The bandits came with a slaughter, immense, like a rolling flood, and everywhere they passed, the forest vegetation was not spared, either breaking their waists or drowning in the torrent, but there were some exceptions, their tall and straight torsos passed through the flood-soaked flood zone, and the turbulent water could not corrode the strong will of their mighty heart in the slightest. Deeply rooted in the ground, the last trace of faith is also the indelible rising sun, facing the sun, facing the future, constantly absorbing nutrients, and laying a solid foundation for the glow of this moment and the earth-shattering responsibility.

"Everyone, kill me, and leave no one behind."

A tall figure, full of cheeks and beards, a deep scar on the face, although there is a thick scar, but it is not difficult to see that this scar is not only left through the flesh, it may have penetrated deep into the cheek bones, so that the scar is wheat-colored, with a hint of charm that affects the surrounding muscle contours, and the folds of the tight skin linked to the position of the scar are like the scene of streams converging into the river, if it is not treated in time, maybe the scar has corroded the whole face. Reminiscent of the ruthlessness of the attacker, the knife of the attack must have been smeared with some poison that destroys humanity.

The scar man said in a commanding tone to his soldiers.

Although they are bandits, they are not like ordinary bandits at all, they are well-trained people at first glance, and the means of killing people are even more terrifying, if you see them, it is normal for your heart to ripple.

Just as a group of bandits were coming, a soldier ran up to Lin Maolin and said, "Report to General Lin, the enemy has attacked, and many of our brothers have died." ”

Lin Maolin said: "Go down, I know." ”

The soldier retreated, leaving Lin Maolin and a group of brothers, with sad faces, Gong Yuqi and the others were all like beasts that had lost their reason, clamoring to avenge Xiao Qi and the dead brothers, especially Gong Yuqi himself, after he knew that Xiao Qi was killed, he cried the most heartbroken, so many years of comradeship, or grew up together, and went out of the village together, all kinds of feelings are only the most clear to the parties, although ordinary people can also feel the feelings hidden deep in their bones, But there are subtle connections that not everyone can relate.

"Bring me a long knife, my brother, brother will avenge you."

Gong Yuqi seemed to be panicking, perhaps because of his rising emotions, which made him forget the weapon he had thrown aside, and his blurred and bloody eyes, although he was looking for a weapon, could also be said to be looking for feelings.

The other soldiers who followed him saw the general like this, only to see Xiao San tidy up his haggardness, wipe his nose and tears, and the long knife behind his back was tightly fastened on his back, and even when he walked, he could feel the residual warmth that rose after the cold weapon collided with his flesh and bones.

Lin Maolin didn't have a weapon beside him, he took a marching map and observed it carefully, glanced at the situation here through his afterglow, looked at Gong Yuqi and the others, and not only sighed.

Finally, he came up and ordered: "Everyone is not arguing, and the top priority now is how to protect oneself, not revenge, do you understand the noisy and shouting."

What kind of system, everyone listen, retreat, I will bring people to cover you, especially Gong Yuqi and the five of you, Sun Fan may be waiting for you in front, you are so self-defeating, the blood fight is just a reckless behavior, not a criticism of the reckless man's behavior, but what I want to say is, have you ever thought about it, the charge is cool for a while, and a burst of hair fever may be a permanent regret, this strategy is not what we should consider now, we should first consider how to live, I promise you, the counterattack will inevitably make the enemy pay the price of blood. ”

Everyone looked at Lin Maolin in disbelief, Gong Yuqi and the others heard Lin Maolin's words, but they still couldn't calm the anger in their hearts, Xiao Qi was the first to stand up and said: "Soldiers, we are all soldiers of Sanjiang, the defenders of the Central Plains, today the enemy makes us taste the pain of losing our brothers, tomorrow we will make the enemy pay the same price, soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, take the country's righteousness as their goal, and save the people from fire and water as their responsibility." I agree with General Lin's instructions. ”

All of a sudden, all the soldiers stood up, and the voice in the sky sounded, "Today's hatred and tomorrow's daily report, there will be a cause and an effect, and the wicked will have evil retribution." ”

Gong Yuqi calmed down a little under the support of the two brothers, Lin Maolin took the map and made a positive gesture to him, Gong Yuqi stepped forward, took out a dagger from his waist, held the dagger in his right hand, looked up to the sky and roared, and said: "Brothers, today's enemy will turn into this dagger, we will use this dagger to cut the skin, let us remember this moment forever." ”

As he spoke, the other soldiers who asked you to survive all raised the daggers in their hands, and followed Gong Yuqi to stab them heavily on the arm, blood flowed down the dagger, dripping into their hearts, the scars devoured anger, sobered up their senses, and everyone was full of fighting spirit.

