Chapter 020: Yang Hao

By the Wuding River, Dong'er sat on the reef, clasped his hands and knees, looking at the surging river.

Tang Yanyan walked over in a hurry, and said anxiously: "Eldest sister, the official hasn't been found yet, and Xue'er and Mrs. Zhou haven't ...... either, alas, it's really a hurry." ”

Dong'er didn't look back, and said quietly: "Big brother, I will definitely try my best to find them, I believe that as long as they are alive, they will definitely be found, Yanyan, you don't have to worry too much." ”

Yan Yan was a little surprised by her unusually calm tone, she looked sideways at Dong'er's calm face, and couldn't help but say, "Eldest sister, they ...... One is your official, and the other is your own flesh and blood, aren't you worried? How to ......"

Dong'er slowly turned her head and smiled faintly: "What can you worry about?" What should I do? If you are crazy like a demon, you are in shape, and you wash your face with tears all day long, is that what a good wife should be? ”

She slowly stood up: "Yes, I am his wife and Cher's mother. But...... At present, I am still the backbone of countless soldiers and civilians on our side, and I am the commander of thousands of troops. Yanyan, I have only thought about ...... a lot, in fact, the last time General Zhi did not move and refused to go to help, the anger in my heart was not less than yours, but it was ...... I know that is not the time to turn against them.

But what are the facts? It turns out that General Zhe is right, and Miss Zhe is also right, if we really rushed to rescue the officials at that time, it would only prompt the officials to die early, and it would have taken all of us. Yesterday, Yinzhou narrowly lost again, if it weren't for the fact that the eldest brother happened to bring back the new army after training, now it would not be just a simple consequence as Xue'er and Mrs. Zhou's whereabouts are unknown.

I thought about it, I thought about it a lot, although we are developing fast, but there are too few generals who can be used, Zhang Pu is a wise general, but he is far away in Xiazhou, and he can't help it, Mu En, Mu Kui, and Ai Yihai are all good generals, they can be the heroes of one side, and they are also not the material of the commander. Although General Ke is a military general of the Tang Dynasty, he has been confined to the cottage as a hunter for too long, and the pattern is too small, so it is always difficult to become a big weapon. ”

Tang Yanyan said irritably: "Eldest sister, the whereabouts of the official are unknown, what are you talking about now?" ”

Dong'er said seriously: "You see, if Zhe Yuxun encounters what happened to our officials, Fuzhou will never go out, so that there is an empty city left in the rear." If Zhe Yuxun falls, Fuzhou can immediately launch a person to replace him, and we can't do it, there is only one official who can dominate the overall situation, and there are only a handful of generals who can attack and defend at the same time. If it weren't for the help of others and the luck that fell from the sky, we would have been defeated by now, but luck will not always be on our side. We really are...... It's too emotional. ”

She slowly turned around, stood facing Yan Yan, and said, "Yan Yan, General Fang Cai sent someone to inquire about the safety of the officials, and invited us to send troops to attack Li Guangrui together if possible, otherwise I am afraid that he will not be able to eat Li Guangrui with his own strength." ”

Tang Yanyan said in surprise: "So what? My sister won't agree to send troops, right? Now that the officials are gone, Xue'er is gone, and in the vast grassland, there are either soldiers or people everywhere, so how unexpected it is for us to find them. If we scatter all our manpower, we may not be able to search the entire grassland, how can we have time to hunt down and kill Li Guangrui? ”

"No, you have to go, you have to go!"

Dong'er said without question: "Before the official jumped into the water to get out of trouble, he had already anticipated the next movement of the enemy army and the reaction we should make, and he instructed us not to go to the rescue, so as not to fall into the trap, and at the same time immediately enter a defensive state to prevent Li Guangrui from counterattacking, but not to retreat, to tightly entangle Li Guangrui, until his army that has lost its spirit is trapped, dragged down, and dragged to pieces." This is a great opportunity to defeat Lee Kuan Rui once and for all, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not to be missed.

Now, one thing that the officials did not expect was that Lee Guangrui's plan to trap the officials in order to eat the reinforcements had failed, but he had also lost the grain and grass on which he depended, so that they would collapse faster and collapse earlier, of course, on the premise that ...... We put more intense pressure on the enemy forces that are about to collapse, so that they feel that there is no other way out.

