Chapter 257 [Archers Team]
Han Mo was not angry at all and smiled gently, while Dou Shan had already scolded in a deep voice: "Snow Guardian, how can you speak in the camp? Han Guardian is the first to come and is also my colleague, how can you be rude?"
Xue Shao was unwilling to give up with his neck, and Han Mo had already said, "Sir, don't be upset. I think the lieutenant Xue Gu is also unintentional." He had no airs, but was reasonable, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little favor.
Han Mo said to Xue Shao with a smile: "The archer of Xue Hu was originally from Xuezhuang, Qilian Town, Lanhe County, Yichun County. He practiced archery since he was a child. He went to the mountains to hunt at the age of ten. He shot two wolves for the first time. The villagers in the village were all amazed. When he was fourteen years old, Xue Hu's archery skills were already the best in Xue Zhuang, and there was no one to fight against him. At the age of twenty-six, Xue Hu's archery skills entered the capital and was selected for the Yulin Camp. Because of his extraordinary archery skills, he was transferred to the archer of the Leopard Camp. Half a year later, he was promoted to the small flag and a year later. Later, he won the title of the Leopard Camp archery competition and was promoted to the lieutenant. A year ago, he was promoted to the lieutenant... But I don't know if there is any difference what I said?"
Han Mo told the story, including Xue Shao, all of them were stunned and somewhat disbelief.
Most of the people present, except for Dou Shan, the chief lieutenant of the guards, who had worked with Xue Shao for many years and knew that they had a humble background, they did not know Xue Shao's true background, and they did not know that Xue Shao shot and killed two evil wolves when they were ten years old. Therefore, after Han Mo said it lightly, he was shocked and turned his gaze to Xue Shao.
Xue Shao is likes and dislikes on his face. He doesn't need to answer the answers to some questions, and everyone can see them. So when he saw Xue Shao's surprise, everyone immediately understood that Han Mo said, but I'm afraid there was nothing wrong with what Han Mo said.
Xue Shao opened his mouth and finally asked, "You...how do you know this?"
His mind was a little too hard to turn, but he didn't think about it. In addition to the guardian, Han Mo was the director of the Xihua Hall. It would be a breeze to investigate his information.
What's more, Han Mo has always wanted to fight a prepared battle. Now he is going to work in the Leopard Turks, from top to bottom. Naturally, the information of officials above the lieutenant was ordered to investigate the Xihua Department, and he also has a foundation in his heart.
The generals of the archery team even remembered their background and temperament.
Seeing Xue Shaodong ask, Han Mo already smiled slightly, "I have heard of the name of Xue Shao and Xue Guardian Army. I can know about those feats."
Han Mo told him about his ten-year-old killing of the wolf, and everyone immediately became even more respectful to Xue Shao. Xue Shao saw this. Although he was not a person seeking fame, he felt indescribable comfort in his heart. At first, his strong disgust for Han Mo suddenly decreased a lot, and he just snorted but didn't say anything.
When Dou Shan saw Han Mo raise his hand, he reduced Dou Shan's anger a lot. He glanced in his eyes with praise, and then he coughed, and then smiled at Han Mo: "Han Guardian, but I wonder if you have ever met the commander?"
Han Mo knew that he was asking if he had visited Jen Qinglun. Although Jen Qinglun was not in the Leopard Camp, his prestige had not been reduced. Most of the generals in the camp were promoted by Jen Qinglun.
"I have already met the commander." Han Mo said respectfully: "The commander told me to do a good job in the Leopard Camp, and I would like to ask Lord Dou for advice."
"Then I dare not ask for advice." Dou Shan waved his hand and smiled, "Actually, although my archery team is not large, it is very hard to manage things. The commander made the adults feel uncomfortable and come to the barracks less. However, every time we come, we have to inspect the barracks and check the training results. Therefore, we must train more elite soldiers and not be negligent. Now, the major events of the Leopard Turf Camp are temporarily managed by the Cavalry Team Murong He and Murong Chan. The military exercises and other affairs held by the Leopard Turf Camp are all hosted by Murong Chan. This military exercise is once or twice a month. If you perform well, you will naturally be rewarded. If it is not good, hehe...!"
"What happens if it's not good?" Han Mo couldn't help asking when he saw a strange look on Dou Shan's face.
Dou Shan smiled and said, "The military exercise will be held in a few days, and the Han Guard will know it. But the Han Guard doesn't have to worry... Well, yes, the emperor said that the Han Guard can not be in the military camp. But Han Guard, you are the general of my Baotu camp, it's okay. But during the military exercise, if there is no major matter, I hope you can come to the middle of the camp on time. Otherwise... hehe, otherwise, I'm afraid Murong Shenling is unhappy, so there will be some... some... um, but if there is really an urgent matter, the Han Guard will arrange it by himself... this..." He spoke hesitantly, as if a fishbone was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.
Han Mo looked at the other people's expressions and saw that most of the generals looked strange. The fierce general Xue Shao stared at his eyes, blew his beard, and his face showed dissatisfaction.
Han Mo didn't know if Xue Shao's dissatisfaction was targeting him or because of other things, but he immediately said: "Sir, General, the last general has heard clearly. Every month, the last general will definitely point Mao in the camp!"
