The Shama tribe is a typical Dali tribe. The patriarch’s home is the largest earth building in the middle. The rest of the tribe live scattered around. There are only some fences on the outermost edge to prevent wild animals from entering. An army armed to the teeth can conquer this
The village is not difficult at all.
The army is cold-blooded. They will not pay attention to the prayers and pleas of the Shama people. They just chop the knife on their heads coldly, regardless of gender...
"Master Jun, I can't live anymore, I can't live anymore. The men have been taken to the mines to mine, leaving women and children with no way to live. Half of the men in our village died in one year. They were forced to
I'm exhausted, the mine is like hell..."
There was no emotion in Zhao Yannian's gray eyes. He raised the blood-stained long knife again, and the talkative old man fell into a pool of blood with a scream.
A dozen men wailed and shouted out from behind the bamboo building. Zhao Yannian looked at the standard Song Dynasty knives in their hands and coldly ordered: "They are all rebels, kill them!"
After deflecting a bamboo arrow with his hand, Zhao Yan threw the torch in his hand into the place where the bamboo arrow flew out. In an instant, the bamboo building that had been splashed with grease burst into flames.
A girl screamed and jumped out of the bamboo building with a seven or eight-year-old boy in her arms. Before she could take a few steps, an armor-piercing awl penetrated her thin chest, nailing her and the little boy together.
on the ground.
Zhao Hao wiped the vomit from the corner of his mouth. With red eyes, he stepped on the dead branches and leaves and split a fence with a knife. He walked step by step towards the fighting crowd. Anyone and anything that blocked his way along the way would be killed.
He cut him in two with a long knife.
What Zhao Min had just said was still lingering in his ears: "Boy, what do you think war is? Do you think war is a duel between men?
We fight with all possible means to win without any mercy. Now put away your weakness and continue to fight. If you don't fight, you will die!"
Zhao Ting opened his mouth to argue that this was a massacre, but received a slap from Zhao Hao. Zhao Hao could see clearly that if Zhao Ting dared to say another word, Zhao Hao's knife could even cut it off.
Zhao Hao didn't regard himself as a human being at this time. Yun Zheng said that soldiers should not have their own ideas when they go to the battlefield. They must always regard the will of the collective team as their own will. If they can't do that,
At this point, going to the battlefield is also seeking death...
Zhao Hao didn't know how long he had been slashing. He didn't stop killing until his two companions pounced on him and pinned him to the ground. When he fell to the ground, his eyes were wide open, and the sky and the earth were filled with blood.
Not far from him lay a delicate girl, her big eyes no longer lifeless, an armor-piercing awl penetrated her chest... Zhao Hao could see clearly, the black and shiny rod
The two ancient seal characters "Xinhou" are engraved on the armor-breaking cone. The two characters are beautifully engraved. This is Zhao Hao's proud work. His name is Xinhou!
Because his father liked gold and stone antiques, Zhao Hao learned engraving from his father when he was very young. From then on, everything around him would have these two words on it.
The words on the clothes were embroidered by his mother, the words on the horse's chariot were engraved by his father himself, and the words on the saddle, waist knife, and armor-piercing awl were all written by him.
Even his crossbow arrows have these two words on them. He used to always think that a man would not do secret things, even if he killed the enemy, he still wanted the enemy to know who killed him.
Before coming to Shuzhong, I and my friends had a banquet in a high building to celebrate. At that time, I said that I would rather be a centurion than a scholar. Now I have killed the enemy, but the words on the armor-piercing awl look so cruel and cruel.
gloomy.
This war is different from the war I thought...ah...
Zhao Hao screamed and gnawed on the blood-stained ground. There was still a little bit of the suave demeanor of a romantic nobleman... like a man-eating evil ghost.
"The beacon fire shines on Xijing, and I feel uneasy in my heart. Yazhang bids farewell to the Phoenix Tower, and the iron cavalry circles the Dragon City. The snow is dark withered flag paintings, and the wind is full of noise. It is better to be a centurion than a scholar..."
"Wow..."
The soldiers of Zhao Min and Zhao Yannian brought clean water from the creek and poured buckets of water on them. At the beginning, the blood flowed down like a waterfall, but in the end, only a faint red color remained...
Zhao Yannian looked at the lost royal brothers and whispered to Zhao Min: "Two more times and they will collapse."
Zhao Min coldly spat out the salty blood in his mouth and said, "There's nothing to say. Those who persevere are considered qualified, and those who can't persevere will be eliminated.
The Zhao family of the Imperial Song Dynasty has been at peace for too long. We should know what iron-blood is, we should know what war is, and it doesn't matter if useless people die. Why, are you soft-hearted?"
Zhao Yannian smiled bitterly and said: "No wonder the commander-in-chief hopes that this expedition will be led by you and I will be the assistant. I am older than you, but you are more like a general than me."
Zhao Min looked at Zhao Yannian and said, "Because I died one more time than you. When we were in Qingtang, I was hit on the head with a flail. Do you still remember?"
