Chapter 4: Accidents

Puqixiong smiled and recommended for me: "Everyone knows the identity of General Xiao Shi. Come on, Di Zai, come and meet all your colleagues."

The Left Army is an army group unit, and these generals who commanded the troops were also officially appointed by the imperial court. For example, Puqixiong was both the left general and the general who fought against the enemy. Under himself, there were General Zhongyuan Guo Dingyi, General Shuyuan Ding Zhan, General Weide Wang Qi, etc. For a moment, the generals in the tent were star Yiyi, and I couldn't remember so much, so I could only nod.

Puqixiong introduced us to each other and held a small mobilization meeting as usual. He just brought out the bold words and read them, and then assigned tasks for each person. After the meeting, Puqixiong kept me alone. I saw that everyone was in charge of logistics and some were in charge of warning, but I was idle. Puqixiong carefully covered the door of the tent and walked to me mysteriously. I thought to myself, is it that the old man has any special tasks to hand over to me? But when Puqixiong saw that he laughed twice before he spoke, he said with an itchy expression: "Dizai - I'm just calling you that."

I said, "You treat me as your grandson."

"Okay." Puqixiong couldn't wait, "Tell me quickly, how does it feel to be a sword god?"

I laughed. Shi Cundao really knew this old subordinate. It turned out that the old man sent someone away just to ask this. I said, "It doesn't feel good. I just hit a dead mouse and ran into it without any pain or itch."

Puqixiong said disappointedly: "So, you have never learned the ways of regulating breathing in the Dantian and regulating sword energy?"

I said, "I know the most superficial thing, what is the old general asking about this?"

Puqixiong said: "I want you to see if there is any possibility of going further in my rank."

"What is the level of the veteran general now?"

Puqixiong said: "Mid-stage swordsman."

I said casually: "There is still a lot of room for improvement."

Puqixiong blushed and said, "It depends on who I am mediocre in my qualifications, and I am afraid that my life will end."

"That's not necessarily true. According to my discovery, ordinary people who have not practiced actually have a small amount of sword energy in their dantian. As long as they practice step by step, at least everyone can reach the late stage of the sword master."

Puqixiong said in surprise: "Really?" As expected, anyone would be surprised to hear this. I have been using this trick to get away with it for countless times.

I said, "Do you still remember the feeling of the Dantian when you were promoted to a sword boy? Is there a vague sword energy there?"

Puqixiong's face changed: "That's right, is it..."

I nodded: "Actually, most people have done useless work. The dantian is like a door. People want to open the door, but if they can't push it, they get on an axe and saw. But no one has ever thought about it. Since it can't be pushed open, why not try to pull it?"

Puqixiong sat in the chair with a wonderful expression on his face, which made me more convinced. After a brief depressed look, his eyes lit up again: "Is it true that you say that ordinary people can reach the level of a sword master in the late stage?"

I can only say: "The younger generation has only practiced to the middle stage of the sword master. If there is any progress, I will report it to the old general first."

Puqixiong was both disappointed and expected, and couldn't help but sigh.

After that, I chatted with the old man for a few words and then said goodbye. As soon as I reached the door of the tent, I suddenly saw Zhang Shilei and others, so I turned back and said vainly: "General Pu, please ask you something... With my current official position, what are the procedures for upgrading others to increase the rank of military rank?"

Puqixiong followed my gaze and was already clear and said, "According to the system, to replace officials above the lieutenant, you need to report to the Ministry of War. The chief general can make the decision by replacing generals below the fourth rank. What, do you have any ideas?"

I said bluntly: "My personal army leader Zhang Shilei was brave when Wei Wuji made a big fuss in the general's mansion last time, but now he is only a third-class lieutenant. I want to promote him to the position."

Puqixiong nodded and said, "I have heard of that battle. More than half of the 1,000 soldiers were killed or injured. In this case, the living should have been greatly promoted, and it is really unreasonable to be a third-class lieutenant." The old man smiled and said, "Ha, I understand. This old Marshal Shi is afraid that others will say that he used public interest to form cliques, so it is inconvenient to openly reward these warriors who have worked for the Shi family. This is too selfless."

I said, "I have given a lot of pensions, all of which are my grandfather's private salary."

Puqixiong said: "Let's do this, Zhang Shilei was promoted to first-class lieutenant, and everyone else was promoted to one level."

"Is this...right for my grandpa to know?"

Puqixiong said: "It's okay, it's not against the law. Even if the emperor asks me, I have my own explanation-" Puqixiong blinked at me and said, "'Pu's favor,'Shi's life is used. After all, this is also for the need to protect the sword god."

I understood and said, "Thank you, General General."

Puqixiong reminded me: "I will only say that their official position is yours, and I will do the procedural matters for you. In the future, anyone who needs to be promoted as appropriate can also decide by yourself."

I was both moved and a little awkward. Even though Puqixiong was honest, he had been in the officialdom for his whole life. He was still very familiar with the art of using the art of inviting people to win people's hearts.

I went out and drove Zhang Shilei and others to his tent. On the way, I told them about adding office to them. Everyone was shocked and got off the horse and knelt down, saying, "Thank you, Master Five."

