Chapter 530: The Battle in the Army
set up a few forbidden formations in the mansion to ensure that no one below the division realm could trespass, and put the books collected along the way into a side room, and instructed Liu Heng to study well at home, Liu Heng and He Bo left the mansion and went towards the barracks.
The military camp was located in the north of the city, which was originally set up to prevent the Beihu Pass, but now it has become a forward position for the counterattack on Beihu.
As Lu Youqi said, not only is there a lot of troops and horses in Daxia, but the border passes bordering Beihu are also frantically expanding their troops. In the past, there were 2,000 garrisons stationed in this Mochizuki City, but now it has expanded to 5,000 soldiers and horses in one go, forming a guard of its own, and just waiting for the military order, it will follow the guards of other border cities to step into the territory of Beihu.
Just looking at the posture of this army expansion, Liu Heng can imagine the magnificent scene of thousands of troops trampling the earth in the near future, and that kind of picture, even if it is imagined, will have the power to shock people's hearts.
Approaching the barracks, ordinary pedestrians can also feel the masculine heat coming from there, dispelling the last chill of early spring. If you get closer, even the leather jacket on your body has to be taken off, and the heat rushes like a huge wave, and then you listen to that powerful shout, people's hearts will be restless.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
Before the two of them approached the barracks, the sergeant in front of the door had already shot at him and asked loudly.
Liu Heng hugged his fists, "We are here to enlist in the army." β
When a sergeant heard this, he sneered, "Don't look at when this is, the army is about to go out, how can you still be allowed to mix up the military merits? Don't be delusional, just go back as you came!"
Liu Heng's face was slightly gloomy when he heard this, and a sergeant coughed, his tone was quite polite, "Didn't you two hear the military order, the quota in the army is full, and you are indeed late." β
Listening to this person's words, Liu Heng's expression eased up, "We are here at the behest of someone, please let me know." β
"But what proof?" the sergeant asked in a silent voice.
"There's a note. β
Liu Heng took the note in his hand and asked him to look at it, and when he read it, his expression was a panny, "Wait a minute, you two, I'll go to the military official." β
He whispered a few words to the other sergeants and left in a hurry, and the eyes of the remaining sergeants looking at Liu Heng and the two changed slightly, and when they spoke again, they suddenly became much more polite.
"The two of you came alone, so that we could not imagine that you still have this relationship. A sergeant sneered, "Forgive me for the offense." β
"It's okay, those who don't know are not to blame. Liu Heng also said politely.
"If only you had taken it out earlier, lest there be any misunderstanding. There was also a sergeant who grinned and said: "But we will be comrades in the future, life and death together, how can we still take a little misunderstanding to heart, right?"
Liu Heng smiled: "That's the truth. β
The skirmish was gone, and by the time the departing sergeant arrived with a man in uniform, the two sides had already become very harmonious.
The sergeant introduced: "This is Lord Li Zhili under the command of the right army envoy. β
Liu Heng and He Bo immediately followed the same group of sergeants to clasp their fists and salute, "I've seen Master Li." β
"Is that you?" This person was wearing a military official uniform, looking very majestic, and nodded slightly after sweeping Liu Heng and the others, "Come with me to fill in the name." β
Hurriedly saying goodbye to this group of garrison sergeants, the two followed this Master Li into the barracks, only to hear him say: "Since you are taking the path of Lord Cheng Weihua, there must be some origins. However, you have to remember that in this army, you are not as good as outside, you don't ask people for orders, if you think that you can do anything wrong by virtue of your identity, you don't listen to orders, and you should be careful about military regulations. When the time comes, you can do whatever you should do about the crime, no one else cares who you are, you will kill if you say kill, and there is no place to reason with you. I have to keep this in mind, otherwise it will be too late to regret it when my life is gone. β
"Yes. Liu Heng and He Bo hugged their fists and promised, "Thank you for reminding me." β
Perhaps this voice made Li Zhi's heart feel comfortable when he heard this, his face was relaxed, and he talked more, "Also, after the expansion of the army, there will be some confusion in the army, I advise you to be cautious in your words and deeds, and try not to offend people." But if there is a dispute, don't be soft, and this is a little advice from me. β
Liu Heng narrowed his eyes, "Dare to ask adults, I don't know to what extent is it called no softness?"
Li Zhi looked back at him in surprise, Xu was aware of Liu Heng's inadvertent resoluteness, and showed a look of understanding, "Estimate it yourself, but as long as it is not killed or scrapped, it is not a big deal." β
"I see. Liu Heng nodded, and then quietly stuffed a few silver tickets, "Please take care of the adults in the future." β
"What are you doing here?"
