Chapter 190 Yu Shuai asks
Old man Wei kowtowed heavily to the ground: "Wei Xiangzhong thanked Yushuai for Jiang Lin and thanked the commander-in-chief!"
Qi Hongwu stretched out his hand and touched it, blowing up the old man Wei.
Although he was as gentle as possible, Old Man Wei was old and frail, and after kneeling for a while, he staggered a few times and almost fell down.
"Your body is too weak." Qi Hongwu looked a little majestic and said: "If that kid doesn't treat you better, I will go over and whip him myself!"
Old Man Wei showed a faint smile: "He is very good to me."
"Okay, that's it. It's rare to see you kneel down and beg for someone. I won't do it next time." Qi Hongwu said.
"Yeah."
Old Man Wei bowed his hands and bowed, then turned around and limped away with the broken knife in his arms.
Looking at his old back, Qi Hongwu shook his head slightly, and then said to the people on the left and right: "Don't underestimate him. He was also very powerful when he was in the border army."
It's just that times make heroes, and heroes can't stop the invasion of fate.
After leaving Guji Lane, Old Wei went to Nanling Camp again.
Looking at Jiang Lin, who had already hung up the Nanling Daying badge, Old Man Wei had a slightly complicated expression.
"Master Wei, what are you doing?" Jiang Lin looked at the old man Wei wearing a helmet with confusion on his face.
Old Man Wei showed a slight smile and said, "I went for a walk for a while. You can stay here with peace of mind. I'm back."
Jiang Lin said oh and watched him leave.
Liao Mingxu has stated military discipline that no one is allowed to enter or leave the camp, so he cannot leave the camp to see him off.
Looking at the leaving old man Wei and his somewhat weird outfit, Jiang Lin always felt that something had happened, but he didn't know the specifics.
Song Tianjiu came over and asked, "What are you looking at? You won't get tired of staying here so soon and want to leave, right?"
"No." Jiang Lin shook his head and pointed outside the camp: "Master Wei came here just now. He was still wearing old armor. He looked weird. I don't know what he was doing."
Song Tianjiu was startled and looked in the direction of his finger.
Looking at the limping figure, Song Tianjiu seemed to have thought of something.
"Master Wei didn't tell you what to do?" Song Tianjiu turned around and asked.
"No." Jiang Lin asked, "Brother Song knows?"
Song Tianjiu hesitated for a moment, but still chose not to say anything, and just sighed: "You are lucky to have Master Wei here. You must treat him better in the future."
What he said meant something, but he didn't want to make it clear.
Jiang Lin nodded silently. He didn't know what happened, and it didn't affect his decision to do anything.
Be kind to Old Man Wei, that's what you should do.
It should be better.
The next day.
Jiang Lin was woken up early in the morning. Liao Mingxu personally took the documents from the Ministry of War and said with a smile: "It's done, there's no need to worry anymore. From now on, you are a member of our border army, and no one can Take you away!”
Jiang Lin took the document and read it. He was recruited from the Foundry Department to be a blacksmith with the army.
Liao Mingxu pointed to the middle of the document and said, "See, this is the seal of our General Qi."
Jiang Lin looked at the square seal and wondered if Old Man Wei was wearing armor yesterday and went to see General Qi?
Otherwise, there is no need for the general army to meddle in the affairs of a mere blacksmith.
"Master Wei and General Qi know each other?" Jiang Lin asked.
"More than just acquaintance." Liao Mingxu said: "When Lord Wei was a hundred households, General Qi was the general of our Nanling Camp."
This kind of relationship can be said to be brothers who are not brothers, and it cannot be explained by acquaintance.
"If Lord Wei hadn't been injured and retreated from the frontier army, the position of general would have been his now."
Liao Mingxu said with emotion on his face: "I'm afraid you don't know how fierce Lord Wei was back then. He was enough to rank among the top three among the hundreds of households in the border army!"
Jiang Lin was very surprised when he heard that there were hundreds of millions of soldiers on the border, and there were not even 10,000 but 8,000 households in a hundred.
