Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2
The next day.

morning.

Today's weather looks a little better. There is no snow in the sky, but the overcast sky is covered with dark clouds, and there is no sunshine at all. From time to time, there is a chilly cold wind blowing past, which makes people shudder.

Mujing's health has improved a lot. Although he has been a little panicked from gnawing bark these days, the main reason is that he has not adapted to it. Now that he has almost adapted, his body has naturally recovered a lot.

Although he is only a 12-year-old boy with a handsome face, he has inherited his father Mushan's military general genes, and his frame is still very tall. Moreover, his father Mushan taught him martial arts since he was a child. He is only 12 years old. It grows bones but not flesh, but it already has the strength of a hundred catties. It is no problem to lift a hundred catties of stone locks, and the body has strong endurance.

At this time, Mu Jing was squatting beside a ravine in the back mountain, looking at the people on the mountain with their families, digging wild vegetables and tree bark, picking whatever they could eat from the mountain. This was his first time. This is the first time to see the poverty in ancient times so intuitively.

"I didn't even bother to take a look at how many shark's fin and abalones were placed in front of me, but now I can only stare at the bark of these wild vegetables in a daze!"

He looked up to the sky speechless, and sighed: "How should I live this day!"

"Young master, this is the wild fruit we just picked, you should fill your stomach first!"

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, Lang Xing, hurried over from a distance, with a knife pinned to his waist, a bow on his back, and a few wild fruits in both hands. pastoral scene.

Mujing also knew this young man.

Lei Hu, 15 years old, is tall and big, as his name suggests, even if he is a tiger, his father is Lei Gong. Lei Gong has a bad temper, but his fighting power is very strong. He is known as the strongest general on Mushroom Mountain next to Mu Mountain.

"Brother Tiger!"

Mujing stood up, took a wild fruit, and took a bite. It was sour and tasted bad, but it was better than eating the bark. He asked, "Where did you pick this wild fruit?"

The hillsides around Mushroom Mountain are empty, and the wild fruits have already been picked. At this time, it is not bad to have wild vegetable bark to fill the stomach.

"Over the mountain!"

Lei Hu had a thick face. He scratched his head and pointed to the north of Mushroom Mountain.

"Over there? At least a dozen miles away, you already went to pick it last night?"

Mu Jing looked up, and there seemed to be some distant mountain shadows in the distance, at least a dozen miles away from Mushroom Mountain. In such weather, at least set off last night, so that he could pick wild fruits and rush back at this time.

"My father said that the young master is sick!"

Lei Hu said a little ashamedly: "Let me go hunting in the mountains, I plan to hunt a pheasant or some other prey to replenish my body, but I walked for more than ten miles, but I didn't see any prey, only this!"

Before Mujing, it might have been chilled to the bone, with a high fever that lasted for four or five days, so the somewhat sad young man died, and then Mulong Tujiu occupied the magpie's nest, becoming a brand new Mujing.

"Brother Huzi, why are you so kind to me?" Mu Jing was a little moved and asked softly.

"Because you are the young master!"

Lei Hu said it as a matter of course.

"Less head of the house?"

Mu Jing looked at the simple Lei Hu and smiled.

He is such a cautious person who has just arrived in this era, so he naturally needs to understand his current living environment. These days, he has already understood the situation of Mushroom Mountain from an all-round way.

The people on Mushroom Mountain, whether they are young or young, are basically the remnants of the Nanyang Yellow Turbans. The so-called remnants are people who should have died but did not die cleanly. , so even if he survived, he was always chased by the imperial soldiers.

They fled to Mushroom Mountain and became bandits. Under the leadership of Mushan, they lived by robbing for the past two years, and they were able to survive more or less. Zi was ambushed once, resulting in many casualties, and failed to store enough food for the winter.

Speaking of Mountain King Mushan, his biological father in this body is not an ordinary person, at least well-known here in Nanyang County, but he is a big traitor wanted by the government.

During the Yellow Turban Uprising, Nanyang County was the main battle zone, and the leader of the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang was Zhang Mancheng.

Zhang Mancheng is a remarkable figure, one of the six yellow scarves, he can be regarded as the leader in the Yellow Turban Army, second only to Zhang Jiao, the great virtuous and good teacher, led the Nanyang Yellow Turban, led 10,000+ troops, and killed the Nanyang County Guard, Occupied Wancheng.

Zhang Mancheng has five generals under his command, Zhao Hong, Han Zhong, Sun Xia, Sun Zhong, and Mu Shan.

Compared with the entire Yellow Turban Army, the Nanyang Yellow Turban Army is an army with independent leadership. It is only under the command of Zhang Mancheng. Although it regards the great virtuous teacher as a spiritual pillar, outsiders cannot intervene in the command of military power. After Zhang Mancheng died in Wancheng, His subordinates began to divide the military power.

