- Batu's army outside the pass has captured Haocheng, and the entire northern part of the Great Xi Dynasty has fallen. According to historical records, the Ming Dynasty of the Daxi Dynasty rebelled and overthrew the previous dynasty to establish the Daxi Dynasty. Until now, more than half of the territory has been lost like now.
Batu¡¯s army seemed to have been prepared for a long time. From the beginning of the invasion, it broke through the bamboos with lightning speed and was not sloppy. In more than ten days, the war had reached the foot of the imperial city. Haocheng, the last line of defense of the imperial city, captured Haocheng and the imperial city was exposed in front of Batu's army.
Therefore, Haocheng must not be broken, this is something everyone knows. All the troops rushed to Haocheng, and a big battle was inevitable.
The wind blew through the empty streets. The prosperity of the past had disappeared due to the war. The windows and doors on both sides were closed, lanterns swayed in the wind, and only a few groups of cavalry galloped by from time to time.
At this time, a small team trotted over. This was a small team that had just entered Haocheng. Just like other millions of troops, the troops from the rear were quickly moving in.
In a square, several teams have arrived, some large and some small, ranging from a thousand people to dozens of people.
The leader of the team was a centurion. He led the team to Haocheng to report. He was accepted by a white-bearded captain. The centurion who led the team stepped forward and saluted: "The fourth team of the Second Column Brigade of the Iron Banner Army is here to report!"
The captain nodded and checked the number of people. This was a small team, including young and old. It could only be regarded as a second-rate team.
The captain was pressed for time, and he had many other teams to arrange. Walking among the hundreds of people, he looked at the stronger ones. One by one, they said: "You, you, you, you, and you, you!"
After ordering the people, he came to the front of the team and said in a loud voice: "The people you just called, stand here, and the others go to the other side!"
Immediately the team was divided into two, the stronger ones stood on one side, the old, weak and young stood on the other side, and Fu Xiaowa happened to be short. He looks childish. Being listed on the side of the old, weak and young.
The captain nodded at the group of young and old on Fu Xiaowa's side and said, "You go to the stables to report, the rest of you follow me!"
Hearing that it was a stable, Fu Xiaowa felt a little helpless, but. No matter what it is. Also do your part for this war.
And the stronger group heard it. It was more of a lament, but those who were assigned to the stables felt lucky. At least now there is no need to go up and die immediately.
Leaving the noisy square, Fu Xiaowa and his team of dozens of people came to the horse farm in the north of Haocheng. This place was full of war horses from the Daxi Dynasty army, and they were not the only horse breeders. Tens of thousands of war horses required thousands of people. People maintain it, they are just a small part that is added.
In this horse farm, a small living area is formed. The air is filled with the smell of horse manure. Fu Xiaowa is waiting in the queue under the hot sun.
At this time, a horse steward arrived. He looked tall and mighty. He should be the largest official here. He was in charge of thousands of people and the horses of the entire army.
The horse steward raised his whip and shouted: "You are here for no other reason than that you are no longer suitable for the battlefield. Your youth and your blood have been lost in the long years. That is something we cannot choose." and the fact of escaping, but I believe that you still have a heart to serve the country. No matter what position you are in, wherever you are, you will contribute to this endless war. If there is no one to feed the horse, there will be no one to rush to the first place. Cavalry on the line, so you are all the heroes behind the scenes. Although your names will not be known now or in the future, the wonderful pen and ink in the almanac were created by unknown people like us. Here, you are all Are you ready?"
"Ready!" There was a sparse voice below, but Fu Xiaowa's voice was particularly loud and passionate.
"Very good. Each person's task is to feed fifty horses. There is plenty of fodder and barley. This shouldn't be a difficult task!"
After the training, everyone claimed their own feeding tasks. Each person fed fifty war horses, just putting out feed, which was a very easy job.
Fu Xiaowa took a look at the stables. The horses of the Great Xi Dynasty were all very strong, but they were still not as good as the horses outside the pass. The horses outside the pass were the best in the world and could not be compared to any other horse. Fifty horses, no more, no less, this is his task, no matter what he does, he will do it best.
The vast racecourse is so small in this corner, not to mention that Fu Xiaowa is even smaller in this larger war.
The night is getting dark, leaving only a mist of clouds on the horizon. The vast city in the war has its noise and desolation. After feeding the fodder, Fu Xiaowa lay quietly on the haystack, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, reflecting on the recent days.
He thought a lot, starting from aFrom the village to the imperial city, there were many bumps and twists along the way. He also missed many people, those old acquaintances in Qingniu Town, and the friends he had just met at Tiandu College. There was also a vague figure that kept lingering in his mind. He didn't know what Xian'er was doing now. Maybe she was busy with her wedding or busy with the war.
