That must be reinforcements, Zhang Xiaohua said happily to Dazhuang.
"Listen, it's Dongyue's people outside. They must have come to save us. We are saved!"
But big Zhuang's look was not good-looking. He took Zhang Xiaohua and continued to hide behind her, covering her mouth. His face looked very grim.
"Madame, don't act rashly. I'll give you my coat, and Madame will finish dressing quickly and go with me
"Why on earth is that? Aren't they real reinforcements?"
"Madam, you can have a look at these so-called reinforcements who have slaughtered the remaining soldiers of Dongyue, and think about it carefully. Who are they?"
Finish this sentence, he also does not explain to Zhang Xiaohua, pulling the corner of her dress quietly toward the cave not far away.
I don't know how many people have come, but all of them are enemies. Zhang Xiaohua feels that her feet are empty, and the thunder in her ears creaks, so that she can't hear any sound around her. At present, I just know that I'm exhausted, in order to live and not to be killed.
It's just that she doesn't understand what's going on?
In a desperate situation, her mind's thoughts are basically unable to keep up with them. Her brain is like a plate of paste, and she can't think at all.
There was a smell of blood all over the flaming jungle. The soldiers behind him cried for mercy. However, those reinforcements who spoke the strong Dongyue dialect called for them to stop, but still did not stop the killing. It seemed that the whole mountain top was full of people's screams this night.
The fire blazed in the sky, as if to burn the mountains into ashes.
It can be said that he has found a secret place. Although Da Zhuang is a man, he is obviously afraid of the disaster in front of him. Two people hid in the cave, and then brought a lot of branches to hide Zhang Xiaohua, so they came to her side and blocked the hole with branches and weeds.
He grew up in this army, certainly can detect the clues, Zhang Xiaohua immediately asked him.
"Why do we want to run? Why do they kill us when they are clearly from Dongyue?"
"Because we are what they're going to kill." Dazhuang is not as playful as before. His reply is very strict and his face is serious.
Obviously, he was tired, but his look was as cool as water and as quiet as a mountain.
"I don't understand..."
"I know that the second monk can't feel his head now, so I'll tell you."
"You know?" Zhang Xiaohua lenglengleng asked him, as if there is something in the mind flash, look can not believe the appearance.
"My wife may be thinking that we can safely pass the battle of Huacheng. This trip can be safe and there will be no casualties. But the battlefield is as simple as you think. Even if we can avoid the gentle pursuit, do you know why we still die today?"
"What do you know?"
Dazhuang actually laughed, and then he was quiet, pretending to be relaxed. "Why do I know so much, madam. In fact, I have never thought of going out again since I first entered the barracks. I told you last time that there was no fraud in my family. It was just that I died alone in exchange for my family's life-long well-being. It was a very cost-effective business, and it was worth dying in the battlefield outside. I know. In fact, you understand the meaning of Shunliu's words last night. What he did was to let you thoroughly investigate the matter of grain and grass. As a matter of fact, every one of us is just a locust in this military camp. "
"You can tell me why?"
"Madame, if the imperial court allocates military pay, how much will it have when it reaches the border?"
Although it was a question, he answered in advance, holding out a finger in a somewhat bitter tone. "Ten percent Is it terrible? "
"Seriously, we don't think it's fair. The soldiers of this country give up their lives and forget to die. Every day they live is extremely hard. In the battlefield, life and death are instantaneous, but we can't even eat enough food and clothes. In recent years, the territory is bitter and cold. You don't know that the cold in the border is so cold that you can't imagine. There are not only sand, soil, but also stones in the porridge. The weapons we use are the cheapest copper knives and iron pieces. Even in bows and arrows, some people cut corners. We are very hard, we have lost countless lives, but as soldiers, we did not die on the battlefield. We died of cold and starvation... "
Zhang Xiaohua listens to him so indifferent, big Zhuang continues to say.
"I think my wife has heard of the battle of Liancheng. It is true that Liancheng did not surrender on that day, but did you know that if we had enough capital, how could we surrender? We all know how important food and grass are, but do you know that we In the eyes of the imperial court, it is just the fate of the grasshopper ants. No one will care about the survival of mole ants and others. We will always be the lowest and most helpless people in the chain of national interests. The royal family and even the Emperor today still turn a deaf ear to all this. "
"Has no one looked into it thoroughly?"
"How could it be? Even if there is, it's just beating on the edges. We have raised one shameless gluttonous beast after another with our lives. Sometimes it's hard for me to think of how they take the money from war to have fun... ""Dazhuang..." Zhang Xiaohua looks at him.
"Madam, don't pity me. In fact, I am also bold. In fact, I am a spy."
Dazhuang said with a feeble smile. "Madame, you are a good man. But I had to do it for my family. The people in the prime minister's residence have found me. They want to seek someone who will not be doubted as a traitor. They will cooperate with the prime minister's house and have correspondence with Rouran. "
"You are a great crime to the country. Are you afraid of death?"
"Madam, how can I be afraid of death The people in the prime minister's residence said that if I die, I can protect my family from worries for a hundred years... "
As if the alarm bell was sounded, Zhang Xiaohua understood everything, "so, that Huacheng was slaughtered, you have the credit."
"That's right. The reinforcements who pretended to be Dongyue were sent by the prime minister. He once asked the emperor in your tone of voice to thoroughly investigate the matter of military pay. However, we would rather have known the consequences of this case. They want you to check the military pay, which will involve more people and pull more people into the water. You become a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh. However, before you check, you will be killed by today's people. When the time comes, you can put the blame on Rouran's army. Everything is perfect. It's just that the prime minister has spent so much time, I don't think your identity is simple. Ma'am, I will take on what I do. Just one thing If you don't die today, take that thing back. I hope you don't act rashly. "
