394 Gifted

"Official, there are horses galloping in the north, and there are not many of them, and they are coming this way!"

Just as Hong Tao was sitting in the tent with a pen and sketching a draft map, imagining that in the near future, the Great Song General would be able to hold an accurate map to conquer the east and west, and would no longer be restricted by the terrain, a head with a few pigtails came in, and first wiped the snot on his lips with the palm of his hand before opening his mouth to speak.

"Fifty-six, where's your handkerchief!" Like the first group of children, all the children in the children's group have the surname Wang, and their first names are numerical numbers. They or each of them will have a leather collar around their necks, and a small bronze medal with their name on it.

However, this child does not need to check the identity tag, and the unique hairstyle is easy to recognize. His parents are said to be a branch of the Qiang people, and the ethnic group has long been divided, mixing with the Tubo people for a while, and the Dangxiang people for a while, anyway, whoever occupies the Hehuang area will run with whomever they want.

It wasn't until Hong Tao went to Huangzhou to subdue the Xiluosa ethnic group that they officially settled in Huangzhou. The husband's family specializes in herding horses for the state government, and the wife's family is the first batch to plant rice sacs and flowers, and the income is very good, so it should be regarded as the first batch of families to get rich through labor.

The family has spare money, Wang Fifty-six, his father's brain began to be active, he didn't want his son to continue to be a stableman when he grew up, but wanted him to read and write and become an official, not an official like the imperial examination, but an officer like Wang Da.

This is probably also the common idea of many Han people, who have little interest in civil servants, because there is no precedent for success, and it is difficult to fully integrate into Han culture.

But it is easier to be an officer, and in the era of war and chaos, they can still have force to protect their property, this is their real idea, martial arts!

But if you want to quickly enter the new army as an officer, there is only one way to go, that is, to go to the state school for selection, and after passing the assessment, you will enter the children's regiment of Lord Shuaisi, and then you will be privileged all the way, no matter where Lord Shuai Si goes, he will not abandon it.

As for the nature of the children's regiment, they don't care at all, in the eyes of most people, the children's regiment is the pro-army henchmen of Lord Shuaisi, and it is worth it to let the children suffer a little.

It's better to change the surname, so that a poor child can follow the surname of the horse, and he can be regarded as a member of the horse house, as long as the family is not a boy, he will not object.

Wang Wuliu didn't know a word before entering the state school assessment, he could only count to five, and then he was left handed, one right, one and two five, his parents were illiterate, and they only taught him how to herd horses since he was a child, as well as identify food, animals, and find water sources in the wild.

It can be said that when he was four or five years old, he was more than ten times stronger than Hong Tao's ability to survive in the wild, and if he was thrown into the mountains alone, in addition to being eaten by wild beasts, he could ensure that he would not die of hunger or thirst. Hong Tao wasn't too worried about the beasts, but if he didn't have a weapon, he would probably starve to death or die of thirst.

"I was blown away by a strong wind when I was riding on an ice boat...... Official, there are really horses running in the north, I heard it while I was sleeping! Wang Fifty-six was embarrassed to tug at the corners of his clothes, and his voice was quieter than a mosquito.

This kind of mistake cannot be tolerated in the children's group, and if you don't take good care of yourself, you will cause trouble for others, and no one will be happy to get along with a companion who causes trouble.

But he hadn't forgotten that he was lying on the felt just now and heard the sound from the ground, this thing was almost out of energy, since he was a child, he was lying on the ground and listening to the sound of his parents' hooves, judging how long it would take to eat, and he didn't degenerate when he grew up.

"Whistle the police!" Hong Tao knew Wang Fifty-Six's special function, and this thing needed talent support in addition to long-term training. He is not a Tibetan child, who has been led by his parents to herd horses since he was a child, but he has hardly seen anyone who can hear the sound of horses' hooves from a few miles away.

The reason why he dared to travel with a group of children and didn't need special forces to follow and protect him was because he knew that this area had been swept by Jiang Erlang and his life many times, but all the living people ran into the desert and didn't dare to stay by the river, where did the horses gallop?