Having said that, Li Zhi pretended to shirk a few times, and then accepted it helplessly, "I didn't expect you to be so polite, it's really embarrassing...... Well, I can't help much anyway, as long as you don't overdo it, just let me know. β
"We are all people who know how to do evil, and we will never embarrass adults. Liu Heng was full of smiles, "We have just arrived, and the rules in the army are not very clear, so please give us more advice." β
Li Zhi walked all the way, pondering and said: "The army is indeed a little different from the outside, but it is also easy to say. When the military regulations are issued, you have to keep in mind that this is the first rule, and you can do whatever you want, that is, you can't be cowardly, and you can't hesitate to be soft when it's time to make a move. Third, there is one thing now, and it depends on whether you have the ability to do it yourself. β
He glanced at Liu Heng and the others a few times, and said in a deep voice: "Now that the army is expanding, the men and horses are strong, but the original weaving has all been scattered, and our grain and grass civil officials are busy here. However, there were nearly 3,000 new recruits, and they didn't have time to find out their details and abilities, so they simply came up with an idea and asked you to select military attachΓ©s at all levels by yourself. β
When Liu Heng heard this, his eyes flashed, and he just wanted to ask something, but he heard Li Zhi sigh, "I see that you also have martial arts, but it's a pity that you came too late, and now the battalions have already finished tossing, I'm afraid there is no place left." β
"Dare to ask my lord, what kind of selection method is this self-selection?" asked Liu Heng.
"There will be any other way, each has its own way of playing, but most of them are more forceful, and the winner is the leader. Li Zhi said angrily.
Liu Heng nodded, and after thinking for a while, he asked: "Each battalion has set a military attachΓ©, and you have to be canonized by all the adults to be justified, right?"
"This is not already, but the battalions have already reported it, and it won't take much time to get to us, at most today and tomorrow, the canonized military order should be issued. Li Zhi responded, and then was stunned, "You don't want to ...... it."
Liu Heng said with a smile: "Since it hasn't really been decided yet, I still want to fight." β
Li Zhi opened his mouth, finally glanced at the two of them deeply, shook his head and said nothing. When he filled in the two big names of "Jin Lai" and "He Sheng" on the army roster, he ordered his subordinates to equip them with weapons, and then said: "Arrange you in the Hundred Feathers Regiment of the Eagle Claw Battalion, and this is all I can do for you, and the result depends on your own ability." β
"Thank you, sir. Liu Heng thanked them again and again, and then Li Zhi led them to the other end of the barracks.
"There are a lot of thorns in this group, even if the winners and losers are separated, just because of the difference in mutual strength, they are not very convinced by Zhao Wuming, the newly elected head of the regiment. Li Zhi secretly said: "But in our opinion, Zhao Wuming still has some means, you should pay more attention when you fight with him, if your strength is not good, it is better to take refuge in him." With your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to take the position of two captains from him. β
After hearing it, Liu Heng couldn't help but feel that the 50,000 taels of silver tickets were too worthwhile.
The military system of Great Xia is that ten people are a team, ten teams of 100 people are a regiment, ten regiments and 1,000 people are a battalion, and five battalions or ten battalions are a guard. There is often no definite number of men and horses under the command of an army, maybe two guards and three guards, and it is not uncommon for five guards and ten guards to be at most.
To the head of the regiment, the hundred people under his command, who can be called the military attache from the ninth grade, have entered the official position. Further up, the battalion commander is an eighth-rank military attachΓ©, the guard lieutenant is a seventh-rank military attachΓ©, and the general is from the sixth-rank upwards, with any grade.
Liu Heng originally thought that they would have to start with the soldiers as soon as they came in, but he didn't expect to encounter such an opportunity as soon as they came, which shows that his 50,000 taels of silver are really worth it.
Not to mention anything else, just talking about the value of a regiment commander from the rank of military attache of the ninth grade, it is far from being comparable to these 50,000 taels.
What's more, this is not a one-off deal, the news revealed by Li Zhi can be described as heart-wrenching, and it is estimated that others will have to remember him a favor.
"The kindness of my lord, we will keep it in mind. While talking, Liu Heng quietly stuffed five 10,000 taels of silver tickets, and Li Zhi was not allowed to shirk at all, and pressed them directly into his arms.
"You guys......" Li Zhi couldn't help but shake his head again and again, as if he was very embarrassed, "I can help everything I can, and I can't help anything else, I can only say that I wish you all the best." β
"I promise you. β
Sent the two straight into the regimental camp, facing a group of military men, Li Zhi introduced the two of them very much, and pulled one of the big men led by them to the front and gave a few words, and then left. His introduction made the clear-thinking people in the military understand that these two people still rely on Li Zhi's relationship, and whoever wants to move these two people has to give Li Zhi some face.
