He was promoted from the fire commander to the team leader, which is not an honorable position, but it only represents the lives of no less than ten batches of recruits who have been sent away.

Only those who have been on the battlefield of border defense can deeply understand the meaning of this sentence.

The border guards generally have 500 people as a brigade, with a brigade commander, 50 people as a team, a team of 10 people, and a fire commander.

In the process of rising from the fire commander to the head of the team, he ushered in no less than 3,000 recruits.

A year after arriving in Shuofang, Ding Haochang, who relied on the hereditary title to inherit the command, discovered his strange existence, and he could survive in his border guards for a year, which had never been seen in the history of the Shuofang border guards.

He would not allow such a person to exist, so he decided to award Zhen Mingku's medal in recognition of his bravery in battle, appointed him as a brigade commander, responsible for training 500 recruits, and then assigned him a glorious and arduous task - to go deep into the enemy camp and find out the enemy's situation.

With hundreds of recruits who would wake up crying at night to find their mothers, and would pee their pants when they saw Turkic barbarians, Zhen Mingku entered the border with the Turks, and encountered a sneak attack by a group of Turkic cavalry with only more than 100 people.

In the process of evading the search and hunt of the Turks, he captured a centurion of the Turkic cavalry and forced him to extract a truth that made him angry.

It turned out that the whereabouts of these new brigades of their recruits were actually betrayed to the Turks by their own people, and it was the commander of the Shuofang border guards who betrayed them.

In order to curry favor with the Turks, Shuofang commanded envoys to send recruits who had not undergone the slightest training to the battlefield, and then sold their intelligence to the Turks, so that the other party could enjoy the pleasure of "hunting", and in this way won the Turks' leniency for Shuofang City.

In the stubborn resistance, he took hundreds of recruits, all of whom were hunted and killed by the Turks in a cat-and-mouse way, one by one, and when he took a dozen other recruits to fight out of the encirclement, he was repeatedly slashed by the Turkic cavalry more than a dozen times, and he fell unconscious, and when he woke up, he was already in a room, and the one who took care of him by his side was the beautiful Baiyi princess Ankaratia.

It was she who found him in a ravine when she was grazing, and a dozen border guard soldiers who had been starved of water and food, and were dying, and brought them back to the village from the battlefield, and saved their lives with a special healing plaster made by the Baiyi tribe.

Wulin Village, where the Baiyi people are located, is a very secluded small mountain village, isolated from the world, and there are only more than 1,000 people in the whole clan.

Ankaratia is the daughter of the Baiyi patriarch, a carefree, beautiful and amorous little girl, who lived in this remote village of Wulin for nearly two months, listened to Tia sing, accompanied her up the mountains to collect firewood and graze, taught the Baiyi villagers how to forge and smelt, how to weave cloth, and lived a paradise-like life.

After recovering from his injuries, he returned to Shuofang City with more than a dozen surviving veterans, instigated the border guards, and launched the Shuofang Mutiny that shocked the government and the opposition.

They secretly followed the commander of the border guards, cut off the head of Ding Haochang, who was happy in the bed of Liang Shidu's concubine, and hung it on the Shuofang city wall.

This move won the hearts of the army, Shuofang County guarded Liang Shi had long known that the commander had an affair with his concubine, but he dared not speak out, and now that Ding Haochang was killed, Liang Shi not only did not cure the crime of Zhen Zhen's life, but also made an exception to promote him to the general of Yingyang Mansion, in charge of Shuofang border guards.

A few months later, after Guo Zihe, the captain of the Yulin Frontier Army, learned of the Shuofang mutiny, he drew a gourd in the same way, plucked the Yulin Frontier Army, killed the Yulin County Guard and Commander, and voted for the Turkic Khan, who named him Pingyang Khan.

After Guo Zihe surrendered, the Turkic Khan Ashina Du Shibi personally led the iron cavalry to sweep through Yulin and help Guo Zihe capture Yulin County.

At this time, Zhen Mingku had completely mastered the military power of the Shuofang border guards, and when he heard the news that the Turkic army had invaded Yulin County and wantonly slaughtered the unarmed people of Yulin, he rushed to Wulin Village with a thousand elite soldiers.

When they arrived at the village of Wulin, the village had been slaughtered by the Turks, who set fire to all the houses in the village.

They found Antti in a burned-out room, where she used to lie with him to look at the stars and sing to him, naked, dead and her beautiful body stained with the filth of the Turkic beast soldiers.

Seeing that there was a woolen scarf and shawl knitted for whom she was not known, at that moment, he and a dozen border guard soldiers who had lived here for two months and had long regarded this place as another home wept bitterly.

Zhen Mingku, with 3,000 elite soldiers, relied on the super-generation mobile phone military dog tracking function, and finally caught up with the more than 400 cavalry who had returned with a full load in the Mongolian steppe two days and two nights, dragging men and women, and were preparing to return to the Turks.

In this battle, more than 1,000 border guards led by him died before they slashed down all the more than 1,000 strong Turkic cavalry of the opposing side, and the blood stained the steppe within a radius of 1,000 meters.

It's a pity that the Turkic Khan Shibi was desperately protected by a group of people and fled back to the Turks.

Zhen Mingku, with the ears of these Turks and a hundred captive villagers of Wulin, returned to Wulin Village, and buried these bloody ears and the corpses of the villagers in the quietest corner of the village.

……

Zhang listened quietly.

Zhen Ming paused bitterly, "I swore in front of her grave that when I killed the Turkic Khan and Guo Zihe, I would bring her people back to rebuild Wulin Village." ”

Zhang, who was nestled in his arms, trembled slightly when he heard this, and the hand around his waist hugged him tighter.

After a long time, he stood up with her around her and whispered, "Go back." ”

When he returned to the camp, Feng Lun, who looked anxious, greeted him, looked at Zhang with slightly red and swollen eyes and a trace of sadness on his face, and asked with a puzzled face: "Why did the princess come back at dawn after this trip?" Did something happen? ”

Zhang was silent.

Feng Lun glanced at Zhen Mingku again: "General Dark Guard, where did you take the princess?" You must know that the princess will marry the Khan in a few days, and Feng will no longer think of anything wrong. ”

Zhen Ming frowned: "Lord Feng, doesn't you suspect that the old man will do something to the princess that will ruin the princess's innocence?" ”

Feng Lun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "The general thinks too much, Feng is just worried about the princess's safety, it's okay, those sneak thieves have been released according to the general's words, let's set off, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”
