Zhen Wuchen is a native of the Han Dynasty in Liaodong, has studied for a few years, and his family has a small amount of savings.

Nine years ago, Gao Yongchang rebelled, killed Xiao Baoxian, left behind in Tokyo, established the Great Bohai State, proclaimed himself emperor, and occupied more than 50 prefectures and counties in eastern Liao.

Zhen Wuchen's family was ruined at that time, and together with other hungry people, he was recruited by the Liao State as a "resentful army". There are eight battalions in the resentment army, and Guo Yaoshi is the leader of one of them.

Emperor Tianzuo fled, Northern Liao was established, and the resentful army was renamed the Changsheng Army.

Guo Yaoshi led 8,000 infantry and 500 cavalry, and led four counties in one state to surrender to the Song Dynasty, and Zhen Wuchen was the cavalry officer who surrendered to the Song Dynasty together. He even participated in the surprise attack on Yanjing, and mixed into the city with makeup in advance, and was responsible for leading the fine work to open the city gate.

It was also at that time that Zhen Wuchen saw for the first time how mentally retarded the generals and soldiers of the Song State were.

At that time, the inner city of Yanjing was still in the hands of Northern Liao, and the Song army did not even occupy the outer city. If it is a large army besieging the city, it is just that, but the Song army is a small force surprise attack, and the main force of Northern Liao may come back at any time.

In this case, the Song army did not organize an attack on the inner city, but plundered the people under the leadership of the officers, and also drank and drank so much that they were full of meat and vegetables. As a result, the people of Yanjing were forced to resist, and the Song army fought with the people inexplicably, and then was blocked in the city by the Liao army who returned to the rescue of the division, and was almost wiped out.

Since then, Zhen Wuchen has looked down on Song Jun and thinks that it is all a group of fools and soft eggs.

As Song Huizong continued to bring in supplies, Guo Yaoshi's horses and armor increased, and the structure of his army also changed, and the cavalry force gradually reached 2,000 people.

When he went south, Zhen Wuchen was already a general in command of a thousand cavalry.

Whether it is Jin Guo or Zhu Ming, Zhen Wuchen has no ideas, he only recognizes his own handsome pharmacist Guo.

But in the past two months, Pharmacist Guo has behaved too cowardly, as if he has become a dog raised by Jinren. And these old people who are from the army are a group of pups.

Zhen Wuchen doesn't like to be a dog!

"It's a dressing change!"

A woman in a Taoist robe came over with a medicine box on her back, changing the medicine for the wounded soldier in the next bed.

Zhen Wuchen thought it was very interesting that in the barracks of the Changsheng Army, if there were women in the barracks, they would definitely be camp prostitutes. But the Sichuan Gorge Rebels let the woman take care of the wounded, and they were not afraid of causing any chaos?

Not long after, the female Taoist came to Zhen Wuchen's side.

Seeing that his face was good, Zhen Wuchen couldn't help but tease: "What does the little lady believe?" Can you find a good partner for marriage? ”

The female Dao was expressionless, and turned back to a female nun and shouted: "Team leader, bed 24 is teasing me." ”

"Got it." The nun responded.

The other wounded soldiers turned their heads to look at each other, some glaring at each other, some gloating.

The female Taoist spoke with a Western accent, which was very common in Shuzhong, Hanzhong, Shaanxi, Hedong, Jinzhou, and Fujian, and Zhen Wuchen could barely understand it, but he needed to guess it.

Zhen Wuchen is just habitually lip-talking, he has an injury in the chest, where can he really insult the doctor?

The woman took apart the gauze, wiped it slightly with spirits, and then said, "It's no big deal, it will heal in a few days." ”

As he spoke, he took out a clay pot, scraped out the ointment with a piece of bamboo, and gently applied it to the wound.

The movements were very gentle, which reminded Zhen Wuchen of his dead mother, and he regretted that he had spoken out just now.

