Chapter 308: Straight to the camp

Yang Shucheng and the two continued to walk east in the Dahong Mountain.

I walked for three or four days. In the evening of this day, I had walked out of the Dahong Mountain, and when I was standing at the entrance of the road, I was discussing where to go, when I saw a child crying in front of me.

The two stood still, and the child was seven or eight years old, unkempt, crying sadly all the way, and walked up to the two, without looking at the two, and continued to walk forward.

Wang Huaguo couldn't help it and asked, "Little brother, what are you crying about?" Who bullied you? ”

The boy raised his teary eyes, looked at the two of them, and said, "Someone has snatched my sheep away." ”

Wang Huaguo was also born as a sheep herding baby, and she loves her free-range sheep more than life. He immediately felt sympathy and asked, "Who robbed your sheep?" ”

"It's the bare-headed men who robbed my sheep with big knives. I asked them, and they smote me with a knife. As he spoke, he couldn't hold back his tears.

Wang Huaguo said: "Little brother, you take us and snatch your sheep back." ”

When the boy heard that someone was willing to take charge of the sheep for him, he immediately stopped crying and said, "I don't know where they went." ”

"It's okay, let's go to the front and ask."

"Okay."

The child was happy, stopped crying, came forward and took Wang Huaguo's hand, and walked back.

After walking for a while, I heard a crisp voice shouting: "Xiaojian, where are you?" Come back soon. ”

Then a girl came over. "This is my sister." The child Xiaojian said.

The girl saw Xiao Jian and walked this way.

"Where have you gone, your father and mother are looking for you everywhere. Go back quickly. ”

"This brother is going to take me to find the sheep."

The girl glanced at Wang Huaguo, this girl was fifteen or sixteen years old, although she was a peasant girl with a jinghai cloth skirt, she couldn't hide her pretty eyebrows and fair skin. She was slender, her teeth were white and neat, Wang Huaguo glanced at her, and couldn't help but move in her heart, and her face couldn't help but blush.

"Don't look for it, the sheep has been robbed by the Qing soldiers."

Wang Huaguo said proudly: "What about the Qing soldiers! We're going to kill the Qing soldiers. ”

The girl's face flushed, and she said, "They kill people and set fires, and do all kinds of evil, you are strangers, don't mess with them." ”

Wang Huaguo understood the importance of a sheep to a poor family, and when he saw that this beautiful girl cared so much about himself, he was full of pride, and said, "We are not afraid, where do you say their military camp is?" ”

The girl glanced at Wang Huaguo again and said, "You better leave quickly, these Qing soldiers are unreasonable and kill people at every turn, you should leave quickly." ”

Yang Shucheng also hated the Qing soldiers for killing innocents indiscriminately, he said: "Little girl, don't worry about us, where do you say the Qing soldiers are?" We'll go to them, and then we won't bother you. ”

This girl and this boy are sisters and brothers, the elder sister's name is Xiaoyin, and the younger brother's name is Xiaojian.

"They are on the side of the mountain more than ten miles to the north, you should be careful, these barbarians say that they will kill people."

"Okay. Go home, and we'll go. Wang Huaguo said.

Yang Shucheng was still careful, he asked, "Where is your home?" When the time comes, we will bring back the sheep and send them to your home. ”

The little silver girl said: "Just in front of the Linjia Village, the westernmost family, behind the house is a bamboo forest, there are two osmanthus trees in front of the door, and there is a weir pond in front. ”

"Okay, let's go."

The two sides broke up at the intersection of the road, Yang Shucheng and the two walked north, and after a stone's throw away, Wang Huaguo turned around and said loudly: "What is the mark of your sheep?" ”

The little silver girl said, "It has a bell around its neck." ”

"Okay." Wang Huaguo said to Yang Shucheng, "Let's go." ”

The two of them hurried forward.

At this time, it was already evening, and the two of them were a little hungry and couldn't care about it. Everywhere there were no villages after the war, and everywhere there were crows perched on the tall trees, and the crows were quacking, sounding particularly terrifying, as if some disaster was about to happen.

Of course, the two of them didn't take the crows to heart, and these Qing soldiers were nothing in the eyes of the two.

