The twenty-sixth year of Qin Shi Huang, September.

The autumn harvest has entered the final stage, and the conscription edict from Xianyang, under the gallop of fast horses, has already spread throughout the entire Kanto region.

The time set by the emperor was after the spring ploughing of the following year, but the various parts of Kanto were far away from the battlefield, so they recruited soldiers and then assembled and hurried to Guanzhong, which took several months to walk just on the road.

Therefore, after the emperor's edict was issued, the counties in the eastern part of the country had to count and recruit soldiers in September, and they had to set off on the road in October.

Surabaya County, Pei County.

The local heroic king's mausoleum is sitting in the mansion at the moment, looking at the henchmen sitting around, his face is pale.

In front of the wooden case, Wang Su, who had a mustache on his face, shook his head and sighed while drinking slurry water.

"It is said that the emperor is going to fight the Hu people in the north, but I heard that the north is full of grasslands and deserts, cold and poor. We people grew up in Huaisi since childhood, and we are used to the water and soil here, and we were conscripted to fight with the Hu people in the distance. ”

Xi Juan said in a deep voice: "My mother is old, if I die in the north, there will be no one to take care of my mother, I don't want to go." ”

This time the Qin State conscription was very strange, in addition to some farmers, many rangers in the county were also named.

They fight and fight on weekdays, and they are not afraid, but if it comes to joining the army and going to the north to fight with the Hu people, it must be extremely unwilling.

But not many dared to run away.

It has been almost three years since the Qin State occupied the land of Chu, and they know the strictness of Qin's law, as long as those who are named dare to run, it will be a disaster for their families.

Wang Su looked up at Wang Ling on the main seat, and said with a pout: "Big brother, you are my Peixian hero, even you can't avoid it?" We deliberately befriended Xiao He before, he is now in the county government, and he is quite valued by Pei Ling, otherwise we will follow his path and find someone to replace us as soldiers. ”

Wang Ling rolled his eyes depressedly and said, "I have already looked for him, Xiao He said that I was named by the county lieutenant, and I can't run this time." ”

"Huh?"

"The county lieutenant actually knows about Brother Wang?"

The crowd's faces were full of surprise.

In their eyes, Wang Ling is also the hero of Pei County, and once he is out of Pei County's territory, he will have no reputation.

Now that he has been named by the county lieutenant of Surabaya County, the card is completely different.

"It's not all the chief."

Wang Ling's face was full of bitterness, and he opened his mouth to explain.

It turned out that the county lieutenant of Surabaya County was named Zhao Guang, who was a subordinate of Zhao Tuo, the chief of the original concubine, who had participated in the battle to destroy Qi and made great contributions, but did not return to Xianyang to receive rewards, but followed Meng Tian to guard in Qidi.

Later, the emperor divided the world into 36 counties and reappointed local guards and lieutenants.

Because Zhao Guang's meritorious title was sufficient, and he had participated in Zhao Tuo's backwater battle in Surabaya County, he was transferred here to serve as the county lieutenant and pacify Surabaya County.

Wang Ling once attended Liu Ji's wedding in Fengyi, and when Qin Jun came here, he was talked to by Zhao Tuo, the chief of the concubine, and his name was remembered by Zhao Guang.

Now that the emperor ordered the county rangers to serve in the military, Zhao Guang, as the county lieutenant, was responsible for the conscription, so he naturally immediately thought of Wang Ling Daxia, and named him at that time.

In such a situation, no matter what the royal tomb has to do with it, it can't get through.

Unless he is willing to leave behind his wife and children and die alone, he will not be able to run away from this military service.

"Let's go, I heard that the main general who led the troops this time is the chief Zhao Tuo, he is a famous general in the world, and he will not lose the battle if he thinks about it, and our chances of survival are still quite big."

Wang Ling bowed his head and sighed softly.

Xi Juan, Wang Sue and other light heroes saw that the boss had accepted his fate, and they could only sigh and hang their heads, no longer thinking about evading military service.

……

Pei County Office.

"Xiao He, you take care of the housework during this time, and stay until next month, when the captain escorts the soldiers into the customs, you will follow along, don't let the chief down."

Zhao Guang, the lieutenant of Surabaya County, stood in front of a group of submissive Pei County officials and spoke to one of the short-bearded officials in their thirties.

The man bowed down and said, "Xiao He, follow the order of the county lieutenant, thank you for the grace of the chief." ”

"Well, I'm waiting for you."

