Chapter 44: Liaomin
Sun Tong also led everyone up the mountain to cut down a lot of trees, cut a lot of artemisia grass, and set up a lot of simple shacks next to the tents.
They also helped to erect all the military tents, there are now 100 tents, each of which can accommodate 40 people, and now it can basically meet the food and accommodation of about 5,000 people, but this is far from enough.
Sun Tong borrowed more than a dozen tents of the Ming army in Shuizhai, although they were already very dilapidated, but they could also deal with hundreds of people living in it, and then we had to wait for Wang Bo to pull the people back to see the situation.
Now the main problem is food, if people don't have a place to live, it doesn't matter, but if they don't have food, it's a fatal thing. Gao Jianguo and Song Tao studied the next work with Song Tao in his tent.
Everyone was full of solemnity, and the atmosphere around them was also very depressing, Gao Jianguo saw that everyone's feelings were not very high, so he smiled and said: "What's wrong with you, isn't it just that we have a treat and prepared a table of banquets, but there are several tables of guests." This is a good thing, everyone wants to brainstorm, and they can always think of a way, so that a few tables of guests can eat a table of wine first, and then we can get it. ”
Song Tao thought for a while and said, "Can we go to North Korea for a spin, find some big dogs, and rob his mother." ”
Gao Jianguo nodded and said, "I've thought about this, but even if we go to grab it, we have to go to the south." There is no need to think about it in the north, in the Battle of Ding Mao last year, the Houjin army Amin led 30,000 troops to attack North Korea, and the entire north was almost robbed, and the Tartars were all hit to Pyongyang. I estimate that North Korea may not even be able to catch up with the south now, and even if it recovers this year, it will only be the beginning of spring ploughing, and what can we grab. ”
Lu Gambo lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said: "Then can we go to Houjin to think of a way, they didn't rob anything in North Korea last year, even if it was a fat year, food must be indispensable, we may be able to find a place to rob them." ”
Everyone felt that this opinion was not too skilful, if they went deep into the interior of Houjin, they would now only have more than a hundred people, even if the weapons were advanced and without the support of the landing ships, it would be very dangerous.
The Houjin Tartars are all cavalry, even if the Tartars follow the troops day and night, they can't withstand the toss. Surprisingly, Song Tao supported this opinion, and he proposed a plan, that is, he led the special combat team to go deep into the Houjin District to investigate and determine the target, formulate a thorough plan, and then the large army will move again.
This plan was also supported by Gao Jianguo, and he felt that this plan was feasible, but the goal should not be too far, 10 kilometers away from the coast was appropriate.
In the evening, Wang Bo's boat returned, and several dilapidated wooden boats were full of people. When Gao Jianguo, Song Tao and others heard the news, they all hurried out and stood on the dock of the water village waiting for the arrival of the victims.
Wang Haisheng curled up on the boat, staring blankly at the lights on the shore in the distance, since he fled to Changshan Island, he relied on odd jobs for two years, although he was hungry and full, but he could always survive, but with more and more Liao people who escaped from the sea, this day is not as good as day by day.
When he was in his hometown, his family ran slowly and was blocked in the village by the Tartars, and he saw his mother and sister being spoiled by a gang of Tartars, who were only eleven years old that year, and were killed by the Tartars.
Later, their family was assigned to a Houjin master's tunzi, and they got up early every day and worked in the dark for a year, but they still couldn't eat, and their father and mother starved to death before they even survived for a year.
At that time, it was spring, the sea water was cold and biting, and more than a dozen people who ran out together only swam for a while, and a few of them did not survive, Wang Haisheng and the other two people were lucky and encountered a fishing boat, which was considered to have survived.
After two or three years, he was the only one left who escaped with him, if it wasn't for the military master who gave him half a piece of bread, he might not have survived, "bang", their boat docked, and the military master who gave him the cake led a group of people to scold loudly, and kicked and beat them off the boat.
Gao Jianguo and Song Tao looked at these unclothed and dirty Liao people, and their expressions were extremely complicated. I used to only see the starving people in movies and television, but when they really saw these miserable Liao people, they realized that what was staged on TV in the past was purely a few eggs, and they didn't look elsewhere, just looking at their eyes were different, looking like a dead man.
