Chapter 137 (1/2)
When marching outside, food, clothing, housing and transportation are certainly not as good as when we were in the capital. What we eat outside is a big pot of rice.
This is Zhu GuanLiang's first time to eat. At the beginning, he was not used to it. All the dishes were cooked in one pot. It was very fragrant, but some dishes were easy to taste together. He had no appetite, so he went back to sleep after two bites.
When I was sleeping in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard something moving outside. The torches were on fire. There was a riot outside the tent. There was also the sound of war. It seemed that I was fighting with someone.
He put on his clothes, opened the tent and went out. Zhou Leping took Chixiao and chopped down a man who raised a knife to chop her. He looked at Zhu GuanLiang and said, ”I'll find a place to hide myself.”
Instead of going back, he went further to her, ”what happened?”
”I don't know.”
The two sides of the camp quickly scuffled together. Zhou Leping hurriedly told him to hide, and then quickly joined the scuffle.
Qi Si slashed to Zhu GuanLiang with two steps and one knife. Seeing that he was still standing outside, he reached out and pushed him, ”what are you doing standing there? What if I don't hide and hurt you later? ”
As soon as the voice fell, he rushed to the other side with a knife.
These people who raided the camp were dressed like mountain people, but they were well-trained, with polished knives and red hair bands of the same color on their wrists. They should be organized and planned.
Standing outside for a while, he saw the fallen bodies on the ground, and Zhou Leping's heroic posture in the distance. The victory was decided, so he went back to the tent with ease.
When it was almost dawn, the fighting outside stopped at last. He opened his tent and went out. Although it was not as tragic as a river of blood, it was also the change from loess to red earth.
Several soldiers pulled the body past him. Zhou Leping wiped the bloodstain on his face with his handkerchief. Chixiao sword opened the skirt of a corpse on the ground. Seeing the tiger's head stabbed on his chest, he sniffed, ”it's pretty good stabbed. Is it alive? Bring it here. I have something to ask. ”
Qi Miao brought up a man who had just been caught and was ready to run away. Zhou Leping wiped the blood on his sword. The blade held his chin and raised it gently. ”Which mountain are you from?”
The man knelt on the ground trembling, his teeth trembling, probably scared, as if he didn't hear, and didn't answer or make any response.
Zhou Leping's blade patted him on the chin, ”do you know who we are? You dare to rob everything in the army. Who are you in charge of? ”
Keith knocked on the man's head. ”Our general asked you, dumb? Speak
The man trembled, was knocked under the head, actually cry out, a warm current under the body, was scared to urine.
Qi Si distanced himself and said, ”he's really hopeless. Even this mouse dares to be a bandit like others. He can talk! Who are you in charge of? ”
”Yes... Yes...” he finally opened his voice and shrunk his shoulders in fear, ”I... our leader is Mr. Chen of Longhushan.”
