Liu Xin has always emphasized military discipline. Even he himself doesn't speak casually in the team. Just now Zhu Rong had been saying that he was listening. Although Zhu Rong was not in the army. But Liu Xin didn't want to indulge her too much. So his face sank. The lesson said: "Wish girl. We are marching and fighting now. It's not a tour of mountains and rivers."
Zhu Rongzheng casually pulled out the Wang Cai feather from the golden pheasant tail. Did not notice Liu Xin's face at all. Hearing him talk about "touring in mountains and playing in water". Can not help but think of the past. He casually said: "When I was young, there was a stream behind the stockade. A few of our friends like to go there to play. You can catch fish, shrimps and frogs. There are also those little big crabs. We..."
Speaking of which. Suddenly, Zhu Rong lost his voice. When Liu Xin turned to look. A few crystal lights flashed in Zhu Rong's eyes. Liu Xin thought that he had said that sentence a bit more heavily. I was thinking how to comfort her a few words.
But Zhu Rong murmured: "Brother. At that time, my elder brother was playing together. There were also brothers Meng Huo. Feng Yingying and her brother were also there. How happy everyone was together at that time. But. You said Meng. Why did you hurt my dad?"
Liu Xin smiled bitterly. why. Isn't it because you came to Xiangyang to find me? But Liu Xin couldn't say it clearly.
Zhu Rong didn't want Liu Xin to answer at all. He already continued there and said: "Actually, I also know. Meng Huo did this because of me. But he should have known three years ago. I already had a date with my elder brother. Why does he want to do this? Forget it. I don’t want this anymore. Brother. You must promise me. Decapitate Menghuo’s head with your own hands."
Liu Xin couldn't help but feel ashamed. How can I say that I have a date with her. It was obviously just a bet. For the question of who will kill Meng Huo. Liu Xin didn't want to pester her on this. As the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. How could he do it himself.
Just wanted to switch the topic. One looked up. Liu Xin saw the high mountains on both sides. Suddenly he looked sad. Strangled the horse. Frozen for a while. Still turned over and jumped down.
This is where Zhu Bao pushed down the huge boulder from the top of the mountain three years ago. right now. The road has become wide and flat. The steep cliffs that year have also become smoother because of road construction and removal of rocks. However, the traces of the boulders that had rolled down are still faintly visible. It can be imagined. How powerful was it at that time. That day. Ling'er, posing as Liu Xin, was sitting in the carriage. Almost lost his life. I want to come now. All this is like happening in front of your eyes.
Liu Xin waved. Let Wei's paused team move on. He came to the side of the road alone. Li Yi knelt down. Three heads respectfully kowtow towards the top of the mountain.
Wait for him to return to the team. Zhu Rong asked incomprehensibly: "Brother. Are you worshiping a mountain god just now. I haven't heard of any gods on this mountain."
Liu Xin said solemnly, "No. There are two hundred gods on this mountain."
Zhu Rong was taken aback. Their entire barbarian worshipped only one fire god. There are actually two hundred gods in this not-so-famous mountain.
Liu Xin let out a long sigh of relief. Said: "Miss wish. I returned to Xiangyang from Zangke three years ago. The attack on this road. You must have heard of it."
Zhu Rong nodded. Said: "Of course I heard. Later. Because of this, you sent troops to attack Zhang Ke. You also made my dad prefect."
Liu Xin said with a sad face: "Back then, I hid two hundred soldiers on this mountain. As a response, they all suffered from Zhu Bao's poisonous hand. If it weren't for the leader Wang Wei to come and report the letter, I'm afraid that I would be too. They were to be conspired by him. These soldiers sacrificed to save my life. The three heads I just gave to them were knocked out. I only hate that I can't be replaced by my body at that time. It's a pity that I am a good son of the Han Dynasty. "
Although he was just listening to Zhu Rong alone. But it has been passed into the ears of the soldiers around. Everyone who heard it was moved. The silent marching team gradually made a burst of violence. One pass ten. Ten pass one hundred. It soon became known to everyone.
at that age. An ordinary soldier died if he died. Even in Liu Xin's army. At most, it means more pensions, higher honors, and better treatment of family members. No one dared to ask the chief to cry for them. No one would have thought of it. Liu Xin, who was in such a high position, would bow down to worship them.
The scholar died for the confidant. These soldiers are ordinary people. Ordinary can no longer be ordinary. They come from all walks of life in society. There are farmers. There are merchants. There are craftsmen. There are even beggars and serfs. According to the standards at the time. No one can be qualified as a "shi". but. This does not prevent them from expressing their emotions. A heartfelt willingness to give life to those who respect themselves. I don’t know who took the lead and shouted: "Long live the lord."
