Chapter 945: The Noble's Choice

The old hunter put his grandson's wrist on his wrist and felt his pulse look like, and opened his eyelids, making him open his mouth. After a long time, the old hunter said, "You can't die, that's not a poisonous fish."

The child's mother still couldn't believe it, "They really sent us food, weren't they poisoning?"

Gao Fu also felt that what he thought just now made sense, and immediately said, "Whoever poisoned and sent so much food? Mom, you wrongly accused the good man."

The nine-year-old sister whispered: "Mom, I want to eat poisonous fish too."

A gurgling sound of stomach intestines sounded inappropriately, and the woman hesitated, "Wait a minute, when it's dark, we'll eat fish."

After dark, Gao Gui still had nothing to do, so the family caught fire and happily took the fatty fish slices, mixed them with wild vegetables and cooked a large pot of canned wild vegetables and fish soup. After eating it, my stomach was bloated and I felt it aftertaste.

That night, the whole village of Marine was filled with a long-lost aroma of food. There was even an old man who was left alone. He cooked a large pot of corn and rice at one time and ate it with canned fish. As a result, he ate it very much and was so full. At first, everyone thought he was poisoned, but he was really panicked. Finally, he finally confirmed that he had eaten too much and was so full.

After dinner, the old and young people in the village gathered together to talk about this strange thing.

After returning home, Gao Fu's grandfather suppressed his anger and heard his grandson Gao Fu's words. His anger suddenly burst out, "What, you two bastards are going to be guides for the Qin people? No, are you still alive? You are only fourteen years old and your brother is only twelve. I can't let you eat the dead food. Your father hasn't come back yet. If you leave again, what should you do in this family?"

"Grandpa!" Gao Fu said hard, "Our whole family will starve to death. If the Qin soldiers had not given us this little food, we would not be able to hold on this month. But the food they gave could only be saved. The snow would still grow next year. What should we do during that period? Dig out weeds and kill prey, so we can't all starve to death. Besides, we just went to serve as guides for them and helped transport supplies. This is not a waste of work. They all agreed that each person has six dou of rice a month. With these foods, our family can survive this winter. Besides, we are also repaying our kindness. After eating Qin soldiers' life-saving food, it is also necessary to do something for them. What's more, they are also helping us fight those Khitan dogs and drive them away as soon as possible, so that we can restore peace here."

Since twelve-year-old Gao Gui has been determined to work and earn food for Qin Bing after eating canned fish. He said to the side: "Grandpa. In the past, the official army came to conquer us to serve Yao service, but there was only a little food. Now, we can exchange the food for Qin Army for several people. If we don't do such a good thing, others will rush to do it."

"I'm going to go. You can't go. You can't go. It's too young." The old hunter finally compromised. In such a season when the mountains were covered with heavy snow, the family had no food reserves at home, and they really couldn't hold on. There was an opportunity to earn food, so they couldn't let it go. But he was still a little suspicious of the Qin army's behavior. He was so old that he had never seen such an army. Even the Tang army came from Dongtu. It was not so good. He felt that he had to take this risk, so he could only go.

Grandparents and grandchildren were still arguing, and knocking on the door sounded again. The Corporal of the Martyr walked in, and there was a Qin soldier with the same epaulette next to him.

Corporal Jingwei bowed his head and bowed, and then said to them with a smile: "Old man, we are soldiers of the 9th Army of Qin. Under the leadership of the King of Qin, we have just defeated and driven away the nearby tribal soldiers. Next, we will continue to advance to the northern enemy-occupied area to recover more Bohai areas and rescue more Bohai people. However, in this season, the road is difficult, so we want to ask the village to organize some people to use sleds and ice plows to help us transport some supplies and food together. Of course, we will give compensation, and all of them are paid for. Please rest assured."

The old hunter agreed to this request and immediately went to the village to summon the remaining villagers. The old hunter was once a famous hunter in the village and had hunted tigers, so there were some people in the village who were looking forward to it. In addition, everyone had just received the sweetness of the Qin army. When they heard that the Qin army was paid for their work, and the reward was paid for the grain, everyone was excited and signed up enthusiastically. The village suddenly, no matter men and women, as long as they could move, they would go down to over ten years old or under seventy. In less than a while, the old hunter had already summoned more than one hundred people.

In recent years, the people in the occupied areas of the Bohai tribe have been in a very miserable life. Those who survived were all those who were lucky enough to be tortured by hunger. Who knew that in this heavy snow season near death, they actually received relief from the Qin army of the Central Plains thousands of miles away. In their hearts, the Qin army suddenly became the legendary army of kings and benevolent and righteous. In comparison, the official army of the Bohai Sea and the invading tribes have all become evil demons and evil ghosts from hell.

Many young teenagers, even chasing the Qin soldiers with iron-breasted armor, wanted to join the Qin army. In their opinion, the Qin army has majestic armor, gorgeous cloaks, exquisite military uniforms, and rich rations. They rode tall horses and held sharp weapons, and never had to worry about being cold and hungry. For those teenagers of the Marx who were hungry when their bodies needed the most, half hungry all day long, and had to be worried and afraid, beware of tribal troops coming to rob, and the officers and soldiers of the Bohai Sea came to force the conquest, the Qin army was simply the most longing for and the most ideal profession in their hearts.

