The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 179: The Recruit Egg Test

There are currently 8000 people stationed in the Shuofang Lingzhou General Military Region.The cavalry numbered 2000.The rest include chores.Logistics food soldiers.Firefighter.Staff.There are more than 9 people, including civil servants.So the population of Lingzhou Military Region is close to 20.

Guo Nuan and the others came to the Shuofang Military Region barracks sixteen miles away from Lingzhou City.They immediately arranged to rest in an ordinary soldier barracks that night.

I heard from my second brother that old man Guo rushed to Fengzhou in the north that night to inspect an army stronghold in Zhongzhen.It's summer.Generally, the Turks and Tartars spend a little leisure time on the grasslands during the Spring Festival, grazing and working.They will run to the cities on the border of the Tang Dynasty to loot and loot again.Guo Ziyi had to guard against it.In short, his father is very busy with his official duties.

Early the next morning.It's five o'clock.Guo Nuan, Da Biao and the others heard the deafening shouts of sergeants outside the barracks.

"Ugh. It's just dawn. Soldiers have been drilled on the school field so early. It's tiring to be a soldier."

Before Da Biao first came, he was very excited.He thought it would be exciting to join the army.Now feel the atmosphere of strict discipline in the barracks.He was very uncomfortable for a while.

"Quack. Fatty. There are still many things you don't get used to at the beginning. For example, my second brother told you not to violate the 'Seventeen Prohibition. 54 beheading.' Small punishments. Like whipping, cane and other messy things. That's enough for everyone to drink a pot."

"Oh. It seems that we have to pretend to be grandsons in the barracks." Da Biao had a drunken fit.But it seems that there is a time in the barracks where you can't drink alcohol.

"Guo Nuan. Da Biao. Is Liu Fu'an there?"

Just as Guo Nuan and Fatty were sitting and chatting on the plank bed.And Ah Fu next to him was sleeping soundly.A middle-aged capable soldier, Colonel Cao, opened the curtain of the barracks and walked in.

"This official. What's the matter?" Guo Nuan and Da Biao woke up the sleeping Ah Fu, and the three got out of bed quickly.

"According to the instructions of Zhang Lushi, who manages the military registration. Now I want to take the three of you to the infantry selection test." Bing Cao said solemnly.

Alfred yawned complacently.He rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked in doubt: "What infantry selection. Isn't Ah Fu serving the young master?"

"En. There are many young masters and many masters. I heard from Zhang Lushi that the three of you are his distant relatives who came from the capital."

Cao Guan, who looked very mighty with a saber slung across his waist, glanced lightly at Guo Nuan, the leader, "It was originally the recruitment point that was set up in Lingzhou City, Shuofang Military Region in autumn. If it weren't for the good relationship between Zhang Lushi and this officer. You scattered guys who report early don’t necessarily make it hard for me to recruit them.”

Soldiers talk a lot.He inadvertently revealed the reason.This made Guo Nuan and the others suddenly understand the relationship.oh.It turned out to be a source of airborne troops.Guo Nuan thought so.He sighed greatly.

"This is not Chang'an. Now that you have decided to enlist in the army, you have to let go of the airs of the young master. Once you become my soldier, even the royal family and nobles have to pretend to be my grandson. If you tell him to stand, you have to stand. You have to lie down. Military discipline is clear. Never procrastinate.”

Bing Cao seemed to have thought of something.Immediately put on the airs of the military master.I saw his face suddenly gloomy and shouted.The sudden shock made the three of them stand in a row of military postures in a daze.

"Master Zhang. Master Li. Where did we come from...relatives..." Fatty argued weakly.

"Yes, sir. That's what my lord taught me." Guo Nuan hurriedly elbowed the fat man who hadn't turned his head.He bowed and said yes.This guy doesn't have a good head sometimes.

Guo Nuan sighed secretly.Dad seemed to be farsighted.The secret work was ready overnight.He concealed his identity as a descendant of Guo Ziyi's family.Also temporarily placed a distant relative of Zhang Shenma.

