To the north of Luoyang, on the side of Mang Mountain, there is a county with clear rivers and mountains and rivers. Although the name of the place where it was governed has changed several times, this place is one of the traditional eight passes of Luoyang, Mengjin.
To this day, it is still an important place to defend Xijing. It is also a major crossing on the Yellow River and an important passage connecting Heyang and Heyin. When the imperial court moved westward to Luoyang, its status was further improved, and military defense was paid more attention to.
According to the deployment of the Privy Council, an additional 2,000 imperial troops were stationed in Heqing County. Under the Guards Department, 500 Longjie Army cavalry were stationed in Baipo Town on the south bank.
The place where Zhao Guogong Liu Fang served was also here, thirty miles away from Luoyang. It was very close, but it was in a semi-closed management state. Since Emperor Liu once again stepped up the training of the army, the Forbidden Army
The original laziness in the atmosphere was swept away, and it was as if we were back in the past.
According to the military system of the Han Dynasty, the captain of the cavalry of the Forbidden Army has a rank of seventh rank. In the Forbidden Army, nineteen-year-old captains are already rare. Therefore, when Liu Fang parachuted in, it still caused some waves, although it was only
It is insignificant if it is limited to the main camp and the team.
Letting Liu Fang stay outside the capital has not reduced some of the reasons for paying attention to him. And with the growth of his knowledge and the training of his abilities, it is not a problem for him to deal with problems in a team.
The first is his natural suppressive aura, the second is the civil and military skills he has honed since childhood, and the third is that he has also fought thieves and seen blood, and is not the kind of "airborne soldier" who relies purely on his family background.
Therefore, after serving in the army for less than half a year, Liu Fang had already managed his team to be obedient, and commanded and trained them with ease. After receiving information about Liu Fang's performance in the army, Emperor Liu could not help but comment.
He said, this guy is really good at leading troops, he doesn't look like a novice at all.
On a February day when the grass was growing and the orioles were flying, Liu Fang led his small team of troops out of the Mang Mountains, completed their inspection and training mission, and returned to the military camp outside Baipo Town.
Baipo Town is also a new Han Dynasty town that has emerged in recent years. It is close to mountains and rivers, serves as an official road, and faces the ferry. Therefore, it is very prosperous. There are more than 700 households in and outside the town, accounting for almost one-fifth of Heqing County.
of the population.
Zhendian has a city and a pond, which are made of rammed earth. Some parts are still masonry structures. In terms of sturdiness, it is not inferior to the county towns on the north bank. In terms of environment, it is even better. In fact, Heqing County has already invited
I wrote to Luoyang and hoped to move the administrative office to the south, but I never got approval.
It was lunch time, and the smoke in the town was curling up, full of the breath of life. Even from a far distance, you could still feel the hustle and bustle of the town, and the faint aroma of the food in the air was even more appealing.
"What, are you all hungry?" Probably because the outdoor training was too tough this time, everyone was hungry. When he saw the knight following him, Liu Fang asked.
One of them, who kept looking towards the town, chuckled and replied: "I feel really hungry in my belly. My stomach has growled several times. Captain, do you want to express your feelings?"
Liu Fang was able to win the hearts of this team of soldiers because of his heroic behavior on weekdays. He had previously used his own money to beat the teeth of all the soldiers in the team.
"My little military salary is not enough!" After getting along for a long time, he has a better understanding of the temperament of his subordinates. He knows that the person who spoke is joking, so Liu Fang shook his head repeatedly: "I'm not like you, most of them have a family! I still have to
Save money and marry a little girl!"
"With such a handsome appearance as the captain, how can a young and talented man like us ordinary men still worry about a wife?" The chief said immediately, and winked at Liu Fang: "If you are so depressed, I know a place where you can wait for a vacation.
At that time, do you want your subordinates to make arrangements? I guarantee your satisfaction..."
As soon as these words were said, the surrounding officers and soldiers immediately started booing. In the military, apart from daily training, inspection tasks and necessary entertainment activities, the most common thing that resonates is nothing more than drinking and sex.
