Chapter 265 – I am a pawn of Western Qin
“Xiao Qi, are you on vacation today? Getting up so early?”
“Yes, I got paid yesterday, so I bought some meat for my parents and daughter-in-law to try!”
“You just got married, you need to spend more time with your bride at home!”
“Auntie Li is right!”
Ma Xiaoqi was carrying a knife of pork in his hand, greeting the neighbors, with a slightly shy smile on his face, but his back was straight, and his gaze carried the sternness that could only come from having a lot of human lives on his hands.
Into a hutong, not long turned into a small courtyard, an old woman has greeted, full of reproach: “And buy this much meat, why not buy some jewelry supplies for Rou Niang, for nothing with you!”
“Mother, my son bought it for Rou Niang at Li Ji Gold Shop when he came back yesterday evening!”
Ma Xiaoqi scratched his head, smilingly stuffed the meat to his old mother, “Make some meatballs to eat in the morning, son loves them!”
“What kind of person eats meatballs in the morning?” Lao Niang shook her head, but went to the kitchen with a smile on her face, her son has been in the army for eight years, and I heard that he has been a 10th captain in the West Qin army, with 10 big head soldiers under him, and he didn’t die in so many wars, isn’t it a blessing?
Ma Xiaoqi has already drilled into the east room, the big red happy words on the window sill have not yet been uncovered, inside a handsome girl is combing the new woman’s dress in the bronze mirror, see him come in, blush and lower her head.
“Rou Niang!” Ma Xiaoqi gave a giggle and went forward to hold the girl’s hand.
The girl blushed even more and gave him a blank look: “It’s broad daylight, letting father and mother see the joke.”
Ma Xiaoqi continued to giggle: “parents will not, our sedan chair to carry back the bride, hey ……”.
The girl was about to speak, outside the street suddenly came a burst of rapid hoof beats, a loud voice roared: “County King large point of view, Mu rest canceled, the school assembly, late person beheaded!”
The giggling Ma Xiaoqi’s face immediately changed, turning around and pouncing on a pair of armor hanging on the wall and the bald sheath of the army’s long sword.
“Xiao Qi!”
The originally delicate wife suddenly turned pale and clutched his hand without letting go.
Ma Xiaoqi no longer half of the silly joy, hard to break away from her hands, said in a deep voice: “There is no child’s play in the army, I’m afraid that the time for a decisive battle has arrived, if I die in battle, find a good man to marry, Ma Xiaoqi in the next life again!”
Said rushed to the armor, sharply dressed neatly, has changed from an ordinary youth to an iron-blooded West Qin low-ranking officer.
Then looked deeply at his tearful new wife, turned around and walked out of the room.
The aged parents in the courtyard were already standing under the old acacia tree with red eyes.
Ma Xiaoqi crossed over to his parents, stifled his head and walked a few steps, suddenly turned around and knelt straight down, heavily kowtowed a few times, a tear slipped from the corner of his eye: “The county king ordered troops, my son is going on a campaign, if I can’t come back, father and mother take care of your health, Xiaoqi will still be your son in the next life!”
Without any further attachment, he got up and left.
“Xiao Qi!”
Old Mother finally couldn’t hold back her bawling, staggering after a few steps, “Meatballs ……”
“Give me back! Let him go! West Qin son son the moment he joined the army will sell his life with the Jiang family county king, in the past days the army pay can not be half harsh, he ate the Jiang family’s rice!”
The old master looked serious as he rebuked, turning his head and couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Not far from the east room, the new wife has long been crying without strength.
……
Ma Xiaoqi sullenly walked out of the small courtyard, stopped in the middle of the alley for a moment, and looked at another small courtyard diagonally across the street.
There was also a lot of crying there.
“Father! My daughter will go to the army for you! You are already this old ……” Three teenage girls, their cheeks wet with tears, were pulling a forty-something year old Xuanjia Western Qin military man to their deaths.
That man took a deep breath, the face of the soft color blinking disappeared, heavily shook off the three daughters, rebuked: “said very confused words, father …… has found you in-laws, are merchants in the city, the future food and clothing without worry …… “
Sprinted a few steps, and then paused: “County King point troops, A father this life has long been sold to the County King, this go afraid can not return, you do not have a brother, in the future can not let people bully your mother!”
