The Beginning Chapter 60 The End
Before I knew it, two months had passed, and the impression of the day I joined the army seemed to be yesterday. Everyone changed, the faces became resolute, and the characters began to fall silent
Like those veterans, childish things that don't make sense are no longer done.
Tomorrow is the time for the army to leave for the front, and everyone's iron armor has been issued.
It's beautiful and it's cold.
There were also scratches on some of the armor, as well as puncture holes, and blood stains that had clearly been washed but not cleaned.
Troubled times can't manage so much.
These are the iron armor of the front-line battle dead.
For their own selfish desires, the dynasty wants to care about the lives of the people in vain, and these people don't know about this kind of thing, otherwise they don't know what will happen.
Qian Xiao also has a set of iron armor, which is specially made by Wu Jue, and for this iron armor, Yi Fei also quarreled with Wu Jue......
Yi Fei smiled and said it was okay.
Tonight is the full moon, the world is silvery white, and the stars hang in the sky, shimmering with brilliance, even more beautiful than two months ago.
There was no training today, and everyone has been wearing it in the afternoon after taking the iron armor in the morning, until now.
No one went back to sleep!
Why?
Because Wu Jue held a trembling banquet in the largest Jiazi battlefield.
More than 30 large iron pots are scattered on the sand field, with rapid firewood burning below, and dozens of catties of beef and mutton are boiling in the boiling soup pot, and the rich meat fragrance is permeated.
More than 300 recruits formed around the fire in small formations, and the crimson flames reflected on the hesitant faces......
The atmosphere is not good, even if there is meat to eat, even if most people don't eat this meat for a year......
Because TMD is still eating that hard-to-swallow nest head in the morning.
To put it bluntly, this is the practice feast, which is contributed by the villagers of Shuikou Town.
After eating this meat, it means that you are isolated from here and go to the cruel battlefield, who can be in a good mood?
What can they say!
No, nothing can be done but silence. If only there was alcohol at this point, most of them would probably be drunk.
But there is a rule in the barracks that you can't drink, which is a pity.
Wu Jue stood at the top, and he had been standing for a whole hour since he brought people here. It doesn't matter, every day he's standing anyway.
The important thing is that at this hour, Wu Jue didn't say a word.
It's obviously such a scene!
It's such a time!
At first, the recruits still looked up at him from time to time, and in the past two months, Wu Jue had established absolute majesty in their hearts.
But halfway through the time, they didn't say anything, and everyone ignored them.
The pupils reflected the three hundred recruits on the battlefield, Wu Jue was silent, if nothing else, these people would be his soldiers in the future.
He's going to take them out, but ...... I don't know how much I can bring back.
Wu Jue has fought battles, there are quite a few, and he is also very brave, but he has never led soldiers, and it is not in the form of a squad, but a real army.
It's like these three hundred.
In the past, he was alone and had no scruples, and he didn't leave a piece of armor for the enemies he killed, but now he can't, now he is responsible for more than 300 people, and he is responsible for all the people in Shuikou Town.
It's that he's just a "corporal".
Here at the fire, Yi Fei was wearing an iron armor that was obviously a little ill-fitting for him, holding a thirty-centimeter military dagger, turning the pieces of meat in the pot.
No one spoke, as if dead, some were expressionless, some were silent, some were indifferent...... It's just that no one is happy.
Humble is expressionless!
Compared with others, he has one more advantage, which is not an advantage - he has no concern, and the purpose is to go to the battlefield.
So except for being a little dazed, there is no sadness.
Yi Fei cut a piece of meat with a knife, looked at it, and said, "It's ready to eat." β
After speaking, he first picked out a fist-sized piece of beef and handed it to Li Kui on the side with the large leaf that had already been prepared beside him.
"Brother Kui, take it, be happy, don't show that sad look, this doesn't match you. β
Li Kui took it with both hands and smiled reluctantly. He can't do it like usual, no matter how bad he bragged, he was still an ordinary person.
He has a wife and a child who is about to become an adult.
The business of the martial arts hall was not good, he left again, and he could only close the door in the future.
What about wives and children?
Yi Fei shook his head and didn't say anything, most of the people on the battlefield were people like Li Kui.
Can you help them?
No.
Then don't say anything!
Yi Fei divided the meat one by one, and when he was assigned to Qian Xiao, Qian Xiao took it and asked by the way: "Brother Yi, have you ever been on the battlefield?"
Qian Xiao lowered his head and took a bite of the meat, it was not delicious, it was not unpalatable, only the most basic salt taste, but it was also a thousand times better than Wowotou.
Yi Fei glanced at him and said, "No." β
"Oh!"
Qian Xiao didn't know all the words, and asked again: "Then Brother Yi, have you ever killed someone?"
didn't look back, just like the usual greetings, humbly and attentively ate meat, but everyone else looked over.
Yi Fei was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "I've killed, and there are quite a few." β
This time it was Qian Xiao's surprise, but he didn't say anything more, just a symbolic "oh!" sound.
"You, you. β
Yi Fei didn't know what he thought, and smiled impatiently. Then he stopped caring about anything else and concentrated on the meat in front of him.
