After more than half a year, the former Huayin County and the current Dingrong City have been restored to their original appearance. However, most of the houses damaged by the war have been renovated, and people have returned to their old jobs. The common people found a problem, and after such a catastrophe, their lives may be better. There is no other reason, except for the officials and gentry who live in the county, most of the others are engaged in some business. In the past, their customers were almost all residents of the city, but now it is different, Xu Zhijun has tens of thousands of horses here, although those who are soldiers have food and clothing, they have to have a place to spend when they receive military salaries, right? So, people who were not originally from Huayin County also moved over. There are also some Shaanxi merchants, and even Jingzhao's Dajia also ran to Dingrong like a cat smelling salted fish, but they are definitely not in the business of being soldiers.

There are many of them, and there are not many inns and restaurants in Dingrong City, and they have suffered a military disaster, so these outsiders can only live in private houses. Don't be suspicious, it's not cheap, you have to pay a fixed price and immediately drive you away, and some people are rushing to live. The residents of Dingrong muttered for a while, how could this small place suddenly become fragrant and sweet? It doesn't matter if you don't understand it, you can make money if you have it.

In this way, Xu Wei explained the matter of finding a restaurant to Zhang Qing, but it was a bitter thing. Run all over Dingrong City, gather a total of three restaurants with a slightly larger scale, and there are no empty seats at night, all of them are booked. What's more, Xu Wei invited commanders at all levels to the banquet, Hu Jie was the commander, the deputy commander, the Marquis of Yu, the eight commanders, and some civil officials, medical officers, and not twenty or thirty people? Where to go? Later, I found a store that had just opened, and I hadn't even taken the name of the store yet, so I was able to make a bag of it. was so anxious that Zhang Qingzhen wanted to reveal the identity of the Zhijun Yamen, but after thinking about it, it was still not good to use power to suppress people.

Just wanted to leave, the shopkeeper chased him out, smiled so much that his eyes couldn't see, and asked, this official is Lord Zhang of the Zhijun Yamen, right? Zhang Qing was stunned and said no. The shopkeeper smiled even brighter, what did the adults pretend? It's an adult's extravagance, and I smelled it before I entered the store. No matter what, you set the hall tonight, and my head is all empty for you. Ask more, are you a treat or Xu Zhijun...... Now that people recognize it, Zhang Qing can't admit it, but he still refuses. The shopkeeper was anxious, and said that it was not what I meant, but that the officials who had reserved a seat here tonight were deliberately giving in. After pushing it a few more times, it was difficult to refuse, Zhang Qing agreed, and wanted to meet the official who had reserved a seat, but the shopkeeper said that the other party had already gone out.

Before it got dark, Hujie's officers arrived one after another. This store doesn't have a name, so I'm afraid it's hard to find if you come first, but it's convenient for those who come later. Just keep your ears up and listen, there's the loudest roar there, that's it. Yang Yan arrived with Ma Tai, stood at the door and looked at it for a long time, and said, "What kind of broken place do you say Zhang San is looking for!" I don't have a name, so it's easy to find my brother! "His left eye is gone, and he was so fierce at the time, but now he is as virtuous as ever, and he is as virtuous as before.

As he was talking, a head poked out from upstairs, but it was Zhang Qing: "What the hell are you muttering?" I heard it all upstairs, come up! ”

Stepping into the store, there is a wine doctor diligently executed, an adult on the left, a hero on the right, all the way upstairs. I saw that the hall on the second floor was wide and bright, with seven or eight seats, and some cold vegetables and game. Zhang Qing, Wang Yan, the Wu brothers, and several commanders have arrived, and they are blowing nonsense there, and the sound is like thunder. Seeing the two of them coming up, Wu Jie first quipped: "Look, the one-eyed wolf is here." As soon as these words came out, the hall was full of laughter. There is an allusion in this, Yang Yan Xiaoxishan lost his left eye in the first battle, and he was nicknamed the one-eyed tiger. But he felt that Xu Weihua's name was Zijin Tiger, and it didn't seem appropriate to call him a tiger himself, so how about a one-eyed wolf? As a result, Xu Wei replied to him, why don't you call it a white-eyed wolf? This incident was a joke in the army for a while.

Yang Yan laughed and said to Wu Jinqing: "What's wrong with the one-eyed? Let's put the arrow and aim in the future, and don't close our eyes. As soon as the words fell, there was another burst of laughter. After sitting down, I chatted with my comrades about the military camp, and everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they never mentioned the Battle of Xiaoxishan, which was sad.

As he was talking energetically, he heard a voice from downstairs: "I'm sorry, I'm a step late." ”

Hearing this, everyone present immediately got up and turned to meet each other. I saw Xu Wei grabbing a scarf on his head, wearing a straight jacket, with a gold belt around his waist, striding up. Look, the family is different, two days after I came back, I cleaned up neatly. It's like our group of singles, with a sloppy appearance.

