On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, all the soldiers of the Dengzhou Tuanjie Battalion participated in the "Laba Hunting" held by Cui Yunqing and Song Wen, and held a hunting day party together. On that day, soldiers and horses from all departments of Dengzhou led their troops to participate. This hunting was not only a Laday sacrifice to thank the gods, but also a celebration for Cui Yunqing's promotion to the Jiedu Marshal Sima and Deputy Ambassador of the Battlefield, and Song Wen's succession as the governor of Dengzhou. Both of them had issued letters of appointment, and the official plates had been delivered. After the hunting, a grand banquet was held, and the handover between the two governors was completed.

Cui Yunqing left Dengzhou in a carriage the next day. Before leaving, he finally asked Li Jing once, hoping that Li Jing could go to Qingzhou with him. Li Jing refused without hesitation. He could see that Cui Yunqing had a little loneliness and disappointment in his eyes. He knew that although the teacher was promoted on the surface, he would actually step into a thorn. Why isn't he himself doing this?

In the morning, he went to visit Li Yan, King Zhao of Dengzhou, Song Wen, as well as Han Zhong, the envoy of Ruzhu City, Liu Jian, the envoy of Longshan Camp, Xu Cheng, and others. In addition, he also visited Cui Zhang, the envoy of Youyi's envoy of the Great Xie Fort, who came to see Cui Yunqing farewell. Cui Zhang and Cui Yanqing were actually cousins. This was the first time Li Jing knew about it. Cui Zhang seemed to be very clear about the grudge between Li Jing and Cui Yanqing and his uncle and nephew. When they saw Li Jing, they were a little cold and unrestrained. They only talked a few words before they could say anything to each other. This discovery made Li Jing a little depressed. Before they even arrived in Shamen Town, they had an immediate boss who was hostile to him. This was definitely not a good thing.

There was a banquet to celebrate Song Wen's promotion to governor in the evening, but Li Jing was in a bad mood, so he sued Song Wen and returned home early.

When I left Dengzhou in the afternoon, the sky was gloomy. Not long after walking far, snowflakes suddenly fell. Fortunately, the snow was not heavy and there was no rain, so the team did not stop and lined up two columns to continue moving forward.

This time when he returned home, Li Jing kept the three hundred sets of equipment that he had just spent 1,000 guan to buy in Dengzhou's warehouse. Anyway, after recruiting soldiers after the New Year, he had to pass here when he went to the monk to take office, so he simply stored the equipment here. As for the equipment of other soldiers from the left Yidu, Zhang Hong originally suggested that they stay, but Li Jing finally rejected the proposal. Since these people are soldiers, no matter when, they should go, they should take the equipment with them.

Fortunately, although there are many equipment in Zuoyidu, there are sixty donkeys, ten horses and four war horses. In addition to the four horizontal knives, spears, iron armor, and bows and arrows, Li Jing also required to wear them when traveling, other equipment was carried by donkeys and mules, including the rewards and settlement fees obtained by these soldiers.

Many soldiers were eager to go to the city to buy grain after receiving the reward. Li Jing was a little amused and wailed by this practice. It took more than 300 miles from Penglai to Qingning Township for five or six days. He was a little stupid to take the grain home with them all the way, and it was not as good as buying it in Chishan. However, he did not prohibit those people from buying grain. He knew that most of the soldiers' families were poor before. A month ago, many people could not even eat the food. In the eyes of these people, the food was much more real than silk and copper coins. Moreover, buying grain in Dengzhou was indeed a little cheaper than buying it back to Chishan.

For this reason, Li Jing also brought all the five carriages he had in Lin Wei's house. The soldiers' equipment was carried by donkeys and mules, but the food was transported by horse carriages. There were only five carriages, but each soldier basically bought a lot of food. With the rewards they received, on average, one person had about four stones of rice, and a total of more than four hundred stones, which could not be loaded at all. In the end, Li Jing advised them to store most of them in the Dengzhou warehouse, but there were still two hundred stones.

Originally, Li Jing wanted to order each person to bring only five dou of rice at most. In the mess, Yu Youniang and Li Huier appeared. They were still dressed as men, not in a carriage, but riding two beautiful white horses, with two maids in the same outfit around them. Li Jing thought they were here to see him off at first, but when they spoke, they felt that they were bored in Dengzhou for a long time and wanted to follow Li Jing to Wendeng.

Li Jing was very surprised when he heard this news. He persuaded him a few words, but both of them ignored him. He also said that he had already told King Zhao that King Zhao had agreed. He also handed him a handwritten letter from King Zhao to Li Jing. After Li Jing opened it, it was indeed a handwritten letter from King Zhao. There was no specific one on it, that is, the princess and Yu Youniang went to his house as a guest, so he asked him to take care of him. With this letter, Li Jing had to agree to go with the two.

