The crowd rushing over the mountains and plains amidst the shouts suddenly missed a lot of the first meal, and loud screams and anger broke out.
"There are pitfalls..."
"Be careful.."
"Don't push me..."
"Push you tortoise son..."
"You guys, stop now..."
Those who were missing were lying in a deep ditch full of stagnant water, screaming, moaning, and pleading for help as they stuck on the sharpened stakes; then there were also people who couldn’t help but scream. I stepped over, but stepped on the inconspicuous slope of the ditch, and slid down again, pressing down the people below to form a string.
Then someone leaned over with the sharpened bamboo pole and screamed again; but the foot was pierced by the bamboo stick inserted in the soil, and he squatted bloody on the ground and couldn't move forward. Up.
Then, someone stepped on their backs and jumped over them impatiently. However, they were dragged to the ground by the low and indistinguishable companions. Only then did they discover that there were still many belts behind these footmarks. A short rope with an iron barb.
And after their delay, the workers who were working on the signal tower construction site also suddenly reacted, and amidst the sound of warning whistle, they gathered towards the nearby long and short tools and other people who called their hands.
But faster than them, it was the soldiers holding the bows and crossbows. They stood condescendingly on the scaffolding made of bamboo and iron hoops, sending out an arrow like a flying arrow. It is almost a true case that fell into these assailants who were blocked by simple trenches, foot marks, and ropes.
Then, the attackers who rushed the most violently and called the most violently fell to the ground one by one with quite precision.
Then these laborers holding various tools and ironware rushed forward with more encouragement, waved up in groups, and threw the "thief" who was blocked from the periphery and crowded into a group with fear and foot. The various percussive screams of broken heads and broken hands and feet.
In between the fights, these attackers found that their swordsmen were not even as good as the tools against the laborers. Almost all the equipment used by the opponent is made of fine iron, and between a few blows, the edge of the blade is broken, or the connecting rod is simply broken and broken;
So they, who were already in the wind, inevitably became even more demoralized and their hearts were shaken, and they turned around and fled.
I don’t know how long later, as the leader of these local armed forces, the former Kuizhou celebrity Song Renchu fled in the mountains with his teeth; because in order to give him a chance to escape and create a chance to escape, he finally followed more than a dozen family and sons. The trilogy has all fallen into the enemy one after another.
As the saying goes, "the son does not talk about ghosts and spirits", but the little prestigious celebrities in his place are reduced to relying on the tricks of pretending to be fools to instigate the villagers and wild people to act, but it is also helpless.
Because these peaceful thieves are too harsh to belong to the local gentry and prominent families. Not only will they destroy their homes and seize their land and properties, but even dismantle their clan kinship that they have maintained for generations, and become a home for many small households.
He had always tried repeatedly and relied on the recommendation of his family to enter the city as a leisurely bookkeeper; even in a turbulent world, he was lucky and thoughtful of peace and security. But I didn't expect that the thieves who were turbulent in the world would still be killed.
As a result, countless human tragedies began to take place one after another in their first hopes and wealthy people. Although he escaped the liquidation of the old officials by the thieves because of his quick vision, he was appointed a new one. Ministry.
But soon there was bad news. His old father, the contemporary patriarch known as "Song Taigong", also serves as Lizheng. After being ransacked, he was taken to his own tribe to be exposed and brought to the public trial. He was scared to death on the spot.
There is also his Yue family, known as Chen Wentai, a great benevolent person on the "Fu Fifth Street" in Zigui City. He was beheaded by his servants for exposing the so-called cruel methods and lawlessness, as well as his mother-in-law, aunts and brother-in-laws. All of them were deprived of their possessions and sent to Lingxi to do hard labor.
Such heavy new hatreds and old hatreds can only be repaid back with a double reward. Therefore, he didn't hesitate to get drunk and killed the grass thief leader who was supervising him, and set fire to fire and fled the city.
He ran back to the village to gather the tribesmen who had fled and disappeared. He waded through the mountains and rivers to the villages to grieve the grievances. With the great righteousness, he gathered the villagers and tutu groups who were holding their own sides.
Then, he plunged into the constant confrontation and struggle with the grass thieves who occupied the local area; first attacked the thieves who went out alone, then ambushed and intercepted their sentry teams, and even actively attacked some weakly defensive strongholds; gradually Run and exclude them from the towns and villages, but they can only be trapped in the towns.
Therefore, after the Jingnan Army, who represented the court, returned, they also took the county seat and the state seat together, and killed the grass thieves and the people who served as tigers. It was also an extremely happy and enmity.
