In an ordinary tent in the army camp, several Yaozhou soldiers had just returned to the tent to rest.
Today, they and Dengzhou soldiers were arranged to dig trenches.
They didn't rest for a whole afternoon, and they didn't enter the camp for dinner until all the trenches were dug.
While they were eating, the other soldiers had already finished their meals and gone to rest.
"Damn it, why are we, the soldiers from Zhenzhou and Dengzhou, allowed to dig trenches, while the others only do simple things?"
As soon as they entered the tent, a big man with a full beard complained.
"Keep your voice down, you don't know the walls have ears.
Do you want to kill everyone?"
An older man glared at this man and said in a rough voice.
The bearded man was obviously a little afraid of this person, and immediately lowered his voice and said, "I just feel it's unfair.
We are both soldiers.
Look at what Chen Zhoubing and Tangzhou soldiers did."
Damn, you’re not doing anything, just being on guard and sentry.
Do you need 10,000 or 20,000 people to be on guard and sentry?
Why don't you bully us now that we are no longer in prison?
These gouniángyǎngde" the bearded man said in a low voice.
There were a total of ten people living in the big tent, and the other nine people all fell silent after hearing what the bearded man said, including the older man just now.
"Alas, so what if it's true as you said?
We are soldiers from different territories.
Although we are together now, we will return to our respective bases after the war.
And our governor was captured again, so it is normal for them to despise us.
I think if the positions were reversed, Ma Dujian would do the same thing."
The other person sighed and said with a slightly helpless tone. "" The tent fell silent once again.
After a while, a soldier who looked slightly younger asked, "Do you think we can defeat the Liangshan bandits?
You know that before us, the imperial court sent large armies several times to conquer but all ended in failure."
After the young soldier finished speaking, he looked at the older man sitting at the door with some fear.
It seemed that this man should have the highest status among the ten people.
After listening to the young soldier's words, silence began again.
It’s not that everyone doesn’t want to answer, it’s that no one can answer this question.
Although the man died on the battlefield as a corpse wrapped in horse leather, no one wants to die in vain.
"This battle is not easy," the older man said softly after a while.
"Mom, you don't need to think about it.
When we fight against bandits in the future, we will definitely be the ones in front.
Let us do the work that will lead to death.
But it will be them who are waiting to receive the reward."
Bearded Beard suddenly said loudly.
Everyone knew who he meant by them.
"I heard someone say that Liangshan seems to have the Thirteen Military Rules and the Five Iron Laws.
The first of the five iron laws is: it is the duty of soldiers to obey orders.
How well said A group of thieves can do this, how can we complain too much?
Since you are a soldier, you must obey orders and there is nothing to complain about. " The older man said to everyone. "" Everyone was silent, no one answered.
No one knew what to say, and everyone understood the truth, but "Well, it would be great if Ma Dujian is still here.
It's better to work with Ma Dujian and have fun," said a person sitting in the corner.
"Yes, I hope Ma Doujian is okay.
Ma Doujian is really a good general" the young soldier replied. "" The older man sitting at the door stood up and said to everyone, "It's getting late.

Let's all go to bed early."
After that, he walked towards his bed.
Everyone else stopped talking after hearing this, and then stood up and returned to their seats.
After a while, the camp fell into silence, and snoring gradually broke out.
At this time, a thin figure flashed out of the shadows outside the tent and quickly ran towards another tent. "" The residence of Lin Chong in Daming Mansion.
Lin Chong, Wu Yong, and Dai Zong were sitting in the study.
Lin Chong said, "I didn't expect that Cai You's men are quite capable and know how to set up a camp at the mouth of the valley."
"Yes, and judging from the reports from the spies, the trenches they dug around the camp are specifically for our cavalry.
It seems that Cai You plans to defend for a while."
Wu Yong said to Lin Chong and Dai Zong.
"Hahaha, what a pity.
I thought Cai You would camp in the valley.
Alas, I missed the opportunity to annihilate them all in one fell swoop," Lin Chong said, shaking his head.
Lin Chong did feel a little pity.
If the army camped in the valley, there would be no need to use any tactics.
At that time, as long as Lin Chong blocked the valley entrances on both sides with large troops, the siege alone would be able to trap these officers and soldiers to death.
But there are not so many ifs in the world
"Brother, what should we do next?"
Dai Zong asked aloud.
"Don't worry, let's see how the situation is at Shi Qian's side first.
Maybe he will bring us some surprises," Lin Chong said to Dai Zong with a smile.
Wu Yong and Dai Zong both laughed when they heard Lin Chong mention Shi Qian.
Yes, every time Shi Qian took action personally, he would always come back with good news for everyone.
The three of them chatted about other things and then went back to rest.
There was no talking all night, and he came back early the next morning.
"Brother, little brother is back" Lin Chong was in the study thinking about the adjustment of his troops after the victory, when Shi Qian ran in in a hurry.
"Oh, brother is back.
Thank you for your hard work.
How is the situation?"
Lin Chong asked happily when he saw Shi Qian coming back.
After Shi Qian came in and said hello, he went straight to the teapot on Lin Chong's desk, picked up the teapot and drank from it without any courtesy.
Fortunately, Lin Chong's pot of tea had been brewing for a while, and the temperature was not that high, otherwise he would have burned Shi Qian.
Lin Chong smiled when he saw this, and then shouted to the soldiers outside the door, "Go to the kitchen to get some food and bring it over."
Lin Chong knew that Shi Qian must not have eaten anything all night, so he gave instructions outside.
"Hehe, it's better for the elder brother to understand the younger brother."
Shi Qian put on his playful and smiling expression again.
"Stop talking so fast and speak quickly," Lin Chong said deliberately with a straight face.
"Hehe" Shi Qian knew that Lin Chong was not angry at all, so he laughed again.
But when he saw Lin Chong's right foot tending to lift, he quickly retracted his smile, put on a very serious expression, and then said seriously, "My little brother sneaked into the army camp last night and overheard many soldiers.
Speaking privately, overall morale is low.
Especially the soldiers led by Ma Wanli, Wang Yi and other brothers were not only low in morale, but also very dissatisfied with Cai You and other generals, thinking that they were unfair, and the soldiers complained greatly in private. " After hearing this, Lin Chong thought for a while and then asked, "What do the soldiers privately think of the captured brothers?"
Lin Chong was most concerned about the officers and soldiers' views on the capture of Ma Wanli and others, and wanted to see if the soldiers they brought still thought of them.
