Liu Ziqiu was very calm. He waited until Erzhuang and the others came closer, and then said in a deep voice: "What big thing happened? Don't be anxious, speak slowly!"
Erzhuang jumped off his horse, and before he could stand still, he gasped and said, "Da Niu, Da Niu, the county has just received the document and wants to recruit you."
Liu Ziqiu frowned and said, "What the hell is Ouyang Yu doing? Didn't you pay for it?"
To dig the Jiangnan Canal, villagers must be recruited from all villages and towns, and Changshan Village is no exception. Liu Ziqiu knows that once a canal is built, he doesn't know how many people will die, so he will naturally not let the villagers take risks. Fortunately, he now has a close relationship with Ouyang Yu
, spent some money to dig up and down the canal, and prevaricated the task of digging the canal.
Erzhuang shook his head repeatedly and said: "It's not digging the river, it's a document from Yingyang Mansion."
"Yingyang Mansion is in charge of the soldiers, and I'm not a soldier. What does it have to do with him?"
"The document clearly states that you are now a soldier of the government." Erzhuang took out a crumpled piece of paper from his arms and said, "No, the county will allocate fifteen acres of land for you."
The Fubing system originated from the Northern Wei Dynasty. At the beginning, the Northern Wei court stipulated that Xianbei people should serve as soldiers and Han people should work as farmers. Later, due to frequent wars and the rapid depletion of soldiers, Han people were allowed to serve as soldiers, and the court would allocate fields and exempt them from taxes. Therefore,
, when there is no war, the government soldiers actually enjoy certain privileges. However, Liu Ziqiu did not enjoy the privileges for one day, so he received the call-up order, and he will gather in Yanguan County tomorrow.
Liu Ziqiu took the piece of paper and looked at it. The few lines on it were crooked, and it was obvious that Er Zhuang had copied them from the document. He couldn't help but muttered: "There is something fishy about this."
How could he be allowed to become a soldier for no reason? In fact, this was all done by Yang Wanxiang. The seven Yang brothers have a deep relationship, and Yang Wanxiang is the closest to his seventh brother Yang Jishan. Since he has Yu Hangying and Yang Fulang
Given the opportunity, of course he wanted to take a breath for his younger brother.
After arriving in Yuhang, Yang Wanxiang sent people to quietly investigate the details of Changshan Village. Naturally, he found out that the villagers were following Liu Ziqiu. Originally, he wanted to wait for a firm foothold before fighting with Liu Ziqiu, but the result was unexpected.
The matter of the Wang family.
Searching the Wang family is also a good opportunity to deal with Liu Ziqiu, and he can be trapped in it. But Zhang Xutuo came too quickly, and before he could arrange the arrangements, he took away all the prisoners. But because of his meritorious service, he spent the New Year
He will be transferred to Luoyang.
Yang Wanxiang originally thought that he would have no chance to retaliate against Liu Ziqiu this time. Unexpectedly, another order came from the imperial court, requiring Yuhang Yingyang's Mansion to mobilize five hundred soldiers to Henan to obey the order. With the information revealed by Yang Xuangan in advance, Yang Wanxiang
Naturally, we knew that this troop deployment was for the western expedition to Tuyuhun.
War is an extremely dangerous thing, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as a near-death experience. Yang Wanxiang immediately thought of a way to get Liu Ziqiu into the army. Even if Liu Ziqiu could survive the battlefield, the Yang family would still be in the court.
The forces in the army and the army could also find an excuse to take his life. As long as Liu Ziqiu dies, Changshan Village will be leaderless and will naturally be at the mercy of the Yang family.
When the villagers heard the news, they all gathered around. Although they didn't know about Yang Wanxiang's conspiracy or even the existence of Yang Wanxiang, they all knew the dangers of this trip and tried to persuade Liu Ziqiu not to go. Some even took the initiative.
Gao Xiuer proposed to apply in place of Liu Ziqiu. Gao Xiuer also looked nervous, with a few sparkles in her eyes.
Wei Zheng thought for a while and said: "Except for joining the army for my father, anyone else who impersonates his name will be treated as a deserter. That is a capital crime and will not work. There is only one way."
"any solution?"
"Go to Ouyang County Magistrate and ask him to cancel the list. He only said that the master cannot be found, so there is nothing the Yingyang Mansion can do."
"That's inappropriate!" Liu Ziqiu immediately rejected Wei Zheng's suggestion, "The Yingyang Mansion must have conducted an investigation beforehand and it cannot be concealed."
Except for those closest to him, Liu Ziqiu's name was only on the official roster. In the village, everyone still used to call him Daniu. And on the small piece of paper Er Zhuang copied, the three characters Liu Ziqiu were clearly written,
This absolutely cannot be Yingyang Mansion's mistake or coincidence.
Gao Xiuer's voice was choked with sobs: "Langjun, I don't want you to go!"
"No, I have to go!" Liu Ziqiu suddenly made a decision.
Although he was born in the military, he was in the cold weapon era. When he fought with four of Wang Zimao's slaves at the Xie family that day, he felt that many of the things he had learned in the past were of no use now, and he urgently needed to
Re-learning and training in the army. This time the recruitment order suddenly listed him as a soldier. Isn't it a God-given opportunity? Although the future is full of dangers, how can Liu Ziqiu, who is naturally adventurous, shrink back?
…
In the thatched house, Liu Ziqiu said in a deep voice: "You all kneel down!"
Four Kunlun slaves, two Korean maidservants, Ninglu Ningshuang sisters, and Vanilla all knelt in a row. Although they were just slaves, Liu Ziqiu had never taken the initiative to ask them to kneel. This was the first time today.
.
