Chapter 180: Li Zhongfanwai (I)
Li Zhongfanwai
γSouthern Korean Barracks Recruitment Officeγ
A tall, thin sergeant sat listlessly behind the military case, and in front of it stood a tall man.
The tall and thin sergeant raised his eyelids, glanced at the person in front of him, and began to recordβ
"Name?"
"Li Zhong. β
"Age?"
"Three out of twenty. β
"Why join the army?"
"Serve the country. β
"What did you do before?"
β......β
"What did you do before?"
"Crowd brawl ......"
When the sergeant heard this, he looked up at the tall man in front of him and found that his expression was calm, and one of his eyes was covered by a strip of cloth.
His arms are strong, and although he has a little calluses on his hands, it doesn't look like he was using farm tools.
"Well, there was a captain in the army the day before yesterday, who was injured during training and retired, so you can replace him first. β
-----------
The Southern Dynasty, a powerful dynasty that had only been established for decades, seemed to stand proudly on the mainland like the sky, but in fact it was full of internal crises.
The king of the Southern Dynasty, who was supposed to have absolute power in the Southern Dynasty, was not as freewheeling as he imagined, because he also had to take care of the other five people, the heads of the five most powerful families in the Southern Dynasty.
However, these were not important to Li Zhong at that time.
Li Zhong only cares about one thing - eating.
Li Zhong was born into an ordinary peasant family in the Southern Dynasty, and before he could help his parents plow the land, they were killed by the rebels......
Later, the land and house were annexed by the nobles of the Southern Dynasty, which completely broke off Li Zhong's idea of becoming a peasant.
Li Zhong, who had no land and no place to live, could only wander around, begging for alms from rich and noble families.
But later Li Zhong found that it is very difficult for those who have money to ask them for things, but if you beat them up first, it is much easier to ask them for things.
Therefore, sometimes they give more things, Li Zhong will also give things to other people like Li Zhong, and then next time he will take these brothers to ask them for things.
Li Zhong suddenly thanked his parents at this moment, although Li Zhong couldn't remember their appearance clearly, but he still thanked them for giving Li Zhong such a strong body and a pair of terrifying eyes of different colors......
Later, I heard that the imperial court was recruiting soldiers here and was in charge of food......
Li Zhong decided to give it a try, after all, it was not a long-term solution to continue like this.
Li Zhong told Li Zhong's brothers about it, but they didn't seem to want to go.
They persuaded Li Zhong that although the king now has a military merit system, in fact, almost all the official positions in the army are occupied by nobles, and civilians like Li Zhong are really just soldiers when they become soldiers.
However, Li Zhong didn't care about this, anyway, he had food to eat, whether he was a soldier or a general, Li Zhong didn't care.
-------------
After Li Zhong entered the barracks, he received a set of armor and weapons from the quartermaster, and Li Zhong was also briefly informed of the distribution of military positions in the Southern Dynasty:
In the army of the Southern Dynasties, the most noble position was the general, as the name suggests, it is the highest rank in the army, with absolute power, but only the pillar of the country can hold it.
There is only one in the total, but generally one person from each of the five major families takes turns to serve as a general, followed by generals with titles such as General Dingyuan and General Che Cai, and then generals without titles, and then there are captains, commanders, centurions, chiefs, and captains......
These are mainly military positions that participated in the war, of course, there are also some other official positions such as military supervisors, quartermasters, sword and pen officials, etc., but Li Zhong didn't listen to them much, after all, now, eating is the most important.
After changing into the clothes and armor of the captain, Li Zhong found a few people who belonged to him, exchanged a few words of greetings, and then went to eat.
"Alas, sure enough, in the troubled times, even those who are soldiers can't eat well......"
Looking at the green vegetables and rice in the bowl, Li Zhong recalled the life of "asking for things" in the past, and he could be regarded as a big fish and meat at that time.
"Sir Li!"
A delicate-looking little radish approached Li Zhong, and Li Zhong glanced at him, one of the people who had previously belonged to Li Zhong's team.
Li Zhong snorted, and the little radish continued-
"Sir Li, are you a nobleman?"
"It's not. β
Li Zhong replied lightly, and then continued to do his own thing.
"Huh?"
Little Radish looked puzzled, and then the star eyes said-
"Then Chief Li, as soon as you come in, you will be Captain Wu, you are really powerful!"
"Ha, maybe it's the recruiter who looks at me as tall and strong. β
"Speaking of which, Chief Li, your name is so charming, your parents must be very literate!"
"My parents were farmers and died young, and my name was self-......"
"Ah, I'm so sorry!"
When the little radish heard this, he looked remorseful for accidentally saying the wrong thing.
Li Zhong originally said in a low voice, but when he saw the little radish, he seemed to be a little depressed, thinking that it was because of himself, and then scratched the back of his head and said-
β...... Haha, it's okay, it's just a casual take, it's not a big deal. β
Seeing that the little radish was still not very happy, Li Zhong waved his right arm casually, and suddenly asked-
"What's your name, why do you want to join the army?"
"My surname is Li, my name is ......"
As he was talking, the little radish looked a little hesitant, "Call, Li ...... Dog eggs. β
"Ah", Li Zhong thought to himself, this name, no wonder he hesitated for so long.
"Hey......
The little radish suddenly scratched the back of her head with her hand, and said lightly-
"My mother said that a cheap name is easy to feed. My father and mother also died early, and they joined the army just to make ends meet, what about Chief Li?"
"Me too. β
Li Zhong smiled bitterly and continued-
"However, I didn't expect that the food for this soldier would be so poor. β
Hearing this, the little radish turned her head and glanced at Li Zhong's rice bowl, sat back again, and said-
"Sir Li, this is not bad, soldiers like Li Zhong only have food and a little wild vegetables, alas!"
"Oh, then you're worse than me", Li Zhong handed Li Zhong's bowl over, "Eat some of my vegetables." β
The little radish seemed to be a little surprised, he took the rice bowl with both hands, looked left and right, got up and grabbed Li Zhong, and said-
"Follow me. β
Li Zhong followed the little radish head to a remote and hidden corner, and the little radish head put the rice bowl aside, looked around, and then began to untie the armor.
Li Zhong was taken aback, and when he was thinking about whether the other party would have any special habits, the little radish took out a piece of cloth wrapped in layers from his armor and said-
"Chief Li whispered, this is the meat I secretly borrowed from the Huotou Army, and now I will share it with Chief Li to eat......"
Li Zhong looked at the already thin little radish head, and after taking out a piece of meat from his armor, he became thinner, his heart was sour, and then he ......
Pick up the meat in his hand and chew it heavily.
"Good boy...... How dare you steal meat...... It's a felony......"
"Chief Li is quiet, and I'm not stealing, I'm borrowing ......"
"It's okay, since you gave me the meat, you will be my brother in the future, and if I Li Zhong eats a bite of meat, I will also have a bite of you......"
"Really! Then I'll call you Brother Li from now on!"
"Wide to ......"
"Brother Li, that is, I heard that there are generally no women in the barracks, so there are many thin and delicate recruits who will be ...... That one...... It is...... will be bullied, so please ...... Brother Li"
"Don't worry, ...... Li"
Li Zhong thought of the name of Xiao Radish Ertou, and felt that it was better to call him by his surname, "Brother Xiao Li, I have a big brother to cover you, only you bully others, how dare anyone bully you...... Uh-huh...... Delicious......"
"That's good, I don't want to bully others, Brother Li, thank you...... Hey, Brother Li, leave me some meat for ......."
