It was originally just a relaxing shopping trip, but he unexpectedly caught the "big fish" called Teacher Xiao He, which made Tang Dao feel extremely comfortable.
After walking out of the teahouse, he met the old servant who had brought Yue Yiman and Shitou brother and sister to go shopping. The usually cold and arrogant Shui Zi was also with him.
Seeing Tang Dao, Hammer might be a little surprised. Even his high tail drooped. When Tang Dao went out, he wanted to follow him, but Tang Dao drove him back to guard the door. Does this count as a violation of military orders?
But the three little kids ran over and bowed respectfully to Tang Dao, and then playfully let Tang Dao take them to play. Especially the three-year-old Ximei, who rushed over and hugged Tang Dao's thigh.
.
"Uncle, Ximei wants to eat cakes!" Ximei, who was picked up by Tang Dao with a laugh, put her fingers in her mouth and looked at the shops on the street intently, with saliva overflowing from the corners of her mouth.
Ximei was originally dark and thin due to malnutrition, but after following the independent camp for a month, in addition to drinking milk from the big black sheep every day, she also had white rice porridge and minced meat to replenish her body, although she was not much whiter.
, but that little face is visibly bulging.
It turned out that the tattered cotton-padded clothes he wore when he was with the army had been thrown away long ago. The cotton-padded clothes he bought at the market town he passed were a bit too big. Later, after Yue Yiman and his son arrived, the ingenious woman spent two nights pushing the little girl to the side.
The big cotton-padded clothes were changed to fit her, and she was given two braids every day. She also had a pair of big, watery eyes. Not to mention that several female nurses looked at her and couldn't help but want to kiss her. She was just a bunch of thick beauties.
The big men couldn't help but pinch her little face when they saw her. The little girl is definitely the favorite of the entire Four Elements Group now.
Otherwise, why would that guy Hammer not even look at the gate of the regiment headquarters and just follow this little guy like crazy?
As for the fact that she hugged Tang Dao's thigh and wanted to buy cakes to eat, I'm afraid the poor little girl was scared of hunger before and thought of eating as soon as she smelled the fragrance, even though there was already a lot of toffee in the little pocket on her chest.
That was a ration that many soldiers were reluctant to eat themselves, but they willingly stuffed it into this little girl's hand just because she shouted "Thank you uncle" in a milky voice.
Although Tang Dao was usually strict with the officers and soldiers, in private he had an extremely gentle temper. He was especially fond of the three children who were marching with the troops. He not only ordered Leng Feng to send the Shitou brothers and sisters and the black sheep that had given birth to a lamb.
The battalion headquarters also specially asked the baggage company to free up a cart to transport the three children and Yue Yiman's mother. The cart was covered with quilts, and the three children and a little lamb were on the marching road in the cold winter.
But it wasn't frozen at all.
Even Lei Xiong said that if Tang Dao gets married in the future, he must be an extremely gentle father. He said that no one like him who has been a father is as careful as Tang Dao. He said that Tantai Mingyue blushed and went straight to
Look at Tang Dao.
In the evening, the two of them had a private conversation by the woods behind everyone's back. A reporter from Tantai University shyly asked, "Do you prefer a son or a daughter?" Tang Dao casually said, "It is best for a daughter to be as cute as you."
, My son is as scoundrel as me!" Then, the pure love of the head of Tang Dynasty was one step closer.
From holding hands to hugging waist.
That waist is so thin! As soon as Tang Da Tuanzuo closed his eyes for several nights, the feeling of hugging that slender waist for the first time emerged. Then, when the 22-year-old young man woke up in the morning, it was tragic.
The firepower of a young body is really not something that an old soul can control.
The three children who have become playmates are already very familiar with Tang Dao, who they meet often. Except for Shitou who is a little scared because he saw Tang Dao's anger and cruelty that night, Yue Yiman, a five-year-old boy, and three-year-old Yue Yiman
Duo Ximei is very close to Tang Dao, who often gives them toffee.
"Haha, okay! Just ask Uncle Erya to buy it for you." Tang Dao smiled brightly. "Erya, go and use my military salary to buy some delicious food for the three little guys. However, you can't compete with the big guys.
It would be best if we could have some braised pork and come to Tantai in the evening, and our regiment team would add a meal."
