Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

"I want to be rich, to be famous..." Brother Shao lying on the old collapsed bed was sweating profusely, talking in his sleep. It was just getting bright outside, and on the blackened wooden windows, the faded torn paper was rattled by the wind.

In a trance, he felt that he was in the previous life, and his seriously ill mother wanted to eat watermelon before she died. It was winter, where could I buy watermelon? He was very sorry. There are more problems. When the mother dies, there will be a funeral. How can the family have money because of the huge medical expenses?

The most difficult thing to let go is the living person, his sister. Later, my sister married into a relatively wealthy family in a hurry, and most of his education expenses were borne by his brother-in-law's family, but he vaguely knew that his brother-in-law was not good to her;

One day I will stand out, earn a lot of money, and make up for all of this!

"elder sister……"

At this time, Guo Shao was shaken awake, sat up suddenly, opened his confused eyes and stared blankly at the person who woke him up. The woman's voice said: "Guo Lang, you are having a nightmare."

"I'm having a nightmare." Guo Shao repeated mechanically.

Yulian turned her head, avoided his swollen left face from his sight, and handed over a wet towel. Guo Shao wiped his face indiscriminately, then turned over, pushed the wooden bed away and started rummaging.

Yulian asked, "Do you have a sister?"

Guo Shao didn't answer, and immediately found the title deed from the hidden compartment under the bed. Yulian looked at him in amazement, Guo Shao said: "This shop has a good location, there are many people coming and going, and you can make a living by doing whatever you want, it's still useful for you to hold it."

"Although Guo Lang and I are old friends, you don't have to...be so kind to me." Yulian said this, but she didn't mean to refuse, she should really need this. She asked again, "Why don't you keep it for yourself?"

Guo Shao said without turning his head, "Northern Han Khitan coalition troops went south, everyone in Tokyo knows about it. The Luzhou Zhaoyi Army was defeated, and the Imperial Army frequently mobilized troops. The expedition is likely to be in the near future. I am going to fight, and I can't control the shop."

In the world of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, An Chongrong of the Later Jin Dynasty expressed the secret of heaven with a saying, "The emperor would rather have a kind? He who has a strong soldier and a strong horse is the ear." Of course, you have to be alive to make military achievements and climb up.

Yulian didn't try to persuade him, she just whispered: "You still miss Madam..."

Both she and Guo Shao had stayed in Li Shouzhen's residence, obviously the wife was referring to the Fu family. The little daughter-in-law Yulian was usually timid, but Guo Shao discovered that she was very smart and knew a lot. He shook his head calmly: "The only ones worthy of... loving are those who really care about you. I will treat whoever treats me well; it's not because she is rich and beautiful that she deserves to be paid by others. She is not someone like you."

When he said this, he was very serious, as if he was opening his heart to the world. Yulian also understood, she raised her head, the morning light streamed from her eyes, her smile was not a smile, it was not commensurate with her usual timid image.

After all, Guo Shao found a clean linen and took a bath with well water early in the morning. It is expected that during the cold spring, those who dare to dig the well water directly to take a bath must be in good health. It is said that changing clean underwear before combat can effectively reduce the risk of wound infection after injury. After Guo Shao arrived in ancient times, he also formed a habit of painting ladles in the same way. If there is an opportunity before putting on armor, he must take a bath and change clothes.

The breast plate armor just built is hanging on the wooden frame in the bedroom. Guo Shao doesn't plan to wear it today, he is not going to go to war yet, so there is no need to dress up differently. He wore ring-lock armor as usual, and his full body armor weighed more than 50 catties. He had to ask Lao Huang to come in to help him put it on. Then he took a protective knife hanging on the wall, and he did not bring any long weapons, bows and arrows.

When Guo Shao came out of the bedroom with his saber in his hand, he had turned into an iron man covered in iron armor. The heavy metal had a cold and terrifying luster, and he walked with a clanging sound and heavy steps.

Seeing the leader of the owner's house, Lao Huang showed awe in his eyes, and Yu Lian outside the door also looked terrified, and the two bowed down to salute Guo Shao. The gentleness on Guo Shao's face also disappeared due to the armed forces, and a sword eyebrow showed a calm and majestic aura, and the usual brother Shao turned into a ten general of Guo.

After a while, a soldier outside the shop called Guo Shijiang. Guo Shao strode out the front door.

Traffickers and pawns on the street avoided, and no one dared to provoke a group of armored sergeants, even if they did not have guards of honor or even walked. Wufu of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms had a high status. Most of the samurai from Tokyo to other local cities were professional soldiers who fought and killed people all the year round.

Walking to the school ground in the north of the city, soldiers from homes and stations in the city also arrived one after another. For a while, the sky was covered by dust and mist, and the sea of ​​people looked like a sea of ​​molten iron and steel.

The family members of professional soldiers migrated with the army, and the Imperial Army has been stationed near Tokyo for a long time, so most of their homes are also in Tokyo. When there is no fighting, except for the troops who are on duty in turn, other soldiers can often go home to rest, and they can also take the military pay and food back home; therefore, many people, like Guo Shao, came straight from home to assemble.