However, the good times did not last long. The Jingnan Army, who originally occupied the three states of the Xiajiang River, was in a good situation and suddenly retreated along the river without saying goodbye. Then those peaceful thieves who were cruel and ruthless came back home.
As a result, the ten miles and eight villages were horrified and retreated, and there were many fugitives. His newly-appointed regimental training team immediately shrank more than half of his staff, leaving only those who were already homeless or had nowhere to go.
He wanted to retreat to a few remote stockades in the inland, so as to deal with the thief army for some time before making plans. But I don't want these peaceful thieves to be more ruthless than the previous grass thieves; they have set up villages on the plains of the river that they occupy, attracting those poor sticks who have no place to join them.
So this time, the old fate of the landowners in the mountain villages who live in one place is dead. After all, no matter how vast they have mountains, slopes, and waters, they have to work and cultivate to get something; so all kinds of scenes of arresting young people who fled and running away, and severely punishing them, are repeated again and again. The staged begins.
But afterwards, the villagers and their relatives were unable to catch them, so they began to send money, food, and women to ask for help from his native team trainer; let them help intercept and punish those who were privately committed. Want to go to the peaceful thief Zhuangzi, I don't know what it is, or an ungrateful person.
It even makes people pretend to be officials among the peace thief, privately deceive and seduce those young people who intend to seduce the thieves, and then be exposed by the main family and punished cruelly by the family; or simply attacked in the name of the peace thief In the village, killing those who are determined to succumb to thieves is a vigilance; then the landlord will come out to show good and comfort people's hearts, so as not to miss them.
However, this situation has not been maintained for long. The Taiping thieves who have just been established have also been killed immediately; under the leadership of the mud legs that have escaped, they have blocked all the intersections to rush, and have a catch for all kinds of suspects. One, the people sent by Song Renchu were quickly cleaned up;
Many people who pretended to be peaceful thieves had their heads chopped off and hung them on the road as a warning. Then, Song Renchu found that the villages where he could get help, shelter, and hide were becoming fewer and fewer;
The strongholds and checkpoints that the Taiping thieves constantly set up not only look at the passages in and out of the mountain, but also control the flow of rice, salt, tea and wine cloth in the mountain in disguise. This is stuck at the heart of many people;
There are many crossing mountain cards that are difficult to use. As long as a wooden fence and dozens of bows and arrows are enough, it is enough to let people go down or stop them for a long time, and then there will be fully armed thieves fighting to support and respond.
Although Song Renchu, the Guizhou regiment, had some secret passages for training, it was a wild path used by mountain people for hunting. It would be impossible to pass with a larger number of people, not to mention letting heavy loadhorses and livestock. Passed the road.
Although some of his clerks were good at climbing to bypass the blockade and successfully attacked the thieves' checkpoints and outposts several times, there was no substantial improvement in the overall situation at the moment.
With the continuous shrinking of the scope of activities and the lack of material, their training army of the Guizhou regiment has become increasingly weak and exhausted. After all, the products that can be provided in the mountains enough to hide are limited.
And the villages and towns scattered in all the mountains and valleys, once separated, can no longer be used, let alone resist the endless force of thieves and destroy them one by one.
For the first time in this team, conflicts broke out due to lack of food, hunger, and uneven distribution; therefore, the villages and towns that were willing to support and accommodate them were also unlucky as a result. The victim of internal contradictions, and the army looted them all.
However, the use of these newly snatched objects is always limited. When everything was quickly exhausted, and there was nowhere to stand and stay in the eyes; the result was that Song Renchu, as a training envoy, was unable to stop and suppress them, and each took part of his staff and went out to find food. Splitting behavior.
And Song Renchu could only learn from the pain, and gave up his plan to continue dealing with the thief army in the mountains. And with the last point, people who are willing to follow him, ventured through the forest trails full of thorns and snakes and worms, and trudged all the way to the riverside flatland further upstream.
He intends to find the weakness of the thieves’ garrison here, based on the last more than a hundred celebrities, among those who are dissatisfied with the methods of thieves; once again pull up a man and horse; and destroy this new thief army’s new Establishing a stronghold is the first battle of their troops.
In the end, they failed. Song Renchu found a geomancy master to pretend to be a ghost, and spent a lot of time. In several villages, it was both threats and lures. He hurriedly coerced and gathered thousands of people; unexpectedly even such a group of building demons came to the end The tower's hard labor and a few sergeants couldn't beat it, so he was blocked and retreated in an aggressive counterattack on the periphery.
When Song Renchu came to a halt completely relieved, he had already fallen to sit beside a trickling mountain stream, and reflected in the clear mirror-like water was a tattered whole body, his shaved beard was stained with blood and blood. Sweat tangled into a ball of "savages".
