Chapter 15: Mistakes

In the fourteenth year of Kangxi, the twentieth day of the first month, outside the city of Hangzhou, the military camp.

Flags fluttered, camp tents were dense, people and horses from all walks of life were noisy, and it was a mess. Except for a few green battalion soldiers in white hats and uniforms, most of them were people from all over the country, ranging from fifteen or sixteen-year-old young men with immature complexions, to thirty or forty years old, with different accents and different faces.

The horses neighed and shouted, chaotic, you came and went, laughing and scolding, but looking at the appearance of the people, the faces were yellow and thin, and the clothes were shabby, it seemed like a huge refugee camp, and it was like a big bazaar where the people gathered.

It can be described in four words: rabble.

These refugees are like hemp stalks, once they go to the battlefield, isn't this sent to death?

"Li Fu, the person is handed over to you!"

At the gate of the barracks, Steward Li explained to the officers who came out majestic.

If it weren't for the Governor's explanation, he wouldn't have bothered to make this trip.

"Brother, go slowly!"

Li Fu, who was covered in armor, smiled with a smile on his face, nodded his head, and his lightning rod helmet was obliquely tilted at 45 degrees, waving frequently to the carriage of Steward Li and others, turning his head, and becoming indifferent and majestic.

Wang Heyao and Zheng Siming glanced at each other, and they both grimaced.

This Li Fu, watching people cook, is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Seeing that the soldiers in the camp are all thin and weak, with vegetable faces, this guy is so fat, how much military fat and military ointment does he have to eat?

"Dog, I see that the Governor is full of praise for the poems of the fifth child!"

Zheng Siming touched Chen Zigou beside him, and his eyes gestured to Li Fu in front of him.

"Yes! Miss Li had to leave the fifth brother's ink treasure. However, in my opinion, it is also written in general. What am I on earth...... Zhou Changke, ask you or something, I don't know why the Governor likes it? ”

Chen Zigou is serious and nonsense.

"It's a melancholy guest in the world, not a circumferential guest! If you are told to read and write, you just won't be able to learn well! ”

Zhao Guohao ridiculed Chen Zigou.

"Lao Wu and Master Li, that's called sympathy. Everyone is a reader, and the appreciation between readers is certainly not something that we rough people can understand! ”

Zheng Siming glanced at the sullen Sun Jiachun, and lowered his voice to remind him.

"Second child, what's wrong, be happy!"

Sun Jiachun raised his head and smiled awkwardly.

I thought it was an official, but looking at this posture, it was similar to the Dalanshan Inspection Division.

"Who's the fifth?"

Li Fu stopped abruptly and asked in surprise.

"This is the fifth child, Wang Heyao, Miss Li's life-saving benefactor, the Governor admires him!"

Zhao Guohao, like Chen Zigou, is serious and talks nonsense.

"It turns out that you are the new President Qian!"

Li Fu instantly had a smile on his face, and suddenly realized.

"Brother, I am the guerrilla Li Fu here, you can call me brother in the future, or Brother Li, Li Fu is okay!"

Guerrilla!

Wang Heyao was secretly surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward, parallel to Li Fu, with a smile on his face.

"Brother, then brother, I'll climb high!"

Although the military attache of the Qing Dynasty was not valuable, this guerrilla general was a proper high-ranking general, ranking below the staff generals, and under him there were thousands of generals, generals and other official positions.

This Li Fu still has a few brushes as an official, and he is also his top boss.

Thousand! I'm not bad, but my debut is ...... Place the location!

"Brother doesn't know, brother, I was just a small soldier in the Governor's Battalion, and I became a guerrilla because of my military achievements. Truth be told, it was all the grace of the Governor. In the future, if there is something in this camp, I will find my brother! ”

This Wang Heyao, no wonder he was a thousand presidents at a young age, and he turned out to be the life-saving benefactor of the governor's daughter, no wonder the governor valued and promoted him so much.

"After that, I will be annoyed by my brother to take care of and carry me!"

