The soil and water support each person. Shandong people, regardless of gender, are tall and tall. Since ancient times, there has been a saying of "Shandong Dahan". Looking at the vast land of China, we have never heard of Sichuan Dahan, Jiangsu Dahan, Shanxi Dahan, etc. of.
As for the Han Dynasty in the Northeast, it is also said by later generations and did not exist in the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the Northeast generally refers to the Han Dynasty, and does not refer to Shandong by name.
In a word, Shandong people are big, but such a big horse thief, the second master, was kicked to death by the young eunuch. No wonder Qin Fugui and the other horse thieves were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped, not to mention that the second master was still a practicing master. Woolen cloth.
"I, what's wrong with me? Where is the little eunuch? Ah, where are my teeth..." The second head of the house, Youyou, woke up and felt that her mouth hurt a little. When she touched her hands, they were covered with blood and she felt a bit of cold wind when she spoke. A big fang was also kicked out by Chang Yu.
Hey, Qin Fugui was both angry and funny, "In the past, you hated people calling you Dabanya. Now that you're better, I'm sure no one will call you Dabanya anymore."
"My name is Huo Yazi" The third child laughed loudly, and all the horse thieves burst into laughter. The second child yelled angrily, and of course he was cursing the little eunuch.
"After guarding for a few days, I thought I had pinched a soft persimmon, but who knew that it still had thorns and cost Hong Laoliu his life in vain?" Qin Fugui sat by the woods and sighed.
"Then why did you let the eunuch pass?" The second child was furious.
Qin Fugui glanced at him: "We are still people of the Ming Dynasty after all, right? If we normally wouldn't let him go, now that the Tatars are entering the border and they are desperately trying to warn us... we can't really have no conscience at all, right?"
The horse thieves nodded.
"And I took a closer look and found that none of the eunuchs were good at anything. Their momentum and murderous intent were definitely not that of ordinary officers and soldiers. To be honest, I had no idea if a fight would break out." Qin Fugui frowned.
"We have more than 200 people and we can't defeat dozens of them?" The second child refused to accept it, and many people did not accept it.
But Qin Fugui nodded vigorously: "It's hard to say! Anyway, it feels like it's a serious fight. Come on, let's not talk about it after this matter. Let's discuss where to go. The Tatars kill people without blinking an eye, and we will not be immune when the army comes." .
"There's no business in the east by the sea. It's better to go to the west and find a hilltop to plunge into. The Tatars will find us wherever they want. Besides, it's not a long-term solution for us to wander around every day. We have to find a place to stay and camp." Lao San He sighed and said, it turned out that this was actually a bandit.
"You think the mountains are just fine. If you can't find a suitable hilltop, barren mountains and wild ridges will starve to death, and the good places will be occupied by other people. The good guys in the mountains in the past were not so hospitable. Maybe they will be occupied by others." Swallowed it." The two old men were quite clever.
"Now is not the time to set up camp and be careful of being swallowed. It is more important to escape." Qin Fugui sighed: "Let's go into the mountain first and save our lives later."
"Boss, haven't you ever thought that the eunuch is lying to us?" The second master always couldn't trust the young eunuch. Qin Fugui was startled: "No, it feels like he is quite honest and doesn't seem like a liar."
"Oh, can't you tell if it's true or not by asking someone to find out?" The third child disagreed: "I also think that the little eunuch doesn't look like a liar."
However, the second son was still doubtful, so Qin Fugui followed the third son and sent people to go to the north to explore the wind. He also ordered the horse thieves to get some food and rest, and then evacuated to the west later in the evening.
The night was getting darker, and when the horse thieves had eaten and drank enough and were about to get ready to go, the spies reported: The goods are coming from the north!
It's officers and soldiers!
"Are you sure they're not Tatar soldiers?" Qin Fugui's face no longer looked so good. The little eunuch clearly said that there were tens of thousands of Tatar soldiers behind him, but his men found out that there were actually only a few hundred officers and soldiers.
"Boss, they must be officers and soldiers." His subordinates were very sure.
Damn, this dog eunuch, Qin Fugui is angry, the three tigers of Mount Tai are going to go crazy, fuck him and eat these officers and soldiers.