The two walked north along the mountain road, and the distance of more than ten miles was quickly completed, and at this time, they smelled the fragrance of beef and mutton in the distance drifting along the night wind.

Knowing that the barracks had arrived, the two couldn't help but become cautious, and they walked forward under the cover of grass and trees.

Sure enough, not far ahead, there was a military camp, with as many as five or six in total, and a small group of Qing soldiers was stationed here.

At this time, it was dinner time, and the taste of beef and mutton was stronger, as well as the aroma of wine.

At this time, the bright moon in the sky appeared and disappeared, and there were insects everywhere, and there was not even a single figure, thinking that the Qing soldiers were eating meat and drinking wine in the tent.

The two quietly walked to a tent, and at this time, they heard screams from another tent, which must have been captured by the Qing soldiers and tortured here.

Since Yang Shucheng and the two met, they couldn't help but glance at each other, so let's save people first.

was about to fight, Wang Huaguo couldn't help but squeeze the slingshot in his hand again.

The two crept up to the tent and looked through the crack, where torches were lit and the smoke went straight to the roof. There was a strong man tied to the middle pillar, who had been beaten and bruised all over his body.

There was a Qing soldier sitting inside, who looked like a small leader, and next to him stood a Qing soldier, holding a horse whip in his hand, who must have just finished beating people, tired from the beating, and still panting loudly.

The sitting leader said a word, and Yang Shucheng and the two couldn't understand it, but they immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and saw the Qing soldiers standing up and whipped again.

The screams rang out again. Yang Shucheng saw that he was pitiful and couldn't care about anything, so he lifted the curtain and broke in.

The two Qing soldiers saw that they fought from the northeast to Hubei, and they were also experienced in a hundred battles, and when they knew that the enemy was coming, they immediately picked up their knives and slashed at Yang Shucheng.

Yang Shucheng put these two Qing soldiers in his eyes, flashed the knife, and stabbed it with a sword, and the sword stabbed the throat of a Qing soldier, and as soon as the sword was drawn, he died on the spot.

Yang Shucheng knew that the Qing soldiers were brave and determined to avenge his companions, and he was about to kill him, but he knew that the character of this Qing soldier was different from other Qing soldiers, so he swung his knife away, drew a hole in the tent, turned around and fled.

This was something Yang Shucheng didn't expect, he didn't chase after him, it was important to save people, he stepped forward and swung his sword, cut the rope on the person who was tied up, and saved the person down.

The man was so beaten that he was on the verge of collapse, and he certainly couldn't escape on his own. Yang Shucheng and the two stepped forward to support him and walked out of the tent.

At this time, the Qing soldier who had escaped shouted loudly, and Yang Shucheng and the others couldn't understand what he was shouting, so it was estimated that it was:

"Come on, people......"

Sure enough, this is what it means, and in the blink of an eye, the Qing soldiers who were eating meat and drinking wine in the tent all ran out with machetes.

Seeing the enemy who came to rob the prisoner, he immediately surrounded the three of them in the center, and the two sides could not understand each other, but they also knew what it meant, and immediately began to fight.

Wang Huaguo supported the strong man, and Yang Shucheng swung his sword to fight, running towards the mountain to the west while fighting.

There are more than 30 Qing soldiers, Yang Shucheng didn't take them seriously, but this Qing army is also very brave, it was the Qing army generals in Wuchang who specially left this Qing army here, that is, to search and suppress the anti-Qing team near Dahong Mountain.

This group of Qing soldiers has been trained for a long time, and the Qing soldiers in front are responsible for wielding knives and slashing, and the Qing soldiers in the back are responsible for releasing arrows. For a while, there was a rain of arrows, shooting straight towards Yang Shucheng.

It is not very difficult for Yang Shucheng to retreat with his whole body, but it is a little difficult to save Wang Huaguo and the two of them.

But Yang Shucheng is not a person who is afraid of things, since he can't rush out for a while, he calms down and fights with the enemy in front of him.

The sword was waved, the blood was splashed, and four or five Qing soldiers immediately lay down under Yang Shucheng's feet, some of whom were not dead, and howled miserably on the ground.
