The ace special forces of the Sui Dynasty

Liu Ziqiu was taken aback: "Third brother, how did you make it like this?"

Hua Yun muttered, "Accidentally, I fell down."

Of course Liu Ziqiu didn't believe it, and looked at Yu Chigong with inquiring eyes.

Yu Chigong said seriously: "It is true that I fell, but I was tripped by someone with a long whip earlier."

Liu Ziqiu said angrily: "These monks are so rude, go find them!"

Hua Yun stopped him and said, "Forget it, second brother. The agreed time is coming soon, let's go down the mountain."

It is not Hua Yun's usual style to choose to retreat after suffering such a big loss.Liu Ziqiu couldn't help feeling suspicious, and asked, "Brother Yuchi, what's going on?"

Yu Chigong laughed and said: "It's nothing, Brother Hua stole a sheep."

"Nonsense, I picked up that sheep!"

It turned out that Hua Yun followed Yu Chigong to the Pagoda Forest behind the temple, saw a stray lamb on the way, and picked it up.Unexpectedly, the owner of the sheep came to find him, but Hua Yun refused to return the sheep to him.There was a dispute between the two sides. Hua Yun was holding the lamb and wanted to leave. When he was not paying attention, someone threw a long whip from behind and tripped him.

Liu Ziqiu frowned and said, "This shepherd has some tricks."

Hua Yun snorted coldly: "It's not that I can't beat her, I just don't want to argue with her."

Yuchi smiled and said: "It's fortunate that you didn't beat that girl, otherwise Master Tanzong would never forgive you."

Liu Ziqiu was surprised: "You are not talking about Master Tanzong's daughter, are you?"

Yu Chigong said seriously: "Second brother, don't talk nonsense! Master Tanzong has been a monk since he was a child, and his virtues are high. Where did he get a daughter? This girl is a girl from a tenant family in the temple. The people in the town know about the good relationship between them, and if there is a real fight, there will be no one inside or outside the temple to support us."

But Liu Ziqiu laughed and said, "That girl must be pretty, third brother, have you taken a fancy to her?"

Hua Yun was a little annoyed, and said: "I, I am a good man and don't fight with women, adults don't count villains!"

How could Liu Ziqiu believe it? He smiled and said, "Then why did you pick up other people's sheep and not return them?"

Hua Yun seemed aggrieved, and said: "It's not because you have a sad face when you eat every day, and you think the food in the camp is hard to swallow, so I want to pick up a sheep and go back to give you a tooth sacrifice."

Having said that, he made a grunt in his throat and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Yu Chigong laughed loudly and said, "Second brother, I never thought you would be so delicate."

"Am I so delicate?" Liu Ziqiu's face was full of black lines, he just felt that the food in the barracks was not nutritious.Of course, in this age when it is good to fill your belly, it is useless to talk to them about these principles. Liu Ziqiu could only cough twice and said, "Then just buy the sheep."

Hua Yun snorted and said, "I gave the money, but I don't want it."

"Okay, okay, this store doesn't sell it, let's buy it elsewhere." Liu Ziqiu shook his head and asked again, "Brother, can you show me Master Tanzong?"

Yu Chigong shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it won't work. As soon as he saw the third child, he drove him out of Tallinn and stated that he was not allowed to come back in the future. It is probably because you are soldiers who eat food and have too much murderous intent. Didn't the boy surnamed Gui say that Don't you dare believe in Buddha?"

Liu Ziqiu turned his head and asked Hua Yun again, "Have you ever killed someone?"

Hongren didn't allow him to enter the mountain gate just now, and now Tanzong doesn't allow him to enter the pagoda forest. Hua Yun didn't know why he offended these monks, so he had to say with a bitter face: "I only killed sheep."

"It must be because of that girl. I didn't expect Master Tanzong to be narrow-minded." Liu Ziqiu didn't believe it was because of the murderous intent. He had more lives on his hands. Didn't Daoxin invite him in?

Yu Chigong chuckled and said: "You can't say that. Master Tanzong saw that Hua Yun had a wound on his face, and he also sent a pack of Shaolin black ointment, which is a holy product for healing. I asked for it many times but failed. "

Since it was something that he couldn't figure out at the moment, Liu Ziqiu didn't want to use his brain too much, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go down the mountain and go buy sheep!"

Hua Yun asked in surprise, "Second brother, do you really want to buy sheep?"

"Yes, buy sheep, buy ten, oh no, buy twenty!"

Although Huayun's family is a military household, they don't need to pay grain and taxes, but they live a tight life. Hearing that Liu Ziqiu wanted to buy twenty sheep at once, he couldn't help being anxious, and said, "Second brother, we can't eat so many sheep." .”

Liu Ziqiu laughed and said, "Of course the few of us can't eat, but there are [-] people in the group, we can't just eat alone, right? It's almost Chinese New Year, so someone will pay for everyone to improve the food."

There is not much difference between the military camp and the outside, and there is no problem with inequality.If they were the only ones who could drink mutton soup and eat mutton legs, other people's meals would still be difficult to swallow. Even if he bought the rams himself, there would be an invisible gap between them and other soldiers.Liu Ziqiu placed great hopes in joining the army this time, and of course he didn't want to be isolated, so he simply acted as a favor.Of course, there are deeper thoughts, but Liu Ziqiu won't say them out.

After going down the mountain, Gui Haiqiu and the others were already waiting there.Ten taels of silver gave them a full meal, but they didn't dare to drink too much, for fear of missing the time agreed by Liu Ziqiu.

