Chapter 53 I'm going to the battlefield
Maybe he was thinking about the war in Chang'an, so Liu Zongmin's convoy walked very fast. One day later, the large group of people entered Chang'an City.
When Liu Zongmin saw that he finally rushed back to Chang'an City before the Jianlu Western Route Army arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief. He went to the palace to find Li Zicheng to deal with the order. Then he went to various battalions to patrol the people, organize the equipment, and check the logistics, and was very busy for a while.
Of course, he had not forgotten to put Xiong Yuanba under house arrest in a small courtyard during his busy schedule.
In a battle of more than 100,000 people, there were naturally countless complicated things. The soldiers of Shun Army were almost busy from top to bottom.
Xiong Yuanba has been very idle these days, and he will hang up as long as he goes online. However, Tian Jianxiu, Zhang Nai, and even Ma Bao, who he is familiar with, have not seen many days because he is busy with various military affairs.
Now he is responsible for monitoring and is serving him a confidant named Ma Bao, named Ma Shou. His mouth is extremely broken, and he can't hold two taels of spice oil in his belly. If he doesn't say anything, it will feel uncomfortable to hold it in his stomach.
Xiong Yuanba stayed with him for two days, and almost knew how many times he had hemorrhoids when he was a child.
In fact, to be honest, Ma Shou is not an outsider.
He is one of the four great masters of Ma Shiyao in Tongguan City, ranking third among the blessing, fortune, longevity and joy.
Although he was loyal to Ma Shiyao, he was just because he was too shady. If he had known any secret matters, all the people in Tongguan City would know the next day.
So Ma Shiyao couldn't stand him, so he simply sent him to his clan brother Ma Bao, which was unaware of his eyes.
Of course, Ma Bao also knew about Ma Shou's bad mouth, so he naturally would not tell Ma Shou about major events like this when changing flags at the last minute. He just told Ma Shou that this bearded man was very important. He could not be slow, but he could not let him escape.
Ma Shou is also loyal. In the past few days, he has been hitting Xiong Yuanba's bedside in front of Xiong Yuanba's bed, and he is always on the verge of his steps.
Xiong Yuanba always thought that the "Chang'an Defense Battle" mentioned by Liu Zongmin should be a scene similar to a large army siege.
The gray bottles, cannons, rolling wood, and rocks fell down one after another, and the car rushed under the city wall, the ants on the ladder attacked the city, and the archers, red cannons, and catapults in the distance continued to cover the long-range firepower.
In short, the Chang'an Battle in his mind should be a grand siege scene.
So he wrote a note and asked Ma Shou where the Western Route Army of Ajige had gone and when the war started. He must tell him in advance that he wanted to go to the city wall to have a good look and don't miss any wonderful war scenes.
Ma Shou was amused when he saw the note: "Master, you have never fought a few battles. Since ancient times, if you defend the city, if you rely on a strong city and stay away from the door, it will be a passive situation of being beaten. Unless it is an absolute disadvantage in the military, you must go out of the city to fight."
"Now the troops in our Chang'an City are stronger than Jianlu, so we will naturally not just trap the city. The battlefield will be located about twenty miles northeast of Chang'an City. That place is too far from the city wall, and you can't see anything."
"I think you should keep your heart in your stomach. This war is different from the past. The right time, place, people and people are on our side. You should live in this small courtyard honestly. After the war is over, you can wait for the celebration banquet."
Xiong Yuanba was anxious when he heard this. The reason why he didn't commit suicide and returned to the city immediately was to live in this small courtyard every day. Isn't it just that he wanted to take advantage of the experience of the Chang'an war? If he couldn't go to the battlefield, it would be better to commit suicide and return to Tongguan now.
He immediately wrote on the paper: "Call Liu Zongmin to me, I have something to say to him."
When Ma Shou saw the words on the note, he felt dizzy.
Who is Liu Zongmin? Ru Hou is below one person and above ten thousand people! Apart from Li Zicheng, Dashun Country is only Master Liu.
Not to mention that the war is imminent, Liu Zongmin is so busy. Even when he is free, Liu Zongmin's mansion is not a soldier, he can enter just by saying that he can enter. This bearded man looks down on him so much.
So Ma Shou shook his head repeatedly and said, "Master, this matter is not something that I don't help you, it's beyond my ability. Then I recognize Ru Hou Mansion, but the personal soldiers of the Marquis' Mansion don't know me! I just want to see Mr. Liu, but I can't see you."
When Xiong Yuanba heard this, the same was true. His modern thinking ignored the gap in the hierarchy of the ancients.
However, going to the battlefield for a walk is the only purpose that Xiong Yuanba is still here now, so he naturally cannot give up easily. Since Ma Shou has no choice but to do it, he can only work hard.
In fact, the method is ready-made, it is a hunger strike! If Liu Zongmin doesn't come, he simply doesn't want to eat.
If it is in reality, it is difficult to persist in hunger strikes. Not to mention hunger strikes, even if you lose weight, at midnight, every cell on your body is trembling, protesting, and instinctively letting people ask for food.
But it’s different in this game. If you say you don’t eat, you won’t eat! You even quit drinking water. Xiong Yuanba can completely yell at a hunger strike in the game while drinking beer and fried chicken in reality!
As a result, Xiong Yuanba's failure to eat made Ma Shou so scared that he couldn't find Liu Zongmin, so he had to go find Ma Bao and ask Ma Bao to find a way.
In fact, according to Ma Bao's plan, even if Xiong Yuanba himself doesn't say it, he has to do everything possible to bring Xiong Yuanba to the battlefield.
