The long caravan turned the fork in the road ahead and headed for the direction of the Hoteng market, and the Chinese military horse caravan traveling with it went to the other side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Zhuo Yongqing was in the middle of the team, he was dusty, and he had a patch of gauze on his forehead, obviously coming back from the battlefield outside the mountain, and there was a cloth bag behind the war horse, and the bag contained the things that Mao Yishan, Hou Wu and others asked him to bring back from outside the mountain.

Outside of Liangshan, the Huaxia army attacked rapidly, easily taking six or seven towns on the road to Chengdu. Due to the high degree of discipline, the livelihood of the people in these places was not greatly damaged, and the goods in the bazaar began to circulate, and people with families bought some items that could not be seen in the mountains and asked people to bring them back, including rouge gouache and exotic pastries.

Over the years, although the Hoden regime has vigorously engaged in commerce, in fact, what has been sold is weapons and luxury goods, and what has been bought back is grain and many scarce and practical things, and things for enjoyment, except for internal digestion, not many have been brought in from outside the mountains.

Zhuo Yongqing was originally a native of Yanzhou in the northwest, and came to the Huaxia Army to serve as a soldier in order to eat food, and later killed Yan Lou by mistake and became one of the most dazzling combat heroes in the Huaxia Army.

He made great contributions, was promoted and received Mr. Ning's face to face and encouragement, and then took his family to Xiaocanghe, but soon after, the puppet Qixing army came to attack, followed by the Jurchen attack. His parents first returned to Yanzhou, and then followed the refugees south, and on the way to transfer, they met the stragglers of the Pseudo-Qi, and Zhuo Yongqing's braggart father led people to resist and cover everyone to escape, and died under the bows and arrows of the Pseudo-Qi soldiers. In the three-year Xiaocanghe War, Zhuo Yongqing fought bravely to kill the enemy, but fortunately did not die, less than a year after coming to Hedeng, his mother also died because of depression, and Zhuo Yongqing became a loner.

He came all the way, if he knew what bloody nature was in the battle after killing Yan Lou's room, after his father died, he really joined the war, and after that, he made several military exploits. When Ning Yi saw him for the second time, he was instructed to transfer from his military position to the core area of the army, and now, Zhuo Yongqing is serving as a staff officer in the headquarters of the Fifth Army, although his rank is not high, he is already familiar with the core operation of the army.

A few years ago, in the battle in which Xuanjiaao killed Lou Mur, several survivors, including Zhuo Yongqing, have always maintained a close relationship. Among them, Luo Ye entered the upper echelons of the army, and this time he had already followed General Liu Chengzong to Xuzhou; Hou Wu abolished a hand in the first war of Xuanjiaao, transferred from the military, and entered the civil security work. Mao Yishan is now the commander of the second battalion of the first regiment of the Fifth Army of China, which is a highly valued reinforced battalion.

Qu Qing was a general in the Wu Dynasty, and now he works in the General Staff, moving from the front of the stage to the background - he is still in Heden now. After the death of his parents, these people also became Zhuo Yongqing's relatives, and they got together from time to time, and whenever something happened, everyone would also appear to help.

Return to Heden and report first according to the rules. After the work was completed, it was not too early, and Zhuo Yongqing led the horse to the family area on the mountainside. Everyone doesn't want to live, but now there are not many people at home, Luo Ye has a big thing in his heart, and now he has not married a wife, Qu Qing is said to have a rotten life when he was in the Wu Dynasty - he was still a soldier at that time, and he took the army as his home, although he once married a wife, but later divorced, and now he has not remarried. On Zhuo Yongqing's side, there have been many people who came to say goodbye - especially after killing Yan Lou - but Zhuo Yongqing has never settled down, and after his parents passed away, he even avoided this matter a little, so he dragged it out until now.

