I was engaged in construction in ancient times

Chapter 40 Requirements

In a tile-roofed courtyard on the top of Liuye Mountain, several women were tied up in the courtyard.

"I don't want to live anymore. Now that I have lost my innocence, what's the point of living?" A disheveled woman in a blue sarong lay on the ground with a mournful face and wailed.

These women were originally villagers of Shangxi Village, but they were taken up to the mountain by bandits who burned, killed and looted, and were even ruined by bandit leaders.

Feng Tingting stared at the mouth of the well in the courtyard with dark eyes. In the well was her former good friend Liu Xiaoyu. Unable to bear the humiliation, Xiaoyu committed suicide by throwing herself into the well.

Xu Cui'er beside her was a little scared, trembling all over, her lips trembling and said: "Tingting, don't you also want to—" Throw yourself into the well.

Feng Tingting was still wearing a wedding gown, which was blood-red and blood-red. Her complexion was pale, and the dark red wedding gown made her look like a ghost. When the robbers entered the village, Feng Tingting was making wedding clothes at home. In a few days, she She was about to marry a young man from the Cui family as a daughter-in-law, but when the bandits entered the village, they knocked her unconscious and snatched her wedding dress, and when they humiliated her, they forced her to change into a wedding dress that hadn't been finished yet.

There was a thick bruise on the corner of her mouth, with a few strands of blood in the blue, and the smell of iron entered her tongue. Feng Tingting barely moved her lips: "I want to dance, I have already danced."

"What are you dancing, come here, little beauty, come and give the old man a kiss." At this time, the courtyard door was pushed open, and a man carrying a wine jar and walking a few steps wobbled in. The beard, with greasy food residue stuck to the beard, looked extremely disgusting from a distance.

Last night, the bandits in Liuye Mountain gathered together to drink and gamble, and they played all night long.

For bandits, every day is a day of celebration, not to mention, they have robbed so much food and money, it is a good time for gambling and gathering.

"Come and kiss me." As soon as the man entered the yard, he walked towards Xu Cui'er, stretched out his face like a pig's head, and approached Xu Cui'er's face with a sinister beard.

"Ah!" Xu Cui'er screamed.

Xu Cui'er closed her eyes, and her beard fell on her body. There was no other movement. When she opened her eyes, Xu Cui'er saw a big hole in the back of the bearded man's head. Blood flowed from the hole. Feng Tingting stood holding a stone. Behind her, the rope in her hand had been pulled away, and there were bloody red marks on her wrist.

dead!

Xu Cui'er was so scared that she couldn't scream, she was terrified, her eyes were empty, "Tingting, you killed someone."

Feng Tingting calmly threw the stone aside, found a small knife from the bearded man, and dragged him to the well by his legs, she murmured: "I won't throw you down, so as not to dirty Xiaoyu." The place."

"Tingting, what are you doing?"

Feng Tingting turned her head: "The people outside are still sleeping, are you going to escape with me?"

"Escape? How can we escape, there are people guarding outside..."

"What if we are caught and brought back?"

"We can't escape, Tingting, don't do stupid things."

"Do you still remember the person who escaped yesterday, they raised a dog, and she was bitten to death by the dog..."

Feng Tingting hugged the knife to her chest: "If you don't leave, I will leave, and I will leave this ghost place even if I die."

Feng Tingting walked out of the yard, carefully bypassed the two drunk bandits at the door, and ran out along the wall. When she was about to escape from the stone gate, the patrolling bandits spotted the moving red dress. Feng Tingting's red dress was too conspicuous. "Catch her! There's a woman running away!"

"Bitch!"

"Wang Wang!!!"

"Take the dog to chase her, this bitch can't run very far."

Feng Tingting ran down the mountain with all her strength. The trees on the mountain were one after another, which was the best natural barrier. She ran all the way down the hillside, with dogs barking and men cursing behind her.

Men's footsteps are faster than women's.

"Ah!" Feng Tingting fell and rolled down the hill.

