Chapter 241: Subjugating Captain Sun (2)
As soldiers, the conditions in Sinan County are so good, while they in Changshou... have nothing. The food alone is a far cry from that...
Who would feel comfortable after seeing this?
Captain Sun glanced back at his soldiers. They all looked dejected, pale and with depressed eyes. He didn't know whether they were envious or sad.
He sighed.
what else can we do?
At this moment, a dozen wild boars suddenly appeared on the flat road, with fangs bared and ferocious looks, and knocked several people away in an instant.
Behind the wild boar were several cooks, who were walking briskly and shouting anxiously.
"Brothers in front, please help! Please help! There is a farm outside, and we are afraid of bumping into the people!"
For a moment, there was no time for everyone to visit the military camp, and they all formed their battle formations, trying to block the wild boar's way.
Captain Sun glared fiercely and immediately began to give orders loudly.
"You guys go seal the exit, and these guys follow me to catch the pigs. Ten people catch one. Quick!"
The moment Shu Jian saw the wild boar wreaking havoc, he picked up Xie Ling and brought her to a safe place.
Xie Ling held his forehead in his hand and remained speechless.
She has also studied martial arts for a long time...
However, there were so many people and it was such a mess that Xie Ling was too lazy to get involved.
It was just right that I could see the results of my sword-fighting training from the beam.
Shu Jian is a secret guard. The soldiers he taught are good in martial arts, and their figures cannot be seen clearly as they fly around. However, they are used to fighting alone. One runs this way, and the other runs that way. There is no organization and it is very chaotic.
On the contrary, soldiers who are on guard are much better in this regard.
Captain Sun was a veteran after all. With a serious face and full of momentum, he commanded his men with great vigor and ease.
Under his command, Chang Shou's soldiers circled the wild boars with great efficiency and quickly captured seven or eight wild boars.
As for Sinan, they all rushed forward and surrounded a wild boar to catch it.
Or you could just let the wild boar run past you and not have time to catch up.
Fortunately, Shujian’s martial arts skills are superb, otherwise the wild boar would have really escaped.
A quarter of an hour later, all the wild boars were controlled.
Shu Jian praised generously, "Captain Sun is really good at training soldiers. This time, it's all thanks to you."
There was some grudge between the two of them. Captain Sun was an old arrogant man. He snorted, turned his head to the side, and said in a muffled voice: "You are too flattering. The young general's martial arts are unparalleled and cannot be matched by ordinary people."
"Haha." Shu Jian put his hand directly on Captain Sun's shoulder, "Admit it, my martial arts is better than yours."
Captain Sun looked a little unnatural, but at least he didn't slap his hand away.
The leaders of both sides were arm in arm with each other, and the soldiers below naturally started to chat in twos and threes, no longer as reserved as before.
They were all men in their twenties and had no deep hatred, so soon, people from both sides started fighting.
The soldiers who were always on guard beat their chests and stamped their feet.
"Why do you have such good conditions? You have a canteen and a public toilet. You know, every time I pass by you eating, my mouth waters for three miles."
"That's because we have a good chief clerk and a good county magistrate."
"Master Clerk? Who is your Master Clerk? I want to pay my respects to him!"
Sinan's soldier pointed at Xie Ling standing aside.
"That's her, our Master."
The people who often guarded the military settlement all had their eyes wide open, and their mouths were big enough to fit an egg.
Such a delicate and petite girl is actually the chief clerk of Sinan County?
However, you can't judge a person by his appearance. Some people don't dare to speak out loud even if they have some ideas in their mind. They are just shocked and confused.
Another soldier asked.
"How did your Sinan County suddenly become so rich? It must have cost a lot of money to repair the barracks and increase the food supply, right?"
Whenever asked this question, Sinan's soldiers would just laugh it off and change the subject.
They still know what can be said and what cannot be said.
The soldiers under Shu Jian, besides their good martial arts, have the greatest advantage of being tight-lipped.
A group of people drove the wild boar towards the pigsty.
The cooks felt very guilty and blamed themselves all the way.
