Chapter 260: Encountering Injustice in the Spotted Bamboo Forest
The Shizhu army assembled in Chongqing, and went north with other people from Sichuan, and when they arrived in Chongqing, the baggage troops sent by the Shizhu army were to be replaced by the baggage troops of the main Ming army.
When Ma Xianglin and others came to Chongqing, in addition to saying goodbye, they also led the Shizhu army temporarily stationed outside Tongyuan Gate to carry their baggage.
Ma Xianglin patted Qin Gongming on the shoulder, although Qin Gongming got up, he still pointed at the shopkeeper, judging from his mouth shape and gestures, it seemed that there was still an unfinished quarrel.
Qixinggang outside the gate of Tongyuan is a hill, although it is not a large number of residential shops, but it also has a secluded and quiet scenery.
Since several adult brothers joined the army one after another, the two younger brothers, Qin Zuoming and Qin Zuoming, have rarely been able to eat happily and take a walk with their brothers like they do today.
The brothers spent more of their time practicing bow horses.
Rao was born in Jiangmen, and children who lost their fathers at a young age also need family warmth, and there is not only iron and blood in Jiangmen.
This time the brothers got together, and they really had to thank the Northeast man who used the excuse of the Seven Great Hatreds.
In the eyes of the three brothers of the Qin family, cousin Ma Xianglin is not only the first brave general in the new generation of the entire Ming Dynasty, he also has natural leadership skills, and is undoubtedly the leader among the brothers, which even the oldest Qin Yiming deeply sympathizes.
The big camp is just outside the Tongyuan Gate, and after the handover, the Shizhu Army will pull out the camp and return to their hometown.
The brothers who didn't know the taste of sorrow did not expect that the trip to Chongqing was the last memory of the carefree life of these immature young eagles.
Whether they want to or not, they will soon carry the battle flag of their fathers, take their guns, and fight for the Ming Dynasty and the people.
They would never have thought that the city of Chongqing in front of them would only have 20 years of prosperity and peace left.
Many years later, when Ma Xianglin had shattered Xiangyang City, Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong made a comeback.
Qin Liangyu pointed at Kuizhou with a sword, and the lone army pursued and killed hundreds of thousands of Liukou of the two armies for more than 100 miles, chasing and killing from Majiazhai to Tanjiaping and Xiansiling, killing the red-eyed female army god and beheading 8,000 along the way and killing 100,000 enemies.
This is Zhang Xianzhong's thief heart is not dead again, and it is also his emperor dream that he was once again knocked off the cliff by Qin Liangyu, and he almost died.
Some people thought that after Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin made dumplings in the first battle, Zhang Xianzhong surrendered to the rebellion, and then was given a second blow by Qin Liangyu, and then it should have disappeared.
But who would have thought that after another five years, this unbeatable Xiaoqiang came to Chongqing City for the third time endlessly, and once again brought 600,000 troops.
At that time, the four brothers who liked to eat almond tofu had already gone through a hundred battles, several lives and deaths, especially Ma Xianglin was no longer there, Qin Zuoming only had one leg left, and Qin Zuoming had a broken arm.
In the face of the 600,000 Great Western Army, Qin Liangyu, who was tired of the veteran soldiers, was unable to fight again, and in the past few years, she had painstakingly honed the 30,000 white pole soldiers who fought countless small battles, suffered many casualties, and finally only 3,000 remained.
The guards of the Ming Dynasty were no longer able to protect the city of Chongqing, so they had to retreat to the stone pillar to protect themselves, and protect the people of the stone pillar and the more than 100,000 refugees who fled there.
The Great Western Army lost the female military god to show its might, and naturally the monkey was the king and let go of his hands and feet to attack Chongqing.
After six days of fierce fighting, they broke through the city of Chongqing, which was called the 'Jincheng Soup Pool', and then killed like hemp.
The people of Chongqing do not have one out of ten, known as 'ten thousand households Xiao Shu ghost singing', tigers, leopards and jackals enter the city to pounce on the living during the day, and the old and young women and children left in the city would rather face the jackals, tigers and leopards than be tortured by Zhang Xianzhong.
Zhang Xianzhong was afraid that the corpses of the people of Chongqing would stink in the city, so he couldn't stay anymore, so he sent people to drag all the countless corpses in the city to Qixinggang to dig a pit and bury them.
It was at this time that the brothers walked leisurely at the foot of the Qixinggang.
And today's Qixinggang became a mass grave at that time, burying countless lonely souls and wild ghosts, and in the next three hundred years, there was no one to live.
In the past three hundred years, standing on the tower of Tongyuan Gate and looking at the outside, you can only see the tombs of Qixinggang stacked graves.
The day is desolate and desolate, and there is no color.
Ghosts weep at night, and phosphorus fire is everywhere.
And those unjust souls who stacked corpses and abandoned them in Qixinggang, who still remembers that there was a one-eyed general who swore to defend the city to the death, and in the end he fought to the death and did not retreat, and coexisted and died with another city, Xiangyang City?
On the way back to Tongyuanmen, Ma Xianglin suddenly stopped his steps and looked sideways at the grove on the west side of the road.
The brothers have been practicing martial arts all year round and have extremely deaf ears, and at this time, they almost all heard the sound of a weak woman crying in the grove.
The gluttonous Qin Gongming immediately began to grind his teeth, rubbing his hands together and scolding:
"Straight lady thief, in broad daylight, who dares to rob the people's daughter, let go of that weak woman, let me come!"
As he spoke, he kicked his ass with his heels, and was the first to rush into the grove with his teeth and claws.
And there was a broken gong in the grove that soon gave Qin Gongming a response: "Acquaintances hurry up, don't spoil the good things of the masters!" ”
As soon as he heard it, he knew that the people in the woods were not good people, and as the best soldier, Ma Xianglin frowned a little at Qin Gongming's recklessness.
If it is not an existential situation, a soldier should always think about how to be invincible.
Unhurriedly, he said to his two younger brothers:
"After the third child stays on the side of the road, in case it is a large stock of grass robbers, we don't have weapons, it's not easy to deal with, and the so-called grass robbers now are almost no different from the army, which is very difficult to deal with.
If you really make a move, you should go to the nearest gate and call a team of soldiers to help in the battle. ”
"Order!" Qin Zuoming clenched his fists, and then crossed his body like a little adult to look around, just waiting for the signs to be wrong, and immediately ran to Tongyuan Gate to move troops.
"Fourth, you are small, you follow your cousin far away, waiting for an opportunity, and your cousin will go to support the second brother."
"Order!" Qin Zuoming also had a straight face.
Seeing the two little guys as if they were facing a great enemy, Ma Xianglin hooked the corners of his lips and smiled slyly.
Afraid that the two younger brothers will be hurt in the chaos, and can't hurt their self-esteem, bluntly say what they can't do.
Who can say that the important task assigned by Ma Xianglin to the two children is not the alternative care of a brother?
In the huge spotted bamboo forest, there are not many weeds on the ground, and there are more than a dozen evil slaves squeezing open the spotted bamboo, lined up around a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian wearing a pig's mouth scarf.
In front of the immobile middle-aged man, a teenage girl was kneeling with a white cloth wrapped around her forehead.
She knelt between the two rolls of straw mats, and judging from the two pairs of black and red bare feet that appeared in the two rolls of straw mats, they were two deceased, a man and a woman.
The two deceased who have not been dead for a day or two must be the girl's parents, right?
Ma Xianglin's eyes never let go of the slightest.
His eyes soon caught eye on the little girl's dirty hands.
It was only the middle of autumn, and the girl's hands were already covered with chilblains.
