"Hmph, spare you!"

The black-helmet general sneered, and he said in a deep voice: "Before you join my Great Zhou Army, you have learned to cut in line, if you are allowed to join our Great Zhou Army, won't it ruin the reputation of my Great Zhou Army!" ”

After speaking, he turned his head and shouted: "Come on, drag these scoundrels out and give them twenty whips before driving them out, and write down their names, and never hire them in the future!" ”

"Yes!"

More than a dozen sergeants immediately came out of the side, and they strode up to these homeless people, grabbed them like wolves and dragged them to the side, and soon the sound of leather whips and screams rang out one after another.

After disposing of these homeless bullies, the general moved his gaze to Pi Erdan, "What's your name?" Where are you from? Why did you come here to be a soldier? ”

A series of questions made Pi Erdan a little dizzy, and Pi Erdan was stunned for a while before replying: "Master Qiyu, the little one's name is Pi Erdan, a native of Xuan County, Hubei, because the villain heard that after joining the Great Zhou Army, he could be fed and clothed, and he no longer had to go hungry, so he specially came to Wuchang from Xuan County to serve as a soldier." ”

Listening to Pi Erdan's words, the eyes of the homeless people next to him also showed a look of approval, Confucianism has penetrated into all corners of society for thousands of years, and the words "a good man is not a soldier and a good iron is not a nail" is also deeply imprinted in their thoughts. In addition, after all, the Great Zhou Army has just occupied Hubei, and the ruling foundation is still relatively weak, and the people here are not as supportive of Pang Gang as the civilians in Shandong.

Therefore, the general was not angry when he heard this, but laughed, he nodded approvingly, and said to Pi Erdan: "This official is only able to see that you are not afraid in the face of more than ten scoundrels, and you are also quite bold, and now I ask you, are you willing to follow this official as this official's personal soldier?" ”

"Pro-soldiers?"

The homeless people next to him all showed envious expressions, being a general's personal soldier was a beautiful difference, not only was the danger greatly reduced, but the treatment was naturally first-class.

"I don't want to!" Pi Erdan's head shook like a rattle, "The villain wants to be a cavalryman, riding a high-headed horse to kill the enemy, that's what a man should do, what's the meaning of being a guard behind the official all day long." ”

"Bold!"

As soon as Pi Erdan's words came out, several pro-soldiers around this general were all angry, this kid's mouth was really damaged, and he devalued all their people in one sentence.

"Hahahaha"

A loud laugh rang out from the side, and a middle-aged official about forty years old, with a long beard under his chin, and a somewhat thin face, walked from not far away, the general was wearing a vermilion official robe, and a white peacock was painted on the mend of the official robe.

Although Pi Erdan couldn't understand the rank of this official, he saw that including the majestic general just now, was saluting that official, and he knew that this official must be a big official, so he also spontaneously knelt down and saluted this official.

I saw that the official laughed at the general of Shicai: "General Hei, it seems that you are really not good as your own soldier, and you can't even look down on a new egg who hasn't been a soldier yet." ”

This general is Hei Tie, although he was rejected by Pi Erdan, but to this day, with his dignified guerrilla general prestige status, he will not lose his temper with Pi Erdan, he just smiled bitterly: "Governor Hua, even you make fun of the last general." Since this little brother is unwilling, the last general can't force it, everything is as fate would be. ”

Seeing that this general was so generous, the skin on the side was a little embarrassed, he felt that a general in the house looked up to him so much, but he rejected the other party's kindness, and he was embarrassed to say to Heitie: "This general, it's not that the villain doesn't know how to lift, but the villain."

"Yes, you don't have to say it." Hei Tie interrupted Pi Erdan's words, "To tell the truth, this is going to be spread five years ago, and I have to give you a good look if you lose my face like this." But a few years ago, someone was beaten by the prince for this reason, and since then Lao Tzu has understood one thing, it turns out that the most valuable thing in this world is face, and the most worthless thing is also this thing, the difference is only whether others give you this face. Hehe, since you have this big ambition, Lao Tzu also stops you, you go and sign up! ”

After speaking, the black iron handle waved, and the pro-soldiers next to him also began to drive everyone away, and the homeless people began to line up in an orderly manner to prepare to sign up.

At this time, Hua Yan looked at Hei Tie and said with a smile: "General Hei, okay, I didn't expect you to have such an understanding, which makes this official very impressed." ”

Hei Tie couldn't help laughing, "The perception of fart, this is still made by the prince with his fists." ”

Regarding the fact that he was beaten by Pang Gang for stealing military merits in his early years, Hei Tie did not hide it from anyone, but said it from time to time to show off to everyone to show off his unusual relationship with Pang Gang in the past.

