The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 138
After Huo Yu's wedding, most of the guests returned. Only Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu were invited by Huo Yu to attend the entrance ceremony of the Heroes' Soul Cemetery to accept the fallen soldiers.But before that, Huo Yu invited the two of them to participate in the "Shou Sui" event held in the military camp tonight. There was no reunion dinner in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Huo Yu knew that he should not rush to change the folk customs, and he should take one step at a time. right way.

In order to create an atmosphere, firecrackers cannot be made without materials, but Huo Yu thought of the method of burning bamboo, and the word "firecracker" comes from this.It's just that there is no bamboo in Liaodong. Fortunately, my uncle brought a lot this time, at least it is enough for tonight's New Year's Eve.Back in the backyard, Huo Yu found that the whole backyard was so busy that Huo Yu was in a cold sweat. He hurriedly stopped a maid and asked what happened. It turned out that the four wives were helping him prepare for the main event tonight.

The winter in Liaodong this year is extremely cold, but no matter how cold the weather is, it can't stop the passionate men in the barracks.Because tonight, the owner of Liaodong will bring the whole family to watch the New Year with them.They knew about Huo Yu's big wedding yesterday, but except for the generals in the army, no one else could participate. They have long heard that their lord has married four beautiful fairies. It would be worth it if they could take a look.

As the sky was getting darker, there was a sound of horseshoes coming from far and near, and the soldiers on duty outside the camp gate immediately entered the state of battle. One of the chiefs shouted loudly to the approaching horse team: "The important place of the military camp, idlers, etc. are not allowed to enter. .”

Seeing that the opponent had no intention of slowing down, the village chief said here: "Prepare for battle!"

"The lord is here, don't be rude!" A loud shout came from the darkness, and after a while a burly man walked out of the night.

"See Commander Dian!" The school captain immediately greeted the person who came forward and said.

Seeing that the guard was lifted, Dian Wei also changed his smiling face.Then Huo Yu got off the carriage, showing his face, otherwise the group of people would have to undergo strict inspections before they could enter.Huo Yu has made strict and detailed requirements on the entry and exit of the barracks since the beginning of his formation, and has already formed a set of unique regulations today.Coincidentally, Huo Yu, the head of the village on duty, still remembered it.

So he said: "Yu remember you called Er Gouzi, right?"

"Hey, my lord, remember me!" Today's Ergouzi is not Ergouzi in the past. He fought against Xianbei and was promoted to the post of village chief by virtue of his military exploits. These veterans who have experienced war are the most precious wealth in the Liaodong Army .

Huo Yu patted Er Gouzi on the shoulder thousands of times to encourage him, then the faint fire light forgot to forget around, and said again: "Er Gouzi, are all veterans on duty tonight?"

"Returning to my lord, I waited voluntarily!" Er Gouzi replied hurriedly.

"Okay, okay!" Huo Yu said two good words, then turned to the carriage and said, "Ladies, let's start at the gate of the camp!"

After Huo Yu finished speaking, the curtain of the car was lifted, and four wives, Yu'er, Zhang Ning, Mi Zhen, and Cai Yan stepped down one by one.Under Dianwei's signal, Qinweimen hurriedly took out the prepared pottery bowls from the carriage behind and distributed them to the soldiers at the gate of the camp one by one. Huo Yu took the wine jars that Dianwei had just taken out and poured wine one by one.And Cai Yan took the three daughters and gave out five baht to these soldiers with smiles on their faces. Although the money is small, it is also a kind heart.

"My lord, this... this." Er Gouzi was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.

When Huo Yu's four wives finished distributing the five baht money, all the soldiers knelt down and bowed together, "Thank you, mistress!"

Huo Yu raised his hand and said, "Without all of you, Liaodong would not be where it is today. A bowl of thin wine and a string of five baht coins are here to express my heartfelt wishes. Today, Yu makes an exception and please drink to the full."

"Gudu Gudu!" There was a sound of drinking for a while, and there was no other words for everyone to thank again after drinking, but there was a little more firmness in their eyes.Seeing this, Huo Yu laughed, turned around and followed the four ladies into the carriage and headed for the barracks.

Liu Yu in a carriage behind him said, "What a Huo Polu, what a Liaodong army! Look at the eyes of these soldiers, no wonder, no wonder, why worry about me being a big man with such elite soldiers! Brother Zurong, you and I old, old~”

"Haha, Brother Bo'an, Yu'er has his own skills in training soldiers, and there is a military rule that you and I can't even imagine, it has never existed in ancient times!" Liu Chong said triumphantly.

"Oh? What is the military regulation?" Liu Yu stared at Liu Chongyan with bright eyes.Cai Yong pricked up his ears on the side.

"Don't give up on the battlefield, don't give up!"

When Liu Chong said these words, there was silence in the carriage. In this era, it is not easy to say such words.When Liu Yu heard Gongsun Zan's battle report for the first time that day, he was stunned by the combat power of the Liaodong Army. It was the first time in so many years that he heard Gongsun Zan praise a certain army for being stronger than his Baima Yicong.Just now, the expressions in the eyes of those soldiers changed obviously, and it was not deliberate. In this way, Huo Yu's method not only won the morale of the soldiers, but also strengthened the belief of these soldiers.

Everything that happened at the gate of the camp was just a small episode. Inside the barracks, Gongsun Zan led a few people sitting in the central army's big tent to discuss in a low voice.Huo Yu's military training methods have long aroused his curiosity, so today he took this opportunity to let Guo Jia wait for him to enter early.It stands to reason that this method is impolite, but Guo Jia said that Huo Yu had already ordered him not to keep it secret from General Gongsun.But what Gongsun Zan didn't know was that everything he saw today was just a way of training recruits.

When Huo Yu and others arrived, everyone was naturally polite again. After everything was ready, the banquet began.What surprised Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu the most was that the banquet looked like a family banquet. The generals in the tent were laughing and joking, and the generals came with their female relatives, but the female relatives were all arranged in the back tent.What's even more strange is that after drinking for three rounds, Huo Yu personally started a barbecue feast outside the tent. The unique technique made the mutton on the grill disperse, and all the soldiers were eager to see it.

Of course, it is impossible to satisfy everyone. The mutton roasted by Huo Yu himself can only be eaten by generals, guests and people of merit.The most pitiful thing is that the girl Zhao Yu has been drooling and followed behind Huo Yu, which made Zhao Yun angry and funny.Guo Jia took this opportunity to retaliate with all his words, but Zhao Yu didn't take it seriously at all, he only had roast sheep and nothing else in his eyes.

Everyone praised the delicious meal, but Guo Jia, who had just been complacent, was frowning at the moment, and the only piece of mutton he was given was snatched away by Zhao Yu with a black face, but he had no power to resist, which made everyone laugh To put it bluntly: "One thing drops one thing!"
