124. Enter the trenches
Although it is not as strange as Jahailey, it is usually accurate and scary.
Bao Qing twisted his eyebrows and said, "Mayor Town, this matter may really not be avoided, since people said that they were going to issue a notice, and they haven't asked you yet, it means that they have inquired about it clearly."
Now every intersection is a heavy handle, layer by layer of cards, if you want to go out, it is difficult to climb to the sky. ”
Ji Mo said, "Can you ask the locals to see if there are any sheep intestine trails, let's go out in circles from the path, it's really not good, we have few people, hire two fishing boats, and sneak out, isn't it okay?"
Qi Bei reminded, "Mayor of the town, if you can run, the monk can't run the temple." ”
Ji Mo patted his head angrily and said, "Yes!"
The ancient town belongs to Dadongling, and the Great Dongling belongs to the Northwest Province, even if they can run back to the ancient town, what can they do?
A post-autumn reckoning will definitely not be able to run!
So, running or not running, there is actually no difference.
Whether it is a head extension or a retraction of the head, it is a knife.
Zang Erdao, "Mayor Town, if the Beiling Army comes, in fact, we don't have to be afraid, this is not a naval battle, the Beiling Army comes from the sea, and the handover cannot be made, and besides, we are not a regular army, just cooperating." ”
Qi Bei grinned and said, "Fool, if I were the North Ridge Army, I would definitely not come over from the sea, and it would be more convenient to send troops directly from the south than by boat."
Besides, why do you expect the regular army to be at the front, keeping us cannon fodder?"
"Damn it. Zang Er found that what Qi Bei said was right.
Ji Mo sighed and said, "I brought you out, you said that if something happens to you, how can I explain it to your family."
Hey, I shouldn't have taken this job, and I can't go back now. ”
When everyone heard this, they didn't have the gratitude that Ji Mo imagined, but they all looked at him with surprised eyes.
"Why, all looking at me like that, what's on my face?"
Ji Mo was puzzled.
Cui Gengren said with a smile, "Mayor Town, what you said is the opposite, we are so fast, it's nothing, everyone is worried about you." ”
"What, worried about me?"
Ji Mo thought about it, this is really the case, these people in the security team don't seem to have any good stubble, and they are weak chickens, and sighed, "Then you will do it when the time comes?"
Bao Qing smiled and said, "Mayor Town, you still do the same as before, sitting in the rear and commanding." ”
Cui Geng was humane, "The chiefs outside have sedan chairs to make, and we can also carry sedan chairs for you." ”
Ji Mo said, "Do you still sit in a sedan chair in the war?"
He could see that these people hated him for dragging his feet.
Cui is more humane, "The more senior officials are, the more they have to sit in a sedan chair, and some even bring their aunts and wives with them." ”
"I carried the sedan chair, and when the bombardment came, we ran first, and our adult didn't run out, and his head was blown to pieces, and I helped sew up the soil that he entered. ”
Bao Datou patted his chest and said very righteously, "Mayor Town, if you can't run, I will carry you on my back when the time comes!"
Ji Mo's face darkened.
Everyone didn't hold back their laughter.
There was a cheerful atmosphere in the warehouse.
Ji Mo said, "We have brought out all our guns, right? Hurry up and find them and wipe them, don't be in a hurry when the time comes." ”
Bao Qing said, "You can rest assured, it's all in the box, and you can use it when you take it out, just if you can get a helmet, you can have multiple chances to save your life." ”
Ji Mo asked, "Where can I buy it?"
Zang Er said with a smile, "In this world, as long as you have money, there is nothing you can't buy, go back and look at the Northwest Army, there must be reselling materials, looking for more than 30 steel helmets to play with." ”
Ji Mo said, "Spending money can keep us from fighting?"
"It's a bit difficult not to let us go to war," Qi Bei said with a smile, "But if you give Shangguan money, you don't have to be cannon fodder, if the war is not urgent, no one cares how we should get away."
But the war is tight, and no one can guarantee it. ”
"Really?" Ji Mo's eyes lit up, and he said to Ma San, "Take all the money on your body with you in case you need it." ”
Ma San said, "Mayor Town, don't worry, it's all pretended." ”
"Replace Jahaili, his ears and eyes are good, and he is very useful. ”
After Ji Mo took a sip of tea, he looked at Tian Hanmin and Qiu Ling who were humming there.
Qiu Ling didn't wait for Ji Mo to speak, then hurriedly said, "Old pimple, I won't leave, I want to share weal and woe with everyone." ”
Tian Hanmin said, "I also want to join everyone, and I will definitely not desert the army." ”
Ji Mo said angrily, "Don't be stubborn with me, let you go." ”
In the eyes of these middle two teenagers, the world in front of them is still two-dimensional, and the direction is still only left and right, no matter how much Ji Mo explains to them, it is in vain, and only by accepting more beatings from society in the future can he understand the complexity of the vast world.
