Chapter 118: Fangling Camp
Cao De stared at the cold north wind and drove for two days, and finally came to the Shangyong camp. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Then, Cao De came to the last stop of the trip, Fangling Daying.
The Fangling camp was built next to the city of Fangling. When the site was first selected, Fangling City was said to be the first transportation artery connected to Jingzhou. It is advantageous to build a large camp here, both for expedition and defense. Therefore, Cao De did not hesitate to build the Fangling camp according to the scale of the fortress.
Judging from the battle against the Yellow Turban Army, the Fangling battalion did play a very important role. When he first set out on the expedition, the materials needed for the march were first gathered in the Fangling camp, and then Cao De arrived and directly extracted the materials from the camp and started. After that, although Cao De has been feeding the war with war, and he has continued to send supplies back, the Fangling camp is still full of materials. Just in case.
Obviously, the precautions in the Fangling camp were not used, and supplies were constantly being transported back from the front line. The materials that were sent back were also piled up in the Fangling camp. After being counted and recorded, it is sent to various warehouses in Hanzhong County.
In the entire Yellow Turban Campaign, the Fangling camp completely played the role of a transit station.
What's more, Cao De was when Julu received the holy decree to go to Luoyang to be sealed. Cao De divided the army into two routes, one rushed back to Hanzhong, and the other had to abandon the established plan and return to Hanzhong after reaching the Tiger Prison Pass. The first stop of these two armies returning to Hanzhong also came to the Fangling camp. And then according to Cao De's previous orders. After arriving at the Fangling camp, the two armies immediately disbanded and went home to save their relatives.
The assembly time of the disbanded army was the twelfth day of the first month, and the time when Cao De arrived at the Fangling camp was the fourteenth day of the first month. Therefore, before Cao De arrived, the Fangling camp had already begun to prepare to welcome Cao De.
Cao De's convoy had shrunk by more than half after the first few stops. Therefore, although the road at this time is not easy to walk because of the heavy snowfall a year ago. But the speed at which the convoy was moving was not greatly affected.
When a big flag with the word 'Cao' on a red background appears on the horizon. In the Fangling camp, a horn sounded through the heavens and the earth. The soldiers, who had already been given the order, hurriedly carried their weapons at the moment when the horn sounded, got out of the warm room, and came to the martial arts arena.
As soon as the soldiers finished lining up, Cao Ren came to the general platform in the center of the martial arts arena wearing armor.
Cao Ren, looking around, said loudly: "The general is here, General Anbang is here!" The general was accompanied by wine and food. Let us greet the arrival of the general with the most majestic posture! ā
When the guards accompanying Cao De told Cao De that the Fangling camp had arrived. Cao De wrapped the cotton clothes sewn by Ren Hongchang and got out of the carriage.
The first thing Cao De saw when he got out of the carriage was a neat phalanx of a thousand soldiers. Flags are displayed, and swords and guns are everywhere. Cao De's heart warmed, and he strode forward to Cao Ren, who was standing at the front of the queue. Cao Ren clenched his fists and said loudly: "Welcome General!" ā
"Greetings to the General!" The uniform shouts of a thousand soldiers seem to have a groundbreaking momentum, which is shocking!
Cao De stretched out his palm and grabbed Cao Ren's hands, and the cold touch followed. Cao De's eyes couldn't help but be full of emotion. "You soldiers don't have to be polite."
Then, Cao De came to one of the soldiers in the queue, and Cao De looked at his immature face. "Is it cold or not?"
"General Hui, it's not cold!"
Cao De smiled, it's strange if it's not cold, I'm shivering with cold in two layers of cotton clothes, can you not be cold!
Then, Cao De waved his hand, "Don't freeze outside, soldiers, hurry back to the camp to warm up." Cao De knew that if he didn't leave, these soldiers would definitely not leave. So he raised his feet and strode along the passage left by the soldiers to the camp gate.
When Cao De stepped into the camp gate, he found that there were still 2,000 soldiers lined up neatly on both sides of the road. At this moment, the entire three thousand soldiers shouted loudly in unison: "The general is mighty! ā
Deafening shouts rang out through the sky, and weapons striking the ground were slammed. At this moment, Cao De seemed to have a lot of pride. Stride forward with your head held high.
Cao Ren, Jia Xu and Xu Shu, who were following behind Cao De, all smiled in unison. A mighty master should have this courage.
The queue of soldiers was lined up in front of the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao De strode to the front of the tent, turned around, looked at these unyielding soldiers, and said loudly: "I Cao De, my big man, there is such a lion, why worry that the world is not peaceful!" Strong, strong! Soldiers, defend the country, defend the border, and take the lead. With you, the great man is lucky! ā¦ā¦ā
Cao Deyang said a hundred crosses freely, only to feel that his blood was tumbling and his blood was surging. I can't wait to jump my horse and whip up immediately. And the soldiers who were the audience also responded in unison after Cao De's speech, "The Han is mighty, the general is mighty!" ā
Subsequently, after Cao De pacified the soldiers, he distributed the condolence materials he brought. The soldiers received the wine and meat and happily went to add food, and Cao De also dragged Cao Ren to get drunk!
Indeed, according to convention, as long as Cao De is happy, he must drink, and in this case, he will get drunk.
Cao De walked into the big tent of the Chinese army vertically, but he came out lying down. Not into a corpse, but into a puddle of mud.
During the banquet, Cao De couldn't help but think of a famous song in later generations, "Loyal to the Country" by virtue of the wine and the momentum of the army he saw just now.
"The wolf smoke rises, the rivers and mountains look north, the dragon rolls, and the horse neighs......
The horseshoe goes south and people look north, and people look north at the grass and yellow dust......
The dignified man wants to let the Quartet come to congratulate! ā
Cao De sang so hoarsely, so vicissitudes, so proud, so hard!
The lyrics of this song also coincide with the Yellow Turban Raid that ended not long ago. From the perspective of the overall situation, Cao De set out from the south to attack the north. And then from the north back to the south. And when the army returned to the division, it was a cold winter, the grass was green and yellow, and the dust was flying!
Although it was not the first time that all of you present had heard Cao De sing such a strange song, they still felt Cao De's feelings from Cao De's tone.
Especially the last sentence, "The dignified man wants to let the Quartet come to congratulate!" ā
Yes, thousands of brothers and sisters are buried in a foreign land, and thousands of brothers will never return home. Although Cao De in the previous life understood the truth that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, but now he can truly experience that feeling. Cao De really went back to the peaceful era of the previous life in the blink of an eye. Although the era was also cruel, it was not easy to feel that his siblings were stabbed to death by the enemy in front of his eyes.
Cao De was drunk, and he was so drunk. Drunk for your siblings, drunk for dry bones, and drunk for yourself! (To be continued.) )
