Driven by curiosity, Wu Junzhen wanted to walk over to have a look, but was stopped by Ma Wei, and asked, "Brother Wu, where are you going?" Wu Junzhen pointed to the iron rod in the hands of the Ming soldiers and said, "Brother Ma, look at what is this?" ”

This made Ma Wei feel particularly embarrassed, he thought to himself; I almost forgot that he was a Song man and didn't understand the Ming Dynasty firecracker! But it was inconvenient to tell him, so he had to say perfunctorily: "Let's go!" Later, Lord Xiaoqi will let us know. Wu Junzhen felt that he was also reluctant to walk away.

When he came to the Wei command post, the small banner of the Ming Dynasty saluted and said, "The last general will see the prefect and the governor." Wu Junzhen and Ma Wei, who were next to him, also saluted together, and saw the governor of Shaanxi in the Ming Dynasty wearing a bowl and feathers on his head: Sun Chuanting, who was sitting in the lobby talking with the prefect of Xi'an in the Ming Dynasty, and when he saw his men saluting the governor of Ming Shaanxi, he asked the three of them to get up.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty Yi Xiaoqi asked the Ming Xi'an prefect to issue armor, and the Ming Xi'an prefect put down the teacup and said, "Then the governor, I will talk about this today, and the lower officials will retire first." After speaking, he took the three of them to turn around and leave together, and when Ma Wei left, he glanced back at the governor of Ming Shaanxi, and sighed in his heart; It is worthy of a generation of loyal ministers and good generals of the Ming Empire! It's really domineering.

Under the leadership of the prefect of Ming Xi'an, the three of them came to the warehouse, and the prefect of Ming Xi'an asked the guards to take out two sets of cloth armor, two flying saucer hats, and two lancets from the warehouse and hand them over, and issued two tokens of the guards to them.

Wu Junzhen looked at the brand-new blue riveted cloth face armor, they liked it very much, and immediately said goodbye to the Ming Xi'an prefect, and went to the barracks to change the armor, Wu Junzhen, who wore the cloth face armor, put on a flying saucer hat after walking out, and was very handsome, with a lancet, he had a bit of the demeanor of a military general, and Ma Wei was different because his hair had not grown!

Therefore, after putting on a flying saucer hat and wearing a cloth face armor, it looks very ordinary, but Ma Wei couldn't help but praise when he looked at the handsome Wu Junzhen and said, "Oops! Brother Wu still looks good in this armor, I'm really ugly! ”

At this moment, Ming Xiaoqi walked into the camp tent and said, "Hurry up and come out to teach you training." They tidied up their helmets and walked out, came to the school field and saw many soldiers around them were practicing exercises, Ming Dynasty Yi Xiaoqi took them to a wooden stake and said, "The recruits on the battlefield pay attention to not being afraid of death, have perseverance, dare to charge and kill the enemy, today you need to practice how to charge quickly?" ”

But the two of them thought it was nonsense, and after introducing the recruits, Xiaoqi held the handle of the knife in his left hand and ordered, "Ben will count to three, you must rush from this stake to the hillside in front, and you must come back immediately within a cup of tea." ”

So they began to pull out their sabers and shouted "charge" Wu Junzhen and Ma Wei quickly ran towards the hillside within a mile (about 600 meters), at first the two of them were full of physical strength and rushed directly to 200 meters away, but then Ma Wei's physical strength was a little exhausted! But at the moment, I am training, and if I want to maintain enough physical strength, I can do a long march without being weak.

Therefore, both of them persevered, the more Ma Wei ran, the more he felt a stomachache, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he slowed down, Wu Junzhen saw this and hurriedly comforted: "Brother Ma is holding on for a while, and he will go to the hillside to come on!" ”

In this way, under the encouragement of Wu Junzhen, Ma Weiqiang endured his stomach ache and ran to the hillside and kicked angrily, even Wu Junzhen, a person who had practiced martial arts, felt a little tired after not running for a long time, and the two continued to run back after resting for a while.

Immediately, the two returned to the stake within the specified time, but they were tired enough, Wu Junzhen was fortunately because he had practiced, and Ma Wei was different and his face was flushed! Ming Dynasty Yi Xiaoqi looked at the two of them and said, "Well, the first exercise is barely passed, look at your appearance, let's start with the infantry!" ”

Then Ming Dynasty Yi Xiaoqi let them practice wrestling, which is a necessary skill for infantry, after all, it is necessary to slash during close combat, and wrestling can trip the enemy in order to have a chance to slash the enemy.

So he brought them to compete with some of the pioneer soldiers in the battalion, Wu Junzhen looked at the soldiers next to him, he thought that this problem was not big, but for Ma Wei, a person who was powerless, it was difficult to go to the sky! He was timid on the spot, and pleaded with Xiaoqi in the Ming Dynasty, "That Xiaoqi adult, can you not practice this wrestling?" How do you see me practicing my sword? ”

As soon as these words came out, they were immediately refuted by Ming Dynasty Yi Xiaoqi, who scolded: "You are so cowardly, how can you go into battle and kill the enemy?" Who knew that Ma Wei said, "Lord Qiqi, the small one will make the fire gun, please allow the small one to be divided into the fire gun team?" Ming Xiaoqi laughed three times, thinking that he was bragging.

