Volume 1 Chapter 10 Encountering the Rebellious Soldiers
"When I return from a hundred battles, I will promise you a life of glory!"
As soon as these words came out, Meng Feiyu's face changed drastically.
This is absolutely appropriate for the situation.
Qin Pojun felt a tingling sensation all over his body after hearing this, as if he had received an electric shock. This is what a general should say!
He couldn't help but roar: "Damn, this sentence is so beautiful."
"It tells the story of the iron-blooded nature of men and the tenderness of women."
"This is what poetry is!"
He even thought about himself, in white clothes and robes, about to go on an expedition, saying to Sister Wan who came to see him off, "When I return from a hundred battles, I will promise you a life of glory!"
How cool that is.
Even though the village head, Erniu, Heiwa and others didn't understand, they felt that Bai Qi's words perfectly crushed Meng Feiyu.
It even makes them feel boundless ambition and passion!
It seemed as if another inexplicable emotion was about to burst out of my chest.
And the woman in gorgeous clothes had an even uglier expression on her face. She originally wanted to show off in front of others, but now she became a foil to others.
The most important thing is that she had never heard such beautiful, domineering and poetic sentences. Even in the Book of Songs, she could not find such heart-touching sentences.
She even envied Miao'er. Bai Qi was so powerful that he could tear tigers and leopards apart with his bare hands. She originally thought that he was a crude warrior, but Bai Qi's literary talent could touch people's hearts.
How enviable it would be to be able to spend time with a man like this.
For example, Miao'er at this moment has become the object of everyone's envy.
Although she was wearing a tattered wedding dress, she seemed to be surrounded by supreme glory.
Miao'er had already become crazy and drunk.
She didn't understand what literary charm was, but at this moment she felt that she was sweeter than the heroine in the opera.
"Brother Bai Qi, Miao'er feels so happy."
Miao'er's pretty face was shy, and she was obviously not used to being the center of attention. She was at a loss as she held the bronze key given to her by Bai Qi, which was extremely adorable.
Bai Qi rubbed her hair, his eyes full of pity.
"hateful!"
The woman in gorgeous clothes secretly resented why she could only find a man like Meng Feiyu, while Miao'er could have a monster like Bai Qi.
Her innocence should be picked by a man like Bai Qi.
...........
Honghua City.
The big border city guarded by the Yang family army was the first line of defense against the Huns. It was located in the northwest border, in the upper reaches of the Yellow River.
Bai Qi and his men were heading towards here.
Along the way, Yang Tianbao continued to recruit new soldiers from other counties, and the total number exceeded one thousand.
However, what surprised Bai Qi was that he actually saw several people from the same village among the new recruits: Erniu, Heiwa, Huilu, and Tiedan.
"Why are you here? Didn't you choose the Qin Army?"
Erniu touched his head and said honestly, "It was the village head grandfather who asked us to follow you. He said, if you tell us to do something, we will do it."
"Yes, yes, yes, the village head said that you are the smartest person in our village, and you will have meat to eat if you follow me!"
"Brother Bai Qi, the village head said that if we follow you, we might even become generals and marry fair-skinned girls from the county."
"Just like Meng Feiyu's lover."
When they thought of the woman in gorgeous clothes, a hint of obsession appeared on their faces.
This is the white moonlight in their hearts.
Bai Qi was speechless. Does this old village head trust him so much?
Among the new recruits, people from other counties and prefectures were dissatisfied when they saw that Bai Qi was so prestigious, especially when they saw that Bai Qi was holding a silver spear with a tiger head in his hand.
That would make me even more jealous.
"Another young master from a wealthy family trying to gain credit!"
This is the kind of people that the Qin people can't stand the most, and they immediately express their dissatisfaction.
"Bullshit! Brother Bai Qi is the best warrior in the Great Zhou!" Erniu immediately retorted when he heard someone slandering the strongest king of his village.
"Bai Qi, you have a name and surname, and you still say you are not from a noble family?"
"Do you really think I don't know that our Qin people 'Meng Xibai' are the three noble families?"
For a time, there were constant doubts.
Erniu and the others were speechless when asked.
At this moment, the army arrived at a village, and suddenly there were shouts and screams coming from inside.
"Damn, there are bandits here?"
"Brothers, kill them!"
More than a thousand soldiers rushed in, shouting, but were dumbfounded once they entered.
Because these were not bandits entering the village, but a team of thirty soldiers. Moreover, judging by their clothes, they were actually the defenders of Honghua City.
The thirty-man army also saw the new recruits and immediately picked up their weapons and became alert.
The leader rode on a horse, holding a spear in his hand. He cursed inwardly, then rode forward and said, "I am the captain of the armored group of 30 people. I have been ordered by the general to search for the Xiongnu spies."
"This is none of your business, leave immediately!"
When the new recruits heard that they were ordered to search for Hun spies, they all wanted to leave.
But at this time, a woman in disheveled clothes came running over, crying and wailing, "They are not human beings. They entered the village and burned, killed and looted. My daughter was only 16 years old, and she fell into their hands."
boom--
All the recruits felt their scalps tingling.
He immediately rushed into a thatched hut and saw a woman who had been beheaded. Next to her body, a brother and sister, who were only about eleven or twelve years old, were crying bitterly.
They checked other thatched huts and found that the situation was similar. The men were beaten to death or disabled, and the women were murdered.
"You call this searching for spies? This is clearly allowing the soldiers to plunder!"
"kill!"
The old Qin people were filled with passion and clenched their weapons tightly, ready to tear these beasts into pieces.
“Who dares!?”
The leading captain shouted angrily, took out his token, and snorted:
"I am the personal soldier of the military supervisor Pan Hu. In Honghua City, the only person with a higher official position than my master is Marshal Yang Wudi!"
"Don't even mention that we killed some civilians. Even if we massacred this whole village, it's not something you can do as you please!"
"Besides, I am the captain, and you are just ordinary soldiers. If you attack me, you are committing insubordination!"
"Since you are all from Qin, you should know that military law is as strong as a mountain!"
The recruits were poured with cold water and calmed down instantly.
Yes, he is a personal soldier of the military supervisor of Honghua City. Even if he is guilty, it is not something they, the new recruits, can deal with.
Moreover, according to the military law of the Great Zhou Dynasty, those who commit crimes against their superiors will be put to death without mercy!
The recruits were very angry but helpless. After all, Yang Tianbao was not there, and everyone here was a soldier, and no one had a military position.
The captain slapped the face of the recruit who had just shouted the loudest with his spear and said arrogantly: "Come and kill me, why are you scared?"
The man was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead, but he didn't dare.
At this time, the young man in the thatched hut rushed out, his body covered in blood, his eyes like a wolf, and he chopped at Captain A's neck with a machete.
“Bang!”
The machete was not accurate enough and hit the helmet, causing the captain to stagger, but did not hurt him.
He turned around and kicked the boy in the heart.
"You little brat, you're the only one who wants to kill me? You should have killed your sister as well."
The captain arrogantly spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at the young man.
Captain Jia's men immediately formed a circle around the city to protect their leader.
When the young man saw that revenge was hopeless, he fell to his knees and begged the new soldiers, "I beg you uncles and brothers, avenge my mother! She was cut in half by that beast and died in agony."
Hearing this, Bai Qi felt his brain buzzing.
Back then, his mother was also cut in half. She was in pain for a full half hour before she breathed her last.
How tragic it was.
"kill!"
Bai Qi's eyes turned bloodshot, he raised the tiger-head silver spear and rushed towards the captain.
