Chapter 813 Volunteering to join the army
It is said that Chen Long accidentally took in the disabled Hu Che'er by the waterside. The strong man fell into this situation for some reason. Chen Long did not hesitate to take him in as his sword-carrying boy. Hu Che'er was naturally grateful. Lu Chang was wary of Hu Che'er and couldn't help but monitor Hu Che'er's daily behavior. Chen Long just didn't know.
Hu Che'er can be regarded as rising to prominence if he follows the right master. As for his character, Chen Long believes that evil can never defeat good. Through his own education, his brute strength can be turned into the capital of chivalry and righteousness, and he will no longer be reduced to a A tool of oppression against good.
It was getting late that day, and he found out in Luoning City that the defense area of Yuan Shu's general Chen Lan was in front of him. Chen Long was concerned about the war in Luoyang and Zhou Buyi's safety, so he directly chose to walk at night. One master and two subordinates walked into the dark northeast of Luoning County. 's countryside.
The dirt road was crisscrossed with horseshoe pits and ruts, making it difficult to walk in the dark. However, the three of them had great skills and basically walked on flat ground. After walking not far along the dirt road, the sound of the river came to my ears, and I saw a few torches lit in the distance. As I approached, the silhouettes of several spears gradually appeared, and several soldiers stood crookedly on both sides of a wooden bridge. A simple wooden pole in the middle blocked the only road.
Lu Chang took the lead and walked over without hesitation. As expected, a shout came out: "Who is it? How dare you trespass on the road at night?"
The three of them stopped outside the crossbar, and two soldiers raised their spears forward, targeting Lu Chang's throat from a distance. After the soldier finished scolding him, he suddenly looked up and saw a big black man in front of him. A strange sword handle was exposed on his shoulder. His messy hair was flying in the night wind. He looked like a enchanted yaksha in the dark night. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He almost landed, but his tone became much more polite, and he stammered: "Folks, there is a war zone ahead. This road is blocked. Return quickly...".
Several soldiers gathered around and stared nervously at the strong Hu Che'er, fearing that he would explode on the spot. Unexpectedly, Hu Che'er's eyes were empty and his face was expressionless, as if he didn't see the existence in front of him at all. Lu Chang glanced at Hu Che'er, chuckled and said: "Brother Xiaobing, if there is nothing urgent at home, who would dare to walk at night? It’s convenient.”
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves sounded, but several military horses galloped towards them. When several soldiers saw this, they quickly put away their guns and saluted, saying: "Captain!" But it was their captain who happened to come to watch the night.
On top of the leading military horse, a strong soldier jumped down, with a sword across his waist. He was the captain of the night patrol. During the Three Kingdoms period, the military establishment was generally composed of six levels: bu, qu, tun, team, shi, and wu. Among them, Wu had jurisdiction over Wu people and had a corps commander; Shi had jurisdiction over two corps and had a commander; The Bo is also called the captain; the tun governs the second team, and there is a lightning general, also called the tun chief; the qu governs the fifth tun, and there is a qu chief; each department has two qu, and there is a thousand-man governor, also called the tooth general. As a captain, this person can control a hundred or ten people, which is quite powerful.
The captain dismounted and listened to the soldier's report, and said through the horizontal bar: "Don't be nagging. After crossing this bridge, it has been a war zone, and the villagers inside have moved away. Don't you know? I think you are quite pleasing to the eye, so hurry up and go back." Bar."
Lu Chang was about to say more, but Chen Long smiled and took Lu Chang's arm, walked forward and said: "This military master, actually three of our brothers ran away from home."
The captain was stunned and shouted: "What does it have to do with me if you run away from home?" A big hand had already grasped the handle of the knife. Seeing this, the soldiers around them grasped the barrel of the gun and became nervous.
Chen Long said calmly: "Little man Zhen Dong, these are my two younger brothers Zhen Huo and Zhen Shui. They are both boat runners and have practiced martial arts since childhood. The three of us brothers were in Luoning that day. We were lucky enough to see it with our own eyes. Generals Chen Lan and Lei Bo passed by. At that time, they were each riding a tall horse and leading a group of escort soldiers. They were really majestic and majestic. We yearned for Emperor Zhong's troops and wanted to serve. ." After Yuan Shu became emperor, he was named Zhongshi, so Chen Long called Yuan Shu Emperor Zhong.
Seeing Chen Long's tall appearance and cheerful face, the captain's hand holding the knife involuntarily relaxed. Chen Long continued: "At that time, our brothers regarded General Chen and General Lei as their idols and vowed to follow them. It's a pity that There is no way to enter. This evening, I suddenly heard that General Chen Lan was stationed here. My brothers discussed it and really didn't want to miss this opportunity again, so we decided to come and join the army at night."
When Lu Chang heard what his lord said from behind, he couldn't help but feel secretly shocked. Chen Long had not communicated with him beforehand. He must have had a plan to sneak into the enemy camp, or it was a temporary decision. Only Hu Che'er still looked like an idiot, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
When the captain heard that this was what he was thinking, he immediately put on his airs and shouted: "How can you, General Chen, meet us whenever you want? Country bumpkins don't know how high the sky is, so go home and farm as soon as possible."
Chen Long smiled and said: "Aren't you here, General? Although we can't see General Chen, if we can follow you to serve as soldiers and feed you, we are also willing to lead your horse and kick the pedals."
After a thousand attempts to flatter everyone, the captain's face softened slightly and he said proudly: "Want to be my soldier? My seventh team here is a well-known forward team. They rush to the front in battles, and they don't want just anyone. of."
Chen Long followed the flow of the words and said: "That's right, your soldiers are all elites at first glance, and they are all highly skilled in martial arts. However, our brothers are not in vain, each of them has some abilities."
The captain raised his head and glanced at the idiot Hu Che'er, suddenly nodded and said: "This brother of yours looks quite strong." After saying that, he rolled his eyes and said: "It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and run around. As long as you can defeat I will consider taking in these few soldiers under my command."
When Chen Long heard about the fight, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I have the general's order! So do you think it will be a one-on-one fight or a group fight? All the boys will accompany you. However, as the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. Before the competition, the general also asked the general to tell his name. My last name is so that we brothers can always remember it in our hearts."
The captain put on a bold attitude and grinned: "A man can change his name or surname whether he wants to or not. I tell you to remember it clearly. My surname is Li, my name is Qi, and my alias is Yuan Fang. I have created my own three-person fighting method, and I am the most invincible on the battlefield." ." It turned out that Li Qi saw that Hu Che'er was very strong, so he deliberately did not choose a one-on-one fight, but instead wanted to fight in groups of three on three, hoping to win with teamwork.
Chen Long heard that he understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Weapons have no eyesight, and it is easy to hurt the harmony. How about a test of fists and kicks? General Yuan Fang also asks General Yuan Fang to choose someone first!"
Li Qi's men booed for a while. The soldiers practiced martial arts formations hard every day and licked blood from the tips of their knives. How could they put a few civilians in their eyes and apply to fight on their own initiative? Li Qi did not dare to underestimate the three of them. He chose the two strongest men, plus himself, and stood outside the crossbar in a zigzag pattern. He ordered his men to light torches and form a circle to illuminate the bright field. .
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