Bao Qing pinched his knuckles and rattled and said, "There are more than 300 cattle, sheep and horses in the mountains, and a total of 20,000 oceans of gold and silver jewelry. ”
Qiu Ling waved his hand and said, "We can't afford such a heavy task, why don't we let Ma Dong and them go?"
"Don't talk nonsense," Ji Mo said impatiently, "You two pack up and go up the mountain, you don't have to wait for us or inquire about us when the time comes."
Once the road is opened, you will find Cen Jiusheng and Guo Xiaobai, and you will go back together.
They can also help you carry your stuff and drive your livestock. ”
Qiu Ling saw that Ji Mo's expression was serious, so he poked Tian Hanmin and asked him to stop talking, and the two of them responded honestly.
If they lose their livestock and finances, they will really skin them both.
The two of them carried a burden and honestly went up the mountain.
Jia Haili, Yang Laoshi, and Yang Bazhi came back when the sun's rays were fading.
Ji Mo was very dizzy when he saw Yang Bazhi, and said to Yang Bazhi, "Brother, you must also know that the Northwest Army wants to requisition us to fight, and we have to go."
I can't take you with me, so ah, you see, you don't want to look elsewhere?"
Yang Bazhi asked, "Do you have a gun to go to war?"
Ji Mo shook his head and said, "No, the enemy must have it." ”
"Then I'm not leaving. ”
Yang Bazhi scratched his head and said, "I said, when you give me a gun, I will leave." ”
Bao Qing groaned for a while and said, "Do you want to give you a spear?"
"Can a spear count as a gun?"
Yang Bazhi shook his head firmly and said, "I'm not so easy to fool! I won't leave without a gun." ”
"Then I really can't help it. Ji Mo spread his hands, and he was also helpless.
Leaning back in his chair and quietly watching the two rats fighting in the corner of the cabinet, Ma San came over and said that the official notice of the Northwest Army had arrived.
After the soldier who delivered the paperwork took a piece of the ocean, he spat on the ground and turned to leave.
Ji Mo took the yellow paper-sealed document in his hand, looked at it briefly, and circulated it to everyone.
Bao Qing said, "Mayor Town, this is too urgent, let's report tomorrow?"
Ji Mo said, "Eat well and drink well at night, then rest for the night, and pass early tomorrow morning." ”
Since you can't hide from it, let's bite the bullet.
In the evening, the security team chose a restaurant, and after eating and drinking in it, more than 30 people went to bed early.
Nothing was said all night.
Early in the morning, after getting up, brushing their teeth and eating, the people of the security team lined up in two queues under the watchful eyes of the inn residents, and after the spear was carried on their shoulders, the momentum of the whole team changed.
Ji Mo's sense of security increased greatly.
Majestic and high-spirited, he went to the barracks of the Northwest Army.
When they arrived at the door, they took out their paperwork, and there were soldiers to guide them.
The barracks are built on the beach, with canvas tents and no stretches in sight.
The dress of the Northwest Army is not uniform, there are all kinds of styles, many soldiers have vegetables on their faces, and their behavior is casual, and many are double-spearmen, with a smoking gun in one hand and a rifle in the other.
made Ji Mo's expectations for the legendary "Fang Jingjiang" much less.
It is impressive to see the navy, each lean and full of morale.
Zang Er saw Baoqing's suspicious look, and said in a low voice, "There are very few people who don't smoke, and the officials are also willing to smoke them.
But you don't have to look down on them, if you really fight, that is, look fierce, thousands of bullets will go out, and dozens of people will die on both sides at most.
It's the common people who are really unlucky. ”
Ji Mo said, "That's quite empty. ”
He stopped at a large tent, waited for a long time and did not see anyone summoning him in, so he simply pulled a bench, lit a cigarette, and waited at the door in the sun.
Ma San complained, "Mayor Town, this is too much to take us seriously. ”
Ji Mo said with a smile, "Be quiet, what a big deal, I asked you to put money in your brother's pocket, did you give it?"
In case you get separated, you can take care of yourself if you have money in your pocket.
Ma Sandao, "Given, fifty Beiling banknotes per person." ”
Ji Mo nodded, his eyes slightly closed, sitting on the stool, and before he knew it, he was about to fall asleep.
When Ma San woke him up, he opened his eyes and saw a small soldier standing in front of him.
