Chapter 262: Traveling Through Time and Space 4
"Everyone must be careful and find a place to hide as soon as possible!" Zhang Xiaohu immediately became nervous.
He knew that the era in which Yan Dacang lived was an era of constant strife and killing. At that time, the social order completely collapsed, and the people had just been freed from the rule of feudal autocracy, but they were immediately caught in the melee of the warlords supported by the foreign powers.
Many historians are reluctant to talk about this tragic era.
These people of unknown origin are likely to be executed directly once they are captured by warlords and warlords everywhere.
Zhang Xiaohu still remembered that Yan Cannon said that he was fighting on the front line in Zhengzhou before he arrived in the Shuang Stack World, so if nothing else, this is near Zhengzhou.
In the Central Plains War, Zhengzhou, as the front-line command center of the anti-Chiang side, was a key place for the two sides to fight.
Around them, there should be more than 100,000 troops fighting each other. For these people, although it is a short stay, but if they are not careful, three days here are very dangerous.
From Yan Dacang's arrogant bandit style, we can see how loose the military discipline of the warlords in this period was.
The rain has not stopped, and the rain is extremely uncomfortable to fall on, but it is very conducive to them to hide. A dozen of them carefully identified it, and found a place where the gunfire was most scarce, trying to find a place to hide as soon as possible. After three days, you can leave safely, and hopefully you won't be found in those three days......
The area was originally good farmland, but after a long war, the fields were untended and full of weeds.
Judging from the nearby gunshots, the fighting continued, and on the muddy ground, many corpses could be seen, and the smell of decomposing corpses was in the air.
This smell Zhang Xiaohu is too familiar, in the double stack world, he has smelled this smell several times, and he is extremely impressed.
Suddenly, Zhao Zixuan picked up a spear covered with dirt on the ground, the body of the gun was already very dilapidated, and the butt was reinforced with thick strips of cloth.
"What are you doing picking up this garbage?" Zhang Xiaohu was puzzled that the "gun" was not much stronger than a wooden stick, and he was worried that the gun was simply a decoration and could not be fired at all.
Zhao Zixuan ignored Zhang Xiaohu, pulled the bolt of the gun by himself, and exclaimed in surprise: "Hey! Ay! There are still two bullets in it, and this time it's a good one! ”
"Boy, what do you want this gun for?" King Peter also asked curiously, this Zhao Zixuan is not a peaceful person, who knows how long his brain circuits are, and how he thinks things differently from others.
"You people don't have any sense of precaution!" Zhao Zixuan said: "We are bare-handed, and there is no guy to defend himself, in case he ......" Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen people saw two people rolling on the ground on the dirt ground opposite. As you can tell from their attire, the two should be in different camps.
"Lao Zhang, let's take care of it?" Zhao Zixuan whispered.
Zhang Xiaohu hesitated for a moment and said, "Since we have seen it, we can't ignore it, let's pull these two people away first!" ”
More than a dozen of them stepped forward, and it took a lot of effort to pull away the two people who were fighting. One of them lay on the ground and convulsed violently, and what he saw was about to die. The other quickly grabbed Master Wang next to him and put a bayonet across Master Wang's neck.
Because of the weather, the surrounding view was not ideal, and none of them noticed that one of them still had a bayonet in his hand.
There were still bright red blood stains on the blade of the bayonet, and five red blood flowers soon appeared on the chest of the man on the ground.
Zhao Zixuan hurriedly pointed the muzzle of the gun at the man with the knife, and shouted desperately: "Put down the knife!" Put down the knife! ”
Zhang Xiaohu looked at the person's appearance, surprisingly thin, and his narrow eyes flashed with a terrifying killing intent, this was the first time he had seen someone with such a strong killing intent, in that person's eyes, he seemed to be just some dying people, and there was no threat to him at all.
The man looked at Zhang Xiaohu coldly, and said, "You guys support Jiang?" ”
"What's the mess? We're just passing! Zhao Zixuan said: "You let go of Master Wang!" ”
The cold light in the man's eyes did not decrease, and the knife in his hand cut directly into Master Wang's skin, and the red blood immediately flowed out, and the man said viciously: "One for two, Lao Tzu is worth it!" ”
"Don't do it, don't do it, do you know Yan Cannon?" Zhang Xiaohu hurriedly shouted. Just now the man said that he supported Chiang, and he thought that this person might be on the anti-Chiang side, it might be the Northwest Army, it might be the Jin Army, and now it can only depend on their luck.
The man was stunned for a moment, and immediately said urgently: "How do you know the name of the eldest brother?" ”
Zhang Xiaohu took a long breath, his luck was really good, he hurriedly said: "Yan Cannon is my uncle, I have evidence!" He told Yan Dacang about some of the private things he had told him, and there were many things that Yan Dacang did with his cronies, and it was impossible for outsiders to know about them.
