Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xiao He is now becoming more and more fond of this young man who has repeatedly done amazing things. Although he still doesn't understand some of this young man's actions, he can feel this young man's majestic momentum from his heart.  In Xiao He's opinion, Lu Yuanpeng and Liu Bang are very similar in this regard.  The difference is that Liu Bang is penniless now and has no money to do anything amazing.  Xiao He stood up, dusted the sleeves of his robe, walked to the hall door with a relaxed expression, glanced outside the barracks, turned to Lu Yuanpeng with a smile.  "Young Master's method of recruiting soldiers has never been seen in ancient times. It's natural for a Young Master to have countless soldiers in his heart." "But Young Master doesn't know that with dozens of ant noses every month, a family of five will have more than enough money to spend. If he manages his family diligently and thriftily, in a few years, he can buy enough  With a few acres of thin land, how could a small family refuse?" Xiao He pondered for a moment and then asked Lu Yuanpeng with some confusion.  "It's just that I don't know why. I don't know why the young master only recruits soldiers under the age of eighteen to twenty. As everyone knows, there are many people who are beyond this range and are known to be brave. If we can recruit such people, we can help the young master suppress the bandits."  Wouldn't it be very helpful? "Xu Kan assigned Xiao He to assist Lu Yuanpeng in recruiting troops. Naturally, Xiao He was responsible for issuing the proclamation for the county government. Lu Yuanpeng asked Xiao He to recruit soldiers between the ages of eighteen and twenty.  Unless you are a scholar or have extraordinary courage, you will not be recruited.  Xiao He was very puzzled by Lu Yuanpeng's condition.  Thinking of this today, I really want to know what happened.  Naturally, Lu Yuanpeng could not tell Xiao He that he recruited these people to prepare for the chaos in the world in the future.  "I just think that these people will stay in the army for many years. If they are too old, they may not be able to live well when they are disarmed, but I have no other intention." Although Xiao He vaguely felt that Lu Yuanpeng would never make such a big effort.  It would be as simple as he said, but Lu Yuanpeng didn't explain it, and he couldn't ask further.  Xiao He nodded, looked at the time, and then looked at Lu Yuanpeng, who was wearing armor, and said: "Young Master" Xiao He smiled mockingly and said: "In the future, I will call you Military Marquis. The time has come, I am here  Just go out and make arrangements to recruit troops." After Xiao He finished speaking, he opened the door and walked out alone.  Although Lu Yuanpeng felt a little embarrassed, there were some things he absolutely couldn't say now, let alone to a person like Xiao He.  Lu Yuanpeng adjusted his armor and followed him out.  Xiao He and Lu Yuanpeng went up to the high platform and looked at the crowd of thousands of people below. Xue Ou and Wang Sui, who were sweating on their foreheads due to excitement and nervousness, hurriedly brought Chen Bi, Dong Zhu and others to greet Xiao He and Lu Yuanpeng.  And made way for the two of them.  Xiao He asked Lu Yuanpeng in a low voice and raised his hand to signal.  A servant who had been waiting under the stage picked up a drumstick and banged the three-tone drum "dong dong dong" to announce the start of recruitment.  The opening remarks for recruiting troops were made by Xiao He.  It¡¯s not that Lu Yuanpeng is shy about speaking on such occasions, but that Lu Yuanpeng really doesn¡¯t want to be too public.  Lu Yuanpeng has always believed in the code of conduct of keeping a low profile and doing things in a high profile, but in the past month or so in Peixian County, he has repeatedly stole the show.  According to Lu Yuanpeng, being in the spotlight is not a good thing, at least for the time being.  The criteria for selecting soldiers are very simple. There are only two items: bows and arrows and stone-lifting locks. You can choose any one of the two items.  If you choose archery, as long as one of the three arrows hits a target not more than ten steps away, it will be considered qualified.  If you choose to lift a stone lock, those who can lift a hundred kilograms of stone locks are also considered qualified.  Those who pass the assessment can go to the side and record their names.  However, at this time, a bamboo slip issued by the chief of the pavilion at the place of residence proving the age is required as proof.  After Xiao He announced the start of recruiting troops, Xue Ou, Wang Sui, Chen Bi and others all sang a sigh of relief.  It is extremely uncomfortable for them to stand on a high platform and receive the spotlight.  At this time, it was finally possible to step off the high platform, and several people rushed down to carry it.  Xue Ou and Chen Bi were in a group to preside over the bow and arrow assessment.  Wang Sui and Chen Xu teamed up to preside over the Shisuo assessment.  Dong Zhuze, Zhou Xin, and Wu Hu are responsible for filling in the name of the person entering.  As expected by Xiao He, there were many young people who wanted to join the county army, more than 500 of them.  Because the number of recruits this time was limited, as soon as the assessment began, these young people swarmed up, scrambling to take the assessment first, and the scene was chaotic.  The dozen or so officers brought by Xiao He could not stop the thousands of young men rushing forward. As soon as these officers stepped forward, they were pushed aside by the crowd, and then Xue Ou, Wang Sui, Chen Bi,  Dong Zhu and others got wrapped up in the crowd.  The chaotic crowd crowded and pushed each other, squeezing several people to the point of being unable to move, making it impossible for them to compete.   Such a scene made Xiao He a little surprised, and he shouted anxiously.  Although looking at these thousands of enthusiastic young men, Lu Yuanpeng was happy in his heart, knowing that today's recruitment was not about the soldiers choosing him, but that he could freely choose these young men.  Lu Yuanpeng also wanted these young and strong men to realize the majesty of military discipline now. He waved his hand to the energetic Li Bi and Luo Jia on both sides of the platform, signaling them to come in and suppress them.  Both Li Bi and Luo Jia were good at riding, but the two troops they brought with them could only barely sit still on their horses. They did not dare to rush their horses, but they only led one group of troops each to slow down the horses.  Slowly approaching the chaotic crowd, the two men used the sheathed copper swords in their hands to strike at the chaotic crowd.  The two soldiers from the county turned their halberds around and hit the crowd with their long halberd poles indiscriminately.  This burst of random beatings scattered the crowded crowd, and soon the overcrowded thousands of young people were driven out of the venue.  Because hunters have no land and have to fight with jackals, tigers and leopards all day long, which is very dangerous, many people do not want their children to engage in hunting anymore.  Also, many of the hunters in Peixian County are nobles and soldiers from Han, Wei, and Chu. They are not used to farming and do not want to be bandits. They mostly make a living by hunting. These people have a competitive spirit in their hearts.  nature.  Today, there are many Orion children who came to sign up to join the army. They live in the same village as Xue Ou, Chen Bi and others. There are more than a dozen of these young Orions.  Seeing the chaos at this time, Xue Ou called out the few young Orions whom he knew the basics of, and asked them to test their archery skills.  These cheerful hunters passed the test easily. Xue Ou asked Dong Zhu to record the names of these people, and then asked them to maintain order together with the dozen or so officers.  At first, Lu Yuanpeng thought that Xue Ou was taking care of a familiar villager, and he was a little dissatisfied, but it was hard to show it in front of everyone.  When I saw Xue Ou asking those people to help maintain order, I felt relieved.  With the addition of these dozen young hunters, and the two murderous troops of Li Bi and Luo Jia, the chaotic scene finally stabilized.  Xiao He on the side nodded and said: "I didn't expect that Boss Xue is actually a general" Please recommend and collect!
