Chapter 113 Ningbo Mansion

From a distance, you can see the grand city gate, on which the word "Ningbo" is magnificent and correct.

Ji Fushou wore a bamboo hat, looked up at the city gate, and said calmly, "Let's take a stroll in Ningbo Mansion first, Sibo, you should go to the government army to report first."

Ji Sibo said hello, and led his servant Qingsong to take a step ahead.

Ji Fushou and his party disguised themselves as businessmen and walked slowly towards the gate of the city.

Entering the city gate, the hustle and bustle sounds filled the ears, Ji Fushou looked at the bustling and bustling scene, raised his eyebrows, "It's quite lively here."

It was a little different from what she imagined, she thought that Ningbo Mansion suffered from Japanese pirates, so it should be a bit desolate and desolate.

After walking around, the group stopped in front of a small house with three entrances.

Ji Fushou dismounted, followed her side, and introduced, "My lord, due to our haste, we can only buy this house. It's a bit shabby. I hope you will forgive me."

Since Ji Fushou decided to ask Ji Sibo to come to Ningbo Mansion two months ago, and decided to follow him, he ordered Ye Ying to buy a house in Ningbo Mansion.

Ji Fushou looked around for a week, and said gently, "It's a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle, and the street is right at the entrance of the alley, which is pretty good."

Pushing open the door and entering, Ji Fushou was welcomed into the front yard, and Chunyan followed him to the tea room, preparing to make a pot of tea for the girl to rest.

Ji Fushou put down his veiled hat, sat at the top, and looked at Su at the bottom left, "The children of the clan will be able to arrive at Ningbo Mansion in seven or eight days. Except for my yard, all other yards should be tidied up and the beds replaced. Chengdatongpu, each yard has a dozen or so people living in it.”

Ji Fushou wrote to the Great Elder and asked him to choose a hundred young and middle-aged men, and they had to be the ones who had learned the best boxing skills in this year.

The Great Elder knew that the children of the clan wanted to follow Sibo to exterminate Japanese pirates, make contributions, and revitalize the Ji family, so he attached great importance to this matter, and even asked people to have a competition before they were singled out.

The Great Elder was also afraid that the ignorance of the tribe would cause trouble for Ji Sibo, so he admonished the tribe very severely. When he went to Ningbo Mansion, he had to obey the patriarch in everything, and he could do whatever the patriarch told him to do. Go forward bravely, the Great Elder drank a pot of tea after finishing his speech.

Ji Fushou paused and asked again, "Is there a garden in this house?"

Seeing Su nodded, she said, "Push the garden and turn it into a martial arts arena. After they arrive, you will be responsible for training them."

Before facing the Japanese pirates, learning more things is the ability to save your life.

Chunyan served tea, Ji Fushou drank a cup, stood up, "Let's go, accompany me to see this house."

On the other side, Ji Sibo came to the government army station with his appointment.

There were two government soldiers guarding the door, and when they saw Ji Sibo, they scolded, "This is where the government troops are stationed, and the idlers leave quickly."

Ji Sibo took out the transfer order, "I am the new centurion dispatched by the Ministry of War, and I am here to report."

The two soldiers looked at each other, looked at the transfer order carefully, and looked Ji Sibo up and down, "Come in with me."

Taking him to the lobby, the Fubing said, "You sit here, and I will report to the Commander-in-Chief."

Ji Sibo waited for him to leave, and looked at him with his hands behind his back.

This lobby should be the usual reception hall, with the word "moderate" everywhere.

It wasn't until Ji Sibo was about to see a flower on the ground that footsteps sounded outside the door.

"I heard that our new centurion here is young and promising"

When Ji Sibo turned around, he saw a tall, square-faced middle-aged man walking in, followed by three men of similar age.

"Sure enough, the government soldiers are correct in their report. They will be a centurion at a young age. The future is bright!"

The middle-aged man was wearing a military uniform of a commander, with a gentle smile and a hearty atmosphere.

Ji Sibo hurriedly cupped his hands, "Ji Sibo has met Mr. Song."

Before coming, Li Ze also gave him some information about the army of the Ningbo Mansion. The commander is Song Xing. He has been in Ningbo Mansion for eight years and has deep roots in Ningbo Mansion. Li Ze asked him to deal with Song Xing after he came to Ningbo Mansion. , it is also convenient to do so.

Song Xing smiled even bigger, "So you are the champion of martial arts in Jinke? Good boy, why didn't you go to the Black Iron Army, Shenwei Army, and Longwu Army to come to our government army? The government army can't compare with these armies. If young people want to To make meritorious deeds, you still have to go to those armies."

The expression is sincere and the words are sincere.

However, Ji Sibo believed in the simple words and deep words. He believed in his aunt's judgment. If he couldn't make contributions here, it must be because he didn't work hard enough.

He pretended to be stupid and said in a daze: "This is a transfer order from the Ministry of War. I have waited for more than a month to get it, hey."

He shook his head and sighed, seemingly also very regretful.

Song Xing patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, since you're here, work hard. Come, let me introduce you to the other centurions in the army."

Song Xing pointed to a man with a big beard and said, "This is Cai Liang."

Ji Sibo cupped his hands and said, "I have met Centurion Cai."

Song Xing smiled again, "Don't be so cautious, you and I will be colleagues in the future, if you are young, just call them big brother."

Ji Sibo changed his words in a polite manner, "Brother Cai."

Cai Liangliang nodded.

Song Xing introduced another person, this person was short and fat, with a protruding belly, grinning all the time, looking very honest: "This is Niu Lezhi."

Ji Sibo smiled and called out, "Hello, Brother Niu."

Niu Lezhi laughed loudly, "My boy, I'll invite you to drink later."

Song Xing smiled and shook his head, "Brother Niu just likes this one."

Then he introduced the last remaining person to him. This person was burly and dark-skinned. Presumably he liked to smoke tobacco. When he grinned, he showed a row of yellow and black teeth, "This is Wei Hetai. .”

Ji Sibo: "I met Brother Wei."

Song Xing said softly: "Before, we were all planting crops in the field. As soon as we heard the report from the soldiers, we immediately rushed back."

This is the reason why he came to see Ji Sibo so late.

The government army is a hereditary system. When the father dies, his son inherits it. It also implements the policy of combining soldiers and farmers with both garrisons and guards. When there is a war, they take up arms and go to the battlefield. Usually, they are no different from ordinary farmers. They have their own fields, and when it comes to spring plowing, the government soldiers also have to go to the fields to sow seeds, and the grain will be distributed to each government soldier during the autumn harvest.

The government soldiers were only brought out after Li Tiancheng's three expeditions to Xiliang were defeated. Originally, they were preparing for the fourth expedition to Xiliang, so that the government soldiers from all over the country would gather to form an army. Unfortunately, there was no fourth Western Expedition after all, but The government soldiers have also been retained until today.

It's a pity that the government soldiers have never been on the battlefield, so other troops with military flags look down on them very much, thinking that they are moths, and don't even bother to deal with them.

That's why it's so surprising that Ji Sibo, a champion of military affairs, would come to the government army as a centurion.
