Three Kingdoms: I rely on system loopholes to survive

Chapter 40

The soldiers carried heavy baskets full of sand on their backs, and walked stiffly towards the city gate.

They walked slowly, sweat pooled on the junction of the knotted blue veins on their foreheads and the tightly furrowed brows,

The purple and swollen faces were molded into numb clay puppets, and the wrinkled facial features were just like the word "bitterness" engraved in an inscription.

Li Meng dragged his steps, walked into the city with force, supported the wall to stop, and took a few deep breaths, only to feel a burning pain in his lungs, and an earthy smell in his throat.

Every time I swallowed saliva, it was like swallowing raw sand, which was very painful.

"That one over there, why are you standing there stupidly, what are you doing? Not yet, not coming here!" Shi Chang stood up, moved his hands around his belt, and ordered him arrogantly.

Listening to his tone, Li Meng knew that his "sir" probably drank a lot of wine.

He bent down, shifting the weight of the basket over his entire back.His shoulders were bloody and bloody from the grass rope covered with thorns, and he really couldn't continue to bear such a heavy load.

Shi Chang waited for him to approach, and put out his hand under the basket pretendingly: "Well, the weight, the weight is enough, don't think about it, just want to play tricks!"

"No, no."

Li Meng endured the smell of alcohol on his face, and lowered his head to answer, as expected, he caught a glimpse of a half-deflated wine bag pinned to Shi Chang's waist.

"En." Shi Chang made a voice in his nasal cavity, and pointed to the right: "Go, go over there to get the meal."

Li Meng bowed and unloaded the basket behind his back.Looking along the place of his finger, there are already many people queuing up.

The little soup that he ate in the morning has long since turned into sweat and drained out. Li Meng's stomach was empty, and he was a little numb from hunger. At this moment, he smelled some rice, and realized that his chest was pressed against his back. The sound was like thunder.

He didn't care about the soreness in his body, he opened his legs, took two steps at a time, and squeezed into the crowd.

The grain officer stood behind the gang leader, watching him stir the pot with a long-handled ladle, scoop out the rice paste mixed with wild vegetables, and then tapped the pot wall lightly to force out the soup in the ladle, which was full of delicious food. A bowl, pressed tightly.

The soldier at the front of the line was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly reached out to take it, but saw that the leader turned around and gave the bowl of food to the grain officer behind him. The spoon flicked casually in the pot.

"No, go on!"

The soldier waited in line for a long time before it was his turn, but the food officer was ahead of him, and he felt a little resentful in his heart.

At this time, he took the bowl and saw that there were only a few broken vegetable leaves floating in the turbid rice soup. Suddenly, his anger surged, and he couldn't bear it anymore, and threw the bowl to the ground forcefully.

"You black-hearted bastard! Come and see, these 'shangguans' have even withheld their meals! If we knew this, why should we come to vote?! It's better to go back to Luoyang and fall here Angry at this son of a bitch?!"

After hearing this, the team behind was in a commotion, pushing forward one by one with all their strength.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the food officer hurriedly put the food in his hands behind his back, trying to cover it up.

Where can the soldiers rely?
Several people hurriedly snatched the job bowl from him, and compared it to the puddle of rice soup on the ground.

"It's so dark! If this soldier continues to be a soldier, don't we starve to death?!"

"My mother! I will wait for my ancestors!"

"It sounds good at the beginning! What 'soldiers and generals are one', 'share weal and woe', I am! It is just empty talk to lie to me!"

The more the soldiers scolded, the more excited they became. They picked up the empty bowls and smashed them on the heads of the gang leader and the food officer.

Li Meng was also filled with resentment, but when he thought of what he had discussed with Wang Fang, he became a little excited.

If the imperial court is still like this, won't I respond to everyone's call when it comes to riots?
As he thought about it, he tried to raise his head, secretly remembering the man from Xiliang who shouted "one soldier and one general is empty talk".

At this time, you still want to discredit my Shaofu?

When was the Shaofu leading the army not rushing to the front of the most dangerous?As a commander in chief, he goes to the battlefield with us every day to fight bloody battles, and eats and eats with us every day. Where can we find such a conscientious general? !
I remember you, the son of a bitch!

"What's all the fuss about?!"

The captain of the city gate saw the chaos on the city wall, put down the half-bitten chicken leg in his hand, leaned out halfway, and questioned angrily, his tone full of impatience.

Shi Chang was so frightened by the soldiers' sudden attack on Shangguan below that he was sober.

It just so happened that the captain of the city gate asked the question, so he didn't dare to stay below, for fear that he would also be beaten for no reason, so he ran up the city wall in a hurry.

"Yes, it's the soldiers who are making trouble... Say yes, say yes..." Shi Chang hesitated, while speaking, he secretly glanced at the face of the captain of the city gate.

"Huh?" The captain of Chengmen was even more impatient, his brows were erected, and he ordered harshly: "Say it directly!"

"...It is said that the Shangguan skipped meals."

Shi Chang was so frightened that his whole body trembled and his legs went limp.

"Deductions?" The Chengmen captain sneered and said, "These meals don't cost a penny, and they still think they can eat enough?"

Wiping off his cold sweat, Shi Chang stammered and replied: "I heard they said that the number of species is small, oh, when Tai Shiling led the army, it wasn't this amount..."

"Tai Shiling." The captain of the city gate seemed to have heard something funny, and taunted: "What do you know about leading soldiers?! Such wanton nonsense has cost the imperial court a lot of money for no reason! I think he is just relying on it." It’s all about having a good father in court!”

"When Situ recommended Taishi Ling to defend the city, Uncle Guo didn't think much about it. It was because Uncle Guo had the foresight! If Taishi Ling is really allowed to keep guarding the city, I don't know what kind of chaos will happen in the city!"

"Look, this soldier dared to defy and attack the Shangguan! He really has no dignity! I don't know how Tai Shiling led the soldiers!"

Everyone was almost scared to death.

He felt that he was so stupid, how good it was to be down there, at worst, he would be beaten up?
Why do you have to come up? !
He can't wait to give himself a big mouth.

Telling you to owe, calling you to owe, what kind of nonsense to answer if you have nothing to do, pretending to be deaf and dumb to fool the past soon?What do you have to ask and answer?
"Why, you don't agree?"

The captain of Chengmen looked gloomy and stared at him coldly.

"I, I, the villain is stupid, I really don't know..."

Tears were about to come out. Although I have such a relationship with the uncle of the [-]th generation of ancestors, and I can be counted as an uncle of the country, but I joined the army just to take advantage of it and earn some food. Isn't it clear that standing in line will kill me?
If I had known those big officials and gentlemen were fighting so fiercely now, wouldn't it be good for me to just farm in the ravine with peace of mind?What are you doing in this muddy water if you are only coveting the wealth and honor of this moment!
The head of the party said: Now I regret it, very regretful.
