Wang Shao lay on the ox cart and looked at the blue sky boringly, the few clouds in the sky were drifting in disorder, converging together for a while, and then being torn apart by the wind in the sky, there were always some clouds disappeared in the process, when he closed his eyes and took a nap and then opened again, there was no cloud in the sky, and the sky was clear!

The sun at the end of summer became very poisonous soon after it rose, but Wang Shao liked the feeling of the sun shining on his body very much, not because of the cold, but because the whole body was itchy and unbearable, and he didn't dare to scratch the wound with his hand, the dead-faced doctor didn't allow it, now is a good time for the wound to heal, he didn't dare to see the water, he didn't dare to touch it, so Wang Shao felt that the taste on his body was no different from that of salted fish.

But his mood is still good, his body injuries are not in vain, I heard that Zhang Zhi was made into a candle by the prison army, he didn't feel that he was suffering a little bit of inappropriateness, Zhang Zhi's whole army was annihilated, this is the best record achieved by the Great Song army and the Western Xia people when they fought, with Zhang Zhi's candle at the bottom, all things in Qinzhou can be justified to make an explanation to the imperial court.

Wang Shao's character is pure. Jiangzhou De'an people. Jiayou Jinshi, who served in the Jianchang Army for only three years.

Since the military marquis of Wusheng Army was admitted to the Jinshi and was placed in the army, it is no longer a strange news that the young Xinke Jinshi has entered the military camp, and Wang Shao is one of them.

Different backgrounds, natural vision, he has to understand better than those pure military men the significance of Zhang Zhi's annihilation of this military feat to the Great Song Dynasty, this victory marks that the Song army has broken away from the simple defensive function, began to advance in the direction of the offensive, just because the Battle of Ranshipo was the Song army's victory over the most powerful ironclad army in Western Xia in the field.

This has a very different meaning from winning the battle to defend the city.

As a new science and technology jinshi is the time when the blood is boiling, Wang Shao heard a rumor in Tokyo, it is said that the Great Song Dynasty is now actively preparing to seek the Hehuang land, and he even heard that someone wants to seize the sixteen states of Yanyun to win the glory of being crowned king for himself.

When others are laughing at each other. Wang Shao carefully studied the Hehuang Land, if the matter of seizing the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun was not very reliable, then the matter of seizing the Hehuang Land was not completely infeasible. For this purpose, he wrote a special article to the emperor. Wang Shao didn't know if the emperor had read his own writing. Anyway, not long after the book, he was transferred from the Jianchang Army to the Qinzhou Tongyuan Army, and he didn't have time to get familiar with his subordinates. In Qinzhou, they continued to fight until they were covered in bruises by the Tangut people and lay on the ox cart.

The dead-faced doctor threw over an umbrella over Wang Shao's head, the sun was gone, Wang Shao was bored and had to sleep, and when he woke up again, he found that the wounded convoy had entered a military village, which was not big, but there were many war horses in the military village. Looking at the slender necks and ears of these war horses, Wang Shao knew that these war horses were the best Western Xia war horses, and Yun Zheng's family had many good horses, which was famous in Tokyo City, and the fact that he deceived people from Western Xia when he deceived people with 3,000 war horses has become a beautiful talk in Shilin, and it has been spread around as a model for the use of wisdom by some people.

The Confucian scholars in Tokyo are rich and don't know how to ride horses, but they like war horses very much, because as long as the literati do not fail to study the ability of Soma, but the horse market in Tokyo is really short of good horses, so some merchants pay attention to the head of the Yun family. Some of the ladies also handed the words to Mrs. Wenxinhou, but Mrs. Wenxinhou sternly refused, saying that these horses were only suitable for galloping under the crotch of a samurai. Don't waste time in the stable.

Therefore, whenever the scholars who were looking for good horses and couldn't get them saw the servants of the Yun family in green clothes and small hats riding strong war horses to the market to buy, they beat their chests and feet, saying that good horses were insulting to the hands of slaves.

Wang Shao barely supported himself and sat up, and when he saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy lying on the side of the carriage looking at a piece of jade pendant on his waist, he asked with a smile, "Where is this?" ”

When the young man saw that his behavior of peeping on other people's belongings was exposed, he immediately raised his head arrogantly and said: "This is the camp of the Young Army, you will be safe when you get here, I just see that your jade pendant is good-looking, and I don't plan to snatch it." So you don't have to worry! ”

Wang Shao laughed and took off the jade pendant from his waist and gave it to the young man: "This jade pendant is my family's ancestral, so I can't give it to you." But it's okay to watch it. ”

Only then did the young man take the jade pendant and play with it, and after a while he seemed to remember something. took off a small copper kettle from his waist and gave it to Wang Shao and said, "Drink a few sips secretly, good things, don't be seen by the face of a dead man." ”

Wang Shao immediately pulled out the stopper, smelled it and was overjoyed, raised his head and drank it with a clatter, grapes with honey are rare in Qinzhou.

