It turned out that the hungry people were so hungry that they wanted to eat when they saw Zhang Biwu's war horse Wanhuhou. No, some strong hungry people came forward and said, "Slaughter his horses!" We'll all have to eat! One call: "Yes! Slaughter the horse! To eat! ”

Zhang Biwu was in a hurry, he hurriedly pushed aside all the hungry people, if someone tried to harm his horses in the past, he would have killed them all, but these are all hungry people, they are all the people he wants to protect as a soldier! His failure to defend the people of his land and make them suffer is the greatest shame in itself, how can he hurt them with a sword?

Zhang Biwu shouted: "Let go of my horse!" I'm going back to Lord Lu Zhitai to kill the Tartars! And the Marquis of Wanhu was obviously on fire, and its hooves rose up, so that the hungry people did not dare to approach it.

The hungry people also understood that Wanhu Hou was a fierce Humvee, and if he was allowed to run, none of them would be able to catch up! If it weren't for his owner, the horse would have run away without a trace.

When Zhang Biwu called out that he was Lu Zhitai's general, someone among the hungry people asked, "Is it Lord Lu Xiangsheng's subordinates?" ”

Zhang Biwu said loudly: "Yes! I am the soldier under the account of Lord Lu Xiangsheng! The hungry man shouted, "Brothers, we can't kill this master's horse!" Although there are only 10,000 people in Lu Xiangsheng's department, they are chasing the Tartars and want to drive them out of the Tartars! They are also like us, picking tree bark and digging grass roots to eat, but they have to face the fierce and cruel Tartars, but they are still fighting! Only Lu Xiangsheng's army is our army! ”

This voice was answered, and the hungry people all nodded, although they would drool when they saw Zhang Biwu's war horse, but they knew that Lu Xiangsheng's army itself was already short of food, but once it was captured in the battle with the Qing army, it was still given to them, although it was not much.

The problem is that Lu Xiangsheng's army has to eat tree bark and grass roots for this, but they are still thinking about the people. It is really unreasonable that such an army was framed by the powerful ministers and eunuchs, refused to pay them, let them go hungry, and took damaged weapons to fight against the Qing soldiers who were like wolves and tigers, waiting for work and eating enough!

The hungry people who were in front of Zhang Biwu all got out of the way, and they said, "Master Jun, you go!" You and your horses are fighting for us! You are protecting us, and we must be kind to you in the same way! Let's go! Kill more Tartars for us! ”

Zhang Biwu's eyes were full of tears, he knew that he understood, he hugged his fists and said: "Everyone, I will also drive away the Tartars when I spill my blood!" ”

Zhang Biwu jumped on the Marquis of Wanhu. "Drive!" Zhang Biwu slapped Wanhu Hou and ran forward.

His heart was bleeding, "For what?" Will I become like this? What must we do to save these people? The people are bitter, and when they die, the people are even more bitter! And how lovely they are! Just now in the ruined town, if they attack me, I and the Marquis of Wanhu will not be able to escape! They only because I am a member of Lu Xiangsheng's army! Alas! ”

At this moment, bursts of crying came! It's very bleak! The iron man also shed tears when he heard this. Zhang Biwu looked for prestige and saw a woman in front of a cauldron that had been erected, crying and boiling the body of a child.

"I'm sorry! Mother, I'm sorry for you! Daughter! The woman burst into tears, her body shaking violently, obviously she didn't want to do it, but she couldn't help it.

And her two children were lying beside the woman, each with their heads tilted, and they looked miserable and sad, but when they looked at the pot, they drooled, and could not bear the torment of hunger, and both children seemed to be so hungry that they could not move.

Zhang Biwu roared: "What are you doing!" Why do you want to do this! Zhang Biwu is here, "You are the most ruthless and vicious mother in the world!" ”

The woman, too, cried out in grief like a wounded beast: "Yes! I am the most vicious mother in the world! But what can be done? There's nothing to eat! The daughter is also dead, ...... dead"

She choked up and cried loudly, very sad, "Even if it is buried, the body will be dug up and ...... And look, I have two children who are dying of hunger! What can I do? ”

Saying this, Zhang Biwu was speechless, he didn't know how to face it. Zhang Biwu didn't dare to look at the woman, especially the woman's eyes, when he saw it, Zhang Biwu's heart was sour, and he was about to break. Zhang Biwu gritted his teeth and asked, "Doesn't the government help you?" ”

The woman cried, "The government helps us ordinary people? Master Jun, don't laugh! If the government does not come to collect taxes, it will already be a great favor to our people! And ask them to give them relief food? Impossible! ”

Zhang Biwu used to read the history of the late Ming Dynasty and read that Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty, had written to Chongzhen, playing the famine in Nanyang, Henan, and even the mother cooked his daughter for food.

Now that he saw it with his own eyes, he felt like something was choking on his heart, and there was a big stone in his heart that blocked his heart to death.

