Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 299 The Kindness of Women
After getting drunk, Dou Jiande fell into a coma for a day and a night.

The cold wind is blowing, and the north wind is howling.

In front of the Xiangping camp, Dou Jiande stood in front of the camp gate carrying a burden on a wooden stick, looking back, always reluctant to take the step of leaving.

With the Mingguang armor removed and the yellow military robes removed, they are no longer the 200-man commanders of the Liaodong County Barracks.

Three riders came out of the camp.

But it was Luo Cheng's son.

The tall Kan Leng stepped forward, "Father asked our brothers to send you off, I hope you will take good care of it all the way. This is a little money, and the other three horses are also for you."

Luo Cheng asked Kan Leng and the others to send Dou Jiande and the others on his behalf, and gave each of them ten guan coins, a sword and a horse.

"Jiande dare not accept it, and has no face to accept it." Dou Jiande sighed.

Wang Xiongsheng said, "The ten pennies were originally given to you. Each of the 200 elders has ten pennies for the New Year's reward. If you don't leave, this is the New Year's reward. Now that you are leaving, this is the travel expenses that the general will give you." The road is not smooth, and this horizontal knife is for self-defense."

After saying a few words, the three of them didn't linger much, put down their things and left.

Dou Jiande looked at these things and was speechless for a long time.

Liu Heitai looked through it, and found that among the ten coins, there were about one tael of broken silver worth five coins, about two coins of copper, and silk worth three coins.Luo Cheng considered them thoughtfully, so that it was convenient to carry and trade on the road.

"Brother-in-law, General Luo is really good. It's really not worth it for us to leave the barracks for Sun Anzu and Gao Shida's bastards."

Liu Heikai put the silver money on his body, put the silk and money on the horse, and said, "Yes, in fact, we could have stayed, even if we were reduced to infantry soldiers, we brothers can redeem our sins sooner or later , and then become the leader of 200 people, or even a lieutenant general."

He still remembered what Luo Cheng said earlier that he had decided to promote them to captains, but they screwed up themselves.

"General Luo is indeed a good person. He is capable of fighting and caring for his brothers. Following him, he can be rewarded for his meritorious service, and there are also many benefits. It is naturally rare to be able to follow such a general. But it is precisely because of this that I have to leave , have no face to stay. And you also saw it in the military tent, the military academy is full, and there are not many people who really speak for us. To put it bluntly, we are all from Hebei, and we have joined for a short time. We have not been regarded as brothers by Luo Cunxiao and the others. .”

"Brother-in-law, what should we do now, are we really going back to our hometown in Zhangnan?"

"Come on, go home."

Although I was very reluctant to give up, the 200 people who managed to fight hard to lead a battalion school lieutenant disappeared like this, but there was no way.If he had a thicker skin, he could indeed stay.

Even if a boss like Luo Cunxiao doesn't want to see him, sooner or later he will be able to get acquainted and stand out.

But the better Luo Cheng treats him, the more shameless he is to stay.

He, Dou Jiande, is a man of loyalty and dignity, staying is a charity.

Facing the frosty wind in the morning, with a hangover headache, Dou Jiande rode on the horse presented by Luo Cheng and left the barracks with some reluctance, carrying the horizontal knife presented by him.

He secretly swore in his heart that if he, Dou Jiande, had the chance to make his mark, he would never forget Luo Cheng's kindness to him.

The three rode for a while, and then saw two people standing on the side of Liaoze Road.

Somewhat embarrassed, on a winter morning, only wearing a thin coat, shivering from the cold.

"Brother, it's Sun Anzu and Gao Shida's two dog days."

Liu Heitai recognized the two at a glance, his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he reached out to touch the knife.

The two over there also saw the three of them, like a drowning man who sees straw and rushes over.

"Brother." Sun Anzu came over and hugged Dou Jiande's horse's head.

Dou Jiande looked cold.

He just said coldly, "Why are you here?"

Gao Shida said a little awkwardly, "After you let us go, Captain Zhao of the scout battalion led people to arrest us all and brought us back. We thought we were going to die this time, but who would have thought that Luo Pian would come over last night to see us?" He said to us, and then he ordered us to be released this morning. He also said that you were deported to your hometown because of the involvement of the two of us, so the two of us are here waiting for you, big brother."

Liu Heikai said angrily, "Damn it, why didn't you kill you two bastards? We were hurt by you, and we were going to be promoted to captain. Once you two bastards ran away, we The captain is gone, and those who harmed us are also gone. The feats gained in a few bloody battles are all in vain now."

Sun Anzu slapped himself on the face.

"Brother, Hei Dian and Fu Bao, it's all our fault for being obsessed with ghosts for a while, we are sorry for you."

Dou Jiande ignored the two of them.Then Sun Anzu continued to slap himself in the face, with a loud slap, and his face became swollen after a while.

Finally Dou Jiande couldn't stand it anymore.

"Okay, don't mention the past. Since General Luo also let you go, let's go home together." After speaking, Dou opened the bag, took his clothes and shared them with the two.

Sun Anzu and Sun Anzu hurriedly put on their clothes with trembling hands and feet, finally feeling less cold.

"Let's go."

The three of Dou Jiande rode in front, and Sun Anzu Gao Shida trotted behind while wiping his nose.

barracks.

Luo Cheng listened to Zhao Gui's report that Dou Jiande left with Sun Anzu.

"Is this Dou Jiande stupid?" the fourth child asked.

Luo Cheng smiled.

"I expected this to happen. Dou Jiande is known as benevolent, but sometimes he is more benevolent than a woman. Benevolence and righteousness can make him succeed, but it will eventually bring him down."

The fourth child sneered, "What can someone like Dou Jiande, who is full of shit in his head, do?"

Luo Cheng just shook his head and stopped talking about them.

"Wei Jishi, before the new year, remember to distribute the reward money, as well as the clothes, quilts, shoes and socks we bought from Huaiyuan. We will buy more livestock, vegetables and fruits from the merchants. Although we will not be able to go home this year, It should also be lively and grand, to give the brothers the feeling of home."

Wei Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, the county soldiers have 200 soldiers, [-] auxiliary soldiers and [-] civilian husbands. Anyway, they are just brothers who want to follow the general. They will all be rewarded. Take it out. A soldier has five guan, [-] men have [-] guan, captain [-], general [-], general [-]. An auxiliary soldier has [-] guan, and a civilian husband has [-] guan. In addition, shoes, socks, clothes, quilts, etc. have also been prepared Well, the livestock, vegetables and fruits are also available, this year will definitely be a lively year."

The reward money given to them by the imperial court has also come down, but it only accounts for a very small part of this reward, not even one full.The richness is all due to the money earned by Luocheng Distillery and Tiefang, especially the distillery. Liquor is now selling very well in Liaoxi, earning a lot of money every day.

But he couldn't stand the 8000 people, so he emptied the small treasury with an annual reward.

But Luo Cheng is not stingy, everyone follows him here to work hard, we can't let everyone drink the northwest wind during the New Year.
