Lei Ming was seriously injured and temporarily left the team, the standard battalion remained silent about it, and a few sixth-grade students who had the courage to complain left the chief instructor with sad faces.

"Insulting the imperial officers in public, the evidence is conclusive and cannot be quibbled, if there is no more tasteless entanglement, the standard camp will report the matter to the Department of Law and Discipline of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Lei Ming will definitely be in prison. ”

A big or small storm made the standard camp quietly suppressed.

Thunder was unlucky, and Takagaki had a hard time.

The pro-guards, the expected scene of competing for places did not appear, teaching the heavy infantry patrol commander a lesson, offending the cavalry and archery patrolmen, the five patrol commanders intentionally or unintentionally let out the words: the captain of the pro-guard was ordered to select the team members, and the patrols should be strongly supported, no matter who wants to go, they can sign up on their own, just go and don't come back, this patrol commander does not eat other people's leftovers.

The pro-guard is known as an elite gathering, who dares to guarantee that it will be selected, in case of a mistake, the new inspector said for the first time at the beginning of his tenure, for the sake of face majesty, he will never be easily accepted, so the cadets forced the ardent expectations in their hearts, and waited and saw the future of the pro-guard in the hesitation.

Although Takagaki was silent and did not like to socialize in the past, he was not alone after all, and two people ignored the warnings of the inspector and the persuasion of the captain, and came to the door to ask for a place.

"Brother, let my brother be the sentry chief?" Meng Yichuan broke into the door without grinning, and begged for the post of sentry chief, but Gao Yuan felt that his heart was hot, one of the few scholars and warriors in the standard camp, and he should not run to the sentry commander if he abandoned the captain, this brother didn't say anything, but the buddy was righteous enough, and he couldn't be selfish, and drove Meng Yichuan out with a wry smile: "Get out, there is no place for you." Lei Ming was seriously injured, and it was difficult to return to the team for a few months, so I went to the two chief instructors Hua and Qin to recommend that you let go and grab the heavy infantry patrol. ”

Meng Yichuan took over as the commander of the heavy infantry, got the letter of appointment, Gao Yuan rushed to congratulate him, thinking that he would select a few people from the heavy infantry first, and then be cheeky to grind the senior brothers and sisters after opening the situation, who would have thought that the iron buddies are good brothers, Meng Yichuan took the letter of appointment and was happy for a while, and when he heard the intention, he turned his face and didn't recognize people.

"Brother, it's good to say anything else, don't mention this matter again. You beat the previous inspector, and instead of avenging him, I will let you choose, how to live in the heavy infantry in the future. You better go to Senior Sister Huayue and Senior Rufeng first, they take the lead, I have nothing to say. ”

The good words didn't work, the threat lured the wind, and Takagaki rushed to leave with a huff. When people are displaced, they are in their positions and seek their own politics, what Meng Yichuan said is also the truth, I am afraid that he will do the same if he changes his position, and he does not have much anger in his heart after he gets angry.

Li Changgong came for the second time, and mocked the poor captain of the guard with a hippie smile for a long time, and then pretended to be a hero who will go to hell if I don't go to hell, Gao Yuan finally had the first personal guard, and he swallowed his anger and lowered his posture at the expense of currying favor, and deceived him into writing a letter of commitment to voluntarily join the Lingbo Feiyan Battalion and fight bravely in loyalty to the empire, and laughed out loud.

"Brother, there are signatures, handprints and private seals, and if you want to regret it, you are waiting to be beaten. Hehe, now the captain orders you to go to the Fifth Patrol to dig the foot of the wall, and if the guards are not formed for a day, you will be an orderly for a day. ”

The orderly raised his foot and kicked, but the speed was not as fast as the captain, and he was beaten and beaten up, begging for mercy and sneaking to the door and cursing: "The master took the golden rice bowl, but ran to be a beggar, digging the foot of the wall, the old rule, you charge and I cover, otherwise one shot and two scattered, Lao Tzu is willing to eat the military stick." ”

The brothers beat and scolded and scolded, the business is not ambiguous at all, the ghost head and the ghost brain run to dig people, how can the road be one foot high and the devil is one foot high, the five inspectors are in charge of hundreds of people, and I don't know whose bad idea, each patrol has sent people to keep an eye on Gao Yuan, he came to the door and said less than two sentences, the inspector ran behind a group of captains and whistle chiefs with a smile, saying that he was here to actively cooperate, sarcastic and sarcastic in and out of words, and openly threatened to win over the object, poor two brothers and heroes can't stand the crowd, and even Gao Yuan will lose patience in every game.

After three days, there was still a captain and a orderly, the standard team gathered, and the personal guards stood in front of the team as usual, the two of them, you look at me, I look at you, in a short period of time, the skin has thickened a lot, and the eyes of hundreds of people are automatically filtered, in the words of Li Changgong, it is how lonely the heroes have been since ancient times, and the brothers are destined not to be mortals, so why bother with a group of rat-eyed soldiers.

