Chapter 148: A New Beginning

The sun is shining high, and the sun makes people want to sleep. Where is the fastest update of novels? Please look for Aishang Novel Network biquge.info Qingzhou in July is already in autumn, but here in July, it is like a furnace, and it is frighteningly hot.

Where is this?

Who knows where this is, and do you care about this, anyway, this is definitely not the end, and the road ahead is still very far.

It wasn't until night had fallen that the troops settled down in a deserted village. Today is the seventeenth or eighteenth day after leaving Qingzhou.

Leaving Qingzhou, they went all the way to the west, the front team walked, the back team followed, no one cared about where they were going, anyway, just go. Even if anyone wanted to know where they were, they wouldn't know that they hadn't seen anyone alive since they had entered the area five days earlier.

"Malagobi, this hellish place, is it the legendary Maragobi? I don't know if there are grass and mud horses. Hu Wei twisted the sweat on his clothes and muttered.

This action of twisting clothes, Hu Wei can be said to be familiar with the road. Can he not be familiar, along the way, especially in the past few days, on average, he has to do such a thing once. This dead place is so hot, no wonder you can't see half a living person along the way, where is this where people live. Not to mention people, even ghosts can't survive here.

That one said, it's so troublesome, can't you wear it?

Why not, if you like to wear it or not, no one will care about you, you can run naked if you want. But only if you can stand the sun here. At a glance here, everywhere you look, there is not even a single tree, the high temperature of more than 40 degrees, and the sun that is so industrious that you don't want to rest for a minute, if you don't have the black skin of the black buddy, it is better to put on your clothes, otherwise even your yellow skin will have to be baked.

"Come, give you water. Hong saw Hu Wei wring out his clothes, came to Hu Wei's side, and handed him a bottle of water.

On such a hot day, red is not pleasant. You see, she's almost an Arab. Just a pair of big eyes are exposed, and they are covered with a scarf.

"Well, good. Hu Wei took the water, took a big sip unceremoniously, let the coolness go straight to the stomach, this feeling, well, has a fight with that iced black tea. It's just that before the water reaches the stomach, half of it turns into beads of sweat.

"You can drink a little more, I can't finish it anyway. Seeing Hu worriedly handing the water bottle back, Hong couldn't help but say.

Hu Wei smiled and said: "Such sweet water, I enjoy it very much in one bite." Take a sip too. ”

You think Hu Wei doesn't want to drink more, if he lets it go, let alone a pot, even if he takes another pot, Hu Wei can dry it up.

However, there is a lot of water, there is only one pot per person a day, and Hu is worried that his pot is long gone, and this pot is still popular. If you don't drink the red one, what should you do if the family is red? It will take several hours for the water wheel to bring the water.

"Hmm" The red light took a sip on the spout and put away the water. She said that she was worried and that she drank less herself.

Hu Wei put the wet clothes on his shoulders, looked at the redness, and said with a wicked smile: "Drink your water, help you do something." Give me the clothes and I'll twist them for you. ”

In this wilderness place, tens of thousands of soldiers are around, and girls can take off their clothes. Hong suddenly lost his anger and glanced at Hu Worried, and said angrily: "Such a big sun, it can't get rid of your bad thoughts." ”

Hu Wei said with a smile: "It's hot, and it's hot." ”

"My lord, are we starting to set up camp?" said Zhu Daneng when he came to Hu Wei's side and asked.

Hu Wei took the water from Hong's hand and handed it to Zhu Daneng. This guy is fat, and he is most afraid of heat, Hu Wei knows that his pot of water must be gone for a long time:

"Drink some water first, rest for a while, and then set up camp when the weather cools down later. The hanged also had to take a breath, and the soldier had been gone for a day. ”

Zhu Daneng was not polite, took a sip of the water, and said with a cold mouth: "Okay, then wait for the weather to be cooler, and then we will hurry up." ”

"Hmm. Hu Wei nodded and said: "The people who have told us should pay attention, this ghost place, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, don't catch a cold." If you already have a cold, remember to give them some things to march and camp, and don't let them do it. ”

Don't look at the hot daytime and cold at night. At this time, many soldiers in the army already had a cold. The Blizzard Legion was born in Qingzhou, and they are not afraid of how cold it is, but they really can't stand it.

