Chapter 297: Embark on the journey again

I don't know what God thinks, I have been looking forward to the rain for half a year, and it fell in the second half of the night. When the fluttering spring rain falls on the face, the faces of the people all over the city are surprised. The county seat of Xichuan is not large, that is, 30,000 or 40,000 people, more than 2,000 households. Maybe it's because of the spring rain, maybe it's because of the unexpected unity of the residents of the city when they meet a group of officers and soldiers that the people can't even think about. With concerted efforts, the fire was extinguished. After extinguishing the fire, the officers and soldiers who had been tired all night quietly went out of the city, and a group of officers and soldiers entered the city to maintain order.

At dawn, cartloads of corpses were pulled out of the city, all of which were the rebels from last night. At this time, the onlookers remembered the cruelty of these officers and soldiers when they killed people. Looking at them again, they all have a sense of awe.

More than half of the 3,000 Henan rebels and 500 garrisons of Benxian were killed in one fell swoop last night, and the rest laid down their arms and surrendered, and were locked up in the school grounds. It was still drizzling in the sky, and these people were shivering in the wind and rain. Ten people tied up in a string and huddled together to keep each other warm, and no one knows what the fate will be next.

The people of the city are immersed in grief, and only time can dilute this qiē. The outrageous military discipline of the Dengzhou camp once again broke the cognition of the people of Xichuan. The people walking around the street, when they saw these officers and soldiers wearing dark green military uniforms standing there like pillars, couldn't help but bow their heads and smile. Without exception, as long as you nod and smile at these officers and soldiers, you can get a return salute, snap upright, raise your hands and cross your chest, and have a warm smile.

The military discipline of the Dengzhou battalion is really life-threatening. Fighting the fire last night. Dozens of officers and soldiers were wounded, but fortunately no one died. Without even taking a sip of water, the soldiers left. At dawn in the morning, it was Dengzhou Camp again, and you could see them everywhere, they were working. Cleaning up garbage and helping to repair houses. The people of Xichuan really can't believe that there are still such officers and soldiers in the world. The three words "Dengzhou Camp" are enough for the people of Xichuan to say for a lifetime.

Wang Ben encountered a lot of trouble, a little lady. Not very old. That is, thirteen or fourteen years old, holding a burden, standing at the gate of the camp and refusing to move. It is useless for anyone to persuade him, he just wants to see Wang Ben.

A six-foot-tall man in his thirties. Stand in front of this little lady. There was nothing to be done. When facing the Houjin army. I didn't see him nervous, he would be anxious.

"I don't care, you hugged me. Touch me, I'm your person. You don't want me, I'm standing here. ”

How many times has this been repeated? Wang Ben was about to collapse, this woman was like a repeater, uh, he didn't know there was such a thing.

"I told you, if you send troops and let your horses out, you can't marry a daughter-in-law, and when you go back, the lord knows about it, and he wants to kill his head."

Wang Ben decided to struggle again, this time the little lady didn't repeat it, and looked up at him: "I'm hungry!" ”

Wang Ben hugged his head and rushed into the cooking class, hit a box of freshly cooked rice, snatched the big spoon in the chef's hand, and dug up a spoonful of braised pork. Covering the lunch box, as if remembering something, he rushed into the logistics convoy and found the logistics officer: "Can you buy some canned food?" ”

The logistics officer is very young, that is, in his early twenties, and usually has a good relationship with Wang Ben, so he will smile and take out a bag from the corner and say with a smile: "I have prepared the dowry for you early, don't be too little." ”

Wang Ben, who had been teased for a morning, had no strength to explain, so he took his backpack and left. There was a burst of laughter behind him, and there was not much fun in being a soldier, and this thing could be happy for days. Out of the logistics and into the temporary command post, Chang Shiren saw his posture, put down the pen in his hand with a smile and said: "I know you are coming, go, give you a day and a half off." Your situation is quite special, and it is not considered a violation of military discipline. But then again, if you dare to start and give up, don't blame the ruthlessness of military law. ”

Wang Ben's face was flushed, and he was about to leave with grief and indignation, but was stopped by Chang Shiren: "Wait a minute, a little heart." After saying that, he threw a handful of silver dollars into his back pocket and smashed it on the can with a clattering sound. This is just the beginning, the other officers are coming to join in the fun, you throw silver dollars at me. They are all brothers who have exchanged their lives on the battlefield, and it is not interesting to say kind words.

Wang Ben nodded numbly, and breathed a sigh of relief when he got out of the camp, knowing that this little lady who didn't even know her name couldn't get rid of it. Bring your own warhorse, hang it in your back bag, and think about throwing all the silver dollars on your body into your back bag. Men are big husbands, and they should do things simply. Out of the camp gate, Wang Ben didn't say a word, picked up the little lady and put it on horseback. followed and got on the horse, the little lady has no expression, and she will blush like a military flag.

"Eat first, I'll send you home, and by the way, I'll give your parents the dowry." Wang Ben was very simple, he didn't marry left and right, he used to be a bad life, and all the silver dollars he saved were thrown into the half-hidden door. If it weren't for the help of the brothers, this dowry would probably not be available.

Sitting on horseback, the little lady did not resist the temptation of food, shed tears while eating, and covered the lunch box after a few bites.

