Women lie on a mattress stuffed with cotton, which may be a rarity in other places. Most people still sleep among wheat straw, but many families in Pei County already have a cotton bedding.
Parting is always sad.
King Shuqing sighed and said, "I don't know either. Let me sing you a song about being in the army. I'm talking about those who served on the frontier in the past."
He recalled the songs he used to sing, and sang softly for fear of disturbing the child when he woke up.
Plucking Wei, Wei also stops.It is said to return, and the age is endless.Extravagant room extravagant home, because of the hunger.Not to mention Qiju, because of the hunger.
Plucking Wei, Wei is soft.Said to return, said to return, the heart is also anxious.Worry is fierce, hungry and thirst.I am undecided, and I will be hired.
Plucking Wei, Wei just stopped.Said to return, said to return.Wang Shi is extravagant, and he is not open to it.Worried and guilty, I can't do it!
Pervi Ho?Wei Changzhihua.What is Belus?The gentleman's car.Both the army and the four-mu industry.How dare to settle?Three wins in January.
Drive the other four males, four males.The gentleman depends on the villain.Four male wings, like a fish suit.Don't you quit daily?Lynx hole spines!
In the past, I have gone, Yang Liu Yiyi.Now let me think about it, rain and snow are falling.The road is late, full of thirst and hunger.I'm sad, don't know I'm sad!
In fact, this song was not sung much in the army, but it was written in a female voice, and it was sung more often.
For example, the song "A Gentleman in Service".
The roosters perched in the grove, and at nightfall, the sheep and cattle came down.A gentleman is in service, so why not think about it!
When a gentleman is in service, he does not spend the day and the moon, so why is there a man?The chickens live in Jie, and the sun is at night, and the sheep and cattle are enclosed.
When a gentleman is in service, there is no hunger or thirst!
King Shuqing sang a lot of poems in the military middle school, but he likes this one the most, but this one is so well written and straightforward, if he sings it to his wife at this time, I am afraid that the tears that his wife is holding back will flow down .
It was a rare opportunity to talk about these things with the woman at home, so he explained the meaning of each sentence according to what he learned when he was learning to sing, and the woman sang along a few lines in a low voice. I didn't want to wake up the child, so I had to get up and go to see the child.
After tossing until midnight, the woman was also tired, like a frightened kitten, curled up in his arms and fell asleep, pillowed on his arm, as if she was afraid that he would slip away in the middle of the night.
King Shuqing thought that he had to feed the horses at night, and after he left, he didn't know if his younger brother could be as diligent as himself.
So he turned over slightly, pulled his arm out, went to add grass to the stable, stroked the smooth fur of the pony, thinking that when he came back, the pony should grow up.
Sitting next to the stables, I couldn’t fall asleep. It wasn’t the nervousness of fear of war, but an indescribable emotion. Looking at the moon hanging in the sky, I scolded the barking dog who might have misheard the movement a few times.
Early the next morning, he didn't sleep much. His younger brother had already led the horse to the river to drink and came back, put on the stirrups and saddle, and let him ride to Peiguo, and he would be back soon anyway.
Temperament was wrapped up and tied to the saddle, and he didn't have to worry about parting. He got on the horse after eating, and his family followed him on his knees, talking to each other.
He bent down and hugged his wife, and said a few words.
The four people in the village community who received the order to go to Peiguo with him also came, and after calling him, he nodded with his family, and finally didn't know what to say.
The family didn't say anything.
But he hummed, and didn't know who he was promising.
With his legs clamped, he followed the horses of the rest of the village. He looked back and found that his family was still standing by the side of the road. He yelled to his family to go back. The four people in the village commune chatted.
When he arrived in the village, he met more than 60 people who went to Peiguo with him, half of whom he knew, and they were all serving in the army.
If there are many people in company, they walk slowly. They stay in the village at night, in groups of four or five, and each go to someone else's house to sleep overnight.
King Shuqing and four people from his own village took out the dry cakes and some dried fish prepared by the family, warmed them up, and ate them with the family.
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man had heard of King Shuqing's name, and he had been pestering King Shuqing to tell him what happened under the city of Shangqiu back then.
This child should be the only child in the family, and the elderly in the family are already in their 40s and are already aging.
At the dinner table, I said with emotion: "This is a big battle!"
Hearing what his father said, the young man immediately retorted: "What is war? It's called benefiting the world! There are points in war, it's a just war and an unjust war..."
Before he finished speaking, the old man picked up the stick next to him and cursed: "I will let you benefit! I will let you benefit!"
After finishing speaking, he pretended to beat the child, but the young man dodged for a while, with a playful smile on his face, knowing that his father was reluctant to beat him.
The old man sighed and said, "I'm the only child who survived. It's only been a few years? He's lucky, thinking about going to war all day..."
A few people laughed, and the king said lightly: "You don't have to worry, now they are registered, and the only child in the family does not need to join the army. Even if this child goes, he won't want it."
He looked at the energetic young man and knew that there are a lot of young people like this in the village today, so he said, "Boy, it's nothing to benefit the world. You don't have to join the army to benefit the world. If you really use people like you When we go up, we have to wait until we are all dead."
"However, in the battle of Tengdi, none of us survived. It is not easy for the princes of the world to force us to serve in the army as an only son like you."
