Jiangyi is the former capital of Jiangguo, and after Boyi, Yuan Zhong was sealed in Jiang by Zhou, which gave rise to Jiangguo. The surname of the monarch of Jiang Guoguo is Win, which is actually one of the Dongyi and one of the Huaiyi countries. Because of this, the news that the Jiang State was destroyed by King Chu Mu (the father of King Zhuang, who killed the king of Chu Cheng) spread to the Qin State, and Qin Mugong wore plain clothes, moved to the side room, did not travel, reduced meals, and did not have fun. I'm scared of myself. ’

Qin Mugong, who was afraid of himself, could not have imagined that four hundred years later, the Qin ** team had attacked the territory of the former ally Jiangguo, and defeated the Chu army here. Qin Mugong did not think of it, but it was regarded as inevitable by the Qin army soldiers stationed here, and when the herald read the order to withdraw from Jiangyi immediately, Bai Lin, the captain of the city guard, thought that he had heard it wrong.

"General Xin ordered me to withdraw from Jiangyi?!" After killing more than 700 heads in the field, Bai Lin was awarded a knighthood and was promoted at the same time, becoming a captain of 10,000 people under his command. This is also the original captain who was unlucky, and was actually shot to death by the crossbow of the Chu army. At this time, he is also crowned and scaled, standing by the sword, and he is no longer the inconspicuous military marquis he used to be, and he is becoming more and more like a general.

"It's not General Xin, it's the order of the general. When Captain Bai left, remember to burn the baggage and evacuate in a hurry. The herald told him to hand over the letter of order to Bai Lin and withdrew.

"I thought I was going to have a big battle with the Jing people here, and then I got a ......" Bai Lindu, who was addicted to fighting, looked at the order and muttered to himself.

Qin Jun's military merit knighthood seems easy, but it is not so simple. If you behead one level, you can award the first class lord as a duke, but if you want to award the second class to become a master, you must behead two levels; If you want to be awarded a third-class hairpin, you must be beheaded of the fourth rank; If you want to be conferred a fourth-class knighthood, you must be beheaded at the eighth level; To be conferred the title of fifth-class knight, the sixteenth rank must be beheaded......

Wars are frequent, the Qin army must be beheaded in every battle, only Changping killed more than 400,000 in one battle, if each beheading level is awarded the first class, there is no such field house, so the head required to award the knighthood is progressive. It is not difficult for ordinary soldiers to be awarded the first and second class, and it is also possible to award the third class, but it is very difficult to award the fourth class, and it can only be involved.

And the decapitation must be a positive number, that is, the casualties in the army must be deducted. If you kill four people in the civil war, you behead three people not only in vain but also guilty, only if you kill three people in the civil war and you behead four people can you record the first-level merit, so it is far from being as simple as beheading thirty-one people, and the battlefield is dangerous, especially rushing to the front to grab the head, it is impossible to be safe and sound every time. Therefore, most people are awarded the second-class lord and the third-class lord hairpin, and they turn to military officials and officials, and they themselves know very well that it is difficult to behead and be promoted to knighthood, so it is better to retreat and defend it.

It is common practice in the military for non-commissioned officers to confer knighthood only of the fifth rank, and higher titles are mostly awarded to officers. Officers are not the same as non-commissioned officers, and the total number of beheadings under their command is counted regardless of individual beheadings. For example, the tun chief and the hundred generals need to behead thirty-three levels in each battle, so they can be given a knight level with 'profit theory'. Before the general beheaded 8,000 before attacking the city, and more than 2,000 in the field, he could be 'profitable', but the same should be 'profitable' before he could be judged after he had made a profit, and if he lost a loss, he would be guilty.

At this time, in addition to courage, the knighthood relied more on luck. Last time, Bai Lin had excellent luck, and when he encountered the right army of the Chu army that could not retreat and was in chaos, he beheaded a total of more than 840 levels, and gave three lords after Ying Theory, plus the whole army was beheaded in the field battle of 2,000, and the whole army was promoted to one level after Ying Theory, and the fourth lord was promoted to the thirteenth rank of the lord. Relying on the lord's will's pleasure, he asked for orders to guard Jiangyi, and he didn't want to retreat.

"Military orders cannot be violated, and it is better for generals to follow orders." Surrounded by a group of subordinates, they were also promoted to knighthood with Bai Lin, and unlike the ambitious young captains, they were more cautious and conservative.

"Who said they were going to break the order?" How dare Bai Lin disobey Meng Wu's order, he is just unwilling to say it. "The order was given to the whole army to pack up and withdraw from Jiangyi. Don't forget to burn the baggage when you go, it looks hasty. ”

"General, I'm about to bow at this time, do you ......?" someone reminded. The captain has led the army alone, and Bai Lin has also begun to have formal humeral wings, and there is also a formal shogunate, and he is a protector.

"I can't delay, I'm going to give wine. Pack your bags after the worship. Bai Lin waved his hand and went to Baijue Terrace. Worship is a major event in the army, and in the past, he had to personally give wine to the knighted soldiers, and this time was no exception.

The warm winter sun was comfortable, and the 10,000 soldiers of the whole army, except for those on duty and those who went out, all gathered under the bereavement stage to wait for the bereavement. This is not the worship of the battle of Jiangyi, that time the lord has already worshipped, this time it is the worship of the Jingren scouts, and most of them are cavalry warriors. The cavalry was also under Bai Lin's command, and the army was idle, and the envious foot soldiers also watched.

Even with the neat queue and the colorful clothes of the footmen, the audience looks like a big bazaar. The soldiers who didn't know that they were going to withdraw from Jiangyi today had smiles on their faces and talked a lot, talking mostly about how to fight again next time, and when the drums sounded on the Baijue platform, they quieted down and looked at Bai Lin with crowned scales.

