In fact, when he was in the mountain village last night, Qin Chong didn't have much bad feeling for this dog. A bandit, but he was very concerned about the safety of a woman, so he left Qin Chong and ran away directly. If a person still has compassion in his heart, how bad can he be?

Now that I know the reason why he fell into the grass, I can't help but feel sorry.

It seems that it has become a profession in the Great Song Dynasty. Whether it is the people or the army, they were forced to occupy the mountain as the king, and now there are as many as cows. Even to say an exaggerated word, where there is a mountain, there are people who open a mountain and set up a village; Where there is a water, there are strongmen who occupy it.

Helpless, the world does not let people live. The land of the common people was occupied by the powerful and reduced to tenants who worked day and night, but they could not support the family. There are even more factions in the army, suppressing dissidents by unscrupulous means, deducting military salaries, and killing people at every turn. What is not?

Interestingly, the officers and soldiers rarely won victories in the suppression of bandits, and most of them were defeated by bandits.

Is it the bandits who are stronger? Or are the officers and soldiers too weak? No one can understand this question. However, there are more and more bandits in the world.

As a result, an official in the court proposed that the bandits could be recruited, and then the bandits who were recruited could be ordered to suppress the bandits. The reason is very good, the imperial court only gave a name, but it can make the place calm. Moreover, the more casualties on both sides, the more beneficial it was to the imperial court.

As the saying goes, killing people and setting fires has become the ultimate goal of the rivers and lakes and green forests.

In the army, there are more and more such people, who ask for food and salary, and are prone to uproar. bullied the people, went to the battlefield and fled. This is also the root cause of the dislike of the military. The imperial court has no way to deal with this, it is incapable of rectification, and it does not dare to let it go.

can only spend money and food to raise, but it has gradually become a cancer, gnawing at the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty.

Qin Chong had memories of later generations and knew that the Battle of Song and Xia was coming soon. The three major wars in which the country was exhausted all ended in defeat and dismal. Looking at history, one by one Wenchen and famous generals have been shining through the ages, but why can't they win a small Western Xia?

In countless battles, the generals rushed to the front and fought to the death, but the soldiers had already fled, how could this battle be fought?

In the Great Song Dynasty, soldiers and generals were completely two classes. will receive the emperor's favor, serve the court, and fight for a wife and son. And being a soldier just to eat, who would lose their lives for a job? If the above does not regard the soldier as a person, the soldier will naturally not sacrifice his life to follow.

This is the death cycle of the Great Song Dynasty, and from Qin Chong's vision, there is no solution to this matter.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the cave, and there were many people who heard it. The two bandits had a happy look on their faces, and they opened their mouths to shout. But when he caught a glimpse of Qin Chong's eyes, he was as if he was going to kill someone, and his neck shrank when he landed, and the words that had reached his mouth were swallowed alive.

Qin Zhong stood up and looked at the entrance of the cave quietly, waiting for someone to come in.

The entrance to the cave suddenly darkened, and the dog walked into the cave first. There were four or five people behind him, and they were also from the Black Tiger Village.

When the dog saw Qin Chong at first glance, his steps suddenly stagnated, and his eyes were full of surprise. I didn't panic, I glanced around the cave and saw the two bandits lying on the ground, and I already knew what was happening. When he looked at Qin Chong again, he couldn't help but laugh jokingly.

"Since you're loose, why don't you run away?" The dog asked.

"Asked something, delayed." Qin Zhong also looked at the dog, and his words were casual and casual.

"It just so happens that I'm here, and you don't have a chance to escape." The dog said and walked over to Qin Chong.

"Not necessarily." Qin Zhong smiled slightly, his fist touched in his palm, and he took a fighting posture.

The dog man was tall and big, half a head taller than Qin Chong, and he stepped over and punched in one step.

Qin Zhong didn't avoid a direct punch, but it was the last to come first, and the speed was much faster than that of a dog. The dog shook his head, and he had been punched in the nose, and Deng Deng took several steps back, raised his head and covered his nose, and tears and nosebleeds came out together.

"Ahh The dog was embarrassed and rushed over again with a loud scream.

This time, Qin Chong turned sideways slightly, followed by a step closer to the dog's body, and crossed one arm. With a "bang", the dog lay on the ground on all fours as if it had been hit hard. He sat up and shook his head, looking at Qin Zhong blankly. He couldn't figure out how he had been fallen.