Zhao Yannian nodded and said, "I kept you company for three days and three nights. You had a high fever and your face no longer looked human."
Zhao Min nodded and said: "I slept for three days and three nights, and also fought for three days and three nights..."
Zhao Yannian smiled and said: "No wonder the first thing you said after waking up was "I'm so tired!" and then you really fell asleep."
"That lethargy made me forget a lot of things. What was left behind were all things related to the battlefield. For a while, when I saw Yun Shuai, I wanted to turn around and run away, for fear that he would send me to the battlefield again, so this time
, I don’t want to escape, and I won’t allow you to escape.”
Zhao Yannian patted the wet Zhao Min and said: "Now that you have mustered up the courage, let's talk about what we should do next? The Sha Ma Department is finished, but we have not killed them all, there are still some people
After escaping into the mountains and forests, the Fengpa Department will definitely receive the news."
Zhao Min washed the long sword in his hand and inserted it into the scabbard. He smiled and said: "Since there is no possibility of a surprise attack, let's attack by force. I changed my mind. Suddenly I felt that the most important thing in this war is not to recover Jianchang Mansion but to recover these things."
Brother, bring it out. As long as there are people, Jianchang Mansion can take it back anytime."
"You mean we don't care about strategy, we just fight and fight happily?"
Zhao Min laughed ferociously and said: "Kill all the people, and naturally we will capture Jianchang Mansion."
Zhao Yannian raised his head and looked at the sun and said, "Now that we've decided to pay attention, let's do it. If we still have time, let's go to the Fengpa Department."
Zhao Hao heard the horn sound of the assembly, but the horn sound seemed far away from him. He struggled to get up from the ground, and when he saw the armor-piercing awl on the girl's body, he wanted to pull it off. He stopped and took it out from his arms.
A jade pendant was placed in the girl's hand. Likewise, the jade pendant also had his name on it.
He very much hoped that someone would help this girl to get revenge. If she died in this matter, Zhao Hao felt that he had nothing to complain about.
The ground in Dali is truly flat, and the war horses almost become a burden here. Zhao Ting led the horse and worked hard to keep up with the group. He knew very well that once he fell behind, no one would wait for him.
There are endless mountain roads to walk, endless forests to see, the sun comes out from behind the clouds, the earth becomes a steamer, sweat flows from the neck into the underwear, the armor is worn on the shoulders and back, and it hurts after being soaked in sweat. If you say
Yesterday I was a murderous demon in the Shama Department. Now I am like a puppet. I only know how to mechanically follow the brigade and have no intention to think about yesterday's killings. My tired legs are like lead.
He could hardly take a heavy step.
The military commander finally issued a military order to stop advancing and rest on the spot. He sat down on the ground. Who knew that as soon as he sat down, he was picked up by Zhao Hao.
"Check where you are going to sit. This is Dali, not Tokyo. If you are bitten by a poisonous insect, you will die."
Zhao Ting nodded dully, watching Zhao Hao sprinkle sulfur on the ground, and also saw some unknown small insects emerging from the dead branches and leaves, and even a two-foot-long red snake, but just look at it
The triangular head and colorful colors indicate that he is not a kind person.
Just when the little snake was about to get into the woods, a spear was nailed to the head of the little snake. The little snake twisted its body and tightly wrapped around the spear. After a while, it let go and fell softly to the ground.
On the ground.
Zhao Yannian chopped off the snake's head, picked out a small snake gallbladder with a knife, held it with the tip of the knife and brought it to Zhao Ting and said: "Swallow it, don't bite it, it's very bitter."
Zhao Ting closed his eyes and swallowed it in one gulp. A chill slipped from his throat to his chest and abdomen. He habitually wanted to vomit. Zhao Yannian threw a wine bottle over and Zhao Ting took a big sip before the feeling of boredom in his chest gradually subsided.
The ground dispersed.
"Brothers are all doing well. It's a good result that we can persevere until now. However, three brothers are already sick. You hold on and take care of yourselves. We have to go back to Tokyo to praise His Majesty. We fell down at the beginning.
Suffered a loss."
"What should we do if we are sick?" Zhao Hao stared at Zhao Yannian.
"There is no other way. We have to disperse with the army and swallow two packets. Whether we can get better depends on our personal fate. No one can help."
"The Jingxi Army has military doctors, why don't you go see a doctor?"
Zhao Yannian chuckled and said: "The military doctor is from the Jingxi Army, why should he give it to us? We are now the Divine Guards. The commander has supported our brothers with six hundred soldiers from the Jingxi Army. This is the limit of his ability. Do you know, Your Majesty?"
The commander-in-chief was not allowed to help us."
Zhao Zhe came over and said with red eyes: "Are you just going to watch them die?"
Zhao Yannian laughed and said: "When people die, only those who survive are important. Our royal family has enjoyed all the wealth and honor in the world. It is not a blessing to die now. Now it is time to save everyone's life. Boy, the war has just begun. Welcome.
