Chapter 82 Miniatures

Xu Lei, who was so painful about the fall, saw that Li Ruixin had turned over and dismounted, and came with the oar in his hand and feet. He quickly retreated backwards with his hands and feet, and said at the same time: "Brother Li, everything in the past is wrong with my younger brother, but my mother-in-law and Qian'er are still waiting for me to go home. You can let me go."

Hearing this, Li Ruixin was stunned. After a while, he left his oar and walked straight to Xu Lei, grabbed his collar and pressed it on the tree beside the road.

"What did you say?!"

Li Ruixin was not short at all, and he even grabbed Xu Lei's collar and pressed it on the trunk. It was a pity that Xu Lei was far from Li Ruixin. He was restrained like this again, and his feet were already off the ground. If there was not a trunk behind him to rely on, he would have been strangled to death in the air if he didn't do it well.

Hearing Li Ruixin's shouting and looking at the eyes of his eyes, Xu Lei quickly explained, hating that his parents would not have a few mouths for him, for fear that if he was slower, he would be chewed by the big worm in front of him.

It turned out that the mother-in-law and Qian'er he mentioned were actually Li Ruixin's mother and young sister. Huang Degong died, and Tian Xiong and Ma Degong held Emperor Hongguang to the Qing Dynasty. In the chaos, Li Ruixin's father and elder brother were all killed in battle. Even he suffered a great injury and was lucky enough to escape, but he was separated from his family. After the injury healed, Li Ruixin had visited many places, but at that time, the war was in chaos and the communication technology was backward, so he finally lost all news.

But what Li Ruixin didn't know was that as Tian Xiong's confidant, Xu Lei's uncle Xu Xin also surrendered to the Qing Dynasty at that time, so the old camp that Xu Xin was in charge at that time fell into Tian Xiong's hands.

Li Ruixin's eldest sister-in-law heard that her husband died in battle and committed suicide. Xu Lei was salivating at the Li family's younger sister back then. It was just because the two families had a grudge against the enemy when they encircled the bandits that year, so naturally it was impossible to marry her home. This time, the Li family's men died for their country and disappeared, so Xu Lei brought Li Ruixin's mother and younger sister to the home. Later, he saw that the surviving Li Ruixin never came to him, and even forced the Li family's younger sister to be a concubine.

There are the most common stories of couples in ancient China that are loving and respecting each other. Unfortunately, Xu Lei, who is used to being arrogant, is obviously not such a kind of elegant person, and his identity as a concubine. The Li family’s younger sister has nowhere to come out in two years, so she immediately changed from a goddess to an "old hen that cannot lay eggs". Her status in the Xu family also plummeted. What Xu Lei said about waiting for him to go home was actually just an old mother in the family and a rough maid in the kitchen.

In fact, the experience of the Li girl is not bad in the current chaotic world. Although she is not married, she has at least a place to live, which is better than the days of being a slave and a prostitute like others. However, even if she borrows his eighty courage in front of Li Ruixin, he would never dare to say that.

"Brother Li knows that I have always loved Qian'er. I won't mention the incident of being frivolous when I was young. Later, Duke Jingguo died. I was afraid that my mother-in-law and Qian'er would suffer, so I took it to my home. If it weren't for Tian Xiong's dog thief who repeatedly claimed that Brother Li's family was a traitor who opposed the Qing court, they should not be the wife. With my brother's friendship with Qian'er, I would never be a concubine..."

From the benefactor to the dog thief, Tian Xiong's identity has completed the transformation from heaven to earth in Xu Lei's mouth, and it is always better than Li Rong's end.

Li Ruixin, who had not been heard from for many years, was really scared by Li Ruixin, who was beaten by Li Ruixin for several months because he was drunk and teased Jinxiang's young sister. In addition, the scene of Chen Wen leading the army to advance in the artillery fire, really shocked him so much that he had the act of betraying Li Rong in extreme fear in order to escape.

However, after this Qing army was defeated, Xu Lei didn't know how many people who knew the situation in his family fell into Chen Wen's hands. If he was still brought over by Li Ruixin, if the lies were exposed, he would be afraid that with Li Ruixin's temperament, Xu Lei would die happily.