The three men chasing him laughed loudly: "Haha, this stinky woman can't run very far!"

Feng Tingting fell to the ground, and the man behind her was getting closer and closer. Her right hand firmly held the knife in her hand, and her left hand grabbed a handful of dirt. The sharp green vines on the ground scratched her hand with several bloodstains.

She didn't feel any pain.

Even if she dies, she will take a few with her.

"Wang Wang!"

"Let the dog bite her!"

The moment Feng Tingting made up her mind, the grass around her moved.

The three men were about to arrive at her side. Feng Tingting turned her head while holding the knife, just in time to see a few moving "grass and vine monsters" knocking out the three people and one dog chasing her. She blurted out in surprise, "Who are you?"

Liang Lei, the head of the grass and vine monster, hissed, "We were sent by General Duan to suppress the bandits."

Only then did Feng Tingting see the real appearance of these "grass and vine monsters". It turned out that they were wearing strange green clothes with leaves and vines tied to their bodies, and they were lying on the ground without looking carefully. Can't tell it's a person at all.

Liang Feng and others hid the three men who had been knocked out.

"Hush, don't talk, get down, someone is coming."

Feng Tingting pretended to fall to the ground, "Did you see that woman is there!"

"Xu San and the others, didn't they catch up just now—"

"what--"

Several thieves were knocked down by the same method.

"Captain, we have caught more than 30 bandits, and we have just interrogated one and found their den."

Liang Lei nodded, "Send someone to send this girl back first."

Liang Lei pointed at Feng Tingting.

Feng Tingting shook her head and clenched the knife in her hand: "I want to go up with you. There are a few women up there who were arrested like me. You must rescue them."

"Don't worry, we promised your family that we will definitely rescue you back."

Liang Lei looked at this woman who was in such a state of distress and who had obviously suffered something, and was somewhat admirable when she saw that she was neither crying nor fussing. This girl just knocked a bandit unconscious.

Feng Tingting insisted: "I want to go up with you, and I want to avenge myself."

"How about this, Xu Qing, find a few who are similar in stature, put on bandit clothes, go up with this girl, pretend to catch her back, if they don't see you through, you play by ear, if they see you through , just put a flash ball in the den of thieves, and we will respond from behind."

The flashing ball that Liang Lei was talking about was a kind of firework, and when it exploded, it would emit silver light to block his sight.

Feng Tingting: "Okay."

Feng Tingting went back to Liuye Mountain bandit den with three soldiers who changed their outfits.

The thieves whistled and cheered, "Look, they're back."

"Catch him back, let's see how I torture this stinky bitch."

"Hehehe, it's so nice to see the girl's figure, I really don't want to torture her to death."

The four of Feng Tingting walked into the thief's den. The robbers at the door sensed something was wrong and shouted: "No! These three people don't know each other!"

"Bang!" The flash ball exploded.

Liang Lei waved his hand: "Let's go."

"Someone is breaking in!!!"

"Boss, boss, someone is calling in!!!"

"Many people jumped off the wall!!"

The gang led by Liang Lei fought with the bandits. The bandits ate, drank and had fun all night. The thieves and bandits in Yeshan can occupy the mountain as king, and there are naturally a few ruthless people among them.

Liang Lei's team is all new soldiers from Yangzhou. They have only undergone a few months of training and haven't seen much blood. Although they are strong and skilled, they can't help but be lighter when fighting. Some people, Not even the bandits dared to kill them.

"I, I, I... I really killed someone!!"

Liang Lei wiped his face and reprimanded, "So what if you kill someone? They're all a group of bandits who have harmed the village. Do you want to show mercy to them?"

"After training under the general for so long, is it possible that you are not as good as a woman?"

The woman Liang Lei talked about, Feng Tingting, grabbed a knife and killed four or five bandits. She would not let anyone who bullied them yesterday. The blood splashed on her wedding dress, and the deep red color was like a black hole. .

