Chapter 104: The Best of Both Worlds
Two days passed in this seemingly calm state, and the cloudy sky began to drift with light snow again.
Thanks to the agreed date with Lu Fang, Qin Shen no longer had to accompany him on patrol every day, which gave him more time to train Xiaobai in various ways.
Maybe it's the nature of the wolf, or its excellent genes, in short, Xiaobai is extremely smart, and any command can be memorized three or five times, so that he can command like an arm.
This result naturally made him feel very pleased, so he was even more energetic in training, and he hated to teach it all his life's learning, so that it could completely replace itself and let himself get out freely.
Of course, this is not possible.
However, the interaction between one man and one wolf for fun somewhat made him forget some of his sorrows.
The tent was as warm as spring.
Qin Shen waited for Xiaobai to take the small piece of meat in his hand into his mouth and chew it heavily, and stroked its soft little head lovingly with his backhand.
"Let's da~let's da~"
In less than a moment, Xiaobai swallowed the raw meat, licked his lips and looked up at him pitifully and a little expectantly.
You're really gobbling it up! Qin Shen smiled knowingly, reached out and picked up the brush that was usually used to practice calligraphy on the case and ran into the distance.
Without any command, just a slight gesture with one look, Xiaobai immediately ran towards the place where the brush landed, and then when he was about to take it, he suddenly stopped his movements, showing an alert look and listening.
Qin Shen moved his body slightly and straightened his body.
Suddenly, there was a subtle "creaking" sound from outside the tent from a distance.
"Boom! Boom! With the sound of heavy stamping, Cao Jin's vague scolding to express his dissatisfaction with the ghost weather came from outside the curtain.
Xiao Bai retracted the action of the ear, picked up the brush and returned to Qin Shen's side unhurriedly, put the pen in his hand and put the piece of meat in front of him, but he was not in a hurry to swallow it, just lying on his stomach and looking at the door.
A gust of cold wind hit, and Qu Han, Cao Jin and others rushed in.
"Hey! Or is it warmer here for the general, this is different with or without the care of the girl! ”
As soon as he stepped into the tent, Cao Jin was full of emotion before he sat down, and then shook his body, rubbed his hands and picked a position closest to the stove to sit uninvited, just like at home, and he didn't care whether the sitting posture was indecent.
Several people looked at each other helplessly, shook their heads and laughed, and sat down one after another.
Qin Shen glanced at him angrily: "Isn't your Arjuna a girl?" ”
"She?" Cao Jin looked at him in disbelief and laughed at himself: "How can she be as attentive to me as a picturesque general?" I got up early and went to the resting place of those women, not to mention, and I didn't even prepare a stove, alas......"
Sighing and shaking his head in distress, he complained half-truthfully: "Don't hide it from the general, I'm afraid that she will stab me to death in the middle of the night when I sleep now...... Woohoo, little white dog, come and play with your Uncle Cao! ”
Xiaobai seemed to be indifferent, and he didn't even look at him.
"Hey!" Cao Jin was immediately dissatisfied, frowned and pretended: "This little white dog is really tall...... High...... High ......"
As he spoke, he scratched his head and looked at Qin Shen as if he couldn't remember the words for a while, and when he was about to open his mouth to ask, he suddenly slapped his head: "Gao Leng!" Hey! Little white dog, don't you see that Arjuna is not indifferent to me, but she also follows the dog's eyes to look down on people? ”
"It's a wolf!" Qin Shen finally couldn't help but correct a sentence.
Cao Jin grinned nonchalantly and said indifferently, "What's the difference between this wolf and a dog?" It's not all the same! On the contrary, the girls are very different, and they are all girls, why is there Arjuna like this, and they are so picturesque......"
Qin Shen glanced at him, and completely gave up the name of the wolf dog that has been corrected repeatedly.
As for his affair with Arjuna, there is nothing he can do.
After all, the family is a family, and he knows very little about the private life of the other party, and it is inconvenient to listen to it, so he can only interrupt the other party's complaining chatter at the moment, and think of the best way to comfort himself: "It's good to have a child." ”
Cao Jin stopped in a daze, and his face gradually showed a look of deep understanding, but after a while, he sighed again, scratched his head and said, "Let's talk about it when we settle down later." ”
Now the situation is well known to everyone.
Qin Shen sighed secretly, shook off the troubles aroused, and glanced at a few people: "You are waiting for this moment, is there something wrong?" ”
Hearing this, when several people looked at each other but did not answer, Cao Jin sighed impatiently and said with a grin: "Let me tell me!" In fact, it was about those women, and when I was still in the city, I wanted to remind the general that it was not appropriate to bring these women back to the camp, but you were at the time, and you were ...... On top of the anger, I will no longer speak, you see all kinds of problems are now revealed! ”
Then he looked at Zhu San and said: "Even an honest and careful person like Zhu San is very exhausted to deal with, not to mention a vulgar person like me, you see that Zhu San should have been patrolling the city at this moment, but Xue Yu was busy replacing him and going to patrol the city...... Tsk......"
The teasing sigh sighed a few times, and continued: "On this cold and freezing day, I would rather patrol the city than control those women, the general can imagine how painful we are, it is really ......"
