Pig Killer

Chapter 241

"Be patient. Watch your son play and you'll know. They are not just kicking randomly. They are coordinating with each other." Shen Hui'e said to Huang Zhongchang with a smile.

"What are you keeping in suspense?" Huang Zhongchang looked straight into her eyes and said.

"Seeing is believing!" Shen Hui'e said with her beautiful peach blossom eyes rolling around, and sighed softly, "It's been a while since the children have played ball. There are no pigs to kill, and no pig bladders."

"What's so fun about that thing?" Huang Zhongchang said with contempt.

Shen Hui'e rolled her eyes at him unhappily, "You'll like it."

"It's just a kid's toy." Huang Zhongchang said in disbelief.

"You'll know later." Shen Hui'e looked at him with clear eyes and said, "Can we go see their room?"

"What do you want to do?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her warily.

"What are you doing? Check if their rooms are clean and tidy, and don't bring any more lice or fleas here." Shen Hui'e looked at him very seriously and rubbed her arms exaggeratedly, "Those things don't like to be clean, and they will come back soon."

"To be honest, even if you are clean now, you will be covered in dirt when the war starts. You will probably get infected again. Why bother?" Huang Zhongchang pondered for a moment and said to her.

"You eat today, so you don't have to eat tomorrow." Shen Hui'e rolled her eyes and said, "What are you talking about!" She snorted and said, "Isn't there no war? If there is a war, we will wade through the mud and water, or even crawl through it. Even if I want to be particular, I can't be particular." She pursed her lips and said, "It's possible to be clean, but you have to be sloppy!"

As the two of them were talking, they walked into a barracks. Seeing the mess in the room, Shen Hui'e stroked her forehead and asked, "Aren't you going to make your beds?"

"What's so great about this? Just lie down and go to sleep!" Huang Zhongchang said carelessly, "Don't sweat this little thing. Just be able to fight!"

"If you can't even do small things well, how can you expect to accomplish big things?" Shen Hui'e stepped forward to spread the hay on the big bunk bed, turned around and looked at him and said, "Why are you standing there! Come over and give me a hand."

"You let me?" Huang Zhongchang looked at him in disbelief and pointed at himself.

"Is there anyone else here?" Shen Hui'e sat up and looked at him.

"No, you asked me to spread hay." Huang Zhongchang looked at her in disbelief.

"It's ready. Use this as the standard and make sure the bed is ready when they wake up every day." Shen Hui'e looked at him seriously and said.

Huang Zhongchang's eyes flashed with anger, and he closed his eyes and asked, "Give me a reason."

Shen Hui'e clearly saw the anger on his face, but she managed to hold back. "We'll make you do things that you don't understand, that are annoying, and that you resist for years, so that you can develop a sense of unconditional obedience to orders." She said forcefully, "We'll train the soldiers to obey orders, observe discipline, and march in unison. Soldiers take obeying orders as their first duty."

"Just starting from such a boring thing." Huang Zhongchang thought for a moment and said, "Is it possible?"

"If you can't clean up your own house, how can you clean up the world?" Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and penetrating eyes and said word by word, "When arrows rain down, the soldiers hide behind their shields. After the rain of arrows passes, the general gives an order: Kill! If you think normally, what if the arrows haven't been shot out? You might hesitate, or even not execute the order. But you can't hesitate when executing any order on the battlefield. In other words, a qualified soldier must have some subconscious and unconditional obedience to orders."

"What is the subconscious mind?" Huang Zhongchang asked humbly.

Shen Hui'e blinked and thought for a moment, "It can be said to be subconscious." Then she continued, "This subconsciousness is not cultivated overnight. Through long-term doing things that are incomprehensible, annoying and resistant, a subconscious unconditional obedience to orders is formed. The soldiers cleaned the house and took care of themselves, which reflects the style, spirit and quality of soldiers. These are all things that are within their ability. Don't look down on them, but these things reflect that spirit is a necessary component of the army's combat effectiveness, which is no less than training in daily life."

"Do you understand now?" Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at him and said, "Let's do it or not!"

"Can't I do it?" Huang Zhongchang bent down and began to flatten the hay on the big bunk bed.

"Do you believe what I said?" Shen Hui'e looked at him in surprise.

"I have nothing else to believe in!" Huang Zhongchang said without raising his head.

"There is no other choice." Shen Hui'e looked at him with clear eyes.

"You can say that, but compared to what you say, I'm like a headless fly, with no idea at all." Huang Zhongchang stood up and looked at her with dark and bottomless eyes.

"Aren't you afraid that I will lead you into a ditch?" Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement and said.

