Chapter 363
Huaipei County.

The smoke filled the air, and the flames shot up into the sky.

At this time, Dingyun County was surrounded by traces of being burned, killed and looted by the enemy, and countless people died tragically under the enemy's long sword.

A flock of crows landed on the bones and pecked open the belly of the corpse with their hard beaks, exposing the bright red internal organs inside.

Once the fresh internal organs are pulled out, more crows will be attracted to compete for food. It is summer now, and the corpses will rot and emit a strong stench after being exposed to high temperatures for a few days.

The whole Huaipei was surrounded by a strong breath of death, the picture was so bleak that even God couldn't bear to see it, a light rain poured down, as if it wanted to wash away the sins of the world.

When Feng Wuxie arrived at Huaipei, he was shocked by what he saw on the road. Although he knew that the Tartars were brutal, he could only know how tragic it was when he saw it with his own eyes.

But now Feng Wuxie has no time to pay attention to these things, she must rush to Dingyun as soon as possible, return to Jun Yeli's side, and fight the enemy together with him.

After five consecutive days of running around, Feng Wuxie was haggard. Looking at Huaipei who was right in front of her eyes, she smiled sincerely.

Jun Yeli, I'm finally here.

"Lao Jia, hurry up, if you delay the time, you and I will lose our lives." Someone spoke not far away.

Feng Wuxie was startled, and hastily reined in her horse and hid in the bushes. This place is close to the border of Huaipei. She must have encountered soldiers traveling by accident.

Through the bushes, several carriages transporting food and grass were parked in the distance, and some soldiers in Huns' costumes were slowly moving forward.

It can be seen that their equipment is not sophisticated, and there are only a dozen or so people who actually carry weapons.

"Come right now, come right away." There was a rustling sound, and a soldier appeared not far in front of him. After looking around, he began to untie his pants.

Feng Wuxie hastily turned around, and waited quietly, wanting to wait until he finished his convenience before going out.

At this moment, a bold idea formed in her mind.

When the sound of rushing water above his head disappeared, Feng Wuxie threw out the silver ingot in his hand.

"What's going on?" The soldier muttered softly, poked his head down, and saw the silver ingot in the forest, his eyes widened immediately.

"Huh? Silver."

At this time, the soldiers over there began to urge again: "Lao Jia, are you alright?"

"Hey, hey, here we come, here we come." The man named Lao Jia walked slowly down while perfunctory.

It's just that he didn't take two steps down when a pair of white hands grabbed his calf violently.

The rain-drenched mountain was very slippery. Before he could cry out in surprise, a dagger cut his throat. Blood kept overflowing from his throat, and the spirit in his eyes slowly disappeared until the pupils were completely dizzy.

Feng Wuxie exhaled slowly, dragged the soldier's body to a hidden place, changed into his clothes, and walked out slowly.

The muddy ground was rolled into deep ravines by heavy grain carts, and a team of Huns were pushing the carts with great effort.

After the grain carts in front passed by, the road became even more muddy, and the last cart got stuck here, and no matter how hard it was pushed, it remained motionless.

When Feng Wuxie walked out, this was what he saw.

"Why are you still standing there, hurry up and push the cart, if it's late, General Tuoba's whip is not a vegetarian." A sharp-eyed soldier spotted her, and hurriedly called Feng Wuxie to come and push the cart together.

Feng Wuxie hurriedly responded in a low voice, walked over with his head down, and pushed the cart with everyone, but the wheels were too sunken, and the cart was too heavy, the three of them alone were not strong enough .

Just as he was thinking about how to push the car out, Feng Wuxie received a heavy whip on his body, and the burning pain immediately filled his entire back.

She gasped in pain, gritted her teeth and stood up, and when she turned her head, she saw a man who looked like a leader, yelling at them.

"Haven't you eaten yet? Use some strength, damn it, push hard."

While speaking, the whip had already hit like raindrops.

Feng Wuxie dodged in embarrassment, but his body was still bloody from the beating. Looking at the other two people, they also had an expression of resentment towards the leader.

The whip fell again in the wind, Feng Wuxie turned around and grabbed the whip, a bloodstain was made on the back of her hand, she looked at the person behind her with cold and terrifying eyes.

"stop."

A cold voice sounded, Feng Wuxie glared at the man with the whip, and greeted him without fear.

Zhao Jun didn't expect that he would be drunk by a small soldier, and he was so angry that he raised his whip and was about to whip Feng Wuxie.

"My lord, wait a minute." Feng Wuxie pointed to the wheels stuck in the mud and said, "I have a way, push the car out."

"What? You have a solution?" Zhao Jun squinted his eyes, looking at the inconspicuous little man in front of him, and he didn't know what was wrong. He was obviously very ordinary, but just now he was coldly shouted at by him. I was intimidated.

