Late at night, the wind stopped and the snow subsided, and the convoy stopped. Grain bags were placed everywhere, and the porters and civilians lay scattered on the snowy ground on the bottom of the grain bags and the tents on top, their fur coats and robes tightly wrapped
, leaving only a gap at the tip of the nose, and slept extremely soundly.
All the bones in Ding Hao's body seemed to be falling apart. He was obviously extremely tired, but he couldn't sleep. It was like a fire was lit in his heart, and he was always in a state of excitement. I don't know if it was because he drank Feng Da Zhang Whip Liquor.
The wine in the gourd was filled with unprecedented passion because he commanded more than a thousand people to perform such a feat.
Xi Zhu'er was already fast asleep, huddled up in his clothes and quilt, making a slight cry. But Ding Hao quietly got up and tiptoed out of the tent.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the breeze was blowing, and his mind was clear. The fire in his heart seemed to be suppressed. There were several grain bags used to press the corners of the tent next to it. It was the leeward place. Ding Hao wrapped his skin tightly.
Jacket, walked over and lay on the grain bag, let out a long breath, and looked up at the stars in the sky...
Ding Yuluo hadn't slept yet. After the team settled down, she dragged her tired body until the entire camp was completely quiet, then she walked back one step at a time, but she didn't return to the tent.
After a while, he walked out of the tent feeling uneasy again and wandered around the camp for a long time.
She didn’t know how long she had been traveling during this period, and how far away she was from Guangyuan. Everything was covered with snow. They had lost their way and came directly from the wilderness. They could only know the general direction. Lian Feng
She didn't even know where exactly the big palm whip had landed, so how could she feel relieved?
She wandered for a long time with an uneasy heart. What she thought about most was the safety of the Ding family. From this, she also thought of her father's difficulties. She just transported food once and encountered so many problems. If
If it weren't for Ding Hao who suddenly appeared as if he was a new person, just because they are the masters and managers who have never traveled far away, I'm afraid the whole team is still polishing it off in Qingshui Town. My father built this family business with his bare hands, and he should do it again.
How much hardship I suffered.
She was walking aimlessly, her heart heavy. After a long time, she walked back into the camp and was walking towards her tent when she suddenly heard a faint singing. Ding Yuluo was suddenly surprised.
, in the middle of the night, when everyone is exhausted, how can anyone sing? Is there a ghost?
Ding Yuluo suppressed her panic, listened attentively for a long time, then clenched her sword and walked gently away.
"I am a wolf from the north...
Walking in the endless wilderness
The harsh north wind blows
The long yellow sand passes by
I can only grit my cold teeth
Responded with two long roars
For nothing else
Just for the legendary beautiful grassland..."
"Who?" There was a soft drink, and the singing stopped suddenly. Ding Hao suddenly sat up, stayed quiet for a moment, and whispered: "Miss..."
"Dumb? Ding Hao!" Ding Yuluo followed the voice and walked towards him: "Why don't you take a rest?"
"I can not sleep."
"Me too..." Ding Yuluo sighed softly and sat down next to him: "What are you singing? It's a very weird tune, but... it's very nice..."
"Oh, this is a song from the northern grasslands. It was sung by the old beggar who told me about the sledge. The tune is very... special, so I remembered it."
Ding Yuluo said: "This beggar knows the sledges used by the people in the far north, and he can sing such desolate and exciting songs. His knowledge is not that of an ordinary person. What is his name?"
"Uh...his name is Hong Qigong."
Ding Hao lied casually, but Ding Yuluo did not become suspicious. She crossed her two weak legs and sighed softly: "It must be you men who have a much broader mind than us women. Such a situation and such heavy pressure
, you are still in the mood to sing, but I...not only can't sleep, I can't even eat."
Ding Hao smiled bitterly and said: "The eldest lady has received the award, I am also worried."
Ding Yuluo spat: "It's all nonsense, how can people still sing when they are worried?"
"Originally, you haven't heard of 'men are sad and women are sad... uh... ah..."
"Um?"