"We are husband and wife, tied together. If I am not good, you can't escape. You were even in jail for a few days because of me!" Huang Zhongchang said, his deep eyes reflecting her beautiful figure, "And they are very happy. No one has ever treated them so well. If it were me, I would be touched too." He said honestly, "They will fight for us on the battlefield."

"What you said is not very pleasant to the ear." Shen Hui'e looked at him with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "I mean it sincerely."

"Tsk..." Huang Zhongchang sneered, "Maybe!"

"If you don't believe it, forget it." Shen Hui'e said disapprovingly.

Huang Zhongchang changed the subject immediately and said, "Hurry up! How long will it take? There are so many rooms."

"Let's just do this one, and let them do the rest based on this standard!" Shen Hui'e smiled and raised the corners of her lips when she heard this.

"That's right!" Huang Zhongchang smiled when he heard it.

The two men spread the hay and laid out the shoes.

Huang Zhongchang clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Do you have any other opinions?"

"This blanket is really too thin." Shen Hui'e touched the two layers of tattered linen stuffed with hay, "It can keep you warm like this."

Even if she wanted them to fold the quilt, it was no use! She was afraid that if she used too much force, the quilt would be torn.

There are so many people, but there is not enough sackcloth!

"It's much warmer now with this fire bed." Huang Zhongchang looked at her with his dark eyes and said, "It wasn't so good when we were building the imperial mausoleum. We all huddled together to keep warm."

"Isn't that cold? People can get sick and die." Shen Hui'e said to him with a frown.

"Those who couldn't survive the winter were taken out and buried." Huang Zhongchang closed his eyes and clenched his fists. He opened his eyes and said with undisguised anger, "We ran away because of such inhumane treatment."

"Winter is much better now." Huang Zhongchang looked at her and told her the truth.

He is not a fool and knows what is good and what is bad.

"Our county is still small, and the food and grass can't support so many people." Shen Hui'e frowned and looked at him and said, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Let's see what the situation is like outside after this winter." Huang Zhongchang said with his fists clasped together.

"What if the rebellious forces outside are suppressed by the imperial court?" Shen Hui'e said, looking at him with her deep and bottomless eyes.

"Let's do it ourselves!" Huang Zhongchang looked at her firmly and said, "We're going to die anyway, so why not give it a try? After all, we escaped death."

"Then let's train our troops well." Shen Hui'e looked at him with resolute eyes and said, "One word: do it!"

"Isn't there a wooden basin here?" Shen Hui'e said as she looked around the barracks.

"What do you need the wooden basin for?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her in confusion and asked.

"Wash your face and feet!" Shen Hui'e said to him with pure eyes.

"Oh my God, you think you're at home! Do you want to take a bath?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her with a smile and said, "We can just squat by the stream and wash ourselves. We need wooden basins. How many wooden basins are needed for so many people?"

Shen Hui'e was embarrassed by his scolding and rubbed her nose with her index finger, "In the future, there will be no war, and personal toiletries must be provided in the barracks."

"Women just like to be clean." Huang Zhongchang curled his lips in disdain, "They don't even consider the situation."

"You..." Shen Hui'e took a deep breath and said, "You like to get dirty! Then go roll in the mud."

"Isn't this because the situation doesn't allow it?" Huang Zhongchang said unhappily, "Who likes dirt when it can be clean?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't face the reality." Shen Hui'e said embarrassedly.

Huang Zhongchang looked at her in surprise. This woman also apologized. I thought she would continue!

"I see a name engraved on the headboard of the bed." Shen Hui'e pointed to the clearly engraved words on the headboard.

"This way you won't forget your name even if you want to." Huang Zhongchang smiled and said, "My son taught me this way. There are words engraved on the items inside and outside the barracks. I use them often and see them often, so I can remember them quickly." He looked directly at her and said, "I think you taught me this!"

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e nodded with a smile.

"Why are you so nice to Da Chong and the others?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her in confusion and asked.

"I like them!" Shen Hui'e said with a look of tenderness that could drip tears from her eyes, "They are my children."

"You have taught them very well." Huang Zhongchang had to admit after spending these days with his children.

"It is my duty to teach them." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and clear eyes and said, "Parents who love their children should plan for them in the long run. Parents who love their children should plan for them in the long run and not just focus on the gains and losses in the present." She said with a serious face, "I don't want to teach an uneducated and unscrupulous guy. I will never be able to rest in peace in the grave." She said seriously, "No matter how high or far the parents fly, no matter how big the family business is, it will eventually fall on the children. A qualified heir can die with peace of mind."
