Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

Wearing a mountain military cap, a straight military uniform, and a black eye patch, Lu Yiming walked on the street with his head held high, attracting curious attention from passers-by.

His original name was Goudan, and he was a slave in the royal manor. He was eighteen years old. After joining the army, he changed his name to Yiming. He performed well in training and became a second lieutenant platoon leader of the third company and third platoon of the first royal regiment.

In the battle of Zhuxian Town, he was hit by two arrows and was injured and could not leave the line of fire. He did not fall until his right eye was hit by a stray arrow.

Lu Yiming was lucky enough to survive the arrow that penetrated his head, but he was blinded in one right eye. He received temporary treatment at a field military hospital and was sent back to the Royal Military Hospital in the capital to recuperate after he was out of danger.

Due to his bravery in battle, he was wounded and stayed in the firing line, which greatly inspired the morale of the entire regiment. He was awarded the Bronze Empire Medal of Loyal Valor, promoted to captain and company commander, and awarded two hundred taels of silver. Not only did he get rid of his slave status, but his family also benefited. Not only did they receive a series of preferential treatment, but both brothers were freed from slavery.

He also has two younger sisters, plus his parents and two sisters-in-law, who are still slaves of the village. In order for the whole family to get rid of their slave status and become free civilians, he secretly vowed to work hard and make more military exploits.

Lu Yiming was very motivated and listened to what Zhu Youjian said during the training. A qualified soldier, especially a commander, is not only brave in combat and dares to fight hard, but also needs to be more literate and have a certain cultural foundation. Only by being able to better understand and execute the various orders issued by superior commanders will the room for advancement be greater.

A soldier who does not want to be a marshal is not a good soldier.

Lu Yiming kept this sentence in mind, and he studied reading and literacy seriously with military clerks when he had time. His diligent efforts paid off. His literacy rate in the military ranked first, and he was able to write simple letters. .

Before his eye injury healed, he took leave and went out on the street. In addition to buying a few pieces of fabric to make new clothes and some snacks for his parents, brother, sister-in-law, and some snacks, he also went to the bookstore to buy books such as The Three Character Classic that could help him improve his literacy rate.

He had already planned in his heart. The two hundred taels of silver bonus, excluding shopping expenses, would be given to his parents, 10 taels each to his two brothers, five taels each to his two sisters, and the rest. Keep the money for yourself and save some money for marrying a wife in the future.

Lu Yiming's face is square and rough, like a knife cutting an axe, with clear edges and corners. At first glance, he gives people a tough impression. The straight gray and black military uniform makes him look masculine and heroic. The black eyepatch not only does not make him look ferocious and intimidating , on the contrary, it added a bit of power.

In the eyes of some people, it may be a domineering and evil spirit that shakes people's hearts, but in the eyes of most people, it feels heroic and mighty, and there is even an inexplicable sense of security. In the hearts of some Huaichun girls who are about to get married, In addition to an inexplicable sense of security, there is also a strange feeling of ripples in the lake of my heart.

In the eyes of some women, especially those widows whose husbands died, or some restless women, there is an inexplicable hunger. The black eye patch is too handsome, domineering and powerful. If that is the case, To be so powerful and domineering, two words - perfect.

The reason why Lu Yiming is eye-catching is that apart from the gray and black straight military uniform that is completely different from the traditional uniform, his appearance and temperament, his mental outlook that is completely different from that of the old army, and the black eyepatch, it is mainly because of the former Zhu In the battle of Xianzhen, the powerful combat power displayed by the Royal First Regiment has been talked about by people, and the popularity has remained high.

People have become quite curious about the First Royal Regiment. However, all new armies have strict military disciplines and difficult training. In addition, time is tight. Generally, except for the special forces who enjoy special treatment and can occasionally take a vacation to go shopping, the soldiers in the field troops are basically idle. During the hard training in the military camp, there was almost no time for shopping.

After Lu Yiming bought a few books, he turned around and went to the cloth shop to look at the fabrics. As he was walking, a beautiful handkerchief fell from the sky and covered his face. For a moment, the fragrance hit his nostrils and made him drunk.
