Experiences change a person, but they don't change who they are. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But the experience changed the way Yanbei thinks.

His living people are not out of benevolence, or at least not as benevolent as the general and the lord are benevolent and righteous, as Lu Yi said. In the world, Han'er and my clan are well-dressed, and they preach etiquette and music, that is, Yanbei is a bandit who is self-deprecating, and it is not surprising that he has some pity.

Whether he is a rebel, a rebel or a Han army, whether he is an outlaw, a traitor general, or a Yan general, he is first and foremost a person.

It is a human being, and when he sees the suffering of others, he will naturally have a sadness in his heart, and he will naturally have the pity of standing up.

In the past two years, there have been many experiences, and the style of this ranger who used to be a careless man has changed a lot.

He never regretted going north alone to vote for Zhang Chun, that was what he wanted and his way, the way for a man to establish his life.

But if he is given another chance, he may hesitate.

Perhaps he would rather bear the disloyalty in his heart than guard Jizhou and protect hundreds of thousands of people from the poison of Montenegro.

Just as there is a little difference between the loyalty in Yanbei's heart and the loyalty in this world, the benevolence and righteousness in Yanbei are also slightly different from the general benevolence and righteousness in the world.

He will save people, and if he does everything he can, he will live, and he will save one of the afflicted people he sees. But what about what is beyond his power? He can't snatch the fields of the Zhongshan clan for the sake of these hungry people to save others, right?

It is indeed cruel to recruit hungry people to be dead soldiers, go to the south of Hengshui to die in a desperate situation, and use their affection for their wives and children, the old and the young, to sell their lives.

But Yanbei has no choice, he is not a god, and he can't conjure more food.

This is just the hungry people who have heard the wind in the past few days, and there are thousands of hungry people in Zhongshan Country, and he can't afford to raise them!

The next day, 1,800 hungry people in ragged clothes were recruited in the city, and their names were incorporated into the new tribe in exchange for inferior wooden spears, halberds, and even sticks and long poles, as their only weapons, and they were given three days' rations.

Tai Shi Ci and Zhang Jaw looked at each other at the head of the city, and finally couldn't help but ask Yan Bei: "Captain, why do you give them three days' rations, and the food will be distributed to those hungry people when it arrives in their hands, and they may only be able to eat for one day, how can this teach them to fight against the Montenegrin army?" ”

"Of course they will distribute it to the hungry people, and what Yan wants is that they will distribute the food to the hungry people." Yan Bei glanced at Tai Shi Ci, raised his arm and pointed at the crowd outside the city and said, "If you don't give them food, they will die in the next two days...... I didn't give them food because I was afraid that I would get used to it, but I didn't want to save them. Let them eat, and when they have enough food, they can go to the other side to attack the enemy. ”

Zhang Jaw frowned, listening to Yan Bei's meaning, did he plan to ask them to cross the Hengshui in these two days?

Difficult!

Sure enough, but in the middle of the day, the young man who was elected by the hungry people called Jiao Touch entered the city to look for Yanbei, and after a full meal, his face was much better, and he said to Yanbei: "General Yan, we plan to cross the river tonight and kill some black mountains in exchange for food." ”

"Well, I know you're going to cross the river." Yan Bei glanced at Jiao Feng, which was what he expected, nodded and walked towards the military tent, saying, "You come with me." ”

Jiao touched the promise and followed Yan Bei into the military tent under the strange eyes of the battalion sergeant.

Everyone knew that he was a hungry man outside the city, and even more so the new pawns in the camp. In fact, many of the new soldiers recruited from the counties in the camp were no different from the hungry people who were anxious, and they also defected to Yanbei when they were hungry and became new soldiers.

But their fates were very different.

The new soldiers in the city have armor, and no matter how worn and dirty the leather armor is, and no matter how rotten and rusty the wooden spear is, it is also leather armor and weapons. But what are the new pawns among the hungry people outside the city? Half of them used wooden spears, and half of them cut wood into spears, not to mention that they had no armor to ...... What is even more miserable is that the new soldiers in the city practice during the day and go out of the city to cut wheat, although they are tired, they can always return to the city camp at night to boil some hot water and eat some corn porridge.

There is nothing for the new pawns outside the city, and the grain and grass have to be exchanged for the head.

People call the new pawn outside the city the Zhongshan Dead Soldiers, and maybe in a few days, they will become Zhongshan Dead Ghosts.

Entering the military tent, Yan Bei opened the topographic map of Zhongshan and pointed to Hengshui and said: "You don't cross the river from one place, otherwise crossing the river in a big way will be discovered by the Montenegrin scouts, and they will never be their opponents after gathering troops into battle...... Remember? You are not going to fight the Montenegrin army, but to kill their scouts. ”

"Don't worry, general, I know." Jiao Yan nodded calmly, and said to Yan Bei: "I want to cross the Hengshui in a team of fifty people all over the riverbank, and the ranks are connected with each other, so that they can bring back the first level with more battles and fewer battles." ”

"Yo!" Yan Beiben leaned over and looked at the map, and when he heard Jiao Touch say this, he turned around and nodded one after another, this son can be taught! He immediately said: "It's good that you understand, by the way, tell your subordinates not to covet the grain in the fields on the other side, even if you can cut it down and cross the river, you won't be able to bring it back, but it will be easy to be broken by Montenegro." ”

"This ......"

