After returning from Juyepo, the people who went to camp first found that as long as Yuan Xi appeared, Lu Yi would respectfully follow behind. It can be seen that the rumor - the general actually lost to a hairy boy - has come true, and everyone is surprised that Koji Yi really put down the shelf to Yuan Xi as a personal soldier, and began to speculate about Yuan Xi's background. But only a few people know Yuan Xi's true identity.

"General, since you have conceded defeat, why don't you promote my ranks' training method?"

In private, Yuan Xi still called Liyi a general and maintained due respect. But he still didn't understand why the fourteen general principles of Fayol, which he had managed to recall, were not enough to scare Koji, and this person still went his own way.

Koji Yi snorted and said, "You have that set...... Gotta wait, you have to take your time. ”

This is the case every reply. Ko Yi also learned to be obedient, and dropped the bookbag, which couldn't argue with Yuan Xi, so he changed it to a procrastination trick. As long as Yuan Xi mentioned where reform was needed and where change was needed, he would laugh and forget it.

This made Yuan Xi quite helpless. Since returning to the barracks, Ko Yi specially summoned all the generals and announced that Yuan Xi would be appointed as the military commander, but he did not explain any details, resulting in Yuan Xi becoming an empty leader, with a title, but nothing to do. And Lu Yi's secret military training in private also excluded Yuan Xi, making it mysterious.

Fortunately, Yuan Xi was also used to sitting on the cold bench in his previous life, he recalled that after graduating from school, he entered the central ministries and commissions, and worked in the most popular department in the entire civil service system for seven years. After the report is submitted, it will be repeatedly revised by the leadership and changed beyond recognition. So it sounds good, a high-level person is a national cadre, but in fact he is doing a lot of repetitive work. Many colleagues who came in together, some of them had a good relationship with the leader, and their ranks were promoted quickly, but because he was not sociable by nature, he often pushed his boss hard, making him disgraced, and his rank was also promoted, but the work he did was all substitute work.

He was busy in his previous life, but since he was leisurely in this life, Yuan Xi was also happy. The treatment of the military Sima is very different from before, not only one person and one camp, but also two sergeants for him to deploy, and he is constantly wandering and inspecting on weekdays. He specially transferred Xu Dayan and Smiling Tiger to his side to act as guards, and several people chatted together, and life was easy.

Until one day, Yuan Shang came back from Youzhou and came to visit when he passed by the barracks.

Still received in the main tent of Ko Yi, this time Yuan Shang's face looked even more radiant. I haven't seen him for many days, the original little white face looks a little darker, and the person has lost some weight, but it is full of smiling faces, which should be quite rewarding for this trip.

Seeing Yuan Xi enter the camp tent, Yuan Shang hurriedly got up to greet him and said, "Second brother, I came to see you this time, I heard that you have been promoted to military commander?" ”

In ancient times, this was not good, and the authority was not clear. Yuan Xi mentioned it in the previous fourteen general principles. Obviously, he was named a general before, no matter what, he is a general and can lead the troops alone. Unexpectedly, when he came to Liyi, he was named a military Sima again, but he was demoted by one rank. In Yuan Shang's mouth, it actually became "Gao Sheng", which is enough to see the confusion.

"It's okay...... How's it going over there? ”

He just asked casually, and Yuan Shang's eyes immediately lit up, and he said endlessly: "I met with Shan Yu of Wuhuan a few days ago, and the two sides talked about wine and ......."

"Wait......" Yuan Xi said, "Didn't you go to contact Liu Yu's old department?" ”

Yuan Shang said: "Second brother, you don't understand this. Liu Yu was in charge of Youzhou before, advocating kindness to the Hu people, and under his rule, both Xianbei and Wuhuan lived well. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zhan provoked a killing for his military exploits. first drove away the herdsmen for no reason, and then pretended to be a thief to fight the grass valley, which made the Wuhuan people complain, and finally reversed. ”

"Is it the other way around?"

Yuan Shang nodded and said, "It's the opposite." That was a few years ago. What Gongsun Chan wanted was for these Hu people to make a rebellion, so he could ask for an edict to fight the rebellion, and he would suppress it, and gradually he would accumulate military merits and be promoted to Zhonglang General. It wasn't until the Yellow Turban Thieves appeared that these Wuhuan tribes escaped. Therefore, the Hu people in Youzhou all gritted their teeth at Gongsun Zhan. This time, I secretly infiltrated Youzhou and connected with Shan Yu of Wuhuan, and they said that they would send troops to fight together. The Wuhuan cavalry has always been skilled in archery and bravery, and with this new force to copy his back road, our chances of victory have greatly increased. ”

Koji Yi listened while chewing the meat in the clay bowl, not moved at all.

Yuan Xi said: "Oh, then you have a lot of credit this time......

Yuan Shang laughed, the smug expression on his face could no longer be hidden, and said: "Originally, my father sent me to Youzhou because he also took a fancy to my eloquent talent. This Wuhuan reinforcement was just a surprise. I haven't gone back to Yecheng to tell my father, so I'll come to my second brother to be happy together. ”

Yuan Xi touched his nose and said, "Oh? I didn't feel anything happy. ”

Yuan Shangdao: "Don't, the eldest brother is fighting in Qingzhou, the younger brother is going to Youzhou, and the second brother is immersed in military training in the barracks, everyone is working for their father, and the credit is not high." I see that the second brother has also suffered and tanned a lot. I haven't been home for so long, so I guess I miss my sister-in-law too. Don't worry, I'll give you peace when I go back. ”

He didn't say anything, as soon as he talked about Zhen Ji, who Yuan Xi had coveted for a long time, the fire that he had suddenly suppressed after drinking the tiger whip soup stirred up again.

Yuan Xi snorted.

Yuan Shang saw that his face sank, and he shrank back for no reason. I haven't seen him for a few days, and Yuan Xi seems to be a little more murderous. When he teased his second brother, he was kicked in the ass by Yuan Xi, and it took several days to recover, but he remembered it deeply.

"Second brother, the younger brother has to go to his father to report quickly...... I won't linger and say goodbye. He bowed his hand to Koji again, and Koji arched his hand perfunctorily and continued to eat mutton.

"Sister-in-law, the younger brother must take care of the second brother......"

Seeing Yuan Xi stand up suddenly, Yuan Shang hurriedly ran out of the camp tent.

"Get out!"

Yuan Xi sat back down abruptly.

While chewing the meat, Koji Yi muttered: "Alas, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, it seems that the relationship between you and your brother is ...... Not bad either. ”

Yuan Xi touched his belly, unceremoniously ripped off a sheep's hoof, and ate it.

"General, do you have a younger brother?"

Koji Yi recalled for a moment and said: "My Xiping Koji clan is a big family, but I am the only one in this branch, I heard that I had a younger brother when I was very young, and then he died of a serious disease. Anyway, I'm not impressed. There are a few cousins and cousins, I heard that they don't mix well in Liangzhou, and they were served by Zhang Ji's nephew a few years ago. ”

"I heard that the general didn't have a wife either?"

Koji Yi said: "I'm used to fighting on the battlefield, and I sleep in the barracks all year round, how can I have time to find a woman?" Usually if you have a need, go to Yecheng to mess with this woman and solve it. ”

Yuan Xi said: "The general is chic...... You might as well find it first, and then wait for the world to be peaceful, you can return to the field, and you can also make the child happy. ”

Koji Yi sighed heavily: "I'm afraid there is no chance, good boy horse leather shroud, a martial artist like us, in this world, will die on the battlefield after all." has no wife and children, but is relaxed. ”

Yuan Xi looked at the fire rising in the camp tent and was distracted.
