Chapter 403: Surrender to the Army
Before dawn, when the sky was hazy, Shen Feng picked up his baggage and set off with a silver and black spear, he secretly got up, in order to be sad in vain, he did not say goodbye to the eldest lady and Miss Lan, only left a letter, and left home early.
Today is the day of the army, Tang Wei's military camp is set up in Baozhou (Baoding, Hebei), riding a fast horse, almost dusk can be reached, Baozhou is equivalent to the south gate of the capital, is a very important military geographical location, west of the Taihang Mountains, east of the Jizhong Plain, north control of Sanguan, south of the nine provinces, known as "the passage of the world, the capital of Gyeonggi heavyland." "And the people of this place are strong, strong, and populous, which is conducive to recruitment.
At dusk, they arrived in Baozhou, although Baozhou is not more prosperous and rich than the capital Jiangnan, but the people are stronger and taller than the Jiangnan people, leading the horses into the city, looking for most of the circle in the city and still not seeing the military camp recruiting.
While he was wondering, there happened to be a young man carrying a burden next to him, the teenager was about fifteen or sixteen years old, his face was still childish, but his body was taller than ordinary children, Shen Feng stopped him, and asked with a smile: "This little brother, please stay, and ask how to go to Baozhou Mansion?"
The young man looked him up and down a few times, and smiled contemptuously: "Could it be that you want to join the army?" I see that you look like a roe deer, and it is a shame to be a soldier, so I advise you to live a good life at home with your daughter-in-law in your arms, and you have to rely on us Cangzhou men to protect your family and defend the country."
My day, I was actually despised by a little rabbit cub, Shen Feng pulled a stiff smile and said: "It turns out that the little brother is from Cangzhou, disrespectful and disrespectful, of course it is not my turn to defend the family and the country, I just want to earn some military salary, if I am okay this time, I can ask a daughter-in-law to live with my arms and children." ”
"Look at your little bit of talent! The young man snorted, turned his gaze to the silver-black spear in his hand, his eyes suddenly showed affection, and asked, "Is this gun yours, can you lend me a look?"
"Take it!" Shen Feng smiled and threw it to him.
As soon as the young man took the silver-black spear, he pressed the spear down, but he was really energetic, and he let out a loud shout, and reluctantly carried the spear on his shoulder: "Your spear is really heavy enough! It seems that you still have a lot of strength." ”
Shen Feng smiled modestly and said, "How dare you, I can't get on the table with this little strength." ”
The young man said unhappily: "Hypocritical villain, if you have strength, you have strength, it's rare that I, Yang Mo, can afford to look up to a person, what about you, who are you?"
This kid doesn't look young, but he is quite precocious, Shen Feng smiled and said: "My name is Shen Feng, a person from Shudi, since you know where the military camp is, can you please lead the way." "I promised Sister Shu last time, since he is going to join the army, he claims to be from Shudi.
"Shu people-" Yang Mo frowned and said, "Why do you Shu people also come to join the army, aren't you afraid of being excluded?"
Shen Feng smiled and said, "Little brother, don't you also look down on the people of Shudi?"
Yang Mo hurriedly denied: "Of course not, they are all serving the country, where are the people, but in the eyes of others, you can't think so, I advise you not to say that you are from Shudi." ”
Shen Feng said indifferently: "I'm afraid of Mao, who dares to make irresponsible remarks, Lao Tzu will beat him flat!"
"Yes, this is our Dahua boy!" Young Yang Mo turned to say: "I am also going to join the army, you follow me!"
Hebei Minfeng is really fierce, such a big child can already carry a gun and kill the enemy, Shen Feng said with a sigh: "The little brother came to join the army at a young age, and his ambitions are really extraordinary." ”
Yang Mo suddenly snorted and said: "I killed a villain in a village, the brother of the villain and the government are in the same group, I burned the official mansion in the night, and ran out, I heard that Baozhou was recruiting soldiers, so I also came to join the army." ”
"Good killing! I didn't expect the little brother to have chivalrous bones. Shen Feng smiled and said: "But this time I want to kill Manichaeism, and killing the enemy on the battlefield is not as good as killing a villain, aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not even afraid of you, how can I be as good as you. Yang Mo smiled disdainfully, patted his chest and showed arrogance: "Manichaeism killed innocent people, I wanted to slaughter a few of them for a long time!"
Look at his murderous face, this murderous work is definitely not the first time he has done it, Shen Feng hugged his fists and said: "Then please ask the little brother to lead the way!"
The two walked together to the recruitment office of the barracks, there was a line of troops at the recruitment office, the atmosphere of the army in this place was relatively high, as soon as they heard the imperial court recruitment, they all came to join the army, this time the brother-in-law did not open the door for him, even if the two are relatives, Shen Feng has to start from an ordinary soldier.
This also conformed to his wishes, this wanted him to be a petty officer, not to mention that others were not convinced, he himself felt ashamed, when it came to the country, no one could joke, the two lined up for an hour, and finally it was their turn.
"My name is Yang Mo, a native of Cangzhou, Hebei Province, fifteen this year!"
"What did you do before?"
"Fisherman!"