Tens of thousands of people are in a school field. It was a bit messy at first, but when the time came, the ranks began to be rectified, and the commanders counted the number of people and reported it. The whole form is different, but the procedure seems to be similar to that of Guo Shao in modern military training. The soldiers stood with their legs apart and their heads held high. The ranks were very neat and orderly. At least it seemed that the Imperial Army looked a bit elite.

This group of people is not only uniform and well-dressed, but there are also some invisible things. Just like the armor that Guo Shao wears weighs more than 50 kilograms, if you don't have the strength to wear such a heavy armor, it will be difficult to walk with weapons and other things. There are also those long-distance magical arms. Those who are powerful have been trained since childhood. Generally, they need to practice for at least three to five years.

The commander of Guo Shao and others is Zhang Yongde, the commander of the front of the palace, but it is not so easy to see the commander. It has been a long time since he didn't even see the shadow of the commander of Zhang.

It took a long time before I saw a group of heavy cavalry holding banners and guarding a general coming from outside the school grounds. Only some of the cavalry were wearing red cloaks. They rode past in front of the army formation, and Zhang Yongde passed by without seeing his face clearly.

Then I heard someone yelling in front of me: "Privy Council order, go out in five days! You all have your supplies ready, and you will go to the barracks in three days. If you don't expect it, you will be punished as leaving your post without authorization. There must be no mistakes!"

The general on the inspection platform stood there for a while, and after a circle, he got on his horse and swaggered off. After a while, Guo Shao, the commander of this group of troops, came back on horseback. The commander was called Wang Degong. He was a middle-aged man with a round face and a black beard. Guo Shao recognized this guy, because the commander was the general who directly commanded them.

According to the establishment of the forbidden army in the Zhou Dynasty, combat training usually takes a commander as a unit, with 500 people; the senior generals generally do not directly intervene in specific affairs below the command, and only the commander is the direct leader of the middle and lower ranks. There are five capitals under the command, each with about a hundred people, and the chief is a military envoy or the chief of the capital; there are four teams under the command, each with more than 20 people, and the chief is called ten generals. Guo Shao is one of the ten generals, with more than twenty soldiers under his command.

Commander Wang Degong came to the front of his team with his own soldiers, got off his horse, and immediately shouted: "Yang Biao! Where is the capital Yang Biao!"

When Guo Shao heard that Yang Biao was called, he immediately raised his mind, because Yang Biao was the head of the capital where he was.

At this time, a big man with a horse face squeezed out of the queue. A general next to him immediately scolded: "Yang Biao, are you convicted?"

The horse-faced man said angrily: "They gambled and cheated, otherwise I wouldn't bring someone to smash him|The mother is a mess... The attack was a bit harsh, and I disabled a person..."

"Crack!" The horsewhip was thrown without warning, "You don't know how to live or die!" He turned his head to look at Commander Wang's expression after cursing, and seeing the bearded man nodding slightly, he sternly said, "Drop your weapon, unarmor, and hit me!"

Hundreds of people stood still and did not dare to show their breath. Yang Biao was immediately pushed to the ground by several soldiers. Soon he became very ridiculous, with his upper body stripped off, but he was still wearing a helmet, which looked like he had been shaved.

"Crack! Crack..." The sound of the whip hitting the flesh with strong wind was frightening. The big man with a horse face who was pressed to the ground gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.

Fortunately, Commander Wang raised his hand after a few lashes, "Okay, I don't have time to heal his wounds, remember to come back and settle the score. Yang Biao, don't be the head of the capital, and be demoted to the ten generals of the fourth team in Bendu. Yang Biao's ten general in the fourth team of Bendu is Guo Shao?"

Guo Shao was stunned after hearing this, and hurriedly said: "The last general is here! If you return to the king's command, the last general will be the ten generals of the fourth team."

"You replace Yang Biao and be the head of the capital." Commander Wang said calmly.

Guo Shao was at a loss as to how he, a little ten general, could remember himself so clearly, commanding more than 500 subordinates. And how can He Dehe suddenly go up several levels, and directly become a centurion (dutou) from a small captain?

But it is obviously unwise to talk nonsense with the commander at this time, Guo Shao quickly responded: "Thank you, Commander Wang, for your promotion and cultivation!"

Wang Degong cast his eyes, and even showed a smile: "You are a ten general, but you can be commended by Commander Zhang Du by name, how dare you not look at me with admiration?"

Guo Shao was speechless, he was promoted only by his connections, how could he convince the public? Sure enough, he glanced at Yang Biao who was "plucking his hair", and the guy's eyes were already very unfriendly.

The biggest question is where did I come from? Zhang Yongde is not only a general of the Forbidden Army, but also his brother-in-law, a person who has nothing to do with him at all... Thinking about it, could it be because of Wei Guo's wife, Fu Shi?
