Chapter Twenty-Four: Mingling
Chapter 24: Mingling
Last night's shower, after the rain, Pingcheng was exceptionally fresh, and the poplar trees on the street were blooming green.
The air that is extremely comfortable to breathe in this way makes Tuoba Jun feel very good.
He put on the golden armor rewarded by the emperor early in the morning and returned to the barracks with his guards.
Standing on the platform of the generals, the commanders and soldiers of the eight military camps have long been greeted under the stage.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Gaoyang for awarding the ...... of the First Flying Eagle General"
The sound of congratulations resounded through the sky:
"His Royal Highness King Gaoyang, the general, is invincible! ……”
"In the barracks, we are all soldiers, so you should call this king a general!" Tuoba said loudly.
All the soldiers looked at each other, and they all said in their hearts:
No matter how big this general is, he is not as noble as His Royal Highness King Gaoyang!
But since His Royal Highness King Gaoyang had an order, the soldiers said respectfully: "No! General! ……”
The generals of the eight military camps were in bright armor, bowed down and stood in front of Tuoba Jun to report to duty one by one.
"Hussar Battalion Commander Li Jun,"
"Commander of the Light Cavalry Battalion,"
"Commander of the Cavalry Battalion,"
"Lu Ling, commander of the cavalry battalion,"
"Abu Khan, the commander of the Shenwu Battalion,"
"Commander of the Shenwei Battalion, Yuwentai,"
"Murong Ye, the commander of the Divine Ce Battalion,"
"Dugu Hong, commander of the Divine Courage Battalion,"
“…… Wait for your report to the general! The commander of the eighth battalion said in unison.
"Okay, everyone, please get up!" Tuoba stretched out his hand to get everyone up.
looked at a large number of soldiers under the pressure of black, and then said loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have been robes for many years, so there is no need to be polite!
Liu Song has repeatedly violated our borders, and war is about to break out at any time.
Therefore, we must be vigorous and waiting!
The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, practice your skills, not only to kill the enemy to protect your family and defend the country, but also for your own life and your parents, wives and children! ”
"No! General! ......" The response of the soldiers was deafening.
When everyone got up, he said loudly: "Okay, let General Ben see how your battalions are doing!" ”
The soldiers of each battalion will practice swords, guns, swords, halberds, draw bows and shoot arrows, climb all kinds of dangerous places, and wade through thorns in waterways and rivers in the wide camp.
Tuoba Jun and the generals of the eight battalions handled military affairs, and the meal was close to noon, and the soldiers rested and ate.
He slipped into a big camp, and now that there was no war and it was food, he wanted to see what the soldiers and ruffians were doing.
In the simple and lively camp, there were noisy shouts and scolding sounds, fist strokes, and orders.
Tuoba gently lifted the corner of the curtain, and several lieutenants and a group of soldiers were in a circle and a circle of fists were in full swing outside:
"Let's play lewd fists! Who's lewd, you're lewd! Who's lewd, I'm lascivious! Who's lewd, he's lewd! ……”
The soldiers in the barracks are lonely, and most of them are not serious drinking orders.
They take pleasure in this, drink a little wine and gamble a little money, and Tuoba Jun has been in the military camp for many years, and it is not strange that he has long been accustomed to it.
The foul sound of orders replied back and forth and was noisy, but it took a long time to not be able to distinguish the winner.
"I'm coming!" Tuoba pushed aside the crowd.
"General? ……”
When everyone saw the general coming, they were all startled, and the captain was even more ashen.
"Don't panic! It's time for meals, not drills.
Today, on the first day of the king's tenure as a general, he rejoices with the people.
Let's see if it's you who's lewd, or if it's the general's lewdness! ”
Tuoba Jun opened his posture and casually pointed to a heroic but simple little soldier in the outer circle:
"Here you go!"
The little soldier had shrunk his shoulders and lowered his head slightly, but when he heard that the general seemed to be looking at himself and talking, and everyone's eyes were also looking at him, he raised his eyes to look.
A clear and handsome face appeared in front of him, with sword eyebrows and sideburns, and phoenix eyes.
His heart pounded!
Standing far away before, he didn't see what kind of winter melon and tofu the general looked like, but he didn't expect the general to be a peerless beautiful man.
“…… No, no, no, the small, the little one just came to report today, and he won't be able to draw a fist. The young man seemed startled and said timidly.
"Just came to report today?" Tuoba Jun looked at him and said, "Where are you from, and what is your name?" ”
"The little Taiyuan people are called Mulan." The kid was frightened for a moment and then hurriedly said loudly, he was not very old, but he pretended to be old.
"Mulan, well, nice name. It's just a little girly! Tuoba said, glanced at him more, and then looked at everyone: "This Mulan is a rookie egg, so who dares to compare with General Ben?" ”
"Fourth! Let's come on the fourth! He's a victorious general in his slasciviousness! ”
The soldiers laughed and laughed, and the most experienced fourth came out to fight with the general.
"Okay, the little one will fight with the general." The fourth child rolled up his sleeves and rubbed his hands.
