Chapter 20: Take office

After Huang Zhen and Lieutenant Cheng became brothers of different surnames, Cheng Shaohua wrote another letter to send him a letter to the Northwest General with a flying pigeon, indicating that he had become a brother of different surnames with Huang Zhen, and asked his uncle to take care of him. Huang Zhen would take office soon...

Huang Zhen returned to the centurion's military camp and handed the centurion's seal to Yang Shangwu, and told Yang Shangwu that he would be transferred to the position of centurion of the second lieutenant camp tomorrow and to the position of Zuo Pioneer under the Northwest General Cheng Yuanting. Yang Shangwu was very happy to congratulate him, and he was secretly happy in his heart, after all, he could be restored to his post again!

The next morning, Huang Zhen said goodbye to the officers and soldiers of the right wing army, and at the same time he left with his elder brother, Second Lieutenant Cheng! He packed his luggage and rode a black iron horse sent by his elder brother to the official road from the mountain road! The black iron horse is very handsome and has a long endurance! Although Huang Zhen also entered the level of a master, his kung fu was not good at the moment! Therefore, Huang Zhen kept practicing the movements of getting on and dismounting the horse. Because of his high physical skills, he was able to ride very skillfully in one morning!

It was not until the afternoon when Huang Zhen found a big tree to rest, and the black iron horse was placed in the grass to eat grass! Huang Zhen had practiced Luo Family Gun and Yue Family Gun in his previous life, and also practiced the shaking gun in Tai Chi! But he had never practiced gunman immediately!

After thinking about it, Huang Zhen started searching in the woods. After walking a long way, he finally found an iron vine tree. The iron vine tree looks like a vine, but it is a tree. The surface of the stalk is hard, but the heart of the tree is as flexible as a vine! Huang Zhen chose a moderately thick and straight tree pole, took out the dagger and cut it down! It was quite laborious when cutting it. When it was not the surface of the stalk, it was no wonder it was called an iron vine tree! You must know that Huang Zhen now has at least more than 3,000 kilograms of force, and the spirit weapon cuts iron like mud. You can imagine how hard the iron vine tree is!

Huang Zhen cut the tree stalk to 2.4 meters long, slightly smaller than his wrist! Huang Zhen held it in his hand and gestured, feeling a little lighter, after all, his arms now have thousands of pounds of force...

Huang Zhen rode on a black iron horse, held a tree pole, and practiced gun skills! Practicing guns on the ground was the integration of horse stance and guns, while practicing guns immediately was the integration of man and horses. This is the difference, but the principle is the same.

Huang Zhen was riding a horse while practicing gun technique. He was not proficient at the beginning, but two days later, his marksmanship became more and more proficient. On the third day, he could already combine people and horses!

Huang Zhen was riding on a black iron horse and a wild dog rushed out of the woods. Huang Zhen immediately lit the hare's head with a splash. A bird flew past behind him. Huang Zhen thorned his backhand, and the bird fell straight down.

Huang Zhen was so excited that he rode his horse and ran wildly. The trees on both sides of the mountain road and the iron rattan poles on Huang Zhen’s hand were thorns on both sides. The tree poles on both sides were thorned through. After pricking 360 big trees in one breath, Huang Zhen finally managed to get the poles!

On the sixth day, Huang Zhen finally left the official road. There were about 180 miles from the official road to Jiagu City in the northwest border! Huang Zhen's black iron horse was extremely fast. From Chenshi to the time of the time, Huang Zhen had already arrived at Jiagu City in the border border!

Jiagu City is built on a Jiagu, and the city is very tall! On both sides of the city are two huge mountains that stretch for thousands of miles. The only exit is at Jiagu between the two mountains. The city is built at the same place as the opportunity to sit on the mountain. The city also locks the northwest passage. This is the main throat and the first pass of Zhao. It is really a pass for one man to be the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it! This natural barrier also makes the neighboring country in the northwest at a loss. Although it has been attacked for a long time, it has lost its troops and generals! Therefore, the two countries have always been in the same position...