"Come again." Qin Zhong looked down at the dog and hooked his hand at the dog.

"I don't believe it." The dog jumped up and rushed towards Qin Chong again. However, this time I learned to be smart, and I punched out, but I also left three points of strength.

Who knew that Qin rechanged his playing style, and in an instant, his body was half-spinning, and he took advantage of the situation to kick sharply.

"Ahh The dog only felt a flower in front of him, and he had been kicked out vigorously. The pain in his chest was so severe that he couldn't help but scream in pain, hit the mountain wall with a bang, and fell to the ground with a thud. Curled up like a shrimp, unable to stand up at all.

"How's it going, are you still fighting?" Qin Zhong walked over slowly and leaned over to look at the dog.

"Sss The dog tried to stand up, but he gasped in pain. After a long pause, he looked up and asked, "What trick did you use?" ”

"Martial arts." Qin Zhong said lightly.

"Martial arts? What kind of martial arts is this? I've never heard of it. "The dog's eyes are confused.

"The world's martial arts are as vast as a sea of smoke, how many have you seen as a frog at the bottom of a well?" Qin Chongyu was disdainful and deliberately stimulated the dog. Sure enough, the dog's face turned red when he heard this, and he glared at Qin Chong viciously, but he didn't make another move, and Gu Zi gasped in annoyance.

"The world outside the mountain is very big, what is martial arts? It's just hand-to-hand combat. There are more powerful martial arts than this. Qin Zhong squatted down, stared at the dog's eyes, and slowly bewitched, "Isn't it good to learn a skill, fight on the battlefield, and fight a wife?" ”

"Seal your wife and shade?" The dog understands this sentence, and the big boss often says it recently.

"What's the point of being a bandit, my father and mother are ashamed of you." Qin Zhong mentioned the dog's father and mother, and he was angered in an instant. "You're talking nonsense." The dog seemed to be fried, turned over and jumped up, roared wildly with red eyes, and punched Qin Chong's chest.

"Bang." A punch hit Qin Chong's chest. Qin Chong didn't dodge, nor did he resist, and he took a punch from the dog.

"You? Why not hide? The dog hit Qin Chong, but stopped in surprise.

"With such a soft fist, what is the difference between hiding and not hiding?" Qin Zhong said, but turned around and exposed his back in front of the dog's eyes.

The dog was originally angry that Qin Zhong was mean, but when he saw him turn around, he raised his fist and put it down weakly. Not only Black Tiger Village, but who dares to say that his dog's fists are soft? It was Qin Chong, who knocked him down with three punches and two kicks, leaving him helpless.

"What the hell do you want?" The dog gritted his teeth for a long time and asked sullenly.

"Come with me." Qin Chong turned around abruptly and looked at the dog with a sincere expression. "I'll teach you martial arts."

"Martial arts? Will you pass me on? "The dog is a little warm, he has personally experienced the power of martial arts, and it is fake if he is not moved.

"It's not just martial arts." Qin Chong said bewildermently, "Guns, riding and shooting, the art of war, and battle strategies can all teach you." ”

"Who the hell are you?" Qin Chong's words shocked the dog, and he finally doubted Qin Chong's identity. Which of these words are uttered by ordinary people?

"The guards are pro-army Ma Junsi, and the ten generals of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion stationed in Shayuan, Qin Chong." Qin Zhong did not hide it, and reported his identity in one bite.

"You? Are you a Praetorian Army? At this moment, not only the dogs, but also the bandits in the cave were startled.

"Not bad." Qin Chong continued, "You have a body of divine power, it's a pity to spend it in the bandits' den. Come with me and make a contribution on the battlefield. In the future, when you return to your hometown, you can also glorify your ancestors. In this way, you are worthy of your father. ”

"Hmm." The dog fell silent, lowering his head as if hesitating and tangled, and it was difficult to choose for a while.

"There's one more thing I'm going to tell you." Qin Chong's eyes were shining, and he said faintly.

"What?"

"If you want revenge, you have to be an official." Qin Zhong said, "With power, you can fight against power. ”

The dog suddenly looked at Qin Chong, and this sentence was like a lightning bolt that slashed into the dog's mind, making him tremble all over in an instant. For more than two years and 700 days and nights, the thought of revenge was like a devil, and he did not have a moment of peace. But the other party is powerful, and he has no way to take revenge.

