The wheels were rolling and squeaking in the bumps, and the women in the carriage were crying. Except for the cry of the woman, all the way, the hundreds of soldiers and horses accompanying him did not make a sound. They were already listless, but now the terrible and gentle crying lingered in their ears, which seemed to make the atmosphere of the whole army even more depressing.

The coachman drove his horse absentmindedly, only trying to urge, but he was not aware of the hidden danger on the ground ahead. The car was moving very fast, and it was not afraid to crash into the pit, but at the sound of a scream, the right front axle of the carriage bent and the wheel fell down, and even the brass rim wrapped around the outer edge of the wooden wheel was half of a nail. The sudden stagnation of the carriage and the forward horses resisted each other, tearing off the bridles that connected the two ends.

The carriage was dragged down and tilted again, and the woman inside was so frightened that her throat seemed to be stuffed with cotton, and she wanted to cry but couldn't.

"Waste!" As soon as he heard the change, he came back from the front. Immediately jumped into the mud and snorted, "What are you doing in a daze?" Fuck me hard! He scolded and pushed the overturned carriage.

Several people pushed together, but the slippage under their feet was ineffective, and the woman in the carriage lifted the curtain by herself and crawled out. She is in her thirties, and she has some appearance, but after this experience, her face is bleak, her face is bloodless, and her embarrassed appearance is still half of the high-minded and reserved master mother in the past.

"It's all you! It's all you! The knight took the woman in his arms and comforted her softly, and the woman struggled unappreciatively, wailing and crying, "If you hadn't insisted on taking me to the water village of Narauszi, I would have fallen to such a state now!" ”

Punching his chest, several uncontrollable punches hit the knight in the face. Rao is the knight usually loves women in every way, and his long-depressed emotions can't be suppressed at this moment.

"Slut! I took you with good intentions, I don't want you and me to be separated, who would have thought that things would turn out like this! ”

When the woman heard this, she immediately stopped crying, and sneered coldly with red eyes: "Really? A piece of kindness? I think you've heard those rumors, I'm afraid I'll steal a man while you're away! ”

"You ......" the knight was so angry that he couldn't roar.

"Also, I have killed several husbands to be with you, and I have to go further if I am not greedy. I am a natural lewd embryo, and you guard against me, and I am also a dignified and honest ......"

The knight didn't wait for her to finish, he grabbed her mouth first, and roared in a low voice: "Slut, what nonsense are you talking about!" Looking around, the surrounding soldiers and horses all gathered around to see the situation at this time, and a few words of conversation between the two must have been listened to for them.

"The famous 'old Huihui', are you still afraid of a woman chewing her tongue?" The woman shook him off and laughed miserably, "Oh, no. You don't deserve the name of 'Lao Huihui', in my heart, there will always be only that person who can be the three words 'Lao Huihui'! ”

"Aunt dog, look for death!" The knight was furious and lost his thoughtfulness of the day, and raised his hand and slapped the woman's right cheek heavily, "Say crazy things again, Lao Tzu killed you!" ”

"Hehe...... 'Mizhi's aunt, Suide's Han', what he said is really reasonable, it is also providential for the two of us to make a pair. It's a pity that the three brothers of the family ......" The woman covered her hot cheeks and said gloomily, her eyes looking directly at the knight, as if she wanted to see through his heart, "What I said, whether it is crazy or not, you ......know it in your own heart."

Naturally, the knight couldn't really kill her, and he was afraid that she would say more, so he could only lean over and take her over again, trying his best to calm his mind, and almost pleaded in a low voice: "I, Ma Shouying, said that I would give you happiness for a lifetime, and I will do what I say." People have good and bad luck, and the sky has unpredictable storms and clouds. You and I have experienced the retreat and rush many times, why do you have to lose your temper so much this time? ”

When the woman heard this, her nose was sore, and her tears could not be stopped: "You always say better than you sing." But since I followed you, where have I ever had a peaceful life. I finally conceived two children, and I got together with your 'retreat and rush' miscarriage. I was touched by the scene today, today, and suddenly remembered this. You say, who can bear this matter......" I couldn't cry as he spoke.