Hua Yan also knew this, he just smiled and said: "General Hei, as of today, the recruitment task of our recruits is almost over, and the rest is the training of recruits, but the prince only gave us four months, and we will officially become an army in four months, I don't know if you have any way?" ”

As soon as it came to business, Hei Tie also became serious, and he said coldly: "There is only one way to lead these homeless people to become elite soldiers as soon as possible, and that is to let them see blood." ”

"Blood?" Hua Yan couldn't help frowning, "You mean to let them participate in the actual battle, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" ”

"Why not?" Hei Tie said nonchalantly: "We soldiers eat this bowl of rice, if you don't even dare to kill the enemy, you can go home and hold the child as soon as possible!" I think that when the prince first became a hundred households, he didn't pull those recruits out to suppress the bandits after training for two months, I promise, as long as they saw blood once, they would all become pure masters! ”

"This"

Hua Yan asked with some hesitation: "General Hei, are you going to let the recruits go out to suppress the bandits?" ”

"Hehe, Huada people really love to laugh." Hei Tie laughed: "Now we don't have bandits in Hubei, all the bandits have followed the thieves to Shaanxi, and we can only go to Xuan County and the surrounding area to train our troops." ”

"Xuan County?" Hua Yan was taken aback, and he asked with some concern, "Do you mean that you want to fight the thieves?" Aren't you afraid of causing a backlash from the thieves? ”

"Bounce?" Hei Tie sneered: "Won't they come to fight us if we don't fight the thieves?" If it weren't for our small number of soldiers, Lao Tzu would have beaten his mother a long time ago, how could they be so arrogant! ”

Huayan was silent, the Great Zhou occupied more and more places, but their troops were a little unable to keep up, on the surface it was said that there were 100,000 troops, but it was very pitiful to spread to the five provinces, the total strength of Hubei was only two battalions of 10,000 horses, not only to guard against Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan, Li Zicheng in Shaanxi, but also to guard against the Ming army in Anhui, it was polite to describe it as not making ends meet, Heitie had long had a great opinion on this, and asked Pang Gang several times to send additional troops and horses, but all of them were refused, and now I see Pang Gang expanding the army again, How can there be any reason to be unhappy?

Looking at the homeless people in front of them who were standing aside and waiting after passing the inspection, their faces were both happy and with a hint of trepidation and worry about the future, Hua Yan sighed and said, "Xing, the people are bitter; Death, the people suffer! ”

Just when Pang Gang was busy expanding his armaments, Li Zicheng was not idle, with the help of Li Yan, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others, he was also actively training his army of more than 100,000 people, originally Liu Fangliang led the left battalion tens of thousands of horses have been completely annihilated by the Great Zhou army in Hubei, he rebuilt it, appointed Li Dingguo as the general of the left battalion, responsible for commanding everything in the left battalion.

Today, Li Zicheng is a little unusual, early in the morning he led Li Yan, Li Guo, Li Dingguo and other generals to the west of Xi'an ten miles away, as if waiting to greet someone.

But it wasn't until noon, when everyone's stomachs were rumbling with hunger, that a cloud of dust and smoke appeared in front of them.

"It's coming, King Chuang, Mr. Liu, they're here."

Li Zicheng's righteous son Li Shuangxi pointed to the dust and smoke in front of him and shouted happily, and he was very excited at this moment.

Li Zicheng, who was in a very happy mood, smiled and patted Li Shuangxi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, such a big smoke and dust can even be seen by the blind, and you are still needed." ”

"Hahaha" everyone laughed.

Niu Jinxing and others all knew the reason why Li Zicheng was in a happy mood, Liu Zongmin's trip carried a large number of gold and silver treasures looted from Hunan and 50,000 stone of grain and grass, which was not an exaggeration for the barren Shaanxi, which was a timely rain for the intruding army, which had been spending a lot of money recently.

Soon, the team in front came to Li Zicheng and others, a person in front of him was wearing a gorgeous armor, and the armor that was wiped bright could make people's eyes dizzy in the sun, only to see Liu Zongmin jump off the horse and run over, hugging Li Zicheng who was catching up.

"King Chuang, brother, I'm back."

"Okay, just come back." Li Zicheng nodded with satisfaction, he pulled Liu Zongmin to take a closer look before he smiled: "It's good, there is nothing missing on his body." ”

Liu Zongmin smiled and said: "King Chuang, what are you talking about, according to my Lao Liu's ability, just rely on the waste of the court to kill me, Lao Tzu just came to their land and robbed them of their food, money and women, and then swaggered back, what can they do to us." ”

"Okay, Mr. Liu is mighty!"

"That is, with Mr. Liu's ability, the world is so big that you can't go!"

Several generals next to him heard Liu Zongmin's arrogant words, and lost no time in clapping their ass. (To be continued)
