The idea of dedicating the drawings of the horizontal knife and the Mo knife to the imperial court was temporarily suppressed by Liu Tao, and the four of them naturally began to train the soldiers again. The style of the horizontal knife has been determined, and at the same time the production of the horseshoe, saddle and stirrup is also underway.

Calculating the time, it really took around three months before the preparation could be completed and the expedition began.

"Deran, Uncle Shi told you to go out ......" Two days later, seeing that it was mid-February, Lu Yan came to the school and shouted.

"Cangshan, you and I have made an appointment to get married, so isn't my father your father? Supposedly, you should call your 'father'. Liu Tao put down the stone lock in his hand, and then walked towards him while wiping his sweat.

"That's what I called it at first, and he said his own thing." Lu Yan spread out his hands, he really didn't blame him for this.

"Okay, my father is ...... this character" Liu Tao was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and walked towards the outside of the camp. Even if it is a militia group, a military camp is a military camp, and naturally unrelated people cannot be allowed to approach.

As soon as he arrived at the outskirts of the militia camp, he saw Liu Yuanqi, who had not been seen for a few days, and there were many young people around him. Liu Tao then remembered that this father had said before that he would help him in the clan and find some personal soldiers, but he forgot about it.

"Why do you wear so little? Although the weather has warmed up, it is still a little cold......" Seeing Liu Tao come out in a single dress, Liu Yuanqi frowned.

"I was just working hard, sweating, and when it was hot, I took off my coat." Liu Tao hurriedly explained, almost instinctively. When any child is questioned by his parents, he will subconsciously explain or shirk responsibility.

"Did you wipe your sweat? Never mind...... It's all such a big person......" Liu Yuanqi wanted to say a few words, and then he reacted, Liu Tao in front of him was no longer the little kid in his memory, he was taller than him, "Let me introduce you, you all come up!" ”

The two young people behind him immediately came to Liu Tao with more than fifty other young people.

"The fifty people in the back are all children of the Liu family, and their generation is either your cousin or your cousin, of course, there are also one or two nephews, basically all of whom are out of five suits, these are the pro-soldiers I found for you." Liu Yuanqi took the lead in introducing the fifty people behind.

Liu Tao glanced at it, there was no Liu Bei inside, and nodded to show that he understood. As for the appearance of clan nephews, even those who are older than him, there is nothing strange about it. In my memory, Xun Yu is six years older than Xun Yu, and I have to call him 'uncle'.

"Marching and fighting is not child's play, even if I am the founder of this militia group, I can't take ......special care of you just because you are my people," Liu Tao looked at these fifty people and shouted, "You can't endure hardship, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, it's better to go back directly." ”

"............" But the fifty had no intention of going back.

"What you said doesn't actually mean anything...... Liu Yuanqi coughed lightly, "Those who are timid and afraid of things and are lazy and hardworking will basically not come here." Don't be polite to them, the stricter you are, the happier they are. ”

"It can't be, it's all a bunch of people who like to be abused, right?" Hearing this, Liu Tao was full of black lines, pulled Liu Yuanqi over and asked in a low voice.

"What stupid things are you talking about?" Liu Yuanqi patted Liu Tao's head when he heard this, "These clansmen are actually the concubines of each family, or the second son or something......"

To put it simply, it is difficult to inherit the family business, and basically you can only rely on your own hard work in the future. Just like Liu Tao fooled the four people, Liu Yuanqi had to fool the clansmen like this, and then recruited fifty fools full of dreams.

How can there be immortals in war? I saw the achievements, but I couldn't see the bones behind me......

"Anyway, it's a mess at home, and it's idle. You bring it to the army to have a good experience, and no matter what, it is better to have some of your own people in the army. Liu Yuanqi further explained.

"As long as you are not afraid of death, and are willing to obey orders...... Liu Tao heard this, and immediately came to them, "I, Liu Tao, Liu Deran promised you that one day when I am rich and noble, I will definitely not treat you badly!" If I have a bite of dry rice to eat, I will never let you drink it thin! ”

"Thank you, Chief!" Everyone responded one after another, Liu Tao's identity is not a general, and it is not good to call him indiscriminately. In the end, after thinking about it, he simply called him the leader.

Liu Tao nodded, with this momentum and attitude, the first impression is really good, as long as the follow-up supports the daily exercises, then with them as pro-soldiers, he can indeed be a lot safer. It's that Liu Tao is a little unaccustomed to being called, and he feels like he has become the king of the mountain.

"The other two are these two ......" Seeing that Liu Tao had already greeted them, Liu Yuanqi pushed the other two young people up. In fact, just now, the two of them have been looking at Liu Tao.

At first, it was a school examination or observation, and even vaguely disdainful, but then his face was a little better.

"First of all!" Liu Yuan first introduced the one on the left, "Your son respects your uncle's concubine, your brother Liu Ge, the cousin Zirui, and the one who stops fighting for martial arts." Ten years ago, it started to ...... everywhere Well, I am very skilled in martial arts and riding archery......"

said that it was a study tour, but in fact, he went out to be a ranger, and then added the skills of riding a horse and archery, plus a ring head knife and marksmanship. Considering that he is the son of Liu Zijing's family, even if he is a concubine, his knowledge should not be too bad.

Liu Zijing, yes, that's the name, a few months ago, when Liu Yuanqi asked him to send some things to Zijing's uncle's house, Liu Tao was shocked for a moment, and then in his memory, the memory of Liu Zijing surfaced.

In fact, there is nothing strange about the same table words, Hu Zhao, a native of Yingchuan, like Zhuge Liang, both have the same words as Kong Ming; According to some gossip in later generations, it is said that Gao Shun, like Sima Yi, is called Zhongda. It's just that later, the Sima family won the world, and in order to avoid it, he didn't hide his words.

Compared with Liu Yuanqi, an aspiring father, Liu Zijing is a standard squire. When Liu Bei pointed to the big mulberry tree in the southeast corner of the house and said, "I will definitely take such a feather covered car in the future", Liu Zijing heard it and immediately persuaded him, "Don't talk nonsense, let our family suffer the crime of destroying the door." ”

Just one thing, Liu Zijing's image of the local squire has basically been highlighted.

Liu Yuanqi also expects the younger generations to be able to mix up, but Liu Zijing only wants to live a peaceful and stable life, and his life is better than Liu Yuanqi's, and he has several wives and concubines.

As a concubine, Liu Ge is naturally not welcomed at home, and he will have to rely on himself in the future. He didn't learn to plow the land, nor did he learn a craft like Liu Bei, but went to be a ranger for ten years and came back after learning a skill.

"By the way......" Liu Yuanqi finally concluded, "Liu Ge beat all the fifty people down, showing his strength, I will recommend it alone." ”

"If the clan brother really has the ability, I should reuse it as appropriate!" Liu Tao nodded, and then promised him.

"I don't even have the qualifications to be a commander?" Liu Ge raised his eyebrows, very confident in his skills.

"The militia is not my own militia, if the other two commanders have no opinion, then I naturally have no opinion, after all, if I can take care of my own people, I naturally have to take care of my own people." Liu Tao smiled, "Another ......"
