The whip was continuously waved in the air, accompanied by violent scolding sounds.
"Take up your weapons or take the whip!"
There is no mercy or kindness here.
Diao Jun was whipped on the shoulder and was so painful that he broke into a cold sweat.
Although his butt was not yet sharp, he gritted his teeth and followed the team with a wooden spear in hand, fearing that he would slow down and be whipped by the supervisor's whip.
He saw with his own eyes several soldiers who fell down due to exhaustion, being beaten as hard as they could by the vicious supervisors, wailing incessantly. Some even fainted and were carried down one after another.
In the school grounds, a group of noble officials and generals were watching this scene and were chatting and laughing.
"General Yu, with your practice, the soldiers have lost half their lives before the battle begins!" A civil servant in green robes said with a smile, "Is it appropriate?"
"No need to worry, Chief Nie, this is the only way to be effective!" Jia Zhengjin transformed into Yu Cheng, pointing the riding whip at the training troops, "Time is tight, there is no time to teach them anything else, at least they must understand that the battlefield is cruel, no one
I will accommodate them!"
"The general is going to give the new recruits a lesson and let them know what obedience means. When the war begins, they will be able to obey their orders." A lieutenant nearby rode close to him.
"That's right! General Zhe Chong has a foresighted plan, so Chief Nie doesn't need to worry!" Another deputy general came over, his face full of flattery.
"Master Nie's gaze swept across the two lieutenants and then back to Jia Zhengjin's face: "General Yu, this battle is of vital importance and cannot be ignored! The Prime Minister sent me here to tell you a message."
"Oh, what did the Prime Minister say?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a smile.
"I am afraid that the developments in our country will soon reach Bashui County." Chief Nie said solemnly, "The Prime Minister has ordered, please General Yu to send troops as soon as possible, and complete the surprise attack before Sha Yihe, the governor of Bashui County, can react, and break through in one fell swoop
Bashui County will be included in the territory of Qi State!"
"Go back and report to the Prime Minister. Since I have issued a military order, I will definitely be able to decide the outcome in one battle! I know exactly when to send troops."
"Then I will report back to the Prime Minister!"
"Send it to Master Nie!"
"yes!!"
When the deputy general sent the people away, Jia Zhengjin looked at the troops who were practicing and suddenly waved his whip: "Practice hard! Don't even think about resting until you have three layers of skin!"
The school grounds were filled with wailing and begging for mercy, one after another, continuously.
Late night, military camp.
Diao Jun was lying in the tent, surrounded by recruits who had been forcibly recruited.
At this moment, not only him, but everyone around him was scarred and looked particularly miserable.
Why does this happen?
First, he picked up a silver ingot and wanted to send it to the government with good intentions, but he lost his back and was wrongfully accused. He was arrested and forced to confess by words and deeds, and he was made to die. Then he was forcibly recruited and brought to Danyang to join the army. He was about to attack Bashui County soon. It is said that he told himself
Everything together is cannon fodder for consumption.
He used golden sore medicine on himself and other soldiers in order to recover as quickly as possible so that they could go to the battlefield.
If we really wanted to treat these new recruits as human beings, they would not whip them with whips indifferently. Almost everyone was covered in bruises and could just be dealt with by giving them some golden sore medicine.
Once on the battlefield, the chances of all recruits surviving, including himself, are extremely low.
The most uncomfortable thing in his heart at the moment was that this series of accidents had happened, and Xi'er probably had no idea about it.
Maybe she was still angry at herself for not keeping her promise and not going over to see her.
At the same time, I am also worried about Brother Shao.
Even if he is caught, Brother Shao may not be able to escape his involvement.
I don’t know if he is okay, and do you know his current situation?
As I think about it, my eyelids become heavy.
The drills during the day had made the recruits exhausted, and there was loud snoring everywhere.
Diao Jun was also very tired and fell asleep in a daze.
He didn't know how long he had been sleeping, but suddenly there was a slight sound in his ears, causing him to open his eyes instantly.
In the darkness, I was shocked to find that several new recruits in the same tent had taken off their armor, wearing only thin linings, and moved out lightly.
He subconsciously reached out and grabbed one of them.
The recruit immediately turned around, nervously made a silencing gesture to him, and then continued walking out.
Are they going to escape?
Diao Jun reacted, ignored the armor placed beside the bed, got up and followed quietly.
There are patrols everywhere in the military camp, but they are a little slacker at this time.
The recruits in front seemed to have planned it in advance. They even knew the patrol time accurately. They quietly came out of the tent, lurked in the shadows, and moved out under the cover of night.
Following them, Diao Jun was so nervous that he didn't even dare to speak out.
In this way, the team bypassed the patrols and, after almost being discovered several times, finally escaped from the barracks unharmed.
After leaving the barracks, the deserters ran desperately towards the forest ahead, refusing to stop for a moment.
Diao Jun also saw hope, he didn't want to die on the battlefield.
Although deserters must be beheaded, those who go to the battlefield will still die.
If you can escape smoothly, go back and find Brother Shao and Xi'er. Maybe you can hide in the mountains anonymously, or you can escape to surrounding countries.
He spread his legs and ran as fast as he could, with only one thought in his mind: return to Qimu Town!
"There are deserters!"
"Catch the deserters!!"
"The general has an order, no one can escape!"
"Catch the deserters, life or death!"
"Fire arrows!!"
"They went towards the mountains and forests!"
"Chase!"
No one knew who had exposed their whereabouts. Suddenly, a pot exploded in the barracks, and then torches spread. Countless Danyang soldiers chased after them, and their horses neighed.
"Swish, swish, swish!" Arrows were fired randomly in the dark night, all pointing in this direction, not caring whether the deserters lived or died.
Diao Jun saw with his own eyes that a recruit in front of him was shot through the left leg by an arrow. The moment he fell, dense arrows fell from the sky, directly shooting him into a hedgehog.
This made him extremely frightened, and the arrows around him almost hit him, which made him feel like he was dying, and he ran forward desperately.
He must return to Qimu Town, must find Brother Shao, and must see Xi'er!
Although he was injured all over his body, he didn't know where he got the strength to run towards the mountains and forests with all his strength.
Screams were heard from everywhere in the darkness, the pursuers shot many recruits, the horses were getting closer and closer, and the ground seemed to be shaking.
"Stop everyone! If you keep running forward, it doesn't matter whether you live or die!" Among the pursuing soldiers, a deputy general roared at the top of his voice.
However, the fleeing recruits did not care and continued to run for their lives with all their might.
Diao Jun heard the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer behind him. He couldn't see how many recruits were running away around him, and he only felt endless panic in his heart.
"There is someone here!!" As the light of the torch appeared, Diao Jun's whole body became cold, and he gritted his teeth and ran forward desperately.
"Stop! Those in front of you stop quickly!!"
"What are you talking about? Shoot him!"
"Whoosh!" In an instant, countless arrows flew in Diao Jun's direction.
