Chapter 53: The Frontier

Wu Wanying watched all this in amazement, shocked beyond measure. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"This ...... This...... These brutes! Wu Wanying looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, clenched his fists, and angrily wanted to catch up with the Mongolian horse team that was fleeing north on the grassland.

But after all, he didn't have the ability to chase and kill, so he could only look painfully at the vast grasslands in the north, and at the back of the Mongolian horse team that was getting farther and farther away.

This is a small village on the border of Datong Province. The village that had just been attacked by the Mongols was in shambles, with crippled houses burning with firelight, shattered doorways, and countless corpses.

Screams can be heard from time to time, and injured villagers are everywhere.

This spring season was supposed to be the time when everything was recovering, but when Wu Wanying came here, all he saw was such a hellish scene.

A convoy of Mongol horses in the grass valley arrived before Wu Wanying's headquarters and quickly sacked the place.

When Wu Wanying's troops came, they could only look at the fleeing Mongolian horse team and shout angrily.

"Don't look at it! It's important to save people, there should still be people here, and there are still living people! A soldier with a very loud voice shouted at Wu Wanying.

Wu Wanying clenched her fists, came back to her senses, and watched several soldiers enter the village with a calm face, cleaning up the battlefield.

He looked at the shouter that was so loud that it seemed to burst his eardrums, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Why, why don't you chase after and kill these dog tartars!" ”

"Kill, who doesn't want to kill." The famous soldier Ding Gaoliang said: "But we only have two legs, and we have to catch up." ”

"Is it just that way?" Wu Wanying felt unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart. He had thought that after joining the army, he had heard ten times more stories than he had originally expected. Unexpectedly, when he really felt these bloody realities, he realized that he still underestimated the cruelty of war.

"Yes, of course. This is the border pass of the Great Wall, and when the reinforcements from behind fill the passes, and the cavalry patrols return to normal step by step, there will be fewer and fewer holes in this wall, and those Tartars will not have a way to take advantage of the situation again. After Ding Gaoliang finished speaking, he suddenly raised a finger lightly and said in a low voice: "Shhhh......hh

After listening to this, Wu Wanying felt a little better in her heart. At this moment, he was about to react and ask where the so-called living man was. Seeing Ding Gaoliang's appearance at this moment, he suddenly realized that there was a situation, and he couldn't help but hold his breath in a low voice.

"Listen up, friends, we are a passing caravan, and we just want to buy some food, and the Tartars who have just come have retreated by themselves. You don't have to worry! Ding Gaoliang suppressed his astonishing voice and whispered to a well.

Wu Wanying stared at all this with wide eyes, and really couldn't imagine that there would be someone here.

There was silence, and there was no sound in the room.

Ding Gaoliang was very patient, and still said: "There are really no tartars in the outer world, and listening to the tone of the forehead, it is not a tartar." Friends inside, you can come out. ”

Wu Wanying suddenly reacted, Ding Gaoliang Jingshi said that he was a businessman!

But they are the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty!

Soon, a timid voice broke the silence and interrupted Ding Gaoliang's thoughts.

I heard an echo from the bottom of the well: "Daddy, mother...... Are they all gone? I...... I can't go up. ”

"There really are people!" Wu Wanying was excited, and quickly reacted, and kept shaking up the rope for fishing water by the well.

Sure enough, just by pulling, you can feel the heavy weight under the rope. There really are people inside!

As the rope was constantly pulled up, a wet child, about twelve or thirteen years old, was fished up. The child's face was pale, his eyes were confused as he looked at the world in front of him, his whole body was penetrated by the cold well blisters, and he shivered from time to time, and he looked extremely weak.

"Take this kid to a bath!" Wu Wanying couldn't help jumping to her feet when she saw this: "This look, if a random typhoid fever comes, this spring will not be able to endure it!" ”

"I'm going to boil water!" Ding Gaotian responded.

Soon, Wu Wanying carried the child into the house. It's just that as soon as she stepped into the house, Wu Wanying couldn't help but blindfold the child.

I saw that at this moment, a woman in the house, naked, her clothes were broken, and she fell on the beams of the house, and the scene was really terrifying.

At this time, the soldiers who followed into the village also received orders. Collect the corpses everywhere and bury them in a centralized manner.