At such a critical time, it is no longer stupid to make all the soldiers and horses scouts and scatter them all over the grassland to find people, but crazy. Yanyan, our family is not a family of ordinary people who live with one surname, and the reason why we did stupid things is because we didn't realize it. The officials are not here, and we must fight this battle well! If I miss this opportunity, the officials will not forgive me, and I will not forgive me. ”

She raised her head, looked at the Yangzi banner in the camp, and said firmly: "The official instructed us, whether he rushed back or not, we must raise his general flag, the official has good intentions, Yanyan, I will hand over the three thousand female soldiers to you, you take them to continue to search for the official's next road, and I ...... Will raise the banner of officials, cooperate with General Zhe, and launch a final attack on Lee Kuang-rui! ”

Dong'er patted Tang Yanyan on the shoulder and walked forward, Yanyan looked at her back with some astonishment.

War matures people.

The trap of the ruins of Taogu and the loss and recovery of Yinzhou City made Luo Dong'er grow up quickly, and she learned from the pain, she had gradually faded away from her initial youth and ignorance, and began to face the enemy with a calm and calm attitude.

Yan Yan looked at Dong'er's firm steps, and in a trance, it seemed that she saw another excerpt, their eyes were as resolute and calm, but under the light of those ice-like eyes, was there really no emotional fluctuation?

Maybe...... Am I really wrong? Excerpts are not as ruthless as I see?

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ at the foot of Hengshan, in the col, there is a hunter.

It is a small col with a river that winds its way north. The pass was overgrown with thorny bushes, and there was only one path into the valley, which was so wooded that the huts were covered with vines, and from a distance they were almost unrecognizable, and I don't know how many years had passed. Compared to the chaos of the outside world, this place is like a small paradise.

There were three huts, basking in the warm sun, and several hens were rummaging through the haystacks in the stone yard, rummaging for insects, and one hen had just laid eggs, flapping her wings and "clucking", jumping down from the haystack, and walking away triumphantly.

Hearing the crow of the chicken, a woman came out of the room, this woman was dressed in a rough and simple Qiang clothes, the clothes were plain, and the green cloth on her head also looked very old, and it was obvious that the family was not very good. The woman is in her thirties, with a strong figure, eyebrows and eyes and facial features quite charming, although her skin is a little rough and has shallow wrinkles because of the hard work, but it can be vaguely seen that when she is a few years younger, she must be a very handsome woman.

The woman smiled with satisfaction at the sight of the red-skinned egg, which was still warm, and carefully placed it in the basket hanging under the porch, and the woman opened the door on the left, and entered the house.

In the house, Yang Hao was groggily asleep, but was awakened by the cry of the hen. He was in a high fever, his consciousness was sometimes awake and sometimes drowsy, his whole body seemed to be stuck in a cloud pile, and suddenly he was blown straight up by the wind, and suddenly he fell to the ground quickly, and the feeling of the world spinning was very uncomfortable, and he quickly closed his eyes again.

The door opened, he felt someone walk in, and then a crockpot was handed to the corner of his mouth, feeling the wetness of the water, Yang Hao subconsciously opened his mouth, and drank it with a bang, the cold water entered his stomach, his body was cooler, and his consciousness was slightly clearer, and then a calloused hand gently covered his forehead.

"Well...... it's still burning badly."

The woman muttered, the hand slipped from the hot forehead to the cheek, stayed for a while, then slid to his chest, gently pressed his strong pectoral muscles, the woman smiled deliciously: "It's a sturdy man, and he looks handsome, I don't know which family he is, alas, he fights and kills all day long, just to eat, poor thing, if I hadn't saved you, a good man, wouldn't it be soaked......"

The woman's eyes moved to his lower body again, and when she saw the small tent held up high, the laughter of eating faintly brought a hint of swaying: "It's not honest when you're sick like this, ...... young in the end?"

Her face flushed, she bit her lip slightly, and the hand tentatively touched his lower body...... "Xiaodong, Xiaodong......"

A man's voice suddenly rang out, and the woman retracted her hand like an electric shock and hurried out of the room.

Yang Hao didn't know her small movements, and felt that she was leaving, so he opened his eyes weakly.

Yang Hao's martial arts, it stands to reason that he will not be worse than those soldiers, most of those soldiers were rescued ashore, and some struggled to row to the north shore halfway, and left on their own. Yang Hao shouldn't have been unconscious anyway and drifted to the present.

