Chapter 53: Wang Banner Fish Dragon Drum
Xu Xiao usually sleeps with ordinary soldiers on the Beiliang border all the year round, and it seems that he has to stare at Beimang's barbarian soldiers who are not inferior to Beiliang Iron Cavalry in terms of number to feel at ease. After the death of the princess, the children gradually grew up, first the lord of the county Xu Zhihu married Jiangnan, and then the second daughter Xu Weixiong went to study in the Yin School Palace, four years ago, His Royal Highness the Prince went out to travel, and there was a Huang Man'er in the palace, but now it is completely gone.
It's just that these emperors will be in charge of the affairs of the marquis, and the blind man can't take care of it, and the news about Dazhu Country for so many years is hearsay when he went to the winery to buy sake lees, and he has heard it, otherwise what else can he do? Follow the Great Pillar Kingdom for many years, but when I was young, I saw it once as a cavalryman, at that time, it was the number one pioneer in the army, Wang Jian Wang Juling, Yique bloody battle, and the old Xu who was not blind rushed out of the city gate with the Great Pillar Country, and watched General Wang kneel on the ground, holding up the Wanjun City Gate with both hands, and let Liaodong Pao Ze rush out of the city.
All the Beiliang soldiers firmly believe that Dazhu Guo is the number one hero in the world, the four famous generals of the Spring and Autumn Period, just looking at the battle record, Dazhu Guo is definitely not as good as Ye Baikui, who was praised by Shangyin School Palace as the only one in five hundred years, before the battle of Guanlan City, Ye Baikui claimed to have never lost a hundred battles in his life. Not to mention that this Xichu Ye Wusheng who lost the national war in just one game, that is, the Dongyue Horse Lord Wang Sui in the past, is also more chic and calm than Xu Xiao, where will there be only a few hundred horses left to flee in defeat. But the most stubborn, in addition to the general of the same dynasty, there is only Xu Xiao, not to mention the Spring and Autumn Nine Kingdoms, the iron hooves under the banner of King Xu Zi destroyed the Six Kingdoms, the Confucian general who became famous twenty years later than Xu Xiao, but two insignificant small countries, where can they stand side by side with the King of Beiliang?
This is the ability of the Great Pillar Kingdom!
In the middle of the month, the blind old man Xu was not willing to spend copper plates to buy sake lees, so he could only smack his saliva and chat to satisfy his hunger.
The blind man is old, and he always likes to sit on the wooden pier when the weather is warm and recall the heroism of the year, think about the way of life taught by his predecessors and soldiers when he was young, think about the red eyes when he went into battle with a crossbow when he returned to the head, think about the brothers in the army around him who were also cut off like wheat, think about the roar of the enemy's iron horse hooves on the ground, and think about the last decisive battle in the spring and autumn of the Xilei Wall.
Lao Xu tilted his head, his cheeks that had been sharpened like old bark by the wind and sand of the war were close to the smoothed wooden crutches, most of the old pawns were like this, they were used to holding swords and crossbows, and they were lucky to quit the army alive, and they always felt that there was something missing at hand, and after the leg was broken, this crutch helped a lot.
Over the years, I have always heard a group of scholars say yin and yang weird words, saying that most of the old soldiers who have worked hard with Da Zhuguo have died, and no one has a good end, in the end, only Xu Xiao has become a king with a different surname, and Lao Xu Ruo's legs are constant, and he will definitely jump to his feet and scold his mother, these readers who have their brains in the water know how to be eggs! If even the Great Pillar Kingdom was not regarded as the king of Beiliang, wouldn't so many old soldiers who did not hesitate to fight their best breath die in vain, and who else remembered the 600 iron armor in Liaodong back then, and now the 300,000 Beiliang iron cavalry that no one in the world is competing for?
The blind Lao Xu spat and scolded: "Dog day readers are the most boring, and a slap from Lao Xu can slap out their mouths full of teeth!"
Now Lao Xu, who has to take a few more steps to breathe, has a familiar voice above his head: "Brother Xu, is your body still strong?"
Lao Xu hurriedly got up, and said that this was the yamen official who came to the house to deliver silver, and on the spot he ordered several servants to repair the thatched hut, and sure enough, the thatched hut has not leaked wind and rain since then, and one tael of silver per month is sent to the hand on time. Lao Xu is a veteran soldier who has fought countless battles, and vaguely guesses that this yamen errand has also been fought in the army, there is a sense of evil, don't think it is really a foolish thing, the bold Lao Xu does not eat pigs and kill pigs, this is true, but he has lived in the army for most of his life, and those soldiers who have killed dozens of people are more vicious than ordinary people when they eat.
The man gently pressed the blind old man Xu, who was about to stand up with a cane, and laughed loudly, "Brother Xu is sitting and talking, how can you be comfortable, how can you come, and be polite to me." ”
Lao Xu didn't insist, when he got older, he was not as reckless as the hairy guy, he "looked" at the man sideways, and said in a comfortable mood: "It's okay, it's okay, I can eat and sleep, so I'll wait for the end of the month to buy some wine and meat to treat myself." On this day, the world is peaceful, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and it is very good, this is a conscience. Lao Xu is blind, and he can't say that he is blind, my lord, isn't that the truth?"
