lady, please calm down

Chapter 382: Kou can come, and I can go too!

At the end of the ugly time, the lights in Sanjia Village were brightly lit.

After Chen Chu's troops arrived, he temporarily borrowed the front hall of Tao Yuan's wife's house as a headquarters.

After a group of villagers and Tao Yuan's family crawled out of the tunnel shivering, they heard that the King of Chu was coming and wanted to pay their respects.

Borrowing someone else's house and meeting the owner is the right thing to do.

However, when Tao Yuanwai was led into the front hall by his personal guards, he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

He had heard that the King of Chu was young, but he never expected that he was so young and handsome. He showed a gentle smile before he even opened his mouth. It was completely different from the rumored image of a rough warrior who killed people without blinking an eye.

"Exceptor Tao, I am making trouble late at night and occupying your noble house. I am ashamed and ashamed."

Chen Chu, who was holding up the lamp to look at the map carefully, turned around and said with a smile.

"What did the King of Chu say? If it weren't for the King of Chu who led the heavenly army to arrive, Old Man" This night was so thrilling that Tao Yuanwai couldn't hold back a choke. He adjusted his words before continuing: "If there was no King of Chu, Old Man's family and the three hundred people from Sanjia Village would have died." Folks in Yukou, I'm afraid tonight will be very bad."

This is true. Although there was no danger of life in the tunnel just now, hundreds of people were hiding in the dark and cramped underground, listening to the faint sound of horse hooves above their heads. This kind of depression and fear was something Tao Yuanwai had never experienced in his life. .

Chen Chu said a few words of comfort in a warm voice, just as the white-haired rat walked in from outside wrapped in cold air, clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, a total of 190 people have been captured since Wang Wenbao, the commander of the Hejian Prefecture, and below. How should we deal with them?"

"killed."

It was an understatement, but it shocked Tao Yuanwai. Everyone said that "killing prisoners is unlucky", but the King of Chu did not hesitate at all.

Although Tao Yuanwai hated the Jin soldiers, he also knew that the Jin country was powerful, so he killed everyone like this. Wasn't he afraid of the Jin country's anger?

But it has to be said that while Tao Yuan was worried about how King Chu would face the Kingdom of Jin in the future, he also felt very happy!

After a few words of conversation, Yang Erlang escorted Tao Yuan out of the front hall on behalf of Chen Chu. The white-haired rat continued: "Your Majesty, this place is full of plains. If our army cannot disperse and pursue, there will definitely be broken troops who will slip through the net and escape."

After a brief interrogation, it was known that there was a Jin cavalry army composed entirely of Jurchens in the lower reaches of the Jiehe River. The white-haired rat was a reminder that the broken troops fleeing outside Sanjia Village might pass on the news that the Huaibei Army had arrived at the battlefield.

In this way, the Huaibei Army lost its suddenness.

Chen Chu, who had already made a plan, said: "Brother Liang and Baoxi will lead the fourth and sixth regiments to search eastward. When they encounter the Alihe tribe, don't fight to the death, just drive them to the Kingdom of Jin!"

When Zhou Liang heard this, he came here in a hurry. Brother Chu mobilized five battalions of horse troops from the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 9th regiments in order to wipe out this group of invading Jin troops. A Lihe escaped, which is not a full achievement!

Now that Wang Wenbao's tribe has been destroyed, our side has a military advantage five times that of Alihe's tribe.

Under such circumstances, it is not in line with Brother Chu's temperament to want to drive away rather than destroy, making Zhou Liang feel aggrieved?

We have been brothers for many years, and he is very clear about Brother Chu's logic: "If you hit me, there is no reason not to let me fight back."

But what happened this time?

Is it possible that he is afraid that the opponent is a golden person and dare not kill him?

Zhou Liang desperately winked at Baoxi, hoping that he would speak with him and persuade Brother Chu to destroy this group of golden soldiers.

However, Baoxi had more confidence in Chen Chu than he did, and waited patiently for Chen Chu to give his next order.

Sure enough, Chen Chu paused for a moment and then ordered: "The eldest son, Xiang Jing, and Brother Kui, lead the 1st, 5th, and 6th regiments to follow me to the north bank to ambush!"