The person who was scolded was ashamed, and his actions became more and more ruthless.

In a real fight, either you die or I die.

After this hard work, everyone's minds have been tempered, their eyes have become firmer, and there is a faint murderous aura on their bodies. They have deeply realized that fighting with bandits is not a normal sparring. With the slightest mercy, on the battlefield, even if you risk your life, you must kill the enemy.

Liang Lei knocked Liu Yuqing, the thief leader of Liuyeshan, to the ground. When Liu Yuqing fell to the ground on his back, Feng Tingting stabbed the thief leader's heart with a knife, and the hot blood sprayed out covered her face.

Since she was a child, she went up the mountain with a knife to weed, cut trees, and chopped firewood. Now, she can also kill enemies with her hands.

Feng Tingting smiled brightly: "Xiaoyu, I have avenged you."

Feng Tingting's bloody wedding dress stuck to her body, and her beautiful face seemed to be covered with a layer of red veil.

The soldiers who looked at her couldn't help feeling a little timid and admiring.

All the bandits on Liuye Mountain were wiped out. The bandits on this hill were the most vicious and ruthless gangs of bandits in the north of Xiya Mountain. Hundreds of bandits who surrendered rescued more than 30 captured villagers.

The den of thieves was full of food, and there was money left over from gambling and drinking on the ground. Liang Lei led people to confiscate the weapons, and sent people to guard the den of thieves. After sending the rescued villagers back to Xinyang City, Ask people to bring back the confiscated money and food with ox carts and horse-drawn carts.

In this attack, there were no casualties in their team, but dozens of people were injured.

"Tingting, my Tingting, you have finally been rescued, thank you General Duan, thank you Captain Liang, Tingting, you are covered in, ah—blood!!" Feng Yufeng cried with joy when she saw her daughter come back, and waited After she saw the thick blood on her daughter's body, she fainted from fright.

"Mother, mother, I'm fine." Feng Tingting quickly hugged her mother.

Standing next to Feng Tingting was Cui Ying, a young man from the Cui family. Her future husband-in-law did not dare to approach her when he saw her in a blood-red wedding dress. Cui Ying remembered her mother's words. The thieves have insulted your innocence, Yinger, my mother will help you choose a new wife, forget about Tingting.

He still couldn't let go of Tingting. Tingting was as beautiful as a flower, and she was the prettiest girl in the village. But seeing her now, she was covered in blood, and there were tooth marks on her neck. The wedding dress soaked in blood looked terrible. Terrific, is this woman still the Tingting he likes?

Liang Lei helped Feng Tingting take her mother back to her home in Xinyangcheng.

Feng Tingting didn't even look at Cui Ying.

On the other side, the other mountain that Su Gang took the lead in attacking also won a complete victory, and returned to Xinyang City with food and prisoners.

Duan Shubai decided to distribute the confiscated grain to the villagers who had been robbed before, "After you recover the grain, you can return to your original village, or you can stay in Xinyang City."

"Thank you General, we are willing to stay in Xinyang City."

Most of the villagers with lingering fears chose to stay in Xinyang City, and a small number of people chose to go back. Feng Tingting's family stayed in Xinyang City. Feng Yufeng touched her daughter's hand and kept saying: "From now on, we will stay in the city. General Duan is here, and the bad guys dare not come again. Tingting, the general’s wife is also very good, and she also treats everyone for free. I have some health problems. He also prescribed free prescriptions and gave me medicine. We will stay in Xinyang from now on In the city, please repay the general well."

"Okay, mother, we will stay in Xinyang City, mother... Forget about my marriage with Cui Ying."

Feng Yufeng sighed: "Okay."

Feng Yufeng thought of the face of Cui's mother-in-law, and was both hateful and exasperating.

"Our future husband for Tingting must be better than that kid from the Cui family!"

Feng Yufeng thought of Captain Liang Leiliang who sent her back. This young man is also very nice, but her Tingting is like this. Would he dislike his daughter?Alas...forget it.

