"Riding in the autumn mountains, a maroon horse galloped wantonly. The man on the horse was majestic and majestic, waving the whip in mid-air, as if reluctant to fall. The horse and its owner As if they were sympathetic to each other, I could feel the master's pity, and they ran even faster like thunder. Not far away, several people dressed as sergeants were talking to each other, and their words were full of compliments and admiration for the man on the horse. The man was riding After the horse ran around in the plains, it came to a stop in front of a few people. The middle-aged man at the head stepped forward to hold the horse's reins and said with a smile:
"How about this? Does this horse suit Fengxian's wishes?" The tall Lu Bu turned over and dismounted without any clumsiness, and laughed loudly:
"It is indeed a good horse..." After looking at the middle-aged man, he stopped smiling and said with a frown:
"That's right, I may not be destined for this horse." The middle-aged man's expression changed, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and then he said as usual:
"My dear brother, my dear brother, this red rabbit horse and you are just like a BMW and a hero. How can we say that there is no fate? If you don't dislike it, this red rabbit horse will be your mount from now on. Lu Bu raised his thick eyebrows, He reached out and stroked the mane on the horse's neck, as if he couldn't put it down. Seeing this, the middle-aged man stepped forward and said:
"My virtuous brother has the talent to lift up the sky and sail the sea. Who doesn't admire him in the whole world? Just as it is said in the "Dragon and Tiger List of the Great Han Dynasty", my valor is recognized by the world as the number one among the Han Dynasties. If I get fame, Wealth is not as good as digging into a bag to get something!" Lu Bu's slightly raised corners of his mouth seemed to be of great use. He had also read the "Dragon and Tiger List of the Great Han Dynasty" and must review it every day before going to bed. The middle-aged man has been observing the changes in Lu Bu's expression. Seeing this, he took a step forward, stared at Lu Bu and said:
"Wonderful brother, don't you hear that good birds choose trees to live in, and good ministers choose their masters to live in?" Lu Bu's eyes flashed with emotion. He looked around and saw no outsiders, then he sighed quietly. He chuckled and said again:
"There are many heroes in the world today, just like the heroes on the "Dragon and Tiger List of the Great Han Dynasty". Which one is not like this? Let's talk about Xu Huang and Xu Gongming. This person was just a minor official in the county before. If How could he be as famous as he is today if he had not chosen a virtuous master?" Lu Bu nodded in agreement. Xu Huang's deeds had already spread to Luoyang, and his ability to defeat a thousand with one horse was even more desirable. The middle-aged man twisted his beard and said :
"It's a pity. Brother Fool has always felt unworthy of his virtuous brother. How can a virtuous brother pursue Ding Jianyang and make great achievements." Lu Bu looked up at him with a tangled expression, as if he wanted to say something, but when he thought of Xu Huang's great achievements, he felt sour in his heart. How can it be justified that a top player is not as good-looking as a top ten player in terms of record.
After sighing, Lu Bu said bluntly:
"Alas, it's so rare to meet a bright master." The middle-aged man's expression changed and he said hurriedly:
“Brother Fool is here just for the future of Brother Xian.
"Oh?!" Lu Bu's eyes lit up, he grabbed the middle-aged man's arm and asked:
"Brother, look at the world today, who can be called the world's hero?
"Hahaha..." The middle-aged man twisted his beard and laughed, looking at Lu Bu's men next to him. When Lu Bu saw this, he hurriedly backed away.
"Brother, it doesn't matter." The middle-aged man watched the people retreat and twisted his beard and said:
"A certain person looked around the world and looked at all the ministers, and thought that none of them were as good as Lu Bu. He said excitedly:
"Who?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and said in a sonorous tone:
"Dong Zhuo!"
"Ah?" Lu Bu was shocked. Yesterday, he beat Dong Zhuo and fled into the city in despair. But today, someone said that he was the hero. How could Lu Bu be happy?
When the middle-aged man saw this, he burst into laughter.
"Brother, a hero like you will change his face when hearing Dong Zhuo's name. Dong Zhuo is a true hero! Hahaha. Lu Bu smiled instead of being angry.
"Brother is really good at joking, how could he call this thief a hero? Dong Zhuo is domineering and has a rebellious heart. Everyone in the civil and military dynasties knows this, but you actually
"Good brother." The middle-aged man explained:
"You only know the appearance, but don't know the inside. You only know one but don't know the other."
"Oh?" Seeing Lu Bu's confused look, the middle-aged man pulled him aside and tried to persuade him.
"conscription?'
"Yes, I heard that five thousand people are needed. However, it seems that there will be some assessment. I don't know if it is strict or not."
