The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 2 Chu’s sacrificial wine in the camp

Wang Mi glanced at the generals, but none of the generals immediately stood up to express their stance.

After all, whether they are Liu Tai, Wang Zhang, or Wang Sang, they are all direct descendants of Wang Mi, and it is natural to support Wang Mi.

Other different military leaders, such as Li Gu and Cao Yi recruited by Wang Mi, were fine, and they agreed after thinking about it.

But among the rebel forces, Liu Ling, another military leader besides Wang Mi, was still thinking carefully.

Because Liu Ling himself is a guy who is afraid of chaos in the world. After Wang Mi's uprising, Liu Ling took the initiative to bring people to surrender. Coupled with his natural supernatural power, at least Liu Tai may not be Liu Ling's opponent until he reaches adulthood. This makes Liu Ling He is quite prestigious among the rebels.

Therefore, Liu Ling became the second largest force in this peasant army and the one that Wang Mi had to persuade.

Liu Ling looked at the eyes of everyone looking at him and immediately showed a chrysanthemum-like smile.
"Brother Wang's eyes are as bright as fire. I think Liu Yuan will not treat us badly!"

Liu Ling answered quickly, but his thoughts were also changing. He had already thought about it, and he was different from Wang Mi.

Wang Mi is from Donglai in Qingzhou, and most of the backbone of this rebel army are from Qingzhou. They were beaten and left Qingzhou. Regardless of the siege of Luoyang, in reality, they were just trying to survive.

But for Liu Ling, his surname is not only Liu, but also more or less the same surname for Liu Yuan.

The most important thing is that Liu Ling's hometown is Pingyang, north of the Yellow River. For Liu Ling, there will be more room for performance when he returns to the north.

Therefore, Liu Lingzhen doesn't have so much moral and ideological baggage. What's wrong with working for the Huns? The world is like this. Working for the Huns is better than working for the Sima family.

After everyone made a decision, Wang Mi immediately sent Wang Zhang as an envoy to the other side of the Yellow River to contact Liu Yuan's forces.

As everyone dispersed, Liu Tai did not stay in the main camp for long, but returned to his own camp.

"Shaojun, are you back?" Liu Ming, a 21-year-old corps commander under Liu Tai's command, came up to him.

Liu Ming was also a servant given to Liu Tai by Liu Tai's father, Liu Bogen, perhaps because their family had been tenants of the Liu family for generations. Even if Liu Bogen was defeated, as long as Liu Tai was not dead, Liu Ming still decided to follow Liu Tai.

As for Liu Tai himself, who was eleven or twelve years old, even with his natural power and Wang Mi's support, it was not easy to truly control an army. At least for many daily tasks, Liu Ming was still needed to assist him.

"Is there enough food in the camp today?" Liu Tai said.

"Ming has taken the brothers to the place where the grain was buried to retrieve it. If we continue to maintain three meals a day, I think it will last for a month or two!" Liu Ming said with a somewhat gloomy expression. ,

"But after the defeat, the morale of the brothers is very low. Please pay attention, young gentleman."

"I understand!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "From tomorrow on, training will be the same as before, eating will be the same, and classes will be the same!"

"Wei!" Liu Ming agreed after hearing Liu Tai's words.

In the entire military camp, Liu Tai's army was almost the only refugee unit that required daily training, three meals a day, and classes. To some extent, it was a bit incompatible with the entire rebel army.

Liu Tai adopted a policy of leniency in entry and leniency in exit. Anyone who couldn't stand Liu Tai's rules could leave at any time, as long as Liu Tai didn't stop him.

Therefore, Liu Tai's military camp has the highest flow of soldiers.

However, Liu Tai has a nominal establishment of 1000 people, but he only accepts a maximum of 500 people, in order to save food as much as possible.

Liu Tai knew that most of the refugees came to the camp just because they could have three meals here, and because Liu Tai had a protective attitude, he gradually attracted 430 seven people.

Liu Tai organized the troops in this way, and the rebels looked down upon him and even made trouble. But whoever made trouble would be beaten by Liu Tai.

In this troubled world, fists are the last word. If you don't accept it, just endure it for yourself.

Anyway, except for Liu Ling, who couldn't beat them, Liu Tai showed no fear.

And Liu Ling is somewhat shameless. As the most powerful general in the entire rebel army, he is also the second most powerful in the rebel army. If he fights against Liu Tai, if Liu Tai loses, it is natural. How can he still fight against someone? 12 year olds care.

