Chapter 2: Prison's Long-distance Soldiers Outing the Green Plants to Support)
"Jinu, be tired. When I clean up all the weeds, I will give you the money!" A big man with a big eyebrows was born with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, with his hands over his knees, and a loud roar, as if mountains and rivers could change their color.
Liu Yu moved his muscles and turned his head and smiled, "By this, you are too polite. He agreed to come to help and there is no need to pay."
"I see that there are already many reed marshes growing on the Que'er Lake. When your work is finished, I will set up a boat and take reeds!"
"Ji Nu, go collecting reeds, I'm afraid you have to cross the bridge. It costs a lot, so be careful!"
Next to Liu Jinu, a strong man bent down to work. He was calm and determined. He was just because he was a natural mouthless person. He would easily drool when he talked too much, so he rarely spoke, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he would be a good word.
Tan Pingzhi and Wei Yongzhi were both northerners who crossed the south and came to Jingkou, a famous overseas county, to settle down for more than a year.
Although Liu Yu's family was poor, he often helped them. In addition, Liu Yu had the best martial arts among the few people and had a nickname of a fierce tiger in Jingkou. Therefore, the two admired him very much and always unconsciously thought about him.
Recently, the Di Qin side has been preparing for war and moving frequently, and the Jingkou area has always been the front line to resist the northern iron cavalry.
In order to prepare for the war, the court raised the tax again. Whenever you set up a ship through the bridges in the prefectures and counties, no matter what you want to sell, you have to pay taxes as long as you want to do business. This tax will be cancelled when there is no war on the border, or if there are ten taxes and one tax, it is still acceptable.
However, it has recently increased to 105 taxes, and a boat of reeds can only be sold for a few dollars, and a heavy tax is required, which is quite unprofitable.
Several people piled the weeds on the side of the road. Liu Jinu wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "It's okay. I'll pack the reeds first, and then go to the bridge to see the situation. If the official is in charge of strict management, I will carry the reeds on the bridge and do not set up a boat. If the control is loose, I will ferry the bridge again."
Wei Yongzhi nodded, thinking about something.
"You'll do it after you think about it."
Liu Jinu patted his hands and picked the weeds on his body. Several people sat by the ridge of the field to rest for a while. Tan Pingzhi looked into the distance and sighed: "I really dared not think about such a peaceful life before! How great would it be if my brother and the others could see it."
Tan Pingzhi's family crossed the river from the north of the river and overcome all obstacles along the way. I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles I have overcome. All the brothers of Pingzhi died on the way. Tan Pingzhi brought more than a dozen sons and nephews to live south together.
Wei Yongzhi felt the same way, and his eyes were filled with tears. Liu Jinu held the straw, sympathizing with them, but not too much emotional fluctuation.
After all, although Jingkou was a famous military center in the Jin Dynasty, Liu Jinu, who was just seventeen years old, had never stepped into the military camp, nor had he personally contacted the Hu people's iron cavalry or bows and horses.
"Jinu, I plan to join the army these days. What do you think?" Tan Pingzhi recovered from his infinite emotion and sought Liu Jinu's opinions.
In the eyes of these refugees who traveled south, if they join the army, they would be together with old men. Local heroes like Liu Jinu could naturally not be absent.
Jinu nodded and looked at him firmly: "I am just thinking about it, but I think we should find a good time to join the army, wait a little longer, and don't rush for a moment."
When can you wait for the opportunity?
Tan Pingzhi couldn't understand why it was so easy to join the army, so it depends on the timing.
He had already figured out the recruitment standards of the Northern Mansion Army, and the main thing he was to examine was the fist and foot skills of the person who should be selected.
The most important one is the arm strength of the bow. As long as you can pull a big bow with one stone, you will be considered qualified.
Tan Pingzhi and Wei Yongzhi came from the north. They were good at swords and arrows, and they should pass the exam as long as they went to the exam.
Tan Pingzhi looked at Liu Yu: Ji Nu is stronger than mine. I have seen him hunting in the countryside on horseback, so there is no way to say that his bow and horse skills are. What are he waiting for?
More than a dozen villagers gathered together, talking about each other, and the topics they talked about were about joining the army. Only Liu Yu, a famous evil man in Jingkou, never talked too much.
If the family had no burden, he would also want to join the army, go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and achieve something!
But the problem is that his family has a widowed mother and two younger brothers who are not adults. As the only male in the family, if he leaves, there will be no strong man in the family who can work. He is the eldest son and must consider the livelihood of his family.
Dada dada...
Dada dada...
A sound of horse hooves sounded, and dust flew around the ridges of the fields in an instant. Liu Yu quickly stood up and shouted loudly.
"not good!"
"Protect the rice seedlings!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a team of more than a dozen riders whistling over the loess.
“Get out of here!”
"Get out of the way!"
The leader was the one with red tassels on the pony (an iron helmet used for combat in ancient times), which looked like a team leader. He waved his horse whip and drove the farmer who was still working in the field to the side. Then, a row of horse hooves stepped over and passed by.
From the green seedlings that the farmers worked hard to cultivate...
A burst of smoke and dust rolled up, causing Wang Mi's simple white clothes to stick to a lot of dust. He covered his nose and looked at the crowd.
"This Liu Laozhi is still so unpredictable in leading his troops. How can he establish his authority in Jingkou?"
Duan Xianran: "When his subordinates were in the north, they also heard about General Liu's name. They heard that he had always been brave in fighting and led by the way. But recently, they heard rumors about him in Jingkou, but most of them were not satisfactory."
"However, as the main general, as long as he can lead troops, he can make his soldiers obey the command and respond calmly."
Wang Mi shook her head. Such performance may be considered qualified for ordinary generals. However, as a general or even a general star in the future, if you don’t control it strictly, you will definitely suffer a great loss.
"Mr. Lang!"
"Look! The soldiers of the Beifu fought with the villagers!"
Wang Mi rode on the horse and his vision became wider. He looked closely and saw that it was amazing, and he really set off his posture!
"Let's go there and see them fight!"
Wang Mi turned his horse's head and walked under the big banyan tree on the other side of the road. Duan Xian and Chen Ding looked at each other, quite confused.
What's wrong with Lang Jun? Why did he suddenly become so... active?
The two of them were not able to adapt to Wang Mi's strange actions after traveling through time, but they became accustomed to it after a long time, so it would definitely be strange.
Duan Xian had already bent down and planned to provide support to Wang Mi to facilitate his dismount. Unexpectedly, Wang Mi shook his hand and drove him aside.
With a magical object like a stirrup, is it still difficult to dismount?
He jumped and jumped off the horse's back. His neat skills made both followers stunned.
Is Xiaolang possessed by a god?
His skills have become so good!
Especially Duan Xian, he was looking at him with a kind of admiration: My Wang Langjun is handsome and has good skills. He is really a perfect person with no shortcomings!
In Wang Mi's sight, the brave and combative villagers in Jingkou were fighting against the North Mansion Army, the most powerful army of the Jin Dynasty.
What will the ending be?