"What are the main assessments? You are a scholar. Tell us quickly. We are all illiterate." In Anyi County, a group of people gathered outside the health center. A young man dressed as a scribe was standing at the door explaining the notice. Content.
"To put it simply, you are hired to go into battle to kill the enemy. The minimum salary is one dou of food per month. When you arrive on the battlefield, you will be rewarded with one dou of food for killing one person, two dou of food for killing two people, and so on, but you cannot take credit for killing good people. , otherwise not only will there be no reward, but the head will be beheaded. There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and a dark-skinned man asked:
"Then what does the second article mean?" The young scribe took a look and said:
"The second item is the selection criteria. As mentioned above, those who are between sixteen and thirty years old will not be accepted. Those who are over thirty will not be accepted, and those who are younger than sixteen will not be accepted.'
"Ah!" Many people sighed. They just missed out on a salary of one dou of grain a month. They did not dislike conscription, but they yearned for it. After all, they could make achievements on the battlefield and earn food. This is different from It was different in the past when the imperial court forced conscription. Not only did the imperial court's conscripts earn no food, but they also had to pay a lot of subsidies. Only when they died would they get a small amount of pension. That little money was not enough to support the family for ten days and a half.
"By the way, does it say how much the pension is?" The young scribe nodded, pointed to Article 6, and said:
"If someone unfortunately dies on the battlefield, the Wei family will deliver a bucket of food to their families every month. If there are young children at home, they can also go to school for free. This will not stop until the children grow up and are able to take care of themselves. The pension is distributed, and it is also mentioned above that the child can work directly in the Wei family in the future, and the treatment will be favorable."
"I can do something for Wei!'
"That's a good thing.'
“Er Gouzi, let’s sign up, we’ll get a bucket of food every month.
"I think you want to die. Who doesn't know that you have three and a half sons to support at home, and I don't have any sons, so I won't go." The young scribe standing on the steps looked at Er Gouzi who was talking, and smiled. He said:
"If you can kill the enemy and perform meritorious service on the battlefield, you can directly join the city guard or the city guard after returning in triumph. You should all know the treatment. Ergouzi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly bowed to the young scribe and said excitedly:
"Is this true?" The young scribe laughed and looked at the notice on the side, pointed to Article 8, and said:
"It is clearly written on it. If you can kill five thieves, you can apply to join the City Guard. If you kill ten, you can directly join the City Guard. If there are more than ten, you will be directly awarded the rank of instructor, and there is also a three-level advancement. A house, a hundred stones of food, and a fine horse
"Oh my God, I'm giving you a house!" the young scribe nodded and said:
"Not only that, if one of you can kill the thieves to the point of being frightened like Coach Xu, you can also get the legendary Earth Demon weapon."
"Wow, I can get the Pangu Ax!
"The dragon-slaying knife is so powerful!'
"You guys know nothing. Coach Zhang's eight-foot-long snake spear is a powerful weapon for killing enemies." In the crowd, two men with thick eyebrows and big eyes looked at each other.
"Brother Wen Chou, there is also a recruitment here, and the pay is good. Should we go to General Yuan?" Another man scratched his unruly hair and frowned:
"I don't know either. The two of them looked at each other and saw a trace of hesitation in each other's eyes. At this moment, Zhang Fei led a small team out of the guardhouse and saw so many people gathered at the door. He was curious The young scribe asked:
"Has anyone signed up yet? I have prepared all the test props. The young scribe hurriedly bowed and said:
"This notice has just been posted. If you want people to sign up, you have to explain it carefully. Zhang Fei raised his thick eyebrows, looked at the people watching, and shouted loudly:
"If you are a man, don't be so nagging. Hurry up and get a few people to follow me in for the assessment. Why are you still hesitating about such a good condition?" Many people in the crowd were Zhang Fei's supporters. After hearing this, they were all eager to try, but But no one was the first to come forward. Zhang Fei raised his thick eyebrows, pointed at the two strongest-looking men in the crowd, and said:
"Hey, you two, do you want to sign up? Yan Liangwen Chou, who was standing in the crowd, was stunned for a moment. Facing Zhang Fei's gaze, he was in a dilemma. Someone next to him said:
"Hey, these two strong men are in good shape. Go ahead, go ahead and help us explore the way."
