Chapter 38: Cruelty
The figure was very dexterous, he leaned down at the head of the wall, sliding down little by little, and finally, only his hands climbed the wall, and the whole person hung down in a straight line.
The pier wall was about four meters high, and it was already more than two meters for him to hang down with his arms straight, and as soon as his hands were loosened, the person landed with a thud, which was very obvious in the dark night.
The dark shadow quickly curled up in a ball under the wall.
The pier seemed to hear the movement here, and there was a slight commotion, and then a shout came: "What person? ”
The shadow curled up motionless.
The man on duty on the pier platform took a lantern and shone it in this direction, leaning out to take a closer look, but naturally found nothing.
It was a long time before he muttered to himself twice and shrank back, and after a while, there was another even snoring on the platform.
After waiting for a long time, the black shadow curled up under the wall crawled to the ground and crawled outward. He cautiously bypassed the trench with a sharp wooden gun inserted in it, and climbed out for more than twenty meters before he stood up and ran out in a puff of smoke, and soon his figure disappeared in the night.
The black shadow obviously had a plan in mind, and walked straight to the northwest in a way, and soon walked three or four miles.
The stars hang down and the plains are wide, and there seems to be only one person in the vast world.
The starlight flashed and illuminated his face&1&本&read&novel{.{ yb}{du}.} Rong, it turned out to be Wang Yu. His face was gloomy, his mouth was tightly pursed, his face was tense, and a breath of resentment and anger was about to come out, obviously full of injustice. There is a faint mixture of expectation, excitement, uneasiness, and excitement in his expression, which is very complicated.
In the evening of this day, the brothers Zhou Bo and Zhou Zhong had already gone out to investigate in advance and found out the location of the Houjin team.
They are professional scouts, that is, scouts in later generations, and no matter what era, scouts will always be the most elite branch of the army. The job of the Zhou Bo brothers is to go deep into the enemy territory to reconnoiter the enemy's movements, and they are familiar with reconnaissance.
In the Ming Dynasty, the night does not collect to the elite of the battalions and forts, due to the danger, can be selected into the night is the Ming army in the extremely outstanding figures, the Ming Dynasty to their treatment is also very generous, even if they are killed and wounded, the descendants have a preferential reward, at the end of each year, the official will also set up a altar for them in the town to sacrifice.
But now in Chongzhen, this kind of generous treatment is gone, just like the other two in Anxiangdun who don't collect it at night, and Dong Ceke deducts their military salary, they still don't dare to say a word.
Brother Zhou Bo really has real skills, and he can touch all the way by relying on some traces, of course, it is also this Houjin army that is too arrogant and does not hide his whereabouts.
Thinking about it, General Yiming's performance in previous wars was to find their traces, and he had to organize hundreds of soldiers to dare to go over.
Wang Yu is a person who has lived here for more than ten years, he is very familiar, and he does not stop all the way, and walks seven or eight miles to the northwest, bypassing Chenpizhuang, and then turning west and walking a distance. When he saw a forest and heard the sound of running water, his heart was relieved.
Wang Yu cautiously touched it and hid behind the woods to take a look.
Seven or eight fires were lit in the glade, and the flames were extinguished, illuminating the surrounding area. There was a strange smell in the flames, apparently a lot of mosquito repellent herbs had been added to the fire.
Next to the fire, there were already many places where weeds had been burned, and many tents had been set up on them, and at a rough glance, there were more than a dozen.
One of the tents in the center was extraordinarily large, with a red silk tape hanging down from the spire, and it was evident that it was the dwelling place of the Golden White Baya Lama and his Ahmen. More than a dozen tents form a semi-arc, with a fire in front of it.
The Houjin soldiers were all sitting by the fire, laughing loudly.
It was the rest time of the night, and they all looked very relaxed, neither of them wearing armor, revealing the blue arrow coats inside, presumably in their personal tents. The weapon was also in hand, not in hand, and the helmet was removed, revealing a shaved and blue half of the scalp and a small pigtail the size of a pig's tail on the back of the head.
The horses were tethered to the side, and a few Aha were waiting to feed the horses.
There was an iron shelf on the fire, wearing some kind of meat on it, exuding bursts of tempting aroma, and the remaining Aha sat on the edge of the fire, constantly flipping the barbecue on it, brushing some condiments on it from time to time, ready to wait for their master to eat later.
Their relaxed posture was not so much to come to fight as to have fun, and obviously they didn't pay attention to the Ming troops in the surrounding forts and piers.
And the Houjin soldiers gathered together and formed a circle, and in the center of the circle was a filthy rag. One...... is lying on it, looking closely, this is a very outstanding beauty, only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful face, fair and delicate complexion, like clotted fat. The amount of labor of women in this era is not small, and those who are generally from poor families have rough skin, and people like her know at a glance that they are from large families, but they don't know how they were taken captive by these slaves.
(omitted below...... )
He turned around and shouted a few words at a man who was barbecuing meat, and Aha got down on one knee and ran away. After a while, he came over with a young man in his hand, who looked like he was about twenty years old, quite handsome, thin, and wearing a long-sleeved gown, not like a farmer, but like a scholar.
That Aha is a slave in front of Bai Jia, and in fact, he is also quite powerful, holding this young man with one hand is like lifting a chicken, all the way over, and throwing him to the ground.
The young man fell hard, screamed in pain, and rolled on the ground, his clothes covered with dirt and grass clippings.
A few Houjin soldiers laughed when they saw it.
Na Aha pulled the young man's hair, looked his face in the direction of the woman, and laughed loudly: "Look, look at who this woman is!" ”
The young man was in pain, and he couldn't help but look over, and at this look, the whole person was suddenly stunned. He fell to his knees, his mouth wide open, staring at the woman's face.
"Lady!" He suddenly burst out with a howl of grief and indignation, his eyes were about to split, and he didn't know where the strength came from, but he struggled to think of the woman and pounced.
After that, Jin Aha had already stared at him, and when he saw his movements, he sneered, and kicked him the waist and eyes, and immediately kicked him on the heel and fell to the ground.
The woman also heard her husband's shouts, and when she looked this way, the two looked at each other, one with tears on his face and despair, and the other with a hideous face and blood from the corners of his eyes.
After staring at each other for a while, the woman's distracted eyes suddenly regained their brightness, she screamed in panic, the whole person shrunk into a ball, pulled her hair down to cover her face, and tried to cover the exposed skin on her body with both hands. But she was stripped all over her body, how could she cover it?
She hurriedly covered up for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, wow, covered her face and cried bitterly.
Her husband, the young man, was also lying on the ground and crying.