The soldier next to him also felt that it was impossible for the recruit to know how to shoot, but Ma Wei knelt down and insisted on joining the firecracker team.

In desperation, Ming Xiaoqi immediately ordered the soldiers, and casually took a rod (Five Thunder God Guns) and handed it to Ma Wei, Wu Junzhen looked at this black iron rod? Then he asked, "Lord Xiaoqi, what is this?" Ming Dynasty Yi Xiaoqi glanced at him, then shook his head and said, "Hey! A recruit is a recruit! Haven't seen a firebolt before? This is the Five Thunder God Guns. ”

And Wu Junzhen listened to it (Five Thunder God Gun)? Thought; What is it? What does it do? Is it used to beat the enemy? At this time, Ma Wei picked up the five thunder god guns and looked at them carefully, checked the powder room and the position of the trigger respectively to confirm that there was no problem, and then agreed to load and shoot.

In order to combat the arrogance and unruliness of the recruits, Xiaoqi of the Ming Dynasty asked people to bring up a bag of gunpowder, and pointed to the target in the distance next to him and said, "You have five rounds of ammunition, as long as you hit the bull's-eye three rounds, you will be considered to pass, and the general will let you join the firecracker team." ”

After hearing the request, Ma Wei adjusted his mentality, and visually measured that the bullseye was about 100 meters away. He began to fill the mouth of the gun with five coins of gunpowder, and stuffed five wires of fire until it reached the powder room at the end of the gun.

Then he raised the five thunder god guns to aim at the bullseye in the distance, and pulled the trigger (bang, bang, bang, bang, bang) with the white smoke to shoot the lead bullet near the bull's-eye, Wu Junzhen next to him heard this sound, he felt as if he had heard it somewhere? He thought to himself; Isn't this the sound of the bandits coming from when they ambushed them before?

At this moment, Ming Xiaoqi hurriedly asked the soldiers to go over to check the target, and the soldiers ran over to check it and found that they had been hit by three shots, but one of them was outside the bull's-eye! The soldiers hurriedly came over to report the situation, and Ming Xiaoqi looked at Ma Wei with a loud laugh, then walked over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Continue practicing tomorrow!" Don't think about it. ”

The lost Ma Wei froze in place, while Wu Junzhen walked over and asked, "Brother Ma, that iron rod just now, oh not the fire gun, looks like it has great lethality!" I want to try it too? ”

But Ma Wei seemed to look at him expressionlessly, and suddenly a soldier came over and said, "Lord Xiaoqi, I have prepared a place to live, please come with me!" Wu Junzhen picked up Ma Wei and followed the soldiers to the camp, because they were newly recruited, so they slept in the same camp with the rest of the recruits.

This group of recruits are all old slippery heads, and they took away all the mattresses and quilts that were originally given to Wu Junzhen and them, leaving only some tattered old bedding for them, Wu Junzhen saw that the bedding on their beds was different from others? I feel that something is wrong, and I am looking at other people's eyes.

Immediately, Wu Junzhen's anger came up, but he still couldn't help but go to bed and prepare to rest, but a few recruits saw that they were unhappy, so they secretly squeezed over and let people sleep on their beds, and threw their quilts aside, and said with a wicked smile, "I'm sorry!" This bed is sleepy, please go and sleep on the bed over there! ”

A few of the recruits on the left bed said, "Oh! That's a table for things! How can you sleep? Hehehe. ”

Wu Junzhen, who was ridiculed by everyone, couldn't bear it anymore, he reached out and grabbed one of the spoof recruits, fell to the ground and stepped on his body and punched him twice in the face, the two recruits behind him pounced and grabbed Wu Junzhen's neck, and the other three recruits were ready to lock his hands and feet.

However, Wu Junzhen's ears were very smart, he turned around and grabbed the hand of the person behind him, twisted it and pressed it to the ground and kicked another recruit away, and then jumped behind the three recruits with a flying flip, and picked up the hands and feet of the middle recruit and raised it above his head, this scene shocked the recruits!

However, he was also inspected by the general banner of Mingguan Mountain: Shi Jinian, who inspected the camp, saw them fighting and shouted, "What are you doing here?" Wu Junzhen, who learned that he was in trouble, hurriedly put down the recruits.

When these five troublemakers and Wu Junzhen were taken away and taken out of the camp, Ma Wei kept pleading but to no avail! For this reason, he also alarmed the governor of Shaanxi in the Ming Dynasty, who was passing by the tent.

He has always been serious in the military, naturally he can't tolerate some people in the army to make trouble and fight, so he ordered each person to hit 20 big boards, and deducted this month's salary once, the soldiers pressed them to the ground and beat them with wooden boards, and the recruits who were punished for making trouble were also honest, and the skin and flesh of the beatings were opened one by one, and even Wu Junzhen suffered a lot.

After returning to the camp, they shook hands and said that they didn't dare to make trouble, first, they obeyed Wu Junzhen's skills, and second, they were afraid of the criminal law in the army.
