Chapter 207: The Battle Song is Loud
"Bai Cai, what are you howling about? Dadang ...... The general asked you to patrol here, not to let you chat, you can steal chickens yourself, and you actually brought bad Xinding, don't you want rations? You don't want it yourself, and neither do your wives and children at home? ”
There was a hot pain in his back, and he heard the familiar scolding in his ears, but the veteran Bai Cai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, well, he was still alive, not by the Taishan army. (138.com.)
Immediately, his heart rose again, to a certain extent, this bitter and scheming guy behind him was more terrifying than Taishan Wang Pengju.
Bai Cai gave up the intention of covering the wound on his back, but turned around with the pain, and a flattering smile was already on his face: "General Yang, it's freezing this day, why did you come out in person?" Isn't I, I'm teaching wood how to patrol the sentry? ”
Nodding his head, he gestured to his companion with his hand behind his back.
The new soldier's surname Zhang, who is called wood, although his name is wood, his reaction is not wooden at all, and when he saw the gesture of the veteran, he hurriedly stepped forward and echoed: "Yes, yes, that's what Brother Bai said." ”
The little leader surnamed Yang whipped his left hand, and while swaying, the two of them raised their necks and slanted their bellies, and let out a cold snort from their nostrils: "Hmph! Who knows if you colluded to deceive someone? The attack on Mount Tai is related to the future of our Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and will determine the well-being of all the people in the world. ”
As soon as he heard this, the cold sweat behind Zhang Mu came down, and when the north wind blew, the cold penetrated into the cracks of his bones, and he was cold all over his body.
"Don't dare, don't dare, General Yang, Master Chao, what you said is too serious, how can I have the guts?" Bai Cai was not in danger, he nodded his head, and the name in his mouth kept changing, and he stepped forward, turned his cuffs, and quietly handed over something.
Yang Chao took it with ease, weighed it with his hand, and immediately distinguished the type and quantity of the gift, and he frowned a little dissatisfied.
Bai Cai has been paying attention to his expression, and when he saw this, he hurriedly said: "When the city is attacked, I must move forward bravely, and after breaking the city, I will also put the tricks on the light, super master, you know that I Lao Bai, my hands and feet have always been very fast." ”
Yang Chao thought for a while, then nodded, and inserted the whip back into his waist: "Well, that's right, forget it, I'll let you go for this time, don't you take it as an example, you know?" ”
"Thank you, General Yang, thank you." Bai Cai breathed a sigh of relief, didn't care about cursing the other party in his heart, and pulled Zhang Mu together in a panic to thank him.
The management inside the Yellow Turban is chaotic, but the rules and hierarchy are clear.
The treatment of the little minions is certainly not as good as that of the small bosses, and the small leaders are not as good as the big bosses, and they are very specific in the treatment in peacetime and the distribution of the spoils of war after the war.
The proceeds of looting, because the slogan of the Yellow Turban is equal wealth and poverty, therefore, grain, grass and livestock must be returned to the public. Of course, in general, the leaders will give a part of it to reward the brothers who are fighting hard, and if it is not good, who will move forward?
As for things like money and treasures, in principle, they should also be returned to the public, but these things are small in size and high in value, so they are casually hidden on the body. It was impossible for the leaders to snatch a place and search all over the minions, so they had to turn a blind eye.
Anyway, it doesn't matter much if the Yellow Turban asks for money, except for some big cities that are strictly guarded, only the dock forts of the powerful can do business. And those heroes are very cunning, even if they deal with the Yellow Turban, they will not sell food and iron to each other, they are not stupid, sell the Yellow Turban weapons and food, and they don't die fast enough?
The leaders ignore it, but the big and small leaders will not watch it, especially those small leaders, who are very familiar with the situation at the grassroots level, and whoever wants to hide something and hide it from their eyes can only ask for trouble.
Of course, all the public will discourage the enthusiasm of the minions, and the leaders are not stupid, they will not dry up and fish, they take a commission.
The minions of the looting are drawn by the small boss in proportion, and then the big boss is drawn from the small boss, and the boss draws the big boss...... Layer by layer, and so on.
In a sense, this model is similar to that of the government, but it is just a change of slogan and identity. With the gradual opening of the situation of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, the identity of the Yellow Turban is also rapidly changing to the regular army.
The original big bosses have all become generals, and the big and small leaders are captains and military marquis, of course, it is best to call them generals in person, who doesn't like to hear good words?
The recruit Zhang Mu is not very good yet, but Bai Cai is already familiar with this set, and he knows that the purpose of Captain Yang personally coming out to find fault is nothing more than to make some extra money. Relying on his rich experience, he gains more than others every time he loots, so it's strange that he is not targeted by this person.
Now, the last few five-baht coins have also been handed over to the other party, and future benefits have been promised, so that the other party has no reason and no need to continue to find fault.
"Hmm." Yang Chao's attitude really improved greatly, he waved his hand to the dark whistles that came out of the wall when he heard the exclamations, signaling that the warning signal was wrong, and then turned his head and asked: "Lao Bai, I heard you say just now, what did you find?" ”
"There seems to be movement at the head of the city." Bai Cai replied truthfully.