Looking for the chief instructor, if he didn't help, he would attract a scolding, looking for Qin Rufeng, let you slap the door loudly, he hid inside and didn't say anything, went to find Senior Sister Huayue, Gao Yuan didn't have that guts. I was at a loss, and just when I was thinking about whether to resign and pick a child, there was no endless road, Yanzifeng unexpectedly visited, and the pro-guard team was bright and bright.

In the office room of the head of the standard camp, Gao Yuan sat in a precarious position, and poured out the current difficulties of the pro-guard team, and the principal did not raise his eyelids after hearing it, and smiled indifferently: "The bitter water is finished, say it, how do you want Lao Tzu to help you." As soon as Takagaki heard that there was a play, he hurriedly took out the recruitment report that had been prepared long ago from his sleeve and respectfully presented it.

At first, the head of the standard camp was careless, but after reading a few lines, he opened his eyes and ordered: "You go and invite the chief accountant and steward." Gao Yuan got up and saluted and left, and the old man in charge watched carefully one by one, stopping from time to time to close his eyes and think, and when the knock on the door sounded, he had a conclusion in his heart.

"It's a good idea, it's doable, and it's more morale-boosting, old man, I approve of it with both hands and feet. The Comptroller and Treasurer read the report and thought for a while and smiled. Seeing the old man's clear support, the director of the standard camp picked up a pen and signed his name, threw the report to Gao Yuan, and scolded him out: "The door of the pro-guard team is full of birds, the first time the standard camp is encountered, you will be given seven more days, recruit dissatisfied people, don't want to finish and leave the camp in your life." The chief accountant stopped him, and said with a smile: "Recruitment has given you privileges, hehe, Gao Yuan, our standard camp foundation is thin, and the battle is even more difficult. ”

Gao Yuan had expected this, and pretended to be embarrassed: "I understand, you have always taught that everything must be rewarded, and that a dead camel is bigger than a horse, so first allocate some silver taels to me so that it can be opened, and then the personal guard will be repaid twice as developed." ”

"With an IOU, Lao Tzu made an exception and was generous. The chief accountant agreed happily, Gao Yuan did not dare to miss the opportunity, and hurriedly wrote down a white note of 50,000 taels of silver for the time being, and the chief accountant reminded him after reading it: "Plus your words to double the repayment in the future." It's just an empty word, Gao Yuan is happy to be generous, and when the two of them sign it, they will slip away with the IOU in both hands, for fear that the chief accountant will regret it.

Gao Yuan left, and the two old foxes in the office room smiled and showed their yellow teeth.

"Fifty thousand taels, no courage, if you dare to write five hundred thousand taels, Lao Tzu didn't frown and immediately agreed, hehe, I didn't expect you to pay back the money at all, someone will take the initiative to settle the account." ”

The report was approved, and a huge amount of money was accidentally defrauded, Gao Yuan couldn't support the smile on the corner of his mouth all the way, and he also took the initiative to say hello when he met someone he knew, which made people think that he had changed his temperament and became active after being promoted.

Early in the morning of the second day, there was an extra table in front of the gate of the Lingbo standard camp, on which a card was placed, and it was suddenly written that the pro-guard recruiting office, Gao Yuan sat behind the table, pretending to be a teacup in his hand, Li Changgong and Yan Zifeng were wearing standard camp student uniforms, and they cursed Gao Yuan in their hearts, but the look on their faces was upright and serious.

The imperial aristocratic titles are divided into six levels: knight, viscount, earl, marquis, duke, and prince, from the knight to the earl, there is no management right to eat, that is, the annual silver is just that, the marquis has a fief, has the right to appoint officials at all levels in the fief, and can have a regular army, as long as it does not exceed the upper limit of soldiers set by the empire, how many people and horses you are willing to recruit if you have money and food, no one cares about you, so the aristocratic circle strictly starts from the marquis, and the first three levels of nobles are almost the same as the rights of commoners.

The law of the imperial aristocracy, the four founding fathers and the ninety-nine founding princes, the titles are hereditary, and the titles of the three generations of blood relatives of the rest of the nobles remain unchanged, and the fourth generation has been reduced from generation to generation. That is to say, the grandfather is a knight, and the title can only be passed to the grandson, and then he is a commoner. Qinghui has been established for thousands of years, and how many aristocratic families have fallen into commoners, now I am afraid that even the Royal House of Nobles cannot say.

In order to inspire future generations and keep them from forgetting the difficulties of their ancestors taking over the world immediately, the Imperial Noble Law has a clear provision that if the children of the nobles obtain the title of samurai, the title will be automatically extended for two generations, which is the driving force for the children of small and medium-sized nobles to join the army.

