Chapter 7: The Iron Horse Glacier (2)
The soldiers who were going to go out were very excited, some were excited because they wanted to fight for a future in the troubled times, and some were afraid of the tragedy of fighting in the battle array. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info blood and bones bring not only pain and struggle to soldiers, but also glory and status, and everyone who picks up a knife and gun has the consciousness of exchanging life for everything.
The night of Baojing was lively because of the madness of the soldiers, and the Goolan wine shop was overcrowded. The soldiers who went to the battlefield and didn't know if they could come back alive hugged their wine glasses and vented their emotions loudly, just looking at their expressions, they were a little drunk and lying on the battlefield, and the arrogance of the horse leather shroud.
Zhao Erlang was finally dragged by his comrades to visit the kiln, and the sound of the dust made Zhao Er, who had never even touched a woman's hand, at a loss, and his face was almost dripping blood.
The mother in the store called the girls under her command to let these Qiu Ba choose, Zhou Laizi seems to have escaped from the embarrassment of being knocked down by Wang Jin's move, and he is going to fight for his life, who cares about those things?
Zhou Laizi grabbed a familiar woman, and touched his hand to his chest, the woman was also bold, sat directly on Zhou Laizi's lap, pushed his Lushan claw away, and said to him with a charming expression: "Brother Zhou's hand is always so dishonest, but the guy in the crotch of this trouser is useless, every time people are not happy, you will vent like a note, but the slave family is bitter and opens his mouth, and the slave family wants to complain to your lady." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of laughter around, and a fellow colleague in the team looked at Zhou Laizi with a red face with playful eyes, and the girls next to him also covered their mouths and smiled, laughing so much that tears came out.
"No, Zhou Laizi, don't you often say that you and your good bed are majestic, nine times a night? It turned out to be bragging, I didn't think you were still a silver-like pewter gun head, useless, hahaha, laughed at me! ”
The shameful laughter around made Zhou Laizi angry, and the woman who also lost was very familiar with Zhou Laizi, otherwise he would have to turn his face directly, this man can do anything, this thing under his crotch must not be done.
"Little slut, I'll let you try your Uncle Zhou's power tonight, and it's not over if I don't roll your eyes."
Mother came out to play a round: "Yo, I said Zhou Dalang, this little lady of the slave family is delicate, you light, if it is broken, you have to redeem her body and marry into your family to enjoy the blessings." ”
………………
The laughter of the surrounding prostitutes and prostitutes made Zhao Erlang very uneasy, and the women standing in a row in front of him kept teasing these rough men with their eyes, and several of them couldn't wait to hug the beauties and spend the Spring Festival together.
The red candles in the green building emitted an ambiguous light under the reflection of the pink light veil, and a cold breeze blew in from time to time outside the window, but Zhao Erlang actually had a layer of fine sweat on his head in this situation, and his body was hot.
He lowered his head and blushed, and played with a teacup lid in his hand, stunned for nothing, and did not even have the courage to look up at the beautiful girls in front of him.
The old bustard has read countless people, this kind of first-time chick he can see through at a glance, and he looks quite handsome, but he has a good impression, and directly pushed a girl under her who had just been combed in front of Zhao Er.
"This son, Xiaoxia is our most gentle little lady, not long after breaking the melon, you can be regarded as picking up a treasure, let Xiaoxia accompany you tonight, okay?"
Zhao Shuang was trembling, raised his head and glanced at the girl, only to see that the girl was estimated to be older than Zhao Er, with beautiful eyebrows and green daisies, much more delicate than most women in the room, not contaminated with too much wind and dust, Xiaoxia's eyes were lowered, a few long hairs in her ears floated on her face, and her eyes were still a little shy.
Zhao Er raised his hand that was a little trembling, and the arrogance in the school field was gone, and he was a little trembling when he spoke: "This girl, you... Would you like to? ”
If a mouth is ridiculous, then the mother can't stand laughing.
"Serving the son is a blessing for the slave family, why did the son say this?"
This woman was considerate of Zhao Er's fluted head, took a step forward and took Zhao Er's hand, and whispered, "The son came with the slave family." ”
Zhao Erlang's rough big hand holding the knife was held by the soft jade little hand, and his heart was about to jump out with excitement, and he almost didn't stand firm when he got up, and followed the girl back to the room as if he was drunk.
……………
Wang Jin and Li Zhuzi were outsiders, they had no place to live in Baojing, and they had no money on them, so they had no share when they were paid money, so they had to wander the streets of Lingzhou after dinner in the camp.
During the period before the expedition, the fang market seemed to have regained its prosperity in the Tang Dynasty, the lanterns on the streets dispelled the darkness, and the merchants on both sides of the road also came out to set up stalls to sell goods, and the misery of the displaced people outside the city was simply two worlds.
