Chapter 92: Wolf smoke!

The swaying bonfire, the swaying eyes, the swaying expression, the crumbling atmosphere;

Everything in the entire fortress seemed to be so panicked in Zheng Fan's silence.

The barbarian soldiers standing around unabashedly cast their eyes on the women in the corner, as if they wanted to set fire to them.

From that night, when they followed the young patriarch’s path to the fort, until now, they are like wild beasts restrained by an iron cage.

From north to south,

and here,

foreign country,

war,

dark night,

Everyone is an element of loosening the cage, and some of their instincts are gradually recovering.

The people of Qian State call Yan people Yanmanzi, which is actually a kind of regional discrimination, which is similar to the mutual dissatisfaction between various regions in later generations.

But whether they are people from Yan or Qian, the name given to barbarians has long gone beyond the concept of contempt among similar circles, and has even risen to the concept of race.

The barbarians are a group of human-shaped beasts!

Liang Cheng stood on the edge, closing his eyes slightly, as if he couldn't see everything around him.

Zheng Fan slowly raised his head, his eyes slowly swept over the surrounding barbarian soldiers, and said in barbarian language:

"Miss a woman?"

"Whether it is a woman from the Yan Kingdom or a woman from the Qian Kingdom, whoever lets me know that if I touch them, I will make anyone regret being born in this world."

"Pfft !"

"Plop!"

All the barbarians knelt on the ground, trembling.

Liang Cheng also opened his eyes slightly.

"I will only say these words once. When other members of your tribe come later, tell them for me."

After saying that,

Zheng Fan stood He stood up and walked towards the steps of the fort.

Liang Cheng glanced around and gave a simple order in barbaric language:

"Take care, be on guard."

Then,

He also walked up the steps.

Tonight, there are not many stars in the sky, nor the moon. I guess it will rain tomorrow.

Zheng Fan heard the footsteps coming from behind and naturally knew who was following him, so he said:

"Do you think the order I just gave was very unkind? ”

Some things are difficult to avoid.

Every war killing will be mixed with the screams of women.

"Subordinates are only responsible for executing the orders of their master."

"I thought you would think I was giving blind orders."

Of course Zheng Fan knew that, Let the barbarians under your command indulge a little, and it will encourage their soldiersQi, secondly, you can also gain their loyalty.

The young and Dangerous boys of later generations choose their boss to see which boss can give them food, money to spend, and sleep for their little girls.

"I understand."

"Actually, if they are not barbarians, but serious Yan cavalry, I don't think they can play with those women. I will object.

Anyway, the woman in this fort is also doing this for a living, and she is not a good family;

I can just give a small amount of money as a thank you after the work is done. Everyone is happy."

"My lord, I think the women below will be willing to receive the barbarians if I give them money."

Zheng Fan turned around and looked at them. Liang Cheng's eyes were a little deep,

slowly said:

"I'm just trying to double standard, okay?"

"Okay."< /p>

“I don’t feel that I am from the Yan country. To be honest, I don’t have much sense of belonging to the Yan country. Originally, I might have a little sense of belonging. If I lived in Hutou City for a longer time, if I didn’t go through that time of baiting civilians.”

Liang Cheng stood aside and listened quietly.

“I don’t have a sense of belonging to the Qian Kingdom. Maybe because I was an official of the Yan Kingdom, I have an instinctive rejection of the Qian Kingdom.

But for the barbarians, even the Sha Tuoque Stone is still lying in the coffin in Cuiliu Castle. I respect him, but I have no good impression of the barbarians.

I don’t know where I stand, but I don’t know where I stand. If I see the barbarians attacking the women here, I will be angry."

"Lord, you don't have to explain so much to me."

"I'm afraid that my willfulness will affect you. You will lead them to make an impact."

"My lord, you are too worried. You underestimate our methods. We have been working hard to control them since they entered Meijiawu that night. Lord, your image has become a terrifying devil in their hearts.

The blind man will also brainwash them every night.

In their hearts, you are the devil. It is extremely normal for the devil to ask them to do things that go against their own nature.

They may even feel that this is punishment from the devil, but they are happy with this punishment.

The order you just gave may seem difficult for them to accept, but in fact, the pleasure produced in their hearts may be stronger than that of women."

"... ..." Zheng Fan.

So, you really shouldn’t be lazy because you have to practice needlework at night, so you can’t get up early to accompany them to train;

Because you have to practice needlework at night, you have to go to bed early and can’t accompany them. Do ideological education and study;

Otherwise, you don’t even know what kind of image your subordinates have arranged for you in the minds of these barbarian soldiers.

