Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 604: Simple things

In the flat fields, a group of Zhoujun horsemen spread across the road. There is also a Han'er wearing a short coat of ordinary people in front of him, pointing to a village deep in his sight and saying: "General, the Khitan people stationed nearby are there!"

At present, a military commander stretched his neck and looked to the east, his gaze staying on the flag on the village... Obviously, ordinary villages do not need to plant a flag.

The military commander immediately said: "Let's clean up these small places for the forwards. Wang Junshi!"

"The end will be!"

The general stretched out his palm forward, then turned to the right, and said flatly: "You lead your headquarters to attack from the left flank, and copy the bread from the north to the east!"

"Telling!"

"Envoy Li, you go to the right."

"Telling!"

Just before and after a few snaps, the military commander immediately drew out his sword, raised it upright, and said loudly, "Leave the rest with me! Kill all those with bald hair on top of their heads and those in weird clothes!"

The military officer behind him immediately reminded: "Does the general kill the civilians, is there a life on the peak?"

The military commander said coldly: "Someone went to your yard to burn, kill, and looting without your permission. What is the reason for using a knife? Hebei is our territory!"

After he said, he pointed Jianfeng forward. After hearing the military commander's words, the army immediately slapped their horses to speed up, and the sound of horses' hoofs and shouts immediately raged on the snow-covered countryside.

The horses ran faster and faster, and a group of horses rushed out violently, and the iron armor was bright and reflective in the snow. Although there were only a few hundred rides, it seemed unstoppable.

There was a simple arrow tower built of wood and a thatched roof on the entrance of the village, as well as fences and gates. The horse group did not stop, and rushed towards the gate of the village.

"Swish swish..." A burst of arrows shot out from the village. There was a clinking sound like a stone thrown into the water, and it didn't affect the charge of Zhou Jun's horses wearing iron armor.

The sergeant on the arrow tower pulled a bow and shot an arrow at a horse. Sure enough, the leather armor on the horse was not very defensive. With a neigh, a horse knelt on the front hoof, and the man on the horse screamed and fell.

But Zhou Jun Ma team rushed to the front in an instant, "Papa Papa..." Many arrows were nailed to the wood of the arrow tower. The sergeant on it suddenly turned pale, and as expected, he immediately hit a few arrows and fell from it. "Bang!" The corpse with arrows smashed to the ground, like a bird shot from the sky.

"Bang!" There was another loud noise, and Yiqi went so far as to knock over the wooden fence. A group of horse soldiers swarmed in from the gap. A group of Liaoqi rushing generals inside came up to fight, and for a while, there was a loud crash and fight.

Zhou's soldiers and horses continued to flood in like a flood, and those Liao riders were immediately swept by a large number of horses and swept into the tide of horses and horses.

The horsemen on the left and right wings also broke through the fence a few ways and rushed in. Under the gray sky and between the old houses, the sky was bright and the rockets were thrown onto the roof. Throwing torches littered, a big fire ignited within a short time, and smoke billowed in the village.

"Rumble..." The roar of horseshoes rang loudly in the thick smoke, and only the soldiers of the Zhou army were seen on the road.

A dog barked its tail and ran out of a burning room. A Zhoujun knight leaned on the side of a galloping horse, slapped his bow and let out an arrow, and the dog barked and fell to the ground.

Soon many Khitan people and Xi people rushed out of the fired room. First they knelt on the side of the road and raised their hands diagonally and said something, but the Zhou army generals didn’t bother them, they just kept flying from the horses. Arrow out. Those people got up and fled. They were chased by Wufu Zhou Junwufu on horseback. They caught up with a knife and screamed from time to time in the fire.

In less than half an hour, the village had turned into a black smoke-filled ruin, with corpses everywhere, and a burning smell filled the air.

Every so long, the forward leader Shi Yanchao rushed here with a team of troops, commended the military commander who led the army on the spot, praised him for his good work, and credited him with his first battle after Liao.

Some people along the road were not afraid of martial arts. People heard that Wang Shi was expedition to the north and sent food and drinks along the road.

Shi Yanchao was very pleased to see this scene, and in front of the people, he gave a loud order: "Leading the orders, the people of Han people in Hebei, no one is allowed to kill!"

But he soon found a woman crying on the side of the road holding her baby.

Shi Yanchao saw that the woman was wearing a coarse cloth dress, completely dressed up as a Han, and he asked casually, "How much does that woman cry?"

A military commander hurriedly replied: "The final admiral asked someone to intervene just now. The woman seems to be called Xu Erniang or Wang Erniang, but her man is a Khitan. The man was killed and the house was burned down, so we cried there. I ignored it."

After he said that, the military commander added another sentence: "Most of the local women from the Khitan family were robbed."

Shi Yanchao was unhappy riding the horse, frowned, and repeated: "Then how much does she cry?"

