I’m The King Chapter 642: : Hope


Dong Zhuang sat in front of a long table, looking at the two white-faced steamed buns and a bowl of steaming hot mutton soup in front of him, he couldn't help being a little dazed, and the one with the same expression was sitting with him Dozens of strong men who came from afar were soldiers of the standing army who were captured after the First World War in Yuyang County. "

Dong Zhuang traveled thousands of miles, and the more he traveled, the colder Dong Zhuang's heart became. He didn't know where the Zhengdong Army was going to send them. Anyway, the weather was getting colder and colder. Fortunately, the Zhengdong Army seemed to be prepared for this. , On the way, they changed into the cotton-padded clothes of the Eastern Army. Along the way, they saw more and more Hu people, and there were also a large number of Hu people in the army escorting them, which made many people feel even more worried. Uneasy, when they were trained in the army, they had been indoctrinated with the news that General Gao Yuan of Zhengdong colluded with the Hu people, and the scene they saw confirmed these people's views.

Most of them came from the mainland of Yan. They knew nothing about the border areas of Liaoxi and Hejian. Could it be that they were sold to Hu people as slaves?

There are not a few people who hold this idea, so there are many accidents on the way, and some people try to escape.

Although they were prisoners, the Zhengdong Army did not strictly control them, and no one specifically guarded them. This created opportunities for those people, but Dong Zhuang was unmoved. The general of the Zhengdong Army It seems that a very senior general once told him that as long as he can go to that place for three years, he will be allowed to come and go freely. Dong Zhuang doesn't think it is necessary for such a big man to deceive such a small **** like him Well. So he was still at ease, although he was getting farther and farther away from home, and he couldn't say that he was not afraid, but when he thought of the three-year period, his heart became hot again, and now he didn't have the idea of ​​being promoted, getting rich, and honoring his ancestors. I just hope that after three years, I can return to my hometown safely and serve my elders for a hundred years, which is considered my filial piety.

So when someone hooked him up to escape together, he flatly refused. Not only did he refuse, he also tried his best to prevent the hundred soldiers he led from participating, because Dong Zhuang's performance was outstanding, and he fought against the enemy on the battlefield. Ye Zhen had an exchange, and all this guy was appointed to manage a hundred prisoners of war soldiers.

It turns out. Dong Zhuang's caution is justified.

A total of thirty-eight escapees were all caught and brought back at noon the next day. No, they should have been dragged back. They were tied behind the tails of horses, and they were already dying when they were dragged in front of them. .

Then, there is no more, these people. He was beheaded.

The dripping blood frightened everyone, and no one tried to escape again, in this flat, open place. Even if you are allowed to run for a day first, the cavalry can search for your traces in a very short period of time, and then capture you back.

Dong Zhuang originally thought that he would return to his old career from now on. He had become a farmer, but when he arrived in Pioneer City, he found out by accident. There was an atmosphere of impending war here, as if he still wanted to be a soldier.

However, the food here is really amazing. Even when they were training in Jicheng, they only ate black-faced buns, and they could see meat once every seven or eight days, but that was already amazing for them treatment. But now, they were prisoners of war, but they ate white flour steamed buns and mutton soup, such a big sea bowl, and the aroma from the fat mutton bone inside made Dong Zhuang swallow involuntarily.

In fact, it wasn't just him. In the big cafeteria, the sound of swallowing saliva was continuous.

Drool, but no one dares to take it, because they have learned too many rules along the way, and they can only move their mouths after the official orders. Otherwise, you will be whipped.

A man walked across from him, Dong Zhuang raised his head, and saw an officer escorting them along the way, he called this man the company commander from the Eastern Army soldiers.

He didn't know what kind of official the company commander was, but this person was assigned to the centurion under his jurisdiction to be in charge of supervision, so the two of them knew each other very well, and Dong Zhuang knew that this person was called Fu Xiao.

"Company Commander Fu!" He stood up abruptly, looked at the two large bowls in Fu Xiao's hands, and couldn't help being startled, because the food in the other party's hands was exactly the same as the one in front of him.

"Sit, sit!" Fu Xiao smiled and sat in front of him, looking at Dong Zhuang, "During this journey, you saved me a lot of worry. You have contributed a lot to this company without any trouble."

"This is due to Company Commander Fu!" Dong Zhuang said in a low voice.

"Don't be confined like this." Fu Xiao smiled and waved his hands, "As you can see, we are going to fight here soon, so we will no longer be managers and prisoners of war, and we will all be colleagues from now on. Here, only the people from Zhengdong Mansion and Donghu people are distinguished, and you, as people from Zhengdong Mansion, naturally have to work hard with Donghu people, otherwise, no one will survive.”