At the time of his first treatment, he had a fever and was dazed, and he did not have any intuitive feelings. Now that I have come to my senses, I finally realize the benefits of female doctors, who are not as rude as male doctors.

Before the medicine was changed, the nun led an officer over, and the head of the wounded barracks also followed.

Comparing the bed information, the officer asked, "Zhen Wuchen, right?" ”

"I'm Zhen Wuchen." Zhen Wuchen said.

The officer said: "Verbal molestion of medical staff is a first offense, and it will be recorded once. If you dare to move your hands and feet just now, even if it is a first-time offender, you will have to beat the military stick! Remember, if you dare to commit another offense, you will be demoted at least and kicked out of the army at worst! ”

Zhen Wuchen opened his mouth to speak, turned his head to look at the bed next door, that guy was gloating.

Judging from the reactions of the wounded soldiers around him, it is not that he deliberately suppresses himself, but that the rules here are like this.

After a short time, the officer, the female Taoist and the female nun all walked away, and Zhen Wuchen began to look at the situation here.

He had been in a semi-comatose state with a fever and had only taken a few casual glances when he woke up.

This is supposed to be the main hall of the temple, and the statues of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are still there, and everything is cleaned.

The environment is very comfortable, a hundred times better than the wounded barracks of the victorious army.

"Second brother, this time you have made a great contribution, I'm afraid you can reward twenty acres of land, right?"

"I don't know, it should be about the same. You're not bad, at least five acres and eight acres. ”

"Alas, it's a pity that Brother Yuan is gone. If his Hun family heard the news, he didn't know that he would cry for a long time, and his youngest son was not yet a year old. ”

"What can be done? The marshal treats us well, we give our lives to the marshal, and if we die, we will die. At least as a soldier under the marshal, he is not afraid that his family will not be settled, and he will be rewarded with a pension, which is enough for the Yuan brothers to eat and drink without worry. ”

"My brother hasn't asked for a daughter-in-law yet, and he's about the same age. He said that he also wanted to be a soldier, but my father would not let him. ”

"My brother is married to a widow and a half-grown son. Don't dislike being a widow, but it really hurts a man, and the family is well managed, much more nimble than my mother-in-law's hands and feet. ”

"I'm afraid I don't raise my brother as a son."

"Hahahaha, it looks like. When my brother marries a widow, it's like having an old lady. ”

"Well, I don't know when this battle will end. Most of my family's land will be ploughed next year, and we will be able to harvest a lot of grain in the future. When he was old enough to become a soldier, he would go home and farm, and he would be happy to think about it. ”

"Isn't it? It's been a few years since I went back, and I couldn't even think about it. I fled from Shaanxi, my family only has a few acres of thin land, and I have to work for the landlord so that I will not starve to death. ”

"When the marshal wins the world, the prime minister will be the emperor first, and the marshal will be the emperor again, and there will be two good emperors. All the people in the world can live a good life for decades. ”

“……”

Zhen Wuchen listened silently to the content of the wounded soldier's chat, although his accent was a little heavy, he could roughly guess what he was saying.

It made him a little dazed.

The life in the mouths of the wounded soldiers is what Zhen Wuchen once dreamed of, and it is also the dream of countless resentful soldiers.

This dream has long been shattered, and Youzhou is sandwiched between various forces, and there are not many people willing to farm the land in peace, so they can only recruit displaced people to cultivate those borderless lands. As for the soldiers, they are in danger all day long, and even if they are given land, they do not take it seriously.

All I think about is fooling around, one day at a time, who knows when I will die?

Zhen Wuchen couldn't help but think of his family, he had already married a wife before he became a homeless person, and he was the daughter of a small landowner in the village. Although he is not rich, his life is still passable, but the taxes of the Liao State are getting heavier and heavier, and he encounters Gao Yongchang's bastard rebellion.

Parents, wives and children, all gone.

Later, the Song Dynasty was stationed in Yanjing, and Zhen Wuchen also became a horseman, he robbed a woman to be his wife, and even raised two concubines. But the feelings of these three wives and concubines Zhen Wuchen are not deep, and what he misses in his heart is still the original match.

