golden scales

Chongzhen 19th year, March [-]th.

"Brother, I can't wait any longer! I heard from some Baoyi that this is Ningyuan City! After Ningyuan is Jinzhou, it will be too late even if you think about it!" Zhang Hanmin got into the tent and faced the black shadow in the corner. low voice.

The black figure raised his head, and with the faint moonlight, he could barely tell that it was Funing guarding Chen Yiyuan.He has been out of shape, the whole body seems to be only skin and bones left.This is the result of suffering from the wind and cold on the road, and lack of clothing and food, and has been dragged into this appearance all the time.If it weren't for his strong foundation, he would have been lying with the bones on the side of the road long ago.

Chen Yiyuan opened his mouth and said hoarsely, "It's too late now..."

The Funing Green Camp was transferred to Liaodong in early March to escort the students.Unexpectedly, as soon as they passed Shanhaiguan, their swords, guns and armor were confiscated. They were really unarmed, and only a club was given to each of them to intimidate the robbed refugees.

Originally, Chen Yiyuan didn't dare to act rashly because he didn't have enough weapons, only about a dozen pairs of armor, but the situation at this time was even worse.He originally thought that the situation was already at its worst, and there was bound to be a turnaround, and then he would plot an incident.

How do you know that Donglu's vigilance against the Han people is so high that it touches the sky, and the viciousness of his methods has no bottom line.

Donglu unexpectedly stopped distributing food and beverages, starving hundreds of people until they were exhausted, but they couldn't die of starvation. However, they and Baoyi could eat three meals a day, with wine and meat. , or pick a few men who are not pleasing to the eye and beat them up, or simply kill them, so as to establish their prestige.

At this time, there were already complaints in the green camp.But the original 500 people were split up and disrupted when they were in Shanhaiguan. Chen Yiyuan only led more than 100 miscellaneous soldiers, most of whom did not know each other. Fortunately, Zhang Hanmin was still with him.This saved him from being thrown into the wilderness because of his illness.

"Brother, there are complaints spreading in the camp, but there is a lack of someone to support the banner." Zhang Hanmin said in a deep voice, "I will tell you the truth, brother, I have already contacted a few good men who dare to die, and I just wait for my brother to climb up and shout. Then kill those clowns!"

"Why do you have to wait for me..." Chen Yiyuan was so weak that even his spirit was slack.

"Brother, I ask myself that martial courage is not inferior to others, but when it comes to loyalty, I still have to push brother." Zhang Hanmin said: "Brother, let's go against it!"

Chen Yiyuan patted the ground with his hand, and finally touched the club that was one person tall.He stood up holding the mallet, took a deep breath, and clearly visible ribs were printed on his chest.He knew that Zhang Hanmin had rebelled a long time ago, not only because he was pressed hard, but also because he was a self-motivated man.Now Funing Green Camp still has [-] to [-] elderly people, and a dozen or so of them are from the earliest Changping soldiers. These people are selling his face anyway.

Things have come to this point, even if Lu Chou doesn't come to kill him, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive for a few days.Simply fulfilled him.If this brother makes a name for himself in the future, there will always be people burning paper.

"Go and wake up our brothers, and pick a few strong and strong men from the refugees. Don't let the camp make noise." Chen Yiyuan ordered.

Zhang Hanmin regained his energy, jumped out of the tent, and went to contact his helpers first.In fact, no one can sleep tonight, and the captive soldiers added an extra meal during the day, which is the meaning of going on the road tomorrow.Walking this way to the northeast, every time you walk, you will get a layer of cold.In the past few days, several people have been freezing and starving to death every day.If you go further to the northeast, there will be no way out!

People share the same heart.It's the same reasoning, what's missing is a character who can ascend to the top.

The camp of the Green Battalion is on the east gate of Ningyuan City, and they live in tents.The few houses in the city that have not been burned.As well as the newly built barracks, the natural residence of the Manchurian masters.Even their coated Aha can sleep in the firewood room with bare clothes.In Ningyuan City, Manchu masters, Baoyi, green camps, and refugees have become four distinct classes.The lowest level of refugees can only tie their hands and hide from the cold wind under door openings and walls.

At the height of the moon, the night patrols of the wrapped slaves gradually slackened, while the Green Camp erupted with an unprecedented sincerity of unity and fighting to the death.Standing in the open space of the camp, these battalion soldiers held clubs or other bamboo and wood they found somewhere, quietly watching Chen Yiyuan who was walking slowly.

Chen Yiyuan took a breath of the cold air in the night sky, and breathed out a cloud of white mist under the firelight.He looked at the near-full moon in the sky and realized what he should say.

But what is there to say?Everyone was raised by their fathers and mothers, why should they be caught as slaves?

Chen Yiyuan secretly hated himself for his lack of literary talents, and suddenly remembered two years ago... well, three years ago, when he was still serving in the army in Changping.It was he who led a group of brothers who encouraged Paozhe in the camp to surrender to Li Chuang.What was said?Chen Yiyuan searched desperately in his mind, but he vaguely remembered saying: Daming is going to die, please leave early...

Alas, at the time when I said this, I seemed a little grateful and excited, but now I know that Daming is already pretty good, at least he doesn't treat people like animals.

