Chapter 746 Three little ones
Originally, it was just a relaxing shopping trip, but unexpectedly caught the "big fish" called Teacher Xiao He, which made Tang Dao feel extremely happy.
After walking out of the teahouse, he met the old servant who brought Yue Yiman and Shitou brother and sister to go shopping. The usually cold and arrogant hammer actually accompanied him.
Seeing Tang Dao, Hammer might be a little surprised. Even his tall tail drooped. When Tang Dao went out, he wanted to follow him, but Tang Dao drove him back to guard the door. Is this considered a violation of military orders?
But the three little kids ran over and bowed respectfully to Tang Dao, and then playfully let Tang Dao take them to play. Especially the three-year-old Ximei, who rushed over and hugged Tang Dao's thigh. .
"Uncle, Ximei wants to eat cakes!" Ximei, who was picked up by Tang Dao with a laugh, put her fingers in her mouth and looked at the shops on the street intently, her saliva overflowing from the corners of her mouth.
Ximei was originally dark and thin due to malnutrition, but in the past month of following the independent camp, in addition to drinking milk from the **** sheep every day, she also had white rice porridge and minced meat to replenish her body, although she was not much whiter. , but that little face is visibly bulging.
It turned out that the tattered cotton-padded clothes he wore when he was with the army had been thrown away long ago. The cotton-padded clothes he bought at the market town he passed were a little too big. Later, after Yue Yiman and his son arrived, the ingenious woman spent two nights pushing the little girl to the side. The big cotton coat was changed to fit her, and she was given two braids every day. She also had a pair of big, watery eyes. Not to mention that several female nurses looked at her and couldn't help but want to kiss her. She was just a bunch of thick beauties. The big men couldn't help but pinch her little face when they saw her. The little girl is definitely the favorite of the entire Four Elements Group now.
Otherwise, why would that guy Hammer not even look at the gate of the regiment headquarters and just follow this little guy?
As for the fact that she hugged Tang Dao's thigh and wanted to buy cakes to eat, I'm afraid the poor little girl was scared of hunger before and wanted to eat when she smelled the fragrance, even though she already had a lot of toffee in the little pocket on her chest.
That was a ration that many soldiers were reluctant to eat themselves, so they willingly stuffed it into this little girl's hand just because she shouted "Thank you uncle" in a milky voice.
Although Tang Dao was usually strict with the officers and soldiers, in private he had an extremely gentle temper. He was especially fond of the three children who were marching with the troops. He not only ordered Leng Feng to send the Shitou brothers and sisters and the black sheep that had given birth to a lamb. The battalion headquarters also specially asked the baggage company to free up a cart to transport the three children and Yue Yiman's mother. The cart was covered with quilts, and the three children and a little lamb were on the marching road in the cold winter. But it wasn't frozen at all.
Even Lei Xiong said that if Tang Dao gets married in the future, he must be an extremely gentle father. He said that no one like him who has been a father is as careful as Tang Dao. He made Tantai Mingyue blush and went straight to Tang Dao glanced there.
In the evening, the two of them had a private conversation by the woods behind everyone's back. A reporter from Tantai University shyly asked, "Do you prefer a son or a daughter?" Tang Dao casually said, "It's best for a daughter to be as cute as you." , My son is as scoundrel as me!" Then, the pure love of Captain Tang was one step closer.
From holding hands to hugging waist.
That waist is so thin! For several nights, Tang Da Tuanzuo could remember the feeling of hugging that slender waist for the first time when he closed his eyes. Then, when the 22-year-old young man woke up in the morning, it was tragic.
The firepower of a young body is really not something that an old soul can control.
The three children who have become playmates are already very familiar with Tang Dao, who they meet often. Except for Shitou who is a little scared because he saw Tang Dao's rage that night, Yue Yiman, a five-year-old boy, and a three-year-old boy Duo Ximei is very close to Tang Dao, who often gives them toffee.
“Haha, okay! Just ask Uncle Erya to buy it for you.” Tang Dao laughed happily. "Erya, go and use my military salary to buy some delicious food for the three little guys. However, you can't compete with the big guys. It's best to have some braised pork. Come to Tantai in the evening and our regiment will have extra meals."
