Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 9 Slaughter Village
After a while, Xiao Yufang closed her mouth with difficulty, and stared at Yang Menglong with a bad expression.This product is not only helpless at all, but also super edible, three of them can't do as much as one when working, and one is worth three when eating, it's simply unreasonable!For a moment, she had the urge to tell him to get out. Food is extremely scarce in troubled times. Who can afford such a big belly man?However, seeing Yang Menglong's pitiful eyes, her heart softened again.Yang Menglong looked so pitiful, he looked like a little pug that was locked out by the owner and refused to let in. She knew that he was faking it, but she just couldn't bear to turn her face and tell him to go away. She is so kind?She had no choice but to comfort Xiao Jun: "Don't cry, ah, he may be very hungry, so he ate a little more, it's understandable... Don't cry, if you don't have enough to eat, my sister will cook for you Are the eggs good?"

Xiaojun's crying stopped abruptly, tears streaming down his face: "Hey—where are there any eggs? Cook the last two for him to eat!"

Xiao Yufang said: "The chicken will still be born at noon today——"

Yang Menglong suddenly shouted: "Don't talk!"

Xiao Yufang was taken aback by him, and seeing his serious expression, as if he was listening to something, her heart tightened for no reason, and she asked, "What's wrong?"

Yang Menglong said: "There is the sound of horseshoes, and they are rushing towards this side quickly and anxiously!"

Xiao Jun immediately got excited: "Someone came here on a horse?" Horses are very precious these days, and there are not many people who have the ability to buy a horse. In the eyes of children, it is rare to see a galloping horse. Of course he was happy to hear that someone was coming this way on horseback.

Yang Menglong frowned and said: "It seems that there are... there are several horses, yes, there are at least four of them, and they are very fast!"

Xiaojun exclaimed excitedly: "So many horses? I want to go out and have a look!" After finishing the meal, he threw the pancakes on the table and ran out.At this time, the sound of horseshoes was relatively clear, even Xiao Yufang could hear it, she frowned and said, "It's strange, this is not an official road, why are there so many horses running straight here?"

Yang Menglong shook his head, he didn't know, but thinking of the tragic scenes after the slaughtered villages he saw two days ago, he was overshadowed, and blurted out: "Could it be Jiannu who came?"

"Jiannu!?" Xiao Yufang turned pale in shock, her delicate body trembling slightly.Later Jin Tieqi went on a rampage in the Gyeonggi area, killed gods when they met gods, and destroyed Buddhas when they met Buddhas. The name of Xiaojiazhuang was only three hundred miles away from the capital city, so it's natural that they don't know.In fact, during these days, rumors were often heard about which county town was captured by Jiannu, and which town was massacred by Jiannu. They all spoke clearly and clearly, which made people frightened, and many people fled.However, the people in Xiaojiazhuang have always been lucky, thinking that this place is so poor that Jiannu would not come to such a place where rabbits don’t shit and birds don’t lay eggs. They are all lying to themselves. A rotten home, reluctant to part with the crops sown in the field, and nowhere to go, so I can only stay.The Houjin Tieqi is like a cloud of lead, pressing on everyone's heart all day long. Everyone is lying to themselves, burning incense and worshiping Buddha, saving the Buddha's blessing, and don't let these demons break into their homes.Hearing that it might be Jiannu who came, Xiao Yufang was frightened immediately, and said in a trembling voice, "No way? This place is so poor, how could Jiannu..."

Yang Menglong said: "It's hard to say! I have traveled to many places in the past few days and saw that many towns were slaughtered. Not even a live chicken was left... Look at Xiaojun, I will get the guy, just in case. !”

Xiao Yufang was so frightened that she lost her mind, she nodded subconsciously, and ran out to find Jun Xiao, while Yang Menglong ran back to her room to pick up the crossbow and arrows, stepped on the machine, and rushed out.When he went out, he happened to see a puff of smoke approaching the entrance of the village. The sound of horses' hoofs was fast and neat. There were only a few horses, and it was not very loud, but the momentum was very scary, like rolling thunder, which made people breathless. .Yang Menglong's heart sank. Although he had never fought in battle, he could still feel the terrifying murderous aura. Only elite cavalry who had experienced hundreds of battles could have such a murderous aura!
Those who come are definitely not ordinary people!