If Liu Ling loses, haha, that would be a big deal.

Liu Ling is really not as good as Wang Mi in dealing with people. A very important reason why he can secure the second position in the rebel army is his own force.

And Liu Tai himself knew that his behavior was somewhat unsociable in this rebel army.

But Liu Tai understood better that since it was the end of the Jin Dynasty and he was still an insurgent army, he could only rely on his soldiers to protect his life.

As for the displeasure and provocation among colleagues, Liu Tai doesn't really care about even slander.

After all, miHoYo has carved a niche for itself by relying on its content, and the entire game industry has vilified it.

Wouldn't it be nice to just play the skin-changing game?Why do we have to work so hard to create content? How can we make money just lying around?

This is Liu Tai's problem. Liu Tai needs to be responsible for his own life. If the people around him are unhappy, then don't be happy. Just be happy yourself.

Liu Tai understood that the uprising was not a treat, but a real gamble on life. Even if it could give him one more bargaining chip, that would be good.

It's like he thought he was born with supernatural powers, but his father died.

I thought I was invincible at the age of 12, but when I met Liu Ling, I was beaten violently.

Therefore, Liu Tai learned well.

Although he still fully believed that he would be invincible when he grew up, he still recruited soldiers for training.

Training requires eating well, so three meals must be ensured. Liu Tai even made some broth when he looted Xuchang.

All in all, Liu Tai also knew that the rebel army was a piece of shit, but after all, it was a rebel army of 8 people.

Liu Tai really didn't believe that there were so many people without talent.

Of course, I don't ask for talents, as long as I have talented people who can accept my orders and understand my ambitions, that's enough.

After all, most normal people can survive to the level of a centurion even if they rely on experience.

Not to mention that here we have fought against the Jin army many times and walked back and forth several times between life and death. Not to mention veterans of hundreds of battles, everyone here is at least at the level of a veteran of ten battles.

And these people, working together on the battlefield, are not said to be able to win the battle, but at least they can protect themselves enough.

"By the way...Chu Jijiu didn't escape, did he?" Liu Tai couldn't help but asked Liu Ming with a little worry. "That boy Ge Datou is watching with ten brothers. Please don't worry, young gentleman!" Liu Ming said respectfully.

"It's good that you haven't left. I'm busy these days. I'm going to meet Jijiu!" Liu Tai nodded with relief.

Liu Tai walked to the tent where Chu was offering wine, and Ge Xin came up to him. Ge Xin's head was a little bigger than that of ordinary people, but his body was a little thin, and his head seemed a bit uncoordinated, so he often appeared in the military camp. He was called Ge Datou.

"Ge Xin, is the sacrificial wine safe inside?" Liu Tailuo asked Ge Xin with a bit of inquiry.

"Very good, he's not dead yet!" A somewhat majestic voice sounded from the camp, "Come in yet!"

Hearing this voice, Ge Xin wanted to laugh, but didn't dare to laugh, and finally said, "Camp Master, please!"

Liu Tai couldn't help but take a deep breath, turned to Ge Xin, "Do you want to go in together?!"

Ge Xin looked up to the sky. Although he was Liu Tai's confidant, facing Chu Jijiu, forget it. He didn't want to enact military regulations.

Liu Tai had no choice but to enter the barracks with a bit of wind and water. He happened to see Chu Jijiu wearing a Confucian robe, holding a ruler, and his face was calm and confident. He immediately accompanied him with a smile. Said, "Chu Jijiu, I have been neglecting you these days!"

Chu Jijiu looked at Liu Tai and said in a deep voice, "Liu Yingzhu, you are amazing. They went to attack Luoyang and sent ten people to stay and watch me. You are treating me as a prisoner!"

Liu Tai's smile became even more friendly and he said, "What are you talking about!
As long as you offer wine and swear by the Confucian sages, you will not leave our camp. Then I promise that such a thing will never happen again! "

"What a scoundrel!" Chu Jijiu couldn't help but look ashamed and annoyed when he heard Liu Tai's words, but he took a few deep breaths, calmed down and said, "When I came over, I saw that your army camp had been set up on the bank of the river. , are you planning to cross the Yellow River north?

It seems that this time your courage has been shattered by the court! "

"It is precisely because our courage is still there that we have to cross the Yellow River north. Otherwise, we might surrender to the Jin court!"