"Although it is a concubine, I can share the same beauty as my wife at my younger family. There has never been a difference between food and clothing. Even my mother-in-law also carries filial piety at home. When I don't go to the battle, I will bow every day, and I will not dare to forget it for a day..."

Xu Lei's words were not true, but he just bit him to respect Li Ruixin's mother and was very affectionate with the Li family's younger sister. This was just to let Li Ruixin let him have a way out. Unfortunately, the Li family's younger sister had nothing to do, otherwise the effect would be better if she said a nephew or a niece.

"Although still alive, mom, little sister, you are still alive..."

When Li Ruixin, who was immersed in the joy of reunion of the family, was suddenly let go of Xu Lei's hands, and when Xu Lei's feet touched the ground again, he also sat down on the ground.

Li Ruixin was no longer prepared for this time, but for Xu Lei, Li Ruixin did not dare to act rashly, whether it was the martial spirit he showed back then or just now. It would be best if he could convince this person at this moment. If he couldn't convince him, the outlaw general of the Ming army would have spared him for the sake of Li Ruixin, which would be better than being killed by Li Ruixin if he failed the sneak attack.

Seeing that Li Ruixin was already immersed in family affection, Xu Lei immediately revealed his intentions. "Brother Li, there are only you and me here. My mother-in-law and Qian'er are still waiting for me to go home. After I go back, I can also tell them the news of Brother Li's life. There will always be a time to meet in the future. If I can't go back, I'm afraid..."

Hearing Xu Lei's words, Li Ruixin also reacted from his dazed state, and his eyes gradually became deeper.

At the same time, the part of the soldiers who were pursuing the Qing army rushed back. After checking their captures, Chen Wen began to count the spoils.

The soldiers of Nantang Camp here have all returned to the team except those who were guarding Fran's cannon. Only Li Ruixin did not come back. However, with this person's bravery, Chen Wen was very relieved.

So far, this battle has been unfavorable to escape by relying on the terrain. Nantang Camp has captured nearly a thousand Qing troops, including combat soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, and even some officers from the Extra Biao Battalion, who almost all participated in the battle. The biggest gain was Li Rong, the deputy general of the Extra Biao Battalion who had always commanded his subordinates and did not participate in the battle.

The commander of the first army was captured. Chen Wen couldn't believe his ears when he heard the news. However, after being excited, he couldn't get any interest in this guy. The Ming army was defeated in Siming Lake, and the people who were captured with the habit of the Qing army were probably unfortunate. At this moment, there were many Ming army members who were always in the grief of losing their relatives along the way. Therefore, the fate of the deputy general of the Extraordinary Battalion was already destined. For Chen Wen, who had not yet developed the habit of capitalists chasing surplus value, the temptation of the supplies carried by the Qing army seemed much greater.

"You guys, I took off all my clothes..."

None of the Qing army's baggage trucks ran away. The messy military supplies such as cotton coats, bedding, gunpowder, arrows, projectiles, etc. were all cheaper. Chen Wen. The cavalry who rushed back also told Chen Wen that the Qing army had two Fran cannons and some other spoils on the road, and some cavalry were escorting the gunners and auxiliary soldiers to get the spoils over.

Upon hearing this news, Chen Wen felt very glad. Fran machine cannons, the cannons of the mother-and-child guns. Although they have to wait for a long time to continue firing after the guns are used up, those few guns are enough for the opponent to drink a pot. Fortunately, this thing is relatively bulky. The speed of advances on the "flat road" he made by the engineer team is extremely slow, and he cannot catch up with the rapid advance Qing army, otherwise the loss of the Ming army just now would be greater.

After the end of this battle, all the captured armor and weapons were thrown on the empty car that the Qing army was preparing to load the spoils. Thinking of Li Rong's noble behavior of delivering goods to his door, Chen Wen suddenly felt that this Qing army general seemed to be not as he had imagined.

Although these armors are mostly damaged and many of the weapons are damaged, it is still a small supplement for Nantangying, which can only barely equip half of the Yuanyang Formation Killer Team. However, when I think of the fact that there is not much silver in the seized spoils, the little bit of favor that Li Rong had just established in Chen Wen's heart immediately disappeared.

Li Rong, don’t you know that a soldier who is in the throne camp will receive fifteen taels of silver?

