Chapter 196: Promoted to General

After crossing the Jinshui Bridge, Li Zhi led his subordinates to follow the military attache queue in the south of the Jinshui Bridge, standing in line according to the grade, and waiting for the whip to be sounded. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info waited for the whip to sound, the hundred officials crossed the bridge in order, and walked to the front of His Majesty in the Imperial Palace, at this time, the civil officials were on the left, the military attache was on the right, and the two teams stood opposite each other, standing on both sides of the imperial road, waiting for the Son of Heaven to come.

After a while, the Son of Heaven entered the Imperial Palace, and the royal gate sat down. The silent whip sounded again, the officials of Honglu Temple sang loudly "enter the class", and the officials of the four grades and above in the two classes of civil and military officials walked into the hall. The civil official station is east, and the military attache station is west. Li Zhi walked into the hall, and Li Xing and other officials below the fifth rank stood outside the hall, facing the north.

Standing on the court for the first time, Li Zhi was a little nervous. He secretly glanced at the Son of Heaven on the Golden Platform, but saw that the Son of Heaven was only twenty-six or seven years old, wearing a dragon robe, medium stature, a Chinese face, thick eyebrows, and a long beard.

When the officials stood still in the hall, the officials of Honglu Temple sang loudly: "Salute!" ”

All the officials knelt down in unison and sang loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

The Son of Heaven sang: "All the ministers are flat! ”

After these rituals, the early dynasty will begin.

At the beginning of the early dynasty, before the hundred officials played, Li Zhi, who was standing in the queue of military attachés, heard the officials of Honglu Temple say loudly: "Fanjiazhuang guerrilla Li Zhi and eight military attachés below are out to listen to the order!" ”

Li Zhi hurriedly walked out of the queue and stood in the middle. Li Xing and the others also heard it, and hurriedly walked into the hall from outside the door and stood behind Li Zhi.

When the hundred officials saw that the Son of Heaven came up, they gave Li Zhi a reward, and they attached so much importance to Li Zhi that they all looked at Li Zhi with their eyes and looked at this young meritorious military attaché.

Zhu Youzhen looked at Li Zhiyi curiously, and said with a smile: "Li Qing is so young. ”

Li Zhi held up his tooth card and sang: "My Emperor Mingjian! ”

The Son of Heaven nodded, and said with a smile: "In this An0qing War, your soldiers and horses have made the most meritorious contributions, and I Sheng'er is the commander of the two products, and the commander of the dismissal officer is 'General Dragon and Tiger'." Grant his wife and mother as the second grade of the wife. Then give Eryin a son of Jinyi Wei 100 hereditary. After a pause, Zhu Youzhen said: "I am appointed as the general of the Tian0 Jinxi Road Division, stationed in Fanjiazhuang. ”

Hearing the long string of rewards from the Son of Heaven, Li Zhi kept nodding his head and rejoicing in his heart. After hearing this, Li Zhi knew that the Son of Heaven had made himself a general this time.

Although he did not serve as a deputy general, he was in charge of the soldiers and horses all the way, and his power was more than that of the deputy general. The adjutant general looks like a big official, but his power is small, and he only cares about his own battalion of soldiers and horses, and the only advantage is that there are more deputy generals. But Li Zhi's soldiers and horses relied on his own hired soldiers, and he didn't care about the difference in strength between the generals and lieutenants. Moreover, this sub-guard general is stationed in Fanjiazhuang, and he can sit in Fanjiazhuang to manage the military attache of the nearby guard.

Li Zhi knelt down and sang, "Thank you, Lord Longen." The emperor's grace is vast, and the ministers are grateful! ”

The Son of Heaven nodded and said, "Aiqing is flat!" ”

Li Zhi stood up. The officials of Honglu Temple took out a holy decree and sang it, which was a holy decree to reward Li Zhi's eight subordinates.

This time, Li Xing was promoted from the deputy Qianhu company to the third level and was promoted to the commander of the guard. The other seven subordinates were promoted by two levels, from 100 to 1,000. The eight knelt down and thanked them, then stood up and retreated to the military attache train.

Next, the hundred officials began to play. Li Zhi stood there and listened for a long time, but he didn't hear anything interesting. However, Li Zhi, a member of Yang Sichang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, understood, and asked for the transfer of the first battalion of Xuanfu to An0qing to support Xiong Wencan. It seems that this Yang Sichang is very worried about Xiong Wencan's lack of troops, even if the situation is good now, he keeps helping Xiong Wencan.

