Coincidentally, Wei Lin and his party just happened to catch up with the last day of the conscription, and the four found the most dilapidated inn to deal with for the night. Recruits collection.
A tent was temporarily erected outside the city gate, with a wooden board standing beside it, which read: The gathering place for the recruits of the Southern Army.
"This is it." Jia Da said first, Wei Lin glanced at him: "You only have eyes? Why do you like to steal the spotlight so much?"
"I was wrong I was wrong..."
There were a lot of people standing sparsely near the greenhouse. Everyone gathered in three or five groups. There were two people in armor sitting in the middle of the greenhouse. It was obvious that they were in charge of recruiting soldiers. Jiang ignored the three people next to them. After joining, he felt like a middle-aged man of thirty-five years old, widowed, and left three mentally deficient children for him to take care of. He walked straight towards the man in the armor: "We're here to apply..." "Wait over there." The man in armor waved his hand impatiently and interrupted him directly. Jiang Ye's violent temper was a bit unbearable, Wei Lin grabbed Jiang Ye's hand from behind and pulled it back. Jiang also didn't pay attention, and was dragged out by Wei Lin. Wei Lin whispered in his ear: "Don't make trouble, maybe it will be our boss in the future."
"Humph." Jiang also vented his dissatisfaction with his nasal voice.
Jia Da and Jia Er followed closely and the two of them didn't know what to talk about, and Jiang was not interested in listening, because at this time Wei Lin was talking in his ear all the time.
"How many people do you think there are here?"
"Hey, when do you think we can get the military uniforms? It's not rude, but our military uniforms look good."
"What do you think? Look at those two men in military uniforms, don't they look good?"
"Why don't you talk, my son~"
Jiang also only felt that one head and two were big, and his head was buzzing with pain from Wei Lin's noise, and then he couldn't help shouting at Wei Lin: "You are so annoying here, can you be quiet for a while? ?"
This roar was incomparably loud, and the people standing around, possibly future comrades in arms, all suddenly closed their mouths and looked at where Jiang Ye and Wei Lin were standing.
The atmosphere suddenly became very strange.
About a hundred people stood on the edge of the shed, and they were extremely quiet for a moment, looking at Jiang Ye and Wei Lin at the same time. Even someone like Wei Lin who was invulnerable to a knife was embarrassed to the point of suffocation.
It was Jia Er who suddenly spoke, breaking the strange atmosphere: "I'm most afraid that the air will suddenly be quiet..."
Jia Er's words did not cause much repercussions, but Jia Da, who was standing beside him, suddenly laughed: "Hahahaha."
The atmosphere returned to normal, and the people around started chatting again. Jiang also glared at Jia Da and asked, "Is it funny?"
"It's funny, hahaha." Jia Da obviously hasn't turned his head around yet.
"I find it hard to laugh." Jiang also said.
"Uh..." Jia Da looked at Jiang Ye's face, it was clearly covered with dark clouds, even people who don't know how to watch words should understand that Jiang Ye's mood was made worse by the episode just now, "It's not funny, Brother Jiang, no funny."
Jiang also wanted to scold him for a few words. Who knew that there was a man in armor who came out of the city gate. It seemed that his temperament was different from those of the previous two. Even the style of the armor was different, but it was a little far away. Everyone can't see clearly. But the two soldiers in the shed who were squatting like 25,800,000, hurriedly got up and walked towards the man.
Wei Lin whispered to Jiang Ye, "Do you feel like two monkeys?"
Jiang also heard the words and burst out laughing. Wei Lin didn't think about it, but when he said it, Jiang also looked at it again, and it really looked like two monkeys.
The two of them walked behind the newcomer, and followed him into the crowd, reporting the situation as they walked: "Lieutenant General Min, one hundred and forty-one people from Yanzhou have arrived."
"Are you clear?"
"Counted clearly, counted several times."
"What did the government office say?"
"According to the rules of the court, there were 121 recruits, and 79 volunteers joined the army, making a total of 200, but now only 141 have arrived."
"It's time to leave soon, no wait, count the personnel, register them, and let the government handle them according to the rules."
"Yes!"
The deputy general Min walked into the shed and sat down at the resting place of the two soldiers. One immediately brought tea and served it, while the other stood in front of the shed and shouted loudly: "The one whose name has been called out, line up in four rows. , did you hear it clearly?"
The crowd responded sparsely: "I heard..."
Some of them answered passionately: "I heard!" Wei Lin's ears were going deaf. This passionate answer came from Jia Da's mouth, and Jia Da stood beside Wei Lin again. "Be quiet!" Wei Lin slapped Jia Da's head.
"Yes Yes Yes… "
"Zhang Si! Liu Qi! Wang Wu!"
Although everyone seemed to be lazy and not enthusiastic, the four lines were lined up in a hurry. Jiang Ye and the four went to the government office together to apply for the recruitment, and the four of them lined up together.
"Set off!"
"There are still some people, can't wait?" The little soldier confirmed again.
"No wait, let's go!" Deputy General Min gave an order, and the 100-man brigade set off for Hanzhou.
Jiang Ye didn't say a word. More than a hundred people walked together, but it didn't feel too cold. In addition, Jiang Ye was sweating all the time.
Wei Lin and Jia Da Jia Er are very suitable for this kind of environment full of strangers, and they chatted with the people next to them without a word. Although everyone was lining up, just like when they gathered in the greenhouse before, they dispersed as they walked, covering the road, chatting with friends or strangers as they walked. It's like going to the army, but it's like going on a picnic.
