Chapter 1140

Li An does not plan to go back to Xiazhou City to eat a banquet, that kind of banquet is not interesting, or in the old city of Shiben such an environment to eat and drink more meaningful, here is the Han Dynasty left over from the ancient city of Biansai, there must have been a lot of stories back then, although it is dilapidated, but it has an unusual cultural atmosphere, in the ruins of the ancient city to eat meat and drink, this feeling is definitely more interesting than staying in the tall buildings in the city, it is a kind of involuntary heroic feelings.

"In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned, but the dragon city will fly in, and Hu Ma will not be taught to do Yin Mountain."

Guo Ziyi opened her mouth and recited a poem of the Tang Dynasty, which was written by the great poet Wang Changling decades ago, this is a very famous poem, especially in the era of the Tang Dynasty, the influence of this poem is very great, and all the literati of the Tang Dynasty do not know, if they have not even heard of this poem, then they are ashamed to say that they are a reader.

The idea reflected in this heroic poem is that the poet hopes to be appointed as a good general, to quell the war in Biansai at an early date, and to enable the people to live a stable life.

The description of the scenery at the beginning makes people feel a desolate scene of the cold moon shining on the border pass at a glance, which makes people sigh, and the expectation of a famous general like Li Guang is also to make the border pass stable.

The whole poem is full of pride, full of contempt for the enemy, loyalty to the imperial court, and a kind of courageous and fearless spirit, which is very in line with the scenery here, which makes Ang Lee feel very appropriate.

"Good, good poem, what a good poem! Wang Changling's poem is the best and most heroic one he has ever made, and there is no one. ”

Li Ang opened his mouth to praise, and at the same time told the soldiers that this poem is not Guo Ziyi's original work, and it can also show his cultural level.

"General, we've heard this poem many times, what does it mean?"

A soldier asked, and a divine mending knife came.

Guo Ziyi replied with a smile: "It doesn't mean anything, probably because I, Guo Ziyi, are stationed in Xiazhou, and the Hu people in the north don't dare to go south to be presumptuous, haha!" ”

Li An felt that Lao Guo was deliberately misinterpreted, in order to improve the morale and pride of the soldiers under his command, but this is also good, and the meaning is similar anyway.

"Let me explain the specific meaning, the literal meaning of this poem is that it is still the bright moon of the Qin Dynasty, the border pass of the Han Dynasty, the conquest lasted for a long time, and the conquest did not return for thousands of miles, if the general Wei Qing and the border general Li Guang who captured the Xiongnu Dragon City were still there, the Huns would never be allowed to go south to herd horses through the Yin Mountain, of course, I have generals like General Guo in the Tang Dynasty, and I will not let Hu Ma go south, the current horse thieves are just small thieves, it is not enough at all, I believe it will not be long before it will be exterminated."

Ang Lee opened his mouth to explain.

"Yes, exterminate the horse thief and protect my rivers and mountains."

"Exterminate the ...... horse thieves"

The morale of the soldiers was high.

"Lao Guo, the morale of these soldiers of yours is very high! Among them, will there be bandits' eyeliner? ”

Ang Lee asked.

Guo Ziyi immediately denied: "No, absolutely not, these soldiers are all my personal soldiers, they have been transferred from Lingzhou, and they have only been for a few months, they are usually mainly training, and they rarely have contact with the outside world, and they will definitely not become the eyeliner of horse thieves, which can be assured." ”

Li An nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll be relieved, haha!" The food is almost here. ”

Not far away, more than a dozen cavalrymen were rushing quickly, and it could be seen from the speed of their gallop that they were carrying a lot of wine and food, otherwise they would not be so slow.

Generally, the scale of the restaurant in the suburbs is not very large, and there are not many chefs, but there are three or five are already a lot, generally one or two cooks, and the total number of operators is about five people, which is the most common situation.

After all, the flow of people in the suburbs is too low, and if the scale of the restaurant is too large, it is also a waste of resources, and it is most suitable to open a minimum restaurant.

The small scale of the restaurant is destined to not have too many tricks inside, and even the storage of food will not be too much, after all, once it is not consumed, it will be wasted.

"There are five or six fewer people, and it seems that there are still drinks and food being cooked!"

Guo Ziyi glanced at it and said.

