Chapter 175: Lonely Spear Guards the Soul of the Tang Dynasty
A critical moment.
Suddenly, the leader raised his hands, indicating that he only had cloth bags and no weapons!
While shouting at the sergeant: "We are businessmen of the Tang Dynasty!"
Then he got up and dismounted, and put the dry food and water bags in his hands on the ground.
"I haven't seen the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty for many years. I would like to ask the military master if our troops from the Tang Dynasty are coming back?"
But the sergeant stood silently with his gun at his side.
The disappointed businessman of Tang Dynasty sighed: "This road is getting more and more difficult to walk!"
Seeing this, Xu Fei also sighed as he thought of the previous background introduction and the history he had read about this period before.
I have an inexplicable urge to cry!
The sergeant was silent because he knew he would never come back.
The merchants of the Tang Dynasty were disappointed. What was disappointing was that as a person from the Tang Dynasty, this place seemed to have been forgotten!
There is no strong country or strong army behind it. The spring river water warms the duck prophets. They, the businessmen who do business on this road, know the difficulties best.
Back on the road!
The refugees once again asked their doubts: "Where are we going?"
"Hey, where did all this money come from?"
"With so much money, what can you do wrong? Buy dozens of acres of land, get a few beautiful wives, buy a big house, wear silk in summer and mink in winter, hahaha!"
The refugee couldn't help laughing as he spoke.
"Drink wine every day and eat meat every meal!"
As he took a bite of the biscuit, he said: "Who is still chewing this!"
This also aroused Xu Fei's curiosity, yes, with so much money, where will it be sent? And where does this money come from?
At this moment, the old sergeant's face suddenly changed, but there was a wind and sand in the desert.
He quickly stopped the frightened horse.
However, after the sandstorm passed, the only old horse died!
They have no animal power, how can they transport so much money?
In order to reduce the burden, the veterans began to take off their thick iron armor.
Gather the money bags and hang a few on them for the cursing homeless people.
The refugee said angrily: "You want money at the expense of your life, right? The horses are dead, how can you get out without leaving a few bags behind?"
This time, the veteran answered him.
He took out a military order and said: "This money is the military expenditure sent by Qiuci City to Xizhou. The military orders are like a mountain, and no penny can be lost!"
However, the refugees did not appreciate it: "Stop talking about those useless things. I ask you, can you carry it?"
The veteran hung the rope around his neck and gritted his teeth and said: "Climb, we have to climb to Xizhou City!"
Although reluctant, the refugees had no choice but to follow due to the persistence of the veterans.
At night, while the veteran was sleeping, the refugees secretly burned the rope with fire in an attempt to escape.
What's interesting is that even when he ran away, he didn't forget to pick up a bag of money.
But his joy soon turned to sorrow. He was caught by a veteran, and during the struggle, a military badge fell from his body!
The veteran picked up the military card and read out the words on it: "Xuanwei Army! Are you a soldier? Are you a deserter?"
The veteran's voice suddenly became sharp.
But at this time, the homeless man who had always been in a rage and cheating kept struggling and shouting: "Give it to me! Give it to me!"
Faced with the veteran's question, he struggled and said: "How many soldiers does Datang still have here?"
"So you ran away?"
"The city is gone, everyone is dead, and I am the only one left. What else can I do?"
He almost yelled the last sentence.
The camera flashed back to reveal that the refugee was indeed a soldier. He also wanted to die with his comrades, and he did not want to be a deserter. However, they let him escape and asked him to take their letters home!
Return to the fire.
The refugee took out several blood-stained letters: "A few living people turned into these pieces of paper."
"The words are gone, where should I send them?"
Xu Fei suddenly fell silent. Obviously, there didn't seem to be anything particularly sensational, but for some reason, he just had the urge to cry!
The experience of the refugees also affected the veteran. He sighed: "Yes, I have been trapped for twenty-five years, and there is no news from everyone. General Guo sent people back to Chang'an several times, but they all died on the way. Once he finally contacted
I went to school, but I didn’t expect that the year name had changed. Counting now, it should be the eleventh year of Jianzhong, right?”
He took out a copper coin and said: "This coin has the four characters of Jianzhong of the Tang Dynasty cast on it, just to tell the people here..."
But before the veteran finished speaking, he was interrupted by the refugee. He threw away the copper coin and said: "There are hundreds of thousands of people here, what use does this little money have?"
The veteran picked up the copper coins that were thrown on the ground and said: "Even if it can be exchanged for an extra cart of grain and grass, a knife, and an arrow..."
His voice suddenly became louder: "This will let one more enemy know that this is me, the Tang Dynasty!"
Here is my Datang!
Here is my Datang!
The veteran's voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing in Xu Fei's mind.
Here is my Datang!
Xu Fei's eyes suddenly turned red, but his eyes were still staring at the screen.
"Many businessmen and people provided us with food and grass, but the enemy captured them and had their heads removed!"
He raised the copper coin in his hand: "What they recognize is not this coin, but the two characters cast on it, Datang!"
"When the money is delivered, I will send you a fast horse, and also help the brothers in Xizhou City to deliver family letters!"
Amidst the sky full of yellow sand, the two set out on the road again.
What they give is not money, but hope!
But finally, they met the enemy.
A group of bandits!
The old army cut the rope that bound the refugee and handed him the horizontal knife!
"I'm the Ninth Cavalry Team of the Xuange Camp of the Wuwei Army of the Tang Dynasty, Guo Yuanzheng!"
"Xuanwei Army, Lu Shisi!"
Two soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, fighting side by side!
The military force of the Tang Dynasty was once again demonstrated vividly. Although the enemy was outnumbered, the two of them still wiped out the sand bandits.
However, Guo Yuanzheng, in order to save Lu Shishi, threw a gun to kill a sand bandit, but because he had removed his armor before, he was stabbed through the chest by the sand bandit!
Xu Fei finally thought about why the camera showed the armor that Guo Yuanzheng had taken off before!
The foreshadowing has already been laid.
Guo Yuanzheng, who survived the war, took off his armor in order to carry all the military expenses.
If the iron armor was still there, how could that knife kill him!
There were no last words before death, just the widened eyes and the unwilling look.
Although there were no words, Lu Shishi understood!
Silence is better than sound at this time!
Lu Shisi looked around blankly, and could only ask Guo Yuanzheng, a veteran of the Tang Dynasty, to close his eyes!
Lu Shishi walked to the pile of money bags and held them one by one while chanting the earliest words: "It's all mine, it's all mine!"
But Xu Fei knew that the two were completely different.
It's all his, yes, Guo Yuanzheng is dead, and the remaining responsibilities are all his!
"Get rich, get rich, it's all mine!"
Lu Shishi roared loudly, as if he wanted to use this voice to vent!
He worked hard to bring joy and the joy of getting rich into his voice.
That was his only encouragement to himself in despair!
He staggered while walking in the yellow sand of the desert, dragging the heavy military expenses with him.
What I said earlier seemed to echo in my mind again.
"Oh, what can you do with so much money? Buy him dozens of acres of land, get his beautiful wives, drink every day, and eat meat every meal!"
Now that the veteran is dead, he is the only one left.
He can definitely do this!
But, he didn’t!
Perhaps, he is not as noble as the veteran, but he knows that he must climb to Xizhou City!
Looking at Lu Shishi, this arrogant guy who always likes to cheat and cheat, Xu Fei didn't feel any contempt at this moment.
