Chapter 65: Why not?

Since the match between the third and fourth places has not yet been played, if Tan Weiying's women's team defeats the Yicheng team, it is very likely that there will be an embarrassing situation where the directors of the two experimental small armies are women. The Fierce Blood Army and the Fire Qi Army already had quite a complex background, and they had to endure all kinds of pressure of speech, and now, due to the outcome of the match that no one expected, this pressure may be the icing on the cake.

After all, the talented idea of letting the person with the top rank take the lead in the leadership of the two armies was not something that Ye Tao and Tan Weixin came up with on their own.

If Dai Yun's actions after leaving the Yi Zhan Building were known by Ye Tao or Tan Weixin, they would probably feel that this Dai Yun's actions were really modern. Dai Yun first went to Fenglin Lane to buy a bunch of messy little things, and even ordered a dresser and a screen in IKEA, and then ran back to the courtyard where she came to Danyang to live temporarily, and locked herself in the room to sleep. It was not until the afternoon of the next day that she opened the door and walked out of the yard under the double torment of excessive energy and boredom.

The old family of Yunhai Villa, who is also the head of Dai Yun who follows Dai Yun to the north and south to cook various things, seems to have expected his young lady's strange way to relieve her emotions. Anyway, the amount of money in Yunhai Villa has become a problem, and I can't figure out how to diversify my investment, just escorting the military horse money from Danyang back to the villa every year is a very serious problem, and it is not a problem for Miss to spend more money at all. On the contrary, it was these things caused by the young lady in Danyang that gave the old family member Dai Shizong a headache.

"Miss, in the morning, the Ye family sent someone to invite you to the embroidery princess for lunch, saying that there are still many things I want to discuss with you. I replied that you were tired from the previous game and were resting. If the spirit is okay, the afternoon will pass. Miss, do you want to go to this banquet or not? Dai Yun drank the fragrant porridge that had been boiled from the morning to the present in a very gentle manner, Dai Shizong reported.

Dai Yun shrugged his shoulders, such an action is not elegant for a girl, but on her, it looks very chic. She said: "The relationship between Ye Tao and the Dongping royal family is really good. It's obviously a party after the awards, but it can also be put in the embroidered princess's house. ”

Dai Shizong smiled: "This is not strange. Princess Embroidery's Mansion is now the Embroidery Garden. The original yard has been handed back. The embroidery garden was designed and supervised by Ye Tao, and the embroidery princess was lively and hospitable. I'm afraid it's the embroidery princess who took this matter by herself. In the case of the embroidery garden, it is more than exquisite and beautiful, but the magnificent atmosphere is insufficient, and it is not a suitable place to hold banquets. Ye Tao probably can't resist Her Royal Highness the embroidered princess. ”

Thinking back to the performance of Tan Weiying and her team in the chess battle, Dai Yun also smiled a little, this young embroidery princess is really quite cute. "It's still early. If there really was a luncheon, it would be embarrassing to go on the tail of the luncheon now. I'll sit down, change my clothes, and set off. ”

Wearing a lilac-colored women's riding costume, Dai Yun came to the embroidery garden. As Dai Shizong said, the Embroidery Garden is not a suitable place for many people to feast and drink together. But set up a long table in the courtyard. Set up a barbecue grill in the corner, and a group of people choose to eat according to their own temperament, which can be regarded as a unique flavor. When Dai Yun arrived, it happened that Chi Yun, Ye Tao, Chi Lei, Chi Li, Zeng Zining, Li Mian and others were all in a large room with maps to study chess battles there. The atmosphere was quite enthusiastic. And what they are studying is the cavalry tactics of Dai Yun in the first few games from the beginning of the game to the present. Dai Yun's arrival naturally made everyone's interest even higher, and Chi Yun directly asked Dai Yun if he had been in the army.