He put away the whip in his hand, and said in a neutral tone: "If you can't push it out, see how the commander punishes you."

Feng Wuxie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that he had put away his whip and stopped beating others, so he told the other two soldiers.

"Let's go get some firewood."

The two soldiers were very thin, and they looked like they were only thirteen or fourteen years old. Originally, this kind of leader soldier had no place in the barracks, and anyone would call him around.

Now that they heard Feng Wuxie talking to them, they obediently went to pick up some wooden sticks, and according to Feng Wuxie's instructions, lined them up and stuffed them under the wheels.

Feng Wuxie didn't stop until the wooden stick came out of the muddy water. She looked at the two soldiers and said, "Come on, try again."

Everyone didn't know what she was trying to sell. Seeing what she said, they worked hard together, and with the cooperation of the coachman in front, they dragged the carriage out of the muddy water all at once.

Zhao Jun didn't expect this kid to have such abilities, so he rode up to Feng Wuxie, pointed at her nose with a whip and said, "I will forgive you this time, but if there is a next time, I will definitely not forgive you." .”

After finishing speaking, he rode a horse past Feng Wuxie's eyes, and chased the grain cart in front of him.

After Zhao Jun had gone far away, the little soldier just now tugged at Feng Wuxie's sleeve timidly, and said nervously, "Brother Jia, what's wrong with you today? Why are you fighting Master Zhao?" ? They are not something we can provoke."

"Then we can't just let him beat us." Touching the welt on his arm, Feng Wuxie frowned in pain.

Looking at the little man's body, there are welts all over his body, I really don't know how he survived.

"Xiao Xu, let's go quickly." Another soldier said.

"Hey." It turned out that his name was Xiao Xu, Feng Wuxie raised his eyebrows, inexplicably having a good impression of this timid little boy.

Several people went on the road again, this time without Zhao Jun's supervision, the three of them walked very comfortably.

Feng Wuxie discovered that Xiao Xu had just joined the army. When he laughed, his brows and eyes turned into crescent moons. His bronze skin made him not look like a man, but a bit like soybean sprouts.

"When the war is over and I go home, I'll buy a herd of cattle and sheep for my mother." Xiao Xu said while pushing the heavy grain truck, his slender arms and legs could not be covered by his loose robe.

Speaking of going home, Xiao Xu's brows and eyes lit up, he turned his head, looked at Feng Wuxie, and showed a row of white teeth: "Brother Jia, what about you, what are your plans?"

Feng Wuxie was stunned by his question, did she have any plans, but she couldn't tell Xiao Xu, so she had to make up a random reason and prevaricate it.

"same as you."

The two of them were talking, but the soldier poured cold water on them: "Go home? Just dream, maybe one day, our corpses will appear in the wild and be eaten up by wild dogs."

Liang Zi pointed to the pile of bones piled up under the mountain ridge, and smiled mockingly: "Xiao Xu, if there is such a day, brother, I beg you to do something."

Although he was used to seeing dead people, it was still too heavy for Xiao Xu. He closed his eyes, not daring to look at those bones.

"Liangzi, what's the matter?"

"Set a fire and burn me clean. I don't want to be eaten by those wild dogs." As if he knew his fate, Liang Zi faced death with a calmness, or numbness.

From the moment they joined the army, they already knew their fate. If they could escape this war, what about the next time?What about next time?
Xiao Xu glanced at the corpses with some fear, closed his eyes and nodded, then shook his head again: "No, we won't, we won't die."

For a while, everyone fell into this heavy topic, and the soldier named Liang Zi glanced at the corpses.

He said bitterly, "If I could choose, I wouldn't want to fight at all."

Right now there are only the three of them here, but after Liang Zi said these words, Xiao Xu was still startled, he quickly covered his mouth, and said in a panic: "You don't want to say these words anymore, this is a The crime of beheading."

Those who shake the morale of the army will be beheaded.

This is the rule of every military camp, Feng Wuxie of course understands it.

But instead of accepting Xiao Xu's affection, Liang Zi knocked off his hand and said impatiently: "It means you are timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and there are no outsiders here, so I can say what I want."

He looked angry, like a child who hadn't grown up: "Why do you insist on us joining the army? If we don't come, they will increase taxes. It's even worse than those wild dogs."

Hearing Liang Zi's words, Xiao Xu's head drooped even lower, and he whispered, "I'm the only seedling in my family, but I'm still here..."

Hearing what the two of them said, Feng Wuxie began to worry. The people only wanted to live in peace and security, but those in power disrupted their peace.

With the city gate close at hand, Feng Wuxie's mood became more and more excited. As long as she managed to sneak into the city, her plan would take a step forward.

"Stop, routine inspection." The guarding soldiers in front stepped forward, surrounded Feng Wuxie and his party, and pointed their sharp knives at them.