The sound of horseshoes alarmed the villagers, and everyone ran out one after another to see what happened.Seeing several riders rushing straight towards the entrance of the village, they all stared at each other in horror, and what they saw was a face as pale as their own from fright.The children didn't know this, they just thought it was fun, cheered and ran towards the entrance of the village to see what happened.At this time, the visitors had already emerged from the smoke and dust. They had tall horses and shiny armor. The strong bow in their hands that had been drawn into the shape of a full moon and the gleaming arrowheads clearly showed their identities. Or at least with scars on his face, with a ferocious smile, like a ghost!

Stunned, completely stunned.

These honest peasants stared blankly at these knights rushing towards them. The extreme fear made their hands and feet go weak, their minds went blank, they forgot to run away, forgot to shout, and forgot that the other party's bow and arrow was pointing at them!

Yang Menglong let out a wild roar: "Get down!" He swooped over and threw Xiao Yufang who was pulling Xiao Jun back with all his strength.Almost at the same time, he heard the vibrating of the bowstring, the whistling sound of sharp arrows like a hawk's long chirping, very ear-piercing, and then there was a shrill scream. There were not many villagers standing still, and five of them fell down. The sharp arrows almost pierced their bodies, and blood spattered. Such injuries are hopeless.Seeing someone fall, the villagers finally came to their senses and uttered a heart-piercing scream: "The enemy is coming, run!"There were only a few women with disheveled hair, screaming and rushing towards the rear golden cavalry. The nature of mothers protecting their children made them forget their fear. They only saw the frightened children in their eyes. Snatch it back under the butcher's knife!

Such an act is brave, great, and desperate at the same time.Before they could take a few steps, the bowl-sized hooves of the Houjin Warhorse had already stomped heavily on their children.Then, the saber was unsheathed, and there was no need to slash at all, as long as the saber edge was aimed at the target.And their target is those crazy women with disheveled hair!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The sound of sharp arrows piercing the air continued one after another, and after each sound of the string, a villager must have fallen to the string.The frightened villagers only hated their parents for having lost two legs, and they ran wildly, but they couldn't run a horse no matter what, so they fell down one by one, and were either shot to death by sharp arrows or hacked to death by sabers, anyway. Wherever the cavalry rushed, there would be casualties!The most desperate thing is the wild laughter of those post-golden cavalry who are killing a lot. Yes, they are laughing and beheading or shooting the villagers one by one. In their view, this is just a scene Competition, a game they love to play!
Xiao Yufang was very lucky, because Yang Menglong threw her down vigilantly, and dragged her and Xiao Jun into the house. Both siblings were not injured, but they were scared out of their wits and turned pale.Xiaojun's face was pale, and she hid in her sister's arms and kept shaking, unable to speak. Xiao Yufang hugged her younger brother desperately, and asked Yang Menglong crying: "What should we do now?" She completely forgot that they knew each other. It's only been a day, and she subconsciously regards Yang Menglong as her only support.The cries and screams in the village shook the heavens and the earth, and people were being killed constantly. In this kind of hell, besides Yang Menglong, who else could she rely on?
Xiao Yufang didn't know that Yang Menglong, whom she regarded as her only reliance, was almost scared to death.He grew up in a peaceful environment. Although that world is far from being closed at night and not picking up things, it is full of indifference, utilitarianism, impetuousness and deceit. It is difficult to guarantee the most basic trust between people, but at the very least, It was a peaceful era. When he grew up in that environment, when had he seen such a bloody massacre?Even if I have seen it, I saw it on the news. What is remarkable is just a few photos and a piece of dry text, and I don’t feel much after seeing it.But this time it was different, the inhuman killing happened right under his nose. These villagers who did not pose any threat to the post-golden cavalry were shot through their bodies with sharp arrows, their heads were chopped off with sabers, and their houses were set alight. Burning, blood splattering, shrill screams, heart-piercing cries, terrified begging, and the wild laughter of the Golden Cavalrymen set off monstrous waves in his heart, tearing his heart apart, and he heard his own The sound of nerves breaking.All of this was played out before his eyes like slow motion, and every detail could be clearly seen:

A peasant woman ran desperately with her child in her arms, a spear pierced her from behind, and her chest came in and out, putting her and the child together; a farmer who seemed to be quite strong He picked up a hoe and threw it at the cavalrymen who were rushing forward, the light of the knife flashed; an old man stood tremblingly at the door with a fire stick, trying to protect his grandson and daughter-in-law who were hiding inside, a sharp arrow pierced through his chest immediately head...

These beasts, they want to slaughter the village!
There is no grievance, no reason, they just want to kill all the people in the village and rob all the property in the village!
"What should we do?" Xiao Yufang's voice was right next to her ears, but it seemed to be coming from the sky, so far away that she could hardly hear it.

Yes, what should I do?How to do it?
