Chapter Seventy-Five: The Border

It has been three days since Meng Tian set out on the expedition, and everything is normal in Xianyang City, with bustling streets, hawkers shouting, and all kinds of items on display.

Nothing has changed, just like Meng Tian has never led his troops to the battle, but the only difference is that there is more concern in Loei.

Li Yue never went to Zhao Mansion to find Zhao Gao again, and Zhao Gao thought that Li Yue was tired of it, so he didn't think much about it.

On the other side, Meng Tian and the others went as planned along the way, very smoothly, without encountering any obstacles.

After all, it was the first time to go on an expedition, and Takagi and the others were able to keep up at first, but after a long time, they felt that they were powerless, and their faces were much haggard.

"Are you alright?" Meng Tian could naturally see the changes they had made these days, and asked worriedly.

"No problem." Takagi's face was a little pale, but he still shook his head and said.

"Why don't we stop and rest for a while." Meng Tian was afraid that Gao Mu and the others would not be able to bear it and get sick, so he spoke.

"No need, we can hold on, don't delay the process because of us." Shi Ming also spoke.

Meng Tian looked at the people in front of him who had lost a lot of weight, maybe only Xiaobu was still in good spirits among them.

Maybe it's because Xiaobu has lived a life of exile since he was a child, and it hasn't been a difficult thing for him these days.

Meng Tian looked at everyone who insisted, and didn't say anything, just said worriedly: "If you really can't support it, stop and rest, don't force it, if you are sick, it will be more troublesome." ”

What Meng Tian said was the truth, if the strong support caused them to get sick, it would delay time even more, so it was better to take a break now.

Gao Mu and the others naturally knew the meaning of Meng Tian's words, and knew that if they were sick, it would cause more trouble to Meng Tian, so everyone nodded and had their own measure.

There are still more than ten days from the border, it is not long, it is not short, if it is smooth all the way in these ten days, it should be that there is still time to rest and adjust to the border, but if there is a storm during this period to block the process, I am afraid it will be more difficult.

This is also the first time that Takagi and others have realized that it is so difficult before they go to the battlefield, so what will the real battlefield be like?

Fortunately, the wind and sunshine were beautiful for more than ten days, and there was no hindrance, and Meng Tian led the soldiers to finally reach the border.

The vastness of the grassland, although it is not as prosperous and rich as Xianyang City, has a unique flavor, and I feel that the wind is a breath of freedom.

"Ah~ It's finally here." Qishan, who had just arrived at the border, couldn't help but shout as he looked at the vast prairie outside the city wall.

The hard work of this half a month seems to have disappeared without a trace by the wind of the prairie at this moment, and the whole person is in a much more comfortable mood.

The others obviously felt the same way, as if the fatigue on their bodies had been blown away by the wind of the prairie.

"How? The scenery on the border is not bad, right? Meng Tian couldn't be more familiar with this place, looking at the expressions on Takagi's faces, as if he had come here for the first time.

"Sure enough, the grassland is full of a breath of freedom, not as restrained as Xianyang City." Shi Ming sighed.

"Although it is not as rich and prosperous as Xianyang City, it has a unique flavor of customs and customs, and when it is later, you can go to the city for a walk." Meng Tian

Said to Takagi and the others.

"Is that okay?" Shi Ming asked, Shi Ming understood that Meng Tian just wanted to relax himself, but if this affected Meng Tian, it would not be good.

"It's fine." Meng Tian naturally knew the meaning of Shi Ming's words, and then said with a smile on his face: "You are the ones I invited to cast catapults, not prisoners, besides, you just arrived at the border today, and the entire army has to repair and rest, as long as you gather on time tomorrow morning." ”

"Thank you so much, General Meng." After Shi Ming heard this, he didn't say anything more?

Shi Ming and they all came to the border for the first time, although they often listen to some storytellers talk about some border customs on weekdays, but it is the first time that they are as real as this.

Qishan is the most excited, Qishan is the most often emotional person among them, what he likes and what he doesn't like, Qishan puts it directly on his face.

In fact, Meng Tian and the others only stopped in this city on the border for a while, and after resting for the night, they had to continue on their way, and their destination was still five miles away, where they really camped.

Night.

Gao Mu, Shi Ming, Qi Shan, Mu Qi and Xiao Bu, after freshening up at the post station, came out in good spirits.

The customs and customs of the border are very different from those of Xianyang City, and the clothes on the body are also very different, not as complicated as those worn by the people in Xianyang City, and the clothes are very casual and neat.

The voice is also loud, and the voice is full of boldness, and there is a warm smile everywhere.

