"Are you Sergeant Zhao... Sergeant Zhao?"
At this moment, a timid voice sounded in my ear.
Zhao Muyun looked up and saw a dull-looking young man carrying a package appearing behind him.
"Yes, I am! Who are you? What do you want from me?"
"Zhao...Boss Zhao, my name is Shi Yong. I'm a soldier who's going to serve in your Yanqingdun. My superiors told me to come find you!"
The young man scratched his head and stammered out his intentions.
Zhao Muyun immediately looked him up.
At first glance, this guy doesn't look very smart, like a new recruit, but he is quite strong.
"Zhao...Zhaotou, do you think I'm stupid and don't want me anymore? I...I'm very strong...Please don't reject me again!"
Seeing that Zhao Muyun didn't say anything, he just stared at him.
Shi Yong felt uneasy, at a loss, and looked pleading.
"What do you mean by quitting?" Zhao Muyun looked puzzled.

"I'm all alone, I don't have any land, I'm dumb, I go hungry, and I can't make any money. Muramasa said I could get paid to join the army and have enough to eat, so I came!"
Most likely, the conscription quota in their village was shared out, and other families didn't want their sons to suffer and die, so they sent this single young man.
"I see you speak quite fluently, you're not stupid at all!"
"Come, come and get my horse!"
Compared to those veteran soldiers, Zhao Muyun prefers to have his subordinates be these simple and honest farmers, after all, he himself has the same background.
"Zhao...Boss Zhao, you won't chase me away? You want me?" Shi Yong looked surprised, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Um!"
