Li Shushi stayed in Zhaojia Village for two days. On the one hand, he allowed his bodyguards to have some exchanges with the local warriors. On the other hand, he could also take the opportunity to initially select some with better qualifications and strength among the young people who were willing to follow Li Shushi to the frontier.
.
On the other hand, he sent a fast horse to inform the Zhen family of his location so that they could arrange the things needed for the wedding.
Although Tong Yuan had finalized the approximate time of the wedding with Zhen Yi, the old man of the Zhen family, through letters as early as the end of last year, considering that Xihe is located in a border fortress after all, there was no guarantee that no unexpected situation would happen, so he did not set the date at that time.
Time is of the essence. Anyway, Dian Wei is going to be the son-in-law at Zhen's house. The worst he can do is wait a few more days at Zhen's house. It's not like the Zhen family can't afford to wait for such a short time.
But now that we have arrived at Changshan County, which is not far from Zhongshan Kingdom, it would be too reckless to rush over without saying a word. After all, the Zhen family still attaches great importance to this wedding, because it is not just a long-term wedding.
The marriage between the female Zhen Jiang and Dian Wei was caused by the fact that Zhen Yi
From the letters with Tong Yuan, we learned that after getting to know each other for a period of time, Zhen Yi, the head of the Zhen family, had made a decision on Li Shushi's idea of moving part of the Zhen family's property to Xihe. This time, Li Shushi also shouldered the responsibility of going north to fight with this family.
The head of the Zhen family, whose time is running out, is discussing specific matters.
Of course, apart from possessing bargaining power that is rare among men, Li Shushi is just an ordinary time-traveler who is very embarrassing to his ancestors. He is not the Zhen Yizhen who has spent most of his life in the officialdom.
The old man, so the opponent Zhen Yi will face this time is of course our lovely, powerful and invincible Su Xiaoluoli.
So, now please have a moment of silence for our old man of the Zhen family, whose time is numbered. I hope that the old man will not be so angry that his eyes will bleed and the wedding will be ruined because of this loli's overly tough style.
The next day it turned into a funeral.
However, a certain Loli has not been in a good mood these past two days. It is obvious that she still has a lot of resentment towards the Zhen family, not to mention that there seems to be a certain Loli's most powerful opponent living there. Of course.
, a certain loli has always had a very broad intuition in this regard, so it is conceivable that Li Shushi's future life will be quite resentful, probably.
During these two days, everyone except Li Shushi was very busy.
Under the command of Dian Wei and Xu Chu, Li Shushi's guards either went out as a whole army or acted in small groups. They fought with various people in Zhending County for a while, allowing the other side to fully understand the force that competed with the foreign races on the border.
The strength of the troops. Of course, Li Shushi did not gain anything here. At least the opponent's endless tricks and various traps were an eye-opener for them.
Su Xiaoluoli, on the other hand, led the witch doctors and shamans to hold free clinic activities under Li Shushi's instigation. On the one hand, it won a considerable reputation, and on the other hand, it also gave the interns in the crash course more opportunities to practice.
Of course, Li Shushi immediately discovered that because of the existence of these witch doctors and shamans, those young and energetic soldiers and village warriors had received timely treatment and no longer had to worry about recovering HP and physical strength, so they were naturally kept far away.
The physical strength and energy that had not been fully vented were once again devoted to the confrontation, so much so that Li Shushi felt that the movements of these people were a bit disturbing to the people.
However, it is like some people say that men's friendship is built through fighting. As long as there is no real fire in this kind of battle, I believe it can't hurt the harmony. Even if they hit each other a little harder, there are still a group of healers nearby.
Huh? So even though it lasted only two days, enough friendships had already begun to be established among the young people.
Perhaps the two days were too short. No matter how I calculated it, I felt that the time was not enough. However, in the evening of the next day, the liaison officer sent by Li Shushi to contact the Zhen family had returned to Zhaojiacun.
Accompanying him was a steward of the Zhen family, so Li Shushi had to bid farewell to this place for the time being and embark on his journey to the north.
Among the members who went north, Xia Houlan and more than ten soldiers recommended by Xia Houlan were naturally added. These people could directly enter the battle order of Xihe County soldiers without selection, but Li Shushi also told them that they would not receive any preferential treatment.
, even when they arrive in Xihe, they will be completely dispersed, and they will have to fight for a chance to get ahead as new recruits.
Perhaps these people were still a little dissatisfied with Li Shushi's statement before, but after being drilled by Li Shushi's guards for two days under the leadership of Dian Wei and Xu Chu, these young people had a considerable understanding of the combat effectiveness of Xihe County soldiers.