"call"

Several people in the hall made sighing sounds at the same time.

At the same time, I also understood the reason why Brother Chu made such an arrangement. He drove the Jin people across the boundary river. The Jin people felt that they had entered their own territory and would definitely relax a lot.

After all, in the inertial thinking of the soldiers of Qi and Jin, they all felt that the arrival of the Jin army to Qi was not unusual. But the Qi army's advance into Jin was something that had never happened before, and it was even something that many people couldn't even imagine.

The generals' achievements were achieved with Brother Chu's swords and kills. As long as there was a war, they didn't care about anything else. But when Chen Yinglang was present, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Even though he was not in the military system, he still couldn't help but remind him, "Principal! If you lead the army to cross the border river, the nature of the matter will be different! Principal, please think again!"

Chen Chu pondered for a few breaths, then said: "The bandits can come, and I can go too!"

The generals were shocked!

Since the death of Zhou Guoding, the Han people finally had the opportunity to face off against the Jin people. The surging anger that has been suppressed in their hearts for more than ten years finally has a chance to vent tonight!

They want to rectify the name of the Han family, and also want to break the psychological shackles of "the golden man is invincible" for millions of Han people!

Zhou Liang and Baoxi took the lead in leading their headquarters to the east.

When Chen Chu walked out of the Tao family's house, the open space in the center of the village was temporarily turned into a slaughterhouse. Most of the villagers from Sanjia Village who had just emerged from the tunnel gathered outside.

Scenes of executing prisoners are rare.

The women and children covered their children's eyes, but there were some bold children who stared at the scene of beheading from between their mother's fingers.

What happened tonight may become a psychological shadow for some children in the future.

But the adults knew that if the King of Chu had not led his army to come to the rescue, their fate would have been even worse than that of these golden soldiers who had fallen happily.

So, when Chen Chu walked out of Tao's house surrounded by generals, the people who had survived the disaster fell to their knees with cheers.

Chen Chu asked people to help the people, and then under the introduction of Chen Yinglang, he walked to the people in the prison camp.

Even if they show off their personal bravery, they look a bit miserable at the moment. Green Lin, Chabo, monks and Taoists, death row prisoners plus 900 prisoners, there are at least more than a thousand people.

But as soon as the battle started, half of them had escaped, and most of the four or five hundred people left were injured.

"This is Pan Guanying of the Prison Camp. The battle situation outside the village just now was unfavorable. Fortunately, Pan Guanying brought the martyrs to help!"

As soon as Chen Yinglang finished speaking, the burly Pan Xiong took a step forward, knelt down neatly on one knee, clasped his fists and shouted loudly: "Pan pays homage to the King of Chu!"

The hands of this long-famous Cangzhou hero actually trembled slightly.

If people want something, they will lose their normal mind.

Pan Xiong risked his life tonight just to get into the eyes of King Chu!

In his eyes, the King of Chu was his ladder to seek wealth and power, and a towering tree that he could climb.

Chen Chu held up Pan Xiong's arms, but he didn't want Pan Xiong to stand up, but he still knelt on the ground without getting up. Chen Chu couldn't help but smile and said: "Pan Guanying has made great achievements this time, what do you want?"

Pan Xiong said: "It is a villain's honor to contribute to the King of Chu! The villain doesn't want anything, he just wants to follow the King of Chu to make contributions!"

After saying no, he also expressed his determination to join the King of Chu's gang.

No matter what Pan Xiong's original intention was, he really did a great job tonight, and in order to reward him for his merits, he should be given an official position.

Qi Jin has completely lost his temper since tonight. In the next period of time, war and struggle with Jin should be Qi's top priority.

To fight against foreigners, you need to unite all the forces that can be united.

The subordinates composed of Pan Xiong and Ji from three religions and nine schools would not be bad at setting a template for the world's reckless heroes.

With this thought, Chen Chu leaned over again, helped Pan Xiong up, and said with a smile: "Pan Guanying will lead the brothers to cultivate for a few days, and I will arrange a future with you in the future!"

"Thank you King Chu!"

Just by the words of King Chu, Pan Xiong knew that he had obtained the key to becoming an official, and he was very excited.

