Chapter 10: The Nameless Village Fort

Xiao Yi and a few people came to this village fort, and a few people still don't know what this village fort is called, whether it is the Wangjiazhuang that Liu Tong said. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xiao Yi said: "We have to find a place to rest quickly, and Lao Wang's injury must also be seen by Lang Zhong." ”

After that, Xiao Yi turned his head and asked Liu Tong, "Is this Wangjiazhuang?" ”

Liu Daodao: "Should... No. ”

Huang Yang was puzzled: "It shouldn't be?" So what is this place? ”

Liu Daodao: "I don't know, I went to Wangjiazhuang once." ”

Shi Gang said angrily: "Damn, what do you want? Liu Tong was so frightened that he cowered and hid behind Wang Dayong.

Wang Dayong said: "Xiao Yi, my injury is not serious, hurry up and find a place for my brothers to rest." ”

Xiao Yi comforted: "Lao Wang, don't be reckless, hurry up and find a Lang Zhong to recuperate for you to recover faster, and with us, maybe you can meet a few Tartars." ”

Shi Gang also nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Wang, let's kill the Tartars together when the time comes!" Wang Dayong looked at Xiao Yi with emotion and said, "Okay, let's go quickly." ”

As he spoke, he arrived at the gate of this nameless village fort, and when Xiao Yi saw that the gate was closed, he shouted at the gate: "Is there anyone, we are refugees who have fled from Da'ankou!" We have a brother who is seriously injured and needs urgent medical attention, do you have Langzhong? Shi Gang shouted: "Open the door and let us in!" ”

After a while, a man from the city wall stretched out his head and said, "Are you from Daankou?" How is Daankou, did the Tartars fight? ”

Huang Yang rushed to the top and said: "The city is broken, we have escaped!" It is estimated that there is less bad luck. Xiao Yi asked, "Is there a city wall here?" ”

The man on the wall replied, "Wait. Then he disappeared into the city wall, presumably to open the door.

In a short time the simple gates opened, and a crowd of people came out, the first of whom was the most well-dressed of the people here, and only relative to the people here, for the others were dressed in tattered clothes.

The villager who took the lead glanced at Xiao Yi and his party, saw the injured Wang Dayong, and hurriedly said to the person behind him: "Hurry up!" Come in, second, close the door! ”

A person behind him answered, and called a few villagers to hurry to close the door. Xiao Yi and a few people walked and talked, Xiao Yi noticed that life here should not be good, most of the villagers are wearing tattered clothes, and some children are even playing with bare buttocks, but it seems that it is much better than the people in other parts of the Central Plains.

Since they were outside the border, there were very few Tartars and Mongol cavalry, and even if they did, they didn't pay attention to this poor village behind the mountain, and all they had to worry about was the horse thieves nearby.

Therefore, their lives are naturally much better than those of the people who are constantly plundered by Tartar thieves and constantly oppressed by the official army.

Although they are all yellow and thin, they all have shallow smiles on their mouths. Xiao also knew at this time in the Central Plains, SX coincided with a major drought for many years, the people had no harvest, starvation was everywhere, and the victims were crowded, this was not the most difficult time, and in a few years, the plague was rampant, resulting in ten rooms and nine empty, families were mourning, and the people couldn't even afford a coffin, and there was no decent clothing, which was really a doomsday scene.

"Originally, there was no city wall, and there were a lot of horse thieves nearby, so we slowly built this wall to prevent these horse thieves from coming." Liu Si walked aside.

Xiao Yi asked, "Are there many horse thieves around here?" ”

Liu Sidao: "There are more than 300 horse thieves, how is Daankou?" Xiao Yidao: "The Tartars came to attack, Liu Ce left the people to lead the officers and soldiers to escape, and the rest of the people were slaughtered by the Tartars." ”

After hearing this, the second child was angry and said, "Damn, these Tartars, I really want to kill them all." ”

Liu Si didn't seem surprised to hear that Liu Ce left the people behind and fled, but said lightly: "How is this brother, is he seriously injured?" Second, go and call Deng Langzhong to take a look. ”