"The head of the city? What can be the mystery? Yang Chao glanced up, only to see the fire swaying at the head of the city, and a faint figure shaking, but he saw something somewhere.
"It's useless to do any tricks, in front of the little heavenly master's immortal law, all the sneaky tricks are nothing to hide, in front of the 200,000 army, no matter how powerful a person is, he will only end up with broken bones."
He couldn't guess the enemy's intentions, so he routinely shouted a few slogans, anyway, it was best to use this to boost morale, and by the way, it could also strengthen his courage.
"Yes, we've been resting for two days, and when the army is overwhelmed, we'll start besieging the city and sweeping through Taishan County!"
"Kill into Fenggao City, you can have whatever you want!"
"It's a fat year to enter Fenggao!"
The minions really came to their senses, and they shouted enthusiastically, shaking their bodies that were almost frozen, looking forward to a better future.
Only Bai Cai suddenly frowned, and listened to something in the direction of Fenggaocheng, and when everyone saw this, they stopped cheering, and the wall fell silent again.
In many cases, the experience of veterans can save people's lives more than force, which is one of the reasons why the small leader Yang Chao is not too persecutive.
"Listen, it seems...... Drumbeat? ”
"Knock...... Knock ......, two times, and there were bursts of drums from the head of Fenggao City.
The voice is not high-pitched, but it is better than neatly staggered, low, and slow, like an ice fountain flowing under the winter snow, and like the light of the stars and the moon slowly shining out when the clouds open and the moon is bright.
As the noise on the wall decreased, the lone body went from blurry to clear, penetrating the thick darkness and reaching everyone's ears like a cloud.
"Quick, blow the horn, the Taishan army has sent troops to attack!" Yang Chao was shocked, the drum sound is military music, and it cannot be moved lightly unless ordered by the main general, and the Taishan army beats the drum in the middle of the night, which is definitely not a good thing.
Bai Cai hurriedly reminded: "General Yang, don't worry, it may not be a sneak attack, maybe they will do it again, and they want to harass us and prevent everyone from sleeping well." ”
"That's right...... But this time they didn't blow the trumpet, and the drums didn't sound, so far away, who could they quarrel with? ”
"Why do they beat the drum if they sneak attack?"
In the face of everyone's questions, Bai Cai could only shake his head, and when everyone was at a loss, he saw that Zhang Mu had a thoughtful expression, so he asked, "Mu, what did you hear?" ”
"It seems...... Music was playing at the head of the city. Zhang Mu's tone was very uncertain.
"Playing music, at a time like this? Who is it for? Is Wang Pengju stupid? Yang Chao smiled dumbly.
Zhang Mu's face turned red, and he tried to defend himself: "However, the sound of the drum is clearly rhythmic, and it is similar to what I heard outside the Assassin's Mansion......"
"Jiao He's Thorn Mansion?" Bai Cai's brain turned quickly, he knew that his companion was from Linzi, and after the destruction of Linzi City, he was coerced into the army, he was an honest man, and his words should be reliable.
"That's right, it's Jiao...... That's him. Zhang Mu's tone was very affirmative.
"Is it possible...... Are you doing something? Bai Cai is very particular about what he said.
The so-called: the etiquette is not inferior to the common people, the punishment is not to the doctor, since ancient times, such a thing as etiquette and music is a very solemn ceremony. The drums that ordinary people like Zhang Mu heard outside the Assassin's Mansion were not music for scholars to drink and feast, but some kind of ritual.
As we all know, Jiao He is an incompetent person who has no ability and relies on worshipping God to solve everything.
During this time, the propaganda about spells within the Yellow Turban Army was indeed very popular, so Bai Cai immediately thought of it.
"It's possible, since Wang Pengju has pretended to be a little heavenly master, he must also know some spells." As soon as this remark came out, someone immediately chimed in.
As soon as it began, all kinds of associations arose one after another, and someone changed his color and said: "Oh no, he must be using a spell to bombard the village, I heard that he is proficient in thunder!" ”
"Quickly, get down the wall, lest you ......"
"What a panic!"
Yang Chao shouted loudly and suppressed many noisy voices: "With the little Heavenly Master here, even if the other party has any demon spells, it is not worth mentioning, not to mention, there is no magic altar at the head of the city, where is it so easy for him to cast spells?" So and so, I'm going to report to Qu Shuai, and you all keep me here honestly. ”
The faces of the "......" soldiers were not very good, and under the encouragement of faith, they were not afraid of bloodshed, but they were very worried about ghosts, gods, spells and the like.
Xiao Tianshi and Wang Peng raised the fighting method, if these ordinary people were involved, it would be strange if there were no bones left! Who can not be afraid?
Afraid of something, Yang Chao just turned around, and before he had time to get off the wall, he only heard the bells and drums in Fenggao's direction, and the music was loud.
The next moment, the high-pitched singing voice pierced the sky and moved the earth!
The lyrics are simple and atmospheric, and the singing voice is high-pitched and loud, piercing the silence of the night like wind and thunder, echoing between the mountains and rivers of the land of Qilu.
"The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes......"
The song of leaving the death alarmed the four fields, the mountains also listened, and the water should also be harmonious. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a member to recommend this work, your support is my biggest motivation. )
