Chapter Eighty-Nine: Disciple Jiang Cheng (Ask for Collection!) )
However, just when Cai Yong and others were discussing Jiang Qi, our Jiang family was taking eight steps towards the school with a mighty king.
There was an endless stream of people greeting along the way, and they all praised Jiang Qi for his extraordinary might. However, some people know that the reason why Jiang Qi walked like this was because he didn't dare to lean his legs too close, for fear of hurting his life again.
As soon as he walked to the gate of the school with Wang Babu, Jiang Qi was seen by Guan Yu, who was standing on the Dianjiangtai to supervise the training of his children. Guan Yu called the two of them, and greeted them after a few casual words. Hug his fists and said: "The fourth brother is here, and Yide and they have just arrived, and they are washing. Tell me for my brother, and they should come soon."
Jiang Qi returned the salute and said with a smile: "Don't worry, they are also tired, let them rest for a while." The second brother has been working hard for a few days, and he looks like he has lost a lot of weight, so why don't you stop training today, how about you take a break、、、
"So what?! Someone 、、、, order to go down, stop training today, and rest the whole camp! Hearing Jiang Qi's words, Guan Yu was not hypocritical, and directly called a person next to him to order.
After ordering everything, Jiang and Guan walked side by side to the big tent of the Chinese army, and just said two words in the tent, Tong Fei, who was covered in dust, and his hair was still wet, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, who had just taken a bath, came in one after another.
Zhang Fei still couldn't change the problem that others came before they arrived, and when he came in, he couldn't help but give Jiang Qi a fierce hug, which made everyone laugh.
Jiang Qi looked at Zhang Fei, who had already grown a beard and looked even more fierce, helpless. This brother is good at everything, but the noise is too loud, and a 'fourth brother' in his ear almost didn't stun him.
After laughing, everyone began to talk about the results of the training in the past two months, not to mention that these Jiang family disciples who all have some skills are quick to get started, and they are all praised in the narration of several people.
After listening to everyone's story, Jiang Qi also understood a rough idea, and then said that he planned to hold a martial arts competition between the entire camp in three days. These include individual and overall battalion battles.
Hearing Jiang Qi's simple explanation, everyone also had a basic understanding, and only some details needed to be discussed together.
In the end, it was decided that this drill would compete for the strongest battalion of marches and cavalry, and of course the cavalry was a contest between the two teams.
Excluding the clans, there is a competition between individuals such as the strongest samurai and knights. The samurai requirements include physical strength, martial arts, and archery, and each is divided into three. Knights including horsemanship, assassination, and mounted archery are also three of each.
In order to save time, the preliminary round starts tomorrow, and the contestants will first select from each tithe, and finally the first place in each will participate in the competition three days later.
After a few people discussed the competition plan, it was already completely dark, and Jiang Qi originally planned to get together with a few brothers, but during the discussion, several brothers had already made bets with each other.
First of all, Zhang Fei shouted that he wanted to take all the first places in the cavalry, and Zhao Yun didn't do it, the people who were originally going to be superb in riding and archery were all in his team, but now someone actually shouted at him.
After discussing for a while, the two finally agreed to bet on two jars of wine to see whose team was more powerful. Of course, Tong Fei did not show weakness, and also gambled with Guan Yu on two jars of wine, and it was logical that Jiang Qi became their witness.
After the matter was discussed, several people were also impatient to go back and select the samurai to leave one after another, not giving Jiang Qi the opportunity to prepare a banquet at all.
Looking at the empty tent, Jiang Qi shook his head and smiled, it seems that there is really competition to make progress.
Picking up the bundles of bamboo slips that he had just recorded, Jiang Qi was going to find a few knowledgeable people who had been selected from his children to join the army, and asked them to make specific arrangements for these matters. As soon as Jiang Qi came out of the tent, he saw a half-old child in leather armor carrying two stone locks to fight his strength.
Seeing the young man, Jiang Qi shouted with a smile: "Cheng'er、、、、"
Hearing someone call the child to find his reputation, he looked at the child and saw that it was Jiang Qi greeting.
Seeing that Jiang Qi's child didn't dare to stay, he quickly threw down the stone lock and wiped the sweat on his face indiscriminately and ran over, came to the front, and then said to Jiang Qi in a respectful mouth: "The disciple has seen the master!" ”
This kid is none other than Jiang Cheng, the eldest son of Jiang Qi's old housekeeper Jiang Da, Jiang Qi used to just want this kid to have nothing to do with them to practice martial arts and compete for some skills, but later I found out that this seemingly honest boy has some talent for martial arts.