Liu Ziqiu took a hardwood stick as thick as a bowl and said sternly: "When I am away, you must absolutely obey the orders of the mistress and protect the safety of the mistress. If there is any delay, this stick will be an example!"
After saying that, there was a "click" and the hardwood stick was broken into two pieces by him.
"Mr. Lang..." Gao Xiuer was already crying.
Liu Ziqiu took her hand, patted it gently, and said, "Don't worry, I have overcome so many difficulties. I will be fine."
Pushing open the courtyard door, twelve energetic teenagers were standing upright outside. A total of forty-eight teenagers participated in the training organized by Liu Ziqiu himself, but their qualifications varied, and these twelve teenagers were the best among them.
Liu Ziqiu nodded with satisfaction: "Dapeng, Shuanzi!"
Xiao Dapeng and Shuanzi straightened their chests and shouted together: "We're here!"
Liu Ziqiu raised his hand and said: "The forty-eight of you are all soldiers from Changshan Village, and you are all heroes in the future. You twelve are the sharpest swords among them. I will give you a code name, Langya! Dapeng,
Shuanzi, after I leave, you must lead everyone to continue training hard without any slack!"
The twelve teenagers responded in unison: "No!"
Forty-eight people, no matter how strong their individual combat capabilities are, cannot defeat an entire army. Therefore, Liu Ziqiu trained them according to the regulations of the special forces from the beginning. Regardless of their small number, as long as they are used properly, they will be able to fight in the future.
Maybe he can become a surprise soldier.
All the villagers came to see Liu Ziqiu off at the entrance of the village. Although it had only been half a year, they had already regarded Liu Ziqiu as a relative. At this time, the people from Fanjiashe also came from the south. They had only heard the news yesterday.
Wei Zheng helped Liu Ziqiu lead the horse, and he felt a little complicated. After a while, he raised his hand and said, "My lord, take care of yourself all the way here!"
The major matters he and Liu Ziqiu were discussing were on the right track step by step, but were completely disrupted by this recruitment order. If Liu Ziqiu made a mistake, he would have to find another way out.
Liu Ziqiu seemed to have seen through Wei Zheng's thoughts. He laughed loudly, pointed at a big stone at the entrance of the village, and said loudly: "Old and young people of Changshan Village, after I leave, all matters in the village, big and small, must obey Mr. Wei's control. If anyone violates the rules,
, there is such a stone!”
After saying that, Liu Ziqiu suddenly jumped up, raised his palm, and slapped the big rock hard. With the force of this slap, his body turned around in the air and landed firmly on the horse. Everyone again
Everyone was stunned to see that big stone had a large handprint three inches deep.
Liu Ziqiu tightened the reins, and the horse gave a long "chirp" and galloped towards Yanguancheng with its hooves flying.
In the village, Gao Xiuer had climbed up to the turret at some point. Two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks and wet her clothes. Until Liu Ziqiu's figure had turned into a small black dot, she still stayed upstairs.
I refused to come down for a long time...
Yanguan County mainly produces salt. There is not much land, and there are also few government soldiers. There are only five people who applied this time, including Liu Ziqiu, and only Liu Ziqiu has his own horses. However, the others have complete armor and weapons.
Liu Ziqiu, on the other hand, only wore cloth clothes and carried a waist knife.
This is a flaw of the Fu army system, because the Fu soldiers have to prepare their own horses, armor and weapons, and there are many kinds of weapons, and some poor soldiers are not equipped at all.
Five people happened to form a team. Ouyang Yu temporarily designated Liu Ziqiu as the leader of the team, and they knew each other by name. The other four people were Wang San'er, Li Wei, Han Wenle, and Zhu Ada. They were all hereditary military households, unlike Liu Ziqiu who became a monk halfway.
Yanguan was not far from Yuhang County and arrived in one day. At this time, it was under the jurisdiction of Yingyang Mansion. During the roll call, Yang Wanxiang stared at Liu Ziqiu for a long time with a pair of vicious eyes.
When he heard that General Ying Yang's surname was Yang, Liu Ziqiu understood everything. However, he was not afraid. The team would set off tomorrow. As long as it did not violate military discipline, he was not afraid of Yang's mischief. He was just Liu Ziqiu's temporary team leader.
That was the end of it, and they were immediately reduced to ordinary soldiers and separated from Wang Saner and the others. Of course, no matter how they are combined now, they are all temporary, and they will have to be reorganized when they arrive in Henan.
Yang Wanxiang really wanted to take advantage of Liu Ziqiu, but it was getting late, the government troops had no combat missions, and Liu Ziqiu just stayed in the tent and slept, so he had no way of doing anything.
Early the next morning, two brigade commanders Liu Yu and An Ziye who came from Luoyang came to seal the seal and led the five hundred soldiers across the Qiantang River to Henan.
Four days later, the team arrived in Jiangdu. A group of troops had already been assembled here, and the imperial navy transferred warships. Everyone turned to the waterway and arrived at Bishui Pass in a few days. Liu Yu and An Ziye led everyone to abandon the boat.
After landing, we turned south, passing through Baihua Valley and Songgao Mountain, and arrived at the outskirts of Yangcheng.
This place has turned into a large military camp, with rolling tents within a hundred miles. The newly arrived soldiers were immediately broken up and reorganized, and they were grouped together regardless of region. However, the brigade commander of Liu Ziqiu's regiment was still Liu Yu
, the four captains and the four vice-captains are all veterans of the Luoyang Guards. In addition, there is an acquaintance Wang Saner in the regiment, but he is not in the same team as Liu Ziqiu.
The basic establishment of the army is a group of two groups, which means that these ten people have to sleep in a tent and eat in a pot. Liu Ziqiu was arranged in the westernmost tent. Before he could get closer,
I heard someone shouting: "Hey, big man, go chop some firewood!"
