NOVEL NEXT Chapter 81 Everyone goes to Beijing
On September 12, the 13th year of the Hongye reign of the Wei Dynasty, Zhou Yuan was summoned by the governor of Huaizhou.
Among the people traveling with him, three were generals from the counties of Huaizhou, and one was a local general from the Huaizhou camp.
The five of them were taken to the governor's mansion in the camp by Liu Canjun, where they met the governor of Huaizhou, who was in his middle age.
As the governor of a state in the Wei Dynasty, the governor of Huaizhou was undoubtedly powerful, but he looked more amiable than Jiang Ren, the lieutenant of Jing'an.
Perhaps because of his older age, he could take care of his subordinates as an elder.
Therefore, he did not choose to summon Zhou Yuan and his party in the solemn atmosphere of the government hall.
Instead, he set up a banquet in the small courtyard of the mansion to impart experience to the candidates for the spiritual test in the army.
In addition to feeling flattered, everyone at the banquet was also very restrained, fearing that they would say something wrong and make the governor of Huaizhou unhappy.
"Come, come, don't be restrained, let's drink this cup together.
When I saw you, I remembered the experience of the spiritual test back then. It was really a good time and full of passion."
"I think your superiors have told you about the situation of the three spiritual tests, so I won't repeat it.
I only say one thing, that is, don't be impulsive, and staying useful is more important than anything else."
"If you can be selected, I will be happy with you; if you can't be selected, return to Huaizhou camp as soon as possible.
We won't let outsiders laugh at us, nor let people from our hometown mock us. There are many positions in the camp. With me, there must be a place for you."
As soon as these words came out, the uneasy hearts of several spiritual test candidates instantly calmed down a lot.
Yes, going to the capital to participate in the test is not a life-and-death struggle. At worst, we can return to Huaizhou to prepare for the public spiritual test held every four years.
What the governor of Huaizhou said here is also sincere. The soldiers who can participate in the new Yuan spiritual test are all outstanding and good fighters.
Even if he can't become a warrior, he is an excellent general needed in the camp.
"In addition, I don't care about the situation of the candidates from other states, and I don't care about the character of those children from noble families.
I only ask you to remember the righteousness of comrades and the laws of the army. If anyone dares to secretly harm his brothers in the capital, I will not let him go easily."
"Don't worry, Governor. The five of us will work together to keep Huaizhou's military prestige intact."
Zhou Yuan and his party knew that the governor of Huaizhou was talking about a matter of principle, and they all stood up and saluted.
It is probably because entering another state is like marching. If there is a private fight at that time, it will not only damage the face of the governor of Huaizhou, but also endanger the participation of comrades.
"Okay, you are all good men from Huaizhou. Since this governor wants you to take care of yourselves, I will not just say no.
I have prepared various kinds of armor for you. Remember to go to the warehouse in the mansion to collect them when you leave."
"We thank the governor for his kindness. This time we will show the military power of Huaizhou."
After the governor of Huaizhou finished speaking, he left the banquet first on the pretext of handling official business, leaving the five participating officers with space to get to know each other.
When he left, the atmosphere at the banquet became much happier, from being serious and solemn to bragging to each other.
In the end, the local Lu Duwei of Huaizhou Camp was more skilled. With his eloquence and wide knowledge, he became the honorary leader of the general team.
For Zhou Yuan, getting along with these people is much easier than getting along with those aristocratic children.
At least they come from the same military system, and there is a real boss above to maintain the rules, which is far more trustworthy than those aristocratic children from different backgrounds.
After the banquet was over, several people went to the warehouse of the governor's mansion to collect the armor.
In view of the different fighting styles of each person, the warehouse officials also gave different armors, and Zhou Yuan obtained a pair of light armor that was convenient for movement.
[Armor: Feng Yu]
[Introduction: Carrying Lian Yunkai, the great theory of Feng Yuxing, the heaven and earth move smoothly, then thunder comes out as Yu; when the saints succeed, the wind moves with rhythm]
[Effect: After equipping, the user will be superimposed with the "Feng Xing" and "Jin Yu" states.
Feng Xing: A small increase in movement speed, reduce self-weight feedback, and facilitate obstacle passage.
Jin Yu: Consume spiritual energy to increase defense and reduce shock damage. ]
The defense of Feng Yu armor is better than that of ordinary iron armor, and it can also consume spiritual energy to increase defense. In addition, it can increase movement speed, which is indeed the best choice for shooters.
It must be said that being organized is good. The governor of Huaizhou waved his hand and smashed out five pieces of treasure armor, which was really rich and heroic.
Because normal people do not have Zhou Yuan's game vision, they cannot intuitively understand the effect of treasure armor.
Therefore, they all put on armor and experienced it. Zhou Yuan didn't want to show any abnormality, so he also changed into Fengyu Armor.
As soon as he put it on, he found that there seemed to be wind behind him, which made it very convenient for running and jumping.
"Good armor, fire uses wind, wind helps fire burn, and fire bow wind armor is really a perfect match."
When Zhou Yuan and his party returned to the barracks wearing Fengyu armor, several noble family children were so shocked that their eyes almost fell to the ground.
"My father and brothers often said that the Wei Dynasty valued martial arts and the army was rich and noble. I didn't know what it meant at first. I just thought that the generals were strong and rich, and the soldiers obeyed orders and worked hard.
I didn't expect that today Sima Zhou would teach me the truth, so that I knew the wealth of the state camp and the righteousness of the military officers who guarded the camp."
"No wonder the elders in the family want to throw the children of the collateral family into the military camp. It turns out that the strong in the camp can really get the opportunity to reach the sky and the treatment of the noble family."
Several noble family children thought they had some advantages, at least in terms of military equipment, they were better than the military officers in the army.
But the Huaizhou camp proved with actual actions who was the real military garrison.
With a little effort, they made up for the shortcomings of the military officers in the army, and the military officers in the army had experienced bloody battles and were good at cooperation.
In this way, the children of the aristocratic families not only lost their advantages, but also exposed their disadvantages.
"Brother Gu, if we apply to the governor of Huaizhou, can we adjust and replace our weapons and protective gear?"
"Most likely, it's not that the governor of Huaizhou is stingy, but we don't have a title, and we're afraid that we won't be summoned by the governor of Huaizhou.
After all, he is a frontier official and the lord of a state, how can we see him just because we want to."
In addition to envy, the sons of the noble families did not feel any injustice.
Only Chen Xin, the second son of the Chen family in Yiyang, felt aggrieved and felt that he was ignored.
If it weren't for the fact that he had to be accompanied by the chief official of the state to prove his identity when he entered the capital to take the exam, he would have wanted to leave first.
He looked at the military candidates who were excited to get the treasure armor and swore silently in his heart.
"If I guard a place one day, I will definitely be fair and impartial."
No matter how the candidates of Huaizhou feel, their final battle will be in the capital.
For this reason, even if some people are unwilling, they dare not really crash into the camp and challenge the military power of the Huaizhou army.
After another five days, all the candidates from various counties finally arrived, and the governor of Huaizhou held a farewell banquet, urging the candidates to set off as soon as possible.
"The mountains are high and the roads are long. It will take twenty fast horses and half a month by boat to get to the capital. You can't rest during the hard journey.
If everything goes well, you will arrive in the capital in late October.
There will be two months before the new Yuanling test, which is enough time for you to adapt to the climate and adjust your state."
"I obey your command. We will definitely promote the reputation of Huaizhou when we go to the capital."