Later, Chen Chu visited the battalion and company of the fifth regiment of Qin Shengwu and Kang Shitou. Their team was damaged by nearly half, and both the captain and deputy company commanders Qin and Kang were injured.

Chen Chu stayed in front of Qin Shengwu for a few more breaths, not knowing what to say. Mao'er's natal family was already weak, and the only uncle in the family who could be considered a close relative. Both his uncle and cousin Qin Shengwen worked in the Machinery Expansion Bureau of the Iron Smelting Institute. Although their salary was The salary is good, but if you take the scientific research path, your future ceiling is destined to be low. This cousin is the only one who can be considered a talent. If he has any shortcomings, the cat will have nothing to rely on in the future.

Qin Shengwu seemed to see something in Chen Chu's eyes, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother-in-law, I'm fine." After that, he jumped twice to show Chen Chu that he was intact.

But he accidentally pulled the wound. He couldn't help but grinned, but still said: "Brother-in-law, please don't tell my parents and sister what happened tonight."

He was worried that after his parents found out about the danger tonight, they would find his cousin and ask her to blow the pillow wind to move him back to the rear.

"Take care of your injuries first. No matter what you do in the future, you must be careful. My sister doesn't have many relatives."

Chen Chu was noncommittal and then walked to another place.

But Kang Shitou, who stayed next to Qin Shengwu the whole time, was very frightened, and looked at Qin Shengwu with a confused look in his eyes.

"Stone, what's wrong?"

"I, I, you, you, did you just call me the prince's brother-in-law?"

"Ah."

"Who is your sister!"

"Princess Chu"

"Didn't you say that your brother-in-law is a melon seller?"

"He did sell melons."

"Yeah!"

Kang Shitou was just a little dissatisfied because his brother had concealed his family background. Then he realized another thing and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Your sister is a princess! How come you have fed pigs, been a fire fighter, and fought on the front line like me?" ah!"

"Nonsense! What else can we do?"

"Isn't it good for you to ask the princess to ask the prince to transfer you to a comfortable place for a few years to gain qualifications? On the battlefield, swords and guns are blind. What if you die?"

"When you die, you die."

Qin Shengwu glanced at Kang Shitou as if he were an idiot, and then said calmly: "You heard it just now, my sister has few relatives. Except for the King of Chu, my family is the only one close to her in this world. Now that my sister has given birth to another young prince, I Only by fighting for fame with real swords can you become my sister's assistant in the future. If you have mixed qualifications, if someone has evil intentions and wants to harm my sister and nephew, how can I help her? "

"." Kang Shitou was stunned for a long time. Such high-level officials were far beyond his reach.

What Qin Shengwu said about "someday someone has evil intentions" did not mean that Mao'er's position was really threatened, but a princess whose natal family was too weak was less intimidating.

He, Qin Shengwu, wanted to be his sister's courage.

Kang Shitou and Qin Shengwu had a close relationship, and when they were in the Orphan Bureau, they were very affectionate towards the princess who often visited them. Tonight, Qin Shengwu suddenly opened his heart, allowing Kang Shitou to make a decision, and whispered: "Shengwu! If someone really wants to murder the princess in the future, don’t hide it from me, I will advance and retreat with you!"

"it is good!"

Qin Shengwu smiled and hugged Kang Shitou's shoulders. What he said just now was to achieve the effect at this moment.

In the future, the so-called "houdang" took shape in Sanjia Village, Hebei Road, in the late winter of the first year of Xuanqing.

Over there, when Chen Chulin set out, he saw the five Jiao Tu people in an inconspicuous corner.

Compared to the people in the Prison Camp not far away who were overjoyed because of the King of Chu's promise, his side looked the most lonely.

You are not allowed to take people out of the camp privately without receiving military orders from superior officers.

Ten men went into battle, five died, and one of the men had his right hand cut off. Jiao Tu cut off his own clothes and wrapped them for his brothers, but the blood was still seeping out quickly, and the blood dropped like dense drops on the snow.

The eldest son had just seen this man's skills. Now he saw that no one cared about the good man. He couldn't help but feel sad and hurriedly whispered to Chen Chu.

