But now is not the time to be sad. Wang Lun immediately calmed down and introduced Wang Yin, Xiao Wu, Xiao Hu, Ping'er, Shi Jin, Lu Junyi, Shi Wengong, Chai Jin and others to the Peng brothers. At the same time, he also wanted to Let’s ask more about the reason why the elder brother died and how the Peng brothers came here.
Before Wang Lun could ask questions, he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly: "Which one is Wang Lun? Where is Wang Lun? Do you still remember senior brother?"
Wang Lun looked for a voice, but saw that the person shouting was the purple-faced officer who led the Jiangning garrison to the rescue, followed closely by the white-faced officer, the young officer who stabbed Fang Tianding, and several generals.
"Bo Ren, do you still remember the second senior brother?" The purple-faced officer strode up to Wang Lun, looked straight at Wang Lun, and took off his helmet as he spoke. The white-faced officer and the young officer also looked at Wang Lun. The helmet came off.
"Second Senior Brother Tian Hu?" Wang Lun looked up at the purple-faced officer in front of him, but he recognized who it was at a glance. Wang Lun's voice was trembling, and he turned to the white-faced officer and said, "Second Senior Brother Liang Xing?"
When the purple-faced officer and the white-faced officer saw that Wang Lun recognized them, their eyes immediately turned red. They stepped forward together and took Wang Lun's hand. The purple-faced officer Tian Hu was speechless, and the white-faced officer Liang Xingze He said in a trembling voice: "The sky has eyes, so that our brothers and sisters can still meet one day."
But the young officer squeezed in front of Wang Lun and said with a smile: "Brother, do you still recognize me?"
Wang Lun looked carefully at this young officer who was several years younger than himself. He saw that this young officer was tall and tall, handsome and upright. He had a vermilion birthmark from the middle of his forehead to the center of his eyebrows. This birthmark was very strange. , actually looks like human eyes, standing between the eyebrows and the forehead.
When Wang Lun saw the birthmark, he immediately recognized that the young officer in front of him was his junior brother, his father's youngest disciple. Because the birthmark between his eyebrows resembled a human eye, he was given the nickname Xiaoerlang.
Today, not only did he meet the senior brother's sons, but he also reunited with his second senior brother Tian Hu, third senior brother Liang Xing, and junior brother Zhao Yun after the disaster. Wang Lun was extremely excited. He grabbed Zhao Yun's shoulders and said tremblingly: " Zihu, are you alive too?"
"Alive." Zhao Yun nodded heavily.
Wang Lun quickly called Wang Yin and Xiao Wu to his side to meet Tian Hu and the others.
It has been sixteen years since everyone was separated on the day of the disaster in Dawangzhuang. Back then, brothers Wang Lun and Wang Yinji and Tian Hu and other senior brothers grew up together since childhood. They studied together and got along very well. , the relationship between the brothers is very deep. After all these years, they just met today, and the senior brothers and sisters were extremely excited.
Xiao Wu was only two years old back then, and had no memory of these senior brothers at this time. But today she saw three more senior brothers, and she couldn't help but find it very interesting. But what made Xiao Wu the most happy was that she actually She has five nephews who are several years older than herself.
Xiao Wu had already forced the five brothers of the Peng family to call him uncle just now. Although Xiao Wu was young, a few years younger than the youngest Peng Wu, the five brothers all respected their teachers and respected their principles. Wu thought he was his master uncle, and he didn't feel it was strange at all. He saluted Xiao Wu respectfully and called him his master uncle.
Xiao Wu immediately felt satisfied, but since he was already a senior uncle, he naturally had to give some advice and lectures to his junior nephews. Xiao Wu was not ashamed of his words and lectured the five Peng family brothers one by one. The five Peng family brothers all had a respectful attitude. He lowered his hands and obeyed his orders, and said yes. Xiao Wu felt even more satisfied and felt that he was a teachable child.
The three brothers Tian Hu, Liang Xing, and Zhao Yun were very moved when they saw that Xiao Wu had grown from a two-year-old child into a tall and graceful girl.
Tian Hu curled his lips and said with a big smile: "I can't believe that Xiao Wu has grown into a big girl. I even hugged you when you were a child."
Zhao Yun also said from the side: "Yes, yes, yes, I hugged you too."
Liang Xing looked at the two of them but said nothing.
Xiao Wu glanced sideways at Zhao Yun and suddenly said: "What, do you still want to hug me now?"
Zhao Yun immediately blushed and was speechless in embarrassment, but Tian Hu and Liang Xing burst into laughter.
"Why are you laughing? You are the only one." Xiao Wu glared at Tian Hu, who immediately shut up and turned around to count the clouds in the sky.
"Xiao Wu!" Wang Lun saw that Xiao Wu was too young, so he immediately shouted: "Don't be rude to senior brother."
Xiao Wu rolled his eyes and went to teach several apprentice nephews of the Peng family. Wang Lun shook his head helplessly, and there was nothing he could do about Xiao Wu.
Zhou Tong, on the other hand, smiled and said, "Don't blame me, you three. This female disciple of mine has been spoiled by me since she was a child. She is very willful. I will teach her a lesson when I get back."
What kind of status does Zhou Tong have, and now he personally comes forward to speak for Xiao Wu? Seeing this, Tian Hu and the other three people immediately bowed and saluted, saying repeatedly: "Don't dare, don't dare."
In fact, how could Tian Hu and the other three blame Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu is his master's daughter. It's too late to protect him, so how could he be angry with her? Liang Xing said: "Xiao Wu is the disciple of senior, and also ours." Little junior sister, little junior sister is innocent, straightforward, and most frank, just like a piece of jade. We can't even care enough for her, so how can we be angry with her.
