Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1013 Xue Rengui

"It's simple, it only takes one stroke."

Jin Yuanbao smiled and said: "My King has no strong generals. If you can borrow a strong general from Tang Dynasty, it will be easy to kill Tian Yigeng."

Jin Yuanbao told Li Shimin and the others about the situation. After listening to Li Shimin, he said without much hesitation, "Okay, I, Datang, accept the condition of your king, Tieniu."

Soon, Tie Niu stood up.

"My lord, what are your orders?"

"You follow this Jin Yuanbao to Qingzhou City, and according to Cui Xianzhi's arrangement, kill Tian Yigeng. Remember, after killing Tian Yigeng, come back immediately without delay in Qingzhou."

Hearing that he wanted to go to Gyeongju to kill Tian Yigeng himself, Tieniu felt a little displeased.

"Your Majesty, you can send other people to this matter. I will be responsible for your safety."

"Don't worry, I won't go to war with Silla, there is no danger for now, and this matter, only a fierce general like you can do it."

Li Shimin was a little bit persistent, so Tieniu had no choice but to give up and said, "I'll just take orders."

After saying this, Tieniu followed Jin Yuanbao and left the Datang barracks, and hurried towards Qingzhou.

However, when Li Shimin reached a cooperation agreement with Cui Xianzhi, the king of Silla, Qin Tian and Gao Shilian had already arrived in Liaocheng and began to recruit soldiers and horses here.

Although they came together, they recruited soldiers and horses not in one place, each recruited their own.

Although Liao City is relatively prosperous and has a larger population, the conditions for conscription here are obviously not enough to meet their needs, so Qin Tian and the others are only going to stay here for four or five days, and after four or five days, they will go to other places to continue recruit.

Qin Tian sent people to shout propaganda on the street, and even sent people to put up conscription notices, which stated what kind of treatment would be given after serving as a soldier, and some settling allowances, etc.

Because a large number of soldiers are needed, and the time is tight, the settling expenses and so on are very generous.

After Qin Tian posted these notices, the effect was very significant. Within a day or two, thousands of soldiers were recruited.

Gao Shilian's situation is similar here.

Liaocheng feels a little hot for conscription.

At this moment, in a restaurant in Liaocheng, several men were drinking. The leader was a man with a burly figure and an extraordinary appearance.

"Brother Xue, now the imperial court has lost a battle in Anshi City and needs to recruit soldiers and horses. Didn't you always want to join the army and make contributions? Now is really an opportunity."

The man who became Big Brother Xue took a sip of wine and said, "That's right, that's exactly what I want to do. I don't know what the brothers think?"

"Where Brother Xue goes, we must go there too."

"That's right, we've been following Big Brother Xue all our lives. When Big Brother Xue becomes famous, we will also be famous. Whatever Brother Xue is, we will do."

These few people seemed to admire this man surnamed Xue very much, as if they would support whatever this man did.

After the man saw these people, he nodded: "Okay, these are my good brothers Xue Rengui. Today, I, Xue Rengui, made an oath that if I become famous, I will not forget these brothers."

As Xue Rengui spoke, several other people also hurriedly spoke.

"Brother doesn't need to swear, we can all trust him."

"That's right, I, Zhou Qing, have been with Big Brother for so many years, don't I know Big Brother?"

A few men said this, very hot-blooded, they are only in their twenties, and they are also hot-blooded.

After saying this, Zhou Qing asked: "Brother, there are now two groups of people in Liaocheng who are recruiting soldiers, one group belongs to Qin Tian and Qin's young master, and the other group belongs to Gao Shilian Gao. I don't know Brother Xue, you want to join us?" Who will go?"

Zhou Qing asked, Xue Rengui thought for a moment, and said: "In the entire Tang Dynasty, in terms of character and achievements, Young Master Qin is undoubtedly the most dazzling. I admire him very much, and I am going to take refuge in him."

Qin Tian is a few years older than Xue Rengui. However, Qin Tian's reputation has already been prominent throughout the Tang Dynasty. In the eyes of Xue Rengui's peers, Qin Tian is already considered a senior. character.

Therefore, when he said that he wanted to join Qin Tian, ​​he didn't feel the slightest awkwardness.

After Zhou Qing and the others listened, they all nodded quickly.

"I also think that Young Master Qin is a good man, and it's okay to rely on him."

"Besides, Young Master Qin is very capable. Follow him and you will surely make great achievements."

After a few people finished talking, the jar of wine was almost full, and because it was already autumn, all they drank were drunk beauties.

And after eating a pot of drunken beauties, they were already a little bit drunk.

But drunkenness is the most arousing feeling, so after they left the restaurant, they went directly to the place where they were recruited and prepared to sign up for the army.

They were walking on the street like this, and soon they met a group of conscripts. The leading man was dressed in fine clothes. He kept looking on the street to see who was young and strong, and immediately waved and shouted: "Take away .”

"Take this too..."

In a short time, they took away several men walking on the street.

When these men were taken away, they resisted very much.

"You...you let me go, I'm not a soldier, I'm the only son in my family, I'm not a soldier."

"You...you are catching young men, you are breaking the law, I am a teacher, you let me go back..."

These men who were forcibly captured kept yelling, and Xue Rengui and the others understood what was going on after listening for a while.

It turned out that the imperial court was arresting strong men, and they would take away those who could fight, no matter whether they were willing or not.

And from the words of these people, they learned that these people are Gao Shilian's soldiers.

Seeing this, Xue Rengui and others were a little angry.

They know that sometimes the imperial conscripts are indeed forced, but it must be at a time of national crisis, and even if it is forced, it is not done casually. The only child in the family cannot be recruited, and scholars cannot be recruited. So many conditions.

Unless these people voluntarily.

But now that Gao Shilian's people are forcibly recruiting soldiers like this, it is indeed a violation of the court law.

"Hmph, this Gao Shilian is really abominable. He even forcibly arrested the young man." Seeing this situation, Zhou Qing couldn't help but get angry.

Xue Rengui is also a little angry here, but this is a matter for the court. He is just a grassroots man now, so what can he do?
So after taking a look at Zhou Qing, he said, "Let's go, let's go to the conscription office of Young Master Qin. We can't control the affairs here."

Zhou Qing was still a little resentful, but he didn't explode.

And just when they were about to leave, the man in the fancy dress in front suddenly shouted: "These are not bad, they are all caught."