They can no longer be called human beings, and it may be more appropriate to call them walking dead, they have endured not only hunger, but also the tragic fate of their families, watching their relatives die in front of their eyes one by one, and the horrific human tragedies they have experienced.
Now these people may only have their last breath left, but their hearts may have died long ago, and the phrase mourning is more appropriate than death is most appropriate for them.
Although the people on the boat are as thin as skin and bones, and their bodies are curled up and look very thin, if you look closely, you will find that they are not short, indicating that their previous bodies should be good. Of course, how can the frail and sickly, the old and the weak, the women and children escape the pursuit of the Tartars, and how can they survive to this day and still not die.
Gao Jianguo's face was gloomy, he turned his head and couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and muttered in his mouth: "These Tartars who have suffered a thousand knives, don't let Lao Tzu see them in the future." ”
Song Tao also turned around, sighed, and then said solemnly: "I thought that the refugees I saw in Africa were the worst, but when I saw them, I knew that those refugees in Africa were too happy, and I decided that in the future, my troops will never leave a single Tartar prisoner." ”
Gao Jianguo surprisingly did not refute, but also echoed: "Yes, they are all slaughtered, and no one is left." ”
This time, a total of hundreds of people were brought back, and they were found on the nearby Changshan Island, Song Tao found Wang Bo, pulled him aside, and complained in a low voice: "Who are you pulling back, my elders are very angry." ”
Wang Bo was stupid at the time, and hurriedly explained with a bitter face: "Brother, you can't pick the Liao people here at all, one is like this, it's good to survive, if you want to be alive, then you just force my brother and me to go around to kidnap people." ”
Song Tao finished beating Wang Bo, and frowned again and said: "Fortunately, my elder is kind-hearted, after he knows the life history of these people, he can't stand it now, you just pull it here, the elder said, save one is counted as one." But I really can't help you raise the price, and I'll give you back the gold ingots. By the way, are there many such people on nearby islands? ”
Wang Bo, who was still worried, was overjoyed when he heard Song Tao say this, and he was secretly glad that he had met a good person, if he met a ruthless person, the deal would be smashed, and he didn't want to sell it for a big price, so the deal that he thought would be smashed was actually done because he met a kind-hearted owner, which was really unexpected.
"Brother, you can say this, scold me, that little thing is my brother's gift to you, you just take it. If it weren't for you, brother, how could I have made this deal, what is this person worth, I don't ask the price, I thank God for you to see and give me an errand money, anyway, I'm idle. I really don't know how many Liao people are still alive nearby, but I have already released the news, and by tomorrow at the latest, there will be a boat pulling people, and the news will be delivered by then. ”
Song Tao also said with a straight face: "Brother, what do you think of your brother, the price is low and you can't let you do it for nothing, my elder said, saving people is important, a living person is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, I said brother, you can't bear to watch these Liao people starve to death, so you are helping Zhang Luo with this deal." My parents were very pleased to hear this, and said that you can pretend to have these suffering Liao people in your heart, you are a great and kind person, let me bring some goods to you in the future, and if you don't have any money, you can take credit first, who will make you better. ”
Wang Bo instantly felt as if he had been hit by a huge gold nugget, and hurriedly thanked Song Tao again, but Song Tao immediately said: "I can say it first, this time you can make things perfect, the elder of my family has already put down his words, there are as many Liao people as there are like this, our island is big, tens of thousands of people can fit it in the past, since we see it, we can't ignore it, we have to give them a way to live, right?" ”
After listening to Song Tao's words, Wang Bo patted his chest and promised that he would definitely do things beautifully and satisfy Song Tao's elders. After leaving Wang Bo, Song Tao and Gao Jianguo returned to the camp with these Liao people.
At this time, the camp had already set up a marching pot, but considering that these people had been hungry for too long, they only made a slightly sticky rice porridge for them tonight, and then found some green vegetables to chop and stew together, and added some energy bars and nutritional powder, and after cooking, each person was divided into a large bowl.
The victims who drank a large bowl of vegetable porridge obviously had some strength and looked much better, but their eyes were still very dull. Gao Jianguo and Song Tao let these Liao people rest for a while, then they called them over, organized people to shave all the hair on these Liao people, and then rushed to the sea and let them take a sea bath with soap. After going ashore, they were simply washed with boiled warm water before they were dressed.
