This was the first snow in the winter of Chongzhen's second year.

At first, it was just a slight snow foam, and it fell from the sky, falling on the face with a slight chill, and disappearing instantly when it fell to the ground.

Then the snow foam turned into snowflakes and fluttered in the air like catkins.

The snowflakes grew bigger and bigger, and gradually became like goose feathers, staining the mountains, covering the forests, and covering the bloodstained ground, as if covering all the sins of the world, leaving only the heaven and the earth holy.

But there are some things that even heavy snow can't hide, such as the villages that are still burning, such as the people who are wading through the mountains and fields all the way south.

There were almost no men in the crowd, not even older boys, only women and children.

Some time ago, she was still a pampered lady of the Eight Banners, with a carriage for travel, and a slave and maid to support her when she walked, but now she was unkempt and walked in the snow with difficulty. Many were also holding small babies and holding older girls. Walking slowly, a whip came at him.

It was the Guiyi soldiers who watched over them, and they were also the former cloths of their family, once docile as dogs, but now as fierce as wolves!

These bannermen and ladies wept and staggered towards their unpredictable fate.

From Hetuara to Kuandian, from Kuandian to Zhenjiang Fort, from Zhenjiang Fort to Phi Island, there are at least thousands of miles of mountain roads. In this cold winter with heavy snowfall, I don't know how many people will make it to Phi Koh alive.

For them, fate is so unfair, and the Ming army is so hateful, but all this is just the reincarnation of heaven.

They wouldn't have thought that their husbands and sons were doing the same thing in the Ming Dynasty, this winter, how many Ming people would be killed by their husbands and sons, how many innocent Ming people would be plundered to Liaodong, hundreds of thousands of plundered Ming people, and how many people would die tragically on the road to Liaodong?

And this is only the first time that the Eight Banners have broken through the border wall to invade, in another time and space, before the Ming Dynasty fell, there were as many as five such invasions! Every time hundreds of people died tragically, every time countless villages and towns were killed and plundered, and every time it was a tragedy!

In the five invasions of the Eight Banners, Gyeonggi, Xuandae, Beizhili, and even most of Shandong were almost empty, and the entire north was almost in ruins. And this is Huang Taiji's strategy of continuing to bleed Daming, weakening Daming's strength while strengthening Jiannu himself!

Relying on the population wealth plundered from the Ming Dynasty, the strength of Jiannu has grown rapidly, the weapons and armor have been qualitatively leaped, and a huge number of Hongyi cannons have been cast, completely crushing the Ming army in terms of weapons and equipment. Relying on the wealth and population plundered from the Ming Dynasty, Jiannu formed an army of Han Eight Banners and Meng Eight Banners that was no less numerous than the Eight Banners, which made the Eight Banners several times stronger and made up for the biggest defect of the insufficient number of bannermen.

Under the continuous bloodletting strategy of Jiannu, the Ming Dynasty became weaker and weaker, unable to resist the invasion of Jiannu, and did not even have the strength to suppress the peasant rebellion.

Of course, the two countries are fighting each other, and they are doing everything they can, and it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong. Then, you can't blame Daming for using the same means on them. Therefore, these banner people, women and children, have nothing to complain about, it's just the reincarnation of heaven!

In the southward procession, there were not only banner people, women and children, but also a large number of Han people, the original clothed slaves.

Different from the time when they waited for the master of the bannerman, now these former coats have straightened their waists, wearing robbed fur hats, sitting in the carriage that originally belonged to the master, eating jerky, and looking very comfortable.

Of course, whether it is really comfortable or not, only they know. On such a snowy day, trekking thousands of miles through the mountain road will not be easy for anyone.

In fact, on the second day of entering the mountainous area, many people regretted leaving Tuncun a little.

If all the banner people have migrated away, why should the Han people be moved away? In the big winter, isn't it good to let everyone spend this winter in Tuncun?

There are also people who regret that their heads are hot and they rebel, and they serve as coats for the banner people, at least they can live, and they can't starve to death if they don't have enough to eat, but when they return to the Ming Dynasty, where can they go to live, and how will the court settle themselves?

Many people have heard of Phi Dao and know that it is a desert island where birds don't, and many people are scared to think about living on such a desert island.

But it's come to this, and it's useless to regret it!

The member of the Praetorian Guard surnamed Lei made it clear that whoever disobeyed was a spy of Jiannu, and he would be killed!

That Li Yangeng was even more like a hungry wolf, with a group of cavalry patrolling everywhere, his eyes were red, and when he saw the village, he set fire to the village, and the houses were all set on fire, leaving him without even a place to live.

Besides, the entire Jianzhou Wei banner people were almost killed and plundered, once the Eight Banners army came back, those who stayed could still have good fruits to eat?

Willingly or unwillingly, there is no turning back for everyone!

Erdaoliangzi, Ma Guizheng and Li Yan said goodbye.

"Brother Li Yan, don't you really want to stay, how happy it is for our brothers to go to Shenyang together?" Ma Gui persuaded.

Li Yan sighed: "I want to join you too, but what about the yellow-faced woman and a few little cubs?" I'm afraid they won't make it to Phi Koh alive. ”

Ma Gui shook his head slightly, this Li Yan said the day before yesterday that he didn't care about the ugly woman who Jiannu stuffed him, but now he gave up his future for the ugly woman and the children born to the ugly woman. If you stay and follow the Guiyi camp to Shenyang, you can grab a lot of property, not to mention, maybe you can mix up an official and a half-job, and what future will you have when you take your family to Phi Island?

When Ma Gui wanted to persuade again, he was interrupted by Li Yan.

"Brother Ma Gui, I keep asking you, have you been in contact with the official army for a long time?" Li Yan stared at Ma Gui's eyes and asked.

This Ma Gui is not obvious on weekdays, but the day before yesterday he was so decisive! Although Li Yan quarreled fiercely with Yang Zhong, he had no intention of killing Yang Zhong, after all, everyone was a brother.

And Ma Gui smiled and grinned, but he turned his hand and used a knife at Yang Zhong, which made Li Yan shudder.

Everyone voted for the Guiyi Battalion, Li Yan was just an ordinary soldier, and Ma Gui suddenly became the chief flag officer of the Guiyi Battalion, how could there be no catliness among them?

"So far, I won't hide it from you, brother, I still have an identity, a secret spy of Jinyi Wei." Ma Gui said with a smile.

Li Yan was taken aback: "We have been together all these years, when did you join Jinyiwei?" ”

Ma Gui shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It can't be regarded as a real Jinyiwei, it's just secretly helping Jinyiwei do things, and it was only a year ago that he became a secret agent." Brother Li Yan, you should know that I have a sister who is alive and married to Liaoxi. Just a year ago, someone suddenly found me with my sister's handwritten letter, and then I became a secret spy ...... Jinyiwei."

"I see." Li Yan finally understood.

"Take care all the way, brother, it's time for our brothers to meet again!" Ma Gui arched his hand and rode away.
