147. Young Talents
"Come to Zhuo County is like coming to another world."
A young scholar sighed at the surrounding environment. Everyone here had a smile on his face and the roads were clean and tidy. The people's mental outlook was much better than other places.
"If the tribe members are moved here to settle down, it will be a good place." The young scholar said to himself. He was handsome and outstanding in appearance. Standing in front of the city gate, he stood out from the crowd, which was very eye-catching.
"I heard that Fengxiao was an official under Liu Zhe, so I saw him this time. I haven't seen him for many years, so I miss him very much." The young scholar thought for a while and had a certain plan in his mind.
"Sir, if you want to enter the city, please be as soon as possible. Please do not stop others." At this time, a soldier guarding the city gate came over and said to the young scholar. His attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was polite and respectful, which made the young scholar look up high.
Then I saw that the other soldiers were full of energy and stood upright, and did not extort the people entering the city, which was completely different from those in other places.
The young scribe did not say much, but moved aside and let the people who were pushing a cart behind him enter the city. He saluted the soldiers and asked, "Is there a young man named Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao by your provincial governor?"
"Sir, know Aide Guo?" The soldier was surprised and alert.
The young scholar nodded and smiled, "That's right, I am an old friend to him. Can he be in the county?"
The soldier shook his eyes and said, "He is not in the county, he and the governor have left the city. What are you going to do with him? If there is no important matter, you can wait a few days. If it is an important matter, I can take you to the county government office, and the chief clerk is in the county."
After the young scholar thanked the soldiers, he did not rush to find Guo Jia, but continued to stroll around the city.
By noon, Zhuo County was noisy, and the whole county seemed to be boiling, with a lot of people walking out of the city.
"What happened?" the young scribe was surprised and found a hawker who had not left and asked.
"Young Master, don't you know?" The vendor glanced at the young scholar in surprise, and then said affirmatively: "Young Master is definitely not from Zhuo County or even from Zhuo County, right?"
"I came from Yingchuan and first arrived in Guidi." The young scholar replied.
The vendor smiled and said, "No wonder, the several commanders and Hei Lin Army who suppressed the rebellion today have returned."
Black Lin Army?
Young scholars had heard of this team. It is said that it was a team built by Liu Zhe who spent a lot of money to pacify the Yellow Turbans and make them famous all over the world. Some even called it the most powerful team in Youzhou and even the Han Dynasty. Compared with the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, Xuzhou Danyang soldiers were even more powerful.
"If the young master wants to see it, I suggest you go up there. Lord Mu of the Prefecture will ask them to parade around the city later." The vendor pointed to the restaurant behind the young scholar and said that the restaurant was three stories high, and you can look down from above. The terrain is very good and there are already many people on it.
After the young scholar expressed his gratitude to the vendor, he was curious and went to the restaurant, ordered some wine and food, and waited slowly.
The drums outside were shaking the sky, and the people were cheering endlessly.
"Here, come." Someone upstairs shouted, and with a clamor, almost everyone on this floor rushed to the window to watch.
The young scholar also walked to the window and looked out curiously.
Not far away, a black cavalry team appeared on the street.
After seeing them appear, they cheered loudly around the people on the street, their voices deafening. Some bold little girls blushed and threw some tokens into the hands of a cavalry, while some children were laughing and joking with the team. Some father-in-law were pounding cigarettes next to him, and praised him repeatedly.
Is this the Black Lin Army?
The young scholars were surprised. Their team was neat and firm, and they rode on horseback, majestic and breathtaking. After they took off their helmets, they were surrounded by the people. A shy and unnatural expression appeared on their faces, which was far from their might.
"It's amazing. It would be great if I could join the Hei Lin Army." Someone in the restaurant sighed.
"Don't dream, just rely on your figure, you have to be at least half." A companion quipped.
"Don't think that the Black Lin Army is easy to join. If you can join the Black Lin Army's reserve, the security team will be considered as powerful." Someone attacked.
"The Black Lin Army is the heart of Liu Zhou Mu. Do you know how much a Black Lin Army costs?" someone said.
"How many?"
The young scholar was also curious about this issue and couldn't help but listen carefully.
"At least one hundred gold."
"One hundred gold? How is that possible?" Some people don't believe it.
"Don't believe it, I'll count it for you. Look at their mounts, they are all bought from the grassland outside the border. A horse is worth dozens of gold, right? Then you are looking at their armor, and a set of armor also costs dozens of gold. This is not counting as guard helmets, and then look at the weapons, spears, and short swords in their hands. You said, can this be made without a hundred gold?"
The young scholar smiled, but in fact the man was wrong!
In the eyes of young scholars, a cavalry of the Black Lin Army costs at least 200 gold. Their equipment alone is more than 100 gold. If these equipment is in other places, they can be used as heirlooms, but here are ordinary standard equipment.
From this point of view, Liu Zhe is really not an ordinary person. The young scholar sighed in his heart.
