Chapter 14: To live is to suffer Leading troops is as natural as eating and sleeping for Leng Ping and Wang Xuan, two thousand chaotic horse thieves, after only three days with them, they understand one thing, their commander is a very capable person.
The only thing that can convince a horse thief is wealth and brutality.
There is no shortage of these two things, Leng Ping and Wang Guan.
The ten pieces of agate thrown out of the archery competition have aroused all the desires of these horse thieves.
They had never encountered such a valuable thing on Tianshan North Road, and even if they did, they were confiscated by He Yuanwu.
After one inhuman robbery after another, only He Yuanwu and his eleven relatives became rich, but it was those Hu merchants who really got the biggest profits, or there was Da Lei Yin Temple.
Leng Ping and Wang Zhou saw all the sins in the world in Wuji City.
Neither of them is a good type, they were born on the battlefield strewn with corpses, and they have personally experienced more than one city massacre.
Whether out of human nature or out of hatred of their enemies, those who die by their swords are still counted as human beings, for their heads will be counted as military merits.
And in the city of black chickens.
Killing and torture for no reason happen all the time.
According to He Yuanwu, he would not be as stupid as Tie Xinyuan to feed these untouchables with his brother's rations.
Since he is a mortal person, it doesn't matter whether he is merciful or not.
"Kill this fang as soon as possible......"
Wang Xuan said to Leng Ping.
"Wearing down Mu Sin's combat power is the point, and bear with it."
"I can't bear it, seeing this guy kill people Lao Tzu's scalp is numb, and hacking a person to death is like cutting down a tree.
Lao Tzu prides himself on being a murderer, and compared to this guy, he looks like a vegetarian old monk. can't go on like this, Lao Tzu is worried that the son he gave birth will not be cold and smiled: "What we want to do now is something that has no end, what kind of back road do you want?"
” Wang Zhou shook his head and said: "I am different from you, I have already settled my home in Hami, I just want to make a good future under the hands of King Hami and leave a little family property for my children and grandchildren."
Sooner or later, you have to go back, even if you see hell here, after returning to the Great Song Dynasty, drink a meal of flower wine, sleep well, and forget everything.
Therefore, in this matter, Lao Tzu is not reluctant. ” Leng Ping asked in surprise: "What can you do if you are not reluctant?"
He Yuanwu's heart has long been dark, and it doesn't make sense to reason. ” Wang Xuan looked at Leng Ping and said, "I think there may be a way to survive by handing over these people to the king?"
” Leng Ping smiled bitterly: "Don't make trouble for the king, you don't know about the stomach that was hungry for most of the year last year."
He Yuanwu was hungry and scared, so he set up a mountain and pulled the banner by himself. ” Wang Xuan smiled and said: "I estimate that the king may accept it, there are few people here, what do you think if we are willing to buy them with silver and send them back to Hami?"
At the very least, let the Hami Uighurs, who do not know what to do, know what kind of life they have lived without the protection of the king.
In this way, there will be fewer rebels. ” Leng Ping smiled at Wang Xuan and said, "Haven't you seen it yet?"
The king had already disliked the Uighurs too much, which made it difficult to govern the region.
By the time we arrived, the first batch of prisoners escorted by the Great Song had already arrived at the territory of the Caotou Tatars.
The king wanted to use the prisoners of the Great Song Dynasty to increase the number of Song people in Hami, and finally let the Song people have an absolute advantage.
You see, in the future, all the prisoners of the Great Song Dynasty will be sent to Hami, and your method will not work. ” Wang Xuan was stunned for a moment, then looked out the window and asked in a low voice, "If I give these people to the king, the king won't cut off my head, right?"
” Leng Ping hesitated and said, "Probably not!"
” Wang Xuan stood up and reached out towards Leng Ping.
"What for?"
"Borrowing money, He Yuanwu only recognizes money now and does not recognize people......
I said that some slaves were sold to Hami. ” In July, the plateau grass grows and the warbler flies, and the dense barren grass almost floods the ancient road.
This year's pasture is growing very well, but there are no shepherds, cattle and sheep grazing on the grassland, and the Hami country's border clearing plan is very well implemented, and the army continues to sweep, so that the remaining grass and Tatar here have gone to graze farther away.
A few horses galloped and disturbed the pheasants and hares resting in the grass, and they flew or jumped and fled into the depths of the moor.
There are very few trees in the wasteland, and even if there are, they don't grow much, and a two-foot tall wild elm tree spreads a huge umbrella cover, which is extremely eye-catching in the wasteland.
The knight at the head reined in his horse, jumped down from his horse tiredly, and led the other two dismounted knights into the shade of the tree. took off the leather armor on his body, and faced the cool breeze with his bare chest, which was indescribably comfortable.
Two of them unarmoured, and the other stood guard in the shade of a tree, and by their attire they knew that they were three scouts.
They had only time to rest for a stick of incense, and a black line slowly appeared on the wasteland from the distant col.
