Chapter 174: The government soldiers return to the establishment
The summons of the Orangicho Mansion pierced the silence of the night.
The government soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are in the form of half-soldiers and half-farmers, and they are hereditary from father to son. The rules of the prefectures are similar in various places, some can be rotated, the state has a standing garrison, and the other part returns to the countryside to work as farmers.
Once a war starts with a foreign country, then the Zhechong Prefecture will immediately start the mechanism of summoning the soldiers who work in the countryside, and the soldiers who will work in the countryside will be called back.
Those soldiers who worked in agriculture were veterans of battle, and most of them remained in a period of great strength, and most importantly, they had rich battlefield experience and could lead the recruits to preserve themselves to the maximum extent in battle.
For the Orichong Prefecture, these veterans of agriculture are the most precious treasures of an army.
The knight struck the gong and galloped all the way from the entrance of the village to the village.
The whole Zhuangzi was shocked.
Li Qinzai in the courtyard was startled, hurriedly put on his clothes, and followed the knight.
The knight rode his horse and galloped all the way to the old locust tree in the center of the Zhuangzi, and the gong in his hand still kept ringing.
An old farmer came out scolding and scolded: "Okay, stop! The adults in the Zhuangzi are all awake, don't startle the babies, and then knock you to death. β
The knight was obviously a small military attache in the Zhichong Mansion, but he didn't dare to put on a stand in front of the old farmer who had no official or position, but dismounted and saluted respectfully.
The old farmer didn't push, the big lama accepted his salute, and said slowly: "There is another foreign enemy attacking the border?" Where is the crumb? β
The little military attache bowed down and said with a smile: "It's not a crime, our royal division suffered a small loss in Baekje, and the Japanese kingdom raided our royal division regardless of Xinyi, and we suffered thousands of casualties, and the Son of Heaven issued an edict to swear revenge, so I called the veterans who worked in agriculture from all over the country to return to the building." β
The old farmer laughed: "This son of heaven is good, he is a bloody man, and he has the temper of the first emperor." That's exactly how it should be. If we suffer a loss, we will repay it a hundred times and a thousand times! Let's be a man in Guanzhong, don't do anything! I'm a veteran of Zhenguannian, and I'm going to build it this time. β
The little military attache laughed and said, "You are old...... It's better to farm with peace of mind, Zhechong Mansion is calling soldiers in the prime of life. β
The old farmer glared: "What? Look down on Lao Tzu? You and I will catch the right one now, can Lao Tzu pinch your egg yolk and burst it, believe it or not? β
The little military attachΓ©'s face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Letter, letter, can ...... This is not in accordance with the rules, and I will be beaten with a military stick when I go back to Zhichong Mansion. β
The onlookers laughed, and there was no tension before the war, but they were full of joy.
The crowd was slammed open by a pair of big hands, Lao Wei walked out of the crowd, glared at the old Zhuang and scolded: "Old immortal, obvious you?" When you go to war at an old age, no one will collect your body when you die. β
The old farmer replied without showing weakness: "If you die, you will die, what kind of corpse do you collect?" Go back and earn another military merit for your children and grandchildren, and reward one or twenty acres of Yongye land, ha, enough for this! β
Lao Wei sneered: "The melon still wants to earn Yongye Tian, and the beauty will not kill you." Let's pick a match? After Lao Tzu left one for you, he only pinched and burst one egg yolk for you, and left you one, do you dare? β
The onlookers burst into laughter, and from time to time someone shouted and shouted.
The old farmer blushed, but he didn't dare to fight, and said stupidly: "Lao Tzu doesn't pick with you, you are simply a livestock when you fight people, and you greet them in three ways." β
In the crowd of onlookers, Li Qinzai watched in amazement at this scene full of laughter, which subverted his cognition.
In his cognition, summoning veterans to the battlefield should be a bleak and miserable atmosphere, family members wiping tears, veterans explaining the aftermath with a sad face, Zhuangzi is covered with clouds, and every family is crying behind closed doors.
But the scene in front of him was as if the Zhechong Mansion had sent people down to give the New Year's benefits to the villagers, and they were all elated and jubilant, and everyone was scrambling for fear of being occupied.
The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty can be seen in these veterans.
