Chapter 1621 Although he has not achieved the goal of helping the world, he does not want to be alone

"Miss, the blacksmith has also been recruited. Should we go back?" Qin'er was sitting in the sedan while massaging Li Shu's calves. Said softly.

"Why are you rushing back? When I was in the capital, I asked Brother Rui to borrow the "Fire Dragon Sutra" from my uncle's study and made a bunch of rubbings. If I don't make five or six blacksmiths, wouldn't it be wrong to go back? It's a waste." Li Shu narrowed her eyes and smiled, like a fox.

Miss Qin'er (Yan) is a white wolf with nothing. If you want to return one set, you have to pick up five

"Let's go to Yonghefang Huaishu Alley. Wang Xiaoer said there are still more There was a blacksmith named Zhang. He is a blacksmith from the Taizhou Guard Bureau. He also went to Nanyang to steal Hongyi artillery. Later, he was injured and his eyes were destroyed. He was kicked out by the Taizhou Guard Bureau. Now he is down and out. It is a good opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity."

Li Shu lazily stretched out her hand and ordered the sedan to drive to Huaishu Hutong in Yonghefang to earn money from Zhang Blacksmith.

"Oh oh." Qin'er came back to her senses, opened the curtains, and sent a message to the outside to go to Huaishu Hutong in Yonghefang.

About half an hour later, Li Shu left Huaishu Hutong in Yonghefang with a smile on her face, heading to the next location.

Behind the sedan, a tall, thick, one-eyed man bowed to the sedan with tears of gratitude.

On the third day, when Li Shu and his party left Yangzhou, the team had grown much larger. There were five more blacksmiths and more than ten blacksmith apprentices accompanying them. There were also four more boats carrying luggage, full of iron. Ingots, copper ingots, saltpeter, sulfur, etc.

Half of the cargo on these newly added cargo ships was purchased by the recruited blacksmiths such as Ou Zhige.

The iron ingots and copper ingots on the market in Yangzhou were okay, but saltpeter, sulfur and other products were almost sold out.

When Li Shu set off from Yangzhou to Yingtian, Zhu Pingan rushed to Guangde with the Yiwu recruits he had recruited.

During this training, the Yiwu recruits demonstrated their natural qualities: simple and honest, obedient to discipline and orders, perseverant and full of patience. As long as orders are given, they will obey them. As long as they do not shout stop, they will You can keep going down, even if you are exhausted
Walking all the way, training all the way, almost half of the journey has been completed. The new recruits in Yiwu have achieved the results of college students’ military training for more than half a month, and they have begun to blur the shadow of soldiers, especially in the Zhejiang Army such as Liu Dadao. Under the leadership of the veteran, they walked in line, looking impressive and quite capable of bluffing people.

Of course, Yiwu recruits also have many shortcomings, such as low literacy rate and slow learning speed. However, the flaws are not hidden, and these shortcomings are doubtful for improvement. Compared with the many advantages of Yiwu recruits, these shortcomings are suspiciously negligible.

Zhu Ping'an is very satisfied with the Yiwu recruits he recruited. They are indeed the famous Qi Jiajun in history. They are indeed worthy of their reputation. He has taken advantage of Qi Jiguang. He will definitely thank Qi Jiguang when he meets him in the future. After a while, although Qi Jiguang must not know why he wants to thank him.

While the recruits in Yiwu were just blank pieces of paper, Zhu Pingan instilled in them along the way that "the mission of a soldier is to protect the home and the country", "a soldier must obey orders as his own duty", "when a soldier fights, Ideological concepts such as "military duty", "never abandon, never give up", "military discipline is like iron, and national law is like heaven", "the Zhejiang Army's current top priority is to exterminate Japanese pirates and rescue the people in Jiangnan", etc., shape their correct view of the military.

"I am a soldier, from the common people; bathing in the emperor's favor, I defeated the Japanese invaders and eliminated the Huns;

I am a soldier, I love the emperor and the people; the fierce war tested me , stand firmer;

Hehe, hold the weapon tightly and see clearly; whoever dares to invade my homeland will be beaten without mercy."

Yiwu recruits lined up in a long snake queue, singing loud military songs, wearing Passing through the fields in Guangde.

"My Lord has an order. When passing through the fields, you must not step on the furrows or damage the crops. Violators will be severely punished!" "

"Your Majesty has an order not to harass the people, and not to behave in a disrespectful manner. Violators will be severely punished!" "

Zhu Ping'an's order was carried out, and no new recruits in Yiwu dared to disobey. They all walked along the field path. More than 1,200 people passed by, without trampling a single crop or trampling an inch. Field furrows

Of course, it didn't disturb any common people.

Such strict marching disciplines made the farmers working in the fields feel relieved and stopped calling their children and daughters to avoid them. They had the courage to sit in the fields or under the trees on the roadside and watch the Zhejiang Army recruits passing by. While resting, the discussion started.

"Are these soldiers from there? Are they elites transferred by Governor Zhang from somewhere to go to the coast to exterminate the Japanese pirates?"

"What kind of soldiers are they? Didn't you see that they are all wearing our clothes?" These are common people’s clothes, they don’t look like soldiers.”< br>
“Aren’t you a soldier?! Didn’t you hear them singing ‘I am a soldier’? Maybe they have a mission, so they specially changed into common people’s clothes and pretended to be common people, just to confuse the Japanese pirates. Come on. Cruel.”

"This army sings so well. I really wish all soldiers could be like this."

"What are you thinking? Soldiers like this are rare these days. Most soldiers are worse than bandits. , start fighting against thieves and bandits If you encounter thieves, you may be able to lose money and avoid disasters. If you encounter soldiers, hehe, just ask for good luck.”

The villagers in the fields started talking enthusiastically. I am curious about the origins of the new recruits of the Zhejiang Army.

When Zhu Pingan led the Zhejiang Army recruits for training and got closer and closer to the Taohuaji Campus, his uncle Zhu Shouren and his two friends, Wolong and Phoenix, arrived in Chizhou five days ago. Now five days have passed. , and haven’t left Chizhou yet.

They set out from home, took the Yangtze River waterway, and went down the river. It was only a few days' journey, but after ten days, they had only left Anqing Mansion and arrived in Chizhou. The journey was only a short distance. Got a head start

Three poles high in the sun, a cold wind swept across.

"Brother Zhu, do we dare to set off and get on the boat?" Hu Wei and Xia Qiang said to Zhu Shouren who had just gotten up.

"Oh, I can't bear it." Zhu Shouren sighed.

"Brother Zhu, what can't you bear to do?" Hu Wei and Xia Qiang asked hurriedly.

"It is already the twelfth lunar month of winter, the cold wind is blowing, and the waves are surging. Look, a weak woman opposite is looking out of the window. She is wearing thin clothes and shivering. Although I have not been able to help the world, I don't want to. Being alone in this cold weather, I want to go over and treat this poor weak woman to a hot soup. What do you think?”

Zhu Shouren pointed to the opposite side and said. Hu Wei and Xia Qiang followed Zhu Shouren's fingers and saw a scantily clad woman on the second floor of the Zuihua Building opposite, waving a handkerchief and trying her best to attract customers, trying her best to flirt.

Hu Wei and Xia Qiang were stunned.
