Fang Erzhu blinked his red eyes hard several times and lowered his head with a sad expression.
"Commander, you don't know.
When I went home to visit my relatives for the last time, my mother-in-law was pregnant again when I left home.
Then, ten months later, I received a letter from my mother-in-law in the camp.
My mother-in-law said in the letter that she gave birth to a daughter for me and asked me what a nice name I should give my daughter.
After reading the contents of my mother-in-law's letter, I immediately discussed it in detail with the brothers happily.
Finally, after I had chosen a name for my newborn daughter, I immediately sent a letter home to my mother-in-law.
I originally thought that I would be able to go home and visit my wife, children, and children soon.
However!
However!
However, I never imagined that our family would be separated for nearly eight years!
The handsome, humble little daughter is already over seven years old this year, but as a father, I have never even seen what she looks like.
Besides, Marshal, do you know?
Humbly, when I left home for the last time and said goodbye to my family, my old mother kissed her and she was already sixty years old.
My father passed away early, so I relied on my mother to raise our brothers and sisters all by myself. She worked hard to raise all of us brothers and sisters.
In the blink of an eye, it has been almost eight years since I last left home.
I am a son in a humble position, but now I don’t even know whether my mother is alive or dead!
Commander, I am homesick for my humble job. I am homesick for my humble job!
Ohh Ohh ohh."
When Fang Erzhu finished his last words, he grabbed the dust on the ground with his rough hands, and the iron-clad man burst into tears uncontrollably.
Liu Ming lowered his eyes and looked at Fang Erzhu who was kneeling in front of him, clasping his hands, lowering his head and crying bitterly, and his heart trembled a few times.
For a moment, he frowned tightly, and his mood suddenly became mixed.
Cheng Kai noticed the change in Young Master Liu's expression from a distance, and hurriedly stood up and trotted all the way to where he stopped next to Young Master Liu.
"Commander, the last general..."
Liu Mingzhi turned to look at Cheng Kai, and interrupted what he had just said.
"Don't talk yet."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
Liu Mingzhi let out a silent breath, and slowly brought the wine bowl in his hand to his mouth. Then, he raised his head slightly and drank all the wine in the bowl in one breath.
Immediately, he refilled himself a bowl of wine and slowly squatted down in front of Fang Erzhu.
Seeing Young Master Liu squatting in front of him, Fang Erzhu quickly loosened the dust in the letter, raised the back of his hand and wiped the tears on his face vigorously a few times.
"Commander, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry for making you laugh."
Liu Mingzhi shook his head gently, glanced down at the wine bowl placed by Fang Erzhu on the ground, and poured a bowl of wine directly.
"Good brothers, let's have another drink together."
"yes."
Fang Erzhu nodded vigorously, quickly wiped the dust from his palms on his body a few times, and immediately picked up the wine bowl on the floor.
"Commander, you should do your job first out of respect for your humble position."
"Drink together, drink together."
After the large bowl of wine was consumed again, Fang Erzhu gently put the wine bowl on the ground and gave a respectful military salute to Young Master Liu.
"Commander!"
"Hey, good brother, what else do you want to say?"
As soon as Mr. Liu said this, Cheng Kai, who was standing next to him, tightened his expression and quickly winked at Fang Erzhu, who was kneeling on one knee.
However, Fang Erzhu didn't seem to see Cheng Kaishi's eyes. He looked at Master Liu with a respectful look and took a heavy breath of alcohol.
"call."
"Commander, from the day I was ordered to follow the two commanders on their thousands-mile expedition to the West, I have put life and death aside.
Therefore, I am not afraid of death in my humble position.
If I were to die on a battlefield in a foreign country, it would only mean that I was in a humble position and had no ability.
If you are not as skilled as others, if you die in battle, you will die in battle.
As a soldier, I died in battle on the battlefield, and I died a worthy death.
As a soldier, it is my honor to be able to return a corpse wrapped in horse leather.
Isn’t it just death? What is there to be afraid of?
Eighteen years later, I am once again a strong-willed hero.
But, but... Commander, I am not afraid of dying on the battlefield for my humble position. What I am afraid of is dying in a foreign country without any hope!"
"Commander, I am fortunate enough to have read books for several years, so I still understand some of the principles that should be understood.
