Qinggang Gorge, the important place of Huanling Avenue, is also the boundary between Huanqing Road and Dangxiang in the Song Dynasty, not far from the south of Weizhou. After capturing Weizhou, Cui Xuan sent troops and horses to occupy this place. Wait until the soldiers and horses from Huanzhou come, and then return to the station.

It was almost evening, and several Song army generals were drinking in the walled hall. In the middle of a bonfire was a sheep on top of it, which was already roasted to a crisp tenderness, and several people drank wine and ate meat at the same time. Five women stood beside him, pouring wine and serving him food.

Bu Sheng took a big bite of meat, chewed in his mouth, took a sip of wine, and said: "Straight lady thief, this village is poor, and the village hall is a leaky house, I don't know how these party members get by." It's our hard life to come to this kind of place! The brothers in Weizhou, who are well fed and clothed, live comfortably, do not know how happy they are! The birds on Huanqing Road are not coming soon, they are really a bunch of waste! ”

Chang Qiang on the side said: "Don't tell me, it's really not easy to go down this trip." Tens of thousands of soldiers are the hardest of us, and they came to Qinggang Gorge. The party soldiers here are poor, and they have captured the stockade, and they have no money. ”

Ye Jian said: "It's always us who wins, so why bother to complain." Ten years ago, when fighting in this area, the soldiers and horses of this dynasty were defeated many times. In the end, he couldn't fight, so he negotiated peace with the party. Although it is hard now, it is a great luck to win the battle, and it is fortunate that there are no people and horses. ”

Bu Sheng said: "What are you talking about? How can it be compared to 10 years ago! Now we have guns and cannons, and the battle is lined up, and the party members can't rush forward at all, of course, they will win every battle! In the past few months, it was all because the army was too slow, otherwise they would have arrived in Lingzhou early and would be free in that big city! ”

Chang Qiang said: "What the commander said is that now the party members are vulnerable, and this battle is too easy to win!" ”

While admonishing each other to drink, several people were eating meat and gossiping, and they were very happy.

Raising the bowl and drinking the wine inside, Bu Sheng squinted his eyes and said to the woman behind him: "Come and pour the wine!" You're our captives now, and you don't have a long look! provoked grandpa's sex and stabbed him! ”

The woman trembled with fright, and hurriedly stepped forward and raised the flask to pour wine for Bu Sheng. Not wanting to shake my hands, a lot of wine was poured out of the bowl.

Bu Sheng got angry for a while, threw the woman to the ground, and said sharply: "It's so unfavorable to do things, aren't you dissatisfied?" Grandpa slashed you with a knife and gave you a hard time! ”

Just as he was about to draw his sword, a woman next to him stepped forward, helped the woman on the ground up, and said, "Why should the general be annoyed? The weather is cold, and the four ladies wear little, so it is inevitable to shiver. Sprinkle some wine, and it's worth something. ”

Bu Sheng was about to fight with the others, but when he looked up, he saw that this woman had a fair complexion and a handsome appearance, and she turned out to be a little beauty. At this time, after drinking a stomach of wine, his heart was on fire, so he didn't pull out his knife, pulled the woman over, and said, "I can't see clearly in front of me, but I didn't find that there is a beauty like you in this village." Come, have a few glasses of wine with grandpa, and get a good night's sleep tonight! ”

The woman said: "General, I am the family of the owner of the village, even if I am defeated, I can't let people mess around like this!" ”

Bu Sheng laughed when he heard this: "Your husband is already my prisoner, why don't you let him defend himself?" Tomorrow I will cut him down, and you will become a widow without a husband, and you will come home with me to be a concubine. The days in this village are so hard, but you can get by. ”

As he spoke, he pulled the woman into his arms, sat down again, raised the bowl and said to the other two: "I was still in a hurry to enter the village, but I didn't find such a beauty in the village." This dilapidated village suddenly turned out to look good. Drink a few more bowls of wine, and find a woman and sleep well. ”

Chang Qiang and Ye Jian applauded together, raised a bowl to drink, and the village hall was lively again for a while.

The woman was in Bu Sheng's arms, and she was ruthless and didn't dare to move. With resentment in my heart, I closed my eyes and shed tears.

After drinking two bowls of wine, Bu Sheng saw the woman crying, and couldn't help but say loudly: "I didn't expect that you would be so affectionate to that village owner, it's rare." But I don't know, grandpa likes this tune the most! ”

After speaking, he drank another bowl of wine with Chang Sheng and Ye Jian, then stood up with the woman in his arms and said, "It's not early, go to sleep in time." And the woman of this place, which one you liked, took her to warm the bed. A good night is short, and you can have fun in time! ”

Chang Qiang and Ye Jian thanked Bu Sheng together, and their two pairs of eyes swept over the remaining four women.

In a large room outside the village, more than dozens of party soldiers were locked inside, lying or sitting, all with gloomy faces. Outside, the moon was like a mirror, the cold wind was cold, and the branches were rattling.

Two Song sergeants came over, replaced the guards in front, and crowded the gout at the door, gossiping.

One said: "We are drinking wind here, but a few generals are happy and drinking in the walled hall." ”

The other said, "No, it's a big fat sheep, roasted for them to eat." Poor since we conquered this village, we only drank a bowl of cold wine, and there was not a piece of meat in our mouths. But they roasted the sheep, drank wine, and were merry in the hall. ”

The previous one sighed: "So we are soldiers, they are generals, and the days are different." They had wine and meat, and some women persuaded them to drink, what a happy day? We are here, drinking the wind, guarding these party troops. According to me, wouldn't it be better to cut them off with a knife and exchange their heads for money? Why bother here, let us blow the wind and guard. ”

The other said: "There is no way, don't you know, now the army is not allowed to kill prisoners." If it is spread out, the sin is not small, and the command cannot afford it. And the reward for exchanging heads for money has stopped, not as before. ”

"Alas, the current military system, I don't know what to change around. This kind of rule, that kind of rule, and many pamphlets, this is not allowed, that is not allowed, and it is really annoying. In the army, you do things with your head in your head, many rules, and how to fight! ”

"That's it, that's it, it's not the right person to change it now! I heard that it was being changed according to the appearance of the Hequ Road Army, but I didn't see any use. The guns and cannons in the army have been changed, how can the party members resist? If you don't change, you will be killed in Lingzhou as soon as possible. ”

At this time, a cold wind blew, and the two people guarding the door shouted cold. There were wooden houses all around, and no fires were allowed in the army, which really made them miserable.

One said: "On such a cold day, we are guarding here, and we can't sleep if we want to, it's really hard." ”

Another said: "This kind of ghost place, the cold wind is biting, how can you sleep?" By the way, when I was drinking in the village hall just now, I fell in love with a woman, and I heard that it was the Hun's family of the owner of the party here. When he heard that he had been born very beautiful, he took the woman in his arms and went back to his room to sleep. Tsk, tsk, it's really good luck to have a beautiful woman warm the bed in this weather! ”

The people in front of him listened to it and became interested: "This village looks very dilapidated, and the owner of the village is not a powerful figure in the party, how beautiful is the Hun family?" Command luck, it's really unparalleled. Although the village is broken, there is not much money in the village, and it is enough to have a beautiful woman. ”

The two guards got together, and the more they talked, the more excited they became. Life in the army is monotonous, and I am interested in this kind of thing in the first place. Guarding tonight, the cold wind makes people unable to stand, so they have to rely on this kind of topic to relieve their boredom.

It's just that they don't know that the party captives locked up here are the husband of the woman, the owner of the party village.
