Chapter 1407: Winter in Fort Arthur
It takes a lot of time to deliver these letters over a span of thousands of miles, and it's the norm for a letter to travel for about two months on the road. The Haihan army also has relatively strict control over the pastime activities of drinking and gambling money, and there is no place to spend military salaries, so the officers and soldiers who are idle often choose to write letters to their families to pass the time, and by the way, pour out their homesickness. Even if a person sends four or five letters at a time, it is not surprising here.
However, not all officers and men have the ability to write letters on their own, and there are still quite a few semi-literate people who are less than 100 literate and can only rely on others to write on their behalf, and the letters sent from home can only be read and listened to by others. The people in charge of this errand were basically propaganda and political workers in the army, but several civilian officials of the Lushun garrison all fell ill, so the activity of writing and reading letters was suspended. Liu Shang and Qin Wei happened to be civilian officials in charge of propaganda, and Sun Zhen naturally pushed this errand on their heads.
"This ......" Liu Shang and Qin Wei glanced at each other, knowing that it was inconvenient to refuse, so they had to agree.
"Those two will rest for a while, and I'll arrange for someone to come over after dinner." Sun Zhen saw that the other party should respond, and his face was also happy.
After Sun Zhen left, Liu Shangcai spoke: "I didn't expect it to be easy to come here, just be a writing gentleman." ”
Qin Wei Zhengse said: "The soldiers are working the border, you and I need to do our best to help them." ”
Liu Shangying said: "That's nature, staying in this kind of bitter cold place for a long time is indeed difficult, and what we can do at the moment is probably just to help maintain morale." ”
If it weren't for the outbreak of the epidemic, an all-rounder like Liu Shang would have played a cameo role in the art troupe on the occasion of gathering crowds to preach. However, now that Fort Arthur prohibits the gathering of many people, Liu Shang's role is relatively limited. But even so, Liu Shang still preferred to stay in Liaodong to avoid the limelight, which was at least much better than being frightened on Zhifu Island. These people in the army are relatively simple, and they don't have to bother with the security department to get to the bottom of it.
Although the accommodation conditions in Fort Arthur can only be described as simple, like all Haihan-controlled areas, the standard of food here is not bad, and the sumptuous dinner is even far better than the canteen that Liu Shang ate during his time in Majiazhuang. Although it is the middle of winter, the logistics department still brings a lot of good things, so that Liu Shang and others who have just arrived are happy.
However, because of the epidemic, no large-scale reception banquet was held in the army, but a few tables were set up in the tent where they lived, accompanied by officers of the garrison. Of course, Liu Shang doesn't care about this kind of red tape, the scene is smaller, you can eat more food and drink less, but you are more comfortable.
They arranged for eight people to live in this tent, except for Liu Shang and Qin Wei, the other few people were all military doctors and doctors temporarily invited from Shandong, but they were all Sven people, and the one who stayed here to accompany them was Sun Zhen, who brought them over before.
"Everyone, this roe deer meat is a fresh product that was only brought back from the mountains yesterday, and you can't eat it in Shandong, so don't be polite when you move your chopsticks!" Sun Zhen was very enthusiastic to introduce the dishes on the table to everyone.
A doctor at the table twisted his beard and said: "Roe deer meat warms the spleen and stomach, strengthens the heart and lungs, and promotes dampness and aphrodisiac. ”
Sun Zhen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that there were still three sentences of dedication in the bank, and immediately pointed to another dish and introduced: "Everyone, this pheasant soup is cooked with local pheasants, and the soup is delicious, not to be missed!"
Another doctor rushed to the head this time and said: "In the Tang Dynasty, there is a cloud in the "Food and Doctor Heart", pheasant meat moistens dryness and quenches thirst, nourishes the spleen and invigorates qi, and it is a good food supplement. ”
Liu Shang patted Sun Zhen on the shoulder and said, "Platoon Leader Sun doesn't need to be introduced, these people are all experts, you and I still have to eat meat and drink bar!"
Sun Zhen said with a smile: "Director Liu is right, he got an axe at the end of work, come and come, everyone has come here from afar, where the greeting is not good, I hope you will bear with me, Sun will give you a cup first!"
Sun Zhen raised his glass and swung it around, then tilted his head and poured the wine into his mouth. Liu Shang saw that this wine glass weighed at least one or two, and he didn't dare to follow his style with this amount of wine, so he could only take a sip in response at the moment. Sun Zhen didn't mind whether everyone toasted or not, took the wine bottle and filled it by himself, and began to salute one by one.
