I remember that day when the sun was shining, I heard that the Taishou was going to choose the personal guard, and the age was still limited to under thirty years old, and the young soldiers of each battalion were eager to try. After all, if you can become a Taishou guard, you can receive more money per month than being an ordinary soldier in the barracks, and in the event of a war, the security will be much better than charging in the army.

So all the awesome lads stood up straight, and their eyes were looking at me expectantly. I also try to choose some of the more physically fit ones they look like on the surface, and none of them I have chosen are not ecstatic. But when I got to the sixth battalion, I saw a burly and slightly dark guy shrinking in the back row, and deliberately bowing his head, as if he was afraid of being chosen by me.

I couldn't help but wonder and thought, "Oh my boy, what's the point?" He was asked to come out for questioning, and the rest of the soldiers looked at him with envy, but he was very reluctant, and I asked him to raise his head, and he looked very unhappy.

I asked him, "What's your name?" ”

He whispered, "My name is Zheng Liang." ”

I said to him: "I see that everyone is very eager to try when I choose people, for fear that they will not be selected, why do you have such good conditions to shrink back, why?" Are you so afraid of being chosen by me? ”

Zheng Liang's face showed a difficult color, and he looked like he wanted to say something. Gong Zhi beside me couldn't stand it anymore, and reprimanded him: "Taishou asked you something!" Answer quickly! ”

Zheng Liang saw that he couldn't drag it out, and the embarrassed look on his face became heavier, and he reluctantly said to me: "Lord Taishou, you should choose someone else!" A small untouchable, I can't serve you. ”

But the more he did this, the more I wondered why, and told him that if he couldn't explain it, he would have to come with me today.

I saw him gritting his teeth and raising his head as if he had made a lot of determination, and said to me loudly: "Zheng Liang wants to stay in the barracks and become a leader in the future with his military merits, and in the future, he will capture the flag and stand alone!" Taishou you just want to find a guard of honor, the kind of work that accompanies you to play in the mountains and rivers, you can only waste my body, and I Zheng Liang is unwilling to live or die! ”

"Presumptuous!" Before I could react, Gong Zhi next to me was already furious: "Someone! Drag these guilty guys down and beat me up! ”

Gong Zhi's entourage guards came to frame Zheng Liang, and Zheng Liang subconsciously resisted, and suddenly broke free from two big men who came to press his movements.

Seeing this, Gong Zhi was even more angry, and shouted: "Dare to resist!" Are you going to rebel? ”

As Gong Zhi's words fell, two more people came up, a total of four people to press Zheng Liang. After Zheng Liang listened to Gong Zhi's words, after all, he was in the barracks, and he didn't dare to continue to resist, so he was tied up by two big men behind him and dragged down alive.

Generally, cane punishment is to be carried out outside the military gate, I actually think that Zheng Liang's physical condition is good, and although I came to the camp to select people in the name of the escort team, this is all to cover people's eyes. In fact, these 100 people are the backbone of my future army, and these people must be young, have potential, and be absolutely loyal to me. Although what Zheng Liang said just now sounded a big rebellion to Gong Zhi, it really hit my heart.

But I don't want to intercede for Zheng Liang now, I also want to see if he can give in to the power, if he begs for mercy after a few beatings, I will look down on him and abandon him.

The sticks used for cane punishment in the barracks are very thick, and with my small body, it is estimated that I will be half-defeated after three or five strokes. This Zheng Liang was pressed there and tied to the shelf with a rope, like a tiger tied up by a hunter, with no strength but no way to break free.

The big man in charge of the execution was not polite, picked up the stick and began to beat. This cane punishment has spanking, there are back, like Zheng Liang, who is tied to the rack, is generally beaten on the lower side of the back, close to the buttocks but not yet to the buttocks.

After a few sticks, the back of Zheng Liang bloomed, and Qing'er couldn't bear to watch it beside me, so she hid behind me and secretly pulled my sleeve.

I saw that although Zheng Liang was beaten and screamed, he didn't mean to beg for mercy, so I felt that it was okay, after all, I wanted him to be my person in the future, so I couldn't be too ruthless at this time.