Suddenly, Zhen Wuchen was a little envious of these wounded soldiers, their luck was much better than that of the Han people in the north.

"It's time to eat!"

A gang leader shouted.

Wounded soldiers who were able to go to the ground walked out to eat on their own.

Zhen Wuchen not only had trauma to his chest, but also cracked several ribs, which hurt when he moved, and continued to lie on the bed.

I saw that there were constantly men coming with food, and the wounded soldiers who could sit up sat down and ate by themselves. If you can't sit up, you will be fed by a female nurse.

"Can you move?" The person who asked the question was the female Tao who had been molested before.

"Yes." Zhen Wuchen tried to sit up, but he gasped a few times in pain.

The woman said, "Lie down, I'll feed you." ”

Zhen Wuchen could tell who was the officer and who was the ordinary soldier from the chat of the wounded soldier before, and couldn't help asking: "The officer eats the same meal as the non-commissioned soldier?" ”

The woman said: "There are only wounded soldiers here, no officers and soldiers. The meals were graded in several grades, and the more severe the injury, the better the food. ”

"That's fair." Zhen Wuchen couldn't help but comment.

Chang Shengjun is also very fair, and they are like brothers to each other, but only to the elite of Guo Yaoshi's lineage. Even if it was added later, as long as they entered the descendant army, they were all treated equally, because they knew that they had to be together, otherwise they would definitely be eaten in the northland, where the weak and the strong.

Of course, when making meritorious contributions and promotions, there must also be close relatives.

"Open your mouth!" The female Dao said expressionlessly.

Zhen Wuchen opened his mouth, took a spoonful of rice and meat foam tofu, and immediately stuffed it into his mouth.

Although the female Dao is still angry, her movements are extremely gentle.

Zhen Wuchen chewed and swallowed, and couldn't help but say: "You are really like my mother, when I was young, my mother also fed me like this." ”

The female Taoist finally lost her anger, and pursed her lips and smiled: "I was talking nonsense just now, and now I recognize my mother again?" ”

Zhen Wuchen said: "This dish is delicious, what's the name?" ”

"Mapo tofu, taught by the marshal himself," said the female Taoist, "your injuries are not too serious, and those dishes of the seriously wounded, with more meat foam than this, are more delicious." ”

Zhen Wuchen was surprised: "Marshal Lang Jun can still be a cook?" ”

The female Taoist said: "The minister also went to the field to farm in person. I heard that you are a new northerner, but you don't know about the south. The prime minister and the marshal are both good people, they are fighting for the common people, and the people over there are doing very well. Now that you have surrendered, you must fight well in the future, but you can no longer molest women and bully the common people. When the prime minister and the marshal win the world, everyone will be able to live a good life. You know? ”

"Yes." Zhen Wuchen subconsciously replied, whether it was sincere or not, he wanted to talk to this girl.

At the time of the meal, Zhen Wuchen felt that it was so fast, and in the blink of an eye, the kung fu woman left, and wiped his mouth with a burlap cloth before leaving.

Zhen Wuchen turned his head and asked the bed next door: "Can a woman in the army get married?" ”

The wounded soldier in the next bed laughed and said, "Have you taken a fancy to Nurse Li?" Then you have to care, Deputy Hao Tuan of the Second Brigade and Fourth Regiment, Wei Zhangshu of the Third Brigade and First Regiment, and ...... What's the other thing? Anyway, as far as I know, there are four officers who have taken a fancy to Nurse Li. There are rules in the army, you can't molest female doctors, and you are not allowed to force female doctors, and if you want to marry home, you have to look at your own ability. ”

"This Nurse Li is not stunning, why are so many officers rushing to ask for marriage?" Zhen Wuchen felt a lot of competitive pressure.

The wounded soldier in the next bed asked: "It's not beautiful, so why do you fall in love with it?" ”

Zhen Wuchen was stunned.
