Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 329

There is a high hill in the east of Guangde City, which is now used as a camp.There is a small depression in the corner of this high hill. Due to the recent rainy days, there is a lot of water and silt, and the smell is not good.But now there are a few camps here, soldiers come and go, and these soldiers have more or less grass-green scars on their faces or arms, which are quite eye-catching.

Those who know the inside story can see at a glance that although these soldiers are also dressed in ordinary military uniforms, they are not Han people, but barbarians.

There have always been quite a lot of foreign ethnic groups settled in the south of Dajiang, such as Xi people, Li people, Guyue people, etc. There are so many ethnic groups that it is difficult to distinguish them, so they are commonly referred to as barbarians nowadays.There are not many of these barbarians in Jiangdong Wuzhong, but in the west of Zhejiang, they are distributed in large numbers in the vast mountains and plains. They can be found between Jingxiang, Guangxi, Henan and Ning.

Although many of this kind of barbarians have been sinicized, cultivate and cultivate mulberry, and live in huts, they look no different from Han people.However, among the remote mountains and swamps, there are also a lot of uncivilized barbarians. Because their ethnic groups have different origins, and there are many snakes, insects, and miasmas around their residences, they often maintain their unique customs in order to survive. Tradition and customs.

The grass-green markings on the bodies of these barbarians are a custom similar to that of witch doctors. The children of the tribe have squeezed various herbs to decorate their bodies with lines. On the one hand, they are the identity of the same clan, and on the other hand, they are begging for the protection of the gods.And these grass juices also have the effect of repelling insects and healing wounds. After a long time, they will leave extremely stubborn scars on the body and become a mark different from others.

In the eyes of the Han people whose parents suffered from physical, hair and skin, this kind of harm to the body is really unreasonable, and they can't help but look down upon them. They call these barbarians ghost-faced soldiers and don't want to have frequent contact with them.Therefore, the tents of these barbarians were also excluded and placed in extremely remote corners.

An old man in military uniform hurried over from the outside, scolded the barbarians who were playing too loudly outside the tents, and then bent down and walked into one of the tents that was slightly larger.

There are two barbarians in the camp, serving a young general Xiaoyi.This general was one of the people who was ordered to be whipped by the chief general Han Huang in the street. At this time, the armor had been removed, and there were piles of whip marks under the single clothes, dripping with blood, which showed that the executioner had not shown mercy.

"Go down first, I'll apply medicine for the general."

The old man waved his hand to signal the two barbarians to retreat, and then he walked to the bed and said cautiously: "This medicine is a bit strong, and it will cause pain, Alang, please be patient."

The young general raised his pale cheeks from the couch, forced a smile and said, "How can you be afraid of pain after such a fierce flogging? Uncle Meng, where did you buy this wound medicine? There are people in the camp Medicine to heal wounds, why waste this wealth!"

After hearing the words, the old man looked at the wounds on the young man's shoulders with a bit of regret, and said in a shy voice, "My lord entrusted me with his deathbed, and Alang is the only flesh and blood. He wants to restore his family's reputation in the future, and how can he be named as a marquis?" Chuang has lost his appearance!"

As he spoke, he carefully dipped the medicinal powder on silk and evenly sprinkled it on the young man's back.The wound medicine seemed to be extremely hot, and as soon as it fell off, the young man's body tensed up suddenly, and many drops of blood oozed from his back.It's just that he gritted his teeth tightly, grabbed the bed board with both hands, and didn't cry out in pain.

Seeing this, the old man couldn't bear it, and while tending to the young man's wound, he said bitterly: "Those Liyang ghosts are really ruthless, they want to punish A Lang to death! That's why Su Chang was tortured together earlier. , and is now walking around the camp without any injuries. Sooner or later, I will avenge this humiliation for you, Alang!"

"Uncle Meng, you are not young, and your temperament is more violent than mine. When we entered the army, we should have expected to be blamed, so why bother to engage in these emotional disputes..."

The young man smiled miserably and said in a weak tone.

After the old man heard this, he said in a solemn voice: "Ah Lang, don't think so, you are not from a barbarian background! The first lord is a fifth-class general appointed by the imperial edict. You are the old Wu official, and the world is endless, Alang, you are the real son of the crown, how can you treat yourself as a barbarian!"

After hearing this, the young man gave a wry smile: "I know that I should take over the family business and live up to my father and grandparents. But my mother's family is barbarians, so it's hard to deny that. If it weren't for these barbarian children who gave their lives to help me, I would have What can I hope to do if I am single in this world? Uncle Meng only needs to tell me this kind of words, and don't spread them outside to make people's teeth cold."