“Okay!” Erya agreed, stepping forward and pinching Ximei's chubby little face. "Ximei, Uncle Erya bought you delicious food, why don't you thank Uncle Erya?"
“That's Uncle Tang's money!” Ximei blinked and replied in a sweet voice.
This little girl was so naughty that Tang Dao and Erya both laughed.
“Captain Tang, congratulations on your promotion!” The old servant followed by the three little kids came over and congratulated Tang Dao with a smile.
"Uncle Han has been helping to take care of Shitou and Ximei during this period. Tang Dao hasn't given the opportunity to thank you yet!" Tang Dao looked at the old servant, his eyes flashed slightly, and his face was full of smiles.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Shi Shi is kind and kind, and Sister Xi is cute. Master Yue is a lot happier getting along with them. The old servant is also very comforted!" The old servant surnamed Han waved his hands and looked at the Shi Shi brothers and sisters. It is loving kindness and gentleness.
What he said was the real truth.
Although Yue Yiman is only five years old, he may have had a very strict upbringing since he was a child, and he just experienced the pain of losing his father not long ago. He is very polite and well-behaved to everyone he meets, but he is a bit too mature for his age. , losing a lot of the innocence and liveliness that a five-year-old child should have.
When Shitou and Ximei saw Tang Dao, they quickly ran over and bowed to him together with Yue Yiman. I'm afraid this little guy taught them, otherwise two little guys who grew up in the mountains would not know this.
However, the effect is always mutual. After half a month of getting along with the two "wild children" from the village and this child who grew up in a scholarly family, Yue Yiman has become more mature than when Tang Dao first met him. A little naughty.
Once after stationing in the field, Yue Yiman was instigated by Shitou and went with him to catch fish in a small river ditch outside the station in order to make a bowl of fish soup for his frail mother.
It's never a good idea to catch fish in the cold weather, even in a small ditch with water no deeper than knee-deep. It doesn't matter if you don't catch a few fish, but the hands, feet, and faces of the two little guys are all injured. He was cold to the point of turning red, and even suffered from wind chill the next day. Such medicines were scarce at the military medical office of the Independence Camp, so it was the old servant named Han who found some herbs in the mountains and boiled them down to cure the two naughty guys. .
For this reason, the woman wanted to punish her son with family law after he recovered from the illness. The reason was that he did not know how to cause trouble for the army during the march, or the old servant named Han found Tantai Mingyue and moved the Tang Dao. Dao came forward and said that children should be naughty at their age, and five-year-old children were spared a stir-fried shredded pork with bamboo strips.
"Uncle Tang, the weather is so good today, can I take Mandi to hunt rabbits in the wild? Hammer and Uncle Han are following us, we will definitely catch them. Mandi and I will treat the uncles and uncles to eat rabbit meat tonight." Seeing that Tang Dao was in a good mood today, Shi Shi came over to ask for it.
"Is there any meat to eat?" The little girl who just looked at the various foods in the surrounding shops was drooling and couldn't help but put another finger in her mouth.
That greedy little look is not only cute, but also heartbreaking.
If we look to the future and hear that rabbits are to be hunted for meat at this age, they are more likely to say: "Rabbits are so cute, why should we eat them?"
But in this era, as long as they can fill their stomachs, young children will never have such useless thoughts.
“Let's hunt rabbits!” Tang Dao looked up at the sky. It was still early in the evening, and then looked at Yue Yiman, who was silent but full of expectation, and the little girl who had already begun to drool as she fantasized about the delicious rabbit meat. He couldn't help but laugh. "Okay! Anyway, Uncle Tang and I have nothing to do today, so I will go hunting with you guys!"
The little guys couldn't help but cheered when they saw that Tang Dao not only agreed, but even wanted to go with them.
Shitou is from the mountains, and it was not just a whim that he wanted to take Yue Yiman to hunt rabbits in the wild, but it was indeed a good time to hunt rabbits.
Winter is the season with the least food. In order to survive the winter safely, hares usually use the fat they eat in autumn to strengthen their bodies. Therefore, hares are the fattest in winter and have the thickest fur.
"You guys wait a moment. I'll make arrangements and ask them to bring some horses. Since we're going to hunt, let's hunt a few more. Let's have a tooth ceremony together tonight." Tang Dao put down Ximei and patted her With his little face, he motioned for him to go to his brothers first.
