Shen Leng quietly approached the trestle, checked the black line knife tied to his back, and then reached out from Chen Ran to ask for a box of crossbow arrows and inserted it into his belt, he pressed down with his right hand to signal not to act rashly, and then leaned towards the trestle alone.

On the trestle bridge, there are two Qiuli soldiers chatting, speaking the Qiuli native language, and I don't know what they are talking about, more than ninety percent of the Qiuli country is a local, and one percent is related to the Chu people who crossed here from the south of the Central Plains, after hundreds of years of marriage and intermarriage with the locals, there is not much difference between them, but from the way they speak can still be judged simply.

The locals are still accustomed to using their language, but the Chu people, or the descendants of the Chu people, use the Central Plains dialect for daily communication.

Shen Leng quietly approached the trestle bridge from the water, poked his head out and looked, the two people were talking face to face, no one paid attention to their feet, he slowly stood up and grabbed one of the people's ankles and pulled them violently, the person couldn't stand and fell forward, and subconsciously pounced on his companion.

Shen Leng caught the pull and went up from the water, and took out a crossbow arrow in his right hand and poked it into the temple of one of them, and slapped the palm of his hand on the exposed part again, and the crossbow arrow was completely submerged in it.

Before the other person could react, he saw the black shadow pressing on him, Shen Leng covered his mouth, and the other hand pulled out a crossbow arrow and stabbed it from the side of the person's neck, and the tip of the arrow pierced out from the other side of the neck, he pressed the two corpses and waited for a few breaths to make sure that the person was dead, and then ran along the trestle to the dock.

At this time, it was already late at night, except for some soldiers on duty, they had already slept deeply, it was an ordinary night for the Qiuli people on the dock, and there would be no difference from the yesterday and the day before yesterday when they had spent it peacefully, who would have thought that a group of Ning people would be so bold and reckless as to directly attack the dock of the official mansion?

Shen Leng quietly approached the room with the light on, stopped at the door with his back against the wall, took off the repeater hanging on his waist and checked it to make sure there was no problem, took a slow breath and stretched out his left hand to knock on the door.

"Who?"

The person who was talking in the room stopped, and someone asked in a dissatisfied tone.

Shen Leng didn't answer, he was still knocking on the door, the footsteps in the room were gradually approaching, the door creaked and was pulled open from the inside, a shirtless soldier scolded and cursed out of his mouth, Shen Leng suddenly flashed from the side, and his left hand instantly pulled out a crossbow arrow from his waist and pierced it from the man's chin, and the crossbow arrow was poured directly into the skull, the man whined in his mouth and subconsciously raised his hand to grab Shen Leng's hand, but Shen Leng had already pushed him back to the room.

There were three other people in the room, one was the captain in charge of the dock, he was drinking, he glanced at his men who were backwards and frowned, suddenly a black shadow flashed out, and the crossbow arrows shot out of the crossbow pierced directly into the eye socket of a soldier, and before the man could shout, the second crossbow arrow shot into his open mouth.

Shen Leng put down one of the soldiers, and the crossbow fired at the other soldier in succession, and the three crossbow arrows hit the man's heart in a zigzag shape.

Captain Qiu Li had reached for the long knife hanging from the wooden wall, and a crossbow arrow flew and nailed his palm to the wall.

Shen Leng walked over quickly, and the moment the captain looked back at him, his fist slammed into the opponent's temple, this punch was like a heavy hammer, and the man fell to the side with a muffled snort, the force was too great, and the hand that was nailed to the wooden wall was pulled out.

Shen Leng pressed his knees down when he fell, and crushed back and forth against Captain Qiu Li's throat a few times, and Captain Qiu Li coughed up a mouthful of blood and gradually lost his vitality.

Shen Leng lifted the oil lamp in the room and shook it to the door a few times, and his people rushed over quickly from the side of the trestle.

The door of a room was gently pried open from the outside, and the sleeping Qiuli people inside were unaware, and there were at least twelve Qiuli soldiers sleeping in this room, snoring like thunder, and the climate of Qiuli was hot, and these soldiers were lying on the bed board with their bare buttocks one by one, and their posture was extremely indecent.

Chen Ran glanced at it in disgust, stretched out his hand and pointed in, and several soldiers behind him immediately pounced in, and it didn't take long for these seekers to be killed in their sleep, and one by one they were covered with their mouths and their necks wiped open.

Sneaking up on the dock was not too difficult, and Shen Leng didn't think it would be unsuccessful from the beginning.

There were about 150 people in the entire dock, and 90% of them were killed in their sleep, and the rest were powerless even if they reacted.

Shen Leng asked his subordinates to collect and change the clothes of the Qiuli soldiers, and dispose of the corpses, there are two warships parked on the other side of the trestle, which are the most common medium-sized warships in the Qiuli Naval Division, Heijiao, which belongs to the relatively old warships, and is gradually being replaced by the now bigger and faster Hunting Cloud in the Qiuli Naval Division, and in fact, the Fubo that the Daning Naval Division has now begun to replace the equipment is strengthened and improved on the basis of Qiuli Hunting Cloud.

No matter how wide the Yage River is, it is also a river, not as good as the sea, so the smaller type of black Jiao is more suitable, and most of the warships retired from the naval division will be distributed to all parts of Qiuli and become the ships used by the local government to inspect the waterways.