Hearing this, the old man nodded repeatedly and said, "It's best for Ah Lang to know what's important in his heart. If you can have clear knowledge yourself, how can I say this in front of others again?"

The young man's name is Hu Run, and his style name is Houze. Although he is in charge of the barbarian tribe, he is not from a barbarian tribe. He is originally from a wealthy family in Yuzhang, Jiangzhou.Just as the old man Meng Bo said, the Hu family in Yuzhang is also considered to be a family with an old surname in the south of the Yangtze River. Whether it is the old Wu or the Central Dynasty, it has been promoted many times, so it is not a poor family.

It's just that in the current atmosphere, the northerners call the Wu people raccoon dogs, the Wu people call the northerners scumbags, and both the north and the south call them Jiangxi people 傒狗, alienating and despising each other.Hu Run's family background is not commendable in today's Jiangdong, and it is slightly inferior to Wu Zhonghan's Wu Zong.

Moreover, in the generation of Hu Run’s father, his family suffered another catastrophe. Almost the whole family was killed in the military disaster. Only Hu Run’s father was rescued by some loyal family members and rushed to Yuzhou, where he hid in the barbarian army to avoid being hunted down. , with the son Hu Run.

As Hu Run grew up, he also learned about his family background from his father and other family members. His father's long-cherished wish in his life was to revive the family business, but unfortunately he passed away before his wish was fulfilled.Hu Run adhered to his father's will and led a group of barbarians to go out to make a difference, but it was a pity that there were too many old things to rely on back then, and Hu Run was older than the barbarians and neglected the world, so he was not valued by the world.

After several years of wasting, he finally stayed in Xuancheng. When Su Jun started an incident, he raised his troops to respond. Because the barbarians under his command were brave and good at fighting, and had outstanding records, Hu Run has now been promoted to the post of county magistrate. It has not yet been settled, and has not yet been appointed.

Although the barbarians are brave, they are often excluded and discriminated against.Earlier in the city, it was because other tribes wanted to compete for the spoils of the Hurun tribe, so they argued with each other and even started fighting.

Hu Run is already used to this kind of treatment, who knows that the only force he can rely on now is the barbarians, and these barbarians are loyal, and Hu Run is really reluctant to abandon them.

After the injuries were sorted out, Hu Run put on a single shirt and called all the troops to inquire about the battle results.He didn't pay much attention to money and the like, even if some were seized, he would be extorted by other powerful departments later.What Hu Run cares about the most is the harvest of people. Not to mention that he still needs strong soldiers to supplement, the side that starts a business in the future also needs enough manpower to rebuild the family business.

It's a pity that in this battle that he had placed high hopes on, he was caught by the coach on the spot because he was fighting with his friendly forces, and his troops were expelled from the city prematurely, which was equivalent to losing a chance of great benefits.Therefore, in this battle, not only did not much goods be confiscated, but even the people were not harvested. It was just that some useless old, weak, sick and disabled were mopped up in the suburban corners.

Hurun is very eager to revive his family business, and every opportunity is precious to him. The Battle of Guangde can be described as a very important battle. Not only did he not capture anything, he even gained little from his achievements .This was a bit unbearable for him, and after a moment of pondering, he called his confidants to his eyes and whispered: "Find some old and weak military uniforms to replace those old and weak prisoners, and find a secluded place for military merit. "

This kind of thing is not rare, so the few cronies were not surprised, and they withdrew after receiving the order to arrange the killing of good people and posing as meritorious deeds.

After giving these instructions, Hu Run lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep. He knew that the army would advance in the future, and if it really attacked the rich and prosperous land in Wuzhong, it would be the time of real harvest, so he would never allow himself to miss it. this opportunity.The injury must be healed before then, only then will Li Xun have a chance to capture it.

However, Hu Run didn't sleep for a long time, and was soon awakened by the noise outside the camp. He opened his eyes with some displeasure and asked, "What happened outside?"

Uncle Meng, an old man who treated Hu Run's injuries earlier, hurried in and whispered something in Hu Run's ear.After hearing the words, Hu Run's eyes suddenly lit up, and he ordered: "Help me up quickly, and take the person into custody, please come to the tent."

"Ah Lang, it's important for you to recuperate from your wounds. The humble people can take care of such trivial matters." Seeing Hu Run's attitude, Uncle Meng couldn't bear to say.

"Stop talking nonsense! Quickly invite people here, remember, don't hurt this gentleman!"

Hu Run said in a loud voice, he had reluctantly got up from the couch, gritted his teeth and put on a cloak.Seeing this, Uncle Meng didn't dare to persuade him any more, and hurried out.

