That night, the four of them temporarily camped at the post station, and Ling Feiyan naturally returned to his boudoir in the army. The five await tomorrow's specific allocation.

"Shaoning, why did you choose the Cold Knife? That Xia Duwei, I don't think he's a good person! Huo Qing asked with some puzzlement: "You see how he treated us today." ”

"That's what he did on purpose to show us," Shi Gong Zhengyuan on the side reminded.

"What do you mean? Are you saying that Xia Duwei did it on purpose? Huo Qing was very surprised.

"That's right!" Xuan Shaoning continued, "How do you think in the barracks can a lieutenant behave like this in front of the general? Although King Yu does have a reputation for giving preferential treatment to his subordinates, don't forget that he also has the reputation of an iron-blooded general, which shows that he governs the army strictly. ”

"In King Yu's opinion, it is not enough to just have the name of Qingshan Academy. Xia Duwei is deliberately embarrassing us, and his purpose is to let King Yu see what we are capable of? Duan Lang expressed his opinion.

"Duan Lang is right!" Shi Gong Zhengyuan looked at him affirmatively, "It is inconvenient for King Yu to say it directly, so he pretended to use the mouth of Xia Duwei to force us to show our skills." ”

"Our performance today is quite good, so King Yu also asked us to choose the four guards. But what if we don't perform as well as we should? Huo Qing's question was also asked by Xuan Shaoning and Shi Gong Zhengyuan.

Yes, if the performance is not as good as King Yu wants, what will be the result?

"Chengfeng, I have gone a little too far in today's matter, please forgive me!" In the inner courtyard of the General's Mansion, King Yu turned his back to Mo Chengfeng and suddenly said this.

"The general must have a reason for doing this. It is true that they are disciples of Castle Peak Academy, but not all disciples of Castle Peak Academy are capable of fighting with all the ministers. Mo Chengfeng was not surprised at all, but supported King Yu's approach.

"yes, it's like that guy ......"

"The general will not mention it again."

"Among the four of them, Shi Gong Zhengyuan has some city mansions. His last arrow could have been missed, but it was deliberately missed, so that Fang Qi had steps to go down and take care of our face. "It turns out that the clue of Shi Gong Zhengyuan's last arrow has been seen through by King Yu.

"That Xuan Shaoning, his speech and demeanor are faintly like everyone, although he didn't make a move, but I feel that his martial arts skills should not be under Shi Gong Zhengyuan." Mo Chengfeng seems to value Xuan Shaoning very much.

"Cheng Feng is right! Although Huo Qing's martial arts are good, some of them are brave and unstrategic; And that Duan Lang, there is a bit of an official flavor in his speech and demeanor, and he looks like he has some strategy, if these two people can use it properly, it can also help Xuanjia. Through today's competition, King Yu basically determined the personalities of the four people.

"But what I didn't expect was that Xuan Shaoning would choose the Cold Knife!" Mo Chengfeng was also a little strange for Xuan Shaoning's choice, "Xia Duwei was so difficult, but he didn't even scare him away?" ”

"That's why I said he's going to be a character in the future!" King Yu looked at a meteor across the sky and muttered, "I just hope I don't look away this time." ”

Mobei woke up very early, and Xuan Shaoning, who was still asleep, was woken up by the faint sound of drilling.

"Get up, all up, can't be late for the first day!" Xuan Shaoning, who opened his eyes, thought of today's events, and sat up like a spring, and while tidying up his clothes, he urged his companions loudly. However, Shi Gong Zhengyuan was already standing in the courtyard, and what he needed to urge was Huo Qing and Duan Lang who were still dreaming.

When the four of them walked out of the post station dressed properly, Mo Chengfeng and Ling Feiyan were already waiting outside the door.

"Senior Brother Mo? Are you waiting for us here? Duan Lang didn't expect that if it weren't for Xuan Shaoning's urging, they were afraid that they would have to make Mo Chengfeng wait longer.

Mo Chengfeng said with a smile: "I should have personally taken each of you into the barracks, but it's a pity that I lack skills, so I came to accompany Huo Qing this morning." ”

"Stay with me?" The sudden honor made Huo Qing's mind, which was originally a little confused, immediately clear.

