In the barracks outside Yanbei City, the soldiers poured baskets of snow into the cauldron, and the melted snow water came out steaming, and a bowl of rice was poured into it, and the faint fragrance of rice overflowed with the heat.

"The seventh day of the first lunar month is to drink porridge." A soldier muttered to himself.

Standing next to him was a stout military man, who said in a loud voice: "Who said that the porridge is drunk on the fifth day of the first month, the first dumpling is the first two noodles, the first three hezyads go home, the fourth day of the first month is scrambled eggs, the fifth day of the first month is pinched on the villain's mouth, and the seventh day of the first month eats longevity noodles." The seventh day of the lunar month is the day of the people, and you have to eat noodles. ”

Xiaobing swallowed her saliva, she was not a picky eater, she didn't have anything special to eat, but now, she wanted to eat a bowl of hot noodles, poured with fungus and mushrooms, and it was better to have another bowl of chicken soup.

With a snort, someone laughed out loud.

The stout soldier glared angrily and scolded: "Is Lao Tzu wrong? On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, you have to eat Shou noodles! ”

"You're right, but you don't look at what kind of place this is, it's good to have a mouthful of gruel to drink, and you still want to eat noodles."

The stout soldier was stunned, he only came here yesterday, he was drinking porridge yesterday, and he woke up hungry in the middle of the night.

If the soldiers are not allowed to eat, how can they fight?

The stout soldier opened his mouth to scold his mother, and the soldiers around him tore at his clothes and signaled him to stop talking.

Xiao Bing asked the person who spoke: "I heard that in the army of Daqi, the food of the Yanbei Army is the best, and the Yanbei Army goes out to fight with all the dried beef. ”

As she spoke, she stuck out her tongue and licked her dry lips, knowing that this was the case, they said that they had gone out with more dry food.

The man laughed, as if he had heard something interesting, he pointed to the soldier's nose and said, "Don't tell me, you only joined the army because of the food of the Yanbei Army?" I don't know which villain lied to you, you might as well go back and sleep, there are longevity noodles and air-dried beef in your dreams. ”

The stout man saw that he was making disrespectful remarks to the creep, and was about to speak, but the creep whispered to him, "Let's go." ”

It's time to go, the barracks have seen it, they've been here for two days, and now it's time to go, and if they don't leave, they'll starve to death.

Their appetites have been squeamish, and they can't fill their stomachs with porridge.

Standing on the hill in the distance, Shen Tong looked down at the military camp in the distance, and she said to Jiang Ermei: "When I was in Xi'an, I heard a lot of stories about the Yanbei Army, but the Yanbei Army here is different from what I imagined. ”

The Yanbei Army she imagined was told to her by Xiao Ren, the mountains roared and the tsunami, and the earth shook.

And the Yanbei army she saw was thin and tired, lax and slow.

Jiang Ermei was listless: "It's not as good as our bandit's den here, there's nothing to see." ”

She is different from Shen Tong, she has seen Yanbei Army, and she has also killed Yanbei Army, she killed Yanbei Army with a small flag by herself, if she is given a general flag, she may be able to kill it all, it is not interesting, she killed ten people, and only robbed five coins of silver, and later Jiang Ermei met Yanbei Army again when she was doing business, and they were all too lazy to kill them, Yanbei Army was too poor and boring.

"Do you think anyone will starve to death?" Shen Tong asked.

Of course, the "people" she said are not ordinary people, but people in the Yanbei Army, they are not generations of military households, they are all recruited, and they come to serve as soldiers in order to have a full stomach, which is not wrong, what is wrong is that they can't eat enough when they become soldiers.

"Hungry to death? People who starve to death don't have oil and water, and my sister-in-law doesn't want them. ”

Jiang Ermei's face was calm, Xu An and Lu You covered their mouths and turned their faces away.

"Let's go." Shen Tong turned around and walked down the hill, and a cat meow came from behind him, Shen Tong turned around helplessly, and took the orange wrapped in fur from Xu An's hand.

Orange was very angry, and said that he would take it out, but as soon as he turned around, he ran away, and it couldn't find her for two whole days.

Shen Tong touched the orange's round head, leaned into its ear and whispered, "Let's go find him now." ”

......

Yun Qi held a broom in his hand, and hit the king of Yanbei County up and down: "Auntie, I will be fifteen after the New Year, not a child, don't beat me with a broom, what a shame." ”

Yun Qi threw the broom and picked up a Qi Mei stick, and the king of Yanbei County wailed, and rushed towards the armor hanging in the corner: "Father, help, A-Niang is going to kill me!" ”

"You tell me the truth, where did your sister go?" The Qi Mei stick in Yun Qi's hand fell down suddenly, the armor was already very old, and she spent a lot of effort repairing it.

The king of Yanbei County looked left and right with concern, and said in a daze: "Yes, where has my sister gone, A-Niang, don't worry, I'll go out and look for it." ”

With that, he pushed open the window and ran out of it.

Where his sister went, he must not tell Ah Niang, otherwise, they don't know what they will do.

Yun Qi didn't know that in addition to Xu An and Lu You, there were three people who had long been forgotten by her.

On the official road, an old man coughed heavily, and the two young juniors who were traveling with him asked with concern: "Master, there is an inn in front, let's rest for half a day before leaving." ”

The old man coughed for a while, finally felt comfortable, and said: "What kind of inn, you can't live, in the inn on this road, eight out of ten are black shops, let's hurry up, we have to rush back one step ahead of Miss Tong." ”

There has been no snow for the past few days, the sky is clear, the sun is warm, and they are well prepared, there are baked cakes, pickles, jerky, and burnt knives.

The old man had walked this road many times, and he was familiar with every fork and path here, not only here, but even the road on the Tartar side.

He is a scout praised by King Yan, and King Yan said that the old official is the eye of this king.

Clairvoyant, old officer.

"Dahua, Ersan, do you see that mountain depression? Don't you underestimate that valley, where gunpowder was buried, don't you believe it? Ask a local person to see if they dare to go in. ”

"Do you see the mountain? There was a hole in the mountain, and there was a big bandit who hid a batch of weapons in that hole. ”

The old official is like a treasure, and after so many years, he still remembers these things. For this reason, he is very pleased, his memory is very good, it means that he is not old, he can see the mountain, he can see the valley, it means that his clairvoyance is still there.

"Actually, it's not too young, and the little boy and Miss Tong are only in their teens." The old officer looked up at the blue and transparent sky, and then looked at the road in front of him, he was not too young, he was not old, there was still a long time to come, and there were many, many things he could do.

"Let's go, don't bother, do you want Miss Tong to wait for us?" The old officer hurried forward and walked forward.

Dahua and Ersan glanced at each other, who rubbed it, it's not your old man's injury, we don't know what you're feeling.