Then I looked around and saw Potato with many bags hanging on his body. He was sweating and squeezed out of a shop. He said to the old servant named Han: "Uncle Han, please wait a moment!", and then strode over. .
The old servant surnamed Han nodded and said nothing more.
This is normal. For Tang Dao, a colonel commander who commands an army of more than 2,000 people, it is abnormal to abandon the army and take a few children to hunt without explaining anything. Besides, firearms may also be used! There are more than 2,000 members of the Four Lines Regiment stationed around the town. If the sentries are alerted and hundreds of people rush over, but they see their leader hunting rabbits, isn't that a joke?
Potatoes are naturally here to buy things, but he may be the only soldier who doesn't have to say goodbye.
The infantry company he belongs to is basically still in the hospital bed of the medical team when it can breathe!
It has been almost a month since the Battle of Mouse Mountain. Most of the brothers who were seriously injured in that battle have finally recovered. Even those who lost their legs and arms, after going through the difficult time of seeking life and death, are now recovering. Being able to eat, sleep and scold his mother, Tudou, who had received part of his bonus, thought of taking this opportunity to buy some delicious food and go to the medical team to satisfy the cravings of these old brothers. He even secretly bought a small jar of wine. Just wait until the evening to give each of those greedy old brothers a bite.
Who would have known that as soon as he violated military discipline, he was stopped by a man in the street. A closer look revealed that he was still Tang Dao in civilian clothes, which almost turned poor Tudou's little face into the color of potato.
It wasn't until Tang Dao grabbed him and asked him to help go to the regiment headquarters to inform the matter that he finally came to his senses. "Have you remembered everything I said?" Tang Dao confessed more than Tudou expected. He tried his best to repeat what Tang Dao said several times in his mind, and then nodded fiercely.
"Okay, go quickly! Also remember to ask Lu Sanjiang to bring me two carbines when he sends three horses." Tang Dao patted Tudou on the shoulder and sniffed slightly. "Also, the wine your son bought is not good. Tell your brothers that when we get to Xuzhou, I will buy some good wine for the brothers to drink."
Podato ran away without looking back.
If he doesn't run away, he's afraid of being whipped. That's a ruthless captain who can even whip himself. It doesn't matter if he gets whipped, but if those brothers and uncles who are still lying half-lying get whipped, they will die.
Tudou, who was eager to escape Tang Dao's sight, reported the news very quickly. Within a quarter of an hour, Lu Sanjiang and two cavalrymen each rode a war horse and trotted over. They dismounted and gave Tang Dao a military salute, then handed the reins to Tang Dao, " Regiment leader, do you want a cavalry company to **** you?"
“There are no Japanese here. I'm going to hunt rabbits and I have to protect an egg! Why, there are tigers here!” Tang Dao waved his hand.
Lu Sanjiang glanced at the old servant surnamed Han who took the reins on the other side, "But."
Obviously, Lu Sanjiang, the cavalry company commander, felt that the old man named Han was an outsider and it was okay to be at the station. However, Tang Dao was still worried about leaving the station.
“But what the hell, I just say it's okay!” Tang Dao glared.
Lv Sanjiang could only put his legs together: "Yes!"
He took his two soldiers and turned around and left.
"Uncle Han, don't be surprised. These soldiers under my command are straightforward." Tang Dao smiled at the old servant named Han who was suspected by the cavalry company commander.
“Captain Tang's words are serious. I can only say that Commander Tang is very popular among the officers and soldiers in the army. With such an integrated body of officers and soldiers, it's no wonder that he has repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats!” The old servant surnamed Han looked kind and showed no signs of surprise.
“Is there any problem with Uncle Han riding a horse?”
“When I was young, I rode a horse when I traveled all over the country, but I haven't ridden a war horse much!” the old servant surnamed Han replied.
"Then let's set off!" Tang Dao leaned down and hugged Ximei, put one hand on the saddle, put one foot on the stirrup, and with a slight exertion, he got on the horse.
Putting Ximei in front of him, squeezing his legs slightly, the war horse walked along the long street towards the outside of the town with small steps.
“Ride a big horse! Brother, Brother Man, come quickly!” Ximei, who was riding a horse for the first time, clapped her little hands happily.
