After Li Jinglong left, Qianhu looked at the coach's back with some shame, then turned to look at his subordinates who were sitting around the fire, covering their mouths and noses with wet cloths they bought from who knows where.
Then, with a smile on his face, he walked to the fire.
Brothers, squeeze in a place!
After saying that, he sat down next to a few veterans.
Several veterans raised their heads slightly, twitched their eyelids, and greeted him.
When the Tatars came up during the day, thanks to a few... cough! cough! cough!
Just as Qianhu was about to speak, the strong and pungent smell of burning kerosene suddenly poured into his nasal cavity, causing him to cough uncontrollably. His chest and abdomen turned upside down, and he coughed out tears.
Cough! Cough! Cough! Qianhu is coughing.
Hahaha! The veterans are laughing.
Among the soldiers, Li Dawang, who was in the leeward position, saw this and said, "Sir, please sit here with me. I can't smell the wind at my leeward!"
This guy is a kind man!
Qianhu admired in his heart, and just as he was about to move over, he heard a veteran beside him say angrily, "You baby, you are so kind-hearted!"
Suddenly, Qianhu understood.
Among these people, Li Dawang was the youngest. These veterans let him sit where he could not choke from the smoke. It was a kind of care from veterans to young soldiers. The care of the elders to the young, the top to the bottom.
If he sat over and asked Li Dawang to go away, wouldn't he become a bastard who sat on the heads of these soldiers and shit?
What are you trying to do when you sit there? This cigarette can choke me to death? Qianhu said foul language, and the faces of the veterans next to him softened a lot.
Come on, brothers! Qianhu took out a paper bag from his arms with some pain. As soon as he opened it, the eyes of the people around him suddenly lit up.
Brown sugar? Some veterans exclaimed.
Not to mention that in today's military formation, even on ordinary days, this brown sugar is a good thing for these big-headed soldiers. Not to mention this kind of brown sugar, the milk skins that the Tatars carry with them are all found on the battlefield during the war.
Great stuff.
Sometimes, soldiers who are usually as close as brothers would break their heads for this sweet bite.
My aunt gave it to me when I left Beijing! Qianhu said with some sigh, she said it was cold in the north, so when I was cold, I boiled water with brown sugar to drink it!
Grandma, why don’t I have such a good aunt? The veteran next to him laughed evilly, his words somewhat unclear.
Qianhu didn't take it seriously and continued, "My parents died when I was young, and I grew up under my uncle's knees. They worked hard to support my education, but in ten years of hard work, I couldn't even pass the exam. Later, I had no choice, and I saw that I couldn't achieve anything even if I continued to study.
, so he decided to join the army and become a soldier!
To me, my aunt is my mother. She and my uncle are old, and my military salary can be used to support them!
Hearing this, the eyes of the veterans around him became much softer.
A filial person and a conscientious person will be looked down upon by others no matter where he is. Even if he has no ability, he should be a good person. On the contrary, even if a person has extraordinary ability, if he has no conscience and is not filial, he will be regarded as a good person.
People don't deserve respect either.
Come! Qianhu handed the brown sugar to a veteran next to him. Brother, get some hot water and soak it for the brothers to warm themselves up!
Your aunt gave it to you......
They are all brothers! Qianhu looked at everyone and said seriously, although I just came out of school and have never fought in a war, since I have become a soldier, I know the meaning of brothers! As he said that, he glanced at everyone and said with a smile,
Dawang knows not to eat alone, how can I let a baby compete?
Besides, we have a life-long friendship, so what does a pack of brown sugar mean? After we get our military pay, my brothers and I will have a good drink. Even though I am a scholar who suffered from a plague, my drinking capacity may not be as good as that of you killers!
Hahaha! People around started laughing again.
After waiting for a while, an old soldier found a clay pot and put it directly on the fire. The brown sugar water inside was sizzling and smelling sweet.
The soldiers all watched eagerly, secretly swallowing their saliva and licking their tongues.
At this time, a few unscrupulous veterans from other teams came over following the smell and said shamelessly, "Hey, what is this?" With that, his eyes lit up, "sugar water? Hurry up and give me a sip!"
The man who spoke had scars all over his face and looked like he was from a hundred households in his clothing. Several veterans glared at him, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Where are you? Qianhu stood up and stared at Baihu who was about to fight the autumn breeze.
I am........
Bang! Qianhu rounded his arms and said, "Damn it, if you don't call me "sir" when you see me, who will give you the courage?" With that, he kicked the man on the head and got out of here.
Go back to your place, or I will kill you!
Needless to say, the way he acted and added the official title really frightened the other party. Those people left angrily.
Okay! An old soldier gave Qianhu a thumbs up and said with a smile, the name of the person who came to fight the autumn wind just now was Zhang San, but you actually let you take care of a famous desperado in the army!
Love whoever you want, you can't do it with our brothers! Qianhu laughed and started coughing violently as he spoke.
Come on, boss! The veteran used the title head for the first time, handed over a wet cloth, and covered his mouth and nose!
Qianhu took it and felt it was sticky, wet and full of fishy smell. What did it smell like?
Hehe! The veteran smiled evilly and said, "Don't mess with the hot water. Oh my god, it got soaked by peeing!"
Qianhu felt sick in his heart, but he smiled and said, Cao, have you missed your mother-in-law lately? Your urine smells so damn dirty!
Hahaha! The campfire was filled with the laughter of the soldiers.
~~~
Under the night, the long black dragon marched hard in the snow. The soldiers dragged their tired horses and gritted their teeth. At the front of them, the battle flag of the Ming Dynasty was hunting and fluttering in the dark night.
Zhentai, should we let the brothers take a break? Vice General Sheng Yong said to the worried General Ping An.
Ping An's armor was covered with frost, and he had a worried look on his face. "No, if we don't hurry up, that kid Li Jinglong can't stop us!"
He was really afraid of what would come. He clearly placed Li Jinglong at the rear, but he didn't expect that in the end, Li Jinglong would have to use those few people to withstand the Tatar counterattack.
He had two intentions when he ditched Li Jinglong. Firstly, he didn't want to look at his kid, for fear that he would become a burden to him if he fought him. Secondly, he knew how much the kid weighed, not to mention that he raided Wu when he was in Datong.
Lanchabu made great achievements in battle, but anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on, but it's all deception and can't be counted.
However, God's calculations were not as good as those of God. A heavy snowstorm cut off communication routes, and some unknown mishap occurred on the Central Route Army's side, allowing the Tatars to break through.
Now, Li Jinglong turned out to be the only hope for annihilating the Tatars.
Speed up! Ping An shouts the order.
He was really afraid, really afraid that Li Jinglong couldn't bear it.
No matter how you say it, Li Jinglong is also the son of the emperor's nephew and a close official of the emperor's grandson.
If something bad happens, he will definitely bear the responsibility.
Suddenly, a horse came rushing forward in the dark.
Report, press the platform! Thirty miles ahead, you will reach Liugenburg. The Tatar army seems to be preparing for a night battle!