The eldest son rarely praised others in front of Chen Chu, so Chen Chu walked over on his own initiative.

After kneeling down just now, Jiao Tu and others naturally knew who the visitor was.

Seeing the King of Chu standing in front of several people, Jiao Tu and others, who were helping the war dead Paoze tidy up his appearance, quickly stood up and said, "I've met the King of Chu," and then became speechless.

There was no warmth like Pan Xiong at all, and he even showed visible embarrassment and nervousness due to the sudden sight of the powerful minister.

"Captain Jiao, you took the initiative to come to our aid tonight and made great contributions. What do you want?" Chen Chujiang repeated what he had just said to Pan Xiong.

But Jiao Tu didn't look excited. Instead, he looked a little sad. Then he looked at the corpses of Pao Ze that had just been collected and were lying in a row along the wall. He prayed a little: "I beg you. I beg the King of Chu to help these brothers." Purchase a few thin coffins for burial, if"

Jiao Tu obviously hesitated for a moment, but still said: "It would be best if they could give their family members a few more taels of silver as compensation. Also, my brother has broken his right palm. I'm afraid it will be difficult to work in the future. Can you please "

Jiao Tu groaned, but he still couldn't say the words to help the injured brother get some housing allowance.

There was no order from the superior officer to go into battle this time. He knew best the character of the Wuhe Army where Jiao Tu belonged. He had to go into battle under orders, and after layers of deductions and deductions, not even a tenth of the compensation for death in battle was left in the hands of his family members.

As for the injury, there is no settlement allowance at all.

Moreover, since Jiao Tu and others were not part of the Huaibei Army, it was indeed unspeakable for him to ask for pensions from the latter.

Somehow, the eldest son, who was very empathetic, felt sad in his heart when he saw Jiao Tu in embarrassment. What a good man, but he was forced into this state by a little money. This Wu Hejun is simply not worthy of such a hero!

"Brother Chu," the eldest son snorted like a shy little girl.

But Chen Chu understood that his brother wanted the Huaibei Army to help them slaughter them. Chen Chu would never let his brother down, so he immediately said: "Xiao Yi, take note."

Xu Xiaoyi quickly took out a pen and paper from his bag, waiting to write down Chen Chu's oral orders.

"Lao Bai sent a company of personal guards to take this brother." Chen Chu pointed at the Wu Hejun Broken Palm sergeant who was shaking due to pain, and continued: "Send this brother together with the other injured brothers. He was escorted to the Fucheng Military Medical Center for treatment and will be placed in our Huaibei Army after recovery. In addition, the five brothers of the Wuhe Army who died in battle will be compensated according to the regulations of the Huaibei Army, and their family members and children will be placed in workshops and schools."

The dictation of military orders on weekdays is far less detailed than tonight.

Chen Chu spoke carefully to reassure Jiao Tu.

After tonight, the Wu He and Wu Su armies, which had been stationary after the Jin soldiers entered the country, would inevitably undergo a purge. Chen Chu's move was also to win over the hearts of the middle and lower-level officers of the two armies.

But Jiao Tu originally just wanted to help his brothers beg for soup to prevent his family members from starving to death, but he didn't expect the King of Chu to make such an appropriate arrangement.

The feeling in my heart was hard to describe, and I couldn't control it for a moment. The hot tears flowed down the face of the dignified seven-foot-tall man.

Jiao Tu didn't know how to express his gratitude, so he knelt down and hit his forehead directly on the cold hard ground. He kowtowed several times.

The eldest son hurriedly stepped forward, helped the man up, and said with red eyes: "Brothers, you don't have to be like this! We junior brothers have always been like this, and we will never let the soldiers of the defending country shed blood, sweat and tears again!"

At this time, the white-haired rat came to report that the horse military camps of the 1st, 5th, and 6th regiments had completed their assembly outside the village, and could cross the boundary river north at any time to ambush the Alihe tribe in Jindi.

Chen Chu got on his horse and said to Jiao Tu: "General Jiao, do you have the energy to follow me to the land of Jin Kingdom?"

Jiao Tu wiped away the tears on his face and said loudly in a hoarse voice: "I am willing to follow the prince! Through fire and water, I will do whatever it takes!"
