Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 8 Mess with me, there is meat to eat

The south wind from the snow-capped mountains melts the snow juice and turns it into the water of the Minjiang River.

I don't know how many paintings have been raised, but I feel that there are thousands of thunder in front of the building.

The Minjiang River, as one of the several important water systems in Bashu, is an important factor why this place can become the land of abundance.

The famous Dujiangyan is on this river, just to the northwest of Chengdu, the destination of Liu Chan's trip.

They came overland when they set off, and now they returned northward on the boat provided by the county magistrate Zhang for free.

After all, with so many old and weak women and children, and so much food and grass escorted, even a retrograde ship is much faster than going by land.

And people cannot march day and night, but they can sail day and night by rowing oars in turn.

The only downside is that...

"vomit--!"

Because it was his first time on a boat, Hu Li, who was very excited when he first came up, was already hugging the gang of the boat, and vomited all the meat that had been stuffed into his belly at the county magistrate Zhang's house into the river.

Two legs were more limp than the third, and I almost couldn't stand up.

"Master, my lord...how long will it take us...to get off the boat?"

Although the boat is sailing against the current this time, there is a tailwind.

Liu Chan made some calculations and said with a smile: "At most two days, you can reach Chengdu."

After hearing this, Hu Li turned blue again: "yue——!!"

……

Most of the people living in the mountains all year round have never been on a boat, and there are not a few people like Hu Li, or even worse.

Fortunately, the wind and waves in the river are not like the sea, and most of them got used to it after a long time, and finally there was no non-combat loss of personnel when they disembarked.

After they landed, the road became lively.

Travelers on the road, cargo convoys, traveling merchants...

Even in troubled times, at least around Chengdu, there is still some stability.

Liu Chan did not bring all the people in the cottage back to Chengdu, but divided his troops into two groups, escorting the old and weak, women and children along the way.

On the other road he was on, he brought the young and strong in the village to an open land more than ten miles away from Chengdu City.

A large camp built of logs was built here. Unlike the temporary camp they set up on the road, it looked like it could easily accommodate at least a thousand people.

The top of the wooden wall is sharpened. Outside the gate of the village, there is a Juma and Wangwang tower with four corners. There are flags on the wall, and a big Liu character written on the red border flag.

This is the base camp of Liu Chan's daily garrison and training.

It was also rumored to be the place where he hung out with refugees and bandits every day.

Every log here was cut and built by him without any help from others.

With the acquiescence of Zhuge Junshi, although other officials complained about Liu Chan's behavior of building illegal buildings privately, it was not easy to interfere.

The sentry on the watchtower had seen Liu Chan's team early on, and when they approached, hundreds of strong men came out in a file.

Quickly lined up in front of them, then knelt down on one knee.

"Congratulations, Major General!"

The shouts were neat and powerful, with extraordinary momentum, exactly the same as the soldiers under Liu Chan's command.

At least Hu Li didn't see any difference.

If I had to say it, they all had envy on their faces.

Hu Li didn't know what they were envious of, at least they wouldn't be bandits who had surrendered like himself...

Liu Chan nodded: "Get up, go back to camp and practice as usual."

"Yes!"

These people went back like when they came here.

"The villain thought that the lord had only five hundred soldiers under his command, but he didn't expect that the lord was so confident that he only brought out five hundred." Hu Li sighed.

Feeling like this group of bandits is nothing in the eyes of the lord, and they don't bring any extra soldiers.

"Huh? I really only have five hundred soldiers. They are not enough to be soldiers, they are just a reserve team."

"..."

Hu Li, who had just recovered from seasickness, almost spat out another mouthful of old blood.

Such a well-trained man is not fucking enough to be a soldier? ?
In other words, what are the conditions for being a soldier?
It was the first time I heard that Hu Lichang was so old. Isn't it just a man who is a soldier and can live?

If you catch up with the government's compulsory military service, you can't even think about it. How can there be any conditions?
We've been together for a few days, and Liu Chan knows what's going on in his heart just by looking at this kid's expression.

