Chapter Eighty-Seven: Smelling
On the evening of the seventh day, the two brothers of the New Army were packing up the belongings left over from the drill on the city wall.
"Leizi, let me tell you, I seem to smell the fox smell of the Rouran thief general Chi Gong."
", to that extent, I'm afraid that the nose of the Rouran soldier will be attached to your black face."
"Really, I'm gifted with a nose, absolutely yes."
"Okay, okay, I said Lao Kan'er, you heard the red-haired girls who just went to Funiu Ridge, which one is in the hair. Spring? ”
"Seriously, you're still ...... I think the skinniest one should be about the same, hehe! ”
"Let's go, let's eat, we're the slowest, this little day, we used to live on the livestock!"
……
When I returned to the station, I was making a lot of noise, although there were only two dry and one thin, but for this group of bitter haha who came out of the slave camp, it was definitely a delicacies of the mountains and seas.
There is a piece of dried mutton, three taels of feet, a large piece of naan, there must be a catty, a large bowl of gruel, and the dry ones are filled after eating, and the belly can be rounded.
This kind of life, once brothers who came out of the slave camp, didn't have much chance to see it, but now they are dreaming, two meals a day, all in this configuration.
Being a soldier, in their opinion, except for the training and daily conduct is a bit strict, is simply the most beautiful errand in the world, and they don't change it for a piece of gold.
However, seeing that these new soldiers had to spend one or two gold bills every day, Yang Zhong was dying of pain.
"Brother Zilong, I know that you attach great importance to these brothers, and even more to the defense of Tucheng this time, but there is really no need to treat the big guy like this, even if the naan cake is forgotten, it is only half a catty more, but this mutton jerky ......"
The corners of Yang Zhong's mouth twitched and he wanted to give Zilongdi advice I don't know how many times, but the result was still the same!
"Brother Yang, they are our foundation and our brothers, their importance is definitely not worse than any nobleman, I not only want them to be guaranteed food, but also let them read and write as soon as the siege of Tucheng is lifted!"
Zilong's idea is very simple, that is, to use modern military management experience to build an invincible iron army in this era!
However, it has only just been built. The new army of the army on the seventh day has to face the test and baptism of the regular army, how many people can survive?
Late at night, Lei Zi and Lao Kan'er, who were full of wine and food, did not rest early according to the regulations, and Lao Kan'er still suspiciously felt that he smelled the fox smell of Rou Ran Wei Chi Gang, and pulled Lei Zi to secretly climb up on the Chase bunk.
"Leizi, you are the leader of our team, it should be okay to take me out for inspection, right?"
Lei Zi rubbed his sleepy eyes, and Hache complained: "Old Kan'er, you can't stop being suspicious, how many years have we not slept like this?" I'm not on duty today, what am I going to do on patrol? ”
As he spoke, he was about to lie down, who thought that Lao Kan'er was still energetic, and pulled the thunderbolt that lay down again, and shook it all the way.
"Leizi, I'm still panicking all the time, just take me around!"
Lei Zi is really enough, sleeping in peace like this, when he was in the slave camp, it was a luxury, and now he has eaten and drunk enough, and his body has been tense all day, and he can finally relax, but he meets such an old madman.
However, thinking about the fact that in the slave camp, Lao Kan'er also had a life-saving grace for him, and in order to help himself hide the fact of escape, he suffered so many beatings, if this request could not be satisfied, Lei Zi felt uncomfortable.
"Okay, okay, just this time, which camp do you want to go to?"
said it was once, but Lao Kan'er knew that even if there was a next time, Lei Zi would agree.
I want to be happy, but I can't always be happy, and Lao Kan'er's heart is still carrying it!
"If you don't go to the tent, go to the city wall, okay?"
The city wall is close at hand, and now there are only a few brothers on duty, and in the middle of the night, it is impossible to meet the two generals Zilong and Yang Zhong, so they should not be scolded, just go!
However, it was such a coincidence, and not long after they stepped on the city wall, they heard the loud report of their brothers behind them.
"Report General Zilong and Brother Yang, there is no abnormal situation!"
Lei Zi's heart was shocked, why was he so in such a hurry?
"Let's call each other brothers, stop calling me general!"
Zilong's voice sounded very kind, which made Lei Zi feel a little at ease, presumably he would not be punished if he told the truth!
"Don't dare, dare not dare, dare to ask General Zilong, why are you here late at night? The wind is strong on the grassland, be careful of the wind chill! ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm a little uneasy in my heart, so I want to come out and go around, you go back to the sentry post and continue to be on duty, let's go up to the city wall to see!"
As the leader of the team, Lei Zi had two contacts with Zilong, and he also heard that Zilong was peaceful, so he felt a little at ease at this time, and he actually took Lao Kan'er to meet him.
Zilong saw someone coming, and through the dim moonlight and the glowing firelight, he carefully identified it, only to find that it was Lei Zi.
"Sun Lei has seen the general, Brother Yang!"
"If I'm not mistaken, it doesn't seem that you are on duty today, why don't you rest at this time?"
