(Thank you for your support, thank you!)

February of each year is the annual day for veterans to retire and recruits to join the camp.

The Qin army has been practicing the conscript system over the years. Under this military system, ordinary soldiers have been retiring after three years of service, six years of sergeant and nine years of non-commissioned officer. If they are officers, they need to serve twelve years. Of course, after the service is over, they are willing to continue to serve in the service. If they are unwilling to continue to serve, they can be transferred to local positions.

Since the implementation of this system, the biggest result is that every year the Qin vassal family has a large number of soldiers retired from the military camps in various places, and then a large number of young men of appropriate age wear new uniforms to join the army. Although this has led to the aggravation of the training tasks of the Qin army and the discharge of many young and strong soldiers, Li Jing has always adhered to this system. In his opinion, the army is a furnace that can put the young people in the land into it, and train them more in line with the values ​​of the Qin army, and be more loyal to the Qin vassal. At the same time, after these well-trained young people return to their hometowns in various places, they can become the vanguard army that changes this era. The retired soldiers will join all walks of life and become models of all walks of life. The retired young people who have been trained forged in the army will become the foundation force of all industries.

Of course, there is another important point. After these young people who have been in the army for several years have been discharged from the army, they will become a qualified reserve army, hiding their troops to the people, and can be summoned at any time when they need it, but avoiding the need for it. These people do not know the soldiers and will not fight.

Due to these reasons, although this system has increased the annual military budget, the military and the Secretariat and other government agencies have never objected to this.

In December, Na Qibo, a young man from the Xi tribe in Honghuli Village, at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, received a message from the mansion and asked him to report to the Chengde Conscription Station. The Xi tribe was completely destroyed in the wars of several years. Now the Xi tribe is no longer divided between the East, Xi and Xi, and even the Xi king’s Khan tent. Now the Xi tribe has been completely divided into the three provinces of Shanxi, Rehe and western Liaoning. A large number of Xi people were moved to the Central Plains south of Yanshan Mountain to be scattered and resettled, and only a small number of Xi people were left north of Yanshan Mountain. Now, like a large number of Han people who moved to farm and grazing for them. They no longer migrate and grazle like before, but have become designated grazing, growing grain and even planting grass.

The Xi people also have to pay taxes and serve in the military. The 18th year of the vacancies is the standard time for enlistment.

What is a little different from the Han people is that young people from those tribes are usually automatically assigned to the cavalry. They are even different from the Han people's cavalry. Han cavalry is assigned to war horses after joining the army, while they take their own horses to report when they join the army. They also need to buy some uniform weapons and equipment themselves, but the military will also give each soldier who joins the army a sum of equipment. Then Qi Bo received a hundred stale money at the conscription station.

However, after returning from the conscription station, he was still a little worried. It was about to start spring, but he still had a lot of things. He used the money given by the government and the money he saved to buy two horses in a village in the upper reaches of the Luan River. He went with his grandfather, who was also a Xi warrior, who was very strong and brave. Later, he injured one leg in the battle and became a cripple. But he looked at the horse's book.

Things were still very good. The two horses they bought were very good, both of which were only six years old, and both were daisy horses. Among them, they suffered some old injuries that were difficult to see were also seen by him. His grandfather stroked his beard and said to him: "One hundred and forty stakes, you can't buy two cheaper war horses. The grassland has been fighting continuously over the years. Not only has the price of war horses increased significantly, but also the horses have also increased a lot. If it were in the early years, two war horses would have been much cheaper."

Na Qibo's family also had a few war horses, but some were too old. They were war horses used by his grandfather and father, and the remaining two younger ones were his brother's war horses. His brother Na Qishi was also a Xi warrior, and now he is a village soldier in the Qin army's Rehe Province, and his war horses are also used.

After buying back the horse, the Qibo began to ride these two horses every day, try to walk slowly and quickly, and train tacit understanding using the methods used by the Xi warriors. He took turns riding them up and down the mountain, crossing the ditch and crossing the railings, beating drums and drums, and even jumping into the fire. During that time, he moved to the horse circle and lived with the two horses, and was inseparable.

