Chapter 545 (1/2)
Dawn is always the darkest moment of every day. The moon has already set, but the sun has not risen, there is not a trace of starlight in the sky. But in the small forest at the entrance of Hu Village, I don't know when a large area of dark shadow has gathered, but the villagers of Hu Village, who have always been comfortable, are still immersed in their dreams.
Li Yuanhe walked at the front of the line with his long gun. Looking at the quiet village in front of him, Li Yuanhe was like a big fat sheep lying there, waiting for his skin to be roasted. Li Yuanhe turned his head and whispered to a group of officers of the vanguard army behind him: ”remember our goal this time, only take grain, not gold and silver!”
”Here! Only grain, not gold and silver The officers nodded, and then passed Li Yuanhe's order to the back, and passed it on all the way until all the vanguard soldiers knew the order. All the officers and men knew the reason for this order. The attack on Hu village was just to collect enough food and grass. If the gold and silver were seized, it would not only be unable to feed the hungry in the future, but also increase the burden.
Li Yuanhe was also very satisfied that all the officers and men could understand their orders. The vanguard army was not weak at all. After several wars, it was more and more close to an iron and blood division. Immediately, Li Yuanhe turned his head, reached out and knocked down the mask on his helmet. His whole body was covered in dark armor, with only one pair of eyes flashing cold light from two holes in the mask. Li Yuanhe held up his spear and whispered to the village ahead: ”vanguard army! Attack After that, he shook the reins with his other hand and clipped his legs. Then he rushed out in front of him. The horses' hooves were covered with thick cloth in advance, and they could only run quietly.
Under the leadership of Li Yuanhe, all the vanguard soldiers followed suit and rushed up. However, unlike the previous charge, the officers and men did not hiss and yell as before, nor did they pull out their weapons. This time, all the officers and soldiers were running towards the front with their mouths tightly closed. Some even tied their mouths with cloth strips. Nevertheless, this silent procession is vaguely emitting a breath of death.
After rushing into Hu Village, Li Yuanhe suddenly grabbed his mount at the entrance of the village, raised a hand and made a gesture to the soldiers behind him. All of a sudden, the officers and soldiers behind him were like a rushing black river. They met a huge rock on the river. They were directly divided into two streams and ran towards both sides of Hu village.
Hu Laoliu is the watchman of Hu village. Every day at dawn, he will get up and come out of his warm home. Although it is already spring, it is still a little chilly outside in the early morning. Hu Laoliu wrapped up his clothes and cursed the evil god. Then he yawned and walked out of the gate with gongs. In fact, Hu Laoliu doesn't pay much attention to the work of his own watchman. The villagers in Hu village are very rich. The only one who works hard is Li Ping, a child born to a woman who elopes with the Han people.
For Li Ping, Hu Laoliu is somewhat pitiful. He has no children of his own. If he didn't mind the eyes of other people in the village, I'm afraid he would have taken Li Ping as his own child. It's a pity that Li Ping's father is a Han nationality. Thinking of this, Hu Laoliu can't help but scold the Han people. Hu Laoliu was originally a retired veteran, and had fought several wars with the later Qin state. However, he didn't like the Han people very much.
He cursed Han dog and Han dog, but the work still had to be done. However, Hu Laoliu deliberately slowed down a little, so that Li Ping could sleep more. Finally, he went to the east of the village. Every day, he started to watch the night. Hu looked up to see the sky, but it was still dark. Immediately, Hu Laoliu shook his hands and feet, picked up the gongs and prepared to play the gongs.
All of a sudden, Hu Laoliu heard a sound of rope coming from the left, and immediately he gave Hu Laoliu a fright. Although Hu Laoliu has been on the battlefield, killed people and stained with blood, it does not mean that he is not afraid of ghosts and gods. How to say that Hu Laoliu is also old, how much of these ghosts and gods said or some fear. However, Hu Laoliu was still emboldened and called out to the left: ”who, who, who!”
Unfortunately, there was no answer from anyone. The only answer to Hu Laoliu was a sudden gust of east wind, which made him feel a gloomy feeling. When Hu Laoliu was scared to run away, he seemed to smell a familiar smell with the east wind. Yes, it was bloody! Hu Laoliu immediately widened his eyes, yes, this is the smell of blood!
