Chapter Twenty-Six: Another Change
Wang Dang was momentarily shocked by Yu Hua's bold words, and wanted to reprimand but was speechless. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info had to persuade with good words: "Commanders, military officials and other big officials, those are all in the pockets of the wealthy masters, how can you be a peasant boy who wants to be it." If there is no noble person to help you, I am afraid that you will be hopeless for life, will you never marry? ”
Yu Hua shouted: "Isn't the noble man still a benevolent father?" I fought bravely under the command of Engong, and Engong was promoted to a general, and I will naturally become a general and a military candidate because of my merits. ”
Hearing this, Qiu Yi couldn't help but cough a few times in a low voice, and his face was a little feverish. Compared with the expectations of the half-sized child Yuhua, his own ambition is too low. is just thinking about how to get rid of the name of the son-in-law, and there is not much pursuit. I'm not as good as Yu Hua.
Wang Dang persuaded a few words, but Yu Hua just didn't listen, and Wang Dang had to shout angrily: "There is a law in the court, and you are not allowed to enlist in the army if you are not eighteen years old." You give me an honest stay at home and marry. When you are eighteen years old, you will serve in the army. ”
Yu Hua still replied stubbornly: "I don't want to marry, I'm going to enlist in the army now, uncle, if you don't agree, I'll sneak away by myself." ”
Qiu Yi was very embarrassed when he saw it, and came to summon Wang Dang this time, but he didn't want to attract the two uncles and nephews who were close to father and son, and caused a conflict. Just as he was about to get up and persuade him, Cheng Qi smiled on the side: "You kid, your hair hasn't grown yet, but you want to enlist in the army?" Do you have the strength to wear armor? Can you swing a knife and stab a spear? ”
Yu Hua said angrily: "Those who are powerful and unskilled are just bears and tiger beasts, and I will kill as many powerful and ignorant stupid people as you come." ”
Cheng Qi was also angry, got up and rubbed his fists and asked, "Oh, Lao Tzu doesn't believe you, let's try it and see how you kill me." ”
Cheng Qi is tall and strong, with strong muscles, and has a lot of pressure on the half-sized children who have not yet grown up, Yu Hua saw it and retreated again and again, and shouted to himself: "Engong once taught me archery, I have practiced hard for many years, and I can hit nine times out of ten." Let me bring my bow and see if I can shoot you. ”
Cheng Qi said with a smile: "On the battlefield, whether it is a sword, spear, sword, halberd, or fists, feet, teeth, and body, where you can't kill, who will wait for you to take a bow to fight." Boy, I'm coming. ”
Qiu Yi hurriedly stopped Cheng Qi and said, "Although Yu Hua is young, he has great ambitions, far better than those who do nothing like me. It is imperative not to dampen his enthusiasm. ”
He also said to Wang Dang: "Uncle Wang, in my opinion, Yu Hua has the ambition to marry Miss Qianjin, which is a good thing." However, if I want to marry a young lady, joining the army is also a way out. Anyway, I summoned you to join the army because I fancy your bow-making skills, but I don't want you to go into battle to rush and kill, and there will not be much danger. If you let Yu Hua also enlist in the army, you can be a personal soldier in my account, so that you can know a little more about the military affairs in the army. When he becomes an adult, whether he is a pawn or an officer, he can adapt faster. ”
Wang Dang saw that he couldn't make sense, sighed for a long time, and had no choice but to agree. The five stayed overnight in Wangzhuang, and got up early the next morning to return to the barracks. Yu Lu Yuhua showed Qiu Yi his archery skills that he had practiced hard for more than a year, holding Wang Dang's special bow, and he could really hit nine out of ten shots within 100 steps. Although he only shoots at fixed targets, he has only been practicing for more than a year, and he has such archery skills, which is already extremely talented.
Qiu Yi nodded again and again when he saw it, and said, "With such archery skills as you, you can already be called a fine archer." I'll teach you a few tricks when I get back, so that you can use the bow as a weapon, either near or far. He makes his bow swifter and faster than others, so that he may not be afraid of others. ”
Yu Hua glanced at Cheng Qi and exclaimed excitedly: "That's a good feeling, thank you so much." ”
Qiu Yi asked about the time of Wang Dang's special bow, and Wang Dang said: "When the six materials are taken, they must be used, and the six materials are gathered, and skilled craftsmen are still needed." Therefore, it is not possible to reduce man-hours. ”
And further explained: the requirements for the material of bow making are very strict, and there are detailed regulations on the specific process steps. Analyze the bow trunk in winter, treat the horns in the spring, treat the tendons in the summer, and close the timber in the autumn. In the cold winter, the bow arm is placed in the bow box to be shaped, and the appearance is repaired in the severe winter and extreme cold. In the spring, the bowstring is worn and stored for another year before it can be used. If the above complicated process is followed, it will take at least two to three years.
If there are several craftsmen working in the bow workshop at the same time, the preparation work can be staggered, and there may be a lot of finished products each year, but in the case of a bow, the man-hours cannot be shortened.
The reason why Qiu Yi made a bow in a few months was mainly because the materials were prepared early, and Wang Dang just assembled them and made improvements so that Qiu Yi could also pull them apart.
After Qiu Yi heard about it, he knew that the volunteers would not need the bow developed by Wang Dang in a short period of time. When the king came, he could only temporarily serve as an ordinary archer in the army, maintaining and repairing the common bows of the army. When you have time, you can think of teaching a few apprentices to lay the foundation for bow making in the army in the future.
In the afternoon, as soon as Qiu Yi and the others returned to the vicinity of the camp, they saw that the camp had nearly doubled, thinking that the county lieutenant Ye Hua had sent out the 800 soldiers under his command and incorporated them into the camp of the volunteers.
