Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

Wei Dongzhu stared at the sky with empty eyes. The scorching heat reminded him of the fire in the northwest. That fire took away not only his relatives and the Wei family army, but also him.

If he hadn't been supported by the belief in revenge, he would have died on the way to seek medical treatment!

"Major General..." the soldier shouted again.

Wei Dongzhu retracted his gaze: "We are already dead now. In order not to reveal our identities, you can call me Big Brother from now on!"

The soldiers responded in unison as if they had received an order: "Yes!"

Wei Dongzhu looked thoughtful: "There must have been a master behind the scenes yesterday, otherwise those refugees would never have been able to escape so easily!"

"Brother, when we went up the mountain, there was a big 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 rising above Cangzhou City."

Wei Dongzhu's eyes moved slightly: "Lure the tiger away from the mountain, make a feint to the east and attack in the west!"

The soldiers following Wei Dongzhu were all his personal guards, and they had also learned the art of war. When they heard him say this, they immediately understood why the refugees were so easily rescued!

Wei Dongzhu thought of the war in the northwest, and a look of regret appeared in his eyes.

"If it were in the past, I would have invited someone who knows how to deploy troops and is familiar with the art of war to join the army even if I had to visit him three times!"

After he finished speaking, the look of pity in his eyes slowly dimmed.

It's ridiculous. There is no Wei's Army now! There are only these nameless people who are neither human nor ghost!

"Give me medicine!"

His only thought in life now is to avenge the Wei family army, his relatives, and the dead and injured civilians!

He must not die before his great revenge is achieved!

……

Leaving Cangzhou City, the further you go southeast, the hotter and drier it gets. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the steaming heat is like entering a hot air box, making everyone sweat profusely and rapidly dehydrated!

"Master, our water can only last for two more days at most." Chunxue said in an anxious tone.

Qiu Shuang: "People can survive without water, but horses can't go a day without water!" The cart is loaded with supplies and has to pull people, which takes a lot of energy from the horses. The weather is hot, and the horses are so thirsty that foam is forming in their mouths. If this continues, the horses will become dehydrated before them!

Shen Lanxi: "All prisoners should get off the carriage and walk. Throw away all unnecessary things on the carriage. Leave the water for the horses to drink separately!"

"Yes!"

After Chunxue went to report, the bailiffs quickly drove the prisoners off the car.

The prisoners were already hot and thirsty, and when they heard that they were asked to walk, they all complained and refused to get off the bus.

After Liu Lao Hu whipped them a few times, no matter how reluctant they were, they dared not to bring bad luck upon themselves!

"We've all gotten off the car, why doesn't he get off!" The prisoner pointed at Shen Lanxi's carriage and shouted angrily.

The other prisoners responded immediately.

"That's right. We all got off the car, so why shouldn't he get off? Our horses have no water to drink, but his horse has water to drink?"

"Yes, we must all go down together, without exception!"

Chunxue Qiushuang stamped their feet in anger!

"These ungrateful things forgot who saved them. If I had known they would bite back, I would have saved a dog instead of saving them!"

"I'll go find them!" Qiu Shuang walked over there aggressively. Before she got there, she heard Liu Lao Hu's curses and the sound of a whip.

"Do you want me to remind you that the carriages and horses originally belonged to others? You are shameless, eating, drinking and riding in the carriages for free, and now you are turning around to bite others. If people like you are not exiled, who will be exiled?"

"You should be eaten by the refugees and die of exhaustion in the mountains. If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful of the sword in my hand!"

Liu Lao Hu started to curse them, and only then did they remember that the carriage, food and water were not theirs. They felt as if their necks were being strangled. They wanted to refute, but they didn't know what to say.

Liu Lao Hu glared: "I think I have spoiled you all along, and you exiled prisoners have lived too comfortably. If you don't want to walk on the good road, you all have to push the cart for me. If anyone dares to be lazy, I will chop him up now, just to save food and water!"

This was not a solution, so Liu Yanhui, sweating profusely, hurried to find Shen Lanxi.

"Sir, the weather is too hot. If we travel like this, we will burn our energy too quickly. I suggest we rest during the day and travel at night!"

Shen Lanxi: "Sure, there's a deserted village ahead, let's go there and rest!"

Liu Yanhui stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance, but saw nothing.

How did you know that, sir?

Could it be that they were using eagles to find the way? That must be the case!

When Liu Lao Hu heard that there was a deserted village ahead and looked at the unconvinced prisoners, he couldn't suppress his anger.

"Unload the horses and let them rest. Let the prisoners push the cart!"

The yamen runners immediately went to do it. They had long disliked these prisoners. When they were escorting prisoners in the past, which prisoner dared to refute them like this?

They are all so bold and ambitious. If we don't teach them a lesson, they will have no idea how capable the Horse King is!

The prisoners complained again, and the guards were furious, worrying that they would not have a chance to punish them. When they heard them complaining, they immediately whipped them.

No matter if he’s a member of the Shen family or anyone else, beat the hell out of him!

Under the violent suppression of the yamen runners, the prisoners all became obedient on the surface, but as for what they thought in their hearts, did anyone care?

Shen Lanxi was the first to rush to the deserted village with a carriage and horses. She used the excuse of exploring the deserted village to send Chunxue and others away and feed the horses with water!

These horses are now the main labor force. Without them to pull supplies, these people will still die!

People can be thirsty, but horses can’t!

In order to avoid suspicion, each horse was only fed half a bucket of water. Before Haruyuki and the others came back, the buckets were cleaned of any water stains!

The deserted village is not that dilapidated, and most of the houses are semi-new. However, because no one lives here, it looks empty and desolate, without a single blade of grass or tree. It is obvious that they have been pulled out by the villagers who originally lived here as food!

"Sir, there is no one in the village. The wells are all dry and cracked. We checked several houses and found no food. The people in this village must have all fled the famine!"

Shen Lanxi: "Clean up two rooms!"

"Yes!"

Not long after the room was cleaned up, Liu Lao Hu arrived with the prisoners.

The prisoners were clamoring for water, which made Liu Lao Hu whip them a few more times before he went to find Shen Lanxi!

Mother Li had already prepared the meal. Because there was no water, she prioritized water conservation. She only prepared a few slices of baked steamed buns, a few slices of grilled meat, two pickles, and a bowl of water.

When Liu Lao Hu arrived, Shen Lanxi was putting pickles into her steamed buns, taking a bite of the bun and sip of water, without showing any disgust at all.

He is a rough man and can't say nice things, but he just thinks that a young man like this is more convincing!
