Fang Wei put in a lot of effort,
It made Ming Ming not look too stupid,
And the tall man who could write a few words understood his intention. The tall man looked at him and Fang Mo for a while and turned around with the donkey,
He said in a muffled voice, "I can't make this decision,
You guys come with me to see the general! "
He then ordered someone to push their cart,
He led the donkey and led the people in front.
He muttered in a low voice, "There are two more people to share the meat..."
The soldier beside him complained in a low voice, "Boss, you shouldn't be so tactful. To deal with such little guys, you should just scare them and send them back!"
The tall man said angrily, "If you can do it, why don't you do it?"
The young soldier mumbled, "Isn't that … a donkey that he was leading? I can't bring myself to do it! "
"..."
They thought that no one would hear them whispering,
But they didn't know that the two "little guys" behind them heard it clearly.
Fang Mo, who had been holding back her laughter until her stomach hurt, finally couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed out loud,
Fang Wei looked at him helplessly,
His teeth itched from gritting them,
He made a mental note of Big Tall in his heart.
The camp of the self-proclaimed "Changsha Army" was not far away,
They arrived after walking three miles,
But if it weren't for the tall man's explanation, the two of them really wouldn't have known that this place was the Changsha Army's camp,
And not a refugee's nest,
No wonder their eyes were green from hunger.
There were only three to four hundred people in the camp, and there was no drill,
They just sat and chatted. When they saw the tall man come back, they all smiled and greeted him,
They were even more enthusiastic about the donkey in his hand,
Their eyes were wide open,
The tall man slapped away the hands of a few people who coveted his donkey and shouted, "General! There are two silly boys who want to be soldiers no matter what, I brought them back! "
The tall man, who was sitting under the shade with his back to them and talking with a group of people, scolded without turning his head, "Be a damn soldier, tell them that we don't accept people here!"
The tall man turned around and glanced at Fang Mo and Fang Wei, who were following behind the group. He trotted to the man's side and whispered in his ear for a while. The tall man glared at him fiercely, then turned to look at Fang Mo and Fang Wei, and said angrily, "Follow me!"
They took the lead and went into a simple and somewhat tattered tent.
As soon as Fang Mo and Fang Wei entered, they saw a tall man with a messy beard sitting cross-legged on the ground. He beckoned them to sit down and said, "Look, you saw it too. Our Changsha Army is like this. We don't have enough to eat or warm clothes. When we fight, we don't even have enough armor or weapons, let alone armor. This is really not a place for you children to play in. Listen to me, go home. If you need to farm, go home. If you need to study, don't just make do here!" ........ "..
. ".....". "...."
He fumbled in his pocket for a while and painfully took out an ingot of silver, saying, "Here, I'll buy it from you!".
Seeing that the two of them were unmoved by his silver, the tall man's outstretched hand froze for a while before sighing and reaching into his pocket. He gritted his teeth and took out another ingot, "Fine, I'll give this to you too. This should be enough, right?"
Fang Wei and Fang Mo looked at him without saying a word.
The bearded man pulled his hair in frustration. He slammed the table and waved his hand, "Fine, fine! Fine, I'm scared of you, okay? Take that donkey away, take it away, take it away! "
Fang Wei and Fang Mo looked at each other and said, "But it's so chaotic outside. Even if we take the donkey away, it will be snatched away in less than ten li."
Fang Mo said, "If we can go home and study, why would we come here?"
The bearded man glared at them and said, "Then what do you want to do?"
Fang Wei said, "Join the army."
Fang Mo said, "Fight."
The bearded man's eyes widened. Just as he was about to speak, there was a low shout from outside, "The military advisor is back!"
There was a flurry of movement outside. The bearded man also stood up and rushed out of the tent. He put his hand on the hilt of his sword and began patrolling.
Fang Mo and Fang Wei followed the bearded general out of the tent and were immediately dumbstruck. They saw that the several hundred Changsha soldiers, who had been scattered all over the place, were all holding sabers and spears and practicing with great vigor. Even the tall man who had been sharpening his saber and preparing to slaughter the donkey had thrown away his sharp saber and jumped up to grab a long spear to practice.
Fang Wei and Fang Mo looked at each other and took out their swords and sabers from the straw in the carriage. They stood beside the tall man with a smile and began to practice.
The tall man whispered, "Did the general agree?"
Fang Wei also lowered his voice and said, "Yes!"
The tall man said with a bitter face, "No way? What can you two little guys do? "
Fang Wei said in all seriousness, "I told the general that Little Mo and I can cook. Then the general agreed to let us be cooks!"
The tall man scratched his head and said, "Are you kidding me? We don't have cooks here …"
Fang Mo said, "Not just the two of us, but also our little donkey general. It's now part of the supply army."
The tall man's eyes widened and he stammered, "Can't, can't we eat it?"
Fang Mo nodded seriously. "You can't eat it!"
