Confinement is uncomfortable, wrong, very wrong.

Near the river in the camp, two rows of horse sheds were lined up, and the war horses were chewing the forage, raising their heads from time to time and snorting, looking enviously at the bluestone trough, on which a wooden board was set up, and a few kinds of wine and food were placed, and the five old and one young were sitting on both sides, and they were comfortably picking up vegetables and drinking.

Gao Yuan originally thought that the confinement was to squat in a small black house, but who knew that the guards would lead the stables.

"Old horseman, this kid is handed over to you, the old rule, don't leave the stable. The guard explained a few words to an old man in his fifties, and then lowered his voice and smiled at Gao Yuan: "Gao Yuan, it's good, the new first patrol will be the first to let Guan Guan be confined." Gao Yuan hurriedly saluted the old horse head: "Report, student Gao Yuan, seven days of confinement, report to you." The old horse's head with a rosacea nose waved his hand impatiently: "Go, help the cauldrine go, finish the work and eat, and you can't be hungry." ”

The guillotine needs two people, one person to hold the guillotine, one person to enter the grass, and Takagaki and the other old groom cooperate.

"I'm in the grass, you hold the knife, be careful, don't hurt Lao Tzu's hand. "Put the grass into bundles, roll your hands and put them on the knife groove opened by the pier, and the old groom teaches the essentials: "When I put the grass steadily, you press the knife again, the grass is more tough, and the knife must have strength, master the speed and then go down!"

The grass is not complicated, Gao Yuan listened to a few words to understand the essentials, the old horse head let him try a few handfuls, and the two of them got to work, and the grass was just in time for the opening of the meal, and Gao Yuan habitually walked to the stove room.

"Stop, you kid is confined, out of the stable, anxious to be beaten!" The old horse head stopped Gao Yuan, and he also wondered in his heart: this kid has been working on grass for a long time, and he doesn't even have a sweat star, he has a good strength, and he has not been locked up yet. With a good impression in his heart, the old horse head no longer gave a cold face: "Your food guards will send it over, let's rest." ”

The grooms went to eat, and Takagaki was idle and had nothing to do, so he simply picked up a shovel and a broom and cleaned the stables.

"Takagaki is doing a good job, hahaha. The guards didn't come, and the cook's big belly arrived at the stable before the sound, carrying a big box in his hand, and teasing him happily: "I didn't see you chopping wood in the afternoon, and I only knew when I asked, let Scar be locked up and confined, haha, it's good to be confined, come, everyone has made you some delicious food, put the box here after eating, and I'll change it next time." ”

The cook left, Gao Yuan opened the box, two large dishes, a big bowl of soup, four large steamed buns, and a bottle of wine, and he didn't even touch the mud seal. I have already had a friendship with the masters of the stove room, and Gao Yuan was not too moved, and there was still less than half of the meat on the plate after eating a full stomach.

"Grandma, boy, are you in confinement, or are you lying wounded. When the grooms came back from eating, they drooled as they looked at the dishes on the tray, and the old horse's eyes were red when he saw the bottle of wine, so he unceremoniously grabbed it and put it in his arms, and scolded in his mouth: "The camp is not allowed to drink, it is confiscated." Those dead fat men are your uncle, and this meal is more fucking hearty than the officers. ”

The grooms looked at the clean stable courtyard, and gossiped for a while, got up in the old horse's head, untied the horse's reins and hung on the horse's head, and a group of war horses were like obedient children, obediently walking out of the stable, accompanied by an old horseman.

"Go and help Lao Jiangtou walk the horse, and look long. The old horse head was afraid that Gao Yuan would not understand, so he said it more bluntly: "Is Scar always laughing at you, people and horses are one, his two strokes are not enough to pick up shoes for Lao Jiangtou." ”

Gao Yuan hurriedly caught up, a good thing, more powerful than the coach, the people and horses are one, and the cavalry team is about to fall into magic when they hear this word. Lao Jiangtou walked the horses really couldn't help, shouted a few words at will, those war horses seemed to be able to understand people's words, and walked along the river with the sound, Gao Yuan felt that he was redundant, and he was completely walking with Lao Jiangtou, no, the protagonist of the spread was a group of war horses, and he was just a dispensable follower.

