Chapter Seventy-Four: Those who dare to escape from prison are good soldiers
If there are human beings, there will be wars, and if there are wars, there will be prisoners, which no one can avoid, and when the tiger still falls into Pingyang, no matter how brave the warrior is, he will inevitably be tripped and fallen to the ground, captured alive!
More than 20,000 prisoners of the Xiliang Army were all imprisoned next to the Xuanjia Army camp, these people put down their weapons, took off their armor, and only had one piece of clothing left on their bodies, like a group of sheep were locked up here, and the surrounding wooden fence was the sheepfold where they were held, and the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army who held sharp blades in their hands and patrolled day and night were shepherds!
Xiao Yi did not abuse them, the injured were treated, because those who died of serious injuries would also be buried alive, two porridges a day, although they could not eat enough, they did not have to worry about starving to death, this was definitely a kind approach, and the other princes often executed those prisoners by starvation; And Xiao Yat just wanted to keep them in a state of semi-starvation, so as to prevent them from having physical riots, once the prisoners of war bombed the camp, there was no other way but to kill them all; So not letting them eat is also a kind of love!
Many princes are fighting the idea of these captives, compared to the peasant soldiers under them who can only plough the fields and not cut people, these Xiliang prisoners of war are all elite soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles, they are good at riding and shooting, and the skills of cutting people are even more first-class. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a good opportunity!
First of all, Yuan Shao proposed as the leader of the alliance, hoping to hand over these captives to his care, but he was forcibly pushed back by Xiao Yi, and I didn't see how you contributed when I was fighting, and now you have come out to grab the fruit, why?
In the face of Xiao Yi's tough attitude, Yuan Shao did not dare to use force even though he was the leader of the alliance, in case he angered this killing god, it would not be fun, so he had no choice but to retreat fiercely, and drew a big black circle for Xiao Yi in the small ledger in his heart. ¤八¤八¤Read¤Book,.☆.←o
As soon as the princes saw that the pressure was not good, they immediately changed their strategy, this time by the state assassin Shi Zhang Yang came forward, and directly asked Xiao Yi to hand over these prisoners in the form of a military order, which was jointly managed by the princes, and the top boss had an order, and it was not appropriate to resist strongly, although there are continuous internal estrangements now, but after all, it is not completely torn apart, but you have a good plan, I have a wall ladder, Xiao Yi played a procrastination trick very scoundrelly, and pressed the military order document to the bottom of the bookcase, and the messenger pinched his nose and threw it directly to the back camp after being drunk with spirits; It's okay to hand it over, but not now.
What we have to do now is to pick out the most elite, strongest, and smartest people from these more than 20,000 people, and supplement them into their own Xuanjia army, the conditions are a bit harsh, and the time is even more limited, more than 20,000 people consume a huge amount of food and grass every day, Xiao Yi can't keep them for a long time, so you must pick out the person you want in the shortest time, how to choose, it depends on Xiao Yi's ability!
"Xiaobin, go and call the captains of each battalion to my back tent, remember to be quiet, don't alarm anyone, tonight I will lay down a net to see how many big fish I can catch!" Xiao Yi touched his chin, obviously starting to think again.
"No!" Xiaobin's greatest strength is to obey orders and never ask why, so he is the best personal soldier, but because of this, he can only be a personal soldier!
Since it is a secret order, it is necessary to act cautiously, only to see the figures in the Xuanjia Army shaking everywhere, and the captains of each battalion have disappeared under various pretexts, and then gradually converge into the back tent, here, Xiao Yi has laid a net of heaven and earth, just waiting for them to carry it out, this time, it is not only to catch fish, but also to train soldiers, the opportunity is rare!

The life of a captive is two things, eating and sleeping; Then lying in the corner of the captive camp watching the sun rise and the moon set, and then telling himself that after another day, no one knows what the fate of the future will be, and whether he will be assigned to do coolies? Will the Kwantung Coalition kill them?
There is such a thing as "killing and surrendering" since ancient times, the famous general Bai Qi, the overlord Xiang Yu, is famous for killing and surrendering, they did not do less when they were in Xiliang, all the Qiang captives captured by Dong Zhuo often have only one end, buried alive; panic and anxiety are always entangled in their hearts, this is a group of hopeless people!
If you want hope, you have to find it yourself!
At sunset, the boring day finally passed, and the prisoner camp fell into silence, most of them chose to go down in a muddy way, and they would die sooner or later when they became soldiers, but some people were different, although they were also lying in the crowd, they kept their eyes open and observed the movements around them, and they were full of eyes eager for freedom!