The biggest possibility is that the wolves are chasing wild horses or wild asses and other animals, but since the wolf hunting order was issued, there are almost no foxes near Liangzhou.

With a shrill copper whistle, short figures soon emerged from the seven or eight small tents on the shore. Don't look at them all children, but the speed of putting on armor is not slower than that of the new army soldiers, and there is no panic, let alone crying or anything.

These faults have long been worn away in the daily training, and the temperament of ordinary people, such as timidity, cowardice, panic, and pity, is the easiest to attract punishment and hostility in the children's group, and whoever cannot change it will have an inexhaustible sin.

Through these children, it has also been proved that no one is born with a bad temper, does not like this, does not like which, and the stinky problems are all acquired.

"Your ears are really godly, the next time I go home and tell your father that the official left him fifty acres of good land in Liangzhou, all of which are earned by his son!"

Not only did they not panic, but the children, under the leadership of several seniors, quickly lurked on both sides of the riverbank, hid their bodies with snow and wild grass, and waited motionlessly for the next order.

Hong Tao was also lying in the snow, and at this time he could finally hear the faint sound of horses' hooves from the ground.

"My mother didn't let my father come to Liangzhou, she said that there were rebellious soldiers here...... Wang Wuliu grinned and his teeth had not yet grown, there were very few children in the children's regiment who could earn military merits, and this honor could make him brag for a long time. However, he also has worries, his mother is not worried about the future of Liangzhou, and he is unwilling to move his family.

"Well, your mother is not wrong, she is a good woman who can follow your father to Mawei City, and you are not allowed to complain about her when you go home. Listen again, how far is it? ”

Wang Wuliu's mother's worries are also the worries of most people in Huangzhou, even if the land near Mawei City has been divided, and even resold at a high price, there are still a few families who choose to move further north.

There is no other way to persuade this common idea, but it can only be changed slowly by time, and Hong Tao does not want to let the child complain about his parents after returning home, which will not help.

"Two miles north of the road, a total of more than a dozen, not the new army's military horses, there are no horsesshoes." Wang Fifty-six, who had been praised, was even more energetic, digging a pit in the snow with his small hands, almost burying his head in it, and listening to it with his left ear and listening with his right ear, he gave a more detailed answer.

"Order, shoot the horse first, try to catch it alive, but don't risk it!" It's not Liangzhou soldiers and horses, and it shouldn't be Qingtang soldiers, Tsering Gongduo is not so bold to enter the Liangzhou jurisdiction without asking for instructions. As long as it is not his own person, Hong Tao has no worries.

Will those people pass by the river? It's a matter of common sense. Riding a horse at a gallop in the dark of night, you must be able to identify the direction and road conditions, otherwise you will not have time to dodge when you encounter potholes or bushes, and you will directly hit it, and the horse will be injured at the least, and even the people will be killed.

Running along the river is the only way, the snowflakes on the river are the guiding light, and there are no trees on the bank, so it is much safer. As for why someone would run away like this in the big night, where did Hong Tao guess, he didn't have to bother to guess, just catch a few people and ask if it was clear.

It would be great if they kept their mouths shut and would rather die than give in, and Hong Tao could also give the children a vivid torture lesson, teaching them how to torture people.

Wang Fifty-six was right, there were indeed more than a dozen horses running at full speed, but not a group of people, but divided into two groups. There were only three people in front, and a hundred and ten meters away was the large force. No need to ask, the people behind are chasing the people in front, why? Still don't know.

Before they could count the numbers, the first three horses had already rushed forward, and with a few muffled bowstrings, two of them suddenly jumped up like madness, and threw off the people on horseback.

“%¥&&*!” The reason why the third horse was not shot down by the crossbow arrow was because the two horses in front of it blocked the arrow for it. However, the rider did not intend to cherish the opportunity to escape, and after rushing out, he reined in the reins of the horse, turned around and shouted, it was actually a woman!