Dai Yun replied with a smile: "Look at my age, and I am a girl, is it possible that I have spent in the army?" I want to be a female general, but people don't want me. ”

"Now I have a chance." Tan Weiying interjected on the side, "I just happened to be looking for you to talk about this matter." He said. Tan Weiying looked at Ye Tao and asked Ye Tao to explain.

Among these people here, only Dai Yun, who was belated, and Qiu Haohui, the actual coach of the Yicheng United, did not know that the commanders of the two experimental armies were going to be selected from the people who had the best places in the grand strategy competition, and it was precisely to wait for Dai Yun to come and tell these two about this matter.

"Yes, the lord of the kingdom has approved the establishment of two small armies for those who are interested in joining the army to experience military life. Preferably, it is possible to discover some young generals with military talents. After all, the generals in the army either came from the military family of the past dynasties. Either simply pull from the soldiers. Whether it's from top down or bottom up, there's a fault in between. Still exists. If you are really talented and are selected by the Ministry of War or the forbidden army, you will naturally have a future. The most unfortunate thing is to give people who are interested in joining the army but can't do so for various reasons a chance to experience the army. …… The two armies, one called the Fire Qi Army and the other called the Fierce Blood Army, each had some preconceived characteristics, and this first commander was appointed by His Royal Highness the Lord of the Nation, and the person who won the ranking in this open tournament was to serve as the leader. Ye Tao explained simply.

Judging from the results of the competition, although Chi Yun led the forbidden army to win the championship, in fact, except for Chi Yun and other people who are inevitably unable to serve as the commanders of the two armies for various reasons, there is not much room for choice. Dai Yun, Chi Li and Qiu Haohui are the first choice, if any of these three people can't take office, then count down the ranking to find someone. But if that were the case, the authority of the commanders of the two armies and the seriousness of the matter would be greatly diminished.

After listening to Ye Tao's general introduction, Dai Yun thought about it, and then looked at Chi Li, who was sitting on the side, holding a cup of hot tea. In Dai Yun's opinion, it would be no problem to find himself, if there was another commander, from the perspective of all these team leaders, in terms of ability, there was no doubt that it was Chi Li. And Qiu Haohui, the rich son of Yicheng, has an obvious gap in ability.

Chi Liliang Dai Yun looked at what she was expressing, and she said: "Although it is indeed very fun to play chess battles, no matter how happy I am, I have to help the family take care of things first." I will not fight with the two of them for the position of commander or overseer. Besides, there is no reason for a widow like me to go out and do such a thing, no matter what. ”

Chi Lidi's face was full of amazement. Apparently. It was a lot of fun for her, but she had to give up because she had to worry about the pressure of all sides.

Qiu Haohui was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and he couldn't speak for a while. The Qiu family is a large merchant between first-class and second-rate in Yicheng, and has shifted its main business direction from medicinal materials to spices more than ten years ago. In particular, several mixed plant essential oils developed by the Qiu family have become quite popular among the upper class of Dongping and other countries. Tan Weixin has always had the habit of buying several essential oils and doing spa at ordinary times. Qiu Haohui ran across the boat with his family, encountered pirates and was rescued by the sailor. From now on. He always wanted to join the army. But it is one thing for a rich child to want to join the army, and it is another thing to get ahead in Dongping, a system that has quite strict management and control over the army. His parents were worried that he would not be able to endure hardships in the army, and he himself was never sure whether he would be able to become a general in his lifetime. When marching chess appeared, when he continued to study in order to satisfy his imaginary command of the army, and gradually showed his talent for tactical and strategic conception in chess battles, he felt that maybe he should really go to the army. But by this time, he was already twenty-six years old, and it was too late. And now, all at once, you can command an army, if not one, directly into the battlefield. To be able to obtain a military position recognized by the imperial court, to be able to become a general after the opportunity, at least, is to be able to make a dream come true.