And Daqian's frontier troops were notoriously brave. To be ranked in the top three among these people is definitely a fierce man worthy of the name.
Unexpectedly, Old Man Wei, who had been cooking quietly in the blacksmith camp and talking little, would be so brilliant back then.
It is precisely because of this that even after more than twenty years, people like Liao Mingxu still maintain enough respect for Old Man Wei.
"There is no serious problem now. Do you think you should continue to stay in the camp, or go back to the blacksmith camp first?" Liao Mingxu asked.
If he wanted to stay in the camp, he would naturally support it with both hands, and would immediately send someone to bring Jiang Lin's things.
Jiang Lin asked curiously: "Since I am a blacksmith with the army, don't I have to stay here all the time?"
Liao Mingxu smiled and said: "Of course there is no need. After all, a blacksmith is no better than a sergeant. Unless he goes to the frontier to prepare for battle, there are no special things on weekdays, and his activities are relatively free. If you think this is not good, I can also draft an order, Let you stay here all day long and not go out.”
Jiang Lin quickly shook his head and said: "Forget it, there are many unfinished things in the Blacksmith Camp now, and it's time to hire people."
"I knew you would say that." Liao Mingxu said: "But when you go back, you still have to remember that you are already a member of the border army and no longer an ordinary blacksmith."
Jiang Lin looked at his serious look and couldn't help but nodded: "Remember."
Not long after, Jiang Lin returned to the South Blacksmith Camp. It was dinner time, and a group of blacksmith masters saw him coming back and quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and ran over.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Master Jiang is back!"
"Master Jiang, are you okay? You've worried us a lot."
"I heard that you joined the frontier army? I won't see you again in the future, right?"
"Bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Yes, yes, I made a mistake. Aren't you anxious!"
A group of master blacksmiths were chattering away. Although Blacksmith Qi and other masters did not say anything immediately, judging from their expressions, they all had the same idea.
Without Jiang Lin, the South Blacksmith Camp is really going to break up!
Jiang Lin smiled and said: "It is true that I have joined the frontier army, but I have not yet received the military order to go to the frontier. I will still stay at the Blacksmith Camp."
"When will I receive the military order?" someone asked again.
Jiang Lin didn't know when he would receive it. According to Liao Mingxu, it was not yet time for Nanling Camp to rest and recuperate. It would take at least a year and a half.
"Okay, okay, don't act like it's the first time we meet. Even if Master Jiang really leaves with the army, he will come back sooner or later." Blacksmith Qi came over and said.
"That's right, even if you leave, you will definitely come back." Jiang Lin agreed.
Blacksmith Qi and him looked at each other, then both smiled.
No matter when you leave, at least you are still here, and that is a good thing.
The blacksmith who follows the army is a very special being. When he is in the main camp, he is under the jurisdiction of the military discipline. When he is in the blacksmith camp, he is under the jurisdiction of the foundry department. Even if he continues to be promoted to deputy master craftsman, it will not be a problem for him to be a master craftsman.
It can be said that both sides can control it, but in theory, the Foundry Department will not control too much.
After all, these are people from the border army, and they don't want to cause any trouble.
Therefore, if Secretary Yan Tianrong comes, he will be more polite to Jiang Lin than before.
After talking to everyone for a few words, Jiang Lin came to the dining tent surrounded by them.
He quickly walked to the stove and took the rice spoon from Old Man Wei to help prepare the rice as usual.
Old Man Wei let go and stood aside, looking at Jiang Lin's burly body and said, "I left some food for you."
"Well, I'll eat it later," Jiang Lin said.
The conversation between the two was as simple and clear as ever, but there was a kind of intimacy that could not be detected by outsiders.
At this time, a letter from the Ministry of Industry arrived at the Li family in Qingzhou.
The man in brocade who came to recruit Jiang Lin earlier took the letter from the servant and opened it.
There is a line written on it.
"Yu Shuai asked, Jiang Lin, abandoned."
Looking for follow-up order, follow-up will be later
