From Chang'an to Shengzhou, two thousand miles away, Zhang Tianyi did not walk hard, and the chaotic southern land only added a few wisps of dust to him.

After arriving in Shengzhou, the expected siege of the army did not appear, and Zhang Tianyi was a little disappointed. After some inquiry, he went to the recruiting place outside the city.

When Zhang Tianyi was young, he also went to the military camp with his father and saw the scene of recruitment. Although the memory is a little vague, it is probably just a huge school field, which is equipped with various weapons and stone locks, and tests the martial arts and strength of the soldiers under the school.

Zhang Tianyi had never doubted his memory, but the complete strangeness in front of him brought him great confusion.

Not far away, a row of wooden sheds was the place where the recruits were recruited, and in front of a large table stood a wooden sign with a notice posted on it, indicating the relevant matters of the recruitment in black and white, and a young man in armor stood aside and explained loudly to everyone.

There was a circle of people in front of the notice, all of them teenagers, not a single one of them. Few of the young people were literate, and almost all of them listened, and no one looked at the signs on the wooden signs. Zhang Tianyi looked at the notice carefully and found that it was exactly what the young man on the side said.

The notice said nothing more than three points: recruit innocent teenagers between the ages of 14 and 18; for each person recruited, a settling-in allowance of 10 copper coins will be paid, and if there is no family member, the settling-in allowance will be paid to the soldier himself; after successful recruitment, he must serve for 10 years, and there will be an allowance of 10 copper coins every year, and if he has made meritorious service in battle, there will be a relative reward; if he dies in battle, each person will be given a one-time pension of 100 yuan, and the pension will be handed over to the person who is set in front of the soldier.

Although the age of recruiting soldiers is a little low, Zhang Tianyi didn't think much about it, after all, each army has its own characteristics. Only the settling-in allowance and pension issued by Zhang Tianyi were secretly surprised.

Although the reform of the military system has begun in recent years, the practice of recruiting soldiers has not stopped. Zhang Tianyi is a "knowledgeable" person, in the past, the settling-in allowance issued to soldiers was only a few hundred wen per person, at most only one or two, and the pension after the war death was only a few yuan.

Zhang Tianyi was a little unbelieving in his heart, but when he saw the successfully recruited soldiers happily going home carrying a sack of copper coins, he had to believe it again.

At the big table next to the billboard, several young people are working hard to write, the brush is very formal, and the writing is also very neat.

"These teenagers are literate, and they must be from extraordinary backgrounds!" Zhang Tianyi thought to himself.

It so happened that a thin boy ran out of the wooden shed naked, and before he had time to put on his clothes, he casually wrapped a patched coat around his waist, and ran to the big table in a hurry.

"I ...... My name is Zhang Daniu, and I was chosen!"

The thin boy looked very weak, and only after a few steps did he run quickly, and when he spoke, he was out of breath and his face flushed, and he did not know whether it was because of joy or other reasons.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, fill in your information. At the desk, a young man with a pen looked back at his companion who came out with Zhang Daniu, and when he saw him nodding, he asked with a kind smile.

"I ...... I can't read......" Zhang Daniu lowered his head with some shame, Zhang Daniu has been illiterate since he was a child, but today is the first time he feels ashamed of this kind of thing.

Reading and literacy is something that only people with great skills can do, Zhang Daniu is just an ordinary peasant boy, in his previous life, these people with great skills are all things that need to be looked up to. In his simple heart, he never felt that he would have the day when he would intersect with these people with great skills, and he couldn't compare to them, which was a matter of course, and where did he be ashamed?

To this day, after walking into that row of wooden sheds, it was only half an hour...... In the end, when the boy who was about the same age as him announced that he had been selected, Zhang Daniu was not only happy, but also a little ashamed. He stood with those who had been to look up to him, and it became a guilt that he was illiterate, because his companions were literate.

"It's okay, you say, I'll help you remember. The young man with the pen still smiled gently.

Just as Zhang Daniu lowered his head to speak, a young man ran out of the wooden shed again.

"Damn, why don't you want Lao Tzu?"

The man who cried out was a stout young man, eight feet tall, with thick limbs, a large tattoo on his body, and a fierce look on his angry face.

When this person came out, he was also naked, his face was also red, and Zhang Tianyi, who had a sensitive nose, smelled a faint fragrance, which seemed to be the smell of soaphorn.

"They actually bathed these people with soaphorns?" Zhang Tianyi looked surprised, soaphorns are not expensive, Zhang Tianyi used them every day in the past, but they were not cheap enough for everyone to afford.

At this time, Zhang Tianyi took a closer look at these teenagers who were in charge of recruitment.

Very clean, clean face, clean hands, clean and spotless on both the armor and the clothes.

Looking around the wooden shed, and even the camp, which is said to be a refugee settlement, there is a strange cleanliness everywhere. Sewage and garbage are completely invisible, and there is no foul smell in the air, and even the fragrance of some plants is emanated.