Hou Wu has a long family background, and Hou's sister-in-law has a gentle and virtuous temperament - often arranges blind dates with Zhuo Yongqing. Mao Yishan also got married in Xiaocanghe, and she took a northwest woman with a straightforward personality who dared to love and hate. Zhuo Yongqing just appeared on the street, and was seen by two women who were looking at the street early - the matter of his return was not confidential, and he was reporting on his work before, and the news was probably already coming here.

"Two sisters-in-law, my brother asked me to bring you something."

"They're always making trouble for you." The sister-in-law of the Hou family said with a smile, and then turned her head and asked: "Come, tell my sister-in-law, how long will you stay this time, when will you have serious time, I tell you, there is a girl ......"

After being hospitalized by the two women for a while, a tall young man in military uniform, in his early twenties, came back from outside, this is Hou Wu's son Hou Yuanhao, who has been in the General Intelligence Department for two years, and laughed when he saw Zhuo Yongqing: "Uncle Qing, you are back." ”

"yes, yes, come back and deliver something."

Zhuo Yongqing and Hou Yuanhao talked for a while, and Hou Yuanhao seemed clear about the purpose of Zhuo Yongqing's return this time, and only when others walked away did he whisper: "Uncle Qing ran back, but he didn't dare to follow the top, for fear that he would have to eat the head." Zhuo Yongqing also smiled: "I came back to admit punishment." After chatting like this for a while, the sunset faded away, and Qu Qing came back from outside.

Among the five surviving people in Xuanjiaao, Qu Qing and Hou Wu are relatively old, among them, Qu Qing has the highest qualifications, he has been a general and participated in grassroots battles, half a horse, he used to have his own majesty and murderous spirit, and now he is in the General Staff, and he is even more restrained and steady. The five of them ate together, the two women cleaned up the housework, Qu Qing went out for a walk with Zhuo Yongqing, and Hou Yuanhao followed behind.

The purpose of Zhuo Yongqing's return is not a secret, so there is no need to be too evasive - the most prominent crimes and disciplinary incidents in the war actually involved some combat heroes in the past, the most troublesome is a company commander, who once had a little unpleasantness with a small businessman who entered the mountain with Hedeng, and this time he went out, just after the siege of the city, he found the other party's house, and killed the merchant by mistake, leaving the other party with a widow and two daughters. This matter was found out, the company commander confessed, for how to deal with it, the army hopes to be lenient, in short, try to ask for mercy, Zhuo Yongqing is one of the representatives who was sent back this time - he is also a combat hero, after killing Yan Lou's room, occasionally the military will use him as a face project.

"It's been almost ten years since the Huaxia Army uprising, and this is the first time it has been fought. But the most important thing from above is actually not outside. Before you hit out, Yongqing saw that the discipline was the strictest, and the meetings were held again and again......" Qu Qing said these things with a smile as he walked, "But the matter has nothing to do with you, you are a messenger, and if something happens, you can't do without a ...... Just know that you are the messenger, and for the rest, watch more and think less and talk less. ”

Zhuo Yongqing nodded: "It's not me who leads the team, I don't speak." But listen to Brother Qu's meaning, will the handling be strict? ”

"Personally, I estimate that it will be strict, but there are two kinds of strictness, deepening the treatment is strict, and expanding the attack area is also strict, depending on which one you can accept...... If it is deepened, do you admit that murder pays for life? After Qu Qing finished speaking, he patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Okay, that's all for gossip, let's talk about something serious......

Zhuo Yongqing hurriedly waved his hand: "Brother Qu, don't get down to business." ”

"I have to say that I just entered the door, and I was pulled over by your two sisters-in-law and gave a death order...... When you are old, find a woman. You don't want to learn from Luo Ye, he is a son-in-law in the capital, and he came from the fat powder pile. You grew up in the northwest haha, you haven't seen as many women as he has touched, your parents are gone, we have to help you do this. Come on, let's not play false, what conditions, you draw a way, see if my brother can catch it. ”

Zhuo Yongqing just shook his head with a bitter face, he didn't dare to cheat and play tricks - he originally thought about blackmailing Qu Qing with a blind date, but Qu Qing didn't take women seriously, he just had enough of playing and didn't want to mess around anymore, it doesn't mean that blind dates are taboo, if he opens a condition to go together, this big brother Qu must be pushing the boat down the river, and he attaches great importance to this matter.