The reputation of cowardice among officers and soldiers in the late Ming Dynasty was well known all over the world. They ran away when they heard the Qing army and surrendered when they saw the rebels. Even half of the bandits and horse thieves dared to rob them. Moreover, these officers and soldiers almost didn't resist before they turned into bandits. After all, it was really hard to be a soldier these days. There is no benefit at all. Not only do you owe wages, but you have to eat and drink, you have to work hard and fight, and people die in the war. How can you be a thief?
"How many troops does the opponent have?" Qin Fugui decided to take action.
"I didn't dare to get too close, but judging from the torch, the maximum is two or three hundred," his subordinate said. Qin Fugui sneered, "Two or three hundred, swallow it in one gulp!"
"Lao Jiu, I feel like my balls are all worn out." Lao Jia frowned and said to Lao Jiu who was walking slowly side by side. Lao Jiu suddenly became happy and said, "Wait until you find a girl in Qingzhou Mansion to rub it for you and it won't hurt anymore."
"How do you rub it..." The two of them winked and looked vulgar, and the soldiers from the two battalions behind them burst into laughter: "Boss, let's find a girl to rub him in Qingzhou Mansion."
"Everyone is included." Lao Jia waved his hand, and bursts of cheers came from behind him. What do you want to do as a soldier? In fact, there is not much difference between a horse thief and a fair-weather woman. Other than that, she has an extra sense of responsibility and honor.
The two battalions covered Chang Yu, who first dragged Kang Kale's uncle and nephew for a whole morning and then slipped away. Kang Kale was furious and led his troops to pursue them. The two guards ran as hard as they could. When they were tired, they walked slowly, and then ran again after regaining some strength. However, the Qing army did not catch up, and they were always twenty or thirty miles away.
"The dog Tatars have been chasing us all afternoon. I guess we are tired now and are looking for a place to rest. Is it time for us to take a rest?" Lao Jiu asked Jia Wai Xiong after the fun.
Jia Waixiong turned his head and looked behind him. As night fell, the sky was full of stars and it was pitch black in the distance with no fire. He felt a little relieved and said, "Let's take a rest." Then he looked forward again. Not far away, he saw a pitch black patch of woods.
"Don't enter the woods when you're there." Lao Jiu glanced at him and chuckled. Jia Waixiong rolled his eyes: "Why do I go to the woods at night? There are no girls in there, and I don't want to enjoy the cool air during the day."
Everyone laughed loudly, and suddenly heard the sound of bells piercing the sky. They were startled when they saw torches a hundred meters away on the east and west wings, and there seemed to be many people and horses.
Damn it, thieves! The two of them were shocked but they were both knowledgeable and knew they had encountered horse bandits.
Just when the two of them were surprised, Qin Fugui and his entourage rushed up to them, waving their weapons and shouting: "I won't give you any nonsense. You can choose three paths for yourself. One is to join my gang and drink hot food, and the other is to leave the war horses and weapons." Go away, I'll take it for you, tell me, which one do you choose?"
"Are you going to kill us?" Jia Wai Xiong looked at He Lao Jiu with a puzzled look on his face: "You heard that right?"
"You heard that right." Lao Jiu looked around and said, "They want to fuck us."
"Then...are you going to let me do it?" Jia Waixiong asked again.
"It's up to you to do whatever you want. We're on someone's territory. If they want to do it, let's just take off our pants." Lao Jiu sneered, so without any warning, without even saying a word to the horse thieves, the two battalions directly drew their swords. Start fighting.
The two most proficient battalions under Dongchang's command have never seen such a big scene as the bloodshed following the little eunuch. Five or six hundred people can't defeat two thousand Qing army cavalry, but it is really easy for them to torture two hundred horse bandits, even if they are exhausted. occasion.
So damn ungrateful! As the old saying goes, a fight will start if there is a disagreement. Qin Fugui never expected that these officers and soldiers would directly attack without even saying a word!
How did he know that his opponents were the two guys with the most explosive tempers under Dongchang's command? What they said just now had already ignited their anger. They didn't want to talk nonsense to you. They just started to fight until you called you daddy.
