The death battalion is still stationed in Mao'er Mountain, almost two months have passed since the end of the war, and the peach trees in the field are blooming and blooming, and now they are hanging with small fruits, but they have not changed anything, the imperial court seems to have forgotten this army, and there is no conclusion about the annihilation of the western border army. A great defeat in a war will inevitably lead to the investigation of the causes, the review of the faults, and the punishment of those responsible, but now it is eerily quiet.
It has been almost a month since the negotiation envoy of Western Qin arrived in Shangjing, and he only fought with the foreign affairs personnel of Southern Chu all day long, and the Western Qin people were naturally full of confidence with this big victory, and the lion opened his mouth and was unwilling to reduce the price, and Southern Chu, although they lost the western border army, their national strength was much stronger than that of Western Qin, and from the comprehensive analysis of the intelligence gathered from all sides, the Western Qin people were simply unwilling to have a long-term stalemate with Southern Chu, and they could not afford to fight a big battle. With this foundation, Nan Chu was naturally unwilling to retreat, and even put forward a series of compensation demands to the Western Qin people, and the two sides quarreled all day long in Shangjing, and it was so deadlocked.
The death camp seems to be living the same life as before, no one cares about them, they are free, the difference is that their boss is not in the camp at the moment. However, although the tiger is not in the mountains, Yu Wei is still there, and the death camp is still in order.
Monk Hua still ran to the Qinglou as soon as he was free, but this guy seemed to be stimulated by something, so he didn't go into the city to find the women in the city, and still ran to the Qinglou women from Jingjingguan. The wild dog was taken into the city by Zhang Xiaomei to recuperate, how to say that the conditions in the city are much better than outside, and now the wild dog's wound has begun to heal, although it is not strong, and it is impossible to fight, but the scolding is getting more and more sufficient.
These two people are at peace with their current lives, and the only thing they feel depressed about is scissors. Originally counting on this big war, and then get a head work, you can completely whitewash yourself, from now on the archives of the imperial court, your past will be erased, you will become an innocent person, like Zhang Xiaomei, transferred out of the death camp, go to other troops to do a captain, scissors believe that they have this ability, in the death camp tempered for many years without dying, as long as they can be transferred out, which one is not alone? Like wolf teeth, leopards, kittens.
It's a pity that the first two died, but the kitten had a good life, not only picked up a life and survived, but now he has married a wife, and the woman has also conceived a son for him.
Scissors is a little jealous, if he hadn't been out of that matter, his son would be able to buy wine for himself now.
Changed into civilian clothes, went into the city with scissors, found a tavern, and drank silently. There is still a head to be done, but judging from the current situation, I don't know what year and month it will take to get it. The western border army has been completely defeated, with the current strength on the border, let alone attacking, even defense is a problem, as long as the Western Qin people are willing, they can enter Kou'anyang County at any time, and with the current strength of the death battalion, it is simply not enough to resist the enemy.
Not to mention the military exploits, it would be good not to hold the only remaining border army accountable for the loss of land at that time.
originally thought that the imperial court would definitely mobilize a large army to take revenge, even if the death battalion was the vanguard again, he would always have hope, but now he was hanging like this, but it was the most tormenting, and when he was far away from whitewashing himself before, he naturally had no hope, but now, seeing that there is only the last step, he can't step out.
This makes the scissors feel painful.
Scissors only served two people in the death camp, one was the boss Qin Feng, and the other was the doctor Shu Chang, Qin Feng trained him from a small city merchant with only one blood and courage in a few years to a decisive general with troops, and completely turned him into another person, and Shu Chang pulled him back from the death line several times, so that he can still sit here and drink today, sitting here and thinking about his life after whitewashing.
Scissors doesn't agree with other people in the death camp, especially guys like monks, even if it's Zhang Xiaomei, he looks down on guys like Monk Hua, even if it's his comrades-in-arms, even if it's on the battlefield, the two have fought side by side, but Scissors doesn't think that he is the same person as them.
He is innocent, he is a crime for revenge, and guys like Monk Hua and Zhang Kitten are sins in themselves.
With a long sigh, another glass of stuffy wine went down.
Suddenly a person sat down on the opposite side. The scissors didn't raise their heads, and shouted in a low voice: "Get out!" "He's in a bad mood now, the guys who came out of the death camp all have a body of anger, a body of evil, and when he sits there, the people around him, even the most stupid people, can feel a very uncomfortable feeling, so the scissors are almost empty around now.
Scissors is immersed in his own sadness and suspicion and unwillingness, and he doesn't want anyone to destroy his current emotions.
"Deputy Lieutenant Duan Xuanduan, what a big temper!" The person on the other side not only did not leave, but laughed loudly.
Scissors Huo raised his head, he hadn't heard anyone call him by his real name for a long time, in the death camp, everyone called him by his nickname, even if he didn't like or even dislike this nickname at all. After several years, everyone almost forgot their real name and surname, or when they saw the roster of the death camp, everyone would not even associate the name Duan Xuan with scissors.
"Who are you?" Scissors' eyes sharpened. There was a thin old man sitting opposite, he had no reflection at all, and the accent of the other party's speech was not the accent of Anyang County, so it was certain that the other party was an outsider, and an outsider could accurately find himself and call out his name, which was not simple.
Scissors entered the city today, just by chance, and just randomly hit a very low-grade tavern on the street, high-end he can't afford to go, twenty taels of military pay a month, most of him sent home, in the old home in Qiushui City, he still has an elderly father and mother. Because of his own incident, his father was finally retaliated against, broke his legs, and the old lady cried blindly, completely losing the ability to live, if it weren't for the fact that he still had a military salary in the death camp, they would have been reduced to beggars.
If you walk at will, you can let people find yourself, which can only show one thing, someone is staring at you, staring at you from outside the city, so that you can find yourself accurately.
Scissors felt a little chill in his heart, although he was in a bad mood today, and he was a little unwilling, but it was not something that could be tracked at will, but now that the old man found his face, he didn't notice that someone was following him at all, which can only show that the people who follow him are some good hands.
The hand holding the wine glass did not move, but the hand under the table had slowly hung down to the side of the boot, and he did not carry an iron knife when he entered the city today, but he still had a small self-defense weapon.
The old man smiled, slowly put his hands on the table, as if covering something, and then opened it in front of the scissors, so that the scissors could see the contents clearly, and he quickly closed them together and put the thing away.
Scissors' pupils contracted, and what appeared in front of him was a golden internal guard waist card, which was something only available to the core personnel at the highest level of the inner position.
"Now you know who I am and where I come from, right? Deputy Lieutenant Duan, can we have a good talk in another place? The old man still smiled.
"What do you have to talk about me, I was originally a criminal, and I served in the army, and it seems impossible for a small shrimp like me to work for a character like you, right?" Scissors looked at each other in surprise.
"We are looking for you, naturally there is a reason to look for you, Deputy Lieutenant Duan, are you going to refuse me?" The smile on the old man's face slowly faded.
The scissors were silent for a moment.
"Where to go?"
A smile reappeared on the old man's face, "Very good, this is a good start, Deputy Lieutenant Duan, you will definitely be happy for today's decision, now, you follow me, let's change to a quiet place and have a good chat." ”
(I came back from a business trip, turned on the computer, and was pleasantly surprised to find that Sanjiang's request was actually passed, and I will go to Sanjiang next week, and I am happy.) Today I will work hard during the day, and I will write another chapter in the evening, and then I will work hard at night, and from tomorrow, I will have a chapter in the morning and one in the evening.
