The rain in spring doesn’t fall if you don’t say it will, and it will rain if you say it will. There is no accuracy at all, especially in the mountains. It’s so easy. When you climb over a ridge, it rains on one side of the ridge, but it doesn’t rain on the other side. If you stand on
On the ridge, you can really experience the strange feeling of half of your face being dry and half of your face being wet, which really makes Fei Qian very depressed.
The reason why we chose the Tangluo Road is very simple. Because the Tangluo Road is the only road that does not take the weather into consideration. Although it is difficult to walk and requires walking over mountains and ridges, most of it is still a mountain road.
Ziwu Road is already difficult to walk, and with the damaged plank roads, it will literally kill people if it rains!
Although Baoxie Road is relatively gentle, the plank road in Baoshui has not been repaired and the water level is high in spring, so it is not suitable.
Therefore, although the Tangluo Road is difficult to walk, we have to choose this path.
The mountains are already a bit humid, and with the rain, the air above, below, left, and right is sticky, which is very uncomfortable. When climbing the mountain road, the mud is slippery, and then the smelly sweat and humid air are mixed together, which is simply...
Unparalleled enjoyment.
Fei Qian found a relatively flat place, then sat down on the stone, breathing heavily.
Li Guanshen walked over with one foot and one foot at a time. When he arrived in front of Fei Qian, he was panting and cupped his hands and said: "General, as soon as I saw that we were reaching Shenling, my subordinates took the lead. I wonder if the general has any other orders?"
Fei Qian slapped Li Guan up and down, rolled his eyes, and said, "Zijin, do you have many robes?"
Li Guan looked down at the mud all over his body in embarrassment, and then said: "General... this... doesn't..."
"Come here! Bring someone's robe and bring it to Zijin! By the way, bring the curtain too!" After Fei Qian gave the order, he smiled at Li Guan and said, "Zijin, you and I are about the same height.
You might as well make do with it..."
"How dare this... subordinate wear the robe of a general! No way, no way..." Li Guan waved his hand to refuse.
Fei Qian said: "It doesn't matter. Most people in the world see people by their robes... If Zijin has such an image, he may not be taken seriously by others... Moreover, these robes are ordinary things and have no markings..."
What is the style of the gentry’s children?
Even on the way to escape, you still have to have a high level of self-esteem.
I didn't expect Chong'er to escape all the way. Not only could he harvest carriages and horses along the way, he could also get wives and concubines along the way. The important thing is that there were more than one...
How do you say something?
The world is green... Well, what, the noble families in the world are one family?
A few days ago, Fei Qian roughly understood Li Ru's plan when he heard Li Ru emphasize that there were many "Dongzhou scholars" in Hanzhong and Shuzhong.
The plan is actually very simple.
Pretending to be a fugitive nobleman, he attacked the Tangluo army camp and opened the way into Hanzhong...
Of course, pretending to be refugees or breaking up troops are also often used to deceive the city, but specific issues require detailed analysis.
Hanzhong and Guanzhong do not belong to the same system, and are semi-isolated from each other. Therefore, the soldiers in Guanzhong and Hanzhong have even less friendship. If they pretend to be in retreat, bump into someone who is in a good mood, or
I'm in a bad mood, I ate too much in the morning or didn't eat well in the morning, the football field, um, there is too much or too little grass in the military camp in the mountains, and then I use these broken soldiers to operate to correct military law...
Refugees are similar.
Originally, refugees were basically the lowest class of people in the Han Dynasty, worse than farmers and tenants. There was a clear provision in Han law that anyone who captured a refugee could be taken directly to the government to exchange for a small amount of money...
So those people who physically traveled through the streets, paraded through the streets in public, dressed like foreign spies, were not arrested?
Therefore, if you want to take the Tangluo Road, you can only use your identity as a fleeing nobleman as a cover, which is most suitable.
The nobles have wealth, so it's normal to bring more people, and it's normal to bring more items. It's even normal to have more powerful guards following you, and it's also normal to wear weapons...
As for the general laws of the Han Dynasty, they were all aimed at the lower class. There were very few people who really had jurisdiction over the gentry, and even fewer who could control the big gentry.
Anyway, Hanzhong has accepted so many "Dongzhou scholars" who fled south, so naturally there will be one more Li Guanlai, right?
Li Guan was also very willing and even a little excited to accept this task.
It’s a great achievement!
If it fails, since I have nothing to lose except my life, I might as well give it a try and exchange my bicycle for a motorcycle. Wrong, the yellow ribbon is exchanged for the black ribbon, and the black ribbon is exchanged for the green ribbon!
Li Guan touched the black ribbon and button seal in his arms, then solemnly bowed to Fei Qian, and left resolutely.
Gong Jun followed, also offered his hand to Fei Qian, and then followed Li Guan with his men, dressed as his bodyguard, and headed towards the Shenling military camp.
"Tsk..." Fei Qian looked at the back of Li Guan climbing towards the Shenling military camp with his men, and took a sip.
Even Fei Qian was a little moved by Li Guan's aura of risking his life to get it done.
I was moved for about ten seconds.
almost.
