Chapter 366: A Pot of Chicken Soup

Lord Wang, the fruit that has just been picked from the mountains, come and taste it. ”

A bearded officer holding a pile of strangely shaped fruits rushed into the brick and stone cave, and the first thing he did was to beckon King Su to come and try it.

King Su took the initiative to ask for battle this time, followed the twelve guards of the Beijing division to leave Beijing together, and reported to Xiao Jinwu, who had galloped thousands of miles to help the western front, thinking that even if he couldn't go to the front line in person, he could at least see the real battlefield.

Who doesn't know that Xiao Jinwu is determined to die this time, and even he doesn't know if he can go back, how dare he let the prince follow him on an adventure?

Xiao Jinwu is also desperate enough, and he didn't even see King Su's face and waved his pen to let him garrison Liangzhou, just because Feng Changsheng, the general of Liangzhou, was his old department, and he was extremely cautious and could ensure the safety of King Su.

Feng Changsheng heard that King Su was coming, and suddenly one head and two big, if Xiao Jinwu's army was defeated on the front line, Liangzhou would bear the brunt, and he couldn't care about the safety of this dragon son and grandson.

After racking his brains for several days, Feng Changsheng also came up with a good way, didn't King Su strongly ask to go to the front line in person? Then let's go to the Winter Fence Fort.

The so-called Donglan Fort is a border fortress in the southeast of Liangzhou, which is rarely visited on weekdays, just because behind here is the vast Liangzhou Plain, which will build a fortress on the top of the mountain, leaving 3,000 men and horses as a garrison.

Feng Changsheng predicted that as long as Changxing City was still alive, the Southern Dynasty army would not have the time and energy to divide its troops to fight Donglan Fort, and King Su would be absolutely safe.

King Su naturally didn't know Feng Changsheng's plans, and when he heard that he could go to the front line, he went to the front line, and after he arrived, he found that it was such a ghost place, and he was immediately depressed.

However, King Su did not complain at all, he ate and lived with the soldiers here, refused any special treatment, although he was the deputy general of the garrison, he did the same work with the most basic soldiers, and it only took half a month to get familiar with everything here.

At first, the soldiers were in awe and awe of this prince, but after a long time, they found that he was not only approachable, but also righteous, especially for a long time to give generously to the soldiers in difficulty, and even the jade pendant he carried with him was given to his mother's seriously ill comrades.

The army has always been the most important emotion, and King Su's performance immediately made him mingle with the soldiers, and if no one reminded him, everyone would even forget the unattainable identity behind him.

Until the Battle of the Valley, the news of the Northern Dynasty's victory over the Wuling pro-army came, and Donglan Fort was jubilant, and at the same time, everyone knew that the deputy general nicknamed the little general was about to leave here.

At this time, the soldiers found that everyone had long been accustomed to the existence of this little general, this farewell, although the end of the world is close, but the identity is too far, maybe it will become a farewell.

Everyone was reluctant, but no one said anything, just doing things silently in their own way, hoping to leave the best memory for the little general's trip to Donglan Fort.

"Okay, okay, Xie Er, just the fruits you don't know where to get them, don't let the little general eat the stomach, take it far!"

The officer who was adding firewood to the fire immediately laughed when he saw the beard, and the soldiers around him also coaxed.

Xie Lao Er was unconvinced and said: "What do you know, this is the most delicious fruit in the mountains, ordinary people can't find it if they want to eat it, don't believe you ask the little general, is the fruit good last time?" ”

Everyone looked at King Su, who was wearing a suit of armor and was squatting beside the fire stewing a pheasant that had just been hit, and subconsciously covered his stomach when he heard this.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, but it's a bit unbearable to pull it for three nights in a row!"

King Su scratched his scalp and said a word, and the soldiers immediately laughed when they heard this.

Xie Lao Er's face turned red and argued: "That was my negligence for a while, and I forgot to tell the little general that he must peel the skin, and this fruit has to be eaten like this." ”

As he spoke, Xie Lao Er grabbed a blue-green fruit, broke it with both hands, and immediately tore the thick peel open, revealing the tender yellow flesh, and a special light fragrance suddenly overflowed.