Moreover, everyone also knows that Liu Fang is still a young boy. In this regard, Liu Fang is actually a master of theory. When he was in the palace, he understood everything, but he never put it into practice.
Of course, some people who have experience in this team can tell the truth from lies. Therefore, he can still joke about it from time to time, which means Liu Fang is magnanimous.
However, he glared at Na Shichang and scolded: "I think you still need practice. Since you have so much energy and nowhere to vent it, I will give you a chance. After you return to camp, go help feed and wash the war horses!"
"This is a military order, do you dare to disobey it?" Liu Fang raised his eyebrows, and his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp.
"I accept the order!" The commander shivered subconsciously, then straightened his back and immediately obeyed the order.
"Aren't you all hungry?" Seeing his understanding, Liu Fang softened his tone and his face returned to normal.
In the expectant eyes of the group of people, Liu Fang took the lead and took the lead: "Go back to camp and eat! Now, when you are being ordered, you are so excited that you dare to leave your post without authorization and go to the town to hide from laziness? Army staff?
Doesn’t it hurt when you hit your body with the French whip?”
The military camp and Baipo Town were separated by less than three miles. The camp was quickly returned to the camp. The camp was arranged in a strict and orderly manner, just like the Han army. Because it was a cavalry camp, the space was large enough for the soldiers to gallop.
Various facilities are also very complete, including arsenal, school yard, grain yard, stables, and barracks. In terms of staffing, in addition to the regular Longjie soldiers, there are also clerks, Xuan Weilang, grooms, military doctors, and veterinarians.
, cooks and maids temporarily hired from the surrounding areas.
This is a military base, and it is also the most basic and simple configuration of the Han army. There are unified regulations across the country, which are only increased or decreased according to the size. Of course, the treatment of the forbidden troops is naturally
Among them, the conditions for the border army are more difficult, and the requirements for the general local army are lower.
Liu Fang was a famous figure in the camp and was very well-known. He was young and energetic, had strong martial arts skills, was good at riding and shooting, and was also proficient in the art of war. Such a person would be the protagonist wherever he went.
"Liu Laosi!"
After returning to the camp to hand over orders, return to the barracks, wash their faces, and enjoy the camp meals with the officers and soldiers. The food in the military camp has become more and more abundant. Although it is not possible to eat meat every day, it is still a good thing for those who have just finished their training.
, I still have enough food to eat.
Halfway through the meal, someone came to see me. He was the deputy general in the camp. He looked like he was in his thirties. His eyes were small and always squinted, giving him the impression of a smiling tiger.
Liu Fang's name in the army was Liu Si. Because of his young age, he was first called Liu Xiaosi. Liu Fang was dissatisfied with this and did not want to be looked down upon. Later, the nickname "Liu Laosi" became popular.
When I went out, I saw the deputy general, gave him a military salute, and asked what was going on. The deputy general looked Liu Fang up and down several times, smiled more kindly, and said, "Let me just say, how can a person like you be called Liu Si?"
After hearing what he said, Liu Fang frowned slightly, stared at him, and said directly: "Why did you say that? What happened?"
The deputy general said: "Someone is looking for you and wants to see you by name!"
"Who?" Liu Fang asked again.
The deputy general shook his head: "You are very feminine. I'm afraid you are a servant in the palace. General Zhou Ying is dealing with it. Let me call you!"
Liu Fang looked surprised, wiped his mouth casually, and was about to leave. The deputy general pulled him and asked with some expectation: "I know you have an extraordinary background, but I never thought that you are related to the palace. How can you
Can you tell me something?"
Upon hearing the question, Liu Fang chuckled and said calmly: "My name is indeed Liu Si, but when I am at home, my family calls me Shiro! But I am used to hearing Liu Laosi..."
After saying that, Liu Fang left first. Seeing this, the general of the camp hurriedly followed him, looking at his figure thoughtfully. After thinking about it, his expression suddenly changed drastically.
Immediately afterwards, he felt annoyed and stamped his feet vigorously. Before, I had never dared to speculate in that direction. If I had known that this was the case, I would have been more intimate and flattering. I wonder if there will be a chance in the future...