"Hey, that's Gao Yuan, he's not in confinement, why did he run out?" Among the cheerful students by the river, someone saw Gao Yuan behind the war horse. A partner hurriedly pushed him, and said with a wink: "Don't be nosy, the guards pretend not to see it, and want you to talk more." ”

The war horses walked along the riverbank, and the students were inevitably surprised when they found out, but after that, everyone wisely chose to wait and see, only Chang Hai and Liu Xinjie ran over, Liu Xinjie said a few words of comfort, nothing more than to let Gao Yuan relax and take a break for seven days, but Chang Hai shouted that it was unfair, the assessment was the first, and the confinement was seven days, whether this was a reward or a punishment, and the coach took confinement too much as a joke, which should be included in Gao Yuan's five-year resume, which was a stain.

"He's fine, let Scar see you two running over, visit privately, hehe, don't hurry up and get out. Lao Jiangtou scolded with a smile and drove the two away, and his old face turned to Gao Yuan: "Gao Yuan, I heard that your strength ranks first, how can you be locked up, your partner looks very unconvinced by Guan You." ”

"That's it, it's just talking a few nonsense in tactical class, and it annoys the coach. "Gao Yuan didn't want to say more about that battle, and he didn't dare to say it, but Scar had explained, and that lesson was only allowed to be remembered in his heart, who dared to say that he would serve in military law.

"Give a first grade, and in the blink of an eye, you will be confined again, don't you kid resent?" Lao Jiangtou didn't seem to know anything. Gao Yuan replied indifferently: "Why are you resentful, he is a big official, it is normal for me to be locked up, and when I am older than him, I will be locked back." Lao Jiangtou laughed when he heard this, and after laughing, he looked at Gao Yuan for a long time and said, "This is not a grudge, hehe, lock it up, okay!"

The two walked their horses back, and the horsemen were busy and idle when they were adding grass and materials, and took the time to build a bed in the stable, and the bedding had already been sent by the guards, and Gao Yuan followed behind the old horse head to help, and went to bed in the middle of the night.

When I woke up from meditation, it was still early, the horn of getting up had not yet sounded, and the old grooms were already busy in the stables. Unexpectedly, he was still late to get up, so Takagaki was busy going over to help, carrying water and fodder for a while, but he was also very busy. I was busy observing the old grooms, and saw that they were not blindly working, but talking with the horses while working, as intimate as taking care of their own children.

"Don't deliberately please the horse, feed the horse, walk the horse, help it catch mosquitoes and locusts, talk to it when it's okay to relieve boredom, after a long time, it will naturally understand your character, you will also know its temper, if there is fate, you and it is not one with the horse. ”

The old horse head nodded Gao Yuan while working: "Just like Lao Jiangtou, he is the best horse trainer in Lingbo City, and he doesn't even take a horse whip when he trains a horse, let alone beat a horse, a must." ”

"Don't listen to the old horse's nonsense, boy, this horse is like a woman, you can use your wrist, but let her really think that you are good to her. Convince her, that's scared, not really good with you. A really good horse, even if the owner dies in battle, will not run away, just like a good woman. ”

Old grooms, you say a word to me, what two eyes are wider, the horse's vision is wide, run steadily, survive on the battlefield, what horse's belly belt is not too tight, to be able to stuff two fingers and so on, Gao Yuan seems to understand whether he understands or not, only in his heart.

Breakfast is still sent by the fat cook, it is still exquisite and rich, the old horse head deliberately waited, accompanied the fat cook to talk and laugh for a while, and Gao Yuan enjoyed it together, and told the fat man to have more wine. Unexpectedly, there were two more bottles of wine for lunch, and a few old horsemen chatted happily while eating, and by the way, they taught Gao Yuan some experience in communicating with horses, which benefited him a lot.

