The West Street of Yongkang is the military camp of the city guards and is affiliated with the Yongkang Institute.

Zhao Baihu is the highest commander here. He is usually responsible for Yongkang's city defense, and there is nothing to do.

It’s nothing more than walking around the city walls at night. In October every year, I supervise the transportation of the baggage. In addition, I usually go home to do some farm work and help the family share some housework.

When he entered, Zhao Baihu lay lazily on the lounge chair inside the city gate, untidy and drowsy.

The sky was still very vicious. The two big-headed soldiers guarding the city gate were almost smoking. They were leaning against the city wall, dozing on the edge of the city wall.

On the city wall, seven or eight veterans patrolled the city wall. One of them returned to the city gate and hurriedly threw the soap armor on his body on the ground, quickly lifted his collar, trying to cool down two pieces.

Walking in the front was a fat man. He said impatiently: "It's too hot, you guys are watching here, but today, someone from above was caught. I'll go down and cool down."

After saying that, he carried his sword and walked down the city wall with a reluctant look on his face.

The remaining brothers were liberated and hurriedly untied their belts and hid in the shade.

It was noon at this moment, and a veteran hurriedly untied his wine gourd and drank two sips.

Then he wiped the wine stains on his beard and muttered, "This hot day, President Qi is really a man. He insists on letting us find defense. You said that this is a big understanding of the day, will there be robbers?"

"Old man Wang, didn't the flag just now? Someone is coming from above, and you are drinking, so the person above catches him, and be careful to eat military sticks." At this time, a young young man smiled.

When Old Man Wang heard that, he hurriedly hid the wine gourd and said, "Oh, it's not anyone who came here, it alarmed Zhao Baihu."

"That's not true. The Qianhu people came down in person yesterday. I think something might happen this time." Another young man said.

When Old Man Wang heard this, he couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "Don't be foolish, he looks like he has never seen the world before. What big things can happen to Yongkang in this palm-sized place? In my opinion, it may be that the commander and his wife have a fight again, so come down to take us out of anger."

Suddenly, the people around him burst into laughter.

At this time, I heard the flag manager under the city tower say, "Sir Baihu, it's almost noon, let's go. Find a place to have a drink?"

When Zhao Baihu saw it, it was noon and thought to himself that it was probably 80% less than that, so he stood up and said, "Well, I heard that a new chef has come to a restaurant on East Street here. Let's go there to try it?"

"Okay. I heard from the adults. But this time I have to let the younger one pay."

"It depends on your promisingness, how many of you are? Don't invite me to have a drink, go back and ask your wife to deal with you. Let's go, I'll treat you." Let's say that, the two left one after another.

The officers and soldiers on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they were far away.

Old Man Wang took out a bag of lotus leaves from his arms, and after opening it, there were two cold steamed buns inside.

He picked it up and took a bite and said, "Or it's good to be an official. Look at what other people live, and then look at us."

"If you always have the ability, don't be a stubborn person, do you go to be an official?" A young man smiled disdainfully.

Old Man Wang said disdainfully: "That's because I don't want to be. If I want to be a boss, I don't think it's a big problem."

"Just blow." Everyone said verbally.

Old Man Wang was not angry. At this age, he could not think anything, so he sneered: "What do you know? I am really not quite good. Do you think that being a flag is always based on your military achievements? In this peaceful years, what kind of military achievements are? Isn't it just to see who will curry favor with others. If I put down this posture, I will curry favor with others."

"You always say that just like you flatter, others will let you be an official. Our Banners, when giving gifts to the New Year, they will drive there in a car. Just give you a Banners, can you afford this gift? If you dare not give gifts, the chief will wear you little shoes next year. In less than two days, you will be able to pick you off."

"Yes, but our Banner General is also a smart person. After becoming Banner General, people often walked around with the county magistrate. Didn't this build a wasteland in the east? I opened a winemaking workshop, and I heard that it would make a lot of money a year. At least, those yamen didn't dare to ask for money, and the local gangsters wouldn't mess with him. Recently, I opened a pharmacy shop in the south of the city, and I heard that the business was good. Now my life is much easier than before." Old Man Wang smiled.

Then he saw a recruit with pickles in his purse, so he went over to break a piece of it. Everyone sat on the city wall and was having fun eating. He heard a vague sound of horse hooves coming from afar.

Old Man Wang was too old and was alert. He hurriedly got up and took a look. He saw flags waving in the distance, about a hundred fast horses, raised dust in the sky, and rushed towards Yongkang.

"No, there is something wrong." Old Man Wang didn't dare to eat it anymore. He hurriedly wrapped the steamed buns with lotus leaves, kicked them into his arms, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, close the city gate. Maybe it's a robber."

The soldiers on the city wall suddenly became busy, and the lower wall of the city wall and the gate of the city gate were in a hurry. Finally, when the cavalry rushed over, the gate was closed.

When the cavalry arrived downstairs, Old Man Wang was stunned.

There are very few cavalry here, and even if there are thousands of houses and more than ten war horses, it is not easy.

After all, most of the cavalry were in the north and were ready to go to war with the Mongol Yuan at any time. In the south, there were generally cavalry of this size, which was rare.

"Who are you? Report your name, otherwise I would be polite." Old Man Wang shouted.

At this time, a man came out of the cavalry and pointed at the old man Wang on the city wall and said angrily: "Old man Wang, I don't know you anymore? I'll keep his mother shutting the city gate, you want to rebel!"

When the old man Wang saw that it was not someone else who came, but it was the commander of the martial arts. He was so scared that he shivered all over and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry open the city gate."

The commander of the martial arts is their highest commander, and it is rare to see it. In the past year, when military rations were collected at the end of August, he would appear. Now, staring at the scorching sun has arrived in Yongkang. Old Man Wang hurriedly said, "Go and find the adults, and you will say that there are important people coming."

At this time, something even more shocking to Old Man Wang happened.

In his eyes, Commander Wu was the biggest official he had ever seen.

However, at this time, he actually saw Commander Wu turn over and get off the horse and lead another person.

The man was covered in armor and helmet, but the horse he rode was a purebred southern Xinjiang horse, with snow-white body and no miscellaneous hair on his body, which was very valuable at first glance.

A person who can ride such a war horse must have a small official rank. Unfortunately, he is illiterate, so he asked curiously: "Xiao Wang, look at what is written on his flag?"

Xiao Wang said: "Zhang Dafu, the deputy commander of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Commander Commander."