Damn it, the proletarian gentry are more terrifying...
Just like Wei Liu who was sent after the Wei family in Hedong surrendered, he spread his arms and legs to show Fei Qian that he could do whatever he wanted, including steaming, stir-frying, and frying.
But are these people really loyal to Fei Qian?
hehe.
"Is there any water left?" Fei Qian wiped his face with his hand, wiping away the sweat or rain that he didn't know, and turned to ask Huang Xu.
"Yes, Lord." Huang Xu took off the water bag he was carrying and handed it to Fei Qian.
In fact, the water stored in the water bladder does not taste good at all. It naturally has a taste of tanner. Moreover, if the water is stored in the bladder for a long time, it will also deteriorate and breed bacteria, which will make the taste even weirder. Drink it
There seems to be a sticky feeling in the mouth...
But there is no way. Before mature forging technology, it was impossible to have a metal military kettle.
Although the bamboo tube is good, the hard shell has a small capacity and the problem is not much better than the water bladder.
Fei Qian took a gulp, then held it in his mouth, puffed out his cheeks, and flipped it from side to side to wash away the fine powder stuck to his teeth. He gurgled for a long time, reluctant to spit it out, and swallowed it.
When climbing a mountain trail, the food and water you carry are limited and cannot be wasted easily.
Compressed flour cakes have this disadvantage. They stick to teeth easily. If not cleaned in time, bacteria will breed and cause dental caries. In the Han Dynasty, dental caries were generally irreversible and there was no repair technology, so it was important to clean the mouth in time.
.
The water doesn't taste good, so I make do with it because there is no other way at the moment. There is no toothpaste or mouthwash, so I make do with ordinary green salt and water. It is also because there is no other way at the moment. Therefore, people like Wei Liu and Li Guan
People clearly know that their thoughts are no longer at home, but they still make do with it...
Fei Qian returned the water bag to Huang Xu and made up his mind.
must.
After taking Hanzhong this time, I must take some time to get the toothbrush out!
Last time Fei Qian mentioned it, the enthusiastic Huang Yueying was very strong in execution, so she braided one with pig hair. The result was not easy to use, mainly because the hair fell off, and she didn’t brush it for a few times, and she ended up with a mouth full of pigs.
hair……
"Gong Ming! Send the order, repair on the spot! Pay attention to cleaning the insects and snakes where you stay!" Fei Qian ordered, "After nightfall, this village will be destroyed!"
…………………………
The defenders of the small military village in Shenling, Tanluo Road, were basically hunters who were originally seeking a living in the mountains, or tenant farmers in the Hanzhong area. Because they had no choice but to make a living, they joined the army and made a living.
The situation is basically the same as that of later generations. The living conditions of the defenders stationed here on the Tangluo Mountain Road are naturally much worse than those of the defenders in counties. They have been isolated from the world for many years and have very few supplies.
, not to mention any entertainment projects. Therefore, basically all kinds of excluded soldiers who are not very popular, or have little wealth, or do not know how to flatter the camp, are all assigned here.
here.
If there are some watersheds in the back, they are closer to the county seat. If you find an excuse to go to the county seat or something, you can drink a bowl of hot soup and drool at the waist and buttocks of the older girls and younger wives. But here in Shenling, except for those newcomers,
The buttocks are fairly white and tender, and there is nothing worth looking at.
A bowl of mixed porridge that is so thin that you can see a person's face in the morning is breakfast, and then there is another bowl in the evening, plus a multi-grain pancake that is smaller than your thumb, which is all the food for the day.
The middle-aged team leader of Shenling Military Village, whose surname is Sun, no one knows his specific name, has been staying in Shenling for nearly ten years, and was here before Zhang Lu came. Because he has been in the army for a long time,
He gradually rose from a small soldier to a team leader.
Although it is said to be a team rate, it is actually not full of people. It is only about forty people at full capacity. As for the number of people who are less, haha...
It was originally a serious Han army, but after Zhang Lu came, it was adapted into some kind of Tianwei soldiers. Anyway, the captain didn't know much about it. He only knew about food and other things. It got better for a while, and he was even given a Taoist robe.
It was more or less a new piece of clothing, but after about two or three months, the supply fell back to its original level.
It is said to be a military stronghold, but it is actually an enhanced version of a large checkpoint. It is only used as the first peripheral security guard on the Tangluo Road. The serious military stronghold is at the watershed.
But such a small army village is not easy to deal with. Because of the terrain, at a high place near the ridge, stones are used as the foundation and wood is used as the wall. They are surrounded by the mountain on one side, which just blocks the mountain road.
.
I have to say that Junzhai is indeed dangerous. On one side is a steep and smooth mountain, and on the other side is a vertical cliff. With such a small upward slope, even if it is crowded, it can only accommodate two or three people walking together, and there are no cliffs.
Any rope or chain protection will be shattered if not careful.
In such a terrain, if we were to attack by force, the queue would not be able to spread out. Secondly, it would be difficult to stand on the smooth rocks and attack the wall with our head upwards. If one of us loses balance, we would either fall off the cliff or slide down the rocks...
