Chapter 4: Joining the Army (1)

Matiel's mother is not tall, her figure is a little bloated, she carries a big burden, and she pulls the gold stone, so she can't walk fast. There were still some vacant seats in the carriage where an uncle pulled materials, so he kindly let them get on the carriage.

She is kind and can laugh and chat with anyone. Jin Shi knew that her son was the town's garrison, and that it was her son who picked him up from the side of the road. Because he was preparing for the war, he had no time to take care of him, so he could only take him back to his own home.

Jin Shi never spoke, but his eyes were always curious to look at everything around him. He only now realizes that the world is much bigger than he imagined, and he has followed his parents to the town at most. He also understood many things, such as war, such as protection, such as death, such as revenge......

Tieken City is in the deepest part of Qingshui Ridge and is also the last barrier of Qingshui Ridge. It was a fifteen-day journey from Shimang Town to Tieken City, and in these fifteen days, Jin Shi saw too many old, weak, sick and disabled people joining the road of escape. But there was only one kind of people who were walking in the opposite direction, either on horseback or on foot, always silent and well-trodden, well-armed, with shields, spears, and bows. He knew that they were called soldiers, and he also learned from others that this was the Second Army, and they were going to the border to defend against foreign enemies.

On the fifteenth, whether it was fast or not, whether it was slow or not, Mathil and Jinshi were lucky, and they stayed in the dilapidated carriage and arrived at Tieken City. Although Tieken City has an iron name, it is actually built of stone like Shimang Town. It's just that this is the last barrier of Qingshuiling, the city tower is built exceptionally strong, and the scale is more than ten times larger than Shimang Town, which can be called an iron wall, so it is named.

Approaching the city gate, Mathil and Jin Shi had to get out of the car to be interrogated. Jin Shi didn't quite understand why, and stared at Matiel. Lady Mathil bent down her somewhat fat waist and said, "Just check and inquire to see if there is anything bad, and if there are any bad people who want to follow into the city." You must cooperate later, and don't run around. ”

Jin Shi nodded slightly, and was pulled in front of Matiel, for fear that he would be squeezed away. There were many people who fled, but everyone had to be checked, and the queue was long. I don't know how long the queue has been, and I'm getting impatient when I walk and stop.

"Next. One of the defenders shouted.

Matiel Niang hurriedly pushed Jin Shi forward, Jin Shi's original clothes were tattered and bloodstained, and she had already been thrown away by Matiel Niang, and she was wearing old clothes that she should have come out of. Except for a suit of clothes, there is nothing long. Inspecting the defender asked, "Where did it come from?"

Jin Shi didn't answer, but stood there dumbfounded, and the defenders asked again, "Where did you come from?" ”

Matiel Niang hurriedly said: "We are from Shimang Town, and the child can't speak. ”

The defenders stared at Matiel, then at Jinshi, and asked, "Your child?"

Matiel's mother said helplessly: "It's not my child." ”

"Whose child is that?" the defenders asked, raising their voices, already suspicious of Matil, and he guessed that the child might have been brought by human traffickers.

Mathil lowered her voice and said, "That's right, this child is from the border village, and my son picked it up from the side of the road when he was on a mission. ”

This reason is quite reasonable, the person who asked was a veteran, and Jin Shi looked stupid as if he was scared by the war. And the news came faster than them, and the defenders had long heard that the battle on the side of Shimang Town was very fierce, and there were heavy casualties.

The defenders squatted down, faced Jin Shi, and asked softly, "Are you from Shimang Town?"

Jin Shi stared at this bearded soldier, thinking of Uncle Maga who was patrolling the border with his father, and suddenly felt a little kind, and nodded very obediently.

The defenders were actually a little disappointed when they saw Jin Shi nodding, he preferred to hope that Jin Shi had been drugged to look dull, and Matiel was a human trafficker. In this way he can prevent a tragedy, a tragedy that is less traumatic than war. Sighing helplessly, he said, "Let's go in!"

Matiel Niang hurriedly pulled the golden stone to the city gate, his son was the garrison, and he also knew that it was not easy for them, so he said again and again: "It's hard, it's hard." ”

He had never seen so many people, so many houses, and so wide streets. Mathil was also a little surprised, but she was much more rational than Jin Shi, as a refugee, the most important thing at the moment was to go to the refugee camp to find a place to settle down, and to get some food. The food in the baggage has long been empty, and the thrift barely makes Jin Shi hungry.

