Chapter 100: Son, I am willing to serve in the army on behalf of my father

Xia Chang saw the situation in front of him, looked at Cao You and the others again, and saw that they also knelt down, and he knew what he should do in his heart. Immediately, everyone heard Xia Chang's words: "Where is Peng Feng, the right general of Xingshen?" ”

"The minister is here!"

"From now on, you will be crowned the governor of Yongliang, leading 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Jizhou garrison, and 100,000 troops of Yongliang Erzhou, and sending troops to Xiliangguan, so that the enemy must be outside the country!"

"Chen Pengfeng, obey the order!"

"Decree, order the Eight Sages King to train the capital for the Yongliang New Army, the military household will be built, and if there is a man between the ages of sixteen and fifty in the family, one will be transferred to join the army immediately."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

When the decree issued by Jizhou arrived in the counties of Yongliang and Erzhou, it was already the beginning of August. Xining Town received the decree from above on August 10 at the latest.

"It's been more than a month since Xirong called, and the order has only been issued now, I'm afraid it's a little late, right?"

At this time, in Liangzhou, the soldiers of Xiliangguan had been fighting fiercely with Xirong's army for more than a month. This situation is known to all parts of Liangzhou.

Xining Town is relatively close to Xiliangguan, and now in the city, it is already ten rooms and nine empty. The originally bustling streets are hardly crowded with pedestrians.

Xicheng Erbao, the official messenger came to the Qin family.

"By the emperor's edict, the military household will be built, and one person will be released! Commander of soldiers and horses in Xining Town: Xicheng Erbao Qin family, a man, on August 15 of the first year of Jianwu, went to Ningde Camp to report! ”

"The grass people take the order!"

After sending the official away, Qin Buxian's face became sad.

At this time, Qin Jia and Qin Yi were both at home, and they also saw the scene just now. As people who have read books, they understand what such a command means.

A soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty. As a military household, his duty is to protect his family and defend the country. There is an order, and it must be obeyed, which is the truest portrayal of Qin Buharm now.

"Father's ......"

"Fix your armor, fix your knives and guns, feed your horses, and set off tomorrow!"

Qin Buxiao coughed, his slightly sad expression revealing perseverance. He is in his forties and is in the prime of life, but the years of working in the fields have made him show the characteristics of an old man: white sideburns and wrinkles all over the palms......

"No, father, you can't go!"

Qin Jia saw that Qin Buxian was about to go to the inner room, and immediately stopped in front of him.

"You're in your forties, and if you go on a campaign, you'll die on the battlefield! Or let the child, instead of you go to the Ningde camp? ”

"Forty years of life is enough!" Qin Buxian's hand trembled a little, he also understood what would happen to the middle-aged man's body on the battlefield, "This is the duty of the military household, you are all young, it is the future of this family, my old man is one, and he will die when he dies, but there is nothing to be nostalgic for!" ”

"Father, big brother, you two don't fight." When the two were arguing, Qin Yi stopped in front of the two, "plopped-" knelt on the ground, clasped his hands into fists, "Son, I wish to serve in the army on behalf of my father!" ”

"Zhong Yi, you are now a student of the county school, and the matter of our family's glorious lintel will be handed over to you. As for joining the army, you must not do it! Enlistment in the army, what is that? That's a matter of playing with your life on the tip of the knife, you said that if you have three long and two short, won't it ruin the hope of my Qin family? ”

Qin Buxian's words were extremely serious, as if he was telling Qin Yi something. Qin Yi listened to it, and naturally understood Qin Buxian's intentions. However, after all, he has the idea of a soldier in his heart, and at this time, it is an excellent opportunity for the military household to return to the establishment and join the army.

What's more, the road to the imperial examination is too long, and joining the army to defeat the enemy is easy to accumulate enough military merits to become the confidence for future promotion.

This was an opportunity, and Qin Yi felt that he should seize it.

"My father is too old, and if he joins the army, if he goes to the battlefield, he will definitely die; The eldest brother Bo Jia, who was injured a while ago, is not in good health, not to mention, he is also the main worker in the family, so it is better not to go to the battlefield. ”

"The most important thing is that my father and mother, I have been adopted for seventeen years, and this time I will join the army on my father's behalf to repay the kindness of my parenting!"

"Zhong Yi ......"

Qin Buxian heard Qin Yi say this, and his words were a little choked. What Qin Yi said made him Qin harmless, and he couldn't even refuse.

"What's more, the imperial examination was postponed due to the national funeral, and there was exactly a year for me to experience in the military camp. After having the experience, it will be of great help to study in the county school, state school and even Taixue in the future! ”

Qin Yi finally said what was in his heart, and he still knew a lot about some things on the road to the imperial examination.

In fact, the road to the imperial examination is not all about literature, and a large proportion of it is about military talent. After all, the imperial examination is an examination for the selection of talents, not only political talents, but also military talents.

In the words of Qin Yi's previous life, the imperial examination here attaches equal importance to civil and military affairs. For example, after the county school, the seven unique generals will be taught, and the examination of military capabilities will be gradually increased, and even when the conditions are ripe, students will be sent to the army for training.

It was precisely because of this consideration that Qin Yi decided to join the army on behalf of his father. In essence, he also wants to repay the Qin family for raising him.

"Second brother, don't fight! Although you are not born to your father, in his heart, he has already regarded you as his own son. What's more, if you die on the battlefield, wouldn't you have to leave regrets? Moreover, Wei Zijin of the family next door, but your childhood sweetheart, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about her! If she knew that you had joined the army, wouldn't she have cried? ”

Qin Jia slowly helped Qin Yi up, and also persuaded. In his eyes, Qin Yi was no different from his own brother.

"Big brother, you don't have to say it. Father, this matter is settled! However, Qin Yi still insisted, "Besides, it's just a report from the Daoningde camp, and it may not really go to the battlefield." There are still hundreds of thousands of troops in Xiliangguan! ”

When Qin Buxian heard this, his face showed a little helplessness, and he waved his hand and said, "That's it!" Tomorrow I will send you out of the city, your character is relatively strong, remember that there is no need for the outside world in the barracks, everything must be careful. ”

Hearing Qin Buxian say this, Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was warm. Although he was not biological, he could see that when Qin Buxi said these words, his words were still full of worry.

"This matter, I'll talk to Sister Zijin again in the evening, I guess she can understand me!"