When Zhang Tianyi recovered from his shock a little, he saw three young men with weapons gradually surrounding the troublemaker.

Zhang Tianyi could see that the sturdy young man who was making trouble had learned some kung fu, but the three teenagers who surrounded him were calm. The three of them slowly approached the man with neat steps......

Without an explanation, these teenagers in charge of recruiting didn't even have the slightest meaning to explain.

Seeing that the three teenagers were about to make a move, Zhang Tianyi's eyes lit up.

Jumping up, Zhang Tianyi took off the long sword with his backhand, and before the sword was unsheathed, his body flashed past the three teenagers, and went straight to the strong man.

The scabbard of the sword slapped on the joint of the stout young man, and the man could not bear the pain, and fell to the ground almost without resistance.

Zhang Tianyi could have subdued such a move with one move, but he chose a few of the most beautiful moves.

Standing long, the tip of the sword is obliquely fingered, and the clothes are fluttering, so you look like you!

The three teenagers glanced at each other, a little strange, and even the teenagers who were struggling to write at the desk looked up at Zhang Tianyi. Under a tree opposite, Zheng Tai in the rocking chair opened his eyes and glanced at Zhang Tianyi.

Zhang Tianyi, who was posing, felt a trace of strangeness in the eyes of these teenagers, but he didn't understand: "Hasn't his beautiful kung fu attracted the attention of the other party?"

The confused Zhang Tianyi glanced at Zheng Tai in the shade of the opposite tree from the corner of his eye, he noticed this special young man at the beginning, and intuitively told him that this person should be the person in charge here, and his actions were naturally played for him. However, after reading this, the man did not say anything, but got up and walked towards the gate.

At this time, Zhang Tianyi saw a carriage coming from the gate, and two teenagers walked down from the carriage.

"Big brother, second brother, why are you here?"

Lao Zhou Zhou Kang took people to Gaoyou, and the recruitment was handed over to Zheng Tai.

"How's it going? Nothing happened, right?" Xu Chen asked when he heard the commotion here when he was just in the carriage.

"Oh, it's nothing, there was a guy who made trouble just now, and someone has cleaned it up. Zheng Tai smiled and pointed to Zhang Tianyi, who was still posing, Zheng Tai was sitting in the shade on the side just now, and he saw the troublemaker, and it was worth him to care, but Zhang Tianyi's actions surprised him.

"Oh?" Xu Chen heard this, followed Zheng Tai's point, and looked at Zhang Tianyi.

"Could it be that this person is the boss here?" Zhang Tianyi heard Zheng Tai's name for Xu Chen, coupled with the faint momentum emanating from Xu Chen's body, standing out from the crowd, Zhang Tianyi consciously would not admit his mistake.

"Why is this brother here?" Xu Chen walked over and asked with a fist at Zhang Tianyi.

Zhang Tianyi has been in the dust all the way, but the momentum on his body is completely different from that of the refugees, so Xu Chen Fang has this question.

"I heard that there was a recruitment of troops here, so I wanted to try it. Zhang Tianyi also clasped his fists and saluted.

"Oh......" Xu Chen stared at Zhang Tianyi, nodded slowly, and then asked, "Brother Tai knows kung fu?"

"I have learned boxing and ......kicking with my master for a few years" Zhang Tianyi wanted to say a few perfunctory words at will, but after facing Xu Chen's deep eyes, he was shocked, and then said honestly: "A few years ago, with the help of the family teacher, I was lucky to build a foundation and succeeded. ”

"Oh......" Xu Chen still nodded lightly, and then smiled: "That brother Tai is also a martial arts master!"

"Don't dare! It's just a few years of kung fu, and it's not a big use to go to the battlefield. Zhang Tianyi replied reservedly.

Xu Chen smiled, and then asked, "I don't know where Brother Tai came from?"

Zhang Tianyi replied: "Chang'an!"

"Oh?" Xu Chen asked: "Since you are from Chang'an, why did Brother Tai go all the way to Shengzhou to join the army? I remember that the imperial court has ordered that all parts of the south can recruit soldiers and horses on their own, and besides, Shuai Ying, the commander of the marching army, Wang Zhonghe, is in Yangzhou, why does Brother Tai not go to Yangzhou, but come to Shengzhou?"

Zhang Tianyi could feel a trace of vigilance in Xu Chen's words, and he could also understand it, after all, his actions had a strong purpose. It's just that when he was in Chang'an, he regarded the prime minister in front of him as a mediocre gentleman, and he never thought that there would be a confrontation situation today.

When he first arrived in Shengzhou, Zhang Tianyi heard the people in the city talk about some of the deeds of the person in front of him. With thousands of old and weak soldiers blocking the elite attack of the rebels, this alone made this person break away from the ranks of the gentlemen.

After facing this person today, although he was just chatting a few words, Zhang Tianyi clearly noticed that this person was unusual. Whether it is this camp or the practice of recruiting soldiers, as well as the faint momentum on this person.

So, Zhang Tianyi decided to tell the truth.

"Because I want revenge!"