Not long after, a burly man was pushed inside by the soldiers.This man has sprawling hair, slightly protruding ring eyes, and a short beard under his jaw like a hedgehog. He looks a bit old, but there is still a bit of youthful astringency between his eyebrows and eyes, which shows that he is not very old.After this young and mature man was pushed into the tent, he didn't look flustered, there was a sense of arrogance in his brows, and he didn't care about being in a cage at all.

Just as Hu Run was about to get up to greet him, his back hurt so badly, and the pain became even more unbearable after he made a gesture. He just waved his hands to signal the soldiers not to move rashly, and said in a deep voice: "I tell you not to offend this gentleman, how can you be so rude!"

The soldiers backed away in embarrassment, but the short-bearded boy stood where he was, looking down at Hu Run, and sneered, "It's a pity that you can't kill thieves without a sword!"

After Hu Run heard the words, he just forced a smile, and was not annoyed by it. He pointed to the young man and said, "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry to thin me. The wind blows up the dust. Those who can keep their eyesight clear and stand still are truly virtuous. That's the history of Huan Nei." Only a noble person can act. I am ashamed of the virtuous, but I admire the virtuous, and I am fortunate to see the legacy of the virtuous, which can satisfy my hunger and thirst."

That young man was Huan Wen, the eldest son of Huan Yi. Earlier, his father was betrayed, and he was rescued by the generals to send him away, but he fell into the hands of barbarians after many twists and turns on the way.I thought it would be difficult to survive, but when I heard the barbarian general praise my father so much, I felt proud and sad at the same time.

"It's not as long as it is right now, sir, please believe that I have no intention of harming you. Please listen to my arrangement. Later, you will pretend to be my troops and go on tour with the team. I hope that you will return to the good place as soon as possible with the protection of heroes."

Hu Run was already injured, and he was already struggling to support himself after saying these things. He had to rely on the support of his old family member, Uncle Meng, to sit still.

When Huan Wen heard this, he was taken aback. He had long had the desire to die, but he never thought that there was a possibility of escape.He has no doubts about what the general said, he is now unarmed in the enemy camp, if the other party intends to harm him, there is really no need to lie and deceive.For a while, he didn't know how to respond, and he remembered after a while and asked, "The name of the unknown general?"

"Yuzhang Hu Houze, if we can reunite in the future, my husband owes me a meal."

Hu Run waved his hand, indicating that the situation was urgent, and he would not have any further discussions with Huan Wen, and ordered the sergeant to take him down for preparation.

When Huan Wen left, Hu Run suddenly lay down on the table, with cold sweat on his forehead, and couldn't help but shouted: "It hurts me so much!"

The old man Uncle Meng hurriedly helped Hu Run back to the couch, and he didn't understand until Hu Run's breathing calmed down: "Why did Alang save people in danger? That Huan Yi treats Alang very lightly..."

Hu Run laughed when he heard the words, it was all nonsense to admire Huan Yi's style, and he didn't feel any sadness in his heart about Huan Yi's death, instead he felt somewhat happy.He lived in Xuancheng earlier, and because Huan Yi was known for his knowledge, he spent a lot of energy begging for a chance to meet him.

But he grew up in the barbarian tribe. Although he was brought up by his family, he was only fluent in writing and ink. .Later, when the Liyang army rose, he planned to mobilize the crowd to help defend the city, but he was repelled because there were too many barbarians in his army.Now that he committed himself to being a thief, half of him was persecuted by Huan Yi. It can be said that there is no kindness but hatred, so Meng Bocai was puzzled by his behavior.

"Li Yang's family is cold and humble. Martial arts can advance fortunately. In my opinion, it may not be successful. Huan Nei Shi's death in the country is a great festival. If you do this kind of good today, you may gain more in the future than fighting to the death in the past!"

　I wanted to create such a character for a long time, with conscience, tyranny, cunning, and persistence. I think this is the aspect of a person's state in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.The biggest impression of many book lovers is that one is the elegance of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and the other is the misery of the Wuhuluanhua. One era has two extremes, but the middle of these two extremes is unfamiliar to many people.It is true that Wei Jin Fengliu has an attractive side, but in fact it is just a layer of seemingly colorful oil flowers on the waste oil, and it is not worthy of excessive praise.People in this troubled world are more concerned with survival and superiority, confusing good and evil, seizing every opportunity and doing whatever they can.But it is absolutely undeniable that there are some real strengths of character, which are worthy of praise. That is the label and spiritual core of our nation, where the cohesion of culture lies.