"Nvchou... let's go shopping..."
"Well...it makes sense. I've been shopping for a long time and I feel much better."
Ding Hao secretly wiped his cold sweat and changed the topic: "Miss, worrying is of no use. Since you have followed us to this point, you don't have to worry about anyone being alienated. The only thing we can do now is
Even if you use up your last bit of strength, you have to rest in Guangyuan City. You are the person in charge of the Ding family. At this time, you must keep calm. If you panic, your heart will be ruined. Besides, even if the food is delivered
, it will inevitably be a few days late, and you still have to work hard to clear the relationship. What if you fall ill?"
Ding Yuluo sighed softly and said: "I know, but I just can't calm down." She looked sadly at the gray distance, and suddenly slapped her thigh with hatred and said: "Why don't these barbarians die?
Well, from ancient times to the present, I have always been a bandit. Even if I established a country, I am still no different from a bandit. I come to 'break grass and grain' every year, kidnap my Han people, and seize my Han people's rice and grain."
Ding Hao smiled bitterly and said: "Speaking of which, if the Tatars had never invaded the border, the Ding family would not be as rich as it is today, right? I heard Feng Dazhangbian say that our army is extremely short of soldiers and horses. It is easy to build a city to resist the enemy, but I want to
To pursue and annihilate the enemy, how can two legs outrun four? Then the initiative will naturally be in the hands of others. They can come when they want and leave when they want. What can you do to them? You don’t have to always feel that we are not living up to expectations.
The most prosperous and affluent land in the world has always been occupied by us Han people, and the mountains and rivers with the most beautiful scenery and the most pleasant climate have always been enjoyed by us Han people, who has taken it away?"
Ding Yuluo has now become accustomed to Ding Hao's unique insights and is not surprised. She just listens from the side. Ding Hao also looks at the vast mountains in the north and says softly: "I now understand a truth. When people gain something, they must lose something."
.God is fair. He has given you rich land to cultivate food and a comfortable life. Naturally, he will not give you the most powerful force. Otherwise, there will be no place in the world where the sun can shine.
Don’t they all become Han Chinese?
Those nomads live by the water, relying on the weather, water, grass, and cattle and sheep. Their life is a hundred times harder than ours. A person who is often hungry is certainly crueler than a person who has no worries about food and clothing. A person who has no food to eat,
A person who has no clothes to wear and is willing to fight for a bite of food is certainly braver than a person who has three meals a day. A person who has been riding a horse since he was a child, has no fixed residence, and makes a living by riding, shooting and hunting is certainly more courageous than a well-trained person.
Soldiers also need to be familiar with riding and shooting skills.
Unless... one day, fighting is no longer a matter of individual skills relying on fists, feet, swords, guns, bows, horses, riding and shooting. Otherwise, in general, when it comes to fighting and killing people, we are indeed inferior to others. Therefore, whenever we Han people are in charge,
When people fail to live up to expectations, they will suffer some heavy losses. When it is their turn, the Tatar bosses will suffer heavy losses from us.
However, our Han family has a solid foundation. No matter how hard we fall, we can always get back up in the end and regain the ancestral family property that was ruined by the prodigal sons. But what about the Tatars? No matter how ferocious a beast he is, as long as he is beaten by us
Once you are knocked down, you will never get up again, and you will be replaced by another wolf from another barbarian tribe."
Ding Yuluo nodded thoughtfully and softly agreed: "Yes, no matter how great an ancestor is, when he encounters a descendant who cannot support him, his strength will come to an end. This is true for a country, a clan, and a family.
in this way……"
When she said this, her heart suddenly skipped a beat: "My eldest brother's legs are short. If he can't recover as before, as long as he's not stupid or stupid, although he is still the eldest son in charge of the house, he will not be able to deal with people and take care of many things. At that time,
It must be done by Chengye. With his character and character, wouldn't the Ding family..., Ah-Dai should have been my second brother. If my father could no longer be constrained by his mother's status as a lowly maid, let him recognize him.
If the ancestor returns to his clan..., will his father recognize him?
