With a strong supply of materials, coupled with Huang Wenqing's civil co-ordination, Di Zhixun propagandized in the name of defending the township and preventing the Turkic invasion, and Li Jiancheng's Hedong army was very smoothly recruited, and all counties in Hedong enthusiastically joined the army. He was proud to defend his family and country, and his family was exempted from paying taxes for two years. In recent years, the pressure of taxation and forced labor, coupled with the military disasters of infighting and foreign invasion, the life of the common people has been very hard, and human life is not worth anything in troubled times, and being a soldier is the best way out. If the ancestral grave is well buried, maybe an officer can be killed and the ancestors will be glorified. Every day, there is an endless stream of people who go to the gate of the barracks to join the army. Even with it, there are many ordinary people who go to the blacksmith shop to fight weapons.

"Hey! I said Wei Chigong, the weapon I wanted was obviously only three feet nine inches and weighed nine catties, but you gave me five feet four inches, weighing thirteen catties, and the shape had changed, this is how you did business with me?! ”

"I said dude! I, Wei Chi Gong, is for your own good, the weapon is an inch long and an inch strong, the heavier it is, the more lethal it is, if you don't thank me, forget it and say that I won't do business. You're talking like that! ”

"Alright! Since you say so, boss, I don't want this knife, you can return the money to me! ”

"Guest! Sir! Don't go! Ay! Wei Chi Gong! I said Wei Chigong, what is good for me to let me say about you! You can beat the guests as much as they want! You're always like this, how do I do business in this blacksmith shop! You'd better go! ”

"Boss, that person doesn't understand, don't you understand either? Whoever has my captain Chi Gong in this Hedong area can fight weapons, my captain Chi Gong admits the second, and who dares to admit the first. The blacksmith shop owner couldn't help it, so he took out a few taels of silver.

"Okay! Wei Chigong, my temple is small, and I can't afford to raise your big Buddha, so you should go to another place! ”

"Boss! You're crossing the river and demolishing the bridge! You know, since I came here, I've helped your business here get much better, you can't do this! ”

"Wei Chigong, you came to me for a lot of business, but the guests asked you to make big weapons, and you either changed their shape or changed their weight. My business has not been successful and I have wasted a lot of copper and iron raw materials, and I also have a wife and children to raise, so you better go! After speaking, he ignored Wei Chigong. Wei Chigong had no choice. I had no choice but to carry the broken silver in my arms and leave the blacksmith shop in discouragement.

"Hey! Fuck, I can't imagine that my Wei Chigong is a hero, but no one appreciates it. Wei Chigong was depressed, ordered a few dishes in a small hotel, asked for a pot of wine, and drank it. The little second brother of this shop is very familiar with Wei Chigong. While greeting guests, he persuaded on the side.

"Ugh! I'm talking about you! You've changed a few blacksmith shops here, why don't you know how to change your stinky temper. ”

"It's not that you don't know that the battlefield is very dangerous, and if you fight a little more weapons, you are responsible for their lives!" The shopkeeper knew Wei Chigong's temperament, and he didn't want to entangle with him more on this issue. Wei Chigong sighed while drinking, and there were more words:

"Hey! I think back then, the ancestors of my Wei Chi family were also the great generals of the Wei Chi State Mansion, if it wasn't for the defeat and death of the Shu State soldiers back then, I am now also a strong general on the battlefield, and I am used to fight here to be angry. Hearing Wei Chigong's words, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up:

"Hey! I said that you are so good at martial arts, why don't you go to the army! Now the Taiyuan Left-behind Mansion in Hedong has posted a notice, saying that now that the Central Plains is in turmoil, in order to protect the neighbors of Xiangzi Village and expand the military strength, those who are willing to serve in the army can bring their own weapons to report to the barracks. Since you are in the military, why don't you go to the barracks to join the army? And I heard that the recruiter is still my famous general of the Great Sui, Li Jiancheng, whom you admire the most, why don't you go to him. When Wei Chigong heard this, he was overjoyed. Directly put down the wine glass and ran, the hotel owner shouted behind him:

"Hey! The money hasn't been given yet! Fuck, Niu Er, that guy is your friend, and his drink money has to be deducted from your salary. Wei Chigong came to the blacksmith shop where he had worked. The blacksmith boss saw him as if he saw the plague god:

"Wei Chigong, what are you doing here?" Wei Chigong ignored him and went directly to the weapon rack and picked up a pair of double maces. Drop a piece of silver.

"Boss, I'm going to be a soldier, and I'm short of a worthy weapon, so this pair of double hammers is also shelved here, just sell it to me!" All I have is this bit of silver. ”

"Okay, take it if you like, I won't give it away." The blacksmith shop owner said angrily. Wei Chigong happily came to the place where Hedong recruited troops. A military Chinese book lazily registered.

"Name?"

"Wei Chigong!"

"How old!"

"Twenty-five!"

"What have you done before, have you ever been a soldier?"

"No, I've always been an ironworker. My big weapon is famous in Hedong. ”

"Ironbreaker!" The clerk raised his head and looked at Yu Chi Gong, who was a long Wu Da San, with a full beard and a dark body. I was very unhappy in my heart, in any era, the face is the first, and said impatiently:

"Oh! Got it! Since you know how to strike iron, go to the fire camp and burn the fire! ”

"I 。。。。。。"

"What do you want, do you want to do it, you don't want to do it, some people do it." Wei Chigong still wanted to plead, but the people behind him were already impatient to wait.