The three scouts were not alarmed, and still stood in the shade of the trees waiting for the group of people to come over, looking very irritable.
A scout wiped the sweat from his neck with a dirty sweat towel, and said angrily to the scout who was the leader: "Liu Tou, why haven't the people of Hami come to receive these thousand swordsmen?"
” The scout led by him took a sip of water and moistened his throat and said, "I will send the thief prisoner to your house, are you willing?"
” The scout said angrily, "How long will we serve this group of killings?"

You can't send them to Fragrance City, can you?
After the territory of Caotou Tatar, there is 800 miles of Hanhai in front of you, and how many people can go to Hami alive after crossing the Hanhai under the poisonous sun?
” Liu Tou sneered and said: "This is not what we have to worry about, naturally someone from above will stand up and dock with Hami, at most out of the territory of Caotou Tatar, and our errand will be over." ” As he spoke, the long procession had already reached the foot of the big elm tree, and the one who was at the forefront ran quickly into the shade of the tree, tore off his clothes and lay on the ground as a corpse.
The catchers stopped, and the group of prisoners behind them naturally stopped, and looked enviously at the catchers who ran into the shade of the trees, sat on the ground, and began to drink water and eat dry food.
This is a group of prisoners from Tokyo, both men and women, most of them are able-bodied, and few are old and infirm.
As early as when Tokyo began to distribute, the government had already eliminated the old and weak, and even if these people stayed in the Great Song Dynasty, they couldn't make any waves.
Tong Pan is only forty-three years old this year, but he looks like he is sixty years old, working in the book printing workshop all the year round, and his waist can no longer be straightened.
Tongzi supported his father, dragged his wife, and carried a child behind him, and when the family saw that the team had stopped advancing, they sat quietly on the side of the road drinking water and eating dry food.
Tongzi took the water hyacinth to his father, but Tongban stuffed the water hyacinth to his grandson, and looked at his daughter-in-law and said: "Hold on, wait until you get to Hami, and your father will go to ask the grandmother of the Tie family, our family will always have a good life." ” Tongzi's daughter-in-law nodded obediently, but moved her body closer to her husband Tongzi's side, and the strong man behind her always leaned towards her.
The honest Tongzi and his daughter-in-law sat in another place, and the strong man glared at a pair of bull's eyes and said, "The thief is imprisoned, can't Lao Tzu get a little bit of your wife's yin qi?"
” Tongzi continued to eat the dry food without saying a word.
When the strong man saw that Tongzi didn't dare to make a sound, he sneered and said: "Lao Tzu is just beating a few stuffy sticks, and there is a day to go back to Tokyo to play."
You thief prisoner is a prisoner of heaven, don't think about going back to the Great Song Dynasty in this life, stay here and be swallowed by wild dogs. ” Tongban coughed, gritted his teeth and said to the strong man: "Han Liuzi, do you think our group of people still have the life to go back to Tokyo?"
” The strong man was a little panicked, looked around, and said with a dry smile: "Why can't you go back?"
” Tongban coughed and smiled: "You know you can't go back, do you?"
You know. ” The strong man stood up abruptly and pointed to the copper plate and scolded: "Even if you can't go back, there are six brothers in Lao Tzu's family, and none of them is nothing without me, unlike you, the whole family has been served in one pot."
Your ancestral grave has probably been dug by foxes now, right?
” Tong Pan just smiled and stopped making a sound, but his two hands were holding the trembling copper all over, preventing him from fighting with the strong man.
"Son, our family's shop in Tokyo is gone, and the family property is gone, this is nothing, our family has printed the wrong proclamation of the government, which is the will of the government, and there is such a big mistake, it is good that no one has a head on the ground.
Originally, I only needed to come to Hami alone, but I didn't expect you stupid boy to come with me, and I suffered my grandson and daughter-in-law......"
Tongzi looked up at his father and said, "The shop is gone, the printing plate has been burned, the house has been confiscated, and our family has nothing left in the Great Song Dynasty."
There is no ancestral inheritance to keep, so it is natural to guard the father, no matter what, the family is always better together.
When the child heard that Brother Yuan became the king in Hami and married the eldest princess, he thought that Bai Hami might have a way to live.
I just didn't expect the road to be so far. ” When the strong man saw that the father and son did not return the favor, he thought that he had won, so he boasted to other prisoners about his former glory in Tokyo.
The wind blowing in the wasteland was hot, and when the wind cooled down, the sky above me became pitch black.
At the order of the head catcher, the scout began to mount his horse and continue to explore the way, and the catchers kicked and cursed the prisoners to hurry away.
If there is a heavy rainstorm on the flat ground, it will soon turn into a swamp, and these people will not have to go out.
The thunder continued to sound, and fork-shaped lightning flashed overhead, and after a thick drop of rain fell, a white and bright pillar of rain poured down.
The copper plate and copper supported the coat and worked hard to protect the grandson and daughter-in-law under him, the cold rain hit his back, the copper plate looked at the sky, let the rain fall on his face, and said tremblingly: "To live is to suffer." ”