The two of them received the agreement. Seeing that Li Jing and the others could not set off on time because of the ridiculous pile of food, they sent a maid back and soon brought back fifteen more carriages. At this moment, one carriage was loaded with ten stones, and twenty carriages were only loaded with two hundred stones of grain, but they were more relaxed. Soon each carriage was half full and set off.

Along the way, the soldiers of the left capital were fully armed and marched in marching arrays. One hundred men were divided into three teams, one in front and the other in the back, and the other was serving as baggage soldiers, responsible for the load donkeys and carriages carrying equipment.

The families of Lin Wei and Lin Wu brothers are all in Chang'an, and according to them, there are no one else in their family except the two brothers. So neither of them used this month's holiday to go home, but followed Li Jing to Wangli Village. Wang Chong's home is in Qingzhou, but he did not go back. He followed Li Jing to Wendeng like Zhang Hong. For them, this is not only to go to Li Jing's house, but also to recruit soldiers. Now they have chosen to follow Li Jing to Shamen Town, and they have taken this matter seriously.

However, although Li Huier and Yu Youniang brought two carriages, they would rather leave the carriage there and ride horses along the way. The two of them looked at everything on the way, pointing at this and then pointing at that time, laughing constantly, which made the young soldiers shook their heads and wait and see. Li Huier and Yu Youniang, plus their four maids, and the six young women dressed in men's clothes, their handsome faces still made the young soldiers feel unscrupulous.

Li Jing didn't have much colds with the two of them. First of all, they were already familiar with each other, and secondly, he knew in his heart that he had no fate with these two people. Since it was impossible, he would simply not think about those irrelevant things. What he thought more about was the first group of subordinates who were evaluating his own. There were still many vacancies in his Shamen Town, waiting for him to promote.

From noon to dark, more than 100 people marched in full arms for a long time, and they didn't even take a break on the road. Moreover, the marching formation was well maintained, with horses probing in front and a ranger behind, which was completely in line with Li Jing's requirements. It seemed that his training in that month was still quite effective. Compared to when they came a month ago, their progress was too great.

"Brother Lin, look at which of these people is suitable for promotion?"

Lin Wei rode on the horse, carrying his beloved horse lance, and turned his head when he heard this, "These people are all good, young and well-founded. After the fourth brother's training this month, they have already looked like a soldier. However, if you want to talk about an officer, you are not as strong as a strong man and good at martial arts. An officer does not need to be the most brave, but should be calm, experienced and able to think. From this perspective, I think it is better to choose older people to do things with stable focus. Those who are arduous can choose to be the flag bearer and deputy flag bearer."

The flag bearer is very important for a team, sometimes even second only to the team leader. When talking about merit, the first merit is to kill the general, the second merit is to seize the flag, the second merit is to protect the team leader, and then save the flag, and then cut the number of beheadings. When the two armies fight, if the team leader loses the team, then there will be no one to command the entire team. If the flag bearer loses the flag, he will not be able to command the entire team and lose morale. Therefore, the flag bearer has always chosen those who have strong individual skills to serve as the person.

Li Jing had high expectations for Zuo Yidu, which was the first team he led. It was also the officer group he was looking forward to. In the future, his team would definitely be divided from here. It can be said that to a certain extent, whether Zuo Yidu can lead him well is related to his entire team in the future.

For three and a half days, Li Jing and the others maintained excellent formation and good speed. Every day, they were fully armed and hiked for 80 miles. On the fourth night, they took six days to go to Dengzhou. They only took three and a half days to reach Chishan, and only a dozen miles were left from Wangli Village. However, Li Jing did not return to Wangli Village directly. In fact, many brothers from the left had already passed by their homes, but Li Jing still did not disband.

Everyone in Zuoyidu stopped until Chishan. The army must look like an army. This has always been the words Li Jing never forgets to say.

"Stop moving forward, stop in Chishan Village at the foot of Chishan Mountain tonight. Notify the soldiers on duty to prepare wine and meat tonight, eat and drink well, and then everyone will take their own things to go home tomorrow morning. Remember, the holiday is only on the eighth day of the lunar month, and after the eighth day of the lunar month, everyone will still gather here."

The soldiers were very excited when they heard the news. After stopping, they didn't need Li Jing to order to unload the pack, drink horses, buy and book a house. Li Jing was still very familiar with the Chishan Village at the door of his house, and took everyone directly to the largest Shira Jincheng residence on the roadside at the entrance of the village.

"Shopkeeper, we have all your store tonight!" Li Jing said directly into the store.

A middle-aged man with a rich face behind the counter bowed to Li Jing with an apology: "This guest official is really embarrassed. The shop is full, please go somewhere else."

Li Jing looked around the store. The huge store was empty, and there was not even a figure walking around. It didn't seem to be full. "Boss, I'll spend a lot of money on you."
