Bastard's Counterattack [Rebirth]

Who are you?Scold me?

Hong Lei turned his head to look at Ping Nanhou in doubt, but found that he had no impression.He was extremely nervous and extremely excited, and his mind was spinning so fast that he was almost confused!Total loss of ability to think.

"Zhuzi is presumptuous!" Ping Nanhou scolded again, extremely displeased with Hong Lei's direct gaze.

In fact, most people were a little stunned: those who knew Pingnanhou, looked at King Qing; those who didn’t know Pingnanhou, looked at Qingwang and Pingnanhou, and looked back and forth curiously.

You are more presumptuous!

Turning a blind eye to King Qing?Not saluting, not even saying hello, relying on the old to sell the old, humiliating His Highness in public, so mad that there is no limit!

King Qing's face is the face of all soldiers of the Beiying Army, and it is the duty of his subordinates to maintain the dignity and prestige of the commander.

Rong Youtang was very angry and felt very wronged by King Qing. He had an idea, and without hesitation, he quickly walked up to King Qing, kowtowed respectfully, and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness sees you!"

Guo Da admired Yun with a glance at Rong Youtang, followed decisively and knelt down to salute, and shouted: "The final general will see His Royal Highness King Qing!"

Oh, it turns out that he is the famous Prince Qing!

A group of bewildered young recruits woke up like a dream, and Wu Yangyang fell to his knees, scrambling to let go of their throats and shouting, for fear that they would not show sincerity and respect.

In an instant, the sound was surging and shaking, and the name of "His Royal Highness King Qing" echoed throughout the Beiying Camp.

Zhao Zeyong smiled, he understood Rong Youtang's intentions very well, his complexion was as usual, and he said in a dignified voice with a thick and powerful voice: "There is no need to be too polite, please come up."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Rong Youtang and Guo Da cooperated tacitly, and shouted again, motivating the rest of the large group of dumb-headed, green-headed geese to shout with all their might.

In this way, Zhao Zeyong's position as the absolute commander in Beiying was fully demonstrated!

Marquis Pingnan's face turned blue and red, embarrassed and annoyed: With his title, he doesn't have to kneel, but only salutes.But under the watchful eyes of everyone, only he and King Qing were standing in the audience!

The applicants came from all over the capital, and even many came from other places. Nine out of ten did not know Pingnanhou and came here wholeheartedly to serve under King Qing's command. They inevitably wondered Pingnanhou: who is he?Why don't you kneel?With King Qing's background, military exploits, and super rank title, that guy didn't kneel down?

Could it be His Majesty? !No, it's impossible.If it is His Majesty, we must bow down to Long Live first.

"Please look, Your Highness." Guo Da raised his hand and pointed at Hong Lei, and said with a smile, "This kid has good fists and feet, and he has courage, but his mouth is stubborn."

After seeing Rong Youtang's eyes and gestures, Hong Lei's brain that was about to spin and burnt out gradually regained his composure. He suddenly realized, "thumped" and knelt down on his knees, shouting in a rough and hoarse voice during his juvenile voice change: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your guidance, Cao Min!" Thank you, General, for teaching me martial arts!"

Zhao Zeyong was as stable as Mount Tai, and he never looked at Pingnanhou half the time, so he took the time to quietly watch how the opponent ended up - the comparison is calm: whoever speaks first, loses.

Guo Da has long been dissatisfied with Pingnanhou's madness, so he deliberately left him to drink tea just now, and was busy recruiting troops on his own.It's a pity that he can't do anything face to face: because Pingnanhou and his grandfather Dingbeihou are equal-level heroes of the same generation and acquaintances. Tracing back to the source, Guo Datemporarily can only adopt the strategy of "out of sight is pure" because of his ancestors and rank .

"A man has gold under his knees." Zhao Zeyong told Hong Lei, "Get up and talk."

Hong Lei raised his face, looked at King Qing reverently, and then bowed his head reverently and pleaded: "Your Highness, if I, the grassroots, like gold, I should go into business instead of joining the army. You are a great hero who has made many achievements in defending the country. General, I am lucky enough to witness it in this life, can I kneel a little longer?"

