Chapter 794 Military Nobility
The Western Wei Dynasty did not expect that the war with the Qing army would turn into a tug of war.

In November, a heavy snow covered the land of Guanzhong. In a village formed by immigrants from southern Henan in Shangzhou, a lame man, wearing a cotton jacket and a cotton cap on his head, was directing several young men , packed up the corn at home, loaded a few furs into a cart, and prepared to transport them to the city for sale.

"Boss, everything is ready!" A young man shook the snowflakes on his body and smiled.

The lame man nodded, "This year's harvest is good. When you go to the city to exchange money, I will pay you the wages. This year, I have nothing to do here. You can come over next spring!"

"Boss, I may not be able to come next year!" The man smiled innocently, his expression seemed a little proud.

The lame man was taken aback, "What's the matter? I hate my low wages and don't want to work in my field!"

"No! No!" The man shook his head hastily, "I'm looking for a place in the old man, and my boss paid me the wages, so I have to go back and prepare to take the imperial examination. If I pass, I won't be able to come here."

"I want to serve the king!" The lame man stood up, "Come on, my master invited you to eat mutton today. If I didn't hurt my feet, I would be a traveler now. You have strength, and you eat this bowl of rice. material."

The man smiled innocently and said, "I didn't think too much about it. Even if I don't become an officer, the government still has land. I just want to make some contributions and earn some land. In the future, I will be like my boss, the landlord and the rich, and hire people to work."

"You son of a bitch, you actually said that I am a rich landlord~" The lame man was furious, and he was about to have a good talk with the man, but a cavalryman on a healthy horse galloped into the village and came to the village in the middle. In Guchang, the big bell hanging on the old tree next to the ancient well was rang immediately.

"Go and have a look!" The lame man hurriedly said.

People in the village heard the bell, and the men also put on cotton clothes and hats one after another, and gathered at the threshing ground one after another.

The bell rang very quickly, and those who had been trained knew that at this time the government sent someone to announce a major event.

"Old Deng, what's the matter?" A man came out in disheveled clothes. It was cold, and he was idle at home. He was responding to King Wei's call, making a villain on the kang, and it was like a conditioned reflex when he heard the bell. He handed over his gun and ran out in a hurry.

"I don't know, there is a big battle on the front line, maybe we have to go to corvée!" The lame man called Deng Ping, who turned out to be a team leader of Wei Wujun.

As they spoke, they had arrived at the threshing ground, which was already surrounded by the people of the village.

At this time, riding on a fine horse, with flags on their backs and several bamboo tubes on their backs, the cavalrymen saw that people were coming, so they untied a bamboo tube, took out a roll of documents, and read aloud: "The front line is tight, the king ordered troops, far away." Wei Wujun Jianrui Battalion A Division A Division C Division A Sentinel Deng Ping, Xiaowu Battalion Personal Guard Sun Zhongjian~~~~, order you to pack up your soldiers immediately and go to Zhechong Mansion to wait for your appointment!"

Deng Ping, a few retired veterans whose names were named, sank, knelt on one knee in the snow, saluted and accepted orders, "No!"

At present, the cavalry gave each of them a military letter, which stated their appointment, and they would go to Fucheng to serve as officers of the Dingzhong Battalion and rush to the front lines of Hedong and Henan.

After the cavalry delivered the order, they immediately pulled the reins of their horses and galloped away.

A few old soldiers stood up, speechless for a while, put Deng Ping's book in their arms for a while, and laughed loudly: "I didn't expect the king to use us."

"It must be that those turtles on the front line can't do it. If you encounter tough stubble, you have to look at us."

The group dispersed from the valley, and Deng Ping returned home. After giving some instructions to his wife, children and old father, he took the armor and led out the horse, with a sword and long spear hanging on the saddle.

The retired soldiers of the Wei army will not be removed from the military status. The vassal mansion can be recruited again at special moments, and the army will not confiscate armor and weapons. After retirement, he is also allowed to purchase weapons and horses and continue to enjoy military status. Otherwise, they will not be able to enjoy the treatment of military membership.

Many retired soldiers, in order to keep their status, will train their sons and brothers to participate in the selection of government soldiers. In order to win, retired soldiers often spend a lot of money to buy weapons and horses to train their offspring so that they can better than ordinary people.

Of course, the feudal government of the Western Wei Dynasty will also give them some support for this, such as transferring the eliminated soldiers and horses to them at a lower price.

Deng Ping bid farewell to his family, then got on his horse, walked outside the courtyard, and suddenly said to the long worker beside the mule cart: "Gusun, your master is not a rich landlord, it is all earned by your master's service for the king. According to the king In other words, I am a military aristocrat, do you understand!"

After finishing his speech, Deng Ping galloped away, and when he arrived at the entrance of the village, there were already two old men waiting.

The three of them gathered together, looked back at the village, and galloped north in the wind and snow.

A few days later, in the direction of Shangzhou heading north to Tongzhou, several infantry marched eastward, and suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes, and a Mongolian cavalry of nearly a hundred people roared past and galloped eastward~~~
······
In Puzhou, in the dark night, on the front lines of the Wei and Qing armies, the flames of the guns flickered from time to time, and occasionally a ball of red light burst out, and several figures flew up.

After many days of fighting, the Wei army has already broken through the two lines of defense of the Qing army by virtue of their superior equipment and equipment.

At this time, the Wei army had nearly 2 casualties. Of course, because there were medical soldiers and officers, and the Wei army's armor was very sophisticated, many injured soldiers could still be rescued if they were rescued.

The casualties of the Qing army were much more serious than that of the Wei army, but the casualties were mainly from the green battalion, Baoyi, and forced conscripts. Azig still had thousands of elite banner soldiers.

In the Wei army camp, Gao Yihuan put his hands on the sand table and listened to Li Dingguo's words: "My lord, our army has broken through the two defense lines of the Qing army, and the Qing army has only the last one left, but Azig is now continuing to build behind this line. There is no way to break it one by one."

Gao Yihuan's eyes were bloodshot, he raised his head and said, "Jin Shenghuan sent the news, Geng Zhongming has already withdrawn to the east, presumably the decisive battle between the Ming and Qing Dynasties is about to be decided, and the lonely king must break through Azig as soon as possible."

As he said that, he looked at Li Dingguo and the others and said, "The lonely king can no longer wait, what else can you do?"

Everyone looked at each other, Li Dingguo said: "Your Majesty, Azig is more difficult to fight than us. I think there is no shortcut now, just see who can't hold it first."

Guanzhong is adjacent to Shaanxi, but the transportation between the two places is not convenient.

The section of the Yellow River from Hetao to Puzhou has fast-flowing water, and most of the banks on both sides are cliffs, which are not suitable for large troops to cross the river.

Historically, it was very difficult for the Six Kingdoms to attack Qin and the Japanese army to attack Shaanxi. On the other hand, it was not easy for the Wei army to attack Hedong. The roads were really limited and the time was too late.

Hearing the words, Gao Yihuan clenched his fists, "Then the only way is to knock Azig down hard. It's not the same thing if the lonely king sees it going on. It's time to launch a general attack!"
