Chapter Forty-Nine: Ordering Labor Jujubes
I hurriedly followed out of the camp and shouted, "Labor order, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the camp today." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Why, you still want to detain people." Lao Zao said in surprise.
"How dare you," I said amiably and respectfully, "because it's late, and it's already dark before I get to Nanwang County, so why hurry to go, let's rest in the camp for the time being, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow." ”
"Presumably you have also heard that the White Turban Army is now rebelling, attacking cities and plundering land everywhere, occupying most of Donghai County, where do I have spare time to delay here, the things that Gongzi explained have not been completed, and I have to wait to be punished when I go back." Lao Zao said coldly.
"Hehe," I said with a smile, "Labor Order, my family's general banner is now angry, and he is angry, why not give him some time, let him ponder carefully, and maybe he will agree to the request of the Labor Order tomorrow, the problem will not be solved, why rush at this time, there will be no major incident." ”
The last sentence is the words that Lao Envoy Ling himself used, I will return it to him now, and give him an army, to see how he can give himself the steps, and sure enough, Lao Envoy Ling is a sleek man, and said: "Since this benevolent brother is so kind, it is better to rest here for one night, and it is not too late to leave tomorrow, so as not to sleep in the wilderness and suffer from the wind and cold." ”
At this time, the mountain happened to be outside my camp, and I called him over and told him to walk around the camp with the labor order, and I first went back to the camp of the general banner and said. I had just entered the tent when Mars gave me a cold look that gave me goosebumps all over my body, and the look was very unkind.
I came to the general flag and shouted, "General flag." ”
"You left him behind, Fire Spirit, you are becoming more and more unscrupulous now, you can do things on your own without asking me." Mars said coldly, turning his back to me, as if he didn't want to see my face.
"General Banner, what are you worried about, this is a great opportunity." I couldn't figure it out.
"Hmph, great opportunity, promised them, we will die very quickly, once we finish training, let us go to the battlefield, we will wait to be slaughtered." Mars said sinisterly.
"Wealth and danger, since Donghai County has shown us goodwill, why don't we make good use of it, what is there to worry about some things that have not happened yet, when the time comes, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and if we fail, it is a big deal to be a hero after eighteen years, if we succeed, our situation has changed dramatically." I spoke freely and boldly.
"If you succeed, you can get what you want, don't be afraid that they will cross the river and tear down the bridge when the time comes, as long as that prince does not die, we will never have a peaceful life, and we will never have a good life." Mars still can't get around the powerful prince, and his existence is a nightmare for Mars.
"General Banner, do you want to see the Donghai County Nest rebel, fight and lose, let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, right, in fact, this is the most undesirable strategy, and the White Turban Uprising will not succeed in the end." I paused and said eloquently.
I said bitterly: "In the end, it will be exterminated by the army sent by the royal capital, so the victory ultimately belongs to the side of Donghai County, and what are we doing now, watching Donghai County make a fool of it, although it has not fallen into the well, in fact, in the eyes of Donghai County, it is the fall of the well, and I think everyone knows what the fate of the person who falls into the well is." ”
I'm not alarmist, that's what Mars meant in the first place, and he felt that it was the right way to vent his anger.
"Originally, Donghai County wanted to kill us, so that when he regains power, he will speed up the killing of us, instead of letting ourselves die like now, and still survive, but directly use the defenders of Donghai County to eradicate dissidents." I speculate that it is all in line with the cleanup, and there is no exaggeration or deception.
"When the time comes, what will we do to resist the army of Donghai County, the emperor of the sky is far away, kill us and blame the whale shark pirates, die or die unjustly." Mars was taken aback by my nonsense, turned around, and looked at me movingly.
"If we act according to the requirements of Tokai County, as long as we do our best and make meritorious contributions, it is not impossible that we will be sheltered and pardoned at that time." My logical reasoning is really not covered, it is simply seamless and impeccable.
Huolu couldn't help but echo: "General Banner, what the Fire Spirit Captain said is very reasonable, please think twice, this training is really an opportunity, there is a lot to be done, I agree with the Fire Spirit Captain's opinion." ”
I added fuel and vinegar and said: "General Banner, this time it is Donghai County that has asked us, we can make a request, as long as they can't meet our requirements, we won't give him training, what a good thing, the opportunity must not be lost, the loss will not come again, the situation in Donghai County is changing rapidly, it is not enough to buy grain with the gold and silver of Laobo, don't have much hope, we can only rely on Donghai County, let them obediently allocate food and salary to us." ”
Huo Shou dragged and said: "This matter is too hasty, Huo Ling, you are a person's worth and name, don't worry, we have a family in the royal capital, if we act recklessly, it will bring a devastating blow to the people of the royal capital, the matter is not so simple." ”
Mo Yue also persuaded: "The general flag must not be hastily agreed, once we agree, there is no turning back." ”
Mars agreed with my opinion and said: "What the fire spirit said is already very clear, but they are using each other, when the time comes, take a step at a time, first go to Donghai County to meet the eldest prince Lao Zhang, and see what he says." ”
Standing on the northwest hill, you can see all the matters of the Huoyue camp, the roof of the tent is bulging, the patrol sergeant returns to the camp from the field, the sergeant carrying the water walks step by step, the cooking smoke rises, the sun sets, the sunset fills the western sky, and the camp under the sunset presents a peaceful and quiet anger, which makes people indulge in the secret of peace and security.
For the first time, I felt that the atmosphere of this camp had changed, it had become vibrant, energetic, and the surrounding environment made me feel comfortable and at ease, and I felt that all the efforts were worthwhile, meaningful, and not in vain.
Life seems to be meaningless, so we have to do our best to make this meaningless life meaningful.
I remembered the negative yet positive proverb I lived on Earth, and I don't know which fool said it, and I was speechless. Standing under the canopy tree that the Martian flag always likes to stand, my thoughts are very ethereal, as if I am out of my mind.
Lao Zao walked towards the sheep intestine trail on the other side of the northwest hill, he should have seen the orderly tombstones standing on this vast land, facing the wind, rain and sun, it is okay for someone to pay tribute, if no one cares, I am afraid that it will not be a year, and the weeds will cover those tombstones, and they will not be seen in the distance, and they can only be found when they enter here.
I caught up with Lao Zao, and he asked me, "Lying here are all your Fire Moon warriors who died in battle." ”
"Yes, the latest tomb is less than half a month, and they may lie here forever, and they can only look in the direction of the royal capital from afar." I said lonely and thoughtfully, I can't help but remember life on Earth, but I don't want to think about it.
"The ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness of war, and only those who have lost their loved ones can deeply understand, Captain Fire Spirit, I can understand your feelings, it is very incredible to watch a good person die suddenly, extremely uncomfortable." Lao Zao stopped, he seemed to be estimating the number of tombstones, and when he walked here, he already had a number in his heart.
"I don't know how many people will die in this rebellion of the White Turban Army." Lao Zao actually muttered, which happened to be heard in my ears by my excellent hearing.
In the past, the death toll of such a big rebellion has been at the level of 100,000 or million, and even to the astronomical number of tens of millions, the blood is flowing like a river, and the corpses are piled up, which is a true portrayal, I can't answer Lao Zao's words, no matter how I say it, I don't think it's appropriate, it's a bit pretentious.
