Chapter 23: A heavily guarded barracks
In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, the drums and drums resounded throughout Dingxiang County, and the Yin Li, who was sleeping with a rough animal skin quilt, was woken up by the domestic servant Yuan Rin outside the door of the house by knocking on the door urgently, and opened the door with a sleepy eye wrapped in the animal skin quilt, and the cold wind was so cold that he shivered into the house.
Yin Li wrapped the animal skin quilt tightly and walked inside, yawning as he walked, and said, "What day?" It's like a hypnotic early in the morning, Uncle Yuan, what's the matter? ”
Yuan Rin was born in Dingxiang County, and he was very clear about the meaning of the military camp drumming, and reminded Yin Li in a low voice: "Mr. Yin, the time has come, the time for the military camp to beat the drum has arrived, and General Cheng has already told you to go to the military camp yesterday, if you don't go, you will be punished!" ”
The reaction was fierce: "Uh, there is such a thing? ”
"Yes, Mr. Yin, it's not too early, please ask Mr. Yin to change his clothes." Yuan Rin nodded very clearly, reminding Yin Li to change his clothes and go to the barracks to report as soon as possible, and the military law was not a joke.
Well, it's not a joke, I hurriedly changed my clothes, I feel that the robes are not very warm, the ancients did not have the so-called warm clothes, there were no cotton clothes, and the anti-frost skills did not know how to practice, so it was a matter to wrap three robes.
The worse problem came, after the toothbrush and toothpaste were taken away by Li Lizhi, Yin Li could only use his fingers to rinse his mouth, and now Yin Li finally understood why Li Lizhi snatched the toothbrush and toothpaste.
Yin Li, who came out of the mansion, felt indescribably depressed, the deserted street was full of thick snow, the vendors who got up early opened their doors on the cold street, Hu cakes, pasta, buns and charcoal fire The smell wafted in the air, Yin Li licked his lips and took out five cents, and tasted the taste of Tang Hu cakes.
Two Hu cakes for a penny, two palm-sized Hu cakes are very large, the tempting Hu cakes are fragrant and salivating, take a bite of the boring Hu cakes and frown, the amount is very sufficient, but the taste is average, not as delicious as imagined, it can fill the belly and automatically filter the taste.
When I came to the barracks, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the time for the barracks had already passed, and the whole barracks suppressed the tense atmosphere before the war, the grain and grass were mobilized, and the soldiers carried arrows back and forth, making the whole barracks in a busy state, and the fire-making and cooking men set up one urn after another.
Wang Mao had been waiting at the gate of the barracks for a long time, and when he saw that Yin Li had finally come, he breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to greet him: "Mr. Yin, Cheng Jiajun is discussing with the generals and telling Wang to take Mr. Yin to the camp. ”
Wang Mao was very embarrassed and tired of Yin Li, yesterday he bought wool gloves from Yin Li's hands, too much to show off and was found by Cheng Yanjin and plundered, and learned that it was Yin Li who made it to kill the past, and grabbed Yin Li to the barracks like a strong man, mass-produced practical wool gloves, and Wang Mao personally led Yin Li.
Yin Li looked like he clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Then there is a Lao Wang team, by the way, prepare so many arrows, is there any war going to happen?" ”
Wang Mao took out the token and shook it in front of the guards of the gate, entered the barracks with Yin Li unimpeded, and reminded Yin Li, who had entered the barracks for the first time, as he walked: "Mr. Yin, when you come to the barracks for the first time, you should pay more attention to some places, and you must not inquire into the secrets of the camp without permission......"
Wang Mao told Yin Li one by one about the scope of activities and many restrictions in the barracks, and there was a flagpole in every place in the barracks, and the roads between the flagpoles were guarded.
The strictest is to enter and exit the barracks, must be accompanied by three or five people, must not disperse the action, must not talk to outsiders without authorization, all the barracks are equipped with special guards guards, anyone who crosses the barracks and disturbs the order, forcibly passes through or does not form a line, the guards can be killed on the spot.