With the help of Yu Chigong, he quickly bought twenty fat sheep in the town.Here is close to Luoyang, and the prices are slightly higher than other places. Twenty fat sheep cost Liu Ziqiu five taels of gold.This time he joined the army, Gao Xiu'er prepared a lot of money for him, and for the convenience of carrying, he purposely replaced it with gold and silver.

Twenty fat sheep is a big deal for the sheep seller, so he took the initiative to help drive the sheep to the military camp.Liu Ziqiu also agreed with him to send another twenty sheep by this time tomorrow.

As soon as the twenty sheep were brought into the camp, it caused a sensation immediately.The imperial court has always rewarded the armed forces by killing sheep and cattle only after winning a battle or before a major battle.But at that time, many people may have no life to enjoy it.The big soldiers don't care about this, since someone is treating you, let's eat with your cheeks off.Most of the soldiers were straightforward, so naturally they had a good impression of Liu Ziqiu.

Soon someone reported the incident to Liu Yu, the brigade commander.Hearing that one of his subordinates actually invited guests to eat sheep, Liu Yu frowned, and ordered: "Go and find out who slaughtered the sheep without authorization, and bring him here!"

Chinese New Year is almost here, and many military officers whose families are in Luoyang and surrounding areas have gone home.Liu Yu's home is also in Luoyang, but he is worried and stays in the barracks.As the commander of the brigade, Liu Yu is the leader of this group, so naturally he cannot allow others to challenge his authority.In his eyes, such a move is clearly an invitation to buy people's hearts.

After a while, the soldiers came in and reported: "General, they have been brought here."

The brigade commander is just a low-level officer, not a general, and he is not qualified to be equipped with personal soldiers, but when there are no outsiders, his subordinates still like to call him a general.Although this soldier was Liu Yu's confidant, he was actually just an ordinary soldier in the regiment. When he came in, there were still oily spots on the corner of his mouth, obviously he had just eaten mutton.

Liu Yu was a little displeased, and said in a deep voice, "Bring it in!"

Liu Ziqiu strode into the tent, cupped his hands and said, "See the general for the bid!"

When Liu Yu saw it, she couldn't help being stunned.According to his order, at least this person who challenged his authority should be tied up, but Liu Ziqiu was relaxed. Another soldier he sent over helped carry a few wooden boxes, obviously because of other soft words.

The most important thing is that Liu Yu knew the person who caused the trouble, and he was the person Han Shi'er had told him to take special care of, which immediately put Liu Yu in a dilemma.In the hearts of the [-] people in the regiment, Liu Ziqiu is naturally a very good person. If he is not punished, his authority will be affected, and if he is punished, he will risk offending Han Shi'er.

Liu Ziqiu didn't seem to notice the change of expression on Liu Yu's face, and said with a smile: "General, the weather is getting colder, two lamb legs, a little mutton soup, to drive the general away from the cold."

The two soldiers in the tent were both Liu Yu's confidantes, looking at Liu Yu eagerly.Seeing the eyes of these two soldiers, Liu Yu knew that it was impossible to punish Liu Ziqiu, otherwise, before offending Han Shi'e, he would offend the entire regiment of soldiers first, and then he would not be able to carry out any of his orders.

Liu Yu waved his hand, drove the two soldiers out of the tent, let out a sigh of relief, and asked, "Liu Ziqiu, what exactly do you want to do?"

Liu Ziqiu said seriously: "Back to the general, I don't want to do anything under the bid, but the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I will get some meat for everyone and try something new."

Of course Liu Yu didn't believe that Liu Ziqiu had such good intentions, but obviously the whole group had already been bought by his few pieces of mutton, so he could only say: "For General Han's sake, I won't let you off lightly next time! You...keep the mutton for now. Come down!"

Liu Ziqiu held back his smile and bowed his hands to leave. He didn't pay much attention to a small brigade commander.But in this way, Liu Ziqiu became famous among the 200 members of the regiment, almost catching up with Liu Yu.

Liu Yu understood his situation very well, and in the early morning of the next day, like other officers, he left the soldiers and went back to Luoyang for the New Year.

As soon as the brigade commander left, the eight captains and deputy captains who lived in Luoyang also ran away, not forgetting to take some mutton from Liu Ziqiu.In this barracks, Liu Ziqiu became the master.Liu Ziqiu was also unambiguous, and immediately ordered the assembly to organize military training.There were 200 people in the regiment, excluding Liu Yu who was going home for the New Year and the eight captains and vice-captains, there were 190 people left, gathered in the open space outside the camp.

It was freezing cold, many people rubbed their hands, shrunk their necks, and their faces were full of reluctance.

Someone muttered in a low voice: "No one else is practicing, so let's gather together. He really thinks of himself as a character."

Gui Haiqiu has seen Liu Ziqiu's skills, and knows that there are people above him.More importantly, Liu Ziqiu is bold and generous, he has completely convinced him.Hearing someone's discussion, Gui Haiqiu couldn't help but said loudly: "What are you shouting about! What are you shouting about! Wuchang Liu just invited you to eat mutton, and you forgot?"

The veteran's words still had some effect, and last night they ate the mutton sent by Liu Ziqiu, most of them wisely chose to keep silent.

In fact, Gui Haiqiu didn't know why Liu Ziqiu assembled the team, Hua Yun also looked blank, and asked, "Second Brother, what are you going to do?"