The embarrassed and sad "old return" Ma Shouying pulled his beloved woman to stand up, looked at the misty mountains at the end of the river, and said: "Hold on for a while, you will reach Dafu Mountain, as long as you enter the mountain, you will no longer have to suffer from the upheaval and displacement." Fu Rou soothed, "I promise you, this time you will go into the mountain, take care of it, and you will not go out of the mountain easily." ”

Lu's tearful eyes, which were red and bulging on his right cheek, wiped the skirt stained with muddy water, but found that the more he wiped it, the more muddy it became, so he cried again.

"There is also an ox cart carrying goods in the rear team, and Madame will be there for the time being, and it will be fine when she enters the mountain." Ma Shouying took Lu's hand and walked back. Along the way, the soldiers returning to the camp were silent and stared at him and his wife, as if at this moment they were all out of their bodies and became arhats in the temple carved clay sculptures.

Ma Shouying commanded several soldiers to unload the goods on the ox cart, helped Lu Shi into the carriage, turned around and inquired about his left and right followers: "I can find out the whereabouts of 'Ge Li Eye'." ”

The left and right relatives shook their heads and said, "Not yet." ”

"It shouldn't be." Ma Shouying frowned, "The leather camp has retreated here from Qizhou, so I should be a lot faster...... Could it be that something happened to him in the 'Grim Eye'? ”

Left and right relatives said: "Maybe Geying is in a hurry and goes to Paradise Village first." ”

Ma Shouying looked back at the quiet ox cart, and said as he walked: "Pass my order, keep going, don't stop until you reach Dafu Mountain!" ”

Since Zhang Xiongfei died tragically in Chengshui, Ma Guangchun rebelled against the official army, and Niu Youyong was captured in the water battle, there are few pillars left in the camp, and there are only less than 1,000 troops left. Ma Shouying, who is nearly 50 years old, rarely has a feeling of loneliness and fear, and has lost confidence in the road ahead. He only felt that with his own mental strength, it was difficult for him to take on the role of the leader again. On the way here from the water village of Jiujiang Prefecture, he was thinking that when he returned to the mountains to recuperate for a while, it would be better to go north to join the thriving army like Luo Rucai. Therefore, the promise to the Lu family, "This time I will go into the mountains and raise it well", is not a lie made up temporarily.

The languishing ranks moved again under the urging orders of the returning officers. Ma Shouying found that the morale of the whole army seemed to be low at any time of the faux pas, and the reason for this can only be explained by the higher the expectations and the greater the disappointment.

Returning to the camp with great effort, lobbying the water thieves on both sides of the river to join, and planning this battle of land and water for more than half a month, I expected to defeat the official army of Wuchang Mansion and reverse the unfavorable decline in one fell swoop, but the final result was very frustrating. It's understandable that morale is sluggish.

Fortunately, Ma Shouying can be regarded as an expert in the face of this situation, and his morale is low, but he does not provoke it in his eyes, so as not to provoke resentment. When there is no threat from the official army in the mountains, he will begin to purge dissidents and redistribute power, co-opt some of the elders who are worth wooing, and consolidate his leadership position. Then he chose the opportunity to announce that he would go north to join the promising army, giving his subordinates new hope and new hope. Ma Shouying believes that as long as this series of punches is brought down, he still has a good chance of making a comeback.

Seeing that he was approaching the foot of Dafu Mountain, Ma Shouying, who was in front of him, slowly let go of his hanging heart. At this time, the horse from behind rushed to report: "He Dazhang is here!" ”

"He's coming?" Ma Shouying was stunned, He Yilong, who was expected to enter the mountain early in the middle of the year, was still behind him. However, he is now eager to win the support of his subordinates, He Yilong has been fighting side by side with him for a long time, and he is like a brother, and the sooner he joins him, his identity as the commander of the camp will have an additional guarantee.

