Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Red Mountain Mine
In the early morning of the fourth day, the sound of drums resounded throughout the Fushui camp, and the people in the camp quickly gathered when they heard the sound of gongs and drums. In the past three days, the Li people have received some "special training" to a greater or lesser extent, and the special care of the Li people in Hals has not yielded, and all the Li people are relieved at today's rallying meeting, and the training camp has finally ended.
Hals choked the direction in which the Li team was standing, and snorted secretly, thinking that this was the end, the game had just begun, and it was normal to die a few people on the battlefield.
These three days of intensive training have made it impossible for the combat strength of the clan alliance to reach a higher level, so in the past three days, the main content of the training has been formation, identification instructions and basic physical training. In Lin Tian's opinion, although the Yiren were born warriors, they were not qualified soldiers, and the more than 10,000 allied troops in this frustrated camp were simply a rabble, maybe they were just used to fill up.
After assembling the group, Hals led the team to the south gate of the city. At the gate of the south city, Bai Li's personal guards have been assembled, and the members of Bai Yan's personal guards are mainly from Bai Yan's clan and the big clans of his cronies, and their loyalty is very high, so Bai Yan has put a lot of money on them, just look at the leather armor and weapons on their bodies.
At the swearing-in mobilization meeting, after Bai Yan finished a series of work such as sacrificing to the heavens and ancestors, Bai Yan began to draw a big cake for everyone, saying that all ethnic groups would have the opportunity to enter the Hongshan Mine to get huge benefits, so the morale of the coalition army was greatly shaken.
"Let's go."
Bai Yan drew his sword and shouted.
The mighty coalition army set out, with 10,000 Bai Yan guards and 15,000 allied troops of all ethnic groups.
"It is said that 10,000 guards have been stationed in the Red Mountain Mine, and the big leader is clearly going to fight Wuheng!"
"This is already the strongest strength of our ghost side, right?"
"Haha, I seem to have seen Wuheng's countless treasures."
Along the way, the coalition forces talked a lot, and everyone saw such a large team, and they all spoke loudly.
In the tent of the leader of Wuheng Heng, Wu Yao came with a piece of information.
"Grandpa, according to the report from the spies, the ghost party sent another 25,000 people to the Hongshan mine today."
"Bai Yan is trying to work hard, I don't know how many Soto will come! How many soldiers are we recruiting now? ”
"After the recruitment order was issued these days, there are more than 8,400 people who have come to report so far, and our strength is less than 30,000 with the standing army."
"Thirty thousand, it's enough to defend the city,
Has the evacuation order been issued? ”
"Down, the clans from Wuheng City to the Ghost Fang have withdrawn to the southern territory one after another."
"Then let's meet the storm!"
Wu Heng learned that the ghost side was coming violently, and now Soto's situation was unknown, so he contracted all his strength to deal with the danger he was about to face in Wuheng City.
In the evening, Bai Yi led the army to the Hongshan Mine and came to the camp tent, "What is the movement on the Wuheng side?" ”
The man in uniform under the hall replied: "Tell the big leader, Wuheng has evacuated everyone to the south, and all the troops have basically taken refuge in Wuheng City. ”
"Hahaha, Wuheng Lao'er is afraid, I brought the male master here, how can he not be afraid, when we capture Wuheng City, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth."
"What the big leader said is very true, we are enough to set foot in Wuheng City this time, when will we set off, the big leader, I am about to forget the smell of Wuheng people's blood."
"Hahaha, the city wall of Wuheng is high and the city is strong, let's let Soto go up, when will Soto arrive in Wuheng City?"
"Great Chief, Soto Fang said that he will arrive in Wuheng City in 5 days."
"Hmph, Zaga is procrastinating, if you don't need him, why bother sharing him, the opportunity is in front of you, don't seize it. We rested in Hongshan for three days, and after three days, we pushed horizontally to the city of Wuheng. ”
"Yes."
When Lin Tian first saw the Red Mountain, he was shocked, the Red Mountain traversed the east and west, stretching for hundreds of miles. How big is the iron mine under the Red Mountain, the Red Mountain is simply a gold mountain. Lin Tian suddenly wanted to see the scale of the Red Mountain Mine, so he asked the patriarch to take him into the Red Mountain Mine to have a look.
"Xiaotian, the above stipulates that we are not allowed to walk out of this camp at will, I'm afraid this will not work."
