Zhao Jun's plan to join the army finally told Zhao Ling again, of course, Zhao Ling has always been dominated by Zhao Jun, and he did not object after hearing it.

For most of the next half a month, Zhao Jun has been recuperating in the hospital, studying the art of war with Cao Wuxian in his spare time, and teaching him the art of flying knives, while Zhao Ling has been practicing Xingyi Boxing.

Shang Kun is also literate, but he has no interest in the art of war, usually drinking next to him or bragging about his experience in the Northern Army. However, Zhao Jun showed a few hands of kung fu and grappling hands in Xingyi Boxing, and he was very interested and practiced very diligently.

And through Shang Kun's mouth, he also had a preliminary understanding of the situation of the frontier army.

Now the frontier army of the Great Qin Empire is the southern army that wants to conquer South Vietnam.

and in Henan, that is, at the Great Wall northeast of Xianyang, the 300,000 troops stationed against the Xiongnu, led by Meng Tian, commonly known as the Northern Army.

Due to the initial determination of the Great Qin Empire, riots often occurred in the homeland of the Six Kingdoms, so the shortage of troops was very serious.

Especially when the Northern Army is outside the Great Wall, it is very difficult to replenish, let alone recruit troops. Although there are 300,000 people, after several wars, the actual shortfall is more than 30,000. Therefore, outside the customs, Meng Tian often recruited some border bandits or exiles without household registration to join the army.

Zhao Jun wants to join the army, as long as he succeeds in the place, he can join the army even if he has no household registration, and he can join the auxiliary army at the worst, and then when there is a gap in the main army, he can supplement it, get out of the identity of the auxiliary army, and it is not difficult to make meritorious contributions and want to clear his name.

From this, Zhao Jun also learned why Shang Kun left from the border army.

It stands to reason that he joined the army as an Iron Eagle swordsman, and he is a centurion at a young age, and his future prospects are very broad.

However, Shang Kun applied for retirement and returned home a long time ago. He's an Iron Eagle swordsman, and he has removed his labor, so it's easy to leave.

Knowing the reason, Zhao Jun was a little surprised and admired. The reason is that when Shang Kun was proud, he got the news that his mother was critically ill. When he found out, he didn't think about it, and immediately applied for retirement, left the army, and rushed back to see his mother for the last time.

Originally, after he had been filial piety for three years, he could apply to join the army, but unfortunately the time had changed, and it was very troublesome to do, and he offended the people in the army back then, so he could only be depressed, and he had been nesting here and being a ferryman.

To filial piety, this is another evaluation of Shang Kun by Zhao Jun.

On this day, Zhao Jun still set off.

He didn't want to delay too long, and he didn't have much confidence in three years to make a great achievement, clear his name, remove his labor, and return to his hometown.

As Shang Kun said, it is easy to clear the charge for meritorious service, but it takes a lot of merit to remove the labor without changing the title, and it is even more difficult to return to the hometown.

Therefore, he must fight for time and race against time, not only for the agreement with Lu Pheasant, but also for the sake of self-protection before the arrival of the troubled times, so that he can ride the wind and waves and prevail in the troubled times.

In the early morning of this day, Shang Kun set up a small boat in the reed shed, sent Zhao Jun and the three of them across the river, and officially set foot on the land of Xiangxian County.

Shang Kun stood at the bow of the boat and said to Zhao Jun on the road: "Ah Jun, take care." You must be careful of the county lieutenant of Xiang County, these days I am ferrying at the ferry, and I have heard about the situation there, and the investigation is very strict, you must be careful. ”

"Brother Shang, don't worry, you should also take care, if I succeed in the army in the future, I will definitely let Brother Shang re-enlist." Zhao Jun opened his mouth and solemnly promised.

Shang Kun's heart warmed, although he was bold, but he was not ignorant of human accidents, Zhao Jun could sense the bitterness in his heart, and bluntly said to help, obviously recognizing him as a big brother.

"Haha, Brother Jun is too polite.

In Yes, although General Meng Tian of the Northern Army loves the soldiers and cherishes the people, he governs the army fairly. However, there are complex factions in the Northern Army, the war is ruthless, and there are deaths every day, so you must be careful. ”

In the end, Shang Kun put away his smile, solemnly reminded, and then handed out a small bamboo slip and said: "I was also a centurion when I was a life and death robe, if I am not dead now, I should be able to help you, his name is Wang Tong." Here's a book I wrote that might help you. ”

After Zhao Jun heard this, he didn't refuse, and accepted it. It's just that in my heart, I have deepened my vigilance against Xiangxian's itinerary, and it is obvious that the county lieutenant of Xiangxian County has not let go of the search for himself these days.

As for the cruelty and danger of the Northern Army, he didn't think much about it. It's not that he's careless, but now, he doesn't know if he can reach the Northern Army smoothly, and it's useless to think more.

Cao Wuxian laughed at this time: "Brother Kun is interesting enough, you just wait for me to return to my hometown, and then I will promote you to be a general, haha!" ”

"You kid has such a big heart." Shang Kun couldn't help despising it, but he still smiled: "Then I'll wait for you to come back, if you die, Lao Tzu will go to your grave every day to brag and drink, so that you won't be in peace if you die." ”

Cao Wuxian pretended to be pale, took three steps back, and said quite exaggeratedly: "Oh, Brother Kun, I'm afraid of you." Don't worry, with your words, I don't dare to die. ”

"Haha, you kid." One sentence caused several people to laugh, and the sadness of parting was also diluted a lot.