"Is it because the three of us have already met the captain yesterday, but Huo Qing has not seen it?" Xuan Shaoning seems to think that this is a very reasonable explanation.

"You're right, I'm here to accompany Huo Qing to meet Commander Yuan." Mo Chengfeng's words were steady, but the appreciation in his eyes was not concealed at all.

"That'...... It's really Senior Brother Raumo," Huo Qing scratched his head and said.

"It's just my duty, Huo Qing and Scarlet Yan left with me. The three of you can go directly to each guard to find the captain by virtue of King Yu's dictation and self-declaration of identity. ”

The Rusty Guards and the Cold Blade Guards are both in the southern barracks, but in different camps. After separating from Shi Gong Zhengyuan, Xuan Shaoning and Duan Lang came to the gate of the Han Dao Guard, and the guards behind the door directly pointed out the location of the Du Wei's tent.

The captain's tent is different from the ordinary soldier's tent, but there is no more difference except that the color of the tent is slightly darker and the area is slightly larger. When they saw the two of them coming forward, the guards outside the tent did not stop them, but stretched out their hands to ask.

When the two opened the tent, they saw that there were already four people in the tent: Xia Junmao was standing in the center, and there were three people sitting on either side, all wearing armor. When the two approached the tent, they did not look at the body shape and appearance of the three people sitting in detail, but stared at Xia Junmao firmly.

"See Xia Duwei!" The two saluted at the same time, and it was a tie, and they had not yet become soldiers.

"You're polite, in the future, my door will be a brother of a guard, and the false courtesy will be waived!" Xia Junmao stood in place and did not move, his tone was flat, so that people could not see likes and dislikes, "You are proficient in the establishment of the Xuanjia Army, then do you know what the five schools under my Han Dao Guard are good at?" ”

"We really don't know these details!" Xuan Shaoning replied almost without thinking.

"One of my five schools is the most good at fighting, the most brave, and of course the most dangerous, I don't know if you want to pick one of my other four schools or dare to enter this most dangerous guard?"

Since Xuan Shaoning and Duan Lang entered the camp tent, Xia Junmao did not introduce the three people sitting on both sides at all, but talked to himself, and at the same time threw out such a dilemma. If you don't agree, you show your timidity; If you agree, since it is the most dangerous, it will be difficult in the future.

"You can think about it, and you are not in a hurry to reply to me" Seeing that the two of them were silent for a while, Xia Junmao was not in a hurry, but watched the changes in the faces of the two of them with great interest.

"Naturally, it is the school that Xia Duwei values the most, how can he be his choice?" Xuan Shaoning did not let the scene cold for a long time.

"You're a good man, what about you?" Xia Junmao turned to Duan Lang again and asked.

"Naturally, it is advancing and retreating with Shaoning!" Duan Lang replied loudly.

"Good! I'll just say it's right to find three of you today, how about it, have you seen it? Xia Junmao's words changed and turned directly towards the three people who were sitting.

"It is said that the disciples of Qingshan Academy have civil and military skills, and they are very courageous, when I saw it today, sure enough!" One of them stood up and said to the two people standing, his voice crisp and clean, not quite like a martial artist.

This person is much younger than Xia Junmao, and he is not much older than Xuan Shaoning, and there is a small scar on his left cheek, which extends from the bridge of his nose to his left ear, which can be regarded as adding insult to the face that was not handsome.

"This is Captain Lu Xianglu, he is the captain of the school you chose!" Xia Junmao introduced.

"Captain Lu, Xuan Shaoning in Xia!"

"In Xia Duan Lang, Captain Lu can rest assured, we will not damage your prestige!"

"Whatever you say, I'll introduce these two, and you will be included in their ranks." Lu Xiang said and was about to introduce the two people opposite him.

It turned out that I was going to the bottom of the wood! Xuan Shaoning had long expected that he was not afraid of becoming a small soldier, on the contrary, since he decided to join the army, he was secretly determined to start from the bottom and rely on his military merits to rise to the top. It's just such a simple matter to be assigned, but this Xia Junmao has to deliberately make it so complicated, and it is impossible to guess this person's intentions for a while.

"This is Song Mi, the commander of the Fourth Army!"

This Song Mi looks older than Lu Xiang, but it is a little surprising, he has a square face, small eyes, thick lips, and a simple appearance.