Zhumen smells of wine and meat, there are frozen bones on the road, and a cold city wall separates heaven and hell. Wang Jin quietly watched the beggars on the side of the road throwing themselves on the ground and shouting loudly for a little belly-wrapped food, the children with straw sticks on their heads for sale, and the parents looked at the passers-by with desperate expressions in the back, begging to buy their children in exchange for a little money to survive.
Behind these tragedies, the brightly lit Qinglou, the laughter of countless prostitutes and dusty women permeated the entire street, and the prostitutes wantonly waved their enthusiasm and spent a lot of money.
The street girl on the side of the street saw Wang Jin and Li Zhuzi looking at Qinglou in a daze, thinking that they were inexperienced chicks again, and they all showed off their posture, wanting to pull these two young and handsome offspring in, Li Zhuzi had never experienced this situation, and suddenly turned red with shame, and turned away from looking.
Wang Jin is from the modern era, I don't know how much this kind of prostitute soliciting has experienced, and he doesn't shy away from it, staring at those women, wanting to see how they are different from modern times. The women saw that Wang Jin was looking at this side, with a strange look on his face, and someone said, "Childe, what kind of eyes are these?" Don't you look at the figure of the slave family and be stunned, come in and let you see it. The people around were in a hurry, after all, this kind of excitement is very interesting.
Wang Jin didn't pay attention to them, he could see that although they were more than a thousand years apart, there was not much difference, they were still poor and pathetic women who sold their bodies in exchange for survival, and suddenly lost interest, pulled up Li Zhuzi and left.
The people around laughed at their tender faces, and some people talked about how chic they were back then. Wang Jin smiled in his heart, and went back to his residence without stopping, tomorrow is the day when the army gathers, and he needs to prepare early.
Early the next morning, many people in the barracks had already arrived, and the right battalion A team where Wang Jin and Li Zhuzi were located had also arrived more than a dozen people. Although Wang Jin is barely an officer, he has no prestige at all, and the soldiers in the team are all gathered in twos and threes to talk, and no one pays attention to him.
Within half an hour, the commander sent someone to take the roll call, and the soldiers knew the rules of the army, and no one was late. The officer on the inspection platform said something loudly, Wang Jin was too far away and didn't hear a word clearly, but said that in the end, the sacrificial ceremony on the stage began, and the ancient army must sacrifice to the gods and pray for the blessing of the gods to defeat the enemy before going to war. This solemn etiquette is also used to strengthen the soldier's belief in victory.
Confucian classics say that in the Western Zhou Dynasty, whenever the army was dispatched, a large-scale sacrificial ceremony was held, slaughtering cattle and sheep to sacrifice ancestors and sheji.
After a while, the officer asked all the soldiers to line up and slaughter the cattle and sheep. The bloody cattle and sheep circled around the queue, called "martyrdom".
The general on the inspection platform announced: Those who do not need to be killed will be beheaded. Wang Jin was very skeptical about whether this system could be implemented, the army was defeated like a mountain, and at that time he could still tell who was afraid of death?
The commander personally poured the blood of the animals on the weapons, which was called "provocation", and symbolically poured a little blood on the flags, war drums, gold medals, and weapons used in the war. Strangely, however, the blood-soaked chariots were to be put back in storage.
After the sacrifice, the cattle and sheep were cooked, that is, "gizzard meat", and distributed to the soldiers to enjoy. Wang Jin ate a little bit, and the taste was not very good, but this was just a ritual, and he cared about the process.
The army of the feudal town was not very well equipped, most of them were only foot soldiers, and the number of cavalry was not large. The cost of cavalry is too great, even in the northwest of the horse-producing land, it can't afford the huge cavalry expenses. After all, the military organization of the Central Plains is completely different from that of the grassland peoples, and it cannot do the desperate madness of the whole people.
The ceremony was over, and the soldiers were disbanded on the spot, and they set out at the north gate early tomorrow morning. The party has been in Baojing for many days, and the urgent call for help in front of him will come every day, and it seems that it will be broken in the next moment, Han Xun is very annoyed by this endless bad news, he has done the greatest possible mobilization of troops and horses, but the grain, grass, money and grain still make him feel a deep sense of powerlessness, the Bianliang housekeeper will not give him a grain and a penny, everything needs to be done by himself, who makes Lingzhou his territory!
Suddenly a song rang out in the army:
How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son!
How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son!
How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son!
…………
The tragic and desolate singing reminded Wang Jin of his comrades-in-arms, his lovely comrades-in-arms, the comrades-in-arms who never left in the rain of bullets, never to be seen again, and a trace of tears was left from the corner of Wang Jin's eyes with the singing.
Tomorrow is the day of departure, if you don't want to die in the troubled times, you have to make great efforts, for your own future, and in order to survive no longer turn into loess in these five generations of troubled times, you must fight for your life.
"Ahh Wang Jin slammed the knife into the ground!