The earl, the most embarrassing group of the imperial aristocracy, will bring a considerable amount of silver taels every year, and the business and industry are even more wealthy, which can be overshadowed by the prince, no matter how much money can not enjoy privileges, without the support of power, how long can wealth prosper, so they do everything possible to squeeze into the marquis level: they have their own fiefdoms to store wealth, their own officials to take care of the industry, and their own army to protect security.

The prince's edict brings opportunities, and the nobles of Lingbo Mansion are no exception, and they are in urgent need of military protection in the border counties, and the earls leave heirs to inherit the lineage, leading many sons to temporarily settle in the mansion, looking for opportunities in front of the standard camp every day, but unfortunately the Lingbo standard camp has always had strict camp rules, and only a few people competed for the place of the army in a few days, and held a feast in the Lingbo Restaurant to celebrate.

The recruitment office of the pro-guard, the old nobleman who got up early to look for an opportunity, heard his grandson's report and was skeptical, and came forward to inquire with the attitude of trying it out, and the result was that the documents of the standard camp were true or not, and it was suddenly covered with the big seal of the Lingbo Feiyan battalion, and the military seal that could only be used after receiving the order to prepare for war, the old nobleman was still not at ease, and secretly spent money to dot it, and when he heard that the young man sitting behind the table was the captain of the guard personally appointed by the head of the standard camp on the day of the formation of the standard team, he was authorized to form the pro-guard team in public, and rushed over again with his robe, and took out a thick stack of silver tickets before speaking。

"Captain, I am Chang Wancai, the earl of Evergreen City, a little gift is not a tribute, and it should be used as a cup of tea for my brothers. ”

Whether he is close to his hometown or not, as soon as Chang Wancai said that he was from Evergreen City, Gao Yuan stood up from behind the table, put his heels together and gave the old nobleman a standard military salute, and repeatedly ordered Li Changgong to watch the seat and serve tea.

"The earl is too polite, and he was also born in Evergreen City, so he dares to ask the master, but there is someone in the mansion who wants to join the army?"

The young man behind the old nobleman, who looked sixteen or seventeen years old, wore cavalry chain mail, carried a spear and a bow and crossed the sword, heard Gao Yuan's question, took two steps forward and stood and saluted, and his movements were standard and neat.

"Report to the captain, Chang Yunfei volunteered to go out with the battalion, whether it was as a groom or other miscellaneous servants, he would never dare to slack off, I swear by the honor of the children of the nobility: loyal to the empire, fight tenaciously, and move forward bravely along the footsteps of my ancestors. ”

Seeing this, Gao Yuan immediately liked this peer, handed over the form after returning the salute according to military regulations, and greeted with a smile: "After registering, go to the standard camp to participate in the test, as long as the identity check is true and the physical fitness test is passed, you are the fourth member of the Lingbo Feiyan Battalion Guard." ”

"Thank you, captain, Chang Yunfei obeys the military order!"

The young man did not drag his feet, took the resume and the letter of commitment and filled it out, and the grandfather looked at it next to him, and found that the terms were not harsh at all, and it was completely the official establishment of the pro-guards, and then he took out a thicker stack of silver tickets, and shoehorned them into the high wall along with the ones that had been placed on the table before.

"Lord Earl, let Sun volunteer to fight for the country, and bring his own bow, horse, pistol and knife, as the captain I am ashamed, how dare I accept this silver tael. ”

Li Changgong and Yan Zifeng glanced at each other, kept a straight face and did not speak, despise Gao Yuan in their hearts, they want to be **** and set up an archway, this captain of the guard is too undisciplined.

"Captain Gao, you and I are fellow villagers, forgive the old man for taking the liberty of saying it, the lack of funds in the standard camp is well known, you can make this statement, the old man, I am already gratified, and it is reassuring to hand over my grandson to you. You just have to accept the silver ticket, and if there is any difficulty in the future, the old man may be able to help you. In addition, I have prepared a few guards for my grandson, all of whom are children of the family who grew up with him since childhood, and the loyal old man of the empire can vouch for him, and his martial arts are also passable, I wonder if I can let them serve as miscellaneous servants with the battalion?"

Gao Yuan was so happy that he almost jumped up, and accepted a person with a large sum of silver, and brought his own guards and horses, daring to accept one for this transaction and give several for nothing, I knew why I had to go to see people's eyes and do my best.

"Lord Earl, there is a quota in the camp, so let's do it, Brother Yunfei can bring two young guards with the camp, and since then it has been a rule, each noble child can bring two guards, but the horses and equipment still have to rely on each family. ”

"Hehe, what's so difficult about this, the old man has long been prepared, and Captain Gao is selected. Seeing that Gao Yuan was happy, Earl Changqing stood up in a good mood: "You young people talk more, and the old man will take his leave, and go to the city to promote the pro-guards." ”

"Count wait, please accept this paperwork. Takagaki wrote down the letter, filled in the name, the reason, and the amount of silver on the official document that had been printed earlier, and handed the document to the earl along with the remaining silver ticket.