"Today is a good day, and it is rare for the general to have fun with us. Buy the general to win one to one, buy the fourth to win the upset one to lose ten! Ten to one! A soldier shouted, "Come and bet!" Buy it and leave! Ten to one! ……”
The soldiers and ruffians placed bets one after another, and most of them won by buying the general.
But there are also those who buy the old four to win, after all, one loss and ten upsets are too attractive.
The kid named Mulan was mixed in the ruffians, only watching the excitement but not gambling, and his eyes quietly glanced at the general from time to time.
The fourth child and Tuoba Jun confronted each other like cockfighting:
"Who's lewd, you're lewd! ……”
Diametrically opposed to the filthy content of the fist stroke, Tuoba Jun does not have the slightest obscene taste, and there is a bit of sublime meaning between his eyebrows in addition to domineering leakage.
He kept gesturing rock-paper-scissors in front of him with his right hand, punching like the wind, and striking with murderous intent.
Although he doesn't care about a trivial punch and doesn't care if he wins or loses, he respects every fight.
So he's also extra serious.
He won a few rounds, and in one round, everyone's punches were a little ambiguous, and the fourth didn't admit it.
"Fucking fourth, you bastard! How dare you play a scoundrel in front of the general?! "The ruffians who bought a lot of Tuoba and won shouted.
"Who the saw Lao Tzu cheating?" The fourth turned around and yelled at them.
The fourth child had just finished roaring, but suddenly felt two sharp gazes shooting towards him behind him.
The fourth child suddenly looked back and looked at Tuobajun's cold eyes.
“…… Okay, I'll admit it, don't cheat! The fourth man said.
The corners of Tuoba Jun's mouth curled slightly.
The fourth elder raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and then challenged the general:
"Today is a good day for the general, and when it comes to lewdness, the general must be the leader.
Lewdness is not good for us soldiers, let's be nasty! ”
The crowd burst into laughter......
"Okay, just let the horses come!" Tuoba looked at them with a determined smile.
The fourth clenched his right fist, and they shouted loudly:
"Let's draw a trick! Who's nasty, you're nasty! Who's nasty, I'm nasty! Who's nasty, he's nasty! ……”
Tuoba won three more rounds.
"Let's open some, the whole Pingcheng...... No, in the whole world, whether it is a fist or a battlefield kill, who can win the Flying Eagle General! The soldier said.
The soldiers began to buy Tuoba Jun one-sidedly to win, and no one dared to take such a gamble.
"Okay, no one dares to take it, General Ben takes it, the bureau just now, the old rules!" Tuoba Road.
One to ten, it is still too attractive, and the soldiers and ruffians began to buy the old four to win again.
Tuoba Jun's shear-style fist and knife style are even more aggressive.
When the soldiers were almost disheartened, Zhan Ying came over and said three words in Tuobajun's ear:
"Found it!"
Tuobajun's eyes suddenly revealed brilliance.
As soon as he was distracted, he finally lost to the fourth child, and laughed: "It's still the fourth old ghost!" ”
"It's too difficult to win the general once!" The soldiers jumped up and cheered for joy.
Others scolded and scolded when they lost, and Tuoba laughed when he lost:
"It's rare for this general to lose, and today each battalion will be rewarded with ten altars of burnt knives, plus a pot of braised pork!"
"Long live the General! ……”
"Declare in advance, you can still play boxing, drinking, gambling and money today, and start tomorrow to give General Ben honest training.
Even if it's a meal, there should be no more activities like this. If there is slackness, military law will serve! Tuoba said solemnly.
"Yes......"
The soldiers watched the general leave with a smile on their faces, and whispered one by one:
"Our Flying Eagle General, brave and good at fighting, is truly a great prairie eagle! The god of war of Great Wei! ”
"It's not just the prairie eagle, it's the prairie eagle!"
"I heard that Your Majesty rewarded the golden eagle from Rouran to the general.
The golden eagle! Boy! Glittering with golden light, like a god, tall and mighty, like a general's domineering, it is simply a divine eagle! ”
"Such a divine eagle, even if you look at it, it is an eye-opener!"
"Wait, wait for our Flying Eagle General to tame the Condor, and it will definitely be brought to the battlefield!"
The kid named Mulan also had a strange look in his eyes.
In the tent, the voices of envy and boasting of Tuoba were endless.
Tuoba Jun is such a person, the dignified King of Gaoyang, the eldest grandson of the Emperor, with innate dignity in his bones.
But since he was a child, in his military career, he would mix with the ruffians, and he himself was like a domineering and banditry ruffian.
When fighting, he will take the lead, so the soldiers he leads are full of morale and move forward bravely.
Occasionally, in order to boost morale, he would personally cook a few dishes to reward the soldiers.
The soldiers were close to him.
Even if he is now awarded the highest honor, the first rank of the Flying Eagle General, he will still mingle with the soldiers.
Therefore, everyone in the barracks, from the generals to the soldiers, was happy and convinced of him.