We, our seniors, have been studying at our school since we were young. We have been greatly favored by our school, and we will naturally be close to our brothers and sisters. I will not wait for my talent, and I will do my best to help my little junior sisters when I travel around the world in the future. Please rest assured, seniors. . "
Tian Hu nodded in agreement, but Zhao Yun blushed and scratched his head. Zhou Tong nodded and smiled, very satisfied with Liang Xing's words.
Wang Lun then introduced Lu Junyi, Shi Wengong, Chai Jin, Shi Jin, Zhu Wu, Xiao Hu and others to Tian Hu. Tian Hu also introduced the generals who came with him, all of whom were Tian Hu and Liang. Xing's brothers, Tian Biao, Tian Bao, Liang Yi, Liang Ying and others.
Wang Lun then asked Tian Hu and others about their situation after the disaster at Dawangzhuang, how they arrived at Zhuge Mansion with their teacher today, and how they became an official of the Song Dynasty.
"What do I think of you as an official of the Song Dynasty!" Tian Hu laughed loudly, but then said to Liang Xing: "Liangzi, you are so sharp-tongued, it's up to you to speak."
Liang Xing did not refuse, and told Wang Lun and others the reason. It turned out that sixteen years ago, the Liao Kingdom suddenly suffered a severe drought that would only occur once in a century. The disaster was diverted to the south, and troops were sent to plunder the border of the Song Dynasty. As a result, Dawangzhuang was in trouble. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was ransacked by Liao soldiers. Thousands of people in the village were not alive, and not a single one was left alive.
Wang Kuoda, the owner of Dawangzhuang, in order to protect the village's young and old, led his disciples and villagers to resist desperately. However, the Liao Dynasty went south to plunder, and all the troops sent by the Liao army were elite Liao troops, who were well planned and well prepared.
However, Dawangzhuang did not receive any information before the disaster occurred, so there was no preparation at all. In addition, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and everyone in the village, old and young, was celebrating the festival. Every family was having a banquet, and every household was defenseless.
Although everyone in Dawangzhuang from Wang Kuoda, the owner of Dawangzhuang, is a martial arts talent and a hero in the world, everyone was drunk on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. When the Liao soldiers came to the village to plunder and kill, there were not many people left who could fight. .
Although Wang Kuoda led his troops to fight bravely and resisted to the death, they could not withstand the overwhelming force of the Liao army. In the end, more than 3,000 people in the village, including members of the Wang family and ordinary people and merchants in the village, were slaughtered. Xiaowu's brother and sister were among the few who had the chance to escape with their lives.
At that time, in order to protect the young and old in the village from breaking out from the back of the village, Peng Ying, the senior brother, led a group of junior brothers, and followed his master Wang Kuoda to form a formation in front of the village to resist the enemy. In a fierce battle overnight, all the junior brothers and the villagers guarding the courtyard died in the battle. Countless, until the end of the battle, Wang Kuoda ordered Peng Ying and Tian Hu to lead their junior disciples to break out of the encirclement, while he wanted to stay and fight for his disciples.
How could Peng Ying, Tian Hu and others be willing to leave their master alone to cut off the rear and escape by themselves, so they all vowed to fight with their master to the end. How could Wang Kuoda not know the feelings of his disciples, but the disciples were still young, how could he bear to let them all After he died, Wang Kuoda urged him several times, but none of his disciples were willing to leave.
In the end, Wang Kuoda had to say that Wang Lun, Xiao Wu and several other juniors had broken out of the siege with his master Yao Xiuqing, but he did not know if there were still Liao soldiers outside the village, so he asked Peng Ying and Tian Hu to lead a group of juniors to quickly find and protect the juniors. Ying and Tian Hu then kowtowed to say goodbye to their master and led their brothers to break out.
Peng Ying led all the brothers to break out of the siege. When they broke out of the village, all the brothers around him were dead and wounded. Only the second brother Tian Hu, the third brother Liang Xing and the youngest brother Zhao Yun were left, and all of them were injured. , Peng Ying was seriously injured trying to save Zhao Yun.
Peng Ying and four other people rushed outside the village, simply bandaged their wounds, and then looked around for the whereabouts of Wang Lun and others. However, there were Liao soldiers everywhere outside the village, and the brothers hid themselves and searched for three whole days. , and no trace of Wang Lun and others was found.
However, during these three days, Peng Ying and others also heard that Liao soldiers were everywhere on the entire Hebei border of the Song Dynasty. Countless villages, towns and villages were looted by Liao soldiers. People fled in all directions and were captured. The corpses of the people of the Song Dynasty killed by the Liao soldiers were all over the mountains and wild areas.
Peng Ying and others were so angry that their eyes were split open, and they wished they could kill all these Liao soldiers immediately to avenge the people of the Song Dynasty. But now several of them were injured and could not fight anymore, so they had to look for opportunities to capture a few The Liao soldiers who were left alone were killed to express their hatred.
Peng Ying and others searched for Wang Lun and others for three days but disappeared. There were more and more Liao soldiers, and they were searching everywhere for the people of the Song Dynasty, but the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty never came to rescue.
Peng Ying and others had no place to hide, and Peng Ying's injuries were getting more serious. At this time, he could no longer walk. Tian Hu and others had to make a stretcher out of tree branches to carry him. If he could not get medical treatment, his life would be in danger.
At this time, they could no longer stay near Dawangzhuang. Peng Ying and the four had no choice but to discuss their next move. However, looking at the current situation, most of the territory of Hebei in the Song Dynasty had fallen into the hands of the Liao people. Hebei could no longer wait, and only Go elsewhere.
