Chapter 17 The moon is dark tonight and the wind is high, which is a good opportunity for hunting
August 25, dusk.
The training was over, and noises were heard everywhere in the military camp.
"Practice, practice, practice, just practice once a day. Even if there is no military pay and food is poor, how can the Qin army treat me so harshly?"
The mourning husband once again stood in front of the soldiers. The incitement of spitting among us:
"When I was a soldier in South Korea, I ate much more than this, and I only practiced once every five days. The rest of the time I could have fun on my own, unlike in the Qin army, where I was not treated as a human being at all!"< br>
“I wish I could go on an expedition as soon as possible, and be defeated as soon as possible, so that Zhao can seize Shangdang County, so that I can continue to be a member of the Shangdang!”
Another Tuo shouted loudly. Response: "Are you still going on an expedition?"
"I saw with my own eyes the generals running to Gaole outside the military camp last night. They didn't even think of going out for an expedition!"
The mourning husband's eyes flashed. Staring, with disbelief on his face: "What? The generals asked me to wait and train every day, but they went to have fun every night?"
"You're not a human being!"
Following the words of the mourning husband, the soldiers couldn't help but whisper.
Why are the generals going to have fun every day while they are so exhausted and barely fed?
Even the more rational soldiers can't help but worry about whether such a group of generals who only know how to have fun can lead them to victory.
Even the soldiers who longed for military honors and knighthoods were angry that the army had already been assembled. Why didn't they go out to fight?
For a time, no matter what thoughts they had, the soldiers were filled with resentment.
Not far away, Yafu looked at the grieving husband who was still eloquent. He clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves and secretly shouted: "Shameful! Hateful!"
But What can Yafu do?
He knew that soon another senior general would come to take the mourning husband away, saying that he would severely punish the mourning husband.
But what’s the result?
This is already the third time that Yafu has seen his mourning husband making noises in the army, and the answer is self-evident.
Another soldier persuaded in a low voice: "Captain, don't get angry. We can't control this matter. Think about the master's instructions."
Bafu took a deep breath and nodded vigorously. : "I know!"
"Everyone disperse, whether it can be accomplished depends on tonight!"
All the soldiers handed over their hands and solemnly promised:
"Wei!"
The soldiers dispersed, and Yafu also walked towards a new military camp.
Seeing Bafu from a distance, Su Jiao was delighted: "General Bafu, are you here again?"
Bafu also smiled: "What, you don't want me to come?"
Faced with the clamor of hundreds of people including the mourning husband, Hachifu and dozens of family soldiers could not be comforted at all.
Therefore, Ying Chengyu decisively asked Bafu and others to abandon most of the soldiers, and only provided ideological guidance to a small number of Shangdang soldiers who were committed to the Qin Dynasty.
Focus on deep cultivation and win with quality.
So during these three days, Hachifu would come here every day.
Bafu bowed down and spoke casually, and even Su Jiao and other soldiers became more and more friendly towards Bafu.
Su Jiao quickly shook his head: "No way, it's such an honor for the general to come. It's not even late for a soldier like me to welcome him!"
Bafu laughed and scolded: "I see you are not welcoming me at all, but you are welcoming the food in my hand!"
While speaking, Bafu threw a bamboo basket to Su Jiao: "Go on!"< br>
Looking at the roasted venison in the basket, Su Jiao's eyes lit up.
But Su Jiao took out the roasted venison first and chopped it finely with a knife. He only took one piece and distributed the rest to the surrounding soldiers.
Putting the venison slices into his mouth, and after savoring the taste, Su Jiao reluctantly swallowed the meat slices into his belly, satisfied and praised: "It's so good!"
Even though Su Jiao and others could only eat a small piece of meat each, it still made the soldiers in the distance ravenous.
When Yafu saw this, he laughed and scolded: "Look at your appearance. If you want to see it, just look at it openly. What does it mean to peek?"
"I don't even dare to have a piece of venison today. Think about it, if you go to the battlefield tomorrow, would you dare to think of military merit?"
Immediately a soldier shouted: "General, I also want to eat meat!"
Bafu said directly. He shouted back: "Where do you think this meat came from? We hunted it ourselves when we went out to camp."
"Originally, it was supposed to be dedicated to my family master, but the family master asked me to share it with the new recruits in the army."
"If you want to eat it, if I wait for more hunts tomorrow, I will share it with you, or you can follow me. Let’s go hunting together!”
Su Jiao asked in surprise: “Can we go out hunting too?”
Hachifu nodded with a smile: “I’ll take you with me and we’ll go hunting together.” It's not difficult to make a trap." Hearing this, all the soldiers cheered: "Can we really go out to hunt?"
"General Hachio, I'm going with you. I'm a hunter!"
"I can finally hunt some meat to eat. This aged bean paste and millet rice are really disgusting to me!"
"General, when are you going to hunt, just say hello and I will follow you immediately!"
Hachifu smiled: "Since everyone is so eager, it is better to choose a day that hits the sun. ”
“Tonight the moon is dark and the wind is high, it is a good opportunity for hunting!”
……
That evening.
The musicians played the harp and the women danced gracefully.
Fan Yuqi and other lieutenant generals raised the wine cup in Ying Chengyu's mansion and shouted loudly:
"Drink to win!"
After drinking all the wine in the palace, Ying Chengyu exclaimed: "It feels so good!" Concubine Guan, have you ever had such an experience of drinking with heroes?”