The next morning, the old hunter was dressing up. After the final argument between the whole family, the old hunter agreed to the proposal of five men and women from all over the family to drive a car to make food for Qin Jun. The old hunter was in his sixties, but his body was still solid. His daughter-in-law was less than thirty and had three children. But the hunter's daughter was strong. If she hadn't been hungry in recent years, she would have been a good hunter who could drive a stone bow. Two grandchildren, one fourteen and the other twelve, had not been full in recent years, she had long strips, but she had no flesh, and she looked like two bamboo poles, but they were still quite strong. The only grandson was only nine years old and a little weak, but they were not at ease to leave her alone at home. Even if she could not count her wages at that time, she would have a care to keep her by her.

The little girl was very excited. She was sweeping the snow at the door. At this time, she saw several sledges flying towards her under the pull of several big horses. Two Qin soldiers holding guns at the door of the village chief’s house threw down the cigarette in their hands and greeted them.

"It's the noble man from the Gao family outside the mountain and the princes of his family." The girl recognized the person. The family's surname was Gao, but he was a Goguryeo noble. He was a famous landlord within a radius of hundreds of miles. The ancestors of the family heard that it was a royal branch of Goguryeo. When they came here at this time, they must have heard that the Qin soldiers were sending grain and recruiting local guides and civilians from the Bohai Sea. They must have wanted to earn the Qin soldiers' food. The little girl thought, and quickly turned around and ran to the yard to report the news.

By the fire pit in the village chief's house, Xu Jian, the leader of the captain who was roasting fire, heard the new corporal Na Qibo report that the Gao family and son on the other side of the mountain came, rubbed their hands and laughed: "There are many helpers when they are unrighteous, but few helpers when they are unrighteous. The ancients did not deceive me. Look, another Bohai nobleman came here on his own initiative, and we are becoming more and more like fish in water here."

There were two spears hanging on the shoulders of the Qi Bo, and he said seriously: "It is all his highness, wise and wise. He is well-planned and the leader is strong in command!"

The camp leader was very happy when he laughed a few times, got up and tidyed up his clothes, walked to the front of the robber, and slapped his shoulder a few times, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"I heard that you were injured last time and were worried about you. I didn't expect that the more you fell, the more you became more flexible you became. Boy, do it well, I'm very optimistic about you."

Less than a year after Qi Bo joined the army, he had been promoted from a private officer to a non-commissioned officer, even a junior non-commissioned officer. This promotion speed was very amazing. This kid had been promoted to a fifth-level soldier in less than a year and crossed the most important line between soldiers and non-commissioned officers. Many people may not be able to become a non-commissioned officer in their lifetime, but just a soldier. What's more, this kid's name has been registered with the King of Qin. Such a soldier, under Xu Jian, can be said to be the only one under such a soldier. Even if he is the leader of the camp, he must look at him with admiration and take good care of him. Maybe one day, this kid will fly into the sky and rise to the top.

In the main hall of the village chief's house, Xu Jian sat down with the visiting head of the Gao family. The chaobo poured tea in the house, and several young men of the Gao family stood politely behind his father.

After the tea, Gao Wancheng, the head of the Gao family, bowed slightly and said respectfully, "General Xu, I will not go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. I will come today. I will forgive the presumptuousness of coming here. I will disturb you. It is really urgent. I am really embarrassed."

This Goguryeo nobleman was very polite and spoke standard Tang Dynasty Mandarin, and the words revealed that he was a person who was very familiar with Middle-earth culture.

Gao Wancheng was in his early sixties, his temples and beard were gray, but his waist was straight, his movements were quick, he looked like a noble and famous, and he was the military aristocratic style.

Xu Jian returned the gift with a smile on his face: "Why did you say this? Please give me some instructions if you have any questions."

Gao Wancheng is a member of the Goguryeo tribe. His ancestors were indeed the Wang clan of the Goguryeo clan. He was originally a general in the Shangjing Shence Army of Bohai. Later, when he was old, he retired and returned home. In recent years, his hometown was occupied by the coalition forces, and his life was really hard. However, because of his identity, the tribal coalition forces wanted to use him to manage the Bohai people, so they could barely survive. But starting this year, life became even more and more difficult. The Khitans came to send grain and pay every now and then, asking them to do so, asking them to do so.

They were suffering and helpless. Last night, he heard that the Qin army had already fought. After they arrived, not only did not rob, but also sent relief food to the people in the village. He was also recruiting the people to help them transport supplies. It was not forcibly levying, but to pay for food, and other things, he was a little unbelievable. When he sent a few sons to inquire about the details, and combined with his understanding of the Qin army, he finally felt that the Qin army was indeed different from the Khitans.

He didn't wait for the Qin army to come to the door, but early in the morning, he came with several sons.