Inside the house, Wang Dayong was lying on a straw mat, surrounded by people, Xiao Yi, Huang Yang, Shi Gang, Lao Er, Liu Si, and even Liu Tong, and there were many onlookers around. Deng Langzhong closed his eyes to take his pulse, and after a while, Deng Langzhong opened his eyes and said: "It's okay, this person is very strong, just apply some herbs to recuperate, and it can recover in two days. ”

Shi Gang was overjoyed after hearing this, and said again and again: "Haha, great! Thank you so much, Langzhong! ”

Fortunately, there is a Lang Zhong here, Xiao Yi also smiled and said: "Xiao Yi thanked Deng Lang for being successful." Huang Yang also thanked him.

Wang Dayong was also very happy after hearing this, and said: "Haha, in two days, we will be able to kill the enemy side by side!" ”

Shi Gang said excitedly: "Yes, kill the Tartar!" ”

Xiao Yi came out and saw Liu Si outside the door, and Liu Si was also asking: "How is it, how is Brother Dayong." ”

Xiao Yi clenched his fists and replied with a smile: "Deng Langzhong said that it would be good to recuperate for a few days, Brother Liu, thank you a lot." ”

Liu Si waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Don't get in the way, everyone is a poor people, so naturally we have to help each other." ”

The second brother behind him said: "That is, if we don't care, then can we still expect the officers and soldiers to fail?" Ha ha. ”

Xiao Yi had no choice but to nod and say, "Yes, the officers and soldiers are unreliable." ”

Time flies, two days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Xiao Yi and the others have also spent a rare two days of peace here.

Two days later, at noon, Wang Dayong and Shi Gang were working in the fields, and two farmers, a man and a woman, looked at each other and smiled.

The male farmer smiled and said, "Brother Dayong, it seems that you are recovering well." ”

Wang Dayong smiled and said: "That's it, old Liu Tou, look at us now, this is me." Saying that, waving his head, he played with a tiger.

Wang Dayong recovered very quickly in the past two days, and he had to rely on the herbs picked by a girl who went up the mountain in the past two days, Xiao Yi and the others didn't understand this aspect, Deng Langzhong had already helped so much, and a few people were embarrassed to bother again.

It's this little girl named Lixiu, who comes to deliver medicine twice a day, and runs away when she comes to the herbs and puts them on the ground.

On that day, Wang Dayong was sent to let Deng Langzhong take the pulse, and after this girl saw it next to her and heard it, she took the initiative to go to the mountains to collect medicine and send it every day.

Later, I learned that this little girl was called Lixiu, who lost her father earlier, and she had been raised by the second child all these years, and she had already been her daughter.

Xiao Yi and the others were shocked, this beautiful Xiusheng is slim and elegant, although she is not the daughter of a rich family, but she does not have the vulgarity of an ordinary village girl.

Always wearing a gray-white coarse cloth regular clothes, with two ponytails combed behind his little head, he especially likes to laugh, and he gives people a sweet feeling when he laughs.

The second child knew Lixiu's thoughts, and began to be a little surprised, he didn't like this girl, why did he suddenly fall in love with Wang Dayong, who was in his twenties.

Wang Dayong also knows this girl's intentions, but he is almost thirty years old, and this little girl can't look less than twenty, how can she give people the feeling that her old cow eats tender grass, and she is also the goddaughter of the second child, so it can't be updated.

Even though this little girl was already so active, Wang Dayong still didn't say anything, and showed Xiao Yi and the others the appearance that the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry.

However, Wang Dayong swore in his heart that he would not let Lixiu suffer any harm in the future. In fact, not only Wang Dayong, but Xiao Yi and the others also like Lixiu these days, and they will not let anyone hurt her.

Xiao Yi also knew when he was communicating with Liu Si in the past few days, in fact, this is Wangjiazhuang, this small village has been outside the border for a long time, there are often horse thieves haunting, and the officers and soldiers will not care, so he built a wall by himself in order to protect himself. Although it is very low, it is still enough to deal with ordinary horse thieves.

Xiao Yi thought that two days had passed since Houjin broke through Daankou, and it was estimated that the Tartars should have surrounded Zunhua, and Zhao led the general army there.