"Hey! I said you big black guy don't hurry up, Lao Tzu still has to register! ”

"You don't fucking leave quickly, I don't think you're qualified to be a firehead, you should go pick up the dung." Wei Chigong was on fire in his heart, and it was not easy to have a seizure, so he had to enter the fire head camp in disgrace. In the firehead camp, most people bullied him as a newcomer, and reprimanded him from time to time:

"Hey! Big black one, is the fire burned well! ”

"I'm not called Big Black, I'm called 。。。。。。"

"Call your mother big, you look so dark, do you still wronged you by calling you a big black man? Is the fire burning, and we are waiting to boil the water? ”

"Good! Good right away. Wei Chigong said angrily.

"Alright, hurry up! We're going to fetch water for the general now, you stay here well, and when we come back, we will bring food to the general, and after we finish the meal, we will boil the bath water for the general, and then cook and eat, and you will watch the fire here. With that, the firehead sergeants took the food boxes and left. The anger in Wei Chigong's heart was difficult to suppress. At this moment, the smell of food wafted into his nose.

'Hmmm! Braised pork, steamed fish, delicious meals! Smelling the aroma of the food, Wei Chigong's stomach gurgled. 'I'm hungry! 'Reason and hunger have been fighting. Forget it, no matter. Let's talk about eating first. Thinking of this, Wei Chigong walked directly to the table, ate the food directly, burped, sat lazily on the chair, closed his eyes and recuperated. In the dream, he dreamed that he had become a great general, and the few fireheads who bullied him pinched his feet and hammered the back for him:

"General, are you comfortable? General, don't focus on it again! ”

"Hmmm! Not bad, very comfortable, a few of you have filial piety, this general will promote you well in the future, do a good job! ”

"Yes!" Suddenly, someone kicked him in the leg.

"Bastard, I see you're not just a big black man, you're also a wild boar, you know? These meals are for our generals, and besides, the boss didn't eat first, so you started first, come on! Tie this ** to the flagpole and let him know some rules. Hearing the boss's order, the two fireheads came up and grabbed Wei Chigong's shoulders to drag him down from the chair, who knew that it was like taking root.

"Fucking rubbish, a few more people, move his legs!" There were two people who went up to move Wei Chigong's legs, and Wei Chigong shouted:

"Everyone's tired! Take a break! With a direct flick of his hands and feet, the four fireheads were thrown out, and the leader of the firehead army was frightened and shouted:

"Someone is rebelling, come on! Come on! The shouts of the head of the fire army alarmed many people in the barracks, even Li Yuanji was also alarmed, it happened that Li Jiancheng was not in the camp these days, and Li Yuanji also wanted to show himself in front of Li Jiancheng, so he led a large team of men and horses to intercept at the gate of the camp:

"Big black man, so unruly, come on, take him down for me!" The soldier behind Li Yuanji picked up his knife and gun and beckoned to Wei Chigong, who didn't care and directly clenched his hands into fists:

"Come on! Lao Tzu has had enough of your anger these days, so I will use you to practice your fists and feet today. Hi! Wei Chigong's fists were like lightning, dozens of soldiers were beaten by Wei Chigong and spit blood, one of them was trampled under the feet of Wei Chigong, Li Yuanji saw him so brave that his legs trembled uncontrollably, standing behind the guard:

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Take him down for me! The soldiers around Wei Chigong looked at the murderous aura emanating from Wei Chigong's body, and they were ordered by Li Yuanji behind him, and they couldn't advance or retreat one by one. Wei Chigong saw it in his eyes:

"Humph! surnamed Li, don't be embarrassed for them anymore, Lao Tzu can leave if he wants to, and you can't stop it. After speaking, he continued to walk towards the camp gate, and under the flagpole, he saw the handsome flag of Li Zi fluttering in the wind, and directly raised his foot to kick the flagpole off, took the handsome flag in his hand, and lightly made the internal force, and the flag became a strip of cloth.

"Li Jiancheng, I, Wei Chi Gong, must use your blood to wash away my shame in this life." Li Jiancheng was not in the barracks because he had something to do at the time, and after returning to the barracks after being busy, he heard that Li Yuanji was frightened and dozens of soldiers were seriously injured, and then came to the military tent where Li Yuanji was resting:

"Big brother, you're here, I'm scared to death today." After listening to Li Yuanji's description, and asking about the situation of the people around him at that time, especially when he found the name of Wei Chigong in the military Chinese book, Li Jiancheng only sighed in his heart.

"Yuan Ji, why didn't you calm down at that time, such a fierce general was a godsend to our army, but you lost a general because you didn't check for a while! You...... ”

"Big brother, I 。。。。。。。" Li Yuanji has been spoiled by Li Jiancheng since he was a child, and when he heard Li Jiancheng criticize him, he felt very aggrieved, he never understood that the big black man would leave when he left, was he still afraid that he would not succeed.

Seeing Li Yuanji's aggrieved appearance, Li Jiancheng knew that Li Yuanji's education since childhood determined that he was a person who judged people by his appearance. 'Yuanji! You've laid a curse for yourself and me! But Li Jiancheng, who has doted on him since he was a child, still didn't say what was in his heart.