What a fool, you call it disobedience!

Rong Youtang almost laughed out loud on the spot, and looked at Hong Lei with a helpless sigh: In the army, King Qing's orders are military orders, and military orders are like mountains, which cannot be disobeyed.

Sure enough, Guo Da immediately put away his smile and reprimanded him severely: "You must not disobey orders! Your Highness ordered to get up, why don't you hurry up and get out of bed?!"

Hong Lei was startled, his eyes widened, he realized later, he hurriedly stood up, pleading guilty: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I, my brain can't work when I get excited."

"I can see it." Zhao Zeyong nodded solemnly, and said indifferently: "You have not been selected for the Northern Camp, you are not a soldier, and you have not received the corresponding training. It is understandable. My king forgives you for not being guilty."

Hong Lei was grateful and delighted, and knelt down again with a "plop", and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your tolerance!"

"Get up."

"Yes!" Hong Lei didn't dare to delay at all this time, he bounced up immediately, kicked up a cloud of dust, stood up straight like a stake, grinned stupidly, and showed his white teeth.

Even Guo Da, who was deliberately stern-faced, almost failed at this time, the corners of his mouth twitched. After his sweetheart died of illness, he was rarely in a good mood, so he looked at Hong Lei curiously: Tsk, where did this treasure come from?

"Just now General Guo has won many times, why don't you accept it?" Zhao Zeyong asked majestically.

"I'm not dissatisfied with General Guo!" Hong Lei expressed eagerly. He realized that his initial words were ambiguous. It looks like Lian Jiazi, who came out of the Northwest Army, bravely killed the enemy, he is so majestic, I admire him so much!"

Guo Da wondered: "Then why are you not convinced?"

"Martial arts." Hong Lei summoned up his courage and hope, and said seriously: "I will practice hard day and night, and in another ten or eight years, maybe I can, can, can—"

"Defeat this general?" Guo Da raised his eyebrows.

Hong Lei nodded cautiously.

"Oh, in another ten or eight years, this general will be almost forty!" Guo Da exaggerated, intentionally teasing, and shook his head deeply: "It will be a big deal for you to defeat an old man then."

Hong Lei blurted out: "But you are young now, and now you beat me younger, ten or eight years later, I—" Hong Lei suddenly saw Rong Youtang wagging his index finger desperately at him, and he quickly shut up.

Zhao Zeyong shook his head, admonishing earnestly: "Beyond the mountains there are mountains, beyond the sky there are heavens, and beyond people there are people. If you are not as skilled in fighting on the battlefield, you will lose your only life. The enemy will never wait for you for 'ten years or eight years'! Just now As for the confrontation, General Guo only went to the end because he was one of his own, and his intention was to advise, if the two armies were to fight, your body would have already been trampled into meat by thousands of troops, how could you stand up and jump around like this?"

The crowd was silent and respectful.

Zhao Zeyong stared majestically: "Do you know your mistake?"

Hong Lei blushed, his eyes were flushed with guilt, willingly, he knelt down for the fourth time, kowtowed heavily, and said word by word, sober and firm: "Thank you for your teaching, I know I was wrong. General Guo is brave, I Convinced by defeat, I shouldn't be so hard-headed, talking nonsense, like a frog in a well, I, I...too confused and ignorant." After all, he was young, so uncomfortable and ashamed, at the end, he choked up and cried out.

"Knowing mistakes can be corrected, there is nothing good about it." Zhao Zeyong taught in a deep voice, and after beating and admonishing, he softened his face a little, and asked: "Get up, don't make an example."

"Yes, yes." Hong Lei lowered his head, secretly raised his sleeves and pressed his eyes.

"Ai ai ai!" Guo Da was angry and funny, hurried over, lifted him up with his arms, slapped the dust vigorously a few times, and cursed in a low voice: "What's the matter? I can't bear it with a few words? Hold back!"

Hong Lei was sincerely convinced, and forbearance.In just a few hours, he has not yet successfully applied for the recruitment, but he has deeply experienced the thunder and rain of the generals of the Northern Camp, and he has been enlightened to understand the "nonsense" that parents and teachers often talk about.