The word long live is exclusive to the emperor. It is not allowed to shout casually. When this sound came out. The whole team suddenly fell into silence. suddenly. Tens of thousands of soldiers knelt to the ground. "Hurrah. Long live." The shouts sounded like a tsunami. Reverberating among the mountains. Startled to fly the birds in the jungle.
Liu Xin's knocking of those three heads just now was not artificial. It's completely from the heart. He is the same as these soldiers. All once lived at the bottom of society. But Liu Xin thinks. There is no difference in the dignity of life. All should be respected equally. Looking at the soldier who knelt down in the dark in front of him. Liu Xin reluctantly danced his hand. Said loudly: "Soldiers. People are inherently dead. Death is heavier than Mount Tai. There is lighter than a feather. Those who gave their lives for the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty are true heroes. They should be immortal for generations to come. What we have to do . Just not let the blood of the martyrs flow in vain. Let us fight together for the revival of the big man."
"Fight. Fight."
The soldiers waved their swords and guns excitedly. Morale was so high.
This is an unexpected mobilization. The speed of the team's progress has increased significantly. Everyone sighed. Those who are trying to divide the territory of the Han are to be hit head-on. Even Zhu Rong's gaze towards Liu Xin was full of admiration.
It's noon. The local chief and villagers who arrived after hearing the news delivered hot meals. Among these people are many barbarians. After several years of development. The economy of Zangke has improved greatly. People's lives are better. The policies of the Hanman family have gradually become popular among the people. And all this should be attributed to Liu Xin. I heard that Liu Xin arrived. The people of the Han and Manchu tribes naturally cheered.
It is Liu Xin's customary style to love the people without disturbing them. This enthusiasm for the common people. Liu Xin politely declined one by one. It took a lot of effort to persuade these people away. It doesn't sound very good. He just erected a tall image in front of the soldiers today. How can we specialize now? Moreover. The soldiers have begun to bury the pot and cook. It will take a while. He can also eat hot meals. It's just not that delicious.
Liu Xin said dryly. I just sat down and wanted to catch my breath. Then smelled a scent of meat. He only regarded it as a greedy soldier. Secretly roasted game. For this kind of thing. Liu Xin generally does not ask. but. He is both a super chef. Another top gourmet. Smell the fragrance. Liu Xin couldn't help but sniffed vigorously. Nodded secretly. He said to himself: "Well. It's a barbecue. It's still grilled with pine branches. It smells good. I just don't know how well the heat is controlled."
Suddenly, a silver bell-like voice came from behind him: "Brother. I want to know if the heat is good. You will know if you taste it."
Liu Xin doesn't need to look back. You know who is talking. Only then did I remember the golden pheasant that Zhu Rong had beaten on the road. Can not help but secretly said a pity. Such a beautiful golden pheasant. It would be great if it were taken home and made into specimens for the children to see.
really. A smooth, greasy roast chicken has stretched out in front of him. Liu Xin is an expert. Just look at it from the looks. This chicken is grilled well. And the rich aroma. The index finger violently moved when someone smelled it. I couldn't help but praised: "Wish girl. You baked this. I didn't expect you to have this ability."
"That's enough. I can get a lot better. I can also roast hares, roast frogs, and roast small fish." Zhu Rong turned to the front triumphantly. He tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Liu Xin. "How about it. The fragrance is not fragrance. You promised me one thing. This chicken leg is for you."
Liu Xingang wanted to reach out and pick it up. I had to shrink back when I heard this sentence. He said whisperedly: "You have lived in our house for so many days for nothing. Now you have to make conditions for eating your chicken legs. It's really unbelievable. Let's talk. What's the matter."
A red cloud flew up suddenly on Zhu Rong's face. He whispered: "Don't call me girly in the future. Just call me Amei, OK?"
Liu Xin knows. In the customs of the barbarians. Brothers and sisters are of special significance. But he also didn't want to embarrass Zhu Rong. Besides, the crux of the question now is who can kill Meng Huo. Even if she is called Amei now, it shouldn't matter. So he snatched the chicken leg. Said: "Okay. Let me taste Amei's craftsmanship first."
I wish Rong immediately became happy. Said: "Brother. If you find it delicious, I will leave this one for you."
"Mei. My appetite is limited. One chicken leg is enough. You should keep it for yourself." Liu Xin knew that Zhu Rong's appetite was surprisingly large. It can beat him three or four. A gentleman does not take advantage of others. It should be content to snatch a drumstick from her mouth. He was talking. He grabbed the chicken leg and took a bite. Repeatedly said. "En. Yes. Yes. Outer focus and inner tenderness. The heat is just right. It just seems like something is missing. En. That's right. It would be perfect if you could sprinkle some more salt."
"Salt is a rare thing in our barbarians. So we are reluctant to put it when we bake." Zhu Rong obviously disagrees with Liu Xin's last comment. but. For the sake of compliments before. Still said. "If you like it. I will put a little bit on it when I bake it later."