The soldier scolded and said, "Hurry up, what's the effort, don't let the brigade commander wait." ”
"Yes, yes. Ji Mo followed the soldier into the tent.
The tent was simply furnished, with a table with legs sunk into the sand, and in the middle sat a shirtless middle-aged man with a cigar.
Five short figures, square and square face, but it is a small nose, small eyes, spelled on a bearded face, no matter how you look at it, it will not be much better than Ma San.
On both sides were stools, sitting five or six people, and seven or eight people, rolled up their trouser legs, barefoot, squatting or standing, but none of them paid attention to Ji Mo who walked in.
"You are the ......," the middle-aged man sitting in the middle pointed at Ji Mo.
"Ji Mo. ”
"Yes, the security team of the ancient town," the middle-aged man flipped through the documents in front of him and scolded, "There are only thirty-two people, what are you going to do, go dig a ditch." ”
In this way, Ji Mo didn't even have time to react, so he was pushed out by the soldiers on the side.
"Hey, Mayor Mare. Ma Sanyan was fast, held Ji Mo, and said to Xiao Bing, "Slow down." ”
The little soldier was about to curse, and suddenly saw a tall figure standing in front of him, a whole block taller than him, and the momentum was compelling, he craned his neck and tilted his head and said, "Why are you going to rebel." ”
"Hey, how dare you," Bao Qing grinned, "Brother, in the future, the brothers in a trench will not have eyes behind their backs, and they must not rely on their brothers to help them stare at the point from behind?"
The little soldier raised his gun and said, "You threaten Lao Tzu?"
Zang Er pushed away the little soldier's gun, put a piece of ocean in his hand, and said with a smile, "It's all out to eat, and it makes people hate ghosts, so why bother." ”
The soldier put away his gun, snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Bao Qing said, "These little cubs are the easiest to deal with, and the most afraid of them are veteran oils, everything on the face is good, and they will give you a shuttle behind their backs, and they can't be prevented." ”
Ji Mo said, "Hey, wait." ”
The people sat in the shade of the trees by the roadside, and after an hour they were beckoned to go, a mighty crowd of four or five thousand, all walking on their feet.
The people of the security team were centered on Ji Mo and mixed in.
Until the sun was in full bloom, I didn't even eat lunch.
Ji Mo was about to complain, only to remember that it was not normal to eat three meals this year!
Bao Datou took out a cake from his pocket and handed it to Ji Modao, "Mayor of the town, you eat." ”
"If you don't eat it, you can eat it. ”
Ji Mo's mouth was dry, he couldn't eat anything, he stood under a cedar tree, looking at the winding road in front of him, and he didn't know when it was a head.
Continuing all the way south, I once again saw the vast and boundless sea, the twisting coastline, full of craggy rocks, and I had to climb with my hands when I encountered a bad road.
The sea, the blue sky, the scenery is beautiful.
Ji Mo's mood was much better.
Ma San ran over from the front and said, "Mayor Town, I have inquired, this is the road to Vladivostok Port, and it is said that it is necessary to build a position on the hill in front to prevent the North Ridge Army from coming."
When the sun set, the team of 1,000 people finally reached their destination.
The people of the security team found a flat land on a ridge alone, buried the pot for cooking, and Ji Mo sat on a strange rock, watching Yang Bazhi climb the cliff to find shellfish in the cracks of the rock.
"Slow down. The huge wave slapped on the place where Yang Bazhi had just stood, startling Ji Mo.
"It's fine. After Yang Bazhi almost filled the burlap bag in his hand, he threw it on the shore without looking, Ji Mo wanted to hide, but he didn't expect to be caught by Yang Laoshi's hands.
"Take it easy. Ji Mo was frightened, if it weren't for Yang Laoshi, he would have to hit himself.
There was a gunshot not far away, and Ma San looked for it, and came back after a while.
Ma Sandao, "The Northwest Army killed a few Sochi. ”
Ji Mo asked, "Where did the Sochi people come from?"
Ma San said, "It's the kind of person who lives in the mountains, with big noses and blue eyes, and white skin." ”
Ji Mo sighed and said, "Hey, it's over." ”
There are also a small number of Sochi settlements in the ancient town, but most of them live in the mountains, living a primitive life, and rarely go down the mountain, and even if they go down the mountain, they are in groups, just to come to the town to buy things.
In Ji Mo's memory, he had only seen it a few times.
According to Zhu Dafu, during the period of Emperor Wu, a Sochi person could exchange five catties of rice.
Ma San said in a low voice, "There is only one girl left, with blue eyes, like a fairy, so good-looking, but it's cheap that bastard." ”
Ji Mo was talking about the brigade commander Ding Baishun who led them here.
