Late Tang

(Thanks to book friends 091 1083937663, Hunting Iron Cavalry, wssssssss88, Golden Earth for their monthly ticket support and generous rewards, thank you everyone! Today’s seventh update, nearly [-] words! Big explosion, brother also gave Muzi a little monthly ticket and Give it a reward!)

Yang Xingmi and the others stood carefully on the side of the road, looking up at them as they passed by.After the team entered the city, Yang Xingmi smiled and asked the officer guarding the gate: "Just now this is the town's commander, Marshal Li, right? It's really like a dragon and a tiger."

The officer guarding the gate laughed: "The one who just passed by is our captain's guard battalion Captain Gao Sixiang. The third disciple under the tent, Jiedu Yaya Jiedu Pioneer and the soldiers and horses made the Black Banner Army Zuoying the left three generals head Gao Siji."

Hearing this, Yang Xingmi felt very embarrassed. He never expected that a small guard general in the town would have such pomp and demeanor.I was so envious in my heart, what would the elder brother and father of the high school lieutenant look like, and what would Li Jing, the commander of the town army, look like.

The officer guarding the gate called a soldier and asked him to lead Yang Xingmi and the others to receive the reward.

Entering Xishoujiang City, Yang Xingmi was surprised to find that this city outside the Great Wall was more prosperous and lively than the Lingzhou City he had seen once, and even more lively than Luzhou City in Jianghuai.Looking at the bustling shops along the street, Yang Xingmi was a little dizzy.

Finally, the soldier led him to a government office and left.

"This is the temporary office of General Guo, the secretary in charge of the town government. You go in directly, and someone will take care of your affairs."

Things were just as the little soldier said, although they didn't see the secretary Guo Cheng'an after they went in, some clerks also met them.After a set of complicated procedures, their identities and credits were finally confirmed, and finally a reward of [-] pennies was paid out.

Yang Xingmi took out one hundred guan, and after thinking about it, he simply took out [-] guan to honor this Shangguan.

But the clerk refused to accept it. In the end, Yang Xingmi gave way for a long time, but he didn't accept it.

"This kind of thing is not popular in the town hall. If you insist on giving it, it will make me break discipline. If I am found out, I will lose my job." The clerk is a scribe in his forties, with a temper. very good.

Hearing this, Yang Xingmi had no choice but to take it back in embarrassment, but he was even more curious and surprised by this town.

"Brother, we all admire the great reputation of Li Zhenguo and Brother Zhen, and we also want to join the army. I wonder if there is such a chance." Yang Xingmi finally expressed his thoughts.

"Aren't you the garrison of Shuofang?"

"It is true now, but we admire Li Dashuai very much and want to switch to Li Dashuai."

The clerk shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't work. The town is not recruiting troops now that the guest army is out. What's more, you are still garrison soldiers of the Shuofang army. This is even more impossible. We can't do this, we can't, it will cause Shuofang The military misunderstood."

Hearing such a rejection, Yang Xingmi felt very uncomfortable.Now he doesn't want to go back to the small garrison in Shuofang again, he is afraid of comparison in everything.I went out to see the town hall, and then thought about the Shuofang army. They didn't have enough food and no food, so they were simply exiled.

After hearing what Yang Xingmi said, the clerk was also helpless. This is the internal affairs of other people's towns, and the National Day is out of control.It would be better if they were acquaintances, but Mr. Zhen and Shuofang Jun had never dealt with each other before.

"It's better for you brothers to stay in Shuofang for the time being. After the garrison period expires, you can come to Dengzhou to join the army." The old clerk saw that Yang Xingmi was indeed a good-looking talent, and he was very well-behaved, so he gave him an idea. .

This is the end of the matter, and there is no other way.Yang Xingmi had no choice but to say goodbye reluctantly, and when he got to the street, he went to the store to choose two pieces of tea cakes and a few pieces of high-quality fabric, and finally entrusted the store clerk to give them to the clerk.

After Tian Kai, Xu Wen and others saw that the matter of switching to the town government failed, they couldn't help but feel depressed and disappointed.

Seeing that everyone was depressed, Yang Xingmi laughed and said: "We just received a large reward, everyone should be happy. Eighteen hundred guan, we will divide it by head, and each person will have [-] guan. Let's go, just now I saw a very It’s a nice restaurant, we brothers will also go to have a big meal and celebrate.”

At present, a few people chose the restaurant facing the street, and chose the private room on the second floor. Yang Xingmi directly bid ten coins: "Guys, just pick your good dishes and serve them, and a few jars of good wine. Ten coins are not enough for you." Give it again."

36 put several tables together, eat meat and drink happily.When he was halfway through drinking, he suddenly heard the sound of gongs sounding from above the street, and Yang Xingmi looked up.

I saw the signs of quietness and avoidance in the front, and the official position cards in the back. The first card was Qi Guogong, and then there were ministers of the Ministry of punishment, general Jinwu, general of the town army, governor of Dengzhou, and Jiedu envoy of the town. , the observation envoy of the town **, the envoy of the camp field of the town **, the guard of Andong Dadu and the guard of Andong Dadu...

There are dozens of signs with official positions on them, and Yang Xingmi's eyes are dazzled.

After these signs are raised, there are six big banners behind them, and then there are double banners and double festivals.Then came Li Jing's three battalions of guards, silver saddles, silver guns, and white horses.Then there are infantry battalions, heavy cavalry battalions, etc.The army drove by all the way, making Yang Xingmi's eyes straight.