There has been a contagious plague outbreak in SX. The source of the plague came from SX, which was close to the grasslands, so this expedition was quite hygienic.

When Ding Gaotian boiled the hot water, he saw Wu Wanying rushing out with a red face, ran back to the barracks, and pleaded all the way to the house with a female nurse.

"Gee, I've got a lot of work to do. What are you doing here with me? Alas, how did you still get into a yard. What, this is where you're going to use it as a health room? If you want me to say that occupying people's houses, this can be agreed to by the head of the regiment. Don't leave your hands and feet unclean! ”

"Good sister, how could I mess around, the whole village has been plagued by the Tartars, I ...... I saved someone, but, but ......," Wu Wanying said, suddenly a little embarrassed.

When the female nurse saw it, she was curious.

Ding Gaotian looked at this scene with a blank expression. But soon, as the female nurse finished cooking cleanly and walked out, everyone understood the reason.

"It turns out that it's a girl." The female nurse walked out, but she also threw a problem to the two big men: "However, we are going to the right guard of Datong at this time, and to see the scene, we also want to cross the Tuan Mountain and get out of the Great Wall." Are you going to bring a girl? ”

After the nurse finished speaking, he left.

At this time, everyone saw the little girl squatting on the ground, silent, sitting quietly on the ground and hugging her knees. It's just that his eyes are looking at a few people with his spare eyes, obviously still paying attention to everyone.

After listening to the words of the female nurse, this made Ding Gaotian and Wu Wanying difficult.

When Ding Gaotian thought of marching with a female baby, his head suddenly became big, and he said, "If you want to march with a female baby, how can you do it?" We are here to fight, not to do good. I think, let the logistics brothers send them to Datong City in a while to find a good place. ”

Shanfang is a place that resembles an orphanage, and some orphans and widows who have no one to adopt have been sent there.

"This uncle...... Not in business? The little girl tilted her head and looked at Ding Gaotian with a pair of eyes like water.

"This ...... This ......" was touched by this pair of innocent and flawless eyes that seemed to shatter at the slightest touch, but Ding Gaotian seemed to have touched the hottest flame, it was extremely hot all of a sudden, rubbing his hands, and he couldn't say a complete sentence of this or that.

In the end, it was Wu Wanying who understood Ding Gaotian's thoughts and said, "We are also afraid of your concerns." The reputation of the officers and soldiers in the past...... However, we officers and soldiers are different. Our officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have changed, and we are the soldiers of the first company of the 376th Regiment of the Second Division of the First Army of the Royal Army. We don't do bad things. ”

The little girl recognized this person who came out with her, looked at each other for a while, lowered her head, answered softly, and said: "The two benefactors saved the lives of the slave family, and the slave family should not bother." It's just that...... Please ask, Daddy, Mother...... Where did it go? ”

Wu Wanying remembered the scene of covering the little girl's eyes when she entered the door.

"They...... Went to a far place. Wu Wanying said softly.

"The slave family knows. The slave family...... I'm going to look for my father, mother. Don't make trouble for the benefactor......" As she spoke, the little girl bowed seriously, kowtowed heavily to the ancestral ranking on the lintel, and then squatted on the ground, hugged her knees, put a small bottle on the ground, and watched quietly, ignoring the two of them.

Ding Gaotian breathed a sigh of relief and was about to drag Wu Wanying away.

Wu Wanying walked a few steps, suddenly turned around, looked at the house in the courtyard, and sighed: "This is a scholarly family, but it's a pity that the Tartars have harmed ......."

"If you don't leave, I think you're going to be harmed by military law." Ding Gaotian chattered: "Originally, I estimated that there were still people alive, and it would be a disaster to save one, but if you plan to interfere more, it will be a disaster." You don't want to think about it, let the woman into the barracks, what will it become? ”

"In front of the nurses of the military hospital, you dare to say that?" Wu Wanying said a word, and immediately choked Ding Gaotian.

This Ding Gaotian doesn't look at his loud voice, he looks fierce, but he is a person with a soft heart. Especially in the face of women, she was so afraid that she couldn't stretch her hands and feet.

