At one of the valley entrances leading to the grassland, two figures were running quickly one after the other.
The middle-aged man running in front looked back from time to time, while the young man behind him grinned at him.
"Uncle, do you think I can be assigned a small courtyard when I go back?" the young man asked loudly as he ran. The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, and responded affirmatively: "Yes, let alone a small courtyard, the young master can arrange all your wives and children for you, hahaha." The young man ran quickly. , he didn’t feel tired at all. When he heard that he was looking for a wife for himself, he was a little embarrassed to reply.
But the middle-aged man went on to say: "You have made a great contribution this time. Not to mention the yard and your wife, I guarantee that you will definitely be able to join the city guard. Even if you are in trouble, you will be able to join the city guard. From now on, you will be a person who eats public food." Come on." The young man quickened his pace a little, and was almost at the same level as the middle-aged man. He was probably half a step behind and did not dare to pass.
He said excitedly: "Uncle, you didn't lie to me, can I really join the City Guards?" The middle-aged man was actually not sure, but this time his nephew had indeed made a great contribution, so there should be no problem. That's right.
Since he joined the City Guards himself, several instructors, governors, and even the young master have given him the impression that merit will be rewarded and no debt will be owed. Moreover, the young master has always been particularly generous to the members of the City Guards. This is reflected in his daily life. You can see it in the basic necessities of life.
They eat meat every meal, wear stab-proof clothing that is invulnerable to bullets, live in a brick house with a single courtyard, and walk like a young horse.
Not to mention Hedong County, even if it was taken to Luoyang, such treatment was unprecedented. Because of this, the people in the city guard are willing to work hard for the young master... This time, the young nephew went with him as a civilian husband, hoping to bring him to see the world.
Unexpectedly, this boy was lucky. He followed the civilian husbands and picked up two heads in yesterday's encounter. With those two heads, the purpose of going out to see the world was achieved.
But this is not over yet. Three hours ago, the young master once again issued a new task to the civilian husband. Three hundred civilians led by two hundred city guards, with the task of guarding the brigade, bypassed the valley abruptly, with the purpose of finding a rocky slope.
The mouth of this valley is quite large, five or six miles long from front to back and a hundred meters wide. Looking all the way, no one can find where the rocky slope Wei B mentioned is.
As luck would have it, my nephew was just so lucky that he discovered the overgrown rocky slope first.
The young master said that whoever can find the rocky slope will be rewarded with a small courtyard with two entrances when he returns. I think the young master will not default on his debt.
After the two ran a few hundred meters, something suddenly shook behind them. Rumble... A series of continuous explosions came, followed by the sound of rolling boulders echoing across the valley.
The middle-aged man stopped first and grabbed his nephew. The two of them looked back and saw a burst of dust blowing into their faces, making them cough repeatedly.
Wait for the dust to clear. By the starlight, the two of them saw a pile of rocks cutting off the entrance of the valley, directly blocking the way.
Folk husbands kept appearing around them, and all of them looked disgraced. At this time, a group of city guards on horseback arrived from behind, and the man at the head shouted: "Everyone obeys the order, rush to the other side of the valley, and set up roadblocks with all your strength." After speaking, the man looked up. Looking at the sky, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, I caught up, but I almost ruined my second brother's plan.
Thinking of this, he looked at the excited young man in the crowd, smiled and said, "What's your name?" The young man was stunned.
The middle-aged man beside him hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Teacher, my nephew's last name is Han, which means Handan." The instructor obviously recognized the middle-aged man and asked in surprise: "Old Fang, this kid is a junior in your family. ?" The middle-aged man looked at the cautious young man beside him proudly, smiled and cupped his hands, and responded: "To tell you the truth, Han'er is the orphan of my third brother's family. After the couple left, this child followed me to make a living. "Yes." Upon hearing this, the instructor roughly understood the young man's whereabouts. He rolled his eyes, looked at the young man and asked, "Since he is Lao Fang's nephew, he is a soldier of someone who is guarding me. It just so happens that our eleventh team is still missing one." Quota, would you like to be a messenger under me, little guy?" After hearing what he said, the civilians who were watching were all amazed, and then looked at the young man with envy.
The middle-aged man also looked overjoyed and hurriedly pulled the young man to bow his head. Seeing this, the instructor nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Okay, for the time being, you will follow Lao Fang. When you return to Anyi, I will personally take you to register. From now on, you will be a member of the city guard. "
"Yes, yes, thank you, Coach Wei... Come on, kowtow to Coach Wei." The middle-aged man was so excited that he pulled the young man to kneel down.
When the coach saw this, he hurriedly shouted: "No, please don't. We don't want to do this. If my second uncle and second brother find out, they will have to skin me." Click, click, click... Horse hooves not far away. The sound goes from far to near.
"Old Jiu, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and set up defenses. My second uncle sent the order and the barbarians are already coming towards us." The person said, looked at the young man in front of him, his eyes suddenly lit up and asked: " Is this the rocky slope that this boy found?" Before Wei Laojiu could say anything, he came to the young man with a smile and invited: "You are very good, come to our seventh team, and follow me directly from now on, I will keep you popular. You drink spicy food, I think you are not young anymore, I will introduce you to some maids in the mansion later..."
"Fuck, Lao Liu, what are you talking about? This kid is already mine." Wei Laojiu stepped forward angrily to interrupt him.
Wei Laoliu pretended to be confused, pointed at the clothes on the young man's body, and said, "He is yours. He is wearing a civilian uniform. Do you think I am blind?" Lao Liu's name was Wei E, which was Wei B's fifth uncle's son, Lao Jiu's name is Wei Huan, and he is the sixth uncle's son. They are both around 20 years old, and they grew up practicing martial arts together, so they have always had a good relationship.
The reason why Wei E doesn't give face to his good brother and just steals people shamelessly is actually because of Wei B's force.
Wei B created a ranking list for the City Guards and the City Guards. Ordinary members did not participate in the evaluation. The main targets of the assessment were the coaches.
Of course, there are many ways for coaches to obtain points, but military merit must bear the brunt. For example, during this expedition, Wei C will award certain points based on the performance and contribution of each team. The higher the points the team has, the higher the ranking will be and the more generous the various corresponding benefits will be.
Wei E and Wei Huan have long been eyeing the heavy Disha weapon in Wei B's hands. Now they have almost the same points, about two hundred points apart, and can exchange their points for a heavy Disha weapon tailor-made for them.
And these two hundred points fell on the young man in front of him. Successfully blocking the enemy's retreat is a great achievement. Let alone two hundred points, five hundred points is not too much.
With so many points, not only will the ranking of the team they lead will rise, but the welfare benefits of the team members will also increase. Naturally, the team members will also be more devoted to them.
Of course, the most important thing is that after they have the points, they can redeem the magic weapon from Wei B.
So this young man must grab it.