As soon as he left, countless eyes fell on the two of them, and the intention was difficult to understand.
The big man who was the leader rubbed his beard and said to them: "The only ones left in the regiment who are short of people are the Qingyu team and the Red Feather team. β
Liu Heng swept around everyone, and his eyes finally fell on the big man headed by him, "Presumably you are Zhao Wuming, the current head of the Hundred Feathers Regiment, right?"
"Presumptuous!"
"New here, do you still know some rules?"
"Why don't you call an adult?"
"Admit your mistake quickly!"
He asked a word, but the bearded man didn't respond, and many military men around him changed color and scolded angrily.
The bearded man also had a slightly gloomy face, and his iron-like palms pressed to the left and right, so that everyone was silent, and only then did he stare at Liu Heng and said in a deep voice: "It's me." β
"It's you. Liu Heng nodded and said abruptly: "Give up the position of head of the regiment." β
As soon as these words came out, the camp suddenly became quiet, as if even the sound of everyone's breathing had stopped, and then there was a loud laugh.
"Oh, it's not going to be done, it's going to laugh at me. Many soldiers laughed and rolled on the ground with their stomachs, "Where did this come from, I don't have much ability, and my guts are fat enough!"
"What did I hear?"
"Zhao Dabeard, did you hear it, why don't you hurry up and give the position of head of the regiment with both hands?"
"Come up and point to the position of the head of the regiment, Boss Zhao, people don't take you seriously at all?"
"Who's going to help me?"
"Mao Du has not yet grown up in a stunned green, he dares to covet the position of the head of the regiment, let's not say whether we are convinced or not, at least you have to ask Boss Zhao, right?"
There are also many people who can't cry and laugh like Zhao Wuming, and it was not easy to stop laughing, "Okay, I read that you are new to the city, and for the sake of Lord Li's face, I won't bother with you, apologize to me, and take ten more beatings of military sticks as a lesson." β
"Order!"
Naturally, someone agreed, grabbed the military stick and walked towards Liu Heng with a cruel smile, who knew that Liu Heng just glanced at him lightly, and made him tremble all over his body and freeze in place.
Seeing this scene, there was silence all around, but the atmosphere was completely different from before.
A glance is terrifying, what this means, many military men know it.
At least a strong man who has condensed his will!
And if you want to condense your will, it means that the seemingly ordinary young man in front of you is actually a peak martial artist, and this kind of strength should not be underestimated even in the army where strong people gather today.
In terms of strength on the bright side, it can already be ranked in the top ten in the Hundred Feathers Regiment!
In other words, he wants Zhao Wuming to give up the position of head of the regiment, not joking, but for real!
Countless people's pupils shrank sharply, and Zhao Wuming also narrowed his eyes, his gaze suddenly became sharp, and he forced to look at Liu Heng, "I didn't expect it, but I looked away, it's really unseemly." β
"Thanks for the compliment. Liu Heng hugged his fists, but his tone was not polite, "In that case, can Brother Zhao give up the position of head of the regiment?"
Zhao Wuming said coldly: "It's nothing more than a peak martial artist, it's too early to say that you want me to give way." β
As he spoke, he no longer concealed his aura, and his astonishing qi and blood rushed straight to the sky, and a phantom gradually appeared outside his body, "However, with your strength, it is enough to compete for the ranking of the top ten captains." When you get the captain's position, if you're still not convinced, come to me again. β
Liu Heng thought about it when he heard this, and actually nodded: "It's okay, I don't know which captain wants to teach?"
A few people in the group of soldiers looked at each other, and after their eyes met, one of them finally walked in front of Liu Heng, "Since it should be a newcomer to the Red Feather Team or the Green Feather Team, Zhou Kang, don't fight with me, let me try this kid's catties." β
This person is nearly a foot tall, majestic as a mountain, standing in front of Liu Heng, as if he can completely shroud Liu Heng in his shadow. He touched the big fist of the casserole, making a palpitating dull sound, and grinned: "Remember it for me, boy, Lao Tzu's name is Hu Hu, and he is your future captain!"
Before the words fell, his fist suddenly fell on Liu Heng's head, as if it was bursting with a blow!
That fist was bigger than Liu Heng's head, and seeing this fist go down, Liu Heng's head was afraid that it would explode, and everyone showed a look that couldn't bear to look at it. (To be continued.) )