After that, Li Jing finally appeared, riding a five-foot-tall majestic horse, wearing a gold-plated red unicorn armor, with a jade sword hanging from his waist, and his spirits flowed between glances.Around him, there are more than a dozen generals, six of them are very young, but they are all flying freely, with an indescribable heroic spirit.He couldn't help thinking to himself, this should be Li Jing's six disciples.Sure enough, he is a dragon and a phoenix among people, a hero for a while.

It's just that he couldn't join such a good army, and Yang Xingmi felt a bitterness in his heart.

Standing by the window, Yang Xingmi drank the Yellow River from his cup in one gulp, and exclaimed: "A man should be like this!"

Tian Kai and Xu Wen stood at the back, and their eyes were full of splendor. "Brother, stay away for another two years. When we return to Huainan, we will no longer be soldiers. We will definitely go to other towns. Look at their style. It is said that this town has never been defeated. And the salary The salary is generous and the treatment is excellent. I heard that in Dengzhou, as long as you become a town secretary, you don’t have to worry about finding a beautiful lady. I heard that many landlords and merchants are vying to tell their daughters to the town secretary A sergeant is a wife."

"Yes, if one day, I can also serve as a silver spear guard for Li Zhenguo, carrying a silver spear, riding a white horse, and wearing silver armor, I don't know how majestic it will be." Liu Wei also had a full face. Said longingly.

Everyone stopped drinking for a while, and they competed to talk about Li Jing's majesty and the heroism of the suppressing soldiers.

But the more Yang Xingmi listened to it, the more uncomfortable he felt. Do princes and generals have a kindness?

It seems that Li Jing is not from a family of powerful and powerful eunuchs. Just when Xiao Er came up to serve food, Yang Xingmi stopped Xiao Er and said, "Do you know where Li Zhenguo came from?"

That guy has been asked a lot of questions like this recently, and he is already very familiar with it, so he opened his mouth and said: "I don't know what the guest officer is. Speaking of this Marshal Li, his experience is quite legendary. The ancestors of Marshal Li's family have always been Pinglu Military Primary School, but when his grandfather was in his generation, his grandfather died in battle, and later his father abandoned martial arts to study literature, and Li Dashuai also studied literature in his early years. But later, Li Dashuai's father and two older brothers died early, and Li Dashuai Supported the whole family and farmed at home. Changed to martial arts, and later responded to the imperial court’s call for united soldiers... Li Dashuai was like this, from a scholar to a farmer, and then became a Tutuan farmer, and finally became a garrison soldier, town general, and finally Promoted step by step, relying on one victory after another, and finally became the current commander-in-chief of the town."

Yang Xingmi took out a bunch of [-] Wen coins from his pocket and handed them to the little second, "Thank you little brother." The little second got the money and left with a smile on his face.

Xiao Er left, but his words kept ringing in his ears.

Li Jing turned out to be just a farmer, not much better than himself as an orphan.But why did Li Jing start from scratch in a short period of time, and now he has become a commander in chief of the imperial court.As for himself, he couldn't even be one of his soldiers.

Li Jing is also human, and Yang Xingmi is also human. They are about the same age and have similar experiences. If he can, why can't he.

"Brother, what are you thinking about? If you're so preoccupied, don't you miss your sister-in-law?" Xu Wen asked with a smile.

Yang Xingmi turned his head sharply to stare at Xu Wen, with eagerness and impulsiveness in his eyes, which startled Xu Wen. "Brother, people say that you have been in the army for three years, and the old sow Sai Diaochan, you won't hold back for too long, even my brother, I will not let you go, although I look a little bit like Fan An..."

Yang Xingmi kicked Xu Wen to the ground directly, and scolded with a smile: "I'm telling you something serious."

Xu Wen smiled and said, "What's the matter, but the big brother's eyes were really scary just now."

"Seeing Li Jing's majesty and splendor just now, what do you think?" Yang Xingmi said.

"It would be great if I could follow Marshal Li in this life." Xu Wen said honestly.

Yang Xingmi shook his head: "We want to be with Li Jing, but he doesn't want us. Tell me, are you really willing to go back to that small village for two years?"

"Otherwise, what can we do?" Xuzhou said dejectedly, and then he was startled, "Brother doesn't mean he wants to be a deserter, but if he is caught, it will be a death penalty!"

Yang Xingmi didn't answer directly, but said quietly: "I've been listening to Xiao Er's story of Li Jing's fortune just now, and it can be summed up in one word. It will kill the bold and starve the timid."

"But..." Xuzhou was still a little worried and hesitant.

Yang Xingmi patted him on the shoulder and said: "Why, back then we sold smuggled salt and were robbers, which is not a brainless thing. You were scared at the beginning, but now you have been an officer and soldier for a few days, and you have withdrawn your courage?"

Xu Wen's face was a little red, and he poked his neck and said: "Brother, you are our leader, you can do whatever you want, I will follow you."

Yang Xingmi called other brothers, "What about you?"

Both Tian Kai and Tai Meng took the lead and said: "You are the elder brother, you can make up your own mind. Whether it's a deserter, or going to sell salt and become a robber, we will follow the elder brother."

Seeing the brothers being so united, Yang Xingmi was very pleased.He slapped the table excitedly, "Okay, then let's go back to Huainan tomorrow!" (To be continued.)