"What? Isn't it delicious? "Wang Ben, who believes in the reins, has been staring at others. Only then did I find out that the little lady was very handsome. It is completely in line with the contemporary aesthetic trend, but the feet are a little bigger. Wang Ben didn't care about this.

"No, it's delicious, I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life. I've got to keep some for my mom and dad and my little brother. The voice was not loud, just such a sentence, Wang Ben burst into tears. When he was a child, he also had a sister, and he wanted to keep the delicious food for him, and Wang Ben, who thought he was a deserter on the battlefield, never dared to go home. This sentence evokes too many memories.

When the little hand wiped his tears with his sleeve, Wang Ben retracted his mind. Holding the woman who collapsed with a single sentence, he clenched his hands and laughed in a low voice: "I'm fine, sit tight." ”

"By the way, what's your name?" "Chunni" and "good name", the spring breeze is proud, and the giggles spread far away.

The Dengzhou camp was finally leaving, and the people of Xichuan gathered outside the barracks, standing far away, and no one came forward to disturb them to pack up. A silent farewell, until the last shadow disappeared from sight, a young woman with her hair in a bun rushed up a dirt slope.

As if sensing it, a fast horse turned around, and Tata's charge approached. The young woman rushed down the dirt slope and stumbled forward, and the knight on horseback dismounted, holding the young woman in his arms and not knowing what to say. A few minutes later, the separation came, and the last back disappeared far away.

I don't know which one howled first, "Why did you leave, why did you leave?" Tens of thousands of people cried and shook the sky, beating their chests and stumbling countless people. The young woman who turned back was also full of tears, and walked back firmly, and the people on the road invariably gave way. The envious eyes of countless women surrounded this happy-looking woman.

"Hey, let's go!" Yuan Mo sighed, and finally glanced back at Xichuan County. The recital to Jingshi has been written, and Yuan Mo has decided to take the main responsibility. Compared with these ordinary soldiers in the Dengzhou battalion, Yuan Mo had a sense of shame of poor morality.

When the sedan curtain fell, Yuan Mo, who had been in the sea for a long time, still held a handful of tears. I have never experienced it in my life. That young man named Chen Xie, his army can win the battle, and it is definitely not by blowing it. The experience of these days has strengthened Yuan Mo's will to grasp the command of this army, as long as he is in Henan for a day, no one will want to touch it.

"Forward, our will is like steel, defending the ...... of the people of the Ming Dynasty."

The military song is loud and vigorous. Gao Slope watched the night of this team from a distance, and seemed to be quite frightened, and turned around and galloped wildly. Without the drag of the Henan officers and soldiers, the Dengzhou battalion marched faster, traveling 100 miles a day, and Shangjin was in sight.

In Shangjin, the large battalion is continuous, and the two officials in the Chinese military tent are suppressing the big plan in the Shang Assembly. The sound of hurried footsteps interrupted their conversation. Chen Qiyu, who was thin and small, and Lu Xiangsheng, who was tall, looked at each other in unison. At this time, it is often not a good thing to alarm them.

"Report, there is a large army on the official road, and the vanguard is under the banner of the Dengzhou battalion."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and said in unison: "It's so fast." "Chen Qiyu is the governor of the five provinces, and he will suppress a large number of thieves in Hannan, and it is expected that Zhongyuan Mo will arrive in mid-May, but he did not expect it to be nearly ten days in advance.

"The prestige of the Dengzhou camp has long been heard." Lu Xiangsheng, as a talented person in Gancheng at the end of the Ming Dynasty, naturally would not miss the news of the Dengzhou camp. Chen Qiyu is the same, as early as last winter, he knew that the military headquarters had issued ten urgent orders and urgently transferred the Dengzhou battalion to Henan.

"Let's go, let's see. It is said that the Dengzhou battalion is invincible and invincible, and today I want to see and learn. Chen Qiyu was also a little excited, greeted Lu Xiangsheng, took their respective guards, and went out of the camp gate together, and walked out of the pipeline in the direction of Yunyang for three miles.

There are many legends of the Dengzhou camp, especially after the First World War in Lushun, which is rumored to be a god. That's a slave, beheading 20,000 even if there is water, and taking 10% will cost 2,000.

The singing stopped, but the neat footsteps did not stop, boasting and boasting, one after another like a hammer in the chest.

The two senior officers are both from military leaders, so they naturally understand what this voice means?

A mile away, the army came to a steady halt, and no one moved. More than ten people came out of the army, and the first one was Yuan Mo.

Despite the strange dress of this army, no one has a sense of disobedience, as if this army should be like this.

A reunion, at least on the surface. After the Dengzhou battalion was stationed outside the city, Yuan Mo didn't even fight for the right to enter the city for the Dengzhou battalion. He knew very well that there was no need for it. Entering the city, Yuan Mo said to Wu Zhi and Chang Shiren: "When we talk about military affairs, the two of you don't need to say much, Benxian knows what to do." ”

Chang Shiren didn't say anything, he bought grain and grass from Xiangyang, went ashore from Yunyang by Hanshui, and caught up with the army Wu Zhi, who said with a skeptical attitude: "Let's see." (To be continued......)