There were many people eating today, and all the cooks were busy cooking. No one paid attention to the pigpen, and all the wild boars ran out in a moment of carelessness.
See the pig feed in the pigsty.
The soldiers who had been guarding the military garrison were no longer calm.
It’s fine if humans eat better than them, but how come pigs also eat better than them! ?
There was still a lot of unfinished coarse grain porridge left in the pig trough, which was thicker than the porridge they ate!
On weekdays, they either eat steamed corn bread that is as hard as a rock, or white porridge that is as thin as it can be.
At this moment, all of Chang Shou's soldiers fell silent.
Including Captain Sun.
He stared at the pig trough in a daze.
It was the cook's voice that brought him back to his senses.
"Brothers, come and help us slaughter the pigs! We will eat these disobedient pigs tonight!"
The frozen hearts of the soldiers gradually revived.
No matter what, we can eat meat today!
Xie Ling saw all the expressions on Captain Sun's face.
-
That night, the moon was high in the sky, the moonlight was as bright as snow, and the sky and the earth were clear.
The square in the center of the Sinan military camp was full of people. No matter they were from Sinan or Changshou, they were all eating skewers and drinking wine, looking very relaxed and happy.
Captain Sun gulped down a glass of wine, his eyes full of disappointment.
He hadn't seen a military camp with such a good atmosphere for a long time.
The brothers are like family, drinking and bragging under the moonlight. This is how friendship on the battlefield should be!
Wu Daqiang sat next to Captain Sun and clinked glasses with him. "Brother, how many years have you been with Wang Shouyi?"
Captain Sun's eyes flashed with vigilance, "Fifteen years."
After asking this, Wu Daqiang didn't ask any other questions.
He only said sadly: "Fifteen years, this is the best youth of a soldier."
Captain Sun put the wine glass in his hand aside.
"what do you want to say in the end?"
Wu Daqiang's eyes were sharp, "Brother, have you ever thought about looking for another master?"
Captain Sun's heart was beating like a drum, his eyes widened, "What are you talking about? Aren't we all working for the court?"
Wu Daqiang smiled, "Working for the court also depends on who is above you."
Captain Sun understood now, narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Loyalty is the most important thing a soldier cannot give up. I'm sorry I can't drink with General Wu today."
After saying this, he left quickly.
Wu Daqiang raised his eyebrows and walked behind the big tree.
As soon as she walked over, she ran into Gu Wei, who was dressed in black. He was holding Xie Ling's waist and talking about something. Xie Ling's small body was completely hidden, with only half of her hairpin with tassels showing.
Wu Daqiang quickly closed his eyes, wondering what sin he had committed.
"Uncle Wu, how is it?"
Wu Daqiang closed his eyes and repeated the conversation he had just had with Sun Yuanhuan.
Xie Ling nodded, "Very good, it's safer to use it if someone who doesn't betray his master uses it. I'll give him some shocking information in a few days, so that he can see Wang Shouyi's ugly face clearly... By the way, Uncle Wu, why are you closing your eyes?"
Wu Daqiang didn't answer. He turned around and ran away quickly, fearing that he would get in the way of others.
Gu Wei waited until Wu Daqiang walked away, then bent down, picked up Xie Ling, leaned close to her ear, and spoke in a gentle tone.
"My lady, now that everything is done, should we go home?"
Xie Ling nodded, then tugged at Gu Wei's wide sleeves.
"Where are you going? The carriage is over there."
Gu Wei chuckled, "It's not far, I'll carry you home. I'm usually busy and can't carry you, but I'll hold you now."
Xie Ling didn't act pretentious. She found a comfortable position to lie down and let him do whatever he wanted.
"Then you have to hold me firmly. If you shake me, don't even think about holding me again in the future."
Gu Wei laughed pleasantly.
"I obey your orders."
Xie Ling looked at the round moon and discussed with Gu Wei, "I don't know when my mother and uncle will arrive. Once Paradise City is built, I will go to Wei Zhao State. In order to avoid breaking the promise, you can help me take care of them when the time comes."