"Get up quickly, everyone is a person who has sold his life for our Shi family. What is this little favor?"

Zhang Shilei was so excited that his face turned red. Once these two levels were promoted, he had been promoted from a minor official at the bottom to an intermediate commander. As for the others, they were promoted from a big-headed soldier with no rank to a small school with a monthly salary. They could not help but be excited. Zhang Shilei stood up and bowed, "Actually, Marshal Shi has given us a lot of rewards."

I waved my hand and said, "It's not too much to give me such things. You should be your officials in the future."

Zhang Shilei said seriously: "We follow the fifth young master not to get promoted and make money." Everyone agreed.

I raised my whip and cursed, "Bad, then from now on, your salary will be collected for you." Everyone laughed dryly and got back on the horse.

...

In this way, I began a unique military career. Every day, I got up with the military horn, had dinner with the soldiers, and fell into dreams with the military horn. When marching during the day, Puqixiong would usually insist on pestering me and analyze the practice of breathing with him, and actually discuss the development of war with me, and things I don't understand even more. Sometimes, the army rests briefly, and the old man will fight with me. Of course, we can be described as a donkey head and a horse's mouth, because the single move is

In other words, I have the skills of sword magic and Buddha light shining with me, and Puqixiong has no advantage, but if I don’t use sword energy, I am too far from him in terms of strength, and our situation is the same as me and Shushi, but I have a different identity. I have never forgotten Shushi. When I have free time to compete with Puqixiong, I have carefully observed his move changes and tried to summarize some experience in facing the enemy. So although Puqixiong is pestering me, I actually learned a lot from others.

On that day, the army passed through the suburbs and suddenly a group of villagers emerged from the farmland beside them to shout for justice. Zhang Shilei and Puqixiong's personal soldiers were afraid that they would be assassins, so they rushed out with their people and surrounded the twenty or thirty villagers.

Puqixiong was having a lot of fun chatting with me, and at this time he couldn't help but frown and said, "What's going on before?"

Zhang Shilei asked about the situation and said, "Return to the general, these people are villagers nearby. They said they had to tell the general about their grievances."

Puqixiong laughed and said, "I am not a state official or a county official, how can I take care of local affairs?"

Zhang Shilei said with a hint of embarrassment: "General, they say that their grievances are related to our people..."

"Oh, what's going on?"

"This..." Zhang Shilei lowered his voice slightly and said, "A woman in the village was raped and violent. They said it was ours."

"What?" Puqixiong's face suddenly fell like water, and he waved his hand and said, "Call the person who complained."

Zhang Shilei brought these dozens of villagers to the front. Among them were men and women, holding gongs and banners. He knelt on the ground under the leadership of a short and fat squire in his forties, cried and shouted. Puqixiong said in a deep voice: "Stop shouting, send someone to talk to me."

The squire climbed two steps and kowtowed, "The villain Li Si is the official in the nearby Li family village. He hired Wang, a wife who had not passed the door. He didn't want to be forced and violent last night. Please make the decision for the villain!"

Puqixiong said: "You said that the person who ruined your fiancée is in our army. You cannot say this nonsense, otherwise I will punish you for your crime! I will destroy the military name. Don't say that you are a little master, even your prefecture cannot afford to be guilty!"

Li Si stumbled his neck and said, "The villain has evidence." He said, and let him go, revealing a young woman behind him. Li Si said, "Tell me what happened last night to the adults."

The woman was about 20 years old and had tears in the corners of her eyes, but her expression was dull. No matter how Li Si slapped and shouted, she was speechless. But everyone knew in their hearts how she, a young woman, could reveal her ugly things. It seemed that this matter was most likely true.

Puqixiong became more and more angry as he looked at it. He suddenly clapped his hands immediately and said, "Come on, I'm telling me to stop the entire army. If this matter is not found out, no one is allowed to leave their camps half a step!" He asked Li Si loudly, "If she doesn't say you, how did you know that the man is in our army?"

Li Si said: "The villain came back from a friend's house last night and was in the Chaicaoduo Xiaojie on the way back. He happened to meet the two of them. He was a soldier who was convinced!

Puqixiong said: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in our army. Do you think that person has any characteristics?"

Everyone looked at Li Si's mouth. It was very sensitive to harassing the people during the march, let alone strong. Mob women. After all, the army is an army. Even if it is known for its cruelty, it must have strict discipline. Moreover, it is still within the country. Although I don't know what the law says, it must be a serious crime. Moreover, it will be a serious crime. And once this matter is disclosed, people are very clear about what kind of civil influence it will bring. Everyone is in a complicated mood at this time. They hope that Li Si is false and hates this bad apple. So no one can tell whether they hope that Li Si can tell me that it is because of this. So they just missed it and paid a few dollars.

Unexpectedly, Li Siqing said clearly: "No need to mention the characteristics, I know who this person is and what he is."

Puqixiong said: "Speak quickly!"

Li Si said proudly: "This person is Qin Shuanzi, and he works as a worker in the infantry camp."

Puqixiong's personal soldiers took a step forward at the same time, waiting for a while, Puqixiong clenched his fists, and two words popped out from his teeth: "Take the person!"
