Chapter Forty-Nine: Leave the remnants to listen to the rain

"Brother, where is this?"

"It's Huai Si Ao."

"Oh, Huai Siao, I've been walking for so long, why can't I see half a figure? If we can't find any more people or villages, I'm going to starve to death. ”

"Hey, after so many years of fighting here, where will there be anyone? Cun? Villages and towns were either destroyed or deserted. ”

"Well, the Hulu can't die well!"

"Hu Lu should be cut with a thousand cuts, but they... Hum... They're no better. ”

"What do you mean by my brother?"

"In the troubled times, there are many thieves, many of them are still officers and soldiers who have turned into thieves, and they have robbed the people, even more ruthless than Hu Lu."

About ten miles away from the northwest of Guangling County, there is a place name, called Huai Si Ao.

Huaisi Pass has many mountains, many rivers and many forests, lush and green, the scenery is quiet, people live here, just like a paradise. The war between Yan and Xia for many years, the devastation of the war, has already destroyed the beautiful scenery of Huaisi Ao, the people of Huaisi Ao died to death, fled and fled, and those who did not die did not escape hid in the deep mountains and old forests.

On this day, on a small road in Huaisiao, four or five soldiers came who did not look like soldiers, and the people did not look like the people, saying that they were soldiers, but they were wearing the clothes of ordinary people, tattered, as if they were called flowers, saying that they were people, but they were carrying knives and guns.

"Huh? Not good! ”

The so-called Cao Cao, Cao Cao, these soldiers are not like soldiers, and the people are not like the people When they were talking about thieves, a flying stone suddenly flew out of the woods, and with a "bang", one person was knocked to the ground, and the other four people suddenly panicked and held knives and guns, looking around nervously.

"Whoosh... Sou... Whoosh..."

In an instant, stones flew out of the woods, smashing at the four of them, and the trees were also ghostly, like people and beasts, walking between the trees.

"Mom!"

The four of them could not tell whether these shadows were humans or beasts, or mountain mandrills, so they shouted in fright, turned and ran back, ignoring their injured and fallen companions.

After the four escaped, more than a dozen people jumped out of the forest, all wearing animal skins, first knocked the injured and fallen people unconscious with a stick, and then searched on their bodies, but they searched and looted, but they found nothing, and everyone's faces showed a look of great disappointment.

The wounded man had neither money nor food on him, and the only thing of value was probably one of his inferior spears.

A man in animal skins picked up an inferior spear and placed it horizontally in his hand, scrutinizing it.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the sound of the feather arrow breaking through the air suddenly sounded, and an arrow flew, not only the accuracy was excellent, but also the strength was great, and the arrow hit the tip of the inferior spear in the hand of the "orc", and the sparks splashed everywhere, and the inferior spear in the hand of the "orc" fell to the ground.

A group of "orcs" were suddenly startled, and hurriedly turned their heads to look, only to see a man jumping out of the forest, the horse was a white horse, and a young red-robed general was riding on the white horse.

"Who are you? Hurry up and catch it, otherwise Hugh blames a certain arrow for being ruthless! The young red-robed general pointed at the group of "orcs" and shouted, and then another arrow was shot and nailed to the trunk of the tree, and the tail of the arrow trembled and "buzzed".

The young red-robed general is indeed merciful to his subordinates with such a magic arrow, otherwise someone from the "orcs" will be dead here.

The "orcs" were frightened and wanted to escape, but they were surrounded by men with knives and guns.

"The general spares his life, we are people from Meiyu Village, Huaisiao, the village was burned by the Hu people, so I hid in the mountains, I couldn't bear the hunger, so I came out to find some food and drink." The "orcs" were helpless and frightened, so they had to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"Well, get up, what's your name?" The young red-robed general was not bad, so he showed mercy to his subordinates, so he pointed to an "orc" and asked.

"Little Wang Fushun." Wang Fushun stood up and replied, "The general's name? Be... Be... Which way? ”

The red-robed generals who surrounded him were densely packed with soldiers and horses, at least as many as a thousand people.

"Hedong Min Takehiko." Min Wuyan, the red-robed general, glanced at his subordinates and replied, "We are the rebels in Hedong, Hebei and other places. ”

Min Wuyan, who was in his early twenties, was a native of Yang County, Hedong County, and when he was a teenager, he liked to read books such as "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period", "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Wu Zi's Art of War", "Liutao", etc., and worshipped famous teachers and practiced martial arts.

Xianbei Iron rode and drank horses in the Central Plains, the mountains and rivers were broken, and Min Wuyan, who was only 16 years old at the time, was angry and surrendered, and successively threw himself under the command of the general Sima Qin and the general Hou Zong.

Although the sixteen-year-old Min Wuyan was young, he was brave and good at fighting, and was soon promoted to a partial colonel in the army.

The rank is the last grade, but it finally has a grade.

Xia Zhechong's general Hou Zong led the army north to reinforce Guangling County, but was defeated by Murong Bolie, Hou Zong was killed in battle, and his troops were also scattered. Min Wuyan led some soldiers and horses to fight against the Yan army in Hedong, Hebei and other places, and at this time Guangling County was in danger, Min Wuyan recruited more than 2,000 villagers to come to help in the war.

"Do you know the situation in Guangling County?" Min Wuyan then asked Wang Fushun.