"Okay!" Erya agreed, walking up and squeezing Ximei's chubby little face. "Ximei, Uncle Erya bought you delicious food, why don't you thank Uncle Erya?"
"That's Uncle Tang's money!" Ximei blinked and replied in a sweet voice.
This little girl was so naughty that both Tang Dao and Erya laughed.
"Captain Tang, congratulations on your promotion!" The old servant followed by the three little kids came over and congratulated Tang Dao with a smile.
"Uncle Han has been helping to take care of the stones during this time. Sister Xi, Tang Dao hasn't given the opportunity to thank you yet!" Tang Dao looked at the old servant, his eyes flashed slightly, and his face was full of smiles.
"It doesn't matter, Shitou is kind and kind, Ximei is cute, Master Yue is very happy to get along with them, and the old servant is very comforted in his heart!" The old servant surnamed Han waved his hands and looked at the Shitou brothers and sisters.
It is loving kindness and gentleness.
What he said was actually the truth.
Although Yue Yiman is only five years old, he may have had a very strict upbringing since he was a child, and he just experienced the pain of losing his father not long ago. He is very polite and well-behaved with everyone he meets, but he is a bit too mature for his age.
, losing a lot of the innocence and liveliness that a five-year-old child should have.
When Shitou and Ximei saw Tang Dao, they quickly ran over and bowed to him with Yue Yiman. I'm afraid it was this little guy who taught them, otherwise two little guys who grew up in the mountains would not know this.
However, the effect is always mutual. After half a month of getting along with the two "wild children" from the village and this child who grew up in a scholarly family, Yue Yiman has become worse than when Tang Dao first met him.
A bit naughty.
Once after the army was stationed in the field, Yue Yiman was instigated by Shitou and went with him to catch fish in a small river outside the station in order to make a bowl of fish soup for his frail mother.
It's never a good idea to catch fish in the cold weather, even in a small ditch with water no deeper than knee-deep. It doesn't matter if you don't catch a few fish, but it hurts the hands, feet, and faces of the two little guys.
They were turned red from the cold and suffered from wind chill the next day. Such medicines were scarce in the military medical department of the independent camp. It was the old servant named Han who found some herbs in the mountains and boiled them to cure the two naughty guys.
.
For this reason, the woman wanted to punish her son with family law after he recovered from the illness. The reason was that he did not know how to cause trouble for the army during the march, or the old servant named Han found Tantai Mingyue and moved the Tang Dao.
Dao came forward and said that children should be naughty at their age, and that five-year-old children were spared a stir-fried shredded pork with bamboo strips.
"Uncle Tang, the weather is so good today, can I take Mandi to hunt rabbits in the wild? Hammer and Uncle Han are following us, we will definitely catch them. Mandi and I will treat the uncles and uncles to eat rabbit meat tonight."
Shi Shi saw that Tang Dao was in a good mood today, so he came over to ask for it.
"Is there any meat to eat?" The little girl who just looked at the various foods in the surrounding shops was drooling and couldn't help but put another finger into her mouth.
That greedy little look is not only cute, but also heartbreaking.
If we look to the future, if someone of this age hears that rabbits are to be hunted for meat, they will most likely say: "Rabbits are so cute, why should we eat them?"
But in this era, as long as they can fill their stomachs, young children will never have such useless thoughts.
"Let's hunt rabbits!" Tang Dao looked up at the sky. It was still early in the evening. He then looked at Yue Yiman, who was silent but full of expectation, and the little girl who had started to drool as she fantasized about the delicious rabbit meat. He couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay! Anyway, Uncle Tang and I have nothing to do today, so I will go hunting with you guys!"
When the little guys saw that Tang Dao not only agreed, but even wanted to go with them, they couldn't help but cheer.
Shitou is from the mountains, and it was not just a whim that he wanted to take Yue Yiman to hunt rabbits in the wild, but it was indeed a good time to hunt rabbits.
Winter is the season with the least food. In order to survive the winter safely, hares usually use the fat they eat in autumn to strengthen their bodies. Therefore, hares in winter are the fattest and have the thickest fur.
"You guys wait a moment. I'll make arrangements and ask them to bring some horses. Since we're going to hunt, let's hunt a few more. Let's have a tooth ceremony together tonight." Tang Dao put down Ximei and patted her.