Dai Yundi's expression was very indifferent. She looked at the excited Qiu Haohui disapprovingly, and said, "Okay, why not?" However, there is one thing I want to say beforehand. Since non-Dongping people don't have the qualifications to serve as commanders or overseers, I should only have half of them. I am the young master of Yunhai Villa, and my household registration is in Dongping, that's right, but. I am a native of Daijiadi, Yunzhou. I don't know if you know about this. ”

Yunzhou Dai family? Chi Yun was shocked, and at this moment, why Dai Yun was so good at cavalry tactics can be completely explained.

Among the people present, Ye Tao and Qiu Haohui didn't know much about the Dai family in Yunzhou. At this time, Li Mian leaned next to Ye Tao's ear and talked a little about the Dai family in Yunzhou.

Except for Dongping. Chunnan. Xiling, Northern Liao outside the four countries. The princes who were divided during the original unification period can still have their own land and people, only Yunzhou. Yunzhou is located at the northern end of Dongping, just at the junction of Dongping, Xiling and Northern Liao. To the north of Yunzhou, there are grasslands and deserts where only nomads and barbarians exist. Speaking of being in the land of four wars, Yunzhou rarely suffered from military disasters, probably because although Xiling, Beiliao and Dongping both wanted to eat this rich and vast land rich in horses, they also needed a buffer zone between several countries. And the Yunzhou Dai family, almost every generation of family heads are generals who are proficient in military strategy, and in each generation, there will be several strategists with their own strengths, capable officials and other characters, and the likes of losers are very, very rare. The Dai family's strict and fruitful training system for their own children has always been valued by clans and large families in various countries, although even if they want to learn, they don't know how to learn.

If it is a child of the Dai family, although it is a girl, it must be a member of the complex and sophisticated system of the Dai family. If the children of the Dai family can't lead soldiers, don't understand military affairs, and don't understand government affairs, that's an incredible thing.

Although the Dai family is outside the four major countries of the current earth, there is still a difference in their relationship. Because Tan Xiaopei's grandfather Tan Shuji had an army of nearly 300,000 when Yunzhou was invaded by the barbarians, almost half of all the armies in Dongping at that time, they separately pressed the border between Xiling and Northern Liao, so that the two countries did not dare to draw troops to invade Yunzhou before the Dai family repelled the barbarians and stabilized the situation, so as to finally maintain the ** of the Dai family and Yunzhou. Afterwards, Tan Shuji didn't even offer any conditions or requirements to the Dai family, maybe in the eyes of other countries, Dongping's thankless move is a bit silly, but the major families in Yunzhou headed by the Dai family, as well as the people of Yunzhou, have been much closer to Dongping's feelings since then. In the past few decades, Yunzhou has been selling a considerable number of military horses to the Dongping military, and even made Yunhai Villa in the northern Xinjiang of Dongping, as a retreat for the Dai family in case of change.

For Ye Tao, those two armies were not paid for by him. On the contrary, it is the children of these families who have entered the army for various reasons to contribute money and shares, even if it is the Huoqi Army, the land is also the dividends that the inner government gets from the Yi Zhan Building, if these two armies are mainly an echelon training institution for young officers outside the system, it doesn't matter who will be the commander (overseer) at all, and even if those people in Chunnan Kingdom are willing to join, it is a good thing. For the time being, it is not his turn to consider the issue of military secrecy.

Dai Yun's identity is indeed a problem. Although it seems that Dai Yun himself is not averse to serving in this kind of half-playful and half-serious army, it is a question whether Dongping can accept her sensitive identity. Regardless of whether such an army is serious or playful, after all, it will involve sensitive situations in terms of military discipline, equipment, organizational form, tactics and personnel.

