Chapter 11: Muyu passes through the border and experiences in the Northland
"Guanghua borders the Kingdom of Jin. Especially last year, the Kingdom of Jin invaded the south! Every inch of land here has been trampled countless times by the cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin. It has long been barren of grass! The entire land of Guanghua, Apart from Guanghua where the Guanghua Army is stationed, only Longshan and Guxian, which are close to Guanghua, are still inhabited. Apart from that, Xiaochengluyan, which we passed before, is the only city! "
"The people of the original Guanghua Land were either slaughtered by the Jin Kingdom or have all been moved away. This place has become a dead place..."
Lei Quan's words made Shen Tang's heart sink to the bottom!
"What about our original hometown of the Song Dynasty in the Kingdom of Jin?" Shen Tang had read about the Liao and Song Dynasties in books countless times. The wars between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty had brought great harm to the people of the Song Dynasty. However, until now he saw This truly desolate scene of thousands of miles of red land made us truly understand the cruelty of the battle between the two races.
Lei Quan was silent for a long time, and then said quietly: "There are also many people of the Song Dynasty there. When the imperial court moved south, how could it take care of the people? After the northern land was occupied by the Jin Kingdom, the people wanted to return to the Song Dynasty. Impossible. The occasional people who are able to cross the border and escape back are already lucky. But those who cannot leave can only be driven by the Jin Kingdom like pigs and dogs."
"Have you ever heard of two-legged sheep? That's what the Jin people called the people of the Song Dynasty! In their eyes, the people of the Song Dynasty are no longer human beings, but just beasts!"
"Does the imperial court not care?" Shen Tang couldn't help asking angrily.
However, in the face of Shen Tang's questions, Lei Quan was silent! How could the Song Dynasty be qualified to provoke the Jin State today? If the Jin State did not come to intrude, it would be enough for the court to celebrate, so how could they care about the Northern Song Dynasty? The sorrow of the local people? If this is the case, I am afraid that there will not be the sorrow of Yue Pengju back then!
"In the North, many Song people were forced to rebel by the Jin people! It can be said that there were rebels everywhere, but most of these rebels were killed by the Jin army. Even if they wanted to get any support from the court, they could not Do it!" Lei Quan's face was full of grief and anger!
You must know that all the rebels are the strength of the Song Dynasty and the people of the Song Dynasty! They fight in the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom, eager to one day expel the Jin Kingdom from their homeland. How they hope to be recognized by the court And support? I am afraid that what they hope for most is to see the mighty soldiers of the Song Dynasty appear again in the North one day...
"If there is a chance, I, Shen Tang, will definitely lead an army to fight for the throne in the north! Even if it can only bring a glimmer of hope to the people in the north..." Shen Tang said word by word.
"If that day comes, Babai will swear allegiance to you to the death!" Lei Quan's eyes also revealed countless desires!
Thousands of miles away from Shen Tang and others to the east, a larger caravan was moving forward mightily! To the left and right of this caravan, there was a group of neatly-dressed soldiers escorting the caravan forward until In front of them, a mountain several hundred meters high appeared.
"stop!"
A voice suddenly sounded, and then the entire team stopped abruptly!
Among the soldiers, a horse swept out very quickly, and on the horse's back was a black-armored general with a stern expression!
In just an instant, the horse swept to the front of the team!
And at the front of the team, there was a tall white horse, and on the horse's back was a pretty woman wearing a white cloak!
"Miss Muyu!" The general slightly cupped his hands, "In front of you is Tongbai Mountain. After passing Tongbai Mountain, you will enter the land of Jin! If it is inconvenient for you to go, please return to Zaoyang!"
Yes, the woman riding on the white horse is Shao Muyu who is also going to the Northland.
At this moment, Shao Muyu was wearing a red outfit and a white cloak covering his body. Compared with the past, he looked even more heroic!
After reining in the horse, Shao Muyu politely said to the black-armored general: "Thank you, General Zhao, for your support all the way. Muyu prepared a small gift and has asked the servant to be handed over to the general's personal guard. In addition, carry General Bian for me!"
The black-armored general cupped his hands and said, "On behalf of the soldiers under my command, I would like to thank Miss Mu Yu and wish her a safe return! By then, I, the Zaoyang Army, will be here to serve as your lord!"
The general rode away, and all the soldiers retreated like a tide!
Shao Muyu waved, and a man dressed in black and well-dressed rode up to Shao Muyu's side!
"Wu Laosi, you lead a hundred servants to go there. After crossing the border, check whether there is anything strange and whether the Barhu tribe has come to rescue you! We will station ourselves in Tongbai Mountain first. After you find out the situation, we will
Let’s go.”
The well-dressed man in black received the order, and then led the hundreds of men forward at a high speed, and disappeared into the mountain col in a short time.
Although Shao Muyu is a young woman, she is by no means a fledgling. Otherwise, such a huge family business would not be able to prosper. Therefore, although she is certain, it is still extremely safe.
When the man went forward, Shao Muyu asked the convoy to move forward. After arriving at the foot of the mountain, they stopped first, and then waited for a reply from the front.
Compared with Shao Muyu's team, the team of Shen Tang and others was naturally much thinner, and there was no official or military support! However, the journey was smooth, and they set foot on the land of the Kingdom of Jin without any difficulty.
"Sir, in front of you is Rangcheng in Dengzhou to the northwest, and Qinyang in Tangzhou to the northeast! Although Rangcheng is close, it is extremely unstable! Qinyang is much better, and many merchants from the Song Dynasty went to Qinyang to buy things.
Or selling..."
"Okay!" Shen Tang was not as familiar with the situation in the North as Lei Quan and others, so the group changed their route to the northeast, crossed the Baishui River, and slowly headed towards Qinyang.
Compared with the situation in the Land of Light before, now that we have arrived in the Kingdom of Jin, the situation is slightly better. At least, some people and simple villages can be seen.
However, the people here obviously live an extremely difficult life, which is naturally far different from Shen Tang's hometown, Shenjia Village. Perhaps, the people here look more like the victims of the previous disaster.
At the beginning, when he saw the hungry people, especially the old people and children, Shen Tang asked Teng Wu to bring some food! Seeing this, Lei Quan and others just smiled bitterly, but did not stop them.
However, there was no need for them to stop them. As they moved forward again, as they went deeper into Tangzhou, Shen Tang himself stopped involuntarily.
It's not because Shen Tang has lost his kindness, but because he has already discovered that even if he sends out all the food they carry, it will only be a drop in the bucket! The people here, even when it comes to skin care, are already the most important to them.
Luxurious dining!
Everyone's eyes are dull, and death may not be a terrible thing for them.
