Chapter 153 Huo Quai, who has nothing to do
Huo Qubing didn't do anything on the grassland, since the last time he fought a meaningless battle with the Hun little king, he led the army to look for the sheep plate everywhere all day long, and then burned the sheep plate.
Faced with piles of filthy cow and sheep dung, Huo Quzhi rarely focused on these things. Although Zhao Ponu has lived in the Xiongnu since he was a child, he has been a horse thief for much longer than he has been a shepherd, although he knows the role of the sheep pan, but he does not know very much, as for Li Kang, after testing the power of gunpowder on the battlefield, there is no place for such a thing as an enemy in his eyes.
After Nie Yi committed a great sin, the courage of several Huns was completely frightened.
Among them, there is the Fulu branch that grew up with the devil and became a friend, Yi Ji Xuan.
Unable to find the Huns, Huo Qubing was furious, and even the former army general Zhao Ponu was whipped by him.
Worried about being blamed, the Han rangers were like frightened donkeys, running around the world, looking for traces of the Huns.
The results were still not good, and after twenty-three days of continuous labor, a staggering sixty-seven rangers were lost in the wasteland.
At this time, Fulu Zhi and Yi Ji boldly suggested to Huo Quai: Winter is coming, the Huns need to find a place to spend the winter, and at this time they need a sheep plate as a camp, otherwise, their cattle and sheep will not be able to rest on the cold land.
If you want to kill the Huns, instead of looking around for traces of the Huns, it is better to burn the sheep plate directly......
He was tied to the back of a camel, and when he saw his former friend, who led the Han army to burn a sheep plate, his eyes were split, and he prayed to the Kunlun god in the sky all day, hoping that the Kunlun god could send a thunderbolt and burn the two Hun traitors alive.
It was already a little cold in the autumn wasteland, Huo Quzhi sat in the tent and roasted the fire, and used a knife to cut the leg of mutton and eat.
has been messing with Yun Lang for a long time, and he has requirements for the quality of food.
The lamb leg is grilled golden brown by charcoal, brushed with Yunlang's secret sauce, and then roasted over the fire to fully stimulate the flavor of the food and spices, and then eaten layer by layer.
When Li Dang came in, he naturally took a leg of lamb from the plate on the side and learned to roast it.
Zhao Ponu was a little cringe, and the whip marks on his face had not yet gone down.
Huo Quzhi looked at Zhao Ponu, and threw the freshly roasted leg of lamb in his hand to Zhao Ponu, which was regarded as an apology.
Zhao Ponu was overjoyed when he received the leg of mutton, so he took the leg of mutton to Li Kang's side and learned from Li Kang to eat the leg of mutton.
He knew that he had been beaten extremely wrongly, and that wherever the army went, there could be no Huns within a radius of two hundred miles, and he almost dared to vouch for this with his head.
Without the Huns, you can't conjure up the Huns out of thin air, right?
When Yun Lang gave Huo Quzhi as a long history, Huo Qubing was not so irritable, and when he changed Nie Yi as a long history, it was useless at all, and even the general's anger could not be suppressed, causing the brothers to suffer.
Sixty-seven people were killed, and the general gave up the pointless search.
It is impossible to ask General Huo to apologize, even if the general makes a mistake, even in front of His Majesty, he never says a soft word.
His attitude is very clear, if you want Lao Tzu's life, you take it, and you want Lao Tzu to apologize, this is impossible.
So every time the emperor had to beat him up in person, it was considered to vent his anger, no matter how much mistake the general made, it was all a beating, including the last time he braved the world's disapproval to write to the emperor to divide the three kings and set up the crown prince.
Just now, General Huo Da rewarded half of the crippled leg of mutton and had already apologized, so Zhao Ponu's heart was warm...... It would be nice to be rewarded with another sip of wine.
Next to the brazier, there is also a pot-bellied kettle made of silver, the lid of this kettle is said to use a new process in Yun's workshop - thread, as long as you twist it slightly, the lid and the flask will be connected together, no matter how bumpy, it will not leak.
Li Kang also has such a kettle, but the only person who can hold a special spirit in the kettle is General Huo.
Zhao Ponu is a person who is addicted to alcohol, since he entered the wasteland, he has not drunk a sip of wine, and now, smelling the strong aroma of wine from the open kettle, his Adam's apple is moving up and down, saliva overflows his mouth, and a bite of a leg of mutton can wash the leg of mutton with saliva.