What Dai Yun didn't expect was that it was Ye Tao who was the first to respond. I only heard Ye Tao say: "Why not? Since the household registration is a citizen of Dongping. Legally, that's fine. Elsewhere, do we need to care? Not to mention that whether it is the Fire Qi Army or the Fierce Blood Army, it is not really an army that will be pulled onto the battlefield to fight, even if it is, so what? Loyalty and faith. It's all something deep in a person's heart, household registration and identity, which can't be constrained by anything. ”

Ye Tao didn't have a deep understanding of what the Dai family in Yunzhou meant to Dongping for a while. But his slightly rash words were very comfortable to listen to in everyone's ears. Chi Yun nodded and said, "Miss Dai." If you don't have an objection and are willing to be a commander or overseer, that's perfectly fine. Chi Yun thought about the order of these recent events after Ye Tao spoke, and understood that in fact, the national lord Tan Xiaopei was by no means ignorant of Dai Yun's identity, nor was he unprepared for Dai Yun's possibility of becoming such a landlord of the army. When Tan Xiaopei made this decision, it was actually possible to become a commander or an overseer. There are only a few candidates in total, and even if other people don't know the Dai family's Yunhai Villa in Dongping to hide their identities, Tan Xiaopei and Tan Weixin, etc., they must know. It's just that these things are not easy to talk about with great fanfare. After all, although the Dai family in Yunzhou has always been close to Dongping, at least it is still the best country now.

"Who said it was okay?" Dai Yun smiled and asked, "What's the matter with this Overseer or Commander?" Does this titular position have any real power? What were these two armies built to do? What can I do in it? …… Well. Anyway, people who want to enter the army donate money together as funds, right? I understand this. No problem at all. ”

After explaining it to Dai Yun, it was beyond everyone's expectations. Dai Yun, who was obviously very familiar with the regular army, chose the Fierce Blood Army and became the first overseer of the Fierce Blood Army. Correspondingly, Qiu Haohui became the commander of the Fire Qi Army.

There is also a difference between the two in terms of authority, compared to Dai Yun, who is familiar with military strategy, Qiu Haohui is completely a rookie to the actual army command, Dai Yun has a great say in the recruitment, organizational construction, etc., while Qiu Haohui first needs to follow the local officers sent by the forbidden army to learn and be familiar with it for a period of time.

After clarifying his authority, Dai Yun suddenly found that there were so many things he could do. In the afternoon of the same day, in the embroidery garden, she said that she would select the first batch of officers from among the war chess enthusiasts who were interested in joining the fierce blood army, and immediately summoned Dai Shizong, who was waiting in the gatehouse, and asked Dai Shizong to order him to go down and immediately transfer 5,000 war horses with more suitable tongues. Dai Shizong was stunned at first, but when he understood why, his eyes flashed with a strange look, and he immediately ordered to go. And Dai Yun's big donation really shocked everyone. Naturally, it is inevitable that everyone has money and power to contribute. Qiu Haohui frankly said that it was impossible for his family to have such financial resources to compare with it, and he did not want to use his family's money to strengthen his own momentum, so he donated 50,000 taels of silver that he had saved as military funds, and frankly admitted that this was the tuition fee for him to enter the army to learn something, and this attitude also aroused everyone's favor. If he slaps his swollen face and becomes fat, everyone will have to worry about whether such a vain person is suitable to become the commander of the Fire Qi Army.

No one could have imagined that the announcement of the creation of two experimental armies would cause such a huge repercussion. Although the March Chess Open has just ended, the children of all parties who are very interested in military affairs, and even tried to enter the army many times but were unable to enter, are a little crazy. Although it has been explained that in the criteria for selecting students to enter these two armies as midshipmen and non-commissioned officers, the amount of money contributed to the construction of the army is not among them, but the children of all parties have donated generously. Since there was no designated agency to deal with these donations when the news came out, the guys who didn't dare to find the princess's mansion tried their best to make an appointment to meet with Ye Tao, and then they could discuss by the way whether it was possible for them to enter the Fire Qi Army or the Fierce Blood Army, and what kind of position they could hold in the army. Ye Tao was also a little confused, so he had to ask the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs to send officials to supervise, and let Suo Zheng come forward to receive visitors from all sides, register the money received, and give an objective, fair, and perhaps slightly exaggerated assessment of the funder's performance in the competition.