But at this time he didn't go into details, he just said: "You take the young and strong in the village first to have a look, if you want to join my army as a soldier stay, if you don't want to, I will arrange a place with the old and the weak, I will never force it. "

Seeing this, Hu Li didn't ask any more questions, and went in with more than 200 young and strong people who were also curious.

What puzzled him was that the soldiers escorting him all the way were smiling at this moment.

The composition of that smile is a bit complicated, like waiting to see a joke, but also seems a little nostalgic.

After about a moment.

These men scrambled to come out again, their eyes turned green.

Plop, plop, kneel down, some people even used high-end techniques such as sliding and kneeling.

"I would like to be a soldier!"

"I would too!"

"I came out first!"

"I knelt first!"

These bandits immediately quarreled into a mess, which was in stark contrast to the soldiers who were slaughtering in front of them.

Hu Li, who followed behind, felt a little ashamed, and the people in his cottage were too worthless.

There's no way, they're all rough people who haven't seen the world, and they can't be expected to kneel so gracefully like me.

"My lord! And me, me, Hu Li! Who the hell is pulling my pants!"

Hu Li came out late, but now he pushed forward violently, but he was pulled back by pushing and grabbing after he didn't squeeze very far.

The others are also green-eyed, the cottage is disbanded, everyone is surrendering, who cares whether you are the former village owner or not.

Liu Chan also found it a little funny, this is not the first time this scene has been staged.

Of course he knew why it had this effect, because it was meal time, and the camp should be eating.

Before the bandits entered the barracks, they smelled a strong smell of meat.

This is not the smell of air-dried meat. The thieves who had just opened meat at County Magistrate Zhang knew it was stewed fresh meat as soon as they smelled it!

Although it is relatively cheap and smelly pork, it is still meat!

A bandit wiped his halazi, mustered up the courage to go up and ask, is it possible that today is some kind of holiday?
The soldiers of the reserve team approached mysteriously and told him quietly...

"What?! Eat meat every day?"

With the unbelievable yelling of a bandit, the crowd completely boiled, and then there was the scene just now...

……

Liu Chan winked at Li Er who was beside him, and Li Er nodded.

"quiet!"

He slammed the spear in his hand to the ground and yelled violently.

tom!
"quiet!"

The other soldiers also followed suit and shouted loudly.

Five hundred voices merged into one, shaking the bandits' eardrums with pain.

The black-armored soldiers lined up with spear points, and the cold light was shining, and a chilling aura was immediately revealed.

The noisy bandits immediately quieted down, including Hu Li who had a few big footprints on his clothes.

"Everyone is very enthusiastic, which is great, but... the soldiers under my hands are not anyone who wants to be a soldier.

"Today, you have a good meal first, so that you can rest. Tomorrow, we will select on the school grounds, and those who pass will enter the reserve team."

Seeing the playful expression on Liu Chan's face, Hu Li couldn't help shivering.

Judging by the expression on the lord's face, I'm afraid this selection is not something that can be passed easily...

However, Liu Chan's expression froze quickly, and when he slapped his forehead, it seemed that something serious had happened.

"Hoo~~" He put his finger on his lips and whistled loudly, and the black horse that was grazing leisurely in the open space galloped towards him immediately.

Liu Chan jumped on the horse neatly, and whipped the horse away without looking back.

"Li Er, leave this to you!"

Lao Luo, the captain of the personal guard, also got on his horse in a hurry, while the other guards of Baimai ran and chased at an astonishing speed.

Liu Chan did remember a big event... He promised that whenever he was away from home, he would send someone back to report his mother's safety every month, but this time he forgot.

If he is pregnant with Zhao Yun's [Unyielding] and [Long Dan], what else in this world is his eldest son Liu afraid of.

Apart from the soles of his father Liu's shoes, only the tears of his stepmother Mrs. Wu...

"I hope mom won't make any trouble..."
