Zhu Youzhen had experienced this encounter, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to block it in a panic. The girl misunderstood Zhu Youzhen's intentions, thinking that he was going to attack her chest, so she suddenly lowered her head and slammed Zhu Youzhen's chest, almost pushing Zhu Youzhen with a chair on all fours. Immediately afterwards, she bumped and bit Zhu Youzhen, and cursed desperately in a language that Zhu Youzhen couldn't understand.
"Bold Jurchen mother-in-law!" Mao Wenlong sank his face and said, "Come on, cut her for this soldier!" ā
Before the words fell, Mao Chenglu took a step forward, grabbed the girl's hair with his left hand, and with a flash of cold light in his right hand, the steel knife fell to her neck.
"Wait!" Zhu Youzhen blurted out subconsciously.
At this time, Mao Chenglu's blade had touched the girl's neck, and the audience was silent, only the girl's rapid breathing was heard.
"What, is the Taoist chief pitying the fragrance and cherishing the jade?" Mao Wenlong asked teasingly, "But she is just a Jurchen woman, she doesn't know how to be polite, and she is very fierce, what is there to pity?" How many Han women did Jianyu rape silver kill, and did they ever show mercy? ā
Zhu Youzhen was so stunned by Mao Wenlong's question that he couldn't answer for a long time. Yes, whether in public or private, Zhu Youzhen and Houjin have a common hatred; And then Jin is composed of Jurchens, this girl is also a Jurchen, even if he will not insult her, but kill her to avenge the millions of Han people who died, shouldn't it?
After a short but fierce ideological struggle, Zhu Youzhen's reason still overwhelmed the anger of revenge. Yes, the Jurchens killed a lot of Han Chinese; But there is a debtor and a debtor, and the bane is on the Jurchen nobles led by Nurhachi, at most all the soldiers of the Eight Banners. This Jurchen girl has never killed anyone or done evil, so why did she count the blood debt on the head of a weak woman? If you really want to do this, won't you become a mischievous and foolish worm?
Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen had already made up his mind to save this poor Jurchen girl. However, looking at the posture in front of him, if he wants to intercede for her directly, Mao Wenlong and others will never agree. Zhu Youzhen had no choice but to turn his heart sideways, and pretended to smile embarrassedly: "What, Lord General Soldier, poor Dao... Poor Dao likes this..."
"Hahahaha!" Mao Wenlong laughed wildly, "I didn't expect that the Dao Leader and this soldier have the same hobbies!" But be careful, this little wild horse has a very strong temperament, don't let her hurt you! ā
As he spoke, he asked Mao Chenglu to escort the girl back and stuff it back into Zhu Youzhen's arms. This time, the girl was pointed to by Mao Chenglu, and she couldn't exert half of her strength, so she had to stare at Zhu Youzhen fiercely, but her eyes were already full of tears.
There was suddenly an unknown ** girl in her arms, and Zhu Youzhen also felt tight, her throat was dry, and she didn't even know where to put her hands and feet. Seeing this, Mao Wenlong smiled and said, "What's the matter, the Taoist is still a little unable to let go?" When you come to this island, just have fun and don't take care of the rules! ā
With a wave of his hand, he interrupted the competition for a short time and continued. Not long after, those ** women were divided up by the Dongjiang soldiers, of course, most of them were grabbed by the generals. These people are not as polite as Zhu Youzhen, and they play with these women in public. Although the women wept incessantly, the voices were soon drowned out by the laughter of thousands of debauchers.
At this time, Mao Wenlong also dragged a woman, and while going up and down, he squeezed his eyebrows at Zhu Youzhen and smiled: "Dao Chief, how is this show today?" ā
On the one hand, Zhu Youzhen was frightened, and on the other hand, he was also quite angry. I thought that Mao Wenlong's military discipline was so corrupt, how could he take on the great task of resisting captivity!
Therefore, he said tentatively: "Lord Commander, although these people are all captured from Jianlu, they are women after all, and they are in the army..."
"You're saying there shouldn't be women in the military, right?" Mao Wenlong shook his head lightly, and sighed happily while drinking, "According to the ban in the army, 17 articles and 54 beheadings, wherever you go, you abuse its people and force silver women, this is called a traitorous army, and the offender will be beheaded." This soldier has been in the army for many years, don't you know it?
But whatever the rules are, they are all made by man. If you can't do it by following the rules, then what's the use of having them? Dao Chief, please think about it, when this soldier first came to Phi Dao, there were less than 200 people in total, what to do with Jianyu? At the very least, we have to find a way to recruit troops, right? As the saying goes, put up a recruiting flag, and you have your own food people. What do ordinary people want to be soldiers? Isn't it just to fill your stomach? But the imperial court didn't give a tael of silver or a stone of military rations, so how could the soldiers recruit soldiers?
Therefore, the soldiers were also forced to reformulate the military rules out of helplessness, and all things robbed from the Jurchens would be divided into five or five accounts. The women who were snatched were also distributed to everyone as much as possible. Then there is the prohibition of shipping, allowing merchants from all over the world to trade on the island, and there are sailors to escort them when they come and go. In just a few years, the population of this small island has increased more than 100 times, and the armaments are complete, and the food and salary are sufficient, and even prostitutes from hundreds of miles nearby come here to do the leather and meat business. Isn't this because the soldiers know how to be flexible and understand human nature? ā
Speaking of this, Mao Wenlong raised his glass and drank it all, and then sneered: "People live for a lifetime, plants and trees for an autumn, and decades are like white horses passing through the gaps, what do you do every day?" Isn't it just the words 'wine and wealth'?
"Therefore the soldiers satisfied them, and there was wine, and meat, and women, and a great deal of silver; Once consumed too much, the soldiers led them to rob the Jurchens. The Jurchens could not cross the sea, so they could only sit and wait to be beaten; Therefore, the soldiers were almost victorious in every battle, and the sergeants suffered very few casualties, and every battle was fought very happily. With these four words, how can these rabbit cubs follow their soldiers without giving up! ā
Zhu Youzhen listened quietly, but he was already furious in his heart. I secretly don't want to look at you Mao Wenlong Zhenzhen, you have not been without merit for many years, but in the final analysis, you are still a warlord who only cares about your own selfish interests! Throughout history, there have been more warlords like Mao Wenlong, and they are basically all small and rich, and in the end, a few can end well!
But after thinking about it, Mao Wenlong is the chief soldier of a town after all, and he plays an important role in containing the Jurchens. If he is allowed to continue to behave like this, Phi Dao will be finished sooner or later, and the pressure on the frontal battlefield will be even greater.
Therefore, Zhu Youzhen still made up his mind to knock Mao Wenlong, and it was best to let him stop the precipice. After pondering for a while, Zhu Youzhen had an idea, so he pretended to say suddenly: "In this way, the chief soldier is a rich woman to maintain the morale of the army. ā
"Yes, exactly!" Mao Wenlong said proudly.
"But have you thought about it," Zhu Youzhen immediately followed sharply, "If the price offered by Jiannu is higher than that of the Chief Soldier, will these sergeants defect?" ā
