The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

The disciples of Longhumen have no other ideas, and there is only one way to survive, and that is to rush out of the Beikou Sanli Hutong, which used to be the capital they were proud of in front of the people of Yangzhou, and made them feel proud; It is no longer a status symbol, but a cage that traps them to death.

Nearly a hundred people lost their lives in the fight just now. Those who survived had an unprecedented need for survival, so they charged more resolutely and bravely.

Especially when seeing the vigorous figure of the second senior brother and the third senior brother taking the lead, the ordinary disciples also lost their reason for hesitation. The team of more than 200 people was like a huge wave, rolling over the small piles of debris piled up in front of them. , rushed straight to the south exit of the alley.

Ma Ming'er turned over a pile of debris full of tables and chairs, and at a glance saw the backs of three or four pecking wolves running ahead. Obviously, the officers and soldiers were fleeing. This discovery made him more convinced that there were not many officers and soldiers in the south. , and there is no fuel arrow.

"The one who escaped in front is the dog officer just now, and captured this turtle alive." Ma Minger roared hoarsely, and Sa Yazi led the people to chase after him, but after passing the obstacle behind him, he ordered people to pile up There is already a smooth road near the south entrance of the alley with seven or eight piles of obstacles.

The efficiency of the soldiers of the horse army is still a bit high. In just a short time, they actually cleaned up seven or eight piles of obstacles like ants moving a mountain, leaving only broken porcelain slag and some small messes on the ground.

It seems to have helped the people of Longhumen. After these obstacles were cleared, the disciples of Longhumen seemed to have stepped on the Kangzhuang Avenue, and rushed to the south entrance at an extremely fast speed without any hindrance. Like the rabbit's butt in the eyes of a hound, it is so alluring and directional; it's a pity that the alley is too dark and the sky is too dark, and soon these rabbits disappeared.

But this does not affect that the south entrance of the Hutong is getting closer and closer to me. People who know Sanli Hutong at the North Exit like the back of their hands, even in this dark night when they can't see anything, they can also know it by the shape of the surrounding buildings. It is the entrance of the alley; and what is even more exciting is that the entrance of the alley is pitch-black, and the fires lit by the officers and soldiers guarding the entrance of the alley have been extinguished at some point, and it is conceivable that the officers and soldiers have already escaped. shadow.

Freedom is ahead, and the joy of escaping from birth turned the disciples of Longhumen into Ferrari racing cars, as if money, beauties and champagne were waiting for them at the finish line at the alley. Drowsing his head and rushing.

Suddenly, the head of the disciple of Longhumen, who was expected to win the championship and rushing to the first place, was firmly blocked by a hard object. After a burst of noise, the dark sky in front seemed to shake a few times, and the disciple had no time to think. The whole person has already passed out with an 'ouch' headlong.

Immediately after there was a chaotic sound of ping-ping-pong-pong, more than a dozen Longhumen disciples rushing forward collided with disordered objects one after another, causing the huge black object in front of them to shake, and several chairs at the top slid down and fell to pieces. Bad.

Ma Ming'er was shocked and shouted, "Stop! Stop! There is an ambush."

Everyone trembled in fright, those in front quickly braked, those behind hurriedly rear-ended, and the front and back crowded into a ball.

While he was in doubt, he heard the disciple of Longhumen who fell in front crawled on the ground and moaned weakly: "Second senior brother, it's not an ambush...it's a wall, we hit the wall."

"Wall? Where is the wall?" Ma Ming'er was a little puzzled; his pupils were opened to the maximum, and he stretched his head out like a cat and walked towards the front with his palms. After walking more than ten steps, his eyes adapted to the darkness finally saw Reaching the outline of the wall, piles of sundries piled up in front of them, tightly blocking the entire street from east to west, the disciples who were running too fast couldn't see clearly, plus the speed was too fast, hitting I shrank my head and didn't understand what was going on.

"Let me tell you, where did all the sundries we used to prevent the cavalry charge on the road go? It turned out that these dog officers and soldiers moved them to the entrance of the alley and piled them up into a wall." Li Manzi came up and scolded.

Ma Ming'er almost died of joy: "What does this mean? These officers and soldiers are simply too stupid. Such a pile of debris can block the men's way of life? But it's no wonder that the officer who led the army just now was already so stupid , he must have come up with this stupid idea."

