Volume 1: Young Ambition, Emerging Chapter 9 The little girl Mu Huang, a conversation in the middle of the night
The scene that happened in front of him made everyone unbelievable, the little brother who was defeated by Qingcheng won with one move, and also knocked Qingcheng off the stage. Don't talk about others, even he himself had a stunned expression, and stayed in place for a long time without reacting.
"Could it be that I'm so good now?"
Such an idea was denied by himself in an instant, the little brother knew how powerful Qingcheng was, and after a moment of silence, he understood that he intended to give in, and then thought about Qingcheng's words, and he was even more convinced. However, what made him speechless was that he didn't want to compete for the limelight......
Everyone below hadn't eased up yet, and the first to react were Thunder Shadow and Wind, they hurriedly rushed to Qingcheng's side, pretending to help Qingcheng up, and at the same time looked around, Thunder Shadow whispered: "The young master is shrewd!" In this way, the people who should be taught are also taught, and we have also let out this limelight, and King Guhong is not easy to say. ”
"It's a bit ...... to lose like this"
"Okay, I also know it's ugly", Qingcheng covered his chest with one hand, slowly sat up, and said at the same time: "But for a while, I couldn't think of any good way, so I had to do it." But it hurt the man. ”
Qingcheng is thoughtful, and it is naturally not difficult to guess that the little brother has no intention of competing for the limelight, otherwise he would not be so angry, let alone not let people fight on stage all the time. At this moment, he stood up, clasped his fists with both hands and arched his hand at the little brother on the stage, and said with a chuckle: "Brother Tai is good at martial arts, and he is willing to bow to the wind, I believe that no one present should be able to beat you, congratulations." ”
Listening to Qingcheng's words, the little brother didn't have a happy expression, but snorted lightly, and was ready to jump off the stage to settle accounts with Qingcheng. However, at this time, the Chinese army on the notary table had also reacted, and after coughing lightly, he said loudly: "This ...... The recruit is really extraordinary, and his martial arts are outstanding. If no one comes on stage to challenge again, then you will be the champion of this first round. ”
Listening to the words of the Chinese army, everyone in the audience talked about it, although the little brother's skills are a mystery, but Qingcheng's means are in their eyes, and there are few people in the entire army who can be defeated, so for the little brother who defeated Qingcheng in one move, they naturally regard it as a master, how can anyone dare to challenge on stage. However, the little brother's house slave, the one named Lin Yang, also seemed to know that the master did not mean to be in the middle of the battle, and after a moment of silence, he was ready to turn over and go on stage to relieve the siege for the master.
"Hmph, Ben ...... The young master is excellent in martial arts, if you still have itchy skin, just come up and fight. ”
The little brother waved his hand at Lin Yang quietly, signaling him not to move, and at the same time shouted such a sentence, and no one in the audience dared to challenge. However, Lin Yang looked puzzled and didn't understand what his master was thinking.
"Since you're going to play, I'll play with you. When this mid-formation takes you in again, see if I don't kill you, hum. ”
Thinking like this in his heart, the little brother saw that no one dared to fight, so he turned to look at the Chinese army, waiting for him to announce the result. After the Chinese army pondered for a moment, he smiled helplessly and said: "Okay, the winner this time is this little brother, when the exercise is over and the new army is planned, you will be the official middle of our Wanli army." By the way, what's your name? ”
"Mu Huang."
After the first round of martial arts exercises, the second round began immediately after, and although the so-called freedom challenge, although it is indeed fair and just, there are only a few people who really dare to go on it. During this period, except for a teenager who really defeated a mid-battle in the Wanli army, there was no one who succeeded. And Mu Huang was indeed awarded the rank of Zhongzhen after the end.
The more than 20,000 people recruited this time were incorporated into the vanguard battalion, which was led by the right vanguard of the Wan Li Army, and was subdivided into the first battalion and the second battalion, and then managed by the two Chinese armies respectively.
In the Great Qi military system, there is a "commander" in each garrison army, who is responsible for commanding the whole army; "Join the army" is a person, who is actually the deputy commander of the army, responsible for giving advice to the commander-in-chief, and when going out at the same time, one of the two leads the troops, and the other defends the city, assisting each other; The "general" is the first striker in the army and the first general before the battle, who goes into battle to kill the enemy and dominates the battlefield; One person from the "left and right vanguards", each with half of the military strength, took the lead in the charge; As for the "middle army" (10,000 commanders), the "middle army" (1000 commanders) and the "first strike" (centurions), they vary according to the number of troops.
Duan Feiyan was the commander of the "Qingcheng Army" before he was demoted, but after his exile, the high-level of the Qingcheng Army was filled with troops all over the country, and ordinary soldiers were forced to be dismissed. The current defense work of Qingyu City was taken over by the "Zhenlongwei", one of the "Five Guards of the Forbidden Army".
Qingcheng joined the army, and the ultimate goal is to form an army of its own, so that it will have the right to speak, and at the same time, some things will be more convenient to operate. Therefore, he didn't plan to stay in the Wanli army for the rest of his life, so naturally he didn't take King Guhong's instructions to heart, but their attitude towards him disappointed him.
"The good minister chooses the wood to rest, the king of Guhong is not the master, it seems that he will have to find another place if he has the opportunity in the future. However, this time the matter of Haichuan must be grasped, at least to make a name in the army. ”
After dark, everyone rested. And Qingcheng thought about what had happened in the past few days, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't sleep, and after pondering for a while, he turned over and sat up, put on his coat and planned to go out to blow the wind. But to his surprise, as soon as he reached the door of the room, he saw a man with a lantern walking towards him. And when he saw the person who came, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, waved his hand at the person, and the two walked towards a secluded place.