I know that what I just said has already shaken the morale of the military.
In the same way, people who are humble are also very clear in their hearts.
What kind of punishment will be given to those who shake the morale of the military?
Commander, the crime of despising one's position deserves to be punished by death. Please punish me, Commander-in-Chief.
No matter how you punish me, Commander, I will never complain and will accept any punishment willingly."
As soon as Fang Erzhu finished speaking in a low tone, before Liu Mingzhi could speak, Cheng Kai's expression suddenly changed as he stood next to him.
In the blink of an eye, Cheng Kai suddenly raised his right leg and kicked Fang Erzhu on the shoulder.
Fang Erzhu was unprepared and was kicked by Cheng Kai on the spot, causing him to fall directly onto the ground behind him.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Kai took two steps forward.
He looked at Fang Erzhu rolling on the ground and directly raised his right foot again, kicking Fang Erzhu's chest without hesitation.
He kicked Fang Erzhu on the chest and cursed loudly.
"Fang Erzhu, you still know that what you say will shake the morale of the army?
You're a fucking bastard, you're a loser, you dare to shake the morale of the army, I can't forgive you."
Cheng Kai gasped and cursed loudly, then turned around and looked at a general a few steps away.
"Zheng Hai! Zheng Hai!"
"The end will be here."
"Damn it, go find me a whip right away. I have to whip this unsatisfactory bastard to death today."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
Liu Dashao, who had poured himself another bowl of wine, turned to look at Zheng Hai who was about to leave, and uttered two words loudly.
"Wait a minute."
Zheng Hai hurriedly stopped, turned around with an uneasy expression and saluted Young Master Liu.
"Commander, what are your orders?"
Cheng Kai also subconsciously stopped kicking Fang Erzhu. He ignored the situation of the two pillars above him and quickly glanced at Mr. Liu behind him with a nervous look on his face.
Liu Mingzhi nodded and took a sip of the wine in the bowl, then looked up at Cheng Kai angrily.
"Cheng Kai."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Kai hurriedly turned around and knelt down on one knee towards Young Master Liu.
"The end will be here."
Liu Mingzhi put the wine jar on the ground, raised his hand with a smile and slapped Cheng Kai on the head gently.
"Hahaha, you, a great general, are damn good at protecting your calves!"
Hearing what Young Master Liu said, Cheng Kai's face froze slightly.
Young Master Liu had already said this, but he still didn't understand that the little tricks he had just done couldn't be hidden from Young Master Liu's eyes.
Cheng Kai glanced sideways at Fang Erzhu behind him, and looked at Young Master Liu with a smile on his face, grinning angrily and laughing a few times.
"Hehehe, Commander, what is that, what is that."
"What about your mother-in-law's legs, Cheng Kai?"
"The end will be here."
"You, a military general, want to protect your calf. I won't find fault with you, Commander."
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he silently took a sip of wine from the wine bowl, then raised his hand again and slapped Cheng Kai on the head.
"But, can you fucking figure out the situation before you protect the calf?
The look on my face just now, did it look like I wanted to get angry?"
Listening to Young Master Liu's angry tone, Cheng Kai's face suddenly froze.
"ah?"
"Ah, you big-headed devil, I want to ask you, according to the rules of the army, what should you do if you want to shake the morale of the army before the battle?"
Cheng Kai's body trembled, and his face instantly became tense.
"Commander, this! This!"
"What is this? This, tell me."
"Commander!"
"Um?"
Cheng Kai suddenly clenched his hands and glanced sideways at Fang Erzhu with a complicated expression, who had risen from the ground and knelt down on one knee again like him.
"Back...back...back to the commander-in-chief, the one who shakes the morale of the army before the battle.
We should... we should kill him on the spot to show the strength of the army."
Hearing Cheng Kai's last words, everyone around him tensed up and turned their attention to Young Master Liu.
Fang Erzhu's body trembled uncontrollably, and he lowered his head with a heavy expression.
Liu Mingzhi stood up slowly, drank the rest of the wine in the bowl in one breath, and looked at Cheng Kai and Fang Erzhu who were kneeling on the ground with a frown.
"Anyone who shakes the morale of the army before the formation will be executed?"