"Okay, I got it. Thank you, sir. Zhu Daneng returned the kettle to Hu Wei. He also only took one sip and didn't drink it, holding it in his hand, purely for the sake of meaning.

Hu Wei and Zhu Daneng were talking, and suddenly a person's scream came from a distance:

"Oh, okay, I can finally get out of here. Hahaha, I'll leave immediately, I won't stay in this damn place for a minute. ”

Hu Wei glanced at it, shook his head, and a trace of pity flashed on his face: "Another crazy one." ”

"Hmm. Zhu Daneng nodded, without expressing any insight. This kind of thing will happen from time to time in the past few days, and it is already no wonder.

The extreme disappointment caused by the land cession, coupled with the poor geographical conditions here, many people's spirits are not in the same way, and some random stimulation will cause a psychological barrier in Yanzhòng.

It's not that there are no people who can leave here, but certainly not those civilians who have no power or power. Since the news that the empire ceded Qingzhou to An Rong was confirmed, some people had already begun to find a relationship and leave the Blizzard Legion. And this situation has been reached since the news that Valencia transferred the Qingzhou snowstorm to the westernmost part of the empire, Dongwangcheng, reached it. As long as there are people who have a little connection, they are trying to find a way to leave the Blizzard Legion.

The commander of the main corps, Sumendal, died of illness, and the deputy corps commander Crespo was captured alive by the Anrong people, and his whereabouts are still unknown until now, and even the Qingzhou where he is stationed has been ceded to others, and now the Blizzard Legion is a motherless child, and no one hurts.

At the beginning, those people still had some illusions about the Blizzard Legion, after all, the Blizzard Legion was still the broken ship of the five major legions of the empire, and there were three catties of nails, even if it was declining now, there was still some foundation. Leaving Qingzhou, there is still the possibility of a comeback.

But when the order to go to Dongwang City came down, people's hearts were completely cold, and everyone knew that Valencia was going to give up the Blizzard Army.

What is the place of Dongwang City, it is located in the westernmost part of the empire, although Qingzhou is cold, but there are some good resources such as snow spirit monkeys, what is there in Dongwang City, there are poor mountains and bad waters, and there are special people. There are so many robbers that they can't be caught, and the people are so poor that they can't even find a copper plate to scrape sand. There is no food to eat, no water to drink, and I heard that when a woman marries there, she doesn't have to go out for the rest of her life. Why don't you go out, the family is so poor that you don't even have a pair of pants, how can you go out.

In such a place, where are people staying, and everyone in the army who has something to do with it begs grandpa and grandmother to find ways to transfer out of the Blizzard Legion, and would rather be demoted than leave. It is okay to go to any other regiment, even to the local garrison, but if it really can't work, they will find a way to break away from the army, as long as they are not punished as deserters, and they would rather not be this soldier, but also leave.

That's it, the more than 100,000 soldiers of the Blizzard Legion are only more than 50,000 people now, and most of these people have no way to go, they can't do anything but be soldiers, they have no home to return to the army as their home, or they have offended the upper echelons of the empire, and they can't leave if they want to, speaking of which, they are all a group of poor people.

Hu Wei didn't go, it's not that he can't go, but he doesn't want to go, in fact, before Valencia's order arrived in Qingzhou, Hu Wei had already received news from Ximen Yufeng. Speaking of Ximen Yufeng, this sister is really good to Hu Wei. She not only sent news to Hu Wei in advance, but also paved all the roads for Hu Wei, as long as Hu Wei nodded, Ximen Yufeng could immediately transfer him to the Red Fen Legion, and even be promoted to the next level.