"Brothers!" Chen Yiyuan shouted at the top of his voice, and his voice was immediately swallowed by the cold wind.He took two steps forward, then summoned up his breath and shouted: "What else is there to say? Just ask the brothers, should I die here or in Liaodong! Should I die like a human being or like an animal? Same!"

Just two sentences ignited the depression in everyone's heart and the fear of Liaodong.Indeed, instead of running thousands of miles to Liaodong to die, it is better to give it a go.If you live like this in the future, it would be better to be hacked with a knife!

"I'm willing to listen to Brother Chen's orders! Kill the ugly people! Grab the way to survive!" Zhang Hanmin knew that this kind of agitation must have a "supporter", otherwise even if Chen Yiyuan is eloquent, it will be of no use.

"Kill the Chou! Grab the way to survive!" The crowd shouted immediately, their blood was full of blood and their bodies were full of strength.

"Okay!" Chen Yiyuan pointed casually: "You guys go and release all the refugees. If you are willing to kill the Tartars with us, let them come with you; if you don't dare to kill them, find a place to live!"

The Manchurian Zhenyi who escorted the refugees had only a team of 20 people. Although all of them were armored soldiers and wore iron armor, they might not be the opponents of the hundreds of people here.However, with the addition of those coats that are the minions of tigers, the number of winners and losers is between five and five.If you consider that these Luchou eat and sleep well every day, and have cows and horses to travel all the way, while the green battalion soldiers have no meal, walking four hundred miles, the chances of winning the Luchou are much greater. .

— damn it!Killing one is enough money, killing two is still profitable!

Zhang Hanmin walked like a dragon and walked like a tiger, gritted his teeth and walked quickly.He had made up his mind a long time ago that he wanted to take these brothers to earn their lives back, so he was naturally unwilling to do things to save people.

"Brother Zhang, that's not right!" Zhang Hanmin's companion behind him suddenly stopped him: "Why is there no coat for patrolling the camp?"

As soon as Zhang Hanmin stopped, he immediately felt that the surroundings were too quiet.Just as he was hesitating, he heard a bang, and a feathered arrow tore through the air and flew over with a screaming sound.

Zhang Hanmin instinctively dodged to the side, his face hurt by the strong wind brought by the arrow.

"what!"

The green battalion soldier who held Zhang Hanmin just now let out a scream and fell to the ground, grabbing the arrow that pierced his eye socket with both hands.Zhang Hanmin took a look and saw that he still had the strength to howl and roll, knowing that the arrow had exhausted its strength and did not penetrate through the skull, but the eyes must not be kept.

"Straight mother thief! Dare to rebel! Kill them!" A Baoyi stood up, raised a steel knife, and shouted loudly.

He was obviously the leader of Baoyi Aha, and Zhang Hanmin happened to stare at him.

Zhang Hanmin's eyes were bloodshot, and he let out a low growl like a beast from his throat, and rushed forward dragging the mallet.The companion behind him looked at these Han people who were helping tigers in front of him, and he was even more resentful than seeing Lu Chou.It is these spineless coats who are willing to serve as slaves, in order to appear loyal in front of their masters, they often do even more inhumane evil deeds.

The leader of the coat didn't expect that these green battalion, like a homeless dog, could burst out with such blood. He was so frightened that he lost his courage and backed away again and again, still yelling loudly: "Kill them! Go!"

Other Bao Yis with knives in their hands stepped forward to hack, and seeing Zhang Hanmin's stature was a circle larger than others, and his expression was particularly ferocious, they avoided him one after another, rushed past him, and only wanted to kill the timid person behind him .This is also the reason why the brave live and the coward die in battle. No matter how skilled a warrior is, he will definitely not lose in courage, otherwise he will not be able to survive.

Zhang Hanmin heard the wailing sounds coming from behind him, and hit the back of a coated head with a big stick in his hand, only to see red and white splashing in the flames, before he could see clearly, he had turned around in a circle and continued to After two steps forward, another stick hit Baoyi's shoulder in front of him, and with the sound of bone cracking, another kick flew up, hitting Baoyi's stomach.

The wrap leader obviously saw such a fierce Nikan rushing towards him, but he didn't dare to look back.Although he is the leader of these coats, he is like an ant in front of the Manchurian military law. As long as he dares to turn around, the armored soldiers behind him will cut off his head without hesitation.

"Kill!" The coated leader finally roared, and rushed forward, but the steel knife in his hand felt quite heavy.

Zhang Hanmin roared angrily, but felt tightness in his chest and weakness in his hands and feet. After barely taking two steps, his whole body became weak and his feet staggered.Fighting and killing is the most energy-intensive thing, especially for those who have not undergone strict training and do not know how to spare strength, they often lose their strength after two or three fights.

In ancient times, generals have their own secrets of fighting strength, passing it on to their daughters-in-law but not to their daughters. It is precisely because of this that they can ensure that the general can kill dozens of people with his hands and build up his fighting power.Ordinary soldiers don't understand this truth. They have already exhausted their energy in one face-to-face encounter, and naturally they will lack energy in the future.

Bao Yi was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly went up to swing his knife to behead him, but he heard a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps outside, which was faintly like the sound of wind and thunder.

Someone drove the refugees up.
