Sitting on the soft and dim grass, Xiao Han waved to the newly recruited soldiers from the city and motioned for them to sit down too.
"Well..." These recruits looked at Xiao Han hesitantly, and then at the dark-faced Liu Er. Finally, they made a final decision and carefully sat down opposite Xiao Han, but they did not dare to lean too close.
Close, just looking at him from a distance.
Looking at the recruits sitting in a semicircle opposite, Xiao Han smiled casually, turned his head, and said kindly to the young man on the right whose eyes were still red: "***, what just happened.
I heard you. Don't feel wronged, don't complain, and don't bear grudges against General Liu! When he scolds you, it's not because he has any objection to you, on the contrary, he is actually doing this to save you."
"Save me?" Hearing this word, the young recruit subconsciously looked up and looked around, only to find that everything was calm and there was no sign of danger. He couldn't help but look at Xiao Han with some doubts.
"Yes, saving you is also saving us all!" Xiao Han nodded, looked at the crowd with different expressions in front of him, and said in a slow and heavy voice: "The battlefield is dangerous! Any little thing that is not paid attention to may be
Ruin everyone's life! This is not my alarmist statement, but the experience gained by countless people with their lives!
You must remember that the real war does not refer to the moment of fighting, but it has already started after we leave the city! During this period, any tiny detail will affect the final success or failure of the war! And you
My life!
Maybe you will think that this place is still far away from the Turkic tribes, and it is impossible for them to find us, but have you ever thought about it? Those Turkic barbarians are not like us, staying in the city every day! Their daily life is to graze around
, hunting everywhere!
If they happened to be nearby and saw smoke rising, do you think those Turks would come over to find out?
And if they see us, will they send news to all the surrounding tribes?
This grassland is still Turkic, not ours! When the time comes, we will only have 300 people, how can we face thousands of Turks? Are we going to flee back in despair without fighting a single battle or killing anyone?
Shuofang? Are you willing to face the doubts of the whole city?"
"I...I just wanted to cook some hot food, and I didn't want to harm everyone! Really!"
The recruit's face turned pale at Xiao Han's words, and even his voice was filled with tears! The Huozhezi that was originally tightly clenched in his hand was thrown far away, as if it was a demon that could swallow them all!
Only by throwing them away can we save them.
"Don't worry, I don't blame you." Xiao Han saw the regret and fear on the young man's face, and his voice changed from harsh to gentle again. He turned his head and glanced at the thrown away Huozhezi. The alert Xiaodong immediately
Understanding, I ran over and picked it up.
Xiaodong took the fire dumpling back from Xiaodong's hand and played with it for a few times. Xiao Han's expression suddenly became solemn and he said to the recruits word for word: "As I said, now that we are here, you and I are brothers.
Your life is mine, and my life is also yours!
If you lack experience now, then learn! There are many veterans here, and their battlefield experience is even more abundant. As long as you are willing to learn, no one will refuse the professor! Pao Ze will always be your strongest support on the battlefield! We are your support,
You are also our support!"
After saying the last word, Xiao Han raised his hand and threw the fire seal to the recruit, stood up, hummed a song with a desolate melody, and strode away.
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, he repaired my sword and spear. I share the same enemy with you!"
How can I say that I have no clothes? I am in the same boat with you. When the king raised his army, he repaired my spear and halberd. I worked together with you!
How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same clothes with you. When the king raised his troops, he repaired my armor and soldiers. I will go with you!"
Xiaodong silently followed Xiao Han and stood up, walked two steps, then suddenly stopped, turned back amid the desolate singing, and smiled at the excited or silent recruits: "Did you hear clearly just now?
Remember to keep what the Marquis said in your heart! Don’t forget it!
My Marquis is not like those second-generation ancestors who rely on the family's blessings to dominate and prosper! He relied entirely on himself, step by step, from a small soldier to a high position as a general!
He has done things like charging a hundred cavalry against ten thousand enemies! He has also done things where a lone army frightened Wang Shichong, who had hundreds of thousands of troops, so that he did not dare to leave the city!
I'm not afraid to tell you that this time he wanted to lead a hundred or so of us in the war against the Turks! You should all know that we wiped out a Turkic tribe last time without any damage! The reason why the Marquis insists on leading you
, it is entirely because of your eagerness for revenge that I give you a chance!
Want to eat a hot meal? It really doesn’t matter! Tonight, we will capture the Turkic tribe in front. We will use their tents to light a fire, use their bones as frames, kill cattle and sheep, and eat whatever we want! Then
That’s what’s called a hero, that’s what’s called happiness!”
Xiaodong dropped these words and strode away without any regret, leaving only the recruits sitting there with blank eyes.

Ren Qing crossed his arms and looked at the situation here from a distance. He smiled at Xiao Han who was approaching and said softly: "That's right, but your follower seems to be better than you."
Xiao Han took out his boogers, flicked them, and then laughed shamelessly: "Nonsense, don't even look at who his boss is?!"
Ren Qing was immediately speechless.
Just after I praised this guy, he immediately started snarling like a scoundrel, making people want to dig a hole right there and bury him alive!
"Hey, where is Xiong Kaishan? Why didn't you see him?"
Xiao Han turned a blind eye to Ren Qing's face that looked like a scapegoat. He looked around and didn't see that majestic figure, so he asked in confusion.
"I went to patrol the surrounding areas with the scouts." Ren Qing took a deep breath and returned to his cold look before replying.
"He can also be a scout? With that kind of body?" Xiao Han felt as if he had a toothache when he heard this!
Just because Xiong Kaishan looks like Xiong Da, but they are two miles apart, don't they have to be discovered by others?
"Nonsense!" Ren Qing rolled his eyes at Xiao Han: "Although he is big, his hidden skills are not weaker than others! And with the bow you gave him, he can kill people even from a thousand steps away! Such a person cannot
Do you want to be a scout?"
Xiao Han's mouth twitched, and he smiled awkwardly after a while: "Hey, I won't do it..."
"If you don't do it, don't talk nonsense!" Ren Qing left angrily. This time, it was Xiao Han who touched the back of his head, frowning and wondering where he had offended this black-faced monster?
"Master Hou, the poem you just sang is so exciting! It's much better than Feng Dake. He will brag about your song 'The moonlight shines in front of the bed, and there are two pairs of shoes on the floor'. Do you think this one can do it?"
Teach me, let me, Old Liu, go back and show off in front of him!"
As soon as Ren Qing left, Liu Er rushed over, his face still full of flattery.
But his flattering skills are really terrible. He slaps the horse's hooves every time, and this time is no exception!
The word "go" with a long sound made Liu Er frown, squatting aside and drawing circles conscientiously.