After walking there, Qingcheng chuckled and clasped his hands into fists, and said to the man, "I've seen Mu Zhongzhen." ”
That's right, the person who came was Mu Huang. He was already angry, thinking of coming to Qingcheng to settle accounts, but he didn't want Qingcheng to tease him with this title, so he was even more angry, and snorted lightly at the moment, and scolded: "You are embarrassed to say, hmph, I shouldn't care about your nosy, just let that person insult you." It's good that you don't know what to do, and you cheated me. ”
Listening to his resentment sprinkled towards him, Qingcheng smiled helplessly and said: "Everyone is in the army, they are all begging to climb up, I gave you a middle battle for nothing, I didn't ask you for wine and food, you still blame me, what is the reason?" ”
Choked by Qingcheng's words, Mu Huang didn't think about what to do for a long time, and after a moment of silence, he had to explain: "I, I want to rely on my true skills, so I don't want you to give alms." ”
Knowing that Mu Huang had nothing to say, Qingcheng stopped teasing him and said, "Okay, I'll talk to you." Mu Zhongzhen, I know that you have no intention of starting a career, we don't need to say anything, just one point, marching and fighting is not fun, I advised you earlier that it is better to go home, why don't you listen? ”
Seeing that Qingcheng mentioned this matter, Mu Huang was even more angry, stretched out his hand to hit Qingcheng with a lantern, and said angrily: "What do you still say, I originally wanted to see if there were any fun people in this year's military exercise, and I might just leave when it was over, you might as well throw me such a ghost in the middle of the battle for nothing, how can I go." ”
Seeing that he was really angry, Qingcheng realized that he only cared about solving the siege, and did not consider his feelings at all, and apologized seriously at the moment, saying: "I really can't help myself, I only care about solving the siege for myself, I am sorry for you." Let's do it, let's go to Yang Zhongjun tomorrow to explain the situation, I will bear all the consequences, and return your freedom, do you think? ”
Listening to Qingcheng's serious apology, Mu Huang was still a little embarrassed for a while, and after a moment of silence, he waved his hand and said: "No need, if you come, you will be safe, since it's all like this, then I just think it's better to play for a few more days." ”
"It's really not a joke to march and fight, the slightest carelessness may be in danger of your life at any time, you still listen to me."
Listening to Qingcheng's tone was very resolute, Mu Huang smiled mysteriously and asked, "Do you care about me?" ”
Originally, it was very awkward to say this between two big men, but Qingcheng had already seen through Mu Huang's "true body", and when he asked again, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Miss, this is really not the place you should come to." ”
Mu Huang didn't seem to immediately react to Qingcheng's name for him, but he felt that Qingcheng didn't answer his question positively, so he felt a little angry, and snorted lightly: "To say that you don't know what is good is not to know what is good or bad, do you know, how ...... You're the eldest lady! ”
As he spoke, Mu Huang reacted, his emotions were extremely excited, and he seemed a little at a loss, like a child who had done something wrong and was caught by an adult. He hesitated for a long time and angrily rebuked: "How can you call someone like that! Are you insulting me because you're looking at me thin? Hmph, let me tell you, I, although I am relatively thin, but, but I am a serious man! ”
Listening to his words, Qingcheng suddenly felt amused, and hurriedly said, "Okay, let's leave this matter aside for the time being." Listen to me, and go home. ”
"I won't, if I really leave like this, you should laugh at me", saying this, Mu Huang snorted and continued: "Since you let me be this center, okay, you just wait to see how I clean you up." Let me tell you, I have already told Yang Zhongjun to bring you and your two house slaves under my command, and see how I treat you in the future. ”
Mu Huang's words seemed to touch on what Qingcheng cared about, he put away his smile and said solemnly: "First, my two brothers are not my house slaves; Second, I Duan Qingcheng joined the army to clear up the grievances of the family, glorify the ancestors, I have no time and no plan to play with you; Third, I still say the same thing, the eldest husband joined the army to defend the country and protect the territory, this is not a joke, if you want to play, go home and play by yourself! ”
Listening to Qingcheng's serious lesson, Mu Huang didn't seem to care, turned around with a chuckle, made a gesture to leave, and said at the same time: "I'm going to play, what can you do to me?" I'll also tell you that I've guaranteed you to be my first striker. So Duan Xianfa, start training for this middle formation from tomorrow, don't embarrass me. ”
Seeing that he still didn't care, Qingcheng was helpless, and only hated himself for not being impulsive. As for Mu Huang, he suddenly stopped after walking a few steps, and after a moment of silence, he didn't turn around, and said to himself: "I know how difficult it is for you to do something, and I also know why you came here." I can't help with your family's affairs, but at least I can let you show your ambitions in this Wanli army, which is why I want to protect you. In the future, my 1,000 men and horses will be under your control, and I don't know military affairs, so you can just have the final say. Okay, I can't say anything more now, good night. ”
After speaking, Mu Huang trotted all the way away. What Qingcheng didn't see was that after he finished saying those words, his cheeks seemed to be a little red, adding a smile to his face. As for Qingcheng, he stayed where he was, savoring Mu Huang's words for a long time, and he could hear that when Mu Huang said these words, there was no longer a joking tone......