Dou Shan smiled kindly and said, "Okay, okay. Yes, Guard Han, why don't you accompany you in the camp first, and you will be familiar with it!"
Han Mo immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Mr. He is busy with military affairs, so he dare not work hard." He glanced at Xue Shao and said, "If it is convenient for the lieutenant Xue Guard, I wonder if the lieutenant Xue Guard will take me around?"
Xue Shao was stunned and opened his eyes wide: "Me?"
Han Mo clasped his fists and said, "Please trouble the lieutenant Xue Hu!"
Dou Shan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Emperor Xue Hu Junwei, I will let you take Emperor Han Guwei to get to know each other around the military camp. Don't violate the order, otherwise... hehe, you are engaged in military law!"
He had long known that Xue Shao was very dissatisfied with the children of such aristocratic families, but he didn't know why Han Mo fell in love with this guy. He could not refuse. He could only remind Xue Shao with the words "military law" to not make things difficult for Han Mo.
How could Han Mo not know Dou Shan’s thoughts? He smiled slightly at Dou Shan, then got up and saluted everyone in the tent, and whispered loudly: “Han Mo will rely on you to take care of you in the future.”
The generals stood up and returned the greeting politely.
After leaving the tent, Han Mo smiled again and said, "I'm really troubled by the army guard Xue."
Xue Shao glanced at Han Mo and said lukewarmly: "Can Guard Han stay in the military camp before?"
"Well... When Bozhou County suppressed the rebellion, it was too effective in the aristocratic army, but I wonder if it was considered to be in the military camp?" Han Mo said with a smile.
Xue Shao's face suddenly showed a strange look and asked, "Guard Han, I heard that you were leading a thousand cavalry across the Ligu Mountains and around the back of the Ye family army. They suddenly attacked, caught the Ye family army off guard, knocked down ten sentries along the way, and even killed Ye Tianmeng, the most powerful general in Bozhou County, and opened the door of Ligu Pass, but they didn't know whether it was true or false?"
"Fake!" Han Mo said without hesitation: "That's fake!"
Xue Shao immediately showed a "very sure" expression and laughed: "I think so, it seems that this is true. It seems that this rumor cannot be believed."
Han Mo said sincerely: "Emperor Xue Hujun is right. This rumor can only be heard as a joke. It cannot be believed. There are too many false things in the middle that cannot be prevented."
Xue Shao looked at Han Mo with some surprise and said, "Guard Han, since you were not leading a thousand-man cavalry team to open the gate, how did the gate of Ligu Pass break? I have seen it there. There is no place to cross the Ligu Mountains for hundreds of miles, except for Ligu Pass. I have been wondering how the aristocratic army entered the pass."
Han Mo laughed and said, "Actually, the gate of Ligu Pass was really opened by my cavalry, this is a fact!"
Xue Shao frowned and said, "Didn't you just say that this is just a rumor?"
"The rumors are true and false." Han Mo said with a smile: "Since the lieutenant Xue Hu wants to know the inside story, I won't hide it from you. In fact, there were no one thousand cavalry at that time, but only eight hundred cavalry warriors. We did cross the Ligu Mountains that were claimed to be unsurpassed on a cold winter night. We did catch the rebels off guard and destroyed the posts along their way in succession... By the way, it's not ten, but seven, and this rumor exaggerated three. As for Ye Tianmeng, I only found out his identity afterwards... In fact, the rumored No. 1 strong general in Bozhou County is just that. The rumor is exaggerated, haha..."
He smiled with a spring breeze on his face, but Xue Shao said in surprise: "What are you saying true? Then... are they true?" He then looked at Han Mo with a strange look with a look of doubt.
Han Mo stared at him, pondered slightly, and finally showed a strange smile, "Rumor, it's also a rumor!"
Xue Shao was stunned and touched the back of his head, full of doubts.
Although the camp of 5,000 people is not very large, it is definitely not small, and it is all full of weapons.
Xue Shao first led Han Mo to the instrument depot. The lieutenant who managed the instrument had already led several warehouse managers to wait. There were so many longbow rain arrows in the instrument depot, which were neatly placed, and the arrow boxes were filled with feather arrows.
"The rule of our Imperial Guard is that the instrument depot must be full." The captain of the instrument depot explained: "But if there is a military order, you must set out immediately, so the instrument depot cannot be negligent at all. These arrows are refined from the Ministry of Works' Arrow Workshop, with short arrows and long arrows...with the same bows...!"
When Han Mo saw that the bows in the instrument library were of different sizes, he asked, "What are the requirements for these bows?"
"Sir, this bow is divided into hard bows and soft bows." The captain replied carefully: "It is difficult to pull hard work, but the arrows shot out are fast and have sufficient strength... the soft work is different. The bow of the same stone requires much less strength, but the speed of shooting out is much weaker."
Han Mo grabbed a bow and made it in his hand. The bow was made ingeniously. The black wooden bow and the string were made of beef tendons, which were also excellent in elasticity and toughness.
"If the recruits enter the camp, they will use soft bows first. If they practice the soft bows well, they can then use hard work." The captain said: "At the minimum, the archers of our Imperial Guard must pull a soft bow with one stone to be qualified to stay."
Xue Shao had already looked at Han Mo and asked, "Guardian Han, but I don't know how many stones of bow you can pull?"
Chapter completed!