Huang Zhen came to the city gate and turned over and dismounted! There were more than a dozen soldiers guarding the city gate! Seeing Huang Zhen approaching, one of the soldiers asked, what are they doing? Huang Zhen took out the transfer document and handed it over. When the soldier saw it, he immediately changed his smile. Oh, it turned out to be the newly appointed Zuo Pioneer, please, please, please!

A soldier led Huang Zhen into the city. The streets in the city were very wide, and there were shops on both sides of the street, but there were not many customers. Many businesses wrote the words for rent at the door. It should be because of the influence of the war, and many people fled back to the mainland!

The soldiers led Huang Zhen to the center of the city and came to the front of a mansion! The plaque on the gate of the mansion had three big words "Pioneer Mansion", but the gate was closed tightly! The soldiers bowed and left!

Huang Zhen tied the black iron horse to the horse-tie stone, stepped forward and moved the copper ring to knock on the door, and chewed... The sound was very heavy and loud!

After a while, the door opened. A forty-year-old man opened the door and bowed to Huang Zhen and asked, "What's wrong with the young master?"

Huang Zhen took out the transfer document and showed it to the man, saying, "I am the newly appointed Zuo Pioneer, this is the transfer document!"

The man took the document and read it carefully, then immediately bowed and said, "The villain's surname is Qian Fu, and he is the housekeeper of the Pioneer Mansion. I don't know that Lord Huang takes office, please forgive me!"

Huang Zhen waved his hand and said, "Those who don't know are not guilty! How many people are there in the mansion? Call them all, let me see!" After a while, there were 7 people, including Mr. Qian. Four men and three women! The housekeeper pointed to a middle-aged man and said, "This is Uncle Cai and Aunt Cai. Uncle Cai is usually responsible for going out for procurement and running errands. Aunt Cai is responsible for cooking. They are a couple!" He pointed to a man in his thirties and said, "This is Cao Yang, who is in his twenties, and said, "This is Xie Tian, ​​responsible for the safety of adults and the protection of adults' travel!" The other two girls, Xiaofeng is eighteen years old this year, and Xiaotian is seventeen years old this year. "They are responsible for the adults' daily life and diet!" Mr. Qian introduced everyone in one breath.

Huang Zhen said: "Are you the Zhao State's first mate to the mansion? I, Huang Zhen, took office for the first time today, and you are here. I remember that the employer is selected by the master, whether it is necessary or not!"

Qian Manager said: "Yes, adults can choose people separately. According to their positions, they are not worthy of employing people in China, but in Jiagu City, it is possible. It was temporarily formulated by Emperor Zhao to stabilize the Qian Frontier General! Our salary is distributed uniformly by Zhao State."

Huang Zhen said, "You all go, I don't need to use people for the time being!" Huang Zhen walked inside and wanted to get familiar with the Pioneer Mansion. The Pioneer Mansion also has both internal and external access. The owner lives inside and external access, and the outside is for the user. Huang Zhen walked inside and then looked at each access!

Suddenly I heard a cry, "Jess Feng, this time my master doesn't want us anymore. Where are we going?" "Xiaotian, don't cry anymore, you are helpless, follow me, I have a distant relative, in Jiangyang County, the journey is a bit far away..."

When Huang Zhen heard this, he immediately walked out of the door and saw several people packing their luggage. Huang Zhen left the Qian Butler and said, "You all stayed. I don't want to choose people anymore. You all stayed!"

When Mr. Qian heard this, he was immediately very happy and shouted to the other employers: "Sir, please put down your luggage quickly and make it safe!" Everyone was also very happy when they heard it.

Mr. Qian said again: "Cao Yang went to pull the horse to the manger to feed him. Uncle Cai and Aunt Cai went to buy vegetables and cook, and was preparing to welcome the adults. Xiaofeng and Xiaotian were relieved for the adults..."

Butler Qian was very knowledgeable! Huang Zhen took out a 500 taels of gold ticket from his arms and handed it to the butler: "Let's use it first, you have to ask for daily necessities!" Butler Qian took the gold ticket and bowed to Huang Zhen, "Thank you, sir!"

Butler Qian took Huang Zhen to the Pioneer Mansion again. Huang Zhen asked: "When was the previous Pioneer transferred?"