In history, after Jin entered the Kou, Zunhua general soldier Zhao Shujiao, Jizhen general soldier Yang Guozhu, Yuan Chonghuan and other reinforcements, Zhao Shujiao was surrounded by Tartars in Zunhua, no one rescued, the generals of the Ming Dynasty were all across the mountain to see the fire, Zhao Shujiao died alone.

Xiao Yimo thought: "Alas, Mr. Zhao, it would be nice if I had soldiers and someone." ”

Xiao also knew the deeds of Zhao Shujiao, and he was indeed a rare loyal and brave general in the late Ming Dynasty, and he also wanted to lead an army to rush into the pass, rescue Zhao Shujiao, and defend the Beijing division with Lu Xiangsheng.

But he had nothing, he hadn't even killed a single Tartar himself, and he could only daydream here.

"Oh no, Brother Liu! Tartars, Tartars are coming! A man stumbled and yelled as he ran over.

Liu Si rushed out of the house, "What?!" How did the Tartars come over and they came back? ”

The second child who had just come out asked urgently, "Are you sure it's not the horse thief who is here again." ”

The man said with great certainty: "Yes! The Tartars are coming! Brother Liu, go and take a look, the city gate is in a mess. ”

Liu Si didn't look like he was lying, and the riot at the city gate also showed that it seemed to be true. Xiao Yi ran to the earthen wall with Liu Si and a few others, the wall was already surrounded by frightened people, it seemed that this had been the case since ancient times, although the people were very afraid, but they still gathered around the earthen wall and watched from afar, discussing.

Xiao Yi and the others climbed the earthen wall and did see the tartars. Four ostentatious Tartars drove their people several times their size from afar towards this direction.

Like the Tartar army that passed before, they had a stainless steel knife pinned to their waists, one man and two horses, and they didn't pay any attention to these Ming people on the wall, as if in their eyes these people were lambs to be slaughtered.

They drove more than a dozen people, and in the face of these four Tartars, a dozen people did not have the slightest sense of resistance, and they all ran to the earthen wall screaming with a desperate face, as if they could live here.

But in fact, when they ran to the door with a surprised face, looking at Xiao Yi and the others on the wall, expecting to open the door for them, but Liu Si just clenched his hands, his teeth gurgled and he couldn't open it.

He could not open it for the sake of the people within the wall. The second child, Huang Yang, and Wang Dayong and Shi Gang, who had just arrived, had even more eyes that seemed to be on fire, clenching their fists and gurgling.

The four Houjin soldiers rushed to Xiao Yi to see clearly, these people actually had a white armor! That is, the Baya soldiers! The shining steel armor on the Baya soldiers, the stainless steel tiger spear in their hands, and the stainless steel knives at their waists sat down on two healthy horses. These made Xiao Yi, who was already a little frightened, extinguish any idea of going out to fight him.

The Baya soldier looked at the wall, as if he had expected that Xiao Yi and the others would not open the door, pointed the tiger gun in his hand, and laughed: "Kill these lowly Ming dogs." ”

These Houjin soldiers rode their horses and galloped, chasing and killing the panicked people. A mother with her daughter, the Baya soldiers rode over, and took the woman on the horse, regardless of the woman's shouts, the tiger gun in her hand was only raised, and the little girl was lifted high into the air, the girl was still struggling and shouting, and the Baya soldiers threw her far away on a dirt slope, and the girl was silent for an instant.

When the woman saw this, she shouted, "You Tartars!" The struggle was even greater, and the Baya soldier threw him directly under his horse, and trampled him to death. He muttered, "Annoying Ming dog." ”

There are only four Houjin soldiers, and there are more than a dozen people, which does not mean that any of them can escape, the Houjin soldiers are all one person and two horses, they can calmly kill one here, and then rush over to kill the people who are running hard. In the end, the one who dies will only be tortured to death, and the previous one is better.

Watching the Houjin soldiers shouting and chasing and killing the unarmed people, he couldn't save any of them.

Xiao Yi's eyes gradually turned red, as if he remembered the scene when his father was killed by Li You, his incompetence and cowardice, just like these scared people behind him.