Only a few days before Jingzhe, his father and brother came back together.

The older brother was a village soldier, while his father was a united soldier. Both of them had to go to the county to gather for training in winter. They drove their respective war horses together with a sled. When the grandfather heard the sound, he limped out, took off the two war horses and drove them into the yard, and tied them to the fence. The ragged bo saw his father and brother from the window and hurried out.

The father of the ragged boobs walked into the room with a chill. He took off his wolf's scalp hat and looked around the room with a slow gaze.

"You guys have a good life."

Na Qibo had already become a bride last year. The bride he chose was the daughter of a Xi warrior family in the village next door. She was very strong and beautiful. Her father and Agulang had fought side by side with King Xixi, using two pairs of bulls and a full set of gold jewelry to marry his daughter to his second son. Because Xi was incorporated into the Qin vassal, eighteen-year-old young men had to recruit soldiers, so now a new custom of men getting married before joining the army has gradually formed.

The marriage of the robber last spring was at the end of the year, and his wife had already given birth to a girl.

"Hello father, hello brother!" Aria, who had not yet passed the 100-day postpartum, came out with her daughter wrapped in a scrambled baby and greeted her father-in-law and husband's brother.

Agulang looked at his granddaughter and asked without raising his head, "Are you going to join the army?"

"Well." Na Qibo seemed not to be opposed to joining the army. He said: "In fact, if King Xi's Khan's Court had not disappeared, I might have become a Xi warrior a few years ago."

Agulang didn't say anything, and looked at his younger son carefully.

"Take off the clothes outside and bake them. Father, you probably have frozen?" said Alia.

"It doesn't matter, we are all soldiers, we are forbidden." The brother of the Qibo's village soldier said to his sister-in-law with a smile.

"We're here to send you equipment. It's customized in Chengde's shop, including two coats, two pairs of leather pants, and a pair of saddles. Let's take it in. They are all here." Agulang turned his head and said to his eldest son.

The abandoned hat was not worn, so he followed his brother out and moved two pockets from the sledge.

"In addition, some equipment is available at home, so you don't have to spend money outside to buy it. He plans to give you the equipment from your grandfather, although it is a bit old. It is well maintained. There is a riding bow, three strings, two cowhide round shields, a short-handed steel axe, a thirteen-section steel bamboo whip, and a hard spear, a scimitar, two short swords, and a hundred arrows and a pair of leather armor. You can bring them all."

"Thank you." The Qibo said happily, "But in fact, it doesn't require it. Armor and weapons will be distributed after joining the army. I just need it with the auxiliary weapons, steel axe and steel whip."

"When will we set off?" Agulang asked.

"The day of Jingzhe."

Agulang nodded. He stood up and said something to his old lame father, and then he was about to leave. They had to return to the training camp to continue training. Today, because the superiors knew that they had relatives to join the army, they were given a day off and had to go back immediately, otherwise they would miss the time.

"We have to go back early."

The grandfather, grandson and son said goodbye. As he walked towards the gate of the yard, he said, "I went to home first when I came. Your mother asked me to greet you. Her legs hurt again, and there were some dry food she made in her pocket. You can keep it for yourself." He was silent for a while, and then said, "On the day of Jingzhe, I will come to send you to Chengde to report. You can prepare yourself in the next few days to see if there is anything else you need to forget."

After saying that, he put on thick wool gloves and walked out.

The day before Jingzhe, the grandfather abandoned his horse and took his grandfather who was visiting their family back to his father's house. He picked up his mother who was suffering from leg pain and his sister-in-law who was taking care of the children at home. The family went to the temple to pray together on a big sledge. On the way back, the grandfather sat next to him and said to him, "Don't worry about his wife, she will live well. Your mother has already said that after you go to serve, she will take her and the children to live together. You must go to serve well. Your father and I are very brave.

