Chapter 83
Chapter Eighty-Three: Suffocation
Everyone had to shrink into the narrow water compartment all the way, and even the exhaled air made people feel turbid and unpleasant.
However, for the sake of safety, everyone was warned to stay here obediently, and even Jia Ling couldn't leave the warehouse at will.
If someone really can't hold back and wants to get out of the warehouse to breathe, they must first knock the partition code correctly, and the personnel outside the warehouse can only release it after confirming the safety of the waterway. Otherwise, it will be suffocated in the water compartment and will not be released.
Such a rule, although somewhat ruthless, is necessary, and cannot ruin a boatload of people because of one person.
It was boring in this water compartment, Shi Bin began to think wildly, and at this time he regretted taking these warriors north to attack the rear of the Yuan people.
Song Ting's cowardice was something he never expected, once he won, he would sue for peace, could it be that his Zhao Kuangyin family sold "doves of peace"?
However, these actions of the Song court made him more determined to divide the feudal town, and he must not be led away by such a waste court.
It took more than ten days for Shi Bin and his party to finally return to the Jingzhou military camp, and the joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe was indescribable, and the entire military camp was filled with a festive atmosphere. γ
The soldiers who did not go north looked at Shi Bin and the elite soldiers under him, and all of them showed extremely envious and incredible eyes.
In their concept, "fighting the grass valley" is to loot and show off their power outside the city, where is there anyone who enters the city to kill the prince and break the county?
The key is that after such a rampant stirring up, more than 300 people came back from 500 people who went north, which is the most incredible place for the soldiers in the battalion.
Some of the military families who had already hung up their white sails and received their pensions were embarrassed to put away their white sails and return their pensions a few days after the soldiers returned home.
But of course, Shi Bin is very grateful, a few taels of silver is too light compared to a husband or son.
After dealing with the miscellaneous affairs of the Jingzhou military camp, Shi Bin and Jia Ling looked at each other and smiled at each other, holding each other's hands tightly, like warriors who died generously, and embarked on the road back to Ezhou to see Jia Rudao.
Neither of them knew what to do when they saw Jia Rudao, so they hoped that time would pass slowly, but it was always difficult to realize their wishes, and when the couple was stunned, they had already entered Ezhou.
Waiting at the door was Er Zhuang, a nerd who usually doesn't smile, and when he saw Shi Bin and his wife today, he immediately ran over and reminded: "Miss, uncle, you are really... Hey, you have to be careful anyway, Xiaoqin has been beaten and scolded almost every day since you left. β
Although Jia Ling was naughty, she was not ruthless, she looked back at Xiaoqin, who was still afraid, she apologized to Xiaoqin in a low voice, and said that they will always be the best sisters, not masters and servants.
Xiaoqin is a very contented girl, and when she heard Jia Ling's apology, he said with tears that he would not betray Jia Ling even if he lost his life in the future.
After entering the door, the two hesitated, should they just go to see Jia Nidao, or avoid the limelight of the past two days and then admit their mistakes to Jia Nidao?
This time, Shi Bin was also a lot more cunning, and said: "Madam, since Erzhuang saw us entering the door, he will definitely report to his father, as long as we are safe, my father will be relieved, as for when we go, I don't think it's very important, he is relieved of the most important thing." What's more, let's go right away Maybe it will anger him, he shouldn't be angry when he's old, we should think about him... β
"It's good to let Jia Nidao rest assured", "For the sake of Jia Nidao's body", Shi Bin actually said that Jia Ling almost laughed when he said that he avoided seeing him, but it was also exactly what she wanted, so she also echoed: "Yes, since it is difficult for us to be filial to our knees, then try to make my father and his old man less angry, and it is good to go back in two days." β
So the two slipped out of the side door and played in the Jia family's manor outside the city for two days.
It is estimated that according to common sense, Jia Rudao's temper is estimated to be better, anyway, "whether it is a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided", and they returned to the city on the third day.
After returning to Jiafu, Shi Bin and his wife naturally had to be scolded, of course these two people would not touch their heads, and they admitted their mistakes vigorously, saying that they would not let Jia Yidao worry anymore, and they would be obedient.
But after scolding for two days, Jia Ling ran to Jia Rudao and squeezed it.
How can the daughter Jia Yidao, who was raised by herself, not know what she thinks in her heart?
But Jia Ling ignored Jia Yidao's hints, and still asked for grain and grass for Shi Bin, although he repeatedly refused, but in the end he couldn't stand Jia Ling's soft grinding and hard bubbles, and said that he could fully support the grain and grass baggage, but the military salary could only be responsible for ten battalions, and the remaining five battalions had to be raised by Shi Bin himself.
Of course, it will not be in vain to give support, Jia Yidao's condition is: Jia Ling can no longer leave Ezhou or Tanzhou.
In order to express his gratitude, Shi Bin said that he would definitely be firmly optimistic about Jia Ling and no longer let her run around; In order to apologize, half of the credit was given to Jia Nidao.
It is very firmly said that he is just a horseman who charges and fights, and his strategizing is the credit of Meng Dutong and General Jia.
Seeing that Shi Bin was so sensible, Jia Yidao also said that although the commander of the military capital was not promoted this time, the military generals were ready to promote him to the rank of captain of Zhiguo (Zhengqipin).
After hearing this, Jia Ling also broke out, saying that he had killed the prince and recovered Xinzhou before he gave Zhengqipin, and those who swallowed the credit were too shamelessγγγγγγγ
Jia Rudao stood on the opposite side, that is, one of the people who swallowed the credit, and being scolded by his daughter so carelessly can be regarded as shameless.