The three of them followed Bing Cao and walked through the neat tents.They saw thousands of infantrymen in a huge and orderly formation on the wide school field in the distance.One eye at a time, one gesture at a time, and one gesture with a big knife.The soldiers yelled a chant with each wave.What they watched really made Guo Nuan and the three of them feel novel and shocked like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.

Passed the school grounds.They came to the armory, which was covered with felt sheds like vegetable greenhouses.There are many soldiers of various arms coming and going at the door of the warehouse.There are scouts.cavalry.infantry.Archer.civilian.Engineers, etc.There is also a large yard for training nearby.The soldiers inside are practicing their skills.Playing with stone locks.Climb the pole.archery.Roll a boulder ball.Crawling barbed wire.archery.Anti sandbags and more.

"Well, here we are. Come in and go through the formalities for enlisting in the army."

Bing Cao led the three of them into a stone house that looked like a courtyard.Inside, three or four were busy copying and writing on a desk full of books.Bing Cao had a headache looking at the large number of accounts.There is a shortage of clerical staff recently.It has not been possible to recruit staff who are good at arithmetic and competent as accountants.This is not.The room of the Military Registration Office is full of bibliographies waiting to be sorted out.

"This is the household registration of the three of you sent by Zhang Lushi. It seems that he is quite worried about the three of you who are relatives far away." Bing Cao sighed.He motioned for a civil servant in the accounting office to bring in a thick roster of military rosters.

"Guo Nuan. Age 22. Cheng Ding. No criminal record. Lives in Dingmen Jingyuan, Xi'an, Chang'an City. Registered in Chang'an. Family composition. Parents are traders. There are two brothers and two sisters in the family. Both are married..." Bing Cao sat at the desk and muttered.These few words almost choked Guo Nuan and the others to death.

Grandma's.Our old man changed my household registration really thoroughly.All of a sudden, the relationship with the Guo family of the Fenyang Prince's Mansion was completely wiped out.

Guo Nuan was completely speechless.It seems that old man Guo is really planning to let his sixth son start as a soldier.Without a shred of familial help.Completely let go.

"There may be mistakes."

Bing Cao chanted words according to Guo Nuan's household registration file.He then raised his eyes to look at Guo Nuan and asked.

Guo Nuan and Da Biao Ah Fu looked at each other and smiled.He nodded again and again and said, "Hehe. Nope. It's absolutely correct."

"Zhang Dabiao is Zhang Lushi's cousin. En. Liu Fu'an is the younger brother of Guo Nuan's mother-in-law's second brother-in-law. En. Guo Nuan's eldest brother-in-law's nephew is Zhang Lushi's in-laws. Oh. My head is almost confused. This relationship is enough for distant relatives."

Bing Cao then reviewed the household registration files of Ah Fu and Da Biao in detail.There are words in the mouth.This content made Ah Fu and Da Biao almost faint.As for Guo Nuan, she couldn't help snickering.

"En. Zhang Dabiao, Liu Fu'an, and Guo Nuan are all naturalized civilians of Chang'an Jingzhao Mansion. That's it. The family background is legal. I'll take you to the selection test now."

Afu was taken aback.He asked nervously, "What selection? Is there still selection?"

It is said that he followed the emperor's personal edict to appoint the young master's clothes as an errand at the border.Now the young master is gone.Even being a soldier has to be picked and picked.I really feel wronged for my young master.

"It's nothing. It's just to test your strength. Endurance or something."

Bing Cao cast a disapproving glance at this white and clean young man: "Liu Fu'an, you thought it was so easy to be a soldier. By the way. Are you five feet eight inches tall?"

"Um. It's still an inch and a half away." Ah Fu said weakly: "I'm still a child. It's time to grow my body."

"Oh. Except that you are not over 20 years old. I don't think you are tall enough to be recruited." Bing Cao nodded in agreement.