As he spoke, he scratched his head and scratched his cheeks and thought about it, and finally remembered to conclude: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise!" If it is near, it is not inferior, and if it is far away, it is resentful. ”
"Yo! Knowledge has risen a lot! Qin Shen glanced at him teasingly, pondered for a moment in his complacent eyebrows, looked at a few people and asked, "Then according to what you have seen, what should you do now?" ”
The next few people looked at each other again.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shen naturally knew that there was nothing they could do, and for himself, the past two days were also bitter.
After Qu Han's statistics that day, except for a very few people who carried letters back and waited to pick them up, the rest were all willing to stay in the army.
And when you enter the Qin Shen army, you are not a prostitute, you only need to do what you can to get food, clothing and peace, in this world where you don't have enough to eat and even the people are scattered, why not do it?
However, this made Qin Shen and the others suffer, after all, as a woman, things always seem to be a little more.
But these women are not soldiers, so they can't restrain everyone with ordinary military law, and besides, all the women have just experienced a catastrophe, just like frightened birds, and it is really inconvenient to threaten and intimidate them with fierce words.
What is even more exaggerated is that they will go to the city to pick up ...... in their spare time, under the guidance of the picturesque and picturesque people who are aroused by infinite interest Oh, and brought back some people who were also lonely, so that now there are more than ten more women.
In the long run, the consequences are unimaginable.
Although Qin Shen also openly and secretly told the two girls not to continue like this, it didn't seem to have any effect on the picturesque and full of interest.
Alas!
How good is that? Qin Shen secretly sighed in distress.
"Actually, I have a suggestion, but I don't know if it's appropriate or not?" Just when everyone was at a loss, Qu Han, who was silently watching, suddenly spoke.
Qin Shen was stunned for a moment, looked at him and said, "Brother Qu, please speak." ”
"Brother Qin might as well organize them." Qu Han said bluntly, and continued: "I heard that they are picturesque and quite good at archery and archery, and Arjuna is a grassland woman, so you might as well organize them and hand them over to the three of them for restraint training, so it will save a lot of trouble." ”
"Becoming an army?"
Qin Shen pondered for a moment, in fact, he hadn't thought about this method, but it was incompatible with this era, and he had never revealed this intention, and when he heard the other party mention it at this moment, he threw out the question in his heart: "Is this too abrupt?" ”
Qu Han smiled faintly, shook his head slightly, and said: "No, first of all, regardless of the stepmother Xin, just now on the grassland, there is also a Su Bu Ju Ciyun who once led the troops to fight in the Quartet, but now he is in Chang'an." ”
"You know her?" Qin Shen spoke in surprise.
Stepmother Xin, whose real name is Nuhao, China's first ancient female general, he also went to Yinxu to visit the tomb of Nuhao in his later life, and he didn't feel the slightest surprise when he heard it at this moment, but when he heard the other party suddenly mention the woman, he was slightly stunned and understood, but he was taken aback.
Qu Han was also stunned by his reaction, and after thinking about it for a while, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, but I just heard about it, it's just ......."
As he spoke, he looked at him suspiciously and said, "Brother Qin, doesn't he know her?" ”
"Hehe......" Qin Shen smiled to hide his past and explained, "I've only heard of it." ”
Qu Han took a deep look at him, and then continued the previous topic: "It's not an army, Brother Qin doesn't have the right to form an army, so how can he talk about forming an army?" It's just to let the picturesque restrain everyone to train, one will not be chaotic, and the other is to let everyone learn some archery skills, and in this world, there will be a little more self-protection ability, which is really the best of both worlds. ”
Qin Shen thought for a moment, and said with a plan in his heart: "No! According to Brother Qu, he said to the outside world that he was a picturesque female guard. ”
Then he looked at Cao Jin and instructed: "You go to the city to find the head of the military treasury to get some guns, swords, bows and crossbows and armor in the form of damage reports, and then take advantage of the winter to have nothing to do, pick some soldiers to assist the picturesque and teach everyone to bow and ride and shoot, so that they don't run around." ”
Seeing that they were finally able to get rid of this headache-inducing burden, several people's faces were suddenly full of joy, and their orders to him were immediately implemented like hearing the sound of a fairy, and they happily assigned tasks and left the tent.
Alas! Is it all worth it?
Looking at the figures of everyone leaving, Qin Shen sighed secretly, shook off his complicated thoughts and prepared to go to find a picturesque explanation.
Seeing him stepping out, Xiao Bai also immediately stood up and followed closely behind him.
How do you tell them? During the meditation, Qin Shen had just lifted the curtain and before he could take a step, he was defenseless and almost collided with the person facing him.
"Oops!"
A woman screamed and took two steps back, smiled apologetically when she found out that it was him, then patted her chest for a moment, and said: "The slave has seen the general, and when the slave returned to the camp, someone outside the camp asked the slave to hand over this silk cloth to the general. ”
Qin Shen stretched out his hand to take the silk cloth handed over, and after she left, he slowly unfolded it suspiciously, only to see the book-
"Please move five miles east of the city to say goodbye."