Not everyone is willing to be a prisoner, the tiger prison is closed in that kind of situation, there is no way forward, there are pursuers behind, except for temporary surrender is really no way out, and people have a strong herd heart, more than 20,000 people have knelt down and prayed for surrender, in that case, even the hard knees have to bend down, the body surrender is not shameful, as long as your heart still yearns for freedom, then people are free!
Yan Ming was one of them, he hid in a corner with good sight and ventilation, and then the faint moonlight gently counted the number of people on the patrol, and every time he remembered a number, he put a stone on the ground, and every hour passed, he put a branch on the stone, and soon, a complete sketch of the patrol on duty appeared in his hand, although it was a little rough, but it was enough for prison escape!
"The patrols are very frequent, but they are not without loopholes, the tiger prison is locked in the west, if you run anywhere, it is estimated that it will be ......, but if I turn to the north, there will be a dark light...... Hehe! In the middle of the ring, Yan Ming finally came up with a good escape plan, thinking that he would soon be free, he laughed happily, but the people around him were startled, and they all crawled away from him......
It turned out that Yan Ming was born with an ugly appearance, a sallow complexion like earth, a flat nose and a wide mouth, a pair of fangs protruding from the lips, especially his eyes, other people's pupils are black, and his is red, coupled with that ugly appearance, he looks like a demon!
This ghost looks, even during the day, it will be scary, not to mention that in the middle of the night, laughing is ugly than a ghost crying, no wonder the surrounding Xiliang soldiers are hiding from him, who is not afraid when he sees it!
In this regard, Yan Ming just pouted, he was used to it; Because of this inhuman and ghostly appearance, he has been bullied since he was a child, and he is often beaten all over his body by the naughty boys in the village, but he has never succumbed to his stubbornness, that is, he is at an absolute disadvantage, he will also fight to the death, and his parents deliberately moved to live away from the crowd in order for him not to be discriminated against.
When he grew up, Yan Mingzi inherited his father's business, became a fisherman, and fished by the Weishui River every day for a living, although he was hard, but he was also at ease, but people still bullied him, calling him an ugly ghost all day long, and said that he was a mongrel born from his mother to seduce foreigners, so he would have a pair of ghost eyes, insulting his parents, Yan Ming, who was the son of man, finally couldn't bear it, and in a fit of anger, he killed thirteen people with a harpoon in his hand, and then left his hometown and threw himself into the army of Dong Zhuo, who was stabbed in Xiliang, and lived a life of licking blood with a knife, I want to use my rotten life to fight for a future.
As a result, after coming to Luoyang, the first battle he participated in was the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass, unfortunately, he was captured, and the one who wore ' The man of Chiyou Ghost Face stood in front of the formation like a demon god, under that kind of coercion, no one could straighten his knees, so he, like the rest of the more than 20,000 brothers, chose to kneel and surrender, but Yan Ming didn't want to be a prisoner, he longed for freedom, he has been planning an escape plan for the past few days, and trying to contact several accomplices who have the same thoughts, but unfortunately, no one wants to pay attention to him, even if he runs away, he doesn't take him to play, such a life......
There are many people who want to escape like Yan Ming, and dozens of people have tried, but unfortunately, none of them succeeded, and after being captured, they all showed their heads in public, and the bloody heads of the forest shocked the vast majority of the captive soldiers, which is also the first test set by Xiao Yi, only those who are not afraid of death dare to continue to escape, and what he wants is a soldier who is not afraid of death!
"Da Da Da! ......" horses' hooves sounded, and in the middle of the night, outside the prisoner camp, the cavalry of the Xuanjia Army were patrolling; They are a team of every fifty people, every ten teams are a group, they are divided into two groups, and they will alternate at midnight, which is also the only loophole in defense, and only smart people can seize this loophole, which is also deliberately arranged by Xiao Yi, in addition to being not afraid of death, a good soldier must also be smart!
After the Xuanjia Army, Xiao Yi sat here in casual clothes and drank slowly, the fishing net had been opened, just to see how many fish would crash into it, I hope it would not be too little, then it would be in vain to waste his efforts, but not too much, too many fish, and there would be problems if they couldn't digest it.
"Your Excellency, the fish are starting to run away!" Xiao Bin trotted in from outside the tent, his face full of admiration.
"Very well, give them half an hour, see how far these fish can run, and after half an hour, blow the trumpet and close the net!" Drinking the liquor in the dry bowl in one gulp, Xiao Yi's eyes were full of excitement.
"No! ……