Lin Luoyu has been watching from the sidelines, she never thought that war was a simple man's game before, women don't have to be bad at all, as long as women are willing to participate, they won't do as well as men.

But when she got close to the massacre, she realized that the things she was exposed to and the war were completely different concepts.

She watched Daning's soldiers deal with the corpses with expressionless murderous faces, everyone felt that there was nothing worth caring about, but her palms were full of sweat, and she began to regret following Shen Leng to this strange place to see this strange killing.

Shen Leng glanced at her when he passed by, and he was already about to pass over and stopped, because he saw the fear in Lin Luoyu's eyes, this fear was in the eyes of the tea master when he and the tea master went to kill the water bandits for the first time.

At this moment, Shen Leng realized that everyone was not as strong as he appeared.

He took off the kettle and handed it to Lin Luoyu: "If it's to someone else, I might have to explain, first tell him how Qiu Liren slaughtered our people, and then scold Qiu Liren how vicious and vicious they are, so it seems more righteous...... But obviously you don't need this, you just don't get used to such direct killing, the rivers and lakes are too small after all, so in fact, every soldier doesn't have much envy for the happiness and enmity in the so-called rivers and lakes story, don't brag, let the knights come to the battlefield to fight a few times, maybe they want to return to the countryside, let the assassins fight a few times, they may make up their minds to ...... from the good"

Lin Luoyu took the kettle and found that her hands were a little trembling, and she asked Shen Leng, "Are you used to it?" ”

"Not used to it."

Shen Leng replied: "But accept it." ”

He walked forward: "We'll get on the boat in a moment, we have to leave quickly." ”

"Maybe you should give me a more reasonable explanation as you do for others, and I might be more receptive to it."

"No explanation for killings, even war."

Shen Leng had already walked towards the warship, and Lin Luoyu looked at his back in a daze, recalling what he had just said.

The team quickly assembled, and after changing into the military uniform, everyone was a little uncomfortable, the Qiuli people were relatively short, and the soldiers were all tiger-backed ape-waisted men, so there were indeed a few twists, fortunately, most of the people hid in the cabin, and the people who stayed on the deck were shirtless from the appearance of the Qiuli people, and the flaws were a little smaller.

Luckily it's dark night, so don't worry too much.

The two Black Jiao left the dock, loaded with the necessary water, food, and weapons, and headed south along the Jager River.

Shen Leng sat on the deck and closed his eyes to recuperate, from this place to the south to Qiuli Nanjiang at the fastest time to walk four or five days, and finally to cross the wild mountains to the opposite country of Miao, if you are unlucky, you may be shot by the border army of the country of Miao.

"Cha'er said that you never talk to her about the battlefield."

Lin Luoyu sat down beside Shen Leng, still holding Shen Leng's kettle in his hand.

"It's not something that makes her happy."

Shen Leng replied with his eyes closed.

"Why did you join the army?"

Lin Luoyu asked again.

Shen Leng opened his eyes and thought about it carefully, but he didn't know how to answer...... What was his purpose in the military? At first, he joined the army because Mr. Shen wanted him to join the army and he also wanted to kill all the water bandits, but after he arrived at the water division, he found that he also liked this kind of life, as he said to Lin Luoyu before, he was not used to killing on the battlefield, even if the two sides had a clear position, but he accepted it, because this is war.

Want to be a high-ranking official?

Want to be a waiter?

Shen Leng looked up at the night sky: "At the beginning, I wanted to kill all the water bandits on the Nanping River, and then the water bandits were destroyed, and for a while I began to doubt my purpose in joining the army, I didn't tell my husband or tea master...... If I did, they would be worried, they would be afraid that something would be wrong with me, and then I found out something very interesting. ”

Shen Leng looked at Lin Luoyu: "Men have a natural pursuit of things like rank. ”

"Level?"

"Yes."

Shen Leng said in a calm tone: "Even if you sometimes feel bored, the improvement of the level will make you feel a sense of accomplishment." ”

Lin Luoyu was stunned in his heart, and his eyes stared at Shen Leng's eyes: "Do you like this kind of level improvement?" ”

"Sir likes it."

Shen Luoyu's cold answer made Lin Luoyu stunned.

"You're fighting for this?"

"Perhaps."

Shen Leng couldn't figure it out himself, he looked at Lin Luoyu, and suddenly thought of a very interesting analogy: "Let's put it this way, when I was a child, I went to school to study, and my father and mother would tell you that you are not studying for your father and mother but for yourself, I have never read a book, but when I was in Fish Scale Town, I heard the villagers educate their children so much, and say to the children that you study for yourself, which is undeniable, just like joining the army is also for yourself." ”

His eyes brightened, with a little smugness that Lin Luoyu didn't understand: "But, think about it, child, where does the child understand what reading is for his future?" In their opinion, of course, getting a beautiful grade back is for the sake of the father, the father and mother will praise themselves, will go out to show off, and will have a sense of achievement, so the child's sense of achievement with a beautiful grade has little to do with himself, because he thinks that his father and mother will be happy so he has a sense of achievement. ”

"The child came home and said to his father, "Today my husband praised me, and my father and mother went out and said to others, look! Today, my husband praised my children, and they are happy that the children will be happy, and they will be a little proud. ”

Shen Leng leaned there and looked up at the night sky: "So...... I just hope that my husband will be proud when he mentions me...... Look, that's the kid I taught. ”

Or, more simply.

See!

That's my child.