This image,

What a transformationWhat a state!

"In fact, any army using wine, meat, money, food or women to boost morale is inherently inferior. The most important thing is to attract them with an existence that transcends material things."

Zheng Fan glanced at Liang Cheng and said:

"Your thoughts are very dangerous."

"The blind man gave them a dream. In the dream, they Later, they returned to the desert, and with our support, they established a tribe of their own.

In that tribe, there was no war, no killing, but only cattle, sheep, oasis, and the joy of children. Laughter.

For this dream, to realize this dream, these five hundred barbarians will follow us to the death. Even if only one of them survives, that person will witness this dream for them. ”

“I suddenly felt that they were a little pitiful.”

“The really pitiful people are those who have no dream of living a mediocre life in this world.”

"Okay, let's get down to business."

"Yes, Lord, what are you going to do next?"

"What else can you do? Oh, this I didn’t say hello to the blind man beforehand. If we go back like this, do you know what the blind man will do to me?”

“The blind man doesn’t dare to do anything to me.”

"He will say that Zheng Fan, captain of the anti-pornography brigade of the Cuiliubao Police Station of the Dayan Empire, led his warriors to bravely cross the border and go to neighboring countries to help them fight pornography and help them build a spiritually civilized society."

"In short, I am not willing to go back like this. This is not the war I imagined. Look at those guys hugging us when we just entered. The reaction of squatting down is like fighting against pornography!"

Liang Cheng nodded and said: "This is not the battle that my subordinates imagined."

Zheng Fan put his hands on the battlements. He said with emotion:

"We thought that Qian Guo was too normal before."

Liang Cheng nodded, obviously agreeing with this idea.

Because during the previous night attack, it was not only Zheng Fan but also him who battled with the air.

When he thought of how he had hidden, detoured and lurked when he was approaching the fortress, he, a cold zombie, actually had the illusion that his face was getting hot.

“A hundred years of peace and the replacement of several generations are enough to wear away too many things. In fact, I should have thought of it earlier. After seeing the ruins of Cuiliu Castle, I I should have thought of it.

But at that time, I always thought that it was because of the arrogance of the Yan people and the fact that they looked down on the Qian Kingdom and the Jingnan Army was stationed in Yinlang County, so the border town defense system was abandoned. < /p>

But this is actually the inevitable result of time. If there is too much peace, machines will rust, let alone people.

Did you just hear what the fort commander said, Qian Guobian? There is a serious shortage of military rations and pay, and the shortage is also serious. As a fort commander, he can even make money forMoney turned a fort that was the frontline of the Yan defense system into a red tent. ”

“It is a fate that no dynasty can stop if officials govern the country and the military is ineffective. "Liang Cheng said.

"Tsk, I'm really looking forward to it. This generation of emperors of the Yan Kingdom is a powerful leader, and this generation of Zhenbei Hou obviously has an unusual relationship with the emperor. relation.

I don’t know very well what the Jingnan Army is like, but you and I have seen how elite the Zhenbei Army is.

If the Emperor of the Yan Kingdom had finished dealing with the clan forces in the country, appeased the desert barbarians, and then transferred the Zhenbei Army to the south, the Qian Kingdom’s already eroded defense line would be able to stop the Zhenbei Army. Three hundred thousand cavalry? "

Liang Cheng shook his head and said with certainty:

"It can't be stopped. "

There is no objection to this, because the Zhenbei Army is indeed the first-class cavalry in the world.

"However, that is a story for another day. Next, I plan to..."

As he spoke, Zheng Fan turned around and pointed south,

“Continue going south! "

Liang Cheng sighed and said: "My Lord, please allow me to say something against my will. "

"You said. ”

“It’s too dangerous and too reckless. "

"What about the truth? ”

“The Lord is wise. ”

Obviously, Liang Cheng was not satisfied either.

At this time, the sound of horse hoofs came from below the fort. Because the hoofs were wrapped, the sound sounded a bit dull.

The barbarian soldiers in the fort immediately opened the door and let in the companions outside.

"There is one more thing that I need to ask my lord, what should I do with the remaining people in this fort? "

Zheng Fan did not answer, but asked:

"What do you think? "

…………

" Bang! ”

A golden-handled dagger was thrown in front of Zhao Changgui by Liang Cheng.

After Zhao Changgui and the chief minister beside him saw the golden luster, they both There was greed in his eyes.

This fort has one commander, Zhao Changgui. Originally, there should be four commanders, with forty guards under his command, plus some others. If it is fully staffed, there will be about fifty people.