Liu Tai looked at Chu Jijiu and said, "It's better not to count on the Jin court for Jijijiu. They didn't continue to pursue us when we set up camp by the Yellow River, which means that for them, it's enough for us moth thieves to be driven away. They are afraid that they are still fighting for power and profit in Luoyang City!"

When Chu Jijiu heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. He really didn't understand why the Jin Dynasty was already in ruins just a short time after its establishment. !

When Chu Jijiu thought of this, he became angrier and angrier. His face turned cold and he said, "Stretch out your hand!"

"Ah?" Liu Tai couldn't help but be startled when he heard what Chu Jijiu said. He looked at the ruler in Chu Jijiu's hand and said:
"Chu Jijiu, you can't hit me just because I mentioned your pain points. It doesn't make sense!"

"Who said I beat you because the court is corrupt and officials are fighting for power! Who do you think I am!"

Chu Jijiu said with a serious face, "I'm beating you because there were 53 wrong words in the "Book of Rites: Quli" you handed in last time."

"I know...I know!" Liu Tai couldn't help but closed his eyes and stretched out his left hand.

"Pah, pah, pah..." Chu Jijiu picked up the ruler and started beating it without hesitation.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Ge Xin listened to the voice coming from inside, but he could feel the pain of the camp owner!

However, in the entire military camp under the command of the camp leader, no one had ever been beaten by Chu Jijiu Jingzhi, but the camp leader received the most beatings.

Speaking of which, Ge Xin didn't understand why the camp owner managed to get such an old man to serve as a sacrificial wine.

I have become a thief, but I am still forced to learn how to read and abide by certain rules and regulations.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't defeat the camp owner and the fact that he had three meals a day, he would have wanted to leave.

But that's all I can think about. Although it's not as fun as other rebel troops here, they drink and eat meat in big bowls. When they're unhappy, they plunder the people wantonly, and when they're in a mood, they can directly kill the people.

But staying in Camp Master Liu's camp made me feel more or less like I was still a human being, not a beast.

Ge Xin couldn't help but let out a long breath and heard that Camp Leader Liu's wailing was still continuing inside the tent!
After 53 strokes of the ruler, Liu Tai's hand felt swollen. Liu Tai said pitifully, "Chu Jijiu, you are serious!"

"Don't blame me. You are obviously good at carving, but in the end you made a mistake because of your carelessness. You must be taught a lesson!" Chu Jijiu said with a stern expression, "Lest you make such a mistake again in the future."

When Liu Tai heard this, he opened his mouth to refute, but finally closed his mouth.

The reason why he made many typos was that Liu Tai learned ancient characters and it was easy to write them into simplified characters.

Although there is paper in this era, you can't expect the rebels to have this thing.

So the most common thing I get is bamboo or wood chips, and then I use a knife to carve words on them to learn calligraphy.

Because it was carved with lettering instead of written down, it would be very troublesome to modify it.

Then Liu Tai finished writing a whole article, which was basically full of typos or alterations. This made it almost daily for Liu Tai to study typing.

Liu Tai took his left hand and blew it. This was his brother, and he might have to work part-time as a clothesman in the future. How many times did he blow it every day? He looked at Chu Jijiu, who was facing him. Liu Tai looked at each other without fear.

Then Liu Taixian gave up and said, "As for the wine ceremony, we will have classes as usual tomorrow, so I'll take my leave now!"

Can't stand it, can't stand it...

Liu Tai was thinking about why he was blind in the first place and chose such a teacher.

Damn it, does he know what fists are the last word? Even for himself, he would do this to death!

But Liu Tai took another look at his identity as a moth thief. Forget it, don't be picky, it would be good to have a teacher. He should wait until Liu Yuan's territory to see if he can tie up another scholar.

Chu Jijiu watched Liu Tai look at him, only to run away in the end. He couldn't help but shake his head, but a smile appeared on his lips unconsciously.

But soon, he looked at the simple roof of the tent with a hint of sadness in his expression.

How could he, a dignified Marquis of Guannei in the Jin Dynasty, end up serving as a sacrificial wine to a moth thief?

Hey, I would have avoided the main road if I had known about it, but who would have known that among the few moth thieves, the youngest Liu Tai was actually born with supernatural powers.

He also had some skills, but against an unreasonable opponent like the innate divine power, Liu Tai knocked him unconscious and put him in a sack. When he came out of the sack, he was already in the rebel army.

He couldn't let Wang Mi know his identity, otherwise his Chu family might be implicated.
