Huang Zhong didn't expect Qin Feng to trust him so much, so he told him these secrets when they met for the second time, and he was inexplicably moved for a while, and hugged his fists and agreed: "The last general will obey orders!" ”

Qin Feng continued: "The purpose of sending troops to Guanzhong is to find a large rear area for our army, and if our army wants to develop and grow, it can't just nest in Nanyang, so we must turn our eyes to other places!" When Han Sheng first came, I was not very familiar with our army's military system and the method of training and issuing orders, so I first appointed you as the Sima of other departments, responsible for supervising the drills of each battalion in Wancheng, so that you can go to the battalions to inspect and soon be familiar with our army's drills, military discipline and regulations, and military system! ”

"Thank you for your trust, I will obey the order!"

Recruitment.

Today it is the turn of Yang Hong and Lu Meng to be on duty, Yang Hong's office is in the east, responsible for the reception of literati; And Lu Meng's office is in the west, and he is responsible for the reception of martial artists, but not all the talents who come to serve can see them.

A literati or warrior who came to serve had to pass several tests, and if he only passed the first level, he could only become a small official who copied and managed documents, or became a team officer.

If you pass the second level, the literati can become a petty official, such as Hu Cao Peng, Li Cao Peng, and so on; A warrior can be a tun chief.

If you pass the third level, you will be able to meet Yang Hong and Lu Meng, and the literati will be able to become a county lord and a county magistrate if they pass the assessment; Warriors can serve as military candidates.

And if even Yang Hong and Lu Meng can't suppress the talent and martial arts of the person who came, they must recommend the person who came to Qin Feng and receive it in person.

At this time, a young man came outside, he looked up at the plaque of the Zhaoxian Hall, and walked up the steps.

There were two armor soldiers on duty at the door, and one of them stepped forward and clenched his fists and asked, "Dare to ask whether the strong man is recruited by talent or martial arts?" ”

The young man said: "The art of martial arts! ”

"Okay, please come with me!"

The young man was taken to the west by the armor and was the first to enter the small courtyard, where there were several military masters talking and laughing.

"He Zhuji, someone is here to apply!" The sergeant took the young man to a registration office.

He Zhuji asked the young man's name, place of origin, and where he lived, and then shouted to one of the people in the courtyard: "Officer Tang, you come to the assessment!" ”

A military master in the courtyard looked at the young man, pointed to the stone mill next to him and said, "If you can lift this stone mill, you can follow me too early, if you can't lift it, go to the conscription office!" ”

The young man walked up to the stone mill and looked at it, lifted the hem of his clothes and tied it into his belt, pulled the horse step shelf, and hugged the stone mill with both hands, and he could lift it easily, and he didn't see how much effort he made.

Seeing that he was so relaxed, the Tang team officer didn't dare to despise him, and said: "It seems that you still have a lot of strength, if you win against me, you can enter the army as a team officer, and you can command five tithes, fifty people, come on!" ”

"Then offend!" The young man hugged his fists, and rushed forward as he spoke.

With a "bump", Officer Tang was punched out before he could react, and it was the young man who controlled his strength and only knocked him away, without causing him much damage.

"Take!" The young man hugged his fists, sat down and pulled Officer Tang up.

Officer Tang said, "Okay, you've passed!" ”

The young man was taken by the armor to the second courtyard.

This time, a middle-aged man was in charge of the assessment, and the middle-aged man asked, "Do you know the art of war?" ”

The young man shook his head: "I don't know! ”

Books are extremely valuable these days, and even more so are military books, not everyone can read military books, and not everyone can learn the art of war.

Let's just say that Guan Yu always holds a Spring and Autumn Book to read, to say that he has read military books and learned the art of war? I'm afraid that it may not be, and the experience of him, Zhang Fei and others in leading troops to fight is accumulated little by little and realized from actual combat.

If the three brothers knew the art of war, they wouldn't have been beaten everywhere every time.

"Have you ever been in the military?"

The young man said: "I spent two years in the Jingzhou army! ”

"Oh?" The middle-aged man was a little surprised, "Is there a position in the Jingzhou Army?" ”

"I've been a chief!" The young man said.

The middleman asked again: "Why did you leave the Jingzhou army and come to Nanyang?" ”

The young man said: "There is no day when the Jingzhou army will come out!" ”

The middle-aged man was a little impressed by this young man, and beckoned: "Come, follow me a few moves, will you use weapons?" ”

"Yes!"

"Go get one from the armory!"

The young man walked over to the armory rack and took a large knife, took it in his hand, and shook it in his hand.

When the middle-aged man saw that he was holding such a heavy weapon, he felt a little drumming in his heart, but anyone who could make such a heavy weapon must be extraordinary in martial arts.

"Come on!"

The young man was not polite, he swung the knife and slashed over, this knife was strong and heavy, fast and fierce, the middle-aged man's eyes were condensed, his heart panicked, and he immediately waved his sword to block, but he couldn't block it, the sword in his hand was cut off instead, and he only felt that his neck was cold, and he saw the young man's big knife on his neck.

"The strong man is strong in martial arts, Wang is not as good as you, you have passed!"

After the second level, a military position at the level of a tun commander will be in hand.

This time, the armor soldier brought the young man to Lu Meng, "General Lu, this person has passed the first two levels!" ”

Lu Meng was reading, he was illiterate before, and he began to learn to read when Qin Feng said it, and asked someone to teach him to study, and he made a lot of progress in just one year.

"Lieutenant?" The young man saw the bamboo slip that Lu Meng was holding in his palm engraved with these three words, and suddenly his eyes couldn't take his eyes off, this was a military book, he had been looking for a long time and couldn't find it, some people were unwilling to lend it to him, and those who spent it were unwilling to teach him.

Seeing this, Lu Meng said, "Brother is interested in this book?" ”

The young man sneered: "I've heard of it, but I haven't read it!" ”

Lu Meng asked again: "Then have you read other military books?" ”

The young man sighed: "How rare are the books of war, and we and other civilians want to read them but have nowhere to borrow them!" ”

"That is to say, you don't know the art of war, you can come here, it can be seen that the martial arts are good, if you win against me, I will lend you a copy of this military book!" Lu Meng said.

The young man's eyes lit up: "Is this true? ”

Lu Meng smiled: "I, Lu Ziming, have made every word, and it is difficult to chase the horse!" ”

The young man immediately said, "Okay, how to fight?" ”

"Whatever you want!"

The young man thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's fight with horses!" ”

"Oh?" As soon as Lu Meng heard that the other party said that he would fight horses, he couldn't help but pay attention to it, and immediately ordered someone to bring two war horses.

The young man chose one of them, and this time he still chose a big knife as a weapon, and Lu Meng also used a big knife.

The two men mounted their horses, their weapons and stared at each other.

"Drive-" The young man took the initiative to pat his horse and rush towards Lu Meng.

Lu Meng also shouted: "It's a good time!" ”
