Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 507

Back at the camp where we set off in the morning, the snow started to fall.

It took a lot of time to set up camp at Huwei Camp, get off the animals pulling the carts, and then use the baffles to link them, and move some goods down, so the time for Huwei Camp to set up camp was very early.

The sky was already gloomy, and watching the snowflakes fall, Wang Tong was about to order to set up camp. This was the camp last night, so there was no inconvenience.

"Lord Wang, I guess it will be an hour before it gets dark. It's not too late to set up camp after dark. If you can go back a little bit, there is still a nest in front, and it's better to shelter from the wind and snow over there!"

The general manager of the Miyun guard who had been quiet all the time opened his mouth to persuade him at this moment, snowflakes were flying, Wang Tong didn't think it was a big deal, but the general manager was extremely terrified, and the resentment on his face disappeared.

After all, this commander had guarded the gate for many years and had rich experience. His opinions were always listened to. The Huwei Battalion continued to move forward, and did not tie up the camp until it was dark.

"Sleep more alert at night, don't let the snow crush the tent!"

"When the guards of each battalion sent off their sentries, they all patrolled around the camp to see if there was any obstacle in the camp. Don't let the snow accumulate too much anywhere!"

Camped at night, and fires were lit everywhere, but Wang Tong and a group of generals were not idle, and arranged one thing to pay attention to in the snow.

If you don’t live on the grasslands, it’s hard to understand how terrifying the heavy snow is. Whether you’re a soldier or a young man, you find it fresh and interesting. Whether you encounter enemies during the day or not, everyone thinks that they can return peacefully, and their interest is higher. However, there is no meat in the evening meal, just ordinary military supplies.

On a snowy night, it was really pitch black. Standing on the carriage and looking around, Wang Tong could see an extremely leisurely area, which was where the firelight in the camp was shining.

"If it snows heavily, we really don't need to fight!"

Wang Tong sat in the car and said with a smile, and Tan Jiang who followed him said:
"If a large group of cavalry is marching, if it is only a three-day journey, the Tartars will not be afraid of the snow. The snow disaster is only for a small group of tribes."

Wang Tong shook his head, stood up again, and said with a smile:

"I don't have to worry about them harassing and attacking at night. In such a dark day, if I really want to do something, I will definitely lose my way."

After finishing speaking, Wang Tong turned over and jumped out of the carriage, and said loudly:
"Cai Jianjun, tell the quartermaster to distribute all the lard and so on. It's freezing cold, how can we do without some oil and water!!"

Cai Nan, wearing a fur cloak, was doing the work there. Hearing Wang Tong's call, he quickly responded. In order to guard against the severe cold on the grassland, Wang Tong brought a lot of things with him, including an altar that he collected when passing through Tongzhou Altar lard, this thing is eaten with dry food, it is very hungry and cold-resistant.

Seeing the heavy snow falling on the return journey, Wang Tong also thought of this. Just after talking here, the Miyun guard who had been staring at Wang Tong hastily trotted over and said eagerly:

"My lord, don't be in a hurry to send it out, don't be in a hurry to send it out, I don't know how long it will be snowing, save a little if you can, and think about the long-term!"

Wang Tong shook his head helplessly. It was only a three-day journey, so he had no long-term considerations. However, the other party was experienced and cautious, so it was better to obey. He quickly waved his hand:

"Send half, send half!!"

After thinking about it again, he patted the general's shoulder and said with a smile:

"Now I will give you a job. Later, you and General Tan will walk around the camp. If there is anything that you think is wrong, let them correct it. Just talk and don't worry. I will make the decision for you!"

The boss hurriedly bowed and agreed, and just as he turned to go, he was stopped by Wang Tong and said:
"Mr. Ning, you said that you have two sons in your family, one is twelve and the other is sixteen. The middle-aged and the middle-aged sons eat poor old men. You Miyun guards don't have any extra money. Life is very hard!"

After all, they have been together for so many days, Wang Tong's subordinates chatted with Mr. Ning, and found out a lot of details. Hearing Wang Tong's question, Mr. Ning sighed and said:
"It's hard to say, everyone is living like this. The eldest brother goes to Miyun County to herd sheep, and the second child can barely eat enough. When he grows up, he will have some money as a soldier."

Wang Tong shook his head inwardly, it was indeed miserable to do this all the time, he wanted to think about it, but he said with a smile:

"I have business in Tianjin Wei and Xuanfu, and there is a shortage of manpower right now. If you don't mind, I would rather let the two young masters work there. I will take the salary of the assistants, and it will increase slowly! "

Hearing what Wang Tong said, Mr. Ning's eyes lit up, and he quickly waved his hands and said:

"How does this make it so that the two children don't even know the words, and they haven't done any business."