Said no more nonsense, out of the courtyard, saw the opposite waiting Ma Xiaoqi, froze for a moment, slightly nodded.
Ma Xiaoqi asked in a deep voice: “Uncle Kui, has the time come?”
“Has the time come?” others couldn’t understand, but the entire Western Qin army understood.
Sun Kui nodded heavily and gripped his belt sword tightly: “Brothers in the army are rumoring that the county king is going to take us to fight a big battle, the county king has never ordered troops, this time I’m afraid the time has come!”
The two men stopped talking, in a clash of armor, they walked out of the alley.
Outside on the street a centurion on horseback had gathered dozens of soldiers around him in a neat line.
“West Qin Army Wei Zi Battalion, Infantry 37th Hundred Pawns, 10th Chief Ma Xiao Qi returns!”
“West Qin Army Wei Zi Battalion, archer forty-six hundred pawns, ten long Sun Kui returns!”
The two men immediately entered the ranks, the brim of their iron helmets slightly pressed down, their eyes filled with the murderous aura that a veteran of a hundred battles should have.
The horse-riding Hundredth Commander’s face was icy cold, counted the number of people, and hissed: “Depart for the schoolyard!”
When the first leap horse away, behind Ma Xiaoqi and other dozens of soldiers to open a neat pace, iron armor “clanging” sound, followed closely.
The surrounding densely packed people, passersby, no matter what they were doing, uniformly stopped, silently, full of respect to see the soldiers away.
……
The schoolyard is not far away, a few moments to arrive, at this time already stood thousands of soldiers, a unicorn armor of the benefit of the general is already waiting.
Ma Xiaoqi, Sun Kui and others looked at the general riding a white warhorse, eyes full of respect, thousands of people benefit general Yan Repuzong, it is rumored that and the county king has a relationship, but he has never taken advantage of half a point, all rely on the actual, intrepid bravery and battle success!
At this moment, Yan Chuanzong’s cold face is full of murderous spirit, he has been in the Western Qin Army for a few months, and found that this is his final destination, no matter what the relationship with the Godfather is, it’s already in the past, and he didn’t even go to see the “old Godfather” one side, and he felt that the Western Qin Army is an army of iron, and the respect and inferiority of people should be there, and he hoped that the young boy, no matter what he is, would be a good man, and that he would be a great man, and that he would be a great man. He hoped that the young man, who had an excellent hand, would not need to be fed poison one day, but would also pat him on the shoulder and say, “Good job!
That’s right! His heart was extremely proud, there weren’t many people he admired in his life, but that county king was definitely the one he admired the most!
As for where exactly he admired, he was too lazy to say, and no one else understood!
“Cang-“
He drew his longsword and pointed it forcefully in the direction of the Western Qin Army’s main camp: “Advance!”
A thousand Mu Xiu’s army, with a rumbling sound, headed straight for the camp.
After half an hour, they arrived at the camp, only to see the wide Western Qin army camp, the tents all disappeared, and the blackened, unreadable 140,000 Western Qin army had already assembled, with guns and spears like forests, warhorses stepping on hooves, and bows and crossbows densely packed.
Hundreds of generals small flag, full of convergence together, gathered in a huge “Jiang” word marshal flag.
There were hundreds of West Qin generals standing under the tall banner.
At this moment, everyone is looking at the generals’ platform, there is only one person standing on the platform, golden vassal nine-winged armor, golden helmet and red tassel slightly swinging, straight posture, cold face, exudes a mysterious and powerful force.
That power, as if it could destroy the sky and the earth!
People were convinced for no reason, and filled with invincible faith!
Ma Xiaoqi, Sun Kui and other low-ranking officers of the Western Qin army had hot eyes and were trembling with excitement, while they were just one of the 140,000 elite soldiers in the Hundred Battles, and like them, the Western Qin soldiers who were tense and full of wariness were everywhere.
Yan Chuanzong led his men into the sea of Western Qin army, silently looked toward the figure on the stage, and said in a calm and firm voice that only he could hear: “I will be the leader of the Western Qin army,” he said.
“I, Yan Chuanzong, aide-de-camp of the Western Qin army, would like to follow the County King in his quest to conquer the world!”