Within a quarter of an hour, or at most a quarter of an hour, the horse bandits fled and dispersed. Qin Fugui, the three masters, knelt in a row and held their heads in their hands: "Master, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
"Are you kidding?" Lao Jiu kicked Hua Yazi to the ground: "Why doesn't it look like it? Didn't you just let me choose between the three items? Now I also want you to choose. Do you want to be hacked to death with a knife or use an arrow? Shoot him to death, or..." He said and waved a torch in front of Qin Fugui's face: "Burn him to death."
Qin Fugui was startled: "Master, we are really joking. Just after dark, we met someone who claimed to be the governor of the East Factory. He said that there was a military commander coming from behind, so he asked me to wait in case he got lost. Here we are pointing the way. We just made a joke on a whim to scare the military master, but the military master took it seriously..."
I have to say that Qin Fugui is pretty good at making up stuff, but Jia Waixiong and Lao Jiu naturally wouldn't believe him, but they were immediately shocked when they heard the news about the little eunuch: "Have you met the factory supervisor?"
"That's right, it was the factory supervisor who asked us to wait for you." Qin Fugui kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic.
"When did the factory owner pass by here?" Jia Waixiong asked.
"It was almost an hour ago when it got dark."
"Come on, grandpa is in a good mood today so he won't kill you and so on. Don't do evil in the future. Don't think you've deceived me. It's just to see the factory boss letting you and me go," Lao Jiu said, glaring at the three of them.
In his opinion, since the young eunuch had spared these people, the crime must not have led to death, not to mention that after killing the leader, the rest of the insects were leaderless and committed evil.
He never thought that the little eunuch didn't want to kill, but that he was too willing to kill.
The three tigers of Taishan escaped by chance. Jia Waixiong and Lao Jiu were eager to chase the young eunuch and retreat south, but they were too lazy to pay attention to these bad guys.
But Sanhu was so frightened that he peed and collapsed on the ground for a long time without regaining consciousness. Until his men saw the officers and soldiers leaving and slowly came back together. Seeing the three leaders' faces pale, they shook their heads a few times: "Boss, the officers and soldiers are leaving." ”.
"Who said that there are only two or three hundred officers and soldiers? Who said that the officers and soldiers are tired and lax..." The second master jumped up from the ground in a rage, grabbed one of his subordinates and beat him with his fists no matter who it was.
Qin Fugui took a few long breaths and said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, fortunately, I feel that the little eunuch is not a good person. Fortunately, he was let go before, otherwise our heads would have been moved by now!"
Besides, Jia Waixiong and Lao Jiu hurried on their way to catch up with Chang Yu, although they knew it was impossible, but they did not dare to delay too much because of the pursuit of soldiers. Unexpectedly, they had not traveled ten miles, and the rear army reported that there were pursuers. It might be possible. It's the horse bandits.
"Damn, I shouldn't have left them alive. Now I'm bitten." Jia Waixiong's face darkened, and Lao Jiu ordered to prepare for war with fire in his eyes.
"Master, Master, I have misunderstood, I have misunderstood." The officers and soldiers were ready to attack. The horse bandits chasing after them were indeed the horse bandits, but they were not here for revenge and trouble. Qin Fugui said with a smile: "Master, Commander" , we must surrender, we must serve the imperial court!"
ah? Jia Waixiong and Lao Jiu suddenly looked confused. They looked at each other and then yelled at Qin Fugui and others: "Go away, I don't have time to play with you."
"No kidding, we are really surrendering. The military master is walking in front. How about we give you the rear? I heard the factory director said that there is an army of Tatars behind him, but it is true..."
"How can you stop the Tatars?" Lao Jiu looked disdainful, and Qin Fugui immediately straightened his face: "The Tatars have no humanity and have invaded our Ming Dynasty. They looted, killed, and set fire. They are simply inferior to us! And they have caused harm to our Shandong Province several times. , Shandong people and dog Tatars are incompatible with each other."
"Yes, we are not at odds with each other," the horse bandits shouted.
Lao Jiu glanced at Jia Waixiong and said helplessly: "What to do?"
"Do you have anything to eat or drink? Let's get some for you guys first. The military rations are out." Jia Waixiong sighed. What he said meant that he accepted the horse bandits for the time being. As for the follow-up, he would wait until he met the young eunuch before making a decision.
Qin Fugui looked bitter: "We have also broken up, and we are just trying to ask the military master for stuttering..."
"roll"! In the dark night, Jia Waixiong's angry shout could be heard for miles.