In order to thank the loyal servant Jiang Da for his loyalty to his family, Jiang Qi accepted him as a disciple before going up the mountain to train scouts.
"Get up、、、 Jiang Qi tapped his chin and looked at the sweaty disciple.
"Yes, master!" Jiang Cheng is quite sensible, and after greeting the promise, he got up and did not forget to take a few rolls of bamboo slips from the hands of his master Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi was not polite, he had also been a disciple of others at the beginning, and he knew that this was the disciple's respect for the master, so he handed over the bamboo slip to him. casually asked: "How many catties of stone locks can you dance now!" ”
"Master Hui, you can now dance the thirty-pound stone lock, and at the same time you can lift the eighty-pound stone lock," Jiang Cheng replied cleanly.
"Hmm" Jiang Qi nodded and was quite satisfied, he must be only ten years old, and there was still a lot of room for improvement in his wrist strength, and then asked: "Is the prescription given to you by the master brewing every day?" ”
"Soak for two hours every day according to the master's instructions, but it's just 、、、、" Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Qi with some hesitation, but didn't dare to say the following.
"Is there a pain in the heart?" Jiang Qi asked.
"Master knows、、、、" Hearing Jiang Qi's words, Jiang Cheng blurted out.
"Of course, I have been soaking in medicinal soup since I was five years old, and I was chiseled off three layers of skin by the medicinal soup axe, so I have my current skin!" Jiang Qi said as he lifted his sleeves to show him the smooth, healthy-colored skin on his arms.
Then he said, "But the suffering suffered at that time was later rewarded, and now the division recovers much faster than ordinary people after being wounded, and if you don't look carefully after the wound has recovered, you won't think that you have been injured there before." ”
"The disciple knows, and the disciple will definitely insist on soaking the medicinal soup every day in the future." Jiang Cheng replied with a heavy nod after hearing Master's words.
"Well, because you have passed the first best foundation building time, your soaking prescription is mainly to transform the skin, just like your uncle Yun and Fei's original, compared to the pain of washing the muscles and marrow for the teacher, if you feel hard, you can give up, and the teacher will not blame!" Jiang Qi looked at the disciple who had just reached his chest and said.
Jiang Cheng heard the master's words and quickly knelt down: "Master, don't drive the disciple away, the disciple already knew all kinds of hardships after deciding to practice martial arts, and the master assured that although the disciple is dull, he will work hard." ”
"Well, the heavens will descend on the Si people, and they must work their muscles and bones first, I hope you will remember the words of the master. All right! Go back early today, and in two days the master will start teaching you martial arts! Jiang Qi looked at the sensible Jiang Cheng and said.
"God has given you a good pair of muscles and a master with superb martial arts, and your achievements in the future depend on whether you work hard."
After speaking, Jiang Qi, who had already arrived at his destination, took the bamboo slip in Jiang Cheng's hand and walked into a tent next to him.
、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、
For three days in a row, Jiang Qi spent time in the school field. And the children of the Jiang family in the guard camp exploded in each barracks after hearing Jiang Qi's order. You know, I've never heard of such a competition before.
But for Jiang Qi, who did not follow common sense, it was normal, and after three days of selection, the thirty-three sons of the infantry battalion and ten of the cavalry stood out. Except for the scout team directly under Jiang Qi, which was recommended by each other, the rest were all tried.
Jiang Qi also saw the familiar faces among the selected disciples, Jiang Feng, Jiang Bo, Jiang Xing, and Jiang Biao were impressively listed, and their results were all good.
And the other forty-three people, most of them came from the side branches, but Jiang Qi didn't expect it. Originally, he thought that maybe the generals and diners would be the majority, but if you think about the family background, you can understand.
Most of the children of the family have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and as long as there is an outstanding person to lead, they may reach the peak at any time, which is also the terrible thing about the family.
And for those who are concubines or side branches, if they want to stand on their own seat from many children, that is not to learn martial arts desperately. They are just waiting for a chance to get ahead, and today Jiang Qi gave them a chance, and now these children are fools if they don't show themselves in the face of the family's new favorite.
Autumn. In a harvest season, no matter how hard the usual days of hard work, when the season comes, people will feel that everything is worth it.
In a valley near the Jiang family, more than ten hectares of land have been harvested in three days.
