After receiving the military order, we rushed to the Dibei post that night.
In addition to a corps commander who came to lead the way from Dibei Post, he was accompanied by several new soldiers.
Those new recruits were no better than Lei Xingkong. They were assigned to the Dibei outpost, and of course they were all as listless as eggplants beaten by frost.
Lei Xingkong was not familiar with them, so he didn't have much to say on the way.
On the other hand, the corps commander, who was about forty or fifty years old, heard that Lei Xingkong had invited him to the Dibei outpost on his own, so he started chatting with him as soon as he left the gate of the county army camp.
"Little boy, your name is Lei Xingkong, tell me what you think, why do you want to go to Dibei Post?"
It's not like playing truth or dare. Lei Xingkong certainly won't tell the truth. He can only make some nonsense in a serious manner: "I heard that it is very difficult at Dibei Post. But I recently joined the army, so I thought I could go there."
If you train hard there, you will be able to serve the country in the future, so I asked to go there myself."
"Tsk..." When the old corps commander heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "You little kid, you really don't know how high the world is. Is Dibei Outpost accessible to ordinary people? I've been there for five or six years.
I don’t know how many young people I have seen who are like you... no, even stronger than you, all of them think they have some strength and think about how to show off their abilities all day long, but in the end, they can’t even find their bones.”
It is definitely not an easy thing to stay at Dibei Post for five or six years and still survive.
Lei Xingkong reached into his arms, took out a small gourd, and handed it to the old team leader skillfully: "Uncle, please tell me about Dibei Post, so that I can understand how to act in the future.
.”
The gourd contained a few cents of turbid wine. Although it was not an expensive thing, it was the favorite of veterans in the army.
Lei Xingkong's small gourd was given to him by Xiahou Meng, and it came in handy at this time.
"You're pretty good, little kid!"
The old team leader took the gourd unceremoniously, took a sip, and then said: "At Dibei Post, the most important thing is to save your life. There are no enemies to kill and no achievements to make. Saving your life is the first priority.
Son."
Hearing the old corps leader speak, except for Lei Xingkong, the other recruits also listened attentively.
"How can I save my life?"
"That's a good question!" The old team leader took another sip of wine, "How can we save our lives? It's actually not difficult, just one word - hide!"
"hide?"
"That's right, just hide." The old team leader pointed out: "In the Wuyuan Desert, the most common people you encounter when you go out on patrol are barbarians and wild beasts. At this time, if you want to save your life, you have to hide. As long as you hide,
, to survive.”
"I see!"
If Lei Xingkong wanted to save his life, why would he come to Dibei Post?
Now he is eager to meet some barbarians and wild beasts, so that he can carry out his plan of stealing souls and practicing martial arts.
Although I had other ideas in mind, I also felt that the old team leader was not a bad person, at least he was kind enough to "point out" these new recruits.
Lei Xingkong asked again: "I wonder what's so scary about those barbarians and wild beasts?"
The old corps commander has stayed at Dibei Post for a long time, so he can naturally talk about these things eloquently.
"Let's talk about the barbarians first. I heard that they are the remnants of ancient times. They are born with great strength. It is difficult for four soldiers to deal with one barbarian. If there are three or five barbarians in a group, dozens of people will not be able to deal with it. So we see
They can only hide or turn around and run!"
"Then there are the wild beasts. The wild beasts that are too powerful are all deep in the Wuyuan Desert. They usually don't come to us for trouble. They are just some not very powerful wild beasts, but they often cannot find food in that desert. , but ran out."
"The most annoying thing here is the wild beasts that live in groups, such as bloodthirsty demon rats and dark feather crows. If you encounter one or two, it is actually not difficult to deal with, but if you encounter a nest... well, then Then you consider yourself unlucky and ask for more blessings!"
After drinking, the old corps leader began to talk more and more, and he told the horrible things about those wild beasts one by one, which frightened the new recruits who were watching so that their faces turned pale and their legs trembled when they walked. They couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Although Lei Xingkong had been to the Wuyuan Desert and had seen strange things, listening to the description of the old team leader, he found it very interesting. There were some things that he had never encountered before.
More than ten days passed.
The group finally arrived at Dibei Post...
"Relax, relax. We are home now. You guys wait here while I go in and report to the camp."
The old captain said something to Lei Xingkong and the others, turned around and walked towards the big house in the middle of the post.
Lei Xingkong looked around and frowned slightly.
From the moment he entered the gate of the guard post, he strongly felt the difference here.
Inside the county army camp, the layout is neat and clean, the soldiers are in order, and it looks like a strong army.
But here——
Everywhere was dirty and messy, and there was a musty smell in the air.
There were many soldiers around, lying or sitting in various places, some basking in the sun, some scratching lice, all looking lazy.
When they saw Lei Xingkong and the other recruits, they all started chatting and laughing in an extremely frivolous voice. In their words, they could faintly hear dirty words such as "little rabbit man" and "fine skin and tender meat".
Lei Xingkong remained calm and calm.
The faces of the other recruits turned paler, and the situation in the outpost made them feel that their future was bleak.
After a while, the old man came out.
Behind him, there were two more people.
The person on the left is a middle-aged man. The man is tall and strong, but he has rosacea on his face, which is red and swollen. He looks drunk, probably drinking all day long.
Lei Xingkong could see that this man had good cultivation and had reached the third level of Canglong Jue.
The other person is also middle-aged, shorter, but also physically strong.
His eyes were soft and sharp, like a poisonous snake.
"Sir, they are the new recruits assigned to us this time."
The old corps commander pointed at the burly middle-aged man and introduced to the new recruits: "This is Zhang Yingzheng. Everything in the post is decided by our Lord Yingzheng."
"See Lord Yingzheng!"
This was the future chief officer. Lei Xingkong and the other recruits quickly saluted.
Zhang Yingzheng waved his hand: "No need to be polite!"
Zhang Yingzheng opened his mouth when a smell of alcohol hit his nostrils. Except for Lei Xingkong, several recruits couldn't help but frown slightly.
Zhang Yingzheng was in a daze and said to himself: "Now that we are here, we are brothers from now on. Everything can be done as you please. As for camp duties such as outings and outings, Han Juncheng will arrange them... Well, I drank too much last night. I'm still a little sleepy, so let's do this first!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked away neatly.
The old corps commander glanced at Zhang Yingzheng's back, then pointed at the other short middle-aged man and introduced: "This is Han Juncheng. All military orders in the post must be recorded by Juncheng before being issued."
"See Mr. Jun Cheng!"
The recruits saluted again.
Han Juncheng raised his eyes and scanned the recruits from left to right, then pointed to the person on the far left and ordered: "Starting from you, name them one by one."
Recruits signed up one after another.
When Lei Xingkong arrived, a sharp light flashed in his eyes and disappeared in a flash.
After hearing the names of the new recruits, Han Juncheng waved his hand and said: "Okay, that's it for today. Old Man Qiu, you take them down to arrange their accommodation first. The patrol camp will have its own arrangements later." After saying that, he turned and left.
The old corps commander and others walked away and then said: "These two are the people in charge of the camp. There are two other corps commanders. You will go and see them later when your assignments are complete."
In Dayong's military system, ten people are assigned to a corps, each corps has a corps commander, and three corps is a battalion, with a battalion commander.
There happens to be a battalion of people at Dibei Post, and Lei Xingkong will have to eat among this battalion from now on.
