The imperial court ordered Zhaoyi Town to send 5,000 soldiers to defend Daibei. Lu Jun held a banquet in the barracks to entertain the soldiers who went out on the expedition.

In the barracks, pigs and sheep are slaughtered, the cauldron is propped up, and the boiling stewed and delicious soup pot is full of fragrance.

The soldiers sat in groups of three or five, talking and laughing loudly, as if no one was around. Lu Jun cleared his throat and wanted to make a speech on the expedition, but he couldn't stand the crowd's voice, and the soldiers were completely in the posture of the boss and the second.

To leave the hinterland of the Central Plains and guard the frontier, it is rare for them to relax. Lu Jun considered for the soldiers.

During the reign of the Liu father and son in Zhaoyi, they connived at the actions of the soldiers, and slowly the Zhaoyi soldiers developed a bad habit of arrogance.

Zhang Cheng, the Zhaoyi Supervisor, was also at the banquet, and when he saw this, he said to Lu Jun: "General, this official will leave first, there is something to deal with." ”

He couldn't stand the anti-guest-oriented attitude of the soldiers, so he took the first step and didn't play with them.

Lu Jun couldn't evacuate, he wanted to show kindness to the soldiers and sit on the seat. watched the soldiers shouting at five and six, and indulged in alcohol.

When Lu Jun arrived in Zhaoyi Town, he has been adopting a policy of Huairou, wanting to slowly recover and win people's hearts. Sometimes he also feels a headache, and Xiucai encounters the powerlessness of the soldiers.

It's tightly managed, they complain. The management is loose, and there are signs of going to the house to uncover the tiles. Lu Jun has been finding a balance between tightness.

More than a dozen people helped each other to Lu Jun's side, "General, you talk to the imperial court, don't let us go to defend the north and leave home too far." We are also fathers, sons, and husbands. General, you have to fight for us. We saluted the general, and the general asked the court for us. ”

A few of you are a little slurred in your words, and ask Lu Jun for instructions. Lu Jun sat still, raised the wine bowl, and drank not much, he spilled it on his chest.

"The general played tricks, and they all fell on him. You drink, drink. "A drunken soldier grabbed the wine bowl and asked Lu Jun to drink a bowl.

The other two were sober, and when they saw Lu Jun's face sank, they knew that they could just stop pretending to be drunk by borrowing wine. "General, speak for us. Gone, gone. They pulled their companions away.

Lu Jun was kind enough to ask his subordinates to relax before leaving, but the scene was a little out of control. Lu Jun ordered the guards to convey the order, asking each detachment to reorganize its men and horses, and then set off.

Guard: "The general has an order, you can set off." ”

The guards went from detachment to detachment to convey instructions. Helplessly, each team went its own way, and the guards came back to report to Lu Jun.

"General, your subordinates have conveyed your orders."

Lu Jun was one head and two big, and the various detachments did not react, and they were still shouting and drinking to their heart's content.

Lu Jun's original intention was good, but he didn't expect this result. I can't help but feel a little angry. He instructed the guards: "Go, bring out the wine and food, and you go and inform the families and relatives who are seeing you off, and wait outside the city gates." It is only said that the general wants to say goodbye to the soldiers in the city tower, and their families and relatives are also waiting for the soldiers outside the city gate. ”

The guards left and hurried to deal with the matter. Come back soon. Explain the situation to the soldiers who are going to go on the expedition. China Library

"The general ordered a banquet to be held in the city tower, and your relatives are waiting in the city tower at this moment."

"Transfer the field, okay, transfer the field. Our relatives are waiting in the castle tower, let's go. "The soldiers called friends and friends, and there was no neat formation, so they were arranged in formation.

Lu Jun was at the front of the team, thinking that he would quickly send the soldiers on the road, and he would say anything when he sobered up. Don't do bad things with good intentions in the future, Lu Jun regretted his kind thoughts a little.

Zhang Cheng, the supervisor of the army, led 500 soldiers from the government to press the formation behind the team. The pro-soldier team lined up neatly and waved flags, so as to save some face for the soldiers in Zhaoyi Town.

Zhang Cheng looked at the team in front of him and shook his head, where are the troops of the imperial court, but they look like stragglers and reckless bandits.

The relatives of the soldiers were led out of the city gates, and they were looking forward to it. The large army finally appeared, and Lu Jun took the lead, dismounted outside the city gate, and bowed to the fathers and villagers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thanks to your great love, you put your family and country first, and send your children to distant places to guard the frontier, Lu Jun thanked his fathers and fellow villagers for their righteousness." Lu Jun bowed deeply to his father and fellow villagers.

A white-haired old man said with tears in his eyes: "General, our fathers and villagers in Zhaoyi Town have never been stingy with their children. As long as the country is in need, we will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire. It's just that the general listened to the old man's words, and the Liu father and son made a rebellion in Zhaoyi, and our young and strong children in Zhaoyi suffered greatly, and countless young and middle-aged people were killed and injured in the battle. The war wounds suffered by Zhaoyi Town have not yet healed, and now the imperial court is going to send Zhaoyi's children to other places. Leave behind elderly parents, orphans and widows, can the general open the net, do not send them away. The old man asked the general on behalf of the villagers. ”

The old man's words were moving, and the relatives who saw him off thought so, and the cries and prayers were loud.

Each family looked for people from each family, and they grabbed the clothes and horses of the soldiers who went out to fight, and they couldn't bear to leave according to their words. The soldiers who were about to go on the expedition and the relatives who saw them off crowded at the city gate.

The personal soldiers led by the prison army Zhang Cheng were blocked at the gate of the city and could not get out. Zhang Cheng simply led his own soldiers to retreat to the city. Lu Jun and several guards were wrapped up in them by the soldiers and villagers.

"Why should we abandon our wives and children, and not be filial to our elderly parents?" Someone surrounded Lu Jun and questioned him sternly.

Lu Jun was pushed by the flow of people, and suddenly went to the east and then to the west. "Soldiers, soldiers, there will be a farewell for thousands of miles, set off, set off." Lu Jun shouted hoarsely.

The guards surrounded Lu Jun in the middle, vigilantly observing the movement of the crowd. The whole outside the city gate was in chaos, the crowd of people who saw them off refused to disperse for a long time, and the soldiers were reluctant to set off.

"Expelling Lu Jun, we won't leave, let's not travel far to the land of Daibei." Someone in the crowd raised their arms and shouted.

The overseers heard it inside the gates, "Close the gates, close the gates." Zhang Cheng loudly ordered his own soldiers, and the personal soldiers stepped forward to close the city gate,

The heavy gates slowly closed, and the soldiers tried to pass the crowd to stop them from closing. Helplessly, the crowd gathered at the city gate, and they couldn't squeeze forward at all.

Lu Jun was sweating profusely at this time, the weather in early spring was still very cold, and sweat flowed down his cheeks. He was not facing a group of soldiers, but a group of drunkards. Xiucai couldn't explain the reason when he met the soldiers, let alone a group of drunken officers and soldiers.

The old man tried to persuade everyone not to be impulsive, "Soldiers, soldiers, listen to a word from the old man, listen to a word from the old man." The old man shouted at the top of his voice, but unfortunately no one responded to his words.

Lu Jun and several guards were surrounded in the middle. "We were born and grew up in Si, we are the masters of Zhaoyi Town, why are we leaving, why are we closing the city gate and refusing our relatives to go back." Someone shouted in indignation.

Tens of thousands of people gathered outside the city gates, and some women and children were pushed and pushed to the ground.
