Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

"We are His Majesty's personal guard, the Imperial Guard. We have come to speak to your commander. Inform him immediately."

After hearing what Zhang Hai said, the soldier's heart sank immediately.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards are the emperor’s personal army!

It can be said that they are second only to one person, and anyone else, whether they are civil officials, military generals, or royal relatives, can be arrested.

As a result, when he came to the military camp to discuss something with the commander, he was scolded by himself. This was a complete setback.

What if the other party holds a grudge and uses this incident to cause trouble for me, then wouldn't that be...

Thinking of this, the soldier became more and more worried, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

But at this moment, the soldier next to him whispered:

"You must return to the camp immediately to explain the situation to the commander, apologize, and ask for punishment."

"We are all family, and the commander-in-chief won't punish us too severely, but if we let them speak out later."

"Due to the rules, the commander-in-chief cannot protect you even if he wants to. At that time, you will at least suffer a lot."

After the soldier finished speaking, the soldier's eyes lit up immediately.

"Yes! Gouzi, thank you. I'll remember this."

After saying that, the soldier turned around and ran towards the military camp without saying a word. At the same time, the soldier looked at Wei Wu again.

"My dear lords of the Imperial Guards, my comrades have gone to report to the Commander. Please wait a moment."

"It doesn't matter."

Wei Wu responded casually, but he looked at the soldier with interest.

This little guy doesn't look very old, probably only about seventeen or eighteen years old, but he is tall and strong.

He looks oppressive, but he is actually quite smart and loyal.

He has been helping his comrades since just now.

Although Wei Wu didn't hear what they said, he could tell from the huge contrast in the soldier's reactions before and after.

If this soldier hadn't stopped him, that outspoken soldier would have really taken action, and today's incident would have ended badly.

Seeing that Wei Wu was staring at him, the soldier named Gou Zi felt strange and didn't understand what he meant.

But he didn't dare ask more questions, so he could only turn around and continue guarding the gate.

At this time, Wei Wu suddenly asked a question.

"What's your name?"

"Your Excellency, I am Li Goubao."

In ancient times, people would give their children unpleasant names, believing that children with unpleasant names would be easier to raise.

"You don't look very old, probably only around seventeen or eighteen. Why would you want to join the army?"

Li Goubao looked at Wei Wu strangely, then explained:

"Because my father is a soldier."

After hearing this answer, Wei Wu remembered that the Ming Dynasty’s army was a military household system that was passed down from father to son.

If the father is a soldier, the son will also have to serve in the army when he grows up, mainly to ensure that the country has a stable source of soldiers.

"Looks like I need to talk to Old Zhu about the issue of system reform. When firearms become more common in the future, we'll just need to follow the elite route."

Wei Wu was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the military camp.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in military uniform walked quickly out of the camp gate and approached Wei Wu.

"Everyone, I'm He Cong, the captain of the garrison. The commander is already waiting in the military tent and has ordered me to take you into the camp."

Although He Cong was a captain of a garrison, his rank was much higher than Zhang Hai and others.

However, due to the special nature of the Jinyiwei, He Cong still gave them considerable respect.

Looking at He Cong who was clasping his fists, Wei Wu smiled slightly and responded:

"Then I'll have to trouble Captain He to lead the way."

"please!"

Afterwards, under the leadership of He Cong, Wei Wu and his party successfully entered the guard camp and arrived at the central military tent.

As soon as I entered the military tent, I saw a man in military uniform sitting in the middle with a sword in hand.