Although I don't know why I have to collect so urgently this year, for the long-term workers and tenants of the Jiang family, they won't ask more. The harvest was not very good in a few years, but the Jiang family still paid them food according to the previous proportion, and they had to complete this friendship according to the requirements.
However, in the face of the happiness of adults, children feel that the Jiang family is hateful. If nothing else, in the past, after the adults had harvested the grain in the field, where was their world, they would pick up the scattered grain and exchange it for maltose to eat.
But this year, after the grain was harvested, a group of fierce people came here, and they surrounded more than ten acres of land at once, and no one was allowed to enter again.
For the food scattered on the ground, it has become a good food for all kinds of small animals and miscellaneous birds.
Early in the morning, several chubby voles were looking for food in various straw stalks filled with dew, when a sudden tremor of the earth startled them. These clever little ones hurriedly turned their little eyes, and after a few moments, they saw countless thick legs running towards them from behind the fog that was gradually clearing.
Seeing this, they did not have time to call their companions, and the timid creature went into his lair. At the same time, as the sound gradually increased, the miscellaneous finches that were still greedily foraging for food also flew away in fright.
At the front of the approaching procession were three neatly marched teams of fifty men, all wearing two crotch armor and carrying longbows and quivers, which were full of white arrow feathers.
The samurai wore a short sword in front of his abdomen, and his left hand was hung with a hook to cover it, and the ring-headed sword, which was supposed to hang on his left waist, was hung horizontally behind his waist and pressed with his right hand, ready to be unsheathed at any time.
In addition to the neat costumes, every ten people in the army, you will also see strong men holding huge shields that can block the whole body.
In addition to the neat foot soldiers, the marching team was protected by knights on the left and right. The two cavalrymen on the left and right were wearing almost the same armor, the only difference was that the knight on the left carried a crossbow on his back and held a long iron spear in his hand. The knight on the right, on the other hand, had a riding bow slightly shorter than the usual foot bow on his back, and it was a double bow, and four quivers hung in front of and behind their mounts, and one on his back carried a total of one hundred and fifty arrows.
Beyond the front army, there were also three fifty-man infantry units in the rear rank, and unlike the front team, the soldiers in the team were all armed with long assassination weapons 'guns'.
Now each eight-foot-long spear soared into the sky, and perhaps they were the same as the other sergeants, carrying a quiver and a longbow on their backs.
There is such an elite team near Luoyang, if anyone sees it, they will definitely think that they are Han soldiers. In fact, it is obvious that the clothes they are wearing are not the red of the Han army but the ink color.
The more than ten carriages that entered the middle also showed that their identities were actually private soldiers, but who could have such elite private soldiers. The flag fluttering in the air has made it clear.
In the middle of the team, a strong man with a height of more than nine feet is holding a two-foot-high bowl-sized flag, on which a flag with a white background flutters, a fiery red unicorn embroidered on the front of the flag, and a big 'ginger' written on the back.
And the owner of this battle flag is holding a spear in his hand, riding a tall horse, and embroidering a unicorn on the white cloak behind him, he is Jiang Qi is also.
And it was none other than Jiang Qiqingqi, it was Yan Ming who was captured by three people in the Arrow Tower of Wubao that day.
Yan Ming, who was still worried about the stealing of the camp that day, was still arrogant when Jiang Qi asked people to find him later, and proposed to fight Jiang Qi alone.
Of course, Jiang Qi knew that in order to recover a person, he had to have that ability. Then Jiang Qi simply fulfilled his wish, when Yan Ming, who was struggling with his whole body skills, was convinced when he was thrown to the ground by Jiang Qi for the third time, knelt on the ground cleanly and called Jiang Qi the lord.
Today, in addition to Yan Ming's past, there was also a group of scout camp disciples who were following Jiang Qi, and they had also changed into special armor tailored for them at this moment.
These children are all dressed in black armor, with iron masks, long swords at their waists, short knives in their boots, bows and arrows on their backs, and their arrow feathers are also distinctively dyed black, and the whole team is the most eye-catching from a distance.
I have to say that in order to arm these hundreds of private soldiers to the teeth, the head of the family, Jiang Qun, trusted a lot of connections, not only got the thick armor of the Han army, but also spent a lot of money to get expensive crossbow arrows and riding bows.
Naturally, Jiang Qun's unremitting efforts to build private soldiers also made the clan elders dissatisfied with him, and today has become the time for him to correct Jiang Qun's name.
