Zhang Xiaowu ate the roasted chicken and drank the shochu. The aroma was so fragrant that it even dispersed the stench in the dungeon, which also aroused protests from the surrounding prisoners of war. The Wuhuan prisoners of war next door were lying next to the wooden fence and squinting.
With his eyes open and smelling, Zhang Xiaowu threw the leftover chicken bones over, causing the Wuhuan prisoners of war to scramble for them.
Zhang Xiaowu laughed even more arrogantly when he saw them fighting like dogs. After having had enough wine and food, he stretched out his waist, lay on the dry grass paper and watched Zhao Suo and Chen Guanxi remove Badener's body. Two more prisoners of war came in and took the
Using a rag and a basin, he wiped the blood on the floor clean. Zhang Xiaowu lay on the withered grass and felt very comfortable. After getting drunk, he fell asleep again.
The jailer named Wang Yijin took a sneak peek and saw Zhang Xiaowu sleeping calmly and completely regardless of his surroundings. He was filled with admiration and hurriedly told Hu Sanwan and Gao Shichang.
Gao Shi sighed and said: "As expected of someone who was killed in Tucheng to have such a character. I heard that General Shi will arrive in Mucheng soon. If he sees this old subordinate at that time, he will definitely support him. Hu Sanwan,
If you treat him well, if this young captain is promoted in the future, he might remember you."
Hu Sanwan said: "It's good if he can pay me back for the wine. I don't need him to remember me. I bought him chicken and wine today because he killed Badener for me. That bastard punched me
A front tooth, the pain last night kept me awake all night, and I vomited 20 taels of blood. By the way, Mr. Chief, what is the origin of Badener? How come the captain, captain and other officials pay so much attention to this matter?
he?"
Gao Shichang pretended to be profound and asked: "Do you know the story of buying bones for a thousand gold coins?"
Hu Sanwan said in surprise: "One bone weighs a thousand catties?"
Gao Sheng said that you are an uneducated person, and explained: "Read more, buy bones with a thousand gold, which is a metaphor for trying every means to recruit talents. Now that the North and South Tartars are divided, the Eastern and Western Tartars, who used to be ignored by everyone, have become two parties.
The target to win over, this Badener has a certain prestige in the eastern grasslands. If the general can recruit him to serve our Holy Han, other tribes may follow suit. It is a pity that this man is used to being unruly and has massacred several Han villages, some
Although people agreed to recruit him, some people thought that he massacred Han villages and was a Tartar who hated the Han people in his heart, so General Cheng was hesitant."
Hu Sanwanyi slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "Come on, General, there is no need to hesitate now. Badener is dead, and he even recruited a bird egg."
Gao Shi gave him a long look, but Hu Sanwan didn't care. It seemed that the enemy's hatred was more important than the general's plan.
Less than an hour later, Secretary Guan hurried back with his people and ordered: "You two and I will take that person to see the Lord, and the Lord will personally investigate the matter."
"Here."
Hu Sanwan, Gao Shichang and others returned to the dungeon and woke up Zhang Xiaowu. Zhang Xiaowu got up and straightened his clothes before following everyone out of the dungeon. When the other prisoners saw him leaving arrogantly, they immediately cursed loudly. Although the prisoners
Because of differences in race and ethnicity, there were fights from time to time, but when their enemies were Han Chinese, they were extremely united.
Hu Sanwan, Chen Guanxi, Zhao Suo, Wang Yijin and others used wooden sticks to beat the prisoners away, shouting curses and giving orders, but the prisoners still stood by the fence, shouting and provoking Zhang Xiaowu.
Zhang Xiaowu walked through the corridor without saying a word with his head lowered. When he arrived at the door of the dungeon, he suddenly heard a Wuhuan prisoner in the nearest cell shouting: "Han women, play to death! Hahahaha, Han women, play to death."
Die!" Zhang Xiaowu was not crazy, but he couldn't bear the stimulation. When he heard him shouting about Han women, his mind immediately thought of his wife Jiu'er who was forced to jump into the Jialan River.
Zhang Xiaowu was so angry that he suddenly pulled out the saber from Hu Sanwan's waist. With a flash of cold light, the blade pierced the belly of the first Wuhuan man. Almost the next moment, Zhang Xiaowu quickly pulled out the saber and stabbed the third one again.
There were two Wuhuan men, but the second Wuhuan prisoner reacted very quickly and jumped back to avoid the knife.
The first Wuhuan man fell to the ground in pain, howling loudly and rolling around. The ground was covered with blood, flowing to other cells. The other abusive prisoners were dumbfounded, and even took a few steps back to hide in the shadows, as if
Zhang Xiaowu would rush to the door of their cell and kill them - this madman, this was definitely a madman.
Zhang Xiaowu refused, and cut off the lock with another knife. He rushed into the cell and slashed all the eight Wuhuan people inside with his knife to death. He walked back to the fence and saw the first man on the ground who was still wailing.
He was a Wuhuan prisoner of war and put a knife on his neck.
The Wuhuan prisoner held his stomach and begged in harsh holy Chinese: "Don't kill me, don't kill me. I can give you money, and my family can spend money to redeem me."
Zhang Xiaowu used a knife to slowly and cruelly slit the Wuhuan man's throat, blood spurted out, and he died after a while.
Only then did the Han army guards react, but they all drew their swords to protect themselves. This fierce and cruel man, everyone wanted to protect themselves first.
Zhang Xiaowu handed the knife to the ground and said flatly: "I'll give you the knife back. You can wipe it yourself."
"How dare you kill someone?" Hu Sanwan carefully picked up the waist knife and suddenly put the knife on Zhang Xiaowu's neck.
