Central Plains·Junting·Xiaoyaohou Mansion
"Hey, brother, wake up and let me discuss something with you."
"Hey, what are you doing? It's still early in the morning and it's still dark. I have to work hard today. Don't bother me."
"Just listen to me. As long as you agree to this, you don't have to die today. You can sleep as long as you want."
Ma Qingfeng narrowed one of her sleepy eyes. When she got up, she did not forget to move lightly so as not to wake up the sleeping little Lingluo.
The man who broke into the room whispered into Ma Qingfeng's ear. Ma Qingfeng listened and thought for a moment: "This... is a serious crime of disobedience... Uh... That's okay, but you have to agree to one condition. .”
"Don't worry, brother, as long as you promise me, I will agree to any conditions, and a gentleman's words are hard to follow!"
"You... can you be considered a gentleman?"
Central Plains·Junting·Pioneer Camp
"Hurry up, hurry up, everyone, be quick with your hands and feet. Today our Colonel Xiu Shan is the new vanguard general. Lord Xiu Chuan will be here soon!"
In the vanguard camp, a group of soldiers and soldiers made a fire and held a banquet, and set up a stage and decorated it. I don't know whether it was to celebrate the promotion of their former captain Xiu Shan, or to show it to the upcoming second realm stars.
"Hey, Daniel, come here. Didn't you say that our Iron General was just captured alive by the Marquis Mansion across the street? His life or death is uncertain. How come we have to replace him with a new general so quickly?"
"Harm, even if General Tie is not dead, he will be a defeated general when he comes back. Besides, if it weren't for Colonel Xiu Shan on that day... Ahem, cough, cough, General Xiu Shan ordered us to retreat, and all of us in the vanguard camp would have died that day. Under the opponent's iron hooves, Her Royal Highness the Princess's imperial army is no joke. Besides, don't you look at our General Xiu Shan's biological brother, what kind of person he is..."
"What are you doing! If you don't work hard, you're chewing the tongue of the trusted general here, you're going to die!"
"Hey, yes, yes, little one, let's go to work."
To say that the soldiers of the vanguard battalion were quick in fighting, they were also quick in setting up banquets. In less than half an hour, these large tables of good wine and food were prepared with all colors, flavors and tastes.
Xiu Shan put on a general's armor. His not-so-strong body looked ridiculous even with such a heavy armor. He stood on the stairs and said to the soldiers of the vanguard battalion:
"With the love of all the officers and men, from now on, although Xiu is a general, he has already shared the blessings and hardships with the brothers in the Pioneer Battalion. Let's all wait for a moment. As soon as Lord Xiuchuan arrives, we can have a banquet."
"Brother, today is your big day for promotion. Why do you need to be so polite to me, my younger brother?"
A black figure appeared behind Xiu Shan at some point, and he was frightened. "Hey, Chuan'er, I'm old now and can't stand your threats. Next time I show up, let's not be so elusive." of."
"Brother, don't talk about old age. Now that you have become a vanguard general, there will be many wars in the future, and you will need to command a battalion of soldiers."
"Yeah, what Chuan'er said is, now that everyone is here, let's have a banquet, brothers, with good wine and good food!"
The aroma of wine wafted through the reeds on the banks of the Weishui River. The overgrown weeds were as thick as a carpet at the feet of the pioneer camp on the bank.
The two soldiers were very drunk and wandered to the river as if they wanted to relieve themselves.
"Hiccup~ Well~ Daniel, look, you can't pee far away from me, hiccup~ Hehe."
"Fart, hiccup~ um~, I peed much farther than you, and it floated all the way to the bamboo raft in front of the urethra."
"What bamboo raft?"
"You're blind. Open your sesame-mung bean-sized eyes and take a closer look. Not only is there a bamboo raft, but there seems to be someone tied to the pole on it. Hey, he looks a bit like General Iron."
"It's broken, it's really General Iron! Fish it out quickly!"
The two men picked up a bamboo pole on the ground and put the bamboo raft on the river ashore. They saw that Tie Lu Han's two prosthetic iron hands had been removed and tied to a pole, but the armor on his body was still tight. Really wrapped.
One of the soldiers named Daniel was about to loosen his bonds, but was stopped by another soldier, "Don't worry, Daniel, you said that just after our General Xiu Shan took over, General Tie appeared here, looking so embarrassed, it must be the guy from the opposite side." The Marquis Mansion sent this to disturb the morale of our army."
"Then how do you deal with it?"
"Hey, let's use the trick. We don't say it floated from the other side. Let's say it was fished out of the water during our patrol. Lord Xiuchuan happened to be here today. In this way, it can be regarded as a great achievement for us."
"Hey, it has to be your monkey spirit!"
After saying that, the two men escorted Tie Luhan into the camp.
"Report! Report to General Xiu Shan, Lord Xiuchuan. While patrolling by the river, I found the unconscious General Tie."
At this moment, Tie Luhan opened one eye slightly, and his bloodshot eyes looked at Xiu Shan, as if staring at the betrayer. Xiu Shan, who was already timid, broke into a cold sweat and couldn't tell the difference for a moment. That's a human being or a ghost.
"Take him away! Quick! Take him away quickly! Stay away from me!"