After Lin Tian found the patriarch to explain his intentions, the patriarch was in trouble, "I heard that this camp is used to defend the Hongshan Mine, and we have an excuse to protect the mine, and the hole in the mine is not far from the camp, let's just go in and take a few looks, and we will come back soon." ”
The patriarch was also curious about whether the Red Mountain Mine was really as huge as the legend, and the two curious cats approached the mine step by step. "Stop, who are you, the mine is heavy, and you must not approach." Lin Tian and the patriarch were stopped by the guards at the entrance of the cave, and the guards pointed at Lin Tian and them with weapons menacingly.
"Don't get me wrong, our own people, we are from the camp next to us, and we are here to protect the mine." Lin Tian explained to the guards while whispering to the patriarch to take out the iron plate of the Li clan and hand it to the guards. "You see, we are also ghost people, we are from a small place, and we haven't seen the mine yet, so we want to go in and gain knowledge, and I hope that the two eldest brothers will be accommodating."
"No, it says you can't let outsiders in."
The patriarch handed the guard a string of bear's tooth ornaments on his hand, "We are all from the ghost side, and we are all here to protect the mine, how can we be outsiders?" I also hope that the two of you will be convenient, so that the juniors can satisfy their curiosity, and we will come out soon. ”
"Okay, you guys go in, come out quickly." One of the guards took the ornament and hurriedly put it on his wrist, while the other guard stepped forward to grab it. "Uncle Patriarch, what good things did you give them?"
"Nothing, worthless things, a string of bear's teeth, when you killed a bear when you were young, jewelry made of bear teeth, and after the young people of Yidi killed the beasts, they would make their teeth into ornaments and wear them on their bodies to prove their courage and bravery."
"I didn't expect that the patriarch uncle was so powerful when he was young that he could kill a bear."
The patriarch seemed to have something unspeakable and did not continue the topic.
After entering the Hongshan Mine, Lin Tian walked down from the spiral staircase layer by layer, and it took about 100 meters to reach the surface, and after reaching the ground, there were several mining caves. Lin Tian casually walked into a mine and saw many mining laborers. Lin Tian and the patriarch Basang were dressed in the leather armor of the ghost side, and the people inside did not interrogate them, thinking that they were just ordinary soldiers.
In the mines, the soldiers are only responsible for patrolling, guarding the safety of the mines, and supervising the production of laborers is the responsibility of the promoted petty leaders, who are then responsible for the upper levels, and the management is quite tight.
"Get up for me, still pretending to be dead, pretending to be dead, don't you have to work if you pretend to be dead?" Lin Tian followed the sound to a mine and saw a small leader whipping a laborer. Lin Tian frowned and wanted to step forward to stop him, but the patriarch grabbed Lin Tian in time and shook his head at him.
"Adult, this kid does 2 people a day, it's too tiring during this time, you have pity on him!" An old laborer next to him pleaded with the little leader.
"Pity him, who pity me, what is his dying sister still kept, since he wants to give her food, then he has to pay enough ore, no ore, and he still wants to eat?"
Lin Tian couldn't listen to it anymore, and walked up, "He didn't pay enough ore, you can give him less food, why do you still beat and scold him?" ”
When the little leader heard this, he was shocked, and there were still people in this mine who dared to contradict me, and he turned his head and was about to scold, when he saw a young man dressed as a soldier. In the mines, the soldiers generally have little contact with their supervisors, and each has his own responsibilities, but the small boss still intends to give the soldiers a face, so as not to make too much trouble.
"My lord, let's take care of our own affairs, these people are my people, and I have the right to deal with them."
In the mouth of the small leader, these laborers can be disposed of at will like goods, which makes Lin Tianhuo very big.
"They are all here to work in the mine and contribute to the ghost side, how can you dispose of these people at will?"
"Haha, you're new here, these are our slaves, under my hands, I naturally have the right to dispose of them, as for the clan's laborers, they will naturally not have this kind of treatment, our eastern mines are all slave laborers, this lord is just afraid of going to the wrong place."
"This brother, my junior just came to the mine, I don't know the rules, I'm sorry, I'll take him away."
The patriarch Basang came out to play a round, but Lin Tian was not reconciled. "Even if they are slaves, they are only laborers in charge of production, and if you kill them, they will not increase their production, and if you are injured, they will only reduce their production."
"Xiaotian, don't say it, let's go."
Lin Tian was forcibly dragged away by the patriarch.
The little leader looked back and thought about it, and what he said still made some sense, so he said to the man with his feet: "I tell you, it's useless for you to pretend to be dead, you won't have food if you don't have enough ore, you can do it yourself, right?" The little leader dropped the sentence and walked away.
"Xiaotian, you are too bold, you made a big fuss, how can it end, we are not really the guards inside."
Lin Tian, who came out of the mine, was reminded by the patriarch like this, and Lin Tianhou was afraid.
