91, just a swarm of ants
Probably due to the Xiaoice period, the temperature drops, and there is occasional snow in Youzhou in March, so spring ploughing here is delayed until March, and in some places even begins to break ground in April.
Zhangjia Village is located in the northern part of Zhuo County, where there are not many rivers, irrigation is inconvenient, and the land is extremely barren.
It's April, and the spring ploughing in Zhangjia Village has already been completed, which will be flooding the dry land. The fields in Zhangjia Village are far away from the river, and irrigation is very inconvenient, and in the past, you could only use wooden barrels to carry water, but since Zun Shang made a waterwheel, irrigation has become much easier and more convenient.
Two brothers, Zhang San and Zhang Da, are busy on the waterwheel, both of them are not very old, they are both teenagers.
Zhang San said excitedly: "Big brother, fortunately, our village has this waterwheel, otherwise we would have to carry water and be tired to death." His Majesty is really a great immortal, he invented this waterwheel, how to say that, by the way, to save the people from the dire situation. ”
Zhangjia Village is not far from Zhuo County, so the people here also speak some fresh words.
"This waterwheel is called a keel car, it was not invented by His Excellency, and some people have used it in the south of our Han Dynasty." Zhang Da felt that he could tell the origin of the waterwheel, and he was quite proud.
"Well, really? On the contrary, it is precisely because of the kindness of the Venerable that we have this keel car. Right, big brother? "Zhang San admires the Venerable Faith very much, and usually does not allow anyone to say that he has a flaw.
Seeing Zhang Da's eyes looking solemnly in one direction, Zhang San asked, "What's wrong, big brother?" ”
Zhang San also looked over there, and when he saw it, he was shocked, only to see a group of cavalry on the field path running towards the village, and the number of people was about hundreds.
"It's not good, it's Hu Ren!" Zhang Da suddenly shouted.
Zhang San stared at the strange clothes of those cavalrymen, which were completely different from the Central Plains people, although he had never seen the Hu people, but he had also heard of them, what was it if he was not a Hu people?
"How did the Hu people come here?" Zhang San panicked.
Zhuo County is in the southeast of Youzhou, far away from the desert, and generally Xianbei and other Hu people will choose several counties in the west of Youzhou, and rarely go deep into Youzhou. It was the first time Zhang San had seen the Hu cavalry, and when he heard about the fierceness and cruelty of the Hu people, he was inevitably terrified.
"Let's hurry back to the village!"
Zhang Da pulled Zhang San and ran to the village, and shouted while running: "The Hu people are here, the Hu people are here!" ”
Many villagers in the field also saw it, and immediately shouted and ran to the village, where there were family members. Nearly 100 villagers in Zhangjia Village are immediately gathered, picking up hoes and sticks and waiting for the battle, and now there is no time to escape, so they can only rise up to fight the enemy.
Smoke and dust billowed and horses' hooves roared, like bursts of wild beasts roaring and screaming, and in the smoke and dust, a large number of men and horses rushed towards the village, and the villagers were so frightened that some began to scatter and flee.
Li Zheng roared loudly and shouted: "Don't be afraid, although we haven't killed anyone, we are not officers and soldiers, but we have all learned the immortal gate of the immortal gate, as long as we work together, we may not be able to defeat ......"
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, a few sharp arrows flew in, and Li Zheng hurriedly hid in the corner of the wall, his hands holding the long stick trembled slightly, obviously very scared. The faces of the people were also pale, and Gu was silent.
As soon as the sound of horses' hooves stopped, the Hu cavalry stopped dozens of meters away from the village, and several Hu cavalry rushed over, running back and forth around the village with great force, laughing at the people in the village, obviously mocking the cowardly personality of the villagers.
I haven't seen the plundering of the Hu people for many years, and the side piers of Zhangjia Village to defend against the enemy have not been repaired all year round, and they are all low, and the Hu people can jump over from the horseback. However, the Hu people also seemed to know that this group of villagers was not easy to mess with, so they did not dare to approach, but shouted more than ten meters away.
There were still more than a dozen villagers who did not run back to the village in time, and were surrounded by Hu Qi and slaughtered for a while, leaving only a few old and weak women to rush to the villagers.
Suddenly, Zhang San suddenly shouted: "Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng......"
Everyone looked, and sure enough, Hu Qi smiled and rushed to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl to come here, Xiaofeng is the most beautiful village girl in the village, and there are many teenagers who love her.
"Save me, save me......"
Listening to Xiaofeng's mournful scream, the villagers were all worried, Zhang San gritted his teeth and jumped out violently, and several teenagers beside him also jumped out of the side pier and pounced on Hu Qi.
Zhang San was fast, but in the blink of an eye, he arrived at Xiao Feng's side, and swept away with a stick, with a whistling sound, "bang", and swept a Hu horse away.
Hu Qi next to him suddenly pupiled for a moment, and slashed at Zhang San, but Zhang San was as sensitive as a leopard, dodged it, and then stabbed forward, and Hu Qi flew out a few meters away, and fell to the ground and couldn't stand up for a while.
At the same time, the other teenagers also easily killed a few Hu Qi.
Suddenly, Zhang San and the others were stunned, was this Hu Qi solved by him so easily? It doesn't seem to be as terrifying as the legend says!
Suddenly, Li Zheng came to his senses and shouted: "We have all practiced the immortal method, but these barbarians do not, don't be afraid, kill them!" ”
As he spoke, he rushed towards Hu Qi first, and the villagers behind him also rushed away with shouts......
The patriarch of the Xianbei Eagle Clan, Sheduo, was very depressed, and sent a thousand horsemen divided into more than ten teams to catch the strong men, but only more than 200 people were captured, and they were all old and weak, and the 1,000 horsemen only came back 600 horses, and each team suffered heavy losses, and even some were almost slaughtered.
"I didn't expect there to be so many warriors in this Zhuo County, no wonder we didn't enter this Zhuo County before. However, no matter how many warriors there are, they are not as many as the warriors of our Xianbei people. The simple-minded Shedo thought.
"Pass the order down and let those two hundred Han people add a moat!" Shedo shouted.
"No!" The men took the order and left.
……
Bai Ziyun climbed the city wall, the county guard Liu Ji and other officials hurriedly saluted, and everyone saw that Bai Ziyun finally appeared, which can be said to be a big stone in their hearts.
The regular servant Zhang Rang was also present, and he saluted and said: "The old slave Zhang Rang has seen the honorable!" ”
"It turned out to be Zhang Changshi, fortunately! Fortunately! Bai Ziyun said with a smile.
Zhang Rang secretly rolled his eyes, he didn't see such a big shelf, so he made an angel wait for more than a month to see the main master. However, he has lived in Zhuoxian County for more than a month, especially the food in Baiyun Restaurant makes him never get tired of eating, and there is storytelling in the teahouse, which is a wonderful and exciting story that can make him sit in the teahouse all day.
Bai Ziyun looked at the Xianbei camp below and asked, "It's just five thousand people, why didn't Liu Taishou open the door to meet the enemy and kill them directly?" ”
Liu Ji smiled bitterly: "This ...... Zhuoxian now has no more than 800 defenders, and they are all infantry, even if they are brave, they are outnumbered after all, and they still need the help of their superiors. ”
Bai Ziyun suddenly understood, the eight hundred infantry he said were probably all old and weak soldiers, even if they cultivated the Baiyun Heart Method, the improved force was very limited, and it could not be the opponent of the Xianbei cavalry.
Bai Ziyun realized that this time was a good way to further increase his prestige, so he smiled and said, "It's just a group of ants, and it's enough to deal with them alone." ”