But the actual strength of this fortress is only half of it.

The extremely large army of the Qian Kingdom. It's probably just on paper. The share of empty pay is already close to half.

One of the two chiefs who was cut off earlier has become the unlucky one. .

So, the two highest-ranking people in the fort are Zhao Changgui and the chief named Xu Defu.

"Dayan's army will move south soon. , we are the pathfinding vanguard of the army. Now, before me, there are two choices.

At the same time, it is also the choice of both of you;

One, I am giving the order right now to kill everyone in your fortress and bring back your heads as military merit. "

When Liang Cheng said this,

both Zhao Changgui and Xu Defu showed panic in their eyes.

"The second option is very difficult. It's simple. We can pretend that what happened tonight never happened. As for how to deal with the dead and how to keep the survivors sealed, you two should have your own methods.

I can even promise you that when Dayan’s army goes south in the future, you will all be able to survive, and a share of the credit will be waiting for you. "

This is actually inclusion.

"I do, I do! "Xu Defu immediately kowtowed and shouted.

"I am willing too, I am willing too! "Zhao Changgui also kowtowed immediately, fearing that his performance would not be as positive as Xu Defu's.

"Today, your fortress has been breached by us. Once this matter is publicized, your superiors will definitely not let it go. you. "

"Yes, yes, we understand, we understand. "Zhao Changgui nodded immediately.

"I left in a hurry and didn't bring much gold and silver with me, but we will send someone to contact you in the future. As long as you work for us with peace of mind, your benefits will be indispensable. "

"Thank you, General! "

"Thank you, General, for your support! "

Liang Cheng saw that it was almost done and walked out of the room.

Xu Defu and Zhao Changgui, who were kneeling on the ground, looked at each other and could see the fear and happiness in each other's eyes.

The border has been peaceful for almost a hundred years, but they unexpectedly encountered the Yan people. Fortunately, the two of them saved their lives and may even get rich.

It's a good rest. In half an hour, all four hundred barbarian soldiers came out of the fortress, aiming directly in the direction of the direction!

They still have a lot to do tonight, like finally getting out. Naughty children, they will never go home until they have enough fun.

Zhao Changgui and Xu Defu stood on the wall of the fort, watching the cavalry troops heading south gradually disappear from their sight.

"Huh..."

Xu Defu breathed a sigh of relief,

At this moment,

He was finally sure that he was true. He survived.

Zhao Changgui sat down with his legs weak, holding his chest with one hand to calm his heartbeat. The feeling of surviving the disaster made him suffocated.

"Fort Commander, we will go down later. We will gather all our men and talk to them about the matter. Tell them that if the news about the capture of the fort today is leaked, none of us will be able to survive. , and once those two thorns are dealt with, the women in the fort will not allow them to receive guests in the near future, and this matter can almost be buried. "

"Well, those who died reported that they had deserted. Anyway, this kind of thing is very common in various forts. MingFind a place nearby to dispose of their bodies. It should be done cleanly and without leaving any traces. "

"Well, I understand, but maybe this is also a fortune for us. The Yan people are finally going south. If others don't know, don't we ourselves know how bad our army is? What happened?

We don’t have enough food and clothing, and the officials in the city only know how to recite poems and compose poems, and whip our warriors;

The military generals only know how to drink the soldiers’ blood and deduct our food and wages. We can't even fill our stomachs.

Once the Yan people go south, we can't stop it. We really can't stop it. If we can establish a relationship with the Yan people now, we can save our lives in the future, and maybe we can. Win a good future! "

Zhao Changgui nodded and said: "You are right. Sooner or later, this place belongs to the Yan people, and we, sooner or later, will be the Yan people." "

Then,

Zhao Changgui said again:

"Go down now and call out those people from our hometown to control the situation. Don't make any mistakes. "

"Okay, Fort Commander, I'll go right away. "

Xu Defu walked past Zhao Changgui and went down the steps.

But at this moment,

an arm suddenly caught his neck from behind. , and then, the dagger with the golden handle was stabbed hard into Xu Defu's neck.

"Poof!" ”

Xu Defu turned his head and looked at Zhao Changgui in disbelief.

Looking at this ordinary man, he was very greedy for money, and even wanted to pay for the money earned by the women in the fortress with their flesh. The skinned Fort Commander

"You...you...why...why...what..."

The neck was covered. The dagger pierced and blood was flowing out, but Xu Defu still struggled to spit out these words.

It was obvious that everyone had just agreed and discussed it, why...why?