No matter what, at least her family Tingting is back, unlike Xiaoyu, what a poor child, these bandits who killed thousands of knives!

Duan Shubai's subordinates have achieved a complete victory in cleaning up the bandits in the north of Xiya Mountain. The recruits in Yangzhou have gone through a lot of experience, and they are full of blood and iron. Duan Shubai is very satisfied with this.

Liang Lei and Su Gang won the first battle, and Duan Shubai, Zhang Changle, and several other team leaders also led people to clean up a few small hills.

Before Duan Shubai went to Xuanzhou, Xinyang City originally had more than 300 people. Now, there are 500 to 500 Jianzhou refugees, plus more than 1000 villagers who have moved into Xinyang City one after another, and the extermination With [-] young villagers rescued by bandits and [-] bandits captured, the total population of Xinyang City is close to [-].The soldiers under Duan Shubai had changed from the original more than [-] people to absorb [-] former prisoners of labor reform under Su Gang and more than [-] refugees from Jianzhou, plus some healthy villagers who continued to join, the army size reached [-] to [-] people .

The original five teams were changed to six, and Su Gang became the captain of the sixth team. The number of teams changed from 100 to 200, with ten people in a squad, 30 people in a row, and a team divided into six rows.

Duan Shubai came back from his training in the morning, and happened to run into Zhang Changle who came back from a mountain, and Zhang Changle sighed: "Sure enough, it's more comfortable to go out and exercise your hands and feet."

"General, your military training goal has also been achieved. I heard that these boys who have seen blood have been very aggressive recently. The people in the cafeteria said that they have consumed [-]% more food recently."

Duan Shubai walked up to him with a smile and hooked his shoulders: "Changle, now you can relax and help me with my business this afternoon."

Zhang Changle turned his face unrepentantly, and murmured: "General, I am a general, I am a general."

Duan Shu smiled: "I know, I am also a general, I am also a general."

"The trivial things that civil servants do should be left to civil servants."

"But we don't have one here, Changle, you should take care of it a bit more and take a part-time job."

After Zhang Changle clicked his tongue twice, he suddenly mentioned: "General, when will you bring back that guy named Fu Qianxi to use him? Just now when I came over, I saw him scolding you while pouring dung water. Let's get rid of him." It would be much easier to come here to do business."

"What did he scold me for?"

"The big devil, the reckless general, the vicious warrior, or something like that."

Duan Shubai put his elbows on Zhang Changle's shoulders, put his hands on his cheeks and said, "I was going to use him today, but after hearing what you said, he still dared to scold me, he must have not yet integrated into our new The harmonious atmosphere in Yangcheng, I have decided to let him stay in the military training camp for a few more days, by the way, I want to send him to clean the pigsty, look at those wild boars who did not obey discipline before, now one by one If you are obedient, this kid should follow suit."

"So, Chang Le, you still need to take care of these official affairs."

Zhang Changle almost didn't bring it up: "..."

"Changle, why don't you answer?"

After Zhang Changle made 1000 million preparations in his heart, he finally plucked up the courage and said bravely with his eyes closed: "General, it's fine for me to handle business, but Changle has a small request."

"any request?"

"Can you make your character a little more beautiful?" Even though we are generals, we still want to make that character more beautiful.

Duan Shubai: "..."

This time, he was choked speechless.

Xuebaba-Duan's only shortcoming is that his handwriting is not good-looking. After coming to ancient times, when he writes with a brush, he is a caterpillar of different fat and thin.

His rather thick face remained unmoved, and his tone turned into anger from embarrassment: "What's the use of writing beautifully, if you can recognize it, it's enough. Didn't you say that we are military generals? Which military general have you seen with beautiful handwriting?"

Zhang Changle thought to himself: What I wrote is very beautiful.

"It smells like blood. Stay away from this general. I'm going to find my wife. I'll wait for you in the side hall of the meeting hall in the afternoon."
