PS: Thanks to book friend hjhking for the tip.
Qi San put his hands in his sleeves and stood behind Li Dashen. Wang Gu, who was standing at the end, was hunched over and his neck was shrinking, not daring to look at the leader in front.
The chief frowned subconsciously when he saw Li Dashen's careless look in front of him.
If someone dared to stand like this in the martial arts hall, the teachers of the martial arts hall would have kicked him away.
Facing a refugee who came to Lingqiu, he couldn't blame him too much and said directly: "I ask the three of you why you didn't go to the east end of the village to gather. You are now all heavy soldiers and no longer ordinary people. ”
He looked left and right again.
The nearby refugees were looking curiously at the place where they were.
Due to the presence of soldiers carrying the tiger-character flag at Li Dascar's home, the refugees did not dare to approach, but only dared to watch from a distance.
"What a baggage soldier? How come I don't know that I have become a baggage soldier? Commander, I think you are mistaken. These days, who doesn't know that only the most unpromising people go to be soldiers? I have food and drink." , Why do you want to be a soldier like this, hiccup!" Li Dashen shook his head and said with a wine burp in his mouth.
The smell of alcohol hit my nose.
"This is how much alcohol you drank." The director raised his hand and fanned it in front of his face a few times, fanning away the smell of alcohol coming out of Li Da Scar's mouth.
Li Dashen burped again and said, "If the mayor is fine, come with me to the house and have a few drinks. Not to mention, the sorghum brewed by your Tiger Character Banner tastes really good. It's better than what I used to drink." The sorghum brew mixed with water is much stronger."
"What are you drinking?" Li Chang's face sank and he said, "Li Dashen, don't act like a rogue here again. You signed and paid for it yesterday. Do you know what the consequences will be if you don't go?"
Li Dashen snorted coldly and said: "Chief, please don't scare me. When did I sign and sign? I don't even know how to read. I'm afraid someone has deceived me. Since you are the head, you have to give me some money." I want to be clean."
"No one forced you when you signed the signature yesterday. Many people present saw it. It's useless if you don't admit it now. I would like to advise you, go to the east end of the village and report to Captain Qin now. Nothing happened. Otherwise, you will be responsible for all the consequences." Li Chang's voice turned cold.
Hearing this, Li Dashen's face shook and he said: "I've been polite to you these days. I really thought I was afraid that you would make an exception. Let me tell you, I'm not scared by others. I really think I'm I don’t know what’s going on with the heavy troops of your Tiger Flag, but let me tell you, no one will have a good time if you piss me off.”
"Good words can't persuade a damn ghost." The leader snorted, then looked at the two people behind Li Dashen and said, "Qi San, Wang Gu, you two are going to report to Captain Qin now. , it is better to stay here with Li Dashen, especially you, Wang Gu, you are different from the two of them. You are the one who takes care of the family. If something happens to you, your whole family will be afraid. It’s hard to survive.”
He looked at Qi San and Wang Gu.
Qi San and Wang Gu looked at each other, and then looked at Li Dashen, with emotions on their faces. Wang Gu even took two steps forward.
At this time, Li Dashen turned around and glared at the two people fiercely, saying: "Who the hell dares to move? You have forgotten what I told you."
Qi San, who had just taken a step, retracted his outstretched leg, and Wang Gu also hesitated.
Seeing this, the head of the village said: "Both of them can only feed themselves and the whole family is not hungry. You, Wang Gu, are the breadwinners of the family. You must stand with Li Da Scar and be a deserter." Destiny.
"I'm afraid, they don't dare to do anything to you as long as I'm here." Li Dashen said to Wang Gu.
Wang Gu's face showed a look of struggle.
At this moment, a woman came over, pointed at Wang Gu behind Li Dashen and cried and scolded: "Wang Gu, you are a heartless person. You drink and eat meat by yourself, and you don't care about us two." It's life or death, if you don't come over, I'll crash to death here."
As she spoke, she looked around with her eyes, as if she was really looking for a suitable place to hit him.
"Don't, don't, don't. Isn't it enough for me to be a heavy baggage soldier?" Wang Gu walked out from behind Li Dashen with a grimace, jogged a few steps to the woman's side, and comforted her.
"Bah! Useless thing." Seeing that Wang Gu had betrayed him, Li Da Scar spat fiercely on the ground.
The commander looked at Qi San again and said, "Qi San, what about you? Are you going to report to Captain Qin at the east end of the village, or are you like Li Dashen and not working as a heavy soldier?"
"I..." Qi San hesitated for a moment, then said immediately, "Can I not be this heavy soldier? I heard that you, this heavy soldier, are going to the grasslands to fight against the Mongolian Tatars. I don't want to die."
As soon as he said this, Wang Gu, who was trying to comfort his aunt, looked bitter.
It was because he was afraid of going to the grasslands to fight the Mongols that he agreed to not be a heavy transport soldier with Li Da Scar. Now that his mother-in-law made such a fuss, he could only agree to become a heavy transport soldier.
"What? I'm going to the grassland to fight the Tatars!" The crying woman stopped crying and stared at Wang Gu with wide eyes.
Wang Gu nodded with a wry smile.
"I heard that the Tatars are very ferocious. If you, the boss, are going to fight the Mongolian Tatars, how will my children and I survive?" As she spoke, the woman suddenly burst into tears.
Wang Gu hurriedly tried to persuade him.
"You know quite a lot." The chief looked at Qi San, and finally his eyes fell on Li Da Scar, and said, "Li Da Scar, it was you who told them about this!"
"Yes, that's what I told them." Li Dashen said with his chin raised.
At this time, Aunt Wang Gu came to the Li Chief and said: "Li Chief, I know that if you take me into custody, you will have to work as a heavy soldier, but can I not go to the grassland? I and my children still rely on my man to support you. Without my man, my children and I would have no choice but to starve to death."
The man is the backbone of the family, and the woman persuades her man to be a heavy soldier, but she does not want her man to die outside in the war.
"Sister-in-law, I don't have any say in this matter. I'm just the head of the village, and I don't have that much power to arrange Wang Gu." The head of the village shook his head towards the woman, and then said, "But don't worry, sister-in-law, even if Wang Gu really goes there one day, If we go to the grassland, there may not be any trouble, and our Tiger Character Banner has special care for the families of soldiers who died in the battlefield. As long as the Tiger Character Flag exists for one day, we will never let the families of soldiers who died in the battlefield starve to death. "
The Tiger Character Banner has its own compensation plan for fallen soldiers, but they only give them a few taels of silver and send them away.
Tiger Flag will also make appropriate arrangements for the elderly at home of fallen soldiers. In order to prevent the elderly from being unable to work due to old age, they will arrange some work such as raising chickens, ducks or raising pigs.
These days, few elderly people from poor families can live a long life. Basically, if they can’t work anymore, they will just wait to die. Raising chickens and ducks is much easier than farming. Even if they really can’t move for a day, the Tiger Flag will still produce food. Don’t let the elderly go without food.
