Chapter 13: The Robbers
Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info lost Jiang Yun, Zhang Bao and his party were very frustrated, but they also quickly cheered up, because frustration is useless, this will only waste a lot of precious time on useless things.
With the water source, the life on the way to escape is much better, and finally there is no need to worry about starving to death, and the worst thing is that the grass and wild vegetables all over the ground, and the lush woods, you can always find something good to fill your stomach.
Of course, the premise is not picky eaters.
The three of them buried their past sufferings deep in their hearts, and in this way they went all the way east for two years.
In the past two years, Da Niu and Tianchen have grown a lot, and the original timid and fearful Da Niu has become mature and steady, shrewd and sleek, with shoulders like iron, and the sky will not fall.
Tianchen has become more cold and withdrawn, very realistic, and does not like to interact with people.
Tianchen doesn't care about idle things, but he doesn't allow others to find trouble with him, if anyone dares to cause trouble, Tianchen is extremely hateful, and the opponent often doesn't even have room for regret.
Tianchen has practiced some basic martial arts, some of them have played too much, and most of the people he has targeted have gone to the underworld to report.Therefore, he is also a feared character in the refugee tide, although in the past two years, the number of refugees has gathered more and more, and the team has become larger and larger, and few people generally dare to provoke Tianchen.
Eastern Zhou, Yuezhou territory.
This place is like spring all year round, the climate is warm and pleasant, at a glance is full of green fields, spring is full of joy, and Yuezhou is sparsely populated, the folk customs are simple, it can be said that it is the ideal place to live.
It is reported that more than 100 years ago, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty broke out in chaos, and the traitorous ministers of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty at that time were in power, intending to disrupt the country; Yuezhou is one of the big states that have been encroached upon.
Two hundred years ago, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty fought a big battle with the Gran people, and I heard that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty even used the "Heavenly Blessing Flame" at the bottom of the pressure box, which defeated the Gran people.
Some small countries in the south are also ready to move, and the newly established Huang State has rebelled, and several other countries have also followed suit, and the situation in the country is worrying.
Later, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty produced a generation of male lords, named Li Yan, known as the Bauhinia Emperor.
The Son of Heaven guards the country and is arrogant!
After the victory of the Great War, the Bauhinia Emperor naturally would not spare these traitors, he personally led the army to the south, wiped out the four southern countries at once, and expanded the land by more than 100,000 miles.
In addition to the newly established Huang Kingdom, the old Chen, Song, and Yue kingdoms were destroyed, making the so-called Southern Twelve Kingdoms become the Southern Nine Kingdoms.
In addition to the rare treasures, there are also grains and grains, among which there are many iron materials in the groceries.
At present, the world is in turmoil and controversy, and the war has been continuous for more than 30 years.
The consumption of weapons in the protracted war reached an astronomical amount, and the nine southern states were forced by the power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and they were afraid that they had emptied their families over the years.
Since the Bauhinia Emperor, the number of tributes has not decreased, but has increased year by year.
It is strange to say that this once-prosperous Bauhinia Emperor suddenly disappeared after reigning for more than 20 years, and has not appeared since then, and it has been 70 or 80 years.
For this reason, the emperors of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will garrison troops in the southeast, and the southern army of a million towns will display the Taolin Heights, condescendingly, to the nine southern countries and the six eastern countries, eyeing the tiger.
The south of Yuezhou is close to the southern vassal states, and the controlled area is up to 100,000 li, and the state capital wants to control it comprehensively, but it is beyond its power.
If the refugees of Tianchen live here, it will not have any impact on the local area, but the refugees who can insist on coming here are all thinking about crossing the Xiangjiang River and entering the hinterland of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
"I heard that you kid is the head of this area, don't you look very tall and mighty?"
At this moment, in the corner of the refugee group, Tianchen is surrounded by a group of little children, and the surrounding refugees just look up a few times, and then they are busy with their own business.
Because the pressure to survive here is not as great as in the west, there has been basically no large-scale scramble, and the refugee contingent has gathered more and more, with 70,000 or 80,000 people in sight.
There are more people, so there are more people who have nothing to do.
Although most of them hadn't heard of Tianchen leading any small group, and they hadn't forcibly levied protection fees or anything like that, whatever it was, finding someone to beat him up was the goal.
Most of these people have just joined this group of refugees, and they used to be arrogant in the original refugee team, but now that they have changed the environment, they naturally want to find the most famous person to fight and establish a prestige!
Unfortunately, most of them targeted Tianchen, who was alone, and there were many people fighting and few people, which was an eternal and unchanging victory.
