Chapter 35: The Matter of Wine

Zhang Xi really didn't expect that the place where Zhang Fei hid the wine was actually in the mud behind his military tent, so close, Zhang Xi really didn't notice it before.

Kou Feng didn't expect that he was taking his brother to dig wine, and he was actually caught by Zhang Fei.

Guan Ping didn't expect that his irascible third uncle saw that Kou Feng's face was black when he stole wine, so he couldn't help it and didn't start whipping.

And Zhang Fei...... He didn't expect that the wine he had worked so hard to hide would finally be found by the black-bellied marching Sima.

The four of them looked at each other, and the scene was a little silent and awkward for a while.

Zhang Xi just looked at Zhang Fei with a smile, Zhang Fei had a gloomy face, silent and didn't know what he was thinking, and the remaining two people, Guan Ping and Kou Feng, looked at each other.

In the end, Guan Ping reacted quickly and was more sensible, so he secretly dragged Kou Feng, dragged Kou Feng, who still didn't understand the situation, and quickly fled the scene.

It's really not that Guan Ping is unkind, it's mainly about this now...... It has to be solved behind closed doors.

The position of marching Sima has the responsibility of supervising the whole army, and the objects of supervision theoretically include Zhang Fei as the chief general.

But the marching Sima is only the second-in-command in the barracks after all, the real number one is Zhang Fei, and the marching Sima is Zhang Fei's subordinate after all.

Therefore, when the commander violates a military order, in the case of not a particularly principled issue, it is generally solved by two people behind closed doors.

Obviously, Zhang Fei and Zhang Xi also thought the same way, and even Zhang Xi took the lead, asking Zhang Fei to go back to the military tent first, and the two of them sat down and talked.

Zhang Fei's mind is relatively simple, he really doesn't think that drinking secretly is a big deal...... Or that he felt that he was hiding and drinking, which was already a face-saving for Zhang Xi, after all, before Zhang Xi came, he drank openly.

As for Zhang Xi, he actually didn't expect Zhang Fei to get rid of this problem.

This is a lord who loses his life for drinking, whether it is romance or history.

But if you should be persuaded, you still have to say it.

"The three generals know why the lord forbids alcohol?!" Zhang Xi asked calmly.

But Zhang Fei was already in the spirit of twelve points at this time.

Last time, because of carelessness, I accidentally fell into the trap of this black-bellied Sima, which caused all my wine collection to be rewarded to the soldiers in the battalion...... You can't be fooled this time.

"It's to prevent people from wasting food by making wine." Zhang Fei first answered Zhang Xi's question, and then immediately explained, "But my old Zhang's wine is sent by a large local family, and it is not a waste of food when it is brewed for aging, right?!" ”

Right, this wine was already wine long before the eldest brother's order, and it can't be turned back into food...... This can't be regarded as a subjective intentional mistake, right?!

There is one thing to say, Zhang Fei's statement is reasonable, the only loophole is - in these years, the family will say this when they want to drink, but in fact, when this wine was brewed, you can't delve into it.

Zhang Xi didn't want to talk to Zhang Fei about this, but changed the topic and asked again, "That's the people, but what about the army?!" Since Emperor Xiaowu, alcohol has always been forbidden in the army, and the general won't know it, right?! ”

The prohibition of alcohol in the army is said to have been established since the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty..... In other words, there is indeed such a provision.

It doesn't have anything to do with new sake or old sake, right?!

The position on this issue has changed, and it is Zhang Fei who is not good at breaking with Zhang Xi.

There are clearly stipulated things, even if it has been circulated to the present and is a piece of waste paper, but on the bright side, it is still necessary to give some face.

Zhang Xi looked at Zhang Fei's appearance and knew that this guy still didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.

But Zhang Xi can't tell Zhang Fei that you will die in the end from drinking alcohol...... I could only sigh and say, "Do the three generals know why Emperor Xiaowu explicitly ordered that alcohol was forbidden in the army?!" ”

Of course, Zhang Fei, who is a veteran of the army, knows this question.

But because he knew, Zhang Fei still kept his mouth shut and didn't speak.

Officers and soldiers in the army drink alcohol, and after a long time, they are prone to laziness and cause trouble.

The main general drank too much, and once there was a commotion in the army, there was no one to preside over the overall situation, and the officers and men in the army drank too much, and they had no power to fight back when the enemy attacked.

Of course, Zhang Fei understands all these things, so he insists on keeping his mouth shut and not speaking.

After all, it's still your own fault.

Zhang Fei is not the kind of person who likes to make excuses and throw pots, and it is a shame to say something like "it's not a march to fight now".

Zhang Fei continued to be silent, and Zhang Xi was a little helpless.

Zhang Xi could see that Zhang Fei actually understood anything, he was just good at this, but he couldn't change his habit of liking to drink.

In that case...... Zhang Xi thought for a while, stood up, bowed to Zhang Fei, and then said, "In this case, please ask the general to show the lord, remove the post of Sima of the Xi Marching Army, and use it for other purposes." ”

Zhang Fei was visibly flustered, and then panicked.

"Hey, what's the Yuan Chang?!" Zhang Fei quickly got up, grabbed Zhang Xi's arm, and said, "Why is this so...... It's a big deal, I just don't drink in the future! ”

Let's not mention that Zhang Fei and Zhang Xi get along well these days, and the cooperation in military training together is also quite tacit.

