The one hundred and twenty-sixth episode of the heavenly change
The north wind is howling, the snowflakes are flying, the sky of Qi is changing, at this time, as long as the north wind is frighteningly cold, the people in Linzi City have taken out thick clothes to wear on their bodies, I don't know why this year's winter came exceptionally early, and it was also extraordinarily cold, so it was bitter for the people on the streets, and they had to sleep on the streets without losing their homes, their hands shrunk in their sleeves, and their heads were also shrunk inward, if they could rather the whole person shrink in, the crowd gathered together, and the bodies were almost sticking together, even so it was still very cold, and the cold wind was pervasive.
"Mother, it's so cold." A child shrunk in an adult's arms, shivering, with a slightly thin garment.
"It's okay, it's not cold if you hug your mother." The woman clasped her hands tightly, this is the only thing that can be done for the child, as a mother must hope that her child is well fed and clothed, and live a carefree life, but that kind of day is just a luxury.
"Mother, why don't you go home, the dog baby is homesick."
"Home is gone." The woman hugged the child in her arms hard, her eyes were full of tears, the man died in battle, and the last wooden house left behind was also destroyed, and now she can only hide here and receive a little gruel every day to live, if it were not for the fact that the young child would no longer want to live.
"The Zhao people who were killed by the sky."
"What's the matter with the Zhao people, don't forget, the Qi people who burned our houses and robbed us of our food are not Zhao people."
"Fart, if it weren't for Zhao Xingbing, how would it be like this."
"When my grandson grows up, I must kill Zhao Ren."
"Well, grandpa just wants to see his grandson grow up healthy and healthy, and he doesn't want to fight anymore, and he doesn't want to fight again." The old man's three sons died in battle, and now only one grandson is left, which has become the biggest sustenance for the rest of his life.
The wind is howling, the heavy snow will completely dye Linzi City white, the Zhao army camp outside Linzi City is also not happy, although there is a response in advance, the supply materials also have cotton clothes, but I don't want the winter of Qi to be frighteningly cold, the wind hits the face like a knife, the camp tents have lit bonfires, and the soldiers gather around the fire to keep warm.
"."
Mu Chen couldn't help but scold, the broad-bladed sword was thrown aside, and the iron hilt emitted a bone-piercing coolness, if there was a bucket of burning knives at this time, it would be very happy.
Zhao Kuo's big tent is as warm as spring, the copper basin spits out a red tongue of fire, after the bonfire is burned out, the charcoal fire can be put into the copper basin to keep warm, of course, it is easy to be poisoned if it is not handled properly, Zhao Kuo carefully checked the barracks and sent bamboo slips, which recorded that there were still materials left in the army, and there was no need to worry about the surplus of materials in the army.
Zhao Kuo put down the bamboo slip, his eyes slowly closed, and practiced according to the way Xun Qing taught that day, since he left the Jixia School Palace and returned to the barracks, as long as he had time to practice, it was strange to say, but it was an ordinary meditation method that could make people get rid of fatigue and become refreshed.
Slowly inhale, the breath is transported around the body and then slowly exhaled, it seems simple and implies the mysterious method of Taoism, after the operation, a gust of wind blows the big tent and shakes it, Zhao Kuo stood up and opened the tent door, and suddenly a chill came, "How is the situation outside?" ”
One person guarded in front of the door, "Back to the king, the soldiers of each battalion have been issued winter clothes, and it should be fine, and the outer patrol camp is afraid that it will be more difficult." ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, "Go and see." ”
Zhao Kuo walked out of the big tent, the cold wind gusted, he was used to the warmth in the tent, and he exhaled bursts of white gas in his mouth, and finally understood why the ancient expeditions were all in spring and autumn, one was to ensure agriculture, and the army could not be launched without food, and the other was to avoid the wind and snow, especially the land of Qi and Yan was located in the northeast and it was frighteningly cold in winter.
"The King."
The wind and snow hit the hot pain on the face, the figure of the Dao Dao stood upright in the wind and snow, the most painful and the most important thing to patrol the camp, as the patrol camp shouldered the heavy responsibility of the safety of the entire Zhao army camp, and also carried the trust of the king, no one was afraid in the face of the wind and snow.
"It's the king coming."
In a word, a person completely made Zhao's defense line boil, Zhao Kuo stepped forward to carefully inspect, the soldier wearing cotton clothes in his armor can at least guarantee that he will not be frostbitten by the wind and snow, "Is it cold or not?" ”
"It's not cold."
"Tell the truth."
"This goddamn cold."
Everyone laughed, and Zhao Kuo patted the man's shoulder, "Immediately shorten the rotation time, this king's soldiers can't fall here." ”
On weekdays, the time to find a camp and change the guard is two hours, and it is conceivable that the weather will freeze outside for two hours, Zhao Kuo will simply shorten the time, as long as the troops are enough to rotate the camp, it can be fully operated.
The soldiers' eyes showed gratitude, the order was given, a group of men and horses were sent out of the tent, the camp changed guards, and the patrol soldiers let out a sigh of relief, and their spears were so cold that they could barely straighten their hands and completely lose sensation in their feet.
The soldier came to the front, "Leave it to us here, hurry back and bake the fire, and warm up." ”
"You can't bake the fire at this time, use snow."
"With snow?"
The snow was very cold in his hand, wouldn't he be frozen to death by rubbing the snow on such a cold day, and the soldiers were stunned for a moment and did not understand the meaning of the king's move.
"Do as the king says."
"Quick."
Thousands of soldiers took off their shoes and simply sat on the ground, grabbed the snow and rubbed it vigorously, "It's really weird, the more you rub it, the hotter it gets." ”
The soldier rubbed his feet until he was steaming hot, revealing a red halo, and the scene in front of him could only be described as unbelievable, "Simply rub Lao Tzu's back." ”
One person took off his clothes directly, and the soldiers behind him quickly rubbed the snow on his body, "Lao Tzu wants it too." ”
"See if I don't cut you."
The snowball slammed into the body and shattered directly, and the Zhao State military camp was jubilant, almost frozen soldiers burst into vitality in an instant, and everyone played in the snow to their heart's content.
"King, what's the reason?"
Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "After standing for so long, the cold has entered the body, once you use fire or hot water to warm the heat, it will only make the cold continue to go inward, and you will inevitably get sick after a long time, and it is different with snow." ”
Mu Chen patted his head, "I understand, the snow is cold, and after a few rubs, the cool air is forced out." ”
"That's the reason."
After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, he rubbed his hands vigorously, and everyone followed suit, and the soldiers of Qi who were guarding the city wall were also very cold, and the cold wind was even stronger when they stood on a high place, and one person poked his head out, "What are Zhao people doing!" ”
"Eighty percent of them are crazy."
"Don't worry so much, come over and get hot." The man hurriedly squatted down, and several people gathered together.
It is implied in the book that Zhao Kuoji encountered an assassin in the school palace, although he could not find out the identity of the other party, but he never forgot the fragrant scene that night, how to get rid of it in the world, Zhao Kuoji simply resigned and returned to the barracks, so it was a joy to Mu Chen, and the three of them returned from the school palace, Xun sighed again and again, it was a pity that he was so talented.
The army of Qi has never dared to fight, Zhao Kuo simply broke the enemy with the method of siege, and sent spies to contact Lei Meng's army must not be taken lightly, whether the Linzi passage can be completely cut off is particularly important for the whole campaign.