After hearing this, the two people hurriedly dragged Tie Luhan, who was tied up, to the reeds outside the tent. They also whispered in fear: "Damn it, why did you suddenly wake up!"
"Don't panic, adapt to circumstances."
The group of people walked out of the tent. Xiushan hid behind his younger brother, never daring to look into Tie Luhan's eyes. "Chuan'er, hurry up, hurry up, do me a favor and kill him!"
Xiuchuan thought for a moment, then suddenly turned around and pushed his brother Xiu Shan in front of him, and said coldly: "Brother, you must kill this tough guy today."
"No! No! I don't dare!" How could Xiu Shan listen to his brother's words? Tie Luhan's bloody eyes stared at him with fear all over.
"Brother, all the soldiers in this tent have seen it. Furthermore, Tie Luhan is the guilty general of the vanguard camp's defeat. You, the trusted vanguard general, must personally behead him in order to establish prestige in the army. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll be blamed.”
After saying that, Xiuchuan suddenly blinked his eyes, and a tiny but swift current suddenly flashed in the air. Tie Luhan's eyes, which just a moment ago were staring at Xiu Shan, were instantly poked into blood.
Xiuchuan took the vanguard general's general sword and handed it to his brother Xiu Shan, "Brother, please."
Without those outrageous eyes, Xiu Shan's fear eased a little. He held the general's sword in his hand tremblingly and moved towards Tie Luhan step by step.
Arriving in front of Tie Luhan, Xiu Shan looked at this old friend who had lived together like life and death, drinking and having fun together, with mixed feelings in his heart. Tie Lu Han's eyes were completely lost, but he could only feel that Xiu Shan was approaching.
He opened his mouth to say something, but his throat had lost its voice. From the shape of his mouth, Xiushan still recognized the words "Brother Xiushan".
Xiu Shan suddenly rose up, raised the general's sword, and slashed at Tie Lu Han like crazy. All the soldiers were shocked by this situation.
Captain Xiu Shan, who had always been kind and gentle, turned out to be so violent and terrifying.
The familiar smell of blood overshadowed the mellow aroma of the wine and reached everyone's nostrils. Among them, I wonder if Xiuchuan's nose had an illusion, and there was a smell of saltpeter and sulfur.
After taking a closer look at the front, there was a bit of powdery substance spilled out of the iron armor that was bruised and bloody by Xiu Shan.
Xiuchuan was startled, pulled a soldier next to him, and asked hurriedly: "When did the two soldiers who escorted Tie Luhan just now go on patrol?"
The little soldier panicked and replied: "Little... I don't know, he...the two of them, they are not Daniel and Agou. They are not patrollers at all."
The words sounded like a thunderbolt in the clear sky in Xiuchuan's ears. He hurriedly shouted to Xiushan, wanting him to leave Tie Luhan's body quickly, but before the words could be spoken, a heat wave accompanied by a sound A loud noise came.
"boom!"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The impact of the explosion overturned the tents in the camp, and raging fire surged up along with the spirits and piles of weeds on the ground. Many slow-moving soldiers were swallowed up by the sea of fire.
"Brother! Big..."
Just as Xiuchuan was about to look for his elder brother, he saw the remaining half of Xiushan's face covered in flames on top of a mutilated body in the fire not far away.
The fire was still getting bigger. The pioneer battalion was stationed on the bank of the Weishui River. The overgrown weeds were the fuel for the fire. The flames blocked the way into the Weishui River. All the soldiers had to flee backwards. share.
At this time, fireworks suddenly rose on the other side of the Weishui River. They were not the kind of flying monkeys used to convey Dharma signals in the military, but the brilliant sparks that ordinary people set off during festivals, as if to celebrate the changes in the Pioneer Camp.
At this situation, Xiuchuan felt sorrow and anger in his heart. He kicked his legs suddenly and wrapped his inner strength around his whole body. With the strength of his second-level stars, he passed straight through the raging fire and stepped on the water of the Weishui River. Speeding towards the other side.
"Soldiers, don't panic! Our vanguard battalion always adapts to changes on the battlefield. We all find the available horses and ride on bamboo rafts from the north bank to support Lord Xiuchuan!"
The more than a hundred soldiers in this vanguard battalion were all well-trained elite soldiers. Even if such changes occurred, it still took less than a moment to form a cavalry and set off towards the north bank of the Weishui River.
Central Plains, Junting, Northwest Bank of the Weishui River
"Huh~ I'm exhausted. Why are there so many bamboo rafts here? My hands are sore from taking them apart. Shark, how are you doing over there?"
"I've finished dismantling it a long time ago. Your arms, which are as thin as bamboo poles, should be exercised more. Now you can train your legs for running. By the way, where is that man named Ma Qingfeng? I haven't seen him since he came here for a long time. he."
In the middle of his words, Shark suddenly paused and said, "Xiang Fei, do you smell anything?"
"It smells like it's burning. There was a loud noise from the south just now. I guess hot pot is already burning at the Pioneer Camp."
"No, no, no." Shark frowned and said, "It's a very annoying yet familiar smell."
"Shark~~! Shark baby~~! I'm here to accompany you, your great official!"
Xiang Fei and Sha Sha ran away after hearing the sound, and exclaimed in unison: "Tai Bai?!"