Wang Heyao was secretly frightened. It seems that this Li Fu is Li Zhifang's family member, and he can be regarded as Li Zhifang's house slave. Unexpectedly, in this green battalion, it is also nepotism.

This guy, with such a round figure, hasn't killed the enemy yet, and it is estimated that he will trip first, can he go to the battlefield?

"Well said, well said!"

Li Fu was secretly unhappy in his heart, but he didn't dare to express it.

No wonder this kid didn't have "filial piety silver" when he met, it turned out that he was the life-saving benefactor of the governor's daughter.

"Brother, you have come at the right time. Last month, the officers and soldiers escorted grain and grass to the Yingzhou capital, but they were attacked by rebels, killing many brothers and leaving many positions vacant in the battalion. You're in luck. ”

Li Fu looked at Wang Heyao enviously. This kid has taken shit luck there, and he can climb to the governor, and he is a thousand presidents at a young age, and he will have a great future in the future.

Wang Heyao secretly called it a fluke. It's the right time to come by yourself.

"Brother, how many people are in this camp?"

Wang Heyao looked at the chaos in the camp, just like the vegetable market, and his brows furrowed.

"There is no definite number. Sometimes it's four or five thousand, sometimes it's six or seven thousand, and it's usually around five or six thousand. ”

Li Fu explained carefully to Wang Heyao and took the trouble to do so.

"Are we brothers, the main thing is to escort grain and grass, sometimes one battalion, sometimes two battalions, there is no fixed number."

Li Fu and Wang Heyao laughed as they talked, and put their arms forward.

"Brother, the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, your burden is not light!"

Wang and Yao flattered each other in their mouths.

Zheng Siming pursed his lips. Wang Heyao is not surprised, he is exquisite, with him, the brothers can stay more comfortable.

Everyone giggled and followed forward, Sun Jiachun's eyes were lonely, looking left and right, as if he had something else on his mind.

"Brother, that's ......"

After walking for a while, in the barracks, a group of people were shouting slogans and practicing on the teaching field, with big swords and spears, tigers and tigers, and they were very imposing, just like the apprentices and masters who practiced martial arts in the martial arts hall.

"These are the people of Shaoxing Mansion, under the jurisdiction of other battalions, do not charge heavy grain and grass, they are serious green battalion soldiers, which will be pulled out today and go south with the army. The master of the family is the flag man, which is different from us. ”

In Li Fu's eyes, there was a trace of envy, jealousy and hatred.

"Banner Man?"

Wang Heyao couldn't help but be stunned.

"The general of these guys is called Yao Yi, the Han army is inlaid with red flags, and he is also a guerrilla, and he has some skills. His son Yao Qisheng is a gentleman, and there are people in the court, and he has some means. These guys were going to Jinhua in a few days, and I heard that Prince Kang's army was stationed there. ”

Speaking of Yao Qisheng, Li Fu seemed to be a little in awe.

Wang Heyao smiled slightly, secretly embarrassed.

They were originally going to take refuge in Yao Qisheng, and it turned out that these people were also in this camp, which was really a mistake.

However, in this way, he will not have the opportunity to go to the front for the time being.

"This Yao Qisheng turned out to be a businessman, Prince Kang went south to quell the rebellion, and their father and son donated money to raise hundreds of people to serve under Prince Kang."

Li Fu looked around and said in a low voice:

"Yao Qisheng's father and son have a set of military training and have made a lot of military exploits. People raised soldiers and bought horses, and the armor, bows and arrows they got were all paid for by themselves, and more than 50,000 taels were thrown in! ”

"More than 50,000 taels!"

Wang Heyao and Zheng Siming looked at each other, both surprised, and Wang Heyao smiled dumbly.

"What a big deal! What a lot of courage! ”

Sure enough, it is a good ...... of the Qing Dynasty O subjects!

50,000 taels of silver, but it's enough for 5,000 people for a year!

The pursuit of life is really different.
