scholar in amazement, and their hearts were shocked. They also heard the rumor that Ning Yi had fought with Shi Bao and others in a ruthless manner, but they had naturally never seen it on weekdays, and only then did they see him kill people so simply.

"There are only two roads! Forward! In the future! If you have chosen, go over and earn your life! I have a personal vendetta! Look for me afterwards! Kill me! I'm with you! But at this time, those who want to "mess up" the army's heart are everyone's mortal enemies! You choose not to listen to them! ”…,

After Ning Yi said this, his hands and body trembled violently, but he was still standing there. There were originally some of Xia Qi's subordinates, and after the initial stunned, someone suddenly shouted: "Dare to commit murder in public, brothers, ......" Before the words were finished, he suddenly heard the sound of "ping", and someone in the rear suddenly pulled out a knife and slashed at him, the person was also alert, blocked a knife, took a few steps back, and only heard the person who made the shot shouting: "Who the is your brother!" But this man was the one with whom he had always had a disagreement.

Someone in the crowd pulled out a knife and pointed to this side: "This person is uneasy and kind!" ”

"Kill him!"

Someone shouted again. This person took a few steps back with a knife, and the shouts over there were already one after another, and many people were red-eyed by the blood just now, it was useless to trouble Ning Yi at this time, everyone could think of it at this time. In the shouting, the man was slashed between the waist and ribs, and the blood flew out, he opened his eyes in astonishment and swung the knife around, and a big man in the group of soldiers rushed straight over, and stabbed him in the stomach with a brush: "Lao Tzu slaughtered you, this bastard——"

One knife followed, another knife, and the soldiers around him had become a circle, and the sword slashed at the man's body, and blood flew everywhere, until someone slashed the man's head, and the ground around him was already stained red with blood. The big man raised the steel knife in his hand and faced the north: "Brothers, kill all those miscellaneous people!" Revenge—"

"Kill them."

"Kill all those peasants—"

"I want revenge!"

In a moment, almost everyone's eyes were red by this killing, the swords were like fire, and the sound began to boil, at this time, the army may not have much good command, but the blood "nature" of people when they are in a desperate situation has finally been provoked.

Ning Yi stood there, spear in hand, watching all this, he blinked, and then, the darkness around him enveloped him. His body was cold, his vision began to tilt, he took a breath, and vaguely heard someone shouting: "Ning Gongzi-"

"Ning Gongzi ......"

Consciousness is far away from ......

Half a quarter of an hour later, under the gloomy sky, on the slope of a hill less than two miles to the north, the soldiers led by Lu Sheath took into view the target of their pursuit, and rushed towards it like wolves, and the two sides quickly came within the reach of the arrows. The few arrows flew over, but they didn't seem to have much effect.

Lu Sheath was still wondering why the two sides received troops so quickly, and the thousands of soldiers of the Wude Battalion over there, with red eyes, brandished swords and guns, flooded like a sea 'tide', and the shouts shook the sky.

A soldier under the command of Lu Shea, who rushed to the front, noticed that something was wrong, and almost subconsciously stopped, and was pushed to the ground by his companions in the rear and stepped on it, and then more people in front of him subconsciously slowed down or stopped. It wasn't what they had imagined, and it wasn't like something similar to what they had experienced in the early days.

The astonishment of the thousands of people did not last long, and a moment later, they were pushed flat by this simple charge in front of them, which was not organized in order and only relied on blood, and the angry "tide" of thousands of people swept across the mile-long front, rushing towards the north.

There was no fierce battle, no rules, no more encirclement and interception, and after the soldiers, the red carpet was spread out at one time, and the corpses were all over the ground......
