The capital of Xijun is in Xijun, and it is considered to be among the rich. Although the people are not all rich and noble, and they go out all day wearing silk and brocade, they can still be regarded as having more money every year. The women in the family occasionally have hairpins that they are happy to see. Being able to purchase several pieces of rouge no matter what, in the chaos of the entire West County, is already a sight that is envied by the people in other places.
Logically speaking, the waiter in the restaurant should have more experience anyway, but the scene like this now made the waiter standing behind the cabinet at a loss. It took him a while to recover, and he apologized repeatedly, "It's rare for the military master to come here." , it should be easy to serve, but in our small building, the liquor is especially outstanding. It is the brewing recipe that my family obtained from Dayuan in the north in the early years. An ordinary person can drink a bowl of wine before going out to face the wind. On the contrary, people jokingly call it a knife in the wind; you see, all the previous county magistrates have issued orders to ban alcohol and drink less. But if you have tasted our wine, I am afraid that people will notice the clues when you go out. The business is already bleak. If the higher-ups hold me accountable, I’m afraid I’ll have to find a new job. I’d like to ask the military master to think twice.”
It's not just the waiter's boast. This nameless restaurant without a plaque was indeed very popular in the city at the time, attracting countless drunkards to rush in, drink a bowl of the famous restaurant, and then go out. After taking a few steps, he staggered and collapsed into the alley. Even a rude man who often drank too much could barely reach the entrance of the alley. He lost any sense of clarity and fell to the ground drunk. Therefore, he was indistinguishable in this city.
But times have changed, and now in the capital of Xijun, there are fewer and fewer people who are good drinkers. If they accidentally drink two glasses of wine, they naturally don't want to go to this unknown building and drink a bowl of strong wine. What's more, it is said that the person who stabbed in the wind in this unknown building showed a lack of grace after drinking. No matter how much alcohol he drank, he could still become drunk. Most of the time, it was because the wine was unclean and had a lot of poison in it that could make people dizzy. Medicinal materials are highly prized, and even though there has never been any trouble caused by strong alcohol in the city, the number of diners coming and going is becoming increasingly sparse.
Jia He smiled disdainfully and said, "If you go to a good restaurant and are not afraid of shallow-bellied men, the soldiers and armors that I brought out with your own hands can still make you dizzy with a bowl of wine in your restaurant? Even if it is arranged, if it is Someone is drunk, so I'll pay for the drink." Immediately, ignoring the waiter's embarrassed expression, he stepped upstairs.
The furnishings in the building are indeed a bit old. Jia He had never known the knowledge of furnishings before, but since he has been with Lin Pixiu for a long time, he has heard a lot about them while chatting. Looking at the details in the building The handrails on the table are of an old style from six or seven years ago, and I couldn't help but sigh.
In the imperial city, let alone one of the largest restaurants. Everywhere you looked in the restaurant, the railing tables, and the people on the stage talking about dramas and calligraphy must all be famous actors with extraordinary skills. I'm afraid he would have to congratulate himself. The salary saved in one year can't even buy half a railing, let alone a familiar woman who sings and plays strings in the same building, and has jewels on her chest. Then look at everything in this unknown restaurant. It seems that the upper layer of dust is enveloped, and it is inevitable to be dumb.
"Why are you standing outside? Do you want me to go out in person to invite you?" Jia He calmed down his expression and turned to look outside with squinted eyes, "I really feel that I have gained enough military merit from this trip, so I started to act like a general. It’s great.”
The old soldier in front of him hesitated, but still took a step forward and replied in a deep voice, "Successive governors of the West County have made it clear that alcohol is prohibited in the army. If something happens while drunk, the blame will be shared with the adults. How dare we."
Jia He narrowed his eyes that were already very blurry again, and replied playfully, "I have walked through the forest of swords and guns, but I am afraid of drinking? I have visited the entire West County. If I am not even allowed to drink, Why should I sacrifice my life for others? This is bullshit; if Mr. Lin really takes the blame, I will bear all the blame."
"Still have any doubts?" Jia He picked a seat facing the door of the restaurant and sat down directly. He saw that less than half of the old soldiers remained, but no one spoke, so he waved his hand and said four words lightly.
"Remove your feet and open your armor."
Hundreds of people were silent, lined up in a line, and tied their horses around the restaurant. The two horses were separated by a fist, which was enough to cover the entire deep alley. They then untied their iron armor and hung it on their shoulders, and then stepped into the building one by one.
Except for the sound of horses hooves walking down the alley and the clanging of armor, there was no other sound. Many old soldiers had nearly half of their armor broken off. Their robes were wrapped in cloth and were still bloody, but their movements were not slow at all.
The waiter who came back from drinking saw hundreds of people walking in, and his eyes widened.
The capital of Xijun has been prosperous for a long time, and it has never produced soldiers with such power.
The food and wine were ready, and everyone in the restaurant was almost out of breath, and they dispersed to rest. There were thirty or fifty tables, and almost the entire two floors of the restaurant were full. With so many dishes, Been busy for nearly half an hour.
The soldier at the table just straightened his body and sat upright.
"The drinks and dishes are ready, but it's not the time to drink and drink." Jia He stood up, took out six waist badges from his arms, and raised them to his eyebrows, "For many years, even if he is eight hundred years old, The most superficial ones have probably been in the army for more than ten years. You have to drink wine, but you can't forget the glory of your brothers and feet."
"In Huan'an, when we crossed Panma Ridge for the first time in a tough battle, one man killed seventeen horses. He was in front of the battle. He was severely wounded by more than a dozen knives and died with his sword. Before he died, he told his colleagues that the dry food today was too hard."
"Yang Baichen, in the battle at the Dongguan Mountain Gorge, he blocked seven arrows for two people and cut down dozens of bandits. He received countless knives. When the fighting stopped, he could no longer distinguish his face. He was almost cut in half with this piece of paper. I could barely recognize the appearance of the waist badge, but it was buried at the bottom of the valley. He was a man of few words when he was alive, and he didn't leave a single word."
"Wu Qi, in the same battle at Dongguan, he quickly lured the enemy, was ambushed by thieves, was bound by a noose, and cut off one of his arms. When he returned to the formation, he fell off the horse and died, and there was no trace of blood all over his body." He looked at his waistband, but he smiled a little, "This boy is the youngest among the old soldiers. I heard that he was an abandoned child who was thrown in front of the military camp. He had a surname and a name of his own, even though he was only a young man. Guan, you are really an old pawn, and you have the very opposite temperament with me."
"Before I went out to the army, I mentioned that I wanted to visit the school. Listening to the sound of books inside, I felt a little itchy for some reason."
Six waist cards, six lives, Jia He told them one by one.
"After every battle, I want you to take out the waistband of the corpse, so that you can have a good drink today. Don't just care about yourself. Since 800 people are going out together, when it comes to drinking, no one can be left behind. "
Jia He picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
"Jingpaoze."
Hundreds of bowls were stabbed into the wind, and all of them were inserted into the belly, burning the old soldier to tears.