He doesn¡¯t know why, but Xian¡¯er¡¯s figure often appears. Maybe Xian¡¯er is the friend he has the most contact with, or maybe it¡¯s because Xian¡¯er has always taken care of him. Overall, Xian'er is a good girl. He sincerely hopes that Xian'er can be happy.
The night was quiet, with only the sounds of grasshoppers and the snorting of horses from time to time.
Suddenly, someone shouted from the other side of the racecourse: "No, it's on fire, it's on fire!"
Fu Xiaowa spat out a piece of grass and immediately jumped down from the haystack. He saw flames rising into the sky in the direction of the sound. He immediately ran away and got mixed up with the crowd fighting the fire.
Countless people were running and shouting, and there was chaos in the dark night, with torches swaying everywhere.
Fu Xiaowa groped his way to the scene of the incident in the dark night. He saw a stable with flames rising into the sky. The hay around it had been ignited. In addition, the stable was also covered with thatch, and the fire was out of control.
The fire was so bright that people could feel the heat even ten feet away. People around were carrying buckets, but they didn't dare to step forward. Because the fire was really too big.
However, in the stables, there were still several war horses neighing and raising their hooves, struggling but being tied to the pillars by their reins.
People around him wanted to come forward but did not dare to. They were holding buckets and looking forward to the flames several feet high burning on the roof.
At this time, the horse steward pushed through the crowd and came in, sternly saying: "What's going on?"
"Report, report to your lord. It is reported that there are spies who have sneaked into the city. They are waiting for an opportunity to burn down our army's food and grass. The fires in several other places have been extinguished because they were discovered early, but this place is really. It is too big. No one can get close!" A soldier Trembling.
"Son of a bitch. He used such despicable methods!" After scolding him, the horse officer looked at the majestic flames. The heat was so overwhelming that it was impossible to get close. But he saw that several horses in the stable seemed to have no way of surviving.
Everyone could only watch helplessly as the fire burned down from the roof. The pillars of the stable were already crumbling and about to fall. Several horses were about to be burned alive.
No one dared to go up, and no one could go up, seeing several horses being swallowed up by the fire.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out and rushed towards the Xiongxiong fire. Everyone who saw it couldn't help but exclaimed. It was obvious that he was going to die.
But I saw the figure rushing into the fire scene, kicking several pillars that tied the horses, and immediately several horses ran out screaming. At the moment the horses ran out, there was a roar, and the entire stable collapsed, causing the people watching on the side to collapse. I felt cold in my heart, that man must be hopeless.
An even more shocking scene appeared. It was that the person was indeed buried alive under the burning stable, but a burning pillar was lifted up. The person was like a ghost in the fire, holding the burning pillar on his body. He threw it aside and ran out of the fire like a man on fire, making people wonder if it was still a human being.
¡°Quick, throw water to save people!¡± the horse steward reminded the stunned crowd nearby.
Seeing the burning man rushing over, several large buckets of water were poured on him. The man fell in front of everyone's feet, already burned like a pitch-black log.
Several people scrambled to drag him away from the fire area. Everyone surrounded the man, like a newborn puppy. It was estimated that he would not live long.
Who would have thought that at this time, someone would risk their lives to save a few horses, which were just a few livestock. The horse steward lamented that deeds like this can be used as examples in the military and widely publicized. The loyal horse feeders who sacrificed themselves to save the horses from fire can be used as models of commendation.
"Ahem!" When everyone felt sorry, they saw the dark face coughing out a few mouthfuls of ash and actually squirming and sitting up, which scared everyone.
"Damn it, whoever splashed water on me made my clothes soaked!" The black wooden stick actually complained.
¡°How is it possible, it¡¯s okay to be burned like this? It¡¯s really unbelievable!!¡± A groom next to him shouted out the thoughts of everyone.
The black wooden stick jumped up, danced its arms and legs, and patted its body. The clothes on its body had been burnt to ashes and turned into pieces and fell to the ground.
¡°Don¡¯t stand there stupidly, someone can lend me some pants to put on!¡± Fu Xiaowa shouted, covering his vagina.
At this time, someone hurriedly handed a pair of trousers from behind, making Fu Xiaowa look roomy and funny in them.
"Little brother, why do you risk your life to save a few animals?"Looking at this young man, I felt very strange.
"Seeing them burning to death reminded me of the pain they would feel if the fire burned me. That's how they would feel inside. I couldn't bear to watch them slowly suffering to death like this!"
"Then you will be burned to death yourself. It's a miracle that you haven't been burned to death now!" Nama said.
"It's okay, okay, it didn't burn me to death, I'm still alive!" Fu Xiaowa grinned, and the teeth exposed on his dark face looked particularly white.
(I owe half a chapter, as usual!)