"Hey, you treated us like paper people, second senior brother, wouldn't it be all right if you set fire to this wall?" Li Manzi thought he had found a good solution.

"Brother, your wisdom is almost on par with that stupid officer. Burning the wall? Trapping yourself inside? When the fire is extinguished, there may be thousands of officers and soldiers waiting for us with bows and arrows outside. I said those officers and soldiers are stupid. , that is to say, they didn't know how to set these sundries on fire, so we had no choice but to turn around and head north."

Li Manzi's face turned red, and he argued to himself: "Second Senior Brother, if the enemy is eavesdropping behind the wall, isn't this equivalent to telling them the way to kill us?"

Ma Ming'er gave him a disdainful look and said: "After I go out, I will be the head of the family, and you will be the second child. Your brain will kill us all. We have all rushed under the wall. Do they still have a chance to light the fire? Before we got up, the whole wall was demolished by us, let alone, I asked everyone to move these sundries away, and more than 200 brothers could dismantle these things in the time of farting."

Li Laizi hurriedly greeted everyone to come forward, there was a sudden clatter, more than 200 Longhumen disciples instantly turned into porters, and since there could only be more than 30 people standing in a row, they actually knew how to queue up to pass, a toilet passed through seven or eight hands They were left behind, and tables and chairs with missing arms and legs were also thrown behind them one by one. This wall was originally not high, not big and not strong, but half of it was quickly demolished, and the opposite street could already be seen faintly. The dim light of the dots next to it is gone.

……

Outside the alley, more than [-] people from Su Jin and Ma Jun stopped and stood. The soldiers of the Ma Jun were so depressed that they were dying. What kind of trick was this by Special Envoy Su? At first, everyone thought that the accumulation of tables and chairs was to set fire to block the entrance of the alley. However, the Special Envoy said that there are women and children in the alley, and if this pile of sundries is lit, the houses on both sides will definitely catch fire, and innocent people will be burned to death.

The soldiers of the horse army thought bitterly: "Where are there innocent people in this alley? Even women and children are also the family members of the mob. Can they be so lenient? This is all right. Seeing that the obstacles in front of us are being dismantled little by little, it's over." You can see rows of shaking bandit heads, it seems that you can only fight with your life, damn it! In order to save the women and children of the mob, you have to take the lives of your fathers. What grew up."

Su Jin naturally understood the anger of the crowd, but he had no intention of lighting this pile of obstacles from the very beginning. The fire could prevent the gangsters from rushing out of the alley, but it could indeed turn the houses on both sides into a sea of ​​flames. I have searched for many old and young women and children. Su Jin can't do the thing of burning them to death. What's more, once the fire is ignited, the disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Gate will be forced to break through to the north. This is what Su Jin never wants to see .

The purpose of the obstacle is not to kill, but to delay time. If it is delayed for a while, maybe in the next moment, a large group of soldiers and horses will gallop to them, and the problem will be solved.

Seeing the dream come to nothing, the barriers were gradually dismantled, and the next moment was the opponent's rush, Su Jin sighed, turned his head and said: "This is the only way, people come, bring all the horses over."

The soldiers of the horse army thought contemptuously: "It's nothing more than that, and if you are really fearless and not afraid of death, don't you want to run away on horseback when the situation comes to an end?"

"Arrange the horses head towards the entrance of the alley, ten horses in a row." Su Jin said lightly.

The horsemen are a little puzzled, what is this for?

"Draw out the knife, and I will give an order, and you will stab the horse's butt with the knife, be careful not to poke too deep, and don't get stabbed to death with the knife."

The horse troops suddenly understood Su Jin's intentions.

"In Gu Youtian's single fire ox formation, today I, Su Jin, want to let them try the Crazy Horse Formation. Unfortunately, I don't have time to put sharp knives on the horse's head. It's a fly in the ointment, but the horse's hoof with iron palms is enough for them." Su Jin smacked his lips.

All the horsemen were silent.

"Don't worry, dozens of horses can still be bought, and each of you will be replaced by a strong and tall horse at that time."

In the sneezing tone of the special envoy, the rolled-eyed cavalry can only accept the fact that they have become infantry, should they die or horses?Does this question still need to be answered?

As for the promise of the envoy, just treat him as farting. War horses are not ordinary horses that ride carts to plow the land. The envoy is rich, but where do you buy it?
