Chapter 18: The Storm

The recruiting point was set up in the drunken immortal building in the city, which is a large restaurant with the same name as the county seat. The hospitality seats on the third floor are often full, and this is especially true today. Why? The county keeper personally chartered the entire restaurant, and ordered that all those who were actively engaged in the city could have a camp meal in this restaurant, and the wine and food were prepared in advance, although it was not expensive, but it was definitely not eaten by many people in their lives. What's even more amazing is that in addition to having a meal for themselves, the enlisted can also bring an additional person into this drunken immortal building to dine together, which is called the beautiful woman's farewell banquet.

The drunken immortal building is crowded with people, and the seats are full; Outside the Zuixian Building, the crowd was also turbulent, and the entire Mashi Street was blocked by water.

There are people queuing up to enlist in the army, holding the pre-counted number plate, while slowly moving forward, while standing on tiptoe to look at the people in the restaurant, all of them can't help but leave excited saliva. There are also people who accompany each other, because they don't have to queue up to register, so many of them look in at the door of the restaurant early, while not forgetting to anxiously urge those relatives and friends who are queuing up not to rub in, and register quickly, so that they can go in early to drink and eat meat.

If it weren't for the fact that there were three or four little two at the door who tried their best to stop it, the threshold of the restaurant today would be broken by them. But noisy is noisy, from the inside of the restaurant to the door, this group of people has always left a road that can not be traversed by one person. In order to let the people who are full of food and drink in the restaurant come out smoothly, otherwise, if the people inside can't come out, then they are in a hurry to enter, and they have to line up at the door.

Chen Xun and the four of them broke left and right, and then they barely lined up. According to the beginning, when he came to apply alone, the remaining three of the eight horsemen of Yanshan went straight to the county guard mansion to explain the current situation in the north. But Li Yihuan and Liao Chonghai were not worried about Chen Xun, who had just recovered from his injury, and insisted on coming to see him off, and the Baijia scholar also said that the gate of Chaotian Pass was opened, and there were already people who went south earlier than them.

The eighth Liao Chonghai was very annoyed by the crowd, but he couldn't make a move, so he felt aggrieved.

"Hey, the people of my Daxing, now they are so not afraid of death, and they are more and more active than one when they go into battle, they are really loyal and patriotic..."

The white-armored scholar glanced at Li Yihuan obliquely, and the latter knew that he was speechless, so he quickly shut up and didn't dare to say more.

"I can't complain about the people, they only know that the Northwest Army has been defeated by the tricks of the grassland people," Chen Xun looked at the crowd in front of him and couldn't help sighing, "They probably always feel that I have enough military strength, and the grassland people must be like local chickens and dogs, and they can be killed at will."

Lao Ba Liao Chonghai snorted coldly, "I'm in a hurry to die, why bother with them"

"It's not the people's fault, I've been prosperous and strong for too long, and I've been stable for too long, so the people think that there is no strong enemy around" Chen Xun paused and continued, "Now this restaurant, it seems that it must be one of the best in the city, ordinary people are afraid that they may not be able to come in for a meal all their lives, so now that there is this opportunity, of course, everyone is scrambling." Although he was conscripted into the army, he had no worries about his life, and he had a military presence to take, and now there is a rare drunken immortal building, so it is not surprising that there is this scene today. ”

The white-armored scholar was probably also annoyed by the methods of this county guard, "It can only be said that our county guard is well versed in people's hearts."

Chen Xun frowned, and faintly felt that something was wrong, "Master, looking at the current situation, I'm afraid something is going to happen." ”

The Baijia scholar hummed softly, and the crowd was so noisy that Chen Xun and the other two didn't hear it.

"Master, the soldiers who have been recruited in this way have no combat experience at all, and I am afraid that they will not even be able to use my Daxing standard war knife. If you rush north, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

"These people love to die, Xun'er, you don't care what they do" Li Yihuan also sneered, as if the scene in front of him was just a farce.

"Fourth uncle, these are the people of Daxing" Chen Xun squeezed away the people in front of him hard, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction, and even wanted to push back this young man who kept wanting to cut in line.

It's just that where are these people who are the opponents of the veterans who have fought with the grassland people dozens of times, Chen Xun either gave in or retreated, like a fish in the crowd, and finally came to the registerer's table.

Behind the table was a man of about thirty years of age, slender and long, with his hair combed in a bun and two slender beards on his thin mouth, which shook up and down with his opening.

"Name, age, place of origin" The man asked casually without raising his head. A man who can put his own death at risk for the sake of a meal is not worth looking up twice.

"Excuse me, my lord, this group of people has entered the barracks, but there will be people training?" Chen Xun didn't answer the words of the middle-aged man behind the table, on the contrary, he had to figure out the doubts in his heart, if this group of people really went into battle to kill the enemy without training, it was estimated that there would be no one in ten.

The man was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect someone to ask this kind of question, "This is the matter of the general, how does a junior official who is responsible for nodding head registration know?"

The man seemed to be impatient, and shook his wrist with the hand holding the pen, "I said do you want to sign up, if you don't sign up, you will step back, don't you see so many people queuing?"

"My lord, then may you ask the general, after entering the camp, have you had any training?" Chen Xun also lost his temper, how could he allow these people to come nonsense in a military matter.

"Hey, did I say you're here to find trouble?" The clerk in charge of registration became angry for a moment, and motioned to the officials on both sides who maintained order on the scene to step forward and drive this person away.

Don't say that the two of them, that is, the four of them want to take down Chen Xun, and it is not an easy task. I saw that he grabbed the hand on the side of his shoulder with one hand and gently took it, and the official on the left who wanted to push him back was a step forward, and it happened to collide with the official who came up on the right, and both of them fell.

"Yo, do you have two efforts? No wonder it's so crazy. The little official put down the pen and paper in his hand, "Two more people, take him down." ”

The officials on the side instantly surrounded them again, and the two people who fell probably felt that they had made a fool of themselves in front of so many people, and they became more and more annoyed in their hearts. So the two stepped forward again and formed a circle with the two later.

The people queuing up on the side were very dissatisfied with Chen Xun stepping forward, if it weren't for Liao Chonghai on the side secretly trying to make them unable to get close, it is estimated that someone would have rushed up. Now seeing that the young man who cut into the queue has a conflict with the officers and soldiers, his heart is very happy. Although I don't know what caused the juvenile to fight against the officers and soldiers, but looking at the current posture, I am afraid that he will not be good today, and I can't say that this young man will have to eat two days in prison. As a result, the crowd on the side became even more turbulent. There are those who raise cajoling and shouting for the officers and soldiers, and there are those who angrily curse others. The scene was in chaos for a while.