"Just take a sip! Disgusting look! ”
Huo Quzhi casually threw the wine jug to Zhao Ponu, Zhao Ponu was overjoyed, and was about to reach out to take it, but found that the wine jug was grabbed by the general's guards who carried water hyacinth.
In Zhao Ponu's hateful gaze, the guard took out a fist-sized porcelain cup from his arms, poured a full glass of wine and handed it to Zhao Ponu, seeing that Li Kang was also looking at him, he took out a porcelain cup from his arms again and filled it with wine and handed it to Li Kang.
Huo Quzhi smiled and pointed at the general: "Don't look at this guy's surname Huo, in fact, his surname is Yun." ”
Li Kang, Zhao Po slave Yan can not know the importance of this general, you must know that Yun Lang guy took the twenty-seven members of this family to live in the Yun family, and the fool knows it, but Fan Huo is sick and has a little problem, and the crazy Yun Lang will be strange if he doesn't chop the twenty-seven mouths of his family into meat sauce.
If Huo Qu returns safely...... This guy's family will immediately become a monopoly, and there will be an official reward.
Therefore, the past of Huo Qubing eating a pot of rice and drinking a sip of water with the soldiers disappeared.
Even if it was Li Kang, Zhao Ponu couldn't drink with Huo Quzhi in a wine jug.
"Say whatever you want."
Huo Qubing got himself a leg of mutton to bake again, their military rations had already been eaten, and now they are still eating the cattle and sheep left by the clan.
Li Dare pondered the vocabulary and said: "When I got up this morning, there were already frost flowers on the stone, and I thought it was time for us to go back to Yangguan to repair." ”
Zhao Ponu didn't care about tasting the aroma of wine, and also followed Li Kang's words: "According to the experience of the last general in the north, in another fifteen days, the stream will freeze, and it is still too late to rush back to Yangguan to avoid the cold." ”
"What if the Huns escaped?" Huo Qu was unmoved.
"We have burned thirty-one sheep pans, spanning 1,100 miles, which is already a moat for the Huns.
The soldiers did not carry winter clothes, and the lower officials thought that the military goal had been achieved, and they should return to Junyangguan as soon as possible to avoid the cold. ”
Nie Yi opened the curtain of the military tent and walked in, smelled the aroma of wine, and reached out to ask for his share.
The general had no choice but to pour Nie Yi a glass of wine, and then walked out with the flask in his arms.
The general's wine was not for drinking at all, it was for cleaning wounds, and he didn't bring much at all.
Huo Quzhi said: "How long can the soldiers support?" ”
Zhao Ponu shook his head and said: "It's been four months since I came out, and I'm already sleepy, and if I continue to search, there will be unexpected battle damage." ”
Huo Quzhi said: "Leave my headquarters and soldiers, and the rest will return to Yangguan to avoid the cold." ”
After the military order was issued, Huo Quzhi continued to be busy eating, and he had to eat more when the weather was cold.
Nie Yi gave Zhao Ponu, Li Dare Nunu, motioned for the two of them to go out, and saw that he and Huo Qu were the only ones left in the tent, so he said: "Your Majesty has a will, and the general is not allowed to go his own way." ”
Huo Quai's hand was reached.
Nie Yi sighed and took out a will from his arms and put it in Huo Quzhi's hands.
After Huo Quzhi saw the will, he closed the will and put it back in his arms, and then looked at Nie Yi and said: "You know that a fart is bent on going his own way, whether you should obey the will in the future is up to me." ”
Nie Yi's outstretched hand retracted helplessly, patted his head and said, "I knew it was the result." ”
Huo Quzhi sneered: "Since you know, you shouldn't take it out." ”
"Since the general is going to continue to stay in the wasteland, the lower official thinks that he should bring the land branch and Yiji.
After talking about the training of the lower officials, these two can be trusted, and at the same time, the lower officials will also stay to help the general. ”
Huo Quzhi said in a dispensable tone: "You should actually follow Yun Lang, and you should be able to live a very pleasant military career with him."
Follow me, there is no good fruit to eat on the battlefield, although with me there are victories to fight, and there will be rich rewards in the future.
But before you do, you'd better save your life. ”
