generation hero

The officers and soldiers of Fenzhou drove all the men and healthy women out of the crowd, Pang Changyi knelt down at the feet of the Aicheng prefect, and said: "Master, we are all ordinary people, please forgive me."

The captain said: "Pang Xingzhu, get up quickly, I want you to go to the mountain to suppress the bandits, I just want to borrow the manpower of the Xingzhu, and when the bandits in the mountain are cleared, I will naturally let you live in Fenzhou."

The governor of Aicheng twitched his eyebrows, and some left and right came up to pull Pang Changyi up and drive him into the selected males.

The officers and soldiers of Fenzhou wanted to conscript these refugees as soldiers.

When Huo Niang heard that the Fenzhou army was going into the mountain to suppress the bandits, her eyes were fixed. Before she could move, Yuan De first firmly clamped her wrist. Huo Niang struggled to break free, but the Fenzhou soldiers saw them and drove them away with their spears.

Yuan De warned Huo Niang in a low voice: "If you want to survive, be honest."

Huo Niang struggled and was dragged aside by Yuan De.

When the common people heard that the prefect of Aicheng wanted them to suppress the bandits, they were all terrified, but they had no choice but to be driven out of the camp because of the vicious officers and soldiers of Fenzhou.

With great difficulty, Liu Yanping squeezed to Yuantang's side, and asked in a low voice, "Join the army, what should I do..."

Before he could say a few words, he was interrupted by soldiers from Fenzhou.After picking out the men and women, the Fenzhou soldiers threw a few bundles of wooden sticks into the crowd. The wooden sticks were the weapons given to them, regardless of the number, whoever grabbed it got it.

The Fenzhou army marched out of the camp and drove them behind, letting the refugees walk at the front of the line.

Conscripting civilians to serve as soldiers in wartime is the most common. When Yuan Tang was guarding Baiyu, Yuan Tang also encountered Yichi people who drove civilians into battle.At this time, even those who were just stunned knew that the Fenzhou Army was going to use them as human shields in front of the army.For a moment, the whole mountain road was filled with rage and hatred, but it was no match for the dense armor and sharp front and toughness of the Fanzhou army.

The Fenzhou army seemed to have discovered the location of the bandit village, and drove them towards the valley to the west. The road became narrower and narrower, with high walls hanging on both sides.

These refugees all know that the bandits in Wushan Mountain are good at hiding in the mountains and making sneak attacks, especially in narrow and long valleys. When passing through the Wushan Mountain Road, Yuan Tang and Liu Yanping try to avoid such places.

The officers and soldiers of Fenzhou didn't care about anything else, brandishing their whips, they forcefully drove hundreds of people into the valley.

Sure enough, the rocks on the two walls rolled down, and Yuan Tang, Yuan De, and Liu Yanping also ignored the soldiers of Fenzhou behind them at this time, shouted loudly, and led the people to hide on both sides. They held up their shields to resist, but the people who walked in the front had no shields.

The number of bandits in ambush was limited, and they eventually lost to the champion of the various states, and were quickly shot to death by the champion of the various states.

After passing through a long and narrow valley, the bandit village loomed in front of us.

Bandits in Wushan Mountain have been running rampant for many years, making a living by robbing business travelers passing through the vicinity of Wushan Mountain. They have also attracted many refugees, and they gather year after year, with the number reaching thousands.

There are not only bandits in the cottage, but also their families.

Build barriers and set up sentry towers outside the cottage, just like a small city.

The gate of the village was closed tightly, and the officers and soldiers of Fenzhou stopped moving before arriving at the village, but waited in line and set up tents at the rear.

At night, the outer wall of the bandit village was closely patrolled, and the fire was not extinguished, obviously waiting in full force.The officers and soldiers of Fenzhou entered the water quietly, as if they were prostrate beasts waiting to attack, and the military tent of the prefect of Aicheng was brightly lit all night.

More than half of the refugees who were the pioneers were killed or injured in the valley.

Pang Changyi was hit by an arrow, and the military doctor simply applied medicine to bandage him, but it only temporarily stopped the bleeding.

The refugees huddled under a large round shed, with no shelter except for the grass shed above their heads.Yuan Tang and Liu Yanping touched the side of Pang Changyi.

"Join the army, Chang Shi..." Pang Changyi's face turned pale due to blood loss, his brows were frowned in pain, and his face was even more distressed, "I'm afraid I won't be able to last this time."

"Brother Pang, don't be discouraged!" Liu Yanping held his hand, along the way, everyone has mutual support and affection, at this time the status and status are all clouds, "I have seen your injury, it is not a critical point, as long as you take a good rest ,Will be fine."

Pang Changyi gasped in pain, smiled wryly and said, "Is it going to be okay?"

Liu Yanping's eyes were dark, and he said a few words to comfort Pang Changyi, which sounded very boring.

They all knew that if the Fenzhou army was going to attack the stronghold, they would probably use them as the vanguard. In just half a day, half of the hundreds of people who accompanied them had gone, and when they attacked the stronghold tomorrow, how many of these unarmed people would be left.

It is not easy to survive in troubled times, one round of war can be avoided, but the second and third times cannot be escaped.

Pang Changyi was depressed, so Liu Yanping had no choice but to tell him to take a good rest.Yuan Tang was also unhappy.Liu Yanping patted Afraid Yuantang on the shoulder, and said, "Yuan Canjun, if this continues, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to return to Nanxia alive."

Fenzhou troops were patrolling all around, and the two of them spoke in a low voice.

Yuan Tang glanced at Liu Yanping, and Liu Yanping said, "I'm not going to lie about joining the army. I don't want to die like this, and I don't want the common people to die like this."