The five old and one young were happy, Gao Yuan seemed to have returned to the Remnant Courtyard, and there was no restraint at the end of the day, and the old groom rested when he was grassy, and he took out a short knife from the boots, and his subordinates called a neat one. Half an hour later, the cut grass was more neat than with a guillotine, and the old groom gave a thumbs up: "Boy, you were born to be a groom." Gao Yuan even rolled his eyes, I am a cavalryman, not a horseman, which made the old horseman laugh and scold: "Who here has never been a cavalryman, and the old horse head and the old river head have both been standard commanders." ”

No wonder he followed Lao Jiangtou to walk the horse, the guards didn't see it, the coach ignored it, these old men turned out to be officers who retired from the guard. There are a few examples of grandfathers, and Takagaki doesn't ask much, it seems that the old men are living very happily, isn't that okay.

After a few days, the ghost knows what it feels like, the groom in Gaoyuan is decent, and the fat cook with an old relationship helps him speak, and he really gets a benefit.

War horses are fixed to the riders, the second day after entering the camp, Coach Qiu let everyone choose by feeling, Gao Yuan picked a sturdy jujube red horse, it looks majestic, and it feels very good after a few months of training, no worse than the first few sentry commanders.

There is a small iron plate hanging under the neck of the horse, engraved with the names of the cavalry and the war horse, a few old men drank too much wine, found the horse card of Gao Yuan, and looked at the jujube red horse of the divine horse.

"Boy, how old are you?" The old horse head couldn't help but smile and asked, Gao Yuan honestly replied that he was almost sixteen, and the old Jiang head scolded with a smile: "It's not even sixteen years old, then you pick a war horse that will be retired in three or two years!"

Of course Gao Yuan is not stupid, seeing that several old men are interested, he tried to pretend to be aggrieved: "This is not too stupid, otherwise I wouldn't have come here to accompany you." The old horse head drank a lot and saw that Gao Yuan was pretending, so he smiled and didn't poke it, and the other old man was angry at the moment: ", even if you are stupid in confinement, most of the generals and colonels in the empire are stupid, and there is no spiritual person here." ”

"Old Biao Chief, find a good horse for this kid, I have stayed in the stable, ride an old horse out, hehe, people think you are old and confused. ”

Lao Jiangtou also drank high, and when he heard the sound, he rolled up his sleeves: "If you are looking for a beating, dare to scold Lao Tzu! ”

Engraved with the name of Gao Yuan, Lao Jiangtou hung the horse card on the neck of a black horse, the horse was black and oily without a single miscellaneous hair, not very tall, but the head of the horse was held high, the eyes were full of rebelliousness, the four long legs were strong and straight, and the few inches of fur on the horse's hooves were as white as snow.

"Dark clouds and snow, you still have half a year to serve, but they laugh at me for being confused, you go out with this kid and let them see how amazing the dark clouds and snow are. Hiccup, this kid is good to you, if you dare to beat and scold you, then you will fall to death. ”

The old horse led the horse, Gao Yuan followed behind, and the two walked out of the standard camp and walked towards the grassland. When he came back in the evening, Gao Yuan's skin and face were swollen, his riding clothes were full of mud and grass clippings, and he walked beside the dark clouds and snow with the reins, the horses were carefully groomed, and the people were embarrassed.

"Takagaki, get over here and fetch water!"

"Gao Yuan, sweep the stable again for Lao Tzu. ”

"Takagaki is dead, why don't you go and walk the horse quickly. ”

In the last two days of confinement, the stable sounded the roar of the old Jiangtou from time to time, and then I saw Gao Yuan's farts running along with the shouting, and the old horses were gloating and snickering behind them.

The seven-day confinement expired, and the cavalry team's actual combat training was about to begin, and Gao Yuan took away the dark clouds and snow. In the stable, Lao Jiangtou was yelling, and Coach Qiu was standing awkwardly and laughing.

"Get out, I knew you were uneasy and kind, I didn't expect that you were coming to Lao Tzu's dark clouds and stepping on the snow, confined for seven days, you are digging a good pit for Lao Tzu to jump by himself, my dark clouds are stepping on the snow, rolling!"