Song Renchu, who was almost not confused, couldn't help but burst into tears at this moment. He had always been diligent in the affairs of the king and fought in the country, but why did he come here? Could it be that these grass thieves are already under great power, and they have been unable to avenge and recover them.
He complained about himself for a long time before he picked up the stream to moisturize his thirsty and cracked throat and body and mind; and with the extremely cold spring water flowing and swaying in his body, Song Renchu regretted himself. His mood calmed down slowly, but he rethinks his own way.
At least after losing these followers, he can only choose to hibernate for a while to avoid the limelight. Then wait for the opportunity to dive to those states and counties in the upper reaches of the Xiajiang River that have not yet been occupied by the thieves. I believe that with his knowledge and experience under the rule of the thief army, he may still be appointed and valued in the official position.
At this time, a squeaky sound rang behind him, and Song Renchu couldn't help but turn around to be on guard, but saw that it was an equally unkempt man staggering from among the sparse trees, with a surprise voice. Road:
"Is it Song Tuan practice... We are Li Sanyou who has led the mule and carried the pole..."
Song Renchu only then vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a person next to him at the beginning, and he couldn't help but put a little guard down and said:
"I hurt my foot a little, and I have to trouble you to carry a period of time... I will be rewarded a lot..."
"What you want, this is our blessing..."
The man named Li Sanyou repeatedly accepted.
And after climbing on the other's generous and rickety back, Song Renchu couldn't help putting down his guard even more, and amidst the slow shaking and swaying sleepy and closing his eyes, he dreamed of his undistressed wife again in his drowsiness. A shy smile appeared behind the rich and graceful Yue Zhang.
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to grab the hem of the sleeve, but he caught an empty space and suddenly fell into the endless abyss; then he woke up to find that he was not dreaming, but was really thrown off. The mountain wall, and amidst the intermittent exclaims and screams, the bumps hit the uneven rocks.
Soon after, the faceless man named Li Sanyou cringed and stood on the edge of a wooden board with a face full of fawn, facing the Taiping Sergeant Dao who was examining a bloody first-level:
"This is not just the head of Song Tuanlian, Old Thief Song; we cut it off with our own hands. You have to look carefully at the army master..."
"This is a Xuanhong reward that is worth a hundred dollars. We only need to take half of it, ah, it will be done without three... By the way, there is also a certificate of redemption...".
"And rest assured, it should be that your share will not be short, and there is no problem with redemption. It's just that people who have historical problems like you need to be supervised and lived in a different place for some time..."
The other Taiping army on duty was disapproving.
"Villages that have participated in anti-disorders must strictly implement remote resettlement and management."
"I want it, I want it... Anyway, we didn't send it to stay in this village anymore... You said we can go wherever we want to go..."
Li Sanyou nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
As the first stage of Song Renchu was circulated along the Xiajiang Road through various prefectures and counties, it finally arrived in Fengjie City, Kuizhou. The party was escorted to the city gate, but someone sighed loudly.
"Why do you want to kill my generation? Isn't it enough to live in harmony with your army..."
"I am asking myself if I have treated my village harshly, and have repeatedly given up family property to help my neighbors... Why do I have to suffer such a cry..."
However, Chen Yanzhang, who was also an officer with the army in his former year, sneered holding a handwritten booklet.
"You didn't treat the village harshly, but your relatives and slaves relied on their power. The fish and meat village was ruined for a while, and you have seen and stopped it..."
"You've helped the villagers, but you secretly instructed people to take them to rob past trips, but what do you want to say..."
"It's just an independent husband and thief who is more selfish than justice. An dare to say something to my Taiping Army to coexist in harmony..."
"If they are allowed to coexist in harmony like this casually, then most of the poor in the world really won't have any way to survive..."
—I am the dividing line —
And outside of Jiangling City, Murong Mu, who had returned and delivered the follow-up, was also receiving the expected instructions.
"You parrot, how do you teach people how to say hello? Why do you always want to make some big things, big events, now it can be regarded as fulfilling your wish..."
Chen Buju, the inspector of the scout team, who is known as "a whip" and "little white wolf" as Murongwu's immediate superior.
"At least three groups of hostile elements were cracked this time, which also involved counterfeiting bills and contraband smuggled objects... The commendation order from the Anti-Rebellion Committee will come down soon, and there may be benefits from the legendary special committee. According to it. The system and rules of the patrol team, you are now a two-level patrol officer;"
"Even I have taken your light, and I have reduced the qualification requirements for two years of transfer. Not to mention that you have been named as a temporary pro-follower... Maybe there is still a chance to return to the army. This is also a good thing for you to get out of your way with everything..." (End of this chapter)
