The darkness of the night put an end to the war for the time being, and both sides were resting and preparing to continue fighting tomorrow.
Wang Dazhuang was still sitting next to the bonfire, adding firewood to the flames under the marching pot, which was still boiling with thick porridge like yesterday, but in the eyes of the soldiers around him, the bonfire was brighter and more active than yesterday, and the porridge in the pot was sweeter.
Yesterday's squadron leader, in today's battle luckily survived, but there were a few new scars on his body, and now he was wrapped like a zongzi, leaning on his shoulder with a long spear, and naturally took the meat porridge handed over by Wang Dazhuang, took a sip beautifully, and then squinted his eyes and breathed: "Captain, it's strange for you to say, in the past, we just looked at the rabbit meat, we started retching, but today I ate very, very sweet, what is the reason?"
Wang Dazhuang stretched out his hand as he did yesterday, gave him a tight bandage that had been loosened, and replied with a smile: "Actually, what I ate before and what I eat now is the same, the difference is your mood, your mood determines everything, I think that when I was in the cave of the city gate, it was just a plate of pig's head meat, a few handfuls of peanuts, and it was difficult to drink the worst wine now, but at that time, the pig's head meat and peanuts were the most beautiful dishes in the world that my dozen brothers felt, and now it seems that the bad wine that can't be swallowed, It's the elixir and jade liquid that doesn't exist in the sky, in fact, now that I think about it, it's not the food that I eat, and the wine I drink is not the wine, that's the mood, it's a kind of heart-to-heart mood between brothers, just like the bowl of porridge you eat now, when you eat it yesterday, it's a sad feeling, after drinking, you may never drink it again today, but how do you feel now?"
The squadron leader smirked and almost put the porridge bowl in his face, because he was a kind and honest person and uneducated, and he really couldn't understand the twists and turns of this period.
Wang Dazhuang patted him lightly on the shoulder, and laughed and teased him: "For example, last night, you still wanted to die in battle, and in a few years, your brother's son will be recorded under your tablet and accept their worship and blood food, and you still want to use your pension to support your nephew to be admitted to the top prize, so what do you think now?"
The squadron leader put down the porridge bowl and immediately replied: "My nephew is a nephew after all, it is not my own, I can treat my nephew as my own son, but I can't compare to my own son.
Then he moved his body forward: "Captain, I also figured it out, after this battle is over, the poor yellow flower girl in Liaodong has it, and I plan to use the reward for winning this battle to marry one."
Then he added very seriously: "It's not to buy it, it's the real Ming media who is marrying, and then I'll take him back to my hometown and let him give me a litter of babies, anyway, my current military salary, there is no problem in supporting them." ” As a result, his little ambition immediately ushered in the laughter of the brothers around him, laughing at his short-sightedness.
"You old brother, why don't you stay here in Liaoxi, contract a hundred acres of land, you are the landlord, and live a peaceful and stable life when the time comes, how good it is."
At this time, a fellow villager made fun of him loudly.
As a result, the squadron leader stalked his neck: "Why am I short-sighted, we have won, of course we want to go back to our hometown in a beautiful way, besides, you have to know, our Inspector is our Shanshan people, and his soldiers must also be our Shanshan people, I gave birth to this litter of babies, and when they grow up in the future, let him take over Lao Tzu's class, participate in our Fuliao Army, serve as a soldier for the Supervisor, and follow the adults to fight the world."
Then he stretched his neck with a smile and asked Wang Dazhuang: "Captain, you said that our adults are all children born in our own family, is that more intimate Anyway, I think so." ” Hearing his explanation, a circle of brothers immediately gathered around, including the soldiers of the Fuliao Army, as well as those hired people, behind them was the dark night, in front of them was a blazing bonfire, each holding their own weapons, holding the big bowl in their hands, their faces were full of happy laughter, and began to talk to each other about their dreams.
Wang Dazhuang's eyes were hot, his nose was sore, and he quietly turned his head away from the bonfire, he really didn't want to be discovered by everyone, and he felt like crying again.
This is the heart of the army, he really feels infinitely happy for his brother, because what he does will give him an infinite strength of loyalty, such as the gold and silver of the mountain are thousands of times stronger.
There is such a group of brothers, and their own brothers, no matter what kind of desperate situation they are in, will be invincible.
Now, just wait for the arrival of his brother's army, and then the brothers will work together to destroy the Manchu Eight Banners.
The sky is already dark, on the official road leading to Liaozhong in Shengjing, the entire official road illuminated by the torches of the dragon is like day, the line of troops, stepping on the rumbling and anxious footsteps, is galloping to the south, countless pairs of military boots bring up yellow dust to cover the sky and the sun, from time to time there are war horses running from the front and back of the team, passing the military orders, from time to time there are the black figures of the sergeant running from the front to the rear, conveying the military situation of the front line.
"Hurry up, let's work harder, we are not far from the battlefield in Liaozhong."
The captains of each team stood on the side of the road, encouraging the brothers who rumbled in front of them, hoping that their steps would be faster.
The team in front of them was exhausted, and the beautiful military uniforms had been covered by the loess that had been stepped on, and then they were sweated and turned into mud, but everyone couldn't take care of it, and the march of one hundred and fifty miles in two days and two nights was simply incredible in this world.
The continuous soldiers are moving forward mechanically, this is a march that almost overdraws everyone's limit, the strong one, has three muskets on his back, every time he passes, there will almost always be two people with one, or some people carry muskets and other brothers, the horses originally assigned to the officers, at this time there are 2 or 3 brothers who have gone out of force, and the tail of the horse is staggering and pulling one.
Zhao Sihai saw that in the team in front of him, there were many brothers who were already staggering when they walked, and it was obvious that they were asleep, but even so, they still mechanically moved their feet and kept up with the brothers in front of them. t1706231537:
