Chapter 136: Poor My Country and My People

Chapter 136: Poor Our Country and People

Although the Taolin gold mine is the flesh of Wang Shichong's heart, in Wang Shichong's heart, the Taolin gold mine is much more important than the five thousand soldiers. However, in Wang Xuanqiong's view, no matter how heavy the gold mine is, it is not as important as his own life. As Wang Xuanqiong cried and shouted for surrender, the battle that began suddenly and ended quickly finally stopped.

The surviving Zheng Jun soldiers looked at the battlefield like purgatory with lingering fear.

More than a thousand Zheng army soldiers were killed in just a few breaths, and even a complete corpse could not be found. There were broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, and various organs of the human body were everywhere.

Especially the closer he got to the direction of the Zheng army camp, it was really miserable. Although a Zheng army soldier who had been cut off from his waist was not dead, he crawled towards the camp in fear, and the blood even sprinkled a bloody path of about ten meters like a mop. The war ended directly. Although the soldier was not dead, he was already scared crazy.

In fact, it is not only the Zheng army soldiers that are not suitable, but even many soldiers who surrendered from the Zheng army have become very uncomfortable. Even if they were heavy infantry before, they can slaughter the enemy one-sidedly, but killing with axe and killing with a Modao are two completely different concepts.

Killing people with an axe is amazing, it is to cut off the head. At least there is still a human body, but Modao kills people and almost all of them are dismantling them. Tang soldiers saw Zheng soldiers who were plucking down their weapons and cleaning the battlefield with great enthusiasm.

With Wang Xuanqiong's surrender, Chen Ying thought he could successfully take over the thirteen gold mines controlled by Wang Shichong in Taolin. However, what Chen Ying thought was too simple. When Chen Ying had just arrived at the Gold Mine in Wushan, he saw a ragged boy running barefoot on the ice, and he didn't even bother to be frozen.

Chen Ying was surprised to see this scene.

Seeing this, Asunasmo stood on the war horse and chased the running boy. However, the speed of the boy was very amazing. With the help of the steep slopes and cliffs, not only did he not make Asunasmo chase him tighter, but the distance became farther and farther.

If Asuna Smoo did not chase him, he would run away. But if the young man ran away at this time, Asuna Smoo would not have to see anyone.

Seeing the young man running up the mountain more and more, although the war horse under Asuna Smore could climb the gentle slope, he could not climb the mountain. Asuna Smore could no longer feel irritated, and he also made a ruthless move, jumped off the war horse and chased after it on foot.

Chen Ying looked at the boy who was running like flying on the steep uphill, and an unusual look appeared on his face. When the boy was running out of the formation just now, Chen Ying once noticed that the boy was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he was so flexible. Isn’t he a natural mountain scout?

Seeing a stick of incense, the boy was like a monkey, running back and forth on the smooth hillside. Asanosmo's patience had been lost, and Asanosmo picked up a bow and arrow from behind and was about to shoot.

Chen Ying said: "Catch the living!"

Upon hearing this, Asunasmo hurriedly put his bow and arrow, put his finger in his mouth, and whistled a loud whistle.

Ashinasmo's yellow horse ran to Ashinasmo like a gust of wind. Ashinasmo quickly picked up a roll of rope from the backpack next to the horse's neck.

After all, the boy was too thin and weak. At the beginning, he could still rely on his flexibility to get rid of Asanosmo's entanglement. However, as time went by, his speed began to slow down. However, although it was a little slow, the distance between Asanosmo and him gradually decreased from more than 150 steps to more than thirty steps.

At this moment, Asunasmo suddenly took action, threw out a rope cover, and accurately hit the running boy. He stretched out his hand and pulled the boy and made the boy fall to the ground. The boy struggled desperately, but he could no longer escape Asunasmo's control.

Chen Ying was also surprised when he saw this scene: "This set is so accurate, then forget it, this pulling force is probably not a few hundred pounds!"

After all, the young man was not dragged and slid on the ground, but flew backward towards Asunasmo like a cloud and fog.

In order to capture the boy, Ashinasmo was not only in a dirt, but almost lost face. He raised his fist and was about to punch him, but found that two fierce lights like wolves burst out from the boy's eyes.

Asuna Smoo was particularly impressed by such eyes. Asuna Smoo was nine years old, once he was riding a horse to chase a hare, but accidentally left a single one and was targeted by a wolves. At that time, the wolves looked at him with this look and walked around the edge of death. Asuna Smoo was very familiar with such eyes.

Asunasmo's fist did not fall on the boy's head in the end, because he found that the boy's arms, back, and thighs were naked, and the crisscrossing scars were shocked.

Asuna Smo turned his fist into a palm and patted the boy's head gently: "Damn it, you're pretty good."

The boy said stubbornly: "Hmph, if I haven't eaten for three days, you can't catch up with me!"