But unlucky, after Yang Hao jumped off the cliff, he paddled desperately to prevent himself from being washed away immediately, and shouted at the cliff to encourage his brothers to jump off. Xiao Yu arranged his own soldiers in the back, and deliberately crowded forward when he shouted, squeezing out a group of people. Poor Yang Hao had no roots under his feet, and there was no way to avoid it, and his forehead was hit by a rotten wood held by a soldier, so he ...... Generalissimo Yang fainted...... Yang Hao, who was fainting, went straight down the river, crossed the pontoon bridge, floated into the fork in the waterway, and finally floated along a small tributary to this mountain col. But although his people were rescued, but he was immersed in the water for too long, the river after the flood was cold to the bone, soaked for such a long time, even if he was strong, he couldn't stand it, he was originally a lonely yang body, the external heat induced the internal fire, and the fever was out of control.

The woman turned into another room, crossed her hands and shouted, "Niu, what do you call when the old lady goes out with such a big effort?" ”

I only heard the man's voice say: "Xiaodong, our family's own life is hard, it's hard enough, how can you save a person who eats for nothing?" ”

The woman said, "Then you won't be saved if you die?" ”

She sighed, entered the house, sat down on the edge of the kang, and said, "Hu'er Niu, I will plan and leave him behind, what do you think?" ”

"Stay?"

"Well, although his robe is tattered, it can be seen that he is a soldier, so he still has a sword on him. It's not just to have something to eat when you are a soldier, let's have a hard time, at least we don't have to risk losing our heads, I calculated it, and told him that he could agree. ”

The man became excited: "I know, I know, you save a strange man back, you didn't have a good idea, okay!" Good! You're going to give it up, aren't ......?"

There was a snap in the house, as if someone had been slapped in the face, and then the woman's voice rang out with some anger: "Hu'er Niu, I have no man at the age of twenty-three, and you exchanged a bear skin for you and married you brothers." Originally, your brother was a famous hunter, and his family was still well-off, and he didn't bend me, but in the winter of the second year, you hunted the leopard and took off your sleeve, bit your brother to death, and bit your leg lame.

If I were that kind of ruthless and unrighteous woman, I would have left a long time ago, where are you chasing me? Even now, with the appearance of the old lady, are you worried about getting married? I just don't want to leave you. But now you have no legs and feet, and you can only lay a trap and set a trap up and down the mountain, and what prey can you catch? If we don't recruit a man into the house, how can we live, you say? ”

The man was speechless, and the woman said again: "Besides, your brothers are as strong as bears, but they didn't let me give birth to a son and a half daughter, and when we are old and helpless, do we still have a way to live?" If he is willing to stay, won't our family also have some headwork? ”

The man was silent, the woman sighed, and said: "Don't worry, a husband and wife for a hundred days, whether you are paralyzed or lame, I will not leave you alone, but relying on me as a woman, this family can't hold on......"

The woman began to cry as she spoke, and the man let out a long sigh and said, "Xiaodong, don't cry, I'm sorry for you." Alas, then ...... Leave him behind, huh? ”

The woman cried for a while, and said, "I'll go to the mountains to see what kind of prey you caught in the trap you laid yesterday, and by the way, I'll pick some herbs for him and come back, and I'll boil five eggs in the pot, and when he wakes up in a while, you send him over, and I see that he's strong, and if he's willing to eat, the disease will be cured." ”

The man hummed quietly, and as soon as the door creaked, the woman walked out.

Yang Hao listened intermittently, but the house was not soundproof at all, and he still heard the conversation between the two clearly, and his eyes suddenly straightened...... Yang Hao knows that the various ethnic groups in the Hengshan area live together, and some things may be a little shocking if you look at them from the perspective of the Han people in the Central Plains, but in the bitter cold region of the northwest, due to the harsh living environment, some things that are not tolerated by reason and law in the Central Plains are very common in the local area, such as polygamy.

Some tribes in the Hengshan area are monogamous, some are polygamous, and some deep mountain tribes are polyandry, polyandry families, some are brothers and friends. Brotherly co-wife is a custom formed over time after the eldest brother marries a wife, and the younger brother can also live with his sister-in-law.