Cheng Kai gritted his teeth and nodded seriously.
"Come back to Commander, that's right."
When Liu Mingzhi heard this, he burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, hahaha."
Immediately, he suddenly raised his right leg and kicked Cheng Kai on the shoulder.
In an instant, Cheng Kai glanced at Fang Erzhu just now and leaned back half-falling to the ground behind him.
Liu Mingzhi didn't care about Cheng Kai's situation, turned around with his wine bowl and walked straight to his original position.
"As you said, anyone who shakes the morale of the army in front of the battle line will be executed.
However, you don’t have to think about it, are you in front of the two armies now?"
After Cheng Kai heard what Young Master Liu said, he stood up with his hands on the ground, his mouth twitched and looked towards Young Master Liu.
"Commander, then wouldn't it be that I just got kicked by you for no reason?"
"You fucking deserve it. Who made you so brainless?"
After everyone around the bonfire heard the conversation between Liu Dashao and the two, the nervous expressions on their faces relaxed.
Immediately, they all turned around and saluted Young Master Liu.
"The handsome and wise man!"
After Cheng Kai saw the situation around him, he looked back at Fang Erzhu, who looked a little stunned behind him, and suddenly raised his hand and slapped his thigh with an aggrieved look.
"Damn it, General, I feel wronged!"
Seeing Cheng Kai's reaction and behavior, everyone around him burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, hahaha."
"Hahaha……"
"Old Cheng, you are so righteous. I admire this general. I admire you so much!"
"Hahaha, I second the proposal, General."
"Second! Second!"
After Cheng Kai wiped the footprints on his shoulders with a depressed expression, he turned to look at Feng Buer and the other old brothers and cursed loudly.
"Lao Feng, Lao Ning, Lao Chu, I'll screw you.
You bastards, are you happy to see me suffer?"
"Hehehe, to be honest, it's hard for me to be unhappy!"
"Oh, Old Ning, why did you say what's on your mind?
After all, we are brothers who have been together for many years, so you have to save some face for Lao Cheng no matter what, right?"
"That's right, Lao Cheng doesn't want to lose face?
a ha ha ha."
"Ha ha ha ha."
"Fuck you bitches, fuck me."
Liu Mingzhi walked to Song Qing's side and stopped. He leaned over and picked up the wine jar next to Song Qing and poured himself a large bowl of wine.
Immediately, holding the wine jar in one hand and the wine bowl in the other, he turned around and looked around at the more than a hundred soldiers sitting around the bonfire.
"Bros!"
Following Young Master Liu's shout, the voices around him suddenly became quiet.
"Brothers, if it's just because you said something sincere to me about your homesickness, you are shaking the morale of the army.
Then in our Great Dragon Heavenly Dynasty, of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers on both sides of the Western Expedition, very few will be able to survive.
What’s wrong with missing your hometown? What’s wrong with missing your wives, children, and children at home?
It is human nature to miss one’s hometown and family, what’s wrong with that?
Just say that in our hometown of Dalong, among the wanderers who are far away from home, who doesn’t want to go home?
These wanderers who are traveling around Dalong, far away from their hometowns, still miss their hometowns and their wives, children and children at home.
What's more, you brothers who have traveled thousands of miles and are in a foreign country.
You are in a foreign country thousands of miles away from your homeland, so you should miss your hometown. This is a perfectly normal thing.
If any of you tells me that you don't miss your hometown or your family at all.
Well, I didn’t even have to think about it. My first thought was that there must be something wrong with this person’s brain.
Not only is there a problem, it’s a big problem.”
Hearing Young Master Liu's words, everyone around him grinned involuntarily.
"Hahaha."
"The handsome and wise man!"
"Long live!"
"Long live the handsome man."
"Long live! Long live!"
"Brothers, tell me loudly, are you homesick?"
As soon as Liu Mingzhi replied, the soldiers of the rear army who were sitting around the campfire stood up holding their own wine bowls, raising their arms and waving them excitedly.
"Go back to Marshal, I've thought about it."
"Go back to Marshal, I've thought about it!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the over 100 soldiers with excited expressions, listened to their deafening shouts, and let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he felt a little confused and melancholy in his heart.
