Chapter 40: Reli
The breakfast was not the same in each battalion, and most of them were just people sitting together and eating their own grains. The stove in front of him was also on fire, and hot soup was boiling in the ding, which was nothing more than water from the nearest ditch. The fire and the soup are not so much for cooking, but for bringing warmth and comfort to everyone in the early winter morning. There are only a few stoves, and the soup is tumbling out of beans and vegetables from time to time, so that a sweet aroma fills the air. What's more, plums, dates and salt are added to the soup, which is sweet and sour and delicious, constantly arousing people's appetite. Many people who can't eat this bite are intricately intertwined with envy and satisfaction on their faces.
Xin Lingjun deliberately did not drive, and surrounded by a group of doormen, he walked along the avenue in front of the camp to the farthest camp. During breakfast, there was no one on the road, so the presence of this group of people was particularly eye-catching. Many people recognized that the person in the lead was the Wei Gongzi Xinlingjun who was waiting by the ditch last night and later patrolled the camp by car. After noticing this, people exchanged glances with each other and expressed mixed feelings.
To Xinlingjun's surprise, the farthest away from the city, the one who was likely to be the first to meet the enemy was actually the Gongying. The soldiers of the small city were obviously unplaced, so they set up a small camp next to the work camp, and there were no vehicles around to protect them, only a few dead branches were hastily inserted as camp fences. There was no sentry outside the camp gate. There were only about 100 people in the camp, neither digging stoves nor setting up tripods, but only a few fires were lit in the center of the camp, and groups of twenty or thirty people sat around the fire, some were eating grain, and some were staring at something in the distance or near with empty eyes.
Xin Lingjun glanced at Zhong Yue, Zhong Yue understood, gave a signal, signaled the guests to secretly prepare for the guards, and then held the axe and followed Xin Lingjun into the small camp of the soldiers.
The city lord obviously didn't realize that someone would break into the camp, and he turned his back to the gate of the camp where Xinlingjun was and subconsciously roasted the fire, until a soldier at a loss next to him hinted that someone had broken into the camp. He hurriedly stood up, recognized Xinlingjun and Zhong Yue following behind at a glance, so he called out "queue", and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Xiaoyi descended to Guan Chong to meet the general!" ”
Zhong Yue stepped forward and saluted: "The city lord has worked hard! General Lao Jun! ”
Xinlingjun said: "Continue eating." The enemy army will not be able to come today, and everyone can eat in peace. Everyone sat around the fire again, but their attention had all turned to Shinling-kun.
Xinlingjun also sat on the ground casually, beckoned the city lord to sit down as well, and said to the city lord gently: "The city lord's clan? ”
The city lord said: "I don't dare to ask General Lao, my ancestor is in charge of the people in the city, so I take the management as my clan." ”
Xinling Jun said: "From generation to generation, the clan is prosperous!" ”
The city lord said: "The city is not the same clan, and the eight stops are the outer clan." It's just that the natives of the family are here, and everyone lifts them up and calls them the lord of the city. But the New Year's festival is the main priest! ”
Xinlingjun asked, "How many sons do you have?" ”
The city lord said: "I don't dare! The season is very bad, and he has been ambushed! The remaining three sons are all in the camp, but the general's order! Then he turned back and summoned the three men. The three of them all saluted and stood behind the city lord.