The general was taken aback for a moment, stretched out his hand and scratched his forehead, and said hurriedly: "She was robbed, maybe she shouldn't care about the Khitan who died... But the Khitan is the father of her child, and her child has no father. , I may feel pitiful. Marshal, the woman has motherhood and cares about children very much."

Shi Yanchao expressionlessly said, "I still want to teach you such a simple thing? Without that kid, wouldn't she have nothing to do with the Khitan people?"

The general was stunned, but immediately clasped his fists and said, "Subordinates understand!"

He turned the direction of the horses, left the team, rode the horse back and drew the sword from his waist, jumped off the horse, and walked towards the woman.

The woman looked at Zhou Jun's general with teary eyes, and sighed lightly when she heard him.

The military commander walked up to the woman, glanced at her, stretched out his hand and scratched his forehead. The woman stopped crying and looked at him suspiciously.

The general suddenly lifted the sword lightly and poked it on the swaddle in her arms. His actions were an understatement, but he was quick and accurate, and immediately pulled the sword back.

The woman was taken aback, and looked down, blood stained from the swaddle in her arms. Her face suddenly changed. She stretched out a hand and saw the blood in her hand. She lifted the swaddle to look, and her body trembled.

"Ah!" the woman screamed, calling the boy again and again.

She immediately rushed to the military commander like she was mad, and a few sergeants immediately stopped her and grabbed her without saying anything. Naturally, the woman's strength was not as strong as that of a group of imperial soldiers, and she couldn't move at the moment. There was no way to take the general, so she watched him go.

In a blink of an eye, Shi Yanchao forgot the trivial matter just now, and dispatched a large force of forwards to continue northward.

...The Zhou army forward had 18,000 horsemen, and there was no decent resistance along the way, only sporadic conflicts occurred, sweeping away the Liao army strongholds along the way.

In the back, the main force of Guo Shao's Chinese army followed the forward and crossed the Juma River, and a large number of troops poured into the border of Liao.

The endless wilderness and the unmelted snow on the dark soil, this land is like an old man, showing the traces of time. On a few large roads, the horse group moved slowly and mightily north, and countless flags were waving in the wind.

The men and horses are all the Zhou army forbidden army, countless people wear similar armor, and it is difficult for the soldiers inside to tell who is who.

Zhao Hu was one of them. He rode his horse in the crowd silently, just following the people. The horses walk slowly, which feels slower, but the infantry walks much faster.

At this moment, he suddenly found a person standing there alone beside the broken wall in front of him.

Zhao Hu was immediately attracted attention, not only that the person looked strange, but also that the figure seemed familiar. He didn't say a word for a while, just fixed his eyes on the man to move on. The soldiers around also found the woman, but no one paid any attention... a woman who was unarmed and in disgrace was not worthy of the army's intervention.

As he got closer, Zhao Hu finally recognized it, and his expression immediately became exaggerated. The slow movement immediately hurried up, kicking the horse belly and rushing out of the queue.

"Zhao Hu!" Ten General shouted from behind.

Zhao Hu was anxious, but he was afraid of military laws, so he quickly shouted: "I know the people over there..."

When she shouted here, the woman turned her head and looked over. Zhao Hu ran in front of her, turned over and jumped off his horse, walked quickly over, his eyes widened: "Xu Erniang... Erniang..."

The woman named Xu Erniang also looked at the young man in armor and sharply who came over: "Are you Zhao Hu?"

"Yes!" The expression on Zhao Hu's face was very complicated, his face almost distorted. He walked up to Xu Erniang, opened his mouth, and finally uttered a word: "Erniang, you..."

Zhao Hu's heart was chaotic for a while, and countless scattered memories came to his mind, beating the slender figure in wet clothes by the pond, looking at the miller who she dared not approach... and the broken women's clothes in the Xu family yard. And blood on the straw.

Now, the woman in front of her was pale, with disheveled hair, and straw dust on her long hair, and her coarse clothes were dirty and messy. She is no longer the little girl she used to be, but now she is a woman.

Zhao Hu gritted his teeth, his eyes were astringent and sour, his throat squirmed, and his throat smelled of salt.

Xu Erniang's eyes suddenly burst into tears: "They killed my child~www.readwn.com~ Zhao Hu exhaled and trembled: "You have a child? Who killed your child? "

Xu Erniang raised her arm and pointed at Zhou's army on the road.

Zhao Hu lowered his head and thought for a while, and probably guessed that her child was the Khitan who robbed her, and the one who killed her child was Zhou Jun's striker.

Zhao Hu was silent for a moment, and said: "Your brother was killed by the Khitan at that time, don't you know?"

"What?" Xu Erniang's eyes widened, tears filled her eyes, and suddenly she knelt down to the cold ground.

Zhao Hu stood there, the woman in front of him was the little girl he missed day and night, but now he didn't know what to say. What has become of the beautiful young lady who would blush once once!

Zhao Hu looked back on this land, not knowing where he was for a while. I don’t even know, what caused all this...
