Chapter 407: Get used to it
But no matter how quarrels, this matter has come true and they can't change it!
What Zhu Hongyu and Zheng Chenggong decided together cannot be changed by saying that it can be changed!
Needless to say, Zheng Chenggong's prestige in the Zheng army!
As the Ming army's mainland strategy unfolded, the successive victories also accumulated unparalleled prestige for Zhu Hongyu.
Few people dare to express different opinions on what he decided!
...
Wangjiapuzi Village is an ordinary village in Jiangnan.
Small bridges, flowing water, yellow cows and shepherds, typical scenery of Jiangnan water towns!
It was preserved in the wars that lasted for more than ten years. Even if the village was forcibly conquered by the two sides of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, a large number of strong men in the Qing Dynasty were forcibly conquered. This village was lucky.
At least they are not extinct, right?
Under the big willow tree in the village’s glutinous field, the people of Wangjiapuzi Village were surrounded by a white cloth on their heads, showing sad faces.
A group of people gathered together, and there were two bodies covered with white cloth in the middle of the crowd.
Blood was oozing out from under the white cloth, and blood spots were stained on the white cloth.
It looks quite eye-catching!
The two corpses belong to a young couple.
The young couple got married last year. Before the New Year, their wife had just been diagnosed with a three-month happy pulse by the doctor.
Last night, several rioters entered the village and were about to grab some money.
The goal is this young couple!
Several soldiers broke into the door and then searched for something through the cabinet.
Money, jewelry, cloth, ironware...
All valuable items that can be seen are taken into your pocket.
At the beginning, the young couple did not resist.
Now is the chaotic era in the late Ming Dynasty. Which imperial court has ever fought against the army and didn’t steal something?
They want to grab it if they want to grab it. It’s nothing to lose some money, just keep your life.
However, during the robbery, a soldier fell in love with his pregnant wife.
I am going to learn from Boss Cao, and I want to change the robbery of wealth into robbery!
This is unbearable!
As a result, the young couple began to resist.
However, how can an unarmed couple be the opponent of a chaotic soldier like a wolf or a tiger?
A group of soldiers who were crazy and defiled their wife in front of their husbands.
Then, both husband and wife were brutally killed.
He even dug out the vaguely formed fetus in his wife's belly, which was extremely cruel.
Looking at the two corpses covered with white cloth in front of him, the old village chief sighed, his old face full of fatigue and helplessness, his voice paused, and he spoke again.
"Wang Ping and his wife are gone, these four houses are considered the greatest queen, right?"
A middle-aged man nodded and said.
"Yes, the patriarch, Wang Ping is the last male in the fourth room. Now that he and his wife are killed, the incense in the fourth room will be cut off."
The old village chief nodded and said in a deep tone.
"Since that's the case, then let the clan pay the money, choose a good cemetery, and bury the couple with a good life!"
"Look at whoever has a male family who cannot support him. He adopts one and goes to the fourth house. The clan gathers money and food to raise the child together."
"No matter what, you can't let the fourth room break the incense!"
The old village chief's orders were all arranged for the aftermath, and there was no intention of revenge.
From the chaotic times when the Ming and Qing dynasties intersected, they experienced too many similar tragedies.
Even the massacre of cities and villages have not been experienced.
What happened last night was really a heart-warming pain!
But after the matter is over, it will be like that!
After experiencing too much, no matter how cruel or bloody things are, they become accustomed to them.
As for revenge, they dare not think about it!
Who doesn’t know in the troubled times? The most unprovoked thing in the world is the big-headed soldiers holding swords and guns?!
Faced with the murders caused by the riots, they would curse at most.
But after the scolding is over, life still needs to continue.
"My mother, the world of dogs is not a way out!"
A villager said cursingly with a bitter face.
The old village chief heard the villagers' complaints, looked over with sharp eyes instantly, and then spoke.
"Silence your voice, don't cause trouble to the village!"
"If you get into troubled soldiers again, can you bear the consequences?"
The middle-aged man next to the old village chief asked tentatively.
"The village chief, the governor of the Ming Dynasty, did not promise to restrain the military discipline after receiving the military supplies we sent yesterday?"
"Now that such a riot and soldiers harm the local area and kill people's lives, it may be useful to go to the Superintendent of the State to sue the emperor, right?"
The old village chief glanced at the middle-aged man, sighed, and said helplessly.
"It's better to have more things than to have less!"
"Now that the war is coming, the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty gather together, and a decisive battle may break out at any time."
"At this time, how could His Highness, the general, deal with those soldiers because of us, the common people who are promoted to fight?"
"When the time comes, how can the soldiers not come to take revenge on us?"
"Our village cannot withstand the disaster, so let's live a peaceful life!"
The old village chief's voice was full of helplessness.
Because, this is a chaotic world, a chaotic world where people are worse than dogs!
After the old village chief finished speaking, the villagers began to step forward, lifted the two bodies, and went to the cemetery with blows and beatings.
However, as soon as the funeral team arrived at the entrance of the village, a team of cavalry rushed to the distance.
This team of cavalry was wearing armor, and the red armor was as dazzling as flames.
The horse's hooves trampled on the earth, making a rumble vibration.
The flags are waving, and the tall helmets are so majestic!
A team of cavalry rushed to the front of the funeral team. The leader turned over and dismounted, took out a document from his arms, showed it to the village chief, and spoke loudly.
"His Highness the Superintendent decided to deal with the riots in the turmoil in the area last night and invite the victims to go to the military camp!"
After speaking, the cavalry captain waved his hand and ordered.
"Everyone, please, Your Highness, please invite me!"
The old village chief looked shocked when he heard this and waved his hand and said.
"I dare not, don't dare, let it go. It's nothing big. How can I dare to ask the Superintendent to worry about his highness?"
However, the cavalry captain didn't listen to what he said at all.
Semi-forcedly led the old village chief and the clan elders in the village to the Ming army camp on the banks of the Yangtze River.
All those sent out to the villages around the military camp were cavalry teams of the Restoration Army.
Under the strict military discipline, they will not do anything to loot the local area and harm the people.
However, as a feudal army in the true sense, they always put Zhu Hongyu's orders first.
In order to complete the tasks assigned to them by Zhu Hongyu, they did not mind using strong people.
...
The old village chief and others followed the Ming army's cavalry and headed towards the Ming army's camp.
The war horses galloped, and a drop of hot sweat emerged from the horses. From a distance, the white mist evaporated.
It's like a divine horse running out of the clouds and mist!
On the back of the horse, the Ming soldiers with bright armor became more and more majestic.
Teams of cavalry continued to flow into the camp like a river returning to the sea.
At this time, the camp was also uneasy. The assembly call was sounded, and the troops of each unit gathered towards the camp in accordance with different systems.
Army troops stood in a row in the schoolyard, rows and rows, rows and rows were directly horizontally and vertically, like tofu pieces made of a knife and an axe, which was very neat.