Zhao Hong was the deputy commander, so after Zhang Mancheng's death, he was the largest and led 10,000+ troops, but Zhao Zhong and Sun Xia did not obey him, so the three led the army and ruled Wancheng together, but after a while, they Because of the civil war, Wancheng was breached by the Han army outside, and the three died in battle.

Although Sun Zhong was the logistics steward of the Nanyang Yellow Turban, when Wancheng was breached, he was not spared and died on the spot.

Only Mushan was disheartened by Zhang Mancheng's defeat, and he was unwilling to fight for military power, so he led his headquarters with 1000 troops and went away to Wuyin County. When Wancheng was breached, he escaped with his life, but then The [-] soldiers and horses he led were also exhausted in the constant fleeing of officers and soldiers. Only a few hundred soldiers remained, and more than [-] yellow scarves, old and weak, women and children, fled to Mushroom Mountain, and occupied the mountain as king, which is considered to have a foothold. place.

Mushroom Mountain is not considered a dangerous place, but under the principle of secrecy and darkness under the lights, many people did not expect that there would be a group of yellow scarf rebels hiding on Mushroom Mountain.

Their secrecy work has also been good over the years.

Zhang Zi, the prefect of Nanyang, sent troops to suppress the bandits many times, but he could only set up an ambush on the outside, and never found their lair.

What surprised Mujing was that the people on the mountain loved and respected Mushan, the master, and obeyed orders. Leihu's attitude towards himself as a young master has already explained the problem. One of the reasons for standing still.

They unite.

"Brother Huzi, do you know how much food we have on the mountain?" Mu Jing asked, biting a wild fruit.

"Young master, where do we still have food? The granary is basically empty, and people starve to death every day on the mountain. Uncle Cheng has gone to Runan to beg for food now!"

Lei Hu said with some enthusiasm: "But I heard from my father that the people on our mountain may be going to fight in the next two days, and Wuyin County is going to be fought. As long as Wuyin City is defeated, we will have food. Already 15 years old, my dad approved that I can go to the battlefield with him!"

"Attack Wuyin City?"

Mu Jing frowned. The young men on the mountain were in their early [-]s and could serve as soldiers, but if they wanted to attack the big city of Wuyin, it would be impossible.

According to what he has learned these days, Wuyin is a large county town in Nanyang County. The city walls are high and thick, and there are county soldiers guarding the city.

……

Two days later.

On Mushroom Hill.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and the wind is getting colder and colder. On this mountain where the cold and snow blend, everyone is shivering from the cold, panicking from hunger, and lingering on their last breath in trembling.

Zhonglie Hall.

In the room, the atmosphere is gloomy.

Mu Shan was kneeling above the first seat, his face was like water, and the centipede-like scar on his face was extremely hideous. His deep voice echoed in the room: "Is there no news from Zi Deng?"

Although they are in Nanyang, they are not far from Runan.

One day's journey is enough to go there, and two days is enough to go back and forth.

"Master, it's the twelfth lunar month of winter, with heavy snow and freezing weather everywhere. Originally, it would take a day's journey, but it would take at least a day and a half. Without three days, it's impossible to have a round trip!"

The older middle-aged Zhang Gu replied: "If Gong Du and the others deliberately make things difficult, it will take at least four or five days!"

"But we can't wait now!"

Zhao Ping's voice was cold and trembling: "From yesterday to today, three old people have starved to death on the mountain. If things go on like this, let alone the old and weak, women and children, even we strong men can't hold on. We can't hold on for a few days on the mountain." All starve to death!"

"Master, let's send troops to fight Wuyin!"

Lei Gong looked at Mu Shan and said in a loud voice, "We can't hesitate any longer. If we hesitate for two more days, I'm afraid we won't even have the ability to fight Wuyin. The soldiers are so hungry and dizzy, how can they have the ability to fight!"

"Master, this time I agree with Lei Gong's statement!"

Zhang Gu is usually very calm, but now the Mushroom Mountain is at the end of its rope.

"it is good!"

Mu Shan clenched his fists tightly, a flame burning in his tiger eyes, and slowly stood up: "We won't wait any longer, if we want food, we have to pay for it ourselves. Lei Gong, you go to beat the drum immediately, and order the 15 people on the mountain Men over the age of 50, prepare to assemble!"

"No!" Lei Gong bowed his hands and accepted the order.

"Zhang Gu!"

"exist!"

"No matter what method you use, to prepare a meal, you must feed the soldiers who are going on the expedition. Only the soldiers who are full will have the strength to attack the city!"

"Good!" Zhang Gu nodded.

"Zhao Ping!"

"exist!"

"Go to the warehouse to pick up the weapons, take out all the weapons, use them if they work, and use them if they don't work!"

Mu Shan's tall body stood tall like a mountain, his eyes looked into the distance, and he said coldly and decisively: "We will be like the overlord of Western Chu, fight with our backs, if we fail, we will be benevolent!"
