Iron Age

The two sisters, Peng Jingrong and Peng Jingwei, rode on the horses and looked back from time to time. They witnessed the bloody slaughter inside the city gate. The familiar figure was nailed into the city gate hole like a nail. They didn't take a step back, let alone look back. Swinging the knife, swinging the knife again, after such a long distance, you can still see the piled up corpses gradually blocking half of the city gate.

I don’t know how long that person can last. This may be the last time I saw him, and it was also the last time I saw the iron factory where I had lived for more than ten years. Both sisters were thinking this way. Now, my father's life and death are uncertain, decades of foundations have been destroyed, how many good brothers have turned against each other, how many familiar faces have died tragically under the sword, yesterday was still a joyful New Year's Eve, the noble lady, everything suddenly became so sad today, So terrible, so unacceptable, from now on, he is a fugitive on the run.Although the world is big, where is the place to live, a hundred miles ahead is the border of the Qing Dynasty...

There was a slight tremor, and then it gradually became stronger. An inner guard lay down on the ground and listened with his ears. He shouted badly. There was a large group of cavalry ahead, which frightened Peng Jingrong's face. The Iron Riding Serial Horse?

The serial horses of the Qing Dynasty are very sharp. Five war horses are connected together, with long spears tied forward, and they are invincible wherever they go. The iron factory's crossbows are powerful, so they will not fall behind. Now that the Qing Dynasty is launching a surprise attack on the first day of the new year, the iron factory must be the first to bear the brunt. I don't know where the forbidden troops on the border are?

The ground gradually began to tremble. Everyone was afraid and did not dare to move forward. Suddenly, they saw a large number of people in ragged clothes and messy weapons running towards this side.

It's slaves, slaves fucked!One of the inner guards shouted, it's strange, why the **** slaves didn't escape, but ran back, and their questions were quickly answered.

Cavalry, cavalry all over the sky, emerged from the horizon.

The long horns, dull drums, and banners covering the sky and the sun, yes, they are the elite cavalry of the Qing Dynasty. The serial horses are in front, followed by cavalry archers and long swordsmen, and behind them are infantry carrying siege equipment. , The army stretched for several miles, slowly approaching, and there were fast-moving light cavalry scouts on the two sides running back and forth from a distance. There were heavy soldiers in front and a strong city in the back.

The slave group ran desperately, passing by the small group of people, no one paid any attention to them, many of the slaves were wounded by arrows, obviously they had just encountered the Qing army and suffered a great loss.

There are wolves in the front and tigers in the back, what to do.Peng Jingrong turned around in a hurry, and the horse under her crotch also became anxious, and Huihui barked non-stop.

***************************************************** ***************** At the north gate of the iron factory, half of the corpses piled up at the gate, and no one dared to clean them up. This slightly affected the power of the crossbow. The arrows pierced the corpse, Unexpectedly, a passage was opened, and then as the crossbowmen quickly stepped on the pedals, the arrows were fired at Liu Ziguang at a combat rate of [-] rounds per minute. , retreated to the outside of the city gate, flashed out of the city gate, and avoided the side. The thick crossbow arrows roared and shot out from the city gate, and flew a long way before they stuck in the soil, and planted hundreds of feet away from the north gate. Under a dense piece of iron crops.

Liu Ziguang secretly applauded the danger, this kind of unnecessary reckless struggle was really undesirable, and the officers and soldiers had already climbed up the city wall, hung them down with ropes, and formed an infantry team to chase after the eldest lady and the others.

Liu Ziguang ran to the north, and the eldest lady and the slave team were all in that direction.His speed was by no means inferior to that of a good horse, and within a short while he ran into the fleeing slave team head-on.

When they came out of the camp, nearly 1000 people had been damaged by burning arrows, and 4000 people had escaped from the city. Now there are only more than 2000 people left, and there are still many wounded by arrows.

Zhamuhe was riding on a handsome Qing horse with two pots of feathered arrows hanging from the saddle. As soon as he saw Liu Ziguang, he yelled, "It's unlucky, I met a Qing scout not far from the city gate. We wiped out this small group of scouts, but were bitten by the vanguard of the Qing army. Thousands of brothers died on the spot, but we didn't make them feel good, at least a few hundred of them were overthrown. But the chain came soon , We people can't beat the cavalry, how is the fight in the city? It doesn't look good. Just now I saw your two friends escaped.

Liu Ziguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "The officers and soldiers have entered the city, and the eldest lady and the others have fallen, and now there is no way to retreat."

"Anyway, I can't be a prisoner again. I'd rather die freely." Anthony said holding the captured machete of the Qing Dynasty.

"If it falls into the hands of the ironworkers, it is death. It is even worse if it falls into the hands of the Qing people. They will all be buried alive." Said a slave who was familiar with the Qing Dynasty.

"Fight it, brothers can't be born in the same year, the same month, the same date, it's good fortune to be able to have the same year, the same month and the same age. Today we will fight to the death together at the Liguo Iron Works!" Zha Muhe shouted desolately.

All the slaves were infected, and they danced their weapons and shouted: "Fight, fight, fight!" After finally escaping, they fell into desperation. More than 2000 people who were determined to die cried out in grief and indignation, shaking the heavens and the earth.The large flock of jackdaws was alarmed and flew into the snowy sky.

Song Qingfeng followed behind Peng Jingrong, and when he saw the overwhelming Qing army, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and he said, "Miss Peng, Yu Hualong colluded with officers and soldiers to betray the factory. Restore the rule of the Peng family in the iron factory. As the saying goes, those who know the current affairs are heroes, and the Qing king is heroic, and he is old with me. As long as I go and talk to the general of the Qing army, I will be able to persuade him to help you recover the iron factory .”