The young man saw that Wang Shao was drinking endlessly, and immediately became unwilling, so he stuffed Wang Shao's jade pendant into his hand, snatched the copper kettle, and said angrily: "You are so unreasonable, I kindly invited you to drink, why do you want to drink it all?" ”

Wang Shao smashed his lips and said, "It's unreasonable for you, you kicked out the door halfway to invite someone to drink, and you were stingy." ”

The young man looked at Wang Shao and then at the copper kettle, and finally reluctantly handed the copper kettle to Wang Shao and said aggrievedly: "That's all there is left, I still stole it from Uncle Peng Jiu, the men of the Young Army are not stingy, you drink it!" ”

Wang Shao was overjoyed, took the copper kettle again and drank the sweet wine syrup inside, then wiped his lips and said: "Don't worry, I will go to see the handsome in a while, and the handsome will pity me when he sees that I am injured, and I will ask for a jar of grape brew back to you when the time comes." ”

The young man sneered and laughed, pointed at Wang Shao and said: "Dashuai is eating beans all day long, how can there be grapes for you, even if there is, it will be given to the wounded soldiers, you want to ask for wine from Dashuai to find the wrong person." ”

Wang Shao was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked, "Lack of food in the army?" ”

The young man said sadly: "Originally, we were not short of food, Uncle Cui brought us a lot of food from Yinping Road, but there were too many old and weak women and children who retreated from Qinzhou, so the handsome gave half of the rice and grain to the people and ate the beans sent by the imperial court." The imperial court is also true, the first to send is broad beans, and then it became soybeans, and now it is good to send black beans, that thing is fed to horses, people eat bloated stomachs and always fart, the dead face military doctor said that eating too much stuff is very damaging to the stomach and vitality.

Those civil officials are unreasonable, we are going to go to the battlefield, and they always use us as livestock! ”

Wang Shao sighed and said: "Actually, I don't blame them, this year not only the Xixia people suffered, but our Great Song Dynasty also suffered, there is no grain in the granary, these beans don't know where those officials got them, my hometown Jiangzhou used to be the land of fish and rice, but this year many fields have not been harvested, this matter can't blame them."

Drought, floods generally have military disasters, this time is the same, the Xixia people called, just to grab food, so it increased the burden of the imperial court, we and the Xixia barbarians are mortal enemies, at this time no one will deduct our grain and grass, and no one dares to deduct it. If they can't get food, they can only say that they really don't have it. ”

The young man nodded and continued: "The marshal also said the same, but what our youth army advocates is self-reliance, without horses, we go to the barbarians to rob and coax, if there is no food, we will grow it ourselves, and go hunting in the wilderness by ourselves, we will not ask for people."

This year, there is little grass and no forage to feed the elephants, so Uncle Cui sent the elephants to the battlefield, and more than half of them died in battle, and today two more seriously injured elephants died, they were skinning and baconing, I like the elephant that is missing a tusk, and I don't want to see him skinned and roasted, so he came to the barracks. I heard that the Tangut people were eating people, have you ever seen it? Brother Tiger and Brother Leopard, they have seen it. ”

Wang Shao nodded painfully and said, "I've seen it, those people are now not only eating our Great Song people, but also their own people!" ”

After speaking, seeing the frightened face of the young man, he hurriedly said, "You don't have to worry, they are going to escape." ”

The young man blushed and said angrily: "No, the instructor has long said that when you are afraid of a person or something, the best way to not be afraid is to solve the matter and kill the person who makes you feel terrified, otherwise you will not become a great warrior!" We must not let them run away, we must kill them, and after we kill them, there will be no cannibals, and I will not be afraid. ”

Wang Shao looked at the young man in front of him in astonishment: "Aren't you afraid of facing the man-eating demon?" Can you still afford a knife? ”

The young man glanced at Wang Shao and said, "I am a soldier on the battlefield, and the soldier will be afraid?" ”

"But you were really scared."

"This is a barracks, and I haven't been to the battlefield yet, if you go to the battlefield, you will see if I'm afraid or not! I'm a warrior! ”

After the young man said this, he left in a hurry, and after a short time, he ran over again, stuffed the copper kettle to Wang Shao and said: "It seems that you are also an official, if you want to drink, don't go to the marshal, you should go to the prison army, he has good wine." ”

Wang Shao was holding a small copper kettle in his arms and was helped out of the ox cart by two vans dressed in white linen, placed him in a white tent with the coolest wind, and brought him lunch.

The food is not exquisite, but it is also rich, there is meat, there are vegetables and white rice, and even a boiled chicken, remembering what the young man said, Wang Shao began to eat with a wooden spoon, the child was right, he was afraid of something, and he would not be afraid after getting rid of it, he must do his best to take care of his body, he believed that Yun Zheng would definitely not come to Qinzhou just to run away without hiding the false Pang.

Yun Zheng and Li Chang looked more like cooks than the boss and the supervisor at this time, one was grinding soy milk, and the other was sitting in front of the big stove to add firewood to the stove, today's soybean milk looks good, and there seems to be hope for making delicious tofu.