Thinking of this, I ordered him to stop, walked up to him and said to him word by word: "If you don't want to follow me, I want you to follow me, if you dare to escape from my guard, I will destroy your whole clan if I catch you!" ”

I saw a hint of fear in Zheng Liang's eyes when he heard the word "whole clan", so I waved his hand to let him go and follow the other soldiers I had chosen to the next barracks.

Since then, even if my 100-member personal guard team has been established, I have served as the captain, and Zheng Liang has also promoted him to a level compared to when he was a soldier, and made him the captain of a ten-person team. He is only eighteen years old this year, although he is "older" than me, but he is still young after all, although he has been beaten a few canes and I have been taken out of the barracks alive, but after all, he can have nine subordinates to listen to his orders, which can be regarded as the first step to become a general, so although he is still more depressed when he travels with me, there is no great dissatisfaction.

Back to the present. The banquet for the three generals was over, and Zhang Fei, who was a little drunk, went to rest, leaving Ma Liang and Gong Zhi to check the situation of the money, food, military and horses in the county.

Gong Zhi thought that I was going to ask Ma Liang about the current situation of my husband, so he took his leave and left first. Ma Liang was a little confused, and when he sat down in my room, I said, "I don't know what position Brother Ling has in the official residence under the lord's account now?" ”

Ma Liang was stunned, and I said directly: "I'm talking about Ma Yan, Ma Youchang." ”

Ma Liang said: "My brother is young, and he doesn't have any official position, in fact, now he is just helping me sort out some paperwork and study affairs!" ”

I heard that Ma Jian really hadn't been reused, and I couldn't help but be happy: "There is a reluctant request below." ”

Ma Liang asked, "What is the Taishou asking for?" ”

I said to Ma Liang: "The lord allows me to guard here, although everything is decided by Gong Zhi, but the things in my house are also quite enough for me to have a headache, since the young Chang has not been reused, it is better for you to tell the lord to let him come to me to be the master bookkeeper, take care of everything for me, and usually exchange some knowledge and the art of war or something." ”

Being able to be the master of a county is actually a very high status, Ma Liang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard it, and said busily when he heard me say this: "Thanks to the wrong love, this is very good for the younger brother, but the younger brother usually thinks too highly of himself and refuses to be down-to-earth, for fear that he will cause you trouble after he comes." ”

"Don't worry, I'm here, I treat him like a brother, Song'er is still young, as long as he is willing to help me with his heart, I will be compatible with many things!" I saw that Ma Liang had already agreed in his words, so I hurriedly made a wish.

So the matter was settled, after Ma Liang went back, he said to Liu Bei, maybe Liu Bei didn't like Ma Tan always appeared in front of him, so he made a favor, and wrote a document ordering Ma Tan to be my master book, and asked him to bring him to Wuling to belong to me.

I know that although this Ma Tan is a bit on paper, and many years later, he ruined Zhuge Liang's major affairs because he couldn't defend the street pavilion, but this can only show that he is not a good commander, and judging from the advice he put forward when Mr. was on the southern expedition, he should be a good staff officer.

Of course, I can be the commander myself in the future, and having such a guy around me who can come up with ideas should be of great help to my future development!

I was full of joy in Wuling City waiting for Ma Jian to report, but I didn't expect that Ma Jian hadn't come yet, but the urgent document arrived first. Gong Zhi summoned the military generals in the county, and handed over the documents to me to see, it turned out that the barbarians in the county had friction when trading with the Han people, and the barbarian leader let his son and daughter lead the troops to break the Qianling County, and now the Youyang County is surrounded by regiments, and the soldiers in Youyang County are only hundreds, and it is estimated that they will not last long.

As soon as I heard about the barbarians, I thought of Shamoke, who had helped Liu Bei in the war in Yiling, and now Gong Zhi said that it was the son of the barbarian leader who led the troops, and it was speculated from his age that it would be him? But how did she take the lead, and the daughter of the barbarian leader?

I'm used to seeing Han women, and I really want to see how hot girls from ethnic minorities can be, and if I can capture a few, hehe, it will be even more interesting.

And how did the civil officials and generals in the hall know that I am still thinking about this, and they all looked at me with a bad smile when they saw me in a daze.
