Chapter 582: Encountering Refugees
In the end, the five people discussed. Guiguzi and Huangshi went to find the emperor's master, while the other three went to Xianyang City to join the Ministry of Education.
In fact, they have many books that they want to pass down, but just relying on their handwriting, they don't know that it will take until the Year of the Monkey and the Year of the Horse to have tens of thousands of books.
But the imperial court has movable type printing. As long as the imperial court is willing, they can print a hundred thousand copies or even a million copies.
This is one of the reasons why they want to go out.
On the other side, Meng Tian has led Mo Dao soldiers to leave Xianyang City for three days.
They were supposed to have experienced three ambushes along the way, but all three times were eliminated by special forces in advance. Unfortunately, no one was left alive.
This incident was seen by Li Zuoche's scouts and reported it to Li Zuoche.
After learning about this, Li Zuoche instantly understood that his plan had been seen through, and now it was basically impossible to sneak attack on the opponent.
But it was impossible for him to give up. He could only fight hard and use cavalry to deal with others.
He knew that Meng Tian led infantry and did not ride horses, so he only needed to use cavalry to deal with them.
Li Zuoche has now chosen the location for the ambush, which is in Yuanyang. It is very close to the border, but he cannot rush to the rescue immediately.
Moreover, the ambush point was specially arranged so far away in order to make Meng Tian and the others relax their vigilance.
The first three waves of people are the limit.
Meng Tian was in a hurry, and the special forces had checked various ambush points along the way, but no one was found in the ambush, so they were in a hurry all the way.
Because no ambush point was found, Meng Tian relaxed a little. Fortunately, there were no ambush along the way, otherwise they would definitely have been tricked.
Even if it's not the best ambush point, you might still get caught.
This was Meng Yi's mistake, and it was also Li Zuoche's mistake.
None of them thought that they could ambush in the most unlikely place. In this way, even if Meng Tian and the others could not be completely wiped out, they could at least cause some damage.
As long as traps are set along the way, Meng Tian and the others may not be able to catch up even if they want to.
However, such opportunities were ruined by everyone.
Meng Tian marched all the way, but before he reached Yuanyang and met Li Zuoche's surprise troops, he met a group of refugees, including men, women, old and young.
"What's going on?" Meng Tian frowned slightly and looked at the group of people warily.
"General Meng." Wei Hu, the commander of Mo Dao Soldiers, said, "This is a group of refugees. Let's go ask what happened."
Meng Tian said: "This place is getting closer and closer to the border, and a group of refugees suddenly appeared. Could it be that the Huns are coming?"
"Let me go and inquire." Wei Hu said.
After Meng Tian thought for a few seconds, he nodded and said, "That's fine, but be careful. Meeting refugees at this time may not be a good thing.
The most important thing is that there are only a few refugees, less than a hundred, which makes me feel even more strange. "
When Wei Hu heard this, he did feel a little strange. There were a little less refugees.
Therefore, Wei Hu came to the woman in front with vigilance and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you and why are you here?"
When the woman saw Wei Hu, she immediately showed fear, knelt down and begged for mercy: "Master, please spare us, we have given all the fields to you.
We only brought a few clothes, nothing, nothing. "
After saying this, the woman seemed to be very afraid of Wei Hu, and made several mistakes in opening her bags.
Other refugees also knelt down to beg for mercy and opened their packages.
Meng Tian saw Wei Hu messing around with the refugees, so he stepped forward and asked, "What happened?"
Before Wei Hu could explain, the woman on the side shouted loudly: "Master, spare your life. We have left our home and gave all our property to Master, please spare us."
When Meng Tian heard this, his frown deepened.
Yes, there is an army harming the people. This is never allowed to happen. Could it be Han Xin’s doing?
Impossible, Han Xin was sitting at the border, how could he have time to harm the people? If Han Xin was really such a person, the history books would not only write that Han Xin was a soldier, but not other things.
Han Xin even promoted those who let him get into his crotch to the rank of captain.
After denying Han Xin, Meng Tian thought about the local army again, which was even more impossible. The management of the local army was very strict and it was impossible to do anything to harm the people.
While Meng Tian was analyzing, an old woman fainted on the ground, and the child next to her was pushing the old woman, shouting: "Big mother, big mother, don't worry, wake up..."
Meng Tian came to his senses and immediately came to the old woman and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
The person next to him replied, "We haven't eaten in three days."
Wei Hu on the side said: "General Meng. We need to take care of this matter, otherwise we will be useless as soldiers."
Meng Tian refused directly: "No, attacking the Xiongnu is the most important, other things can only be put aside." Kansula
"Then take them with you, wait until the border, settle them first, and finally help them seek justice." Wei Hu said solemnly.
Meng Tian nodded and said, "Okay, let the brothers take out the dry food first and let everyone eat some, and then we continue on our way.
Wei Hu, please explain the situation to everyone so that they don't get emotional. "
"promise."
Wei Hu then distributed the food to the refugees, then told them about their situation, and promised to help them find justice after defeating the Huns.
This made the refugees burst into tears of gratitude. They all knelt down and kowtowed, and some even hugged each other and cried.
For a moment, the whole scene felt a little sad, making all the Mo Dao soldiers itch with hatred, wishing to cut the soldiers who had done evil into pieces.
After repairing for a while, Meng Tian decided to continue marching.
Because there were many refugees, the march slowed down. When it got dark, they had no choice but to sleep on the streets.
Meng Tian asked people to catch some hares, pheasants and other game to serve as dry food at night.
The first night was uneventful, and early the next morning, everyone started on their way again.
Three days passed just like this, stopping and going.
Meng Tian opened the map at this time and said: "Now we still have three days to travel to the border. Let's find a place nearby to settle this group of refugees."
Wei Hu said: "They can be arranged in Yuanyang City."
"That's fine. You go and talk to them." Meng Tian said.
"promise."
Wei Hu immediately took the order to inform the refugees about the incident. The refugees thanked him happily, making Wei Hu feel embarrassed.
However, when no one was paying attention, the eyes of some of the refugees became very gloomy, with a faint hint of murderous intent.
Because this murderous aura was too weak, no one noticed it.