Rong Youtang let out a sigh of relief: Although Leizi is impatient and reckless, he is not arrogant and conceited. He is warm and cheerful, and has a good nature.

Until this time, Marquis Pingnan, who was intentionally or unintentionally ignored by everyone present, finally lost his temper: he was ordered to patrol the northern camp to recruit soldiers. A slap in the face!

Pingnanhou swallowed his anger and had no choice but to resign himself from the stage in desperation: because he wanted to return to Emperor Chengtian when he returned.King Qing didn't need to say a word, but he needed to learn about the recruitment from the other party.

Ugh!

Ping Nanhou held his hands behind his back, raised a friendly smile, walked closer, and said slowly: "Your Highness is a good means, as expected, his military skills are superb, and this old man admires him." Looking at the government and the public, there are only a few people who can make him call himself "old man" , King Qing is the youngest one, even in front of King Rui, he also calls himself "Benhou".

Rong Youtang consciously retreated to the side.

The astonishment on Zhao Zeyong's face was just right, he seemed to be surprised, but his tone was flat, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why is Master Yang here?"

Pingnan Hou secretly hated: I have already drank three cups of tea when I came here, you clearly saw it a long time ago, what are you pretending to do?His complexion was very ugly, he was trying to maintain his demeanor, and just about to speak—

Zhao Zeyong turned his head, and lightly reprimanded Guo Da in a decent manner: "Ziyan, Master Yang is here, why didn't you report in time?"

The cousins ​​have fought side by side for many years and have a great understanding.

Guo Da understood, and quickly looked at Pingnanhou in "surprise", and said loudly: "Return to Your Highness: Master Yang has inspected the northern camp to recruit soldiers according to His Majesty's order, and it has been about two quarters of an hour. The general will not dare to neglect, and immediately invite him to visit the commander in chief." , but he said that he came out of the city in a hurry, was thirsty and asked for tea, and at the end he was busy arranging for tea to be served. ~"

Zhao Zeyong nodded, and said with a stern face: "It should be so. You must be as considerate as possible in hospitality, and don't be rude. Mr. Yang has high morals and prestige. It's okay for me to take a few more steps."

"Your Highness is lenient and benevolent. The general obeys orders and has been taught." Guo Da respectfully said.

The cousins ​​sang together and successfully won the admiration of many young people: His Royal Highness King Qing is so dignified and dignified, his admonitions are well-founded and persuasive, and when he is calm, he is so modest and magnanimous——

What a worthy Lord!The best way out is to join the army and follow King Qing.He was already powerful and powerful, with great achievements in battle, so he didn't need to compete for the credit of his subordinates or withhold rewards from the court. With such a coach, his own abilities could be valued to the greatest extent.

After Zhao Zeyong taught his subordinates, he looked at Ping Nanhou and said: "The conditions in the Beiying camp are poor, and the soldiers are loyal, but a little reckless. I hope Master Yang will forgive you."

I was also from the army!When I led the soldiers to fight, you were not born yet!

Marquis Pingnan endured several soft knives in succession, endured it forcefully, and said perfunctorily: "Your Highness just joked, how could this old man not understand."

Zhao Zeyong nodded in satisfaction, and told the generals: "You continue, you must do your duty and do your best."

"Yes!" The generals respectfully accepted the order, Guo Da was in a good mood seeing the mighty Marquis Pingnan slumped, and tried to control his demeanor and movements so as not to show gloating.

King Qing is the leader who does his part.Pingnanhou had no choice but to gather his spirits, and followed Zhao Zeyong to inspect the recruiting platforms one by one, spot-checked and verified some case books, and after half an hour of steady inspection, Zhao Zeyong led people into the camp and led Pingnanhou to watch Built the northern camp barracks, until lunch time.

"Master Yang, please sit down." Zhao Zeyong stretched out his hand slightly, and then went straight to the washstand in the corner. It is his unshakable habit to wash hands when entering the door.

Rong Youtang deliberately followed: he valued and was curious about the father of the femme fatale Yang Ruofang, and of course he had to observe closely when he had the opportunity.

