Volume 8: The Mystery of the Ancient Tomb is chaotic life and death, and the people of today are clever and enmity Chapter 31 of Volume 8: Oath not to stand apart

Qingyan Military Town, located in the southernmost part of Yizhou, is also the most important military town on the border of Daqin and Miaojiang.

The unique "military cantonment system" of the Great Qin border army is implemented here, also known as the guard system. The world is divided into two kinds of household registration, military households and civilian households, and there is no difference between them in peacetime, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, and farming on the spot; And once the flames of war broke out, the military households turned into soldiers and quickly participated in the war.

The military cantonment system has three major advantages - first, it can stabilize the number of troops, mobilize quickly in wartime, and the speed of requisition and deployment can be called superb, which is enough to cope with the rapidly changing situation on the border; Second, the integration of soldiers and peasants, and all the grain from the military cantonment was supplied to the army, which greatly reduced the burden of the state in raising soldiers; Third, it avoids the huge loss of grain when starting a war, and can save more money and grain. This system has been in place for 100 years and is considered perfect to this day.

At this moment, it is almost noon, it is a good time to work, but the farmland outside Qingyan Military Town is empty, and on the official road at the edge of the field, a sign is erected, and the words on the sign are as red as blood.

War.

General Zhou, the leader of the Qingyan Army, issued an order for the general assembly today, and all the military households had gone to the barracks, and the air was a little stagnant due to the murderous atmosphere.

Inside the barracks main tent.

"Smack!" A wooden box was smashed to the ground by the general Zhou Lijin, and all the generals in the tent were shocked, feeling Zhou Lijin's anger, everyone didn't even dare to breathe.

The wooden box was shattered, the bones rolled out of a human head, and the deceased was wearing a square scarf with a shocked expression, obviously not thinking that the other party would dare to do it to him when he was dying.

Someone had already recognized who it was—it was the messenger who had been sent to deliver the message to Qianhu Miao Village yesterday.

"Time is in a hurry, there is a lot of negligence, a small return gift, not a respect. The next visit, and Jiang. The head of the thief is sent to see the sincerity of my Miao Jiang. Zhou Lijin finished reading in a deep voice, and then looked around at the generals:

"This morning, this wooden box and this sentence were delivered from outside the gate."

What a rampant seedling! When the people in the tent heard this, they were all furious.

Zhou Lijin stood up:

"These seedlings have beheaded our messengers, and they are so provocative; The spies came with the news that Jiang Qincha had been trapped in the mountains by them; The Miao Jiang barbarians poured out of the nest, and there were enough 20,000 Chen soldiers in the thousands of Miao villages, and now I want to ask the princes a word——"

"Where is my Great Qin Xiongshi!"

"Here!" A thousand presidents with a full face and beard took the case:

"General, let me lead the troops to level their thousands of Miao villages!"

Zhou Lijin nodded approvingly, and then looked at the rest of the generals:

"The commander of Yizhou has already known about this, and he has just sent an order, Qingyan Military Town, the whole army will attack!"

"Yes!" The generals took the orders and left.

Half an hour later, the barracks square.

Zhou Lijin, dressed in battle armor, rode his horse to the front of the army.

The swords in the hands of the soldiers shone with a dazzling light, and the war horses under their crotches couldn't stop snorting, as if they couldn't wait.

Zhou Lijin pulled out his waist knife and pointed his blade due south:

"Let's go!"

The army roared like a beast that had just woken up from its slumber.

A full 5,000 elite soldiers rushed towards the thousand Miao villages.

…………

At the same time, thousands of Miao villages.

Under a big tree, Xiao Nian and Ah Kang of Langde Village sat side by side.

Xiao Nian grabbed Akang's hand:

"Akang, I'm so bored."

Akang nodded:

"Since they came to Qianhu Village, Elder Bai and they have been discussing things, and they don't know when the Central Plains people will call, which makes everyone very nervous...... Hey, didn't you say you went to find the Meila fortune teller? What do you think? What did you figure out? ”

At the mention of this, Xiao Nian was a little unhappy:

"I have long heard that the eyebrows of their Qianhu Village are the most accurate, who knew that I went to look for her, and she actually said that she was not a hexagram."

Ah Kang frowned:

"I heard that this eyebrow has been calculated for decades, how could it be all of a sudden?"

