Chapter 44: Eighteen Years Old

But everything you want is a floating cloud, and being able to take away a strong man is the king.

Deng Fang's words, Liu Feng generally understood. However, there were still some doubts in his heart, and he bowed to Deng Fang and said: "I generally understand what the old gentleman means, but I am puzzled, why is the old gentleman willing to send these children and grandchildren to join the army?" ”

"It's very simple, in today's troubled times, there is no peace for a long time, and joining the army is also a good way out. And I'm also optimistic about you, just like you are optimistic about my grandson named Deng Ai. Deng Fang's eyes were full of wisdom, he looked at Liu Feng deeply, and said with a smile.

Liu Feng couldn't help but admire the wisdom of this old gentleman, under the troubled times, there is only a short-term peace, and there is no long-term Kangtai. In the near future, the old gentleman's words will also be fulfilled, according to historical records, most of the people of Deng Village have been displaced north to Wei like Deng Ai.

However, when Deng Ai was mentioned to Deng Fang, Liu Feng deliberately ignored that Deng Ai was herding cattle, and the cow was Deng Fang's. It is not surprising that Deng Fang knows some things about Deng Ai.

"Don't worry, old gentleman, I will not treat my clansmen badly." Liu Feng bent heavily towards Deng Fang.

"Huh." Deng Fang smiled kindly.

Liu Feng saluted Deng Fang again, and took Xu Tian, who was listening silently next to him, to Zhang Dao's side.

"Major General, his subordinates are incompetent...." Zhang Dao saw Liu Feng coming, and got up guiltily. Zhang Dao was not allowed to finish speaking, Liu Feng smiled and said, "It's okay." ”

As he spoke, Liu Feng took a step forward, replaced Zhang Dao, and stood in front of a group of strong men.

His eyes slowly swept over the bodies of these strong men, some of whom wore coarse cloth shirts, and some of whom were dressed as scribes, with cloth scarves wrapped around their heads.

The Deng people are a very large ethnic group, and there are certainly differences between rich and poor.

While Liu Feng looked at these people, these people also looked at Liu Feng.

For Liu Feng and the others, there are those who are curious. There are those who disdain, and there are those who respect.

I was curious about Liu Feng being eighteen years old but came out to command the army. disdainful, also because Liu Feng is eighteen years old, in the eyes of some people, belongs to the type of person who has no hair on his mouth and does not do things firmly. Of course, there is no future with Liu Feng.

Respect is not because of respect for Liu Feng, but respect for Liu Feng's father, Liu Bei. This left general who brought stability to Shinno.

Anyway, no one trusts Liu Feng's ability.

Even if they want to join the army, these people may choose to walk fifty miles to defect to Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei and these people are not willing to follow Liu Feng.

"I'm eighteen years old, in Sven's words, the age of a weak crown, but I have to run around and recruit soldiers. I said that I still want to go into battle to kill the enemy, why? Liu Feng lifted the breath in his chest and said this sentence in a high manner.

Why?

Following Liu Feng's words, these strong men were somewhat aware of this problem. It stands to reason that Liu Feng's background is very good, Liu Bei's stepson. There is a world-famous Lao Tzu on the top, and a group of civil servants and military generals on the bottom.

Why do you need to come out at the age of eighteen to recruit soldiers? What about going into battle to kill the enemy? People die on the battlefield.

Facing these doubtful eyes, Liu Feng did not raise his hands and shouted, but said with a very flat smile: "It's very simple, because I'm a restless person, and I don't want to waste time under the wings of my father." I want to go into battle and kill the enemy and grow up to be a general like my father. This is my ambition. ”

Although it is very bland, Liu Feng's naked expression of his ambition still caused many people's blood to boil.

Of course, most of the people present like to be plain, but there are also one or two people who are not afraid of death and are restless. It may not be ambition, but just unsettled with the status quo.

These people listened to Liu Feng's words, and a sense of recognition rose from their hearts.

Is it really what they want to cultivate the fields and work all their lives? The doubts in my heart came out.

This is also what Liu Feng wants, he just wants to incite the restless people in this group.

Liu Feng pointed to his heart and said loudly: "I, eighteen years old, have not proven my ability, and I have never led troops to fight, but I dare to fight and kill." How is it, do you want to follow along? Let's see if you can follow me out of the army and take a different path. ”

To be honest, Liu Feng is not a man who will be enthusiastic. His surname is relatively calm. But there are some things that you don't have to be passionate to say.

Incitement is a skill of speaking, but also a manifestation of ability.

In this regard, Liu Feng was born.

Looking at the group of strong men in front of him, there are people who are eager to try, and there are people whose eyes are on fire.

Liu Feng didn't feel anything yet, but Zhang Dao behind Liu Feng and Xu Tian had a feeling in their hearts. There is a strong feeling that following this man, there will definitely be a smooth path waiting for them.

Although Liu Feng claimed that he was incapable and had never led the army to fight.

Zhang Dao, a senior official under Zhang Fei. Xu Tian, a young official from a family of officials and very experienced.

Both of them have such feelings, let alone these ordinary people in Dengjia Village.

One after another, more than a dozen people turned the impulse in their hearts into actions and walked out of the group of more than 100 strong men.

"Thank you for your trust." Liu Feng solemnly bowed to the group of people, and then Liu Feng turned back to Zhang Dao and said, "The record is in the policy, and each person will be given 10,000 yuan." and if he has an heir, whether he is male or female, he shall have an additional two thousand pennies. ”

"Believe me, I may die if I follow, but I will never regret it." After instructing Zhang Dao, Liu Feng turned his head violently and faced the more than ten people.

The words full of contagion once again aroused the ambition of this group of people.

A little hesitation, and the worry about the family turned into firmness at this moment.

Zhang Dao listened to Liu Feng's instructions, sat down again, unfolded the blank bamboo slips on the case, and wrote the words Dengjiacun and other words first. "Take a step forward." Immediately, he looked up and said to a villager from Deng Village who responded to Liu Feng's call and joined the army.

This is a man in his twenties, thirty and unattained. He was wearing a coarse cloth shirt, and he was very rough. He first glanced at Liu Feng, and there was a restless ambition in his eyes. Then he stepped forward and said, "Deng Guang." ”

"How many children do you have at home?" Zhang Dao asked according to Liu Feng's instructions.

"Two sons, three daughters." Deng Guang replied in a rough voice.

"Come on, go get 20,000 dollars." Zhang Dao turned his head and raised his voice to Xu Tian.

"No." Xu Tian nodded solemnly, and took more than ten capable soldiers brought by Liu Feng this time to get the money and send it to Deng Guang in front of everyone.

At this time, Liu Feng next to him interjected: "Take the money and go home, you are allowed to stay at home for three days, and this will be reported later." ”

"Major General Xie." Deng Guang was a little relieved in his heart, but he was overjoyed when he heard this, and hugged his fist towards Liu Feng and said gratefully.

Of course, he planned to make a fortune, but Deng Guang, who was already young, also knew that the battlefield was sinister and would kill people. There are only three days left to spend with the family, which is really urgent. After thanking Liu Feng, he immediately turned around and left.

"Next." After Deng Guang left, Zhang Daolang said.

swept away the sweat on his forehead before, and his heart was anxious, and he felt quite high-spirited.