"My lord, please drink tea." Rong Youtang greeted enthusiastically.His left arm is injured and inconvenient, and his hand is dangling from the tea tray, but he is actually serving tea with one hand.

Ping Nanhou had a dark face, didn't answer, squinted his eyes and looked at Rong Youtang: young and handsome, a white-faced scholar, following King Qing around, his left arm was injured - he should be the male favorite who fought with Hong'er.

Hmph, he was the one who rushed to kneel down to show his loyalty to King Qing just now!Xiaoyi is attentive, invites pets and flatters, what a little bitch!

"My lord, please serve tea." Rong Youtang's complexion remained unchanged, he didn't feel like he was making things difficult, and he smiled and respectfully invited the guests to have tea, which attracted King Qing who was wiping his hands to look back——

Ping Nanhou reached out his hand to take it at the right time, squeezed out a kind face, and boasted with a meaningful smile: "Your Highness has a lot of talents in the tent, even the tea servant is so clever, and his appearance is neat, it's rare!"

"Your Highness, please have some tea." The tea servant was very busy with the tea, and he greeted King Qing to sit down and drink tea, without any intention of resigning, and directly poked Pingnanhou in the eyes.

"Well." Zhao Zeyong took the teacup, readily accepted others' compliments on Rong Youtang, and responded to Pingnanhou: "Where is it, there are so many talents in your house. Your eldest daughter is the current queen, and the second daughter She also married the number one talented person in the capital, and it has been a good story for twenty years, and even grandsons and granddaughters are not outstanding."

Cynicism!Everyone in the government and the public knows that my second son-in-law, Zhou Renlin, used his appearance to seduce his daughter's heart, is he still a genius?Let's be a handsome man who eats soft food!

Yang Guangwei, Marquis of Pingnan suffered another dark loss, he didn't dare to take the initiative to ridicule Prince Qing's favor.

"Ahahaha," Marquis Pingnan stroked his beard with a hearty smile, shook his head and said, "Your Highness is really flattered. Among the descendants of the royal family, you are His Majesty's number one servant. Can it compare to you?"

Damn it, you dig a hole when you speak!Rong Xiaosi bowed his head respectfully, but he kept staring at Pingnanhou from the corner of his eye.

Zhao Zeyong was calm and composed, and said indifferently: "Father is a sage and martial artist. He governs Heqing Haiyan. There are hundreds of civil and military officials in one place. I don't know how many people can use it. This king is only doing a little bit of power. I only want to share my worries with my father. Guangyou, who was lucky enough to win a few battles, can't be regarded as "capable of writing and martial arts", and can't be compared with Mr. Yang."

Although we know it's kind words, but who doesn't like to hear good words?

"Hahaha." Marquis Pingnan really laughed, he was very useful, and said modestly: "Where is it, this Marquis is an old bone, it is useless, I have asked you to leave, but His Majesty has repeatedly asked to stay! Alas, Alas~" He faced the palace, full of fear, with a look of gratitude.

Zhao Zeyong smiled: "My lord is too modest. You have a long life, but you are still strong and healthy. It will not be a problem to share the worries of your father for decades."

Speaking of this, Rong Youtang was really puzzled: Pingnan Houqi is an 80-year-old old man with black beard and hair!Gifted?Or well maintained?There are rumors that he drinks human milk as water and bathes with ginseng and ganoderma lucidum, but I don’t know if it’s true or not...

After chatting for a few words, the two began to talk about business affairs. During this period, swords were on the verge of breaking out, and the two sides reluctantly endured each other because of business affairs.

Rong Youtang listened intently with bated breath, and he didn't move until the food was brought from the kitchen, put his hands on the food, and persuaded him: "Your Highness, my lord, official duties are of course important, but you must also take care of your health, please eat first. "

Shang said that at this time, it is impossible to drive people back to the city.

Zhao Zeyong stretched out his hand politely, and said politely: "The army has a lot of food and drink, and if you are wronged, you will use some."

