Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 48 The Feather Catcher

The day after the Tianjun recruited soldiers in Zhao County.

On the first day, Wang Zheng ordered Wu Sheng to set up nearly a dozen recruiting points in the county. Unfortunately, after a day of work, he only recruited less than a hundred people, most of whom were frail.

Wu Sheng was dissatisfied with this, but he had been instructed by Wang Zheng earlier, so he ordered all recruiting points to welcome anyone who came, and at the same time, each enlisted soldier was rewarded with a bag of rice.

Although Wu Sheng didn't understand such an act of buying a horse bone with so much money, it really has immediate results today.

From what I can see, whether it is the applicants or the people who are paying attention, there are significantly more people than yesterday.

Except for a few loners, most of the newcomers from yesterday brought rice to show off when they went home, which aroused the envy of neighbors, and naturally more enthusiastic ones.

But when they came, it was different from yesterday.

Those who are not physically fit and have some strength, sorry, will not be accepted.

The nearest recruiting point to the county government.

Since the morning, people have been around, either asking for treatment, or joining directly.

There are also many people whispering to each other not far away, pointing and pointing here from time to time.

Among them, there is a young man who is full of dust.

He was not from Zhao County, so he stood alone by himself. He wanted to leave the city today, but when he passed the recruiting point, he stopped abruptly.

At that time, there happened to be a country man who had just successfully joined the army, and happily passed the young man with a bag of rice.

At that moment, the young man's belly groaned slightly, and he couldn't help swallowing a few times.

Only then did he remember that he hadn't eaten for two whole days.

The young man finally couldn't help but turned his attention to the recruiting point, and it took only half a day to see it.

At this time, Wu Sheng also noticed this person, and he glanced at him casually, and his eyes lit up immediately.

As a third-tier soldier, he instinctively felt that this was a good material for a soldier.

A closer look is even more rewarding.

The young man looked thin, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and his spirit was listless.

But the rough linen shirt couldn't hide the swelling of the muscles. It looked very strong, and the skeleton was not small.

If you practice a lot after joining the army and have enough rice, you will be a strong and elite soldier.

Now that he had made his judgment, Wu Sheng began to pay attention to it.

After being punished by Wang Zheng that day, even though he didn't know where he was wrong, Wu Sheng was also quite uneasy, always thinking of making up for his mistakes, and he was particularly concerned about the matter of recruiting soldiers.

While he was paying attention intentionally or unintentionally, the other party looked hesitant, and never came over in his expectation.

At this moment, the young man seemed to be in a restless mood. He took out a jug from his waist and raised his head to drink, but he kept shaking it for a long time, but not a single drop fell out.

Damn, the wine is gone!
Unhappy, he threw the empty pot violently, but the twitching of his mouth and nose caused pain in the wound, and he couldn't help grinning.

He came to Zhao County yesterday because he was heavily in debt, so he came to borrow money from a distant relative here, but not only did the other party not lend a helping hand, but even in the middle of the quarrel, five or six men from the family punched and kicked the young man together. .

The wound on his face was left because of this.

"Forget it, no matter how poor and miserable I am, I will never be a thief!"

"What's more, this group of thieves are nothing but vagrant ants, and the leader of the thieves is even more stupid and ignorant, trying to become emperor in vain. If I join in, wouldn't I be asking for my own death?"

After rubbing his stomach, the young man finally made up his mind, stomped his feet, turned around and was about to leave.

Just thinking of the gang of debt collectors at home, the young man looked sad again.

I have searched all over my relatives and friends but there is no one to help me. At this time, I am hungry, and I feel that the road is long, but there is no way to go. The world is so big that I have no home to return to.

Just when he was at a loss, he heard a shout coming from behind him.

"Brother, stay here."

The young man stopped when he heard the sound, and when he looked back, he saw a heroic young man in armor and saber walking towards him.

It was Wu Sheng, Major of Tianzhu Battalion.

Wu Sheng waited for a long time, but saw that the young man not only didn't go forward, but turned around as if he was about to leave, he finally couldn't hold back, he stepped forward and shouted to stop.

He was not good at words, and he was even less lazy to beat around the bush, so he went straight to the point.

"Brother, do you want to join the Sky Army?"

As the highest officer in this place, and even the faint second person in the Tianjun, Wu Sheng's movement attracted everyone's attention.

Not to mention the recruiting soldiers, all the villagers also cast their gazes over.

"That, no."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the young man was a little nervous and wanted to refuse directly.

Just looking at Wu Sheng's attire, he knew that although he was young, he was the leader of this group of thieves, and he was afraid to speak out, for fear of offending him.

Seeing that he was obsequious and hesitant to speak, Wu Sheng laughed, not caring, and slapped the young man on the shoulder hard.

"Don't be embarrassed."

No wonder Mr. Ah Zheng likes to shoot me like this, it feels good
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he directly took the young man's hand, strode forward, and said with a smile:
"Come on, go write your name, we will be brothers from now on."

"No, General, I am not planning to join you."

The young man was in a hurry, even if he hadn't thought of the words yet, he couldn't control it anymore, so he hurriedly explained.

Just halfway through speaking, Wu Sheng had turned his head, his smile was not fully contained, but his eyes were squinted, and the eyes that shot over suddenly became cold.

"Don't talk nonsense, my heavenly army has only one general."

Wu Sheng spoke in a slow and authentic tone, his voice was not loud, but he was no longer as polite as before.

"What are you not prepared for? Are you not prepared to join my heavenly army?"

Having said that, Wu Sheng tilted his head sideways to the young man: "Huh?"

Feeling the palm of the young man holding him tightened suddenly, the face of a row of soldiers on the opposite side also changed instantly, looking unfriendly. The courage that the young man mustered up in the last moment dissipated in an instant, and he could no longer say the original word.

He looked at Wu Sheng and forced a smile:
"It may be that I drank too much last night, and now my hangover is still lingering, and my speech is a bit slurred."

"General, Major, I am preparing to join the Heavenly Army!"

"Good good."

Hearing this, Wu Sheng let out a burst of hearty laughter, and his eyes became kind again, pointing to the bamboo slips on the lacquer table:

"Do you know how to write? It doesn't matter if you don't. We have already arranged for you to write your name and someone will write it for you."

"Thank you, but I will write my name."

While the young man was signing, his mind was already spinning, thinking about how to get out.

When he was about to finish writing, he was stunned and slapped his head violently.

Have you lost your mind? How can I write my real name?

"Well, do you still have words?"

Wu Sheng was a little puzzled by his actions just now, but the other party had joined the army and didn't bother to care about it, so he just glanced at the new line on the bamboo slips and asked.

At present, in the Heavenly Army, only Ah Zheng has a character.

"what is your name?"

The young man opened his mouth, thought for a while, then laughed dryly, and replied bitterly:
"Pan Zhang, styled Wengui."