The visitor smiled and said, "Lao Xu, you are not blind at all, you have a good heart." It's much better than many officials and generals. ”
The blind old man Xu said with an old face: "My lord, this is a serious word, I don't dare to take it." Our Lao Xu is a Beiliang old pawn who has not died, I used to hear a kid surnamed Xu talk about what kind of horse leather shroud, and I don't understand it very well, anyway, it's better to die than to live, but I'm not afraid of death at this time, and I won't lose anything if I live to this age. It's just worrying about one thing, one day in the future, I can't wake up when I sleep, and I'm dead when I die, but there is no one who carries the coffin, this thing is worrying, that Xu boy laughed and said with a smile that he really couldn't look for him, but this kid couldn't say that he couldn't see him for a whole year, I looked at the hanging. ”
The official in the yamen said calmly: "That Xu boy promised to carry your coffin?"
The blind old man Xu was full of energy in an instant, "No, this Xu boy is a good person, and the blind old Xu has not made a mistake in recognizing people, but this kid has done a lot of things, and he climbs the wall and steals ducks, and I am worried that he will not be able to find a good daughter-in-law in the future." Two days ago, Xu Xiaozi also brought a pot of good wine to me to chat, but he said that he was going out again, but unfortunately I was woken up by the smell of wine at night, and the remaining half of the pot of wine was accidentally drunk, or I could treat the adults today. Ha Luha, my lord, talk to you about this mess, don't think Lao Xu can't hold this broken mouth. ”
The man laughed, "No." Now it's hard for me to talk to someone, Brother Xu, do you want to drink? I forgot when I came, when I got older, I don't drink at home, and today I made an exception, if Brother Xu can afford to wait, I will let people buy it. ”
The blind old man Xu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, it is important for adults to be busy with business, where can adults waste time here and spend money." ”
The man smiled, and enjoyed the afternoon sun with the blind old Xu, and the warmth spread on his body was more comfortable than any brocade clothes.
Lao Xu leaned sideways with his hands on crutches, and said in a trance: "The biggest regret in this life is that I didn't get closer to take a look at Dazhuguo, an old brother who passed away last year was much luckier, Jingyang fought a battle, killed the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, he was only a hundred steps away from Dazhuguo, the old brother closed his eyes and still talked about this, look at him proud, he is going to be out of breath and compete with us." ”
The one next to him, who had always been regarded by the blind old man Xu as a petty official of the yamen, said softly: "Xu Xiao is nothing more than a hunchbacked old man, what is there to see." ”
Moment.
The blind old man's mind was blank.
Since he can walk off the battlefield with millions of bones alive, can he be a fool?
In Beiliang, who dares to say that Xu Xiao is just a hunchbacked old pawn?
Who else but the Great Pillar Country?!
The dry body of the blind old man, who needed crutches to walk, trembled violently.
The most embarrassing old man who was alive in Bei Lianglai actually burst into tears, turned his head, his lips trembled, and choked up: "Dazhuguo?"
The man didn't admit or deny it, but just shouted out to the blind old man: "Brother Xu." ”
I saw that the blind old Xu was like crazy, struggling to get up, ignoring the prevention of the Great Pillar Kingdom, throwing away his crutches, kneeling on the ground, using all the strength of his body, using up the pride of thirty years to fight the Six Kingdoms, and the spirit of ten years of survival, suppressing the passionate crying of an old soldier, kowtowing and saying: "One of the eighteen-old character battalions in Jinzhou, the last cavalry of the Yugu Battalion, Xu Yongguan, see General Xu!"
The eighteenth battalion of Jinzhou is now all gone, just like the six hundred iron armor whose prestige is dying day by day, the younger Beiliang cavalry has only heard of some bloody deeds at most.
Fish Drum Camp.
It is known as the first death battle under Xu Zi.
The last battle was the west wall, where the princess was dressed in white like snow, knocking on the fish drum camp and other people-high fish and dragon drums with both hands, and won the battle of the Liyang Dynasty in one go. Nearly 1,000 mermaid drum battalions fought to the death, and in the end only 16 people survived, and the cavalry Xu Yongguan lost an eye in that battle, and pulled out the arrows and eyes together, and fought again until he fainted and died in the pile of dead people.
In fact, in the hearts of the old soldiers, whether it is the Great Pillar Kingdom or the King of Beiliang, they are all called by outsiders, and they are still willing to shout General Xu in their hearts!
The blind old Xu, who was supported by Xu Xiao and sat on the wooden pier again, was full of tears, but said with a smile: "In this life, I have lived enough." General Xu, the pawn dared to ask, isn't that Xu boy?"
Xu Xiao said softly: "It's my son Xu Fengnian." ”
The old pawn pressed his face to the crutches that were taken back by Da Zhuguo himself, and muttered repeatedly: "Enough has lived, enough has ...... lived"
The last person in the fish drum camp, the old soldier Xu Yongguan slowly closed his eyes.
General Xu, the princess, has a good son.
I always have to go down to the old brothers to drink, and tell them that the sound of the hooves of the 300,000 Beiliang Iron Riders will only make the enemy more and more frightened.
Under the banner of King Xu, the fish and dragon drums sounded.
The old soldier Xu Yongguan died peacefully. My QT room is open!Beacon Opera Princes Official QT Room No.[1655]
