Ding Yi and Zhang Xiaowu were stunned, they were promoted from Du Zuo to captain, which was unheard of, Ding Yi said in a trembling voice: "The general-this-is not in line with the military system, right?" "Even the emperor's son needs to be promoted step by step after joining the army, how can there be a reason to be promoted to three levels to be a captain, even if it is a military captain, it is also a captain. It was Captain Chen Tai who had to salute when he saw Zhang Xiaowu in the future, and the old boss Captain Wang Jian would be his colleague in the future.

Ding Yi thought that he could reward Zhang Xiaowu as a captain, or be promoted two levels in a row to be a school assistant, but he was promoted three levels in a row - but he was at a loss. He turned around and looked at Zhang Xiaowu, but when he saw Zhang Xiaowu in a daze, he couldn't help but smile in his heart, this kid estimated that he didn't know how old the captain was.

Zhang Xiaowu thought that he was equivalent to being directly promoted from the deputy company commander to the battalion commander, this step is a bit big, as the saying goes, it is easy to pull the egg when the step is big, and when Shao Zifu, Feng Bin, Chen Tai and others saw him, they had to bow and said: "Good captain." Thinking about the former chief's respectful appearance in the face of himself, Zhang Xiaowu couldn't help but have a toothache, which was too ridiculous.

Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly said: "General, you can't take it from your humble level." ”

Shi Jing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, it seems that this young general is not a reckless person, nor is he a greedy person, but if a civilian is a soldier, it is extremely difficult to have such a heart, he has the heart to teach, and said: "Tell me, why can't you?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "Humble luck, with great force to drive the enemy, but the officers and commanders will kill countless enemies, but I have not been so rewarded, if you are so rewarded, it will cause the army to speculate unfairly." With a humble future, the people in the army are not angry, and the humble is the sinner of Tucheng and the enemy of the 27th Regiment. ”

When Shi Jing listened to Zhang Xiaowu's words, he frequently nodded with other deputy generals, army members and reporters, and he admired this young general even more in his heart, and even raised the idea of keeping this young general by his side to cultivate. Ding Yi is such a smart person, seeing the faces of several people, he said that he had suffered it, this shameless General Shi wanted to snatch talents from his side, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What can't you?" The general said you can, you can! You kid, the general is promoting you, I don't know what to do, I don't know how important it is, I have to clean you up. By the way, now go back to practice archery, so as not to be embarrassed, my three-eyed person, isn't it a shame to shoot arrows well? Get out! ”

Zhang Xiaowu was scolded, bowed and left.

Shi Jing saw that the two of them answered one by one, and only reacted after Zhang Xiaowu left, and said, "Okay, you are three-eyed, block my mouth, right?" ”

Ding Yi smiled evilly: "Don't dare, don't dare, since the general's reward has also been sealed, the subordinate will retire." ”

Shi Jing scolded, and when Ding Yi left, he turned around and smiled, and Wang Shen couldn't help but laugh and said: "This Ding Sanyan has always been very protective of calves." Shi Jing said: "Tomorrow this matter will be announced to Yucheng, I want all the soldiers to see, protect the city for meritorious service, reward it, everyone protect the city, everyone has a reward." ”

"Whoa." The people joined the army.

Zhang Xiaowu stood at the gate of the General's Mansion waiting for Ding Yi, and several of Ding Yi's personal soldiers immediately stepped forward to congratulate him, and said with a smile: "Little general, how can the general be rewarded?" Zhang Xiaowu said in embarrassment: "This ...... This one...... Lieutenant of the Military Academy. ”

"What? Lieutenant? A few pro-soldiers opened their mouths wide, naturally hard to believe.

Zhang Xiaowu blushed and said, "I refused." ”

"You're still—refuse?" A few pro-soldiers were even more surprised, and said that this kid can really brag, and he is still a captain, and he still refuses? Why don't you go to heaven? At this time, I saw Ding Yi walking out, and when Ding Yi saw Zhang Xiaowu, he squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Captain Zhang, don't be arrogant, do a good job as a soldier." The soldiers couldn't help but ask: "Lord Junhou, has this young general really become a military captain?" Seeing Ding Yi nodding, the soldiers were busy respecting Zhang Xiaowu.

Back in the Xicheng Defense Area, Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly stepped forward to return the Divine Arm Bow to Ding Yi, Ding Yi waved his hand and said, "You can use it, in the entire Tucheng, only you can use this bow." If it weren't for the fact that this divine arm bow was a gift from the emperor and could not be given away easily, I would rather give the sword to the hero. If the war is over, I will ask a craftsman to make a five-stone bow and give it to you, and now this bow can only be lent to you. ”

Zhang Xiaowu did not refuse this divine arm bow, and said: "Thank you to the army, you will live up to expectations." ”

Ding Yi said again: "In the future, if you want to change your self-title, you should be a subordinate official, not a humble one, remember, from now on, you will be the captain of the Yi Zi Battalion, responsible for military discipline and military regulations in the army, but now you have no subordinates in the army." ”

Zhang Xiaowu still wondered: "The military waiter, the humble is just a pawn who has not been in the army for a long time, the so-called military captain, how can he be virtuous?" The humble recommends a person, the lowly Captain Chen Tai, he ......"