Peng Jingrong stared at Song Qingfeng for a long time and said, "You are from the Qing Dynasty." Song Qingfeng smiled reservedly: "It doesn't matter which country you are from. What matters is the world. It is my lifelong dream to make the world stop fighting."

"In order to stop fighting, you want to attract the Qing army to attack the Ming Dynasty? I'm afraid you are not just as simple as a Wudang young hero?" The eldest lady asked sarcastically.

Song Qingfeng smiled again: "Wudang taught me martial arts, and the Qing Dynasty gave me a future. Yes, my real identity is Zhang Jing, the fourth rank of the Qing Dynasty Military Aircraft Department, and my majesty bestowed a yellow jacket. This time I entered the iron factory, and I came here for the great cause of the Southern Expedition , secondly, it’s for you, Jing Rong, no matter what, my love for you is true, and I will definitely help you take back the iron factory, believe me, Jing Rong.” With sincere words, Lian Song Qingfeng himself was moved.

"Damn! You are still a young hero, I think you are only worthy of being called a dog thief! Can you call my sister's name whatever you want? You are a hateful Qing country sharpie. Look at the arrow!" The angry second lady did not wait for her sister to answer. , and cursed angrily, picked up the revolver and was about to shoot, but Yang Meng pushed his arm violently, and the iron arrow rushed into the sky. Peng Jingwei glared at Yang Meng, "Why, even you are a spy of the Qing Dynasty?"

Yang Meng cried and said with a mournful face: "Second Miss, this is the end of the matter, I think it's better to follow Master Song's instructions, the younger ones don't want to die yet." Lu Gaozhi and several other guards who were familiar with Song Qingfeng also expressed their willingness to follow Song Qingfeng Lower Qing.

Yu Xiaolong was still in the team, and the second lady stopped holding him hostage long ago. In fact, it was Yu Xiaolong's own idea to hold him hostage. Now he looked at the two sisters worriedly, not daring to intervene.

Peng Jingrong has been numb by the series of changes, all betrayed, only the two sisters are dependent on each other, look at the proud Song Qingfeng, remorseful and want to beat himself, needless to say, Liu Ziguang's charges of spies in the Qing Dynasty must be cleared, Dongxiang's matter It also appears to be a conspiracy.

"Did you kill Dongxiang?" Peng Jingrong asked suddenly.

"For the peace of the world, sometimes some people need to be sacrificed, and I will burn paper for Dongxiang every year." Those who make big things don't care about small things, Song Qingfeng doesn't care about admitting the fact of killing Dongxiang now.

"Then you also killed Liu Ziguang?" Peng Jingrong continued to ask.

"Killing him is all for you, Jing Rong. I admit that I have selfish intentions, but it's all because of love. I think you will forgive me." Song Qingfeng is a straightforward person, but there is one thing he didn't say. It is to use Liu Ziguang to escape and lure Hu Xianjue, the captain of the guard, away from the mountain. This move easily removes a fierce general beside the eldest lady, and has to rely on Song Qingfeng.A lot of Qing Dynasty scouts in plain clothes had mixed into the city. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Song Qingfeng, in his capacity as the head guard of the inner house, sent more than a dozen jars of poisoned wine to the defenders at the north gate under the guise of the eldest lady. Then after the drug took effect, he sneaked back to the inner house, ordered his plainclothes scouts to occupy the north gate, lowered the suspension bridge, and welcomed the Qing army into the city.Unexpectedly, the guard Ding You did not drink alcohol, and led a group of men who did not drink poisoned alcohol, and fought a bloody battle with the scouts.

The people of the Qing Dynasty were not orthodox in the Central Plains, and they were ambitious. They wanted to drink horses from the Yangtze River and occupy the south of the Yangtze River. This time, they carefully designed the iron factory and dispatched a large number of spies and troops.It was a dream, this Song Qingfeng's temptation was nothing more than wanting to make himself a promise, thinking of committing himself to such a despicable villain who is treacherous and full of peace, Peng Jingrong couldn't help but squeeze the gold-and-white jade handle tightly again. long dagger.

Song Qingfeng took out a piece of white silk from his bosom, waved it a few times at the flag of the commander-in-chief of the Qing army, and the other side also waved a flag in response, Song Qingfeng reached out to pull Peng Jingrong's rein, "Let's go, Jingrong."

Peng Jingrong suddenly raised the dagger and stabbed at Song Qingfeng, but Song Qingfeng reacted quickly and dodged the attack by turning sideways. Seeing that the hit was missed, Peng Jingrong sighed and turned the dagger to stab her own throat. Song Qingfeng had expected it. With a flash of sword light, he knocked down the dagger, and then quickly tapped the acupoints on Peng Jingrong's neck, and Peng Jingrong couldn't move immediately.

Seeing that her sister was restrained, Peng Jingwei raised her gun to shoot Song Qingfeng again, but Yang Meng who was beside her knocked off the spring force gun. Yu Xiaolong was unarmed, looking at Lu Gaozhi who was coldly holding a knife at him, he did not dare to act rashly after all.

Song Qingfeng promised the inner guards that after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, each of them will have a bright future.At first they were still a little hesitant, but they happened to encounter Yu Hualong's rebellion, and suddenly they had no way out, and surrendering to the Qing Dynasty seemed to be a bright road.The inner guards tied up the second lady who was yelling at her. Of course Yu Xiaolong couldn't run away. To the Qing Dynasty, he was still a good hostage. A group of people went to meet the Qing army brigade.

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from behind: "Are you leaving like this? My lords." Looking back, it turned out to be the mysterious iron-masked warrior.