The officers sang in unison, roaring so loudly that even the pedestrians passing by on the street were startled, asking each other, what is going on with this shop? Xu Wei made a square move, went straight to the first table seat, and then made a circle of motion, and then sat down. When he was seated, the generals were not so poor and delicate, and each of them sat down with a brother who knew each other. The guys in the shop came up with a steady stream of hot dishes, and they suddenly felt strange. Just now, the gang of soldiers also shook the roof tiles, why did they suddenly fall silent, and they sat upright one by one, not squinting.

Xu Wei obviously didn't want to make the atmosphere so serious, this time he went to Hedong to solicit discussions, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and the commanders at all levels made great efforts, which was not easy, so he should indulge in drinking and singing for a while. Then he poured a full bowl of wine, got up and said loudly: "Come! Fill it all up for me! I'll start with the ugly words, and if there is one who can straighten his back and walk out tonight, tomorrow he will go and get twenty military sticks, and let Mattei take charge of the sticks himself. ”

When the officers heard this, they laughed, and they got up to pour wine, Wang Yan said with a smile: "Ma Er's divine power is amazing, let him hold the stick, and his eyes will be blocked, haha." ”

Zhang Qingbai glanced at him: "What about eating, can you say a word of Sven?" ”

"Hey, we haven't read a few words, and we can't learn that Sven language, don't you say the brothers?" Xu Wei asked loudly with a wine bowl.

"Yes!" The generals responded with a bang, and the atmosphere suddenly rose.

"Come on! This bowl of wine, I salute the brothers, this Hedong battle has played the prestige of our Hujie army! Shaanxi Xuanfu Yamen is discussing merit, and it will be rewarded in a few days. Let's celebrate in advance today, come on, do it! Xu Weihao was angry. The generals also roared "", and the hall was filled with the sound of cooing and drinking.

Xu Wei didn't stop for a moment, and immediately filled the second bowl: "When the national disaster is at the head, the golden dog is rampant, and all the brothers gather under the Hujie battle flag, and they are the same as my Xu Jiu's own brothers." It's good to do it twice, and then do it! ”

When the officers of the first group saw this, they were secretly happy. On weekdays, the alcohol ban in the army is very strict, and it seems that Xu Zhijun wants me to wait for a drink today! and the second bowl was crisp and clean.

When it came to the third bowl, the smile on Xu Wei's face disappeared. The movement was not so smooth, slowly poured the wine, raised his hands flat, and said: "This bowl, I salute the brothers who can't come back." It's just a small sentence, nothing superfluous, but in an instant, the lively hall was suddenly solemn. This was the last thing the Hujie officers wanted to talk about right now. Since the Jingsui Battalion, I have never fought such a hard battle, and nearly half of the casualties have been lost! Everyone is a brother who scoops food in a pot, and when he goes out of the city in the morning, he still walks side by side, and when he returns to the city in the evening, he has become a cold corpse, separated from heaven and man forever...... But what can be done, to be a soldier to eat enough and protect the territory and the people, sooner or later there will be such a day.

Xu Wei took a step back, spilled a small half of the wine on the ground, and said in a low voice: "Brothers, the heroic spirit is not far away, if you smell the fragrance of this wine, come back." After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank down.

After drinking three bowls of wine, Xu Wei deliberately said: "Say it first, don't pour me today." ”

Zhang Qing knew what he meant, and immediately said: "Is it drunk and not allowed to enter the door?" ”

Yang Yanzheng was sad, and burst out laughing when he heard this: "Haha, just the ninth sister-in-law's skills, if the ninth brother is drunk, he must be beaten down!" ”

The atmosphere was lively again, and it was a rare opportunity to sarcastically mock the commanders, and the officers joked one after another, and finally heard Xu Wei laugh and scold: "What the hell are you talking about?" Am I like the fearful one? ”

"Like!" The subordinates responded in unison. Xu Wei couldn't hold back a laugh, and waved and said, "Get out!" Drink your wine! Don't save me money! ”

After a while, the sound of shouting, fist fighting, and the sound of cups and bowls colliding became one. These people live with their heads pinned to their belts, some today and no tomorrow, and some are drunk today and drunk today. The dead are gone, and the living have to continue to live, right? Xu Wei toasted from table to table, and the deafening shout was so loud that he couldn't hear what the person in front of him was saying, only nodded. The martial arts will have a meal, which is not as good as the gathering of literati, there is no wind and moon, there is no spring and snow, and some are just full of pride and enthusiasm.