Xiao Nian pouted:

"That's what I thought, too, so I asked her when she didn't count, and she said it started yesterday...... Hmph, it's clear that I just don't look down on our Langde Village, and it's really boring to make these excuses. ”

Ah Kang was relieved:

"Okay, okay, let's not bother with her."

"But it's really boring to keep waiting like this......" Xiao Nian raised her head and sighed, and then her eyes rolled:

"Huh? Akang, did you just say that my grandfather and they have been discussing things? Shall we eavesdrop? ”

"Huh? This, isn't this okay? "Akon was a little embarrassed.

Xiao Nianbai glanced at him:

"Coward, if you don't go, I'll go by myself."

After saying that, she got up and left, Ah Kang was stunned for a moment, and then followed step by step.

Walking to the old house of Elder Wu in the center of the Thousand Miao Village, Xiao Nian observed, and then went around to the back of the stilted building.

Ah Kang felt in his heart that he should pull Xiao Nian back, but Xiao Nian hooked his finger at him, and his feet moved as if he didn't obey the call.

Xiao Nian waved his palm, signaling Ah Kangfu to lower his body and step on it.

Ah Kang picked up Xiao Nian's feet and stood up, Xiao Nian stood on tiptoe, just in time to see the house.

The next moment, Ah Kang below only felt a shock on his shoulder, and Xiao Nian fell down suddenly, he was shocked, and after catching Xiao Nian, he said in a low voice:

"Xiao Nian, what's wrong?"

Xiao Nian's face turned pale, his lips trembled slightly, he was stunned for a moment, and then buried his face in Ah Kang's arms and cried.

Ah Kang patted her on the back, and after a while, Xiao Nian raised his head:

"More than a dozen people, all dead!"

Ah Kang naturally knew about what Jiang Sheng and the others had done in the village before, and he whispered with relief:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, wait until we kill the Central Plains robbers to avenge the thousands of Miao villages."

Xiao Nian shook his head desperately:

"No, no, it's not the one who died before, it's just dead! I—I saw Amin, and they were all disemboweled, and they were bleeding......"

Amin! Isn't this our Langde Village? Ah Kang's heart was shocked, and he lost his voice:

"What?"

At the same time, Elder Wu scolded from the stilted building above his head:

"The Central Plains dog thieves deceive people too much, and I don't share the sky with them! Well? Who's eavesdropping, get out! ”

Hearing that someone was killed in Langde Village, Ah Kang couldn't care about anything else, so he pulled a small thought:

"Let's go up."

Then the two walked briskly up to the stilted building, pushed open the door, and Ah Kang bowed his head and said respectfully:

"It's Luo Kang and Bai Nian of Langde Village."

Elder Wu turned his head to look at Elder Bai, who nodded:

"My granddaughter and grandson-in-law, Akang is very good at martial arts, you can let him take a look."

Elder Wu said come in, Ah Kang and Xiao Nian walked in, and when they walked into the living room, Xiao Nian screamed and shrank into Ah Kang's arms.

Ah Kang naturally saw the scene in front of him, and after just one glance, he was furious and filled with righteous indignation.

The long table in the center of the parlor had been removed, and sixteen bloody corpses were lined up.

Among them, there are men and women, old and young, and through the costumes, Akang judged that they happened to be from the sixteen villages of Miaojiang.

The corpses were all disemboweled, blood and internal organs flowed, spilled all over the ground, and the smell of blood rushed to the mouth and nose, like hell on earth.

The expressions of the dead were all very painful, and even some of their facial expressions were convulsed and deformed, Ah Kang had practiced martial arts for many years, and immediately understood what was going on - after the Central Plains people caught them, they actually cut open their bellies alive and took out their internal organs, they did not bleed to death, but died of pain!

Ah Kang then saw that the faces of the deceased were carved with sharp blades, one on each person's face, and they were connected to form a sentence.

After seeing this sentence, Akang's face changed drastically, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling at this moment, he believed that everyone here had the same idea as himself: only by killing all the Central Plains people who came to commit crimes could we wash away the shame of our Miao Jiang!

These sixteen words spread out like a plague, one spread to two, two to four, faster and faster, more and more widely, but in an instant, the noisy Miao Village was silent.

In the silence, a monstrous anger began to ignite.

Because everyone heard the same words:

"Fanbang Miao Yi, whoever does not obey the king, will make an example of him."