A meeting between the military headquarters and the rest of the departments on the matter was scheduled for the afternoon of the following day. As Qu Qing said, the boss attaches great importance to this matter, and after meeting in several aspects, Mr. Ning and Liu Dabiao, the head of the sword in charge of the Ministry of Military Justice, also came over - although this woman is also Mr. Ning's wife on the other hand, she has a bold temperament and strong martial arts, and she has personally participated in several military competitions, which is quite loved by the soldiers.

The specific handling of this series of matters is still a work between several departments, and Mr. Ning and Liu Dabiao are only in attendance. Zhuo Yongqing remembered Qu Qing's words, and just listened carefully and stated fairly at the meeting, and when all the opinions were stated one by one, Zhuo Yongqing saw that Mr. Ning in front of him was silent for a long time before he began to speak.

"A few times...... I have even asked you more than a few times, what do you think you are, Huaxia, what are you? What is the difference between you and the people outside? ”

“…… The Wu Dynasty, defeated by the Jurchens, millions of people were defeated like mowing grass, we killed the emperor of the Wu Dynasty, and also defeated the Jurchens. We say that we are the Huaxia Army, after so many years, we have won enough battles, what do you think is the difference between us and the people of the Wu Dynasty? You're not all the way from start to finish! Is that right? How the hell did we defeat so many enemies? ”

“…… Because we realize that there is no way back, because we realize that everyone's life is earned by ourselves, we risk our lives and work hard to turn ourselves into excellent people, a group of excellent people together, forming an excellent group! What is Huaxia? China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia; There is the beauty of uniforms, which is called Hua. Excellent and outstanding things are called Huaxia! You have done great things, you say that we are the people of China, then China is great. You have done bad things, saying that you are a citizen of China, do you have this face? Lose face. ”

"For more than 200 years in the Wu Dynasty, civil officials want power, form parties and run private parties to fight against differences, military attaches want money, and form gangs and factions to exploit and eat empty salaries, so that the civil can't admonish the military and can't fight! As soon as the enemy strikes, the soldier first looks at the people around him to see if they can run. It's been almost ten years since the Huaxia Army was launched, and the better days have arrived, right? What a good start you guys! You are also from the Wu Dynasty! Forced to the extreme, awakened, excellent, only then can you start to win the battle, your excellence is not born by your parents! Those people out there, they could all be like you! The rabbit is in a hurry and bites, beat away the Jurchen, you want to become the next Jurchen!? It's okay to be a slave for all of you! ”

"We have held many meetings, done many ideological work, we have earned our lives for ourselves, done our duty, and when it comes to the end, we feel that we are superior! Many people say that it will be too much, but I don't think it's enough! Zhou Tong used to say, in a good world, literati must have rulers, and warriors must have knives, and today your knives are sharpened, it seems that the ruler is not enough, and the rules are not enough! The last meeting was the meeting of the court, who committed the crime, how to judge and how to judge, and then to find out clearly, to give everyone a clear ruler-"

“…… also pleaded for mercy, lightly fell, and made merit to the ...... In the future, it will not take you two hundred years to become emperor, and your children will be killed on the Jinluan Palace, and you will be poked in the backbone and scolded by future generations...... I don't think I have that chance, the Jurchens are now fighting the Daimyo's mansion! Wang Shanyue and Zhu Biao took their lives to fight with others! Wan Yan Zonghan and Wan Yan Xiyin also came down, and the Yanmen Gate was closed! We still have a big battle with the Jurchens, and we want to be happy? Become the same thing as the people of the Wu Dynasty today? The party is the same and the party is different? Punish yourself three cups for doing something wrong? I think you will die at the hands of the Jurchens! ”

"We're not trying to rebuild a martial dynasty, we're going to do better, everyone...... This time, the leadership of the Fifth Army will all write a review, and those who are involved in this matter will first go through to the end...... Who told you to ask for this ......?"

