Hua Yun is not old, but has a good temper. He will fall out whenever he wants, and he is like a new "camp tyrant".
Liu Ziqiu just regarded him as a child and didn't care about him. He packed up his bed and left, lay down next to the short fat man, and fell asleep.
The short fat man was a little gloating about his misfortune. He turned his head and whispered, "What? Are you here too?"
Liu Ziqiu did not accept his instigation. He smiled faintly and said, "Brother, you haven't figured out the situation yet. He is the boss in this tent. Can he still have some privileges?"
Ten people were crowded into a tent, and the smell was unmistakable. The short fat man was the leader of the group. In the past, he would drive others away and enjoy as much space as possible by himself. But he was not reconciled and said: "
Big man, I think you're pretty good at it. How about you? Give him a fight, and we'll all support you."
Several other people also suffered from Hua Yun today and nodded.
"Have you not suffered enough today?" Liu Ziqiu glanced at Hua Yun and said, "I have to go to you, I'm going to bed."
The short fat man is not only a veteran, but he is also very strong, otherwise he would not be the gang leader. But this afternoon, Liu Ziqiu easily took the spear from his hand, and he knew that he was no match for Liu Ziqiu. Now
, Liu Ziqiu did not dare to challenge Hua Yun, and he was immediately discouraged.
On the opposite side, although Hua Yun had been lying still, his ears were always listening to the movements here. Knowing that Liu Ziqiu had no intention of competing with him, a faint smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth, and then he turned over and gradually fell asleep.
It’s on.
Although Hua Yun had a thin figure, her buttocks were round and perky. The short fat man stared at it twice and couldn't help but swallowed with a "Gulu" sound.
Liu Ziqiu shook his head, lowered his voice, and said with a hint of disgust: "Brother, don't make a mistake, we may not know who will do it then."
Everyone snickered. The short fat man felt his buttocks tighten and subconsciously covered his buttocks, completely giving up on this idea.
Before dawn, the rallying horn sounded in the military camp, and Liu Ziqiu officially began his military life in the Sui Dynasty. Three hundred thousand people lined up in the open space outside the camp, covering a large area in darkness, and the scene was very spectacular.
Liu Ziqiu is considered a soldier and has participated in some large-scale exercises, but this is the first time he has seen hundreds of thousands of people gathered together like this. Because they brought their own armor and weapons, the whole team looked a bit messy.
Some were wearing leather armor, some were wearing iron armor, some were new and some were old, and there were all kinds of weapons, but swords and guns were the main ones.
Hua Yun is the most well-equipped, with cowhide armor on his body, an iron helmet on his head, bright red tassels fluttering in the wind, a bow and arrow on his left hand, a sword on his right hand, and a spear eight feet long, majestic and majestic. He does not look like a soldier, but he is clearly handsome.
The young general.
In comparison, Liu Ziqiu seemed much shabby. Among the 300,000 people, he was probably the only one who only wore commoners. His weapons were even simpler, just a waist knife, which he got when he killed Yang Heihu.
The team had just assembled, and many people were whispering there. Hua Yun also asked in a low voice: "Brother Liu, why are you still wearing this outfit? I remember that when you came yesterday, you seemed to be carrying a big baggage. Isn't there armor inside?
?”
Liu Ziqiu shook his head helplessly: "I don't have armor."
"Are you short of money?" After a good sleep, Hua Yun's mood improved again and he said, "I still have some, why don't I take a leave tomorrow and go to the city to get some food?"
"I have the money, let's talk about it later."
Liu Ziqiu thought to himself, I also want to get a set of armor, but the imperial ban does not allow it, and it is not useful even if I have money.
"Dong dong dong", the sound of war drums resounded through the sky, and the soldiers all fell silent and stood up straight. Except for the occasional neighing of the war horses, no one spoke, and the atmosphere outside the camp suddenly became serious.
Liu Ziqiu's regiment was at the end of the entire military formation. With his strong eyesight, he could not clearly see the situation in front. He could only vaguely see a group of cavalry escorting several generals flying towards them. Flags were flying.
The troops are well-organized, the armor is bright, and the troops are well-organized. They can be regarded as an elite division.
After three tongs and drums, the generals had already climbed onto the high platform in front of the military formation.
A person in the middle waved his hands and spoke generously. But from where Liu Ziqiu and the others stood, nothing could be heard. When Liu Ziqiu thought about it, this must be a mobilization. Sure enough, the soldiers in the front row let out bursts of shouts, followed closely by the soldiers behind them.
They also shouted, and Liu Ziqiu joined the others in shouting. After a while, the soldiers in the front row cheered again, and Liu Ziqiu and the others cheered too.
"Dang, dang, dang," there was a sound of gongs, and the morning rally ended. The 300,000-strong army was disbanded on the spot, and everyone returned to their camps to bury pots and make rice.
Hua Yun continued to act like the boss and drove the short fat man and the others out to work, but then he called Liu Ziqiu to his side and asked: "Brother Liu, with your stature, it will cost a lot of money to make a set of cowhide armor.
If it’s not enough, just ask.”
Liu Ziqiu smiled and said: "I can't tell, Brother Hua is a very righteous person. The money is not bad, but Liu doesn't know the rules. It would be great if he could make a few more decent weapons and bows and arrows."
Hua Yun frowned and said: "We are all military households. As long as we have money, weapons are not a problem. However, bows and arrows are not easy to handle. The one I have is a gift from the late emperor for my father's military exploits. It cannot be made by ordinary workshops.