"Learn slowly. Seeing Mr. Ning's diligence and sincerity, the two young masters are no different. Otherwise, the salary will be paid first by the official, and the two young masters will learn slowly. How about going to the past after learning it?" ?”

Speaking of this, the words are very clear, the work is not important, the key is to give the two wages first, this kind of favor is nothing in Wang Tong's eyes, but Naning is so excited that he doesn't know how to face The way they put it there, they just said:
"Xiaguan... The little one didn't do anything, how could the adults spend so much money!"

It is very cost-effective for Wang Tong to pay an officer at the garrison at the pass with a small amount of money. He said with a smile:

"Ning is always busy, why not work hard, this is a trivial matter, and it will last forever."

President Ning hurriedly saluted, turned around and went to check the camp with General Tan, Wang Tong stared at his back and smiled, climbed into the carriage again, and looked outside in the darkness.

This kind of heavy snow really made people feel a little fresh, but seeing how cautious Chihei and Ning Ba always were, Wang Tong also became more careful in his heart.

This night, Ning Bazong was very diligent. In the past, he was silent and full of resentment, but tonight he ran to every place in the camp, and he did speak clearly in a few places.

For example, someone stuffed felt under the cart, and the cart covered the snowflakes, and the bottom was dry, but Ning told the general manager that if the snow was heavy, if it was buried, people might be suffocated in it, and some people tried to The fire around the fire is very hot. Connecting the tents together is also dissuaded. If the tents are connected together, there will be snow on the top, and it is likely to be crushed, and people will be crushed. There are also accidents. Still don't have to.

After tossing about this for a long time, all the camps were properly arranged, and everyone fell asleep.

***********
When I woke up in the morning, the snow stopped and I saw the sun.

Covered in silver, the vast snowfield, looking around, it is indeed a magnificent scene, which makes people feel refreshed and happy. The soldiers who got up to make fire and cook food were all excited. It snowed all night yesterday but the day was sunny, which is not called What disaster happened, but the beautiful scenery made this boring marching exercise a lot more interesting.

Moreover, there is no need to go to the nearby river to smash the ice to fetch water. It is convenient and labor-saving to collect the clean snow on the spot. Hearing the laughter and laughter in the camp, Wang Tong climbed up the watchtower set up in the camp despite the cold. The car is different, using the land as the base, it can be raised very high.

Wang Tong came down from the watchtower and ordered Ding Zhuang to dismantle it quickly, but he got on the cart on the west side again, watching Wang Tong's movements, several generals followed.

The snowfield is all silvery white. If you have different eyes, you will see it clearly. Wang Tong pointed to the west and said:

"Less than two days later, the tartar who was scared away by us appeared again. This time, it's not the same as playing a joke."

"I'm afraid there are hundreds of riders!"

Tan Bing at the side said in a low voice, Wang Tong stared at that side without making a sound, he could see that the black spots on the horizon were getting bigger and closer, Tan Jiang asked Wang Tong in a low voice:
"Master, arrange someone to be on guard!"

Wang Tong nodded and said:
"Tan Bing sent someone to stare at this side. These hundreds of cavalry are probably here to stare at us. If they really want to come up to fight, why don't they deliver food to our mouths. After the battalion is pulled out, we will follow yesterday's before the battle. Walking in queue, slower is slower."

After Wang Tong's order, all the generals immediately obeyed the order and went to make arrangements.

The hundreds of Tartars had reached a distance of almost three hundred paces, and they never approached again. However, at this time, the Huwei army had already pulled out the camp, and the cart moved forward. between.

After walking for an hour, the hundreds of Tartar cavalry who followed were hanging so close to each other. Several times Mu En pulled out the cannons, but those Tartar cavalry also learned their lesson. Seeing the cannons here, He ran to the distance in a hurry, but there was nothing he could do here. After a few times, Wang Tong simply let Mu En march as usual.

At lunch time, the rear and left sides of the team were followed by several hundred cavalry teams, and they were all hanging far away and not approaching.

The drivers of the Huwei camp were a little anxious and told the horses to go away. Wang Tong immediately noticed this move, and immediately said in a deep voice:

"Don't mess up, don't panic, slow down, Tan will lead you to picket, and offenders will be severely punished!!!"

General Tan hurriedly led people over to correct them, and the restless brigade stabilized. Wang Tong looked around with a sullen face, and said:
"Call Tan Bing and Li Hutou to my side!"

The guards responded and passed the order, but the two regiments hadn't come yet, but they heard the sentry on the watch tower behind him shout loudly:
"My lord, there is a group of cavalry rushing towards us behind us."

Wang Tong suddenly turned his head back, why are these Tartars so restless? There is still no chaos on his side, and hundreds of them are about to rush forward to die. Before Wang Tong gave an order, the sentry shouted again:

"Why are the Tartars shooting at them with arrows? These dozen or so people are not Tartars, they look like the clothes of our Daming..."