When changing flags at the last stage, he even pointed to Xiong Yuanba, how could he not appear?
Now Xiong Yuanba's hunger strike has given him a great excuse, so he hurried to report to Liu Zongmin.
Liu Zongmin is really concerned about Xiong Yuanba's affairs. The main reason is that when he is fine these two days, the more he fiddled with the "Demon God Armor" and the "Dragon Slaying Sword". The more he could feel the magicality of these two things.
He was originally a blacksmith. In the early days of the rebellion, he even supervised the weapons in the army, so he became more and more curious about Xiong Yuanba's origin.
When Liu Zongmin heard that Xiong Yuanba was on a hunger strike, he naturally couldn't let anything go wrong with Xiong Yuanba, so he really took the time to come over overnight.
When Liu Zongmin entered this yard, he naturally didn't need any notification. He stepped in and rushed in. Before he even got into the room, he shouted loudly: "I said, "Gorilla, why are you a demon? Why haven't you eaten yet?"
Liu Zongmin's voice was special. Ma Shou heard it in the room with real hearing. He hurriedly got up and knelt down to welcome General Quan.
Xiong Yuanba, however, no matter what General Quan, he sat on the chair and didn't move. He also served a bowl of "sautéed buns" in front of him, which was prepared by Ma Shou for him, and it was already cold at this time.
When he saw Liu Zongmin come in, he raised the bowl of soaked buns and threw them heavily to the ground, and looked at Liu Zongmin with glaring.
Liu Zongmin was also a poor man and could not bear to waste food. Seeing a bowl of good steamed buns falling on the ground, he felt so distressed that he was so sad that he slid his teeth.
However, Liu Zongmin really likes Xiong Yuanba and feels very fond of him.
He himself has a straightforward temper and looks down on those timid people the most. Therefore, he looks down on the Prime Minister Xia Guo who has been talking with a hunched over.
Xiong Yuanba was tall, with a curly beard, and naturally rough and heroic appearance. He was also majestic and unyielding. At that time, Zhang Nai threatened him to punish him in the car, but Xiong Yuanba retorted.
Seeing a top figure like himself in the Great Sush Country, he was not disrespectful at all, but was very polite to the Ma Shou who guarded and served him. He was quite a bit of the kindness and grudges of the martial saint Guan Yu during the Three Kingdoms period, with a clear distinction between the grudges of the martial saint Guan Yu, who was arrogant but not humiliating the lower, and bullying the strong but not bullying the weak.
At this time, Liu Zongmin saw Xiong Yuanba throwing the bowl in front of him. Although he felt distressed, he just shook his head and did not blame him much.
When Xiong Yuanba saw that the master was coming, he was not polite. He picked up his pen and simply wrote five big words on the paper: "I want to go to the battlefield!"
When Liu Zongmin saw these words, he burst into laughter.
In fact, he has this kind of temperament himself, and he has been fond of war since he was a child. If there is any war, he will feel uncomfortable all over his body.
After reading these words, I can understand Xiong Yuanba’s mood at this moment. However, Xiong Yuanba also has a major relationship with the whereabouts of the imperial seal, but he cannot be left free.
So Liu Zongmin thought for a while before saying, "You can go to the battlefield, I can think of a solution for you, but we are ugly. Now that the whereabouts of the imperial jade seal and pearl hairpin are unknown, you are always guilty."
"Even if I let you go to the battlefield, I will probably tie you up, just to let you join in the fun of the battlefield. If you don't retrieve the jade seal for a day, you will not be able to recover your freedom in one day. This matter is undiscussed."
Xiong Yuanba thought to himself, "As long as you can go to the battlefield first, you can take one step, and it's better to calculate one step. At that time, the battlefield will be in chaos, and it's unknown if you can find an opportunity to break free from the rope." So he nodded and agreed.
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Liu Zongmin stopped talking. The war was imminent, and he had too much military affairs at this time and was not convenient for him to stay for a long time. He just told Xiong Yuanba that he would arrange the matters about going to the battlefield as soon as possible. With a definite solution to the problem, he would send someone to tell him as soon as possible.
Then he turned around and ordered Ma Shou a few words, asking him to get some more food so that Xiong Yuanba would not really be hungry. He got up and left.
After Liu Zongmin walked away, Ma Shou let out a long sigh and said:
"Master Xing, you are so powerful. When I saw Ruhou, I didn't even dare to show off my anger, but you dared to throw the bowl in front of him. He is really a hero, and I admire you very much! If you want to eat something, I will tell the kitchen to make it for you."
Ma Shou's words "Grand Master" are actually called casually. In fact, it has been the same truth from ancient times to the present. This "nickname" has always been spread faster than the name.
In a unit, once someone gives you a nickname, you may not be able to remember your name, but in less than two days, everyone will know it.
Ma Shou's words "Grand Master" are actually a respectful title, but Xiong Yuanba was furious after hearing this. The matter was about to be resolved, and Xiong Yuanba really wanted Ma Shou to get some food.
He didn't eat that day, and his physical strength trough dropped a large amount. But he didn't expect that even Ma Shou had changed his name.
My hair is a little denser, but didn’t it be said that the ancients thought that the hair was lush and beautiful? Why did they become an orangutan when they arrived here?
It's really intolerable!
Xiong Yuanba simply slapped the table again, "I won't eat this meal today."
"This problem of going to the battlefield will be solved and implemented for a day. Grandpa, I won't eat for a day!"
Chapter completed!