"Yes, these two warriors are brave enough to look at. Their stature is not inferior to that of Coach Zhang. Let's go help you explore the way." Zhang Fei is in charge of the assessment today and has been waiting in the guardhouse for a long time. He got impatient and saw the two people coercing around and said angrily:
"That's bullshit. You're trying to compare yourself to me. I think they can't even pass the first level. They have nothing but flesh." With that said, Zhang Fei casually pointed at the crowd, who happened to be the Ergouzi from before, and said:
"What about you, do you dare to go in for the assessment? Ergouzi has admired Zhang Fei for a long time. Now that he was called by his idol, he didn't care so much. He ran forward and said:
"Why don't you dare? Even though I Ergouzi is not tall, I am quite strong." When Zhang Fei saw someone catering to him, he suddenly smiled and pulled Ergouzi to praise him. The relationship with Ergouzi 'Brave' Compared to the hesitant Yan Liangwen Chou in the crowd, he suddenly became a negative example. Even the people standing next to him began to criticize them. Maybe they were pointed out by others, or they were determined to prove themselves. , Yan Liang pulled away the crowd, stood directly in front of Zhang Fei, and said loudly:
"Report, just report. I, Yanliang, am from Anping County. If you have any assessments, just come, hum!" Brother Wen Chou came forward and stopped being coy. He also opened up the crowd.
"I, Wen Chou, also signed up." Zhang Fei laughed and praised his wit. This inspired him to learn and apply the method. Unexpectedly, he actually caught two good big fish.
Someone signed up, and then more than a dozen people came to the young scribes to register.
After Zhang Fei saw twenty people, he led them directly into the guardhouse. Registration is only the first step. Next, these twenty people will have to pass a series of assessments. Only after passing the subsequent assessments can they officially join the expeditionary force formed by the Wei family.
"Okay, who of you comes first?" Everyone came to the backyard of the guardhouse, and Zhang Fei laughed. They saw a bunch of strange facilities in the yard. Except for an archery target they knew, they had never seen any of the others. Zhang Fei was too lazy to bother and simply copied the obstacle course set up in Haojiacun and added an archery feature.
"Instructor Zhang, how is this test going?" Ergouzi looked confused. He was the first one to sign up, so he should be the first to take the test. Only then did Zhang Fei remember that he hadn't demonstrated yet.
Hearing this, he took off his coat, revealing the stab-proof clothing underneath, and said:
"I'm only going to run it once. Watch carefully. If you miss an item or dare to take a trick, the results of the assessment will be canceled directly." Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this. Zhang Fei trotted to the starting point, and after flexing his hands and feet, He sprinted out amidst the sound of the deputy's gong. The other deputy quickly opened the hourglass and started timing. At the same time, he explained:
“If the assessment is not completed before the sand in the hourglass falls, it will be considered a failure.
"Ah, we need to keep time." Ergouzi looked at Zhang Fei who easily climbed over several wooden walls, and considered the possibility of passing the test.
On the other hand, Yan Liang and Wen Chou looked at each other and smiled. They thought this test was quite simple and not as difficult as they imagined.
At this time, Zhang Fei ran to the last item, bow and arrow. Whoosh whoosh...the three arrows landed steadily on the bullseye.
The deputy turned off the hourglass, and half of the sand was left in the funnel. The two dogs looked at it and said, hey, there's a lot of sand.
Zhang Fei trotted back and said breathlessly:
"Okay, according to the order of registration, you come first. Ergouzi smiled and thought that he should be fine. Zhang Fei still had half of the sand left after running, so he would have at most a handful left. Mouth! Ergouzi was so full. Running wildly. Mouth! Ergouzi became tired and turned into a pug at the second wooden wall.
"After the sand fell, he failed the assessment and left quickly. Zhang Fei sighed helplessly. Although the young man actively participated, his strength was worrying. Ergouzi was carried out, and his breathing was as heavy as a bellows, which showed that he was indeed He tried his best. The second turn was Yan Liang. Zhang Fei glanced sideways at him, and Yan Liang snorted coldly. He rushed out amidst the sound of the gong. He easily climbed over the ground network, crossed the single-plank bridge, climbed over the wooden wall, and climbed up the sky rope. ...Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, the three arrows hit the bull's-eye steadily.
"Fuck!"
"Ge Lao Tzu's.'
"So strong?' Mouth!
"The assessment is over, it took...sixty breaths." The deputy weighed the sand and looked at Zhang Fei in disbelief. Zhang Fei was also dumbfounded. After the hourglass fell, it was one hundred and twenty breaths, sixty breaths. That's half, exactly the same speed as he just did. Looking at Yan Liang who was slightly panting, Zhang Fei suddenly felt that he had found a treasure. At this time, Wen Chou, who saw Yan Liang's good grades, looked eager to try and said:
"It's my turn, I don't even need these things for sixty breaths." Zhang Fei didn't dare to underestimate anyone this time, and said with a smile:
"Okay, if you can make it to sixty breaths, I'll treat you to wine and meat tonight." Wen Shanshan said happily and licked his lips.
"Okay, this is what you said.".