With his little face, he motioned for him to go to his brothers first.
Then I looked around and saw Potato with many bags hanging on his body, sweating profusely, squeezing out of a shop, saying to the old servant named Han: "Uncle Han, please wait a moment!", and then strode over.
.
The old servant named Han nodded and said nothing more.
This is normal. For a colonel like Tang Dao, who commands an army of more than 2,000 people, it is abnormal to abandon the army and take a few children to hunt without explaining anything. Besides, it is possible to use
It’s time to load up your firearms! More than 2,000 members of the Si Xing Regiment are stationed around the town. If the sentry is alerted and hundreds of people rush over, but they see their leader hunting rabbits, isn’t that a joke?
Of course Potato is here to buy things, but he may be the only soldier who doesn't have to say goodbye.
The infantry company he belongs to is basically still in the hospital bed of the medical team when it can breathe!
It has been almost a month since the Battle of Mouse Mountain. Most of the brothers who were seriously injured in that battle have recovered. Even those who lost their legs and arms, after spending the difficult time of seeking life and death, they are now recovering.
Being able to eat, sleep and scold his mother, Tudou, who received part of the bonus, thought of taking this opportunity to buy some delicious food and go to the medical team to satisfy the cravings of these old brothers. He even secretly bought a small jar of wine.
Just wait until the evening to give each of those greedy old brothers a bite.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he violated military discipline, he was stopped by a man in the street. When he looked closely, he saw that it was Tang Dao who was still wearing civilian clothes, which almost turned poor Tudou's little face into the color of potato.
It wasn't until Tang Dao grabbed him and asked him to help go to the regiment headquarters to inform the matter that he finally recovered.
Cut the grain
"Have you remembered everything I said?" Tang Dao confessed more than Tudou expected. He tried his best to repeat what Tang Dao said several times in his mind, and then nodded fiercely.
"Okay, go quickly! Also remember to ask Lu Sanjiang to bring me two carbines when he sends three war horses." Tang Dao patted Tudou on the shoulder and sniffed slightly. "Also, don't you buy the wine for your child?
What, tell your brothers, wait until you get to Xuzhou and watch me buy some good wine for the brothers to drink."
Tudou ran away without looking back.
If he didn't run away, he was afraid of being whipped. That was a ruthless leader who would even whip himself. It didn't matter if he was whipped, but if those brothers and uncles who were still half-lying were whipped, they would be dead.
Tudou, who was eager to escape Tang Dao's sight, reported the news very quickly. Within a quarter of an hour, Lu Sanjiang and two cavalrymen each rode a war horse and trotted over. They dismounted and gave Tang Dao a military salute, then handed the reins to Tang Dao, "
Regiment leader, do you want a cavalry company to escort you?"
"There are no Japanese here. I'm going to hunt rabbits and I have to protect an egg! Why, there are tigers here!" Tang Dao waved his hand.
Lu Sanjiang glanced at the old servant named Han who took the reins on the other side, "But"
Obviously, Lu Sanjiang, the cavalry company commander, felt that the old man surnamed Han was an outsider and had nothing to do with him at the station. However, Tang Dao was still worried about leaving the station.
"But what the hell, I just say it's okay!" Tang Dao glared.
Lu Sanjiang could only put his legs together: "Yes!"
He turned around and left with his two soldiers.
"Uncle Han, don't be surprised. These soldiers under my command are straightforward." Tang Dao smiled at the old servant named Han who was suspected by the cavalry company commander.
"Commander Tang's words are serious. I can only say that Commander Tang is very popular among the officers and soldiers in the army. With such an integrated body of officers and soldiers, it's no wonder that he has repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats!" The old servant surnamed Han looked kind and showed no signs of surprise.
"Is there any problem with Uncle Han riding a horse?"
"I rode horses when I was young, traveling around the world, but I haven't ridden a war horse much!" the old servant surnamed Han replied.
"Then let's set off!" Tang Dao leaned down and hugged Ximei, put one hand on the saddle, put one foot on the stirrup, and with a slight exertion, he got on the horse.
He put Ximei in front of him, clamped his legs slightly, and then walked along the long street towards the outside of the town with small steps.
"Ride a big horse! Brother, Brother Man, come quickly!" Ximei, who was riding a horse for the first time, clapped her little hands happily.
