Chapter 13 Recruitment of Soldiers
Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, the little prince is already twelve years old, Yan Ding is pleased that his son is growing up happily at the same time, the Yuan army is more aggressive and more imminent, what can Da Zhou do - recruitment!
Yan Ding, the king of Zhou, told the world that any warrior who wants to serve the Great Zhou and recover the Central Plains can come to join the army, provided that they must pass the audit.
The edict had just informed the world that Qiu Yezi found that something was wrong and hurried to the Anning Palace to meet the king of Zhou. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"Father, the child thinks that this kind of selection cannot subdue the bandits who live in the deep mountains and old forests for a long time, and they may take the opportunity to buy those eliminated players to fight against the imperial court, which is not good for us!" Yan Ding put his hands behind his back, bowed his head and said, "Then what do you think?" Akibazi said confidently: "As far as I know, most of the difficult brothers and sisters of the gangsters and the people are imprisoned, so it is better to let the prisoners also voluntarily participate in this selection, and each person who is promoted can be spared the disaster of prison!" Yan Ding shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not good!" Are you sure that the bandits are willing to fight against the Yuan? ”
Akibazi said: "My father doesn't know, these bandits are all kings of the mountains in troubled times, most of them are the descendants of the rich and the poor, and some are patriotic soldiers, so their national feelings are still indelible." Father, if you release the bandits in the prison, there will naturally be movement in the mountains and forests, and when the time comes, our court will be able to persuade them to join the army to defend against foreign enemies! Father, there are many masters in the people! ”
Yan Ding nodded: "Then what if they collude inside and outside to rebel?" Qiu Yezi blew a breath: "Father, you are really old, except that they have lived enough, how dare you break ground on the top of Tai Sui Ye?" Besides, we soldiers don't eat together! Yan Ding nodded and talked with Autumn Leaves until late at night.
Since the change of the slogan was issued, nearly 20,000 laborers in the Great Zhou State have signed up to participate in the military selection.
The system of martial arts competition is as follows: all male civilians who have reached the age of 15 but have not exceeded the age of 50 can directly join the army; Those who are the same age as the prisoners can participate in the recruitment of soldiers, and those who are better than the soldiers can directly join the army; All those who sign up for the army can participate in the general selection competition if they win more than two soldiers, and finally fifteen generals will be selected, and the top three can volunteer to serve as palace guards.
The recruitment of soldiers in the contest was vigorously carried out, but 17,000 prisoners directly joined the army, and a total of 100 people passed the contest, of which as many as 70 prisoners were imprisoned, and ninety percent of the prisoners were bandits, and the only remaining 30 people of the people actually came from the deep mountains, and the strong soldiers recruited this time were basically bandits! This really weighs on the autumn leaves. The final round of selection will be contested, and Yan Ding will be present in person.
On this day, Yan Ding sat on the tiger chair in front of the ring, next to the left guard, Qiu Yezi, and Ling Bo. His two children secretly climbed onto the roof of a fifth-floor inn behind him, and although it was dangerous, it didn't stop their enthusiasm for seeing real knives and guns. Behind Yan Ding stood two hundred elite soldiers.
There were fifty pairs of people sitting on the edge of the vast ring who were about to show their skills, Yan Ding couldn't wait, and said to Qiu Yezi on the side: "That, everyone is here, let's start quickly!" Akibako promised.
Akibako, dressed in battle uniform, walked domineeringly towards the center of the ring, and the crowds of people naturally formed by the audience from all over the ring under the ring naturally rolled up a steady stream of shouts. At this time, Akibako walked to the center of the ring and made a series of opening remarks directly in front of him: Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to say a few words before the wonderful battle of these hundred warriors. The Mongols occupied the hinterland of our Central Plains and killed my compatriots, and the king of Zhou signed a peace treaty with the Yuan court for all of us, but the Yuan court was domineering and aggressive! As a subject of my Great Zhou, no matter what you think, the blood of the Han people flowing in your body will not lead us to destruction! There must be no shortage of spies from Mongolia among the spectators present, ahahaha! But it's okay, just in time for you to go back and bring a message! Let's just say that our king Yan Ding doesn't need a treacherous friend like you, if you offend my rivers and mountains again, you will be splashed with blood in the Mongolian steppe!