.”
"Meet the general!" At this moment, there was a commotion outside the tent.
When Liu Ziqiu and Hua Yun knew that a big shot was coming, they did not dare to stay in the tent anymore and hurried out to greet them. They saw a general wearing a phoenix-winged helmet and a flower robe. Under the protection of several soldiers, a general
Touring tent after tent.
The general looked up and saw Liu Ziqiu. He was startled and said in surprise: "Brother Liu, when did you become a military householder?"
When Liu Ziqiu looked carefully, he recognized Han Shi'er and hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "General Han, Liu is just a soldier under your command now."
"Brothers you and me, how can we be superior?" Han Shi'e seemed to have something to say, but there were many people around him. He cupped his hands and said, "If Senior Brother Yao knew that you were here, I'm afraid he would be unhappy. During the Chinese New Year,
,Brothers, you can go into the city and have a talk!"
Liu Ziqiu was surprised and said: "How dare Liu, a small soldier, leave the military camp without permission?"
Han Shi'e chuckled and said: "Didn't you hear what General Yuwen said? It's almost the New Year, and there will be no drills for the soldiers. Everyone can move freely, as long as they don't go too far. I will inform you of the brigade commander later.
Just say it, it’s no problem to go there for three to five days.”
Although the army has been assembled, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. From the generals and generals to the brigade commanders and captains below, no one is willing to put their minds here. Everyone takes turns to go home to celebrate the New Year, and only a few families are left in the camp.
Officers from other places were on duty. The soldiers did not need to drill, and the discipline was relatively relaxed. This was the source of the cheers just now.
Liu Ziqiu originally thought that there would be military formation drills in the afternoon. He also wanted to see the legendary circular formation, square formation, cone formation, and long snake formation. However, it turned out that it was the Spring Festival holiday, and he was secretly a little regretful. However,
He was very happy to have the opportunity to go to Luoyang to meet Li Jing. Even if he had not set a future goal, after all, Li Jing was still his sworn brother.
Han Shi'er also wanted to inspect other camps, and he made an appointment with Liu Ziqiu and went elsewhere. Hua Yun suddenly punched Liu Ziqiu hard on the chest and said, "Brother Liu, you can't tell that you can actually compete with General Han Lang."
call each other brothers."
Humpty Dumpty and the others also looked at Liu Ziqiu with awe.
Liu Ziqiu smiled and said: "He will be his general and I will be my soldier. When we go to the battlefield in the future, we will not have to rely on brothers to protect each other."
Hua Yun stroked his palms and said, "That's the truth! When we practice in the future, everyone should cheer up and don't go to the battlefield and drag others down."
Everyone responded in succession, but only the short fat man said disdainfully: "Don't worry, in my opinion, our mission is to escort food and supplies to the battlefield, so there are very few opportunities."
Hua Yun said sternly: "While the troops and horses have not moved, the food and grass have to go first. Transporting food is not a trivial matter. The most important thing is to guard against enemy sneak attacks."
Suddenly I heard someone shouting: "Liu Ziqiu!"
Liu Ziqiu looked back and saw that it was Liu Yu who hurriedly gave a military salute and said loudly: "Here you are!"
Liu Yu waved his hand with a smile on his face and said: "Liu Ziqiu, Liu knows your skills and wanted to promote you as a team leader. However, you have not accomplished anything yet and may not be able to convince others, so I have to ask you to be a team leader first. How about that?"
?”
Everyone knew very well, except for the short fat man who knew a little bit, how could anyone else know whether Liu Ziqiu was good or bad? It must have been Han Shi'e who just said hello to Liu Yu.
The team leader was originally a short and fat man. Even if Liu Ziqiu was not appointed, he would soon fall into Hua Yun's hands. However, he did not expect that the appointment would come so quickly, which made him a little frustrated. But then he thought that Liu Ziqiu and Hua Yun would soon become two tigers.
Competing will inevitably add a little more expectation.
Unexpectedly, Liu Ziqiu declined and said: "This little brother Hua Yun has superb martial arts skills and is the best at convincing people. He must be the leader of the gang."
Liu Yu was an upright person, and he was not ashamed of Han Shi'e's behavior of opening the back door. It was only because of his identity that he had to show his attitude. Since Liu Ziqiu took the initiative to give way, and Hua Yun had witnessed one against eight yesterday, Liu Yu
Yu Ye stopped insisting and just pondered for a moment before saying, "That's fine, Hua Yun will be the team leader, Liu Ziqiu and Gui Hai, and you two will be the team leader."
Only then did Liu Ziqiu know that the short fat man was called Gui Haiqiu, but he had never asked his name.
After eating an unpalatable breakfast, the soldiers had nothing to do. Most of the soldiers had no relatives or friends in Luoyang, and no spare money in their hands. They could only stay in the camp and not run around. This was why the generals dared to leave the camp.
A reason to come home.
But Liu Ziqiu was thinking about armor and weapons, and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Hua, you are a local, can you take Liu to buy some outfits?"
Hua Yun patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll keep it on my body. There is a town thirty miles west of the camp. There is a blacksmith shop there. The black man is a good blacksmith. The knife I have is his."
He was beaten. If you have money, just ask him to wear a pair of iron leaf armor."
Gui Haiqiu said with disdain: "Why are you wearing iron leaf armor? That thing is flashy!"