There is no stove here in the old city, and there are no pots and pans, it is inconvenient to cook, and it is most convenient to send the meal to the hotel to the hotel, and the number of soldiers is too much, a small restaurant must be difficult to prepare enough meals, and the only way to make a new one on the spot is so, there are soldiers waiting.

Soon a dozen cavalrymen arrived, and most of the supplies they brought were wine, and there were very few meals, and from a distance it was all wine jars.

"General, there are not many meals in the hotel, and they are still cooking, but the drinks are really enough, as many as you want, and there are a few waiting for the new dishes, let's come back and deliver the wine first."

A soldier reported.

The shape of these wine jars is different, some are large and rough, and some are very smooth, which shows that the wine contained in them is also different, some are high-grade wine, and some are lower-grade wine, the total number is indeed relatively large, and there is no problem for three hundred soldiers to drink together, in addition, almost every soldier has a small amount of water and wine, so the wine is enough.

As for the food, it was a little less, but it would be replenished later, and the soldiers also had some dry food on their bodies, and these small amounts of dry food were enough to eat a meal.

Like this kind of small restaurant outside the city, the quality of the meals does not need to be expected to be too high, and the types of meals will not be many, it is good to have more than a dozen home-cooked side dishes, because it is close to the grassland, so the mutton is definitely available, and the price is generally not expensive, much cheaper than the mutton in the capital, and the beef is also sold, at this time, Datang's control over cultivated cattle has begun to loosen, especially on the grasslands on the northern border, there are many herdsmen who breed cattle, so in the cities of the northern border, eating beef has begun to be legalized. No one will hold the people who eat beef accountable, and in other places, as long as the beef is said to be beef cattle on the grassland, no one will generally ask, especially the restaurant with the background, even if the cattle are killed every day, no one will ask, but with the convenience of transportation, the beef transported from the northern grassland is cheaper and tastes better, while the price of local cattle is relatively high, so the restaurant is naturally more willing to buy beef cattle from the grassland, so the cost will be lower.

Sure enough, the side dishes handed over, including beef and mutton, as well as chicken and a few kinds of marinated vegetables, are all cold dishes cut into plates, and there is no hot dish, after all, hot dishes take time to prepare, and it is difficult to prepare them in a short time.

"Come on, come on, now that the food and drinks are all ready, let's eat!"

Li An opened his mouth and said, let the soldiers have dinner here.

Because there are not many side dishes, it is difficult to meet everyone's needs, so only the main characters can get them, and most of the ordinary soldiers can only eat the dry food they carry with them, but fortunately, the soldiers are used to it and will not feel hard.

Eating and drinking in the ruins of the old city is a very good feeling, although there are always crows croaking next to it, but this does not affect Li An to eat meat and drink, just treat these crows as singing.

"Hold the bow as strong, and use the arrow as the long. Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king. There is a limit to killing, and the nations have their own borders. If you can control the invasion of the mausoleum, how can you kill more? The bright moon rises out of the Tianshan Mountains, and the vast sea of clouds. The long wind is tens of thousands of miles, blowing the Yumen Pass. Hanxia Baideng Road, Hu peep into Qinghai Bay. came to the battlefield, but no one returned. The soldiers looked at the border towns, and thought about how bitter they were. High-rise buildings are at this night, sighing is not idle. ”

After a lieutenant drank a few glasses of wine, he memorized the poem, and he didn't memorize a word, which shows that he is still a literate person, and it is good for ordinary soldiers to memorize the first two sentences, and the latter must not be remembered, and this captain can remember so much, it can be seen that he is a cultural person.

And the poem he recited, is a poem made by Du Fu a few years ago, and it is also a very famous poem, among them, the second sentence shoots the man first and shoots the horse first, and captures the thief and captures the king first, which is known as a famous sentence through the ages, not only popular in the literary society, but also has a high reference value in the actual combat military.

When many people in later generations were fighting, they often blurted out a sentence that is, capture the thief and capture the king first, this sentence is too famous, and the person who put forward this famous sentence is not a famous military strategist, but the Du editor-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty, Du Da Poet, which is very surprising.

"Editor-in-chief Du's stopper song, what a poem! Whoever else can recite poetry, let's talk about it! ”

Li An said.

"Qinghai Changyun Dark Snow Mountain, the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass from afar, the yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned if it is not broken."

One of the lieutenants spoke.