After the seven or eight tables were served, Xu Wei returned to the seat and patted his stomach, as if he was a little drunk, and said to Wu Jie beside him: "Look, it's all wine, you have to carry me back later." ”

Wu Jiemei smiled, and filled him again: "Let's talk about it first, if someone drives my brother out with a broom, it can be regarded as a battle injury." ”

Xu Wei laughed, touched one with him, and only drank half of it and squirted out, Wu Jinqing didn't embarrass him, after making a bowl alone, he sighed, and then stared at the bowl and said: "Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people are still fighting in ancient times?" ”

Next to him, Wu Lan took a bowl of wine and drank it, and took over the conversation: "Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis!" As soon as these words came out, the sharpness was revealed!

Xu Wei appreciated these words very much, picked up the remaining half bowl of wine and said, "Okay!" Rushing to Tang Qing's arrogance, I pinched my nose and drank this half bowl! ”

The staggered chips, the spittle flies, and the hot-blooded man's true colors after drinking are revealed. Some people shouted loudly and were in high spirits, some people buried their heads in eating vegetables, said little, and even drank half of the wine and cried loudly, grieving for the fallen brothers. Whether you are in high spirits or depressed, there is only one purpose, to vent. All the emotions that had been pent up on the battlefield exploded at this time...... It was dark, the full moon was high, and the hustle and bustle of the restaurant gradually quieted down. Those who couldn't stand it urinated first, and those who were hard to hold on to the back also had knotted tongues. After Wu Jie's farewell, there were only four left in the hall: Xu Wei, Zhang Qing, Yang Yan, and Ma Tai.

Yang staggered, and staggered to help Xu Wei, and shouted vaguely: "Brother, go, brother, brother will send you back, I, I'm not afraid that the ninth sister-in-law will take a broom to beat me......"

Xu Wei leaned against the wall, closed his eyes, and said with a mouth full of wine: "Pull it down, it's time to go back, what's the return?" Let's go, go to sleep in the camp! As soon as he heard this, Zhang Qing, who was lying on the table, and Ma Tai, who was lying on the stool, immediately came to his senses, and the four brothers hooked their shoulders and staggered downstairs, and the shopkeeper hurriedly sent them out of the door, repeatedly telling them that it was difficult to walk at night, and that the adults should be careful.

The inhabitants had already fallen asleep, and it was dark outside, and if it weren't for the moon hanging in the sky, they really couldn't see their fingers. The four of them lined up, you helped me, I hugged you, and staggered towards the direction of the barracks.

"It's been more than two years since I came out of Xiajin, who would have thought that our brothers would have today......" Zhang Qing drank high and sighed sincerely.

Yang Yan couldn't even raise his head: "Shut up, shut up, shut up!" Don't sigh, listen, don't understand! ”

"Not only that, it's today, this situation, sooner or later, I'll take and bring my brothers to ......" Xu Wei's speech was a little unclear, and the others didn't understand the words too well.

After swaying out of the city, the wine came up, and he couldn't walk. All four of them fell on the side of the road, lying in the grass, listening to the noise of the unknown insects, and looking at the full moon in the sky, and the breeze coming from time to time.

Yang Yan grabbed a stone and threw it back, heard a sound of water, and hurriedly jumped up, hey, why is it still a small ditch behind this? Take a closer look, hey, why is there a moon in this water? Pulled Ma Tai up and shouted: "Look, there is a moon in the water, dare, dare to fish?" ”

Mattei shook it around like an unpoured urn, and said casually, "Why don't you dare?" If you dare me, I will dare! ”

Yang Yan pushed him: "You, you carry my belt, I'll go down, go down and fish." ”

Zhang Qing didn't know when he was about to get up, and echoed: "Then I'll mention Ma Er...... No, Ma Erte is fat and strong, you last, I will mention it, and I will mention Yang Da. Just like that, the three of them were like monkeys, one pulling the other, Yang Yan really leaned down and fished into the water with his hands.

Xu Wei heard the movement, sat up and took a look, and suddenly clapped his hands and smiled: "I just said that you are three pinched, and the pinch bird is high, right?" Also, it's hard-mouthed! The moon, the moon, the moon is clearly in the sky, and you go to the water, what about the chicken feathers in the water? Look, look at me! With that, he struggled to get up, and searched the ground with his head down. I finally found something and happily picked it up, but it was a branch.

"Look, watch me poke it, poke it down!" Anyway, jump your feet and poke the moon there.

Suddenly, there was a plopping sound, but it was Zhang Qing's hand that let go, and Yang Yan plunged into the ditch. Mattei exclaimed "Ah yes" and hurriedly said, "You steady!" I know how to water! After speaking, he jumped down, what kind of physique was he? It's a splash! But after hitting the soles of my feet, I looked at it, how did this water reach my thighs? Turning his head to look at Yang Yan, he was digging with the dog there. Hearing another plop, Zhang Qing also jumped down. These three were stirred by the water, and most of them woke up, looking for them, how could there be one less? When I climbed up, I found that Xu Wei was still jumping there and stabbing the moon......