The spectators were excited, and many people were shouting for Akiba's impassioned words! Qiu Yezi shouted loudly again: "The hundred people in front of you, fifteen people must become the generals of my Great Zhou, the rules of the game are very simple, in the twenty-five link, if someone wins with one enemy and two enemies, the king or the winner can choose two people to win directly!" ”
Akibako roared loudly: "The competition begins, the first group, the one-eyed dragon vs. the prodigal son!" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two opponents sitting opposite each other flying and jumping up, kicking together in the middle of the ring, the one-eyed dragon's wonderful leg skills won a lot of applause, how could the prodigal son look over, and took the opportunity to take advantage of a leaning swallow paddling through the crotch of the one-eyed dragon, only to see the one-eyed dragon screaming and falling to the ground fiercely, convulsions, blood flowing under the crotch, Autumn Leaves quickly called the imperial doctor to carry the one-eyed dragon away. The prodigal son stood aside and held a bloody tube-like thing in his hand, and the scene was truly miserable. The spectators were different, and the loud screams made Yan Ding completely annoyed, so he quickly sent someone to stop them.
This is followed by the second round. Round 3...... Soon came to the final round, and in the end there were only three people left, and it stands to reason that the three of them only take one and a half people, but half of them are just dead people, if the three of them are directly promoted, they can guarantee fifteen candidates, so that the number of recruitment plans can be successfully completed, but there are inevitably parallel goods among these three people. I saw a black-faced man on the field shouting: "I want to pick both of them!" King Zhou said: "This is very unfair to you!" The black-faced man replied: "Don't care about these details, since I have the strength, why care about the number of opponents!" This sentence may have deeply infected Yan Ding, so Yan Ding entrusted: "Take care, I'm optimistic about you!"
Yan Ding's words made the spectators completely boil, and Qiu Yezi landed in the middle of the ring with a somersault: "That's it, you compete in martial arts, remember to stop at the point, don't be as cruel as the prodigal son!" Akibako shook her head as she spoke, her mouth opening and closing. The two three players arrived, and they saw the black-faced man holding a big knife in his hand, and his weird smile made the two opponents in front of him shudder. But his opponent is not an ordinary goods, a young man in Tsing Yi, holding a sword, another scholar holding an iron fan, I heard that there is no Jinshi's heart is unbalanced and disabled several Jinshi, and he was imprisoned in prison, this is not a policy relaxation just a few days after he came out to regain the appearance of a scholar, which is full of laughter!
The black-faced man thrust the big knife upside down into the ring wood with his right hand, and then the horse stepped steadily, made a deep breath and then slowly stretched out his left foot forward, the hole in the shoe had been filled in by his black foot, he made a false step, and then the front palm was facing the person in front of the palm, and the right hand quickly grabbed the knife and shouted: "Two brothers let the horse come!" When the iron fan scholar heard this, he obviously seemed relatively calm, and he did not lose the duty of a scholar, that is, he could endure it. And at a glance, he knew that the young man in Tsing Yi who loved to play cool must not be able to stand the stimulation, and he held the sword and jumped up, as if the sword qi could split this ring in half. The black-faced man just swung his legs back quickly, and the young man in Tsing Yi returned to the distance, spitting blood, kneeling on one knee, and then raised his head with difficulty and looked at the iron fan scholar pitifully. At this time, the audience was already full of voices.
The iron fan scholar nodded to his companion, then opened the fan and said, "It's quite hot today, but you're wearing a little too much, do you take it off or I'll help you take it off?" The black-faced man's face was trembling when he said it, and the scholar could see at once that the black-faced man was impatient, and he was impatient, and he didn't take root under his feet, and the scholar certainly knew what to do.
Seeing the black-faced man slashing with a knife, the scholar turned sideways, and kicked his right leg to the joint of the big man's leg, but this big man was so durable, the scholar shook his head, only to see the very faced man attack again, the scholar opened the iron fan and blindfolded the big man's eyes, and then there was a somersault and kick, one of which kicked the big man's chin hard, the big man turned around 270 degrees and fell to the ground hard, and there was no movement for a while. Fortunately, he was blocked by the young swordsman in Tsing Yi, and at the moment of their battle, Yan Qing on the eaves on the fifth floor of the inn screamed and slid down, the scholar lightly touched the ground with his toes, and the inconspicuous clouds and mist wrapped around him, and then a flying body caught Yan Qing, Yan Ding's wide mouth could finally take a breath, but Yan Yu was also frightened by his brother's stumble, and the black-faced man saw that he hurriedly caught Yan Yu like a gust of wind.
Yan Ding saw all this in front of him, of course, the three strong men were available, one sacrificed himself for righteousness, and two were brave in the face of righteousness, all of which reflected a "righteousness", Yan Ding said loudly: "The three of you will be my guards!" The visitors all said applauded. Akibako said, "We don't even know their names......"
The black-faced man smiled: "Under Xiao Chen!" The man in Tsing Yi shook his hair: "Under Xiaoxi!" The scholar of the iron fan took a deep breath: "On the seventh day of the second month, I am willing to serve the king and never give up!"