Although there are some distortions in this understanding, Li Shushi feels that this is also very good.
If they arrive at Xihe and feel that those soldiers are also very strong, they will only think of thoughts such as "I knew it a long time ago" or "I will become such a warrior in the future when I fight side by side with these people", and they will naturally feel at ease.
Try your best to integrate into it.
And if they find that their strength is no worse than that of the opponent, or even a little stronger than the opponent, then it doesn't matter. Anyway, Xihe's promotion reward and punishment system has been gradually improved under the auspices of Cheng Yu, Tong Yuan and Cao Ling. Fighting
When you are in school, you look at military achievements. If there is no war on weekdays, you look at senior colonels. If your grades are outstanding enough, you will naturally not be afraid of not getting ahead.
As for the guy who is not strong enough but thinks he is the best in the world, he is not welcome anywhere. However, Li Shushi does not think there will be much market for such people in the army. After all, the army pays most attention to force and military exploits.
In this place, if you don't have enough strength but pretend to be a big-tailed wolf, you will be bullied to death.
Of course, we do not rule out some guys who seem to have a halo behind them, but unless you are a mentally retarded person, you will understand after fighting that if you offend the brothers around you too much, then you will wait for the hole in your back to open on the battlefield.
. Xihe has a lot of combat patrol missions, and it is not too difficult to kill a blind trash.
After leaving Zhending County, the scenery along the way became sad again.
Seeing such a scene, the soldiers from Zhaojiacun all raised their heads proudly, not because they had no compassion, but because they used their hands to protect their own happiness.
As for the happiness of other people, they can only help a little in their spare time, but there is nothing they can do no matter how much they do. After all, the chaos in the world has begun, and natural disasters and various turmoils are coming one after another. Being able to solve their own problems is already
What a blessing.
"In the beginning, we just wanted to protect our village from being harassed by others. After all, compared with those forces that often have thousands of people, a small group of people in a small village like ours is really too small.
.”
Looking at the barren fields in the distance, Xia Houlan's expression was full of bitterness. When he was just an ignorant child in the countryside, his life was simple and happy, but as he grew older, especially when his horizons
Only when he was no longer limited to the small mountain village of his childhood did he realize that the world turned out to be very big and cruel.
"But I am very unwilling to do so. You must know that my friends are not only in a small mountain village like Zhaojiacun. Brother Rong from the nearby Lijiacun is the second sister of the village. He is a very forthright man.
In winter, when the village organizes hunting in the mountains, he always comes to help us. He is a good person.
Hunter, many children in our village have received his teachings. There is also Brother Xing from Shulin Village a little further away. Their cooking cakes are delicious and the people are very welcoming. Every time there is a big gathering, he will
Prepare a dozen or so cakes to sell half and half to the villagers who are living in poverty. And, and..."
Xia Houlan said this and smiled sheepishly, as if he had encountered something that made him feel shy.
"Then I tried to contact friends in other villages, and we all moved forward and retreated together. If one side was in trouble, all sides would support it. Later, somehow it spread to the ears of the village elders. The village elders thought that the boy's idea was good, and the matter was settled.
Come down."
"Hey, Brother Lan, why don't you tell me that you took this opportunity to have an affair with the grain merchant's daughter in Xiguan Town... Ouch..."
Sure enough, spring is a restless season...
"If a man fails to make contributions, why should he take care of his family?" My little friend Xiahou, it's not cute for men to be arrogant.
After talking about this group of young people from Zhaojia Village, the atmosphere in Li Shushi's team seemed to be more lively. Perhaps it was because they were responsible for protecting Li Shushi on weekdays, so Li Shushi's guards always needed to be cautious. Although Li Shushi
Sometimes I would also fight with them
Some jokes or something, but I feel that as long as these people are with me, their facial nerves will often become habitually paralyzed. Perhaps this is also because the two people who command them will immediately become paralyzed when serious business happens, and usually selectively become paralyzed based on what happened.
There must be a great relationship between the two positive and negative leaders.
However, perhaps it was precisely because of this that Li Shushi felt that these two people were as reliable as history said.
Of course, perhaps it is precisely because of this that when Dian Wei showed that rare eager expression for his life-long event, Li Shu felt more interesting. At the same time, he also wanted to seriously serve his silent work.
The guard commander who has put in a lot of effort must handle this matter well. Honest people need to be rewarded, otherwise honest people will become rare animals in the future.
In this atmosphere, Li Shushi and his party once again stepped into the Zhen family's manor.