Qian Xiao tilted his head to look at himβhe didn't ask this question for no reason.
It's time to go to the battlefield, and as a captain, you must let the people under you know something.
If Yi Fei replied that he had been on the battlefield, then everyone would be relieved, after all, there was a senior with him.
It's a pity that Yifei didn't answer.
And then there's the question of the rest of the story.
If Yi Fei replied that he had never killed anyone, then everyone would probably take care of Yi Fei out of companionship on the battlefield.
Killing people requires determination at the beginning, and the first time you see blood, it is possible for some people to directly collapse on the ground.
Not to mention anything else, at least eight of the ten people in this team have blood on their hands and have had their lives.
Needless to say, karma has become a mountain.
Human life in this world is like a mustard.
It's not just five words, it's about countless lives, and no one says it's qualified to pick it up.
Even children don't care much about the death of one or two people, let alone these men.
If Yi Fei said that he had killed someone, it would be even better, with Yi Fei's unfathomable strength, it can not only bring peace of mind on the battlefield, but also deter those who are still careful in their hearts......
It's just that Qian Xiao didn't expect Yi Fei's answer to be "Killed, there are still a lot!", which seemed to be a little in line with him.
But at that time, Yi Fei hadn't reacted, and what he said should be true.
As for how much is this "lot"......
Because no one wants to know.
After another hour, the meat was finished, a pot of more than 30 catties of meat, ten people ate, each of them ate an average of three catties, and they all ate enough.
Wu Jue on the high platform looked at everyone, and finally moved, he took a step forward, and his voice spread throughout the battlefield:
"Have you eaten well? I'll go back to bed and get up early tomorrow morning. β
Everyone looked over, but they only saw the back of Wu Jue turning around, and he disappeared at the gate with a long knife.
The sparse figure stood up and headed back towards the wooden house, and the huge sand field finally gained a little popularity.
"Let's go, we'll go back. β
Yi Fei patted the sand on his leg and stood up.
Everyone got up and went back to the house in silence.
Qian Xiao looked up at the sky, perhaps because of the smoke, the moonlight disappeared, and the stars disappeared.
The night is thicker, and the thick can't be dissolved.
The differential blows, with the smell of rain.
Not surprisingly, there should be a heavy rain tonight.
I just hope to stop sooner and march tomorrow morning......
Everyone went back to the hut, and no one bathed or took off their iron armor, so they leaned on or lay on their beds for the night.
Qian Xiao didn't meditate, let the exhaustion erode him, and the white fish was still functioning, and he couldn't smell a little stench.
It's been three weeks since the last time I went to bed?
Nothing was said all night.
Sure enough, there was a heavy rain in the evening, and the sound of the rain filled the heavens and the earth, and the people in their sleep felt cold.
The next morning, however, it was a sunny day, and the rain did not last long.
When I came out to see it, the whole world was as if it had been washed, the raindrops hung on the blades of grass, reflecting the crystal, the birds flew to the mountains and fingers, shaking and wetting their feathers, and the cold carried the tenderness of the sun......
No one supervised, and more than 300 people had gathered on the battlefield.
Last night's iron pot and firewood had already been cleaned, and only a little white ash was left on the ground, proving that it had been burned last night.
Wu Jue hadn't come yet, but a hundred and ten veterans had gathered above the high platform. They also stood in a standard military posture, looking at the recruits with indifferent and focused expressions.
They came to say goodbye, just as they had been to the battlefield before. They come from Tiannan and Haibei, and their long-forgotten hometown, Shuikou Town, has become their second home.
The comrades who once set off together no longer know each other, but they are all the same, brothers.
Since you can't go to the battlefield anymore, why not send these newcomers?

The ten-meter-high, five-meter-wide gate of the first field was opened, and Wu Jue rode in from the outside on a tall black horse.
Walked in front of everyone and glanced over everyone's faces, his eyes fierce and domineering.
This time, no one dodged anymore, and in two months, Wu Jue left enough majesty in their hearts, but also forged tenacious determination.
Wu Jue didn't say any impassioned words or a great future, he just raised the long knife in his hand, pointed at the sky, and said a word:
"Let's go. β
"Yes. β
Everyone replied, four teams in a row, with a veteran in the lead, and walked out of the gate.
There are not many people, but the momentum is not lost at all.
Outside, more than 100 peasants followed, pulling carts and horses, walking with the army, transporting the supplies on the carts to the front line.
The army walked in an orderly manner, and Wu Jue opened the way at the front and soon walked out of the city gate.
A noisy voice came, and when everyone saw what was going on, their faces changed.
Some people lowered their heads and wept silently, while others were silent, but their teeth trembled......
Thousands of people from Shuikou Town gathered at the gate of the city to see off these soldiers, including their brothers, friends, wives and children, parents, and perhaps this was the last side.
Wu Jue watched, and the speed of the march couldn't help but slow down.
Qian Xiao mixed in the army and looked at the old man and Xu Hui. They were looking for him, looking around, and they found him.
Xu Hui waved goodbye to him with a sad look, and the old man looked at him with complicated eyes......