"This is Wei Xiaozhi, the captain of the seventh army!"

"Yesterday, I saw the skills of the two of you in the school martial arts field, which made Wei admire it very much! Whoever comes to me is a great honor! After speaking, he smiled slightly, this smile actually revealed the shallow dimples on both sides of his cheeks, and a pair of big eyes blinked like the warm spring sun, compared to Song Mi, who didn't say a word, this Wei Xiaozhi seemed easier to get along with.

"Captain Wei has won the award!" Duan Lang leaned forward slightly and bowed his head to Wei Xiao's chin.

Xuan Shaoning understood a little as soon as he saw Duan Lang's actions, and then he spoke: "Captain Xia, Captain Lu, Captain Song, and Captain Wei are all people with battlefield experience, and it will be of great benefit for us to follow any of them, since we want to choose, then Shaoning will come first." I choose Song Wuchang! ”

Song Mi didn't have too many expressions when he heard his name, just a large number of people in front of him who were more serious. And Duan Lang looked at Xuan Shaoning very gratefully, and the latter smiled brightly at him.

"Lu Xiang is the bravest of the five schools, and the two troops under him are the bravest of the brave, I will choose according to the two of you!" Xia Junmao's eyes were blazing when he looked at the two of them at this moment.

Because of the frequent wars in Mobei, the wartime work and rest system has always been maintained in Yecang City. All the soldiers in the barracks live in the tents, and from a distance, the southern barracks, the banner hunting, and the five-cornered company camp are very spectacular.

According to the establishment of the Liang army, ten people were a team, and the commander did not have special preferential treatment, but lived in a large camp with the remaining nine people. The tent conditions are also simple, there is a large bunk on each side, which can sleep five people respectively, and a large cabinet is placed in the innermost part of the tent door, divided into ten compartments, which is used to store personal belongings.

"Brothers, we have a new brother!" Walking into the camp, Song Mi said loudly, and everyone immediately stood up and set their eyes on this newcomer.

"Hello everyone, my name is Xuan Shaoning, I have just entered the military camp, I don't understand many things, and I ask you brothers to teach!" Xuan Shaoning lowered his posture very low.

"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say, you're here, and our team is also a full group!" A big man of the same size and age as Ling Tieying was the first to stand up and speak. However, there are only two similarities between him and Ling Tieying, the latter is already a centurion, and he is just a lowest-level soldier.

"Cao Tie, you have the loudest voice!" Song Mi reprimanded with a straight face, but this Cao Tie really obediently stepped back and stopped talking.

"Xiao Qiu can be regarded as a well-deserved death, killing three Xiliang soldiers." When Song Mi said this, Xuan Shaoning obviously saw that everyone's expressions had become gloomy, presumably this Xiao Qiu was originally one of the ten people.

"Brother Cao is magnificent, he must be a good hand on the battlefield!" Xuan Shaoning wanted to change the topic, but who knew that the result was counterproductive.

"What? He? Fight the enemy? ”

"Hahaha, you don't believe it!"

......

The gossip of these people was beyond Xuan Shaoning's expectations, and he saw Cao Tie blushing, lowering his head, rubbing his hands back and forth as if he had been wronged. This cold sword guard is the vanguard of the Xuanjia Army, and this team is the most powerful detachment in Xia Junmao's mouth, how can there be a character like Cao Tie?

"Brother Shaoning, the reason why Cao Tie did not kill a single enemy is because his duty is to lead the flag, whether it is a night raid or the handover of the two armies in close combat, we can't do without guidance, and Cao Tie is our guide, it is with his flag signal, we can grasp the overall situation and know how to advance and retreat." Song Mi also seemed to see Xuan Shaoning's doubts, so he explained.

I see, Xuan Shaoning nodded suddenly.

"This new brother, you really misunderstood, I am just an ironworker, don't look at my whole body of flesh, it was all practiced when I was iron-struck. Homicide....... I haven't done it, but I'm familiar with the flag! Cao Tie grinned, and the way he ate was really inconsistent with his body.

"To say that the most enemies among us are Xing Gang and Tao Sikun." Song Mi pointed to the two people closest to Xuan Shaoning, these two people seemed to be from peasant families, with red faces and thick hands and feet. Sure enough, ordinary people who were still from peasant families did not hesitate to die, Xuan Shaoning sighed secretly.