"I don't know the specific situation." Wang Fushun shook his head when he heard this: "However, the little ones also went to the vicinity of Guangling County a few days ago to ask for food, and saw that the Hulu army was overwhelming, so the small guess is that the situation in Guangling County is really not good." ”

"Well, would you like to join the army?" Min Wuyan nodded and asked again. Min Wuyan then glanced worriedly in the direction of Guangling County.

As soon as Guangling County is lost, Jiangbei will be opened, and the Xia court will be in danger, but Min Wuyan is just a nine-rank small martial minister, and the number of soldiers and horses he leads is not only small, but also patchwork, how can he be the opponent of Yan Tieqi? More than 300,000 Xia Sanlu reinforcements were defeated by the Yan army, not to mention Min Wuyan and others with more than 2,000 rabble?

Min Wuyan and the others came bravely, but when they were about to arrive in Guangling County, they didn't know what to do.

"This..."Wang Fushun said after thinking for a moment when he heard this: "The little ones are used to being wild, but they can't be soldiers." ”

"Hmm..." Min Wuyan turned his head and said to Hong Wuji, who was in the army, "Take some food for them." ”

The Xia army was defeated in a row, not only the morale of the Xia army was low, but the Xia people were also the same, with no morale and no confidence, Wang Fushun and others were unwilling to join the army or send them to death, and Min Wuyan did not force them.

"Military master, this..."Hong Wuji, who joined the army in the volunteer army, said hesitantly when he heard this: "Military rations... The food is exhausted..."

Hong Wuji escaped death, and happened to meet Min Wuyan who had returned from his injuries, so he joined Min Wuyan's command, because he was literate and hyphenated, so he temporarily joined the army as a record in Min Wuyan's army.

"Give it to them!" Min Wuyan's face sank and he said, "Didn't I come here for the sake of the people?" How can you watch them starve to death? ”

Hong Wuji had no choice but to order someone to give them some of the small amount of food.

Wang Fushun and the others also went with a thousand thanks.

"Order the whole army to rest on the spot, go to the horses to find out the news, and then go and come back from hunting some wild things." After Min Wuyan gave the order, he turned over and dismounted, leaning against a big tree and closing his eyes to recuperate.

But after Min Wuyan closed his eyes, he was in a mood, so he opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Guangling County.

"What is the Lord worried about? But what about Guangling County? Hong Wuji asked, sitting next to Min Wuyan.

Min Wuyan saved Hong Wuji, who was helpless, called every day, and called the earth and the earth to be ineffective, and Hong Wuji was of course grateful to him.

"What about Guangling County?" Min Wuyan sighed when he heard this: "My Great Xia is in danger! ”

"Don't worry, military master!" Hong Wuji heard the words and comforted: "As the saying goes, there is no endless road to heaven, and my life in Great Xia should not be extinct." ”

"Huh? What do you mean by that? Min Wuyan asked.

"Hu Lu is brutal, burning, killing, and plundering, it is outrageous, my Daxia soldiers and civilians all have the heart to fight to the end, and the thieves will be taken away by the sky sooner or later!" Hong Wuji gritted his teeth and cursed, then said: "Wuji heard that Zhang Huchen, the general of the auxiliary state, has gathered troops on the south bank of the river, so the time for the army to counterattack is not far away!" ”

"Well, that makes sense!" Hearing such exciting words, Min Wuyan's spirits lifted slightly, and after glancing at Hong Wuji, he asked, "The meaning of the eastern neighbor, can't I wait and not help Guangling County at this moment?" ”

Hong Wuji, surnamed Hong Wuji, the word is eastern.

"Yes!" Hong Wuji had been trying to persuade Min Wuyan to give up reinforcing Guangling County, but he finally found an opportunity at this moment, so he nodded and said: "Hu Yu is powerful, Guangling County has been holding on for four months, and the fall is inevitable, so the military master should not go to death again." ”

In fact, Hong Wuji also wanted to go to Guangling County, and when he went to Guangling County, maybe he could see the beautiful Hu Nu again, and it would be good to take a second look, but intellectually he was not allowed to do so.

"Sent to death?" Hearing this, Min Wuyan squinted at Hong Wuji and said, "Even if he is sent to death, how can Min be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?" ”

Hong Wuji suddenly rushed up in anger when he heard this, and said loudly: "If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about these two thousand living people, right?" Lacking food and clothing, and lacking and simple weapons, how can they be Hulu's opponents? Going forward so recklessly is no different from sending them to death! ”

"Humph!" Min Wuyan was speechless, and could only snort coldly.

"War master, leave the remnants to listen to the sound of the rain..."Hong Wuji persuaded again: "When the general of the auxiliary country counterattacks, it will be the day of our revenge." ”

Hong Wuji's whole family was killed by the Hu people, of course, he hated the Hu people to the core, especially the Han thief, Zhou Fugui...

"But... But... Min..."What Hong Wuji said was reasonable, but Min Wuyan came bravely and gave up like this, but he was unwilling to let Guangling County fall into the hands of Xianbei people, but he couldn't bear it, so after hesitating for a long time, he nodded and agreed.

"Donglin, the person who harmed your whole family, is it really surnamed Zhou's name and wealth?" After a long time, Min Wuyan suddenly asked.

Min Wuyan had already learned from the host of Longtan Temple that the person who saved him was Zhou Fugui.

"It's him, and even if he turns to ashes, I know him." Hong Wuji gritted his teeth and replied.

"The military master, the military master, there is a Hulu cavalry army down the mountain!" At this moment, a scout horse hurried to report.
