Chapter 133 Joining forces and joining the army in Beifu
In September, the sixth year of Taiyuan in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
It's the crisp autumn weather, and all the grain in the fields has been harvested. Farmers who have been busy for most of the year begin to gather together in small groups to brag and practice martial arts. The buffaloes lie down in the fields, waving their tails and patting leisurely.
With the gadfly on his body, it looks like a peaceful and comfortable scene.
Liu Yu was wearing short clothes and carrying a parcel on his back. Inside was a few changes of clothes. Around his waist was a small cloth bag containing one hundred and fifty coins. This was his travel expenses to Guangling. Early this morning,
He said goodbye to his mother and two younger brothers, and was about to run to the unknown front. But now, he was standing on a small hill in front of Qili Village, looking back at his hometown, with ups and downs in his heart and a myriad of thoughts.
A call brought Liu Yu's thoughts back to reality: "Ji Nu, wait for me."
Liu Yu raised the corners of his mouth in dissatisfaction, and looked at Liu Muzhi, who was out of breath and was shaking as he ran.
Speaking of which, if you continue to scream every day after joining the army, I will..."
Liu Muzhi laughed: "What do you want? Beat me? Jinu, you are a real man and you must keep your word. You said I can call you this."
Liu Yu sighed and slapped himself bitterly: "Grandma, why did you say this before? Well, now my nickname is going to spread, and even the poor people and outsiders will know it.
La."
Liu Muzhi smiled and shook his head: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with this nickname. Send a slave, send a slave, maybe it has another meaning."
Liu Yu's heart moved: "How do you say this?"
Liu Muzhi put away his smile and said sternly: "This sending can mean to live in someone else's home, or it can mean that a hero has a temporary shelter. Living under someone's fence is also sending, but it is just a man who is temporarily frustrated. At that time, Henkel was no more than
As the head of a pavilion, Han Xin was even more humiliated. This was just a sting before they became rich. Didn’t even Emperor Shi Le of Shi Zhao once work as a slave? Compared with them, you are lucky.
.”
Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully: "So you mean, like a coiled dragon, I, as a slave, only lurk temporarily and can soar into the sky when I get the chance?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "That's right. We in Jingkou are really full of heroes, including you as a slave and a dragon!"
Liu Yu's expression changed, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a burst of laughter from the other side: "Oh, we have caught up. Brother Liu, you haven't crossed the river yet."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and looked to the south. Above the official road, there were Tan Pingzhi, Wei Yongzhi, and Wei Yongzhi's younger brother Wei Shunzhi. These three people were all dressed in fancy clothes, carrying eyebrow sticks, and carrying bows and arrows on their backs.
Walking together, they did not wear the disciple uniforms of Tianshi Dao today. Their clothes were washed clean. Although they had a few patches, they looked refreshed. Anyone who saw them would say they were heroes.
.
Liu Yu smiled and said: "I have to say goodbye to my mother, so I'm a little late. Why, instead of going to the ferry, do you still want to go around here?"
He glanced at the three of them and raised his lips: "Where's Brother Meng? Didn't he say he also wanted to join the army?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Brother Meng must have followed Liu Yi. They probably want to join the army, and they don't want to start as a soldier. They are not in the same league as us."
Tan Pingzhi nodded: "They left early in the morning. Brother Liu, I, Tan Pingzhi, refused to accept anyone before, but after I came to Jingkou, I accepted you. No matter where I am in the future, I will recognize you as my elder brother."
, are you willing to recognize me as your brother?"
Wei Yongzhi's three hare lips kept shaking: "Me too."
Liu Yu laughed, stepped forward and patted the shoulders of the three of them: "Good brothers, I didn't tell you, in fact, last time you were willing to help me kill the Diao brothers, we have already had a life-long friendship. From now on, we will be in the army.
We must work together and do something together.”
Tan Pingzhi nodded and looked in the direction of Jingkou City: "It's a pity that we didn't kill those two bitches and let them go to Guangzhou to take office. Hmm, I don't know how many people will be harmed by that time!"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "General Xie said that sooner or later we will settle accounts with them, but now that the enemy is facing us, we can't fight internally for the time being. Let's join the army and make meritorious deeds this time. After we have an official position, we can fight with this Diao
The fight."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "Okay, it's getting late, let's hit the road. As soon as the recruitment order comes out, there will be strong men joining the army from the land of Sanwu to Jingkou, and even Yanzhou and Yuzhou. If we don't leave quickly, we will just
I’m afraid I won’t be able to go to Guangling for dinner today!”
Liu Yu strode forward with a smile: "Let's go to Guangling, I'll treat everyone to a drink!"
Ten miles outside Guangling City, there is Baobao Lake.
This is a connected mooring land with flat terrain. On the edge of these small moorings, a huge barracks has been built. It is more than ten miles in radius and filled with people. A large number of civilians, each with a strong body, line up to camp.
Entering through the front door, and at the side door of the front camp, the new recruits who put on armor and changed into battle uniforms were taken out by their respective officers and walked towards their future military camp.
Liu Yu and his brothers stood in front of the camp gate, watching the strong men in front of them walking forward slowly one by one. Inside the camp gate, there were dozens of desks, some veterans in their thirties and forties,
Sitting behind the case, he asked and made plans for the warriors who had surrendered to the army standing in front of the case, and then issued wooden number plates one by one. The warriors who took the number plates were taken away by other soldiers one after another.
Put on your armor and officially become a member of this new army called the Beifu Army.
Tan Pingzhi looked at the hundreds of sergeants walking in from another camp gate and frowned: "Why do some people still want to go through the back door? They look like a whole army, why do they still come to surrender?"
Woolen cloth?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Brother Tan, you don't know. This time General Xie recruited troops, not only the common people from all over the country came to vote, but also many refugee commanders between the Huaihe River and Huaihe River directly organized their own sons and nephews, and even
The entire armed force came to join the army, like the one we have now, the shopkeeper Gao of Linjiangxian Restaurant in Jingkou. He has recruited three to four hundred brothers this time. I didn't even know he still had so many old troops."
Liu Yu nodded: "I am the same. I only knew that Uncle Gao came from the north, but I really didn't know that he had such great abilities. Look, Gao Yazhi, that kid, is now dressed up like a general.
"
While talking, Gao Yazhi across from him also saw Liu Yu and waved to him from a distance as a greeting.
Liu Yu was waiting to return the gift when he heard a familiar voice behind him: "Ah, Liu Yu, you are here too. We meet each other everywhere in life!"