The early dynasty lasted for an hour and then ended. The Son of Heaven left Jintai and retreated, and the hundred officials left the Imperial Palace and walked outside the Imperial City. Li Zhi walked up to His Majesty Dan and spoke to the eight elated men.

Li Xing said excitedly: "Big brother! Now I can be regarded as a person who has been to the court and seen the Son of Heaven! ”

Li Zhi said with a smile: "This is even more powerful than Zhongxiucai!" ”

Li Xing laughed and said, "Big brother, it turns out that the Son of Heaven is the face of the national character!" ”

Zhong Feng smiled beside him: "The Son of Heaven is so young, his beard is so long." ”

Everyone was laughing there, and Li Zhi heard someone behind him calling him.

"This is the new Tian0 Jinxi Road Divisional General, right?"

Li Zhi turned around and looked, it turned out that it was Yang Sichang, the secretary of the military department, who was talking to him, and hurriedly saluted.

"Li Zhi has seen Lord Shangshu!"

Yang Sichang was very affectionate to Li Zhi, and came up to help Li Zhi and said, "No courtesy." After thinking about it, Yang Sichang said: "Originally, Xiong Wencan wrote a letter to me, asking me to set up a deputy general in Fanjiazhuang. I was about to play the Son of Heaven, but I didn't expect the Son of Heaven to make you a general. Speaking of which, this sub-guard general is more powerful than the deputy general! ”

This Yang Sichang's words not only explained his position, but also spoke for the arrangement of the Son of Heaven, which can be described as leaky.

Li Zhi arched his hand and said: "Li Zhi has let Da Sima worry about it, that is, he will be promoted to the general of the guard, and Li Zhi is also very happy!" ”

Yang Sichang laughed and said, "It is not easy for the general to know how to advance and retreat at a young age. After a pause, Yang Sichang said: "The general has made great contributions to An 0qing, and the situation of suppression has been greatly opened, which is really rare." Tomorrow I will have a banquet at home for Ding Kuichu, the governor of Baoding, and the generals will also come, how about it? ”

Hearing Yang Sichang's words, Li Zhi was stunned, and secretly said that Yang Sichang wanted to win himself over? Now that he has made many military exploits, he has attracted the attention of the bigwigs in the DPRK and China, and even the secretary of the military department has begun to take the initiative to get close to him?

When Li Zhi's eight subordinates saw Shangshu wanting to entertain Li Zhi, they all had proud expressions.

Li Zhi arched his hand and said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, Li Zhi will go to the Great Sima Mansion tomorrow to disturb you!" ”

Yang Sichang smiled and said, "The general is a cheerful person, so I'll see you tomorrow!" ”

After saying this, Yang Sichang happily left.

Walking out of the imperial city, Li Zhi took eight subordinates to the official office of the Ministry of War to receive the seal letter. When I got there, I met that Langzhong, and that Langzhong was hesitant, and Li Zhi couldn't help it, so he gave him fifty taels of silver. The man won the silver, smiled brightly, and said, "I've been waiting for the general for a long time!" ”

Only then did he summon someone to go to the treasury and hand over Li Zhi and more than 70 of his subordinates to Li Zhi. The clerk with the official uniform also found the flag and the five-party flag issued to Li Zhi from the treasury and handed them to Li Zhi.

The three flags read "Shandong Dusi Du Commander Envoy", "Tian0 Jin West Road Branch Guarding General" and "Dragon and Tiger General". Li Zhi took the things and left the staff division, and asked his subordinates to walk towards his yard with flags and flags. Along the way, the people of the capital looked at the flag posture and avoided both sides of the road.

When he arrived at the courtyard, Li Zhi handed out the official uniform seal letter to his subordinates, and then looked at his things.

The official uniform of the second product is the same as that of the second product, and it is the crimson official robe of the lion complement. The material of the waist card of the commander of the capital is also the same as the original waist card of the commander Tongzhi, which is of ivory texture, but the big characters on the front become "Shandong Dusi Du Commander Li Zhi".

From now on, Li Zhi will be a general who guards all the way. Li Zhi put on a new waist tag and took a picture in the clothes mirror in the room. (To be continued.) )