"Your Highness can eat everything, how can an old man 'give it up'?" Marquis Ping Nan said with a smile: "When we fought for His Majesty in the past, there was only food that could be eaten, and there was nothing that could not be eaten."

This is the eighth time he mentioned "I have worked hard to fight against the chaos for His Majesty", Rong Youtang counted silently.

Well, let’s not talk about food, there should be nothing to listen to next, Ping Nanhou said that he will return to the city after dinner.

Satisfied, Rong Youtang finally said: "Your Highness, take it easy, this subordinate is resigning."

Ping Nanhou squinted at the puppy in his heart, and said kindly: "Don't you use it together? The old man likes to have more people to eat, it's lively."

Zhao Zeyong said solemnly: "This is against the rules." He said seriously to Rong Youtang: "Go, go back to your post and work hard."

"Yes." Rong Youtang walked briskly, carefully digesting the large amount of news he heard.

I heard that you just stay in the kitchen to boil water and cook!King Qing's employment is really eclectic and ingenious. Even male favorites can properly arrange positions, making it impossible for people to impeach him.

Marquis Pingnan had been upset since he approached Beiying, and he was filled with anger when he stepped into the tent. After taking a few mouthfuls of food, he presumed that he was full, and returned to the city in a carriage without delay.

After dinner, Rong Youtang was still thinking about it, and hurried to the camp after finishing his business.

"Your Highness, Mr. Guo, Ping Nanhou has gone back?" Rong Youtang was a little disappointed.

"I left in a hurry." Guo Da pouted leisurely.He put aside his sweaty and dusty clothes, fetched water to wipe himself, and quickly changed into clean ones.In the morning, he frequently went off to test the martial arts of the school candidates, which brought back countless memories of his youth, and made him feel much happier.

Rong Youtang couldn't help but tell the truth: "Ping Nanhou looks more exposed than Han Taifu."

"Arrogance. Right?" Guo Da asked with a smile.

Rong Youtang deliberately walked up to Guo Da and nodded heavily.

"It's just on the surface. It's not easy to get into that position." Guo Da made a gesture to shake off the wet handkerchief, Rong Youtang hurriedly backed away, but saw Guo Da laughing.

Rong Youtang also laughed: Mr. Guo is finally happy, and he is no longer unshaven, decadent and irritable.

The generals usually take a nap for half an hour at noon.

Zhao Zeyong, however, was mostly busy. He wrote at the desk and sighed with emotion: "The human skin mask of 'Zhenqianbao' is a camouflage. It can be torn off, and there is always a risk of exposure. But some people show people with real leather fake faces. , Yizang for most of his life, he can't be torn apart easily."

Rong Youtang humbly nodded to show he was taught, he asked curiously: "Your Highness, what great achievements did Pingnan Hou make when he was young? Why are there few records in today's documents?" Rong Youtang turned to look at Guo Da, and said respectfully: "Reading At that time, most of the famous generals mentioned by the masters were the grandfather and the generals of the Guo faction of your mansion." Rong Youtang looked at King Qing again, and said with admiration: "Then there is your Highness!"

Guo Da held his breath and focused on his grandfather for a moment, then said coldly: "Why is there no record of the eulogy? How can we record the eulogy for things that don't exist?"

Rong Youtang turned pale in astonishment, and asked in a daze: "No, nothing? But isn't he a Marquis because of his military exploits?"

Today, His Majesty has only conferred three dukes and two marquises!

"Check and balance." Zhao Zeyong said succinctly, explaining with no expression on his face: "Yang Guangwei's power was in the south, and he made his fortune by fighting against the barbarians in the mountains and forests in the southwest. Afterwards, he guarded the southeast coast and repelled Japanese pirates several times. He has made meritorious service."

"But compared with the northern border front, he is not enough." Guo Da said solemnly: "The Japanese pirates are certainly hateful, but they are just a small and poor country with a natural barrier of the sea. The northwest is much more difficult and dangerous: the Manchurian and Mongolian nomadic cavalry is strong , on the border with our country, if there is an accident, the enemy's cavalry can invade hundreds of miles a day. Back then, several nomadic tribes joined forces and invaded southward on a large scale. My grandfather fought bravely and died for the country without losing half an inch of the country! Cousin and I All the soldiers worked hard in the Northwest for ten years before finally driving the nomadic enemy soldiers back to the depths of the northern cold of the grassland."

