Chapter 51

The mighty vulture is hovering in the sky, relying on its terrifying eyesight, it can see everything on the ground.

Because of having such an excellent investigative partner, Li Yao and the others can gallop without worrying too much about sudden danger.

As long as you often look up and observe the status of the eagles and birds, you can roughly judge whether there is an ambush around. Although it is not very accurate, the eagles can't find it, and people may not be able to find it.

After all, they still need to face it by themselves. There are more than 20 knights with complete bows and horses. Even if they encounter bad guys, the bad guys have to make a detour.

Even some rogue bandits, no matter horses or weapons, no matter food or training...it is absolutely impossible to be better than them.

Dare to lead people across the grassland, Li Yao naturally has confidence, and this confidence comes from his own force.

Boo!Boo!Boo!
The rapid sound of horseshoes spread continuously, riding on the grassland, the surroundings can be described as endless, which makes people feel the heroism of the sky.

At this time, Li Lin looked at Li Yao, and because of the howling wind, he shouted loudly:
"Brother, shall we go directly to the barracks?"

Hearing this, Li Yao pondered for a while.

The military camp is in Lingju, and the Qiang School Wei's Governance Office was originally a fortress, controlling Hexi and Longyou, and even a section of the Great Wall, just to guard against the Huns.

However, with the continuous outward expansion of the Western Han Dynasty, the entire land of Hexi was completely transformed into the four counties of Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang, and there was no need to take too many precautions.

Although Lingju is still a fortress, it is also a county seat at the same time, and even serves as the school guarding the Qiang school, where Huangzhong Yicong was stationed.

Lingju is in the east and Linqiang is in the west, so to go to the military camp, you need to cross the grassland.

And on the way from Linqiang to Lingju, there will be another place - Xiping Pavilion.

This place developed well. Although the Xiping Pavilion disappeared later, it was at the same location, and finally Xining City reappeared.

Thinking of needing to pass through this place, Li Yao looked at the crowd, waved his big hand and said with a smile:

"Go to Xiping Pavilion first, to visit old friends!"

After hearing what Li Yao said, no one objected, and then they slightly adjusted their direction and rushed towards Xiping Pavilion.

The conditions in the wild are relatively difficult, but they can hunt at any time. Apart from the poor living conditions, the food is still good.

The ecological environment of this era is very good. Many places are rarely visited by humans, and the damage to nature is relatively small. There are many kinds of animals that fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the water.

As long as you have the ability, you will never starve to death!
On the second day, Li Yao and others rushed to Xiping Pavilion, and then went to Qu Yi's house on a familiar road.

The biggest feature of this century-old wealthy family is that it has a large number of clansmen, and there are clansmen with the surname Qu everywhere, both inside and outside the city.

They enter all walks of life and can hold power, so their influence is extremely large.

As for Qu Yi, because of his personality, he is arrogant, aggressive, and aggressive, so he lives in Wubao outside the city all year round.

It was not the first time for Li Yao to come here, he had often looked for Qu Yi in the past three years, and he was quite familiar with the location of his home.

It was also a coincidence that Qu Yi was at home at this time!
"Haha..." Seeing Li Yao coming to the door again, Qu Yi looked very happy, took his hand, and laughed boldly:
"Ah Yao hasn't come here for a long time. Let's get drunk today and go on a horse safari tomorrow to see if your archery has improved!"

Li Yao also had a smile on his face. Although he didn't want to spoil the fun, he said truthfully:

"Brother Qu, I'm here today, and I'm sure I'll get drunk with you, but I'm afraid we won't be able to go on a horse safari tomorrow, and we have to continue on our way, to Lingju, to the barracks..."

Qu Yi's face froze when he heard this, and then became a little gloomy, not to Li Yao, but to himself.

Because Qu Yi suddenly discovered that the brothers who used to drink and eat meat together, and go hunting with horses, have grown up now and are going to join the army.

But he himself is still like this, he can only drink and ride horses all day long, not knowing what to do in the future.

Although you have ambitions, you can't achieve them!
After a while, thinking that Li Yao was still here, Qu Yi smiled again, and said with difficulty in a low voice:
"Then congratulations!"

Seeing Qu Yi's appearance, Li Yao planned to recruit him. If this attempt fails, he will have to wait for another opportunity in the future. Then he said tentatively:

"Brother Qu is well-equipped with both bow and horse, and he can hit a hundred shots with one hundred hits. Why don't you go to the military camp with me, and you will definitely be able to use your meritorious deeds in the future!"

Qu Yi heard the words and wanted to ridicule, but seeing Li Yao's expectant face, he swallowed the words again.

don't get angry...don't curse...

This is my brother!

With this thought in mind, Qu Yi finally calmed down, and then showed a rebellious face:
"I have courage, good at riding and archery, and good at the art of war. Even if I want to become an official in the future, I should be a prefect to conquer. High officials and rich salary are available at my fingertips. I will definitely not start as a small soldier. I will never say this again in the future!"

In fact, Qu Yi showed affection and didn't say it too bluntly. He recognized Li Yao as a friend, but he didn't recognize Li Wenhou and Beigong Boyu. They were definitely not Mingzhu.

Even from Qu Yi's point of view, the two of them are mediocre people who can only do their best in Huangzhong.

As for Huangzhong Yicong, this army is indeed elite, but as a frontier army, and it is composed of foreigners, even if it has a formal establishment, it will still not be valued by the court.

No matter how well you do in the future, the most you can do is obey the leader. Even if you make meritorious service, you will not be able to enter the court.

Although the Qu family has indeed declined, but their knowledge is still there. The imperial court has always used money to drive foreign troops.

When the Qiang and Hu people rebelled, they recruited the Huns and Wuhuan people as soldiers...

When the Huns rebelled, they recruited the Qiang and Hu people, and the Wuhuan people as soldiers...

The rebellion of the Wuhuan people can be solved by the Han people. After all, the Tuqi in Youzhou is also powerful in the world...

As for the foreign troops, after the imperial court quelled the rebellion, they were sent away with money at will, and they would not really be given official titles at all.

After all, one radish and one pit, there are only so many officials and titles, and there are not enough points for our own people, so we will definitely not give them to outsiders.

This tradition has continued from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty through the disputes of the Three Kingdoms to the Western Jin Dynasty, but the Western Jin Dynasty was too rubbish, the emperor was fatuous, the harem interfered in politics, the ministers were corrupt, and the kings rebelled... exhausted all the heritage of the Han people, and all the foreign races rebelled together, and the Western Jin Dynasty was completely finished.

Because of these reasons, Qu Yi refused. His ambition was too great, and it was not something Huang Zhongyi could pretend to be.

Li Yao stopped talking when he heard this, knowing the arrogant Qu Yi, he would not easily be inferior to others.

Although they were not successful in attracting them, they were still friends. They drank wine and ate meat, had a good night's rest, and continued on their way the next day, and Qu Yi saw them off in person.

After parting, Koji whispered:
"The world is so big, who is the master?"