"I'm not afraid of war!" Dong Zhuang puffed up his chest, "But, aren't we prisoners?"

"From now on, you are soldiers!" Fu Xiao said, "You are also soldiers of our Eastern Army. A soldier from the Eastern Mansion."

"Apprentice period?" Dong Zhuang asked suspiciously.

"Yeah!" Fu Xiao nodded, "Originally, you were on a three-year apprenticeship period. During this period, the food was full and the esophagus was warm, but there was no salary to be paid. But now that the war broke out, this period will be shortened. Yes. In fact, like you, I was also a prisoner of war before. I was from Hejian County. I was captured after a battle with the Eastern Conqueror Army. An official soldier of the East Army.”

Dong Zhuang was shocked, can a prisoner of war also become an officer of the East Conquest Army?

Seeing Dong Zhuang's expression, Fu Xiao smiled, "After you become an official soldier of the East Conquest Army, you will understand that in this army, no matter your background, as long as you have military exploits, you You can rise up step by step, no one dares to make things difficult for you, there are special military judges in the army, and record everyone's military exploits. With your ability, as long as you dare to work hard, you will definitely be like me in the future, maybe even stronger than me."

"How dare you compare with Company Commander Fu!" Dong Zhuang shook his head again and again. Although his face was humble, his heart was full of enthusiasm. He had been with Company Commander Fu for more than a month, and Dong Zhuang knew him very well. Well, if it is about personal bravery, the two company commanders combined are not my opponent, and he can be the company commander, so can I be higher?

"Dong Zhuang, I have carefully observed you along the way. You are also a simple and honest person. Let me tell you a piece of news. The First Army is selecting a group of elite soldiers and preparing to form a special brigade. I have already I have signed up, if you are interested, I can help you sign up, if you can be selected, you will immediately become an official soldier and receive the treatment of an official soldier."

"I am willing to participate!" Dong Zhuang immediately said, anyway, he is a soldier fighting in battle, where he can't do it, if he joins this special brigade, he can immediately get rid of the ugly word "captive" on his body, why didn't he do it?

Fu Xiao smiled, "Think about this first. Going to the special brigade is going to risk your life. It's much more dangerous than ordinary soldiers. You prisoners of war will be assigned to guard the city first. In this way, the danger of death is greatly reduced, and to participate in this special brigade, you have to go out of the city to fight. Facing the Donghu cavalry, death will come at any time. Of course, high returns are of course accompanied by risks. As long as you can come back alive, you will be promoted, of course."

"I did it!" Dong Zhuang nodded firmly, "If you can get a good future if you take a little risk, why don't I do it, it's not dangerous to defend the city, you are really going to die, maybe on the top of the city I slipped and fell and fell to my death, but I am not qualified to sign up, so I ask Company Commander Fu for help."

"Okay, as long as you are willing, I am willing to apply for you. I believe the general leading the team will like a guy like you." Fu Xiao nodded and smiled.

Dong Zhuang was still about to ask for more details. Suddenly, a short horn sounded from far away from the cafeteria. Take out the bones with fat mutton, eat a steamed bun, gnaw a bite of mutton, chew a few times, then lean down to the sea bowl to drink a mouthful of delicious mutton soup~IndoMTL.com~Slow down! Seeing Dong Zhuang gobbling it up, Fu Xiao couldn't help laughing, "The food here has always been like this. From now on, if you eat like this every day, you will get tired of it. The soldiers stationed in this vanguard city are looking forward to eating some every day." The **** vegetable is like looking forward to something, this mutton is not a good thing here.”

"Meat is not a good thing?" Dong Zhuang's eyes widened, "When I was at home, I couldn't eat meat a few times a year. Do you mean that you can eat meat every day?"

"Of course, I can eat meat every day!" Hearing Dong Zhuang's words, Fu Xiao couldn't help feeling a little sour in his heart. The family members in the countryside of Hejian heard that the new policy of enforcing the East Mansion has already started to be implemented there, or the life of the family members should be much better. After all, I have not been home for four full years. I don't know how many more gray hairs I added, did my younger brother grow taller, and my younger sister is already married? If a boy who married his younger sister dared to bully his younger sister, when he returned home, he would beat him until his mother couldn't even recognize him.

Of course Fu Xiao didn't know, when he was thinking this way, Dong Zhuang couldn't help but think of the guy, he ate more and more slowly, his eyes were red, he was captured, his family would think he was dead Right? (To be continued!