"This brother, Kun and I were at the sentry post yesterday, and we didn't get to see you in action. It's just listening to others, I'm regretting, I didn't expect you to come to us today, it seems that I have eyes! "Xing Gang is a typical farmer, and he speaks without bending.

"Yes, if you can, you can teach us two tricks, hehe!" Tao Sikun smiled innocently, revealing some dark teeth.

"It's all brothers in the same team, if you don't teach or not, you can talk to me at any time!" Xuan Shaoning understood that it was better to deal directly with these men who were rolling on the battlefield, after all, they were not as deep as King Yu and Xia Junmao.

"Refreshing! I just like you! "This time it was a big man who spoke, he was different from Cao Tie, although he was also a horizontal body, but his eyes were sharp, and there were a lot of calluses on his palms, although he was smiling, he could clearly feel the anger on his body.

This person must have been using heavy weapons for a long time, so he will leave so many calluses in his palms, his eyes are very murderous, it is estimated that he has been in the army for many years, and there should be a lot of killings, Xuan Shaoning only looked at it, and weighed it in his heart.

"Who is this?"

"My name is Qingcang, I have been in the army for seven years, and I am a reckless man!"

"Brother Qing!"

"I'll eat a few more years than you, I will accept this big brother, and fight side by side in the future, which will also open my eyes, we all eat with real skills!" Qing Cang's voice also perfectly matched his body.

Xuan Shaoning understands that the prestige in the military camp depends on military merits, and he didn't make a move yesterday, so that although these people are quite polite, they will still be a little dissatisfied in their hearts after all.

"Brother Qing is right!" Xuan Shaoning replied in the affirmative.

"Okay, the rest of the people, come out and talk for yourself." Song Mi seemed to feel that the process was a bit long, so he urged.

A lean man walked out, and at first glance, he felt like a monkey, with slender hands and feet, and a thin body. "I'm Lei Peng!" The name is very imposing, and it seems that this "person is as his name" is not necessarily.

"It's our turn, my name is Xie Yu. This is my brother, Xie Yi, both of us brothers are from Tuzhou, since Tuzhou was occupied by Xiliang, we joined the Xuanjia Army. "The two brothers look alike, and they have a different scholarly flavor compared to the others.

"Have you ever been in the academy?" Xuan Shaoning asked casually.

"Yes, we were originally brought literate by our family uncle, but unfortunately...... After the Xiliang soldiers came, the relatives in the family were slaughtered, and only the two of us escaped......" Xie Yi's eyes were full of pain when he talked about this past, his fists clenched tightly, and he hated the deep hatred of the extermination. I am afraid that there are many such people in Liang Kingdom, Xuan Shaoning can understand the pain of this pair of brothers.

"Then kill more enemies, and the general will definitely lead our Xuanjia Army to recover the lost territory in the future!" Song Mi walked up to the brothers and patted her shoulder hard.

"In the end, I'm the only one left, I don't have the kind of national hatred and family hatred of the two of them, I just admired the Xuanjia Army." This man should have just passed the weak crown, but Xuan Shaoning looked at him with a familiar feeling, who is it? Or is it like whom? That's right! Isn't it Ye Kai! This person has a ruffian taste very similar to Ye Kai. "My name is Meng Kebao, and I only came a year before you."

"Everyone knows each other, and from today onwards, we will train and fight together." After Song Mi finished speaking to everyone, he turned to Xuan Shaoning, "Your military uniform and saber are on your bed, go and try to fit." ”

"Yes, Captain!" Xuan Shaoning walked to his bed, and there were two knives next to a brand-new folded silver military uniform, one was a machete and the other was a knife, Xuan Shaoning picked up the two knives and looked at them.

"This broadsword is used to kill the enemy on the battlefield, the blade is thin, and the blade is sharp; And the knife is used for self-defense or sneak attacks. Our cold knife is not blindly brave and ruthless, nor do we only know how to charge, each of the ten people in the army has their own specific position, and there are tactical arrangements during the battle, which is a bit complicated to say, and in the future exercises, you will understand that with your intelligence, it must be absolutely not difficult to master. ”

"I'll learn by heart, Captain Wu!"
