"Old man, why are you bothering? You have sons and grandchildren, don't you want to be with them anymore?"

The old village chief lay on the ground and explained in a respectful tone that the Houjin side had already ordered that the strong men of the village would flee and that the village chief would be executed. If the whole village escapes, the coffin of the villager's ancestral grave will be opened as a punishment. The village chief protects the graves of his ancestors, so he begs Huangshi to let him stay, so as to give the Later Jin regime an object to vent his anger.

"The grass people don't have a few days to live. ”

The other old men also knelt on the ground and said, "General, the graves of our ancestors are all here, the village is gone, and no one will go to the grave to sweep the grave, we must at least leave the grave, and when the king comes back, let the children have a place to make incense." ”

"Please take care of our children and grandchildren. A dozen old men kowtowed and shouted together.

The surrounding villagers all stopped what they were doing and looked here, and many soldiers also showed unbearable looks.

Huang Shi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly said loudly: "In this case, I don't want you to move." ”

He shouted at the hundreds of villagers, "I'll leave soon, you all stay." ”

The village chief raised his head in surprise: "But the general has a military order. ”

"Outside, there is no military order. Huang Shi looked up to the sky and laughed, and his heart suddenly brightened: "I am a Ming general, I can't defend the land and the people, how can I be strong?"

"Let's go. Huang Shi waved his hand and said to go.

The village chief sent forty stone of grain and five pigs, and Huang Shi ordered that only twenty stone of grain be taken - if he didn't take anything, he would not be able to explain to his subordinates.

After leaving, Jin Qiude secretly asked, "My lord, I am worried that these people will hold a grudge against our army and put the account of the old man's death on our heads. ”

"Not bad. Huangshi sighed.

Zhao Slowxiong also saw an opportunity and asked Huang Shi privately: "Do you think that two or three hundred stones of grain is not much, so it is better to use it to buy the hearts of the people?"

"Not bad. ”

Yang Zhiyuan also took advantage of the fact that no one was around: "Do you pity those old people, do you want our army to suffer at all than let the people suffer?"

"Not bad. ”

Only He Baodao shouted loudly: "As an adult, of course my Ming Dynasty must protect the territory and the people, and even more so, we must counterattack Liaodong as soon as possible." ”

"General--General stays. The army walked two miles in a bit of a frustration, and shouts came from behind, and Huangshi turned around and stopped for a while, and saw four or five men chasing after him with torches.

For an old man he had just seen, he came out of breath, knelt on the ground and began to kowtow again--the civilians seemed to have only this kind of etiquette when they saw the official body, and the old man asked breathlessly: "Dare to ask the general's surname?"

Out of secrecy, Huang Shi ordered the soldiers not to leak his name, so no one in the village knew his name. Just when he hesitated, the old man added: "The general is noble, and the whole village feels the same virtue, and dares to ask the general to leave his name, so as to pray for the general." ”

"Ha, pray for me?" Huang Shi burst out laughing when he heard this—don't lie so fakely, he asked the old man, "Aren't you afraid that Jiannu will slaughter the whole village?"

The old man knelt on the ground and did not defend, but pointed to the four young men behind him: "General, these children must go with the general, we will treat them as dead, and tomorrow the village will dig a grave for them." ”

"So ......" Huang Shi looked at these people for a while, and understood that the village wanted to secretly set up an immortal card for himself, and there were inextricable relatives in a village, and if the news of these four people leaked out, the whole village would be unlucky.

In this way, Huangshi will not be able to live up to the kindness of these hard-working people, he groaned for a while and said loudly: "This general is the commander of Liaodong, the Dongjiang guerrilla, and the immortal governor Huangshi. ”

"General Huang!" several villagers shouted together, and this sudden shout made Huang Shi startled.

Several villagers showed expressions of disbelief at the same time, and the old man asked in a trembling voice, "The general is General Huangshi Huang of Guangning?"

When the officers and soldiers around them heard this, they all immediately puffed up their chests, and their faces showed an invincible expression.

Huang Shi didn't know that his name was already so loud, he replied with a smile: "It is this general, and now he is serving under the account of Mao Wenlong, the general of Pingliao. ”

"I have heard for a long time that the general is loyal and righteous, and his martial arts are world-famous, and today I can see the general's respectful face, which is really the virtue of the old ancestors. The old man's expression was stern, and he said respectfully: "These children can follow the general, what a blessing for them." ”

Huang Shi turned his gaze to the four young men: "What's your name?"

The four of them looked at each other a few times, and suddenly one of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed - kowtowed again: "The villain has no name and no surname, and he dares to ask General Huang to be included in the mansion." ”

The other three also woke up suddenly and kowtowed a few times together: "The villains also have no name or surname, and they are willing to join the Huang family as slaves, please take them in by the general." ”

The old man nodded again and again when he heard this: "General Huang, they are already dead people in their ancestral hometown." ”

Huang Shi was stunned and speechless, and several people thought that he didn't agree, so he shouted again: "The villains are cows and horses, and they have no words." ”

While he was talking, two more men came with an ox and a donkey, with a few farm implements and large bales of hay on their backs, and they waited beside them when they saw this posture.

Zhao Slowbear rubbed behind him and whispered to Huang Shi: "My lord, my subordinates think it's good." ”

"Okay, you are from my Huang family. Yellowstone nodded.

The four of them still didn't get up: "Please give the name of the head of the house." ”

This change made Huang Shi feel that he was the boss, and modern education made him very uncomfortable with this kind of scene, and he couldn't even think of four names at once.

Fortunately, Zhao Slowxiong relieved him again, and immediately said four names in Huang Shi's ear: "Huang Da, Huang Er, Huang San, Huang Si, according to age." ”

That's okay? It's a joke, isn't it? Huang Shi hesitated and said to the four family members who came to the door.

Unexpectedly, the four of them cheered together, and they were grateful: "The little people have thanked the master of the house." ”

The old man showed his mutilated teeth, smiled and said to the next generation, "You are really blessed." ”

The two villagers who came with their cattle also congratulated each other, and the old man explained that the village was very small, so this was the only way to honor the royal court.

Huang Shi thanked him, ordered the cattle to be pulled, and left with the four young men - "I still don't know enough about the Ming Dynasty and feudal society. ”

This time, Huangshi brought 300 soldiers because he was afraid that there would be too many things and not enough manpower, so he worked hard all night and brought back very little things. However, the army grew more and more aggressive on the way home, as if it had won a great victory.