Jiao was in trouble, he originally planned to let the dead soldiers cross the Hengshui, if he could see the scouts of the Black Mountain Army, he would use five enemies and one or even ten enemies to secretly harvest the fast-growing grain in the fields on the opposite bank under the premise of saving his life, but at this time, he was forbidden by Yanbei, and he couldn't help but look embarrassed.

"Don't do this or that, for your own good, you can't bring back the food after harvesting, just take your clothes in your pocket, how much can you get back?" Yan Bei chuckled, of course he knew what this group of hungry and scared people would think, but he didn't feel so close when he raised his hand like patting Jiao's shoulder, his hand fell in mid-air and clenched his fist and said: "Don't worry, you will kill some of the scouts swimming on the river bank in the next few days, and in a few days I will use the walker to meet on the Heng River, without the scouts to stop me, it will be enough for you to eat one hundred and ten acres of new grain in one night." ”

After that, Yanbei didn't forget to add a sentence, "I have the burden of the state capital, and I won't grab that grain from you." ”

Jiao Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, in fact, what he was most afraid of was that Yanbei would ask them for those grains...... Hurriedly bowed down and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the general, thank you for the kindness of the general!" ”

"Okay, eat my food, you are also Yan's subordinates, you don't have to see outside. There is really not enough food to feed so many people. Yan Bei waved his hand and said: "You let your subordinates save their lives, recently the scouts reported that there are still hungry people in all parts of Zhongshan who are looking forward to gathering, and those who can pick up weapons will be counted as your subordinates, you go down." ”

"No!"

Jiao touched away, and Yan Beili sighed in the military tent.

These dead soldiers crossed the river to attack the Montenegrin scouts, and it is not known how many people will come back alive, or how many heads of the Montenegrin army will be brought back. His headquarters could not cross the river, so he could only stalemate with Tao Sheng on the riverbank, and now it was up to him to see if these Zhongshan dead soldiers could cause enough chaos for Tao Sheng's scouts.

It is best to force Tao Sheng to use a large army to go out of the city, and it is also a good thing to bring back a little bit of the head of the Black Mountain scout, the most unfortunate and the worst, and Yanbei himself has not suffered much loss.

It's just that Yanbei still hopes that Jiao Touch's people can survive as much as possible and bring back enough heads to give him a reason to save the lives of those hungry people.

The upper reaches of Hengshui have already sent a group of soldiers and horses to build a dam to block the water, and it will take at least 20 years to see results.

If it drags on for another twenty years, you can harass Tao Sheng with all your might.

……

The sky was getting dark, and some figures flashed around the north bank of Hengshui.

Jiao Touch carried a somewhat curved wooden spear, looked at the sky where he couldn't see the figure clearly dozens of steps away, waved his hand and said softly: "Cross the river!" ”

As the words fell, the ragged footmen around them whispered to each other, and then scattered in all directions, slowly touching the riverbank.

There was no one in the line of thousands of people who raised fire, and the Montenegro in the distance could not see them clearly, and they could not see the Montenegro either, so they began to cross the river with fear of darkness.

The constant water is not deep, the narrow place is more than ten zhang, and the widest place is only nearly a hundred zhang, swimming is not a problem for many people, the difficulty is how to pass through the bonfire set up by the Montenegrin army on the opposite bank on the shore.

In order to prevent the Yanbei army from crossing the river at night, the scouts of the Black Mountain Army piled up bonfires with stones every few miles along the Hengshui River, and the rising flames illuminated the surrounding distance of more than ten steps...... It stands to reason that those campfires are scattered too far away, and there is some use for guarding against the army, but it is of little use to them stragglers. But the bad thing is that most of the dead people who are scorched are blindfolded, and if they don't use the light of the bonfire to take five or ten steps away, their eyes will be black.

They should try to touch the edge of the campfire so that it is not yet lit by the campfire.

Jiao Touch's body is very good, he has been studying martial arts since he was a child, if it weren't for the disaster caused by the Montenegrin Army's trip out of the mountains this time, maybe in a few years, he would have been able to recommend himself to the county government office to seek a small official, or enter the county national soldiers to be a general, but unfortunately the appearance of the Montenegrin Army changed everything.

The clan was victimized by thieves, and the family was scattered, and then the family's fields were destroyed by the Montenegrin army...... In a fit of rage, Jiao touched and killed a few bandits with his martial arts, and then took his family to hide in the mountains.

After that, he slept in the open air, and the accompanying swords were all changed for food, but he still couldn't eat.

Later, I heard that General Yan, who occupied Jizhou last year, led the Han army south from Youzhou to quell the chaos, so he took his family out of the mountains and forests, and followed the news of the Yanbei army's actions to Wangdu, and because the hungry people were just and convincing when they robbed each other of food, he was elected as the leader, and joined Yanbei with the dead.

None of them had fought before, and none of them knew what to do when they crossed the riverbank, and if it were not for hunger in their stomachs to drive away fear in their hearts, they would never have crossed the constant water with their inferior weapons.

And just after crossing the Heng Shui, Jiao Touch was about to gather the soldiers beside him with a wooden spear, when he heard a small exclamation from the river to the north, followed by a distant and chaotic shout of killing.

Ignoring the soaked clothes on his body, he ran wildly with his spear.

As soon as he crossed the Hengshui, someone was discovered by the Black Mountain scouts!