"Then go to the infantry battalion, next!"
Shen Feng stepped forward and said, "My name is Shen Feng, a native of Shuchuan, and I am eighteen this year."
"Shuchuan people? Shudi people are not accepted here, and the loyal and good people we want are not treacherous and shameless people" It was a local county lieutenant in Baozhou who recruited soldiers, and the local recruitment of soldiers was generally responsible for the local pavilion chief, lieutenant chief, county lieutenant and other officers, and it was not difficult to see the contempt revealed from his expression and speech.
I didn't expect this kind of atmosphere to spread to the army, in the history of hundreds of years, there are often precedents of Shu people treason and glory, so it led to this era, Shu people were greatly excluded, even if Shu Wanggui was a loyal soldier, it could not change this situation.
"Lord County Lieutenant, how do you conclude that there are no loyal and good people in Shudi, and how do you ensure that everyone else is a loyal and good person?
Shen Feng sneered, and said loudly: "Now that the imperial court is employing people, one more person will kill one more Manichaean person, but you have turned me away because of your long-standing prejudice, are you worthy of the country and the people, Manichaeism has killed innocent people, and Shu has also been killed and plundered, how can I live in peace, this time I will not destroy Manichaeism and vow not to give up!" At this time, I suddenly felt pity for Sister Shu, she has been struggling for so many years, what a hardship, although she is as wise as a demon, but how can the power of one person change the views of the people in the world, if you want to change this status quo, you must hold the position on the chessboard of the world.
Yang Mo also shouted on the side: "Well said! I will not give up until the Manichaeism is destroyed!"
Hey, the world is really changeable, I didn't expect to be so reluctant to enter the barracks before, but when I really came here, I said such a 'against my will', is this still me, Shen Feng smiled helplessly in his heart, and turned to a serious sentence: "If you don't let me enter the barracks, I will kill myself on the spot!"
Yang Mo couldn't help but be subdued by his words, and his face showed admiration: "Good look, this courage, I, Yang Mo, admire you, I will call you big brother in the future!"
What a fart, if you don't agree, Lao Tzu will go home and sleep directly, of course Shen Feng is not stupid enough to commit suicide, but he just learned a more awesome sentence.
The lieutenant hesitated, then asked, "What kind of farming did you do before?"
Shen Feng said: "Farming, I have grown cotton!"
The soldiers on the side suddenly burst into laughter, and the county lieutenant said with a mocking smile: "It turned out to be a flower planter, seeing that you are quite strong, but I didn't expect to do the things of a girl, go and go, there is no suitable soldier for you here, you still go home and water the flowers." ”
Shen Feng's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "Why don't we compete, if I lose, I will go back immediately, and if I win, let me join the infantry battalion, how about it?"
The county lieutenant snorted angrily and said: "What a big breath, you are nothing more than taller, embroidery is okay, you want to compete with me, I think you want to be beaten! I'll play with you!"
Shen Feng had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, holding a spear, he didn't even bother to put on a posture, and shouted: "Come on! Lao Tzu will accompany you with the strength of embroidery for a few moves." ”
"Dare to underestimate Uncle Ben!
The county lieutenant carried the weapon, shouted and rushed forward, Shen Feng blocked it at will, and the county lieutenant's whole person was knocked into the air, and his body flew directly into a large paper basket behind him: "The strength of this embroidery really works, can I advance to the barracks?"
Yang Mo was dumbfounded, and only after a while did he say excitedly: "It turns out that Brother Shen is so powerful, you just made this gun as if you were playing with embroidery needles!
Shen Feng said with a smile: "I am born with divine power, innate divine power, go, let's enter the barracks together"
"Stop!" the lieutenant shouted angrily, got up from the ground, waved his hand to the soldiers around him, and said, "Give it to me, hit him until he kneels and begs for mercy." After that, more than a dozen soldiers shouted up, and at this time, someone next to him suddenly shouted!
"Presumptuous, so bold to make trouble here-Brother Shen!
The person who came was Niu Zhuang, a fierce general under Tang Wei, Niu Zhuang couldn't help but be overjoyed, rushed forward and grabbed his arm, and said excitedly: "Brother Shen is also coming to join the army, Feng Sheng and I are looking forward to you coming to join the army, and the three of us will kill the enemy together." ”
Shen Feng said with a smile: "As long as your military camp doesn't dislike me, killing Manichaeism is one of my part!"
"Okay! I wasn't happy enough last time, I must kill it this time!" Niu Zhuang turned to ask, "Who is this little brother?"
Yang Mo hugged his fists and said: "My name is Yang Mo, General Niu, and Brother Shen and I will follow you in the future!"
Niu Zhuang patted his chest and said, "No problem, wrap it on my old cow!"
At this time, the county lieutenant ran over with a gray nose, pointed at Shen Feng and said: "General Niu, this person is from Shudi, and he still grows cotton, so it is not suitable to join our military camp!"
"I'll you!" Niu Zhuang kicked him, hatefully scolded: "Brother Shen can't enter the barracks, who else can enter, you dare to turn away capable people, see that my old cow doesn't punish you heavily-come here, take him down!