Let's just say that Zhang Xi resigned with Liu Bei because of his drinking in the army...... Then Liu Bei will definitely not be able to spare Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei hurriedly grabbed Zhang Xi, and while saying good things, he dragged Zhang Xi back to his seat.

Zhang Xi is also helpless...... The strength is not as great as that of others.

Reluctantly sat down again, Zhang Xi was quite calm, and continued, "The third general doesn't have to say such words...... Brook knows that you can't get rid of this problem! ”

Zhang Fei smiled awkwardly, and didn't return to his main seat, just sat down next to Zhang Xi, and said to Zhang Xi with a smile, "Eh, where did the chief say, I will naturally count what Zhang says, otherwise ......"

"What else?!" Zhang Xi squinted at Zhang Fei and said with a smile, "Shouldn't the three generals still swear to heaven and earth?!" ”

People in this year are still very sensitive to vows, Zhang Fei glanced at Zhang Xi, and smirked again.

Zhang Xi also had no choice but to patiently continue, "Xi wants to resign from the post of marching Sima, it is not the general's fault, but Xi is afraid of death." Xi really didn't want to march with the general to fight one day, but he happened to be attacked by the enemy army at night, and the general was drunk and unconscious. At that time, I don't know how many soldiers will die because of the general's drunkenness, and there is no brook among them?! Creek spares his life, so he takes his leave. ”

"Don't, don't!" Zhang Fei grabbed Zhang Xi again, and said with a little shyness, "I don't drink anymore..... It's always okay if you don't drink it, right?! ”

Zhang Xi squinted at Zhang Fei, but said, "Third general, we don't get along for a day or two, do you believe this?!" ”

"Why don't you believe it?!" Zhang Fei suddenly stood up, as if his personality had been insulted by something, pointed in the direction behind the military tent, and said, "Wait for me to go and smash those wines!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Fei suddenly walked out of the tent quickly, while Zhang Xi sat in place and did not move.

Only a fool would believe that this good wine blackman dared to smash his own wine jar.

But when Zhang Xi really heard the sound of smashing the wine jar, he realized that it was not true.

This one...... Gotta get out and stop it.

Zhang Xi somewhat overestimated Zhang Fei's face, and underestimated the discipline of the people of this year.

This is an era in which two words can lead to the possibility of drawing a knife and killing people.

Zhang Xi threatened to resign again, and repeatedly questioned Zhang Fei's words and questioned Zhang Fei's integrity...... Zhang Fei just smashed the wine jar, which was already good-tempered.

But Zhang Xi's original intention was not this.

Zhang Xi really wants to persuade Zhang Fei to drink less or quit drinking as much as possible, but there must be a premise for this matter, that is, the relationship with Zhang Fei cannot be stiffened.

In this troubled world, no matter how powerful a scribe is, without the support of these generals, he will not only be unable to do anything, but he may also die at any time.

Zhang Xi was really afraid of death, so as much as possible, he didn't want to fall out with Zhang Fei.

But if Zhang Fei really smashed all the wine jars, it would be difficult to say.

It's really hard to say whether this Jiu Mengzi will have an opinion on Zhang Xi because of this, even if he doesn't turn his face, the relationship that he has established with great difficulty before will be greatly reduced.

hurriedly ran out and grabbed Zhang Fei who was angry.

Of course, Zhang Fei didn't really want to smash the wine jar, after all, for an alcoholic, wine is really the root of life.

But the problem is that Zhang Fei came out of the military tent, and Zhang Xi didn't chase him out, making it clear that he didn't believe that he would really smash ...... Whether it was for the sake of face or for his own reputation, Zhang Fei had to smash it.

Can...... It's really distressing, these are all fine wines, and it took half a year to collect such a point.

Originally, Zhang Fei was reluctant to smash it, but now Zhang Xi came out to stop him, and Zhang Fei immediately borrowed the donkey from the slope not to smash it..... Otherwise, with Zhang Xi's little strength, he can hold Zhang Fei?!

But he still had to be polite and polite, and shouted vigorously, "Yuan Chang, don't stop me, I smashed these harmful things today......"

Zhang Xi saw Zhang Fei's nonsense, and immediately understood..... It seems that he came out a little early, and this black guy is still installed.

But it's not a big problem, anyway, the purpose is not to turn his face with Zhang Fei, this guy can pretend if he wants.

"The meaning of the three generals, Xi also knows!" Zhang Xi arched his hand at Zhang Fei and said, "But this wine is always made of grain, and it is a pity to smash it, please think twice about the three generals and deal with it as appropriate." ”

Zhang Xi was very considerate, not only asked Zhang Fei to pretend to be a statement, but also deliberately gave Zhang Fei a step - these wines are not easy to waste, you can watch and deal with them yourself.

And Zhang Fei naturally understands what Zhang Xi means.

After thinking about it for a while, he found that he could not keep the wine, so he said, "It is better to reward the sergeants and soldiers of the army according to the old practice...... Well, next month is the military drill ceremony, and the time to reward the meritorious people in the military drill ceremony, how about it?! ”

Well, your wine, feel free.

As for the month of the month, will you steal the drink...... Zhang Xi didn't speak again, but bowed to Zhang Fei and expressed his attitude.

And Zhang Fei, probably guessed what Zhang Xi was thinking, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said with a smile, "Yuan Chang, you have worked hard these days, why don't you pick a jar from these wines, and you will be punished for confiscating my old Zhang, okay?!" ”

...... Are you bribing me?!