Here Jia Da Jia Er chats with the people next to him.
"What do you do at home?"
"My family farmer, sigh, I didn't want to farm, but forced conscription instead of farming."
"How can it be? What if you become a soldier if you become prosperous?"
"Hey, do you still want to develop? I think I can save my life."
"Are you married yet?"
"Married, before leaving, my daughter-in-law cried to death or to live."
"I'm envious. There is a daughter-in-law. The single dog is crying."
Over there, Wei Lin was joking with someone he just met.
"Where are you from?"
"I'm from Shangzhou, does Shangzhou know?"
"Where is Shangzhou?"
"People from Jiangling, Shangzhou, does Jiangling know?"
"do not know."
"Just to the west, above Shangzhou."
"Still don't know."
"Well, where are you from?"
"I'm Yanzhou."
"Oh, too."
"Your friend is so indifferent..."
"You said him." Wei Lin gestured with his chin to Jiang Ye, who was walking in front.
"Yeah." The person who had been chatting with him nodded.
This person's name is Lin Zuo. He came alone and has no friends. He chatted with Wei Lin without a word along the way.
"Oh, he's a mute." Wei Lin whispered to Lin Zuo.
How can I know that Jiang also listened to all of his ears, and turned around and scolded Wei Lin: "Fuck you, you are the dumb one."
"Hee hee, just kidding, you have no sense of humor."
"I'll say it again, it's really hard to laugh." After Jiang Ye finished speaking, he continued to walk forward, ignoring Wei Lin.
Lin Zu added: "It's still fierce."
Wei Lin frowned and nodded solemnly to Lin Zuo: "Super fierce."
Jiang also pretended not to hear. However, he kept walking alone, which was really boring. He was thinking about his own business, but gradually, his ears kept listening to Wei Lin's nonsense with others.
"Hanzhou was originally a border city belonging to the Sui country. Because of its large border with my country, it has been a neutral trading city a hundred years ago. The border between my country and Hanzhou is two towering peaks named Buxiaoshan. Buxiaoshan has always been As a natural barrier, at the junction of Hanzhou and Yanzhou, there is a natural canyon between the two peaks, called Yanhangu. As early as hundreds of years ago, our country built a defensive military in Yanhangu, and this time we attacked Hanzhou. , it can be said to be a foolproof business, if you win, you can go deep into the hinterland of Sui Kingdom; if you lose, return to Yanhangu, and Sui Kingdom can’t invade.
"Isn't that there is no danger at all?" Lin Zu listened to Wei Lin's rhetoric, his eyes full of admiration. Lin Zuo is the son of a poor noble family. He doesn't like reading or the art of war on weekdays. His only hobbies are tinkering with woodworking and making gadgets. Listening to Wei Lin's explanation at this time, I secretly sighed that Wei Lin was knowledgeable.
Also lamented that Wei Lin is well-informed, as well as Jiang Ye. But he still didn't speak and listened quietly. He didn't want to give Wei Lin a chance to be proud. Wei Lin was already very annoying at ordinary times, but when he became complacent, Jiang wanted to strangle him.
"Hey, it's not dangerous to fight. No matter whether he is a guaranteed business or not, he will always die." Jia Da said suddenly.
"Yes." Wei Lin nodded, "But the general who presided over the battle in Hanzhou is very powerful. Maybe he won't cost one soldier and one soldier to win?"
Jiang was also a little curious about this, and suddenly said, "Who is it?"
"Deep lady, you have little knowledge." Wei Lin said triumphantly.
Jiang also didn't want to endure it at all. He turned around and took advantage of Wei Lin's defense, and suddenly stopped, Wei Lin bumped into him: "What are you doing..."
Before the words could be said, Jiang Ye grabbed his arm and threw Wei Lin to the ground.
"Ouch!" Wei Lin cried out in pain, and got up from the ground, very embarrassed. Jiang also looked at Wei Lin with satisfaction and asked again, "Who is that general?"
"It's General Xue, Xue Ziqin, son of Dingbei General Xue Changfeng..."
"You know a lot." Jiang also praised Wei Lin indifferently. He had heard of Xue Changfeng's name. As early as when he was still young, Xue Changfeng had already made a name for himself by relying on a thousand guards to block the siege of 10,000 horses by the barbarians from the north.
"I didn't expect Big Brother Jiang to use his hands so strongly. I only knew that Big Brother Wei could fight..." Jia Da, who witnessed the whole process, expressed his surprise, and Jia Er also nodded hastily, feeling that he could not offend Big Brother Jiang.
Lin Yu was considered to be incapable of tying a chicken with his hands. He was dressed in gentle clothes, and when he saw Jiang also throwing Wei Lin, he was a little scared.
This man is so fierce, he can't be offended, he can't be offended.
In contrast, Wei Lin appears to be amiable and knowledgeable.
With so many people marching together, it takes about ten days to travel from Yanzhou to Buxiaoshan.
Hanzhou is in the south of Yanzhou. After walking for a few days, you can clearly feel the temperature rise, not as cold as in Yanzhou.
This time, Jiang also learned to behave. Before leaving, I bought a lot of dry food for Jia Da and Jia Er to carry on their backs. Although it was not very delicious, it was fortunate that they would not be hungry.
At night, under the arrangement of Lieutenant General Min, everyone started a fire, rested, and then arranged for good people to take turns to watch the night.
Ten days later, the people from Shangzhou joined them. There were many adults in Shangzhou, and the team immediately changed from more than 100 people to more than 400 people.