When the guards meet someone who reports something at night, those who do not have a talisman or waist card are not allowed to put it in, so they are ordered to put down the book and file about 20 steps away from the barracks, and someone else picks up and sends it to the commander.
The second is to point out, every day after the five watches of the drums, each battalion gets up, listen to the sound of the trumpet twice, each battalion soldiers go to the equipment depot to pick up weapons and set up to defend the city, each battalion guards report the situation of the night, the number of people who should be ordered, and so on.
Merchants and peddlers are not allowed to enter the barracks, let alone bring women into the barracks, and letters sent by relatives and friends outside must be reported to the military officials for inspection, and it is not allowed to gather for drinking or gambling without authorization in the barracks, and no one below the general is allowed to run and ride horses, and those who violate it will be subject to military law.
Wang Mao said the rules of the barracks, and Yin Li said: "So strict? My goodness, it's good that I just made a cameo......"
Without waiting for Yin Li to finish, Wang Mao threw an iron waist card to Yin Li and said, "Mr. Yin, this is the waist card given to you by General Cheng." ”
“……”
Yin Li wants to scold his mother, this trip to bite the gold is too unkind, right? Forget about forcibly conscripting yourself into the camp, what does it mean to issue an iron waist card? Want to tie yourself up and work under him? Even if you want to buy yourself, you can show a gold medal or something with sincerity, right? Anyway, if you don't mix it up, you can pawn it for money, right?
Wang Mao didn't know what Yin Li was thinking, so he came to the equipment camp with Yin Li, more than ten women were waiting in the huge equipment camp tent, Yin Li looked at Wang Mao with a black line, didn't he say that no women were allowed to enter the military camp? What's going on?
Wang Mao explained with an embarrassed smile: "They are all family members of the sergeants and soldiers convened by General Cheng, and they all know the skills of female red, and they haven't seen Mr. Yin yet." ”
More than ten women looked strangely at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and they vaguely wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh and salute: "I've seen Mr. Yin!" ”
Yin Li was a little caught off guard, and after Wang Mao hugged his fists and left, he was a little embarrassed and said with his fists in return: "Okay, let's all get up, since we are all here, let's start." ”
They are all in the pit, Yin Li has nothing to say, and Cheng Biting Jin is well prepared for resources, cloth and wool are piled up on the hill, and in the amazed eyes of more than ten women, he took out the charcoal he carried with him, instructed the women to put the cloth away, and drew a few models for them to tailor according to the models.
The whole process of teaching is very smooth, these women have female red skills, a little that is, to save a lot of trouble, three people are responsible for cutting, five people are responsible for sorting out the wool, the rest of the people are responsible for the women's red needlework, and soon the first pair of wool gloves with good craftsmanship came out.
After sewing the first pair of wool gloves, the woman looked forward to the inspection gloves: "Mr. Yin, how is it?" ”
"Good, good, just the right size, very good!" Yin Li picked it up and tried it, it felt good, much better than his own amateur made!
The woman knelt down on her knees and thanked her: "Then thank you Mr. Yin, if it weren't for you, why wouldn't you have had the opportunity to stay in the barracks, can you not report to see the military gentlemen, Mr. Yin also taught the art of glove making, and there is no way to repay the women to worship." ”
The rest of the women stopped what they were doing, followed by kneeling down and thanking: "Mr. Yin, please bow to the people's women!" ”
Yin Li was taken aback, and his head was so big that he helped him up one after another and said, "You, don't be like this, hurry, get up quickly!" ”
Yin Li didn't expect that he was just trying his best to teach them how to make gloves, but in exchange for such a grand gift, as for it? Isn't it just an ordinary handiwork, when Yin Li helped these women up, Wang Mao opened the tent and walked in.
Wang Mao respectfully clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Yin, General Cheng's camp is invited." ”
Yin Li clasped his fists and saluted and said, "Okay, okay, there is the King of Labor team leading the way, you can just make gloves like this." ”
Before leaving, he explained that he went out of the camp with Wang Mao, and walked towards the camp commander's tent, what did Cheng Yanjin do with himself? Looking at the busy soldiers, Yin Li faintly felt as if something was going to happen.