At the height of the military stronghold, a sentry tower was supported on the mountain with long logs, which also shouldered the role of an arrow tower. However, there was no one on this extremely dangerous sentry tower.
Judging from the topography alone, this military stronghold is indeed scary to look at, but if one goes beyond such an imposing wall and goes in, it becomes too shabby to look at.
Perhaps due to terrain restrictions, there is only one large hut and one small hut in the military camp.
That's it, the rest is gone.
Big huts are naturally used to house people, but small huts...
Of course it is used to store weapons and utensils.
What, a toilet?
I think too much. Is there any toilet in this wilderness?
The number of people in this Shenling military camp is forty. If we include the old Taoist halfway up the mountain behind, the two Taoist boys, and one of the servants, there are forty-four people.
Horses, not a single one.
There were twelve bows, but half of them had either cracked arms or rotten bowstrings. I asked for replacements several times, but they were never sent.
There were quite a few spare knives and guns, fifty-three in total.
As for the armor...
What is armor?
The Heavenly Master has his own divine power to protect himself, so of course he does not need armor.
Among the entire team, the most valuable items were the two large pots in the military camp shed.
There is no routine for military pay. It is considered very good to be able to provide food and grass once every month or two. Recently, I heard that even Guanzhong is not peaceful and there is a lot of turmoil. Therefore, a small and inconspicuous military village like Shenling can still
The delivery of some food and grass was considered a blessing from Master Zhang.
The spring rain continued, and at dusk, the temperature dropped sharply. There was no dry firewood in the fire pit in the hut, so we had to make do with wet firewood.
It's just wet firewood. Of course, there is smoke, which makes the inside of the hut like a cloud and fog. It's so choking that everyone inside is crowded and lying together. Everyone coughs from time to time, but no matter who it is, they are too lazy to get up and clean up these things.
He just held the wet straw curtain close to his body.
There were some small cracks on the top of the hut, and water kept dripping down, dripping on the ground. The big-headed soldier also tried his best to huddle up to avoid the raindrops, making the already crowded hut even more messy.
Lieutenant Sun was lying on the driest place, rolling his eyelids and just looking at everything in front of him. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, turned over and sat up, and shouted: "Smelly rocks, you two bitches, hurry up and pinch me."
Get up on your butt, go up and add some hay to the roof of the shed, and then throw these damn wet firewood to me! Find some more dry firewood! What a fucking bunch of cowards! These days, it’s really hard to survive!
"
After shouting, Captain Sun still felt unhappy, so he turned to the other end and shouted: "Old Wangtou! Wasn't there a half-breasted rabbit yesterday? Why is there no trace today? It took a lot of effort for me to unbutton the button.
This stupid rabbit only ate half of it, why is it gone? Damn it, are you greedy?"
When Captain Sun yelled and cursed loudly, a few of those who were close leaned to the side. Those who were far away pretended not to hear. Anyway, didn't Captain Sun yell a lot that day to vent his anger?
Not only that, some people murmured in a low voice: "What about the rabbit? Damn it, the rabbit that I worked so hard to take care of, and then was spotted by three gods... This is nothing! If I had known, it would be worse than yesterday.
I ate it all in one go, just mixed with some oil and water..."
"Don't move. If you move again, the dry mouth in your stomach will melt and you will starve to death in the middle of the night!"
"Just go to sleep, go to sleep, just fall asleep..."
"Damn you, who farts and doesn't even say a word in advance!"
Suddenly there was a lot of chattering in the hut, talking about everything, but no one took Captain Sun's words seriously.
Although there are differences in so-called levels, everyone is destined to die and are all proletarians. Who is afraid of whom?
A team leader is a serious team leader if he has the ability to make food and drink...
Seeing that this month's food and grass supplies are almost at the bottom again, everyone is worried.
"..." Captain Sun stared, then fell down in despair, "... damn, they are all a bunch of melon skins..."
"Boom!"
Then there was another sound.
"Boom!"
There was sudden silence inside the hut.
I only heard someone shouting angrily outside the village wall, "Is there anyone alive, please come out and breathe!"
"Aha!" Team Sun stood up and said, "Hahaha, the big deal is coming!"
"What kind of big deal? The same few refugees as last time? They are skinny and have no meat at all..."
"You know nothing!" Captain Sun kicked him without any politeness and said, "Did you see that homeless man dare to break down the door like this? Haha, if you don't scrape off some oil and water this time, I will
His mother’s surname is not Sun!”
"So, you have some serious meat to eat? Hahaha, that's great!"
"And corn! Sorghum!"
"Maybe there's a leg of lamb! That smell, wow..."
Captain Sun sneered and said with a ferocious smile: "Look at your bears, these guys may have gold and silver on them! Hey, boys, listen up! If there are more people than us, we will be able to wait on you.
Anyway, we need some oil and water... If we bring few people... Hehehehe..."
"Hey hey hey..."
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter of almost the same form inside the hut.
"Team leader, do you want to send someone to talk to the three gods at the back..."
someone asked.
"Let's take a look first. If you can eat it, let's not talk about it... If there are many people, let's talk about it..." Captain Sun waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Come and have a look with me!"
