Chapter 17 - Reaching the Periphery
"There's a fallen tree in front. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Lynch exclaimed loudly, and several people were in good spirits, "Tang Sanzang learned scriptures from the Western Regions," and that's it!
Liu Shaobin walked a few steps and came to the mark, observing carefully.
But before he could see what the result was, he suddenly heard gunshots from the valley in front of him.
"Bang... Bang...! ”
Then there were a series of gunshots, Liu Shaobin was shocked, and hurriedly took the three companions behind him and went straight to the valley where the gunshots came.
It is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, in Liu Shaobin's heart, there is no fear of the word at all, and the same is true for several other people!
Even Lynch went to the front...... was so shocked that Liu Shaobin hurriedly whispered to him back.
"You don't want to die? It's not such a law! ”
Lynch was a little unconvinced, but before he arrived in Xiangxi, he still had to follow Liu Shaobin...... He does have more experience than his own.
Liu Shaobin pulled a few people, lying on the top of the mountain, looking at the valley with his eyes, just this moment of hurrying, the battle in the valley was over!
Therefore, when they arrived, all they saw was the soldiers of the Patriotic Army cleaning the battlefield.
I saw one hundred and eighty corpses lying in the valley, and seeing which color was all Qing soldiers, several people couldn't help but look at each other! And that's the end of it? Is the combat effectiveness of the Patriotic Army really so strong?
"Brother Liu, let's take a closer look, shall we?"
"Lynch, if you want to die, don't take a few of us with you...... It's good to go by yourself! ”
Seeing that the request was not agreed to by his companion, Lynch was a little depressed, and he was lying on top of it to see, what could he see?
He didn't give up, and he had some other small actions...... It's just that before he could implement it, he was already pressed by Zhang Shaobin.
That's when ...... I wonder if it's my own delusion? Liu Shaobin felt that in the mountains and forests on both sides, it seemed that there were other eyes looking at him!
But after a closer look, I didn't find anything...... couldn't help but shake his head, "Could it be that the fatigue of the recent period of time has caused me to hallucinate?" ”
The moment he turned around!
"Don't move!"
Liu Shaobin only felt that his head was pressed against a cold foreign object, and he instantly remembered in his mind that there were one hundred and ten corpses lying under the valley just now.
At the same time, with the voice behind him, he slowly raised his hands and pleaded in a low voice!
"Ladies and gentlemen...... We are just ordinary hunters in the mountains, with neither money nor food......"
"Less chirp!"
Who knew that the person behind him didn't sympathize with him at all, and after scolding him, he was knocked to the ground by the butt of a gun, at this time ~ because of the angle.
Liu Shaobin finally saw the fate of a few companions, and it seems that something is not good!
And Lynch because of the reason for the rebellion...... Being beaten at this time! It wasn't until a "stop" came that these barbarians stopped abusing themselves and others.
"Report to the company commander, I caught four spies, who were on the periphery of our troops just now, trying to spy on something......"
The so-called company commander did not pay attention to the reports of his subordinates, but asked them to gather all four Liu Shaobin.
Looking carefully at the hands of Liu Shaobin and the four of them, Lynch wanted to resist halfway...... Another lesson! The hand is checked in no time!
Just as Liu Shaobin and the others were waiting for the results in anxiety, a ...... suddenly came out: "Untie them." ”
may have seen that Liu Shaobin was the leader, and the so-called company commander walked in front of him and said, "Are you the soldiers who came to participate in the scientific expedition at the invitation of the marshal?" ”
Liu Shaobin wanted to deny it, but he didn't know what to think, but he acquiesced.
Seeing that Liu Shaobin didn't react, the company commander said again: "This is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple...... I don't know a family! ”
"Let me reintroduce you to you, we are the Patriotic Army, not the so-called Green Battalion soldiers of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, so you don't have to be afraid of anything...... When you get here, your suffering along the way will be over. ”
After speaking, he beckoned his soldiers to help Liu Shaobin and others carry their luggage, and the group turned around and went down the mountain...... Seeing that they were so easy to talk, Lynch, who was unconvinced by the beating just now, had a little other thoughts at this time,
"Hey, what do you see, it's you, come and carry the young master down the mountain!"
The soldier glanced back at Lynch, ignored it and went down the mountain, not only Lynch was a little dumbfounded!
Even Liu Shaobin and the other three were a little incredible...... You must know that since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the status of a soldier has been incredibly low!
Lin Qi asked for this, in fact, Liu Shaobin and others were also on the sidelines, if these soldiers were soft...... Then you can't enjoy this kind of service.
The hard trek of the past few days...... I and the others can be regarded as having suffered a hardship that they have never endured in their lives, but who would have thought that the reaction of the soldiers would be so fierce!
Without looking back, he went down the mountain, and after hearing Lynch's words, even the soldiers who were originally walking behind him accelerated past the figures of themselves and others and walked forward.
