Chapter 64: Taking office
Hearing that Nangong Xiongba was willing to shake hands with Xia Yuanxiao and make peace, Ling Xia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he wasted so many tongues, just to resolve the contradiction between the two military giants, only by resolving the mustard between the two of them, Ling Xia, a thousand-commander, could sit firmly.
Ling Xia has already calculated, after resolving the contradiction between Xia Yuanxiao and Nangong Xiongba, it is just the day of the competition to recruit relatives, and everyone will be concerned about recruiting relatives at this juncture, at this juncture, no one notices Peng Lie's belonging, he will temporarily delay it, and strive to defeat the opponent.
To be honest, although Ling Xia has not been in contact with Xia Ning'er for a long time, he has a good impression of Xia Ning'er in his heart, he doesn't want others to snatch Xia Ning'er away, since he is robbing his daughter-in-law, he can only snatch it.
After defeating the opponent and successfully being elected as a concubine, Ling Xia handed over Peng Lie to Xia Ning'er as a concubine, Xia Ning'er was a direct victim of the kidnapping case, and if she did not pursue Peng Lie's crimes, it would be equivalent to pardoning Peng Lie.
As long as Xia Ning'er pardoned Peng Lie, whether it was the Ministry of War or the Praetorian Guard, he would not pester Peng Lie, and after bleaching Peng Lie's identity, he would find another opportunity to return Peng Lie to the Military Flag Society, so that Ling Xia would be equivalent to planting eyes and ears in the Military Flag Society.
Although the Military Flag Society has nothing to do with Ling Xia at the moment, I don't know why? Ling Xia always had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, he always felt that he was going to be involved with the Military Banner Society, this feeling had appeared once before, that was when he was playing with Mr. Dongfang.
At the beginning, he had a brief fight with Mr. Dongfang a few times, but in the end there was no winner or loser, Ling Xia originally wanted to see that Mr. Dongfang, but Mr. Dongfang set fire to the base camp of the Battle Guards and disappeared without a trace.
This time, that wonderful feeling appeared again, for the sake of prevention, Ling Xia decided to send someone into the Military Flag Club first, no one is more suitable for this role than Peng Lie, if it is used well, Peng Lie will become a killer against the Military Flag Club.
Now that Nangong Xiongba has expressed his willingness to make peace with the military department, Ling Xia struck while the iron was hot and said: "Since the Metropolitan Governor has made a decision, then the general can be a peacemaker for the time being?" Later, I will go to the military department and convey the meaning of the metropolitan governor to Xia Shangshu. ”
Nodding slightly, Nangong Xiongba showed a hint of appreciation to Ling Xia: "I can feel it, you seem to trust me, otherwise you wouldn't have said that to me, you can tell me without concealment, it's really commendable."
In fact, I was very curious about you before, I want to know what kind of person you are, in the face of the interception of the battle guards, the search of the Praetorian Guards, and the pursuit of mysterious forces, you can quietly send Peng Lie to the imperial capital, this ability is definitely not trivial.
Maybe you don't know it yourself, because of the infighting between the military department and the Praetorian Guard, the civil and military officials of the imperial capital are paying attention to you, and they want to know who will catch you first? But everyone didn't expect that the three forces combined couldn't stop you.
It seems that my promotion to you this time is an unexpected surprise, you were appointed by the Ministry as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and now you are my person, and now it is the time for the princess to compete to recruit relatives, and there is a great shortage of manpower around the forbidden city at this time.
In this way, you will go to the military department to run an errand later, and then report to the Dongcheng Legion, I remember that the 4,000-person team of the "Jiang Hailiu" 10,000-person team under the command of the Dongxing Division does not have a commander, so you can go there to report, as for the 100-person team you brought, you can continue to incorporate it. ”
Nangong Xiongba did not mention Peng Lie, and Ling Xia also avoided this topic with understanding, and after asking a few details, Nangong Xiongba handed Ling Xia and wrote an "appointment order", and then signaled that Ling Xia could leave, and after Ling Xia left, Nangong Xiongba showed a contemplative expression.
Ling Xia first went to the military department, and after seeing Xia Yuanxiao, he told Nangong Xiongba about agreeing to shake hands and make peace, Xia Yuanxiao didn't expect Ling Xia to complete the task, he just wanted Ling Xia to talk about Nangong Xiongba's attitude.
But unexpectedly, Ling Xia instead reconciled the military department and the Praetorian Guard. Not only that, Ling Xia was also promoted to a thousand commanders by Nangong Xiongba, and was incorporated into the Praetorian Guard, looking at Ling Xia in front of him, who was neither humble nor arrogant, thinking back to Ling Xia's performance when he first saw him, Xia Yuanxiao nodded secretly.
Anyway, Ling Xia completed the task after all, although he was now absorbed by Nangong Xiongba's Praetorian Guard, Xia Yuanxiao still rewarded Ling Xia with ten gold coins, and gave him a few words of encouragement, Xia Yuanxiao waved his hand to signal Ling Xia to leave.
"The dignified military department Shangshu is so stingy, and he only rewarded ten gold coins, which is too picky." Casually flipped the gold coin, Ling Xia complained casually, and after walking out of the gate of the military headquarters, he asked someone about the direction of the Dongcheng Legion, and then walked in the direction of the forbidden city.
The whole forbidden city is a rectangular building, two thousand meters long from north to south, 1,800 meters wide from east to west, the city wall is about 10 meters high, outside the wall is a circular moat, there is a circle of scenic trees planted by the river, the forbidden city covers an area of nearly 10 million square meters, there are one hundred and nine palaces in it, and 9,999 rooms of all kinds are inside.
As the name suggests, the Dongcheng Legion is responsible for the security of the eastern side of the forbidden city, because it wants to protect the safety of the eastern city of the forbidden city, so the camp of the Praetorian Guard is located near the east wall of the forbidden city, only 10,000 meters away from the moat on the east side of the forbidden city.
The legion has three integrated divisions under the command of Dongri, Dongyue, and Dongxing, and Ling Xia's thousand-man team is located in the Dongxing Division's Jianghailiu 10,000-person team, because the number of the 10,000-person team is named after the commander of Wanfu, so Ling Xia wants to report to Wanfu Changjiang Hailiu.
After coming to the Dongcheng Legion, Ling Xia asked the soldiers at the gate about the camp of the Dongxing Division, and found Wanfu Yangtze River Hailiu from the school training factory, Jiang Hailiu was a shriveled middle-aged man, with a sallow face, pale lips, and a sickly look.
After verifying the token and the promotion order of the officials, and opening the appointment order of Nangong Xiongba, Jiang Hailiu glanced at Ling Xia meaningfully: "It is actually the appointment order written by the Metropolitan Governor's own soldiers, it seems that you are very valued by the Metropolitan Governor, otherwise he would not allow you to incorporate the accompanying hundred people." ”
After saying this, Jiang Hailiu first led Ling Xia to report to the division commander, and after meeting the division commander, Jiang Hailiu led Ling Xia back to the school training factory, and recruited nine men with different fat and thin weights, he first introduced the identity of the other party, and then introduced Ling Xia to everyone.
Those nine people are nine commanders, who will belong to Ling Xia's colleagues and comrades-in-arms in the future, everyone exchanged a few words of greeting, and the other nine people returned to their respective school training areas to continue training, and at this time, Jiang Hailiu led Ling Xia to the middle area of the school training factory.
Calling out to the soldiers who were training, Jiang Hailiu told Ling Xia that this is the 4,000-man team, counting the men and all kinds of miscellaneous soldiers, the 4,000-person team has a total of 1,073 people, and from now on, these people will be Ling Xia's soldiers.
