Chapter 487: The Struggle of the Little Soldiers
The cement creaked against the car.
The mountain roads in Tubo are very narrow, and in some places the cars can't pass, so at this time, they rely on manpower to pass bags of cement kang and then load the truck.
However, none of the 3,666 soldiers cried out.
The cement was transported to Stone Town, and after it was unloaded, these Tang soldiers gathered around in twos and threes, waiting for the meal to be served.
Not far away, some Tibetan soldiers, dressed in heavy clothes and wearing knives, always looked at this side with hostility in their eyes.
All the Tang Army, at this time, were thinking about how to get important information from the mouths of these Tubo people.
The 3,666 soldiers who were carefully selected and came to the country of Tibet, not only to adapt to the environment in Tibet, but also to spy on the military situation and break the morale of the other side.
However, now that these Tibetans are hostile to themselves, how should they be able to talk to these Tibetans?
If you can't talk to you, how can you get military information?
A soldier of the Tang Dynasty squatted on the ground, then groped out a boiled egg from his arms, peeled off the shell, and revealed the white egg inside.
"It smells so good."
He sighed, then took a bite, pretended to be delicious, and ate it.
"Gollum"
The sound of swallowing saliva sounded next to him.
The Tubo soldiers next to him saw it, it was really a gluttonous mouth, and his saliva was dripping.
"Do you want to eat?" He said in Tibetan dialect.
"Yes."
The man nodded unpretentiously.
Not only do you want to eat it, when you grow so big, these Tubo soldiers haven't eaten eggs yet, but I heard that this egg is delicious, but I really don't know what it tastes like.
"Come on, come on, I still have a few here, let's divide them." He said with a smile, then pulled five or six eggs out of his clothes.
"These are not ordinary eggs, these eggs are boiled with secret tea leaves, but tea eggs, which taste much better than ordinary eggs." He said with a smile.
Those Tibetan soldiers hurriedly surrounded them and divided the eggs, which was not polite at all.
"Delicious, right?" He said with a smile.
"Delicious, delicious." A Tibetan soldier devoured the tea eggs, and he didn't even know what it tasted like.
"It's delicious!" Another Tibetan soldier ate half of it, and the other half was carefully put away.
"Listen to your accent, you're also from Tibet, right?" After one of them finished eating, he looked at Fang Dongzan and said with a blank look.
"You speak so well in Tubo, you should be a Tubo person."
"What did you become the Tang Army?"
“……”
After eating the eggs, these Tibetan people began to become familiar with them, and they spoke one after another.
"Hey, you don't know, I was originally from Tubo and from the Gaduo tribe." The soldier smiled faintly and said, "However, I am a Tang man now." ”
"Among the Tang army, there are also Tubo people?" A Tibetan soldier was taken aback.
"Why not? There are not only Tubo people, but also Tuhun Valley people, Turkic people, Dangxiang people, and Goguryeo people. The soldier smiled faintly and said, "I didn't have a name before, but after I became a Tang Army, I gave myself a name, called Fang Dongzan." ”
"Last name?"
"I really envy you."
"Only nobles can have surnames."
“……”
All the Tibetan soldiers couldn't help but say one after another, with envy on their faces.
In many areas, the common people have only a first name, not a surname. Surnames are only available to nobles.
This is true throughout the world, and this continues until two thousand years later. Therefore, after the reform of a certain country in later generations, a group of strange names appeared.
"What's this?" Fang Dongzan showed a smug look on his face and said: "To become a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, the first condition is to have a name and a surname, and a name and a surname to eat meat. ”
"Got meat?"
"Is there really meat to eat?"
"Is there really meat?"
“……”
When these Tibetan soldiers heard that there was meat, their saliva flowed one by one.
Everyone is not familiar with meat, those big nobles, one by one, eat meat and drink wine every day, the taste is really fragrant and fragrant.
It's a pity, as a serf, I have always had to watch.
"Not only meat, but also white rice, fragrant white rice, enough! He was also able to receive ten taels of silver every month. Fang Dongzan said with a smile: "Sometimes, there is still good wine to drink." ”
"Is there really a dozen taels of silver a month?"
"Isn't that getting rich? Ten taels a month, that's one hundred and twenty taels a year. ”
"When the Tang Army was able to collect money and meat to eat."
"Can you still drink? I can't even remember when I was drinking. ”
“……”
All the Tibetan people gathered around, and their faces showed envy.
Wouldn't it be nice if the Tibetan country could do the same?
Tubo is still serfdom now, all the money and grain belong to the nobles, the cattle, sheep, and barley in the valley are all nobles, and these soldiers from slaves are not to mention eating meat, and it is good to be able to eat a full meal.
Therefore, when I knew that Tang Bing could not only eat meat, but also eat well, and receive money, I was really envious in my heart.
"If I work hard for another two years, I will be able to marry a woman as a wife." Fang Dongzan opened his mouth and said: "When the time comes, I can get a few acres of land, and the child I give birth to will also be a free man." ”
"That's really going to be a nobleman." A Tibetan man couldn't help but exclaim.
"Only nobles can own land."
"When you become a Tang Army, can you really become a nobleman?"
"It's incredible."
“……”
The envy in everyone's eyes became even stronger.
"The land of Datang is fertile, but the population is not large, now when you become a Tang soldier, you have ten acres of land, you have established meritorious deeds, and there is more land, if you become an officer, it will be even more amazing......" Fang Dongzan gushed and said, describing the life of Datang as beautiful as it is, and as happy as it is.
People in this world yearn for beauty and happiness.
Fang Dongzan showed a faint smile on his face, as long as this news spread among the soldiers of the Tubo State, it would definitely be able to greatly damage the morale of the Tubo State.
At this time, some other Tang soldiers also took out the eggs hidden in their arms and distributed them to the nearby Tubo soldiers, chatting with these Tubo soldiers.
Those Tibetan soldiers showed great envy on their faces.
It would be great if I could own land and silver taels.
Fang Dongzan showed a faint smile on his face, and at the same time paid attention to the other party's words, silently remembering the useful information in the other party's words.