Ding Yi interrupted: "The general's decision, how can I change it, you can clean up after you return to the camp, and come to the camp tomorrow to report." ”

Zhang Xiaowu could only take the order and return, and after he went back to tell Chen Tai about it, Chen Tai reprimanded: "Stinky boy, what are you doing, if it weren't for this disaster, you wouldn't be able to be a captain in your life." If you refuse, you will be a fool's hat. He also told Zhang Xiaowu not to tell anyone else about this matter for the time being, Zhang Xiaowu didn't know how to tell Shao Zifu and others, so he nodded and agreed, and when he returned to the barracks to rest, everyone was already asleep, but Shao Zifu was still waiting.

The two looked at each other and smiled, didn't say anything, and rested early.

The next day, Zhang Xiaowu was woken up by others, and heard that General Shi Jing would pay tribute to the thirty-six Han soldiers who had been cut dry and dug out their hearts after the morning meal. Shao Zifu asked him to sleep for a while, and Zhang Xiaowu was still sleepy when he learned about this, so he went to the market in the city with other sergeants to bury his comrades-in-arms.

The memorial ceremony was not complicated, but the horse leather shroud song sung by Shi Jing made Zhang Xiaowu a little shocked. The saint Han is still martial, and the sergeant is proud of dying in battle, but he doesn't know how many parents, brothers and sisters in his hometown shed tears, and how many wives are eager to see through it. How much success is laid on the bones of ants, maybe for these soldiers, they are just a number in the military book, but for their families, they are everything.

"Ahh

Zhang Xiaowu stood behind Ding Yi, and when he heard Ding Yi's long call, his heart was in a trance. For this world, he may not have much sense of identity before, and even his own life is a little trance, and he doesn't care at all. But when I saw the thirty-six corpses today, I couldn't stop grieving in my heart for no reason, as if the thirty-six corpses were my own arms and bodies.

After the memorial was over, Ding Yi and the other soldiers followed the general Shi Jing to discuss the military, and Luo Zhen, the captain of the left near, led the others to return to their respective defense areas, and the other five captains naturally learned that Zhang Xiaowu was promoted to the rank of lieutenant last night, and looked at him with interest, seeing that Zhang Xiaowu was at a loss.

Fortunately, Wang Jian, the leading captain of the fourth formation, was his old boss, and he stepped forward to punch him with a smile, and said: "In the future, we will all be colleagues, take care of it more, take care of it more." ”

Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly said: "My lord will always be my official." ”

Wang Jian was extremely comfortable by this sycophant, laughed, held his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the camp and celebrate for you." ”

Although everyone slept last night, today's fact that Zhang Xiaowu was promoted to the rank of lieutenant detonated the topic of the officers and men in the army, and they all felt lucky for this soldier. Under the deliberate agitation of the gentry who joined the army, Zhang Xiaowu shot back millions of dogs with three arrows, and the fact that Wuhuan Xiaowang Wuli was almost killed caused a great morale boost to the Tucheng army and people, and there were actually children who made up a ballad: "In the fifth month of the Han Dynasty, the thieves besieged the city, the young general Zhang, the god three arrows, the Wuhuan king, scared off the horse, the canopy car, the fire camp, and the millions of dogs all retreated." Soon the nursery rhyme spread all over the full name, and Zhang Xiaowu's nickname of the arrow Zhang flowed out, and even the brothers of the fourth formation sang this nursery rhyme and returned to the camp to congratulate Zhang Xiaowu.

Although the fourth team has a little criticism in private, most people think that Zhang Xiaowu feels honored and honored to be promoted to the third level, and Wang Jian also came to congratulate him in person after inspecting the city wall, after all, this kid is from his own subordinates, and he will be his Wang Jian's little follower in the future. After all, Zhang Xiaowu was a person who had been in the government unit in his previous life, and he knew that although he was also a captain, he needed the support of others more, and if he had an old boss with him in the future, he would definitely not be troubled.

After getting Wang Jian's support, the generals of the fourth team came to congratulate, and even Wang Jian had to allocate a few of his subordinates to be pawns, Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly refused to say that he should obey the army, and keep a low profile, so as not to be jealous.

Wang Jian nodded approvingly: "Your kid is much more sober than my old Wang, and he will definitely be extraordinary in the future." ”