Lao Wei walked out of the crowd and patted his chest to the little military attache and said, "That old thing, you Mo Li, I'll come." My old Wei was a soldier of Gyeonggi Prefecture in the fourth year of Zhenguan, and he followed the British Gong Izumo to fight the Turks, fought Tubo, conquered Tuyuhun, and also followed Emperor Taizong to conquer Goguryeo. β
The little military attache smiled bitterly: "Don't embarrass me, you are not young at this age, so you should live and farm at home." β
Lao Wei's eyes widened: "I'm old?" Fart! I'm a year younger than the old immortal. Lao Tzu has a bad temper, don't talk nonsense with me, add my name to the roster, Lao Tzu will go to the Zhichong Mansion on time, and Lao Tzu will bring his own weapons and leather armor. β
In the crowd, Lao Wei's son rushed out with a panicked face: "Dad, are you crazy?" What is this age tossing, if you want to go, it should be me! β
Lao Wei turned around and snorted, and scolded angrily: "You use it as an egg!" Bai gave birth to a lot of strength, I have a way to live on the battlefield, can you? Go back and wait, and when I go back, I will earn another twenty acres of land for our family, and Lao Tzu also wants to be a landlord to taste it. β
The little military attache had a bitter face, this group of veterans was fierce and violent, although he was a military attachΓ©, he couldn't afford to provoke him. Today, I was ordered to call the veterans to return to the building, which is obviously a chore.
Turning around and deliberately ignoring this veteran who was messing around, the little military attache looked around at the onlookers and said loudly: "Is there still a government soldier in the Zhuangzi?" β
There was a roar in the crowd.
"Yes!"
As soon as the words fell, a group of sturdy bankers stood up, and the bankers were instantly divided into two groups, one group was the old and weak women and children, and the other group was a strong man.
"In the twentieth year of Zhenguan, Wang Saburo was ordered to return to the building!"
"Liu Lidong, a soldier of the third year of Yonghui, was ordered to return to the building!"
"In the second year of Xianqing, Liu Dahu, a soldier of the government, was ordered to return to the building!"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β
Under the old locust tree in the center of Zhuangzi, a heroic spirit rises to the sky, and the men of the Zhuanghu hold up their solid chests, like a long and indestructible national border, which is invincible and unbreakable in the world.
Behind them were women and children.
The little military attache took out a pen and paper and wrote down the names of the veterans, and his hand trembling a little, obviously excited.
After finishing writing, the little military attache raised his head and said loudly: "Three days later, a moment ago, the government of Weinan County assembled and went to the school field of the North Camp in Gyeonggi, and those who delayed the escape will be dealt with by military law!" β
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Wei stood up and said in a deep voice: "Wei Chenfu, a soldier of the Zhenguan Fourth Year Mansion, was ordered to return to the building!" β
The little military attache froze for a moment, and said with a bitter face: "Old Wei, why do you ...... this?"
Lao Wei interrupted him and said coldly: "Write it!" β
Lao Wei's son was so anxious that he stepped forward and grabbed the corner of his clothes: "Dad! β
"Shut up for me, I'm not dead yet, it's your turn to interfere?"
The little military attache hesitated for a long time, and finally wrote Lao Wei's name on the roster, and then sighed.
Li Qinzai stood in the crowd, looked at them with a complicated expression, and then silently bowed to them without saying a word.
No one saw him, so Li Qinzai turned around and left after saluting.
This time, they are the protagonists.
When he turned around, he happened to see Liu Asi holding Qiao'er's little hand, and they had been standing behind Li Qinzai just now.
Buck'er was still sleepy-eyed, and kept rubbing her eyes, just now the little military attache Man Zhuangzi struck the gong, which obviously woke up Buck'er, so Liu Ah Si brought him over.
Li Qinzai smiled at him and took his hand and walked in the direction of the other courtyard.
On the way back, Buckwheat said puzzledly: "Dad, what are they doing?" Why is everyone vying for that person's name? β
Li Qinzai sighed: "We have an enemy in the Tang Dynasty, and the army gathers these veterans to go to the front line to fight the enemy. β
Buckwheat was still puzzled and said: "Will you die if you fight the enemy?" β
"Will die."
"But why aren't they afraid of death?"
Li Qinzai was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Because behind them are old people, women and children. β
Buckwheat sighed, walked forward silently, for a long time, and suddenly said: "Is Dad also an old man and a woman and a child?" β
Li Qinzai paused, was silent for a long time, shook his head and said, "Dad is not an old man, nor is he a woman or a child. β
Buck didn't continue to ask, and from Li Qinzai's expression, he seemed to have a premonition of something bad.
"Dad, Grandma once said that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Dad is already very powerful, so he has been accompanying buckwheat in Zhuangzi, okay? Buckwheat looked up at him.
The small hand in the palm of his hand suddenly tightened his strength, and Buckwheat held it very hard, for fear that the big hand holding him would suddenly disappear.
Li Qinzai smiled: "Of course my father will accompany Qiao'er and grow up with you all the time." β