"Want to escape?" Yuan Tang didn't want to wait for death like this, but the Fenzhou army encircled and suppressed bandits, they were numerous and well-prepared, they were just a group of refugees and could not compete with the regular army.

Besides, where can they escape, the Fenzhou army has entered the mountain to suppress the bandits, so naturally they will not allow another group of refugees to hide in the mountain, besides, the old and young accompanying them are still staying in the barracks outside the valley.

Liu Yanping looked at Yuantang firmly, Yuantang's eyes flickered, he lowered his head subconsciously, Liu Yanping supported Yuantang's shoulders, and said: "Join the army, don't seek other methods, we... these people may not be able to leave Wushan alive. "

Yuan Tang was still a little dazed, but Liu Yanping looked towards the cottage in front of him, and then back to Yuan Tang. The others silently turned their gazes to Yuan Tang, and even Pang Changyi, who had kept his eyes closed, opened them.

Yuan Tang froze for a moment, shook his head and said without thinking, "Don't look at me."

Liu Yanping grabbed Yuan Tang's arm and said earnestly, "Brother Yuan Tang, there is really no other way now!"

Yuan Tang pulled back his hand vigorously, he knew what Liu Yanping meant, he couldn't wait to die, he could only resist, and resisting could not rush to die, asking for a way out.

"Aren't you going back to Nanxia? Are you going to get stuck in this ravine?" Yuan Tang said.

Liu Yanping felt a little sad at this moment, and said, "If the officers and soldiers of Fenzhou attack the stronghold tomorrow, we are just a stepping stone to be driven under the wall, so why come back to Nanxia to talk about it."

"You're crazy." For the first time, Yuan Tang felt that things were a little bit unexpected. In fact, everything has long been out of control. He said: "How can we people fight against the officers and soldiers of Fenzhou? They are large in number and have weapons and armor. It’s not about leading troops to fight against them, otherwise everyone will die in Wushan.”

Liu Yanping said: "Could it be that we can go back to Nanxia alive by just waiting for tomorrow?"

Pang Changyi also said weakly: "Both left and right are dead, and we are willing to follow the army and the long history." Those men and women who used to travel together also looked eagerly at Yuantang and Liu Yanping.

Yuantang's mind was in a mess, but Liu Yanping didn't give him more time to hesitate, and said: "We alone can't compete with the officers and soldiers of Fenzhou, and Lady Huo is still there, and we can rely on her to contact the bandits, and we can cooperate internally and externally." , No one is more familiar with the situation in this mountain than bandits, as long as we get rid of these officers and soldiers, we can go back to the camp and rescue other people..."

Yuan Tang looked at Liu Yanping with wide eyes, only hearing him speak faster and faster, seeing the obvious determination on his face, the hand holding his own arm with bulging veins.

I don't know if he had such a plan early in the morning, even thinking about contacting the bandits.Liu Yanping is not a person who loves to take risks. Although he has a straightforward personality and sometimes pedantic, he is full of everyone's style, upright and docile.However, until now, even Liu Yanping had to take risks to survive.

Yuan Tang also had to come to his senses - this moment is at the critical moment of life and death, besides taking risks, what other way can he go?

He looked around, met Liu Yanping's eyes that were red with excitement, and slowly turned his gaze to Huo Niang who was still being held by Yuan De. Huo Niang sneered when he heard what Liu Yanping said.

Yuan Tang's mind gradually became clear, he squinted his eyes, and approached Huo Niang.

"Heh, why, thinking about my aunt now, let me tell you, these Fanzhou soldiers don't treat you as living people at all. If they want to join our village, they should kowtow three times to my aunt first."

Yuan De pinched Huo Niang's wrist, Huo Niang's expression was distorted in pain, and she still looked at Yuan Tang coldly.

A group of patrolling soldiers passed by, and everyone lowered their heads. After the soldiers had gone far away, Yuan Tang said to Huo Niang: "Your brother is trapped in the village now, don't you want to rescue them?"

Huo Niang's face changed, but she scolded: "Fuck your mother, Wushan is our territory, and these people still want to trap us."

Yuan Tang's mind became more and more calm, he said: "Really, since you are so sure, why don't the people in the village come out to meet you? Just now, you only dared to shoot a few cold arrows in the canyon. There is no way to arrange an army formation in the mountain road." , you are familiar with the terrain in the mountains, you have the advantage of the location, and there are grains in the village, why don't you fight?"

Huo Niang wanted to refute, Yuantang said again: "Although I don't know why Fenzhou went into the mountain to suppress the bandits at this time, I know that Beicheng is not at peace now, and Fenzhou can't allocate many troops. If you can't suppress the bandits smoothly, you may not be able to spend time in the mountains with you. Why don't you take advantage of the moment to frustrate the limelight of the officers and soldiers."

Over there, Liu Yanping's eyes lit up when he heard Yuan Tang say that.

Huo Niang opened her mouth, rolled her eyes a few times, but looked at Yuan Tang suspiciously, and asked, "Who are you? I don't think you are like ordinary refugees."

Yuan Tang secretly admired Huo Niang's sensitivity. This girl doesn't look more careful than ordinary girls, but she is actually very sensitive. He said: "It doesn't matter who you are, the important thing is that we have a common enemy now."

Huo Niang still looked at Yuan Tang, doubting and guessing, she nodded slowly after a while.

That night, the inside and outside of Wuzi Village were very quiet. Most of the Fenzhou Army just repaired on the spot, waiting for the second day to attack and pull out the stronghold. Dawn is about to break, and it is the time when the spirit of the people is the most exhausted. valley.The Fenzhou Army sent the refugees as the vanguard to attack the village. Before the formation was formed, a whistle sounded from among the refugees at the front, and the gate of the village opened in response. The refugees threw stones at the Fenzhou Army while rushing into the village. Those who entered the cottage scattered into the forest.