Qin Chong's words were tantamount to lighting a lamp in his confused heart.

"Plop." The dog fell to his knees. hugged his fists and said, "I will follow you, follow me for the rest of my life, and never look back." ”

"Stand up and speak." Qin Chong's eyes sharpened, and he shouted, "My Qin Chong's brother, except for his father and mother, does not kneel to others." ”

The dog had red eyes, slowly stood up, and bowed to Qin. His heart was agitated, and tears involuntarily overflowed his eyes. Qin Zhong looked at the dog in front of him, the person was still the same person, but the spirit and spirit were completely different. solemnly clenched his fists and bowed back.

"From now on, I will report my surname in a dignified manner, and I will not dishonor my father and mother, nor my ancestors." Qin Zhong said.

"Lang Zongyu is willing to follow Brother Qin, share blessings and misfortunes, and follow each other in life and death." With tears in his eyes, the dog cried out loudly.

"Good brother." Qin Chong grabbed Lang Zongyu's arm and said awe-inspiringly, "Blessings and misfortunes are shared, life and death are followed." ”

By this time, the bandits in the cave had long been speechless. Looking at Qin Chong and the dog, everyone showed envious looks. Who doesn't have a thirst for a confidant in their hearts? Who doesn't want their friends to share blessings and misfortunes, life and death?

This kind of righteousness is longed for by everyone, but not everyone can achieve it.

"You go back to the big boss, I'm leaving." Lang Zongyu looked at the few people at the entrance of the cave and said, "The grace of taking in will be repaid in the future." ”

"Brother Dog, are you really leaving?" Does anyone dare to believe that they just followed others with just a few words?

"Yes, Brother Dog, the big boss can treat you well."

"Brother Qin, let's go." Lang Zongyu ignored everyone, turned to one side to get out of the hole, and asked Qin Zhong to go first.

"Let's go." Qin Zhong said, raised his feet and walked out of the cave, Lang Zongyu followed behind him, his attitude was resolute.

Walking out of the cave, the blazing sun was shining on your head, and you immediately had a scorching feeling. Looking up, I saw the opposite mountain peaks towering and green trees. I scanned left and right, and found that I was in a river valley, but it was already dry, and the craggy riverbed was exposed.

On the riverbed, many tents have been set up, and people are very busy. On the mountain wall on my side, many caves have been dug out, and people keep pushing carts in and out, and the carts are loaded with these large and small stones, showing a black-brown color, presumably saltpeter.

"These are all people from Black Tiger Village?" Qin Zhong asked.

"It's not." Lang Zongyu stammered and said embarrassedly, "They were all caught nearby." ”

"Oh?" Qin Chong wasn't too surprised, the bandits arrested people to work, isn't that a matter of course? "Are the people from Shanglongquan Village also arrested?"

The mountain village where Qin Chong stayed was called Shanglongquan, and there was a Xialongquan across the river. I heard that these two villages were originally one village, but they were split into two villages because of a river that turned against each other. To this day, they are still fighting every year for watering the land.

"Only the men were arrested, and the women did not move." Lang Zongyu said. "Do you want to let them go back?"

"Hmm." Qin nodded without speaking, and walked towards the tent. The bandits who were originally following behind him, Hula ran away several times, probably to report to the cottage. Qin took a second look, but didn't take it seriously, Gu Zi walked forward.

There were guards along the road, each armed with a knife and a gun. Seeing that there were dogs accompanying Qin Chong, he didn't stop them and let them pass.

"This is the Beishan River Valley, and over the mountain is the Black Tiger Village." Lang Zongyu pointed to the mountain peak in the distance and said.

"What is the reputation of Black Tiger Village?" Qin Zhong asked.

"Bandits, what kind of reputation can they have?" Lang Zongyu said, "However, the big boss has rules, you can grab food, money, and people, and you are not allowed to kill people." ”

"Well, there's a bottom line." Qin nodded and approached the tent.

There were many people near the tent, all of them grizzled and haggard, which was obvious that the mine was too tired. Qin Chong wanted to find someone to ask questions, but as soon as the people around him saw them, they immediately hid aside in a panic. Qin Chong couldn't find anyone to ask for a while.