Manager Qian was stunned, and then secretly said: "Chen Liang, the left pioneer, was ambushed by the enemy when he went to war. This was the first three months! He didn't even need the corpse back. He was only twenty-eight years old, unmarried, and even a descendant didn't stay... We were all his employers, and we followed him for three years!"

Mr. Qian said again: "Tian Wensheng, who took office again, was surrounded more than three years ago and died in the battlefield!"

After hearing this, Huang Zhen also looked secretive, then smiled and patted the Butler Qian on the shoulder and said, "They are them, I am me, and as long as I, Huang Zhen, appear, will leave a legend!"

After a while, the hot water was cooked. Xiaofeng walked to Huang Zhen and said, "Sir, the water has been filled with the bucket. Please come in and wash it!" Huang Zhen nodded and followed Xiaofeng to the room. Xiaotian was trying to get the water temperature and mingled with the water. When Xiaotian saw Huang Zhen coming, he immediately said, "Let me take a bath with Sister Feng!" After that, he came to help Huang Zhen untied his clothes!

Huang Zhen took a step back and said, "I'll do it myself, you guys go out!"

Xiaofeng said: "Does sir, dislike us?"

Huang Zhen said: "I have been taking a shower myself since I was a child. I am not used to others coming to serve me in a bath. I am not disgusted with you. You are thinking too much, just wait outside!" Xiaofeng and Xiaotian could only walk out of the bathroom and wait outside!

After Huang Zhenshu finished washing, he only came out in his underwear! Xiaofeng Xiaotian was waiting outside with clothes. When he saw Huang Zhen coming out, he immediately helped him get dressed. Huang Zhen could only smile bitterly and let them go...

After Huang Zhenshu washed, after lunch, he took a while, took Xie Tian with him, and then went to see General Cheng Yuanting when he arrived in Shenshi!

The General's Mansion is even larger, covering an area of ​​about twenty acres. There is a pair of big stone lions on both sides of the gate! Four guards stand at the gate, two on the left and right, with their figures straight!

Huang stepped forward and bowed and said, "I am the newly appointed Zuo Xian Huang Zhen. I come to see General Cheng. Please report to the general on his behalf! This is the appointment document, and he has handed over the document as he said!"

The guard took the document and looked at it, immediately smiled and said, "Please come with me, General, you can come in and see you!" Obviously, his prayer played an important role in his brother Cheng Shaohua's letter!

Huang Zhen followed the guard into the general's mansion, while the guard Xie Tian was waiting outside! The guard took Huang Zhen through the courtyard three times in a row, and went to a study in the inner courtyard, and saw the famous general Cheng Yuanting in the northwest.

Cheng Yuanting is about fifties, with gray hair and beard. He is tall and strong, but his abdomen is slightly large and he gains weight!

Huang Zhen immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, "The descendant Huang Zhen came to take office and meet General Cheng!"

Cheng Yuanting looked at Huang Zhen for a while, and saw that Huang Zhen was tall and long arms, wide shoulders and thin waist, and a pair of long legs. He could see the raised muscles! His face was calm and calm, his facial features were upright, and his straight nose was covered with big black and white eyes! A heroic spirit penetrated into the heaven!

"Okay, okay, okay!" Cheng Yuanting said three good words in a row, and said, "I also know that you have become a sworn brother in Shaohua. I now think you are my own family. Nephew, please sit down!"

Huang Zhen sat down, so naturally someone offered incense tea! Huang briefly explained his affairs in the Second Lieutenant Camp and his swornship with Cheng Shaohua!

General Cheng nodded while listening and said, "I know you are extremely brave. As a general, I am a general and command 100,000 people in reputation, but Deputy General Yang Da is the commander of the vanguard army. In name, he is also under my control, but it is not advisable to interfere too much. There are more than 10,000 Zuo Pioneer, so there must be some people who are dissatisfied with your appointment. You can do it. As long as no one dies, it is normal to hurt a few."

Huang Zhen said: "Uncle, I know it in my heart!"

Huang Zhen took Zuo Xianfeng's seal, bowed to Cheng Yuanting and left the general's mansion! This is considered to have officially taken office.