The tall man suddenly looked as if his parents had died. He poked the spear in his hand weakly and did not even want to say a word.
Fang Wei winked at Fang Mo proudly. Fang Mo smiled and stabbed his sword at his shoulder from a distance. Fang Wei raised his hand and pretended to use the hilt of his saber to knock his sword. Fang Mo lowered his sword and slashed it at Fang Wei's wrist. Fang Wei swept his saber horizontally and raised his leg to kick his lower abdomen.
The two of them exchanged blows across the air, and their moves changed extremely quickly. Often, the opponent only needed to move his wrist to know what the other was going to do next, and his moves would change accordingly. Therefore, every move only had one starting position. In the eyes of the bystanders, the two of them were completely insincerely gesturing blindly, so much so that even the tall man couldn't bear to watch. He said in a low voice, "Hey, be more serious! The military advisor is watching! "
Fang Wei and Fang Mo agreed and ignored the other party. They gesticulated on their own, but their gazes were looking at the entrance. They saw a thin middle-aged scholar in his forties hurrying over with two well-dressed bodyguards. The middle-aged scholar passed through the crowd and went straight to the tent. The two bodyguards stopped and said, "Thirty people come with us to bring in supplies!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd. More than fifty people rushed out like a swarm of bees. The tall man was the first to throw down his gun and run out. The bearded general shouted for a while and scolded half of the people back. Only then did he follow the military advisor into the tent.
The remaining people were no longer in the mood to cultivate. They gesticulated and stretched their heads out to look outside.
Fang Wei moved closer and said, "The situation doesn't look too good."
Fang Mo nodded. The tent was very quiet. The bearded general and the military advisor were both around the second rank. No matter how sensitive his five senses were, it was useless for them to communicate through telepathy.
The supply team had been gone for almost two hours. The water in the camp had already boiled and was waiting for them. However, they lived up to everyone's expectations. Not only did they bring back large amounts of rice, flour, and salted vegetables, but they also brought back vegetables and meat.
Of course, these precious vegetables and meat couldn't be wasted carelessly. Under the strong recommendation of the tall man, the small team leader in charge of the supplies meticulously divided up today's portion. Together with all sorts of things that were collected or confiscated, they were handed over to the two team leaders of the entire army.
As a result, Fang Wei naturally assumed the role of head chef and ordered the dozens of people around. Fang Mo, on the other hand, was gloriously promoted to head chef.
Fang Wei wasn't bragging when he said that his cooking was delicious. They had been self-reliant since young. Not to mention Fang Mo, who was never willing to let herself be wronged, even Fang Wei had developed a good culinary skill under Fang Mo's fussiness. It was too easy to deal with this group of people who hadn't eaten for a long time.
The two of them crouched on the ground and chatted happily with the group of soldiers who were eating. The bearded general, who was also holding a large bowl, came over and quickly drove everyone away. He squatted down beside the two of them and picked out the few pieces of meat in the bowl, throwing them into Fang Mo's bowl. Only then did he bury his head in the bowl and start eating.
He finished more than half of the large bowl of rice and vegetables in a few bites. Only then did the bearded general sigh in satisfaction and say, "Little fellow, you've never suffered before, have you?"
Fang Mo said, "I did when I was young."
The bearded general had an 'I knew it' look on his face. He patted his head clumsily with his right hand and sighed, "If my daughter were alive, she would be about the same age as you. She's even more tender than you. Since she was young, I've never let her suffer any hardships … Listen to my advice. The two of you should leave early tomorrow morning. I'll ask someone to pack some food for you. You should find a place to hide first. When the fatuous ruler dies, you can come out and live a peaceful life. Isn't that great?"
Fang Mo looked up at him and asked, "Will there be peace after the fatuous ruler is dead?"
The bearded general waved his hand and said, "Of course. He's the worst person in the world. Of course there will be peace after he's dead!"
Fang Wei chuckled. This fellow was obviously being coaxed like a child.
Fang Mo glared at him. His dark eyes looked at the bearded general and said, "Don't lie to me. I've read a lot of books."
The bearded general felt a little guilty under his stare. He chuckled and said, "Why would I? I've never lied to a child."
Fang Wei laughed again. Fang Mo couldn't be bothered with him and asked, "General, are you going to war tomorrow?"
The bearded general was stunned. Fang Mo continued, "Are you going to be the vanguard, bait, or something more dangerous?"
The bearded general looked at him blankly. Fang Mo nodded and said, "It seems to be the latter."
The bearded general was dumbfounded. He stammered, "Are … are all those who have read books so powerful?"
Fang Wei said, "There should be a lot of food that needs thirty people to transport. Now that all the volunteer armies have gathered, the local families that can provide so much food have already found their own backers. They won't think much of the general. Moreover, the military counselor only brought two people. It should be a negotiation, not a threat. He successfully brought back a large amount of food, but he didn't look happy. He didn't even have the mood to eat …"