Xie Lao Er bit down on the flesh, chewed it twice and swallowed it into his stomach, and finally did not forget to smack his lips, as if he was savoring the wonderful taste of the fruit.

When the soldiers saw his appearance, they were all a little greedy, and a few anxious people had reached out to get it, but they were beaten back by Xie Lao Er alone.

"What are you doing, you laughed at me just now, and now you're here to beg for something, shameless, tell you that this fruit is only distributed to the little general today, and none of you should rob it!"

"Cut, stingy, when we are rare!"

As soon as the soldiers heard this, they immediately dispersed, except for the youngest bean sprout, whose eyes were fixed on the fruit and refused to take it away.

Bean sprouts are only fourteen years old this year, and his father and mother starved to death in last year's famine, and he fled here, and the generals of the garrison saw that he was pitiful, so they asked for a new recruit from Shangfeng, and recruited him.

King Su saw that the bean sprouts were almost drooling, so he smiled and said, "My share is for the bean sprouts!" ”

As soon as these words came out, before Xie Lao Er could react, the bean sprouts were like a spirit monkey in the mountains, reaching out and pulling out two fruits and turning around, and he didn't forget to say in his mouth: "Thank you, little general!" ”

"Hey!"

Xie Lao Er stomped his feet and said, "I picked the fruit, why don't you thank me?" ”

The bean sprouts rolled their eyes at him, tore open the peel and swallowed the flesh in one bite, learning to smack his mouth as Xie Lao Er, but he didn't say a word of thanks, which made the soldiers laugh again.

Xie Lao Er shook his head, and didn't care about him, in fact, there were originally bean sprouts in these fruits, he was young, and his background was pitiful, and the veterans took good care of him.

"Come on, the soup is almost ready, this time I used all the rest of the pepper, do you smell good?"

King Su stirred the iron pot with a wooden spoon, the inside was bubbling with "poof", the oil was rolling up and down in the thick soup, and the tender white chicken was stewed so badly that people couldn't help but swallow just by looking at it.

"Incense, I really want to, I smelled it over there!"

Wang Wenhong, the little flag officer, leaned over to the side of the pot and sniffed deeply, and his throat couldn't help but move violently.

Xie Lao Er also came over with a bowl and said with a smile: "Our mouths have been raised by the little general, and now we can't drink the soup without pepper, what can we do in the future?" ”

King Su said with a smile: "I came in a hurry this time, so I brought such a small bag of pepper, which was a disadvantage to the brothers, but everyone can rest assured, when you have the opportunity to come to the capital after the battle, you will definitely come to my house and knock on the door, and I will take you to the best restaurant in the capital to eat for three days and three nights!" ”

"Really?"

"What else do you need to say?"

"Okay!"

There was a burst of cheers from the cave.

At this moment, a thin soldier in his twenties rushed in panting, and when Wang Wenhong saw that it was him, he smiled and said: "Li Guo, you dog nose, smell the incense, I don't have your share today." ”

Originally, he was just joking, but he didn't expect Li Guo to shake his head gloomily: "Eat...... I can't eat, I found the traces of the soldiers and horses of the Southern Dynasty, it's fifteen miles away, I have to hurry to see the general! ”

"What?"

When the soldiers heard this, they immediately fell silent.

King Su threw the wooden spoon into the pot, picked up the waist knife in his hand and said, "The military situation is urgent, I will go to see the general, everyone hurry up and prepare for battle." ”

After speaking, he followed Li Guo out of the hiding cave, and the rest of the soldiers were also busy, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Xie Lao Er shook his head, took the iron pot off the fire with regret, and sniffed it deeply, then reluctantly covered the fire with an iron cover.

Half a moment later, the hurried Ju General remembered that the cave of the Tibetan soldiers was suddenly empty, leaving only the pot of boiled chicken soup alone with a tempting aroma.