The clan warriors, and even our ancestors, have been brave Xi warriors for generations. Although we are loyal to each other now, you must also be an excellent warrior and not lose your ancestors' face." The old warrior's voice became even deeper, "You must keep the glory of me and your father. I was once the centurion of King Xi's attendant. Your father also received praise from the leaders of the tribes for his superb riding skills and amazing archery skills. He is a recognized warrior of the Xi tribe."

"Yes, grandpa and father are both recognized warriors of the Xi clan, and the eldest brother is also very powerful. Now he is a sergeant among the village soldiers."

"Okay, that's how it should be!" The centurion's stern and self-proclaimed conversation ended, and he hid his face in his leather robe on the way back.

At night, the Qibo and his wife were about to report, couldn't sleep. The two sat on the bed and pulled some trivial matters. Alia sat on the bed, her face full of resentment and unhappiness. She had just given birth to a child and was breastfeeding. Her breasts were swollen and hard, and she even had a small piece of her clothes soaked with overflowing milk. After giving birth, she became much fatter, which added a more confident and mature charm than when she was the original girl.

They couldn't sleep. Aria leaned against her young husband, tears and the child's endless milk flowed out and soaked her middle clothes. She whispered, "You have been leaving for three years. How can I live alone? I miss you and you will want to die..."

"Don't worry." The Qibo comforted his equally young wife.

"How can I fall asleep after a long night? Think about it, three years, more than a thousand days and nights!"

"Many army soldiers of other vassal states in the Central Plains have lifelong service, and they have to be over fifty years old before they can be discharged from the army."

"What does other feudal states have to do with me?"

"Okay, stop talking."

"This damn military service spreads family and destroys couples!" Aria muttered.

"Don't worry, I'll be back during the holiday."

"On vacation?" Alia raised her lips, "Who knows where you will go to serve? Qin Fan's territory from south to north, from east to west is much larger than the Xi realm before. If you were divided into the distant Liaodong and even further south of the Yangtze River, how much water would the Luan River flow to wait for you to come back?"

"Stop crying... You look like the autumn drizzle: you're not finished crying."

"I'll try it if you change it to me!"

The chaobo did not fall asleep until dawn. Aria had breastfeeded the child and supported her body with her arms. She looked at the hard lines on her husband's face without blinking, and said goodbye to him in her heart.

Aria also wanted to fall asleep, but her thoughts fluctuated and her thoughts were surging, just like the north wind blew hay, and the trace of sleepiness was swept away. Until dawn, she was still thinking about her husband who was about to leave and her husband would not live together in the next thousand days.

In the early morning, as soon as the window covered with frost was shining, Agulang, his eldest son, his wife, his eldest daughter-in-law and his father all arrived on a sled.

"Then the robber, get up quickly. It's almost dawn. You have to report to the recruitment station today!"

Aria sighed, pushed her sleeping husband, looked for her skirt, and began to wear it.

In the morning, after breakfast, Na Qibo said goodbye, his mother, his wife, and his grandfather. He put on his luggage on his horse, prepared his saddle, and went out with his father and brother. Their village was far away from Chengde. On the way, they stayed in a village by the Luan River for a night. There were many people like them in the village, all of whom took their children to report to the conscription station. These people included the Xi people, the Uighurs, the Tuyuhun people, as well as the Shatu people, the Tatars, etc. Of course, the most were the Han people.

The next morning, they gathered together and formed a team to set off for Chengde. On the way, the young people who were about to join the army were chatting and getting to know each other. Outside the infirmary at the conscription station, Na Qibo also saw some young people of the same age who knew each other in their village and several nearby villages. He even saw his wife's brother Monlie, riding a light brown tall horse with a pair of brand new and shiny saddles, gorgeous belly bands and shiny silver bridles. When he saw him, he immediately ran over.

The recruits who reported to the police had to undergo a routine physical examination in the infirmary. Several officers and clerks in the army responsible for recruiting were busy there. Although Qi Bo had heard that the recruitment had to pass this level, he was still very curiously looking at all.

"Five feet five!"

