Chapter 1269: Dongjiawu in the depths of the mountain
Gangster Mountain, Maple Grove Valley.
Between a dense maple tree, there is a dotted dwelling, a large number of terraced fields have been reclaimed in the mountains, planted with millet valleys, and in the rear of this terraced field, is a radius of several miles, built by the mountain wooden village, this is a typical dock fort, can be seen everywhere in the Central Plains, in the troubled times, the people have left the towns on the plain that are vulnerable to attack, and hide in these mountain dock forts, gathering people to protect themselves, which is also a major feature of this era.
Liu Yu has a dragon slashing knife on his back, a thunder bow in his hand, a steel chain mail tightly attached to his body, a guard beam on his helmet, tightly attached to his high nose bridge, so that the two eyes on both sides are even more like electricity, at this time he is standing alone in front of this tall dock fort, the gate of the village is closed, above the wall, there are already hundreds of Zhuang Ding armed guards, a leader looks, Kong Wu is powerful, the black-faced man in his twenties said loudly: "There is nothing you want here, leave quickly!" ”
Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "Fellow countryman, you can see clearly, we are not horse thieves and robbers, we are the officials and soldiers of the Great Jin, and we are here to save you." ”
The man was a little surprised, carefully looked at Liu Yu, and the more than three hundred people behind him, and shook his head: "I don't care if you are a Jin army or a horse thief, you are not welcome here, do you see this sign?" ”
He pointed to a wooden sign standing in front of the ditch outside the village, on which were written the four big characters "Do not enter the history of the thorn", and wrote them again in Chinese characters and crooked Hu Wen.
Liu Yu nodded and said in a loud voice: "This good man, I don't know what you call here?" ”
The man proudly pointed to his chest: "I, I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, Dong Shenhu is also in Gangshan Mountain, this place was originally called Fenglin Valley, and now it is called Dongjiawu, which is a place where we gather people to protect the people in troubled times." Seeing that you are reasonable, I don't want to fight with you, so I should leave early. ”
Liu Yu shook his head: "Dong Shenhu, is it up to you here?" ”
Dong Shenhu was slightly stunned, and then said angrily: "What does this have to do with you?" ”
Liu Yu smiled: "I can go, but the thousands of lives in your village may be in danger, so you'd better find someone who can call the shots, I have something important to discuss with him, and besides, your time is running out." ”
Dong Shenhu's brows furrowed, and he was about to speak, but an old voice sounded behind him: "Old man Dong Lei, is the owner of the village here, I don't know what advice this military master has?" ”
With these words, an old man with gray hair and early fifties walked out, his face was dignified, full of red light, revealing a majesty, and Dong Shenhu saw him, and hurriedly bowed his head and saluted: "Dad." ”
And the Zhuang Ding on the village saluted in unison and said, "I've seen the old man." ”
By Liu Yu's side, Tan Daoji said in a low voice: "Brother Jinu, this person is very popular, it seems that he is not only the owner of a village here." ”
Liu Yu smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "I found out before I came, Dong Lei is the chief scoop of more than 300 nearby stockades, and it can be said that he is the leader of the Dock Fort Alliance, so I came to him directly." ”
Speaking of this, Liu Yu raised his head and said loudly to Dong Lei: "Master Dong Zhai, your name, I have already heard it, and they all say that you are anxious for justice and righteousness, righteousness is thin and cloudy, these ten miles and eight townships, no one is unconvinced, I Liu Yu is a person from Jingkou in Yangzhou, I first came to this Luoyang City, I wanted to visit in a few days, but the incident happened suddenly, and the military situation was like fire, so I can only bring my brothers to see in this way, not to have any unfavorable actions to Guizhai, please don't misunderstand." ”
Dong Lei's face changed: "You said your name is Liu Yu?" People from Kyoguchi? But that Liu Yu of the Beifu Army? ”
Liu Yu nodded: "It's just a mere down, it's just a vain name, not to mention, it's not good to compare with Old Man Dong, however, there is a matter now, very serious, according to our reliable intelligence, the Xiyan army has crossed the Yellow River and rushed straight to Luoyang, they will burn down and attack the villages along the way, and you are here, it is the only way for them to go to Luoyang, I came this time on the order of General Zhu Xu, and came to ask you to gather the nearby villagers and evacuate to Luoyang for refuge together." This is General Zhu's official document. ”
As he spoke, he took out an official letter from his arms, tied it to the arrow, removed the arrow, wound the arrow, and shot an arrow, and the arrow without the arrow was directly nailed to the wooden board of the wall in front of Dong Lei, still shaking from the tail string, and the power of this arrow shocked all Ding Zhuang in the village with wide eyes, opened his mouth wide, and stared at Liu Yu incredibly, as if he had seen a flying immortal outside the sky, even Dong Shenhu, who was coaxing just now, also changed his face greatly, and his madness was gone.
Dong Lei's face flashed with surprise, stepped forward and pulled out the arrow, took the official letter in his hand and looked at it quickly, and then said: "Liu Junye, Zhu Tingshi's kindness, Dong Mou's heart, it's just that we people in the mountains and wilderness are used to being idle, and they are unwilling to be constrained by the officials, besides, after the Northern Expedition of the Great Jin Dynasty recovered the Central Plains over the years, the officials and soldiers of Wang Shi basically never came to us, and the horse thieves and bandits came in waves, all of which we dealt with ourselves, and if we could fight, we would fight, and if we couldn't fight, we would withdraw, nothing, I don't think it would be any different this time." A few days ago, didn't Fu Pi, the former Qin Emperor of Na Bingzhou, also pass near us? As soon as we close the gate like now, isn't he helpless but to retreat? ”
Liu Yu sighed and said: "Fu Pi was defeated by Murong Yong of Xiyan, and if he wants to flee to Bashu and Guanzhong, he will pass through here, he is the general of the defeated army, he wants to flee for his life instead of plundering, so he will naturally not stay longer, but the Xiyan army is different, the owner of Dong Zhai should have heard of it, these Xianbei thieves are ferocious and vicious, and they are like locusts everywhere they pass. For the purpose of their war is to kill and rob, unlike all the thieves and horse bandits you have seen. ”
Dong Shenhu sneered: "The soldiers are coming, the water is flooding, there are more than 1,000 men in our village, there are many who have been soldiers and fought before, and they can summon the neighboring villages within a hundred miles to rescue, even if the Xiyan army wants to break through our Dongjia Village, it is not so easy." ”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Dong Zhuangshi, dare to ask you, how is this Dong Jiazhai compared to Fu Jian's Chang'an City?" Which of these men who have served as soldiers of yours is stronger than the Imperial Forest Army of the former Qin? Having faith is a good thing, but if it is arrogant, it is another matter, not only will it harm you, but also all the people in the village, can you bear this responsibility? ”