"Well, what about talking to you? One of the gangsters was a little slimmer, and it looked like the number two person who specialized in slapping horses, and shouted to Tianchen.
Tianchen stopped the busyness in his hand, sighed lightly, stood up, looked at the few people opposite coldly, and said: "If you want to fight, you will fight, where is so much nonsense."
"Kid doesn't know what to do, you call me uncle if I don't fight today!
The little gangster's face was angry, and he immediately pointed his fingers and surrounded him one by one.
A moment later, the ground on all sides was full of people who had been put down by Tianchen, one by one, holding the wounds, lying on the ground and rolling around, moaning and moaning.
Tianchen grabbed the arm of the No. 2 person tightly, moved behind him, twisted it slightly, and this person's face was suddenly as white as paper, gasped, cold sweat broke out, his face was full of painful expressions, twisted into a ball, and begged for mercy in his mouth
"Uncle, please go around our group of people who don't have long eyes, hey, you tap, the kid's arms are about to break."
"Uncle, the kid will be messed up with you in the future, I don't know if you want to accept the little one?"
"Great, uncle, you go slowly."
Tianchen looked at the few people who fell to the ground and moaned, he who had always been expressionless, he still couldn't help but hang his head and shook his head again and again.
These guys look very tough, but in fact, they are very cowardly in their bones, and as long as they are scared once, they will never dare to harass them in the future, and when they see them in the future, they will either stay away, or nod their heads and call their masters.
Tianchen didn't kill the killer, in addition to being unable to kill, there are more and more refugees gathering now, and small-scale provocations like this will happen two or three times a day for nearly half a month! If they are all killed, it is a trouble to deal with the corpse, and if other people's elders come to the door, this is also to bring bad luck to themselves.
Now is not as good as before, there is almost no time when he is hungry, although there is not much serious food, but compared with just out of Zhongshan Village, it is simply a world of difference.
Tianchen walked towards the residence with a few handfuls of wild vegetables, the speed was not fast, and he seemed careless.
Suddenly, Tianchen felt that the corner of his eyes was stabbed by some light, he was slightly stunned, and then looked in the direction.
With his many years of experience, it is clear that metal reflects the sun's rays!
Is there anyone sneaking around there? Could it be that the gang just now was not convinced and found a helper? No, those people saw the embarrassment when they let them go, and they even crawled and rolled, only hating their father and mother for missing two legs.
Tianchen suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he hurriedly collected his mind and walked back quickly.
Zhang Bao was the only one in the camp, and Tianchen estimated that the big cow had gone out to find food. Zhang Bao saw that Tianchen was uncertain, so he walked up and asked, "What?
"Second uncle, I think someone is spying on us! No, it's spying on the entire refugee group!" Tianchen shook his head and said the guess in his heart.
"Someone is watching? No, there are tens of thousands of refugees in the team now, who would dare to pay attention, so many refugees, even if the other party has any thoughts, you have to weigh it.
Zhang Bao was taken aback when he heard this, then looked at the traces of the fight on Tianchen's body, and smiled and comforted.
Tianchen thought about it, said a few words to Zhang Bao, and went to work on his own business.
Not long after, the big cow came back, holding a hare in his hand, envious of the surrounding refugees.
Tianchen is very concerned about the events of the day, and asks for a vigil, because the refugee camp is too crowded and needs someone to watch the package not be stolen at night.
Zhang's father and son were busy all day, and they were tired enough, so they agreed.
At night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, the cool breeze is blowing, and the snoring of the refugee camp is everywhere.
The night passed, and the camp was uneventful.
When Da Niu got up in the morning, he saw Tianchen's eyes blackened, and laughed at his nerves being tortured by those gangsters.
The next night, Tianchen still asked for a vigil, Zhang's father and son were stunned, Da Niu smiled, and fell asleep unceremoniously.
The next morning, the night was silent, the sun was high, and the camp began to move on.
Tianchen was inevitably ridiculed by the bull again, and Tianchen didn't pay attention to it at all, as for the anger, it was naturally sprinkled on those gangsters who didn't have long eyes.
On this day, there were three teams to challenge together, about twenty people, Tianchen happened to hold back the fire in his belly, and cooked them so hard that no one dared to challenge them in the next few days.
I don't know why Tianchen can't let go of that light for a long time, he always feels that things won't be so simple.If it weren't for the extremely sharp blade, it wouldn't reflect such a dazzling light, he always hung a heart, and he couldn't be stable for a long time.
In the next few days, Tianchen still insisted on keeping vigil, because in the past, Zhang's father and son were half-asleep and half-awake, and Tianchen felt uneasy.