And it's the kind that doesn't look back!
This kind of situation makes Lynch and others look at each other!
couldn't help but look at Liu Shaobin, and saw that the eyes of his companions were all focused on him.
Liu Shaobin had to sigh helplessly and said: "I also heard about my brother, I don't know if it's true or not?" It is said that the status of the warriors in Xiangxi is very high, and to some extent it may not be lower than that of the literati, and even for the brother, I have heard a rumor"
"That is the legendary Patriotic Army Commander Zhang Yun, who hates reading people very much, of course, this is just a legend and has never been confirmed!"
"How can the Patriotic Army do this? How can these reckless men who can only use knives and guns have a higher status than the literati who read the books of the sages? Guo Qian said indignantly, "
"Who's to say it's not...... When I first heard it for my brother, I also felt a little incredible! But everyone in the world loves to spread rumors, these may not be credible, anyway, we are here, and then rely on our own eyes to see, what is it, just look at it! ”
"Hmm!"
Several people nodded together, just looking at the road down the mountain...... Several people shook their heads together!
At this time, he had already descended to the foot of the mountain...... The soldiers of the Patriotic Army were regrouped.
Some soldiers reported the words they had just heard to the company commander who was walking in the front, and explained by the way why they didn't wait for those scholars to go down the mountain together!
The company commander was noncommittal after listening!
In fact, I have seen a lot of this kind of thing, and these soldiers are making a fuss and feel that their dignity has been greatly insulted! I really can't get on the table.
The arrogance of these so-called scholars...... Didn't it only break once under the handsome handsome, no matter how hard the bones were, could it be compared to knives and guns?
As the marshal said...... The arrogance of the so-called scholars, since it was broken once in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, why can't it be broken when it comes to his subordinates?
I thought of the political book issued by the marshal later, and the virtues of all kinds of scholars mentioned on it...... Especially the so-called Cheng Zhu Lixue ......,
The founder's various actions that can't be put on the table!! It's disgusting!
As well as the 5,000-year history of China, the bad things about the various scholars described above, the company commander snorted from his nose.
"Do you think this is a pseudo-Qing?"
But leave them alone, regardless of their ...... Obviously inappropriate, when I came, there was a stern order from above, let hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Patriotic Army. With the company as a unit, drive into this vast mountain.
Just to answer ...... The so-called scholars who came from all over the country, this is a military order, and there is no room for sloppiness, otherwise what will happen? You can imagine it!
Although he did not understand the above order, this did not prevent him from carrying it out, and the commander once said that hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Patriotic Army must repeat it every day.
"It is the duty of a soldier to carry out orders!"
"Ouch... Ouch! ”
Lynch felt like he was rolling down a mountain, letting out a roar of pain along the way.
And the gang of Qiu Ba, who killed a thousand knives, watched themselves ...... from the hillside Rolled down, but he didn't say to come and help himself.
When the four of them finally came to the foot of the mountain, the officer on the other side came over again, but he didn't say anything to his own people...... Only one sentence remains.
"Follow us...... Don't be left behind. ”
So Lynch felt like he had gone from one floor above ground to the eighteenth floor of hell!
Originally, the four of them could still walk and stop...... But all this has changed since they met the team of Patriotic Army soldiers who should have killed a thousand knives in front.
Forced to march along the way, regardless of the physical fitness of himself and others, the suffering suffered along the way is simply a sea!
On this day, when it was time to camp again, Lynch looked at the basin of hot water from the soldiers of the Patriotic Army in front of him, and was about to say thank you...... This is also the politeness that I and others have learned after suffering a big loss in the past two days.
It's a pity that I haven't waited for Lynch's thank you...... The two soldiers of the Patriotic Army on the opposite side held him down, and under his shouting, the blisters on his feet caused by continuous high-intensity rushing had already been punctured, and at the same time, regardless of his pain, they directly pressed his feet into hot water.
"Ahh
With this earth-shattering scream, it was shouted from Lynch's mouth...... Finally, he was liberated!
It's just a pity that his four companions have not yet been liberated...... So, in the next camp, three screams rang out one after another!
The next day.
Replaced with the new ...... issued to him by the Patriotic Army The so-called military cloth shoes, Lynch bared his teeth and used all his strength to stand up.
The blisters on this foot that were all picked last night, although after a night, no longer blood gushing out, but this painful feeling has not been alleviated by half a minute!
What's even more fucking up is that I'm going to keep going today...... And can't rest more, these Qiu Ba don't say to make a stretcher or something...... Lynch is ruthless in his heart!
Don't give Lao Tzu a chance to rise...... When they walked out of the tent and saw the other three people, they exchanged glances with each other, and they all saw the cold color in each other's eyes.
It's a pity that the soldiers of the Patriotic Army, who also saw their eyes, were dismissive!
"Do you think this is a pseudo-Qing? I want to get revenge on our ...... for getting guns."
Hey...!