I don't know how many people dream of falling on their heads, but Hu Wei said 'no' to this arrangement. He did not accept Ximen Yufeng's arrangement, and still stayed in the Blizzard Legion, and was transferred with the army to defend Dongwangcheng.

Is Hu Wei stupid? There is a good life, but you have to live a hard life?

Of course Hu Wei is not stupid, if Hu Wei is stupid, then there are not many smart people in this world.

Now everyone looks down on these 50,000 remnants of the army, thinking that the Blizzard Legion is about to end the game. But Hu Wei regarded these soldiers who could not leave as treasures. Although these 50,000 remnants have experienced countless defeats and have hardly won a decent victory in the entire Qingzhou War, they are veterans who have really experienced the war.

On the battlefield, it is not difficult to kill the enemy, and it is not difficult to get the enemy to kill, but the difficult thing is how to kill the enemy while surviving yourself.

It is far more difficult to survive a defeat than to survive a victory, and among these 50,000 soldiers, except for the thousands of recruits who have only experienced one breakthrough battle, which one has not experienced many battles without dying. Everyone knows that a thousand troops are easy to get and one general is hard to find, but not many people know another sentence - there are famous generals, but also good soldiers.

What kind of soldier is considered a good soldier. Those soldiers who have never seen the battlefield are limited in their goodness. Some soldiers, before they went to battle, screamed so loudly. What Lao Tzu fights for is a life, and after eighteen years, he is a good man. said it as if his old brother was the first in the world.

But when they really want to go to the battlefield, they haven't seen anything yet, and there are people who pee their pants. Do you think that fighting a war is a fun thing, a romance of heroism?

No, absolutely not. Fighting a war is a nice, glorified saying. The essence of war is that there are two kinds, one is to kill and the other is to be killed. On the battlefield, there is always flesh and blood, especially in this era of cold weapons, the wails of those who are about to die can make your heart burst open.

Only soldiers who have truly experienced the battlefield and not died can be called good soldiers. Soldiers who have not experienced the baptism of the battlefield still have a long way to go.

Now that there are such soldiers in front of Hu Wei's eyes, and as soon as he releases 50,000, how can Hu Wei, who has always wanted to have a unit of his own, still be able to walk.

In the eyes of many people, Dongwang City is regarded as hell, but in the eyes of Hu Wei, this is a God-given opportunity, this is the best opportunity God has given him.

What's wrong with the westernmost part of the empire, what's wrong with the bitter and poor, the more robbers. The westernmost part of the empire means that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and when you get there, it will be difficult for the orders of the imperial capital to be effectively implemented, and no one will be able to control it.

Poverty is not a problem, as long as you find a way, life will gradually get better. The children of the poor are in charge early, how can they produce talents without hardship, and they can raise good soldiers with big fish and meat every day?

Isn't it said that the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they must be tempted to forbear.

This last sentence is the most powerful, the heart must be moved, the sex must be endured, there is a way that the woodcutter who chops wood has to endure, endure that there is no tiger and wolf howling in the mountains, he has to endure the fisherman who fishes, endure the calm wind and waves to copy the fish and shrimp, the farmer ploughs the field, he has to endure the abundant harvest of grains, and there are good fields and seedlings everywhere; you have to endure the students who are studying, and they have to endure it as a leap of thousands of feet high. The golden scale is not a thing in the pool, it has to endure until the wind and clouds and then turn into a dragon, right?

What Hu Wei has to do now is to endure, as long as he waits for the opportunity, he will get 50,000 soldiers, is it not better than the fisherman and the farmer? It's okay to fight robbers, train soldiers, get wealth, and reassure the people, killing three birds with one stone

Don't you want such a good opportunity? Fools don't want it. If it weren't for Valencia's dizziness this time, you would have searched the entire Big 6, and you wouldn't have encountered such a good thing. This is a good character, and God is attached to it.