“Free! Enjoy!”
Fan Yuqi smiled and shook his head: “General, please forgive me for speaking frankly. "
"After all, we are going on an expedition. The general is staying in Tunliu to learn the art of war in order to secure a victory over Zhao. The general can understand and is willing to teach him. "
"But the army is outside, and eating horse chews every day is a huge expense. The government's patience with us is limited."
"The general advised me that from now on, this daily banquet will be enough. The general should take more time to learn the truth!"
Ying Chengyu smiled slightly awkwardly: "I know it."
"I will do it in the daytime. Aren’t you serious about your studies? I will remember what Vice General Fan taught me!”
“Since you have studied all day, you should relax at night as a reward.”< br>
Fan Yuqi also had to admit that Ying Chengxuan's attitude towards learning was indeed very serious. Not only could he memorize things quickly, but he could also draw inferences from one instance and even raise objections to Fan Yuqi's deliberate arrangements.
It has only been more than half a month since the expedition. When only considering the details of the army, Ying Chengyu has reached the minimum standard of an ordinary deputy general. Although he is not outstanding, he cannot achieve much. Errors and omissions.
But what does Ying Chengyu’s rapid learning have to do with him?
Fan Yuqi thought very clearly that if he wanted to enjoy himself, there would be more opportunities after returning to Xianyang.
Why put yourself in enemy territory and put yourself in danger?
Fan Yuqi said in a solemn voice: "Even so, we should exercise restraint."
"The time alone for leaving and returning to the camp every day is enough for the general to learn a lot more knowledge."
" The general will advise you again. The banquet will be canceled from tomorrow, and the general will stay in the barracks to study hard. "
The leading dancer stopped dancing and blew into Fan Yuqi's arms like a cloud of fragrant wind, soft and charming. The voice bit Fan Yuqi's eardrum: "General, don't you want to see the slave family?"
Fan Yuqi's heart beat fiercely, and then he tightened his posture and said softly: "Rou Why did you say this?”
"The dance steps of the soft lady are really beautiful that I have never seen in this life. How could I not want to see you again?"
"It's just that we are on an expedition now. We need to be responsible for the lives of our soldiers. How can we indulge in our children?" Love is long?"
Rou Niang looked up at Fan Yuqi, her eyes so soft that they seemed to be oozing with water.
Seemingly seeing that Fan Yuqi’s gaze was firm and unfailing, Rou Niang filled Fan Yuqi’s cup of wine. Qianqian raised her hand to invite him to drink: “The general is really a man.”
"It's a pity that Rou Niang didn't have the luck to serve him, so she used this wine to toast the general on his triumphant return!"
When Ying Chengyu saw this, he laughed loudly: "You are indeed a beauty and a hero since ancient times."
"Why don't you guys drink this wine?"
While speaking, all the dancers stopped dancing, Each of them got into the side of a general and spoke softly and flattery.
Liu An and others also raised the wine cup in amusement and shouted loudly: "Drink to win!"
Fan Yuqi looked at Rou Niang with a smile and said warmly: "Rou Niang Please come first.”
Rou Niang glanced at Fan Yuqi charmingly, then drank the wine in one gulp.
After pausing for a few seconds and seeing that there was nothing strange about Rou Niang, Fan Yuqi smiled and raised the wine cup: "You are so happy, Rou Niang!"
"In that case, I will also Drink this wine!"
As he spoke, Fan Yuqi also brought the wine cup to his lips, raised his neck and drank the wine in one gulp.
But at the moment when he raised the wine baron high, he caught a cold light from the corner of his eye!
The only word Ying Chengyu wrote in "Historical Records" is "In the eighth year, General Chengyu of Chang'an, the king's younger brother, attacked Zhao rebels and died, and all the military officials who stayed in the camp were killed and moved his people to Lintao." " for the first time gave the explanation that Yingcheng died due to rebellion. Zhang Shouchie, who also lived in the Tang Dynasty, further supplemented this view in "Historical Records of Justice"; Cheese did not choose this explanation because "the military officials were all "Behead the people and move their people to Lintao". If Yingcheng died because of rebellion, this kind of punishment is completely inconsistent with the laws of Qin and the case law of the Qin Dynasty. Just more than ten years ago, Qin General Zheng Anping He led 20,000 Qin troops to surrender to the State of Zhao, which directly led to the defeat of Handan in Qin. As a result, the State of Qin only executed Zheng Anping's own family members and pardoned Fan Ju, the recommender, but did not blame the entire army, or even the whole army. Records implicating the families of generals such as lieutenants and captains. Then it makes no sense that Yingcheng's rebellion would implicate the entire army and even lead to local residents being moved to Lintao; Cheese personally believes that the sentence should be read as 'Eight years/Wang's brother Chang'an Jun Chengxu general attacked Zhao rebels ( Tonghui) / died in the camp / killed all the military officers / moved his people to Lintao. In "Historical Records: Lu Zhou Gong's Family", "When King Cheng came to his mansion, he cried when he saw the prayer book of Zhou Gong. If he rebelled against Zhou Gong, he would 'reverse' Tong 'return', so Cheese's understanding of this sentence is that Ying Cheng Xizai On the way back from leading the army to attack Zhao, soldiers mutinied and local people rebelled and died. This led to the Qin Dynasty killing all the soldiers and moving the local residents to Lintao. The above is Chi's personal opinion and also serves the plot of this book. , I apologize for any omissions!