General Lin saw the soldiers below like this, and finally took a long breath, the muscles on his face calmed down a lot, took the map, and said: "You first follow the hill west along the river to spread the army, there will be a wharf about eight hundred miles or so, there must be ships and government troops at the wharf, as long as they get there, the bandits will not dare to approach, as for Sun Fan and others, let's wait for us to be safe." Withdraw first, and the other three hundred archers will follow me to stop the enemy. ”

The soldiers brought out by Lin Maolin personally are all people who live and die with him, each of them has chivalrous courage, has never succumbed in the face of hardships, and is even more courageous in the face of national justice, a row of soldiers scrambled to say: "General Lin, take us, we can bear this arduous burden." ”

Lin Maolin looked at each other, smiled faintly, and said: "Thank you brothers for your support, it's just that I have already been selected, you follow Gong Yuqi, remember to keep yourself, in order to protect your comrades-in-arms." ”

A platoon of soldiers watched General Lin ride on a tall horse, followed by three hundred soldiers, and marched towards the bandits.

The spear was tucked behind him, the bow and arrow were carried on his back, and the shoulders were not very broad but not crowded, but a little more methodical and natural harmony.

Clearing his throat and looking at the soldiers behind him, Lin Maolin opened his mouth and said, "Brothers, do you regret following me Lin Maolin, this time it may be nine deaths, maybe they are not bandits, maybe."

Say not ordinary bandits. ”

As soon as the words fell, the sonorous and powerful voices of a group of soldiers came from behind him, "General Lin, it is our honor to fight with you, and we have no regrets." ”

The voice stopped, and a soldier beside Lin Maolin said excitedly: "General Lin will always be our idol, and I once thought that it would be good if one day I could be as powerful as General Lin in the future, so that I could protect my relatives, and I wouldn't watch them die tragically under the butcher's knife of the bandits." As he spoke, tears welled up in the soldier's eyes. Sparsely soaked his eyes, his hands kept wiping his tears, Lin Maolin comforted: "The festival mourns and changes, the bandits are suddenly hateful, the dead are great, life is the best elegy for the dead, they don't want us to live in pain like this, isn't it that if you are not happy to live, your family may be miserable under Jiuquan." ”

The soldier heard General Lin's condolences, cleaned up his mood, and said ashamedly: "Let General Lin laugh, let all the brothers laugh, this story was originally only known to me, and I rarely tell it to others, and no one wants to hear it, but now in front of everyone, I told this deeply hidden secret, and everyone can listen to it, I feel happy, because you are here, I believe that everything will be fine." ”

All the soldiers on the field cast comforting glances, and there was heat, sympathy, pity, and empathy in their eyes.

When Lin Maolin himself was three years old, a fire in the Lin family burned not only a family, but also the innocence of the Lin family, what committed suicide in fear of crime, what gold and silver evidence of corruption was found from the Lin family, what collusion with bandits, etc., these trumped-up charges were imposed on such an innocent family, which is the most shameful and the most scorned by Lin Maolin.

After calming down their emotions, everyone looked into the distance, looking at one or two brothers, throwing away their armor and running, behind them were seven or eight pursuers, fierce and vicious, and the bloody aura slashed down the butcher's knife, maybe this is the filthy breath that only outlaws have.

Lin Maolin looked at the soldiers running in the distance, stretched out his hand and gestured to his brothers, and said, "Pay attention to concealment, spread out on both sides, and put on your weapons." ”

More than 300 people filled the hill at once, shuttled through the jungle to the top of the mound, and some crossed the den of poisonous snakes, crossed the body of scorpions, and passed by the man-eating flowers.

Hardships and dangers can block a person's body but not a person's heart, they think they are the most powerful warriors, with this layer of spiritual security, difficulties can not be called difficulties, at most they can only be said to be small setbacks.

After Lin Maolin saw that everyone was ready, there was an extra shackle in his heart, which locked up self-confidence and responsibility.

Leng Yue on the side asked Lin Maolin and said, "Do we want to go down to save them?"

Lin Maolin said lightly: "No, it depends on their own creation, if they are smart enough, they should know where to run to survive, but if they don't know, even if we go down, we can't save them." ”

Leng Yue Chasing Wind understood it, so he didn't ask more, but prayed for them silently.