"Good, good poetry, good poetry!"

This poem is also a poem written by Wang Changling, it is a very heroic poem, it is said that from a distance from the lonely city of the border fortress, from Qinghai Lake through Qilian Mountain to Yumen Pass, this border defense line, the sky is densely covered with clouds, the beacon smoke is billowing, the silver-covered snow-capped mountains are suddenly bleak, in the desolate desert, because of the many battles, the soldiers have experienced a hundred battles, and even the iron helmets and iron armor on their bodies are worn out, but as long as the border troubles have not been cleared, they will never disarm and return to their hometowns.

Through this poem, we can see the bravery and tenacity of the Tang border guards, in the face of strong enemies from the outside world, the Tang soldiers did not have the slightest fear, through the brave battles again and again, defended the dignity of the Tang Empire, so that the distant enemy was impressed by the Tang Empire, especially the last sentence, Loulan will not be returned if it is not broken, showing the perseverance and perseverance of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, as long as the enemy is not defeated, he will never mention going home, and he must resolutely fight to the end.

"Who else can recite poetry, don't stop! Continue to chant the poem. ”

Lao Guo said while drinking.

"The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, a lonely city and ten thousand mountains. Why should Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring light is not the jade gate. ”

One of the soldiers began to read.

It can be seen that the average cultural level of these soldiers under Lao Guo is very good, and there are so many people who can compose poems, which is very rare in the Tang Empire, which is not very popular.

And the literal meaning of this poem is very simple, what it says is that the Yellow River seems to be rushing from among the white clouds, and the Yumen Pass towers lonely in the high mountains. Why should the soldiers complain that the willow tree does not sprout, and the spring breeze cannot blow outside the Yumen Pass.

The poem is preceded by a sentence to write the scene, which makes people yearn for the spectacular scenery of the border pass at a glance, and the latter sentence is a little sad, the Qiang flute is a kind of musical instrument left in the border area, when a soldier on the border leaves his hometown to join the army, what he hears is the willow branch track blown away by the Qiang flute, and then in the heartbreaking music, he bids farewell to his relatives and embarks on a long journey, and in the process of the border, as long as he blows this tune, they seem to immediately appear in front of the tears of his wife and children, and the sad face of his mother.

The spring breeze does not pass the Yumen Pass, it hides the meaning of irony, the surface meaning of the saying is a natural phenomenon, the spring wind blows can not reach the Yumen Pass, and the actual thing is that the court's concern does not reach the border area, that is, the court rulers in the capital do not care much about the life of the husband in the border area, and do not give a little warmth to the soldiers who are far away in the Yumen Pass and guarding the frontier.

In addition to being domineering, this poem has more of a touch of irony, satirizing that the rulers of the current dynasty did not pay more attention to the soldiers at the border gates, but on the whole it is still a good poem, which is easy to cause people's reflection, especially the reflection of the ruling group.

The cultural level of the soldiers under Lao Guo is really good, and the ancient poems recited are one after another, as if they are all cultural people.

"Lao Guo, these soldiers under your command are amazing! Everyone can recite poetry, which is too high! I don't know, I still think it's all the schoolchildren of Guozijian? ”

Ang Lee said with a smile.

"Where, where, they can recognize a few words, it's not just blind, they can't compare to the schoolchildren of Guozijian, they are all the pillars of the Tang Dynasty!"

Lao Guo said modestly.

Soon, the hot dishes were also delivered, these are just made by the restaurant, because the distance is not far, after being delivered, it is still warm, and even steaming?

"Quack ......"

Maybe it's because the hot food is too fragrant, and the crows in the nearby trees are all crying greedily, and they seem to want to come over to get a piece of the pie, but because there are people below, they are embarrassed to come down, but if Li An and the others leave, if there are some leftovers left, they will definitely come down and fight.

"Look, what the crows on this branch have become of hunger, do you want to give them some too?"

Ang Lee said jokingly.

"Haha! Leftovers will leave them with some scraps, and by the way, they will also be given a drink, these beasts like to drink the most. ”

"Do crows drink? Is this true? By the way, how much does the crow drink? ”

Li An thought it was interesting and asked curiously.

"Oh, not only does this beast drink, but it's not a low amount of alcohol? I can drink until I can't drink anymore, and I've never been drunk. ”

Guo Ziyi said seriously.
