Chapter 39: Sing a little song to me
"Kitten, I finally saved my life. Is it that good women are not guarding the city? Do you run to us to kill me?" The monk touched the scalp of the green stubborn and looked at Zhang Xiaomao. Although he complained, he had a smile on his face. The kitten stretched out his fist and pounded heavily on his thick chest. He smiled without saying a word. He walked to the wild dog who was still lying on the stretcher and leaned over and asked, "I am still alive, my life is very strong!" The wild dog laughed loudly, and the laughter touched the injury. He was so painful that he was still laughing. He raised his hand and fought hard with Zhang Xiaomao's hand: "Brother, live together, die together. Kitten, good."
Several people sat down on the ground, Shu Chang looked at everyone and said, "Qin Crazy Man is not here, the Death Camp needs a temporary head to command the unified command. Who will do it?"
Several people looked at me, and I looked at you, but they didn't make a sound. After a while, the scissors said, "Doctor Shu, didn't we all listen to you when Qin Tou left?"
Shu Chang's eyebrows stood up: "I am an amateur in the march and war. If I can't enter the city if I stay outside the city, I will definitely fight a tough battle with the people of Western Qin. Can I survive? It's above this battle. I, an amateur, will you command you to die?"
The wild dog lying on the stretcher hummed a few words and said loudly: "Doctor Shu is right. My brigade was personally directed by Qin Tou himself. Now that the head is gone, isn't the kitten here? My brigade handed over to the kitten, and I also recommend the kitten to be the head."
"Brothers, I came here just to be with my brothers, not to be this head. I have left the death camp and behave inappropriately." Zhang Xiaomao shook his head repeatedly.
"I think it's the only one who is suitable for you." The monk said, "Scissors and I don't like each other, and neither of us agrees with each other. The wild dog is lying down here. Doctor Shu is an amateur in the military, and only me and scissors are left. No one is convinced by the other. Kitten, you are a senior of the Death Camp. In the past two years, you have been in the camp lieutenant in the army. If you have experience, who do you don't do?"
"What do you think of scissors?" Shu Chang asked in a deep voice.
The scissors' face was gloomy. Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, he nodded and said, "What do I have to do with my opinion? The monk is right, that is, the kitten can convince the public."
Seeing everyone expressing their opinions, Shu Chang said, "Okay, that's it. Zhang Xiaomao, don't whine. Do you think you are the temporary head to be the one who makes you do the right thing? Tell you that the lives of thousands of residents in the camp will be handed over to your hands. If you do it well, there will be no credit. If you do it, you will have to work hard. If you have thousands of residents, you will go to the underworld. Everyone ignores you and leave you alone."
Zhang Xiaomao stood up, looked at the people with a serious expression, and bowed with both hands, "Okay, since brothers value it, I, Zhang Xiaozheng, took on this burden, but I also said that I do not have the prestige of Boss Qin to convince you. However, since I recommended it together, I would like to take more burdens. If someone does not accept the military order in the next action, I will be unpolite."
"That's natural. Although Qin Tou is not here, it's still the same rules. When the war comes, who dares to refuse to obey the military order and act without authorization, everyone chopped off the head." The wild dog beat the stretcher and shouted: "I can't swing the knife now, but I still have a dog's teeth. I'll bit him to death."
"Agree." The monk and scissors also expressed their opinions respectively.
"Thank you brothers." Zhang Xiaomao looked at everyone: "Doctor Shu, the first thing I'm going to bother you."
"What's up?"
"We are in a big attack, and we can't run away. If we run, we will only die faster, so we can only find a place to stick to it. About three miles away from Anyang City is Maoer Mountain, which is also the only place to stay nearby. Next, where will we stay?" Zhang Xiaomao casually drew the nearby terrain on the ground. "Station here, at least from the perspective of face, we are in a horn with Anyang City, which will always make the Western Qin people a little worried."
Although I knew that the city would never pay attention to their lives, the people of Western Qin might not know that everyone nodded, and there was no way to do so.
"But we lack the materials to build positions and the food needed by the army, especially the food. No one knows how long we will hold on, or it will be finished soon, or we can hold on until we finally survive, so we need food."
"Did you let me go into the city to find Cheng Pingzhi?" Shu Chang said.
"Yes, Doctor Shu, Cheng Pingzhi's wife was seriously ill a few years ago. You pulled her wife back from the gate of hell. Although this guy is a guy who turns against others, he will always be a little rude when you go. In addition, you also tell him that if he doesn't give it, the death camp will be dispersed with him. We have to swing the knife to rob him. The left and right are dead. Don't blame us for dragging them to death. Cheng Pingzhi is a person who can tell them all at once. He will definitely be willing to give up some money, grain, and weapons to send us plague gods away. And in this way, even if we are killed by the Western Qin people next, he can make it clear afterwards."
