Chapter 305: Call Me Ling'er
Chapter 305: Call me Ling'er
Early this morning, Ling'er freshened up a little and walked around the barracks in the face of a flower girl, also to further observe the garrison of the Tartar soldiers and find the best time to do it.
Unexpectedly, in the process of investigation, Ling'er, who was delicate and too prominent, attracted Liu Xiaobao's obscene gaze, which almost caused a catastrophe.
The grace of saving her life is unforgettable, and at that moment, Ling'er secretly decided that the big brother in front of her, whether it is an official or a bandit, is her final destination.
Although she is not very old, Ling'er is already very assertive, and she believes in her heart that the best way to repay her kindness is - "When I grow up, I will become you." ”
……
After listening to their life experiences and experiences, Lin Xiao's heart was very heavy and he sighed.
But after listening to this Ling'er's plan, he couldn't laugh or cry a little, and at the same time was glad that he appeared in time.
Those hundreds of thousands of stone grains, if they were really burned by this little aunt and grandmother, wouldn't their battle of Guangzhou be equivalent to receiving an empty city?
If that's the case, at this time when the green and yellow are not in good supply, the food problem of hundreds of thousands of people in the city is enough for him to worry for several months.
……
At that moment, Ling'er led Lin Xiao around to introduce their situation, and when she came to the west hall, Ling'er pointed to a cauldron in the corner and said with a smile: "Brother, I'll cook you a meal today, it's a catch for my brother." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Lin Xiao to answer, she took out a small bag containing money from under a dilapidated Buddha statue seat, called Wen Biaorui, counted dozens of copper coins from it to him, and whispered a few words.
"Okay!" Xiao Biaorui happily responded and hurriedly went out to go down the mountain.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Xiao also pulled Situ Zheng aside and said in a low voice: "Go and find the soldiers, let them all come over to cook and eat hot...... Set up the light and dark posts, and this is our temporary headquarters. ”
"Understood, Commander-in-Chief." Situ Zheng understood and went out.
After Situ Zheng left, Lin Xiao returned to the main hall and said to Ling'er with a smile: "Girl, how many of you are there?" ”
"Here...... At most, there are more than 50 of them, but there are other places to stay, and we have more than 100 people in total."
Ling'er smiled, "Usually we don't all get together, and there are also footholds in the west and east of the city......
Lin Xiao was slightly surprised: "Is it, so much?" ”
"Well, we don't have the most Chaoyang people, in the city and in the south of the city...... It's not our territory,"
Ling'er frowned slightly and said, "Here in Guangzhou, ...... like ours It's too much. ”
"Can you find a few capable and reliable ones right away?"
Lin Xiao groaned, "Regarding the matter of the Tartar granary, let's discuss it carefully. ”
Ling'er smiled and replied, "Yes, just those just now, they are all from the same village as Biaorui, and they will come back and let him summon them later." ”
"By the way, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you?"
Lin Xiao suddenly remembered something, took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, and said, "I have two snacks here, you pad your stomach first." ”
This is the dry steaming ordered by Situ Zheng, because he didn't have time to finish eating, Lin Xiao carefully wrapped them in his arms before he started, and was ready to take them back to the mountain to eat, Ling'er went to the street early in the morning to pretend to be a flower girl, and she should still have an empty stomach.
I didn't know that when I called the paper bag to take a look, after a period of fighting, the two dry steamers had already been flattened or rotten, and they were not in shape, and even the oil paper was broken.
Ling'er looked at the dim sum and smiled lightly, Lin Xiao blushed and said, "I can't eat it!" "Throw it away.
Ling'er stretched out her hand to take it, bowed her head and said, "I love to eat ......"
Lin Xiao was stunned, Ling'er had already put a piece of dim sum in her mouth and ate it, Lin Xiao saw her eat a few bites, her eyes became red, and her eyes slowly filled with tears, a little puzzled.
Ling'er said in a low voice: "Since my mother is gone, no one has remembered ......me like this anymore," she said, tears flowing.
Lin Xiao wanted to comfort a few words, but he didn't know what to say, and he was at a loss for a while.
After eating a few bites with tears, Ling'er took out a white handkerchief, Lin Xiao thought she was going to wipe her tears, but she carefully wrapped the remaining flattened dry steam, put it in her arms, and said with a smile: "Leave it for Biao Rui to eat." ”
Lin Xiao was speechless for a while, and sighed: "It's hard for you......"
Ling'er turned her head sideways, smiled back, and said, "Brother, you said me...... Is it good-looking? ”
Lin Xiao's heart sank, and after a while, he said, "It's good-looking, it's really a ...... A fairy-like good-looking girl. ”
Ling'er lowered her head and couldn't help blushing: "Brother, you just call me Ling'er, my father and mother have always called it like this......"
"Uh...... Okay,"
The corners of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched, "By the way, aren't you from Chaozhou, how can you speak such fluent official dialect?" ”
"Oh, this...... Most of them say badly,"
Ling'er smiled and said proudly, "But for me...... It's not hard at all, hee-hee. ”
"So dragged?" Lin Xiao rolled his eyes.
"Well, actually...... It's all forced,"
When Ling'er saw that it stimulated him, she immediately pretended to be pitiful again, lowered her eyebrows and sighed softly, "The days of begging everywhere...... It's all open food, and there are tartars everywhere inside and outside the city, and they will be interrogated every day, and if they can't answer, they may be stabbed......"
So that's it, O child of troubled times!
"Alas......"
Lin Xiao sighed lightly, looking at Ling'er, Lin Xiao's heart suddenly remembered those rebellious children in later generations who were addicted to games and Douyin every day, couldn't bear a little hardship, and refused to study hard, but were self-righteous......
……
After a while, Wen Biaorui came back, bringing back a small bag of rice and some vegetables, Ling'er hurriedly stuffed the dim sum to Biao Rui, and was busy cooking.
Lin Xiao asked Wen Biaorui to gather a few children nearby to chat, according to Ling'er, these are the most reliable and clever of their sister and brother who have known each other for a long time.
At first, Lin Xiao didn't say anything, just asked a few questions in the form of chatting, mainly about what they had observed, the layout characteristics of the granary at the foot of the mountain, and the activities of the Tartar defenders.
Wen Biaorui was the first to be asked, he found a branch, squatted on the ground and scratched the edge, and said, "Brother, the granary camp is round, with a radius of less than two miles...... There are three large barns and many open-air grain stacks...... There is only one gate to enter and exit, just down the street. ”
"Yes, there are fences in all other directions, but there are no gates, because it's too close to the mountain to get in and out ......of the road," the other child continued.
"Well, that's good,"
Lin Xiao nodded approvingly and asked, "So, how is the garrison of the Tartars?" ”
"The tartar inside...... There were about three or four hundred people, and every day there were people patrolling the fence, rain or shine,"
This time, it was Wen Biaorui who rushed to speak, he tilted his head and said slowly,
"Every afternoon...... There will be dozens of fully loaded carts going out, and they will all come back one after another before dinner...... During this time, the camp had the least remaining Tartars, about less than two hundred. ”
"But ......"
He paused and continued, "Every day after dinner for the past half a month, as long as it gets a little dark, there will be a big car quietly out ......of the camp, divided into several groups and driven to the east and south of the city, to steal grain in the black market."
