Can''t help, the woman''s eyes fell on the flag with the character of Tang. In a trance, she seemed to see something different.
"Mother, I''m afraid."
On the chaotic street, the little girl timidly pulled the woman''s foot, and her eyes looked at the soldiers passing by, showing fear and uneasiness.
"Well behaved, mother is here, don''t be afraid."
The woman put her hands around her daughter. Her black hair was stained with dust and adhered to her face full of sweat. Her body trembled slightly. The soldiers in the street made her fear instinctively.
Over the years, she has seen too many wars.
The canghuan realm has never been a peaceful place, where the princes from all sides fight with each other, and the dynasties disappear in a flash, leaving endless smoke and desolation.
She will never forget how her father, elder brother and younger brother died miserably, how her husband was forced into the army, and how she treated the losers after every war.
Massacre, plunder, burn.
She had seen the soldiers break into other people''s houses and kill people at will, and then treat the women''s deeds.
At that time, she was still young, it was difficult to understand what kind of power could make a person become such a beast.
She clearly remembers the despairing eyes of the women who were insulted. Every time the soldiers left, there would always be women who were pregnant with children who didn''t know their father. Some of them chose to die, while those who survived would always live in humiliation.
Of course, those who can choose life are lucky, and those who are less lucky have come to the end of their lives as early as those who are just like animals.
If she could, she would choose to forget it all.
In fact, after Zhao Kuangyin took over Bianliang City, this kind of thing had not happened for a long time. As a powerful Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin''s army was invincible.
Although they have high taxes and heavy penalties, at least they will not do anything to rob the women of the people. At least, they will not do that on the surface.
But today, Bianliang city once again changed its master, which is a strange thing, but the fact is in front of us.
The people in Bianliang City automatically walk out of their houses and quietly watch the army of the Tang Dynasty pass by. This is what the losers should do. Only in this way, maybe the winners will have some mercy and leave some things for them to let go of their lives.
Once upon a time, there was a cruel army, where life was destroyed and nothing was left. This is the reality of the dark world. This kind of behavior has become a rule.
In the street, women and children stand at the front.
Since ancient times, women have been the best tributes at this time. There are very few, or never has an army ever spared women in a city.
And for most people, it might be a good deal to sacrifice women to save their property.
In troubled times, people''s lives are not as good as dogs, and women are nothing more.
Even a teenage girl may have known her fate, sobbing silently.
"Jun, Jun Ye."
All of a sudden, a guy who looked like a general stopped his horse''s hooves and looked at the mother and daughter standing next to him.
instinctively, the mother protected her child behind her and said in fear.
The people around them are looking at all this indifferently.
In their eyes, the mother and daughter are quite beautiful. Such existence has always been the favorite thing of dignitaries and dignitaries. The young married mother and the budding little and lovely daughter.
It''s luck that they didn''t become forbidden to some people at other times. I''m afraid they are doomed when they meet the soldiers who capture the city. It''s estimated that they will be given as playthings to some senior officials, or to some powerful people in the Tang Dynasty, or become playthings for these soldiers.
In a word, their fate has already been predestined.
But no one came forward to say anything, this is their destiny.
The desperate mother looked at the general who turned over and dismounted. She almost knelt down. She wanted to run away. She even thought of death.
However, looking at her daughter around her, she suddenly summoned up courage. She wanted to sacrifice herself. Maybe, maybe the general would take a fancy to herself and beg him. Maybe her daughter would survive.
However, before she could speak, the general suddenly bent down and picked up the doll almost trampled by the horse''s hooves.
He reached out and flicked the dust off the puppet, then sent it to the little girl.
For a moment, everyone was stunned, staring at the scene in front of him, not knowing what to say.
The little girl timidly extended her hand to take over the doll. She saw the general with a gentle smile.
The sound of the horse''s hoof gradually faded away. I don''t know how long it took for the mother to react. She hugged her daughter and sobbed. Only she knew what she had experienced in the moment just now.The people around them are all looking at each other, one by one at a loss. Some of them have never seen this kind of thing in their life.
It was only at this moment that they were surprised to find that the army was so neat. From general to soldier, they just crossed the street silently. Even those soldiers who stood guard only stood guard and aimed their weapons at the sky instead of them.
As time went by, the streets gradually quieted down. These soldiers did not snatch money, burn, kill or plunder, or even get close to any common people.
The whole Bianliang city was in chaos with strange silence. These people who were used to war had never seen such a winner, no blood, no scream.
Gradually, people scattered, they closed the door, dare not make a sound.
The years of war have made them unable to trust anyone. In their eyes, all armies are the same.
"Tick, tick, tick."
"Pa pa pa."
I do not know when, the patter of rain into a downpour.
The woman is uneasy sitting in the corner of the room, holding the scissors that can make her feel a little safe.
All of a sudden, she found that her daughter didn''t know when to go away. This discovery made her panic. Suddenly, she stood up and hugged her daughter by the window to pull her back.
However, at this moment, he saw a strange picture.
Outside the window, several soldiers sat under the eaves of her house. The low eaves could not cover the wind and rain at all. The soldiers were already wet and shivering with cold.
Looking around, almost the whole street was the same scene. Some soldiers even fell asleep under the eaves like that.
However, none of them occupied the houses of the common people alone. They just stood there silently under the wind, rain and cold. ..