Sun Lei sneered, and told Zilong about today's Lao Kan'er roughly, and he laughed and rolled back with laughter.
"General Zilong, do you think he's a bit of a soldier?"
However, Zilong didn't seem to smile at all, and even looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was called Lao Kan'er quite carefully.
An ordinary middle-aged man looks very inconspicuous, but Zilong suddenly has some intimacy, just because what Lao Kan smelled happened to be another Zilong who couldn't sleep late at night.
That's right, Zilong also smelled a trace of uneasiness, according to the date of Lu Zhen's beggar Helu's explanation, estimating the footsteps of the Rouran Iron Cavalry, Wei Chigang should be almost there.
Zilong also felt a sense of uneasiness suddenly hit him today, making it difficult for him to sleep.
"Training during the day is hard, even if you are uneasy, you shouldn't come to the city wall to inspect at this time, but since you're here, let's take a look!"
Sun Lei listened, his heart was really like this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Zilong Yang Zhong to the city wall, looking at the dark and dead grassland outside the city, and was silent for a long time.
"Did Lao Kan'er ever be a soldier?"
Zilong suddenly broke the silence, this sentence was beyond Sun Lei's expectations, and it turned out to be a single question to Lao Kan'er.
Although Lao Kan'er was quite relaxed when he got along with Sun Lei, for some reason, he was a little nervous when he saw this very approachable general.
"General Hui, I am a herdsman and have never been a soldier."
Zilong was slightly stunned, looking at the darkness in front of him, as if something was slowly squirming in the night, wriggling a devilish face, vague and difficult to identify.
"Do you think this time Rouran Wei Chi Gang, can he break the earth city?"
Even Yang Zhong was a little surprised at this time, how could Zilong discuss this with a small soldier? Not to mention that the little soldiers can't see these at all, just saying that as a city defender, Zilong asks this, it may affect the morale of the army!
Fang was waiting to talk, but he heard Lao Kan'er also mutter: "I don't know, the brothers have been in the army for a short time, and they have been hungry for a long time, although the general is kind and not thin to the brothers, everyone is willing to serve the general, but ......"
Zilong waved his hand and stopped Lao Kan'er's words, he also knew that the biggest problem of this group of people was that they had no experience, the death rate of new recruits was extremely high, and they even lacked the courage to wave their swords against the enemy.
Suddenly turned around, staring at Lao Kan'er's somewhat cloudy eyes, the cold wind rose suddenly, but Zilong's voice did not appear blurred in the wind.
"It's not for me, Tucheng will be brothers in the future, and the entire Northland, the whole world, will be brothers in the future!"
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to go down the city wall and go back to sleep.
Lao Kan'er listened to Zilong's words, his heart was shocked, and a feeling that he had never felt before arose spontaneously in his heart, I don't know whether it was doubt, or joy, or what.
Lao Kan'er weirdly felt that Zilong was trustworthy, and what Zilong said would definitely come true, and it would be worth dying for the sake of the world that belonged to his brothers in the future.
Zilong took two steps, and suddenly heard the soldiers on duty on the city wall shouting twice, and the earth-shattering signal drum sounded with it.
"There is a large firelight outside the city, and the Rouran soldiers are coming!"
Zilong listened to the shout and looked at the city wall, where Lao Kan'er Leizi was standing in front of the torch in a daze.
"Lie down, lie down!"
This shout seemed to have exhausted all his strength, but as soon as the words fell, countless meteors crossed the city wall, and Zilong's heart was for a while, rockets!
One by one, the guards spread the news of the attack of the Rouran soldiers to the entire garrison, and it didn't take long for the brothers of the new army to gather, carrying bows and arrows and other weapons and running towards the city wall.
Ten breaths, from the news to the camp tents, to the completion of the assembly, it only took ten breaths, which was secretly recorded in the hearts of the team owners, and recording these data has become a habit of their daily training.
When the private soldiers of the various tribes rubbed their sleepy eyes and came to the outside of the camp tent, they were shocked to see the rain of arrows still burning all over the ground, and rushed back to the camp tent with a stream of urine and urine.
"Damn, this madman, what a young man, set up his tent by the city wall, isn't this giving his head away?"
Complaints like these caused Hou Mo Chen Yue to be dissatisfied.
Yes, Hou Mo Chen Yue is very honored to once again become the leader of a plate of loose sand, or Zilong hand-picked.
Does dissatisfaction work? No!
Therefore, what Hou Mo Chen Yue could do was to take a group of complaining scumbags to gather with the new troops who came out of the slave camp, which was the most embarrassing thing for him.
He had seen the situation of the new army more than once or twice, and he had also seen these scumbags, but why didn't they know shame?
As a result, two distinct groups appeared under the city walls, one in high spirits and the other ......
Zilong also got up from his lying down state at this time, looked up at the position where Sun Lei and Lao Kan'er stood on the city wall, and saw no one in sight, and felt a little relieved.
The sudden low roar made Zilong's heart feel a little calmer, and suddenly tightened!
