Chapter 530: A Day in the Barracks

When he started in Liaodong, Ye Xun spent almost half of his time in the barracks, but as his status became higher and higher, he had more and more things to worry about, and the number of times he came to the barracks became less and less.

In fact, Ye Xun has always liked military life, nervous, regular, and the most important thing is that there are not so many deceitful people in the military camp, but they are tired.

But what's wrong with being tired? Who doesn't get tired? Comfort is reserved for a dead man.

During the Chinese New Year, in order to relieve the homesickness of the soldiers, there were many celebrations in the barracks, especially after Ye Xun arrived, which pushed the activities to a climax.

Compare riding, archery, wrestling, and the tug-of-war competition proposed by Ye Xun and so on.

Not to mention Ye Xun and ordinary soldiers, even when ordinary people arrive at the barracks, they can also mobilize their emotions.

The earth-shattering cheers and cheers came and went, if it weren't for the limited number of musical cells, Ye Xun would have planned to make a military song.

Equestrianism and wrestling are the strengths of Mongolian soldiers, but in terms of archery, Han soldiers are not lagging behind.

After a few competitions, each battalion also fought equally, and in the end, Ye Xun was simply the referee, and each battalion selected 20 strong men for a tug-of-war competition.

With Ye Gonggong, the first person in the dynasty and a god-like existence in the hearts of the soldiers, as the referee, the atmosphere couldn't help but become more enthusiastic.

Soon, according to the order of the draw, two teams of soldiers with big shoulders and round waists competed in front of Ye Xun.

"Come on, come on..."

The soldiers shouted hoarsely, and Ye Xun's voice was about to smoke, but this is not important, what matters is the atmosphere, the cohesion of the soldiers.

"Oh! ... We won..."

The tug-of-war competition was eventually won by Dou Chengwu.

Looking at the cheering subordinates, Dou Chengwu grinned and scolded with a smile: "Rabbit cubs, good job, don't embarrass Lao Tzu, go back and add food"

"Oh! ...”

In the cheers, Zhang Qi and other generals invited Ye Xun into the big tent of the Chinese army, and only tea was prepared in the big tent, but there was no wine and food, because according to Ye Xun's instructions, a bonfire dinner was held at night, so the wine banquet during the day was exempted.

Alcohol is forbidden in the barracks during normal times, and it is only on this day of the year that you can drink a small amount of alcohol.

After laughing for a while, Altan suddenly said: "Father-in-law, don't have a reluctant request, I wonder if my father-in-law can agree?" ”

Ye Xun knew what he wanted to say, and smiled: "What! In a hurry again? The new regulations of the Ministry of War, all soldiers are stationed on the border for one year, and the garrison is in the place for two years, this regulation cannot be changed, you are all from Liaodong and I have to fight together, but you must take the lead in implementing the regulations of the Ministry of War! ”

I don't want Ye Xun to misunderstand what Altan means today.

I saw Altan nodding and said: "My father-in-law has already said that the iron camp and the flowing water soldiers, what General Mo wants to say is not about the change of defense of the army, General Mo wants to take a leave of absence with you and go back to Tieling to pick up his mother, come, come to officiate at the wedding of the last general."

Listening to Altan's words, Ye Xun was stunned for a moment, and then said with great joy: "This is a good thing!" This leave must be approved, not only to give you leave, but also to give you a big gift on the day you get married."

After saying this, Altan's face, which was not white, turned even red, and the military general was already clumsy in words, and he was even more speechless this time.

Li Guangrong on the side teased: "How many wives do you have!" Why haven't I seen you take it so seriously before? I also want to take my aunt over, I know, you hooked up with that lady in the capital, right? ”

With Li Guangrong's teasing, the generals also laughed, in fact, with the improvement of status, not only did everyone buy a house in Beijing, but also got several concubines, and the atmosphere was like this, Ye Xun couldn't help it.

It's just that as Li Guangrong said, if it weren't for the other party's status, I'm afraid that Altan wouldn't alarm his mother.

"How can you say it's a hookup? Our General Altan is also a talented person and has great achievements, and he can be the wife of General Altan, so I have to say that the other party is a high climber! By the way, what is that young lady? Speaking out also makes us all envious."

It's not a march to fight, men are together, women are also an eternal topic, and they are all comrades-in-arms, there are good things, of course everyone has to share them.

was teased by everyone, Altan, a Mongolian man, was almost speechless again, and it took a while before he said loudly: "Once I went into the city and happened to meet a girl who was flirting, I couldn't look past it, so I taught the girl a lesson, and then the girl's father found me and said that he wanted to marry his daughter to me, he was an official of the Ministry of Rites, a scholarly family, so I..."

Before Altan finished speaking, everyone laughed again, not to mention, a ceremonial official can take the initiative to marry a general, so it's no wonder that Altan should pay attention to it.

You must know that although Ye Xun has promoted the status of a military general, the idea of being a noble and a military warrior has lasted for hundreds of years, and few scholars are willing to marry their daughters to military generals, let alone a foreign general.

However, with the improvement of status, Ye Xun's generals are becoming more and more confident, and now there are civil officials who can take the initiative to come to their homes, which is also a recognition of their status, of course, it is not excluded that they want to climb Ye Xun's big tree through this move, but what can that be? This shows that they are following the right person.

Ye Xun said with a smile: "Old man Yuan of the Ministry of Rites just finished giving me a lesson yesterday, he wants to know that his subordinates have recruited you as a son-in-law, he has to be angry, tell me what the official's surname is, I have to go back and warn Old Man Yuan, it's not okay to be embarrassed."

Hearing Ye Xun say this, Altan said with a grateful face: "His surname is Zhu, and he is a member of the official worship department, and he is from Wupin."

From the civil official of the fifth grade, it sounds like the official position is not big, but if it was in the past, the general soldier of the first grade would not be taken into account by others, so when Altan talked about the official position of the old man, his face was not without pride.

Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Rites, surnamed Zhu.

Ye Xun nodded, keeping this name in mind, there are many officials with the surname Zhu in the court, and it is not that the surname Zhu is the royal family.

Before I knew it, it was dark, and huge bonfires were lit in the open space of the barracks.

This is the favorite program of Mongolian soldiers, as the bonfire is lit, groups of Mongolian soldiers dance with singing and dancing, and many Han soldiers join in.

The bonfire dinner undoubtedly pushed the celebration to a climax again, and Ye Xun was not idle, as soon as he arrived at the sidelines, he was pulled into the circle by the soldiers.

What kind of dance does Ye Xun do! The clumsy appearance immediately caused the soldiers to laugh, but fortunately, such a dance has no technical content, and it will not take long to get used to it.

Not to mention, after dancing for a while, Ye Xun liked this activity a little, at least it was much better than sitting there and fighting wine.

In the sky-high firelight, the laughter of the barracks was heard far and wide, and even the soldiers patrolling the city heard it...
