Chapter 74: Feather Forest Orphans
In the middle of the night, when Wei Qing and Ruoyao were about to rest, Luo Shan rushed back from Longxi County.
The first batch of 37 orphan sergeants recruited by the Yulin Army will arrive in Chang'an tomorrow.
Ruoyao suddenly had a feeling of being in a hurry.
It's not just the ancient emperors who are just taking care of everything, and there are many small things in the office.
Tomorrow, the Xishan Battalion Tiger Ben Army War Horse Selection, the army purge started, Liu Che summoned .......
Seeing Wei Qing's solemn face, and Mrs. Shen urging Wei Qing to pay attention to rest over and over again, Ruoyao stepped forward and said, "General, do you think it's okay to do this?" You go to the Tiger Army tomorrow, and the last general will go to the Yulin Army for you. ”
"You're on the side?" Wei Qing's brows tightened, the Yulin Army was also built by Liu Che by name, is it inappropriate if the first batch of sergeants enter the camp and don't go?
Ruoyao smiled and said: "Don't worry, Ruoyao is your lieutenant general, you can completely entrust it, besides, you are not going for leisure, the Tiger Ben Cavalry Corps, the key to the war horse, so you go to the Tiger Ben Army." ”
"Okay, it's decided, leave the matter of the start of the purge to Song Yujun, and let him set a timetable as soon as possible." After Wei Qing finished speaking, he walked towards the hall without looking back, although he was in the mansion all day, it was the first time to see a few sons.
But as soon as he walked out of the ten meters, Wei Qing stood on his feet and turned to look at Ruoyao and said, "By the way, let's take a look at the disease." ”
……
The next day, Ruoyao came to the Yulin military camp early in the morning.
It was no longer as deserted as before, and the slogans of the sergeants who had been exercising in the morning were sonorously passing through the training ground.
The eight to fifteen-year-old Scouts led by Huo Quzhi and Hou Dan are undergoing physical training.
"Sister, sister." Huo Qu got up and ran to Ruoyao: "Why are you here today?" ”
Ruoyao was very happy to see Huo Quai: "What's the matter, can't my sister come to see you?" ”
"Really!" Huo Quzhi seemed to care about this matter, and his face was full of surprise.
Ruoyao suddenly felt that he shouldn't lie to him, because Huo was already lacking love, which was not good: "Silly, I heard that General Luo recruited a group of recruits to join the army, and your uncle couldn't be busy, so I came over to take a look, of course, by the way, look at you, hehe." ”
Looking at Ruoyao's sun-like smile, Huo Quzhi's heart warmed: "When will my uncle come over?" ”
"I don't know." Ruoyao shook his head and said, "However, if you study and practice well, he will make a special trip to see you, and you can be received by the future general, but it is the highest honor." Ruoyao was naughty.
"General!" Huo Quai's eyes are straight, and it is also his dream to gallop across the field.
Ruoyao suddenly felt that she shouldn't reveal this information first, and it would be terrible if it spread once it spread: "Hehe, no, it's the general who galloped Mobei and fought the Huns." ”
Huo Quzhi jumped back after hearing this, and a strong man said: "Look, I practice hard every day, and in the future, I will also gallop with my uncle, so that the Hu people will tremble when they hear the words Han people." ”
Ruoyao looked at Huo Quzhi's innocent smile and firm expression, and muttered, "Don't worry, there will be a day when the entire battlefield will be your world." ”
"A must!" Huo Quzhi clenched his fists and swore an oath.
After being excited for a while, Huo Quzhi remembered Wei Ling, this guy didn't pit himself less when he was in Wei Mansion: "Sister, what has Wei Yan been doing lately?" I haven't seen him in a long time. ”
Ruoyao smiled and said, "You still care about him, Brother Gongzi, why do you care about him?" Madame loves like a treasure. ”
"Hey, it's not all the way." Huo Quzhi shook his head and sighed and asked: "By the way, how is the matter of the incense building, I heard from the people of Weiyang Palace that Your Majesty seems to be angry about this matter, and this credit is mine." ”
"Han Anguo is doing it, and I heard that more than 100 people have been arrested, and many senior officials in the DPRK and China are also involved." Ruoyao said softly.
Huo Quzhi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Another group of unlucky ghosts!" ”
Then
Ruoyao watched and guided Huo Qubing in the training ground, and they practiced some swordsmanship moves.
The sword is the first weapon of the Yulin Army, followed by the bow, crossbow, spear, and so on.
The nature of the Yulin Army determines his requirements, people must be loyal, and weapons must be proficient.
An hour later,
Luo Shan and the sergeants escorted several carriages into from outside.
And a few nurses who were waiting in the training ground just now also quickly surrounded them.
"General Luo!" Ruoyao was the first to step forward and greet: "It's been hard all the way." ”
Luo Shan didn't have a right hand, which was a little inconvenient, so he simply nodded and said, "If the girl is hard, this is the first batch of thirty-seven orphans I recruited from Longxi County." After speaking, he looked at the carriage that slowly stopped and continued: "Some are children of good families who voluntarily sacrifice to the imperial court, and some are orphans on the border. ”
"Wang Qilin, when will they arrive?" Ruoyao remembered that there seemed to be a few people who went out to collect.
Luo Shan frowned and thought for a while: "Yes, it should be able to arrive this month." ”
"Good work." Ruoyao took a step forward and watched a wet nurse take out a three-year-old child from the carriage, and after a long journey, the child seemed to be tired and slept soundly.
Ruoyao took it over and looked at it carefully, the boy, judging from the fabric of the clothes he was wearing, should be a child from a big family: "This should be a child of a family." ”
Luo Shan stepped forward and said, "Oh, this is the descendant of the Li family in Longxi. ”
Ruoyao remembered that the Li clan in Longxi was also very famous in history, and some of Liu Che's Qimen army was selected from the children of good families in the Longxi area, and Longxi became the output point of the main forces of the imperial court.
Looking at the child in her arms yawning, Ruoyao asked, "How old are you going to raise them?" ”
The nurse said: "General Hui, five years old, five years old is the starting point of the period gate army." ”
"It's no longer the period gate army, it's called the Yulin army." Luo Shan corrected.
The nurse replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, the slave is wrong, it's Yulin Jun." ”
Looking at these children from three to eight years old, Ruoyao has an indescribable sense of bitterness, their lives are destined to be miserable, and their lives are destined to be machines, but they are fortunate that they have integrated into this extraordinary era, and their lives will support the rise of the entire era, and the Yulin Army will definitely leave a strong mark in history.
"Uncle Luo, Uncle Luo." Seeing this, Huo Quzhi ran over from a distance.
Luo Shan touched Huo Quai's head with his left hand and said with a smile: "Yo, I haven't grown taller for a few days." ”
"A must." Huo Quzhi stepped forward to watch after speaking.
Ruoyao smiled and said, "Go to the sick, you have to take good care of these little brothers in the future." ”
"No problem." Huo Quzhi said excitedly: "I will be their boss and ensure that all of them are trained to become tigers." ”
Because they were the first batch of children from Yulin Army, Ruoyao and Luo Shan did not dare to slack off, registered and made a register, and Ruoyao had to screen everyone's basic information one by one and then report to Wei Qing.