"Old Zhang, this is obviously too short. It's not good to be an infantryman, and it's too short to be a cavalry." A hoarse voice among the rows of people wearing white robes behind the tables in the room.

"The artillery is not good either. The artillery is big. Otherwise, let him go to the navy or the flight unit." Another person interjected.

When it was the turn of the erectile dysfunction, he was not used to being naked in front of a group of men, and was looked at by them with the gaze of picking animals. He reached out to cover the lower part. As a result, someone immediately shouted: "What are you covering with your hands? It's not a big girl. Could it be that you didn't carry a hand? Then why did you run away?"

The playful words caused a burst of laughter, so the chaobo had to put down his hand.

As a result, someone immediately said, "Let's see, this guy is so strong, like a calf."

Old Zhang looked at the Qibo and smiled and said, "I think this guy looks like an elephant, especially when you look at him, is it like an elephant's trunk?"

"Good guy, no wonder I've been covering it just now. It's really different. It's really like an elephant's trunk. Let me tell you, when I went to Yanjing last year, I went to a zoo. Not to mention, it's really a fucking look. Unfortunately, although we have a female army, it's a pity that the female army does not need a male prostitute camp. Otherwise, if you let him go, just rely on this guy, you will definitely not waste his capital."

This remark did not attract everyone's remarks, but a few people glared at him. After all, female soldiers are like treasures in the Qin army, and such jokes are a bit out of place.

The man stopped a little embarrassedly, lowered his head to the form to cover up his embarrassment. "Then the robber!"

"Yes!" The Qibo was made fun of by a group of people, and his face turned a little red. He was born with a little big deal and was often laughed at by others for this matter. But today he was in front of a group of strange soldiers, so he cared a little.

He had goose bumps on his body so cold that he just hoped to end this level sooner.

"Are you a Xi person?"

"yes."

Someone instructed him to measure his height and weight. His height was six feet three, weighing 140 kilograms (Tang 1 kilogram is about 680 grams, and 140 kilograms is equivalent to more than 90 kilograms in modern times). Then a military doctor heard his heart, flipped his eyes, looked at his tongue, and carefully looked at his whole body. Even his hair was untied, looking for scars on his head.

Finally, the doctor handed the medical examination report to the group of people behind the table.

"Height is six feet three, weighs one hundred and four, has no illness, has never been seriously injured, has a great body."

Another person said, "There are files sent from their county. The family has been Xi warriors, grandfathers, and fathers are all Xi warriors. The grandfather was once the centurion of the guard of King Xi, and his father was also the centurion of the centurion. Now in the county Tuanjie Camp, the brothers are in the county and township soldiers, and they all perform well. Na Qibo usually abides by the law in the village, performs well, has married a wife, and has a daughter..."

"There are good physical conditions and good family backgrounds. It's a good seedling."

"Can you send it to the Six Guards?" The chief officer of the station bent over to the ears of the people at the table beside him and asked softly.

"Well, the Sixth Guards Army has a rated number of soldiers from all races, and this guy has good conditions in all aspects. Well, I'll send it to the Sixth Guards Army's recruits battalion and decide which army to send after the training is over."

The chief officer of the military station immediately shouted loudly: "Then Qibo was assigned to the Sixth Guards Army. Have you heard that? Boy, you are the first to be assigned to the Sixth Guards Army today, and your future is bright."

He thanked everyone, then turned around and went out. When he went out, he heard the voices of everyone behind him.

"This guy has a great physical condition. His standard figure is full of muscles."

"And the body is also very clean, without any disease."

"Looking at the performance of his grandfather, father, and brothers, you can imagine that this guy has excellent cavalry blood and is a natural warrior. He was sent to the Six Guards. If he was added with his highness one day, this kid would have really become a success."

......

The fellow villagers who were waiting in line outside surrounded him and asked, "Hey, how about it, then the abandoned erection?"

"Brother-in-law, where are you assigned?" asked his wife's brother-in-law.

"Well, I'll be assigned to the Six Guards."