In such a family, the eldest brother is the head of the family, and no matter who the child's biological father is, the children call the eldest brother their father, and their younger brothers uncles, even if the younger brother is his biological father. The husband represents the family externally and decides things internally, so the status of the head of the family and the eldest son is clear.

Another situation is that friends and co-wives, because the family lacks labor and cannot maintain the survival of the family, so it is necessary to recruit a man to come back and form a co-wife family to make a living together.

As long as the woman is shrewd and capable, the family life is properly arranged, and the husbands can live in harmony, then she is a virtuous and capable wife, and the local people will not disdain her because she has several husbands, but will admire her ability to run the house.

It sounds like this family is indeed a little bitter, and this custom also exists in the local area, so although the Niu Erniu was a little reluctant, he did not have the courage to refute his wife, so he could only agree.

Yang Hao heard what was going on clearly, and couldn't help but laugh a little: "Remnant soldiers? Recruitment? I didn't expect my Yang Hao to be quite sought-after......"

After laughing at himself, he was concerned about his army again: "Now Li Yide must have gotten the news, the army of Zhe Yuxun should also have rushed to the Wuding River, they should be able to resist Li Guangrui's crazy counterattack together, and then, panic and despair should spread in Li Guangrui's army, I hope they can seize the opportunity to completely defeat Li Guangrui, at this point, Li Guangrui should no longer have the power to return to heaven." I have to ...... I've got to get well as soon as possible, huh...... Maybe my people will come looking for me in a day or two, but what kind of place is this? ”

Thinking groggyly, a tiredness made his eyelids heavy again. Anyway, he knew that he had been saved, and he was ...... for the time being He's safe. With a wide heart, Yang Hao fell asleep again......※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ Jianma neighed, fell to the ground in a daze, and the horse's mouth was foaming at the mouth, seeing that it was not done. Fortunately, Zhou Nuying's riding skills were good, and she was not thrown out, but this night of galloping, her two soreness, the inner thighs seemed to have worn off the skin, and the fire was burning, and it took a lot of effort to jump away.

Xue'er in her arms cried all the way tired and tired, she was shaken like this and didn't wake up, she was still asleep, Nuying's heart was wide, she looked around, and staggered along the foot of the mountain.

Last night there was chaos in the city, the driver of her car was hit by an arrow, the car lost control and deviated from the brigade, and then the horse was hit by an arrow and ran wildly, only to be swept out of the southern city by the crowded refugees, and after leaving the city and running a long way, the horse ran out of strength, and no one hurried with a whip, so he walked slowly on the road. I didn't want to work hard for a long time, Li Jiyun's rebellious soldiers in the city were chased and killed by Ding Chengzong's men and horses, those soldiers were burning and looting in the city, and suddenly killed a 'Khitan' people and horses.

The soldiers who fled were in groups of three, in groups of two, and went their separate ways. Two of the soldiers fled south along the main road in a panic, and when they heard the hooves of the pursuers behind them thinning, they were relieved, and then they saw a carriage in front of them, and knew that it was the people who had escaped from the city, and saw that the carriage was gorgeous, and it was expected to be a rich family, and they suddenly became greedy again.

These soldiers scattered and didn't want to look for the main general to assemble, just wanted to grab some property and go their own way, naturally the more and more property looted, I didn't want the two soldiers to use torches to shine in the car, I didn't see the gold and silver jewelry, but saw a living beauty, they were afraid that they had never seen such a beautiful woman in their lives, they were overjoyed, carrying the gold and silver treasures snatched from the city, and there was a stunning beauty in front of them, and what kind of fucking fight, it was right to go and find a place to be happy.

The knight was about to come and rob people, and when Nuying saw the fierce and vicious appearance of the two warriors, she was already bluffed, where could she think of resisting, seeing that he reached out and grabbed it, she just sat there in a daze. Unexpectedly, the samurai saw at a glance that she was holding a child in her arms, but she was maliciously born, and she wanted to throw it out and die as soon as she snatched the child.

Nu Ying didn't think about it, the lost strength and flexible body suddenly returned to her body, and the "fox tail" wrapped around her wrist reached out like a snake, wrapped around Xue'er, who was crying and wow, rolled back to her side and hugged her, then leaned out of the car, and whipped it down again.