Erya had never ridden a horse before, but since she became Tang Dao's orderly, she has ridden this horse a lot. Although she can't rush and charge at full speed like the cavalry, it still doesn't matter if she rides a horse and advances at a medium speed. First, He put the stone on the saddle, and then sat on it. As soon as he let go of the reins, the horse and two people ran after Tang Dao.
"Grandpa Han, you should hurry up! Brother Shitou and Sister Ximei have run far away." Yue Yiman, who had not yet mounted the horse, couldn't help but urged anxiously as she saw the two horses running more than 20 meters away.
The old servant surnamed Han smiled slightly, held the child in his arms, put his feet in the stirrups, and with a little effort, he got on the horse. His ease and ease were not at all in line with his age of fifty or sixty.
If you look carefully at his body rising and falling with the trotting war horse, you should also know that his knowledge of equestrian skills is by no means just a matter of riding in his youth, as he said.
At least, he is better than the half-bucket-water Erya and even Tang Dao who is proficient in equestrian skills.
However, Tang Dao, who was riding in the lead, seemed to turn a blind eye to this phenomenon.
The landform of Lingbi County is commonly known as "big flat and small flat", which means that the overall landform is plain. In fact, there are many isolated hills and slopes in the interior. The famous Battle of Haixia took place here.
This place has not yet been affected by the war, and the grain in the fields has been harvested. Looking at it, it looks empty and desolate. But only when you get close to these relatively fertile lands, you will know that in spring, there will be hope of green here again.
However, Tang Dao knew that the Japanese army's frontline would soon be directed here. Within a month, this place would become a battlefield, and another battle would begin here.
The flames of war will sweep through most of China's most fertile lands in the next two years.
After all, the three children had no experience of riding horses, so Tang Dao and the others suppressed the speed of the horses and advanced in the fields at a medium to low speed. But this was the first time in their lives for the three children, and even the cold wind that hit their faces was unbearable. I don't feel cold anymore.
Chai Zi also seemed very excited, jumping into the fields and jumping onto the field ridges. Since joining the army, Hammer may have rarely had such a relaxing moment!
After running for nearly 40 minutes, Tang Dao stopped at the foot of a small hill.
It was said that they were hunting, but in fact they were just watching Hammer's performance. Hammer, who had hunting experience in the mountains, quickly found a rabbit hole in a deserted grassland. Erya was holding Ximei, and Yue Yiman was under Shitou's command. He started pulling hay to make a fire and filling the two rabbit holes he found with smoke, while the hammer watched eagerly from the side.
Sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, a plump rabbit jumped out of another hole more than ten meters away, and Hammer, who had been waiting for it, chased after him.
The hammer that can kill a wolf and a green dog is not only strong enough, but also has an astonishing running ability. He bit a rabbit before chasing it 30 meters, and came back to ask for credit from the three children.
“The hammer is great!”
“Long live the hammer!”
“Reward rabbit legs tonight!”
The three children happily jumped up to praise Hammer, and Ximei even used her little hand to rub Hammer's neck.
The hammer is so beautiful, with a long grin and a long tongue.
Tang Dao couldn't help but laugh.
No wonder Hammer gets along so well with these three little dogs. No matter how awesome the dog is, it still needs someone to pamper it!
The Four Elements Group is full of iron-blooded soldiers, and the way to express their love is to give them food. At most, they can rub the dog's head as hard as Li Jiujin did. How can they not be like these three little ones, who not only praise them wildly, but also fight with their little hands? If you pet the dog, I'm afraid the Tibetan Mastiff will become gentle in front of them!
With the first trophy in less than a quarter of an hour, the three children were naturally more confident. After hanging the dead hare on the horse, they followed the hammer to search farther away.
With Erya following and Hammer there, Tang Dao was naturally not worried. He led the three horses to a **** with some grass and let them graze on the hillside. He turned back and said to the old servant named Han who was watching the children from a distance. : "Uncle Han, don't worry, just let them play here for a while, and you can take a rest too."
The old servant surnamed Han smiled slightly when he heard this. He looked back at Tang Dao from a distance, with a half-smile on his face.
“Captain Tang, what do you want to know? You might as well just say it, it's pretty quiet here.”