Hu Wei doesn't go, and of course Red doesn't go. Red's father, Red Fangzheng, helped Red find a way to go to the Household Cavalry Regiment, if you don't want to go, you can also retire, what you want, it's all up to Hong.

But red is a mind to follow Hu Wu, she doesn't want to let go of those good lives, and follows Hu Wei to this place where birds don't, and she is like an Arab girl. People say that they are full of water, but in this bird place, they can't even drink enough water

Zhu Daneng didn't leave, there was an element of intention, but not all. He followed Hu Wei's side partly because of the family's decision.

According to the analysis of what Hu Wei did before, they believe that people like Hu Wu will never disappear like a meteor with only a flash of light. Someone like him, no matter where he is placed, should be worth paying attention to. So even if it is a place like Dongwang City, they are willing to send Zhu Daneng over, and they want to see up close what Hu Wei can do.

If it weren't for the family's consent, it would be impossible for Zhu Daneng to follow Hu Wei no matter how much he wanted to come with him. It is impossible for Zhu Daneng's family to let the main figures of the next generation go to Dongwang City to retire. Therefore, many things cannot be overwhelmed by a single 'righteous qi', reality is always realistic, and everyone needs to consider it in many ways.

The aftermath of the sun finally could not withstand the heaviness of the earth, a gust of night wind blew, the air became cold in a blink of an eye, and the independent regiments that had been given a certain rest began to set up tents for the night.

The ten new regiments that Sumadar finally set up, because they have not yet had time to report to the formation in a hurry, are not regular imperial soldiers, and they are relatively free. Of the ten corps, only the independent regiment followed Hu Wei and went on the road together. The other nine new regiments have all been disbanded. Of the nine recruits who were disbanded, some chose to join the Independent Regiment of Recruits, while many more left the current Blizzard Legion and went their separate ways.

Hu Wei was also busy at this time, commanding the soldiers of the independent regiment, relying on the geographical advantages to set up tent camps. This is his habit, different from the habits of other generals in the army, more often than not, he always likes to be with soldiers.

Red followed Hu Wei's side as always, becoming a beautiful landscape in the army. The soldiers were also accustomed to the appearance of Hong following Hu Wei's side, and sometimes when they were tired from work, they peeked at this female military division, and then felt that they had strength again. Soldiers with good character sometimes get water from the female military division herself, and that is when they are most happy.

"It's all a little quicker, the drainage ditch must be repaired, you can't be lazy, and the consequence of being lazy is often that you have to sleep in the water at night. You don't want to wake up and float on the tent," Hu Yu's voice came out in the middle of the soldiers, causing the soldiers to laugh.

"My lord, will it rain tonight?" asked one of the soldiers with a shout. At first, he didn't dare to do this, before joining the army, he heard that the officers in the army were very fierce, and they had to punish the soldiers at every turn. It wasn't until he joined the Independent Regiment that he showed up, and those people were not right. Lord Hu Wei also punished the soldiers, but he only punished those who did not obey orders and did not complete the task, and he did not punish them indiscriminately.

It's like now, when it's not at war, you can joke with him casually, and he's never angry.

Hu Wei looked up at the soldier who spoke up, and laughed: "It's Maori, hehe, you stand up, don't fall down." Do you like it to rain or not? ”

Hu Wei's memory is not very good, but he can remember the name of every soldier in the Independent Regiment. It was hard work, and it was not so easy to memorize the names and likenesses of five thousand soldiers.

Maori was not surprised that Hu Wei could call out his name, because he knew that in the eyes of other commanders, he might be a nameless soldier, but in Hu Wei's eyes, every soldier was a person with a name and a surname. They are not numbers, but real ones.

"Lord Hu Wei, I hope it will rain tonight, and the water in my kettle is gone. Maori smiled and replied, "You"

Hu Youyi waved his hand and smiled: "Don't want to ask me, I still drink the water of our beautiful military master."

When the soldiers heard this, they all looked at the red, and then laughed. After walking for a day against the sun, they don't seem to be tired at this moment.