Then the woman said, "Do you know the word?" Officers and soldiers are more than bandits! Be! You're a military master! But I'm not afraid to say it! Because I am either going to starve to death or be killed by the Manchu Tartars! Or they will be killed by the officers and soldiers who have made good and risky contributions! In the end, you still don't let our people live! ”

asked one after another, leaving Zhang Biwu speechless. He didn't know what to do! He doesn't want to hear it! I don't want to see it either! His heart was in great pain.

He is a Ming official! Could it be that the Daming he wants to protect is such a Daming? No! The Daming he imagined to be protected should be a Daming who could make everyone happy, and such a tragic situation could be eliminated!

Although it has been more than two years since he came to the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is not the first time he has seen such a tragic situation, but every time he sees it, he can touch Zhang Biwu's heart and make Zhang Biwu extremely painful.

Zhang Biwu bowed deeply, then gritted his teeth, he actually knelt down! Zhang Biwu knelt down to a peasant woman: "I'm sorry! I can't protect you! I'll go back to the army of Lord Lu Zhitai now! Even the bark and grass roots are not eaten! Even if there is only one breath left, as long as my blood is not drained, I will fight to the death! ”

"Lu Xiangsheng's army?" The woman looked at him with a sparkle in her eyes. Zhang Biwu nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

A voice rang out: "Here comes the Tartars!" Run away, everyone! "Someone is running wild!" Tartars! "Zhang Biwu's eyes are about to burst into flames!

He was going to fulfill what he should do as a soldier, he jumped on the Marquis of Wanhu, and he looked at it, this was the Qing army's rangers, and the Qing army's rangers appeared around to reconnoiter the military situation.

Can't let these two rangers escape! The Ranger must have food on it! And maybe the money! In short, the two rangers must not be spared! Having their food can save even a hungry person, count it as a hungry person! Plus they are stepping on the land of the Ming Dynasty! This must not be tolerated!

"Drink!" Zhang Biwu shouted, and he met the two rangers. As soon as the two Qing army rangers saw Zhang Biwu's beautiful armor and a single person, according to experience, they guessed that Zhang Biwu might be a general who had escaped, or that it was a general of a defeated army who fled in all directions, which was very easy to deal with.

The two rangers decided that they were going to kill Zhang Biwu, and the two rangers rushed towards Zhang Biwu! It will be the biggest mistake of their lives!

"Whoosh" Zhang Biwu shot extremely fast! Because he shot in a fit of rage! These two shots knocked the two rangers off their horses.

When the two rangers died, their eyes were wide open, and they couldn't believe that Zhang Biwu's gun was so fast, and they couldn't see how Zhang Biwu shot at all. Zhang Biwu didn't want to let go of the two ranger horses, he wanted to stab the two horses to death, so that the hungry people could have something to satisfy their hunger. Naturally, the two war horses were stabbed to death by Zhang Biwu.

Zhang Biwu jumped off his horse to check if the two rangers were really dead, Zhang Biwu checked whether there was any food or money on them, and even the two war horses had to be checked.

When the hungry people saw Zhang Biwu assassinate the two rangers, they watched from a distance, and no one dared to step forward, because they saw Zhang Biwu assassinate the two of them in just a moment's effort, and they all went up, would it be dangerous? There are many people in the official army, but even the common people have been killed.

Zhang Biwu scavenged all the food and money, he wanted to give all this food and money to the mother of the tearful cooking girl! Zhang Biwu knew that her heart was like a knife!

Zhang Biwu looked around again at the hungry people who didn't dare to get closer, and he shouted: "Everyone! All right! Ladies and gentlemen, there are two horses here, and you can eat them with their meat! ”

As soon as Zhang Biwu finished speaking, he jumped on the Wanhu Hou, and he slapped the Wanhu Hou towards the woman. As soon as Zhang Biwu left, the hungry people quickly surrounded him, and they used knives to cut the meat of the war horses, and some of them wanted to set up stoves to cook. Of course, some of them also know that they need to be hidden, such as dried horse meat.

As soon as he arrived at the woman, Zhang Biwu threw the package to the woman and said, "That! Here's the food! Don't ......" he said any longer, "Goo! Cuckoo! "The stomach rang, Zhang Biwu didn't eat, naturally he was hungry.

Zhang Biwu smiled helplessly, then arched his fist and said, "Auntie! Take care! I'll go back to the army and kill the Tartars! ”

As soon as Zhang Biwu finished speaking, he slammed the Wanhu Hou and let the Wanhu Hou go towards the barracks! He's going back to the barracks!

The woman looked at his distant figure, and she picked up the package, which was heavy, and her eyes were full of tears. She thought of Zhang Biwu's stomach ringing, but she could imagine that Zhang Biwu was also hungry, but Zhang Biwu still gave her all the food. "Mother! I'm going to eat! As soon as her children heard that there was food, they all gathered together.

"Only Lord Lu Xiangsheng's army really thinks about our people! If only the officers and soldiers were like Lord Lu Xiangsheng! And the woman spoke the hearts of the people.