After a lot of muttering, Ding Gaotian suddenly paused: "By the way, isn't the child's father and mother dead?" ”

"What's in that little bottle......?" After Wu Wanying finished speaking, he turned around and strode back.

Inside, the little girl was pouring out a red pill from a small bottle. Wu Wanying, as a company hygienist, immediately recognized that this was Hedinghong, a famous poison, rushed over, snatched it away, and said, "Why don't you think about it like this?" ”

The little girl's eyes were full of tears, staring at Wu Wanying, and she choked up for a long time: "Big brother, why do you save me, let me go to find my father...... I know they're not far yet, I just want to go early, to find my father! ”

Wu Wanying looked at this scene, her heart was fierce, and she pulled the little girl and said, "You don't have a father, and I don't have a father!" Then live with me today! Live to see the way of the world, and kill those dogs and Tartars cleanly! Don't worry, what about the march, what about the military law, if I save you, I will go down forever! Go, live! ”

Speaking of me, Wu Wanying pulled the little girl and put on the white military uniform of a hygienist on herself.

The uniform was roughly the same as that of a regular soldier, but with a red character on the armband and hat. Although there is Christianity in this place of Daming, there is no possibility of making the cross a symbol of salvation. Therefore, in the end, the distinction made by the army hospital for medical staff is to write a benevolent character.

The heart of the doctor's parents, the word benevolence can best be interpreted.

Ding Gaotian looked at Wu Wanying wearing a middle single, and the little girl on the side put on a medical uniform that was obviously one size larger, and was stunned for a long time, and said with a sentence: "Welcome back!" ”

"All assembled!" Suddenly, a loud rallying cry sounded.

The three of them hurried out of the house and gathered outside the village.

The little girl, dressed in a medical uniform one size larger, rushed out of the house panting with the two of them, and saw countless people moving quickly from all corners, and finally lined up.

When the group finished marching, Zhang Ting, the leader of the group who led them, rode on a tall horse and looked to the east.

There, a dragon galloped slowly.

The little girl looked at all this quietly, her apricot mouth opened slightly, and she said in surprise: "There are so many people......

It's a team that looks like a giant dragon. They filled the entire official road and even all the places on both sides that could be walked.

It was already getting late, and the sun was setting, and the red glow was shining all over the land. In a red world, the first main team of the Ming Dynasty began to drive north.

The main force arrived, and the officers and men of the advance company also prepared their temporary tents.

In view of the priority arrangement of medical staff, Wu Wanying took the little girl back into the village to rest. Outside the village, tents stretched for miles. The soldiers began to rest, and after dealing with more than a dozen soldiers who were injured on the march, Wu Wanying, who returned to the clinic, finally had the opportunity to ask the little girl's name.

"Haven't said it yet...... How can I call you? Dare to ask, girl's name? Wu Wanying lay on the bed, lying with her clothes.

The little girl quietly handed out a steamed bun that was still raised, and said in a low voice: "Daddy and mother call me steamed buns, and ...... backwards Just call me, steamed buns. ”

"Steamed buns?" Wu Wanying muttered, handed the steamed bun to the little girl again, and said, "Well, good name." Come on, steamed buns, eat them. ”

After speaking, Wu Wanying fell into a deep sleep.

Datong City.

Ni Yuanlu, the deputy envoy of the Ming Privy Council and the governor of the three sides and the governor of SX, watched the military advisers of the Privy Council gather information from all over the place, and began to update the landmarks on the sand table.

And this can be regarded as the time when every manager must observe.

The surface of the mountains and rivers of the entire SX is intuitively visible, the white rice pile representing the base of grain transshipment, a small red man representing a main group, and the appearance of various towns are clearly visible on the sand table.

At this moment, the little red man who was moved by the military division had slowly begun to move from the interior of the entire empire, from Taiyuan, from Xuanfu, from Baoding, from Xi'an, and from Yulin to the northern grasslands.

Daming, a huge giant, is about to start stretching out his fist.

"I just don't know...... What will be the reaction of those Mongolian Tatars when they know all this? Ni Yuanlu was looking forward to it.

"Maybe they'll be looking forward to the Jurchens' rescue." Ni Yuanlu's eyes fell on Liaodong: "If that's the case, it would be even more gratifying to sit and watch the enemy disappointed." (To be continued.) )