"Who wants to fight? Isn't it because you don't want to fight in the future? If you work hard at home and pay food and taxes, it will also benefit the world..."
The old man was relieved after hearing this, and the young man wanted to say something, but the topic was misplaced. They chatted about the crops, and after dinner, they went to rest.
Early the next day, King Shuqing and others set off on the road, and it seemed that all the villages knew about the big battle.It's just that there is no panic, more enthusiasm and less worry.
When we arrived at Peiguo, there was already a bustling crowd. Patrols in black uniforms kept coming and going on the street. Hundreds of people gathered here from various villages and townships in the county.
Everyone has different whereabouts. The four people who came with King Shuqing first went to the military camp outside, and he also reported a report, and then shared with the Mohist representatives of the village community who were going to attend the communication meeting in a few days. Arrived at a lodging place in Peiguo Nei.
I took the paper order and was assigned a seat, chatted with a few acquaintances, and then went out to eat and drink.
In the next two days, Mohist representatives from various villages gathered first, and the Xuanyi Department talked about some content of the September Tongyi Meeting, and explained the significance of this battle of "benefiting the world".
Then more than 300 democratically elected representatives from various villages, townships and counties gathered together, and amid bursts of fanatical applause, they passed a resolution to wage a decisive battle with Yue.
Among them, the military service and labor service that each township and village community needs to undertake will be promulgated on the next day.
This has already been planned, it is the last process of gathering public opinion, and it is also to fully publicize the necessity of this battle.
As many people expected, this time a real big battle is going to be fought. Pei County, which has lived a stable life for many years, has carried out a full-scale mobilization for the first time.
In the village where King Shuqing lives, there are 120 households, those who have served and those who have been conscripted, as well as some young people who need to serve this year, and those who deliver food and grass to be civilian husbands...the list has a total of 63 people.
It also needs to bear the additional support of seven horse-drawn carts and eleven ox carts.
Their villages are special. One is the village controlled by the Mohists earlier, and the second is that although the number of households in the village is only 120, the population is larger and wealthier, and the burden of sharing is also greater.
In fact, on average for the entire county, it is roughly the same as one out of four households.
At the meeting to discuss the resolution, King Shuqing still put forward some opinions from the village community, which were finally passed after discussion.
Because of the Shiwu system and the system of three or five households sharing cattle and horses, all villages in Peixian County have reduced taxes by one-third within two years.
A series of death benefits, post-death tax reduction policies, etc. were also promulgated subsequently.
In the next two days, King Shuqing was not allowed to go home, but was ordered to report to the military camp outside Peiguo.
The four people who came with him were also specially recruited for the same purpose, which was to expand the number of volunteers.
In the army, Shuqing Wang received his position as the Mohist representative of the newly formed Seventh Brigade of the Pei County Volunteer Division.
To his surprise, he was not assigned to the Spear Company, but was assigned to the Musketeer Company.
The Seventh Brigade is just a blank slate at this time, a brigade with a full quota of 500 people. At this time, there are only more than 100 people, most of whom are veterans or ink scholars.
King Shuqing used to be the commander of the Sima, under the jurisdiction of 25 people, and now he is assigned as the Mohist representative of the company under special circumstances, which can be regarded as a promotion.
Of the hundred people in the Seventh Brigade in the military camp, King Shuqing recognized more than ten of them.
The Lushuai is an old ink man, and he had dealt with King Shuqing during the Battle of Shangqiu.
The Mohist representative of the brigade was a young man, and King Shuqing also recognized that it was the Liuzhi who joined the Mohism together with Shi back then.
This is not only because of the appropriateness, but also because when Pengcheng quelled the nobles' rebellion, Liuzhi did a great job and killed many people, and his reputation in Pengcheng was not small.
His musketeer company is still empty now, waiting to be replenished, a group of active soldiers will be dispatched, and a lot of "novices" will be added, after all, the number of musketeers is not so large.
The company commander is a person who speaks some weird dialects. King Shuqing communicated with him and found out that this person came to Pei County with Mo Zhe after the First World War in Niu Lanyi.
The six Sima chiefs under him are all former corps leaders, one is also a veteran who participated in the Battle of Shangqiu, and two new Mohists will become corps leaders after the number of people added in the future.
Now most of the brigade are veterans or Mohists, the only few young people are natives of Peiguo who are flute and drummers.
After we made it up, we got acquainted with it in the camp. In the evening, the number [-] people of this currently empty brigade got together.
King Shuqing saw Shi, Gongzaoye and others, and they spoke a few words.Most of the high-ranking Mohists who came forward were well-informed and knowledgeable, with a good memory, and greeted many people inside.
At the meeting, Shi Shi told everyone that by the beginning of October, a group of volunteers will be transferred from the current volunteers to fill them up. Including the returned veterans, there will be a total of 100 people, and the remaining [-] people will need to be paid this winter. A young man who begins his service.
Not long after the lecture, King Shuqing realized that something was wrong... This brigade was a little different from the volunteer divisions he knew in the past. The number of musketeers was a bit large, and four companies were actually musketeers.
He looked at Shi who was asking everyone on the stage what they thought, and stood up and said, "Shi, I... I have held a spear, but I have never touched a musket..."
