Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Jinyang, recruitment office.

Troubled times, especially troubled times like the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Conscription has always been the most troublesome thing for various princes.

Going from house to house to forcibly recruit soldiers, it seems that the number of soldiers obtained is quite large. In fact, this kind of soldiers are often the least motivated, but when there is a war, it is okay to wave the flag and shout when the wind is favorable.

Once they encounter a tough battle, these people are often the first to defeat the deserters.

When fighting these days, one fights with fierce morale and refuses to retreat.

Everyone likes elite soldiers, but not everyone can create them.

Despite the fact that a very small number of elite troops suffered more than half of their casualties, there was still a difference in combat power.

Generally speaking, as long as the casualties exceed one-third of the army's casualties, or the formation is broken up, it will be defeated in an instant.

The reason is closely related to the military household system at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Because wars are frequent, huge numbers of troops are needed.

Anyone who joins the military camp, if they cannot lose their military status and return to civilian status, will be serving as soldiers for the rest of their lives. Even if they have children in the future, they will directly enter the military status.

In this era, few people are willing to take the initiative to join the army unless they are forced to live. certainly.

There are always exceptions.

There were dozens of long queues at the Jinyang recruitment office. Lu Bu, who was in charge of recruiting, even appointed dozens of Dianjun lieutenants. Even so, he was still busy.

I heard that Jinyang champion Hou Zhengbing.

Many people even trekked from other counties to join the army.

There are two reasons.

First of all, everyone knows that Zhang Wu's men are soldiers and are paid extremely well. Even if they die, they can benefit their families.

Secondly, Bingzhou has been invaded by foreign tribes all year round, and Zhang Wu, who pacified the Wuwan and Xiongnu tribes in one fell swoop, may be a cold-blooded executioner in the eyes of outsiders, but in the eyes of Bingzhou people, he is a real hero.

This time Zhang Wu wanted to use troops against the Qiang, Hu and Xianbei again. Blood feuds had accumulated for generations, and the people of Bingzhou wanted to rush to the depths of the grassland to drink the blood of the foreigners.

In less than a month, the originally planned 20,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry had been selected, and the Bingzhou generation had also recruited 50,000 county troops to guard various places.

Bingzhou originally had a small population, and the combined area of the state had a population of less than one million. It received 70,000 soldiers, and almost all men of suitable age were enrolled in the military.

It's like a joke that a good man should not be a soldier.

"Eighteen years old and no parents at home?" Captain Dian smiled bitterly and covered his identity card. He has seen this situation too many times since he took office.

Other conscripts who lie about their age are just to avoid military service, but Bingzhou is an interesting place. Most of them lie about their age. He wanted to fish in troubled waters and entered the military camp.

Looking at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in front of him, he waved helplessly:"Baby, go back quickly, you don't look like eighteen, don't make it difficult for me. The young man was dissatisfied and immediately jumped:"You are such a ignorant man. If I say eighteen, it means eighteen. Let me in quickly and I will tell the champion personally!""

"The champion is busy with the military. You can see it just by asking. Don't mess around and go home quickly."

"What nonsense! Don’t think that I don’t know that the champion himself joined the army at the age of fourteen and made outstanding achievements? Now I am one year older than him, why can't I enter the military camp?"

"I'm too lazy to tell you."

The captain reached out to grab the young man, trying to drive him out. Unexpectedly, the young man shook his shoulders, grabbed the opponent's elbow with one hand and pressed him down.

For a moment, the recruitment office was in chaos.

The military tent at the rear

"Report! ~General, at Chen Xiaowei’s recruitment base, there are young men who are under-aged and insist on joining the camp."

"Don't hurt anyone, just send them home."

Lu Bu was leaning on the desk, not even having the time to raise his head. There were more people, and military affairs were naturally busy.

It's a pity that Zhang Wu didn't even assign a civilian position, and he had to handle all the trivial matters of recruiting soldiers.

Thanks to when he was under Ding Yuan's tent, Lu Bu served as the military chief for a period of time, otherwise these trivial things would be enough to drive him crazy.

"General, the young man restrained Colonel Chen with one hand. Three or five big men could not get close. Only then did Colonel Chen ask the villain to come over and pass the message?"

"Can you restrain Chen Si with one hand?"Lü Bu shook off the bamboo slips and then raised his head.

The few captains of the Dian Army he selected are not enemies of ten thousand people, but they are more than enough for any army general. They are definitely not something that can be overthrown. It was knocked over.

Maybe he found a treasure.

Lu Bu asked:"How old is that man?""

"He claimed to be eighteen, but when he was excited, he let it slip that he was only fifteen."

Well, at the age of fifteen, he was able to control Chen Si with one hand. He is really a talent.

Lu Bu immediately fell in love with talents.

The old brothers who had followed him had each achieved a good position in Cao's camp. It is impossible for him to stay under his hand and act as a general.

If the boy is good, Lu Bu is going to train him and keep him under his account. If not, it is also good to be a bookkeeper.

After making up his mind, Lu Bu immediately stood up :"Let's go and have a look with me."

In front of the stronghold, a pot of porridge has been cooked.

The appearance of the young man can be regarded as adding a bit of vitality to the tedious and boring recruitment.

The men who applied for recruitment formed a circle around him. In the middle, Chen Si led a few soldiers to surround the young man.

There were also those who were watching the excitement and making no fuss.

It was a mess, just like a vegetable market in a busy city.

The young man took off the linen package and revealed a nine-foot-long knife.

He did not hurt anyone, and only used the back of the knife to fight off the besieging soldiers..

His swordsmanship and martial arts skills are remarkable.

When Chen Si saw that he could not help himself, he lost the long sword in his hand and became a bachelor:"Baby, I admit, I was wrong."

"Why don't you let me in quickly?"

"It should be noted that there are military orders. The champion has said that no one under the age of 18 is allowed. If I open this hole and another child under 18 asks to join the army, how can I refuse? I have already sent someone to call General Lu. Can you If I can't enter the camp, I can't be the master. Seeing that he was also a reasonable person, the young man stopped making nonsense. He put away his long knife and cupped his fists at Chen Si and said,"Thank you very much.""

After a while, a burst of cheers burst out in the distance, and the surrounding crowd separated into two rows.

The young man was also suppressed by the power of Lu Bu who was walking from a distance. He took two steps back with his long knife in his arms and a pair of His eyes were fixed on the fiery red shadow.

He muttered secretly:"What a strong aura, this person must be a foot tall."