Zhang Xiaowu did not shy away, but smiled proudly.
Gao Shichang hid behind the secretary, stuck his head out, and asked in horror: "What should we do, Mr. Secretary? He, he, he - this kid killed someone."
Guan Xiang was angry and scared, and he couldn't bear to kill Gao Shichang who was hiding behind him with a sword. This bastard actually used himself as a human shield. He would have to deal with him in the future. Guan Xiang was also afraid that Zhang Xiaowu would rush out and kill him.
, how could he, a civilian general, resist it? His hand holding the sword was still trembling, and he said angrily: "You - don't come over."
Zhang Xiaowu slowly raised his hand, stared at the blood on his hand, wiped it on his body, and said calmly: "Before leaving the dungeon, I have to leave some thoughts for them, lest they forget me." He turned to the crowd.
The prisoners of war shouted: "Xiao, Zhang Xiaowu, the 27th Regiment of the Holy Han Forbidden Army, remember me, I will take the lives of all of you." The prisoners of war were too frightened to speak. They looked at Zhang Xiaowu as if they had seen the devil.
.
Guan Xiang took a few deep breaths before regaining his composure, glanced at Zhang Xiaowu complicatedly, and then said, "Take him to see the captain."
It was noon now, and the sun was dazzling. When Zhang Xiaowu walked out of the dungeon, he saw high walls on all sides. The half-high dungeon made of blue bricks and stones only revealed a window. The windows were filled with people of all kinds, staring at each other.
Looking out the window, breathing the air outside, feeling the sunshine and wind. Most of the people lying on the window were officers or prison bullies among the prisoners of war. They looked unruly, and some even shouted to each other and chatted. Somehow, someone spoke out.
The young man killed Badener, which immediately aroused the anger of Badener's subordinates.
Several Eastern Tartar horse bandits who knew Chinese shouted: "We will kill you to avenge the eagle. You must remember this hatred, thinking that you will become the enemy of the entire Saibei wilderness."
Zhang Xiaowu naturally couldn't understand what they said, but he knew those people wouldn't say nice things. He sneered and made a gesture of slitting his throat at them. The prisoners became even more angry. Secretary Guan warned them hard: "Sir, please don't make peace with me."
They have common sense." He was afraid of this dirty
A man gets violent and continues killing people. Should he stop him or not? If he does, how can he stop him? Should he kill him? It seems that this man has just recovered from a serious illness, but his murderous methods and determination just now, I am afraid that these
The jailer, who only guards prisoners, cannot stop it.
Zhang Xiaowu asked: "Why should we keep these people to work or do hard labor?"
Secretary Guan said: "The prince originally wanted to overwhelm the dog barbarians, so he kept the prisoners of war as bargaining chips. However, he did not expect that the dog barbarians actually attacked Tucheng and massacred the city. So these prisoners of war are probably... you will die if you don't follow me."
The person is angry."
Zhang Xiaowu smiled disdainfully. What was on the prince's mind? What's the point of keeping alien prisoners of war? It would be better to kill them early. He followed the secretary through the prison camp and was taken to a house made of stones.
Entering the house, I found that it was a torture chamber. Torture instruments were placed everywhere. Two
The hunky-backed jailer stood aside with a cruel look on his face. However, they did not embarrass Zhang Xiaowu. They were just worried that the man would suddenly injure the captain, so they stood behind him. Perhaps his strong figure gave them great confidence.
But in Zhang Xiaowu's opinion, he only needed five moves to kill these two people.
After a while, a man with a shiny face walked in. This man was wearing plain casual clothes, he was very imposing, and he was wearing cloud-soled boots. This man's face was a bit babyish but he had a greedy look on his face.
"This is the captain of the prison camp, Mr. Su Yusu." Secretary Guan said.
"I've met Colonel Su." Zhang Xiaowu said. They were of equal rank, so there was no need to salute, they just nodded.
Su Yu smiled and nodded in return, sitting directly opposite Zhang Xiaowu. His figure was a little thin, and he habitually held a crutch inlaid with gems in his left hand. Although he did not need a crutch at all, a crutch seemed to stand out more.
He was of noble origin. He was holding a teapot in his other hand, like those dog young men in Longdu City who like to have fun in the rubble of the hook fence, pecking at the spout of the teapot and drinking by himself, making a sizzling sound of enjoyment.
, nor spoke.
After drinking tea for a while, Su Yu looked over slowly, staring into Zhang Xiaowu's eyes, as if he wanted to see the truth in his eyes and confirm whether Zhang Xiaowu was lying to him. Zhang Xiaowu did not dodge his gaze, even though there seemed to be a knife in the other person's eyes.
, their sharp gazes collided.
Su Yu's frank and persistent gaze made Su Yu a little unsure. He took another sip of tea and said slowly: "You said you were the captain of the 27th Regiment Yizi Yingdian, but as far as I know, the 27th Regiment
There are only two Dianjun captains in the regiment, both of whom are over forty years old. I was in charge of the secretary just now
The officer went to the General's Mansion and got a roster from Zhou Shenjun. The two Dianjun captains of the 27th Regiment were Cui Wei, a member of the Cui clan in Jiangzhou; and Guo Dingjun, one of the thirteen Taibao of the founding of the country. I was surprised. Your name is
What's your name? Is your name Cui Wei, or Guo Dingjun?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Zhang Xiaowu, on May 11, the 29th year of Taiqian, General Shi Jing of the 27th Regiment promoted me to the post of Yizi Yingdian Military Academy Lieutenant."
Su Yu suddenly slammed the table and asked: "Do you know what the crime is of impersonating an officer? No matter how much money you spend, you can't buy your life!"