"But the enemy has [-] large and small tribes, and the wildfire is endless. A wolf is always a wolf, and its nature is predatory and bloodthirsty. After recuperating, it will make a comeback." Zhao Zeyong said calmly and calmly.

"So that's how it is." Rong Youtang, who was born a few decades later, nodded, and sighed in his heart: His Majesty used the names of "Pingnan and Dingbei" to check and balance power, and conferred the titles of two marquises. Unfortunately, the old Marquis of Dingbei had already died. For almost 20 years, younger generations will not be able to witness his demeanor.But Ping Nanhou lived for seven or eighty years, but he became more and more confused. He was high-profile, extravagant and extravagant, and everyone knew it!

The recruitment period lasted for three days, and Rong Youtang rested in the tent for three nights. After he was busy every night, he still had to turn on the lamp to study and do his homework.

On the [-]th, at daybreak, the gate of Beiying was crowded with countless people, many of whom were accompanied by relatives and friends.

The first round of selection is over.

Put on the list.

Hong Lei and the others were even more excited and nervous, their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.

The time seems to be extremely long, and it seems to pass too fast. The average age of the applicants is eighteen or nineteen years old, and it is the time when they are eager to make contributions and become famous.

After waiting for more than an hour, the gate of the camp finally opened slowly, and after suffering for a while, finally saw the general who was familiar with him three days ago show up with people, commanding the soldiers to post a notice, simply announcing: "Only watch, don't touch!"

Hong Lei, Chen Ji, and the others had sweaty palms and felt uneasy, rushed over, opened their eyes to look carefully, and stretched their necks to hold their breath.

"Ah, there is me!"

"I chose!"

"Thank goodness I passed!"

From time to time, people of the same age could be heard lowering their voices, shouting in ecstasy, jumping in place, rushing out to announce the good news to relatives and friends.Of course, there are also those who failed the rankings, left without saying a word, dejected and sad, and walked away with heavy steps.

There is no me in this line, there is no me in this line, there is no me in this line... There is no me in this line? !Hong Lei frowned anxiously, clenched his fists nervously, his joints turned white, and forced himself to calm down and continue searching.

Suddenly, Chen Ji patted his brother hard on the back, pointing to his name happily: "Leizi, look! Chen Ji! Chen Ji, Chen Ji, Chen Ji! Hey, no one should have the same name as me, right? Don't make a fuss." Come on, let me see again!"

"Okay, let's take a look." Hong Lei casually agreed.

a quarter of an hour later

Chen Ji repeatedly confirmed that he was the only "Chen Ji" on the list, and most of the brothers who took the same exam were also on the list-but they didn't dare to show the slightest joy: because Hong Lei and Zhuo Qing failed the list.

They were concerned and anxious, their eyes widened seriously, and they helped to find it more than a dozen times: No, really not.

"Hey!" Zhuo Kai's little cousin is the explosive carbon, he couldn't accept it and shouted: "How could there be no me? Ah? Impossible? Is it missing? Impossible! My previous Clearly passed all three days! Brother Lei is even more powerful, he knocked down all the examiners during the martial arts test, how many are better than us?!"

Hong Lei thought that he would survive, and he was full of confidence. He believed that he was made to lead soldiers in war since he was a child.At this moment, he was so frustrated and disappointed that his whole body was trembling, tears glistened, he didn't say a word, and suddenly turned around and ran wildly.

"Leizi, where are you going?" Chen Ji shouted anxiously, and hurriedly chased after him to comfort him: "Leizi, don't worry, I'll ask my brother and brother Rong, you can—"

"Don't follow! I want to be quiet!" Hong Lei yelled in a crying voice without looking back.

The general who was in charge of posting the notice did not leave, just watched leisurely, obeying Guo Da's instructions, and only waved his hand after an interval of two quarters of an hour—the general ordered: "Post up the second notice."