"The king is wise, in order to determine the method of beheading the lord, we and other people who have made meritorious contributions to the war can be knighted, can be doctors, can be concubines, can be marquis. The people of all countries, the people of life, the children and grandchildren, only I have the honor of the people of Great Qin, and this is the gift of the king......"

The order of the worship ceremony and what the Lord would say was well known to the soldiers. Before Bai Lin's words fell, more than 10,000 soldiers began to shout 'Long live the king', and the scene was extremely lively. In their shouting, seven worshippers came to the stage in turn, some of them worshiped the first lord as a duke, some worshipped the lord again as a superior and hairpin, and the last one worshipped the fourth rank of the lord.

The guards sang the title from low to high, and the soldiers under each person shouted 'Cai', and when they shouted the last warrior knight who did not worship the knight, the whole audience was like thunder, and the 10,000 soldiers were already crazy. The first-class duke saw that the county order could not be worshipped, the second-class lord was highly respected in the township, and the third-class lord everyone competed to give gifts, and sent his son to worship him as a teacher to learn the art of battle array killing, and the fourth-class lord did not change, he could be an official, he could also learn the art of war as a general, and he could join a wealthy family, and the future was definitely very comparable to the law for more than 100 years.

Bai Lin was happy to see the soldier's madness, the soldier can behead more in this way, and he can be promoted by more beheadings, and in the cheers and cheers, he picked up the wine bowl and said loudly: "Congratulations to the strong man!" Congratulations to Lord! Congratulations to the King! ”

Shouting and drinking the wine in one breath, the whole army was a little stronger, and when the drums stopped, the worshippers stepped down, and everyone went to touch the wooden pillars of the Baijue platform, and it was rumored that the wooden pillars of the Baijue platform could be worshiped as long as they were touched, but more than 10,000 people surrounded the small Baijue platform, not everyone could touch it, and the chaotic scene was not dispersed until the military horn sounded back to the camp.

On the orders of the general, the Qin army, which had just finished its excitement, had to pack up and prepare to withdraw from Jiangyi. At the time of worship, the scouts of the Chu army, who had already sneaked within thirty miles of Jiangyi, happened to witness this crazy scene.

Why is that? Those seven people dare not be a hundred soldiers? Putting down Lu Lijing, the excited rider didn't understand what Qin Jun was doing, and he clearly saw that the object of Qin Jun's shouting 'Cai' was not the general with the crown and scale armor, but a few ordinary soldiers on the stage.

Fen will ride horses because he was born as a child. There are ten days in the sky, and there are ten people of ten ranks, which is a lower level than the bureaucrats (common people), and all he can think of is witchcraft if he has not read or read: if it were not for the fact that these seven people were not 'a hundred soldiers dare not be', why did the soldiers worship them?

"This is ......" is also a scout, and Fu Jing also saw the madness of the Qin army just now. He has read books and knows some words, and more importantly, as a child of the Gong family, he is so downtrod that he is also well-informed to live in debt, which is not comparable to a mere child. He licked his lips, which had long since dried up and cracked, and said, "With the Qin law, the Qin people can be beheaded by the lord, and those seven people are worshipping the lord, so the comrades are envious." ”

There was resentment and some sadness in Fu Jing's words, the battle of Jiangyi had passed for a long time, and it was impossible for Bai Jue to be beheaded because of the battle, and the scouts of the Chu army did not return because of the interception of the Qin army's martial knights, so it was his turn to come out to spy on the enemy. The few Qin soldiers on the high platform probably worshiped the lord because they killed their own scouts.

"Those seven must be the same as the son, born to be nobles." Fen didn't have the sentimentality of Fei Jing's death in battle, but envied the Qin people for worshipping the lord. Of course, he was smart and deliberately didn't mention this, and said that those Qin people were born nobles.

"What are the common people and what are the nobles, you and I are both Chu people, and we are comrades in the army." Just as Fen did not have the sentimentality of his comrades who died in battle, Fei Jing did not have Fen's envy of everyone in the Qin State who could worship him, after all, he himself was a son of the Gong family.

"Childe, the Qin people are packing up, and it looks like they are going to withdraw from Jiangyi." The third old scout spoke quietly, he was also born as a child, and he had been a scout for a long time.

When the army camped, the military flag was planted all over the walls of the large camp, so that it could not only strengthen its own momentum, but also cover the eyes and ears of the enemy. Now the military flags on the barracks are being pulled down one by one, and the flags of the main general are also slowly lowered.

"Good. I'll go back to the camp as soon as I get back to report. Fu Jing, whose whole body was covered with withered grass, got up in excitement, and only got such an important military situation after two days of ambush, and he couldn't wait to return to the camp.

"Childe can't, never!" Fu Jing's actions scared the old scout half to death, and he hurriedly pulled Fei Jing down. "The Qin people are all horses, tall and strong, by no means comparable to our mounts, at this time, the return to the camp must be intercepted by the Qin people's martial knights......"

"So what?" Although Fu Jing was not happy, she also knew that it was not a fluke that the old scout had survived until now, so she had to listen to him patiently.

"Wait until it gets dark. After dark, it was difficult to distinguish the trail of the horseman, that is, they were chased by the warrior knights, and their crossbows were not far away, and they stopped chasing after shooting the arrows. The old scout replied that that was why he had survived so far.

"No, the Qin people withdrew from Jiangyi, maybe it was a change of defense at the junction, and our army could take the opportunity to take this town." After waiting for a long time, seeing that the Qin army brigade was leaving Jiangyi, the meritorious concubine Jing couldn't sit still. "You wait and follow me back to the camp as soon as possible, otherwise military law will deal with it."
