Chapter 54 Ungrateful!
Wei Dongzhu looked at the sky with empty eyes. The steaming heat reminded him of the fire in the northwest. The fire not only took away his relatives, Wei Jiajun, but also him.
If it weren’t for the belief in revenge that always supported him, he would have died on the way to seek medical treatment!
"Major General..." the soldier shouted again.
Wei Dongzhu withdrew his gaze: "We are all dead now. In order not to expose our identity, you can call me big brother from now on!"
The soldiers under his command all marched together as if they had obeyed military orders. He responded: "Yes!"
Wei Dong looked thoughtful and said: "There must have been an expert behind the scenes yesterday, otherwise it would have been impossible for the refugees to escape so easily!"
< br>"Young...Brother, when we were looking up the mountain, there was a fire on the top of the mountain. Many guards went up the mountain to put out the fire!"
"We followed the Shen family all the way back to the city gate and found thick smoke billowing above Cangzhou City. "
Wei Dongzhu's eyes moved slightly: "Tune the tiger away from the mountain, sound east and attack the west!"
The soldiers who followed Wei Dongzhu were all his personal guards and had also learned the art of war. When he heard what he said, he immediately understood why the refugees were saved so easily!
Wei Dongzhu thought of the war in the northwest, with pity in his eyes.
"If it were in the past, if we had such people who knew how to deploy troops and generals and were familiar with the art of war, I would have invited them into the army even if I only visited the thatched cottage three times!"
After he finished speaking, his eyes slowly turned to regret. dim.
It’s ridiculous, where is the Wei family army now? They are the only anonymous people who are neither humans nor ghosts!
“Give me medicine!”
The only thought he has in his life now is to avenge the Wei family army, his relatives and the dead and injured people!
He must not die before his revenge is avenged!
……
Leaving the area of Cangzhou City, the further you go to the southeast, the hotter and drier it becomes. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the steaming heat is like entering a hot air box, causing everyone to sweat and become dehydrated rapidly!
"Sir, our water can only last for two more days at most." Haruyuki said anxiously.
Qiu Shuang; "People can persevere without drinking water, but horses can't survive without drinking water for a day!" The car is loaded with supplies and has to pull people, which consumes a lot of physical strength of the horse, and the weather is hot. The children's thirsty mouths were foaming with foam. If this continued, the horses would become dehydrated before they did!
Shen Lanxi: "All the prisoners got off the carriage and walked. Throw away all the unnecessary things on the carriage. Leave the water that the horses need to drink alone!"
"Yes!"
After Haruyuki went to report it, the officials soon drove the prisoners out of the car.
The prisoners were already hot and thirsty. When they heard that they were asked to walk, they all complained and did not want to get off the car.
Liu Laohu whipped them several times, and no matter how reluctant they were, they did not dare to get into trouble!
“We all got off the car, why didn’t he get off!” The prisoner pointed at Shen Lanxi’s carriage and shouted angrily.
Other prisoners responded immediately.
"That's right, we all got off the bus, why didn't he get off? Our horses have no water to drink, but his horses have water to drink?" "Yes, if we want to get off together, no one can be an exception. ! ”
The stamping feet of spring snow and autumn frost!
"These ungrateful things have forgotten who saved them. If I had known they would bite back, it would be better to save a dog than to save them!"
"I'll go find them!" Qiu Shuang rushed that way. Before she got there, she heard Liu Laohu's angry scolding and the sound of a whip.
"Do you want me to remind you that carriages and horses belong to other people? You are all shameless, eating and drinking for free and riding in carriages for free, and now you are biting others in turn. People like you are not exiled. Who is exiled?"
"You should be eaten as food by the refugees, and you should all die of exhaustion in the mountains. If you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that the big knife in my hand has no eyes!"
Liu Laohu cursed angrily, and then they remembered that the food and water in the carriage were not their own. They felt like they were being strangled by the neck. They wanted to refute, but they didn't know what to say.
Liu Laohu glared angrily: "I think it was me who spoiled you all the way and made you, the exiled prisoners, so comfortable. If you don't want to walk on a good road, I will push the cart for you. If anyone dares to be lazy, I will Cut it down now, just to save food and water!"
This is not the way to go. Liu Yanhui hurriedly went to find Shen Lanxi with sweat on his face.
"Sir, the weather is too hot. Traveling like this will consume you too quickly. I suggest that we rest during the day and drive at night!"
Shen Lanxi: "Okay, there is a deserted village ahead, let's go there to rest!"
Liu Yan stood on tiptoes and glanced into the distance, but saw nothing.
How did the young master know?
Is it possible to use an eagle to find the way? That's for sure!
Liu Laohu heard that there was a deserted village in front of him, and looked at the unconvinced prisoners one by one. He could not suppress his anger no matter how hard he felt.
"Unload the horses and let them rest. Let the prisoners push the cart!"
The government officials went to do it immediately. They had long disliked these prisoners. When they were escorting prisoners in the past, which prisoner would dare to contradict them like this?
Everyone is scared of the ambition of the leopard. If you don’t give them some clues, they won’t know how many eyes Lord Ma has!
The prisoners complained again, and the government officials were angry and worried that they would not have a chance to deal with them. When they heard them complaining, they immediately cracked the whip.
It doesn’t matter if he is from the Shen family or someone else, slap him!
Under the violent suppression of the cadres, the prisoners all became docile on the surface, but what were they thinking in their hearts? Does anyone care?
Shen Lanxi took the lead in rushing to the deserted village with his carriage and horses. On the pretext of exploring the deserted village, he separated Chunxue and others and gave the horses water!
These horses are now the main labor force. Without them to haul supplies, these people would also die!
People can be thirsty, but horses can’t!
In order not to arouse suspicion, each horse was only fed half a bucket of water. Before Haruyuki and others come back, clean up the buckets and any traces of water!
The deserted village is not yet dilapidated. Most of the houses are half-new, but because they are uninhabited, they look empty and desolate. There is not a single plant or tree. They have obviously been used as food rations by the villagers who originally lived here!
"Sir, there is no one in the village. All the wells are dry and dry. We checked several houses and there is not a grain of food. All the people in this village must have fled the famine!"
Shen Lanxi: "Pack up the two rooms and come out!"
"Yes!"
Not long after the rooms here were packed, Liu Laohu also arrived with the prisoners.
The prisoners shouted for water, which prompted Liu Laohu to whip his whip a few more times before he went to find Shen Lanxi!
Mama Li has already prepared the meal. Since there is no water, she prioritizes saving water. She only prepared a few slices of grilled buns, a few slices of barbecue, two pickles, and a bowl of water.
When Liu Laohu arrived, Shen Lanxi was putting pickles in the steamed buns, taking a mouthful of steamed buns and a mouthful of water, without showing any sign of disgust.
He is a rough man and doesn’t know how to say nice things. He just thinks that such a young master is more convincing!