"Okay, I'll run this time." Shu Chang stood up and turned around and left.
"Scissors!" Zhang Xiaomao looked at the scissors and said, "We want to build a defensive position in Maoer Mountain. This requires a large number of people. The people of Xiqin are coming soon, but our soldiers must keep their energy and prepare for combat, so I need a large number of people. Now, there are not many others in Anyang City, but there are many people. I need you to recruit more people to help us build a position. You are good at face to face and can also speak eloquently."
The monk burst into laughter: "This is a slut."
The scissors glared at him.
Zhang Xiaomao kicked the monk's thick butt without hesitation, "Monkey, if you are idle, just take your people to Huer Mountain to cut trees, from top to bottom, from top to bottom, from top to bottom, leaving only the bottom circle."
"Ah?" The monk was stunned.
"There is only the stupid, black and thick one like you." The scissors responded, laughed and stood up and left.
"Kitten, what should I do?" The wild dog lying on the stretcher looked at Zhang Xiaomao with anticipation. Everyone had something to do, and he was left with nothing. He couldn't help but feel empty. He couldn't help but greet Yang Zhi's ancestors and the eighteen generations together. Of course, at this time, he would never think that Yang Zhi had actually ended up in a very miserable way.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Xiaomao looked at the wild dog, thought for a while, and suddenly laughed, "Your little song is good, come and sing a song for everyone, and be happy."
The wild dog's face suddenly turned black.
This time Shu Chang entered the city, and successfully met Cheng Pingzhi. Cheng Pingzhi agreed without saying a word about Shu Chang's request. As Zhang Xiaomao said, Cheng Pingzhi was not a fool, but an extremely smart person. He did not enter the city but wanted to fight the Western Qin people to the death outside the city. Even if the entire army died in battle, it was their own choice. He supported money, grain and weapons and had already fulfilled his duties as Mu Shou.
"Doctor Shu, I will give you all the things you want. Don't worry, you will never be discounted." Cheng Ping said.
"Then I'm thankful for Lord Cheng, Shu said goodbye now."
"Doctor Shu, please stay." Cheng Pingzhi hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, and said, "Doctor Shu, there are a group of thieves and robbers in the death camp. Why should you be entangled with them? Mr. Shu dared not forget the kindness of Dr. Shu's life-saving grace for his son. Dr. Shu won so much for them, which is worthy of them. Why not stay in the city and stay in Cheng's mansion, which is safer than outside the city."
Listening to Cheng Pingzhi's words, Shu Chang laughed: "Mr. Cheng, in your eyes, they are robbers, but in Shu's eyes, they are strong men and real men. It's been a long time since they stayed with them for many years. Even if they die with them, Shu will not be in vain for his life. Thank you for your different look, Shu said goodbye."
He bowed to Cheng Ping, Shu Chang turned around, took a step, but turned around, "Your wife's illness has not completely escaped, and this is impossible. You must be especially careful in the season after winter. You must never bear the cold or the cold."
Looking at Shu Changyang's long-distance figure, Cheng Pingzhi showed a hint of ashamed on his face. After a while, he stomped his feet and called a clerk beside him: "Go and tell the treasury that what Dr. Shu wants should be given the best, and add 10% more."
"Sir, will Commander Yang object? If there are too many death camps, there will be fewer in the city!" The official said with some concern.
Cheng Pingzhi sneered: "Can we still expect Yang Yi to lead people to defend the city? If the people of Western Qin do not attack the city, they will be fine. Once they really decide to attack the city, they are afraid that the first one will be Yang Yi and his county soldiers. The things will be given to the death camp, at least they will not be wasted. Go and give them."
Outside Anyang City, the Death Camp took over a large number of weapons, food and supplies from the county soldiers. Then, under the gaze of countless soldiers on the city and countless people outside the city, they lined up in an orderly line towards Maoer Mountain several miles away. Shu Chang looked at the team and laughed silently, because he rarely saw these guys walking so neatly, each of them could stand up so straight, and move forward proudly. Before he knew it, Qin Feng spent several years to adapt this army of death row prisoners into a soul-like army.
On a stretcher, there was a singing voice of incomplete tone. It was a wild dog, yelling at his hometown song at the top of his throat. If Shu Chang was in normal times, she would have stuck a plaster on his mouth without hesitation, but now, he was in tears.
We both rowed the boat,
Picking red diamonds, picking red diamonds,
I have a love for you,
I'm so kind,
Just like two-cornered diamonds,
Born on the same day,
We both have the same heart.
(Cai Hongling, an old song I heard when I was a child. I still sing it after decades. It sounds very nice.)