Zhuo Yongqing listened to these words, brushing and brushing in his hands, recording all these things. Although the words are heavy, the attitude is not negative, but the tendency can be seen - Brother Qu is right, compared to the battle situation outside, Mr. Ning attaches more importance to the internal rules. He has been through a lot of things now, and he has participated in a number of important trainings, and he can finally see the steadiness of it.

He was a representative who came to be scolded, and he only passed on the word, so he didn't panic too much. After the meeting, Mr. Ning took the time to meet him again in the evening, smiled and said that he was "pushed over again", and asked him about the situation at the front.

The next day, Zhuo Yongqing left Hedeng with the team, preparing to return to the frontline battlefield south of Chengdu. When he arrived in Jiading, he left the team a little to arrange for the implementation of a thing that Ning Yi had explained: the businessman who was killed in Jiading was surnamed He, and he left a widow and two orphan girls after his death.

Zhuo Yongqing went over with some things in person - he was actually a little selfish.

The last time he was in Jiading, he had actually seen this family and learned some about it. The businessman surnamed He is not very well-off, and he has a violent personality and loves to drink, which may be why he clashed with the Huaxia Army who came to the door and was finally killed. His widow has a weak temperament, her husband is dead, she doesn't dare to speak at all, and the eldest daughter He Ying is still a little beautiful and a little stubborn - if it weren't for her insistence, this matter probably wouldn't have made a big deal at all, and the army's plan would probably be pressed down.

And the second daughter of the merchant, He Xiu, was a cripple who was obviously malnourished and emaciated, introverted and hardly dared to speak.

She reminded Zhuo Yongqing of Xuanjiaao seven or eight years ago.

At that time, he was seriously injured and left in Xuanjiaao by his comrades, and the villagers treated his injuries and let their own daughter take care of him. Poor in the northwest, such a girl can't get married, and the old villager has some thoughts about letting Zhuo Yongqing take the woman away, but in the end he can't say it.

When the Jurchens came, the mute girl was torn naked, and then killed in front of him. They had never said a word, but for many years, the eyes of the mute girl had flashed in front of him, and he could see them every time his family and friends asked him to go on a blind date, which he actually wanted to marry. He remembered that the mute girl was called Xuan Manniang.

The lame girl named He Xiu reminded Zhuo Yongqing of her.

So he went to his house, knocked on the door, and when he saw his uniform, one of the jars fell down. Zhuo Yongqing raised his hand to block it, and the jar slammed into several pieces, and a piece of shard crossed the corner of his forehead, Zhuo Yongqing already had a wound on his forehead, but at this time, another piece was added, and blood oozed out of the wound.

It was the eldest daughter He Ying who smashed the altar from the inside, the lame girl He Xiu hid behind, her eyes behind her long hair were terrified, Zhuo Yongqing reached out and touched the oozing blood, and then raised his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm sorry......" He paused, "My name is Zhuo Yongqing, I have met, and on behalf of Huaxia Jun, I will tell the two girls that for Ling Zun's matter, Huaxia Jun will give you a fair and just explanation, the matter will not be very long, and the people involved in this matter are already investigating...... Here are some urgent supplies and food, accept the emergency first, don't refuse, I'll go first, the injury doesn't matter, don't be afraid. ”

He picked up the two bags from the carriage and put them in the door, and He Ying stretched out his foot to kick it: "I don't want your stinky things." "But she has no strength. Zhuo Yongqing put down his things, closed the door with his hand, and then jumped into the carriage and left quickly.

Don't scare anyone, see you next time.

- Thinking so, he pressed the wound and rushed back, and the next day, he rushed to the direction of Chengdu.

This is their second meeting, and he doesn't know what the future holds, but he doesn't have to think about it because he's on the battlefield. In these war-torn years, who can think much about this......