The female female tiger is powerful, it is really powerful, her whip is under the guidance of a famous teacher, there is already a bit of heat, and the small tree with thick wrists can also be broken by her whip, not to mention the whip, plus the whip shadow is difficult to distinguish in the night, the two soldiers are holding knives in their hands, but they can't deal with such a soft and hard, can be long or short, and the direction is also extremely tricky, one soldier was blinded in one eye, and fled in panic, but the other was wrapped around the neck by the whip and strangled to death.

Nuying killed someone, and she was also frightened and frightened, paralyzed on the ground and couldn't move, until Xue'er woke her up crying, and she didn't know how many enemy soldiers would chase after her, so she instinctively wanted to escape. Although she can't drive a car, she can ride a horse, the legacy of the Tang Dynasty, there are few wealthy ladies who can't ride a horse, so she tied Xue'er in her arms with a ribbon at the moment, and wanted to escape with the dead soldier's war horse.

Turning over the horse, she found that her dress was too eye-catching, so she had the courage to untie the robe of the dead soldier and put it on herself, which contained dry food, water bags, and robbed gold and silver, and was heavy, and she had no time to look at it for a while, and turned over the war horse, and then deviated from the official road and fled, until the horse ran alive at the foot of this unknown mountain.

Although Nuying can ride a horse, but she has never ridden such a fast horse, only tired and weak legs, she staggered for a while, hungry and thirsty really has no strength, then heard the sound of flowing water, my heart can't help but rejoice, turn the foot of the mountain, I saw a stream in front of me, so I ran to the river, drank water, washed my face, and then sat down by the river to rest.

Xue'er woke up hungry, opened her small mouth and cried again, crying while drilling into Nuying's arms, Nuying saw that her heart was sour, but she had no milk, how could she let the child feed, anxiously, she turned over her body indiscriminately, felt out a few steamed buns, and chewed the steamed buns to rot, and gave them to Xue'er to eat little by little.

Xue'er was used to eating milk, and at first she only hid her mouth around, but she was so hungry that she saw that there was really no sweet milk to eat today, so she had to cry a few times in protest, and then obediently gave in and ate the batter.

After feeding Xue'er, Nuying gnawed half a piece of steamed bun and couldn't eat it anymore, looking at the young child in her arms, and then thinking that Yinzhou had been lost, and the horses were tired to death, and she arrived in this wilderness, and she didn't know if she could walk out with a pair of legs, so she couldn't help but cry: "Hard-working baby, Godmother's life is hard enough, but I have lived a rich life for twenty years, why do you suffer so many ups and downs at a young age?" ”

Nuying pressed against Xue'er's little face, crying and saying a word, the more she cried, the more sad she became. At this time, Xue'er, who was ignorant of the world, had a full stomach, but she fell asleep sweetly in her arms. Nuying's heart was originally sad and panicked, but looking at the innocent little face in her arms, this lovely baby now depends on her to have a glimmer of life, and Nuying's heart suddenly gave rise to a sense of courage.

All along, she has to rely on the care of others, the beautiful and delicate Xiao Zhouhou is just a vine attached to men and power, her life path has to be arranged by others, her fate has to be at the mercy of others, and she is also used to this kind of life.

But this time is different, in her arms is a child who is not familiar with the world, her life and death are completely tied to Nuying, from watching her croaking to the ground, until today, the two have been together for the longest time, and her godmother's feelings for the child are by no means thinner than Xue'er's biological mother. The power of motherhood, no matter what, to keep the child's mind, made Nu Ying firm again, Qingteng became a small tree, and she had her own will and ideas.

"Xue'er, my godmother will definitely take you out and return it to your parents, definitely!"

Nuying kissed the child's little face gently, put her back in her arms, tied her belt tightly, and learned the way of the Yinzhou soldiers to march, tore off the strips of cloth from her clothes, wrapped the leggings on her calves, and continued along the river.

In the past few months in the northwest, she has somewhat understood a truth: "The water source on the grassland is very precious, so if you follow the water source, you will definitely find a place where humans live, and you can also find a way out!" ”

There is a vast expanse on all sides, either a wilderness or a high mountain, but Nuying is no longer hesitant, no matter how long the road lies ahead, as long as she still has a breath, she must go out. At this moment, her spine was straight.

But...... This stream is not very large, can you find a place for human life in front of you?