Mathil Niang pulled the golden stone and walked towards the refugee camp, she was not afraid of not finding the way, the street was full of garrisons standing guard, just ask, after all, it is a period of war readiness.

When passing by a square, Jin Shi was curious not to leave, only to hear someone shouting somewhere: "The Second Army Reserve Army recruits, and the Second Army Reserve Army recruits." ”

He stopped when he heard the words 'Second Legion,' and he didn't hear or see the Second Legion on the way here.

Matiel asked helplessly, "Why don't you leave again?" Seeing Jin Shi staring at the recruitment office of the legion, he said: "That is the place where soldiers are recruited, and this is how my son went to the garrison at that time. Thinking that her son was still fighting in Shimang Town, and her life and death were uncertain, she suddenly felt a little sad. For a moment, she didn't even notice that Jin Shi got rid of her hand.

"The Second Army Reserve Army recruits, and the Second Army Reserve Army recruits. "Huang San has been shouting for a morning, but there are very few people recruited. I have already gathered a legion, where can there be so many people to recruit! There is no way, now the combat readiness alert is getting higher and higher every day, and even Tieken City has reached the first level of alert, let alone the front line. If you recruit from other places, it will take at least ten days and half a month, and if you recruit from here, you can complete the equipment in one day, and you can go to the front line to fill the vacancy at any time.

Just when Huang San was depressed, a dumb child appeared in front of him, with dark skin and looking quite healthy. He couldn't help but ask, "Lost?"

Jin Shi didn't answer, just stared at him. Huang San could only look back at his captain for help. Salda also saw the situation here, put Huang San aside and asked Jin Shi, "Is there something wrong?"

Huang San added: "This is our captain Solda, what can you tell him, he has the final say here." ”

Only then did Jin Shi turn his attention to the captain named Salda. At this time, Mathil's mother also came back to her senses, found Jin Shi, hurriedly went up to grab him, and said, "I'm sorry, the child is not sensible, and I have caused you trouble." ”

After Matiel's mother finished speaking, she pulled the golden stone and left, but I don't know why, she couldn't pull it. So I tried again, but I still couldn't pull it.

Jin Shi suddenly broke free of Matiel's hand and stared at Solda, his eyes becoming sharp and his breath becoming rapid. Mother Mattier was a little surprised, how could this child be so abnormal today, he was an obedient child in the past!

Captain Salda stared at Matil, who was once again treated as a human trafficker, so he asked softly, "What can you tell me, I can help you." ”

Jin Shi's breathing became more and more rapid, his entire chest was rising and falling violently, he felt a fire burning in his heart, and he especially wanted to roar a few times. When Matiel was about to explain, Jin Shi clenched his fists with both hands, and his little hands clicked, and suddenly shouted: "I want revenge......"

Mathil covered her mouth in shock, not just because it was the first time she had heard Jin Shi speak. Salda was also stunned, and for a moment he understood everything. Huang San was stunned, he wanted to drink water to moisten his throat, but the kettle was raised in the air and he forgot to move. Not only them, but the other sergeants were also stunned and silent. Pedestrians on the road also stopped and looked this way.

Jin Shi's words can be described as shocking, he didn't know at all, but suddenly figured out what he should do. Now that he roared out, he felt much smoother, and said, "I want to join the army." ”

Solda's heart was pounded, and he could clearly feel the perseverance and determination in that shout. It's just that I can't believe that this is from the mouth of a child who is still underage. It was a long time before he woke up from the shock and said, "No. ”

"Why?" asked Jinshi.

"You're too small. Salda said.

Jin Shi was not convinced, and said loudly: "As long as I am fed, I am stronger than anyone else, as long as I am allowed to go to the battlefield, I am more ruthless than anyone else." ”

Salda's heart was struck again, and he found that the perseverance and determination in that cry had nothing to do with blood, but with longing. This time he thought about it for a long time, and he was also looking at the golden stone carefully.

Jin Shi looks ordinary, if you want to say any characteristics, the two little tiger teeth are very good-looking. Dark-skinned, slightly taller than playmates of the same age in the village, and a little taller than children of the same age in the city, just a little. At most, he can be recognized as eleven years old, less than twelve years old, and the Chu and Jin imperial military system stipulates that a minimum age of fourteen can join the army, which makes Solda embarrassed.