The two soon met. He Yilong, who was wearing a hat, had two big black eyes, and he was younger than Ma Shouying, but he saw a lot of vicissitudes. Similar to Ma Shouying, his face was dull, and he was tired and depressed.

Ma Shouying saw that there were still more than ten horsemen behind him, so he asked: "Brother, how did you get from this trip to Qizhou?" ”

He Yilong's voice was hoarse, and he smiled bitterly: "What's the gain?" It's good if you don't leave your life behind. ”

"These more than ten horsemen look strong and strong, not like the people in the brothers' camp. Isn't it just a brother who has just co-opted it? ”

Returning to the camp was originally known for many horses, but it was only in the period of Chu Yu, after coming to the Ying, Huoshan Mountains, repeatedly defeated and killed, and to the mountain people sneak attack and kill, the camp of the horse army lost eight or nine ten, the only left, also many old and weak horses. The return camp is strong, the leather camp is weak, and He Yilong's men have fewer war horses, but now the more than ten horsemen who come with him are all fierce and fierce, just looking at the momentum, it is not the old department of the leather camp.

"I have a friend to introduce to my brother......" He Yilong smiled and gave the knights behind him a look.

Ma Shouying's first reaction was that He Yilong contacted other liukou, and his heart was half happy and half nervous. Rejoice in the fact that if the other party can be used for his own use, then it will be of great help to the stability of his position; Nervous that if the other party is arrogant and rude, or even has the ambition of occupying the magpie's nest, then I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble in the future.

"Ma Da is in charge of the plate, and he has been looking up for a long time." A young knight in the rear team, riding a tall horse and bright armor, approached the horse.

"Dare to love Your Excellency." Ma Shouying hugged his fists.

When the young knight heard this, he smiled lightly and said, "In Xia Zhao. ”

As soon as he heard "Zhao Dangshi", Ma Shouying almost fell off his horse, looking back, He Yilong had long since disappeared, and instead of more than ten horsemen, he was forced to come up and surrounded him in the center.

"Recommended by He Dazhang's plate, I am fortunate to see the true face of 'Lao Huihui'."

Ma Shouying clutched the reins with both hands and said in a trembling voice: "You, are you really Zhao, Zhao Dangshi?" ”

Zhao Dangshi said with a smile: "It's true. He added, "A few years ago, Zhao also served in Huiying. ”

Contacting He Yilong, who had strange whereabouts, Ma Shouying shook his head vigorously to confirm that he was not dreaming, and stabilized his mind and said, "He Yilong has already descended?" ”

"He Dazhang is a sensible person."

Zhao ...... Mr. Zhao. Where are your soldiers? Ma Shouying peeked around, except for his own stunned soldiers who did not know the situation, the wind was gentle in the four fields, the mountains and forests were silent, and there was no sign of wanting to fight.

"If Ma Da is also sensible, Zhao will have no soldiers." Zhao Dangshi said indifferently, Chengzhu's posture in his chest was daunting, "The matter has come to this point, there is no need for Zhao to say more, Ma Dazhang should know how to do it." ”

Ma Shouying glanced at the Dafu Mountain close at hand, and said angrily: "Zhao Dangshi, I am the person who broke the king, you hurt me, and the king will not give up with you!" ”

Zhao Dangshi said: "Chuang Wang, Zhao has his own share." But there is one thing that Ma Dazhang has to know. ”

"What's the matter?" Ma Shouying refused to let go of even a clue in Zhao Dangshi's mouth, even if these clues might not bring him a chance to escape. But at this moment, for him, every time he said a word, he seemed to be able to covet a little more freedom that was about to become a luxury.

"Zhao will not harm Ma Dazhang, but in northern Chu, some people have some things, and they still need Ma Dazhang to go with Zhao."

Ma Shouying was at a loss, and in the ox cart not far away, a woman's voice came: "Husband, is something wrong?" The voice was weak and mournful, and there was a crying tone.

"It's okay......" Ma Shouying stared at the ox cart, as if talking to himself, and tears from the corners of his eyes flowed down his cheeks at the same time.