Qiu Yi couldn't help but feel upset for a while, most of these 800 soldiers were mainly thieves from various townships and pavilions, and they were brave in the townships of the five soldiers, and the day of becoming an army was earlier than that of the volunteers. Because its officers are the children of various wealthy families in the county, although their combat power is strong, their military discipline is not strict. A month ago, I often heard that there were cases of stealing chickens and touching dogs and molesting women and children. Compared with the original army, which was mainly composed of servants from the two families of Qiu and Zhu, it was more complicated.
And the soldiers have always been bloody and brave, nothing can happen, and they have not been in the camp for nearly a day, and I don't know if there is anything else happening in the song? I hope that this song will not make trouble with his soldiers.
As soon as they reached the gate of the back camp, the four guards at the gate of the camp immediately raised their spears and swords and shouted: "Those who come stop or they will be killed." ”
Cheng Qi was furious, stepped forward and scolded: "Blind your dog's eyes, the army is waiting to return to the camp, don't open the door quickly." ”
One of the four guards stood up and said, "I don't know what kind of bullshit you are, leave quickly, or the bow and arrow will wait." After saying that, two longbows poked out from the arrow towers on both sides of the camp gate.
Qiu Yi was taken aback, and looked at it, only to find that the four guards did not know the archers on the arrow tower, and they were not the guards who had already guarded Qu. Is it so difficult that the guards of the guards have been replaced in just one day?
Cheng Qi didn't seem to notice the abnormality, and scolded himself, and was ready to step forward and pull the antlers. The soldier guarding the door was furious, and with a wave of his left hand, two bowstrings sounded, and two flying arrows shot at the unsuspecting Cheng Qi.
Qiu Yi was startled, turned around, and hurriedly took the longbow and arrow from the quiver of the Yuhua bow box, copied it in his hand, and shot two arrows with the bow in one go, and the general shot down two flying arrows in front of the door of Chengqi. Cheng Qi was startled, turned into a thunderous rage, and immediately pulled out the ring head knife and was about to charge over the antlers.
Qiu Yi hurriedly shouted: "Come back, how can the barracks be allowed to break in!" Cheng Qi slashed hatefully and turned around with a scolding.
The soldiers and archers guarding the door thought that they were shocked by Qiu Yi's shooting skills of arrows falling two arrows, and they didn't send arrows again to stop Cheng Qi for a while. Cheng Qi scolded and said: "What kind of bastard thing is it, I don't even know Lao Tzu, I will definitely want them to look good when I return to the camp." ”
Lu Ping scolded back: "I can't even recognize people with such big bull's eyes, those people are not our soldiers." ”
Cheng Qi asked hesitantly: "Aren't the Houying Gate guarded by our Qu soldiers, and who are they?" ”
Lu Ping didn't answer, frowned and said to Qiu Yi: "Master, the guard has changed, why don't we enter the door from the front camp." That's Young Master Zhu's subordinate, Young Master Zhu is a military horse, I guess no one can touch him. ”
Qiu Yi nodded and said, "Well, go to the front door." ”
A few people turned to the front camp gate, and across the camp fence on the road, they saw a 400 soldiers on the left wing of the new arrival, chaotic and chaotic, and more disorderly than the soldiers under Zhu Mian's command, who were mainly light and evil. Seeing this, Qiu Yi frowned.
At the front camp gate, Qiu Yi and others entered smoothly, and when they passed by the Central Guard Army, they were suddenly stopped by a pawn, saying that Qiu Rui had been waiting in the tent for a long time, and asked Qiu Yi to go to Qiu Rui's tent to meet.
Qiu Yi had no choice but to suppress his thoughts and transfer to the big tent of the Central Protector Military Department. Just walked into Qiu Rui's tent, I saw Qiu Rui and Zhu Mian sitting in the first place, and several military candidates and generals under the command of the two were among them, and even the Gao District, Qiu Gong, and Qiu Hui, who were guarded by the guard Qu, were also sitting at the door of the tent.
When Qiu Rui saw Qiu Yi coming, he hurriedly stood up and greeted him, and said, "Big brother, you came back just in time, I just finished discussing the matter, and I just want to talk to you." ”
Qiu Yi stood in the tent, bowed his hand slightly to everyone seated, and responded, "Oh? I don't know what's going on? ”
Qiu Rui said with some annoyance: "Yesterday, the county jun just promised Ye County Lieutenant that Ye Cun would serve as the rear army of the army, and Ye Cun went to the army yesterday afternoon to take a look, and immediately annexed the guard Qu with the soldiers of the left and right wings of the new arrival early this morning. ”
"Huh?" Qiu Yi was stunned, "Annexation? What does that mean? ”
Zhu Mian said angrily: "What else can it mean, that is, all the officers related to the guard Qu and Zhu Qiu families were singled out and driven away, and the soldiers were all scattered among their eight hundred people. ”
"Is that okay?" Qiu Yi's mind exploded, and it was all messed up. Fang Cai has been thinking about it, and the guard has changed, thinking that it is the new rear army Sima Yecun who did it. I thought that Ye Cun just wanted to give himself a dismount, but he didn't expect to annex the guard Qu.
Qiu Yi asked, "What about the county gentleman?" Does the county gentleman care? ”
Zhu Mian was so angry that he was speechless, and Qiu Rui had no choice but to explain: "I once went to Gong Xianjun, and when Gong Xianjun first heard about it, he was also furious, and went to find Ye Xianwei. But after returning, he repeatedly persuaded me. And promise that the same thing will never happen, but the matter of the defender Qu can only be left like this. ”