Hearing this, Chen Ying smiled slightly: "You are not very dissatisfied, what's your name?"

When the boy saw Chen Yingyan, he thought he was not a high-ranking official, so he said carelessly: "My name is Zhou Qing. I tell you, I don't have any other skills, just run fast, just my feet can catch the baby."

"Zhou Qing?" Chen Ying was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Isn't this the leader of the eight leaders of Xue Rengui's army in the East?" Chen Ying asked, "Do you know Xue Li?"

Zhou Qing shook his head: "Who is Xue Li?"

"Where is Xue Rengui?"

Zhou Qing frowned and said, "I only know one person named Xue, named Xue Shitou."

Chen Ying shook his head, maybe this Zhou Qing was just the same name and surname. Chen Ying waved and waved to Ashinasmo and said, "Zhou Qing, you are not convinced. Please let him eat enough and compete with him!"

Asunasmo nodded and picked a dry food belt from the horse's neck, which contained about ten kilograms of fried flour. This was Chen Yingcai's marching dry food. Put the flour into a pot and stir-fry it, mix it with some bacon jerky. Just add water and eat it directly. Of course, this is to facilitate emergency dry food when cooking when not put in special times.

Zhou Qing was not polite either. He took the dry food bag and opened it and saw that it was flour. He grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his mouth. Zhou Qing swallowed it voraciously, not afraid of choking. After a while, he looked at Chen Ying in surprise: "Is there still meat?"

As he said that, he pulled out a piece of jerky from his mouth, the size of a finger.

Chen Ying said to Asuna Smoo: "Find him another pair of boots, don't freeze your feet!"

Zhou Qing knelt in front of Chen Ying with a normal voice and kowtowed three times.

...

Wang Shichong had no intention of operating the Taolin Gold Mine at all. He just wanted to mine the gold here. For the craftsmen here, they all ate worse than pigs and did more than cows. There were more than 3,000 workers in the Koshan Gold Mine, but they were actually work slaves.

Chen Ying thought that he could rescue 3,000 work slaves at one time, and was very excited. When more than 3,000 work slaves gathered, Chen Ying even made a draft and prepared to give a passionate speech to the more than 3,000 work slaves. After about half an hour, under the organization of Chen Ying's personal guard Zhechong Mansion, the more than 3,000 workers were arranged in a circle in front of a large stone that was as high as a foot in the valley of Mount Wu.

Most of these work slaves were actually official slaves under the jurisdiction of the provincial government in the former Sui Dynasty. However, after Wang Shichong replaced the former Sui Dynasty, they saw the Tang people driving away the head of the manager sent by Wang Shichong, and thought that there was only a group of new masters.

Chen Ying participated in many speeches on behalf of the school when he was a student, so he actually had some experience in speeches.

Before you open your mouth, make eye contact with these listeners so that everyone can feel that they are looking at them.

However, after Chen Yinghuan swept around, the situation in front of him poured cold water on his head. No one responded to his eager gaze. When facing the captured Han slaves of the Turks - especially the ancient town of Huaiyuan, or the soldiers of the Tang army, Chen Ying's eyes could ignite a raging flame among them!

But at this time, Chen Ying poured out all his enthusiasm through his eyes when facing these mine slaves, but he felt like a mud cow entering the sea without any reaction.

Yes, the more than 3,000 people in front of them were empty, dull, dull, lifeless eyes, but that was different from the dullness of an idiot, but a numb dullness. If the eyes were the windows of the soul, then through these two windows, Chen Ying could hardly see the existence of a soul inside.

He suddenly remembered the lower-level figures described by Lu Xun. Yes, it was just such numbness. When he walked among this group of people, Zhang Mai even had the illusion that he had walked into the group of mules and horses, not into the group.

Of course, Chen Ying did not intend to discriminate against these people. On the contrary, he came with great expectations, but at this moment, this feeling surged in his heart.

Chen Ying gave up his speech because Chen Ying discovered that no matter how well he spoke, it was undoubtedly a waste of emotion when he played the piano at a cow or a blind man.

However, Chen Ying was not desperate. He knew that to change these mine slaves, he needed to release their souls that had been imprisoned in their hearts first.

Chen Ying walked down from the tall rock, slowly walked to an old man with his teeth falling out and his hair falling out in the crowd, and asked in a low voice: "Old man, you live a long life this year, where is your hometown?"

The old man with a white gray head and a wrinkled face said timidly: "The little old man is thirty and seventeen years old this year, and his hometown is from Gaoyang!"

When Chen Ying heard this in his heart, he felt extremely incredible. The old man with gray hair and a pleated face was only thirty-seven years old.

Thirty-seven years old is at the age of a man, but he never thought that this old man would be only thirty-seven years old.

Chen Ying's whole mood became bad in an instant.