Erya has never ridden a horse before, but since she became Tang Dao's orderly, she has ridden this horse a lot. Although she can't charge at full speed like the cavalry, it still doesn't matter if she rides a horse and advances at a medium speed. First,
He put the stone on the saddle, then sat on it. As soon as he let go of the reins, the horse and the two ran after Tang Dao.
"Grandpa Han, you should hurry up! Brother Shitou and Sister Ximei have run far away." Yue Yiman, who had not yet mounted his horse, couldn't help but urged him anxiously as he saw that the two horses had already run more than 20 meters away.
However, the old servant surnamed Han smiled slightly, held the child in his arms, put his feet in the stirrups, and with a little effort, he got on the horse. The ease with which he was in his fifties and sixties did not match his age at all.
If you look closely at the way his body rises and falls with the trotting horse, you should be able to tell that his knowledge of equestrian skills is by no means something he only experienced riding in his youth, as he said.
At least, he is better than the half-bucket water Erya in front of him and even Tang Dao who is proficient in equestrian skills.
However, Tang Dao, who was riding in the lead, seemed to turn a blind eye to this phenomenon.
The landform of Lingbi County is commonly known as "big flat and small flat", which means that the overall landform is plain. In fact, there are many isolated hills and slopes in the interior. The famous Battle of Haixia took place here.
This place has not yet been affected by the war, and the grain in the fields has been harvested. From a glance, it looks empty and desolate. But only when you get closer to these relatively fertile lands, you will know that in spring, there will be hope of green here again.
However, Tang Dao knew better that the Japanese army's front would soon point here. Within a month, this place would become a battlefield, and another battle would begin here.
The war will sweep through most of China's most fertile lands in the next two years.
After all, the three children had no experience of riding horses, so Tang Dao and the others suppressed the speed of the horses and advanced in the fields at a medium to low speed. But this was the first time in their lives for the three children, and even the cold wind that hit their faces was unbearable.
I don't feel cold anymore.
Hammer also seemed very excited, jumping into the fields and jumping onto the field ridge. Since joining the army, Hammer may have rarely had such a relaxing moment!
After running for nearly 40 minutes, Tang Dao stopped at the foot of a small hill.
It was said that they were hunting, but in fact it was just a performance by Hammer. Hammer, who had hunting experience in the mountains, quickly found a rabbit hole in a deserted grassland. Erya was holding Ximei, and Yue Yiman was under the command of Shitou.
He started pulling hay to make a fire and filling the two rabbit holes he found with smoke, while the hammer watched eagerly from the side.
Sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, a plump rabbit jumped out of another hole more than ten meters away, and Hammer, who had been waiting for it, chased after it.
The hammer that could kill a wolf and a green dog was not only physically strong, but also had an astonishing running ability. He bit a rabbit before chasing it 30 meters, and came back to ask for credit from the three children.
"The hammer is awesome!"
"Long live the hammer!"
"Reward for rabbit legs tonight!"
The three children happily jumped up to praise Hammer, and Ximei even used her little hands to rub Hammer's neck.
The hammer is so beautiful, with a long grin and a long tongue.
Tang Dao couldn't help but laugh.
No wonder Hammer gets along so well with these three little dogs. No matter how awesome the dog is, it still needs someone to pamper it!
The Four Elements Group is full of iron-blooded soldiers, and the way to express their love is to give them food. At most, they can rub the dog's head as hard as Li Jiujin did. However, unlike these three little ones, they not only praise wildly, but also fight with their little hands.
If you pet the dog, I'm afraid the Tibetan Mastiff will become gentle in front of them!
The first trophy was obtained in less than a quarter of an hour. Naturally, the three children became more confident. After hanging the dead hare on the horse, they followed the hammer to search farther away.
With Erya following and Hammer there, Tang Dao was naturally not worried. He led the three horses to a slope with some grass and let them graze on the hillside. He turned back and said to the old servant named Han who was watching the children from a distance.
: "Uncle Han, don't worry, just let them play here for a while, and you can take a rest too."
The old servant surnamed Han smiled slightly when he heard this. Cong Yuan looked back at Tang Dao, with a half-smile on his face.
"Captain Tang, what do you want to know? You might as well just say it, it's quite quiet here." ...
