Li forgets worry and thinks it makes sense. The public security of Datang is not very good. It's really dangerous to go out alone. With his small arms and legs, I really made money this time. It's really two questions whether I can get it back safely.

Li forgot to worry about it and said to Su Changqing, "early tomorrow morning, I'll go to the old village chief and ask him to introduce two powerful villagers and escort me."

Su Changqing thought for a moment, nodded and agreed with him. It should be no problem for the villagers to protect Li forget worry.

The next morning, Li Qieyou again refused Li Heng's request to follow him to the county. He carried the package that Su Changqing had packed for him, and went out of the house to the old village.

The old village is in the west of the village, not too far from Li forgetful's house. When Li forgot to worry, the village was already up and busy with all kinds of farm work.

"Li Xiaolang, what's up?" the old village was surprised by Li forgetful's visit.

Li forgot to worry and bowed: "old village chief, I need to go to Chang'an City, because there is only an old housekeeper in my family, who needs to look after the house. Could you please introduce two reliable villagers to me and accompany me all the way? I will pay them."

He told Su Changqing last night that he was going to Huxian county. In fact, his destination was Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. He was afraid of Su Changqing's inquiry, so he made an excuse to go to Huxian county to find Yang Zuan.

"How many days will Xiao Lang go?"

"It may take two or three days to delay in Chang'an city."

"That's no problem. What's the reward? Wait a moment and I'll call someone for you." old village Zheng immediately promised to let Li forget you sit in the main room. He went out to help Li forget you find someone.

Not long ago, the old village was leading two burly men in.

The two great men in Guanzhong are about 1.8 meters tall. In Datang, whose average height is only 1.6 meters, they are both giant men.

But Li forgot to worry and was slightly surprised that the two great men in Guanzhong were also disabled. One had no left hand, and the other was blind with an eye mask.

Li forgot to worry about seeing many of the young men in Dingzhou village yesterday. He couldn't help but turn his eyes to the old village.

The old village was old and refined. He couldn't see Li forgetful's doubts, so he quietly explained to him, which made Li forgetful suddenly realize.

It turns out that there are so many disabled villagers in Dingzhou village because they were all government soldiers before.

The Tang Dynasty followed the government military system of the previous dynasty, and all recipients aged 20 to 60 had the obligation to perform military service. Select those with good economic conditions, strong body and many men in the family as the soldiers of the government.

Government soldiers need to provide their own weapons, equipment and food and salaries. The so-called integration of troops in agriculture and soldiers and farmers, and the source of troops is guaranteed from farmers with equal fields.

However, there are many people with natural disabilities who are not injured when they go to war. With the medical conditions of Datang, there are many people with natural disabilities.

After listening to Lao cunzheng's explanation, Li forgets worry but has some doubts.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty should belong to those with relatively rich families. Why are there so many soldiers in Dingzhou village, but they are so poor?

After a little hesitation, the old village explained, "the disabled soldiers in the village are soldiers of the previous dynasty."

Before? Li forgot to worry and was stunned. It turned out that all the soldiers in Dingzhou village were soldiers of the Sui Dynasty. No wonder!

No wonder these disabled villagers are middle-aged.

These old soldiers in Dingzhou village were all soldiers guarding Guanzhong in the late Sui Dynasty.

In the 14th year of Daye and the first year of Wude, Li Yuan set up troops to invade Guanzhong and called himself the emperor and the founding of the people's Republic of China.

These soldiers of Dingzhou village were injured and surrendered to Datang at that time.

But after all, they were soldiers of the previous dynasty and had many disabilities. They were demobilized and returned to the field soon after they returned to the Tang Dynasty. As for any military merit reward, it is impossible.

From the first year of Wude to the second year of Zhenguan, in ten years, Dingzhou village, which was originally rich, became poorer and poorer.

"Xiao Lang of the Li family, these two are brothers of the Niu family. Both DA Lang and ER Lang were good players in the army in those years. Da Lang Niu Yong is missing one arm, and his brother Niu Wu is blind. Although they are disabled, seven or eight big men can't help them."

Although Li forgot to worry about the strength of the two men, he only looked at the strong muscles of the two great men in Guanzhong. He knew they were not ordinary people and quickly bowed his hands.

"Brother Niu, I need to go to Chang'an city. Thank you for escorting me."

Niu Dalang nodded and said in a muffled voice, "no problem, Xiao Lang, don't worry. Our brother will certainly protect you."

Niu Erlang, with his intact one eye, looked up and down curiously at Li Qieyou.

"Brothers, do you need to prepare?"

"No, I've brought everything. I can go now." Niu Da said, turned and picked up the weapon in the courtyard, but Li forgot to worry.

Good guy, are these guys going to war? Except for no armor, it's basically armed to the teeth.

The law of the Tang Dynasty does not prohibit people from owning weapons. Bows, arrows, knives, shields, short spears and other weapons are OK, but heavy weapons such as armor, crossbow, spear and horse armor are prohibited.

However, the Niu brothers had all kinds of bows, arrows, knives and short spears, which made Li forget his worries for a while.

Niu Yong carries a few short spears and a long knife. Niu Wu carries a bow and arrow and carries a short knife. Is this sure to escort him to Chang'an instead of fighting?

"Niu Dalang, Erlang, are you exaggerating?"

Niu Yong shook his head: "there's no big mistake in being careful. Besides, our brothers are used to it."

Well, Li forget worry has nothing to say. Anyway, it's really safe. And if there is no accident, I should bring back a lot of food and money this time. I really need someone to protect me.

Thanks again to the old village, the three went out of the village to Huxian.

Twenty miles is not too far. If adults walk fast, an hour is enough. But Li forgot to worry about his 16-year-old physique, and his body had just recovered from a serious illness. Before he walked out of more than two miles, he was out of breath.

"Dalang, Erlang, rest, rest for a while, I can't walk." Li forgets to worry about a fart - Gu sits on the roadside ridge, panting.

Niu Da frowned and looked at the sun. He turned to Niu Er and shouted, "Erlang, carry Xiaolang on your back."

"OK." without hesitation, Niu Wu took off the bow and arrow on his back and took it in his hand, so he squatted down to carry Li forgetful.

"Well, how can this be? I can go by myself." Li forgot to worry. He didn't mean to let Niu Wu carry him.

Niu Wu didn't talk nonsense with him at all. He directly pulled him on his back and walked forward with big steps. Li forgot to worry about his small physique, but Niu Wu carried him as if he had no weight at all. He was very relaxed.

Li Qieyou wanted to struggle, but Niu Wu's two strong arms were like two iron chains. He couldn't get rid of them at all. In desperation, Li forgets worry and can only be carried forward honestly by Niu Wu.

In order to ease his embarrassment and get to know the two "Heroes" who protect himself, Li forgot to worry and talked with them.

This conversation made him respect the two brothers.