Although he also opened his mouth to dissuade him, he was reprimanded by this Hedong lion, "How can you be so allowed to be pinched and flattened as a soft persimmon." In this way, Shi Bin was also in a dilemma, so he had to keep silent.
In the end, in order to appease his daughter's anger, Jia Rudao said that he could be fully responsible for Shi Bin's military quartermaster and salary, but his official position could not be promoted.
Of course, Shi Bin knew that it was wiser to accept it when he saw it. After negotiating these conditions, after leaving Jia's mansion, Shi Bin found that Jia Ling smiled proudly.
At this time, I realized that she was playing a good show of 'collecting debts for her husband' again. Although it is not pleasant to be robbed of the credit, at least there are enough military supplies and salaries, and it is worth relieving a lot of pressure.
Shi Bin, who was anxious, didn't accompany Jia Ling to go shopping, and went straight to the munitions depot. When he walked dozens of meters away from the warehouse and saw Zhang Shijie, he was very happy. He was about to say hello, but what he saw in his eyes made him stop.
I vaguely heard Zhang Shijie say something to the quartermaster who had no quality with a begging tone, and Zhang Shijie's groveling appearance made Shi Bin very unhappy.
Just as he was about to turn away, he suddenly remembered that he himself had come to ask for military supplies, so he simply walked over as if he hadn't seen anything.
When he got closer, he saw that the man looked high, and said arrogantly: "Commander Zhang, will I care about that little filial piety?" It's really that the order from above hasn't come down, and the supplies haven't arrived, do you think I can give it to you? You're not trying to break military rules, aren't you hurting me? β
It is estimated that this batch of troops is in urgent need, Zhang Shijie begged again, and promised to bring twice the filial piety next time, but the quartermaster still looked like a businessman, and it was not negotiable.
A military man who had neither so much scheming nor such good patience finally couldn't bear it anymore and turned away angrily. The quartermaster gave him a disdainful look and drank his own tea.
Shi Bin, who saw all this in his eyes, was very angry, and wanted to beat the quartermaster and scold Zhang Shijie on the spot.
Fortunately, he is not the kind of guy who doesn't care about anything when he has blood, and after a while, he thought about it again, and finally thought that it was better to calm down, there was no need to offend this quartermaster for others, even if it was an admirable hero.
When he arrived at the quartermaster depot, he dealt with the quartermaster, and when he looked closely, he didn't know the new quartermaster. Subconsciously, I feel that this time things are probably not so easy.
More is better than less, he took out five coins of broken silver from his pocket and handed it to the quartermaster, hoping to take away the military supplies that should be given to him as soon as possible, and not see this piercing guy sooner.
The money was collected, but the quartermaster didn't mean to open the warehouse door, he still looked high, and said lazily: "Commander Shi, I guess you just heard what I said, the delivery above hasn't come down yet, and the inventory inside is for emergency use, so I don't dare to take it away for you." In this way, I will take the money, and as long as your share comes, I will leave it for you. β
What the? After receiving the money, you don't do anything? Is this guy itchy and underwhelmed? was about to reward him with a mouthful, but he endured it again.
It's just five dollars of silver, and it's not worth offending a villain for this. Maybe it's indeed an emergency inventory, and it may be easier to ask Jia Rudao to say hello at that time.
After thinking clearly, he said a polite word and left. After walking a short distance, I heard the conversation between the quartermaster and the quartermaster. The quartermaster was obviously more honest, and thought that his commander should do things since he had taken the money.
And the quartermaster thinks that Zhang Shijie and Shi Bin are both martial artists, although he himself is a tasteless official, he is also a showman, better than this martial artist. So he had to grind those martial artists twice to make them well-behaved, and then he collected money and did things.
At this time, Shi Bin figured it out, it turned out that he deliberately made a trip, and he wanted to make it a few times.
At this time, he didn't want to endure it anymore, and if he endured it again, he would not be Shi Bin, not the murderous Shi Commander. He drew the waist knife from his waist, ran over angrily, and without saying a word, pressed the saber to the quartermaster's shoulder.
That guy was obviously a master who deceived good and feared evil, and when he saw Shi Bin's threat, he immediately began to beg for mercy.
Shi Bin didn't want to calm down at this time, and he was even more angry when he saw such a boneless guy. When he was about to slap him down with a knife, the quartermaster howled: "Be careful I tell your boss!" β
Although he was stunned for a moment, his killing intent increased even more at this time, and he slashed twice in a row, and the quartermaster's two arms were easily separated. It hurt so much that he rolled on the ground, and the insults in his mouth were useless.
Of course, Shi Bin is not afraid of such a trivial matter, the dignified commander of Tanzhou slashing a quartermaster is really nothing, just criticize it and understate it.
But what made him really angry was that the quartermaster who claimed to be a talented man dared to treat a Tanzhou commander with thousands of elite soldiers under his command like this, which shows the low status of the military generals of the Song Dynasty.
Silver and knives went hand in hand, and after some twists and turns, of course the military supplies were finally obtained, but Jia Ling was very surprised when she heard Shi Bin say this, and she was a little panicked for a while.
The status of the commander of the dignified Tanzhou is actually low like this, isn't he a military attachΓ©? It is impossible for an official who was born as a military general to be both a civil official and a military attache in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is the most taboo feudal town in the Great Song Dynasty if he is in charge of military power, as well as administrative and financial power.
I still haven't come up with a solution. After fighting for so long, I found out that being a military attache was so discriminated against. It seems that if it weren't for the sign of 'Jia Nidao son-in-law' hanging before, it is estimated that he would have been so angry that he would have smoked.