"Are you really the eldest nephew?" The man wondered, "Then you should know who I am?" ”
Zhang Xiaohu was a little worried, Yan Dacang didn't tell the information about the people around him, it's right to think about it, those brothers of his before were between soldiers and bandits, and their hands were stained with a lot of blood, which was really disgraceful, and it was not worth telling outsiders.
"I'm sorry this uncle, I really don't know your name!" Zhang Xiaohu said frankly.
The man laughed instead, put down the knife in his hand, and said to Master Wang guiltily: "This old brother, I was sorry just now!" He walked in front of Zhao Zixuan, snatched the gun over, flipped it over and patted the body of the gun hard, poured out some dirt from the muzzle, and said with a smile: "If you shot just now, your fingers must have been blown up now!" ”
Zhao Zixuan couldn't help but sigh: "This uncle, I wanted to shoot just now, but I was scared when I saw your eyes, I always felt that you could kill me before I could shoot!" ”
The man threw the gun back to Zhao Zixuan, walked in front of Zhang Xiaohu again, and said, "I know that the eldest brother will definitely not tell others the names of several of us, that is to protect us, it's normal for you not to know!" ”
He patted Zhang Xiaohu with a smile and said, "Where is the eldest brother?" I'm looking for him, but the brothers can't find him, they're all red-eyed, they've been staying nearby for three days, and if they don't leave, they'll be rounded up by Lao Jiang's people! ”
"Is there anyone else around here?" Zhao Zixuan looked left and right, because of the rain, he didn't find anything.
Suddenly, there was another burst of gunfire nearby.
The man hurriedly squatted on the ground and groped for a while, found some supplies, and then said, "Follow me, but don't be left behind!" ”
Zhang Xiaohu and others think that their physical fitness has been exercised very well, and their walking speed is also very fast, but compared to this person, their speed is really not worth mentioning.
The man's steps were fast and big, and he walked like a fly on the uneven ground, and led a dozen people behind him through two fields in a row, jumped into a ditch, and walked a few hundred meters in waist-deep sewage.
During this time, there was a pit viper hiding in the water in the pond, and the man grabbed seven inches of it, and then pulled it hard, resulting in his life, wrapped around his waist.
This neat technique directly stunned the people behind him.
Zhao Zixuan said in a speech: "Good girl, Lao Zhang, Uncle Yan, what are these people doing, why are they so powerful!" ”
"This is created by the environment, and you can also see how chaotic this era is, fighting every day and working hard, if you don't have some skills, you would have died a long time ago. Those who can survive have some ability! ”
As he spoke, the man suddenly stopped, made a stop gesture to the rear, and let out a few startled bird calls.
In the darkness on the other side, there was an immediate response, and someone made the same sound.
Zhang Xiaohu and the others then followed the man and climbed out of the ditch, and outside was a mud-filled house, and the loess rammed outer wall had collapsed.
From the outside, it was dark inside the outhouse, and there didn't seem to be any people.
A large head popped out of the house, and a teenage child soldier beckoned outside: "You found so many brothers? ”
After Zhang Xiaohu and the others approached, the baby soldier immediately became nervous, pulled out the pistol on his waist, and asked nervously, "Fourth brother, who are these people?" ”
"You turtle grandson! Doubt Lao Tzu, these are the friends of the big brother! I happened to meet them outside, bring them here first, and then go to the big brother together! The man said angrily.
The baby soldier scratched his big head and said aggrievedly: "How do I know what is inside, I always scold me!" ”
Looking at this young man who was not a few years older than himself, Zhang Xiaohu had mixed feelings in his heart, the young man looked malnourished, he was originally of school age, and he should have studied in school, but looking at the young man's face, he should have been in the army for a few years.
A few people walked into the earthen house, and there were six soldiers lying against the wall inside, all of them were black and thin, all of them listless, but the killing intent in their eyes was extremely strong, and when they saw Zhang Xiaohu and these people walking in, these people all straightened up vigilantly and grabbed their weapons in their hands......
"Don't be nervous, these are big brother's friends!" The man sat on the ground, threw the seized materials to the ground, and said, "There is only some fried rice, let's eat one bite, there is a long worm here, we can fight tooth sacrifices!" ”
"Are you all Uncle Yan's brothers?" Zhang Xiaohu looked at everyone and asked.
A square-faced man with a dark and thin face took a bite of fried rice, waited for bloodshot eyes and asked, "Where is the eldest brother?" Still alive? Why didn't he come to us? ”
"Uncle Yan is in a special place and can't come back for the time being, but don't worry, his life is not in danger! He asked me to tell you to live well, and he buried two gold bars in the back wing, one for his mother and one for you! Zhang Xiaohu looked at everyone and relayed. Zhang Xiaohu knew that at this time, he had to first calm the emotions of these people, and gain their trust, and then delay time.