"In the spring of Qinghui 3,216, the vanguard of the Lingbo Feiyan Battalion was ordered by the Ministry of Civil Affairs to go to the Jicui border city to face the battle. Chang Wancai, the earl of Evergreen City, prepared his own war horse equipment, personally sent his grandson Chang Yunfei to join the pro-guards, generously donated 50,000 taels of silver for the country, donated 50,000 taels of silver for military expenses, and sent two additional guards to voluntarily go out with the battalion at their own expense. Captain of the Guards, Commander of the Pioneer Guard of the Lingbo Feiyan Battalion. ”

The document was covered with the vermilion seal of the Feiyan Camp, and Chang Wancai was so excited that he thanked him after reading it: "Captain Gao has thought it carefully, with this document as proof, even if the children of the nobles die on the battlefield, the family will also be protected by the empire, and this old man will remember it." ”

Chang Yunfei's test results came quickly, his speed, strength and skill were all excellent, and the chief instructor of the standard battalion to review his identity then sent someone to pass on the news, and his identity was allowed to enter the camp.

The news of Chang Yunfei's smooth entry into the camp flew to Lingbo Mansion City, the nobles of all sizes flocked to it, the recruitment office of the pro-guard team was impassable, and the swallow wind inevitably made the identity recognized, and the grandson of the Marquis of Ning Ze also joined the standard camp pro-guards, and the nobles scrambled to be the first, and a few families started to line up, and the plateau had to send guard sergeants to maintain order.

I didn't dig a single person in three days, and the number of applicants exceeded the quota in half a day, all of them were children of nobles, and civilians didn't even have a chance to get close to the conscription office.

The pro-guard team recruited, and two strange phenomena appeared in Lingbo Mansion.

The children of the nobles who signed up competed for the position, each with more or less a few girls next to them, dressed in gorgeous clothes and carefully dressed, tall and short and fat with their own styles, the noble lady who showed off her flowers, the most talked about topic in the circle became the pro-guard, and the Lingbo standard camp occasionally had a student soldier go out, and the girls would immediately stop it, the beauty smile killed infinitely, and the information of the pro-guard team members was made public, and she became the dream couple of the aristocratic lady.

At the standard camp instructor meeting, the chief accountant had jealousy, envy and hatred written on his face.

"His grandmother's, Gao Yuan, this kid recruited a team of guards, and attracted several teams of beauties to swagger through the market every day, so that the old man I was impressed, and the guards did not succeed, so I don't have to worry about finding a good wife one by one. ”

Another strange phenomenon made Gao Yuan cry and laugh, the price of black war horses in Lingbo Mansion has been rising, but it is due to the habit of the nobles to pursue perfection, the captain rides a black horse, and the dark clouds and snow that ranks fifth in the war horse spectrum, how can the team members not maintain a high degree of uniformity, dark clouds and snow can not be found, and buying a black horse is not much consumption for each family, and it is not much for the nobles to let their sons and daughters lose their face when they first enter the camp.

Gao Yuan lay on the bed, he would wake up with a smile in his dreams, except for him and Li Longbow, the twenty-three team members each had 50,000 taels, which was 1.15 million white flowers, and the pro-guard team didn't have to worry about military expenses for several years, not to mention that there was no need to pay salaries, even the war horses and equipment were at their own expense, and the two teams of guards said that they were miscellaneous on the table, and when they arrived on the battlefield, they were not the same as the sergeants, so that the nobles could choose to follow the son, the strength of those guards was definitely better than their own young master, and the overall strength of the pro-guard team was only stronger than the patrols, and the captain of the pro-guard team seemed to be not without benefits.

The soldier is the courage of the general, and he has the strength in his hands, Gao Yuan is relaxed and free when the standard team assembles again, Li Changgong is even more high, with the look of the captain first and he is second, two formal members of the camp in advance, Yan Zifeng and Chang Yunfei grew up in a noble family, and their temperament has their own prestige, the four of them went to the front of the stage to stand, even the instructor secretly admired, and after the disbandment, they were even more angry.

Will be the soul of the soldiers, listen to Li Changgong conveyed the glorious deeds of the captain to teach the thundering patrol, two formal team members and four guards, in addition to the temporary acting chief of the standard Qin Chief Instructor and Captain Gao Yuan, in the standard team only recognize military discipline and do not recognize people, a few days down to send more than a dozen people to taste the military stick, the standard team military discipline is solemn, and the student soldiers are disbanded and walk on the road also have a look.

Most of the students of the standard team lamented in their hearts: "The pro-guards, the good soldiers and beautiful women, they will lose the opportunity after a few days, and Lao Tzu regrets it." ”