On the fifth day, Zhang Bao got up in the middle of the night to persuade Tianchen to pay attention to his body and wanted to replace Midnight.
He had a strong premonition that something was going to happen tonight.
Zhang Bao didn't want to ignore this suggestion, but at Tianchen's strong request, he still did as he was told.
Another hour is about to dawn, this moment is the sweetest time for everyone to sleep, Da Niu leans back to his father, yawning, half asleep.
"It's coming!"
Tianchen was silent, even if it was difficult for ordinary people to hear the two words, it immediately woke Zhang Bao up from his sleep and gave him a thrill.
"What's coming?
Zhang Bao looked around and asked in a low voice.At the same time, he sniffed, and there was a smell in the air that he had never smelled before.
"Horse manure!"
When Zhang Bao was in Zhongshan Village, after all, he had been hunting prey for more than ten years, and he knew the feces of wild beasts well.
How can there be horse manure in the barren mountains and mountains here? Could it be...
Zhang Bao thought of an extremely bad situation, and hurriedly got up to prepare, but was stopped by Tianchen.
"Uncle Zhang, don't be impulsive, since these people have been secretly following us for so long, they must have a big plan.After enduring so many days to make a move, it is estimated that there were not enough people at that time, and they couldn't eat us in one go, and they were used to raise manpower in the past few days.
"We have tens of thousands of people here, who has such a big appetite to eat?" Zhang Bao was a little unconvinced, but the increasingly thick smell in the air made him agree with Tianchen's opinion a little in his heart.
"Tens of thousands? It's just a rabble! The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are also a thing? In short, we can't act rashly, first wake up the big bull, and then pick up things. Tianchen looked around and looked cautious.
Zhang Bao couldn't think of a good way for a while, so he had to act according to his words.
At this moment, small bright spots suddenly appeared around.
Tianchen was startled and said in a deep voice: "It's not good, they plan to attack with fire."
As soon as the words fell, "whoosh", rows of light flew into the sky, with a blazing and whistling sound, like a red meteor shower falling in the refugee camp.
On the vast land, there was a grand rain of fire!
Although the refugees were poor, no matter how tattered they were, how many clothes they had on their bodies, and some of the unlucky ones were directly ignited by the flames on the bows and arrows.
The originally quiet and peaceful refugee camp was like boiling water, which exploded in an instant.
As a result, as if the two sides had discussed it, a large number of infantry soldiers rushed out from all sides at some point, and the size of the soldiers was about 20,000. The soldiers lined up, and one of the refugees who had been attacked by surprise was caught off guard and fled back one after another. The soldiers were well-trained, and they advanced in turn, gradually retracting, and the space for the refugees to move became smaller and smaller.
Just when most of the refugees were at a loss and were going to fight to the death, the east was suddenly rushed out of several gaps by the refugees, and a large number of refugees learned about it, and quickly fled from the east, and the people behind naturally followed suit.
At this time, several groups of cavalry, totaling more than 3,000 people, came out from both sides and surrounded the refugees.
These cavalrymen were all good hands, attacking and defending well, and they had a very tacit understanding with each other, and when they saw someone provoking, the cavalry moved their real character, and the spears in their hands pierced for a while, and more than a dozen hot-headed refugees were easily picked under their horses and all of them were killed! The refugees were terrified, and no one dared to attack the cavalry again.
As long as there is a breath of respite, the refugees are not willing to fight to the death. They always like to wait for others to protect themselves from the disaster, or some savior from the sky to solve the crisis.
After a long time, the young strong men in front were a little unable to hold on, seeing that their physical strength was about to be exhausted, and there were cavalry around them, the strong men saw their end, one by one unwilling, annoyed and angry, began a large-scale counterattack, hoping to break through the cavalry blockade.
But these cavalry were extremely cunning, and when they saw the menacing arrival of the refugees, they actually retreated with one blow, avoiding their edge, and had no intention of fighting with them in the slightest.
With a pair of feet, where can the refugee outrun a four-legged horse, the refugee rushes left and right, and never touches the side of the cavalry, as if with all his strength, his fists are all in the air.
The encirclement of the cavalry is like a balloon, and the refugees are the air in the balloon, no matter how they struggle, it is in vain.
The refugees began to be unable to support themselves, and planned to stop in place collectively to rest for a while, recover their strength, and then make plans.
At this moment, the ground in the west began to tremble, and thousands of infantry armor soldiers appeared on the horizon, their expressions were solemn, and they pressed towards this place with heavy footsteps!
The refugees were exhausted and out of breath, and they looked to the western sky, powerlessness and despair.
The sun is rising, the heavens and the earth are clouded, who has noticed this human tragedy?