Xinling Jun said: "I have a plan, may the city lord help him!" ”
The city lord said: "Only listen to the general!" ”
Xinlingjun said: "Our army has just arrived, and the route is unknown. The city lord's family is here, and the surrounding land is bound to be clear. I intend to ask the three gentlemen to bring ten people each, thinking that we are the guides of our army, I don't know what the city idea is! ”
The city lord's face turned pale suddenly, but he immediately turned back to his three sons and said, "Each of you chooses a geography to be familiar with ten people to listen to the tune!" ”
The three of them left with thirty men. Xin Lingjun said to Zhong Yue: "Two will be sent to Dr. Jin, and one will be sent to Mr. Cao and Mr. Jin in Xiaocheng." It is deployed everywhere and can be used for guidance and consultation. Then he turned to the city lord: "The city lord of Lao will choose ten more people to follow me, so as to prepare for the announcement of orders everywhere." Here, the lord of the city can choose one person to rule the remnant. ”
The city lord said: "How dare we! But the old man is difficult to support, and I am afraid that the general will be mistaken! ”
Xinling Jun said: "The father of heaven is the three elders, and the situation is for us. Just about to make a plan for the city lord! ”
The city lord said: "The general is too famous, how can I be, but the liver and brain are smeared to repay the ear!" The city lord left to choose people, and his three sons also led ten people each with complicated expressions to follow the doormen assigned by Zhong Yue in different directions.
Soon, the city lord came with ten people, followed by one person: "Guan Mou was assigned to listen to the errand, and the camp was handed over to the foolish brother Guan Tu to lead!" ”
The tube coat looks much younger than the tube punch. He saluted to Xinling Jun and said: "If there is something to do, the disciple will obey his work, if the general is sent, Tu Wan will not give up, I hope that the whole brother will be old and old!" ”
Xinling Jun said: "I don't know what to consult Brother You, but I hope that the gentleman will work behalf of his brother, and he will be very fortunate to be brave!" ”
When Xin Lingjun said this, he was speechless, so he had to say: "Dare not obey your fate!" ”
Zhong Yue suddenly said, "Dare to ask the city lord, who was the envoy last night?" ”
The city lord said: "This person is Cai, and he has become a Yan person." ”
Zhong Yue said: "If you are in the city, I would like to see it as the lord of the city." ”
The city lord was surprised: "Last night, I returned to the city alone, and Mr. Cai stayed in the army, and I haven't seen him yet!" How is it......? ”
Zhong Yue said: "It turns out that Mr.'s surname is Cai, and Yan is ...... If you are not in the city, then you will not work the city lord! ”
The city lord was confused, and it was not easy to ask too much, so he had to wonder in his heart.
Xinlingjun said to Guan Tu: "Once the city has fallen, it is the people of the Great Wei, and the reward and punishment are natural." A gentleman can sue everyone, but those who have made meritorious contributions to the enemy will be rewarded by me, and there is no difference! The old and weak women and children in the city were still as quiet as ever, and there was no invasion. ”
Guan Tu saluted and said, "General Xie!" ”
Xin Lingjun gave a few more words of encouragement, and said: "We will go to the left near the camp to inspect, the gentleman treats the people well, makes meritorious contributions, and lives up to his husband's trip." ”
Guan Tu sent Xinlingjun and his entourage to the gate of the camp to return, and Xinlingjun walked to the nearest camp.
The order of the workshop was slightly better than before, and although there was only one pawn, the craftsmen were still in a row, raising fires and eating. When Uncle Shu saw Xin Lingjun enter the camp gate, he hurriedly got up to greet him.
Xinling Jun said: "The enemy army is coming, why are you in the front?" ”
The pawn chief was stunned: "The camp is here, and there is an order to camp on the spot, so the camp is here." ”
Xinling Jun said: "Immediately pull out the camp and go east until you camp outside the small city." Mr. Zhongyue, what should I do? ”
Zhong Yue said: "There are many small rivers outside the small city, which hinder the march. Then they will build a bridge over the river outside the city, and make sure that the military road is unblocked. The lord of the city asked that one of them should be sent back to the city with him to give a decree, and that whatever was necessary for the construction of the bridge should be requisitioned in the city. Then another doorman was arranged to stay behind and return to the city. The city lord had to arrange for an entourage to stay.
Uncle Shu knew in his heart that Xinling Jun was letting them escape death, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately ordered the camp to be pulled. Xin Lingjun led the guests to the next camp.