While Zhao Changgui continued to strangle Xu Defu's neck, he gasped in a trembling voice Said:

“No, I didn’t want anyone to be greedy for Yan people’s merits, and I didn’t kill you for this. ”

“Then…………Then…………why…………”

Zhao Changgui put his mouth to Xu Defu’s ear and continued to tremble:

p>

"Don't you see who is standing next to Yan Ren? It's a barbarian, it's a barbarian!

The Yan people have colluded with the barbarians, they are going south together, they are going south together!

I...I...I can't, I can't just look at it, I can't, I can't, many people will die, many, many people will die. "

"You..."

Xu Defu's body trembled for the last time and stopped moving.

He died with a heart filled with confusion. Yes, thatHis eyes were wide open, showing his unwillingness.

Zhao Changgui let go of his hand and looked at Xu Defu's body lying under him.

He stood up slowly, supported the battlements with his hands and began to walk forward.

More than ten years ago, Zhao Changgui spent a lot of money to inherit his father's position as fort commander. He had never even killed anyone in his life.

Because his father had never seen the Yan people's cavalry in his life, he had not seen either, but he often saw the Yan people's caravans.

When Zhao Changgui stepped on the steps leading to the sentry tower, his feet trembled and he fell to the ground with a "thud".

He did not get up in a hurry, but held his head and sobbed softly.

He is afraid, because he knows that once what happened in the fort today is leaked, according to the law, he will definitely die!

He is not a scholar, and there is a tradition of not punishing scholar-officials in the country, but he has never been merciless when it comes to killing thieves like him!

"It will die, it will die, it will die..."

Zhao Changgui kept mumbling,

But slowly ,

He raised his arms again and let himself get up,

Then,

he followed the steps and continued to climb to the sentry platform.

Finally,

He climbed to the sentry stand.

He bit his lip with his teeth, drawing blood. He kept sniffing, and tears kept spinning in his eyes.

He took out the Huozhezi from his arms with trembling hands,

"Yan people...barbarians...Yan people...barbarians... ..."

Zhao Changgui has never read a book. He doesn't know any big principles. He is greedy for money. Otherwise, he would not open the red tent in the fort. During the day, it attracts soldiers from all over the fort to come here. .

He loves money, he is afraid of death,

But he just doesn’t know why,

while watching hundreds of barbarian cavalry heading south in front of him. At this time,

his heart suddenly panicked.

"Huh...huh...huh..."

Zhao Changgui breathed calmly, holding the fire folding piece in his left hand, ready to light the ingredients, and then put the Smoke rose.

Zhao Changgui has long forgotten what the colors of the smoke and what each of them means. He has never lit it, and neither has his father, but he feels that he should light it now. , he felt he should do this.

He thinks he is crazy, but crazy...just crazy!

The Huozhezi was sent under the lead...

"Bang!"

A stone hit Zhao Changgui's hand, and the Huozhezi rolled down. land.

Zhao Changgui raised his head in astonishment and saw the man who had appeared by the wall of the sentry tower at some unknown time.Two people.

He had met these two people before. One was obviously the person in charge, and the other had previously dropped a gold dagger that he had used to kill Xu Defu.

"I said, your method will be very dangerous."

Zheng Fan said to Liang Cheng calmly.

Liang Cheng shook his head and said: "My negligence."

"This is because of your personality. You don't like to analyze human nature. You think it is unnecessary and you are too lazy." Go ahead and learn from the blind man."

Liang Cheng turned to look at Zhao Changgui.

Zhao Changgui sat slumped on the ground. He knew that he had no chance. A look of despair appeared on his face.

"Bang!"

Zheng Fan threw a knife in front of Zhao Changgui.

Zheng Fan pointed at the knife and said:

"I'm a man. I'll give you some dignity and kill yourself."

Zhao Changgui picked it up. He picked up the knife on the ground,

nodded,

held the handle of the knife with both hands,

first pointed the edge of the knife at his stomach,

He hesitated for a moment,

then clamped the knife edge on his neck again,

his face was almost stained with tears and nose.

"Clang..."

The knife was thrown to the ground by Zhao Changgui again.

Zheng Fan squinted his eyes and said:

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Changgui leaned back and leaned against the wall, his face There was a bit of embarrassment on his face,

He said with some embarrassment:

"Do me a favor, do it...do it...kill me..."

Liang Cheng said:

"Why?"

Zhao Changgui wiped the tears and snot from his face with his sleeves,

said:< /p>

"I am making you laugh, I am too timid to commit suicide..."
