"Boy, what happened? Why are you so excited so early in the morning?"
There was no wind or snow last night, and Tai'an City was extremely quiet. After a good night's sleep, Fang Fang walked out of the room wrapped in his nightgown and couldn't help but feel lazy under the warm sunshine.
Comfortable!
Good weather is rare in this early winter.
"Sir, Long Wuwei has issued a summons!" Li Yannian, who looked happy, took the token and documents and respectfully walked to Fang Fang.
"The summons, is it for me?"
Fang Fang took the thing with a confused look on his face.
Fang Fang took the initiative to learn about the military system of the Wu Dynasty, and later learned more about it while chatting with the two brothers.
Summoning orders are a kind of military orders, and the targets of recruitment are government soldiers.
As an important supplement to the military strength of the Wu Dynasty, the government soldiers were trained by their families and clans. They were reviewed every three years. After the review, the land tax and head tax paid for three years would be repaid. At the same time, they could continue to rent military land, even during wartime. There is a risk of being deployed to the battlefield, but there will be a lot of rewards afterwards. But for the people at the bottom, it is the best choice for a man in the family to become a soldier.
"This order should be related to the fact that Mr. was awarded the title of Hundred Households of School Lieutenants. According to the regulations, every soldier in the Wu Dynasty should be recorded in the military and horse room. After entering the military station after the winter break, he has the right to recruit through the roster to prepare for the winter. "Beast disaster, although this is the first time Mr.'s name has been entered, it must have been written in a conspicuous position. This opportunity was only given by someone else!" Li Yanting analyzed with a happy face, "Otherwise, you would have to queue for a long time!"
The Wu Dynasty was in financial difficulties and had not launched a war for forty years. This was simply torture for the warriors who advocated force and had difficulty venting their energy. It also greatly affected the continuation of the military merit system.
In this environment...
The beast disaster that occurs every winter has become an opportunity for martial arts disciples from all over the country to show off their strength, and everyone has to grab the spot!
Previously, their brothers served in the military camp and had to protect the imperial city in winter, so it was not their turn to take the lead.
Now that I have followed Fangfang, I thought I would miss it this year, but I came without even thinking about it!
"good chance?"
Seeing the Li brothers in an excited state, Fang Fang commanded to open it with a serious look on his face.
He just wanted to stay there. No matter how beautiful the scenery outside the city was, it was impossible to see it whenever he wanted, so why bother to participate in such a thankless activity?
Compared with the explanation given by the Li brothers, after reading the equations in the official document, I feel more and more that someone is messing with him!
He is a newcomer, even if he is added to the roster, he does not know his roots, and even if he is a captain of hundreds of families in the Office of Documents, why was he recruited that year?
There is also the Longwu Guard at the foot of the Taihang Mountains and the farmland. They are the front line facing the winter beast disaster, a nightmare for ordinary soldiers, and a paradise for the martial arts disciples.
Where have you gone? Not to mention how to complete the task, there are a lot of troubles just talking about it.
But after thinking about it, there seems to be no reason to refuse the equation.
"gentlemen!"
Sensing the wrong look on the equation, Li Yanting said, "The summons is mandatory for the soldiers, but it has no effect on you. If you don't want to refuse, just refuse!"
Preparing for animal disasters in winter is a real chore, and many have refused over the years.
Fang Fang is weak, and unlike them, the descendants of martial arts who have been beaten since childhood, it is normal not to want to go.
"Go! Why not go?"
Fang Fang smiled and said, "Winter is not a bitter day. Isn't it just twenty years of work? It's time to go out for a walk!"
There is too little information to determine whether there is someone behind him, and his refusal will affect his reputation, but if he doesn't dig out the ghost, that will be trouble.
Equation doesn't like to be passive, but it also doesn't like to be calculated.
Besides, the summons has been clearly written. In addition to the Li brothers, there will be thirty people following, and most of the clues are among these thirty people.
"Since sir, you have decided to go, you have to prepare now. It's been half a month since the first snowfall, the food in the mountains will be exhausted, and the ferocious beasts will come out of the mountains. According to the practice of previous years, a group of thirty people will usually Arranged to be stationed next to Yehu!" Li Yannian reminded.
The Taihang Mountains stretch for tens of thousands of miles from north to south. The mountain range next to Tai'an City belongs to the northern branch, but it also covers a range of several hundred miles. There are countless wild beasts of all kinds. Hunting depends on luck, and hunting requires more strategy. The main force of the guard has blocked the way down the mountain. The recruited troops were formed into teams based on their respective cores, and then squatted on animal trails in the mountains, watersides, and lakes in a wait-and-see manner.
This is the most difficult day of the year, but after getting through it, regardless of whether there are any results, you can boast in Tai'an City for a year and attract the envious eyes of outsiders.
"You know, this is my first time to participate in this kind of thing, so I leave the preparation to you!" Fang Fang casually ordered.
"Then I'll go prepare first. If you have any questions, sir, just ask Yan Ting!"
The edict was issued and he chose to accept it. He would arrive at Longwuwei within three days at the latest and stationed in the mountain within five days. Fang Fang was not prepared before, and now everything has to start from scratch.
"Sir, there is actually no need to worry too much. Treating winter hunting as a recreational activity may be too much, but the size of thirty people, combined with the construction of the camp itself, is enough to ensure safety!"
Li Yanting didn't know what Fang Fang was worried about, but he still wanted to relieve Fang Fang's inner uneasiness.
"Is it that obvious?" Fang Fang pointed at his face and asked.
After laughing awkwardly, Li Yanting overheard, "This is the first time. Folks' descriptions of animal disasters in winter are too harsh. But in my opinion, it's just to scare children. I don't imagine how many years have passed since the founding of the Wu Dynasty. The Taihang Mountains It has been explored in the depths for a long time. As for the wild beasts in the mountains, they are hunted all year round. When there is nothing else in the spring and autumn, is there less large-scale hunting? "
"In my opinion, people exaggerate the dangers of winter, either because they have never participated in it, or because they want to show off themselves!"
"My second brother and I have participated in two rounds and followed the soldiers and horses camp for a while. You can't see animals for a hundred miles in the mountains. You can't see wild beasts for three hundred miles. Where Longwuwei is, it's just a branch. , it only spans more than 400 miles, and it has been cleaned up countless times!"
"Fine!"
Fang Fang frowned slightly, not to mention that reality might be just like what Li Yanting said, but no matter how safe hunting was, wouldn't he still have to go to the mountains to enjoy the breeze?