Zhao Ling finally said to Shang Kun: "Brother Shang, go back." We will come to see you in the future, so take care. ”

Shang Kun grinned and said, "Okay, Sister Ling'er, take care, I want to try your craftsmanship in the future, it's just a delicacy in the world." ”

Zhao Ling blinked with a pair of clear eyes, nodded and said seriously: "I will." ”

This fashion Kun said to Zhao Jun again: "Ah Jun, as for your tattoo, I don't know what it means.

I have only seen it in a Western Qin person, but his status is quite high, I didn't dare to ask, seeing that your body is also very similar to the old Qin people, you can inquire when you go to the border army in the future. ”

The tattoo Shang Kun mentioned is the tattoo on Zhao Jun's body that he has always been puzzled about. According to Shang Kun, this pattern is similar to the traditional tattoos on the ordinary old Qin people, but there are differences.

As for the Western Qin people, they are the most descendant and ancient branch of the old Qin people, and they are the descendants of the Qin people in the era of horse herding. Now, there are only a very small number of Qin people, and all of them are people in power among the Qin people.

Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this, his life experience was too confusing, and he had no clue at all, so he could only follow fate.

"Take care, Brother Shang." In the end, Zhao Jun set off with the three of them.

Shang Kun looked at the backs of the three people who were far away, waved his hand on the bow of the boat and said loudly: "Be careful all the way, I'll wait for you to come back." ”

The figure remained motionless on the board for a long time, and Shang Kun didn't want to withdraw his gaze until the figures of the three disappeared from sight.

In the distance, Cao Wuxian was vaguely heard shouting and singing: "All the way north, if you don't succeed, you won't return it"

The trips of the three were neither slow nor fast, just on foot, walking among the countryside.

It's just that they soon found out that something was wrong, and the intersections were strictly checked, and there were officials patrolling key places.

In desperation, the three of them didn't even dare to walk the right way, so they could only walk from the wilderness. They didn't dare to get close to the village and the people in the village. Because, the pavilion chiefs of each pavilion also take the villagers to wander around the villages and fields from time to time, and they will be recognized if they are not careful, after all, they are fresh faces.

It's just that since then, the situation of several people has been miserable, and they can only catch shrimp and fish for food, but fortunately, there are also Zhao Jun's copper nails, and they can shoot some wild things to barely satisfy their stomachs.

At night, you can only find a cave or simply level the ground, and sleep with the sky as the seat and the earth as the seat, even if you light a fire, you can't avoid the cold entering the body.

When it is windy and rainy, it is even more unlucky. In the past few days, the three of them have been tortured and emaciated, and their spirits are obviously low. His clothes were also torn in a few places, and his hair was scattered, as if he was a wild man in the mountains.

On this day, the three of them happened to come to a dense jungle.

And Zhao Ling, who was walking next to him, suddenly fainted and was about to fall, startling Zhao Jun and Cao Wuxian.

"Ling'er" Zhao Jun was quick-eyed, supported Zhao Ling, and shook twice.

Zhao Ling's face was pale, he barely opened his eyes and closed them, and muttered in a daze.

Cao Wuxian exclaimed: "Sister Ling'er, what's wrong with you?" Boss, Ling'er, what's going on? ”

Zhao Jun tried Zhao Ling's forehead and breath, shook his head and said, "The wind and cold are invading, and the evil qi is too strong." ”

Obviously, Zhao Ling's cold qi entered his body, coupled with the fact that he was in a hurry during the day, and his physical strength was overdrawn due to poor eating and sleeping, and his blood qi was insufficient.

Zhao Jun and Cao Wuxian are physically strong and fine, but Zhao Ling has only been practicing Xingyi Quan for a year, and his qi has not yet developed and his blood is not strong, after all, he is a woman, and it is reasonable to faint.

Although wind chill is not a serious disease, in this era, the medical conditions are extremely weak, and if you don't take medicine in time, you may die.

Looking at Zhao Ling's miserable face and his increasingly weak aura, both of them were anxious in their hearts, but there were too many chasing soldiers in the vicinity to search for the officials.

Cao Wuxian pondered for a moment, suddenly looked at Zhao Jun, and said, "Boss, you wait for me in this forest, and I'll go to the village to find an old doctor to come." ”

Zhao Jun's heart moved at this time, pondered a little, but shook his head and said: "No, it's too dangerous to enter the village during the day, so it's better to wait until after dark." ”

"Okay." Cao Wuxian thought about it, and only nodded, it was too dangerous to go now, anyway, it was about to get dark.

In the end, the two of them used the clay pot they carried with them to find wild ginger slices in the woods, boiled ginger soup, and gave it to Zhao Ling.

It's just that the three of them can't continue to walk at this time, so they can only hide in the woods, resting and recovering their strength, while waiting for it to get dark and go to Zhuangzi to find a doctor.

Zhao Jun frowned and pondered, in fact, it was only relatively safe when it was dark, Xiangxian County was the seat of the Surabaya County Government, and he naturally had an unshirkable responsibility for what happened in Pei County.

In addition, the county lieutenant has a close relationship with the county order killed by Zhao Jun, and the search for the two will definitely not stop at the daytime, and Cao Wuxian went to find a doctor, which is an adventure in itself.

However, this is also a helpless move, Zhao Ling's illness can't be delayed for too long.