This was the first time they had seen such a scene, and everyone's faces were full of curiosity, and there were many of the various treasures that Takagi and the others had never seen before.

The vendors did not treat them differently because of their curious eyes, but greeted them more warmly, introducing the past in the same way.

In this way, a few big men got carried away, the sky had gradually darkened, and Takagi and the others had their stomachs rumbling.

"Let's go eat first." Shi Ming proposed.

"Okay." Everyone didn't have any opinions, nodded in agreement.

Shi Ming and the others found a relatively large restaurant, sat in the private room on the second floor, and looked at the bright lights on the street, and all kinds of vendors shouting and drinking their own things, Shi Ming and the others smiled.

"I didn't expect this border to be so prosperous." Shi Ming sighed.

At this time, Xiao Er, who had just gone upstairs, heard Shi Ming's words, and immediately stepped forward with a smile and said, "A few objective people are from other places for the first time, right?" ”

"Exactly." Shi Ming does not deny it.

"Every guest officer just came here, will always sigh like the guest officer, in fact, this is just a corner, there are a lot of fun here, if a few guest officers have time, you might as well go shopping, there will be different harvests." Xiao Er heard that he had guessed correctly, so he hurriedly said.

"We're new to the city, and we don't know where to eat and drink." Shi Ming looked at Xiao Er with an enthusiastic face and said with a smile on his face.

"Guest, you're asking the right person." Xiao Er said proudly: "It's just that it's not the right time to come objectively, the meeting just passed a few days ago, if you meet the rally, the things on the street are called dazzling, and things are sold everywhere, almost whatever you want." ”

"In that case, we really missed out on a great deal

What about the chances? Shi Ming said with some regret.

"If the guest officer is not in a hurry, he can stay here for a little longer, this meeting is once a month." Xiao Er saw Shi Ming's regretful face, so he hurriedly spoke.

"We can't stay long, we have to leave tomorrow." Shi Ming sighed, although he also wanted to stay for some more time, but he knew in his heart that there were more important things to do by himself, and he must not stay here.

"It's a shame." Xiao Er also said regretfully, but Xiao Er immediately said with a smile on his face: "If a few guest officers can't stay here for a long time, it's better to try the most distinctive dishes of the other restaurants, which are definitely unique in this border." ”

Shi Ming glanced at each other, and seeing that everyone had no opinions, he said to Xiao Er with a smile: "In this way, serve all the best dishes in the store." ”

"Okay, guest officer, you wait a moment." Seeing that Shi Ming and them were so bold, Xiao Er knew that he had met a noble person today, so he ran down with a smile to prepare.

"The people here are really welcoming." Shi Ming looked at Xiao Er, who was leaving, and said with a smile.

"It's really very different from Xianyang City." Murch also spoke: "People here seem to be more energetic and live more freely. ”

"When this battle is over, let's come here together for a good time." Shi Ming suggested.

"I agree." Qishan immediately agreed, if it weren't for the fact that he had to leave with Meng Tian, Qishan really wanted to stay here for a while and feel the customs here.

"I don't have a problem either." Takagi also said lightly.

If Mu Qi is a little cold, then Takagi is a little light, on the surface Takagi seems to have no interest in anything, only when he is learning the craft, the seriousness in his eyes can feel his emotions.

Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Shi Ming turned his head to look at Xiao Bu, Xiao Bu is the least talkative, and he is also the one who enters like this, sometimes people will ignore his existence.

Shi Ming looked at Xiaobu and said with a smile on his face: "Xiaobu, what about you?" ”

"I don't care." Xiaobu saw Shi Ming looking at himself and asked, so he quietly spoke.

"If that's the case, I'll agree to you, we are brothers, and we should be together." Shi Ming looked at Xiaobu, although he couldn't see anything on his face, he could still see his love for this place from his eyes.

Xiao Er quickly served all the special dishes in the store, a large table full, and then happily withdrew.

Takagi and the others didn't care if they could finish eating it, they always felt that these dishes were very peculiar, most of them were not eaten much by themselves, and even the roast mutton seemed to be more delicious than Xianyang City, tender and fatty.

After a full meal, Takagi and the others touched their big belly and sat there with a satisfied face, this section was the best meal they had eaten in more than half a month.

On the way to the march, he ate dry food, although Mu Qi's mother prepared a lot of delicious dry food for him, but it was quickly snatched up by Shi Ming and the others.

"We will set off to the camp tomorrow, when the war starts, we must protect ourselves, don't even involve General Meng, we will go back together, no one is missing, there are still people in Xianyang City waiting for us to go back." Although Shi Ming knew that it was not appropriate to mention this matter at this time, he still spoke.