Li Rong, don’t you know that the officers of the Biaobao Battalion will increase the reward for beheadings?

Li Rong, don’t you know that Nantang Camp defeated your Lubiao Zuoying with less victory and more in this battle, and I want to give you a reward?

I don’t have the experience of having sex with you for many years without having as many common sense as you have been in charge of soldiers. Isn’t it?

If the pension for casualties and the new benefits of the soldiers in the planned camp, Chen Wen suddenly found that the old camp bank bank that had just fallen into his pocket seemed not enough, especially as these silvers had to support the remaining troops of the Dalanshan old camp to survive until next year, Chen Wen would not be angry, and he just wanted to whip Li Rong to vent his anger.

Since there is no silver in the large amount of money, it can only accumulate a lot. Chen Wen is preparing to attack these prisoners and the corpses of the Qing army. Although these Qing soldiers have not been robbed for a long time, there should be some rewards from the battle between them before the Battle of Siming Lake, and they just thought they had to buy their lives with money.

However, Chen Wen's order to ask the prisoners to take off their clothes was still subjected to some resistance. In the eyes of these prisoners, this was a sign that Chen Wen was preparing to kill the prisoners. He asked them to take off their clothes because they were afraid that their blood would dirty their clothes.

Even though the soldiers holding weapons in Nantang Camp were in front of them, the prisoners still chose to use reasons such as "soldiers can be killed but not humiliated", and more of them simply knelt down and beg for mercy and cried bitterly. In short, the words and deeds of these nearly a thousand prisoners formed a sentence: If you don't take it away, you won't take it away!

In this regard, Chen Wen had to say that he was "robbing money but not robbing sex". Now he asked them to take off their clothes just to check whether there were any prohibited items such as daggers, knives, gold, silver ingots, copper coins, jewelry, antiques, multiple turrets, steam tanks, Zeppelin airships and so on. As for their heads, they were too expensive, Chen Wen, the "poor party", had no interest in this.

All the good things were said, but what he got was still passive resistance in a silent way. Since this was the case, Chen Wen turned against him and immediately said that as long as he did not take off his clothes, he would be the enemy of the Ming army, and there was only one way to die. At the same time, he also took the countdown to increase the urgency of these prisoners.

Listening to the fewer numbers, fewer and fewer prisoners who continued to choose to resist negatively, even Chen Wen started to take off his clothes after counting halfway.

"No wonder I'm going to be a traitor for the Qing Dynasty. It's just a word, it's cheap!"

After complaining, Chen Wen ordered the temporary auxiliary troops who did not take care of the wounded to investigate the prisoners' property under the surveillance of the tutors and return the clothes to them, and throw all the valuable things into those empty baskets.

When they found that the clothes were returned to them, the Qing army prisoners seemed to be relieved. In so many years of troubled times, the generals who had plucked their hair to this point had no habit of returning the things they had. Based on this common sense, they felt that their fate had been saved and they did not dare to show any dissatisfaction with the behavior of taking away other property from them.

The armor and weapons had already been loaded onto a large cart. As the baskets were filled one by one, the prisoners who had completed the body search work had already started to put on their clothes. At this moment, Zhang Jun, who assisted in the supervision, ran over with something.

"General, what is this?"

From the first glance of seeing that thing, Chen Wen was attracted by its unique shape and material. He saw that the thing was rectangular and flattened, which could be put into the pocket or briefcase of his previous clothes, and would hardly take up too much place.

After taking the thing tremblingly, Chen Wen felt the touch from his fingers. The familiar feeling immediately evoked his memory from a long time ago, especially when he noticed that there was a trace of the thing that was obviously falling on the ground and smashing into it, which made him feel mixed.

power bank!

How could this power bank sold by him as a paperweight here?!

Looking at the edge of the groove of the USB interface that seemed to be dry and bloody, Chen Wen immediately realized what was going on.

It was one day at the end of June. After relied on the Bafa of Yong to play a guest appearance in a farmer's home, Chen Wen used this power bank, which was claimed to be a paperweight in his family, to exchange for dry food for one day, and embarked on the road to Dalan Mountain.

To this day, he still remembers the joy that the boy showed when he rubbed the smooth surface of the power bank when he got the power bank, and the look of comfort when his parents watched it all.

Those bloodstains should be theirs!