Zhao Guang nodded, and turned to leave amid the congratulations of many officials.

Xiao He was a character who wanted to make friends when he passed by Fengyi before, but it was only because Xiao He went out to study at that time and was not at home that he missed it.

Now the chief of the palace has specially sent someone to deliver a letter, wanting to recruit Xiao He as a staff member and let him follow the Hu people of the Northern Expedition, and this attention can be seen by anyone.

As the old subordinate of the chief of the Dashu, Zhao Guang was naturally concerned about this matter, and he personally came to Pei County to clear up Xiao He for the Long March of the Dashu with the respect of the county captain.

Xiao He has a good appearance, in the face of his own expedition, he is both respectful and not flattering, speaks in a clear manner, and his posture is neither humble nor arrogant, which makes Zhao Guang sigh.

is worthy of being the person that the chief has taken a fancy to, and he is really different.

"In addition to Xiao He, the chief of the palace also wants to recruit Cao Shen and Fan Xu, and I have to meet them in person. I don't know how Dashu knows the names of these two people thousands of miles apart? ”

Zhao Guang shook his head and strode out.

Seeing that the county lieutenant left, many officials in the official office suddenly exploded.

"Xiao Jun, you actually know the eldest chief! That's the Chief! ”

"The chief of the army entrusted the county lieutenant to conquer Xiao Jun, oh my God, Xiao Jun is about to take off!"

"I heard that when the chief of the eldest concubine passed by Fengyi, he sent someone to Xiao Jun's house to give gifts, could it be that Xiao Jun and the eldest chief are old acquaintances?"

In the admiration and stammering voices of many colleagues, Xiao He's expression was complicated.

He still didn't know how he was favored by the chief.

A few years ago, Zhao Tuo, who was only a general at that time, led his army to pass through Fengyi, and sent Lu Juan to visit Xiao's family with gifts to show his friendship, which had flattered Xiao He after returning home.

Now, Zhao Tuogui is the emperor's son-in-law, the lord is the chief of the concubine, and the Shaofu, one of the official residences of the Nine Qings, is about to become the chief general of the 300,000 army.

What a noble figure this was, on the eve of the Great War, he did not hesitate to send people to Surabaya County, thousands of miles away, to recruit himself as a staff member, and even the Surabaya County Lieutenant personally came to visit to express the goodwill of the chief.

Xiao He likes Huang Lao's technique, and his mentality is very calm on weekdays, but at this moment, under this kind of super-standard treatment, he only feels surging and excited.

"Chief, why treat me with the courtesy of a countryman?"

……

"Chief, haven't you forgotten Chen Pinghu?"

Wei Di Hu Township.

Chen Ping looked at the letter personally sent by the local county magistrate in his hand, and his eyes were full of complexity.

In his mind, he thought of the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy of the Five Hundred Lords.

The first battle of Xingyang broke the Wei army.

Chen Ping saw at that time that the young boy had superhuman abilities, and the young man also had a lot of intentions to solicit him Chen Ping in his words.

It's a pity that Chen Ping at that time had already married the daughter of the Zhang family, backed by a wealthy family in Humu Township, and naturally didn't want to pin his future on the five hundred lords of the Qin State with the title of duke.

Not to mention that Qi and Chu were not extinguished at that time, and the situation in the world was still uncertain, Chen Ping was unwilling to take risks.

Who knows, he missed the biggest opportunity in his life.

The young man went from five hundred lords to five doctors, and then became the general of the right concubine, winning all the way, destroying the country and capturing the king, until he became the chief of the Shaofu today, and became the most powerful person in this empire.

I heard that the black butt who followed Zhao Tuo in the past now has the title of the right chief of the right house.

If Chen Ping said that he didn't regret it in his heart, it must be fake.

The opportunity to soar was let go by him.

Fortunately, the chief sent another letter of invitation before the expedition.

"Is this the paper that the chief invented?"

Feeling the strange touch brought by the letter in his hand, Chen Ping's eyes became brighter and brighter.

He whispered, "Chen Ping missed it once, can he miss it a second time?" ”

There was the sound of footsteps behind him.

"Beloved."

The one who spoke was Chen Pingnake's beautiful wife, who had five dead husbands, and her voice was gentle and moving, which was quite provocative.

Chen Ping's heart is like stopping water.

In his mind, what the old boy had said to him was what he had said.

"Chen Ping, Chen Ping, do you have the ambition to dominate the world?"

Three more sent.
